On this week's episode of the Timestamps, we discuss the latest in the Trump/Fauci case, the latest on the NFL and UFC, and a call-in question from Phil Labonte. Plus, we're joined by Ron Coleman of the band Anti-Communism to talk about his new book, "How's Yours Truly?"
00:00:22.000With an M. We wish it was billion, but it's million.
00:00:25.000And now, to be fair, $100 million is coming from one large donor who's going to be using this money towards probably their own campaign or super PACs, but $70 million from small donors, $30 million from larger donors, a massive influx of new, never-before-donating donors.
00:00:44.000And we have some polls coming out among independent voters showing that after the guilty verdict, Trump is up!
00:00:49.000Now, of course, everybody's got their polls.
00:00:51.000We've got people on the left saying, no, Trump's down, and everyone's going to choose their poll, so take that with a grain of salt.
00:01:18.000And the media is trying to lie to claim that Aaron Rodgers snubbed Donald Trump.
00:01:22.000When he did it, he went up, shook his hand, and said it was priceless.
00:01:25.000So we'll talk about that, plus a bunch of other funny news from the weekend.

00:04:13.000Here we go, the big news from the weekend.
00:04:15.000Ladies and gentlemen, from the Daily Mail, Donald Trump campaign has raised over $200 million in just three days since the guilty felony verdict, son Eric Trump claims.
00:04:26.000Eric Trump says $70 million has flown into campaign coffers from small donors.
00:04:32.000The Trump heir also noted how gangster Al Capone has less felonies than his dad.
00:04:45.000But the $100 million is coming from the... It's Miriam Adelson.
00:04:51.000Israeli-American Miriam Adelson, the wife of the late casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, reportedly pledging $100 million to the Trump campaign in the days since his criminal conviction, according to The Forward.
00:05:02.000Now this is, the way they'll break down is likely going to super PACs.
00:05:06.000We saw another guy, what was his name?
00:06:08.000Since we formed the super PAC, we haven't had a single meeting with them.
00:06:11.000And then they do exactly what the campaign wants.
00:06:13.000And then it's also funny, too, because Biden can come out and he could say, you know, I really wish those guys would run commercials of me championing my new border policy.
00:06:25.000The point calling it ridiculous is about as accurate as you can get.
00:06:28.000The idea that you need to tell Republicans generally what Republicans want.
00:06:35.000It's like once you know how to be a Catholic, You can just go ahead and do the Catholic things and you're doing Catholic stuff.
00:06:44.000Once you know generally what the logic that goes into conservative values is, you know the people that came up with the philosophies and you understand it, you don't have to be dictated specifically what to do.
00:07:01.000The differences will be nuanced and something that most Republicans aren't going to fight you on.
00:09:02.000So here we have, nonetheless, the premise of your question was, alright, Could they have anticipated that there would be such a huge influx of money?
00:09:13.000And yes, there's at least one poll out there that says that some people, some people have, this is frankly inconceivable to me, that there would be someone who likes Donald Trump before the jury returned.
00:09:26.000And when the jury came back they said, what was I thinking?
00:09:40.000Is there a point, well they generally say there's a lot of that with polling, but what is the point at which you as a Democrat dirty trickster, and that's what these all are, these are all dirty tricks, Say, are we the baddies here?
00:10:10.000I think, you know, the issue I take with, like, if you look at a lot of Well, I'll call it older comic books, movies, it was one-dimensional villains, and then we started getting this shift into characters with depth, most notably Mr. Freeze.
00:10:31.000The Batman animated series won an Emmy because the villain's motivation was that his wife was dying of an incurable disease, and so he wasn't trying to take over the world to be evil, he was trying to save his wife, but he didn't care who he hurt.
00:10:43.000The Democrats know what they're doing, and they think they're allowed to do it because there is no truth but power.
00:11:23.000Are you familiar with the Goblin King?
00:11:25.000I'm gonna do all the nerd references possible.
00:11:27.000No, you stumped me with the Goblin King.
00:11:29.000To become Goblin King, you must kill the King of the Goblins.
00:11:33.000And so it's a never-ending cycle of chaos.
00:11:39.000The idea is that there's never any stability because the only thing that's ever happening is one person is plotting to take the space of the other person.
00:11:46.000I see the Democrats as a cacophony of corruption.
00:11:53.000It's effectively a fire in our government.
00:11:57.000It's a political social fire consuming and destroying and spreading.
00:12:00.000Moreover, there isn't a central figure, a hero, who can say, even if that person were Hillary Clinton, Hey, I don't want to be known for this.
00:12:12.000I don't want this to be how I remember.
00:12:27.000What they have demonstrated, and that's why the Fetterman thing really is driving them up the wall, because he was supposed to be another golem.
00:12:54.000In contradistinction to what's happened to the Republican Party, where it has become entirely about one man, one person, and his personality.
00:13:04.000It's an interesting way of looking at it, Tim, but you're right.
00:13:06.000There is no limiting... certainly principles are off the table.
00:13:10.000I don't think that there is a cabal that's got a plan for what's ahead.
00:13:37.000It's a little bit more complicated than just, say, fire, you know, for my analogy, but when I look at why they're going after Trump, it's because they're like, destroy him.
00:13:46.000And then step two is question mark, question mark, question mark, and step three is profit.
00:13:49.000That's how I view how the Democrats operate.
00:14:33.000And that's why they go into alliances with forces and ideologies that are inherently Opposed to what they... Why does a guy like Senator Scumbag from New York, Schumer, why would he agree to empower all these rank anti-Semites?
00:14:57.000I mean, doesn't he even care a little bit?
00:16:17.000Independents favor Trump by 12 points despite guilty verdict, INI and TIPP poll.
00:16:23.000Trump leads Biden 38 to 26 percent among independent voters.
00:16:27.000And I tell you what, I'm imagining or I imagine that come election time, it's going to shift even more in favor of Trump.
00:16:33.000According to a recent poll by Issues and Insight, TIPP, Trump made gains against Biden in the court of public opinion despite being found guilty in the NYC falsified documents case.
00:16:43.000Among independent voters, Trump leads Biden with 38 to 26 going into June.
