On this week's episode of The Green Room Uncensored, the crew talks about the latest in the Trump administration, including Joe Biden's security clearance being revoked, the removal of USAID's name from the building, Elon Musk rehiring his old guy, and the return of Ian s Graphene Dream.
00:00:38.000He already banned Bolton and I think Brennan, too, from federal buildings and revoked their clearance, revoking also the total 51 former spies who lied about the Hunter Biden laptop.
00:00:48.000The big news, however, and this one's tough for us because we could go with there's a judge trying to block the firing of USAID employees.
00:00:57.000USAID just had its name stripped from the building.
00:01:24.000White people aren't being targeted in this country.
00:01:26.000And now Donald Trump has come out outright as the president and said it's happening and something's got to be done about it.
00:01:32.000This is a massive, massive story that's been bubbling up for decades.
00:01:38.000Lauren Southern had a documentary, Farmlands, what is this, eight years ago, seven years ago, and this conversation's been happening for some time, and now movement is happening.
00:03:09.000We launched, so Appalachian Nights was the blend I made, and I didn't call it like Tim's, but I was like, Appalachian Nights, it's cool, you know, it's dark, it's fun.
00:03:18.000And we didn't intend on that one being the top seller.
00:03:21.000We thought Rise with Roberto Jr. That's why I put the rooster on it.
00:03:24.000But then once people started buying Appalachian Nights, it shifted rapidly and became our best seller.
00:05:55.000Here's the big story from the Associated Press.
00:05:58.000Trump orders freeze of aid to South Africa, citing countries' land expropriation law.
00:06:03.000But let's jump into the actual language of the man.
00:06:07.000We have this executive order that was issued today, and it says, By the authority vested in me as president by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows.
00:06:17.000In shocking disregard of its citizens' rights, the Republic of South Africa recently enacted Expropriation Act 13 of 2024 to enable the government of South Africa to seize ethnic minority Afrikaner's agricultural property without compensation.
00:06:31.000This act follows countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity in employment, education and business, and hateful rhetoric and government actions fueling disproportionate violence against racially disfavored landowners.
00:06:45.000In addition, South Africa has taken aggressive positions towards the United States and its allies, including accusing Israel, not Hamas, of genocide in the International Court of Justice and reinvigorating its relations with Iran to develop commercial military nuclear arrangements.
00:06:58.000The U.S. cannot support the government of South Africa's commission of rights violations in its country or its undermining U.S. foreign policy, which poses national security threats to our nation, our allies, our African partners and our interests.
00:07:11.000It is the policy of the United States that as long as South Africa continues these unjust and immoral practices that harm our nation, the U.S. shall not provide aid or assistance to South Africa and the United States shall promote the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees escaping government sponsored race based discrimination, including racially discriminatory property confiscation. the U.S. shall not provide aid or assistance to South This is a statement from the president.
00:07:34.000The highest position in this country that, let's just be real, he is saying white people in South Africa are being targeted by racist policies to have their lands on.
00:10:12.000And she explained that her parents didn't want her to get raped.
00:10:15.000They were scared that she would be raped.
00:10:16.000And so they found an au pair programs so that she could go overseas and this was the easiest way to get a visa and get her out of the country.
00:10:25.000And so then I started just reading about what was going on and I was shocked to find that...
00:10:30.000After the end of Apartheid, it rapidly became the rape capital, the baby rape capital of the world.
00:10:36.000Homicides jumped tenfold, all these crazy things.
00:10:39.000I then ended up watching a movie called Stander.
00:10:42.000And Serge knows all about this guy, Andre Stander.
00:10:46.000I guess he was like Dillinger of South Africa or something.
00:11:01.000He robbed the bank and then they, as they were fleeing, they heard on the radio, fortunately, the Stander gang did not find the safe hidden behind one of the paintings, so they slammed the brakes on, turned around, went back to the bank, knocked on the door, and the manager said, sorry, we're closed, we were robbed.
00:11:15.000They pointed a gun at him and said, remember us?
00:11:17.000And went back in and went to the safe.
00:11:19.000I feel like I heard that story just recently.
00:11:21.000Maybe you said that off air or something?
00:11:37.000Serge, you're going to have to correct me on this one.
00:11:38.000But my understanding was that it was not a densely populated area when Cape Town was established and the East India Trading Company was coming down.
00:11:45.000They needed to stop for supplies, and there were not very many people there.
00:11:58.000Dramadaris landed in the Cape, and then after that they established a trading colony, like you said earlier before the show.
00:12:04.000Established a trading colony, people liked the trading colony, then eventually the Bantu migration occurred, which was after we had made land in South Africa, people from, that are like what you consider Africans, came down from the north of Africa, out of the jungles, because it's, remember it's in the southern hemisphere, so the jungle, and the equator is north from you, so everything gets hotter as you go north, as opposed to hotter as you go south in the United States.
00:12:27.000They all came down and then essentially made their own nations in South Africa because they said, hey, there's open land.
00:12:57.000Trade colonies were set up, which brought food, resources, technology.
00:13:01.000And then the natives that had been there started settling in and around these colonies because the excess of resource benefited them, which over 100, 200 years or 150 years results in these massive populations surrounding the major cities, cities, which of course they set rules being like, "You guys can't come in here." And then ultimately you get apartheid, segregation, and then you get the whole world being like, "It's racist that 90% of the population can't access your cities."
00:13:32.000I think the big problem that South Africa had is I know there's a lot of – one of the big reasons why the media lied about what was going on was because they were like, but people will be racist if they hear that this is happening.
00:13:42.000And I'm like, I don't think race is the principal component.
00:13:46.000I think it's no societies that were not culturally reformed.
00:13:54.000And then so you have people who don't have the same culture, the same education level.
