Speaker Time Text
tim pool
Donald Trump has a lot of rich and powerful enemies, and he reminded us today in a speech
where he said, you might not see me for a while.
What exactly did he say?
Something like that, right?
adam crigler
Yeah, he said, you're not going to see me for a while.
I've got some rich enemies that don't like what I'm doing.
tim pool
Now we're seeing, look, there's a lot of conversation around an October surprise.
The New York Times has an article saying, you know, James Comey dropped, you know, a letter.
What will Bill Barr do?
And I wonder who Donald Trump is referring to when he talks about his enemies, but this was a really ominous statement.
adam crigler
I mean, he was talking about Big Pharma and how he's basically ruining their plans to overcharge the general public because that's what they've been doing for so long.
tim pool
He was talking about middlemen.
adam crigler
Yeah, he's like, why do people in Mexico have 50 cents for a drug that costs $2,000 in America?
tim pool
Starting to sound like Bernie Sanders.
adam crigler
If it's 50 cents there, we should be able to buy it for 50 cents here.
And it's like, that's legit.
That sounds good.
Why?
Why shouldn't we have it for 50 cents?
tim pool
He mentions they're middlemen.
adam crigler
Middlemen.
We don't know who they are.
tim pool
They're making money.
What are they making money off of?
So Trump is going after very powerful interests.
And he's talking about lowering drug prices.
He's going up against China.
He's got the world against him, man.
adam crigler
But he's got the American public on his side.
tim pool
Some of them.
adam crigler
Hopefully most of them.
tim pool
We'll see. I mean, it's been crazy.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Do you see what happened when they went to that lady's house in Portland?
Yeah.
So it's getting nuts out there, man.
There was a lady who is, I'll just say she was acting a fool for sure.
You know, she was wearing like a Nazi armband or something.
They went up to her house and they physically attacked her.
Okay, so Antifa physically attacked this woman on her own property because they didn't like that she was wearing this armband.
I gotta admit, I don't like that she was wearing the armband either.
adam crigler
I don't either.
Why?
tim pool
And I mentioned this too, like you see the people in Walmart who wear them as well?
adam crigler
No, what?
tim pool
Yeah, because they're trying to make a point or something about masks.
They wear a mask on their face.
adam crigler
Stupid.
tim pool
Yeah, I think it's disgusting.
I think it's absolutely disgusting.
You know what?
I'll mind my own business.
I'm not going to go to somebody's house, you know, or even in any way support a group that would do that.
It's America.
If you want to put up stupid things in your... It reminds me of V for Vendetta.
When E.V.
goes to the comedian's house, and in the secret room he's got BDSM, he's got the Quran and stuff.
And that was objectionable.
And he was like, if they find out this is here, you'll be the last of my troubles.
And I'm like, yeah, if you want to do stuff in the privacy of your own home, you can talk about whatever you want.
Just keep, you know, I'll keep to myself, you know.
But that's how crazy it's getting.
Now, outside of this domestic stuff, Trump's talking about his powerful enemies.
He's just now talking about, what is he, he's reimposing a tariff on Chinese aluminum?
adam crigler
Yep.
No, no, Canadian.
tim pool
Canadian?
adam crigler
Yep.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
He was talking about how the Canadian, um, I, I, I don't know much about it.
Actually, that was the first time I ever heard of it, but, uh, yeah, I guess so.
It's, it's, uh, something about them taking advantage of us.
And it looks like he's just trying to stop anyone from taking advantage of any American, which Bravo, Mr. President Bravo, because that's what we need.
We've been taken advantage of for a long time and he's stopping it.
tim pool
It feels like all of these interests are, man, it really does feel like we're being threatened almost indirectly.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I was shopping for some equipment and I noticed that everything was gone.
I went to, I'm not going to name the website, but I went to a specific website.
I was looking at certain, you know, gear and it was just, everything was out of stock.
All of the equipment, because it's all made in China or it's all made overseas.
And I'm like, This is crazy to me.
Then you see gold spiking, silver, bitcoin.
And this brings me to some crazy stuff, man.
Are we going to war with China?
YouTube just banned 2,600 Chinese accounts for influence operations.
adam crigler
Yeah, they're warning, they're showing their citizens to be ready for air raids.
tim pool
Something like that.
adam crigler
India's, you know, sending their... I don't know exactly what they're sending, but they're setting up all their air bases along the borders of China and India.
So something's... a lot of stuff's happening right now.
tim pool
I wonder, man.
It's just crazier and crazier every single day.
adam crigler
Not to mention, you know, the Ghislaine whistleblowing and a lot of big people are going down.
And it's like, it makes sense that the media is not talking about that.
Fires are everywhere.
Because they want you to be looking everywhere else right now.
tim pool
More videos about, you know, a guy yelling, I can't breathe, being killed in a prison, all this stuff.
It is a war for your mind and your attention, and it is getting crazy out there, so, man.
And we also got this story from L.A.
that we absolutely just have to talk about, because Mayor Garcetti has announced they will be violating human rights of anybody who dare opposes their edict.
adam crigler
That's insane.
tim pool
Now, that's a little hyperbolic, but it's not untrue.
They will shut off your access to water and electricity if you have a large gathering.
The reason that's insane, beyond insane, I mean, we're talking about dictatorial... At this point, Mayor Garcetti needs to be removed by law enforcement for violations of human rights, for even saying these things.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
Immediately, somebody needs to move for impeachment.
He's saying he's going to shut off your water if you exercise your First Amendment right to peaceably assemble.
adam crigler
And power.
Water and power.
Both.
tim pool
That's insane.
A few years ago, the UN said, if Detroit shuts the water off to people because they can't afford their bill, it's a human rights violation.
What would you call it?
If the mayor is saying, you want to exercise your First Amendment rights, we'll shut the water off to your house.
