00:00:00.000 Thank you.
00:00:30.000 Pam Bondi has announced charges against New York State and Letitia James and their governor over their protection and prioritization of illegal immigrants, saying it is a new DOJ.
00:00:42.000 Now, they're calling it charges, but then they're also saying it's a lawsuit in the press.
00:00:46.000 So I don't know how serious this will be.
00:00:49.000 It doesn't sound like actual criminal charges, but nonetheless, moves are being made.
00:00:53.000 So we'll jump into that one.
00:00:55.000 It's a big story.
00:00:56.000 Then, of course, we have the judge that blocked Trump's freeze on those buyouts.
00:01:01.000 He's backtracking, saying, you know what?
00:01:03.000 Any of these employees who are aggrieved, you can just file a grievance.
00:01:07.000 And he's backing away from it.
00:01:08.000 And then, probably my favorite story of the day, Google searches in the D.C. area for criminal lawyers.
00:01:17.000 It's three times the national average and the highest in the country.
00:01:21.000 So how about that?
00:01:22.000 And then we do have another funny story.
00:01:24.000 Politico now admitting that Democrats had been lying about the economy the whole time.
00:01:28.000 And get this, unemployment is effectively 24%.
00:01:31.000 And you know why they're saying it?
00:01:33.000 Because you're getting these Democrats coming out going, what's going on, Trump?
00:01:37.000 Why is the economy so bad?
00:01:38.000 I thought you were going to fix it.
00:01:39.000 And it's like, yo, it's been three weeks.
00:01:41.000 Like, it's been three weeks.
00:01:43.000 This is your economy.
00:01:44.000 This is what Biden was doing before.
00:01:46.000 They say everything's fine.
00:01:47.000 The economy is great.
00:01:48.000 Now that Trump is president, they come out and say, actually, unemployment's really 24%.
00:01:53.000 What's going on, Trump?
00:01:55.000 Yeah.
00:01:55.000 So we're going to get into all that stuff.
00:01:57.000 Before we do, my friends, head over to castbrew.com.
00:01:59.000 Buy castbrew coffee.
00:02:00.000 It's delicious coffee.
00:02:02.000 Everybody agrees.
00:02:02.000 Ian's graphene dream.
00:02:04.000 I shouldn't even mention it.
00:02:05.000 I should stop promoting it.
00:02:06.000 We sell too much.
00:02:07.000 Ian, you're selling too much coffee.
00:02:08.000 What are you going to do, man?
00:02:08.000 Too much.
00:02:09.000 Unstoppable force.
00:02:10.000 Unstoppable force, indeed.
00:02:11.000 But we do have others.
00:02:13.000 Stand Your Grounds is a delicious medium roast.
00:02:16.000 Come on.
00:02:16.000 You guys should try Stand Your Grounds over at castbrew.com.
00:02:19.000 You should really get graphene dream.
00:02:21.000 It's low acidity.
00:02:22.000 It is.
00:02:23.000 And I think that's why people are buying it.
00:02:25.000 A lot of people say they work out the exercise, they don't want to get their stomachs upset, and they instantly go for it.
00:02:29.000 So that's very cool, I guess.
00:02:31.000 Ian sells a lot of coffee.
00:02:32.000 It's available in Whole Bean.
00:02:33.000 It's noticeably less...
00:02:36.000 Offensive, I guess.
00:02:37.000 It's nice.
00:02:38.000 It's very nice.
00:02:38.000 How about that?

00:03:41.000 Hey, I'm excited to be back on.
00:03:43.000 It's been a minute since we were streaming in Nashville, and I learned a little bit of tech decking already, so I'm excited to be back.
00:03:48.000 We've got some good topics.
00:03:49.000 Who are you?
00:03:50.000 What do you do?
00:03:50.000 Hi, I'm Debra, in case you guys didn't know.
00:03:52.000 We've all streamed together before.
00:03:53.000 I'm from New York.
00:03:54.000 Most notably, I do a lot of media hits, political commentary on the news, and specifically a lot within the conservative space, the Israel space.
00:04:02.000 Just all good things around.
00:04:04.000 Well, right on.
00:04:05.000 Thanks for hanging out.
00:04:05.000 We got Ian hanging out.
00:04:06.000 Everybody?
00:04:07.000 Ian Crossland.
00:04:08.000 And I know the economy is getting better because on January 20th, the day Trump was inaugurated, my credit went up by 84 points.
00:04:15.000 I still haven't dug into why, but I think that they did something where they're like, we just want people to take out loans.
00:04:20.000 We want to generate this economy.
00:04:22.000 But my credit was like up five points, down five points.
00:04:25.000 January 20th, it went up by 84. So I don't know what's going on, but I get a great loan now, apparently.
00:04:30.000 Thank you, President Trump.
00:04:31.000 Thank you, President Trump, for increasing my credit score, if that's what you did.
00:04:35.000 I don't know what the hell's going on.
00:04:37.000 Hi, Phil.
00:04:39.000 My name's Phil Labonte.
00:04:41.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band.
00:04:42.000 All that remains, I'm an anti-communist and counter-revolutionary.
00:04:45.000 Please, let's go.
00:04:45.000 Here's a story from Newsweek.
00:04:47.000 Ladies and gentlemen, Pam Bondi announces charges against New York over immigration.
00:04:53.000 You're next.
00:04:54.000 Let me just play the video for you guys.
00:04:56.000 We got it right here.
00:04:56.000 We got it in full.
00:04:57.000 It's only 30 seconds long.
00:04:58.000 Take a listen.
00:04:59.000 We're here today because we have filed charges against the state of New York.
00:05:04.000 We have filed charges against Kathy Hochul.
00:05:06.000 We have filed charges against Leticia James and Mark Schroeder, who is with DMV. This is a new DOJ, and we are...
00:05:16.000 Taking steps to protect Americans, American citizens, and angel moms, like the mom standing right behind me, who you're going to hear from in a moment.
00:05:27.000 New York has chosen to prioritize illegal aliens over American citizens.
00:05:33.000 It stops.
00:05:34.000 It stops today.
00:05:36.000 Well, there we go, ladies and gentlemen.
00:05:38.000 Now, Newsweek says this.
00:05:40.000 They announced charges against Kathy Hochul, Letitia James, both Democrats, for allegedly failing to enforce federal immigration laws.
00:05:47.000 The lawsuit was also filed against Mark Schroeder, the head of the DMV. President Trump was elected off the back of a campaign focused on illegal immigration, etc.
00:05:57.000 They say last week the U.S. government filed a lawsuit against the state of Illinois.
00:06:00.000 The city of Chicago and Cook County in federal court saying that their sanctuary city laws obstruct Trump's immigration enforcement policies.
00:06:07.000 Bondi's announcement that New York was next focused on state-level leadership, rather than New York City specifically, despite the metropolitan area taking most new arrivals during the so-called border crisis.
00:06:19.000 So I'm curious what the suit is actually going to mean.
00:06:24.000 They say Bondi's argument against New York and the DMV, which allows illegal immigrants without legal status to obtain driver's license, they say does not include their immigration status in the document and offers protections for immigrants from discrimination, blah, blah, blah.
00:06:37.000 Yet they're still offering services that are supposed to go to American people to non-citizens.
00:06:41.000 It's just a lawsuit.
00:06:42.000 I guess the remedy would be to make them stop.
00:06:45.000 I would like to see actual criminal charges where they perp-walk these people, but perhaps we're not there yet.
00:06:50.000 I don't know if we'll ever be.
00:06:51.000 What do you guys think?
00:06:52.000 As a New Yorker, I'm very happy about this.
00:06:54.000 Kathy Hochul has been the worst thing to happen to the city.
00:06:57.000 I'm born and raised there.
00:06:58.000 It has never been more unsafe.
00:06:59.000 All the hotels are filled with migrants while there are still veterans on the side of the road.
00:07:03.000 I pay taxes in New York.
00:07:04.000 It is so offensive that my money is going to be used to house, as they say, migrants, people who illegally came into this country over people who fought and served this country, but specifically the hotels that they've been putting them up in.
00:07:15.000 It was originally for the homeless folks in lockdowns.
00:07:18.000 The government was paying these hotels to house all these homeless people.
00:07:21.000 They're like, it's not safe for them on the streets.
00:07:22.000 And then the hotels realized it's more profitable for them to just charge the federal government for housing, for food and everything.
00:07:29.000 And so then they started taking in all the illegal immigrants.
00:07:31.000 And I don't know if it's related to this lawsuit, but Kristi Noem already recouped, I believe it was 49 or 59 million dollars from FEMA that was supposed to be used for New York for illegal immigrants.
00:07:41.000 They took it back.
00:07:42.000 They said it's not being used properly.
00:07:43.000 So I'm glad that something will change because the city has never felt so unsafe.
00:07:48.000 Last year, families would pop up on every single corner.
00:07:50.000 Whole new families, brand new Jordans, gold watches, gold rings, holding signs saying, I need money for my family.
00:07:57.000 And it's just offensive when we're all working so hard to live well in New York.
00:08:00.000 Get a job, come here legally, or else.
00:08:02.000 This Kathy Hochul thing is weird.
00:08:04.000 She didn't get...
00:08:05.000 Correct me if I'm wrong.
00:08:06.000 Nobody voted for her.
00:08:08.000 The first time.
00:08:08.000 Yeah.
00:08:09.000 She didn't get voted.
00:08:10.000 She got appointed in the first time after, was it Cuomo, stepped down, and then they just, is that normal for them just to put somebody, whoever they want in?
00:08:18.000 She was lieutenant governor.
00:08:18.000 Okay.
00:08:19.000 And so when he steps down, she steps up, and then when the election happens, she won.
00:08:22.000 Yeah.
00:08:23.000 But I gotta be honest, I don't think any of these people actually won elections.
00:08:25.000 Like, the idea that someone like Nancy Pelosi voted election, like, yeah, sorry, nice try.
00:08:30.000 Nancy Pelosi's own words.
00:08:32.000 She held up a glass of water and said, This glass of water would win in my or AOC's district if you put a D on it.
00:08:39.000 That's right.
00:08:39.000 The people in these places, they're not thinking at all.
00:08:43.000 They're not thinking.
00:08:44.000 You know, Allison was asking me earlier.
00:08:45.000 She was like, why is anybody mad about what Elon is doing with the Doge stuff?
00:08:49.000 A lot of it's because they don't know what he's doing, and they're confused, and they're being led around by a carrot.
00:08:53.000 That's what I said.
00:08:53.000 I said, no one's mad about it.
00:08:55.000 And she goes, yeah, I see people who are mad.
00:08:57.000 I'm like, no, no, no, no.
00:08:57.000 The people who know what Elon is doing are happy about it.
00:09:00.000 And she was like...
00:09:01.000 Right, because I am.
00:09:02.000 I'm excited.
00:09:03.000 It's like, oh, he's cutting out all this garbage.
00:09:04.000 The people who don't like Elon, who are standing in that – there's that viral video we have on Timcast News where they're singing, which side are you on?
00:09:11.000 Those people have no idea what's going on.
00:09:13.000 All they know is – You know, Emerald Man Bat or whatever.
00:09:16.000 I don't know.
00:09:17.000 Tesla Man Bat.
00:09:17.000 There you go.
00:09:18.000 Mars Man Bat.
00:09:19.000 Congress had a Marjorie Taylor Greene-led, like, I guess you would call it, where they pulled in a bunch of Doge employees or something and they grilled them for two hours.
00:09:26.000 And even Jasmine Crockett, who's, you know, can be vocally a little aggressive sometimes about things, was like, by the end of the talk, was like, thank you.
00:09:34.000 For doing this legit.
00:09:36.000 We do want to get waste out of government.
00:09:38.000 So I think it's hard to really be angry with what Doge is doing if you understand what Doge is doing.
00:09:43.000 They're not making the final decisions.
00:09:45.000 They're just displaying information for people.
00:09:47.000 The people that are most vocal about being upset with Doge, those people are committed Democrats and they're ideologues, right?
00:09:56.000 They're not mad because they have a substantive disagreement with getting rid of waste.
00:10:03.000 Because if it was Democrats that were actually trying to get rid of waste, or Democrats say going after, just for an example, going after the Pentagon, right?
00:10:11.000 That's something the Democrats generally are comfortable with saying.
00:10:14.000 We've got to cut the military.
00:10:15.000 We want to have fewer wars, blah, blah, blah.
00:10:17.000 If they were making these cuts to the military, we'd be perfectly fine with it.
00:10:21.000 The Democrats say that this is a problem, and the people that are Democrat operatives and ideologically captured, those people fall in line.
00:10:30.000 But it's not that...
00:10:32.000 The average person thinks this is a bad thing.
00:10:34.000 The average person is extremely aware that there is tons of waste, tons of abuse, tons of people that are, many, many people that are living on exorbitant salaries, that are using things like USAID to fund all sorts of BS projects to siphon money to their own personal bank accounts.
00:10:57.000 I know that...
00:10:59.000 Today, I read something where Musk was going to start going, looking into Congress people that make like 200 grand a year, that when they start in Congress, they're worth, you know, a million or whatever.
00:11:12.000 And then in a few years, they're worth 20 or 30 million.
00:11:15.000 Specifically, Elizabeth Warren was mentioned.
00:11:17.000 But I think that that's a great thing.
00:11:19.000 I love the idea.
00:11:20.000 He's talking about all bureaucrats.
00:11:22.000 Yeah, 100%.
00:11:23.000 Because what came up was, I think it was the one who was in charge at USAID. I think they were like, hey, she got paid $200,000 a year and she's worth like $100 million.
00:11:33.000 I don't know the exact numbers, but they were like, this administrative clerk is worth how much?
00:11:40.000 Nine, ten figures off of what?
00:11:43.000 Something doesn't add up.
00:11:44.000 Now, the Congress thing, we actually can easily track.
00:11:46.000 That's easy.
00:11:47.000 You take a look at a member of Congress and you track their stock portfolio and you're like, hey, that's really weird that that member of Congress on like, I don't know, the...
00:11:55.000 It's an intelligence committee or whatever.
00:11:57.000 Just made a big investment in that Intel security company based in, you know, insert country.
00:12:02.000 And then a week later they announced the U.S. has secured a, you know, this company has secured a contract with the United States.
00:12:07.000 And it's insider trading to the most extreme degree.
00:12:12.000 Let me put it this way without getting too personal.
00:12:14.000 If you are an individual and you are working on a contract deal, let's say a football player or something, I don't know.
00:12:20.000 No, how about this?
00:12:22.000 Pfizer.
00:12:23.000 If you are about to get hired, Let's say you're a big celebrity and they say, we want you to endorse the brand.
00:12:28.000 If you run out the door and go buy a ton of their stock and then agree to it, you're going to get in trouble.
00:12:33.000 Insider trading.
00:12:35.000 You knew in advance that something big was going to happen, that you were privy to insider access, and it's insider trading.
00:12:41.000 When Congress does it, it's fine.
00:12:44.000 Nobody cares.
00:12:45.000 They know for a fact that they're either passing laws or making fake laws.
00:12:49.000 I'll tell you how members of Congress make money.
00:12:51.000 They actually will introduce a fake bill.
00:12:54.000 To shock the price of a company, buy it up, and then the bill fails.
00:13:00.000 Or, yep, yep, it gets better.
00:13:02.000 They'll buy shorts.
00:13:04.000 They'll short a stock, introduce a bill or sponsor a bill, or they know the bill is coming.
00:13:08.000 When the bill is announced, let's say there's a company called, like, you know, Big Pharma, right?
00:13:13.000 Someone will, they'll put shorts on that stock because they know a bill is about to be introduced called the Ban Big Pharma Act.
00:13:20.000 It comes out, people panic, they sell.
00:13:23.000 They defeat the bill.
00:13:24.000 They drop their short position.
00:13:26.000 They make their profit.
00:13:27.000 Then the bill fails, and the stock bounces back up.
00:13:30.000 Usually they're just buying, though.
00:13:31.000 Nancy Pelosi, there was a meme of her on the phone.
00:13:33.000 It's like, sell DEI, buy Doge right now, because she's made her whole career with that.
00:13:37.000 But we've had a lot of this government waste, abuse, and fraud in New York with the immigration problem since before Doge came around or Elon Musk or anything.
00:13:45.000 Mayor Adams, who...
00:13:46.000 I'm more fond of than other Democrat leaders, but he gave a no-bid contract to DOTGO. I believe it was either $492 or $497 million to house, feed, and completely take care of illegal immigrants in New York.
00:13:58.000 A report that came back like two months ago, maybe less, said that basically 90% of that money was wasted.
00:14:03.000 They charged $120,000 in sales tax for foods when they were exempt from sales tax because they were operating on the federal government's behalf.
00:14:12.000 Like, this has been going on.
00:14:14.000 For so long in New York, with the amount that I pay in taxes to see how gross the city is, where does my money go?
00:14:19.000 That kind of stuff, I have a significant problem, a significantly larger problem with than insider trading.
00:14:25.000 That should be illegal.
00:14:26.000 There should be something done about insider trading.
00:14:27.000 But really, the insider trading doesn't hurt the American people, right?
00:14:33.000 It's bad.
00:14:35.000 It's dishonest.
00:14:36.000 It's corrupt.
00:14:38.000 But it doesn't...
00:14:39.000 Take away from the people that pay taxes.
00:14:42.000 It doesn't take from the government.
00:14:43.000 You know, the government doesn't print money to give to the people that are investing in these companies and stuff.
00:14:51.000 Insider trading is just, you know, you get inside information about a stock, about legislation that's going to pass, and you capitalize on it.
00:14:57.000 Sure.
00:14:58.000 It's corruption at that.
00:14:59.000 But when the problem that I have is things like we've found out with USAID where they're funding something, they're paying money to some silly thing, and that money somehow ends up in some bureaucrat's pocket or goes back to some industry insider or whatever.
00:15:17.000 They're literally just printing the money to give away to private interests.
00:15:23.000 It's the worst kind of corruption because they're just Printing the money to give back to people that they like.
00:15:30.000 I gotta talk about these sanctuary cities for a second.
00:15:33.000 Get your guys' opinion on...
00:15:34.000 Because normally, I'm of the opinion of states.
00:15:38.000 States' rights.
00:15:39.000 Feds, don't tread on me.
00:15:40.000 Back off.
00:15:41.000 Get out of my state.
00:15:42.000 Let me govern how I want to govern my state.
00:15:44.000 If California wants to legalize marijuana, I don't want the DEA kicking the door down because of some stupid federal law.
00:15:50.000 Let the different states have their different laws.
00:15:52.000 But sometimes...
00:15:54.000 The thing is, I agree with removing the illegal immigrants as rough as it can be.
00:15:59.000 I think it's a good move.
00:16:00.000 But I still value states' rights.
00:16:02.000 Why are you shaking your head, Phil?
00:16:03.000 Because it's because the constitutionally, the constitution gives the power to the federal government to take care of immigration.
00:16:10.000 States don't have that authority.
00:16:11.000 So I understand your point about states rights in the 10th Amendment, but there's a specific enumerated power granted to the federal government in the constitution.
