tim pool
Assuming everything that's happening today escalates, in about 50 years they'll look
back and claim that everything we're experiencing right now was a part of the Civil War, which
clearly started long before today, based on our perspective, our historical reference.
If everything calms down right now, they'll say there was never a Civil War and everything was just kind of crazy for that one short period.
So it's hard to know exactly what we're looking at.
But Senator Tom Cotton has said, well, he's likened what's going on to Fort Sumter.
And I want to look at Fort Sumter and talk about what's happening.
It's going beyond.
So I've talked a bit about this throughout the day on my channels.
We've got the state of Oregon rejecting federal authority.
The feds are in the courthouse.
According to a Bellingcat reporter, the insurrectionists have breached the courthouse at one point, I guess, and actually attacked them inside.
That's what he said.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And if that's the case, and the state is still supporting it, they are supporting insurrection against the feds and telling the feds to leave.
When they say to the feds, leave, they are saying, you have no authority here.
Man, that really is reminiscent of Fort Sumter.
For those not familiar, that's how the Civil War started.
The Union had Fort Sumter.
The South said, get out.
They said no.
Bang.
Shot her around the world.
adam crigler
Not just bang.
It was like 34 hours of of cannon fire.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Bombardment.
Yes.
tim pool
Well, that was the first battle, I guess.
So we'll take a look at this.
And then we've got some other stuff to just go over in general.
I mean, it's going beyond just this state.
Apparently, the district attorney in Philadelphia has threatened criminal charges against any federal agent who attempts to arrest one of these insurrectionists.
We're here, dude.
adam crigler
Yep, it's happening right now.
unidentified
Listen.
tim pool
I opened this specifically mentioning how in 50 years, if this escalates to a hot war with guns, they'll say that whatever we're in right now literally was part of it.
It could stop.
But when you have the DA in Philadelphia say, if the feds come here, and here's exactly what he said, unlawfully kidnap Unlawfully kidnapped?
Yeah, they'll face criminal charges.
The Feds have the authority to detain for questioning, just like any other cop.
They're just a different branch of the government, the federal government.
Could you imagine if one of the states told the Fed, if the DEA enters our state and tries to enforce drug laws, we will send our law enforcement against them to shut them down and arrest them and charge them and lock them up.
adam crigler
This is nuts.
tim pool
This is the states, now not just Oregon, we're saying Illinois, we're saying elements, are emerging, telling the Fed, we have authority over you.
adam crigler
that it's like they want their cities to burn this is the trap though this is the trap that we've been
talking about ever since chas
when when chas was a thing we were saying like they want trump to send in the
troops so they can be like ah ha see he's an authoritarian like
how long ago was that a month two months now there's no doubt that's what's happening
tim pool
Look, man, there's no narrative.
We often used to talk about the narrative, but now you've got Trump as a fascist who's occupying our cities.
You've got Trump is so desperate because his poll numbers are failing that he's trying to make it look like he's doing something.
Which is it?
Is he a fascist or is he flailing?
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
For real.
adam crigler
Well, they don't they don't care as long as they're getting people emotionally whipped up and Believing what they're saying.
I had someone hit me up today that was they were like trying to be like how dare you Say that these people aren't peaceful, you know, the feds are occupying and attacking people and I'm like, are you kidding me?
like I've been watching their actual videos of them recording them rip into the courthouse.
unidentified
Yep.
adam crigler
Like, how can you not tell me that they're peaceful?
Sorry, no, that's not how it works.
unidentified
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
adam crigler
I'm not here to argue with you, okay?
I'm just trying to tell you the way things are.
It's like, oh, okay, bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
If you only want to see your side of it, I'm good.
I'm done.
I'm done trying.
I'm not wasting my breath.
tim pool
But we're also going to drag Mr. Obama.
You see, I love America, Adam.
Do you know why I love America?
adam crigler
I can tell you why I love America, but why don't you tell me why you love America?
tim pool
It's called the First Amendment.
adam crigler
Love that First Amendment.
tim pool
We're going to drag Obama because he signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act Indefinite Detention Provision.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And now all of these people who are trying to get Joe Biden in are complaining about Trump?
You want to bring back the Obama administration?
Yes, I did that on purpose.
You want to bring back those guys?
You want to give the power back to Biden?
Well, he was the vice president when Barack Obama was like, America, I should be able to rendition any American citizen.
adam crigler
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
No, no, no.
Not any American citizen.
tim pool
Anyone in the world.
adam crigler
Anyone worldwide.
Continue.
Go on, please.
unidentified
It's the duty.
tim pool
That's the joke about Obama.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So Obama thought that he, you know, well, I got to give it to Congress, too.
They added this stuff.
He signed it into law.
So, you know, buck stops with him.
And now, the indefinite detention provision.
Federal authorities can rendition you.
You'll be sleeping in your bed, you'll wake up in an offshore oil rig being smacked up by federal agents, and you can thank Obama for that.
Thanks, Obama!
adam crigler
And that's legal.
tim pool
No, no, no, hold on, hold on.
adam crigler
Okay, go ahead.
tim pool
Just because they say it's legal doesn't mean it's legal, you know what I mean?
adam crigler
True, true, you're absolutely right.
tim pool
Barack Obama killed a bunch of Americans.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
None of it was legal!
Barack Obama literally murdered American people.
Like, I'm not exaggerating.
He ordered a drone strike which killed a 16-year-old American citizen, Abdul Rahman al-Awlaki.
Now, you want to argue that it was an accident, because that's apparently what they've claimed.
Okay, we'll give him manslaughter.
How about that?
Slap the cuffs on him.
Manslaughter.
Bring him in.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
No, it'll never happen.
Of course it won't.
adam crigler
Of course not.
tim pool
But Anwar al-Awlaki, I believe that was targeted Killing an American citizen on foreign soil, so yeah, let's talk about this.
See, look, I don't care at this point to go Obama, Obama, Obama, because it's long since passed.
We're in the Trump era now.
But the issue is, Joe Biden is running for president.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
If you want to argue Joe Biden is the right guy for the job, and you're concerned about Trump's goons, Gestapo kidnapping people, okay, well certainly don't give the reins to Joe Biden, who was part of the administration that created the indefinite detention provisions.
adam crigler
Oh, not to mention his...
Joe Biden is crooked.
of racism, racist remarks and bills that definitely hurt minorities and I'm you
unidentified
know we'll leave it at that. Joe Biden is crooked. I agree.
adam crigler
He's crooked crooked. I see it.
tim pool
Like look at his son. So what are we supposed to expect right now?
So first of all, wow, we're getting into it.
Let's just start.
adam crigler
Yeah, we're spiraling.
tim pool
Yeah, go ahead.
Ladies and gentlemen, there is one very, very important thing you must do.
Adam?
adam crigler
You must smash the like button.
Yes, I am not giving it my full... That's very calm.
I just, I'm not there anymore.
I am, the more I am just, you know, thinking logically and talking and working out my, what's happening, I just, I'm not that person that I was when I first told y'all to smash the like button.
You know what I mean?
I don't know.
tim pool
It's more reserved.
adam crigler
It doesn't feel right.
Next I'm gonna be wearing a suit.
unidentified
No.
tim pool
Cut your hair.
adam crigler
Hello everyone.
No, no, no, no.
tim pool
MAGA hat?
adam crigler
Maybe.
I don't know.
No, I love my hair.
tim pool
Red tie.
adam crigler
No, honestly, it's more just, eh, I don't care.
I don't care about my hair.
tim pool
All right, well, check it out.
We're gonna start from the beginning, and we're gonna talk about all this stuff, and we're gonna get into it.
We're gonna talk about history.
We're gonna talk about the latest development.
Well, it's not necessarily the latest development, but the district attorney's saying they'll charge any fed who tries to kidnap, or like, I mean, they can arrest people, but sure.
We're gonna go through all this, so make sure you do smash that like button if you haven't.
unidentified
Smash.

Let's jump into it!
We got Mr. Tom Cotton.
He doubles down on NYT op-ed, insurrectionists cannot be allowed to destroy federal property.
The Arkansas Republican Senator says the federal government has a duty to protect its facilities and people from insurrectionists.
Now, here's the most interesting part.
In an interview on Fox & Friends, Cotton pointed out that the insurrectionists in the streets of Portland, Oregon are little different from the insurrectionists who seceded from the Union in 1861 in South Carolina and tried to take over Fort Sumter.
And just like President Lincoln wouldn't stand for that, the federal government today cannot stand for the vandalism, the firebombing, or any attack on federal property.
It is right to send federal law enforcement to defend federal property and federal facilities.
While clashes with the police in Portland are an extreme case, the government has a responsibility to defend its installations and property, Cotton says.
The people expect it, and the Constitution calls for it.
Yet, where are we?
We have the claim that... Oh, let's just jump... Let's just... Let me pull it right up.
Trump's occupation of American cities.
Protesters are being snatched from the streets without warrants.
Can we call it fascism yet?
adam crigler
Can we talk about that Obama bill again?
tim pool
Yeah, I'll tell you what.
I'm down.
Yes, absolutely.
Fascism.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
Can you imagine what George W. Bush and Obama did to this country?
adam crigler
I can.
Well, I mean, I've seen it.
I've learned more about it.
And it's insane.
tim pool
But I'll tell you what, with everything they're saying, there is a huge difference between, you know, a group of dudes wearing all black, pulling up in an SUV randomly to the middle, you know, in the middle of the street in Brooklyn, and there's some, like, old lady and they throw a black bag overhead, throw in the car and drive off, never to be seen again.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And for 54 days, far leftists have been throwing commercial-grade fireworks at a building, and when the feds come out to make some arrests, they scream and cry, help, help, I'm being repressed.
So if you have, I love this, there's like a meme going around.
Someone wrote an article that says unidentified federal agents, you know, arresting people in Portland.
And the photo they use literally shows a guy with his, like his unit, his like unit number and his unit.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Border Patrol, his name, and it says like NZ 39.
And it's like, what do you mean unidentified?
Like he's got his patch and everything on him.
adam crigler
In the picture that they used.
tim pool
Lies, dude.
All lies.
adam crigler
I know, I see it.
tim pool
It's, you know, it's scary, man.
You're talking about, you know, people saying they're being peaceful and stuff like that, and you're arguing.
I don't think it matters.
I think we're well beyond this.
We're months away.
adam crigler
You're right.
tim pool
You know what's going to happen come election time?
There's going to be fights in the middle of the streets.
Who's going to get?
Look, the left has already said right wing goon squads are going to be like armed in front of polling stations to suppress the vote.
And the left will do the same thing.
And I don't I don't know, man.
adam crigler
Well, what is that saying?
Blame your enemies, what you do yourself, so that when it all comes out, they think that the enemy was doing it?
tim pool
Yeah, I don't know.
Sounds like a Linsky tactic.
adam crigler
I know, that's what it feels like the Democrats are doing.
They're the only ones that have been talking about all this stuff, and now Trump finally started saying something about it.
Well, I mean, it's been going on actually since 2016, now that I'm really looking into it all, you know, because he wasn't supposed to win.
They probably were fighting back then to make it happen in their favor.
tim pool
It's a good point.
I wonder about Russiagate, if there's one thing that Russiagate did was make sure Trump couldn't purge the intelligence
agencies and fire everybody.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
Yeah, because they called it obstruction of justice.
So I wonder if that was just them being like, don't, you can't arrest me.
So now if they can get Trump out of office before he can do any damage to them.
adam crigler
To the established.
tim pool
To the establishment.
Right.
Then they'll like try and salvage whatever, you know, weird tendrils they have in the system.
But if Trump wins, he wins.
This is it.
So the first cycle for Trump was them being like, we'll do everything to stop him.
When he lost, they were like, okay, now we need to stall him.
Now they need to crush him.
adam crigler
Now they need to destroy him.
tim pool
I'll tell you, man.
That's true.
adam crigler
That's what I'm seeing.
tim pool
It is the most annoying thing in the world to me.
How many times, like, times my friends will post a picture of a Fed, like, firing a pepper ball.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And then I'll be like, do you know the context of that photograph?
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Yeah, the Feds were snatching.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Did you watch the video?
No.
Did you watch any of the videos?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
You read a paragraph that said, unidentified.
Yep.
So what do you do?
It's so insane, because listen man, to everybody watching right now, man, we're preaching to the choir.
That's the challenge, we're preaching to the choir.
Of course, you guys are watching this, you saw the title, and you're open-minded to be like, this is an interesting topic, let's hear what's going on.
But these other people are just reading the New York Times, and look what the New York Times says!
Trump's occupation of American cities?
Whoa, hold on!
Department of Homeland Security, you can criticize it all you want, it was created by George W. Bush following 9-11, okay, absolutely, but the feds have authority to protect their own buildings.
adam crigler
That's correct.
tim pool
This is insane, to call it an occupation?
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean, listening to his speech the other day, he was he was saying, like, we are at the disposal of all these places.
All they have to do is ask us and we'll come help them.
Ask us.
You know, he's reaching out to Mayor Lightfoot, like, we'll come help you.
But they're like, no, no, no, we're good.
We want our cities to burn down.
tim pool
No, but this is different.
This is him saying our federal courthouses will be protected.
adam crigler
Right, right, right.
tim pool
They're ours.
It's our jurisdiction, not yours.
And they're saying, no, get out.
And they're calling it an occupation.
It's crazy.
For federal law enforcement.
Listen, every day in this country, there are federal courthouses with federal law enforcement inside them.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And federal judges.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And now they're telling Trump to remove these from their state.
They're suing to do it.
Fort Sumter, baby.
Let me show you this from Philly first, and then we'll talk about the first civil war.
This is from billypenn.com.
Philly rebuffs Trump's threat to send in feds over protests.
The president suggested he wanted to see what's happening in Portland spread to other U.S.
cities.
Is that how they frame it?
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
As if Trump wants the violence?
No.
That's insane.
So there's a couple things.
First, let me show you this.
They say Mayor Jim Kenney's administration confirmed it would oppose federal intervention, as did District Attorney Larry Krasner.
That the White House seeks to impose federal involvement in this way after months of abrogating its responsibility to lead a federal response to COVID-19 is both ironic and offensive, Kenney said in a statement.
Philadelphia has not received any formal notice that federal agents are en route.
The mayor said, adding that his administration would use all available means to resist such a wrong-headed effort and abuse of power.
It is not an abuse of power for the feds to be like, we're going to go to our courthouses.
But here's the escalation at the bottom.
So let me see if I can find it.
In a statement, District Attorney Larry Krasner indicated he would seek criminal charges against any federal agent who, quote, unlawfully assaults and kidnaps people in Philadelphia.
adam crigler
Oh, well then we're good.
Because Obama made that law that lets him do exactly that.
tim pool
And we can complain about that law.
But here's the issue.
Even outside of the NDAA's indefinite detention provision, a federal agent has the right to arrest someone when they have jurisdiction.
If someone attacks a federal courthouse, the feds can make the arrest.
In Portland, they're calling it kidnapping because a guy got detained for questioning.
adam crigler
For 90 minutes, and that was released.
tim pool
They have a right to do that.
adam crigler
Agreed.
tim pool
They have a right to do this.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Now, I'm not a fan.
adam crigler
Well, they're changing all the rules for themselves.
tim pool
But, listen.
When a cop, look, cops can detain you in general, my understanding is like 45 minutes.
So we can argue that, you know, whatever.
It was too long!
They say undisclosed location.
What are you talking about?
They brought him to the courthouse.
It's their jurisdiction.
They brought him in the courthouse.
The dude even said they brought him in the courthouse.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
If they're gonna call that kidnapping, then what do you think he's saying right here, this district attorney?
He's saying he's gonna seek criminal charges to any of these federal law enforcement that try to actually stop the far left.
I am telling you, when you have Far left insurgents breaching the doors of a courthouse.