00:13:58.000If you take the left at their word and they say poverty causes crime, it's like, what do you think is going to happen when you open the door to an entire 90% of an impoverished population and put them into a developed nation?
00:14:11.000Also remember, like you pointed out, why people on the left wouldn't be shouting to the high heavens about something like this.
00:14:17.000There's a strong influence of cultural relativism, which is the reason why the feminists here will not complain about conditions going on in the Middle East.
00:14:25.000They will only complain about it here despite the fact that there's no intellectual consistency there.
00:14:29.000So they wouldn't actually see the problem there because they are not thinking about it that deeply.
00:14:33.000Something that's also to note as well is this happened, it just speaks to what Tim is saying, it happened in Durban as well on the eastern side of South Africa because people were coming down from the eastern or the Indian Ocean in the Indian Ocean trade that occurred in that area for like 900 years.
00:14:46.000They were coming down the coast, settling Madagascar and eventually settling the Durban area of South Africa.
00:14:51.000So there have been Indians and Malay in the country for a long, long time.
00:14:55.000But they also came down because it was very sparsely populated and they said, hey, we can set up a trade spot here.
00:14:59.000People have to come around here because the Suez Canal didn't exist at the time.
00:15:03.000People had to come around the Cape of Good Hope to go to the Indian Ocean and access a lot of trade.
00:15:07.000So, of course, the Dutch settled there and had trade routes there because that's what the Dutch have been doing for forever.
00:15:11.000But yeah, it's like you say, it's a population of people that don't have the same cultural high-trust society that we would have or that these Indian traders would have had that is trying to integrate that has never really integrated.
00:15:24.000same you're seeing this happen though even in american cities where people from other countries come and they kind of you know add to the population and they change the culture of the city you can go to your grocery store i mean you know you go to a costco and it's completely different and then the costco will update it's the type of food it carries right but these cities cultures are drastically changing because the different type of people coming in and the left will prop it up it's like oh well we get different amazing new food and it's like yeah well okay but also the culture is changing and sometimes in a very negative and this is what i hear from a lot of these liberals
00:15:52.000when they say things like well isn't it great that we get uh mexican food and we get you know soul food and we get these things and i'm like yeah i don't care about the food i care about in dearborn michigan where they have this massive rise in female genital mutilation and no law enforcement against it because the community there it's a natural part of their their their culture or in sweden where they had a rise in afghan refugee children raping little boys because that is also a practice that occurs in afghanistan and they're not going to be able to do that because they're
00:16:21.000I believe the story goes that U.S. I met a guy who was a cop in Sweden who quit.
00:16:45.000And he explained that this was happening because they resettled a bunch of refugees from Afghanistan.
00:16:52.000And these young boys were going to pools in Sweden and raping little boys because it was a cultural practice they had.
00:16:57.000And then they were being told not to report it.
00:17:00.000It's always about, like, the left will always ignore this stuff happening, right?
00:17:31.000I think that it would be very good for the United States to actually make English the national language and stop producing any official federal paperwork in any other language.
00:17:46.000You can get multiple different forms that are required in Chinese.
00:17:50.000You can get them in any number of different languages.
00:17:53.000And I think that the first step in getting people to assimilate to American culture, which should be a goal for the United States, and is the correct behavior if you're going to go to a new country.
00:18:06.000The first goal should be get everyone to speak the same language, because if you can't even think in the same language, then you're going to have a more difficult time assimilating to the culture.
00:18:39.000Have you ever encountered someone and you said, like, what is that?
00:18:42.000And they go, ah, there's no word in English for it.
00:18:44.000I'm like, whoa, what do you mean there's no...
00:18:45.000Then explain it in English as to what you think it is.
00:18:48.000And they go, man, I guess you would say it's...
00:18:51.000What they're literally saying is, there is a concept...
00:18:55.000There is something in their mind they can see that they cannot articulate in my language.
00:18:59.000There was actually a trans actor in Hollywood that's going through this whole thing right now because a bunch of...
00:19:07.000Inflammatory tweets came out and they're actually all of them.
00:19:10.000So she's losing award season because all of this stuff against various groups came out and they're actually a big part of what they're saying is it's actually worse.
00:19:18.000All the translated ones for this guy are actually worse if you read it in the native language.
00:19:23.000And this is actually one of the first things that Hollywood did to try to shame Americans was the idea that you go to, they would turn you into a straw man argument where you go to a convenience store and they ask you, it's like, I'm sorry.
00:19:36.000Instead of saying, I'm sorry, I don't speak Spanish, to say, speak English, dude.
00:19:40.000When we understand that's not really how you think about it, you're like, look, I'm sorry we're having a miscommunication here.
00:19:46.000I don't speak your language, but that's not interesting because Hollywood is self-hating and they want to portray anyone who isn't multilingual or multicultural as a bad person.
00:21:18.000Now that we're seeing the rise of all these different languages, Phil makes a really great point because many people have pointed out.
00:21:22.000When you don't have a shared language, your culture shatters.
00:21:26.000And then you end up with vastly different ideas as to what should or should not be and no way to convey them.
00:21:31.000And then going back to the whole point about food versus law, you end up with places where they have female genital mutilation in Michigan.
00:22:03.000Yeah, and you have people in the U.S. that have immigrated here, and they've been here for 30, 40 years, and they still don't speak English.
00:22:09.000I want to just read one super chat before I go to the next story, because Sam's son said, Tim is Tim the kind of dude who speaks broken Spanish to Mexican restaurant workers 100%.
00:25:24.000And then there's a – I was reading about one African culture that has a word for the feeling you get when you look at a woman or when you look at a person that you deeply love but you know that they're looking at someone else who they love and care about and that you'll never have them.