00:16:49.000The national poll was conducted between May 29th and 31st of 1,675 registered voters with a margin of error of 2.5% and the verdict issued on May 30th did not seem to weaken his support.
00:17:38.000But if that's true, then that goes back to my question.
00:17:41.000At some point, the Democrats have to say, yes, we're motivated by irrationality and hatred, and it's our brand to be anti-Trump.
00:17:50.000But when they look at the numbers, Shouldn't someone say, the more — and I've got an answer, it's a rhetorical question — the more we jack it up, the worse it gets for us, the more money — the answer is, these are the same people who say, the more we do stupid policy X, and the worse the results are, means we're not doing it enough.
00:19:03.000You have people on CNN specific coming out and are really well respected to people to like someone like Fareed Zakaria is looked at as really well respected on CNN so like and to the viewer so like someone like that coming out and articulating very openly that this is a political persecution.
00:19:20.000The only reason Donald Trump is is being attacked or being prosecuted is because of his name because he's Donald Trump.
00:19:27.000That kind of confirmation of the criticisms coming from the right shakes the narrative that the right is always to be laughed at and to be mocked.
00:19:39.000Because at some point your average person starts to say, wait a minute.
00:19:44.000Like, I've seen what's happened the past four, the previous four years when Donald Trump was in office and how the media behaved and how they act.
00:19:51.000And I didn't like Donald Trump, but they seemed like they didn't like him.
00:19:53.000And so it seemed fine to me, whatever.
00:19:55.000But then afterwards, it seems like blah, blah, blah.
00:19:57.000And everything's gone kind of to crap with the Biden administration.
00:20:01.000And now they're still going after this guy.
00:20:02.000And I think that the average person is just like, I kind of don't buy it.
00:20:06.000And I really, and I think that you're seeing that in the evidences and stuff like the donations.
00:20:10.000I gotta, I gotta tell you, you know, I'm hanging out this weekend.
00:20:54.000And I'm like, If this, and this is a suburb about an hour from DC, I'm like, if this is the level of of like penetration that the Democrat narrative is reaching, I don't know if it's working for anybody.
00:21:34.000Like, at a certain point, the average American who has real things to worry about is just going to tune it all out.
00:21:39.000But I mean, which they must have considered because clearly a shotgun approach was contemplated and executed here.
00:21:47.000We're going to make him, we're going to make him convicted felon somewhere or maybe even everywhere if we possibly can.
00:21:56.000And the messaging that came out immediately, convicted felon, convicted, as if, as if that, like, The irony is they've destroyed mores and norms, but then they expect people, and they can get this from the likes of the corporate media, but outside of the corporate media and a few smooth-brained Republicans, to be fair, what they expect is for people to say, well, according to our traditional conceptions
00:22:31.000Who could possibly vote for a convicted felon?
00:22:35.000They don't see that they've completely destroyed the moral and cultural premise that they're trying to leverage.
00:22:44.000My favorite thing is you had, who was it who said they wanted a list?
00:23:40.000Donald Trump was president of the United States for four glorious years.
00:23:47.000And he couldn't get the Justice Department to do jack.
00:23:50.000In fact, they were in the process So my point was, I wasn't saying, I was not making the point that literally we are going to rely now on Donald Trump getting the job done.
00:24:00.000My point was, Sean said we should put lists together of people who should be arrested.
00:24:28.000And then I said the exact same thing and their brains exploded.
00:24:30.000Hypocrisy has not been a problem for them for a very, very long time.
00:24:35.000Well, for the average person on Twitter, On X. Okay.
00:24:39.000The prominent... Those are not the average person.
00:24:43.000So, for these personalities who are prominent in media, who lack the cognitive capabilities to understand that I am saying their own words back at them.
00:24:54.000These people... This is what we're up against, essentially.
00:24:59.000It's not that they're hypocrites, it's that they lack cognitive function.
00:25:09.000BuzzFeed writers and people who work at Facebook and people who work at Vox do not have the capabilities of mind to understand logic.
00:25:19.000I can tell you this as someone with experience having worked with some of these people.
00:25:24.000I remember when I worked at Fusion and one woman had a dollar.
00:25:27.000She took a dollar and she drew a line at the 77% mark and scribbled out a block.
00:25:34.000She put it in her cubicle and then she put like, it said something like, my goal or whatever.
00:25:39.000It's like, finish the rest or something.
00:25:41.000And I'm just like, there's a person who's never read two sentences about something she dedicated, you know, five minutes to making art for in her cubicle.
00:26:17.000Do you agree with Tim that anyone could actually get a driver's license, register to vote, buy groceries every week, and not have the cognitive capacity to understand?
00:26:37.000I think, short of saying that they're sitting there and saying, I'm being a cynical SOB and I'm Snidely Whiplash, what I think is equally possible is that they are in a sort of psychological-emotional denial loop.
00:27:37.000The Visigoths will find employment for them.
00:27:39.000They will scream, I demand the government do it for me, because they don't know how to do it.
00:27:44.000And the problem is not that these individuals were, I should say, it is a problem to a certain extent that they were indoctrinated by communists.
00:27:52.000But that was only possible because the previous generation did not properly equip them as children and teach them and develop the neural pathways required.
00:28:03.000By the time you're in your mid-twenties, the likelihood that these developmentally stunted people are going to figure it out on their own is close to zero.
00:28:13.000Imagine overnight we erased human civilization.
00:29:23.000I knew one guy who told me once when I was there, I think he comes up north from the mountains, it pours down, so there's a natural pressure that they have that allows them to maintain the water pressure up to a certain height in the buildings.
00:29:42.000And so if civilization just, everyone woke up, and it was just we have erased all signs of human civilization, I would say the conservatives who live in the cities would—they'd be in trouble, but they'd probably be the first to flee.
00:29:56.000They'd have some general understanding.
00:29:58.000Conservatives in rural areas overwhelmingly would be like, well, that's strange.
00:30:02.000And then they'd start building and putting things back together.
00:30:05.000And then there'd be a lot that would have no idea.
00:30:08.000I mean, I suppose if we're talking about no houses or anything.
00:30:11.000Okay, you've gotten a bit far afield, I think, from the point that I think—and therefore, bring it home.