And the state of Oregon says, we're suing you to force you to leave.
If they retreat, the far left burns the building down, destroys documents.
A bunch of criminals will get released because their court cases will be dropped because administrative error and all this other crazy nonsense.
adam crigler
And not to mention all the evidence that was in the Portland police station that was burnt down.
Also, also is gone.
unidentified
Yep.
adam crigler
So it is already kind of hard of what they want to do.
They're setting it up already.
tim pool
So in Portland.
It's not direct support.
It's indirect support.
These people are not being indicted.
They're not being charged.
They're not being arrested.
And if the feds try, what happens?
Philly says they'll arrest you.
So what is it?
What do you call that?
I'm sorry, man.
That's state sponsorship of domestic terror.
adam crigler
I agree.
tim pool
When you have far leftists who will... No, we haven't seen anything in Philly.
unidentified
Okay?
tim pool
As far as I know, no one's attacking a federal courthouse.
So I'm just saying we're getting dangerously close to this position.
In Oregon, they're suing the government in defense of the insurrectionists.
That's indirect support, man.
adam crigler
Definitely it is.
tim pool
They've pulled the police back.
They're letting them do their thing.
Thousands of people have showed up.
And there you go.
A lot of people keep saying this.
I've got to do this.
I know I've done this.
This is the third time today.
If you watch all my content, you're probably like, Tim, I heard this.
But for a lot of people who don't know the context, I've got to show this article from Bellingcat, and I've got to read you this paragraph.
The edge of all-out war.
On July 4th, Portland's 39th consecutive night of protests, more than a thousand people assembled in front of the Justice Center and Federal Courthouse downtown.
They began launching dozens of commercial-grade fireworks into the concrete facades of both buildings, prompting a response from the police and federal agents inside both buildings.
What followed resembled nothing so much as a medieval siege.
He goes on to mention that the police were firing through murder holes, which is a funny way to describe holes, at the rioters.
The whole situation prompted the first major federal response to Portland's nightly protests.
It started with the media.
I highlight that because they keep trying to claim the Fed started this.
As you can see here, at least from Bellingcat's reporting, not the case.
Portland police were involved in these riots and enforcement and eventually gave up.
There was a rioter who was arrested for arson.
Charges dropped.
So when people try and claim that Trump's occupying these places, no, Trump responded to the violence.
adam crigler
Yep.
So now he's deploying- And protecting the federal buildings, nothing else.
People keep this, this whole narrative of they're like running through the streets, just snatching people up.
It's like, okay, well, I know one story, one time where they did that.
That they snatched one person up, and then I read the story, and they released him 90 minutes later.
tim pool
There are two videos.
adam crigler
That's it.
Two videos.
tim pool
Two videos that I've seen of protesters being detained.
And they're like, with no records.
It's like, well, they weren't arrested.
Why would there be records?
They didn't charge them.
They questioned them.
And they're allowed to do it, whether you like it or not.
These are the rules everyone's playing by.
But people keep trying to claim that Trump is doing this, but now Trump is deploying
federal agents to some other cities. I think Chicago right now, 150. It makes sense.
Because we've already seen the riots spread across the country in response to George Floyd. This is
something totally different now. With the actions in Portland, a couple thousand people ended up
And then everyone's like, Trump sure regrets firing tear gas at moms now that all these people are here.
No, I'm sure he doesn't.
They're going to enforce the law.
Trump's not giving them a play-by-play.
He's probably like, take care of it to Secretary Wolf.
But when these videos go viral, the likelihood that people in other cities start going to federal courthouses to vandalize and attack goes up exponentially.
So Trump says we better send them out now before people start doing this.
And it makes sense.
If feds are going inside their own courthouses, then how could you blame him for that?
That's insane.
They want to assert the federal government has no authority in their states.
Now, hey man, I like the idea of curtailing the excessive federal government power, but this is a bit extreme, don't you think?
Federal courthouses exist for a reason.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Well, we're getting dangerously close, if not already moving beyond the Battle of Fort Sumter.
I bring you now to Wikipedia.
A very simple, short explanation of the Battle of Fort Sumter.
This is just talking about, you know, the Civil War.
They say on March 4th, 1861, Abraham Lincoln was sworn in as president.
In his inaugural address, he argued that the Constitution was a more perfect union than the earlier Articles of Confederation.
Yada yada, he talked about all this great stuff.
Let's talk about Fort Sumter specifically.
and offered to pay for federal properties and entered into a peace treaty with the U.S.
This is after the, I believe, seven states seceded.
I don't want to read through the whole thing though.
But seven states, whatever.
Let's talk about Fort Sumter specifically.
I'm not here to do a Civil War history lesson, just this particular point.
They say Fort Sumter is located in the middle of the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina.
Its garrison had recently moved there to avoid incidents with local militias in the streets of the city.
Lincoln told its commander, Major Anderson, to hold on until fired upon.
Confederate President Jefferson Davis ordered the surrender of the fort.
Anderson gave a conditional reply that the Confederate government rejected, and Davis ordered General P.G.T.
Beauregard to attack the fort before a relief expedition could arrive.
He bombarded Fort Sumter on April 12th through 13th, forcing its capitulation.
The attack on Fort Sumter rallied the North to the defense of American nationalism.
Interesting.
Historian Alan Nevins underscored the significance of the event.
The thunderclap of Sumter produced a startling crystallization of Northern sentiment.
Anger swept the land. From every side came news of mass meetings, speeches, resolutions,
tenders of business support, the muster of companies and regiments,
the determined action of governors and legislature. Union leaders incorrectly assumed that only a
minority of Southerners were in favor of secession and that there were large numbers of Southern
Unionists that could be counted on.
Had Northerners realized that most Southerners favored secession, they might have hesitated at attempting the enormous task of conquering a united self.
Lincoln called on all the states to send forces to recapture the fort and other federal properties.
The scale of the rebellion appeared to be small, so he called for only 75,000 volunteers for 90 days.
The governor of Massachusetts had state regiments on trains headed south the next day.
In western Missouri, local secessionists seized Liberty Arsenal.
On May 3, 1861, Lincoln called for an additional 42,000 volunteers for a period of three years.
Four states in the middle of the Upper South had repeatedly rejected Confederate overtures.
But now, Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas, and North Carolina refused to send forces against their neighbors, declared their secession, and joined the Confederacy.
To reward Virginia, the Confederate capital was moved to Richmond.
A lot of people don't know this, that the original secession wasn't the entirety of the Confederacy.
It was only after Lincoln was like, I'm taking Fort Sumter against their will, that everyone else was like, dude, this is nuts.
adam crigler
I didn't know that.
tim pool
Yeah, there it is right there.
Wikipedia.
Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas, North Carolina.
We're like, we're not going to do this.
We're out.
We're joining them because this is getting nuts.
I mean, from a practical standpoint, their argument was based on, you know, you can't come into our state when we've seceded from the Union and then take this fort.
adam crigler
Sounds familiar.
tim pool
Well, the thing about the...
Look, yeah, so right now, Trump is saying the union, whatever we end up calling it,
has a right to enforce the laws of the United States of America.
We are a united country.
For these individual states to be saying no, I don't know what it's going to look like.
It's not going to look like the North versus the South.
But what happens when Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Oregon, Washington, California form a coalition?
What happens when they form the National Popular Vote Coalition?
A bunch of states that are all left-leaning that demand the vote goes to the popular vote winner.
What happens if come November, Trump wins a narrow electoral college victory somehow, Joe Biden wins the popular vote, and the coalition of states in the popular vote side reject federal authority outright and say, buh-bye.
And then Trump says, we coming in, we're going to shut you down.
unidentified
I don't know.
adam crigler
It sounds viable though.
It sounds like that could happen.
tim pool
Maybe, maybe not.
I don't know.
But what I will point out, there's a few interesting things.
In this article, when they mention Alan Nevins, the historian, he talks about anger sweeping the land.
From every side came news of mass meetings, speeches, resolutions, tenders of business support, the muster of companies and regiments, the determined action of governors and legislatures.
Except all that is happening for the left, not the right.
The right is doing nothing.
Listen, right now, It's the federal government fighting civilians and state governments?
adam crigler
No, I keep saying this.
It's like the people on the right, they've got lives.
They're working on their properties.
They're doing jobs.
tim pool
Sure, but at a certain point, man.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Yeah, okay, but we can't discount that whole majority of Americans that aren't standing out in Portland.
They had 2,000 people.
Okay, 2,000 people that are out there.
tim pool
Someone made a meme photo of the culture war belligerents, and it was all of the brands and government agencies of the left.
The right had nothing.
How many companies have overtly come out and said no to intersectionalism?
adam crigler
Red Bull?
Red Bull, yeah.
tim pool
There you go.
adam crigler
But it's the start.
I mean, Goya.
That's true.
Well, there's a shift that's happening right now where people are like, you know what?
We have had enough.
We are over this.
We are realizing this.
Maybe they're watching you.
Maybe they're hearing you say enough is enough.
We're seeing it.
I'm certainly seeing it.
More and more people are starting to stand up and be like, this is ridiculous.
Defend the police.
We gotta stand up.
tim pool
I tweeted that somebody I met at a Black Lives Matter protest in 2014 is now 100% Trump-trained, posting memes, posting all this Trump Jr.
stuff.
And when I tweeted about it, the left just refuses to accept it.
adam crigler
Right, of course.
tim pool
That could be their downfall.
And that's the other point I want to bring up right here.
They say that had Northerners realized that most Southerners had favored secession, they might have hesitated at attempting the enormous task of conquering the United South.
It could be that these far leftists Had they known just how large the silent majority was, they would have been reticent to actually try and stage this kind of insurrection against a united anti-SJW front.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But maybe not.
I mean, the North won in that regard, you know?
The Democrats lost last time.
Maybe they'll lose again, you know?
Those perennial losers.
The Republicans will keep winning all the civil conflict.
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean, it's not even just Republicans.
I mean, I was talking to a friend of mine today and he was like talking about the Democrats and he was saying, we, we, as in like him and the Democrats.
And I'm like, what do you think that I'm a Republican now just because I'm voting Trump?
Like, it's like, I don't agree with all the things that they're talking about.
I don't agree with all the things that Democrats are talking about.
There is such thing as being in the middle and looking at both sides.
Critically, thinking about it, talking about what each side is doing, and if I'm going to choose between Biden and Trump, I'm absolutely going to vote Trump.
Period.
tim pool
Take a look at this article.
adam crigler
Democrats are replacing Republicans as the preferred party of the very wealthy.
tim pool
So when your friend, this is from June 3rd, 2016.
I wonder why Trump won.
So when your friend says, we, referring to the Democrats, what does he think they're doing for him?
adam crigler
I asked him that.
We had a long conversation.
I kept saying, what is it about my politics that you don't agree with?
Because I'm pretty sure we agree with a lot of things.
It's funny, we had an hour long conversation.
Every single thing I was talking about, he was like, yeah.
Every single thing he was talking about, I was like, yeah.
It turns out we actually agreed on most things.
It turns out he didn't know a lot of the things that Trump was doing.
tim pool
Exactly.
Is it going to turn out that he's not paying attention?
adam crigler
Well, most people aren't.
I can only really speak for myself.
I had no idea.
I had no idea, but now I have very much a clue of what's going on.
tim pool
It's crazier than ever, man.
adam crigler
I agree.
tim pool
It is.
adam crigler
I agree.
tim pool
As time goes on and the sheer desperation of the Democratic Party, you know, just become it becomes more and more visible.
Put it that way.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
And now with like there's just they demanded mail-in voting and now mail-in voting is broken.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Why?
adam crigler
Because they need to pull all the stops to get him out of office.
tim pool
They would rather destroy this country than... Yeah, absolutely.
adam crigler
They can't have him continue doing what he's doing because he wants to make America strong and bring manufacturing back and make it so that people can't go overseas to just make crazy profit and have all the people buying products and that money is leaving the country instead of staying in the country.
tim pool
Have they been right about anything?
adam crigler
No, not that I know of.
tim pool
Russiagate?
Wrong.
adam crigler
Someone tell me something that they've been right on.
I'll happily check it out.
tim pool
To be fair, I think in the sense we're talking, there's going to be small things they probably got right.
adam crigler
Sure, yeah.
I can't name anything offhand.
tim pool
In terms of all these big major stories, we can say Russiagate was a huge waste of everybody's time.
Just dramatically wrong for three plus years.
adam crigler
Well, it fueled the whole Orange Man bad thing.
But they've been using it as a fuel to like... They got me, dude.
I'll be honest.
I didn't like him.
But then I looked in and I had to question myself, like, why don't I like him?
I'm watching his speeches.
I'm hearing what he's saying.
Now I'm looking at his policies based on what he's telling me.
Then I'm looking at the media and hearing what they're saying based on what he's saying.
And none of it makes any sense.
The one thing that does make sense to me are the policies he's putting forward.
And I'm like, I can get behind all that.
tim pool
You know what, man?
If you try to force me to do something, I'll do the opposite.
adam crigler
I don't like being forced to do anything.
I agree with you completely.
tim pool
I don't know if obstinance is the right word, but it's kind of like if somebody came up to me and said, I demand you do this or else, I'd be like, I'm going to do the exact opposite.
I would rather go down in flames jamming you up than living on my knees helping you do anything.
adam crigler
I'm curious.
How would you feel if Joe Biden said to you, Look fat?
If you don't know if you're voting for me, you aren't Korean.
How would that make you feel?
Just curious.
tim pool
Not good.
I get it, yeah.
No, I'd cuss him out.
adam crigler
Me too.
tim pool
I'd tell him to go shove it.
adam crigler
And you know what?
Props to that guy that Charlemagne was doing that show with him.
Props for him keeping his cool because, man, that would piss me off.
tim pool
Dude, and his follow-up to that was insanely racist.
He said that Charlemagne was being a wise guy, and I was like, excuse me?
The dude asked you a legitimate question?
adam crigler
Right, exactly.
tim pool
He said, what are you gonna do for my community?
Then when you said that stupid line about you ain't black, Charlemagne the God was like, no, no, I'm asking you a real question, man.
You want the votes?
Then he has the nerve to go on another show and goes like, well, you know, he was being a wise guy, so... It's terrible.
You know, I don't care about this guy.
This guy...
is a lunatic who doesn't, he can't think or talk straight and they don't care and they know it.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
They're just jamming and shaking and damaging everything.
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean they clearly don't care about those communities at all.
tim pool
This is why I said, this is why I asked, have they been right about anything? Russiagate
cost us years and Trump still managed to make a good economy.
unidentified
That's true.
tim pool
Cost us years, waste of money, just fake news non-stop for years making everyone go nuts.
UkraineGate was fake, the whistleblower thing was fake.
It turns out now, you know, the testimony of the Russiagate stuff's being released.
These guys were lying the entire time.
Then they do impeachment, wasting everybody's time.
The Democrats very early on were completely wrong about COVID.
Trump was correct early on, and then they both deserve some credit for flubs.
Donald Trump wasn't fast enough on certain issues.
That's fine.
I think we can say nobody wins that one, but to act like they did a good job is insane.
adam crigler
And to act like that Trump didn't want the best for the American people.
His own grandfather died to the last pandemic.
Go ahead.
Trump is so dumb.
He voted by mail.
tim pool
Smollett. Wrong, fake. Covington story. Wrong, fake. Then they demanded mail-in voting. And
when Trump said it's going to be bad and the Republicans were like, we're not ready for
this, they went, Trump is so dumb. He voted by mail. Mail-in voting has been around forever.
And you actually listen to these people and they'll say something very simple to you.
Ah yes, you are correct.
Mail-in voting has been around forever.
But mass mail-in voting is something we don't do.
And we are not prepared for.
And now we're getting from the New York Times, story after story, 65,000 plus votes are not counted because of postal service errors.