00:25:39.000And it's like for us to convey that idea, I had to say all that.
00:25:43.000And that's why it's really funny sometimes when you're watching you're watching a show with subtitles and the guy will go like blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:26:23.000There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information.
00:26:26.000Therefore, we are immediately revoking Joe Biden's security clearances and stopping his daily intelligence briefings.
00:26:31.000He set this precedent in 2021 when he instructed the intelligence community to stop the 45th president of the United States, me, from accessing details on national security, a courtesy provided to former presidents.
00:26:42.000The report revealed that Biden suffers from poor memory and even in his prime could not be trusted with sensitive information.
00:26:49.000I will always protect our national security.
00:26:57.000One of the best examples where you know the people on the left will be really mad that he did this, not understanding that they did this to him first because they'll expect the Republicans to just lie over and play dead.
00:27:07.000Yeah, Independent writes that he did it as revenge against his predecessor, and I'm just kind of like, yeah, I don't care.
00:27:25.000They've just been lying the whole time.
00:27:26.000And it's like, you know what's really crazy?
00:27:29.000At a certain point, I genuinely do not understand how people watch.
00:27:34.000Brian Tyler Cohen or David Pakman or even to a certain degree like Cenk Uygur.
00:27:39.000I understand the Young Turks have been like, we are populist and we understand.
00:27:42.000But I'm like, how does any sane person literally say, I want my tax dollars going to like pottery classes in Morocco?
00:27:54.000Like, this is the craziest thing about it.
00:27:57.000How are there people who are actually watching these shows where they're like, how dare Trump shut down the sending of our tax dollars to Morocco for pottery classes?
00:28:05.000And it's like, do you really want that?
00:28:08.000Do you think a lot of them are even realizing that or they just buy these narratives that Elon Musk is shutting this stuff down to enrich himself or commit identity fraud, which are these weird arguments that they're making?
00:28:19.000Yeah, they're claiming that you stole the treasury data.
00:28:22.000I think you're thinking about it a lot deeper than the average person who complains about stuff like this.
00:28:27.000I think most of them never make it past the other.
00:28:29.000But if your argument is that the people who watch David Pakman are dumb as a boxer, I'll agree with you.
00:29:00.000The point is we see stuff like that and we get annoyed because we know that these omnibus bills are packed with pork and we understand that this kind of crap comes and goes.
00:29:07.000But the average person, they just trust – a lot of people, they just trust the government when it's Democrats.
00:29:13.000So what you're saying is according to this chart, your average David – I've met people that literally cannot, like, draw a...
00:31:07.000I think it's a lot of it is like nowadays you become a tourist in politics and you read a couple of headlines that really upset you.
00:31:13.000But we understand that these social media companies did a lot of work to figure out what makes people post on platforms and stuff that makes you angry gets you to post.
00:31:20.000So even if you don't read about politics all day, you read something that says that.
00:31:24.000Elon Musk is stealing social security numbers, whatever, this bullshit that they're, sorry, the stuff that they're reading, and that gets them to post on it, but they're not actually doing the legwork to look into this stuff.
00:31:35.000And if they did, I don't know if they'd believe it, because they've been lied to their whole lives.
00:31:38.000Now we've got these fake, we've got these, on NPC, we've got these fake profiles now, like Facebook's making AI. Yeah, they admitted that, didn't they?
00:31:45.000Yeah, there was a company I read recently that they do AI support, customer support, and they were making AI LinkedIn profiles for their quote-unquote employees, which is just AI. And they were applying for jobs and open to work, right?
00:32:01.000And these aren't real people, and LinkedIn banned them.
00:32:41.000The bad guy, this woman, you know, Evan Rachel Wood, is killing humans and then using the data on them that they've stored from collecting their profile and then putting their copy into a robot body.
00:32:54.000So we're very much getting to that point when they're creating AI profiles for people without them knowing.
00:33:01.000Let me tell you guys, you want something scary?
00:33:03.000I think it's now becoming clear why Elon Musk bought X. Do you know why he did?
00:33:17.000You can take all of the articles from Huffington Post and Breitbart and the New York Times and whatever, or you can have what they call the fire hose.
00:33:24.000That is the massive stream of human consciousness, and Grok is absorbing it all.
00:33:29.000I think that, I mean, between the, what, 15 years that Tesla has been...
00:33:35.000Taking data from Tesla vehicles that were out in the road, or on the road, and the enormous amount of data that's in X, he might have the largest database, might have...
00:33:47.000Actual ownership of the largest database for AI to exploit in the world.
00:33:53.000And Tesla's incentivizing people now to use their full self-driving with insurance discounts.
00:33:58.000If you have a Tesla, it's in trial period, so not everybody gets this.
00:34:03.000But if you use a certain percentage of your driving as done with full self-driving, you will get a percentage discount.
00:34:42.000I put these things on, and then I just sit back and go...
00:34:45.000And then, I'm kidding by the way, don't do that.
00:34:47.000But the way Tesla works is they have a camera that watches everything you do and if your eyes go off the road, even to look at your Spotify or whatever, the screen starts flashing and then it's like, pay attention to the road and then it'll turn red and then shut off.
00:36:31.000And there was also an instance I had a few months ago where a car stopped to make a right turn and the Tesla did not.
00:36:36.000And then right when I was probably like two inches, I just rammed the wheel to the left and onto the wrong side of the road to stop it from hitting a car.
00:36:47.000You were talking about the Facebook stuff, and I think they ended up getting, like, they pulled back on that program with the AI influencers and stuff, because it's basically a way to bump their numbers so they can sell advertising on Meta.
00:36:58.000Did you see the video of the guy who broke the female AI influencer on there?