00:16:20.000 In fact, when Texas was dealing with the illegal immigration and they came out and said, we aren't allowed to enforce the border or deport because of the constitution.
00:16:29.000 That's why Texas said, then we're going to send them to the Democrat states, see how they like it.
00:16:34.000 Meanwhile, California then says to the federal government, We're actually not going to let you even enforce immigration.
00:16:39.000 And therein lies the problem.
00:16:42.000 Lone Star in Texas, where they've been spending millions of dollars, independent organizations.
00:16:45.000 I had the privilege of touring the border earlier this year.
00:16:48.000 They're spending millions of dollars on their own to catch, detain, and deport the illegal immigrants that are coming into Texas.
00:16:54.000 And I asked them, the sheriff, I was like...
00:16:56.000 Are you going to get that money back?
00:16:58.000 And they're working now to try and sue the federal government to get reimbursed because the federal government's failing to protect their citizens on the border.
00:17:04.000 On principle, I agree with you.
00:17:06.000 And when it comes to the Tenth Amendment and when it comes to states' rights, I do agree with you.
00:17:09.000 But when it comes to certain specific things that are enumerated in the Constitution and that are specifically reserved to the federal government, those things should be...
00:17:20.000 It's correct for the federal government to have a primacy over that.
00:17:26.000 There's what they call the Supremacy Clause.
00:17:29.000 Things that are in the Constitution that are given to the federal government take supremacy over any federal thing.
00:17:35.000 So anything in the Bill of Rights, those are supposed to supersede any state.
00:17:40.000 Any state legislation.
00:17:42.000 Because they're in the Bill of Rights and they're in the Constitution.
00:17:44.000 And then, of course, you have the 9th and 10th Amendments, which specifically state that if it's not given to the federal government, then the states can deal with it.
00:17:50.000 So there is an argument over how the Supremacy Clause will play out with things like you mentioned, marijuana in California.
00:17:56.000 And largely, the states just do what they want.
00:17:58.000 But immigration is specifically the federal government.
00:18:01.000 Yeah, because there's no, just like Tim said, there's no federal, there's no law in this Constitution that gives the federal government the right...
00:18:10.000 To regulate marijuana.
00:18:11.000 What about like alcohol and firearms?
00:18:13.000 ATF, for instance.
00:18:14.000 So the ATF is unconstitutional on its face.
00:18:18.000 And when it comes to alcohol, we already tried.
00:18:20.000 We had an amendment that gave the federal government the power to prohibit, this is prohibition, prohibit the production and sale of alcohol.
00:18:29.000 And it was such a terrible idea and such a disaster, we made another amendment to repeal that law.
00:18:35.000 And that was kind of the last time they changed the...
00:18:38.000 The Constitution in order to grant the federal government a power to do something because it's so hard.
00:18:43.000 So now they do things like they abuse the Commerce Clause and abuse the Necessary and Proper Clauses, which the Commerce Clause says that the federal government has the authority to make regular, to regulate the commerce between the several states.
00:18:56.000 And the Necessary and Proper Clause says that the Congress has, the federal government has the power to pass all laws necessary and proper to execute said...
00:19:05.000 So let's jump to this next story from the New York Sun.
00:19:08.000 Google searches for criminal defense lawyers surge.
00:19:12.000 I like how they put at Washington, D.C. That seems a strange way to write the words.
00:19:16.000 With Trump in the White House, search results for defense attorneys are roughly five times higher.
00:19:20.000 Oh, I thought it was three.
00:19:21.000 Five times higher in America's capital than anywhere else in the country.
00:19:26.000 So the story, okay, well, we don't have it pulled up, but they basically reference this dude, Mark, from Rasmussen, who checked the search and found that Washington, D.C., as of this past month, has spiked to the highest in the nation.
00:19:42.000 I'm going to go ahead and make a guess that this may have to do with people filing fraudulent invoices to USAID and the Treasury Department knowing it was going to get cashed out and them thinking no one was ever going to look or notice.
00:20:00.000 And now the reason they're searching, I'm just speculating, the reason why they're searching for attorneys is because they're calling them on the phone and saying, I've been invoicing the government for a year, and I haven't been doing anything.
00:20:11.000 What's my criminal exposure here?
00:20:14.000 The reason why I think this is largely people calling to ask whether or not they may have broken the law is that they've not filed charges against anybody over this stuff.
00:20:22.000 But Trump has come out saying we have found fraud, and a lot of it.
00:20:27.000 So I can only imagine that these people who are in Loudoun County, for instance, who have been invoicing the federal government for who knows what, because we've seen some of the stuff that's come out.
00:20:36.000 They must be sweating bullets right now concerned that Trump's not going to tolerate what they've been doing.
00:20:42.000 It's a very compassionate take on it.
00:20:43.000 Honestly, I was thinking that these people are so narcissistic.
00:20:46.000 They think the world's about them.
00:20:48.000 The world's out to get them.
00:20:49.000 They think Donald Trump gets into office day one, spends all day long looking up, who am I going to attack?
00:20:53.000 Who am I going to charge?
00:20:54.000 Who am I going to go after?
00:20:55.000 When really, he's saving the world.
00:20:56.000 He's saving the country.
00:20:57.000 he's the most aggressive in the best way possible, like the most proactive president that we have ever had.
00:21:03.000 We always say like the first 100 days of a presidency.
00:21:05.000 I think Trump has dropped that down now to the first 30 days of a presidency to compare how much a president has done.
00:21:11.000 And I think these people are just so paranoid.
00:21:13.000 They think the world revolves around them.
00:21:14.000 They're going to come after me.
00:21:15.000 Nobody cares about you that much.
00:21:17.000 We have found fraud.
00:21:19.000 I think that is a very compassionate idea that they're trying to figure it out.
00:21:22.000 But I really think that these people are just luring up because they think they're that important that Trump is going to take the time to individually go after them.
00:21:28.000 Nobody cares about you that much.
00:21:30.000 But they might go after him.
00:21:32.000 I think he has bigger things.
00:21:33.000 I think there was an interview.
00:21:34.000 I don't want to incorrectly quote Trump, but they asked him, like, are you going to go after your opponents?
00:21:41.000 He's like, eh.
00:21:41.000 These are not opponents, though.
00:21:42.000 Yeah.
00:21:43.000 These are NGOs.
00:21:44.000 I guess people...
00:21:45.000 Yeah, this is going to be like a 47-year-old guy who's got a mansion in McLean, and he's been invoicing the government for $10 million a year off his fake nonprofit.
00:21:54.000 And he's like, I can't justify these expenses.
00:21:56.000 What do I do?
00:21:57.000 No one's supposed to be looking into it.
00:21:59.000 They've just been paying me.
00:22:00.000 I guarantee you there's a bunch of people who have been getting paid by the government who are like, I don't know, they just kept paying me.
00:22:04.000 I mean, all the buildings are empty, but I think just on the laundry list of people that are important, we have gang members in this country that have come in over the last few years with illegal immigration.
00:22:12.000 We have a lot of criminals in New York specifically who haven't been arrested.
00:22:15.000 I think that just on the laundry list of who to go after, they're a bit lower.
00:22:19.000 Totally disagree.
00:22:20.000 Not in my view of what they should be, just in what our government's going to go after.
00:22:23.000 If we could go after all at once, I'd love that.
00:22:25.000 It's the most dangerous, the biggest threat to this country right now.
00:22:29.000 Are the bureaucratic, deep state, NGO Democrat operatives who live in and around Washington, D.C., who stand to lose hundreds of millions or billions of dollars from what Trump is doing.
00:22:40.000 The gang members hurt and kill people, and it's bad.
00:22:43.000 We've got to stop them.
00:22:44.000 But the people in and around D.C. want those people to stay there and have the means and the resources to wage legal lawfare against Donald Trump and stop him from being able to do these things.
00:22:59.000 And the DOJ have to go after the most powerful administrative element.
00:23:03.000 Trump wants to fire everybody.
00:23:05.000 What happens?
00:23:05.000 The Democrats file lawsuits and then these activist judges block him.
00:23:09.000 That's why they're going after USAID right now.
00:23:12.000 Trump's biggest priority actually doesn't appear to be immigration.
00:23:15.000 Certainly, it's a large priority.
00:23:17.000 Certainly, he said he wants the number to go up.
00:23:18.000 But he just pulled the big guns on Doge and sent them into Department of Education and to USAID. And they gutted USAID almost first thing.
00:23:27.000 Immigration numbers, deportation numbers are currently low, relative, and this is what Trump's saying, yet we've shut down entire departments.
00:23:35.000 Trump knows the deep state bureaucrats will stop him if he doesn't stop them first.
00:23:41.000 Yeah, I mean, I do think that the administration should do what it can do to go after people that have violated the law.
00:23:53.000 I don't think that this shouldn't be something that's, like, it shouldn't be controversial.
00:23:59.000 If someone's broken the law or someone's, you know, if they're abusing the system, there's no reason why the DOJ shouldn't go after it.
00:24:08.000 I quote Mike Benz a lot because he's so prolific on this whole...
00:24:12.000 USAID, deep state, international, corruptive internet censorship is like, why are we being censored?
00:24:18.000 It led him through this maze.
00:24:20.000 And he's like, what we're doing right now is we are performing open heart surgery on the American empire.
00:24:25.000 And I don't want, it's very possible that the patient will die on the table.
00:24:29.000 We don't want that because empire has enabled us to have cheap gas, affordable housing, but it's really about creating transparency and doing it right.
00:24:38.000 In a lot of ways, doing the dirty work right.
00:24:42.000 So indiscriminately targeting and arresting everyone that's ever done any corruption might not be the best thing for the health of the country.
00:24:49.000 Why?
00:24:51.000 If you don't understand the organism that you're working on and you take it all away right away, it might kill something.
00:24:56.000 You've got to be careful with the reconstruction of it.
00:24:59.000 That's not really an answer.
00:25:00.000 Why do you think that it's a bad idea to go after people that have violated the law?
00:25:05.000 Indiscriminately?
00:25:07.000 What does that mean?
00:25:09.000 Because I don't think that the law is always the best guide of morality in life.
00:25:13.000 Sometimes things are made illegal when they're right.
00:25:16.000 Hold on.
00:25:16.000 You're saying that the administrative state...
00:25:19.000 That has been, I don't know, wrongly imprisoning people, torturing them, propping up criminals, maintaining a multi-generational fake puppet government.
00:25:29.000 We should just ignore that.
00:25:31.000 No, no, no.
00:25:32.000 A huge problem.
00:25:32.000 But like Deborah mentioned, we don't have infinite resources and we do need to be discriminated about how we approach.
00:25:37.000 But I think you're right.
00:25:39.000 If we don't, we, I say.
00:25:40.000 But if it's not like what JFK didn't...
00:25:43.000 Subvert the opponent, and the opponent had him off, as far as we can tell.
00:25:46.000 You know, Ron Paul said the CIA killed Kennedy.
00:25:48.000 I tend to believe him.
00:25:50.000 I think Paulina Luna just mentioned there were two shooters.
00:25:53.000 I think Ian works for the CIA. My whole life, dude.
00:25:56.000 Because whenever there's an issue of it's like, hey, we've just uncovered gross malfeasance, Ian goes, we should let him go.
00:26:02.000 And we're like, what?
00:26:04.000 We should pardon Hillary Clinton.
00:26:06.000 I play subversion.
00:26:07.000 You did say pardon Hillary.
00:26:08.000 Of course.
00:26:09.000 You think we should pardon Hillary?
00:26:11.000 Blanket pardons, dude.
00:26:12.000 He does kind of look like Chelsea, doesn't he?
00:26:14.000 Let's just move forward as a union, man.
00:26:17.000 Someone's got to say it out loud.
00:26:18.000 I got my eye on you, Ian.
00:26:20.000 It's a long game, but I do think that moving quickly is important.
00:26:26.000 I don't know.
00:26:27.000 You know, I don't even know what we're even talking about right now.
00:26:29.000 Like, who are we talking about?
00:26:30.000 What are we talking about?
00:26:31.000 We're talking about fake nonprofits, think tanks, and individuals who have been invoicing the federal government falsely, knowing they're not actually doing any work, and they're buying mansions from it.
00:26:42.000 And now the presumption is they're panicking and calling up lawyers being like, am I going to go to prison for this?
00:26:48.000 And Donald Trump has gutted USAID, and he said we're looking for fraud.
00:26:52.000 Fraud is a felony.
00:26:53.000 And what happens when they uncover large amounts of people who have been sending in invoices to the federal government despite not doing any work?
00:27:01.000 Elon Musk pointed out, real quick, that the Treasury Department was instructed to pay out all invoices without, just do it, just don't even bother questioning it.
00:27:10.000 And the argument given, or I should say the reason given was the government didn't want to create complaints.
00:27:18.000 It's better to just...
00:27:19.000 Pay it out because our resources are infinite because we'll just raise the debt ceiling and keep cranking up debt.
00:27:25.000 The United States government gets their money by either printing it or pointing guns at people.
00:27:30.000 So for the administrator in an office who gets an invoice, they go, look, I do not want to deal with an angry email my boss yelling at me, and no one's going to complain if I just pay it out.
00:27:40.000 So that's what they were doing, rubber stamping this stuff.
00:27:42.000 There was one story apparently where a single piece of paper requested a billion dollars for no reason.
00:27:48.000 And then someone at the Treasury Department was like, I'm not going to do this one.
00:27:51.000 That's weird.
00:27:52.000 But there were people who were apparently invoicing or charging and requesting and getting grants for tens of millions of dollars despite doing literally nothing.
00:28:01.000 In fact, Seamus has this really great cartoon, Freedom Tunes, where Elon is uncovering, in one instance, he's like, 1,000 crates of smarties for Iraqi slumber parties?
00:28:12.000 What is going on with this?
00:28:14.000 You've got to watch this cartoon.
00:28:15.000 The rhyme was the best.
00:28:16.000 The rhyming was the best.
00:28:17.000 The point was, When we look at how the money was being spent, the truth is when they say $47,000 for a gender puppet play in Peru or whatever it was, that's not really where the money was going.
00:28:30.000 It's going to be some NGO in the D.C. area where a guy says we liaise with people in Peru to do gender puppet shows.
00:28:37.000 Send me 50 grand.
00:28:38.000 So now that Trump is looking for the fraud, they're going to start bringing a microscope to these people and they're going to say, yeah, we see you see you invoiced us for.
00:28:47.000 Consulting, you haven't shown up to the office in a year.
00:28:50.000 And they're going to go, oh, well, no one said I shouldn't.
00:28:54.000 And they're going to be like, fraud doesn't work that way.
00:28:56.000 I think I'm curious what you guys think.
00:28:58.000 I think it's very interesting with Trump being Trump and second term now that he's prioritizing this because out of all the things that he could do, like going after crime first, or I guess with the economy, this might have a long-term effect on the economy, cutting down fraudulent waste and spending.
00:29:13.000 It might have a...
00:29:14.000 Delayed boom.
00:29:15.000 But I'm very interested why, what you guys think, why he's starting with this, because I feel like out of all the things, this is extremely important to get rid of fraudulent people who are abusing the federal government, especially when we're giving like $600 to Maui victims and North Carolina victims.
00:29:28.000 But it's not going to have a direct return to actual Americans.
00:29:31.000 Like, that's great that we cut $20 million, but how am I going to feel that as a regular citizen?
00:29:36.000 Where does that $20 million go?
00:29:37.000 To the federal budget.
00:29:39.000 No, when $20 million goes to the Loudoun County NGOs, lobbyists, think tanks, that goes in the pockets of Democrats and neocons who are going to try to stop Donald Trump.
00:29:48.000 It goes into the campaign coffers of politicians who are going to try to unseat Republicans who will defend Trump.
00:29:53.000 It's going to go directly into the midterms where they prop up squishy Republicans who say, I guess we have to impeach Trump this time.
00:30:00.000 If Trump does not take action and cut the resources off to the administrative state.
00:30:05.000 He will be impeached in two years.
00:30:06.000 This is a great point.
00:30:07.000 And further, I would take it further.
00:30:10.000 Not only is all the stuff that Tim was saying exactly true, but also these are things that the American people hate.
00:30:19.000 It's easy, low-hanging fruit.
00:30:21.000 So it actually does two things.
00:30:22.000 It makes the American people feel good about...
00:30:26.000 Doge and what they're doing and the things that Donald Trump is doing because Donald Trump promised to do this stuff.
00:30:32.000 So he's fulfilling campaign promises.
00:30:35.000 He's protecting himself and other Republicans when it comes to the midterms.
00:30:39.000 And he's getting rid of waste, fraud and abuse that almost every normal American agrees.
00:30:44.000 Yes, these are bad things.
00:30:45.000 So it's it's it.
00:30:47.000 You're right.
00:30:48.000 It's not something.
00:30:49.000 And I talk about this a lot because it's not mandatory spending.
00:30:51.000 It's not.
00:30:52.000 Social Security.
00:30:53.000 It's not Medicare or Medicaid.
00:30:54.000 It's not stuff that's going to really move the needle when it comes to the actual national...
00:30:57.000 To the national debt.
00:30:59.000 But it can affect the deficit.
00:31:01.000 And that's something that you can show to people.
00:31:02.000 Look, the deficit's gone from $2 trillion down to $1 trillion.
00:31:05.000 And that's one of the things that Musk has been saying on his...
00:31:08.000 Yeah, he wants to cut it in half.
00:31:10.000 He's like, if we can cut this in half and then grow the government, we can actually get rid of all the inflation.
00:31:15.000 So in one year, there will be no price increases.
00:31:19.000 He was talking about, he's like, imagine going to the grocery store and all the prices are the same next year.
00:31:23.000 If we just cut $1 trillion from the deficit...
00:31:26.000 And we don't deficit spend by two trillion.
00:31:28.000 We only deficit spend by one trillion.
00:31:30.000 And we increase the economic, you know, we cut, we slash regulations, which is in turn going to increase economic activity, which would increase the GDP. Three to five percent, I think you said.
00:31:41.000 Well, we can get rid of the other trillion dollars in our deficit, and you have no deficit for a year, actually balancing the budget.
00:31:49.000 So it's multifaceted.
00:31:53.000 It's a delayed effect.
00:31:54.000 I'm just being in New York and being in Gen Z and on TikTok and stuff, I'm always trying to be aware of, like, the majority of us and the people that we're always surrounded by, we're dialed into politics.
00:32:03.000 We care about it.
00:32:03.000 It matters to us.
00:32:04.000 So we know and we actually care about these things.
00:32:07.000 But I'm always just thinking about, you know, the average American who doesn't have time to ever watch Tim's show or, you know, livestream on Rumble.
00:32:13.000 After hours, members only.
00:32:15.000 And they didn't pay me to say that.
00:32:16.000 But, you know, the majority of people don't know that much.
00:32:19.000 And so I'm thinking of the people that I want to secure for 2026, because we know that that is the most important thing.
00:32:24.000 Now, Trump said on that, because if he doesn't get 2026, or if he loses control of the House and the Senate, he's done, essentially, in terms of like being able to pass things.
00:32:32.000 But the majority of people who are not dialed in, I just am trying to...