California just didn't count 100,000.
And in many places, it's young voters and marginalized communities that don't know how
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
to vote who are getting disqualified because there's no one there to help them.
And that's what the Democrats wanted.
So they have been making a mess of everything nonstop.
adam crigler
Yep.
Blaming it on Trump.
tim pool
You know what, you know what, man?
Okay, I won't attribute malice that which can be explained by incompetence.
adam crigler
That means we've got the three stooges for the Democrats running around going... I mean, there's only so long that that saying goes before you go, okay, it's malice now.
Okay, you know what?
That's enough incompetence.
It's malice.
There has to be a line that you're like, you know what?
We finally crossed it.
Clearly something's going on that shouldn't be going on.
Period.
tim pool
You know what I hear a lot?
Yeah, but I hear the same thing about Trump.
Like, how many mistakes has he made, like COVID.
Ah, COVID!
You bring up COVID, good sir!
Well, I have brought receipts.
I would like to bring you back to the article from the Philly Billy Pen, where it says, Philly rebuffs Trump's threat to Senate and Feds.
I want to highlight this key provision.
That the White House seeks to impose federal involvement in this way after months of abrogating its responsibility to lead a federal response to COVID is both ironic and offensive, Kenney said in a statement.
unidentified
Harumph, how dare the president fail to lead this country.
tim pool
Let me show you NPR.
Fact check, Trump doesn't have the authority to order states to reopen.
Whoa, whoa, wait, wait, wait, hold on, hold on.
adam crigler
I'm so sick of this.
tim pool
Hold on.
adam crigler
Drop it, dude.
tim pool
What?
adam crigler
Go ahead.
Drop it in.
tim pool
Drop it?
adam crigler
No, no, no, no.
Don't drop the subject.
Drop the bomb.
Drop the hammer you're about to do.
I'm rooting you on.
Go for it.
tim pool
When Trump said, the buck stops with me, I have the authority, every state said, nope.
You don't, and we can do what we want.
And Trump said, no, you need the president's authority, and they said, no.
And Trump said, when you're the president, your authority is total.
What did he say?
He said, the authority is total, and they said, no it's not.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
So Trump issued guidelines.
Here's what the states should do.
And they call that abrogating.
Donald Trump doesn't have the authority to go to New York and tell Cuomo what to do.
He has jurisdiction over federal matters, meaning when someone crosses state lines.
Perhaps.
I don't even know if he can act border controls between states.
I don't know if he has authority to do that.
Maybe.
adam crigler
I don't think so.
tim pool
He can protect federal buildings.
He can deal with matters of federal law.
But the states control themselves.
adam crigler
Yep, they do.
tim pool
So this is what you get.
April 14th, Trump doesn't have the authority to order states to reopen.
Now, I know they're specifically talking about reopening, but let me just say, if Trump doesn't have the authority to tell them to reopen, isn't it fair to say he doesn't have the authority to tell them to do anything?
adam crigler
That's what they're claiming now, though.
tim pool
Now they're saying he should have led the coalition, but they didn't want to.
adam crigler
Ah, the hypocrisy is real in the Democrats.
tim pool
Yep.
So, you know what, man?
I've been dealing with this for years.
Where it started off very much as, look, in the early years of Trump, I think he did some bad things.
Notably hiring John Bolton.
And everybody knew that was a mistake.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
And I have no problem criticizing him.
I mean, yeah, the dude said we were going to be celebrating in Tehran.
What is that?
He's literally saying we're going to invade Iran.
adam crigler
It's insane.
It's crazy.
tim pool
And Trump had to go and hire these people, you know, for whatever reason.
I don't know why he did it.
I don't know what's going on in the administration.
But over the past year or so, it's been getting somewhat better.
Notably, I'll mention, you know, calling out China and more specifically Afghanistan.
So at this point, I'm just like, okay, man, whatever.
I'll take what I can get.
But early on, I started off very much as this trope of the liberal who's like, stop making me defend Trump.
adam crigler
I hear that a lot.
tim pool
But every time the media would lie, I'd be like, no, no, no, come on.
He's bad, but he's not that bad.
Now it's just, they've become so insane and desperate.
We have moved well beyond stop making me defend Trump.
And it's at the point where I'm saying, stop lying, you duplicitous snake.
You are lying about everything.
It's not even about Trump anymore.
It's about the economy.
Whenever the economy does well, it's like, well, actually, the economy's bad.
Stock market does well?
Well, the stock market doesn't matter.
Stock market tanks?
Look at the stock market!
Now my favorite is, where are all the libertarians to defend against, you know, the stormtroopers marching through Portland, man?
unidentified
I thought you wanted gun rights to go up against an oppressive state.
tim pool
It's like, okay, hold on.
Maybe there's no oppressive state.
adam crigler
Maybe there's no oppressive... They can't believe that, though.
That goes against their whole system.
Their whole fight would be null and void.
tim pool
So this is what I'm saying, man, look.
Whenever I have the conversation where someone says, I know, you know, like earlier Ian was saying, you know, I'm seeing people are saying that, you know, the federal agents are going out there and attacking protesters, and then fights are breaking out, and that other people are saying the protesters are attacking the building, it's like straight up the protesters are attacking the building.
I just read the Bellingcat segment where it said, after 39 days, the first federal response.
So we're sitting here complaining, why won't Trump do anything for 39 days?
Then he finally does, and now they're all crying.
adam crigler
And the only thing he does is protect the federal land that they are protecting.
tim pool
Well, they did go out of the building in March of the Streets, the Feds.
But, I mean, if they're laying siege to this building with commercial-grade fireworks, mortars, those are lethal.
adam crigler
Yeah, they're going out to purge the people that are actually attacking, sieging.
tim pool
Precision of words.
unidentified
Arrest.
tim pool
You said purge.
adam crigler
Oh, purge the streets.
Well, yeah, okay, sure, whatever.
Remove them from the area because they were straight up attacking the court building.
tim pool
Look, I've thought about this over the past several years as I've talked more and more about civil war.
I did a segment earlier today on my main channel where I pulled up a bunch of stories where over the past year, longer, they've been saying civil war, civil war, civil war, non-stop.
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming.
I mean, look, we're at a point where the states are openly defying the feds and rejecting their authority.
But I often wondered to myself, how hard would it be to be, like, a moderate fence-sitter when a civil war breaks out?
And you don't know unless it happens, right?
adam crigler
Well, I gotta say, though, you just said, you know, the Fed's coming in, or they're denying the Fed's coming in.
It's worse than that.
They're letting their own cities burn.
They are openly letting these people, they're arresting them, letting them out.
I don't even know why they're arresting them.
Why do they even arrest them?
tim pool
But now that they're focused on the Feds, They don't care.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But look, this is the point I was going to make.
I'm thinking to myself, like, if you want to be objective and report on what's happening, how hard would that be in a civil war?
That's what I've been thinking about in the past several years.
Would it come to a point where violence breaks out and I can be like, this group and this group are doing these things?
The answer is, it's impossible.
There is no word to describe neutrally For both sides, what this group of people in Portland is, are, whatever.
There's no one word.
And I've thought about it as, you know, when I try to record, I usually just press record and start talking.
But every so often, I'll say something like, protesters.
Oh, gotta stop there.
They're not.
adam crigler
Right, they're not.
tim pool
Insurrectionists?
adam crigler
Well, they're protesters when the cameras are on and the moms are out and they are getting their, you know, singing their Black Lives Matter songs.
And that's what people were sending me.
Like, well, look, how can you defend the feds?
Like, look, they're peaceful.
There's 2,000 of these people all singing together.
tim pool
Show the video of the moms trying to break the door down.
adam crigler
I sent them that way, and they're like, no, no, no, I don't need to see any of that.
tim pool
So the point I'm making is, there is no neutrality right now, none whatsoever.
Right now you have a group of people, sure we can call them that, and they're attacking a courthouse.
As soon as you say that, people are gonna be like, you're lying, they're peaceful, you're lying, they're protesters.
What do you call them?
Insurrectionists or protesters?
Rioters or demonstrators?
Whichever one you choose, Shows which tribe you are because of your worldview, your perspective on who they are and what they're doing.
adam crigler
I have a feeling most people will look at them as rioters.
tim pool
It depends on what news they get.
If you show them the video, I'm sure at this point... That's what I'm saying, I don't know if it matters anymore.
You send a video of somebody bashing a door, the response is gonna be?
adam crigler
Oh, well, where was that?
tim pool
Well, no, of course they're fighting back!
The unmarked secret police were snatching people up!
adam crigler
Oh.
unidentified
Of course.
tim pool
That's what they'll say.
There's no beginning, middle, or end anymore.
It's just a mess of chaos.
adam crigler
It's instantly justified in their heads.
Like, yeah, yeah, sure, that makes sense.
They're just fighting the system.
tim pool
It's tribes now, man.
And when it comes to tribalism, there is no reason anymore.
It's join or die.
That's all it is.
So now that the state of... Look, in Oregon, you have Mayor Ted Wheeler, and he's told the feds to get out.
They were just chanting the other night, F. Ted Wheeler.
There's another mayor who's going to be running in November, and this mayor has openly said that she is Antifa.
adam crigler
Straight up?
tim pool
Straight up.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Trump has said Antifa is a terrorist organization.
So what happens when the mayor of this town joins the faction that is attacking the federal building that Trump has declared to be a terrorist organization?
adam crigler
Civil War?
Yeah, I guess.
That's insane.
It's insanity.
tim pool
It's not the same thing as Fort Sumter.
But I have to wonder if the Civil War was like a catalyst for unifying American nationalism, like they said.
It's a line from the movie National Treasure.
Which is itself a national treasure.
Nicolas Cage, the man.
adam crigler
I will agree.
tim pool
He says, before the Civil War, they said the United States are.
After the Civil War, they said the United States is.
Because the United States was viewed as a single nation.
Right.
I wonder if we're looking at the unzipping now.
So we've had our bell curve, we're coming off the end of this ride.
adam crigler
Yeah, someone said to me today that they're from another country.
They said, hey, you know, just looking from another perspective, I wonder if we're going to start calling it just the states of America.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Instead of the United States of America.
tim pool
The federal government collapses, the states short their own borders and everything.
Yeah, maybe.
So, I mean, it'll be insanity for a decade of just chaos, border checkpoints being set up, you know, desperate, you know, Well, so here's what I'm saying.
If Oregon has rejected the authority of the federal government, if, you know, Chicago is now saying the same thing, Philadelphia is saying the same thing, it's not necessarily at the state level, but Oregon is at the state level.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Let me show you something else.
Let me see if I can.
Where do I have this?
Do I have this pulled up?
There we go.
I got it pulled up.
Greater Idaho.
Perhaps a new state.
adam crigler
I could still see every single time I see Idaho, I just see Joe Biden sniffing.
See the top right?
I can't unsee that.
Once you see it, it's like, yep, he's sniffing Idaho.
tim pool
Greater Idaho would absorb the more conservative areas.
And this won't change our promise.
adam crigler
Where's that from?
What is that from?
tim pool
This is OPB, I think?
Yeah, opb.org.
adam crigler
No, the map itself.
Is that the way it used to be?
Or is that just a suggestion?
tim pool
It's from Move Oregon's Border for a Greater Idaho organization.
adam crigler
Oh, wow.
Okay.
tim pool
There's also calls for the state of Jefferson, which would be Northern California and Southern Oregon.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
Yeah.
So, this has been talked about, that the more conservative areas would band together.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But I'm not sure that would actually solve any of the problems happening right now.
The problems are that, you know, the tracks of this country, you know, this country's tracks have split so far, they're unrecognizable at this point, and all that matters is you bow to the tribe.
Is the orange man good or bad?
Pick one.
And if you try and be like, oh, come on, chill, you must be on the other side.
End of story.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
How can there be an election?
If everybody's, if they're like, Trump is cheating.
adam crigler
And they truly believe that he is.
tim pool
And Obama's cheating.
adam crigler
And then I'm on the other side thinking that they're cheating.
So it's like I can see both sides.
Everyone thinks that they're just pointing fingers at each other like, you're a cheater.
No, you're the cheater.
Everybody's cheating.
So how do we move forward then as a United States?
tim pool
I don't think it matters.
I don't think it matters.
I don't think it matters who wins or loses.
If Trump loses, in my opinion, based on everything I've read and the news I've tracked and I've been around the world and I think, of course I think I'm right.
Joe Biden is going to pull off a TPP.
He's going to try and rejoin up with China.
They're going to sell off our industry.
They're going to strip the rights of American citizens to international corporations.
We already heard from Jack Dorsey when I was on the Rogan Podcast when he said our rules are for a global community.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Remember he was talking about we serve a global community so our rules are more... The UN has basically denounced hate speech.
They've basically been like, oh, you shouldn't allow hate speech.
What we believe in, liberalism, and I mean that in the true academic sense of the word, not the colloquial, stupid, you know, leftist, like the idea of the consent of the governed, freedom of speech, expression, the right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, are going to be gone.
adam crigler
I agree.
That's why I'm so afraid of people voting for Biden, because they are blinded to the bigger picture.
tim pool
Now think about the other side.
Their one chance to defeat white supremacy.
They view America as a colonial empire of genocide that must be purged.
They believe that science, that time, that schedules are all white supremacy that must be abolished and purged.
adam crigler
Getting into that conversation just proves to me how misguided and... I think all that matters is one thing.
They're just misguided for sure.
tim pool
Misguided.
I see the left as a chaotic, destructive force, and the modern Democrats have essentially given up and given in for power, and the leftists are taking the reins and trying to pull as hard as they can.
They haven't made as many gains as they want.
What's happening in Oregon is a huge advantage for them.
But they can't win anything because they offer up no cohesive structure for anything.
I'll tell you what does happen, though.
When this fight breaks out between those who believe in this country and those who don't, China.
adam crigler
What, they're gonna finally pull the trigger or something?
tim pool
There won't need to be a war if America collapses from within.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
So maybe this is how we avoid Thucydides' trap.
America is done.
And that's why people like Mark Cuban won't speak up about Hong Kong.
Because that's their exit strategy.
America can collapse, the dollar can tank, silver and gold are spiking, stocks are spiking, and he can dump his money into China, and then when the collapse happens, he'll still be rich.
Not him.
I'm calling him out partly because the Ted Cruz thing.
I don't know what it's, you know, if he said anything about China.
Um, I want to be careful about dragging individuals.
I know I'll say no for sure, but how many billionaires are like, my financial interests are in a bunch of different countries.
I'll be rich forever.
adam crigler
Yup.
tim pool
And how many Americans are going to be just left to live in the wastes?
adam crigler
We gotta, we gotta be, uh, we gotta be aware.
We have to talk.
We gotta be, we have to be talking.
We have to be open.
We have to be, you know, explaining, you know, it makes me think of Daryl Davis on a grander scale.
Like he, he went and to his own like threat of his own life.
Like he could have been killed doing what he was doing, but he went out there to talk to these people and show them that, you know, he, there's no, it's not even that complicated.
It's not even that complicated.
tim pool
He was like, I'm gonna go talk to him.
adam crigler
I'm gonna go talk to him.
tim pool
So this is the guy who de-radicalized 200 Klansmen.
Famous blues musician, a black man, who went to a bunch of Klan meetings.
adam crigler
Yep.
Amazing guy.
tim pool
And then what happened when he went to my event in Philly?
adam crigler
They called him a white supremacist.
tim pool
And refused to talk to him.
Right, exactly.
And he had this viral post on Facebook where he was shocked.
How was it that he was able to walk up to Klan members and they were like, what do you have to say?
lydia smith
That scares me.
tim pool
But then when he went to the Antifa, they were like, get out of here, you white supremacist,
F you.