00:37:10.000That happens with every AI. As soon as word gets out that there's an AI, the trolls are like, alright, let's go start uploading Hitler stuff.
00:37:20.000The boomers can't handle the AI images, though.
00:37:24.000It breaks their mind and they love it, though.
00:37:26.000They'll post like, What politician was it when there was flooding or something, and she posted a picture of a girl holding a teddy bear, and it was an AI-generated photo, and people were like, yeah, this is AI, and she refused to recognize it for a bit.
00:38:46.000I'd like you just to remember this question to ask if ever you are confused and wondering if you're dealing with an AI. You say, you're in a desert walking along in the sand when you suddenly spot a tortoise lying on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun.
00:39:00.000It's struggling, trying to turn itself over, but it can't.
00:41:01.000And so he hits a tray of drinks, causing the drinks to shatter, and then the normal reaction everybody has is shock, but the one guy desperately trying to hold it together doesn't react because he doesn't know how he's supposed to fake a reaction to this.
00:41:47.000They were intentionally creating fake profiles to interact with you.
00:41:49.000The AI profiles were being taught language models so that they would interact with you because it helps bolster ad revenue because they can start selling ads on all of their stuff, yeah.
00:41:59.000And even that, they're not disclosing that to these companies, right?
00:42:10.000People like the new generation, Gen Z and Gen Alpha, they actually follow them knowing that they're fake because they live their whole lives behind a screen.
00:43:28.000The AI profiles promote the products because they're AI designed to talk about what was on the show.
00:43:33.000And this person with zero influence is the biggest show in the world and makes tons of money.
00:43:38.000You're seeing that on like X and Instagram.
00:43:41.000And this has been happening forever where people would buy followers, right?
00:43:44.000You can go on a website and you can buy Instagram followers.
00:43:47.000And it was always a giveaway because somebody would have like 10,000 followers on their Instagram page and they'd have like two likes on a post, right?
00:43:53.000You see that now currently on X. There's a few people out there who run podcasts, and when people ask me, it's like, have you ever gone to this person's show?
00:44:02.000I just respond with, no, but I'm really impressed when someone has the ability to get half a million views on a podcast with seven comments.
00:44:48.000But there are some shows, you'll see a clip pop up, and I'm like, how did they book this actor or whatever?
00:44:54.000And then I can see that they've got huge numbers on their podcasts, but no comments, no likes, no interactions.
00:45:01.000And when they, like, these talent agencies, when they have celebrities and they have high-profile people, they don't know or care.
00:45:09.000They get a press kit and a request saying, we have a podcast with, insert however many million followers, our average video gets X many views, would you like to come on the show?
00:45:48.000I mean, it's even worse now in the age of, like, the Zoom interview, where they'll go on channels that have not even, like, the fake views, right?
00:45:56.000They'll just do that because there are what are called approved media outlets for a lot of these people to cover, so it's getting worse.
00:46:03.000You see this a lot, though, with, like, organizations, and it'll be like, an organization has a really fancy name, and the guy will introduce himself, he's like, I'm the president, CEO, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and it's like, you've got one employee, dude.
00:46:14.000Like, what are you doing with this title, you know?
00:46:17.000Yeah, you know, that was always funny to me, because I remember when I first started working with my buddies to make businesses, and my friend was like, I'll be the chief operating officer, and I was like, really?
00:46:35.000And then I was like, and then I remember when I got hired at Fusion, I was like, they were like, you know, we'll have you as a senior correspondent.
00:46:43.000I was like, nah, I want to be a director.
00:46:59.000But there's a lot of these companies work because when you say that, like, I was a director of Insert Project for a couple years, they go, oh, wow, oh, geez.
00:47:05.000And so everybody's just lying about their titles.
00:47:08.000And so then me and my buddies, once we made jokes that our titles were like absolutely insane, like senior vice president of directorial management and overseeing the chief executive suite and like foreign relations.
00:47:19.000It's for the LinkedIn of it all so they can get their next job.
00:47:21.000Yeah, these companies don't check that.
00:47:31.000Because they use AI to search through all the resumes to pick who it was, he exploited their AI. And what he did was he made a resume and then took all of the buzzwords that were required by the algorithm and put them in white text, super tiny in the bottom corner.
00:47:49.000So when the resume was scanned by the company's AI, it saw all of the words it was programmed to look for and brought his resume to the top.
00:47:57.000And said he was the best candidate, and the company was like, the program says he's the guy, and that he just gamed the system.
00:48:04.000Yeah, people are doing that with their websites.
00:48:05.000If you don't want your website harvested from AI or Google search results, they'll hide an F-bomb in it so it doesn't get picked up.
00:48:12.000Let's jump to this next story, ladies and gentlemen.
00:49:01.000When Cuomo was shutting down churches and they sued and the judge said, you can't do that, he went, okay, crumbled up the executive order, signed another one and said, sue that.
00:49:08.000And it's not literally what he did, but that's what he was doing.
00:49:12.000So even though the judges were like, this is unconstitutional, he says, I can sign an executive order faster than you can sue me.
00:49:18.000So if that's the game they want to play and Trump is doing it to shut down the deep state slush fund.
00:49:42.000And I'm like, so Democrats do evil thing.
00:49:45.000And the response is, but if we stop evil thing, maybe in the future evil thing will happen to us.
00:49:49.000And I'm like, but they're literally doing it right now.
00:49:52.000If we don't stop them from using USAID, or it's like if we use the force of government to shut down USAID, when they get in power, they'll do something.
00:50:01.000And I'm like, they are using this machine of evil to destroy our lives.
00:50:07.000And you're worried about the evil that may come after the evil destroys us.
00:50:12.000Republicans have suffered from this historically, not using the power they get when they win their election.