00:32:36.000 I was saying that it's interesting that he is so strongly working towards something so important, but that won't have a direct feel for the people that are not dialed into politics.
00:32:45.000 Like, their prices aren't going to go down.
00:32:47.000 It's not solving anything directly.
00:32:49.000 Their taxes aren't going down.
00:32:50.000 So I'm just conscious of that.
00:32:52.000 It might in two years from now or something.
00:32:54.000 I wouldn't even say two years.
00:32:55.000 Like I said, it does take some time from maybe next year.
00:32:58.000 You'd see the results from some of these things.
00:33:01.000 But again, if you can get rid of the deficit...
00:33:03.000 Then you'll get, and if Musk is right, you get rid of the deficit, you can get rid of the inflation, and that leads directly to, it doesn't, you're not going to see prices go down, but it pauses the increase of prices, and it allows wages some time to catch up, because that's the way that it works.
00:33:18.000 Like, inflation happens, everyone suffers, and then over time...
00:33:22.000 Wages catch up.
00:33:24.000 I agree with you, and he has the opportunity now because his approval rating is so high.
00:33:28.000 I think he might know he'll have to bring more direct favorable things if it ever dips down.
00:33:33.000 One of the challenges Trump has is that the average person doesn't understand deep politics, as we were discussing.
00:33:39.000 When he was on the Joe Rogan show, he explicitly stated that we either bring the prices down, which is very difficult, or he mentioned being underleveraged, which I'll simplify as...
00:33:50.000 If the buying power of the dollar increases, then the cost of goods may not go down, but your ability to buy those goods goes up.
00:33:57.000 And that's what really matters.
00:33:58.000 So making prices go down is difficult.
00:34:00.000 You do that by generating energy, making energy more abundant.
00:34:04.000 When energy costs are cheaper, competition will drive prices down.
00:34:08.000 It's really simple.
00:34:10.000 I'm going to arm you guys with this information.
00:34:12.000 I know most of you already know it, but for some of you who don't, the Democrats keep running on this.
00:34:16.000 You can't drop prices.
00:34:17.000 You can't make prices go down.
00:34:18.000 If fuel costs go down, if they're able to produce natural gas, fuel, whatever, frack, for a cheaper price, because labor is cheaper, whatever, if they can deregulate it, what's going to happen is you're going to have market competition.
00:34:34.000 These energy companies are going to say, buy from me, we'll sell it, you know, $80 a barrel.
00:34:38.000 I'll sell it $75 a barrel.
00:34:40.000 Price goes down.
00:34:41.000 Then the shipments are cheaper.
00:34:43.000 When it's cheaper to ship and their margins are healthy, You get two egg producers and one says, hey, buy my eggs for $10.
00:34:52.000 The other guy says, I can reduce my costs because our transportation has gone down.
00:34:57.000 Buy mine for $9.
00:34:58.000 The competition will reduce the prices.
00:35:00.000 That's what we're hoping for.
00:35:01.000 Unless, of course, there's price fixing, which is a crime.
00:35:04.000 Now, Democrats keep lying, saying it's not going to happen.
00:35:06.000 It's not possible.
00:35:07.000 And my favorite thing is it's been three weeks and they're going, hey, Trump, how come you haven't lowered all the prices yet?
00:35:12.000 And it's like, well, he's currently gutting waste, fraud and abuse.
00:35:16.000 And it's been three weeks.
00:35:18.000 We're going to have to work on it, you know?
00:35:19.000 Come on, it's not going to be overnight.
00:35:21.000 Two, I will say this of Trump, he did say, as soon as I'm elected, we're going to see the prices go down.
00:35:27.000 But anybody who actually knows Trump and has known Trump for a decade knows that you've got to take him seriously, but not literally.
00:35:34.000 When Trump said, day one, since I'm elected, the war is over.
00:35:37.000 I was like, maybe, but eventually we're like, well, he's going to have some work cut out for him because of the way Democrats have set this up.
00:35:42.000 When he says, day one, you're going to see the prices drop.
00:35:44.000 We're like, yeah, yeah, we get it, Trump.
00:35:46.000 He's a big talker, but we think he'll probably work on it and he'll do a good job of it.
00:35:51.000 Now they're blaming him for the eggs.
00:35:52.000 Chuck Schumer's like, Mr. Trump, why are the eggs so expensive?
00:35:55.000 What did you do?
00:35:56.000 And we're like, that was your guy who killed all the birds.
00:35:59.000 Like, hello?
00:36:00.000 But, yeah.
00:36:01.000 I do believe.
00:36:03.000 The plan at the end of the Biden administration was to nuke as much as possible so they could blame Trump for it.
00:36:08.000 For sure.
00:36:08.000 Go back and watch our episodes of Tim Castile where we literally said this.
00:36:11.000 They were sabotaging things so that as soon as Trump got in, they'd say, aha, Trump did it.
00:36:15.000 Yeah, and anyone that thinks that that is somehow that, you know, they would never do that.
00:36:20.000 They would never harm the country like that.
00:36:23.000 Just go back and look at the debates between Trump and Biden when Biden said we should surge the border.
00:36:27.000 There should be a surge at the border.
00:36:28.000 He literally told people to come to the country illegally.
00:36:32.000 And just come to the border.
00:36:34.000 That is a massive problem for the country.
00:36:37.000 So the Biden administration and Democrats, more broadly, have zero care about the American people.
00:36:45.000 They don't care about the American people.
00:36:47.000 That's why they wanted illegal immigrants to come into the United States.
00:36:52.000 And we're using the Health and Human Services Department and the Refugee Resettlement Program to ferry those illegal immigrants throughout the country.
00:37:02.000 Particularly to red states to try to turn them purple or turn purple states closer to blue because they were looking to get themselves a consistent and permanent position of power in the government so that way there was no Republican Party that could actually challenge them.
00:37:18.000 I mean, it's nefarious.
00:37:19.000 And it's disgusting.
00:37:20.000 And now that we see Doge and the things that Doge has uncovered, it becomes more clear that that was not just...
00:37:29.000 It wasn't just by happenstance that that was happening.
00:37:32.000 That was an actual plan.
00:37:34.000 Let's jump to this next story from the Daily Wire.
00:37:37.000 Senate confirms Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence.
00:37:42.000 This was absolutely fantastic.
00:37:44.000 Mitch McConnell was furious and he betrayed MAGA and he voted against her despite the fact he voted for Garland and Lloyd Austin.
00:37:52.000 Unreal.
00:37:53.000 It's like, yeah, come on, man.
00:37:54.000 This dude, look, they don't like Tulsi Gabbard because she represents a lot of what we've wanted for a long time sound foreign policy.
00:38:02.000 She's now going to be overseeing all 18 intelligence agencies, including the CIA. And based on everything they said about her, how they lied about her, How they went after her for refusing to toe the line behind the Democratic establishment.
00:38:14.000 This is beautiful.
00:38:16.000 But the big story here is not necessarily just to sit here and talk about how happy we are about Tulsi Gabbard.
00:38:22.000 It's to point out that Democrats are scumbags.
00:38:25.000 You know, look, I'm an opinion guy, right?
00:38:28.000 I'm not a big fan of the Republican Party for the most part.
00:38:31.000 You know, we can rag on Mitch McConnell all day.
00:38:32.000 But Donald Trump took it over and you've got MAGA within the Republican Party.
00:38:36.000 And we kind of like what they're doing.
00:38:37.000 But the Democrats prove themselves time and time again to be—oh, what's the right word?
00:38:45.000 Disloyal is one word.
00:38:46.000 Annoying?
00:38:47.000 Well, annoying is easy, but lacking honor.
00:38:50.000 Lacking honor.
00:38:51.000 They have no honor.
00:38:52.000 They care not for it.
00:38:53.000 Bernie Sanders refuses to vote for Tulsi Gabbard after praising her endorsement of him for president.
00:38:59.000 Bernie represents the Democratic Party perfectly.
00:39:03.000 He initially was a man of principle.
00:39:07.000 You'd see him walking around D.C. He didn't make that much money.
00:39:10.000 You know, he was getting $150,000 a year at the time in Congress.
00:39:12.000 And I remember being in D.C. 13 years ago, 14 years ago with my buddies, and we saw him walking down the street, and we were like, it's Bernie Sanders.
00:39:18.000 And everybody knew the guy.
00:39:20.000 He had mittens?
00:39:21.000 No mittens.
00:39:22.000 It was warm-out.
00:39:23.000 He had been consistent on his policy positions.
00:39:25.000 And then something happened.
00:39:27.000 He had this gym room announcement of president with this crappy little man, I'm going to run for president!
00:39:33.000 And he got a lot of support from progressive young people.
00:39:37.000 And the deep state was none too happy that he was destabilizing the Democratic Party's position.
00:39:42.000 And so he decided he would bend the knee.
00:39:44.000 And what happened?
00:39:45.000 You know, I'm just going to say, perhaps.
00:39:49.000 It's interesting that Bernie bends the knee to the deep state, to the establishment Democrats, and then becomes a millionaire right away.
00:39:57.000 Right away!
00:39:57.000 You know, I sold a book!
00:39:59.000 If you sold a book, you could be rich too and own three houses.
00:40:02.000 So Bernie Sanders represents exactly what the Democratic Party is.
00:40:06.000 For a while, they seem to be of principle, these young activists.
00:40:10.000 The moment you offer them a paycheck, they will turn on a dime.
00:40:15.000 I'd be willing to bet you go to any, any one of these lefty Antifa types and you offer them a six-figure salary, they'll put on a suit in two seconds.
00:40:30.000 They will say, tell me where to stand.
00:40:31.000 If the DNC, if David Hogg walks up to any random Antifa guy and says, you know, you could do a lot of good with the Democratic Party and we can bring your ideas in.
00:40:40.000 How would you like to make a difference?
00:40:41.000 We'll give you $700,000 a year.
00:40:43.000 They'd be like, tell me where to stand.
00:40:46.000 Tell me what to say.
00:40:47.000 Two seconds.
00:40:47.000 Bernie, he was like, how old is he now?
00:40:50.000 80-something?
00:40:51.000 He was 80, I think, when he was running for president.
00:40:53.000 70-something?
00:40:54.000 Maybe he was 70-something.
00:40:55.000 So people, you would think that late in life, you just don't flip.
00:40:59.000 When it's brought, you're like, look, I could have flipped to the other side 20 years ago.
00:41:05.000 I've chosen to live my life righteously.
00:41:08.000 But either they scared him with Donald Trump and just constantly whispering in his ear like worm tongue.
00:41:15.000 And his brain was, his body's too old, his brain's too old to resist it.
00:41:20.000 And he was changed because of fear.
00:41:23.000 Or somebody came in and they threatened him in a way that...
00:41:27.000 We'll never know.
00:41:28.000 It's that simple, bro.
00:41:29.000 Ian, when they come to you and they say, look, you're generating a lot of positive attention, you're building this beautiful campaign, but we are working really hard to defeat Donald Trump and you are actually helping this bad man, so we'll tell you what.
00:41:42.000 For your troubles, we're going to help you publish your book.
00:41:45.000 We're going to connect you with this great agency.
00:41:46.000 You're going to make a million dollars and buy that lake house for your wife.
00:41:48.000 You've always wanted it, don't you?
00:41:50.000 And then Bernie's like, well, I don't know.
00:41:52.000 And then they, as they're saying, no, no, no, I mean, it's great.
00:41:54.000 That we can do this for you.
00:41:55.000 And then they start putting on the gloves and say, you know, of course, if there's something else that you're interested in doing, as they grab the garotte wire and start wrapping around their arms and say, we can always just maybe give you a back massage or you can take the money.
00:42:07.000 And Bernie's like, I'll take the money!
00:42:08.000 I'll take the money!
00:42:09.000 They might have, but I actually think it's more like...
00:42:12.000 They scared him with Trump.
00:42:14.000 They're just like, he's the devil.
00:42:15.000 And Bernie's like, oh, oh, and they say it enough times, and then he just believes it.
00:42:20.000 No way, because Bernie and Trump's policies overlap.
00:42:22.000 I know.
00:42:22.000 You've got to get Bernie and Trump in a room together and have an interview.
00:42:25.000 He knows?
00:42:25.000 No, no, no.
00:42:26.000 That's like the nexus.
00:42:27.000 But Ian, let me say that.
00:42:28.000 Bernie knows this.
00:42:29.000 A populism.
00:42:30.000 Bernie knew this.
00:42:31.000 When, in 2015, when the media was saying that Bernie and Trump overlapped, that was the, that was, this is, I can't believe it's 10 years now.
00:42:39.000 You guys can believe?
00:42:39.000 You were, how old were you?
00:42:41.000 Sixteen.
00:42:42.000 Sixteen.
00:42:42.000 She had no idea what was going on.
00:42:43.000 Couldn't even vote.
00:42:44.000 Playing with Polly Pockets or whatever you kids are doing these days.
00:42:46.000 I say I voted for Trump twice.
00:42:47.000 They're like fake Republican.
00:42:48.000 I was like, I couldn't vote the first time.
00:42:50.000 It's not my fault.
00:42:51.000 I would have.
00:42:52.000 Bernie and Trump didn't have identical policies, but they were talking largely in their campaigns about illegal immigration hurting the working class and wanting to bring factories back to this country.
00:43:04.000 And there were tons of people who were supporting Bernie.
00:43:07.000 And when Bernie got knocked out by the DNC for a variety of reasons, I mean, they basically rigged the whole thing against them.
00:43:13.000 They went to Trump.
00:43:14.000 I've met them.
00:43:15.000 I've interviewed them.
00:43:16.000 The thing is, I described it as there's an ivory tower.
00:43:20.000 Trump and Bernie walked up to each of, there's two doors, you know, front and back door.
00:43:24.000 Bernie walked up and knocked and said, we're here.
00:43:27.000 Let us in.
00:43:28.000 And then they dumped, you know, tar and feather out the window and they all ran away.
00:43:32.000 Trump ran full speed, slammed his way through the door, shattering it, ran up the stairs, knocking everything down while they all started screaming.
00:43:39.000 And they're terrified of him.
00:43:40.000 Bernie, he bent the knee.
00:43:43.000 They came to him and said, we will destroy you.
00:43:46.000 You're not coming in.
00:43:47.000 And he says, I will do anything you say.
00:43:48.000 He's Anakin bowing to Palpatine.
00:43:51.000 Him not endorsing Tulsi is so weird.
00:43:54.000 I don't know.
00:43:55.000 Why?
00:43:55.000 Because that aligns with everything he's ever talked about his whole career.
00:43:59.000 Like, unveiling the deep state.
00:44:01.000 Like, giving the power to the common man.
00:44:02.000 But he's never meant any of that stuff.
00:44:06.000 And I don't understand why you...
00:44:08.000 Like, he's a communist.
00:44:10.000 He's been lying about being a communist forever.
00:44:14.000 Well, Phil, the actual commies call him a nationalist capitalist.
00:44:18.000 Yes.
00:44:19.000 Because Bernie's stated policy positions...
00:44:22.000 So the World Socialist website in like 2015, 2016 wrote an article saying, do not support Bernie.
00:44:28.000 He's a nationalist capitalist.
00:44:29.000 He wants closed borders.
00:44:30.000 He wants workers' rights only for American citizens.
00:44:33.000 And he believes that workers should be able to get money and spend it as they choose from their jobs, but it should be more.
00:44:40.000 They said Bernie is a capitalist.
00:44:42.000 The only position he had was that he thought shares in a publicly traded company should be required to reserve 20% of their shares towards employee bonuses when they go up in value.
00:44:55.000 So maybe he's close to a Fabian socialist, which the Fabian Society is a socialist society that doesn't want an actual revolution.
00:45:01.000 They want to vote capitalism away, vote socialism into existence.
00:45:11.000 Bernie was way too...
00:45:13.000 He was fond of the Soviet Union.
00:45:14.000 He was way too...
00:45:15.000 He went to the Soviet Union for his honeymoon.
00:45:19.000 And he had glowing praise for him.
00:45:21.000 So maybe he looks at the situation in the United States and says, well, this is the context that we live in.
00:45:27.000 But I think that when it comes to his moral compass and the things that he believes, I think that he believes in socialism.
00:45:33.000 He believes that it can happen.
00:45:34.000 I want you to envision it this way.
00:45:37.000 Deep within Donald Trump.
00:45:39.000 Trump is an avatar of raw will.
00:45:43.000 And just imagine this super oiled up, muscular guy going, that's Trump's willpower.
00:45:50.000 Trump is a terrifying guy to go up against.
00:45:52.000 And when the deep state tried, they lost.
00:45:55.000 Yes.
00:45:56.000 Inside of Bernie Sanders, I would describe his will as a 17-year-old who doesn't eat protein and has a B vitamin and thiamine deficiency, so they actually struggle to walk, and we're deeply concerned about them not eating a proper diet or lifting weights, so they're bedridden.
00:46:14.000 Bernie Sanders is a terrified, callow individual, and Donald Trump is a boisterous ram smashing through the deep state.
00:46:22.000 He's also an intensely proud capitalist and has Donald Trump his entire life, you know, real estate magnet magnet magnet.
00:46:31.000 Is that how you say the word?
00:46:32.000 I love how he's like Gaza is a real estate deal.
00:46:36.000 And there's that viral video.
00:46:38.000 From the debates in 2015, where Marco Rubio is like, I think it might be 2016. He's like, Donald Trump, Gaza is not a real estate deal.
00:46:46.000 It's not.
00:46:46.000 And he's like, it is.
00:46:47.000 It is.
00:46:47.000 And now Trump is once again still saying the same thing.
00:46:50.000 We're going to treat it like a real estate deal.
00:46:51.000 We're going to make everybody's lives better.
00:46:54.000 I don't know that Trump.
00:46:55.000 I do appreciate the out of the box thinking on this one.
00:46:58.000 His idea is very simple, though maybe not possible.
00:47:02.000 He's like, we take the Palestinians who are displaced.
00:47:05.000 We move them out.
00:47:06.000 We rebuild the whole thing like the Riviera of beautiful homes, and we bring them back in.
00:47:11.000 Not all of them.
00:47:12.000 And then we're going to make it this beautiful place, and it's just like, yeah, that's never going to happen, Trump.
00:47:16.000 You're not excited to stay at Maragaza?
00:47:20.000 I'm very excited.
00:47:21.000 You know what's funny is, you know what Mar-a-Lago means, right?
00:47:25.000 No.
00:47:26.000 Beautiful sea?
00:47:28.000 No.
00:47:29.000 What does Lago mean?
00:47:30.000 Come on, sir, say it.
00:47:30.000 What language is this?
00:47:31.000 Mar-a-Lago is Spanish.
00:47:32.000 Spanish.
00:47:33.000 Come on.
00:47:34.000 Mar...
00:47:35.000 Yeah, sea of something.
00:47:37.000 It means from the sea to the lagoon.
00:47:40.000 Oh.
00:47:41.000 Oh.
00:47:41.000 Mar-a-lago, yes.
00:47:43.000 So the two bodies of water that you have...
00:47:45.000 Free lagoons.