And he was like, I can't believe it.
adam crigler
Or how about the police officer in Seattle, I believe it was, where he's talking and he
was standing there and I guess a younger black person walked up to him and was like, hey,
can I talk to you?
You know, you're obviously, we're saying, like, defund you.
Can you talk to me?
And he's like, I really want to.
I want to talk to you.
But every single time I try to, some white Antifa person comes up, and at that moment, right then, a white Antifa person is like, don't talk to the police!
How dare you talk to the police!
It's like, they can't even have their own voice anymore.
tim pool
It's a cult.
adam crigler
It is a cult.
They're trying to indoctrinate all these people and convince them that You know, racism is real.
tim pool
No, no, it's not even about any of that.
It's kind of like applying a... You have a structure and it's made of wood and you want it to come down.
And so what they're doing is they're taking a corrosive and they're rubbing it on support structures.
And then you sit back and wait and eventually the supports become too weak and the whole thing comes down.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I was in San Bernardino.
There was a protest.
It was far left versus Trump supporters.
And I was just filming.
I walked over to the far left side and there were a bunch of people in black
blocks wearing all black standing there.
And I said, can I, and you guys want to tell me what's going on?
And then all of a sudden an organizer ran up and started chanting.
Just chanting.
I don't, I remember exactly what they were chanting, but they're
just mindlessly chanting.
Mike check, Mike check, Mike.
That's what they do.
If you, as a journalist, try and walk up to a group that doesn't have the ability to violently crush you, like they do, if you're filming, they'll be like, get him, get him, and they'll beat you up for having a camera.
They just chant so that no one can talk to you, like you were mentioning with the cop.
It's not about any real idea.
It's not about making anything.
It's about literally just applying a corrosive That destroys the support structures, the bonds of a functioning society.
And you know what the problem is?
There's no one trying to repair it.
I mean, it's an exaggeration.
There are a few.
There are people like Jordan Peterson.
There are people like Brett Weinstein.
People like us.
adam crigler
I mean, I'm seeing these new politicians that are coming.
Sean Parnell, for example.
tim pool
Matt Gaetz, I think.
adam crigler
Yeah, they're out there.
Someone in Jersey who's running also, that's really awesome.
Got a good platform.
I see this new wave of politicians that are coming out, and that's what we need.
We need this.
You keep saying you think it's too late.
I hear you, Tim.
I hear you, Tim.
tim pool
10% of the CDC is intersectionalist, and they demanded that the federal government declare that racism is a national health crisis.
adam crigler
So the problem is... Articles are coming out right now saying they're flubbing all the numbers, and so it's like...
They can't juggle so many lives, or lies, excuse me.
They can't juggle all these lies before they start dropping them all and being like, oops, you got me lying.
tim pool
I disagree.
Okay.
That's fine.
When it turns out that you have about 10,000 employees at the CDC and 1,200 have signed a document demanding a national health crisis on racism, which makes literally no sense.
adam crigler
Correct.
tim pool
Has nothing to do with the CDC.
You've already got an ideological infection throughout your nation worse than you realize.
It's like seeing one roach on the wall and going, it's just one roach, it's fine, and ignoring it.
And then a year later, you're done.
And you could have done something about it, but the problem was, this was decades ago.
Like you mentioned, that document on whiteness, that was from 1990.
Those ideas.
I'm like, wow, I didn't know any, I was a little kid.
So now we've all grown up.
And surrounding us, as we are all the support structure of American ideals, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, all the amendments, we are surrounded by people who have no logical structures in their brains to actually draw conclusions.
They think time is racist.
It's meaningless.
They think racism is a health crisis that must be declared.
They think climate change is racist.
They have these nonsensical, insane ideas like 2 plus 2 equals 5.
And I'm not exaggerating.
There's a big Twitter thread from these people explaining how math doesn't make sense because it's actually white supremacy.
The argument is that, here's what they say, clearly 2 plus 2 doesn't always equal 4.
That's wrong because 2 apples plus 4 oranges does not, you know, plus 2 oranges does not equal 4 apples.
What they do is they manipulate, misrepresent, and confuse to fracture the bonds of a functioning logical structure.
And all that will lead to is breaking down.
So when 10%, well like, apparently now I'm seeing some talk about filing FOIA requests against the federal government to figure out who's doing this weird intersectionalism.
I was reading something that said that once you reach 10% saturation of an ideology, that's enough for them to take over the whole system.
Especially when you realize that religious people in this country aren't actually devout religious.
I'd be willing to bet that if you took the average Christian and placed them next to the average intersectionalist, the average Christian would be a regular kind of chill American who probably isn't going to preach to you.
adam crigler
Probably.
tim pool
But the intersectionalist will literally punch you in the face if you don't get on your knees for you know racial
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
justice They'll bash you in the face. They'll call you a Nazi. Yep,
so you compare who is truly ideological intersectionalists throughout this country
Overwhelmingly are preaching the gospel of their new well.
I'll call it a cult Yeah.
And they're infecting every layer.
How many corporations have come out against this?
adam crigler
I think it's a religion now.
How many cult members do you need to then register?
tim pool
I don't know, there's really a way.
adam crigler
I'm pretty sure there's an actual number though.
I'm pretty sure they have their new religion and that's what this is.
tim pool
I think the reason it's graduated now to a religion is because they don't have a personality.
It's literally just, it's an ideology that they worship.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That is, it's got, it's got all, yeah, it's, it's, it's a, I don't want to say it's a religion because religions actually are something very, are relatively different historically.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But they're definitely some, they're definitely in the same structure of what a religion is.
adam crigler
You know what their idol is?
tim pool
Non-theistic religion.
adam crigler
You know what their idol is?
tim pool
Golden calf.
adam crigler
You were close.
What?
A golden participation trophy.
unidentified
Ah.
adam crigler
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah, I can see it.
tim pool
I think it should be a golden calf.
I think we should make the golden calf of intersectionalism.
That would be the perfect symbol for them.
Figure out a way to get them to adopt it.
adam crigler
No, I like cows.
They're cool.
tim pool
Yeah, but do you know the references?
adam crigler
Yeah, of course.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah.
Still, I don't want to... Was it a calf?
lydia smith
It was a golden calf.
unidentified
Yeah.
lydia smith
It was ground into powder and they were made to drink it.
tim pool
Oh, that's weird.
lydia smith
Yeah, oh no.
They did not get to keep that idol.
Because they're, you know, Israelites.
tim pool
So, so listen.
I'm not saying necessarily that it's too late to, you know, fix the country.
It's never too late to do anything.
What I'm saying is that it's probably too late to stop what's about to happen.
Widespread violence and destruction.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
And if we don't do it... Well, it's already happening.
adam crigler
There's already widespread panic and destruction.
unidentified
I know.
adam crigler
54 days?
It's happening right now.
tim pool
Come on, man.
We're talking about 34 hours of cannon fire.
Now that's impressive, but it's still a day and a half.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
How about 54 days?
54 nights, to be fair.
adam crigler
Right, it's the nights when they actually start rioting.
tim pool
Of riots.
We'll just call it a riot.
Think about it historically.
When they say for 54 nights, longer than that now, it's gonna go on for what, till November?
Until Trump finally retreats and they take the federal building?
Think about what history would say if Trump retreats.
They would say, for 73 days, insurrectionists besieged a federal building until finally the federal authorities under President Trump retreated.
They took the building and destroyed it.
signaling the capture of federal jurisdiction.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So here's what I think.
The big fear is that as China seeks to displace us as the world superpower,
we, war will break out.
If we're too busy fighting amongst ourselves, there won't be a war.
Or maybe there still could be.
adam crigler
I'm sure that's what they hope for.
tim pool
Yep.
Silver spiked earlier today.
It's really interesting.
I don't know enough about the markets, you know.
It'd be interesting to talk to somebody about precious metals, but gold's been going up.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And that basically, as far as I know, is not a good sign for the dollar.
Who was it recently who said?
lydia smith
Peter Schiff.
tim pool
Peter Schiff said there's going to be like a dollar shortage or crisis or something.
lydia smith
Yeah.
Well, he was talking about it at the same time you were.
You were like, I think the dollar is going to crash.
I think that's the end of the U.S.
economy.
And he was tweeting it as we were talking about it.
I thought it was funny.
tim pool
I think with these coin shortages, a lot of stores have stopped taking cash outright.
It's getting really interesting.
Really, really interesting.
I hope you've all geared up and gotten ready for November.
November 4th is going to be the most interesting day of our lives, I would imagine.
Straight up.
The clock is ticking.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
We're now, oh man, just a little bit over three months.
A little bit over three months?
About three and a half months?
adam crigler
Yeah, they're firing all cylinders, man.
You know what?
Everything is happening right now.
tim pool
I'm gonna enjoy my last Halloween.
It's gonna be fun.
adam crigler
That's depressing, dude.
unidentified
What?
adam crigler
You can be a little depressing sometimes.
tim pool
The last Halloween?
adam crigler
Yeah, just in general, you can be a little depressing.
Why?
What'd you just say?
tim pool
I'm gonna enjoy my last Halloween?
adam crigler
Yeah, that's depressing, dude.
tim pool
Well, hey man.
adam crigler
I'll tell you what- No, no, no, no.
I'm not gonna accept that.
Sorry.
No.
I'm telling you, you're wrong right now.
We're gonna have other Halloweens.
Life's gonna continue on.
These people that are- Everyone's standing up right now, and everyone's ready to fight.
tim pool
I think you take it way too seriously when I say, last Halloween.
adam crigler
I can't take things- It's hard for me to not be serious anymore.
I know I love to joke I love to have a good time, you know But the more I look into this and the more I understand the gravity of what is happening right now All of us should be should be this aware and we should know how serious it is It's hard for me to just switch it from this is really serious civil war people are trying to bring down America and then like crack jokes it's it's it's not easy for me to do that anymore and So I'll say it right back, man.
tim pool
That's depressing.
Okay.
Maybe it is.
If I make a joke about the last Halloween because November 4th is going to be the day of chaos, I'm not literally saying Halloween will never happen again.
adam crigler
Well, I'm just telling you how I feel, man.
tim pool
It's just exaggeration about the severity of what's to come.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Okay.
And it is.
And you know what, man?
When I look around at this country and the talk of the silent majority, I cross my fingers.
But it's funny how the left has this view of Trump supporters as these, like, the meme is the guy and the rascal with his belly hanging out and he's got two full-auto guns and nachos in front of him and he says, America.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, I wish.
I wish we had even a handful of those guys who loved America so much they gorged themselves and drove around with guns and a rascal.
It doesn't exist.
You've got a bunch of chill people who want to live their life, work hard, feed their family, do their thing.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
They love and respect this country for what it is, but they are not going out screaming murk at the top of their lungs with full auto guns.
adam crigler
No, they're researching laws, researching how to get into the government and actually make an actual change and not screeching and throwing bombs at a courthouse.
And that's what I'm seeing.
I'm seeing people actually going out and working towards making a difference legally.
And that's the silent majority you're talking about.
tim pool
And that's why they're losing.
Ben Shapiro said that trying to get a poli- I'm going to paraphrase him, so hopefully I'm getting it right, but he said something akin to, trying to win a political victory while they've taken over the cultural institutions is rearranging the chairs on the Titanic.
And I completely agree.
Breitbart said it a decade ago.
He's the one who said it, right?
Politics is downstream from culture.
And so you look at what the left has done consistently.
Barack Obama was a celebrity.
They loved that guy.
Big old charismatic smile on his face.
Well, he enacted the NDAA and indefinite detention provisions and did all these horrible, horrible things.
adam crigler
Yes, he did.
tim pool
And he got away with it because he was part of the dominant cultural institutions.
So now you have Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, and we're lucky to be on these platforms.
adam crigler
You're right.
And I'm glad we were able to be here so I can actually give my views out there.
I mean, just today, just this morning, I woke up and someone tagged me like, yo, Tim's Tim's video about all these leftists going to the right running to MAGA and the Democrats are freaking out was was trending.
in gaming. It's so weird. No it's not. No it's not weird.
Turning in gaming. No I it's not weird because the gaming industry itself has been
infected by SJWs. I'm a gamer I know. Yeah. Many gamers are fed up with
it. They're like Red Bull like for example it's like Red Bull sells sugar
drinks.
Why should it matter what they're but you know, they're yeah, it's like that's all it is It's like gamers want to go to a game and escape So the fact that there are not even allowed to escape in their games means it's not working anymore and this started About seven years ago.
tim pool
So Colgate.
adam crigler
Yeah first battle of the of the cultural civil war Well, it makes sense because they're the younger generation that you're saying.
Politics is downhill from culture?
Well, that culture has been attacked for so long now that they think that they have all the new generation on their side.
Well, that is not true.
It's not.
tim pool
Well, so this is why you're dangerous.
adam crigler
Sure, people have said it to me.
Whatever, I'm not gonna stop talking.
tim pool
I didn't say you should.
adam crigler
Right, I won't.
tim pool
So we were talking about this earlier and I was like, I'll be as flattering as possible.
You've got Adam Kregler, who's male model, pro skateboarding rock star, who all of a sudden now is coming out and being like, go Trump.
But you develop all of these important cultural things.
The idea of like, A pro skateboarding rock star?
That's like what every kid wanted to be 20, 30 years ago, you know?
It was like, you know, being a famous musician and being a pro skater, all these things, right?
And so that's culture.
Conservatives went for the political victory.
But, like Ben Shapiro said, rearranging deck chairs in the Titanic.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So, they won.
Congratulations.
In 2016, they controlled all branches of the government.
They then lost it in 2018.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, we talked about it, though.
They locked them down.
They froze it all.
So they couldn't do anything.
tim pool
But it's because they control the newspapers.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
They control the movies, the TV shows.
adam crigler
And a lot of people are now realizing because of COVID, they don't have jobs.
A lot of people are stuck at home.
They can't go out.
There's no sports.
What are they doing?
They're watching the mainstream media, listening to the president speak, going back and cross-checking themselves now and seeing What are they talking about?
Now instead of having the few people defend him, like, oh, you're gonna make me defend Trump, now everyone's like, oh yeah, okay, you don't have to anymore because I can see for myself.
People are seeing for themselves.
tim pool
When Trump was doing daily press briefings, his approval numbers were higher in the aggregate than they have ever been.
adam crigler
And why do you think he's gonna start doing again?
tim pool
He's gonna start them up again.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
But they're not gonna cover it.
They accuse him of lying and all that stuff.
So anyway, the ultimate point is, Republicans and conservatives need to be fighting on the cultural front.
And they started doing that with memes on the internet.
And then the left, which controls the platforms with which this communication happens, nuked every single one of them.
That's correct.
They were like, purge!
And so, here's what happens with the best example, I believe, is probably The Donald.
There was a study done by, I think it was MIT Review, that found that 4chan and The Donald were the progenitors of the most prolific memes on the internet.
Seriously, just all the jokes, everything you would see, came from 4chan or The Donald.
So what do they do?
They accuse the Donalds of all this wrongdoing, of all this manipulation, and maybe some of it's true, I don't know.
I didn't investigate it, so I'm not gonna pretend like I did.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But they then quarantine the Donald under false pretenses.
They were threatening police, they said.
You think the Blue Lives Matter people were threatening the cops?
adam crigler
Not in the slightest.
tim pool
That's insane.
adam crigler
I agree.
tim pool
And so what a lot of people at the Donald thought was that you get some far leftists who invade, post these things, and then before they can even realize they exist, the Edmunds go, look at this!
You shoulda got rid of it!
Quarantined.
So they created their own website, thedonald.win, which is now probably one of the biggest pro-Trump forums, considering the Donald itself has been banned permanently.
They were gone for four months.
For four months, the Reddit, the Donald, was inactive.
And then the CEO comes out and says, we're banning all these subreddits, including the Donald, because they broke the rules.
But no one had posted for four months.
It was locked down.
Which means they retroactively applied new rules to an old forum.