00:30:31.000I think there is, I agree with what you're saying, I think there is a level of, there's inherent resistance to logic, whether it's because they literally cannot understand it or because they are so emotionally- It's metaphysical.
00:30:43.000Emotionally tied up in the ideology they believe in that they just push away from it.
00:30:47.000I was looking, I saw this video today, and I wish I could give credit to whoever made it, it was a man on the street asking these girls, I think in Arizona, you know, which one of these two guys would you date?
00:30:55.000And one of them is like pink hair, he's chubby, he's like holding a donut, he looks weird.
00:31:00.000ripped and handsome, he's wearing a Trump t-shirt. And these girls kept being like,
00:31:04.000oh well, this the pink-haired guy looks nice and I don't really like buff guys.
00:31:10.000It was like back to back to back and you can see what the subtext is. They say
00:31:14.000you're wearing a Trump shirt, I can't pick you, I can't like this guy, I can't
00:31:17.000even acknowledge that he's more attractive. Or is it what they say for public
00:31:34.000Either way, whether they're fooling themselves or they're just saying, like, Either way, it doesn't matter because it's just this is how this group of people is making decisions.
00:31:44.000It took one girl eventually who was like, no, I date the ripped guy.
00:31:47.000He looks conservative and he works out.
00:31:49.000Like all of these girls probably would say the same thing, but they feel as though whether they're really, really ignoring the logic, they really believe they don't like attractive men or the Trump shirt is so repulsive to them that they know they cannot be associated with any way and that this is being recorded.
00:34:37.000I'm making no comment about the intellectual property aspects of this.
00:34:43.000Let me tell you about how smart they are.
00:34:45.000President Prison, it's presidentprison.com, and they are tracking the amount of sales they have between the two coins.
00:34:52.000You ever go to a tip, a coffee shop, and the tip jar is actually, there's two jars, and it says, you know, what kind of dog is better, and it's like Golden Retriever or Labrador, and then it's a trick so that you're like, oh, I have to make sure Labrador wins or whatever, and you get a bunch of money.
00:37:23.000So if what you say is true and it's Trump people who are going to like, you know, go out of their way, so all they have to do is just keep playing with the blue number whenever it gets interesting.
00:37:31.000They get a wave of Republicans buying the other one.
00:38:42.000No, to be fair though, to be fair though, because we are reasonable people, maybe the AOC one could be like her being fined by a judge on the back?
00:38:49.000You know, a fine for her ethics violation?
00:39:08.000On the back, it's looking at a prison cell through the window.
00:39:11.000On the front, it's looking through the bars.
00:39:13.000I like the idea that if you lose, you know, when you go to be elected, if you lose the election, you go to jail for the entire time that you would have been in office, whatever it is.
00:39:34.000So it's got to be actually that you go to jail if you win.
00:39:39.000Congress is an island, isolated from everybody.
00:39:42.000You'll wear a gray jumpsuit, and you will be there for the rest of your life.
00:39:46.000You get two terms, eight years, and afterwards you can't leave, and you cut off all communications other than you can read the internet, but you can't post anything.
00:39:57.000I want somebody to make the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Bar Factory golden ticket thing, and then we all get a trip to the White House if we get the golden ticket.
00:40:04.000Like, if we're just selling things based on politics, there's more things that are fun for me than double-sided coins.
00:40:09.000That sounds like something Trump might actually do, though.
00:40:11.000Look, Trump campaign, if you roll that out there, let me know.
00:40:34.000The fact that the option is if you lose, you go to prison, that's something that we have That's something that historically we've taken pride in the fact that we didn't do that, right?
00:40:43.000Like, it was Banana Republics that did that.
00:40:45.000It wasn't, you know, we did... Americans didn't do that.
00:40:47.000We used to have the country with pride.
00:41:07.000Less than five days later, we're like, hey, look, they're making coins if presidents go to prison.
00:41:13.000Nothing beats the mug shop merch drop that the Trump campaign pulled off.
00:41:16.000The fact that they were immediately like, and here are T-shirts and mugs.
00:41:19.000But that goes to our original point, which is that the Democrats are thinking that we're going to smear him.
00:41:29.000He's smear-proof, both because he's Donald Trump.
00:41:32.000I mean, I don't know what he did with Stormy Daniels, but I don't know anyone like Stormy Daniels.
00:41:39.000There's no one like that in my life, and nor is there anyone like Michael Cohen in my life.
00:41:48.000They've also, again, they've made the standards by which smears become relevant irrelevant.
00:41:53.000But it doesn't matter if they're smearing it because they've lied about so much we know they lied about.
00:41:57.000So now they could, like, there could be a video comes out of Donald Trump kicking a golden doodle and we're gonna be like, it's deepfake.
00:42:04.000I just don't believe these people anymore.
00:42:06.000They manipulated video, the Shinzo Abe koi fish video, edited so that you didn't realize Shinzo Abe fed the fish first and then Trump followed suit.
00:42:24.000It must be weird for the Biden campaign, where the polls are showing that independents would rather pick this convicted felon they created over their actual incumbent.
00:43:30.000But there's a lot of feedback from non-conservatives.
00:43:37.000The criminal defense bar, which has been worthless, worthless, starting with the whole Michael Cohen, everything.
00:43:45.000I mean, the people, supposedly the civil rights guys.
00:43:48.000Then you have a guy like Scott Greenfield, who's conventional middle-of-the-road liberal, you know, a very hard-ass criminal defense lawyer, beginning to speak out and talk about what, there's something, there's just really something wrong here.
00:44:11.000And is it really true that there's absolutely no limit?
00:44:16.000You're asking me what do I think is going to happen?
00:44:20.000Even if they give him two weeks, that will get the job done.
00:45:33.000They take this tweet from Ron Filipkowski, says Aaron Rodgers remains in his seat and ignores convicted felon Trump as he walks by tonight at UFC fight.
00:46:13.000The reason why they need to claim That Aaron Rodgers snubbed him is because they need to be able to go to the people who aren't paying attention and say, major athletes don't like Trump.
00:46:56.000There's some really good 2016 stuff in there, okay?