00:47:46.000 You have, in Palm Beach, you have, it's like this strip, and then you have the ocean.
00:47:51.000 And so Mar-a-lago is...
00:47:53.000 From the lagoon to the sea.
00:47:54.000 From the lagoon.
00:47:55.000 Well, it's from the sea to the lagoon.
00:47:56.000 Mar-a-lago.
00:47:57.000 And in, of course, we know that there is a similar phrase in this area, at least.
00:48:04.000 Are you looking at me to say it?
00:48:07.000 That's crazy.
00:48:07.000 That is a hate crime.
00:48:09.000 You brought up Maragazza.
00:48:11.000 And I was like, that's actually pretty funny because the contrast of Mar-a-Lago is beauty.
00:48:17.000 I mean, we live in a simulation, don't we?
00:48:19.000 You have from the ocean to the lagoon, this beautiful property of opulence.
00:48:24.000 And American spirit and success and nobility.
00:48:29.000 And then you have this phrase of the far-left activists from the river to the sea, which represents destruction, war, conflict, and pain.
00:48:36.000 The simulation is real.
00:48:37.000 The Super Bowl.
00:48:39.000 Murder!
00:48:40.000 The Bald Eagles destroyed the Native American-themed team.
00:48:44.000 The Chiefs.
00:48:45.000 And it was just like pure American propaganda.
00:48:49.000 Simulation theory.
00:48:50.000 It's so real.
00:48:50.000 It was also the team Trump endorsed.
00:48:52.000 He endorsed the chiefs.
00:48:56.000 Trump was there for the chiefs.
00:48:57.000 He's like, I am fully team chiefs and the Eagles haven't gotten, as far as I know, they have not gotten their invite to the White House yet.
00:49:03.000 And they're like, well, maybe go if he invites us.
00:49:05.000 I gotta say, Ian, it is a funny idea that the chiefs were crushed by the Eagles.
00:49:12.000 And they're literally, it's a bald eagle on their helmet.
00:49:14.000 Right.
00:49:14.000 It's a type of bald eagle.
00:49:15.000 We live in a simulation.
00:49:17.000 And not because of any of this, but because of quantum entanglement.
00:49:21.000 Dude, I wonder if we keep reliving this life.
00:49:24.000 Like, every time we're born again, it's constantly this one, over and over and over and over, and there's always the history, but it's always this.
00:49:31.000 No, the reason I'd say no is because if you take a look at static on a TV, it would probably be nigh-infinite iterations of reality.
00:49:41.000 I do think it's probably likely that time is...
00:49:45.000 Circuitous of sorts, that it curves in and in itself.
00:49:48.000 That means that one theory is that as time goes forward, eventually it wraps all the way back around.
00:49:56.000 But that doesn't mean it's a single loop.
00:49:59.000 It is a multidimensional fabric, so every time it wraps back around on itself, it's in a different shape, twisted in a different way, with different iterations of itself.
00:50:06.000 Well, that makes sense with, like, the statistics...
00:50:08.000 Oh my gosh, I couldn't speak.
00:50:10.000 The statistics of probability, that the way that the particles arrange in the universe, there's only so many ways that it can be arranged.
00:50:16.000 It's like building a Lego set or something like that, so you can make different ways, but eventually, in every whatever number, universe, or probability, it will be rearranged just like it is now, but, like, a little different.
00:50:27.000 Like, maybe...
00:50:28.000 You have Ian's hair and you wear a beanie in another realm.
00:50:31.000 You lucky.
00:50:32.000 I mean, that's the easiest way to describe it in another version of reality.
00:50:36.000 I was trying to make it simple.
00:50:36.000 You're talking quantum physics over here.
00:50:38.000 I'm like, hey, people, this is a simple way to understand.
00:50:41.000 In another universe, there's literally no Earth.
00:50:43.000 It's just nothing.
00:50:44.000 No Earth.
00:50:45.000 So it's more just like versions of this, but with different...
00:50:49.000 Well, there's probabilistic multidimensional theory which states that for every probabilistic outcome, a new reality branches off from it.
00:50:58.000 I don't know if I believe that idea.
00:51:02.000 Some people don't believe any.
00:51:03.000 Some people think there's a singular...
00:51:05.000 One true timeline, whatever, and time travel's not a thing and whatever.
00:51:08.000 Probably more faith-based individuals would probably think that.
00:51:11.000 I don't know.
00:51:11.000 We think we know a lot.
00:51:12.000 Humans actually know very little, so who knows?
00:51:14.000 We can make cell phones, but we can't map time, so.
00:51:17.000 But the craziest thing, though, is I do recommend, if you are interested and you have the time, read as much about gravity as you can.
00:51:24.000 Yep.
00:51:24.000 Because it is mind-bending.
00:51:26.000 Oh, really?
00:51:27.000 People don't understand how mind-bending it is.
00:51:29.000 So I'll give you a simplified version.
00:51:32.000 Two bodies on a curved object moving forward eventually will intersect.
00:51:40.000 So that is, take a globe and put two people at the same latitude and have them move south.
00:51:48.000 Eventually, they will intersect.
00:51:51.000 Depending on the distance between them, they may intersect at the south pole.
00:51:56.000 Because south...
00:51:58.000 To you, maybe one way to another.
00:51:59.000 But once you get to the bottom, south is one direction.
00:52:01.000 Hence, they have that riddle where you say, you're in a cabin where every window has southern exposure and a bear approaches.
00:52:08.000 What color is the bear?
00:52:10.000 And it's supposed to be a riddle.
00:52:11.000 I guess it's not really a good one.
00:52:12.000 And then everyone goes, how am I supposed to know the color of the bear is?
00:52:15.000 Because if the windows only have southern exposure, that means you're at the south pole.
00:52:19.000 Or it's a...
00:52:20.000 No, no, I'm sorry.
00:52:21.000 You're at the north pole.
00:52:22.000 Every window is pointing south.
00:52:24.000 That means you are literally at the North Pole and every direction is south.
00:52:26.000 There's no east or west.
00:52:28.000 So the bear is going to be white.
00:52:29.000 Other way around.
00:52:30.000 Brown.
00:52:32.000 Polar bears are in the south.
00:52:33.000 So if every window is pointing north, it would be a white bear.
00:52:36.000 Polar bears are in the south?
00:52:37.000 Yeah.
00:52:38.000 Are you sure?
00:52:39.000 Yes.
00:52:40.000 Yes.
00:52:40.000 I'm going to put a million bucks on that final answer.
00:52:43.000 You are wrong.
00:52:44.000 Am I really?
00:52:44.000 Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're wrong about that one.
00:52:46.000 I feel like polar bears live in the North Pole.
00:52:48.000 I feel like that's their whole thing.
00:52:49.000 Polar bears are north, not south.
00:52:51.000 Anyway, I digress.
00:52:53.000 So, one of the simple ways people...
00:52:55.000 Yeah, you're right.
00:52:56.000 I was wrong with such confidence.
00:52:58.000 So, we are going to get back into talking about, like, actual news in a second, but I do want to mention this because I was watching this really interesting video that described the easiest way to understand gravity is that we are moving forward on a curved, on a curved dimensional axis that is time, and...
00:53:14.000 We don't perceive it as movement.
00:53:15.000 We perceive it as time.
00:53:17.000 But the reason there's gravity is because two objects in a curved space moving in a forward direction will eventually intersect.
00:53:25.000 That's what gravity is.
00:53:25.000 That's so badass.
00:53:26.000 When I was in high school, I studied multidimensional probabilities of different dimensions.
00:53:31.000 And we learned all of that and actually brought up the religious thing.
00:53:34.000 It actually proves in a way it lines up.
00:53:38.000 It's a time where science and religion line up.
00:53:41.000 For my language in the Torah, when Jews got the original Torah, it says that they were at a higher dimension and that God read all Ten Commandments at once and that the Jews, the Jewish people at that time, they weren't officially Jews.
00:53:52.000 The people of Israel were very scared and they all like passed out and they're like, Moses, please read it to us.
00:53:57.000 We are so terrified.
00:53:58.000 You read it to us.
00:53:59.000 And the punishment for that was God dropped them down in dimension.
00:54:02.000 And that makes sense with the time.
00:54:03.000 Like, how could you listen to ten things read at once or even say ten things at once?
00:54:07.000 It doesn't make sense.
00:54:08.000 But when you look at time, Not on a linear path from a higher dimension.
00:54:13.000 It all happens at once.
00:54:15.000 Right.
00:54:15.000 From a higher dimension, time could appear as though you're looking down a road.
00:54:21.000 Yeah.
00:54:22.000 You can see a bunch of different options.
00:54:24.000 They're all called spines.
00:54:25.000 If I choose to wear a red dress or a blue dress, that's a whole different path in my life.
00:54:29.000 And a higher dimension being an angel or a god, which is much higher, can see all of those at once.
00:54:35.000 So that's where it comes.
00:54:36.000 Free will versus...
00:54:38.000 God's plan.
00:54:39.000 Imagine you're looking outside of the fourth dimension, which we would consider to be time, and they can see you, Ian, from your point of birth, your point of death, and they can choose to go to any point in your life and intervene and then see how that changes and then go to this point, then go back and change it again.
00:54:57.000 I think that's the fifth dimension.
00:54:58.000 It's like an infinite wave of possible timelines.
00:55:02.000 Like each individual thing, like your back, like a spine.
00:55:05.000 And that's what I've always understood as free will, where God can see all the different paths in your life that you could take, but you can choose exactly which one you will take.
00:55:13.000 So you don't have complete free will.
00:55:16.000 You don't have a probability that God never thought of or could never foresee, but you can still choose within that.
00:55:20.000 And it's just a cool way where science and religion actually prove each other and work together.
00:55:24.000 Let's jump to this next story.
00:55:26.000 We have a tweet from our good friends over at Politico.
00:55:29.000 You know we love Politico.
00:55:30.000 And they wrote this.
00:55:33.000 How Democrats were tricked into believing the economy was strong, writes former U.S. Comptroller Eugene Ludwig.
00:55:41.000 That's right, ladies and gentlemen, Democrats were tricked.
00:55:43.000 Why not Republicans?
00:55:45.000 Let me just pause real quick and let's let that ruminate a little bit.
00:55:49.000 Why is it that the people who supported Trump during the 2024 cycle knew the economy was bad?
00:55:56.000 Why is it that Trump won the popular vote?
00:55:59.000 Indicating the majority of the country voted Republican.
00:56:01.000 And how were Democrats tricked?
00:56:03.000 There is a conundrum here in this story.
00:56:06.000 Now, the first thing I want to say is, just to get to the meat and potatoes here, Politico mentions, when you go all the way down, basically, if you actually take all the numbers, the real unemployment under Joe Biden was 23.7.
00:56:18.000 People weren't making money, they didn't have jobs.
00:56:20.000 But this does present us with a question.
00:56:23.000 I understand that the average person would go to the grocery store and say, wow, everything's expensive and I can't buy anything.
00:56:33.000 Thus, they were not tricked.
00:56:35.000 And they said, I'm going to vote for Donald Trump.
00:56:37.000 Well, the media kept saying that the economy was better than ever.
00:56:40.000 So the question then becomes, how is it that Democrats avoided going to grocery stores or at the very least when they did, they were unfazed by the prices?
00:56:49.000 The answer, of course, is simple.
00:56:51.000 The Democratic Party is the party of the upper class and the wealthy, and they do not care.
00:56:57.000 About things like, can you afford food?
00:56:59.000 And it's important to understand this because that means today when they're saying, why aren't the prices going down, Trump?
00:57:04.000 They don't care and they never cared.
00:57:07.000 That's how they were tricked.
00:57:09.000 Because when Don Lemon asked a guy in the boardwalk in Atlantic City why he was voting for Trump, the guy says the economy.
00:57:14.000 Don Lemon said, actually, the economy is good.
00:57:15.000 And the guy laughed because the guy is like, bro, I went to the grocery store.
00:57:20.000 OK, I can't if butter was seven dollars.
00:57:22.000 And Don Lemon's like, I don't know how much butter costs.
00:57:25.000 He didn't literally say that.
00:57:27.000 I'm using a hypothetical.
00:57:28.000 But you had that MSNBC moment where Mika Brzezinski said to Scarborough, butter $7.
00:57:35.000 And he goes, wait, what?
00:57:37.000 And she goes, yeah, $7.
00:57:38.000 And he goes, what is it, covered in gold?
00:57:41.000 Who's buying that?
00:57:42.000 And it's like, Joe, it is $7.
00:57:44.000 But you see, what Joe revealed in that moment was he doesn't go grocery shopping.
00:57:48.000 He probably asks Consuela to do it for him.
00:57:51.000 And then he complains that Trump is taking his indentured servants away because they're all racists.
00:57:56.000 He probably also doesn't eat butter.
00:57:57.000 Soy only.
00:57:58.000 Sea oils only.
00:57:59.000 Soy margarine.
00:58:00.000 Yeah, but this is the greatest gaslighting campaign in modern history, telling us for years, everything's great.
00:58:06.000 Everybody's employed.
00:58:07.000 The groceries are so affordable.
00:58:09.000 Everybody has jobs.
00:58:10.000 Everything's great.
00:58:11.000 We're great.
00:58:11.000 And we all said, I literally go to the grocery store.
00:58:14.000 I make good money.
00:58:14.000 I work a hard job.
00:58:15.000 Why is everything still so expensive for me?
00:58:17.000 Why does $100 get me half a bag of groceries in New York City?
00:58:21.000 You have to spend hundreds of dollars a month.
00:58:23.000 Takeout has become cheaper than purchase.
00:58:25.000 Purchasing groceries.
00:58:26.000 That's crazy.
00:58:26.000 It's gotten so out of there.
00:58:28.000 Out of just control.
00:58:30.000 And this is just another leg of that.
00:58:32.000 Trying to gaslight us.
00:58:33.000 Oh, they didn't know.
00:58:34.000 They were tricked.
00:58:35.000 No, we know that they knew.
00:58:36.000 Because there's no way.
00:58:37.000 As you said, there's no way to not know.
00:58:38.000 It's everywhere around you.
00:58:39.000 It's the gas prices.
00:58:40.000 It's buying anything.
00:58:42.000 Shipping prices.
00:58:43.000 Things on Amazon.
00:58:44.000 I just went skiing.
00:58:45.000 I bought these ski pants that I had bought a year before.
00:58:48.000 A year before?
00:58:49.000 Literally, this time last year, $44.
00:58:51.000 This year?
00:58:52.000 $84.
00:58:53.000 Oh my gosh.
00:58:53.000 Doubled in price in a year, but we're being told it's the best economy in modern history.
00:58:58.000 Joe Biden is literally our king.
00:58:59.000 Everybody kiss his feet.
00:59:00.000 Yeah, the price increase that the average person saw, I mean, so I'm going to band it that we go on tour and we'll go ahead and rent a bus and we have crew.
00:59:13.000 We did a tour in 2022 and it cost X amount of dollars and we did a tour of roughly the same amount of...
00:59:19.000 Same amount of time.
00:59:20.000 And the cost of the bus was almost double because of gas.
00:59:24.000 When it comes to get gas, the cost of renting hotels for your bus driver, the cost for the actual bus drivers.
00:59:30.000 It is incredibly hard for bands to go out and actually make a good living when you've got so much overhead.
00:59:39.000 We're a pretty well-established band.
00:59:42.000 We go out and we make good money and stuff.
00:59:45.000 But still, it's like when you go out for...
00:59:48.000 In 2022, we had guarantees of X amount of dollars, and we had guarantees on the most recent tour that were better than the last one, and we still came home with about the same amount of money.
01:00:01.000 And then they tell you, just make more money.
01:00:03.000 Just make more money.
01:00:04.000 And the thing is, when it comes to a band like us, it's like, there's only so much money that you want to charge tickets.
01:00:10.000 You know, it's like, people have to come to the shows.
01:00:12.000 And when you've got, your tickets are...
01:00:15.000 $30 or $40.
01:00:17.000 And then there's ticket master fees and parking's $20.
01:00:21.000 And then if people are there, if you've got more than one person going, like a dude goes with his girlfriend or whatever, you've got two tickets.
01:00:27.000 And then a couple beers are going to cost you $60.
01:00:31.000 $7 each, $8.
01:00:32.000 Depending on where.
01:00:34.000 Like $20 at Yankee Stadium, minimum.
01:00:38.000 But the thing is, that stuff adds up.
01:00:40.000 And it's like, look, man, when you're playing...
01:00:42.000 Heavy metal, you're playing to blue-collar people.
01:00:46.000 And when you're competing with staying home and watching Netflix, or staying home and playing Xbox, or just scrolling on TikTok, it's real hard to get people out if your prices are too high.
01:01:00.000 So it's...
01:01:02.000 Super competitive anyways, or the overhead's super high anyways, and then when you've got throwing all the things that the average concertgoer has to pay for, it's really hard to convince people to come out.
01:01:13.000 You have to have a really good reason to get people off the couch.
01:01:18.000 It's like that guy who sang Old Men, Richmond, North of Richmond, that song that went super viral, Oliver.
01:01:24.000 He came out, he's like, I want to have super cheap tickets, I don't want anybody to have to pay so much, and then...
01:01:30.000 All of the concert venues were like, we cannot afford to have this.
01:01:34.000 We will lose money if we have you at this ticket price and you have a whole thing.
01:01:37.000 The system's broken, but it's just how it works nowadays.
01:01:40.000 There's such high overhead costs.
01:01:42.000 Right, right, right.
01:01:43.000 With all due respect to that guy, I don't know.
01:01:45.000 Did he quit or something?
01:01:46.000 I don't know what happened to him.
01:01:48.000 There's a lot of people who are very naive.
01:01:51.000 Yeah.
01:01:51.000 And I was one of them getting into the industry.
01:01:53.000 I say that Allison and I, not a day goes by we don't look at each other and go, oh, so that's why corporations do that.
01:02:00.000 So my response to all of you guys when you're mad at your company for having some wacky policy, it's the government.
01:02:06.000 You know, companies will take the path of least resistance.
01:02:09.000 They don't care.
01:02:10.000 And so that means when you have a weird HR policy and they're like, you've got to watch these weird harassment videos, the company doesn't want to pay for that.
01:02:17.000 I guarantee you they don't want to pay for it, but they have to because of government regulation.
01:02:21.000 Because if they don't do it, then they're open to liability, then the insurance companies drop them, and it's because of government requirements typically.
01:02:26.000 In addition to what you were saying about the Democratic Party being the party of the wealthy and them sending their servants to shop, maybe their bill went up $100, but they don't really know why exactly, just whatever.
01:02:36.000 I think there's this phenomenon of cognitive dissonance in the plebs, in the people that aren't the wealthy, the people that are making $50,000, $40,000, $30,000 a year, whatever.
01:02:45.000 They're just...
01:02:46.000 They're told one thing on TV, and they're unable to break that spell.
01:02:51.000 They're stuck believing what they were told the first time.
01:02:54.000 Some people say it's easier to...
01:02:57.000 The first thing you hear, it's harder to disbelieve a lie.
01:03:02.000 There's a way of expressing it.