Which shows there's literally nothing you can do.
They snap their fingers and they nuke you.
Now what's going on?
DDoS attacks against the Donald.win.
They're making it, you can try and pull up the website periodically and it won't work.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
They're just, you can't open it because a denial of service attack is slamming into it.
So they're trying really hard to shut them down.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And now that they can't control them directly because they've created their own website, people are going after them indirectly.
So I'll tell you what, man, I'm surprised we're still lucky enough to be able to speak, but I think it's because we follow the rules.
We're not overly bombastic.
We don't insult, we don't swear, we play it very, very safe, and it makes it very difficult, but they're gonna try, man.
They're gonna start snipping up bits out of context, they're gonna start pulling up your old posts and trying to figure out anything they can get from you that's ever been offensive, whatever.
Find a way to get rid of the things we're talking about, because they have to purge the ideas.
I've been watching Avatar, The Last Airbender, because I just added it to Netflix, and so apparently it's a big thing right now, everybody's watching it.
Netflix is like, got it right there, recommend it.
But there's one episode where a bunch of... For those who aren't familiar with the show, I'll just keep it simple.
There's four elements, and each, you know, nation, you know, has like an element.
I'm very simplifying it.
And so people of the Earth Nation are enslaved.
They can control Earth to fight with.
They're on a ship, and the main characters give them weapons, basically, and they refuse to fight back.
And I was thinking about this because it's a really interesting idea that even when given the power, people who are beaten down and demoralized won't stand up for themselves.
And it's because they need a unifying rallying cry or connecting bond.
If people don't know that the uprising is here, they don't rise up.
So that's why Facebook was so powerful in the Middle East for the Arab Spring.
You give them that one Facebook post that everybody could see, and they were like, there's the unifying point so that we can all rise up and attack.
And then in the show, the one guy stands up and everyone joins him.
So, that's kind of what needs to happen, I suppose.
But so far, it's only happened on the political front.
How you do it on the cultural front, I don't know, because the cultural institutions have been dominated now for, like, several decades.
You know what's really crazy, too, is I think it happened about ten years ago, with the shift from Jon Stewart to the current iteration of cookie-cutter, plastic, robo comedians.
adam crigler
I can see that, yeah.
tim pool
Same formula.
It's current year, little Timothy!
The same formulaic, nonsensical non-humor and lies from people like John Oliver.
adam crigler
I tried watching him recently, actually.
tim pool
It's ridiculous.
adam crigler
And I used to think it was funny.
And I was cringing the whole time because I knew how inaccurate the stories...
It's like, if you just watch the mainstream media, he's funny,
because then you think the stories he's reporting are real.
But the fact is, he just makes fun of the fake stories.
tim pool
Well, he lies himself.
adam crigler
I mean, I haven't...
I'm not going to go cross-reference all of his old episodes.
tim pool
I'll be fair, he's wrong often.
adam crigler
Yeah, okay.
tim pool
But then you look at Samantha Bee, and you look at Trevor Noah.
adam crigler
She's horrendous.
tim pool
You look at Jim Jefferies, and the whole thing they do is this cookie-cutter formulaic fake comedy.
I call it fake comedy because it's not real jokes.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
It's like, it's like the Big Bang Theory.
It's like, they took The Daily Show, which was funny and organic.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And they took the structure of the Big Bang Theory, non-humor, just placed in front of you, and made a Big Bang Theory version of news comedy.
adam crigler
Explain the Big Bang Theory to me, because I've never seen that show.
tim pool
So Big Bang Theory is the perfect example of, if you take out the laugh tracks, literally nothing happens.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
So it'll be like, it's one of those shows where, you know, the guy will walk in and go, Those are crazy headphones!
And then they just pause for about three seconds and nothing happens.
And the other guy goes like, yes they are.
And then he pauses for about three seconds and nothing happens.
adam crigler
And that's the show?
tim pool
But they add a laugh track.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And so the show is very popular because it's plastic, robotic nonsense.
So like, you can actually go on YouTube and watch Big Bang Theory with no laugh track.
And you're like, and friends with no laugh track, seriously, it's all the same thing.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
So, they took someone like Jon Stewart, who had genuine opinions, and did a show, it was funny, and, like, he was fair to Project Veritas when Veritas did the expose, and he was even like, journalists, where are you?
unidentified
This guy, with the, you know, camera, did a bigger story than you did?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It's really amazing.
Today, like, Project Veritas is evil.
They lie nonstop about who they are and what they do.
adam crigler
Not only that, if you are a true journalist and you're exposing actual things, you're going to get taken out or defamed or cancelled or whatever, however you want to put it, you know, and it's happening.
tim pool
Like they do to James O'Keefe.
The way I see Project Veritas is they do undercover reporting.
I personally think they're biased towards the right, but that doesn't matter.
Their bias is less relevant than, are they telling the truth and uncovering real information?
The answer is yes, they are.
If you have a problem with that, then do journalism and uncover the other side, whatever.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
I'm not gonna get mad at someone for doing journalism because the stories they focus on tend to benefit a political faction, if that's your view of things.
I do think that even that narrative is a little skewed because when he goes after Google and the mainstream press, to assume those are left-wing institutions is kind of a funny thing to admit.
But I do think he's a conservative, for sure.
They try and destroy his credibility, and they try and claim he's not a real journalist.
They do the same thing to Andy Ngo.
But these people control the cultural institutions.
It's funny, I was having this conversation with someone a while ago, and they always default to the same thing.
When you say that the left has all the power, they go, Trump is the president!
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Because they don't understand that politics is downstream from culture.
adam crigler
Yeah, someone was trying to argue with me the other day about how they were like, that, you know, that whole, the attack ad, this, this is Trump, or this is Biden, this will be Biden's America.
And they posted it and they were like, how can they say this?
Like, it's Trump's America right now.
He's the president.
And I'm just like, God, do you realize what's happening?
Do you understand that it is the Democrats' cities that this is happening in?
You know, and just try to have this conversation.
And by the end of it, it was actually fairly civil, which I was grateful for.
But at the end, this person just said, well, it doesn't matter because he is the president, period.
tim pool
People think the President can do way more than they can.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's what I keep asking.
You can't pick and choose whether he's this authoritarian figure, but then he has no power.
Whichever battle you're having, you switch per day because they keep switching.
Which is it?
Make up your mind.
tim pool
I did a tweet on this once.
I got sick of all these stories at the same time.
And I can't remember exactly everything I said, but I'm like, he's a fascist who won't exercise his authority over states.
He's a mastermind playing 4D chess, but fumbling and bumbling and losing.
He's secretly winning with his secret... All of these news stories, you have no idea what's happening.
And I wonder if that's part of it, too.
The point is to keep everyone confused and spun around in circles.
So all you can really do is just go vote.
I will say though, I watched, I've been, I watched a couple of the videos from Don't, I think it's Don't Walk Run Productions.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Andrew's the, uh, Andrew, the senior political correspondent going over all the polls and breaking down why they don't make sense.
And it's actually really funny when he goes through as like, you know, Pew says that Joe Biden is up by like 11 points.
And he's like, let's break down what their, how their polling works.
And then he shows their polling methodology and it makes no sense.
It's like a weighted poll and it goes through this ridiculous, so you have to subtract two people here and then add this there, and he's like, I don't get it either.
adam crigler
I'm going to respond to something you just said right in the middle of that and you just kind of blew right over it.
You said the only thing you can really do is go vote.
tim pool
Yes.
adam crigler
Period.
Yep.
What do you think the people on the right and the majority of America are waiting to do?
They're not going to riot.
I just want to say that, like, that's what they're doing.
tim pool
They're waiting to go vote.
adam crigler
America is not the Titanic.
tim pool
Let me contextualize that.
adam crigler
Go ahead.
tim pool
What I'm saying is, when I say the only thing you can go do and vote, it's in the context of the polls.
Don't sit there and think Joe Biden's going to win or Trump's going to win.
Just go and vote.
I'm not saying it's the only... Oh, they are.
I'm not saying quite literally in the grand scheme of things, the only thing you can do, because I think there's a lot more you should be doing and not just sitting around and waiting to go vote.
What I'm saying is, To clear the context.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
If you're going to look at all the polls every day, if you're going to track all the news and say, who's winning today?
It's a waste of your time.
Because I can easily pull up a poll right now that says Donald Trump is actually winning.
I can easily argue.
And it's amazing to me.
I talked about this before when David Pakman did a video that said Donald Trump's disapproval is the all time high.
And I saw that and I thought to myself, why isn't it?
Why won't I do that same story?
Is it because I'm biased and secretly am in favor of Trump?
No.
It's because it was one poll.
And when I talk about Trump's all-time high, I try to use the aggregate to get a better view of his polling numbers.
adam crigler
Yeah, which is all the polls, right?
tim pool
And even right now, he's not the lowest he's ever been, so I'm not gonna make a story saying it's the worst it's ever been, because in the aggregate, it's just not true.
It's stabilized around 41-42%.
So when he reaches his best, I'm like, that's huge!
The aggregate polling, when one poll comes out saying it's worse than ever.
I'm like, yeah, but come on, it's static.
When you do polling, eventually you get blips and you have to average them out to try and figure it out because sometimes you pull the wrong people.
adam crigler
Yep.
So that's that, you know, pull the same people over and over and over again, too.
It's like the echo circle that we talk about, you know, it's like they, they're only talking to themselves.
So how do they know what the rest of everyone's thinking?
tim pool
That's actually another thing in that video I was talking about from don't walk run.
adam crigler
Oh, did I talk about that?
tim pool
Yeah, where it's like they have a polling group where they ask the same people every two weeks.
Right.
adam crigler
Well, the poll still shows.
tim pool
Yeah, right.
adam crigler
It's like you asked the same group.
Sure.
Why would you think that their opinions changed?
tim pool
And that's that's the thing, man.
I wonder if the tribes have been solidified already.
Are people just waiting now to jump up and go vote or what's going to happen?
adam crigler
Well, just to use Twitter as an example, you know, I browse a lot.
There's a lot of good sources on there.
A lot of senators, a lot of actual people in charge posting what they're doing, their bills that I can go connect to and read.
And then, of course, there's the crazy people that are on Twitter also.
And you can just look at, you know, I always like to take a step back and look at it as a whole.
You'll have a tweet, let's just say it's pro-left, just as a broad sense, and then a tweet that says pro-right.
Now, if you go through the comments, half of the comments on the pro-left are anti-left.
And then you look at the pro-right, 98% of them are pro-right.
So it shows me, just as a general populist opinion... Of active Twitter users.
Of the active Twitter users, most of them think the left is crazy.
And they fight them on most things.
Now this is just something I've noticed over my months of being active on Twitter.
So I'm seeing that.
tim pool
You might be in a bubble.
unidentified
Twitter skews left.
adam crigler
Sure, but what I do is left sure, but and and if that's the case then that proves it even more to me
Then if it skews left then wouldn't there be more left-leaning everything? I mean I follow
tim pool
There's a bunch of people I could give you where you'll see nothing, but the opposite of what you're saying. Okay, I
adam crigler
I mean, I'm just telling you what I've noticed.
tim pool
I blocked so many people.
adam crigler
I don't block anybody.
I don't block anybody.
I want to see it all.
tim pool
It's not about that.
You know why I block people?
adam crigler
Why?
tim pool
Because they will purposefully pull your tweets out of context and then lie about you to generate money.
They'll take one of your tweets where, you know, you'll say something.
Let's say you quoted somebody.
They'll screenshot it and then they'll post it and at the bottom it'll be like, hey, don't forget my PayPal link because they know it generates income.
adam crigler
Well, if I see that, maybe I'll start adopting that.
tim pool
You know what I love the most is when I would post things on Facebook.
I would like write something out and just post it.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then I would get these lefties being like, Tim's only saying this to boost himself in the algorithm to make money.
And I'm like, you think I make money on Facebook?
Right.
What money do I make on Facebook on my personal profile when I complain about stuff?
adam crigler
Right, right.
tim pool
Nothing.
adam crigler
Yeah, but the real thing is most people aren't on Twitter.
tim pool
Yeah, 78%.
adam crigler
Most people don't waste their time wondering about whatever their Twitter is doing.
tim pool
And Trump knows it.
adam crigler
Or Facebook, for example.
Even though there's probably a lot of people that use Facebook, but regularly, probably not.
Most people are busy working.
Most people get home from work and then hang out with their families.
Raise, raising their kids.
They're not, they're not having, they don't have all this free time to go march in the streets.
tim pool
Maybe, maybe Goya and Red Bull can be a turnaround moment.
adam crigler
Perhaps this is... The more we, the every single day more things pop up.
tim pool
Magoya.
adam crigler
Just like this.
Magoya.
Magoya?
tim pool
Yep.
Make America Goya again.
adam crigler
Like even Red Bull.
Red Bull straight up fired people because- Their CEO.
They leaked documents.
tim pool
Not just people.
adam crigler
That was just, it was just a meme, a joke about, you know, just a map.
tim pool
Oh no no no no.
adam crigler
Oh is it, it goes deeper?
tim pool
The initial story was that they fired these executives over leaking this insensitive map.
adam crigler
Right, right.
tim pool
But then they purged their cultural marketing divisions.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Yes, the Trump-loving CEO of Red Bull, it would seem, nuked these executives because they were trying to put in place a new diversity and inclusivity program or whatever within Red Bull one month before their termination.
Sounds like he saw it and said, get out.
Get out of my company.
And now people are like, you know, oh, Harumph!
How dare you!
Oh, diversity!
adam crigler
Well, I'll tell you what, I've never really been the biggest energy drink fan.
unidentified
But I don't mind Red Bull.
adam crigler
But maybe I'll adopt it a little bit.
I mean, I like seeing people stand up for what they think is right.
tim pool
How many companies, we were talking about this before, like soccer company, they're gonna put out a grand statement about why is the NBA doing it?
NBA put like on one of their courts where they're gonna be doing these like digital games, they wrote Black Lives Matter.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Why?
adam crigler
Right, why?
tim pool
I mean, I gotta be honest, I don't watch basketball anyway, so, you know, they're not losing my money because I wasn't giving them in the first place, but I'll pretend that I'm boycotting them.
No, I don't care all that much to be honest.
But it is strange to me that, I will tell you this, You know, baseball and football, I would passively watch sometimes.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Not if they're kneeling.
I'm just not interested in entertaining that stuff at this point.
adam crigler
Yeah, Trump actually tweeted that out.
He's like, man, I really miss watching live sports.
But I gotta say, as soon as I see someone kneeling and disrespecting the country, I turn it off.
I'm not interested anymore.
Because it's like, This country is great.
They don't have any idea what they actually have.
It's got this, like, fairy tale in their head that we're, like, such this negative place, and it's just not true.
It's not.
tim pool
For me, it has nothing to do with disrespecting anybody.
It has to do with someone, like, doing the, you know, the Cobra, Hail Cobra Commander or whatever.
It has to do with when they kneel, they are not disrespecting anything as far as I'm concerned.
They're pledging allegiance to something else.
They're asserting that they are at odds.
It's hard to explain, but it's essentially them saying the culture war exists, we are a part of it, and we are opposed to you.
That's what they're saying when they do it.
Now, listen.
I understand.
They try and do this meme where they're like, saying Black Lives Matter and kneeling isn't a negative towards you.
You are incorrect.
You are asserting an otherness.
You are pledging to an ideology which is at odds with my very existence.
I don't know if you guys saw the Ryan Long comedy video, but you absolutely have to see it, where it's two best friends, and one guy's shirt says woke and one guy's shirt says racist, and they keep looking at each other and yelling the same things because they believe in the same things.
So when you have, in California, In November.
Look, if you can tell me, if Predict It has this, I'm gonna put a ton of money on it.
Will California repeal its civil rights legislation?