00:47:00.000This man is so... The people who despise him cannot conceive of that kind of Personality, that kind of self-assuredness and embracing life.
00:47:19.000Think in contradistinction of that low life.
00:47:26.000What's his name, the one who was filmed after Hillary lost, sitting and it looked like he was going to kill himself?
00:47:46.000He's a, I mean he's just, to be such a pathological liar, but a man like that is broken.
00:47:54.000And how a man like this, no matter what else you think of him, and most of what you think of him that's negative, is not relevant to his qualifications for president.
00:48:06.000And one of my things that my wife is always saying is, I don't, what you hear, you know, the women, I don't like him.
00:48:12.000I don't like, he's, as if they are considering him for a mate.
00:48:22.000There's a funny viral post where apparently, I can't remember where this post was, someone said they were at a party and then all the guys started chanting Trump and singing the National Anthem and all the women just started looking at each other like, what do we do?
00:48:36.000That's another thing that Jayna was telling me.
00:48:45.000But women are more likely to look around and see what they're supposed to do.
00:48:51.000Well, women look for social cohesion, right?
00:48:53.000So there's a level of, like, if they are surrounded by other conservative women, they behave differently than when you put them in, I don't know, in all women's college that's governed completely by left-leaning progressive academics.
00:49:03.000What stood out to me about the UFC fight, and I don't know if we have a clip of it, but when Trump walked out with Dana White, you know, he's going through the crowd and it reminds me of when fighters walk out.
00:49:13.000and they're playing music and it was like he was having his own walk out to the fight.
00:49:17.000Like the symbolic nature, the picture here could not have been any more powerful coming
00:49:22.000off the conviction because it really gave this energy of like, well, we're just going
00:51:17.000He's probably spent more time there on campaign trips than he ever has in an actual human capacity, whereas Donald Trump, especially, you know, the time that he spent in New York, He actually was a big part of New York's development and he did have a relationship with, you know, especially the construction industry and in buildings.
00:51:34.000And he seems more real almost because he just hasn't had this insulated bubble that Biden has.
00:51:40.000And I think this is one of the interesting things coming up against, you know, we had this historic conviction of a president in New York and now we're going to go to the federal trial of Hunter Biden.
00:51:48.000The first time, as far as I know, the child of a president has been brought up on charges like this.
00:51:54.000It's such a contrast because he seems like just of a different world than the Trump family, even though theoretically they're all people who have been in the White House and move in elite circles.
00:52:05.000They just don't read the same way to the American people.
00:52:08.000You know, we're all real excited about 2024, but I'm really curious about 2028.
00:52:16.000That's an incredible statement of optimism on your part.
00:52:18.000I don't know, it doesn't mean it's optimistic.
00:52:19.000No, you think there's gonna be... Yes.
00:52:23.000You know, there's the famous quote, I know not which voting machines will be used in November of 2024, but in 2028 we'll be voting with sticks and stones.
00:52:34.000Okay, so as long as we have clear on that.
00:53:00.000When you watch the UFC stuff and you see everyone screaming and cheering for Trump, Their narrative doesn't work. Trump's donations show the
00:53:08.000polls can be whatever they want. Polls are trash, okay? We pulled the polls, and I'll mention who
00:53:13.000knows, because they're going to be like, we polled a thousand people and found that 70% are
00:53:17.000voting for Biden. It's like, also 70% of them were Democrats, and that's why we got the results. You
00:53:23.000know what you can't screw around with? Donations. Did someone give money? Did they give
00:53:27.000money? Yes. All the money in the world couldn't get a single judge to actually look at the
00:53:32.000evidence of voter fraud. Right, but what I'm saying is, to determine the popularity of Donald Trump, you
00:54:40.000The only question is, has the system by which we choose our leaders become, has it become so utterly corrupt that popularity and actual votes cast Look, if it were up to the Democrats, they would pass laws in every state guaranteeing mail-in ballots and... Guaranteeing?
00:55:53.000Judge rejects call to immediately shut down Alex Jones' InfoWars and bankruptcy dispute.
00:56:00.000You may have seen over the weekend Alex Jones giving a heartfelt plea saying the feds were trying to come in, shut down InfoWars, seize his assets, liquidate everything, and it would be no more.
00:56:10.000Well, ABC News reports after a weekend in which conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, gotta add that, warned that his media company faced an imminent shutdown by the federal government because of his bankruptcy cases.
00:56:19.000A judge on Monday allowed Jones to keep operating for the next two weeks while it is decided whether his assets should be liquidated.
00:56:26.000Both Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems, filed for bankruptcy reorganization after he lost two lawsuits and was ordered to pay $1.5 billion to relatives of victims of the Sandy Hook shooting.
00:56:37.000They sued Jones, we know. The families have opposed Jones' reorganization plans.
00:56:41.000On Sunday, they filed an emergency motion to convert Free Speech Systems Bankruptcy
00:56:45.000Organization into a liquidation, saying Jones has not made progress in showing how he will
00:56:49.000pay the lawsuit judgments. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez in Houston said Monday that
00:56:53.000he will address the motion on June 14th. Jones went on his web show over the weekend with an
00:56:58.000emergency broadcast. Now, here's what I will say. It makes no sense if you need, if you want someone
00:57:05.000to pay you to shut down their multi-million dollar business.
00:57:09.000But it makes perfect sense if the entire purpose of your lawsuit was to destroy Alex Jones.
00:57:13.000Was to destroy him and silence his voice.
00:57:16.000This lawsuit is one of the great travesties of non-criminal law in the last, really in my entire life.
00:57:26.000Ron, do you think that this kind of set the stage for what they did with Trump?
00:57:31.000No, no, I think this is on a separate track.
00:57:35.000I agree with you that if they could have cooked up something like this, they would have.
00:57:42.000But this is... But this is what they did to Trump in the civil fraud case with his properties.
00:57:50.000Yeah, but not in the sense of shutting down his voice.
00:57:53.000I mean, you know, they want Alex Jones, I mean... You can't silence Alex Jones.
00:58:07.000If they took everything from him, he'd go buy an iPhone, put it on a tripod in a parking lot, and his show is back on the air.