01:03:03.000 Once you've heard it before someone else has come and told you the opposite, it's like you've ingrained it.
01:03:08.000 And so they're just like, but the TV said that the economy is fine.
01:03:12.000 It breaks their reality.
01:03:13.000 That's a lot of it.
01:03:14.000 Admitting that Trump's doing good, it breaks their idea that he's this racist, fascist, horrible Nazi figure.
01:03:20.000 They can't acknowledge it because it will destroy everything.
01:03:23.000 This is their identity for them.
01:03:25.000 This isn't for us.
01:03:26.000 We all have our beliefs and then we have a bunch of other things that we care about and we're passionate about, like skateboarding and acting and music.
01:03:31.000 We all have so much more to politics, but these people, their entire life, identity, sense of self-worth relies on being considered on the right side of history.
01:03:40.000 Good moral codes.
01:03:42.000 That's a really great point because a lot of these people consider themselves activists.
01:03:47.000 Yeah.
01:03:47.000 And they think of themselves as activists.
01:03:49.000 So they don't stop doing this, right?
01:03:52.000 It's the way that they live.
01:03:53.000 It's all day long.
01:03:54.000 And that's one of the things that conservatives generally, that's why the conservatives are generally behind the eight ball, because conservatives are out doing things in the real world that are not associated with politics or winning the next election or whatever.
01:04:08.000 If your entire self There's a reason why they say that once you start running a business, you become conservative.
01:04:23.000 Once you get your first paycheck, you're a young progressive idealist.
01:04:28.000 I describe it like this.
01:04:30.000 There's ways to draw distinctions between the left and the right, and there's many different ways.
01:04:33.000 One of them is a point I made last week.
01:04:37.000 There's a local car dealership.
01:04:39.000 And I was talking to one of the sales guys.
01:04:41.000 And we were talking business stuff.
01:04:44.000 And I asked, like, how much revenue do you guys do per month at one dealership?
01:04:48.000 And he goes, oh, just over a million bucks.
01:04:50.000 And I'm like, oh, okay.
01:04:51.000 Well, I run a business.
01:04:52.000 I don't know what that means.
01:04:53.000 That means that they've got to pay each porter.
01:04:55.000 They've got to pay each salesperson.
01:04:57.000 The salesperson is going to get a commission.
01:04:58.000 They have to.
01:04:59.000 So a million bucks.
01:05:01.000 What's their margin, though?
01:05:02.000 Five percent?
01:05:03.000 Meaning basically all the money comes in, goes right out to sustain and support.
01:05:08.000 You know, cater to the infrastructure.
01:05:10.000 But I guarantee you, if you go to a leftist activist and said, did you know that every month that car dealership makes a million dollars?
01:05:16.000 They're going to go, a million dollars?
01:05:18.000 That's wrong.
01:05:19.000 The government should take it.
01:05:20.000 Nobody should make that much money.
01:05:21.000 And you're like, they're paying for electricity.
01:05:24.000 They're paying for plumbing.
01:05:25.000 They're paying for their merchandise.
01:05:27.000 They're paying for their, you know, which is the vehicles.
01:05:29.000 They're paying their staff.
01:05:30.000 They're paying the people who clean.
01:05:32.000 These young liberal leftists, like, I guarantee you, if you talk to, like, David Hogg, he would not know these things.
01:05:37.000 He'd be like, huh?
01:05:38.000 It's altruism.
01:05:39.000 That's what I think it comes down to.
01:05:40.000 It's individualism versus altruism.
01:05:42.000 They believe we have a responsibility for each other.
01:05:45.000 A lot of this was popularized during COVID. Like, it's my job to make sure that you're healthy.
01:05:49.000 No, it's not.
01:05:50.000 It's my job to make sure I'm healthy.
01:05:52.000 Your health is your problem.
01:05:53.000 It's not my job.
01:05:54.000 And I think that's just so deeply ingrained in a lot of these fellow Gen Z folks.
01:06:00.000 Altruistic.
01:06:01.000 They think they're being altruistic.
01:06:02.000 They're actually being communist.
01:06:04.000 Yes.
01:06:05.000 Yes.
01:06:05.000 That's exactly it.
01:06:06.000 Big problem with our education system, from my perspective with public schooling in the 90s, early 2000s, 90s, 80s and 90s, they don't teach anything about how to run a business.
01:06:16.000 They don't even...
01:06:16.000 Even scratch that surface on purpose because they want to make good little soldier boys that'll go raise their hand and wait to be called on and then get hired at some job for the corporate elite that want the people to follow this Prussian school of education.
01:06:31.000 And I didn't know how to write a check.
01:06:33.000 I got to college and I didn't know how to write a check.
01:06:35.000 I'd never been told.
01:06:36.000 No one ever mentioned it to me.
01:06:36.000 I had to pay my first rent.
01:06:37.000 I was like, where do I draw on this?
01:06:40.000 What do I write?
01:06:40.000 Where?
01:06:41.000 Someone had to show me.
01:06:42.000 I'm like, how did I not learn that in school?
01:06:44.000 They showed us how to write checks.
01:06:46.000 Really?
01:06:46.000 I had to call my mom.
01:06:48.000 I was like, where do I put my name?
01:06:49.000 I'm effing old, though.
01:06:50.000 I'm an old guy.
01:06:52.000 By the mid-80s, they'd stop all that stuff.
01:06:56.000 No, no.
01:06:57.000 By the mid-80s, they didn't.
01:06:59.000 It's not script for me in third grade.
01:07:01.000 They're like, you guys are too dumb.
01:07:02.000 We're not going to even try anymore.
01:07:03.000 They gave up on the American education system.
01:07:06.000 I mean, I graduated in 2000. Well, okay, so in the 80s and early 90s, the education system was totally inundated with Marxists, so that might be true.
01:07:16.000 But I grew up in the 80s, and I graduated in 1993, and I learned how to...
01:07:22.000 Fill out a check, you know, and how to balance a checkbook and stuff like that.
01:07:26.000 Did you get much more business?
01:07:27.000 You know, balance a checkbook?
01:07:28.000 Yeah.
01:07:29.000 It's wild because that doesn't exist anymore.
01:07:31.000 No, it doesn't.
01:07:32.000 I mean, you don't have to because you can look on your phone and it'll tell you in real time how much money you have.
01:07:37.000 And we use our cards.
01:07:38.000 All your ins and outs.
01:07:39.000 Did you get any other...
01:07:40.000 I graduated in 97, so I'm four years behind you.
01:07:42.000 Did you have any business training at all in school, public school?
01:07:46.000 Were you in public school?
01:07:46.000 Yeah, no, but I mean, my father owned a business, so I picked up a little bit of that stuff from him.
01:07:52.000 Kind of always thought about doing my own thing.
01:07:55.000 I was not kind of the dude that was like, I'm going to go to college and blah, blah, blah.
01:07:58.000 I was playing guitar when I was 14, and so I wanted to be in a band.
01:08:04.000 It's easy to come out of school screaming, workers' rights, give me a percentage of your company when you have no training in how companies need to run.
01:08:11.000 So I think we'll have a lot less of that communist, and maybe that's on purpose, is that the organizations that are running...
01:08:18.000 Are they upending the Department of Education?
01:08:20.000 Is it about to get turned off?
01:08:21.000 What department?
01:08:23.000 I don't even know.
01:08:24.000 No such department exists.
01:08:25.000 Yeah, I don't think that's ever...
01:08:26.000 No longer?
01:08:27.000 That's what Elon said.
01:08:28.000 It would be nice.
01:08:29.000 What did he say?
01:08:30.000 There's no such department?
01:08:31.000 Nothing but a memory.
01:08:32.000 I don't know what you're talking about.
01:08:33.000 Did you guys see that press conference where resting Joker face Caitlin Collins asked about retaliation against journalists for defying Trump or whatever?
01:08:44.000 And Kellen Levitz was like...
01:08:45.000 Going into the Oval Office to ask the president a question is a privilege by invitation.
01:08:49.000 We don't have to invite you.
01:08:51.000 And it was really funny because she's like, the Secretary of the Interior has updated the name to the Gulf of America.
01:08:58.000 Apple and Google and literally every other news outlet here is referring to the Gulf of America.
01:09:02.000 It's done.
01:09:03.000 Why isn't the AP? And then Caitlin Collins is just, so you're basically saying you're retaliating against journalists because they're not doing what you're saying?
01:09:11.000 And it's just like, resting joker face, please calm down.
01:09:14.000 Your questions are bad.
01:09:15.000 Also, the AP was in Gaza on October 7th, so I think there's a lot of reasons why the AP is horrible, but overall...
01:09:21.000 Yeah, that's definitely a big one.
01:09:24.000 To clarify, I believe it was an individual who was a contractor for the AP. Yes, and they published that photo very happily.
01:09:32.000 It won photo of the year.
01:09:33.000 Wow.
01:09:34.000 Yeah.
01:09:34.000 Who owns it?
01:09:35.000 I want to look at the stock portfolio of AP. AP, I believe, is a non-profit.
01:09:38.000 But who owns that?
01:09:40.000 I don't know that it has...
01:09:41.000 I think it's like a board.
01:09:42.000 But look at it.
01:09:44.000 Maybe I'm wrong.
01:09:44.000 Let's jump to the story from today.
01:09:46.000 Elon Musk's son makes high-profile visit to the Oval Office.
01:09:50.000 His mom, Grimes, isn't pleased.
01:09:52.000 He should not be in public like this, Grimes wrote on X. There's a video going viral.
01:09:57.000 A couple of them, actually.
01:09:58.000 And I do want to point out, poor little X. You know, he's living his best life.
01:10:02.000 But here in this still image they've chosen for today, it's little X picking his nose.
01:10:07.000 He was getting in there.
01:10:09.000 He was getting in there.
01:10:10.000 Stop bullying the children.
01:10:11.000 I must confess, I myself often do, too.
01:10:15.000 You gotta get something out, you know?
01:10:17.000 You know, sometimes you gotta get it.
01:10:18.000 And I respect Lil X for having the balls to be like, hey, I'm gonna pick my nose on TV in the Oval Office.
01:10:24.000 I'm kidding, by the way.
01:10:24.000 It's a little kid.
01:10:25.000 Little kids can do what they want.
01:10:27.000 Maybe it's fair to say that Elon shouldn't be bringing his kid around in public like this?
01:10:32.000 No, I disagree.
01:10:33.000 No, I disagree about that, too.
01:10:34.000 And also, the fact that the kid is not trying to take all of his clothes off, like, that's a win.
01:10:38.000 Like, little kids love to, like, rip their clothes off and do crazy stuff like that.
01:10:41.000 Elon asked him to be calm, and he calmed down.
01:10:43.000 He's very well behaved.
01:10:44.000 Here's the real story that's going viral.
01:10:46.000 There's two videos.
01:10:47.000 One in which, we got these liberals posting this.
01:10:50.000 Jim Stewardson, anti-fascist.
01:10:52.000 Oh, really?
01:10:53.000 I love the Ukrainian flag.
01:10:56.000 He says, MAGA Q, folks, sincere question for you.
01:10:59.000 When XAI, Musk, says, you're not the president and you need to go away, where do you think he got that idea?
01:11:06.000 Well, let me play the video for you, and we'll see if we can make out what he's saying.
01:11:09.000 To restore democracy.
01:11:12.000 This may seem like, well, are we in a democracy?
01:11:15.000 It really does sound like the young man said, you're not the president, and you need to go away.
01:11:18.000 Let's try again.
01:11:19.000 Restore democracy.
01:11:21.000 Can't really make out what he's saying.
01:11:23.000 In another video, he also says something like, you need to shush.
01:11:26.000 What the left are now saying is that he was telling Trump that.
01:11:31.000 However, it doesn't look like he's not looking at Trump.
01:11:35.000 He's looking past him.
01:11:36.000 Yeah, there's a reporter off to the right that the ex interacts with like three times over the course of the 30 or 40 minutes.
01:11:42.000 And Trump does too!
01:11:44.000 Because I watched the full press conference, and I think Trump insulted the guy too.
01:11:48.000 Ex is shushing him at least twice, so the guy probably was talking on his phone, maybe he was whispering to the guy next to him, but I don't...
01:11:55.000 Unless you get the video, it's kind of undetermined.
01:11:57.000 During the press conference, Trump, I think, insulted the guy.
01:11:59.000 Also, Jim is a spurg.
01:12:02.000 The guy who wrote the article?
01:12:03.000 Jim Stewardson?
01:12:04.000 He's an absolute spurg.
01:12:05.000 He's a complete, complete...
01:12:07.000 This guy right here?
01:12:10.000 This is not an article.
01:12:11.000 He's just asking the question.
01:12:13.000 Where do you think I got the idea?
01:12:15.000 The point I'm bringing up is it's an implication that Elon Musk told the kid, I'm the president, and the kid looked at Trump and said, you're not the president and you need to go.
01:12:26.000 When in fact, the kid is clearly talking to the reporter who is to Trump's left, who Trump looks at several times and interacts with.
01:12:31.000 And there's another video, I don't know if they pulled it up, where he says, you need to shush.
01:12:36.000 Once again, talking to a reporter who is bothering them.
01:12:39.000 Clearly, right there, they're both looking at the same guy.
01:12:42.000 This is the world these people live in.
01:12:44.000 They lie, or they lack the cognitive capabilities to understand, in context, what was actually going on.
01:12:52.000 He's schizo-posting.
01:12:53.000 He's a total nutbag.
01:12:54.000 There's this post, this picture.
01:12:56.000 But again, I don't care about the one guy.
01:12:58.000 The point is...
01:12:58.000 This video is going viral among the left in general, and this just happens to be the one thing I posted.
01:13:03.000 Democrats and liberals in general have been sharing this video claiming that Lil X told Trump he's not the president because they live in a paranoid state where they make things up.
01:13:12.000 The Daily Beast did an article where they said, look how Trump is humiliated, and it just shows a picture of Elon talking and then Trump looking, just like, listening.
01:13:21.000 Dude, Trump is on...
01:13:22.000 The top of the mountain having Elon explain stuff right next to him.
01:13:26.000 Look at this.
01:13:27.000 It turns out the person that was being yelled at is likely the Today Show journalist.
01:13:32.000 Because here you can see.
01:13:34.000 I don't know if this is the right camera angle.
01:13:37.000 But you can see.
01:13:39.000 Look at this.
01:13:39.000 I love this angle.
01:13:40.000 Can we just...
01:13:41.000 Here we go.
01:13:42.000 We formally debunked it.
01:13:44.000 Look.
01:13:44.000 There's this massive gaggle of press.
01:13:50.000 Blah, blah, blah.
01:13:51.000 We don't care.
01:13:55.000 Anyway, if we jump back to the beginning, you can see all of the journalists and the kid is looking at this.
01:14:03.000 I think he was young at the Today Show.
01:14:05.000 Could be.
01:14:06.000 But, I mean, you're right.
01:14:07.000 It is typical of the left to, you know, look for those kind of things.
01:14:12.000 Anything that they can say is, hey, this is...
01:14:16.000 Something that's bad for Trump and now, consequently, because of Musk's position in the administration for Elon Musk, they're going to do it.
01:14:24.000 It's along the same lines as the very fine people hope.
01:14:30.000 Excuse me, the very fine people hoax.
01:14:32.000 It's the same kind of impulse.
01:14:34.000 If we can cast these people in a bad light, it doesn't matter if we're telling the truth, if we're representing what actually was going on in the room.
01:14:42.000 If we can make these people look bad, we're going to make them look bad because the legacy media is pure propaganda.
01:14:49.000 We should show this picture if you can pull it up, Tim.
01:14:51.000 It's on Twitter.
01:14:52.000 It shows JFK, John F. Kennedy.
01:14:55.000 Working at the desk, and then there's a kid.
01:14:58.000 Well, you gotta tell me how to find it.
01:14:59.000 Okay, it's posted by a guy.
01:15:01.000 It's on my Twitter page.
01:15:02.000 You'll find it.
01:15:03.000 It's like 10 posts down.
01:15:05.000 Put it in the Slack.
01:15:06.000 I can actually literally put it in the Slack, too.
01:15:08.000 Yeah, I'll do that while you're looking.
01:15:10.000 I'll just pull it up.
01:15:10.000 Cool.
01:15:11.000 And it's beautiful.
01:15:13.000 It's really like, talk about propaganda that is good.
01:15:16.000 Propaganda.
01:15:17.000 Oh, I see, I see.
01:15:18.000 It's a gorgeous...
01:15:20.000 That's gorgeous imagery.
01:15:21.000 Look, like, bringing youth into the White House when you're doing work, like, legitimate work.
01:15:27.000 The point is, like, we talk about, we've talked about, or at least I've talked about multiple times on the show, is we need to focus and center the family as opposed to centering the margins, right?
01:15:37.000 That's a phrase the left uses all the time.
01:15:39.000 We're going to center the marginalized.
01:15:41.000 We're going to focus on the marginalized, and we're not going to focus on essentially what is normal.
01:15:46.000 And that is something that is absolutely horrible for the country.
01:15:49.000 If you want a country that wants to have more babies and wants to have more families, which produce the country that we want, then focus on that stuff.
01:16:00.000 This picture of X in the White House is great.
01:16:03.000 It's great when Donald Trump has his granddaughter and is hanging out with his granddaughter playing golf.
01:16:09.000 That kind of stuff is great.
01:16:10.000 Shows good, wholesome family stuff.
01:16:14.000 We shouldn't have...
01:16:15.000 Trans people on the White House lawn taking their tits out.
01:16:19.000 We should have stuff like this.
01:16:21.000 And that's exactly what we got.
01:16:23.000 That's why Trump won.
01:16:25.000 Yes, absolutely.
01:16:26.000 So I hear this more than anything.
01:16:28.000 The commercial where it says Kamala's for they, them, and Trump is for us or for you.
01:16:34.000 I hear people say all the time, they're like, that was powerful.
01:16:36.000 I talked to someone who said that they were a moderate, didn't really care to vote.
01:16:40.000 That really moved them.
01:16:41.000 Because people were sick and tired of, as Phil described it, centering the margins.
01:16:46.000 I think now, too, with Taylor Swift getting booed, here's another story that I know most people probably don't care about.
01:16:52.000 I'd probably like to talk about it, though.
01:16:54.000 Captain America Brave New World Thursday previews will be out tomorrow.
01:16:58.000 It's the new Marvel movie starring Anthony Mackie, where he takes up the mantle of Captain America.
01:17:02.000 Captain America, of course, was Chris Evans, a white man.
01:17:05.000 He retires, gets old, travels through time, whatever.
01:17:08.000 And then he hands his shield off to Falcon.
01:17:11.000 Anthony Mackie and Bucky Barnes.
01:17:13.000 After they did that show, what is it?
01:17:16.000 Falcon and the Winter Soldier or whatever.
01:17:19.000 Anthony Mackie, Falcon, now is Captain America and he's got a cool new suit.
01:17:24.000 They release a trailer two days ago.
01:17:29.000 They also released a trailer for Thunderbolts, which isn't coming out until May.
01:17:34.000 Thunderbolts trailer got $10 million.