00:50:18.000They're terrified to use their power whenever they're in office because there's a media apparatus that will frame every single thing they do in the worst possible light, which is how they've changed, at least in the past, before the internet, how they framed public perception of them as this inherently evil party because every time they say, They do exactly to them what you're accused of doing, which is what the left has done for a long time.
00:50:40.000So Republicans are afraid to do it back because they feel like they're going to get labeled a certain way, which then they do by press that's in cahoots with Democrat donors and organizations.
00:50:51.000And they never use their power and they always snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
00:50:56.000Snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
00:51:57.000The way that people are behaving towards the government, I think it really speaks to the different way that people kind of conceive of the government.
00:52:11.000Trump's going after everything because he doesn't think anything of the government's sacred.
00:52:40.000Out of all the stuff that I've heard that Doge has focused on, there is absolutely nothing that it does that is necessary for the United States.
00:53:08.000And there is nothing that it needs, like nothing that it does that sounds, to me, at all necessary.
00:53:16.000So the idea that this is some kind of sacred cow is held on the left.
00:53:24.000There are people that are knee-jerk reactions, that have a knee-jerk reaction to it, and then there are people that are actually getting rich off of it.
00:53:30.000If you drive to Washington, D.C. from here, you'll go through a part of Virginia where Langley is.
00:53:40.000There's one of the routes that will take you literally right by the entrance to the CIA headquarters.
00:54:45.000Just go driving to D.C. You go through the wine country here, and there's all these vineyards that are privately owned by people that likely made their money in Washington, D.C. That was actually something I thought was interesting to bring up.
00:55:00.000I was going to say, what was interesting was that you go through a lot of them.
00:56:21.000These areas are—look, man, we went to Reston to get food, and in City Center, they were doing a Disney musical singing thing where, like, there were a bunch of people all sitting in this beautiful park.
00:56:57.000My ex-wife used to work in Tyson's when she worked for Palantir.
00:57:04.000The offices are gorgeous, and they have catering all the time, and they had this big Lego Death Star, and it was this whole nerds with endless money.
00:57:17.000And it's in this beautiful office building, and all the malls around are gorgeous, and that's just in the business area.
00:57:25.000The houses out there, it's ridiculous how gorgeous these things are.
00:57:29.000And again, this is all money extracted from the American people.
00:57:38.000And a lot of the people who work for the weapons companies are all out there as well.
00:57:42.000Yeah, you know, I honestly, this is going to sound a little, this is actually going to sound neoconny, but I have less hate for the people that contract with DOD than I do with people that are working with USAID.
00:57:58.000At least the people that are working with DOD and contracting with DOD, at the very least there is a constitutional mandate for the federal government to defend the country.
00:58:10.000Also think of what you were saying about how- There's no federal mandate for trans- The anger that you said that people are feeling for tearing down USAID because the people on the left do have this...
00:58:22.000They treat the government as a savior to them.
00:58:26.000And that's why they were in a lot of ways so offended by what happened on January 6th because they felt that their cathedral was actually being attacked because they see the government as above all else.
00:58:37.000And if you start looking at it that way, you start to understand why their mania for government is so strong.
00:59:45.000I remember driving through, I think it was McLean, and just...
00:59:48.000It's crazy because I'm driving past all these houses as we're driving back from D.C., and I'm just thinking to myself, what does this person do to afford such a house?
01:01:05.000So the story of the castle, our first studio, was that the family that lived, it used to be a very small, like, two-bedroom house, and there was a fire.
01:01:18.000They got insurance money, and then with the insurance money...
01:01:21.000They built a massive house, a 10,000 square foot house, and then instantly regretted building just a massive house and then sold it and moved.
01:01:30.000And, you know, so I asked one of the family members, what was wrong with you guys, a family of five and a 10,000 square foot house?
01:01:39.000I mean, it sounds like a lot of space.
01:01:40.000And they said the wife would be upstairs and yell to the kids and they couldn't hear her.
01:01:46.000So she'd walk around this 10,000 square foot property trying to find out where the kids were, and she couldn't find out where they were, and she got really frustrated and annoyed.
01:01:53.000Not to mention, if you don't go into one part of the house and a pipe bursts, and you don't notice it because you haven't gone in there in three days, when you're in a small house, you notice these things.
01:02:02.000You go to the basement, do your laundry, pipe bursts, you're like, uh-oh.
01:02:37.000You need to hire a house of that size.
01:02:39.000It's probably going to need two or three people.
01:02:41.000Because you need it to be checked every day.
01:02:45.000Someone's going to have to go with a checklist into every room every day to make sure that the window didn't break, the window sealed, bugs didn't get in, and it's going to cost you.
01:07:05.000There's a lot of major, like Target is located in the Twin Cities, or 3M, and the city I grew up in was Woodbury, so they put 3M in East St. Paul, but nobody who came there to work wanted to work.
01:07:18.000So just to clarify, Barstool's headquarters is New York, but they have a significant presence in Chicago, like particularly significant, which I wish Chicago was not corrupt.
01:08:48.000However, if the black people from that neighborhood, and I'm not talking about regular people, I'm saying if like criminal elements of either side, if a criminal gangbanger on the Latino side went to the black neighborhood, the cops stop it immediately.
01:09:02.000If the black criminal elements would go from the racially segregated area to the north into the other areas, the cops were like, we can't do anything about it because we'll be called racist.
01:09:10.000So you had this really weird, racist, racially segregated dynamic in the city.
01:09:23.000I was watching, my father still lives in Chicago, and he sent me this video from a city council meeting.
01:09:29.000And this black woman gets up, and she's like, Just lighting into the mirror because they're upset that all their funding and everything is going to illegals.