00:58:13.000But to be fair, to be fair, if I would have told you a year ago that Tucker Carlson would be as little of an impact in the conversation as he is now, would you have been surprised to hear me say that?
00:58:29.000I think everyone thought he would roll out his own thing without Fox, and everyone—it would be like TimCast Plus.
00:58:42.000The issue being that we've long tracked the ratings for, like, Tucker and for other cable networks and ragged on CNN, and we've pointed out Tucker's key demo viewership was 400,000 on average.
00:58:54.000They would say he gets 3 million per night, but those were 65 plus.
00:58:59.000When he moves out of Fox and into social media, his ratings should follow with where those demographics are.
00:59:06.000So you will capture some of the older crowd, but mostly it's going to be millennials.
00:59:10.000His viewership should remain steady at about 400k per night.
00:59:27.000He moved off of this platform where people were expecting him to be, and it's maybe not exactly the same force, but people still look to Tucker for his opinion.
01:00:24.000You know, Alex Jones' influence before they mass-banned him was tremendous.
01:00:29.000I was in Sweden in 2017 when I was covering the migrant thing, and I went to a Thai food restaurant, and this was in, I think it was in Södertälje, and there were three young Swedish men sitting behind us, and then I hear them laughing, and it's Alex Jones.
01:00:46.000And then I look over, and it's a video of Alex Jones ranting, and he rips his shirt off, and they were all laughing, and I'm like, Alex Jones is, like, they love him.
01:01:21.000Alex Jones will still be able to have some kind of show.
01:01:24.000He will still be rich, and he'll be rich for the rest of his life.
01:01:27.000But they are trying to destroy what is left of his infrastructure.
01:01:33.000If they were to seize everything from him and then he literally just bought because he easily would be able to.
01:01:41.000Let's say they took every penny and all of his clothing and they made him wear a potato sack.
01:01:49.000It would take him two seconds, somebody he knows would instantly be like, Alex Jones, I'm going to film a video for you real quick and post it on the next.
01:01:55.000And it would say, hey everybody, pitch in to buy Alex Jones a new suit, get him a computer.
01:02:03.000He'd then set up a computer, set up his show, his viewers, and I'd be willing to bet His viewership would actually spike massively in the short term because everyone's wanting to see what happened.
01:02:14.000He would immediately sign up a whole bunch of new members to his new company.
01:02:17.000And you can't shut down a person like Alex Jones because people want to watch him.
01:02:22.000And I think InfoWars has done well in developing other people like Alex Jones is at the head, but I think of Owen Schroer, like when he had to go.
01:02:30.000Uh, to jail because of his involvement in January 6th.
01:02:37.000Oh, well, I thought InfoWars was just Alex Jones, and it's not.
01:02:39.000I mean, and the latest update with that was that the Supreme Court just rejected his, uh, First Amendment petition.
01:02:44.000He was saying you need to, you need to, uh, overturn my case.
01:02:47.000And I think it's interesting that there is sort of, you know, this thing that Alex Jones has built has become this, uh, This really representation of controversial free speech opinions, coupled with people who are really tenacious and trying to push forward, like you don't have to agree with everything that's there.
01:03:04.000At the same time, why are they being scrutinized away that other media companies are not?
01:03:14.000It was one that should not have been allowed to be turned on him in this manner because it's irresponsible and hurtful and stupid and nutty as it was.
01:03:31.000Well, you say he gave him a weapon, but my understanding is that, I could be wrong, I don't know, in Texas, what Alex was saying is you have to specifically name the individuals to have defamed them.
01:03:42.000And by making broad generalizations about a group, it's not defamation.
01:04:12.000The point being then, if you're calling it, Alex giving them a weapon, then the only thing Alex can do is not speak about certain topics because even though he did nothing wrong, they will turn it against him.
01:05:04.000The first thing we saw was the coordination between all the major tech companies to silence not just Alex Jones but several others including Milo Yiannopoulos, Paul Joseph Watson, others.
01:05:29.000Fareed Zakaria said that they would have never brought this case against someone whose name was not Donald Trump.
01:05:35.000When Fareed Zakaria is on CNN primetime, I think it was primetime, saying, this is not legitimate, I think it's clear to the average person watching what's going on, the system is gone.
01:05:46.000I guess the issue is, you get to a point where, when the majority of people in a country don't want to be involved, This is where you end up.
01:05:58.000All that is required for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing.
01:06:03.000It's not a question of today, because today we're seeing a lot of good men start to stand up and get involved, especially people who are younger, who are now aging into a corrupt system, wanting to be involved.
01:06:13.000What I'm saying is that probably two generations ago, you had adults who said, don't talk about politics at the dinner table.
01:06:32.000And now we're at a point where what was once a dominant Christian nation has allowed abject corruption and degeneracy to run wild.
01:06:42.000And it is because, in my opinion, over the past several generations, too many men said, do not talk politics, do not talk religion, do not talk money.
01:07:55.000And everyone says, okay, fine, just leave him alone.
01:07:57.000Then they say, well, if I'm walking with my significant other and you're yelling at me, you're not leaving me alone, so let me be out in public and not—okay, that's fine, you can be out in public.
01:08:04.000Then they said, yes, but we won't do anything unless we're in the privacy of our own home.
01:08:18.000We're at the point now where viral videos of grown men with distended guts shaking their whitey tighties in front of children and thrusting their junk in front of kids.
01:08:29.000Whose parents are right there with them.
01:09:27.000It's not an issue of government or law.
01:09:29.000It's an issue of what do you, as a society, shun, ostracize, accept, or otherwise.
01:09:35.000And it's not an issue of whether two people want to live their lives and be in the privacy of their own homes.
01:09:39.000The issue is they're outright spitting in your face.
01:09:44.000And telling you that they will wrong you and they will attack you.
01:09:50.000So the drawing of the line, the not doing nothing, let's see if you're a libertarian, or even if you're just a person with any functioning neurons, you should have given up on public schools a long time ago.
01:10:03.000If you're a libertarian, you'd be against them in the first place.
01:10:06.000Public schools are the interface, and you alluded to this a second ago.
01:10:11.000That's where the communists are subverting your children's morals.