I will put it all on yes.
You know why?
The name of the bill is the Affirmative Action Amendment.
The bill itself literally just strikes out civil rights law.
It has nothing to do with affirmative action on the surface.
adam crigler
Every time I say this to anyone, like even my friend today, I was talking to him about it and he's like, oh yeah, yeah, I know about that.
And I'm like, and you, you are still claiming to be a Democrat?
Like how?
tim pool
Yes, yes, no, that's about right.
adam crigler
What?
Like, do you not realize what that, what that means?
That they can discriminate based on your race again.
We got rid of that 50 years ago.
Why are we going back 60 years ago?
tim pool
Well, so to wrap up that first point, yes, I think this is a threat to my existence when they want the ability to choose what races and they make random determinations about privilege.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
California's Assembly and Senate voted yes to repeal this civil rights legislation.
It now goes to, I believe, to like a general vote, whatever, in November.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But people are just going to see, do you support the Affirmative Action Amendment?
Yes or no?
adam crigler
Yes.
Oh, it's brought by Democrats?
Yeah, they're great.
tim pool
Affirmative Action Amendment?
Yes.
adam crigler
Insane.
tim pool
And they're going to roll with it.
So I was talking to my friend about this and they kept saying to me, but why don't you like affirmative action?
And I said, I don't care.
It has nothing to do with what we're talking about, but it's the affirmative action amendment.
Okay.
But the language says the bill will remove this text.
And they're like, well, hold on.
But all of these news articles are saying that it's for affirmative action.
I said, I don't care what the news articles are saying.
Did you read it?
I sent you the link.
adam crigler
Read the bill itself, please.
tim pool
They finally read it and said, I don't understand.
How does this make sense?
And I said, don't ask me.
I guess the idea is if they can discriminate based on race, they can balance jobs or whatever.
And then my friend said, but that sounds like a good thing, doesn't it?
And I said, sure.
If you think it's a good thing that certain areas that are maybe dominated by Republicans start putting up whites only signs, if you think that's a good thing, then go ahead and support that.
adam crigler
Or Republican only.
You don't even have to make it a race thing.
I mean, they are making it a race thing.
tim pool
But it's also gender, national origin, religion.
adam crigler
Right, exactly.
All of the above.
That's what it is.
tim pool
Christians only.
Insanity.
I don't think, for the most part, Republicans will say white only.
Some might do it as a matter of point out the absurdity of what they're doing.
adam crigler
Okay, so, or inverted, the Democrats putting up signs that say black only.
It's like, where does it end?
tim pool
Well, here's the problem.
They like that.
I'm talking to a progressive friend and they like that.
So the only way to effectively communicate the severity of this bill is to tell them, here's what I said.
Do you think that Republicans are racist?
Of course.
Okay.
Do you think that once you remove this bill, Republicans will start putting up signs saying whites only?
Wait, what?
Because they'll be allowed to discriminate, right?
Yeah.
So do you think the Republicans, given the opportunity, would say whites only?
Yeah.
Do you think Donald Trump would intervene to stop them?
No.
Don't you think this law is bad?
Yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah, bring it back around.
tim pool
I don't think Republicans would actually do that, but it's the only way to communicate it.
adam crigler
But that's what they believe, because if it's not their ideology, they're evil.
Exactly.
So that's a great way of putting it too because how do you explain that?
How can you accept that?
tim pool
I assure you there are parts of California where they will gleefully put up a whites only sign.
adam crigler
It's crazy to me.
And now I know racist people are out there and I don't like them.
I think they can all go Burn.
I don't care.
If you're truly a racist, you don't belong here.
Because this is a country of banding together and being Americans.
Not whatever race you are.
Not a color before American.
Just simply American.
That's what we are here.
And they're trying to get rid of that.
tim pool
I won't go as far as you on that one.
adam crigler
Okay, that's fine.
tim pool
I think you're a racist.
I'm not gonna hang out with you.
You can go off and do whatever you want and leave me and my friends alone and we'll do our thing and we'll vote against you and we'll keep advocating for why you're wrong.
adam crigler
And eventually they'll go away.
Yeah, okay, maybe that was a little strong, sure.
I don't want anyone to burn, you're right.
I do want everyone to... Like, Darryl Davis, he converted these people to see that everyone bleeds, everyone loves, everyone laughs, you know?
It's like, that's what we need.
That's what we need.
tim pool
Well, he tried it with Antifa.
That didn't work.
adam crigler
He tried with Antifa, and it didn't work.
tim pool
We gotta clarify, though.
Racist doesn't just mean this image of, like, a shaved head country music white dude.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
You know, like, I'm using the joke from the Ryan Lund comedy thing for those that don't get it.
It's a reference to the left as well.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
These woke, insane people.
Look, I have friends who are, like I was telling you, I was talking to this friend about this law in California.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Insanely woke.
I wish her no ill will.
I will talk to her when given the chance and try and speak sense.
I'm presuming chaos and violence.
When that happens, I hope they stay safe.
But I don't know what to expect on that front.
What happens when friend against friend, brother against brother?
That's going to be truly, truly crazy.
But I'll tell you what, man.
I met a communist in Berkeley wearing a communist mask with a sickle and hammer, and we had a great conversation.
And they were a narco-communist.
So when I said to them, like, they were giving out literature, how do you feel about Antifa?
And they were like, uh, who's that?
And I'm like, those guys over there.
And they're like, oh, those guys, man.
Mean as long as they're keep their chill. I'm kind of cool.
It's okay And then I said what if they get violent and there he was
like nah, man, you can't do that That goes against everything we're supposed to believe in
these people are not not real communists I thought it was funny and like sure they're not right
however, my I shook the guy's hand I said listen man
If you believe that our system should be built upon Collective ownership of everything and we can all hold
hands under the Sun and sing and you believe you will go about enacting that world
through communication debate and
And hard work by all means come hang out with me every day We'll talk about your ideas for communism and why I think
you're wrong But if you're a violent insurrectionist who wants to burn things and beat people, well now we've got a problem.
Yeah, you know so so so long as you can believe I actually have my limits though this guy if he was a leftist racist I'd be like look I get it.
You can go hang out somewhere else.
I'm not I'm not down with you know racists You can believe what you want to believe.
This is America, but I'm not you know I'm not cool with that so we can pick and choose.
I don't go to churches, I don't go to monk events or whatever.
I do my thing.
I play video games.
I'm going to mind my own business.
And there are certain people that I actually find disgusting and detest.
But you know what?
As long as we're not stabbing each other and the world's not burning down, let's try and
do the best we can to make sure things aren't collapsing.
The problem now is we're getting this far left that their view of what racism is is
so skewed that they're calling black people white supremacists and then they're getting
adam crigler
I mean, we're seeing people like Nick Cannon, for example, coming out and say stuff that... Oh, that dude's nuts.
You know, and maybe that's an issue.
Maybe people need to stop equating what one person says as, like, a blanket statement for them representing their whole race, you know?
It's like, that's ridiculous, you know?
It's like, again, they exist.
Clearly, racism is still alive, but as... And emboldened on the left.
Exactly.
You're absolutely right.
This whole woke culture, I mean, we started talking about it because of that comedy with the racist shirt and the woke shirt, and they're saying the same thing.
We've been seeing this all the time.
There's memes all sorts of places that are saying exactly the same thing.
Being woke is being racist.
It's literally the same thing.
tim pool
That's why they're trying to change the definition of racist.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Because they're literal racists.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
There was actually a really viral Facebook post several years ago, like 2014, where a guy said the reason they're arguing semantics so often, trying to change the definition of what racism is, privilege and power, is because they're actually overt racists and they need to make sure that can't be weaponized against them.
So the first thing they do is try and change definitions.
adam crigler
Good point.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
Well, I can't be racist because... I'm sorry, Adam.
It's actually true.
I personally cannot be racist.
It's true.
As long as I agree with them.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Otherwise, I'm white.
But if I agree with them, I'm a marginalized person, and I can't be racist.
But if I disagree, Schrodinger's marginalized person.
Or no, no, someone said it's the Heisenberg uncertainty marginalized person.
adam crigler
There you go.
Harumphenberg.
tim pool
How about we hit up them superchats?
unidentified
Sounds good.
adam crigler
Sounds good.
tim pool
Superchats.
Man, what a crazy time to be alive, man.
adam crigler
Oh, man.
tim pool
I've been having conversations with some people about what's going on, and you know what, man?
I'm gonna gloat.
I've had a decent amount of, like, moderately high-profile people, like, hit me up, like, bro, you were right.
I'm like, uh-huh, go on.
unidentified
Go on.
tim pool
That's it, you were right.
I'm like, I know, and?
You were right, and the van is awesome?
Bingo!
lydia smith
Yes.
tim pool
The van is awesome.
adam crigler
Oh, in a couple months I'm gonna be able to say that to you.
tim pool
What, the van is awesome?
adam crigler
No, that I was right.
unidentified
Oh?
adam crigler
About what?
tim pool
Trump winning?
adam crigler
Everything I've been talking about.
tim pool
But I don't know what you mean specifically.
adam crigler
Silent majority.
Just waiting to vote.
Take up.
tim pool
I'm very precise with my words.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I haven't said there is no silent majority.
adam crigler
I never said that.
tim pool
I said I don't know if there's one.
adam crigler
It's okay.
I'm not necessarily saying that you were countering what I was saying.
But I'm still gonna tell you in a couple months when we find out.
tim pool
Here we go.
We got a very serious super chat.
Crackbot says, Tim, there are three boxes we use.
The ballot box, the jury box, and the final one would be the cartridge box.
Ooh, spicy.
adam crigler
Got a point.
tim pool
It's true, though.
I mean, whether you want it to be real or not, that's a fact.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Cornelis Janss de Jager says, Precious metals are a very stable commodity.
When turmoil is expected, people buy up metals as they aren't volatile or affected if the stock market plummets.
This could be the market preparing for a severe plummet.
And I think that's actually a fair estimate.
adam crigler
I agree.
tim pool
Or a fair assessment, considering delinquencies are on the rise.
Housing is gonna tank.
It's gonna ripple out from everybody.
Hey, have you guys smashed that like button?
We have 38,000 viewers but only 13,000 likes.

And you can follow me on Twitter, Instagram, and Parler at TimCast, at AdamKrigler at the same place, and at SourPatchLids on Twitter and Parler as well.
adam crigler
You know, you mentioned something just now.
The housing market.
Back in 2008, it popped, right?
You know what people are starting to talk about?
And I was thinking about this earlier today.
The mainstream media bubble is going to pop soon.
tim pool
It is.
It already is popping.
adam crigler
It's popping because people are realizing how crazy and it's basically the mainstream media telling everyone, I think you're stupid.
Listen to what I have to say.
And it is so demeaning.
And people are starting to go, you know what?
F you, mainstream media!
tim pool
We're watching the death throes of the media.
adam crigler
Yep, we are.
tim pool
Absolutely.
So what's happening is, people used to go to CNN for news.
And so they commanded a decent audience, and they could sell premium advertisement for news viewers, which tended to be educated business people.
Well now, everyone gets their news through random social media posts.
adam crigler
Memes.
tim pool
This is why they switched to Orange Man Bad.
Reality TV.
Right.
It's why, you know, CNN, which has gone full reality TV show with like, I'm quarantined in my basement.
Because reality TV, that's why they brought off Jeff Zucker.
He was the reality TV guy who did The Apprentice.
He did The Apprentice, right?
lydia smith
I'm not sure.
tim pool
Yeah, whatever.
I think he did.
So they bring this dude on.
They change their format because the media has been dying for years and they know it.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And so they're desperate for anything.
And when they're gone, that's gonna be a crazy time, man.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Jorge Robles says, I already requested off election day just to make sure I can get to the polls.
I recommend all do the same.
I'm sure it's going to be packed this year.
Make sure you get your vote in and spread the word Trump 2020.
That's two words, actually.
Oh, it's a word and a number.
adam crigler
Trump 2020.
Yeah.
tim pool
Lone Wolf says... Nope, I can't read that.
It's gone anyway.
Sparky says, Telecom Act of 1996 is the root of our problems.
It allowed too much media consolidation and took down logistical barriers between phone companies and government, which prevented willy-nilly spying on citizens.
Repeal Telecom Act of 1996.
I don't know enough about it, but I will take your word for it.
Man, we're getting slammed with these Super Chats, huh?
John Garcia says, I appreciate what you guys are doing.
You have my support.
Keep doing the good work.
Appreciate it.
Chris Rhodes says, curious, what do you guys think of this?
People love to compare the current climate to Nazi Germany.
So I want to ask, are we watching the rise of black supremacy, with Antifa acting as their SS, physically enforcing their rules with force and fear?
What Antifa is doing is literally what Antifa did in pre-World War II Germany.
It was the militant wing of the Communist Party, so they're doing the same thing.
The only issue now is they have no, there's no fascists to oppose them.
There's just liberalists, conservatives, Americans, and I'll tell you how I often explain it.
I love using the example of Sargon of Akkad because he's the liberalist guy.
Do you think that he will ever lead a large group of liberalists to Twitter HQ with pitchforks and torches to tear down the walls and demand that their rule be enforced?
lydia smith
It'd be funny if he did.
tim pool
Of course he's not going to do this.
He's going to have that charming British accent where he explains to you the real reason, you know, liberalism is the correct ideology or whatever.
But Antifa will show up screeching at the top of their lungs, smashing windows and beating people.
So who do you think these companies are going to bend over backwards for?
Whoever is about to hit them.
We'll see how that plays out in the election though.
We'll jump back.
Let's see.
Jake Dog says, Biden voice, spin that line dog face pony soldier and a smash that thing.

I guess.

Spin that.

Oh, I've got to get it on.
Your line dog face pony soldier.
tim pool
We have this for no reason.
Sean Easton says, now that I see Tim is watching Avatar The Last Airbender, could y'all review it once you finish?
No Korra.
Also, could you have Xi Jinping on soundboard to the Winnie the Pooh theme song?
That'd be great.
I watched Avatar like a long time ago when it first ran, and now I'm just binging it on Netflix.
It's good fun.
King Canuck says, Haven't supered in a while due to there being so many supers that y'all never get to.
Hope you three have been doing well.
Also, I love- I love you all Americans, but that border is staying shut until you get your numbers under control for sure.
adam crigler
Yeah, the numbers.
tim pool
Uh-huh.
adam crigler
Let's move on, move on.
tim pool
The Mr. Pickle says, there are so many NPCs in the world, because God doesn't have the processing power on his PC to have everyone as playable characters.
Huh.
Guess he needs to download more RAM.
You ever play the original Warcraft?
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
So you know if you keep clicking on the same guy?
adam crigler
He'll say a few different things.
tim pool
And then eventually he gets annoyed?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But then he just circles back?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
tim pool
I swear I've met people like that.
adam crigler
Work complete.
Yes?
Okay.
unidentified
What?
My leash?
tim pool
What?
You're getting on my nerves!
What do you want?
adam crigler
My leash?
tim pool
That was really funny, I loved that stuff, they did great.
But yeah, I've actually met people where it's like, they talk like that.
You try and talk to them and they just... It's almost like they have a menu where they can only say five things.
adam crigler
I'm here!
Let's talk about it!
unidentified
Go ahead!
adam crigler
Someone, was it Dr. July, DJ July?
I forget, someone on Twitter, follow, he's great.
There was this, he was live and he was asking someone who was on the left, like calling him out for,
calling him out, and he's like, I'm here, let's talk about it.
Go ahead, ask me.
And the guy's like, and he's like, do you need to go with your other keyboard warriors
He's like, he's like, yeah.
I was like, that's fine.
I'll wait.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
And then, and then it's just like, he's like, that's all right.
I got my lemonade.