01:17:36.000 Captain America Brave New World got $500,000.
01:17:41.000 Miserable.
01:17:42.000 How could it be so low?
01:17:44.000 Well, I think it may have something to do with Anthony Mackie saying that Captain America doesn't...
01:17:50.000 He represents honor, integrity, and not necessarily America, or whatever his quote was.
01:17:54.000 Yeah, he was doing a press tour, and he says, I don't think Captain America really represents America, or something to that effect.
01:18:01.000 And it caused a backlash, massive complaints, and I think there's a lot of people who are like, I'm not seeing that movie.
01:18:08.000 So...
01:18:08.000 They dropped two trailers.
01:18:10.000 I think it was during the Super Bowl.
01:18:12.000 And we were watching the Super Bowl and the Thunderbolts trailer comes out.
01:18:15.000 And I can't remember who said it, but they were like, isn't it kind of weird that doing a trailer for a movie that's coming out in May when they have a movie literally coming out on Friday?
01:18:22.000 And I was like, that is interesting.
01:18:24.000 I don't think the sole reason why the movie is expecting to bomb and getting mixed reviews or whatever is because Anthony Mackie said this about America.
01:18:31.000 But I do think there are a lot of people who are just like, I am sick and tired of you telling me we're bad.
01:18:36.000 So when Anthony Mackie, I like the guy.
01:18:39.000 I don't know him personally.
01:18:40.000 I think, you know, I like the MCU stuff.
01:18:42.000 I think he was trying to play the game he thought he was supposed to play where I have to pander and say America's bad and Captain America is fascist or whatever.
01:18:52.000 And it backfired and blew up in his face.
01:18:53.000 Yeah, the literal quote, it's a long statement he was talking.
01:18:56.000 But it starts off, Captain America represents a lot of different things and I don't think the term America should be one of those representations.
01:19:02.000 It was a starting sentence.
01:19:04.000 There was calls for a boycott.
01:19:06.000 Don't go see the film.
01:19:07.000 He came out and basically tried apologizing twice, and I think then we see the trailers drop, and it's like, they've totally just dropped this film.
01:19:16.000 What did they?
01:19:16.000 Yeah, they're not doing commercials for it.
01:19:18.000 They're really ignoring it.
01:19:19.000 The trailer that they put up got a comparable view to a random clip from a Spider-Man cartoon, and it's like, wow, dude.
01:19:27.000 But Thunderbolts did fine.
01:19:29.000 Thunderbolts got 10 million.
01:19:30.000 What is Thunderbolts, by the way?
01:19:32.000 It's a Marvel version of just like ragtag has-been and sideshow superheroes who join forces to fight a bad guy or something.
01:19:39.000 It's like the crummy Avengers.
01:19:42.000 But it did decently well in the trailer, and people are excited for it.
01:19:45.000 But look, man, if you're going to come out in badmouth America, don't be surprised when people don't want to see your movie.
01:19:51.000 We're tired of it.
01:19:52.000 I wanted to add this about the Elon Musk stuff.
01:19:54.000 I just don't understand.
01:19:55.000 Why the left thought that this was a dunk to post that clip of like X saying, oh, you're another president.
01:20:01.000 They said Trump wasn't the president for four years straight.
01:20:04.000 And when there was an actual sitting president, they got rid of him and replaced him with Kamala.
01:20:08.000 And it's just so crazy.
01:20:10.000 And this is our time in the beginning that they've gone.
01:20:12.000 So this is actually with Elon Musk on if you look at X, if you look on TikTok, there's all these videos of him in the Oval Office and all the comments from all the liberals are like.
01:20:22.000 Wow, imagine a woman brought her child to work.
01:20:25.000 That's disgusting.
01:20:26.000 Like, imagine this was a woman and her kid.
01:20:28.000 You would all attack her.
01:20:29.000 No, it's only you saying that.
01:20:31.000 And, like, they've gone so against the right that they ended up on the alt-right of, like, actually, women should not be allowed to have their kids come to work and they should be in the office.
01:20:39.000 It's just gone.
01:20:40.000 It's not even alt-right.
01:20:41.000 It's just extremism and control.
01:20:43.000 And it's crazy how something so simple, like family and a father and a son duo, makes them irate.
01:20:48.000 And it causes a whole spur of things.
01:20:51.000 It's a duo.
01:20:52.000 Like, it's not like Elon couldn't afford daycare, so he had to bring his kid to work.
01:20:56.000 They're a duo.
01:20:57.000 He's teaching him.
01:20:58.000 This is X's school.
01:20:59.000 He's learning on the fly.
01:21:01.000 I wish I could have gotten to the office.
01:21:03.000 I can't remember where he was, the Capitol, and he had X with a little X. And then the media wrote, like, he was seen with a child or whatever, and they were confused as to why this was.
01:21:13.000 And they put out this tweet that got roasted because people were like, yo, that's his kid.
01:21:18.000 And they were like, oh.
01:21:19.000 They're like a parent actually parents their child?
01:21:22.000 Shocking!
01:21:22.000 We thought the government was doing all this.
01:21:24.000 You know what I'm really worried about?
01:21:26.000 I am...
01:21:27.000 I am actually worried about a generation of childless individuals because I feel like they're almost – not individually.
01:21:35.000 There's a lot of people I know who don't have kids.
01:21:37.000 Totally fine.
01:21:37.000 But I feel like in these big urban centers, when you have these older – these elder millennials, we'll call them.
01:21:46.000 They have no family.
01:21:47.000 They have no kids.
01:21:48.000 And again, it's not just about that.
01:21:50.000 It's about their separation from moral tradition.
01:21:53.000 They prioritize very weird things and very dangerous things and things that...
01:21:58.000 I'll put it this way.
01:21:59.000 As Dennis Prager referred to it as, I believe, cut stem politics or whatever he said.
01:22:04.000 Cut flower politics.
01:22:05.000 Something like that.
01:22:06.000 He was saying that you have this beautiful flower growing, you cut it, you hold it up in the air, and it looks beautiful for everybody, but you know that without its roots, it's going to die.
01:22:13.000 It's a brilliant idea.
01:22:16.000 In that regard, I forgot what I was going to say.
01:22:20.000 I totally lost my train of thought.
01:22:21.000 Families that we no longer have children because people are preoccupied.
01:22:26.000 What I'm basically saying is, in that concept of separating from your roots, what we have with the right today is a movement saying, let's all start planting trees.
01:22:37.000 And on the left, you have a movement of people saying, chop as many as you can down because then we can do cool stuff with it.
01:22:43.000 We can build houses for the future children that we're not having.
01:22:46.000 That's not what they're saying.
01:22:47.000 They're saying, chop it down so I can use the fuel today.
01:22:50.000 This is a big problem.
01:22:51.000 You've got two factions.
01:22:52.000 One saying, chop it down so I can have fuel for myself.
01:22:55.000 Another generation saying, plant as many as we can so our kids will live better lives.
01:22:58.000 And there's another part on the left that's like, you're selfish if you don't chop a tree down.
01:23:03.000 That's actually selfish that you wouldn't cut these trees down.
01:23:05.000 How dare you have kids?
01:23:05.000 It's a big problem in Gen Z specifically.
01:23:08.000 I'll just speak for my own generation.
01:23:09.000 I obviously have a lot of friends who are like...
01:23:11.000 You could say it's counterculture, but I think it's just culture now.
01:23:13.000 They already have children, 24 years old.
01:23:16.000 They're married.
01:23:16.000 It's amazing.
01:23:17.000 But there's also a lot of people my age, not necessarily in my circle, but they're really scared for a lot of different reasons.
01:23:23.000 Economically, they just don't know what world we're going to have.
01:23:26.000 If Joe Biden would have won, I would have been scared to bring kids into this world.
01:23:30.000 Are those people like...
01:23:31.000 People that you would say you align with politically?
01:23:34.000 No, absolutely not.
01:23:35.000 No, I am so excited to become a mother one day.
01:23:38.000 I want to have as many children as I can financially and physically have, and then a ton of cats and dogs and horses.
01:23:43.000 I want the whole picket fence, everything about that.
01:23:46.000 I think having kids is the biggest blessing in the whole wide world.
01:23:49.000 And I think when you talk about chopping down roots, it's different because it's not putting any down.
01:23:53.000 And I think people just have so much instant gratification in the 21st century.
01:23:58.000 If you're not feeling good, you could scroll on TikTok.
01:23:59.000 You could watch Netflix.
01:24:00.000 You can buy a movie on your phone, order something on Amazon.
01:24:04.000 There's so many replacements for what used to be having kids, having meaning.
01:24:08.000 And I think what all of this comes down to is just a lack of religion.
01:24:11.000 And when that's taken out of society or taken out of people's life, they're constantly looking for things to fulfill that void.
01:24:17.000 And children is a huge part of religion, especially in Judaism.
01:24:21.000 Communication and God, that whole arena will take you away from the distraction.
01:24:27.000 It got me to...
01:24:28.000 Stopped playing video games for two years of my life when I was just obsessed with communicating about what Jesus was talking about.
01:24:35.000 Like, I wanted to carry the torch.
01:24:36.000 That is, that is like, that's a big inspiration, man.
01:24:39.000 I guess it's, I guess that's religion.
01:24:41.000 I never really thought of it as religion.
01:24:43.000 Just more about a lot of the ideas within some of these Judeo-Christian religions that I was so familiar with.
01:24:48.000 Yeah.
01:24:49.000 But it's more about the communication.
01:24:51.000 But it's having it be a part of your life as opposed to when there's nothing there.
01:24:54.000 I don't think you feel a need to have kids.
01:24:56.000 I think...
01:24:57.000 That's separate from the concerns that people have, because my generation, we don't know what the future is going to look like.
01:25:02.000 Thank God we have Trump, because I would have, like...
01:25:05.000 You can't really homeschool Jewish-wise.
01:25:08.000 Like, it's just very...
01:25:09.000 I'm sure you could, but it's very difficult to, like, homeschool yeshiva.
01:25:11.000 And I was not going to be sending my children to learn that it's normal to be transgender in kindergarten and cut off your body.
01:25:18.000 What's yeshiva?
01:25:19.000 Yeshiva is Jewish school.
01:25:20.000 So you learn, like, Hebrew and English.
01:25:22.000 You learn...
01:25:24.000 The Talmud, the Tanakh, all the things that everybody on X claims to be experts on.
01:25:28.000 You learn those over about 13 years, and yeah, it's just like a Christian school, but for Jews.
01:25:35.000 CCD, we called it.
01:25:36.000 Oh, I remember CCD. What does that stand for?
01:25:39.000 I don't even remember.
01:25:40.000 It starts for charge-coupled device.
01:25:43.000 Go deeper.
01:25:44.000 It was also called catechism.
01:25:46.000 We're bringing God and science together.
01:25:47.000 Is that a pager, BP? Confraternity of Christian Doctrine.
01:25:51.000 But no one ever said that when we were kids.
01:25:54.000 And, you know, to be honest, we always kind of felt bad for the kids who had to go to CCD because it meant they were in school on the weekends.
01:25:59.000 We had school until 5 p.m.
01:26:01.000 every single day.
01:26:02.000 8 a.m.
01:26:02.000 until 5.30.
01:26:04.000 Saturday and Sunday also?
01:26:05.000 No.
01:26:05.000 That's Shabbat.
01:26:06.000 Friday, Saturday, you're off.
01:26:08.000 Yeah, this country has lost its family tradition.
01:26:11.000 Yeah.
01:26:12.000 And we used to, way back in the day, gather at the churches.
01:26:16.000 That's where we would center our culture.
01:26:19.000 People would talk to each other and get...
01:26:21.000 Imagine this.
01:26:22.000 Small village.
01:26:23.000 Guy's a blacksmith.
01:26:24.000 Another guy's a farmer.
01:26:25.000 One guy's a baker.
01:26:26.000 And they all mind their own business.
01:26:28.000 Watch The Patriot with Mel Gibson.
01:26:30.000 I love that movie.
01:26:31.000 Because there's a scene where they're like, mail came and they're all excited.
01:26:34.000 And they're like, oh boy, can we go to town?
01:26:37.000 Most of your life was just spent on your property, on your farm.
01:26:40.000 Man, that sounds real fun, doesn't it?
01:26:42.000 Waking up, taking care of the animals, nice summer nights, little fire going, and having food with the family.
01:26:47.000 Then Gandalf rose into town, smoking out all the hobbits.
01:26:50.000 Sure.
01:26:51.000 But then what happens is, you rarely would go to town.
01:26:54.000 They would go to church on Sunday.
01:26:57.000 They would all meet once a week, and that's where people talked and shared ideas, and that was the hubbuff culture.
01:27:02.000 It's gone.
01:27:03.000 Now it's just people in...
01:27:05.000 Online?
01:27:05.000 It's not.
01:27:06.000 There's so much online communication.
01:27:07.000 I used to be obsessed with it.
01:27:09.000 I was like, the future is online.
01:27:11.000 And it's not, because there's this really funny meme where someone wrote, you know, 1990, guy wants to bang a toaster.
01:27:19.000 Gets smacked upside the head and says, knock it off.
01:27:23.000 2024, guy wants to bang a toaster, goes online, finds a thousand other people, builds a community, and now he has some weird crackpot, you know, mental disorder.
01:27:31.000 Oh, it was sort of like...
01:27:33.000 Your local community is like an immune system, a psychological immune system that'll stop you from...
01:27:37.000 Town Square.
01:27:38.000 It's not about an immune system.
01:27:40.000 It's about...
01:27:41.000 It's about you meet with someone, and he says, I believe there is a blight coming.
01:27:49.000 And you go, wow, thanks for letting me know.
01:27:51.000 We'll have to burn some of our fields if we spot it.
01:27:54.000 Thanks for the upfront warning.
01:27:55.000 The ideas, the conversations, and the things you cared about were centered around your community.
01:28:00.000 They say that a human is a summation of the five people who surround them.
01:28:04.000 Well, you are correct in that it's all online now, but it's not community building.
01:28:08.000 It's people choosing to associate with their worst volition.
01:28:13.000 Wow, that's deep, because your community isn't always people you've chosen.
01:28:16.000 Exactly.
01:28:17.000 Sometimes people you don't like.
01:28:18.000 And so in a community when you're going to church, oh, there's Edna.
01:28:22.000 She's always yelling at us.
01:28:22.000 Nobody likes her.
01:28:23.000 And that's a part of the interactions you have, learning how to deal with this.
01:28:27.000 Now millennials are growing up going, someone said a mean word to me.
01:28:31.000 They should go to jail.
01:28:32.000 Or they're like, I just remove myself when something doesn't go well.
01:28:35.000 I think that's another way of, like, avoiding things.
01:28:37.000 Those people are like, I'm just so removed from drama.
01:28:39.000 If anything doesn't go my way, I'm going to walk away.
01:28:41.000 No, conflict resolution and conflict management is an important part of being an adult in every single aspect of your life.
01:28:47.000 I want to walk away.
01:28:48.000 I said stop talking to me.
01:28:50.000 You have to stop talking to me because I said so.
01:28:52.000 People are just generation soft serve.
01:28:54.000 That's what I've been calling it.
01:28:56.000 Conflict resolution is the center of having children.
01:28:59.000 Children are a nexus of conflict.
01:29:02.000 And a partner, like a husband or a wife also.
01:29:04.000 I hear they say that...
01:29:05.000 Two people will test each other and see if they can handle conflict before they have babies to be like, are you going to be able to handle the kids?
01:29:12.000 Because they're going to be a lot crazier than what I'm doing right now.
01:29:15.000 It's like Taylor Swift with Travis Kelsey losing the Super Bowl.
01:29:17.000 It's a real test now.
01:29:19.000 Because he won the last two times, so everything was great.
01:29:22.000 How are they doing, by the way?
01:29:23.000 We'll find out.
01:29:24.000 This is the first real test in their relationship.
01:29:26.000 Everybody thought he was going to propose, and now they have to see what it's like with him walking out in his little disco suit, pouting.
01:29:32.000 You know, like, oh, we lost, buggy-uggy.
01:29:34.000 What are they, three years in?
01:29:35.000 I believe so.
01:29:38.000 Seven years is another big one.
01:29:40.000 I always thought two years and seven years were like...
01:29:42.000 If you're dating somebody for seven years, you gotta leave.
01:29:46.000 You should be married.
01:29:48.000 Maybe that's why there's big problems.
01:29:51.000 I don't know if there's always big problems at seven years.
01:29:54.000 Back to talking about this internet stuff.
01:29:57.000 AOC as a politician shouldn't exist.
01:29:59.000 I agree.
01:30:00.000 AOC gets about, I think the stats were 98% of her donations come from outside of her own district.
01:30:06.000 Yeah, representative democracy breaks down with the internet.
01:30:09.000 It sure does.
01:30:10.000 AOC's community is, I'll describe it like this.
01:30:14.000 Every city has 10, we would call, deviant individuals.
01:30:18.000 So a small community, let's say there's 100 people, and 90 of them, they're all slightly different, but 90% of them hardworking, go to church every Sunday.
01:30:27.000 I'm saying like, you go back in time.
01:30:29.000 Ten of them were rapscallions.
01:30:30.000 They were bandits.
01:30:31.000 They were ne'er-do-ells, and they had no political power.
01:30:35.000 That's it.
01:30:36.000 Somebody would try and run for office and say, I believe the ne'er-do-ells should have the power, and they'd twirl their mustache, and then the 90% of people would be like, get out of here.
01:30:43.000 Yep.
01:30:43.000 Along comes AOC, and she says, I want to rally all the ne'er-do-ells.
01:30:49.000 And she sees ten of them, and she speaks to them in public, and they cannot muster enough money to get her elected.
01:30:55.000 She goes online, says, tell all of your friends.
01:30:58.000 All of the nasty, deviant individuals, the people who are lazy, who are Marxists, who are naive, who are dumb, who are jealous, who are vindictive, all pool their resources from outside of her district, send her money to her, where she then uses it against her district.
01:31:15.000 AOC uses that money to hire staff, and it is effectively, I see it no different than if every country of the world donated money to Democrats to get them elected.
01:31:28.000 It's a problem with the town square thing.
01:31:30.000 I think it comes back to that.
01:31:31.000 It's a society.
01:31:32.000 We keep running into this.
01:31:33.000 Same with, like, inappropriate things being posted on X. I don't know if I could use a word on the stream, but we all know what I'm talking about.
01:31:39.000 If we saw that in real life, if there was two people doing inappropriate things in public, we'd go up and be like, hey, you're going to jail.
01:31:45.000 There's children around here.
01:31:46.000 Of course, public indecency, all of that stuff.
01:31:48.000 But now, because it's all online, we think that it's better.
01:31:52.000 We think it's replacing everything that used to exist, but we don't have those societal checks and balances.
01:31:56.000 And so people like AOC, who in a real merit based society would be a nothing sandwich.
01:32:02.000 Nobody would ever talk to her.
01:32:03.000 Think about her.
01:32:04.000 She would be absolutely nothing.
01:32:05.000 She's able to escape that and feel so important and so special and become a celebrity in her own right because of the online abilities.