01:10:18.000But how can we, as value-neutral people, without religion... No, we're not value-neutral.
01:11:35.000He was a liberal Republican, but a Republican all the same.
01:11:39.000Marching in the gay pride parade, but not just marching in it.
01:11:42.000He was in some kind of fruity costume, okay?
01:11:45.000And I'm thinking to myself, This is the guy who really has brought New York back from the brink with his law and order approaches.
01:11:53.000Okay, he was obviously, he is not, I don't know what he's doing today or tonight, but we learned about from his, regarding his personal life and he wasn't necessarily a moral, you know, beacon, but this go along, go along and get along attitude that it's all in good fun.
01:12:16.000The public sector, the leadership, the signals, not only in schools but among politicians, that's a very big part of the problem.
01:12:24.000So I'm not talking about pride parades.
01:12:26.000You started out talking about pride parades.
01:13:34.000It's about people who love each other.
01:13:35.000And then I said, how come the clothing store, I'm like 12, the clothing store next door, like one block over, the mannequins have genitals and they're engaging in adult acts on each other.
01:13:48.000How come there's a bathhouse across the street where it's literally just where a bunch of men do drugs and have sex and it's all illegal and everyone knows it's happening?
01:13:56.000Alright, but those kinds of, when you say it's illegal, including the public sex, a libertarian should not have any problem with those things being legal.
01:14:08.000So, I suppose the question you're asking is, Or the point you're bringing up is the idea of the low libertarian generic nonsensical psychopath who thinks people can do whatever they want.
01:14:29.000Because people generally are like, we are overregulated, we are overtaxed, we are overburdened, our government is waging unjust wars, it's selling out our workers and our jobs.
01:15:17.000I don't think libertarians are anarchists or anarchists are libertarians.
01:15:19.000I mean, you could argue that anarchism is on the libertarian spectrum at the very bottom, but if you go to the average libertarian, they're going to argue, yet we're all having a meeting right now to discuss policy because we don't think there should be nothing.
01:15:30.000There should be at least something and to varying degrees.
01:15:33.000But libertarians absolutely would have a problem with people breaking the law in public because libertarians still believe there should be private police forces to stop crime.
01:16:11.000And I can give you the actual hard breakdown.
01:16:15.000It's not some moral, oh no, oh won't someone think of the children.
01:16:18.000It is behavioral sync injected into the mind of a child that results in higher rates of depression and self-harm.
01:16:25.000Confusing, when kids watch things that are challenging for adults to see.
01:16:33.000Snuff films appearing on social media.
01:16:36.000It damages them mentally and it can cause it can cause to let's just put it simply we have seen more than enough it is a video going viral right now and I don't want to single anybody out of a woman who's on hormones just screaming into her camera about and she had gone viral before about how her life is destroyed her life is ruined she has no friends she can't think she can't feel anymore something's wrong with her and I'm like when you take When you take these videos, Instagram has bondage.
01:17:15.000Naked women, only covered by the ropes that are squeezing their bodies constricted as they hang from ceilings.
01:17:21.000On Instagram, children are looking at.
01:17:23.000When kids see that, it wires their brain in a certain way, and when they get older, they suffer from mental health issues, depressive issues, self-harm.
01:17:36.000And yet we're living in a world in which guidance counselors and school librarians and teachers are sidling up the children and asking them whether they really want to be little boys instead of being little girls.
01:17:48.000The idea of sex education in schools Like, there is no reason for it.
01:18:35.000They're bringing in books about kink and damaging... Look, I don't want to get too much into it on a show that we try to say these things because people have their kids listening, but let me just say that in one of the books that we've routinely talked about, it explains to children the process of consuming bodily waste, which will kill you.
01:18:56.000That is not functioning reproduction or sex ed.
01:18:59.000That is DSM-5, PICA, Telling people that they're going to be titillated from eating diseased waste from their own bodies.
01:19:09.000And you had that video of the guy in Spain.
01:19:46.000Because all of it is intended to basically make kids unsure of themselves in a time when they're learning about the whole world, like learning about their bodies changing and stuff, and then there is essentially authority figures injecting themselves into their lives, telling them things that they wouldn't think of on their own, they wouldn't, you know, they probably wouldn't come across this stuff on their own.
01:20:13.000There might be some kids that would end up gay or lesbian that wouldn't have someone to explain it to them, explain what they're feeling, but I'm willing to bet the number of gay and lesbian kids that would end up having a problem figuring out that they're gay or lesbian is fewer than the number of penises and breasts that you cut off.
01:21:50.000And I'm reading the front page of AOL, I'm reading news when I was 12 or 13, I'm working at my family's coffee shop, there were adults talking politics, and so I'm learning all these things.
01:22:01.000And then when I would try and talk about the things, I'm 16 and I'm reading the news about war and things like this, Afghanistan, and everyone, all of my friends, family, oh no, no, no, we don't talk politics!
01:22:17.000I don't think it's the only factor, but it's a strong root, where you need to be involved and understand what's going on in your community.
01:22:27.000The assumption was that everybody's a liberal.
01:22:32.000The issue is, if a guy gets drunk and crashes the car, a politician got drunk and crashed his car into a building, and you were like, did you hear about that Alderman?
01:23:04.000And the only thing the kids are learning is from the crackpots in your school.
01:23:06.000You're not instilling your values into your children.
01:23:09.000I don't even think it's that parents say, we don't talk politics at the dinner table.
01:23:11.000I think it's that families don't eat dinner together.
01:23:13.000I think that we are a broken culture that doesn't have anybody who has a connection.
01:23:18.000When you talk about these kids, like Phil's talking about kids who are in school, counseled, like, oh, well, maybe you could have gender dysphoria by their guidance counselors, right?
01:23:25.000I was just listening to an interview with someone who was, like, talking about being queer and then going to medical school.
01:23:31.000It was a time where parents would pull kids out of school if someone said that to them.
01:23:34.000And I know parents who have done that.
01:23:35.000I mean, the thing is, like, this person who went on medical school was saying, like, oh, yeah, well, you know, when I talk to teens, they're saying, like, well, maybe your parents don't understand and maybe we need to make a plan or whatever.