And he's like, You know what it's like?
tim pool
Have you seen the episode of Rick and Morty where Jerry's in the low processing power simulation?
adam crigler
No, I don't know.
tim pool
So, the aliens kidnap Rick and Morty and put him in a simulation, but they accidentally kidnap Jerry, and so they don't want to waste processing power, so they put him in a 5% processing power simulation.
So like, there's only three people and they can say one thing, but he's too stupid to realize he's in a simulation.
That's kind of what it's like.
Yes.
adam crigler
Eric July.
That's what it is.
Yeah.
Thank you.
tim pool
It's like, um, so you're on the left, right?
Yes.
And you like Biden?
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
Okay.
And you don't like Trump?
Yes.
Okay.
I get it.
You have one word and that's the crux of your argument.
adam crigler
It's even better because after sitting there waiting for him, the dude on the phone finally comes back and goes, well I'm gonna have to concede this, you got me.
She just started laughing.
Like, alright, I guess we're over.
tim pool
Cool.
I did an interview with this woman during the battle for Berkeley.
And I was interviewing somebody.
I was filming stuff.
And then she actually bought it up in my business and started saying stuff.
So I turned around and held my camera and started talking.
And then she was basically saying that if right-wingers show up to Berkeley, it's their fault if they get attacked because they should know better because people here don't like them.
And I said, so let me try and just get this straight.
These right-wingers who go to Berkeley should know better because there are violent leftists who will attack them.
And she's like, yeah.
And I'm like, so you think it's their fault for coming because they should know better?
She goes, yeah.
And I was like, kind of like if a woman is wearing a short skirt and a guy assaults her.
And she goes, oh, she didn't say that.
She went, um, uh, I can't remember exactly what she said.
Cause it's been a while, but I have the video up on my channel.
Oh, man.
adam crigler
Which one?
I have to watch that.
White noise?
tim pool
Yeah, just like a dial tone.
And then after a few minutes, she walks back and goes, please delete that.
adam crigler
Oh, really?
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
And I was like, oh, no.
Oh, no, that's too juicy.
tim pool
You walked up to me.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
OK, I didn't walk up to you.
And I'm outside in public and I'm filming.
You walk up to me and say stuff.
That's good.
I blurred her face, though, because I'm not about trying to get people.
Yeah, yeah.
adam crigler
But you are about calling out the hypocrisy.
That's crazy.
Dude, nice.
Yeah, nice.
tim pool
The Lone Marauder says, Hey Tim, I live in Northeast PA near Philly.
BLM is planning on coming into our small town in droves.
The cities aren't enough now.
I was wondering if there was a way you could help us out, even if it's just reporting on this in a neutral position.
Uh, I, I probably can't, man.
Um, I work 16 hour days depending on what happens.
I can, you know, talk about it, you know, depending what happens.
But, uh, man, 16 hour days, I don't go out on the ground anymore.
adam crigler
You're crazy, dude.
tim pool
But we're getting to that point where hopefully we have field reporters more and expansion is coming.
But other than that, like, we're leaving the area.
So bye bye.
Let's see.
Tyler says, Can we please talk about the concentration camps in China?
I don't know how else to bring more attention to this.
Yes, we can.
And I wonder if there's something we can do.
Like I saw, you know, I tweeted about Mark Cuban.
Because he's like, I don't get involved in domestic affairs with other countries.
And I'm like, well, this is one you should.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Maybe that's something the left and the right would agree on.
For real.
lydia smith
You would think?
tim pool
Like, hey, man, look, you could think all the really nasty things in the world, but please sign this petition.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
You know, and they're probably going to be like, yeah, OK.
That's all.
That's all.
You know, a lot of my progressive friends don't even know what's happening.
adam crigler
Agreed.
tim pool
I was talking to my friend the other day and I'm like, I think Joe Biden's going to go in the bag for China, and I think Trump's going to oppose them.
And I think that's the best we can get right now with this genocide.
And she was like, what genocide?
adam crigler
Yeah, that's a shame.
tim pool
And I'm not going to get mad.
I'm going to be like, allow me to show you.
adam crigler
Yeah, let me show you.
tim pool
And you know what she said?
This can't be real.
This is happening right now.
And I said, yes, it is.
And it's been happening for a long time.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
So yeah, look, look up the Uighur Muslims in China, man, and spread the word.
Tweet about it.
That should be our big issue for November.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
unidentified
I agree.
tim pool
I'd like to see Trump, I don't know if Trump's addressed it.
He's addressed Hong Kong very strongly.
Yeah, yeah.
But dude, China's a scary beast.
And it's really, this is another thing that scares me is like, I know Joe Biden either doesn't care about China or is in the bag for China.
And I know Trump just loves saying that he hates China.
And I'm saying hate somewhat, you know, hyperbolically.
He's like, very much like, China, China.
You know, he talks about how bad they are.
adam crigler
He doesn't, he doesn't hate them though.
He actually, I mean, he still, there's still trade happening between our countries, but we're selling them stuff now.
We're getting money back.
tim pool
We need to sanction them harder than we sanctioned anybody.
And we need every other country to do it.
adam crigler
And he is, he is bringing the sanctions down.
I know, I know.
unidentified
Especially in Hong Kong.
adam crigler
Josh Hawley is a U.S.
Senator.
He's proposing a bill that basically any major corporation, if you don't know about this, if they make over a certain amount of money per year, they have to prove that they're not using slave labor.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
adam crigler
And it's like Nike, Apple, even the NBA.
tim pool
Well, a lot of these companies claim they don't anymore.
adam crigler
But they have to prove it.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
They have to prove it.
Because we're seeing that it still exists.
It's happening right now still.
tim pool
I'm pretty sure slavery never ended in Africa.
adam crigler
I'm pretty sure it didn't.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
It's still right now.
It's still happening right now.
tim pool
Was there like a break at a certain point or something?
Because it's going on now for sure.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, everyone likes to say that we're the country that... You know, listen.
tim pool
This is why I feel like the left is not a... It's literally the blob.
You ever see the movie The Blob?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
How it just consumes and grows and destroys?
That's all they're doing.
adam crigler
Yep, you're right.
tim pool
It's fire.
It's fire burning down the structure of this country, and it's spreading.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And I think the blob is a better analogy because it grows and has no thoughts.
Purpose.
adam crigler
Just blobbing forward.
tim pool
And then you're running and then it grabs you and you're like, you get sucked in and then either you get cancelled and spat out or you become a part of the blob.
And the worst is the people who gladly say, you know what, it's better to join the blob than get shot out and killed.
So they bow and get absorbed and become part of the blob, sign all the documents and just say, whatever, just leave me alone.
unidentified
Yep.
adam crigler
Nope.
tim pool
Restless Medic says, thank you, Tim, for saying Sumter correctly.
It irrationally irritated me as a Southerner to hear you say it incorrectly.
Did I just say it correctly now, Sumter?
I think I was saying it wrong before and then I read it.
adam crigler
It sounded like you've been saying it all the same.
lydia smith
Yeah, I thought that was right.
tim pool
But the first video I said before, I was saying like Sumpner.
lydia smith
Oh.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Like Sumpner or something.
I don't know.
adam crigler
With a P?
tim pool
I don't know.
Because I was just like slurring it and I started enunciating properly.
unidentified
Hmm.
tim pool
Let's see, where are we at?
We got a bunch of superchats here, we'll jump forward.
Simeas I says, Trump should put the onus on the governors with him saying if they don't want us, then we should not be there and withdraw from all courthouses in the states that don't want him.
Let them burn and he can pick up the pieces.
I was thinking that at first, but look, there's documents, there's computers, there's equipment.
There's no way they can abandon that stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah, there's evidence.
There's actual criminals that have been put into the system, rightly so.
Not saying that there's some, like, sure, you know, we have issues, but for the most part, there's criminals out there that have done crimes and have rightly been imprisoned.
So federal courthouses is usually like the higher echelon of criminals that have to be tried in a federal for federal
crimes. You know, it's like they're trying to bring down the federal courthouse. It's like for that to
be happening, like we have to take everything out. This is what we need to really stress. And
tim pool
you guys all watching this need to tell as many people as possible. When they say that Trump's
federal goons are going to do a thing, you say they are they're they're trying to stop the rioters
from destroying the courthouse, which is multiple stories of documents of computers of
court cases of legal work for criminals at the federal level.
We're not talking about some dude who stole some Wonder Bread, Ocasio-Cortez.
We're talking about people who are like, I don't know, loading up vans full of people who are under the age of 18 and driving them around to exchange them for green pictures of dead presidents.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
We're talking about the federal government going after traffickers and dealers and the worst of the worst, you know, and forgers and whatever white collar stuff to interstate theft.
The point is, if they walk away from this courthouse and the far left goes in and destroys it, that's one of the support beams for the federal government's legal system being destroyed completely.
The crazy thing is the left wants it and they're winning because the cultural institutions are controlled by them.
So long as the media isn't informing people that they're going to destroy legal work to put criminals away, bad people, evil villains, then the media, like the people are going to just agree with it.
These criminals are going to get away with it.
And I'm sure many of them are crossing their fingers.
Please, please.
Oh man.
All excited, hoping that Antifa burns the place down because then they're going to get off scot-free.
All the legal work gone.
So, that's the scariest thing to me about what we're seeing, is the people just openly supporting the violence, not realizing.
And of course, I agree.
You know, I'll say this.
I think the federal officers should stay in the courthouse and just barricade it stronger than they've barricaded it yet.
They've got all day to bring in a bunch of trucks and do, like, literally drill bolts into the ground and fortify that thing beyond our recognition.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then just chill inside and play a game of backgammon or whatever, you know, roll the dice and move little doodads around.
But we just saw the other day, they tore down the barricades they did put up.
And according to Bellingcat, I say that because I didn't see the video, they tore down the doors, broke in and attacked the federal agents in the building.
So we're closer than we've ever been to something dangerous, man, I'll tell you that.
Ian Hall says, super funny thought. The states that may want to leave the U.S. are the ones with
the strictest gun laws. How will they fight back with any force? Because those states are extremely
wealthy relative to many other states, and they have powerful national guards. And although they
have strict gun laws for their citizenry, they have guns.
And they have police, and they have militarized police and SWAT.
You know, these bigger states like California, if they wanted to leave, they have big cities like LA.
LA's got probably a massive police force.
New York does.
So yeah, they've got resources.
Let's see what we got.
Let's move down.
JMac says, I've started ignoring what Trump says and just reading the policies his administration is doing and pushing.
I'm not a Republican but I've been forced that label because of my position on free speech and my aversion to intersectionalism.
I didn't vote for him in 2016, probably will come November.
I hear you men.
That's what I hear a lot of people saying.
Kyle Harmon says, the lefties pay attention to who is in charge.
The right pays attention to the rules.
S.J.
Adam, I tweeted a video at you.
The Wave.
I think everybody should give it a watch in these times.
YouTube it.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Cool.
Coley says, bottom line, they are lying, like Tim said.
There's no occupying force.
They are in the courthouse and don't leave unless they try to breach or start a fire.
Been there several nights.
It's anti-fascists.
That's another really, really good point.
Most of the time when you see the feds come out, it's because someone started a fire.
And they're trying to stop the fire from burning down.
Probably because I think the barricades are made of wood.
And so if they try to burn it, the feds come out and try and stop the fires.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, when I woke up this morning, there was videos of them ripping out the wood that was basically barricading all the windows so that they couldn't just break the windows, but they were breaking the wood.
tim pool
Then started going after the windows.
adam crigler
So it's like OBS.
It's not like nice wood.
like nice wood you know it's cheaper you know plywood so yep it's like it
doesn't probably burn it they could probably burn it Yeah, so of course they're gonna go out there and put the fires out because that fire is exactly what they need to stop because it'll burn the whole building down.
It's crazy.
tim pool
Ascendiate says, when does it become time to cut out the cancer?
Being part of the union is a privilege.
If a city, country, or state wants to dismantle America, they should be excised to make it on their own.
adam crigler
How do you say that to all the people that live in that state, or even in Portland?
tim pool
Greater Idaho, man.
adam crigler
That don't, that, you know, they've been living there their whole lives.
They're maybe Republicans.
Maybe they're not Democrats or Republicans and they don't agree with what's going on, but they live there.
How do you reconcile that to them?
That's really the issue.
You can't just cut them out.
We're all Americans.
tim pool
We gotta get rid of this bad leadership.
adam crigler
It's a tough situation.
tim pool
This is how civil war starts, because you have half the country, I mean, 65 million people voted for Hillary Clinton, dude.
And Hillary Clinton was like, there's gonna be a war, it's gonna be great.
And Trump was like, no, none of that.
Not like Trump is perfect.
But yet half the people support it.
We'll see how many people vote for Biden.
If we can even actually get real numbers, I doubt it.
But I think it's fair to say there's a lot of people in this country who just hate Trump.
And what do you do when they say, I don't accept your authority?
adam crigler
Well, they're already saying that.
They've been saying that.
They've never accepted that he became president.
tim pool
So here's a scenario.
Trump wins.
Easily.
Everyone was right.
The silent majority was legit.
And then one by one, these states say, we are asserting sovereignty and rejecting the union.
100% out and then they argue many of these states are surplus states
That actually make money though. They've been not doing that lately, but they argue. Hey, we're the ones with the
money subsidizing you That's what many of them have argued. And so California is
like bye-bye. We're the Republic of California now. I Don't know it's Trump and then Trump sends in the army well
insurrection You know, you know the answers
I want to make a very bold and extreme prediction for fun.
For fun.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
Trump wins easily.
Many states say, F you, we're out.
We won't listen to you.
They still claim to be part of America, but refuse to accept any of Trump's authority or jurisdiction.
So he sends it, he declares the Insurrection Act, removes governors.
The federal government takes everything over from top down.
Then we basically have a single federal structure government, no longer state and local government.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Very, very extreme kind of jokey half-prediction that I think would be an interesting concept.
Could also be that Trump sees the, you know, the insurrection, the, you know, from these states and just asserts presidential directive 51.
adam crigler
Check this out.
This is from Uncle Juan.
He says, I live 30 miles from Portland and we have protesters who are not from our city showing up, people who are worried that we will get riots because our country or our county opposes.
Kate Brown and we are a prop, A pro-cop, pro-Trump, pro-2A county, we will defend ourselves.
Yeah, I see that happening.
That's what I've been talking about as soon as, you know, even the guy who superchatted earlier about North PA, you know, it's like they're gonna start going outside of the cities where they can all band together, but then they're gonna be hitting up homes, you know, and we didn't actually get into that tweet from the Attorney General from Missouri.
But, for those who don't know, the Attorney General of Missouri basically went on a long thread on Twitter explaining how the couple from St.
Louis, what are their names?
tim pool
The McCloskeys.
adam crigler
The McCloskeys were perfectly in the right, legally, from the law, and the fact that the prosecutors are trying to say that they were doing anything illegal is going directly against the actual laws that they have in Missouri.
They're trying to desensitize the the rest of the community to not do what they were doing.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
Just a chilling effect.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
So and people just know your rights.
Know your rights.
The McCloskeys were in their right to defend their property.
tim pool
It's not even a question.
It's so insane.
adam crigler
There's no question about it at all.
tim pool
I see these people on Facebook where they have no idea what they're talking about.
adam crigler
Correct.
tim pool
And they post, like, haha, they're getting charged.
And I see all these, you know, comments from people all shaking each other's hands and patting each other on the back, like, man, it was so dumb of them thinking they could just wave guns around.
That's so illegal.
And not one person references, for one, the governor said he'd pardoned them.
Two, Hawley said he wants a DOJ investigation.
Now the AG is saying he's going to seek the dismissal of the charges.
adam crigler
And an investigation.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
And he explains why it's a castle doctrine state.
tim pool
But none of this appears in these stupid meme posts from the left.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
They have no idea what they're talking about.
adam crigler
Yeah, because they don't actually look into what is actually going on.