01:10:11.000If you take a look at the district map by how they voted and put it next to a racial demographic map, people in Chicago, probably 80%, voted for their candidate based on their race.
01:12:13.000I think this is going to lead to racial tensions, racism, racial animosity, all of that stuff.
01:12:19.000But when you have white liberals with an out-group preference, what's going to happen then is the Asian neighborhoods, the Hispanic neighborhoods, the black neighborhoods are going to have in-group preference, meaning when it comes time to vote, they are going to vote against other racial groups.
01:12:37.000I'm saying straight up, Latino groups vote.
01:12:39.000For only their neighborhood and their interests and against black, Asian, white or otherwise.
01:12:43.000Every racial group does this and then whites vote against themselves.
01:12:47.000So who's going to end up on the bottom end of all of these policies?
01:12:53.000In Texas, we have a city in North Dallas, and there was a race, and there was an Asian woman who was a Democrat and an Asian woman who was a Republican.
01:13:20.000You know, people say demographics are destiny.
01:13:23.000Ro Khanna, when he was on the show a couple weeks ago, said that the leftist dream of this multicultural, globalist society failed, and we were wrong.
01:13:40.000That's why people were talking about the dangers of critical theory for so long, right?
01:13:44.000Is that it uniquely attacked white in-group preference because so many white Americans were taught to feel shame about their own background.
01:13:53.000What an insane reality to live in where, like, look.
01:13:59.000I don't like any racial supremacists, okay?
01:14:02.000Like, bro, if you want to come to me and tell me that you think you're better because of your race, I'm going to show you everyone I can of a different race who's more successful than you are.
01:14:12.000You've got people who emigrate from Nigeria, and as they say, like, on average, they make more money and are more successful than your average American of any other race.
01:14:22.000The people from Nigeria who have the merit and the ability and make the money and then can afford to leave are the best, the cream of the crop.
01:14:31.000They come to this country and they succeed.
01:14:32.000Clearly, there's no issue with them being black.
01:14:34.000They found more success than any other race.
01:14:36.000Which is why legal immigration was actually a unifying factor for a long period of time because when they came to America, they were desirous to move here because they believed in what we stood for and we knew that we were getting the ones that were going to work the hardest to get ahead.
01:14:51.000That's why legal immigration is a good thing That's why illegal immigration is a bad thing.
01:14:56.000And I partly blame Ronald Reagan for his amnesty.
01:15:24.000But my presumption on all this is Carter was so miserably bad that when Reagan reversed the bad by, I guess, just relative principle, he appeared really good.
01:15:38.000And so they were like, Reagan was the best.
01:16:47.000That when it comes to someone like Reagan, things were so bad that when it got kind of a little bit better, they were like, he's the greatest president ever.
01:16:55.000Also, there was a lot more American unification at that time.
01:16:58.000The idea of the American dream was still pretty...
01:17:02.000Intact, and it's just not that anymore, and they long for those times.
01:17:05.000People struggle to describe what American culture is now.
01:17:08.000Because, you know, to immigration, people that immigrate here don't immigrate here because we have freedom of speech.
01:18:20.000When All That Remains would go to Japan and tour, you would set up your crew or the band would set up your stuff, and then the local crew would come out with tape measures, and they would measure everything.
01:18:35.000And if you had, like, two waters and a beer, the next day, when everything was set up again, they would use the tape measures to make sure everything was the same distance, and then the next day you would have two waters and a beer.
01:18:48.000Like, they are meticulous, because in Japan, it seems like they don't have a phrase for close enough.
01:19:47.000When I went, I went with Luke, and we went to Tokyo, and then made our way up to Fukushima.
01:19:52.000And we stopped at some hole-in-the-wall karaoke bar that you are sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with a bunch of Japanese people all just singing songs.
01:20:01.000And I sang that song from Aladdin, Whole New World, with this Japanese woman.
01:20:13.000Of all the places, I've been, you know, me and Tim has too, but I've been all over the world, and out of all the places that are not America.
01:20:55.000There are all these woke people saying that white people have no culture and stuff like that.
01:21:00.000And then you look at all the different cultures, all the different countries around the world, and there are distinct cultural elements of what makes those groups.
01:22:10.000If you want to buy an Apple computer but you're from Brazil, it's going to take you all year to save up to be able to buy because you're importing from a foreign country and these things cost a thousand bucks.
01:22:22.000But if you live in the United States, you could work at Starbucks and buy an Apple MacBook.
01:22:27.000Yeah, you'll see like the most poorest, struggling...
01:22:30.000Immigrant on TV and in their hand they're holding the brand new iPhone.
01:22:35.000You mentioned Little League, and I just remember we were skating this ledge over at one of the baseball fields in the suburbs over here, and there's actually the Little League pledge that is on all of their dugouts.
01:22:48.000It says, I trust in God, I love my country, will respect its laws, I will play fair and strive to win, but win or lose, I will always do my best.
01:22:55.000I can't believe they even allow that to still be up there saying, trust in God.
01:23:34.000I don't mind the idea of using digital currencies.
01:23:39.000We've been doing it forever with Visa.
01:23:41.000I think with this administration, with David Sachs being involved in crypto and stuff, and making the administration crypto-friendly, it's possible that...
01:23:52.000Something like Tether could be used for digital transactions.
01:23:56.000It's a cryptocurrency, but it's pegged to the dollar.
01:24:58.000On that point, do you remember, was it Amazon that had those grocery stores in the airports and that you would walk in and you'd scan your palm and, like, they advertised that you would just, like, grab what you want, you walk out, and it was, like, automatic.
01:25:10.000And then people found out it's really just a bunch of people in a call center watching video cameras, like, racking up what you were buying.
01:25:15.000It wasn't actually as high-tech as they advertised it to be.