01:23:47.000It's to divide children from their families, but families aren't doing enough legwork to say this is where I check in with you every day.
01:23:53.000I mean, I remember talking about this.
01:23:57.000The Sandusky case in Ohio, when that coach got caught, you know, abusing children.
01:24:02.000One of the things that always gets me, and maybe I get this wrong, it's been a long time since I talked about the story, but one of the first reports I heard was one of the first young victims to come forward came forward because his mom realized that he had taken a shower after practice.
01:24:31.000Like, yeah, maybe your parents don't want to talk about certain things at the dinner table, but there has to be a dinner table for them to discuss anything there.
01:24:37.000They have to spend time with their children.
01:24:39.000They can't just park them in after school programs or in front of the TV and say, well, they'll turn out to have my values.
01:24:44.000If you're not actively engaging with your children, of course they're being warped by the system that they're in.
01:24:48.000And especially if you're giving them an iPhone when they're 12.
01:25:53.000And then, uh, around eighth grade, when I was sixth, seventh grade, they upgraded all the Apple to, uh, PC.
01:26:01.000And all of a sudden, you had internet, you had way more games, and, uh, Well, me and my friends who know how to use computers knew how to easily bypass the parental restrictions and get whatever we wanted, but my point is, the school said, you can't go to these websites.
01:27:19.000I hit it and put not interested, don't send me this.
01:27:22.000And then it turns out it's actually particularly prominent on Instagram, that they have overt, hardcore fetish content to an extreme degree.
01:27:33.000So the way people post porn on Instagram is You know that thing they do on Instagram where they'll post nine photos that are each a piece of a photo?
01:27:43.000And when you go to the profile, it forms one big photograph on their profile?
01:28:10.000And there's screenshots consistently from hardcore videos that appear on Instagram that are shared by tons of high-profile pages with tons of followers, and they just censor out the most extreme part.
01:28:22.000But what they'll do is they will get the one pixel past where the woman is with the man, but you can see the man and the woman and their faces and everything else And they cut off only that one part, and I'm like, it's obvious this is hardcore pornography on Instagram.
01:28:58.000One of my all-time big Twitter posts, ex-tweets, is one where I condemn public schools, and many, many people would reply to me saying, people with similar worldviews to mine, No, our schools are fine.
01:31:46.000You say something that—and it's funny, because one corporation, one foreign government, and these people fall for it super easily.
01:31:55.000That's why I made the poll, because you'll see that there's a lot of extremely vocal anti-Israel people—and you're allowed to be anti-Israel, I don't care about that—but they act like leftists in the activist tactic.
01:32:11.000An example is, one guy will call a business 50 times each time from a different phone number using a spoofer.
01:32:20.000So the business thinks, 50 people have called us, what's going on?
01:32:24.000Then they'll go online and see 30 different reviews, all from one guy.
01:32:29.000And they will believe that hundreds of people are mad at them for doing something wrong.
01:32:36.000This is what they're doing right now on social media.
01:32:39.000You get, um, we had a Helena Kirshner, who is a detransitioner, who explained this.
01:32:43.000She went on social media website and she was like, you know, I'm not feeling too good and she, I don't know exactly how the story goes, but she ends up posting a picture of herself and they were like, hey, maybe you're trans.
01:33:07.000She said, I don't know anything about what trans is.
01:33:09.000And they were like, well, some people are sad because they're actually transgender and they're supposed to be boys or girls, and they don't know it.
01:35:04.000It's just another version of the fire.
01:35:06.000So you, you, uh, this is a wild story because apparently there's like a local that, I don't want to blow this person up, I'd love to talk to them.
01:35:45.000Depending on what the guys with the banjos.
01:35:47.000There's a local out here who is a woman, who one day said, and this is a local, so people might know who this person is, and I mean no disrespect, but I'm gonna tell the story as I've heard it.
01:35:56.000She was like, I think I want to be a guy.
01:35:58.000She had kids, and everyone was like, okay.
01:36:03.000So for a year she took testosterone, and then after a year and growing facial hair and changing her voice, she became depressed and said that was a huge mistake, I was wrong, I was lied to, I hate this.
01:36:12.000Because people go online, and I think what happens is, they do this to themselves, they're miserable in it, but they're thinking, some people are crabs in a bucket and a barrel.
01:36:24.000And the kids in the schools who are victims, and my wife writes about this a lot, she's a contributor at Legal Insurrection, and she follows these cases, she's a lawyer and writer, and it's inevitably the kids who are You know, ruined by this in the schools, are kids who are unhappy.
01:36:52.000As a significant percentage of kids are in schools, because school's hard, the social aspect of school is hard, and being different, lots of kinds of being different can make you lots of kinds of unhappy.
01:37:13.000And anyone who has any sort of, you know, malwishes for your children who says, actually, this worked for me, so it must work for everybody, even though they're actually unhappy themselves, they know who they're looking for.
01:37:24.000And I think that's, again, one of the saddest parts of having a degraded culture.
01:37:29.000I mean, having a lack of community around people who need help.
01:37:32.000I think especially young adults, you know, 10 to 14 year olds, like, They don't feel comfortable in who they are.
01:37:52.000It's crazy that this is just something that all kinds of people will line up and saying like, but we have to, otherwise you're a bigot.
01:37:58.000We're gonna go to Super Chats, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with all of your friends if you do like it, it's the best way to help, and head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member if you'd like to call in to our members-only call-in show, and actually join the show and talk to us and our guests.
01:38:15.000In the meantime, though, we will take your Super Chats.
01:38:51.000So therefore, the Republicans should not interrupt their making a mistake by going after Joe Biden and playing the same game and falling into the mud with them.
01:38:59.000Let them, you know, lie with the dogs, get fleas.
01:39:01.000The Democrats want to play this dirty game.
01:39:04.000The challenge is we all want to see accountability, but maybe we wait until January to try and get that accountability, because right now Trump is on track to win.
01:41:37.000So if you're a liar, you're a liar, you get caught.
01:41:40.000Especially if you're a liar on camera.
01:41:41.000And I assume he kind of knew what he was going into, right?