They just see a meme and pass it along.
Oh, yep, there it is.
Pass it along.
Keep passing it along.
It's like, I'm so sick of the meme news.
tim pool
It's like, that is not... Screenshots of tweets and Facebook posts.
adam crigler
Right, exactly.
It's ridiculous.
tim pool
We got a big ol' super chat here.
Crimes against humanity cannot go unnoticed.
Free Hong Kong, free Falun Gong.
We got a big ol' super chat here.
QB Sacker says, I am worried that Durham will not get in his indictments in time.
Will anyone go to jail for fake Russiagate?
adam crigler
I don't believe the answer will be yes.
tim pool
Durham is going to get his report out soon.
Within the next month, I believe.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's going to be huge.
And this could change the game for the election for sure.
adam crigler
They really think that the president is an idiot.
They think that.
And they have no idea.
He's smart.
tim pool
I wouldn't go as far as say 4D chess like some of the more diehards say.
adam crigler
Sure, sure, sure.
tim pool
But Trump has been successful, man.
adam crigler
He knows what he's doing.
tim pool
I'll put it this way.
I can't calculate every single move he's made and every statement he's made.
I will just say he has a tendency to be correct.
Yep. That's all that matters. That means he will constantly be on the victorious side, which will allow him growth and
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
success.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
It's how he became a billionaire. It's how he hosted these shows.
I think it's funny when they're like, he's not really a billionaire, he's a personality, blah blah blah, he
licenses names.
I'm like, I don't care. Have you been able to craft the persona with big golden letters on top of buildings all
around the world?
Clearly he did something right!
Well, he was born rich.
Sure.
And then they simultaneously argued he was born rich, so it was easy for him.
And they also say, yeah, but if you put his million dollar loan in like the S&P, he would have made more money.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, he did go to college and has a degree in economics.
tim pool
So does AOC.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
But you know, whatever.
adam crigler
But he took that and, you know, sure, he has had his ups and downs in business.
tim pool
Well, look, he said it best at that rally.
I ran for public office one time and became president of the United States.
adam crigler
It's a good point.
tim pool
It's funny.
It's like the first time he tried, he became president.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Well, I mean, he prepped for a long time.
He toyed with the idea back in 2000.
So it wasn't like it was brand new.
tim pool
A lot of people like to play this stupid game and people, they get their news from memes.
They get their news from memes.
Yes, they do.
They say that Donald Trump has had five bankruptcies.
That proves that I'm like, out of how many businesses?
Hundreds?
adam crigler
Yeah, hundreds.
tim pool
So you're saying he has like a 95% success rate?
unidentified
Wow.
lydia smith
That's pretty good.
adam crigler
They also think that bankruptcy means you have no more money.
Right.
Look up what bankruptcy means before we continue this conversation.
tim pool
I was talking to a friend and they were like, this was years ago, they were like, yeah, but how many bankruptcies has he had?
And I said, do you know what a bankruptcy is?
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
And they're like, yeah, his business failed.
He lost all his money.
I was like, No, no, no, no.
He basically got a court injunction to stop his debtors from taking his stuff, so he gets to keep everything and doesn't have to pay for it.
I'm exaggerating a bit, but it basically means that he's getting bankruptcy protection for his business.
adam crigler
And that's not necessarily true either, because a couple of the times,
he actually had to give the banks his casinos, for example.
Like, they took the casinos.
So it's like, he doesn't necessarily get to keep everything, you know, but he still had, like,
the 90s for him was basically a check in his business side of things, you know?
And even in the aughts, you know, the early aughts, he was dealing with it.
tim pool
Did you read that famous story, whatever, where he told, I can't remember which one of his sons,
he pointed to a homeless guy and says, that man has more money than me.
Because his liabilities were substantially higher than his assets.
So his net worth was very negative.
adam crigler
I didn't, I don't know.
tim pool
Yeah, it's like a famous story, I guess.
Have you ever heard that?
lydia smith
I've not heard that one.
tim pool
Yeah, it's like Trump apparently pointed to a homeless guy and said, that man has more money than me.
And the point he was making was that he owes, you know, you could owe a million dollars and have a hundred grand in the bank.
So your net worth is negative $900,000.
So a homeless guy with a buck in his pocket has a higher net worth than you.
adam crigler
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
It's interesting.

So because you can't serve drinks unless they're getting food.
tim pool
You get one chip.
adam crigler
It's $1 and they call them Cuomo chips.
It's like a little tiny bin of chips.
It's like, oh no, it's a meal.
Yeah.
Now you can eat.
Now you can drink.
tim pool
Dude, this is so crazy.
What is wrong with our country, man?
adam crigler
Man, they're really squeezing everything they can.
tim pool
But it doesn't even make sense.
adam crigler
I know.
And this is the craziest thing is they're doing all this crazy stuff.
It's all Trump's fault.
tim pool
I know.
adam crigler
Every single thing.
All of it.
Every single bit of it.
tim pool
Trump abrogated.
I know.
lydia smith
They just wanted to use that word.
adam crigler
Yeah, seriously.
The people that have been in government for 30, 40, 50 years.
tim pool
Our complainant, the guy's been for three.
adam crigler
Haven't been making any changes, haven't been making anything better.
Their laws over the past 30, 40, 50 years have set us in motion to lead us here, and yet somehow it's his fault.
tim pool
And people believe it?
adam crigler
I mean, he's turning it around, man.
The more I look into him, the more I really believe what he's doing is best for us.
tim pool
The scariest thing to me is that so long as the corporations empower the cult, like the NBA, then the cult will remain socially... Like, look, when you find someone who's in a cult, you gotta remove them from the cultists.
So you can break that mind control.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But when they're seeing everything on TV, obey, obey, obey, obey, like, you know, the movie they live.
adam crigler
Daryl Davis, man.
He, the leader of the KKK, he met with him and alone had a, they met in a hotel room.
He had to like kind of sneak him in and like not let him know that he was going to be there because he wasn't sure if he'd even show up.
But it had a long conversation and ended up laughing.
tim pool
That's not what I'm saying.
adam crigler
It is an example of it actually happening in the past of what we need to do to have conversations with people.
tim pool
But what I'm saying is every major television, every TV show, every commercial, every brand is screaming obey.
You can't break someone out of the cult when they're like, I don't know, it sounds like what you're saying is right.
And then they turn around and everything screams obey.
They're like, you must be wrong.
adam crigler
Not our show.
tim pool
It's true, but even at the very least, there's probably going to be a lot of people who are like, I know you're right, but I'm scared of how many people are screaming obey at me, so I'll just obey.
That's worrisome.
adam crigler
Well, that's what we've been seeing.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
You know, but we're in this stage right now, like right where we're at, is where people are like, are we really going to obey this?
Are we really going to do this?
And I feel like, you know, look at Red Bull, look at Goya.
Goya's like, we love Trump, thank you Trump.
unidentified
And everyone's like, whoa, boycott Goya.
adam crigler
Come on everyone.
And then no one showed up to boycott Goya.
tim pool
What happened?
People are boycott.
adam crigler
Yeah, now people are going and buying all the Goya stuff they can find.
Because that's what people, that is the silent majority.
That's them, what they do, they're like, I could buy Goya, I love Goya.
Like, oh yeah, Goya.
tim pool
Then we gotta take boycotts seriously.
adam crigler
We absolutely do.
And we gotta see who they're boycotting, why they're boycotting, and then counter-boycott.
Buy Goya.
tim pool
Well, no, no, no, and don't buy anything China.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
100%.
adam crigler
Yes.
tim pool
You want to put a factor in China.
Not only are you empowering the genocide, the oppression of Hong Kong, you are also taking away good American jobs.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
That's why Kanye said he was going to make his shoes here.
I was like, good.
adam crigler
Awesome.
Maybe I'll actually buy some now.
tim pool
We got a big old super chat here.
Monies for catnip for the kitty-ten.
adam crigler
Nice.
That's a lot of catnip.
tim pool
Dark Matter says, super chat attempt number four.
I tagged y'all on Parler about an interview done in 1984 with KGB Yuri Bez.
Is this a joke?
adam crigler
I think it's a joke.
lydia smith
Gotta be.
adam crigler
Must be a joke.
lydia smith
Gotta be a joke.
unidentified
Please.
tim pool
Man, y'all make it hard to have your superchats read.
I can't tell if we're being pranked or not.
lydia smith
Well, thank you for the superchat.
adam crigler
Well, we've seen this many times.
tim pool
We've talked about it, I think, like three or four times now, where I think I get sent the Yuri Bezmenov video like 50 times a day.
Yeah.
And we just have to filter them all out and throw them in the trash.
adam crigler
I know.
tim pool
It's like an old video.
Imagine if someone was like, have you heard about the Civil War?
adam crigler
Maybe we should just do a full subject on it.
tim pool
I'm going to put a little graphic of Yuri Bezmenov in the corner, and it's going to be him going like this, and it's going to say we've seen the video.
lydia smith
It should be a counter of the times people have told us to watch it.
I like that.
tim pool
And whenever Yuri Bezmenov appears in the chat, it counts up.
lydia smith
Yes.
adam crigler
You know what, but we gotta say though, it's good that this many people are aware of what he was saying.
lydia smith
I'm glad, yeah.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
It's a good point.
tim pool
It's an old video, man.
All right, let's see.
Hobie False says, the Boogaloo movement is the silent majority making ourselves known through meme culture and many people actually showing up in, you know, Hawaiian shirts.
adam crigler
And buying Goya.
tim pool
And buying Goya.
adam crigler
And Red Bull.
Ooh, yeah.
They just got attacked for trying to get woke and those few people got broke.
tim pool
I am gonna order a bunch of Red Bull right now.
unidentified
Yes, thank you, I'm so excited.
lydia smith
I love Red Bull.
tim pool
You gotta support what you believe in.
adam crigler
You gotta support.
tim pool
Have you guys supported what you believe in by?
adam crigler
Smashing that like button.
unidentified
Boom!
tim pool
A little late.
I was trying to get you.
adam crigler
Yeah, I guess I got to be in the mood to really get hyped about it.
tim pool
I don't know.
If you want to fight for what you believe in, then smash the like button, the subscribe button, the notification bell, and share the good word that is Tim Castaio.
adam crigler
I think that's the most important thing, sharing, because we are having critical conversations.
You don't have to agree with us.
A lot of people might not agree with us, but we are having the conversations about what
is actually going on.
When we were talking earlier about the mainstream media just being a joke almost, I saw a couple
people going, this is why we're here right now.
So if you really feel like we're bringing you really good news, please share us, let other people know about what we're doing here.
tim pool
I'll tell you what it's like, man.
When you turn on CNN and they're like, lie, lie, lie, lie, and you're like, what is going on?
And then I turn on other YouTubers and I'm like, thank you!
Like, I saw that video, too.
I'm not crazy.
lydia smith
It's refreshing.
tim pool
Like, dude, when they say, like, Andy Noah's a fascist and all that stuff, I'm like, you must be truly desperate.
Because the dude is laying, you know, bare everything you're doing.
He's showing the videos.
It's a huge problem for them.
adam crigler
They're just trying to shut him down, that's why.
They tried to do a mass report on him the other day.
tim pool
I saw, so a friend of mine posted about the federal stormtroopers.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And then I commented saying like, after the, on the 39th day the feds finally moved in.
Yeah.
Like, take, I was like, I'm not saying you can be on anybody's side, you can support them, I'm just letting you know, the feds didn't just come out randomly.
And then someone else posted about an Andy Ngo footage, video showing people trying to like break the door down with welding tools or something.
And they said, what do you think about this?
Apparently this person couldn't get it to load, and other people said, don't read it.
Andy knows lying, he's a fascist, it's all fake.
Of course.
They have to say it.
adam crigler
They have to.
tim pool
Because it's showing the truth.
adam crigler
It's showing the truth, yeah.
tim pool
All right, let's see, we got one more?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Wait, I'm confused.
What does that mean?
theory here. What's going to stop this SJW BLM influence to not only influence
companies but our food or sports stores to not take customers money if we don't
donate a dollar to these movements when we pay for our food?
Wait I'm confused what does that mean? What's going to stop it is if we don't
unidentified
give them money? I think he's talking about like a post hoc tax that a store
levies if you don't give to their social justice causes. Oh but that would mean
tim pool
like they do something.
lydia smith
Yeah, I don't know.
tim pool
Yeah.
lydia smith
That's what I came up with.
tim pool
Well, someone says you could do a Yuri Bezmenov.
adam crigler
That's what I said.
lydia smith
That'd be fun, yeah.
adam crigler
We should just do it.
lydia smith
Let's just talk about it.
adam crigler
It's like a watch party.
lydia smith
Drink a beer.
tim pool
Well, no, I mean, we could just... Andy Ngo is a patriot.
Andy Ngo is a hero.
lydia smith
That's correct.
adam crigler
Dude, I remember when... People know.
People know.
Dude, here we are.
A lot of our watchers, they're aware.
They know.
They know.
tim pool
They get down.
Listen, listen, there's two big important things right now that I'm going to say this with complete sincerity.
If we are just preaching to the choir, and this may be the silent majority watching our show every night like, yay!
And it's only 40,000, you know, concurrent people.
Okay.
Then you absolutely need to... Smash the like button.
Yeah, smash the like button.
Engage with the content, really watch it.
You know, watch our videos when we post them and all that stuff.
But seriously, share it.
We're never gonna put out this insane marketing budget that CNN does.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
Fox News, you know, and I think Tucker's great.
I think Hannity's okay.
I'm not a big fan.
I think Fox has done, you know, some of their reporting's actually- They're hit and miss.
Yeah, a little sour, especially on their, like, their polls.
adam crigler
Tucker's really pushing him, and no wonder they're trying to bring him down.
unidentified
He's an anchor.
lydia smith
Yeah, he's a star.
adam crigler
Because he's speaking out, he's being bold and saying what he believes, and it's refreshing.
tim pool
But look, we really are at the whims of if YouTube decides that they can show us, and if at any point they say no, that's it.
And how much you want to bet with the things we're saying, that how much time do we have left?
adam crigler
I don't know, but I'm not going to change what I'm saying.
tim pool
Of course not.
I know you're not either.
And so I wonder if it's already too late for them and we're good because we're three months
out.
Certainly they can't do anything now.
We're talking about it.
Yeah.
And it exists.
So the most important thing is while CNN has hundreds of millions of dollars, we're not
We are just hoping that people share the video, hit the like button, subscribe, and tell people you've got to watch this stuff.
And maybe it's not even us.
Maybe it's someone else you think does a better job.
Maybe it's the Dark Horse podcast with Brett Weinstein, who does a great job.
Maybe it's Jordan Peterson or Sargon or Rogan.
But these are the kinds of things that you need to be making sure that you're sharing.
And also, my best advice to everybody is, if somebody wants to engage with you with anger, you cannot return with anger.
Number one thing.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
If you want to share something, make sure you share it with calm, you know, in a calm demeanor, in an enthusiastic, polite, and, you know, confident.
And if someone attacks you and says, fascist and all that stuff, Just be nice.
And you know what I say to people when they try and attack me this way?
I'll be like, I don't understand why you're being so mean.
And that works for a lot of people.
Like, look, I'm not trying to fight or be angry at you.
You know, like, please don't be mean to me.
And then some people are just nasty and they'll start laughing and they don't care.
But some people might be like, well, I'm not trying to be mean.
And it's like, all right, well, let's talk about it.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And that's the first step, man.
Even if they say, I don't want to watch Tim Castile.
Well, ask that guy.
Hey, man, right on.
Well, let's have a conversation.
adam crigler
Well, just tell him that the co-host is really awesome.
tim pool
Yeah, say Adam's better.
You'll like him more.
lydia smith
There you go.
tim pool