01:32:12.000 And that's a big thing, which I would even make it get your I'm curious to get your thoughts on this.
01:32:17.000 I've said for the last two years, I'm really overwhelmed with the violence in this country.
01:32:21.000 Everything, every news story is about the most violent, horrific acts.
01:32:24.000 Unless it's an active shooting, I don't think that specifically school shootings, unless it's honoring the victims, I don't think shootings in public should be local news stories.
01:32:33.000 I think that if it's in your area, it's something that matters in that neighborhood.
01:32:37.000 It should be important.
01:32:38.000 But broadcasting things in Nebraska, a shooting, what am I in New York going to be able to do about that besides feel horrible, feel paranoid and scared?
01:32:45.000 It's like all coming together and making us, the globalization is...
01:32:49.000 Creating a lot more anxiety and fear.
01:32:51.000 So there's two reasons for that, right?
01:32:53.000 First of all, the left wants to see laws passed against firearm ownership.
01:32:58.000 So the idea that if you can convince the population that there is a massive problem with firearms, then you're more likely to get support for legislation, first of all.
01:33:08.000 And second of all, anxiety is something that the left also wants people to experience.
01:33:13.000 because I've said this multiple times on the show.
01:33:15.000 Happy people don't engage in revolutionary activities.
01:33:20.000 If you have a society that's happy, that has hope, that believes in its future, that's comfortable with itself, there's no reason for a revolution, right?
01:33:32.000 But the left wants to see revolutions.
01:33:34.000 The left wants to tear down the society that we live in.
01:33:36.000 It thinks that capitalism is immoral.
01:33:38.000 It thinks that our society is a bad society.
01:33:41.000 We're based on racism.
01:33:43.000 We're based on bigotry.
01:33:43.000 And so because of those things, the more people that the left can convince that we live in a terrible society, in a uniquely awful society, the more people will engage in activities that will help the left get what they want, which is essentially which boils the more people will engage in activities that will help the left get what they want, But the narrative is we want to see a revolution.
01:34:08.000 So it's the twofold.
01:34:09.000 get gun gun control and also to get people unhappy enough to engage in political activism they want to keep people on that line where they're just as miserable and doomsday enough to be like the world's gonna end but where they have enough hope where it's like but if i donate all my money to the dnc then it won't end i can fight climate change by donating 15 a month because it's a perfect sweet spot of anxiety exactly because it's about it's about attaining power if you tell people the truth like when you mentioned climate change if you tell people the truth about climate change right
01:34:37.000 the united states can't fix climate change if the narrative that the left presents were true the united states can't do anything about climate change because china and india both together have three billion people the united states has 330 million there's 10 times the amount of people in china than there are in um in the united states so the idea that the that the the chinese and indians are going to do what the united states votes for
01:35:06.000 it's ridiculous so if their if their premise is right the world is going to be destroyed be destroyed and the seas will boil if we don't do something about climate change, the proper course of action is invade China and invade India and prevent them from growing their economies using fossil fuels because they're destroying the earth.
01:35:28.000 That's the logical conclusion that you'd come to.
01:35:32.000 The US isn't going to pass enough laws to do anything about it and you're not going to be able to kumbaya, enough Chinese and Indians.
01:35:39.000 To say, okay, we're not going to have our society develop into a modern economy and a modern society.
01:35:47.000 We're going to allow millions of people to die every year.
01:35:50.000 That's literally the USAID strategy?
01:35:53.000 Yes.
01:35:53.000 Is like, dump as much money to gender studies and we'll get the Indians to start singing Kumbaya so they stop burning fuel and polluting everything.
01:36:00.000 Insane.
01:36:02.000 A lot of those, when they'll donate 50 million USAID to gender trans dance festivals or whatever, you're like, what are they trying to promote?
01:36:12.000 It's because they've done research on the uninitiated voters in that country.
01:36:17.000 And there's a large segment of this type of person, which in this instance would be the trans activists.
01:36:22.000 So they're like, OK, we've got to get those people.
01:36:23.000 We've got to manipulate them with music so that they'll vote the way we want them to vote.
01:36:27.000 And that's why you get these weird industries that are getting funded.
01:36:31.000 It's because those are the uninitiated voters.
01:36:32.000 They're trying to co-opt.
01:36:33.000 Well, it's it's it's cultural poison.
01:36:37.000 Poison.
01:36:38.000 You can maybe call it that.
01:36:39.000 A cultural venom.
01:36:41.000 You inject it into a society and watch the culture create a behavioral sink.
01:36:48.000 Oh, yeah.
01:36:48.000 Two-way win for them.
01:36:51.000 So it was really funny because I asked, I can't remember when we were on the show, like, how come Trump didn't gut USAID the first time around?
01:36:58.000 And I don't know if it was you, Phil, but someone was like, you really think Mike Pompeo wanted to...
01:37:01.000 Stop CIA operations.
01:37:03.000 It's actually really simple what they're doing.
01:37:05.000 You go to the average American and say, why are we doing a gender puppet show in Peru or whatever?
01:37:09.000 And they're like, that's nuts.
01:37:10.000 Stop doing that.
01:37:11.000 The CIA, of course, is like, you don't understand we're poisoning the minds of other nations to suppress and damage them.
01:37:17.000 It's not working.
01:37:18.000 It's been a tremendous failure, but that's what they're doing.
01:37:20.000 Deborah, you said something interesting I agree with is that I don't think it's healthy to publicize local tragedies.
01:37:28.000 And I don't know.
01:37:30.000 How not to?
01:37:31.000 I mean, obviously we can do our part by not reporting on it.
01:37:34.000 But sometimes you want, like, if there's a flood and you want global attention.
01:37:38.000 If it's stuff that can, like, affect change or people can help.
01:37:42.000 Like, natural disasters, it's a natural disaster.
01:37:44.000 People all over the country want to be able to help.
01:37:46.000 They want to donate.
01:37:47.000 I donate to California.
01:37:48.000 Like, the wildfires, of course.
01:37:50.000 But when it's man-made tragedies, I think constantly broadcasting that.
01:37:56.000 It gets them clicks.
01:37:56.000 It's the negative news cycle.
01:37:58.000 But it's the same way that Ben Shapiro will never say the name of a school shooter or any kind of public mass shooter.
01:38:03.000 And then these news articles, like the fact that Luigi is a more common name than the actual name of the UnitedHealthcare CEO is despicable and it's horrifying and I hate that culture.
01:38:13.000 Was it a comedy show in New York the other night?
01:38:16.000 The guy made a joke.
01:38:17.000 He's like, it's the year of Luigi.
01:38:18.000 And everyone cheered.
01:38:19.000 I'm like, what the hell is going...
01:38:21.000 A man, a father shot dead in the street in cold blood.
01:38:24.000 For no reason.
01:38:25.000 For no reason.
01:38:26.000 By a maniac.
01:38:27.000 And you're gonna...
01:38:28.000 We have gone so far away from normalcy and it's crazy.
01:38:32.000 If you look at Luigi's...
01:38:34.000 His manifesto and stuff, he was...
01:38:36.000 He was a miserable person.
01:38:40.000 He was...
01:38:40.000 He was completely unhappy.
01:38:42.000 Horrible.
01:38:42.000 And that's why he did what he did.
01:38:43.000 Exactly.
01:38:44.000 Because only evil, miserable people do such horrible, evil acts.
01:38:47.000 Happy people don't kill people.
01:38:48.000 We are going to go to Super Chat.
01:38:49.000 So if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button?
01:38:52.000 Share the show with everyone you know.
01:38:54.000 And of course, the members-only show, which is going to be the Uncensored Call-In Show, will be coming up at 10 p.m.
01:39:01.000 on Rumble Premium.
01:39:02.000 So you can go to TimCastPremium.com and I'll redirect you right there to sign up.
01:39:06.000 So you can get a discount and access.
01:39:08.000 Those that are watching on Rumble, it'll be a seamless transition with a small 30 second or so intermission.
01:39:13.000 And then, of course, the Green Room show is up.
01:39:16.000 And ladies and gentlemen, we actually have a big announcement.
01:39:18.000 Finally, we were trying to do this for some time.
01:39:21.000 I believe we have two documentaries that are currently up.
01:39:25.000 Rumble.com slash Tim Pool for premium members.
01:39:28.000 Only two full-length documentaries infringed by John Dutois and Lauren Southern.
01:39:33.000 It may be a little outdated at this point because it was a couple of years ago.
01:39:35.000 These just went up.
01:39:37.000 We haven't promoted them or anything like that.
01:39:38.000 Premium only.
01:39:39.000 Hour and 41 minutes.
01:39:40.000 And then we have Game of Money.
01:39:41.000 Ben Stewart breaking down how money works.
01:39:44.000 It's really interesting.
01:39:45.000 This one's a bit more evergreen, we call it.
01:39:47.000 Evergreen means, you know, if you understand how the money is being used against you, and it's longstanding, it's historical, this one's going to be relevant for a lot longer.
01:39:58.000 I don't mean to disrespect the Lawrence Southerns infringed.
01:40:01.000 It's just that...
01:40:02.000 Donald Trump is president now, and he's, you know, had an executive order on Second Amendment, and some things have changed.
01:40:07.000 So that's important to understand.
01:40:08.000 But we are happy to get this out on an easier-to-access platform with much more viewership than just TimCast.com.
01:40:14.000 Now, everybody who's a Rumble Premium user, if you're a fan, if you're a Mug Club user, a fan, or you were watching Bongino or whatever, now we can get more people to see these documentaries.
01:40:23.000 And we are going to be producing, our goal is to get eight more in the next two years, every three months, have a full-length documentary.
01:40:30.000 Timcast Productions.
01:40:31.000 We're big fans.
01:40:32.000 I used to produce many docs and some longer series.
01:40:36.000 I think the longest I might have done was like 40. No, no, I think we did a two-hour one about the riots and what was going on in St. Louis and stuff.
01:40:44.000 I think it was close to two hours.
01:40:45.000 So I'm a fan of making documentaries.
01:40:47.000 I love doing it, and we're going to make a bunch more.
01:40:49.000 It's going to be epic, and I can't wait to get the next ones out.
01:40:52.000 We're just starting pre-production.
01:40:54.000 We're in the idea phase, but hopefully we'll have those up soon.
01:40:57.000 But for now, let's grab your Super Chats.
01:40:59.000 All right.
01:41:00.000 Josh McCluskey says, I tried emailing support, been a member since the start, can't ever join Discord.
01:41:05.000 Now I can't watch the after show.
01:41:06.000 I will say, for this week, there's a taper, an overlap period where the members-only show will be on TimCast.com.
01:41:14.000 Because we want to make sure nobody misses anything, and we can handle all of your support emails.
01:41:18.000 There's a lot of people, so I do apologize, but we have a team desperately trying to get everything done, and we don't have a call center in India or anything like that that could handle all of this.
01:41:27.000 It means we have physical human beings here in West Virginia who are trying to answer as many emails as possible, and we're getting through them, so I apologize if we don't get to you soon enough.
01:41:35.000 But if you haven't...
01:41:37.000 If you want to be in the Discord server where you can call in and come to our events that we're planning, it's a community-built thing.
01:41:42.000 It's not an exclusive content thing.
01:41:44.000 Timcast.com Discord is where that membership is.
01:41:47.000 They are separate.
01:41:49.000 And try again now because it should be updated.
01:41:52.000 It should be working.
01:41:53.000 You should get a call center and a mine.
01:41:55.000 Apparently that's the thing to do.
01:41:56.000 I heard about that.
01:41:57.000 In the limestone mine?
01:42:00.000 Yeah.
01:42:00.000 Do you guys remember the name of that?
01:42:02.000 No.
01:42:03.000 They have to get a number two pencil.
01:42:04.000 To fill out all the people that are actually members?
01:42:07.000 Apparently it's like an underground city.
01:42:08.000 It's like an SAT. It has to only be number two.
01:42:10.000 This is where, Elon mentioned, this is where in order for people to resign, they have to send pieces of paper down a limestone mine.
01:42:18.000 And if the mine shaft is out of order, no one can retire.
01:42:21.000 A thousand people a month, that's it.
01:42:23.000 The elevator slows it down.
01:42:25.000 Literally just the elevator taking a long time.
01:42:28.000 Whose idea was this to take a mine and say, let's put people from the government inside of there?
01:42:34.000 Who decided it was a bad idea to upgrade it?
01:42:37.000 It's been going since the 50s, apparently.
01:42:39.000 We got this from Torgatron.
01:42:40.000 He says, El Salvador dude commented on judges blocking Trump.
01:42:43.000 Same thing happened there.
01:42:44.000 They impeached the judges and moved forward.
01:42:47.000 Misty Mountains is my new favorite coffee.
01:42:49.000 Graphene no longer my dream.
01:42:50.000 Interesting.
01:42:51.000 We had an interesting idea.
01:42:53.000 I think this was in the Green Room show.
01:42:55.000 Watch our Green Room show on Rumble Premium where someone recommended making Ian's Graphene Nightmare.
01:43:02.000 High acidity coffee.
01:43:04.000 The highest acidity of all.
01:43:05.000 It's just painful to drink.
01:43:07.000 It's like drinking pure grain alcohol.
01:43:12.000 Well, I was saying we should expand our lower acidity offerings with blends.
01:43:17.000 But Misty Mountains, of course, castbrew.com.
01:43:19.000 And it looks like we've got some franchises that are up in the works and they're going to be popping up soon.
01:43:24.000 So it's cool stuff happening.
01:43:26.000 And, you know, I'll try to explain as much as I can whenever I can.
01:43:31.000 The Timcats Discord, it's this community of 20-plus thousand individuals, probably more, and it's totally separate from a premium content house.
01:43:40.000 So Rumble Premium is where all our members-only content will be, and there's going to be a lot.
01:43:45.000 We are going nuts.
01:43:46.000 We're going to make documentaries.
01:43:49.000 We're planning a comedy.
01:43:50.000 We had Cast Castle, which was these comedy bits where we mocked what was going on, and those were extremely popular.
01:43:56.000 It was a large portion of our base on Timcats.com.
01:44:00.000 And we just struggle to make that work.
01:44:03.000 We're going to bring back these comedic bits.
01:44:05.000 We're going to involve more personalities.
01:44:07.000 We had one episode of Cast Castle where Dr. Drew was locked in the basement until he starved to death.
01:44:12.000 Shout out to Dr. Drew for being a part of our little comedic bits.
01:44:15.000 And short films.
01:44:17.000 We've got plans for crazy short films, sci-fi stuff.
01:44:20.000 We're going to be producing just a ton of content.
01:44:23.000 So for those that are interested in the community-based growth stuff where we're at the Cast Brew franchising, we're going to have the members-only Culture War show where you come on and actually join the debate with higher-profile personalities, and that's all going to be through our Discord server.
01:44:39.000 Of course, the content will be on Rumble.
01:44:42.000 Nicholas Roberts asks, what's the difference between Rumble versus Tim Kassab?
01:44:45.000 That was basically it.
01:44:46.000 I will stress, it's because...
01:44:48.000 TimCast membership consisted of two things.
01:44:50.000 You were in the Discord server, chatting with people, interacting, making friends, meeting, starting projects.
01:44:55.000 And that's what a large portion of our focus had been.
01:44:58.000 And then there was the documentaries, the content, the comedy, behind-the-scenes stuff.
01:45:02.000 Rumble isn't necessarily the same thing as how we're doing our community growth stuff with Casper Franchising, on-the-ground events and things like that.
01:45:10.000 So we basically just had to keep them separate.
01:45:13.000 But anybody who was a member before we launched with Rumble gets Rumble Premium free.
01:45:18.000 You just have to use whatever email you use at TimCast.com, use on Rumble, and you'll get it free.
01:45:22.000 There are a lot of people who lapsed their memberships, however, and they've been asking, and I don't have a good answer for you, but I will talk with the team over at Rumble and see what they think.
01:45:30.000 And maybe there's something we do.
01:45:31.000 I don't know that we can do anything, but we just want as many people as possible involved, part of this expansion and this movement.
01:45:40.000 I am a little biased.
01:45:42.000 But with all due respect to Spotify...
01:45:45.000 We do post on Spotify.
01:45:46.000 They only recently launched video streams.
01:45:50.000 Video podcasting has taken over.
01:45:52.000 Trump won the podcast presidency, and Rumble has been there longer than anybody else.
01:45:57.000 This is a fact.
01:45:58.000 YouTube actually banned and suppressed people, myself included, and that's largely what helped Rumble expand as rapidly as they did.
01:46:05.000 If we are now looking at what the future of podcasting is going to be, which is video-hosted, live, and recorded video-on-demand shows.
01:46:13.000 Rumble already is on the forefront of that.
01:46:17.000 YouTube is trying to recover what they've already censored and burned down.
01:46:20.000 They're gaining.
01:46:21.000 They have a big platform.
01:46:22.000 Apple is nowhere in sight.
01:46:24.000 And Spotify is trying to get into this game.
01:46:26.000 Rumble's been there the longest time.
01:46:28.000 Maybe we can read some Rumble rants in the future at some point.
01:46:31.000 I like that.
01:46:32.000 We are going to when we switch over to the premium.
01:46:35.000 That's right.
01:46:36.000 Oh, okay, cool.
01:46:37.000 One of our members suggested that.
01:46:39.000 But we'll grab more of your Super Chats.
01:46:41.000 X, Y, and Z says, correction, Tim, it's the insurance companies that push the annoying laws.
01:46:46.000 Anytime there's a law that you'll find invasive, insurance is behind it.
01:46:49.000 I would agree with you, actually.
01:46:50.000 But I would say it's, I don't know if I would say it's 50-50 or one is more than the other.
01:46:58.000 Insurance companies do lobby for laws.
01:47:00.000 For instance, why do we have to wear seatbelts when we drive our cars or we get tickets?
01:47:03.000 Insurance companies lobbied for that.
01:47:05.000 They went to the government and said, can we make it illegal to not wear a seatbelt?
01:47:08.000 Because whenever there's an accident...
01:47:10.000 And someone gets hurt, we have to pay a ridiculous amount of money.
01:47:12.000 But if everybody was forced to wear a seatbelt, our costs would go way down.
01:47:16.000 Now you have to wear seatbelts.
01:47:18.000 Interestingly, I don't know if you guys have ever seen the viral video from way back in the day when they banned drinking and driving.
01:47:23.000 Have you seen this?
01:47:24.000 I don't know.
01:47:26.000 They're interviewing people in cars, and they're like, this is ridiculous.
01:47:30.000 What, I can't have a beer?
01:47:31.000 I'm not impaired.
01:47:32.000 I'm just having a beer.
01:47:33.000 Now they're telling me I can't have a beer.
01:47:34.000 I'm leaving the bar.
01:47:35.000 What am I supposed to do?
01:47:35.000 How am I getting home?
01:47:36.000 This is ridiculous.
01:47:38.000 Is that what, yeah, he calls it communism.
01:47:41.000 Well, they didn't have Uber back then, to be fair.
01:47:43.000 It was a different world when you had to get a ride from a friend.