01:25:18.000And their excuse was, oh, we're training it.
01:25:20.000Yeah, I mean, Indian guys on H1BB's just chilling in the room, just taking away what you picked up in your hands.
01:25:25.000It's crazy, but I went to one of those stores in Hollywood as well, and apparently that's what was going on, so your boy's been on camera.
01:25:36.000I thought it was all Amazon Fresh, in particular Amazon Fresh stores.
01:25:39.000I mean, I imagine if everything had an RFID... Yeah.
01:25:44.0007-Eleven has these things now where you take everything that you're buying and you put it on the counter and there's like a camera over it and it scans everything and it like charges you and you walk out.
01:25:56.000You can just buy whatever you're buying without going through to a checkout.
01:26:00.000But this was like, if you're just walking through, and you can pick all the stuff up and pick it up, you apparently were just being watched on camera, I guess.
01:26:06.000They were saying it was like RFID chips, but it wasn't the case.
01:26:09.000It was just, you know, camera systems.
01:26:12.000I mean, I do think that people, maybe not today, maybe not now, but in the very near future, that kind of, you know, Monitoring is something that people are going to be very used to.
01:26:25.000It's easy to just walk by and swipe your phone on whatever.
01:26:30.000And people have become so accustomed to things happening automatically.
01:26:35.000I mean, if you own a Tesla, I have gotten out of my Jeep and forgot to turn it off more times than I can count since I got a Tesla.
01:26:43.000Because I just got out of the Tesla and the phone comes with me and it locks itself.
01:28:14.000I think Dodge released an electric charger or Challenger, and it has a speaker on the outside of the car, so when you're driving, it makes fake exhaust.
01:28:24.000Well, when you put your Tesla in reverse...
01:28:27.000There's a sound that happens with the Teslas.
01:28:32.000If you don't have any sight and you can't see it and you just get blindsided by a Tesla, it doesn't matter if it's self-driving or not, it can definitely happen.
01:28:39.000I tell you, the difference between the instantaneous acceleration and waiting for an engine to inject the fuel into the engine, spin up and transfer the power to the wheels, I prefer the electric car now.
01:29:19.000You know, I was just thinking something totally random.
01:29:22.000With the moves to USAID and the gutting of this funding, Have y'all considered about which stocks are now going to implode first thing Monday morning?
01:29:32.000Because I'm wondering, I was just reading something on my phone.
01:29:36.000I was looking at, like, earnings reports and stuff like this, and I was like, some of these companies are like research.
01:30:02.000But how many of them have gotten government grants, which Trump is going to rip to shreds and just be like, stop doing whatever it is you're doing.
01:30:40.000But yeah, if you're trading the way that there's a Pelosi track or whatever, if you buy what Pelosi buys when she buys it, You are gonna make money.
01:30:52.000I mean, isn't there a delay on that, right?
01:30:53.000Because the records aren't available for a period of time.
01:30:56.000So you're not gonna be buying it at the same time as she's buying them.
01:31:10.000Yeah, I mean, look, when it comes to things like GPUs and, you know, the semiconductors that Are being made overseas.
01:31:21.000Our society now runs on those things and to have them to not be able to supply at least supply the United States government.
01:31:33.000With the semiconductors that it needs to operate, that, in my opinion, is dereliction of duty by the federal government.
01:31:40.000They should be doing everything they can to make sure that there are companies making the semiconductors that they need for the military and for the government, so that way we don't have to rely on anyone else.
01:31:58.000A big part of the reason why we buy oil from other people is because we have reserves here and we have untapped reserves in the U.S. that we don't want to use up.
01:32:39.000Because he covered all of our emergency reserves when we could have needed them, and who knows what could have happened at that time, and he depleted all of that.
01:32:43.000I remember watching the prices in Hollywood of my local gas station go up to like $7.95 when I was leaving, and then it dropped back down again when he sold all that stuff off, and then sure enough, you know, I forget however many months later, eventually it went back up again, you know?
01:32:55.000And the media won't call this out, right?
01:33:41.000It is straight-up left-wing propaganda.
01:33:44.000It is not about, oh, well, you know, the context that these reporters live in is urban, so they're going to have a city-based kind of opinion, or they're going to be a little pro-government because that's the world that they live in.
01:33:58.000So if they weren't, it's because of the context.
01:34:28.000So I was watching Family Guy recently, and he was singing a song about how he once put butter on a Pop-Tart, and then Allison and I thought, That's probably actually very good.
01:35:57.000I don't actually intend to eat a lot of them.
01:35:58.000I just thought it would be funny because we actually were running out of snacks and so I was like, well, you know, we're going to have to reorder.
01:36:04.000Because we usually, not only do we have a lot of staff that come through here, but guests and then guests bring family and friends.
01:37:16.000If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, share the show with everyone you know, and become a member at TimCast.com and support our work because we want to buy more Pop-Tarts.
01:37:26.000I'm looking at all of you that you wish you could have a barrel full of Pop-Tarts just sitting there right in the room and you could eat them whenever you wanted.
01:37:33.000But as a nearly 40-year-old man, of course, I can't eat like that.
01:38:28.000He said, you know how eggs are really expensive and there's a shortage?
01:38:31.000We should stop giving away Chicken City eggs to employees as a perk for free and get a vending machine where you have to put money in.
01:38:37.000Of course, that would just break the eggs, but I said, what if we do the one where you have the sliding drawer, and you put the money in, press it, and then it unlocks, and you can take the eggs out?
01:39:19.000Tim of 2009 says, Tim, shill for cast brew coffee with Ian's Graphene Dream and the Boonies HQ. Don't forget the Discord delinquents and the after show.
01:40:27.000You guys, have you checked out Roman Nation?