01:41:44.000I mean, a lot of networks have a token other side person that eventually is just the punching bag that you bring out to be in this position.
01:42:08.000And Hannity is not exactly a member of the Oxford Union, but in terms of, you know, Sean has his technique, but I don't think they even bother with that anymore.
01:42:20.000I mean, it's a very offensive thing on the left to be engaged in.
01:43:38.000We might have to work that one out because it's a debate show.
01:43:42.000And so it's probably better to make sure that whoever comes on the night of the debate is there to comment on strict politics and not have some guess who's going to waste their time.
01:43:50.000But Dave Smith is a great person to have on during a debate show because he's not He's not necessarily pro or anti anybody, although I'm pretty sure he's going to vote for Donald Trump.
01:44:35.000I'm talking about the libertarians, not talking about you.
01:44:38.000Mike Termat, who spiked Recktenwald at the Libertarian Convention by saying, I will be the VP.
01:44:44.000I'm pretty sure it was him who said, when Trump was coming out, he said, if you're not voting on principle, you're wasting your vote.
01:44:52.000The idea now that anyone in the Libertarian Party should or would, if they are Mises Caucus, Ron Paul Libertarians, support a guy whose woke leftist open borders is a violation of their own principles.
01:45:04.000If they are a person that doesn't like Donald Trump, and they would vote for Chase Oliver anyways, and they're in the blue state, that's taking a vote from Joe Biden.
01:45:14.000If you're saying, don't vote Biden, I don't care who you vote for.
01:46:06.000And it just so happens to be that the libertarians that are the right-leaning libertarians, the Mises caucus, they're the ones that are most likely to say, you know what, I'd rather vote for Trump because he's not going to trans the kids.
01:46:25.000And they tried lying because he was like, but I don't agree with government mandates, just private ones.
01:46:30.000And I'm like, the mandates were private.
01:46:33.000There was the one instance where Biden said companies over 100 employees have to vaccinate their employees.
01:46:37.000But the overwhelming majority of mandates came at a private level.
01:46:41.000People were locked in their homes, couldn't go anywhere, couldn't go to venues, not because of the government, but because of private businesses barring them from doing so.
01:48:48.000It just tastes like- But, uh, Ian- Ian will be back, uh, I don't know how long, but he'll be back in about a week or so, so you'll probably see him make an appearance.
01:51:00.000So I'm telling you, it's like, you can win one thing, or just keep losing everything.
01:51:06.000And I'm not saying it means you should vote for him, I'm just saying for me, my mentality is like, Look, the economy was good.
01:51:12.000Spending was—there were problems with spendings.
01:51:14.000I understand the drone strikes because he was pulling troops back and needing to maintain security in a certain area, so replacing—that's how you wean away from these wars.
01:51:24.000And the peace agreements, the Abraham Accords, the North Korea stuff, I'm like—I mean, we haven't got any other president who's ever tried to bring peace like that before.
01:51:31.000And I'll give a shout-out, too, because at the Libertarian Convention, when I mentioned, before the Trump interview, I was talking to a bunch of Libertarians, I was like, I need to ask Trump about that North Korea stuff.
01:51:42.000Every single Libertarian I talked to said, what Trump did with North Korea needs to get more attention because how often have we had a president who's tried to actually bring peace to an enemy nation we're at war with?
01:52:18.000Who would you vote for your state representative?
01:52:20.000And get that it's a presidential election year, it is a big deal, but you should probably do your research on the other candidates who are on the ticket because that is extremely important.
01:52:29.000Regardless of who you see in the White House, there are a lot of other aspects of governance, especially the ones that are local and affect you personally.
01:52:36.000Jacob Hawley says, Phil, crew, I need legal advice.
01:52:57.000There's so much, like... Lift heavy thing?
01:53:01.000Well, I mean, lift heavy thing, always lift heavy thing.
01:53:05.000But there's so much that we don't know about your individual situation that it's really, really, really difficult to give you any kind of advice at all.
01:53:15.000The best thing that I can think of is, like Tim said, like if you're not exercising, go exercise, like daily or at least a few times a week.
01:54:12.000And if you're losing people, you need to go out and continue to make friends.
01:54:17.000And it gets harder as you get older, I know, I understand, but still, you need to get out of your house, don't sit at home, go to the gym, exercise, take care of yourself.
01:54:27.000And hopefully those things will at least put you on a path to having a stronger mindset so you can deal with the challenges that are invariably going to come in your life, because everyone deals with these kind of things to some degree.
01:57:32.000It's the goddess card, it's a golden foil we're making, and it has a special ability that, based on some costs, and I won't give out too much away for the details, but the single card can be played as though it's two aces, so the best possible hand.
01:57:46.000We're basically taking poker and then adding special abilities and customizable decks.
01:57:51.000The art is almost all done for the base set, and then we're just going to be rolling them out.
01:57:55.000Simple version of this is, there's going to be tradable Nancy Pelosi cards where she's like, you know, on a throne of ice cream with poor people around her and stuff like that.
01:58:03.000And then people are going to want to buy those cards.
01:58:06.000We're going to do, um, probably not a good time for this joke.
01:58:10.000But, because we have a bunch of different sets, two of the cards we're making, one is, you know, Ultimate Alex Jones.
01:58:16.000We're not gonna use any real names, I don't need parody.
01:58:19.000But it's Alex Jones ripping his shirt off, and it's one of the most powerful cards.
01:58:22.000But then we also had Bankrupt Alex Jones, and it's him sitting on a street corner holding a sign saying, we'll call frogs gay for money.
01:58:31.000And as I was saying, poor timing for the joke, considering everything going on.
01:58:33.000We wish Alex Jones the best, but like it's to make fun of everything.
01:58:36.000And then we're gonna routinely roll out new designs and everything.
01:58:40.000And the point is to make trading cards for news events and cultural events
01:58:44.000and even have celebrities like Robert De Niro, of course, we're gonna make fun of him.
01:58:47.000And we've actually got a lot of it done.
01:58:50.000And it's called Debate Me, because the point of the game is, you're trying to make the best possible debate team, and you invite your followers to the debate, and whoever wins the debate, wins all the followers, and now they follow you.