01:47:46.000 Yeah, they said Uber saved, people in LA were like, you know, Charles Manson killed rock and roll, but Uber saved it.
01:47:54.000 You know, do you know what the last rock song to hit number one was?
01:47:58.000 We've talked about it before.
01:47:59.000 I know, yeah.
01:48:00.000 I sing it.
01:48:00.000 The last rock song to hit number one on Billboard.
01:48:03.000 You know what it is, Phil?
01:48:04.000 Was it Creed?
01:48:05.000 No.
01:48:06.000 No, that was way too long ago.
01:48:08.000 That was a while ago.
01:48:09.000 It was Nickelback.
01:48:09.000 How You Remind Me.
01:48:10.000 Yes.
01:48:11.000 Nickelback.
01:48:12.000 That's why I sang it solo.
01:48:13.000 I wasn't loudly confident like you.
01:48:15.000 The last time a rock song was number one.
01:48:17.000 Nickelback is a phenomenal band, and I will fight anyone that says they're not.
01:48:21.000 I agree.
01:48:21.000 I think that's just common sense.
01:48:23.000 Yes.
01:48:23.000 It's this weird...
01:48:26.000 Propaganda bullcrap.
01:48:27.000 It was Democrat propaganda.
01:48:28.000 Yeah, it was.
01:48:28.000 It was progressives making fun of Rahm Emanuel, and a guy held up a sign saying, Rahm Emanuel likes Nickelback.
01:48:33.000 And then they all just, like, NPCs march in locks.
01:48:36.000 Nickelback is bad.
01:48:37.000 Nickelback rocks.
01:48:38.000 Listen, who did the bit?
01:48:42.000 Someone did a bit where they were like, it was either Rick and Morty, it was Family Guy.
01:48:47.000 They were like, let's end this once and for all.
01:48:49.000 And they pointed out all the accolades, all of the sales, all of the money Nickelback has made.
01:48:53.000 And it's like, you may not like them.
01:48:55.000 But they are one of the most successful rock bands in history.
01:48:58.000 You may say you don't like them, but chances are you effing like them.
01:49:01.000 I gotta be honest.
01:49:03.000 I'm not a fan of Nickelback.
01:49:05.000 However, their rendition of Devil Went Down to Georgia, I actually am a big fan of, despite the fact they cut the chorus.
01:49:10.000 How you remind me, you gotta listen to it again, the verse, the pre-chorus, and the chorus are all hooks.
01:49:16.000 It is just a grand slam song that is truly epically creative.
01:49:21.000 Yeah, but Photograph is real bad.
01:49:22.000 I always see the meme where he's like holding up the photograph and then it just goes on repeat.
01:49:27.000 That's pretty funny.
01:49:28.000 Alright, let's read some more.
01:49:30.000 Corbin26 says, With AI? AI is nuts, bro.
01:49:44.000 Whoa, dude.
01:49:45.000 When you're like, AI, make me a game like Skyrim, but where I'm a dragon and I can fly around and it's in the future.
01:49:50.000 And then like 33 minutes later, you've got the game and you're in it soon.
01:49:55.000 Wait, if they can make stuff, I have been...
01:49:57.000 I was going to say dying.
01:49:58.000 That's not a good word to use.
01:49:59.000 I have been looking for somebody to code for the White House, Trump's press website, every time they post a new press release.
01:50:05.000 I want somebody to code something that will give us alerts.
01:50:08.000 AI will do that in 30 seconds.
01:50:10.000 That's super easy.
01:50:11.000 Like a bot, basically, to keep that.
01:50:13.000 How do you get AI to send you notifications?
01:50:15.000 Go to ChatGPT and type in, make me an app for my website that whenever a press release comes out, it will send a notification to me.
01:50:22.000 And it'll go, okay.
01:50:24.000 But then how do you take the code for it?
01:50:26.000 It'll tell you what to do.
01:50:27.000 You can literally go on...
01:50:29.000 I would suggest Grok.
01:50:31.000 I don't know if Grok can do it.
01:50:32.000 You don't need to learn to code anymore.
01:50:34.000 No, I literally studied code in college.
01:50:35.000 We would code all the political...
01:50:36.000 The studies that you see, the polls, I would physically code those.
01:50:41.000 For what?
01:50:42.000 We are...
01:50:43.000 Someone already...
01:50:45.000 There's a video where someone went on GPT and said, program a game of snake where two snakes compete against each other.
01:50:51.000 And it wrote it.
01:50:53.000 It wrote the program.
01:50:54.000 People...
01:50:54.000 So, last year...
01:50:56.000 They were like, hey, you can use ChatGPT and these large language models to program.
01:51:01.000 And they were kind of crummy.
01:51:02.000 It is progressing so insanely quickly, it's terrifying.
01:51:06.000 We are probably a year or two away from being able to say, you voice the text, you just say, you press the side button on your phone and say, render me an episode, a TV show about Spider-Man and Ian being best friends and then going to Vegas and winning a jackpot.
01:51:22.000 And then it'll go rendering, and the thing will, you know, will render, and then it'll make the film.
01:51:27.000 There's a travel channel on YouTube that uses my voice, AI voice.
01:51:31.000 It uses you?
01:51:31.000 Yeah, that's what people keep messaging it to me, and they're like, they're using your voice, Ian, and it does sound like me.
01:51:36.000 It's not 100%, but I'm like, God damn, that does sound like me.
01:51:39.000 You can go to, you can do computer-aided machining now.
01:51:42.000 So if you have an AI, you can just tell it what you need it to machine, you know?
01:51:50.000 Cut these particular dimensions off this, blah, blah, blah.
01:51:53.000 Drill holes in these positions.
01:51:55.000 And it will do it all for you.
01:51:58.000 People don't realize how far AI has progressed in the past year.
01:52:03.000 And what's going to happen in the next year is going to be insane.
01:52:06.000 We've been talking about this a little bit on the show.
01:52:08.000 But coming in the next year or two, you're going to have Androids for sale around $20,000.
01:52:15.000 That are actually able to do things like, go do my laundry.
01:52:20.000 And it will go into your room, pick up your laundry.
01:52:23.000 Like the Tesla robot?
01:52:24.000 Yeah.
01:52:25.000 And the point, the really, really important point that people need to understand is, when it's like $20,000, that's like a car.
01:52:34.000 That's $500, $600, $700 a month.
01:52:36.000 And people will say, I will pay $600 a month for 72 months to not have to do my laundry.
01:52:43.000 And not have to go and do this and do that.
01:52:46.000 The robotic, the AI, the robots are already here.
01:52:50.000 There's already that technology.
01:52:51.000 The AI put inside of it, that's going to change the whole game because everyone's going to want one.
01:52:57.000 The more they produce, the cost of production goes down.
01:52:59.000 It's going to change the world.
01:53:02.000 Let's grab some more.
01:53:03.000 This is important.
01:53:05.000 Rionin says, Tim, you should go organic with your coffee.
01:53:07.000 I'm going to pause you right there.
01:53:09.000 It is organic.
01:53:09.000 It is.
01:53:10.000 There are certain, like, flavored ones that we do that they're not organic because they have flavors in them.
01:53:15.000 Nothing you can do about it.
01:53:16.000 So, like, the Mr. Bocas Pumpkin Spice Experience.
01:53:18.000 Well, the coffee, yeah, you're drinking it.
01:53:20.000 It's not organic.
01:53:21.000 It is not because...
01:53:22.000 I'm gonna pass away.
01:53:23.000 Well, it's because it's flavored.
01:53:24.000 Yeah, no, it's delicious.
01:53:25.000 But all the other stuff is organic.
01:53:27.000 I prefer organic.
01:53:28.000 I'm not sure about Ian's Graphene Dream, but I'm pretty sure it's organic.
01:53:30.000 It says organic on the bag, yeah.
01:53:31.000 It is.
01:53:31.000 Because it's a certification process.
01:53:33.000 It takes a long time.
01:53:34.000 So it is.
01:53:35.000 And he says...
01:53:36.000 It's one of the worst food and drink for pesticides, and you can afford it.
01:53:40.000 Surprise!
01:53:41.000 Ian has never mentioned it.
01:53:42.000 It's organic on the bag.
01:53:43.000 All the bags.
01:53:44.000 If it's not on there, it's usually like a flavored one.
01:53:47.000 Semper Ives says, having trouble signing into Rumble with my Timcast login and pass.
01:53:51.000 Looks like I still have to pay when making an account.
01:53:53.000 Can you make a guide?
01:53:54.000 Let's go.
01:53:55.000 What you do is, using the same email that you used for Timcast, create a free account on Rumble, and it will be premium.
01:54:03.000 You know, I had an issue.
01:54:06.000 Because I have the same email address on both websites and I went to Rumble and it said you must be a premium member.
01:54:12.000 Then we're going to have support fix it for you.
01:54:14.000 I mean, it's not perfect.
01:54:16.000 The overwhelming majority of people have had no problem.
01:54:19.000 It's been seamless.
01:54:20.000 But, you know.
01:54:22.000 Maybe we can figure out why it didn't work and that way we can fix a bunch of them at once.
01:54:25.000 Yeah.
01:54:26.000 And so if you are having issues, I do apologize.
01:54:28.000 It's the deep state.
01:54:29.000 They're trying to take you down.
01:54:30.000 Probably.
01:54:31.000 Yeah.
01:54:31.000 So Leah Antak says, what if I already have a Rumble account?
01:54:34.000 I haven't seen the premium with my Timcast account.
01:54:37.000 So if you're not using the same email, that's what it really is.
01:54:41.000 So the email that you log into Timcast with, create a free account on Rumble with that email, and it will give you premium for free so long as you remain a member of Timcast.com.
01:54:51.000 And moving forward, you know, I know it's kind of confusing, but Timcast.com membership is largely just community events and Discord server.
01:55:00.000 And all of our exclusive content is on Rumble Premium.
01:55:03.000 I know it's kind of weird, but there was no...
01:55:05.000 You know, one of the challenges we had when having these conversations is we will never shut down the Discord.
01:55:10.000 And if anything happens, we're going to create a new community for people to gather.
01:55:14.000 We are setting up these coffee franchise locations because we want people to be able to meet in real life.
01:55:17.000 We are doing the Culture War, where the Culture War show, we're setting it up right now, and hopefully we get one in the next month, maybe two.
01:55:24.000 I've got to be honest, guys.
01:55:24.000 I've got a baby on the way, and so I might disappear for a week or so.
01:55:28.000 But we're hoping...
01:55:29.000 Maybe by April, we will have the very first culture war as we've envisioned it the whole time, which is we book a guest.
01:55:37.000 Let's say we get, you know, Cenk Uygur.
01:55:40.000 He says, I'm going to come and I'm going to debate Ian and Phil on religion.
01:55:45.000 Members, if you're a member, you can come to the event.
01:55:48.000 There's no public ticket sales.
01:55:50.000 It's going to be, if you're a member, you can RSVP and it's not going to cost you a dime.
01:55:54.000 There's going to be limited seating.
01:55:55.000 When you show up, You can submit your arguments.
01:55:59.000 Then our, you know, MC host will go through it.
01:56:03.000 And then we are going to bring up every 10 or so minutes another individual to come and sit down with us and be a part of the debate.
01:56:11.000 Some of it will be ridiculous and terrible.
01:56:13.000 Some of it will be brilliant.
01:56:15.000 And what we want to do with this is, for one...
01:56:18.000 We want to get everyone involved and make it more...
01:56:21.000 We don't want it to be super elitist where it's like only the famous personalities are ever doing these things.
01:56:26.000 There's a diamond in the rough out there somewhere.
01:56:28.000 So we want to give everybody a chance to be a part of the conversation.
01:56:32.000 But we also know, because we were having this conversation, we're like, you know, there's a lot of people out there that are probably extremely intelligent and talented and have just never gotten into the fray and had these debates.
01:56:42.000 So we fully expect that periodically when we do these shows...
01:56:46.000 There are going to be people who have their big break when they come on, engage in this debate, and absolutely roast everybody.
01:56:52.000 And then the clip goes viral, and they're like, dude, did you see this guy roast Tim Poole?
01:56:55.000 Wow, liberal, conservative, don't care.
01:56:58.000 Typically what happens is you have a handful of prominent, quick-weighted personalities.
01:57:02.000 That doesn't mean these people are all correct.
01:57:04.000 So we were like, we need to make this a communal thing.
01:57:07.000 Get more people involved.
01:57:09.000 They'll bring their friends.
01:57:10.000 We will expand this sphere of influence outside of the mainstream corporate establishment.
01:57:14.000 It's win-win-win for everybody.
01:57:16.000 So that's the Timcast Discord community.
01:57:18.000 And then, you know, I'm really excited for it.
01:57:21.000 Let's grab a couple more here.
01:57:24.000 All right.
01:57:24.000 I can't read your name because it appears to be in Chinese.
01:57:26.000 Or is that Japanese?
01:57:27.000 I think it's...
01:57:28.000 Chinese.
01:57:29.000 You need to make a series where it's an alternate timeline, and Ian sells enough coffee to go to college.
01:57:33.000 Then he sits through the STEM classes.
01:57:35.000 Instead of teaching anything of use, he learns DEI. That's a good one.
01:57:39.000 Well, my pitch has been on the morning show, and I'm like, go to Casper and buy Ian's Graphene Dream.
01:57:45.000 I'm like, guys, you are buying so much of this coffee, you're putting Ian through college, and you know he needs it.
01:57:49.000 And then I become a plantation owner, but I only hire white people to work on the plantation.
01:57:55.000 Because it's DEI. Yeah, DEI. It would be racist.
01:57:58.000 It would be racist not to at that point.
01:58:00.000 Well, no, it would be racist to hire black people.
01:58:01.000 Of course.
01:58:01.000 Either way, I lose.
01:58:02.000 So let's just grow that coffee.
01:58:05.000 Yep.
01:58:05.000 All right.
01:58:07.000 Let's see.
01:58:07.000 Chris says, if you change your email associated with your Rumble account to the one that you use for TimCast, it will work.
01:58:12.000 Oh, really cool.
01:58:13.000 Really cool.
01:58:13.000 Say that again?
01:58:14.000 So if you already have a Rumble account, can I say change your email to the same one you use for TimCast?
01:58:18.000 Oh, that's probably what happens.
01:58:19.000 You got to go in, update the settings to the same email address, click update.
01:58:23.000 And then it'll refresh in their system.
01:58:24.000 Maybe that's the issue.
01:58:26.000 Yeah.
01:58:26.000 There you go.
01:58:28.000 Based African says, Tim, what you're describing about the crazy people not connected with their community is the same as the scaling problem you've described before, except with sentient beings who have technology to talk to each other.
01:58:39.000 Those that aren't familiar with the scaling problem, it is quite simple.
01:58:42.000 Let's say Apple releases 100 iPhones with a 1% failure rate and gives them out to 100 celebrities.
01:58:50.000 One celebrity posts on X, my phone broke.
01:58:53.000 Nobody cares.
01:58:54.000 They say, sucks for you, I guess.
01:58:55.000 No one else is having a problem.
01:58:57.000 Let's say they issue 100 million iPhones to everybody with a 1% failure rate, the exact same margin of error.
01:59:06.000 Now you have 1 million people on social media all posting, my phone doesn't work, and it's a trend.
01:59:12.000 Every news article is writing about it, and people are going, what's going on?
01:59:15.000 Why are so many phones breaking?
01:59:17.000 Despite the fact it is the same margin of error.
01:59:19.000 As the system grows larger, the tolerance for failure grows smaller.
01:59:23.000 And that's the scaling problem.
01:59:25.000 Yep.
01:59:25.000 Indeed.
01:59:26.000 Well, I guess we'll grab a couple more Super Chats while we round things out.
01:59:35.000 What do we have here?
01:59:37.000 Tan Lok Alphadog says, Where did you get ski pants for $84, let alone $44?
01:59:42.000 I paid $530 for mine, and that was cheap.
01:59:46.000 I came back at the perfect time.
01:59:48.000 So there's this really crazy company.
01:59:50.000 It's called Amazon.
01:59:51.000 And they deliver in sometimes 24 hours.
01:59:54.000 But I got it on Amazon.
01:59:55.000 But also, seeing in Utah, it wasn't like I wasn't in Alaska on a trip.
02:00:00.000 You know, I wore the pants that keep you warm under, like the long underwear and stuff.
02:00:05.000 I can send you the link, but you should have bought it when it was $44.
02:00:07.000 We, uh, Boonie's, so we're bringing a couple of my buddies to work with Boonie, for Boonie's HQ production, and one of the videos we're going to make is that I ordered 1,000 Pop-Tarts.
02:00:18.000 Oh, dude, I can't.
02:00:19.000 We're gonna butter them.
02:00:21.000 Oh, God.
02:00:22.000 We're gonna drench them in butter.
02:00:23.000 It's got red, red six in it.
02:00:24.000 Oh, you know it.
02:00:25.000 You know it.
02:00:26.000 Oh, man.
02:00:27.000 And we're gonna eat them.
02:00:28.000 Oh, gross.
02:00:28.000 All right, everybody, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, share the show with everyone you know.
02:00:32.000 The members-only Uncensored Call-In Show will begin in just a few moments over at rumble.com slash TimCast IRL for premium members only.
02:00:40.000 You can follow me personally on X and Instagram at TimCast.
02:00:44.000 Debra, do you want to shout anything out?
02:00:45.000 The Debra Lay on all social media, and if you join members-only, you can find out what's in this cup.
02:00:50.000 Oh, yeah, people will be interested in that one.
02:00:52.000 I'm at Ian Cross, and we should use the Pop-Tarts for, like, skeet shooting.
02:00:57.000 And that's all they should be used for.
02:00:59.000 They'll explode.
02:00:59.000 What do you mean?
02:01:00.000 Exactly, yeah.
02:01:00.000 Blow it up.
02:01:01.000 No, I mean, as soon as you try and launch it in the air, they'll just...
02:01:03.000 Yeah, and they would dirty the soil with their toxic food petrochemicals.
02:01:07.000 And you're going to eat a Pop-Tart.
02:01:08.000 No, never.
02:01:09.000 There's healthier things out there.
02:01:10.000 You can tell the people in Peru who now don't have their transgender puppet shows.
02:01:13.000 Pop-Tarts are delicious.
02:01:14.000 Yeah.
02:01:14.000 Under the machine, I suppose.
02:01:16.000 They're not as bad as you think.
02:01:17.000 Look at the ingredients.
02:01:18.000 I'm not saying they're...
02:01:19.000 Enriched flour, yellow, 40...
02:01:21.000 No, no, no, we'll go look.
02:01:22.000 No, no, no, no.
02:01:23.000 Some of them are...
02:01:23.000 Some of them, but there's...
02:01:24.000 Hypertension and...
02:01:25.000 I want rich flour over poor flour.
02:01:27.000 I do think people often underestimate traditional products.
02:01:32.000 Not that they're the best, healthiest thing for you, like eating an actual whole grain thing, but you'll be surprised sometimes.
02:01:38.000 I'm not here to defend Pop-Tarts.
02:01:40.000 There's organic Pop-Tarts.
02:01:41.000 Let's take it away.