01:40:28.000It is very cool that there is the Roman Nation podcast which started on our Discord server.
01:40:34.000And so if you haven't become a member at TimCast.com, you should to join the Discord server because quite literally culture is being built.
01:40:42.000It is being incubated and people are coming together and becoming friends and they're building projects.
01:40:46.000And now I've got people coming to me asking if I... I had someone ask me the other day if I heard of Roman Nation.
01:41:03.000Seacowboy says, I just got fired at USAID. Now the people will never know how many chucks a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
01:41:09.000Now he said, how many chucks a woodchuck could chuck in Iraq?
01:44:09.000They shut down the servers after a couple weeks or something like that.
01:44:12.000You can't get into arguments with people about these things because if you tell them you want characters that don't look ugly, they're like, you just want a goon to this character!
01:44:20.000And they don't understand that actual objective beauty is something that all humans understand.
01:44:26.000You just don't want to look at something ugly on the screen.
01:44:27.000Yes, you just don't want to look at something ugly.
01:45:57.000It's because in the actual comic books, the men had to look that way and the women looked that way because they're supposed to be the most aspirational form of humanity that you could be.
01:46:06.000And the problem is that feminism negates the idea that the women looking like that is an affront to them because women see it and they say, the women shouldn't look like that.
01:46:47.000This is, like, pretty grainy, but the guy in the middle is Screen Time, and he can, like, look at this, the brother and sister incestuous relationship.
01:46:54.000And the brother there, that's what they imagined a jock would look like.
01:50:14.000I love it when you're like, you know, playing, let's say like Civ VI or whatever, because I haven't played VII. A good lesson kids learn is you are building your nation, you build little cities, and then all of a sudden some dude shows up and he's angry at you and he's like, my nation is better than yours and I'm going to steal all your stuff and there's nothing you can do about it.
01:50:31.000And you're like, bro, I didn't even say anything to you.
01:50:34.000Next thing you know, he's launching catapults, trebuchets are firing on your city.
01:50:38.000And it's an important lesson for kids to learn about geopolitics that sometimes a war will happen and there's nothing you've done, but you better be prepared to defend yourself and the people you care about.
01:50:48.000Not to mention, teaches you about the pyramids and forms of government.
01:51:41.000I will say I do understand the idea of customizing your civilization and being like, I want to have, like, you choose a world leader because they get plus one to this thing and minus one to that thing, but then you also want to have Rome, which gets plus Aqueduct and minus this, I guess.
01:51:59.000But it's really just becoming like a choose-your-own-adventure, customize a character.
01:52:48.000Nowadays, they released Halo Infinity and, like, they were patching it and adding on for over a year before the full list of things that they promised before it was released were actually available.
01:53:03.000Gentlemen, this message goes out to all the Gen Zers out there.
01:53:07.000Because I feel bad that you will never know the glory that was the dawn of video games.
01:53:12.000In Street Fighter 2, the game was complete.
01:53:33.000And so in the first release of Street Fighter 2, one of the most famous and easiest to pull off combos would be, it's probably got a more formal name, but say Ryu.
01:53:48.000Before you land, you down, down-forward-forward punch to chain a Hadouken, followed by a Shoryuken, and all in one motion with no opportunity for your opponent to defend, you will hit them several times in what was called a combo.
01:54:06.000And so when it came out, the developers were like, we got a problem, the game got released, and people are connecting moves, and you can't stop it.
01:54:45.000And there was a point in Stormwind where when you go in and you go to the left of the auction house, you could jump up on like a crate, jump at the wall, and then jump slightly to the left, floating on a glitch midair, and then fall through the floor and go underneath Stormwind, clearly seeing a place you're not supposed to be.
01:55:10.000And me and my friends, when we played this, It was the most fun thing because this is a massive world map and you could go anywhere and try and break into places you weren't supposed to go.
01:55:20.000The same is also true for the original Destiny.
01:56:06.000Or look at GTA 5. It's like, we used to get a GTA and updates and different versions in different cities, and now it's just, that's it, it's over.
01:56:15.000So, man, these kids, they don't know what they've missed.
01:56:19.000They'll never know the joy of seeing the latest generation of gaming console coming out with updated graphics, because now it's just like, what do you mean?
01:56:28.000Well, the graphics, they have made developers lazy.
01:56:31.000These games come out and they're not optimized.
01:56:33.000And so you have to drop, like, you have to have the newest...
01:56:40.000I mean, some of the reasoning for it is because in the past they've had the actual resolution degrade for further away objects as opposed to the objects that are in the front.
01:56:54.000Nowadays they're making the resolution for objects far away the same resolution as objects up front, so that's part of why graphics cards have...
01:57:05.000They've increased in power, but to the casual player, the graphics haven't gotten better.
01:57:12.000It's because the graphics have become more homogenous throughout the whole game, as opposed to just the immediate area.
01:57:26.000Like Halo 2, the graphics were a certain level when they were right next to you and stuff, but then if you looked off in the distance, it was mostly smoke or just shapes and stuff.
01:57:39.000They are actually using the power of the new graphics cards, but that's because they're trying to make the whole thing more homogenous.
02:01:06.000You tell your friends to become a member and watch the show.
02:01:08.000And you can watch together and chat with each other and hang out.
02:01:11.000And you're also going to meet a lot of new people.
02:01:14.000But tell your friends to watch live Monday through Friday at 8 p.m.
02:01:17.000Because if you're watching and they're watching and you're online and you're talking to each other, you can build community and let's roll, everybody.
02:01:24.000Really, the way that shows do grow is talk to anybody in this industry and they're like, I wish there was a magic bullet.
02:01:30.000The answer is just if people like the show, they tell their friends to watch it.
02:01:33.000So if you do, that would be appreciated.