That's a whole new level of psychosis.
adam crigler
Welcome to China.
tim pool
Yeah, taking his cues from China.
Here we go, baby.
So, I don't know, man.
It feels like it's worse than ever.
Is anybody in California going to stand up to him?
Are there going to be any law enforcement that, you know, challenge this egregious violation?
I tell you what, man.
I'm willing to bet that the utility company will go right out with a smile on their face and turn off someone's water.
adam crigler
They told me to do it.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
Sorry.
Time for you to suffer, not me.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
Individual responsibility is an important thing.
It's not just about you taking care of yourself.
It's about you realizing you are responsible for turning that lever and taking away the water from someone exercising their constitutional right.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's going on in Australia also.
Australia's going nuts.
tim pool
They're shutting up people's water?
adam crigler
Not to that extent, but you can't go anywhere.
You have to like stay within like a mile of your home.
You have to, you can, I don't know exactly all the things.
I haven't really been paying too much attention about the details, but from what I'm seeing, it's like they're getting there awfully quickly also.
Just authoritarian, you can't go anywhere, everyone's got to wear a mask.
tim pool
It's crazy.
Do you know what coincides with authoritarian lockdowns in the United States?
You know, like, so there are periods in the U.S.
where they'll start enforcing crazy things.
There'll be a ton of censorship, like the Office of Censorship.
There will be the suspension of habeas corpus.
And do you know what coincides with those actions?
adam crigler
I have a feeling I know where you're heading with this.
tim pool
What do you think?
adam crigler
Is it civil?
No.
Is it war?
tim pool
Yes.
adam crigler
Is it civil war?
tim pool
No, it's not.
adam crigler
Oh, no?
tim pool
No.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
That's where I thought you were going with that.
tim pool
Suspension of rights occurs in this country when major conflict breaks out.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
With other countries, you're saying?
tim pool
With other countries.
Well, no, no, no, just in general.
In general, yeah.
The rights are suspended for obvious reasons.
We had the Office of Censorship during World War II, and they said loose lips sink ships, so that you shut up.
So now we're seeing all of this weird stuff going on at the same time.
The Ministry of Security in China told Xi Jinping and their highest officials, start preparing for physical confrontation with the United States.
That was in, I think, April.
adam crigler
In April.
tim pool
So let's do this.
Let's start with the... We're going to play the statement from Donald Trump.
Because this, to me... I didn't believe it when Adam showed it to me.
I didn't believe it.
But if you haven't already, make sure you want to let them know the deal with the like button.
adam crigler
You better smash that like button.
Come on.
tim pool
What's the deal, though?
adam crigler
No, no, no.
You better smash it anyway.
No deals.
Smash that like button just simply because you like us.
But then also, if you hit 30k, I'll put the mug of beanie on.
But it doesn't matter.
Smash the like button and share this video because it really does help spread the word, the good TimCast IRL word.
tim pool
The good word.
And don't forget to subscribe and hit the notification bell.
Let's check out this clip here.
We got it from CNBC Television.
I'm going to play it in just a second, but I want to point something out.
So this is the video where Donald Trump says, I got a lot of enemies.
You're not going to see me for a while.
Adam shows me this yeah, and I was like not real no way.
There's no way he actually that that's got to be a dub Trump coming out with a warning about enemies, and he's gonna have to go into hiding or something you made me second-guess myself, too I'm like wait a minute.
adam crigler
Did it is it real like no?
unidentified
No?
tim pool
It's real cuz there were a bunch of there's a bunch of videos on Twitter.
You know the deep fakes Yeah, exactly, and you don't know.
So, you were mentioning that you didn't hear it in the actual speech.
adam crigler
Yeah, I watched the speech today, and I don't remember this specific part, and I was just like, wow, how did I miss that?
And actually, there was a part in the middle of the clip where it skips something.
You know, he's talking about getting cheaper drugs from Canada, and then it Glitches or something, and then all of a sudden he's facing a different direction.
This is not what I'm talking about here.
This is when he's talking about having rich enemies.
Go ahead and play it.
unidentified
And the politicians allowed this to happen for many, many decades.
You have people called middlemen.
I don't know who the middlemen are.
I don't know.
They never say middlewomen, so they're politically not correct.
But I've heard the term middlemen for a long time.
They are so wealthy.
They are so wealthy.
Nobody has any idea who the hell they are or what they do.
They make more money than the drug companies.
You know, in all fairness, at least the drug companies have to produce a product.
It has to be a good product.
But the middlemen — well, the rebate that I'm doing cuts out the middlemen, and it reduces costs, and the money goes back to the people purchasing the drugs.
So I have a lot of enemies out there.
This may be the last time you'll see me for a while.
A lot of very, very rich enemies, but they are not happy with what I'm doing.
But I figure we have one chance to do it, and no other president is going to do what I do.
No other president would do a favored nations, a rebate, a buy from other nations at much less cost.
Nobody.
And there are a lot of unhappy people.
And they're very rich people, and they're very unhappy.
Here's my fourth promise to American workers.
Beyond our medical supply chains, over the next four years, we will launch our millions of new manufacturing jobs across many other critical sectors that are vital to our national security and prosperity, from electronics to machine tools to shipping aerospace autos, and, of course, to iron and to steel.
And we'll never forget your washers and your dryers, okay?
tim pool
I'm not gonna forget it.
adam crigler
No, he's bringing it back.
He's bringing jobs.
He wants American jobs.
He wants American company, American manufacturing.
It's great.
He wants pharmaceuticals to be made here.
If they're cheaper elsewhere, we should buy them.
We should be able to buy them at that price without having some middleman skyrocket it to Whatever the heck they want, and that's what they've been doing.
People have been paying way too much for insulin, the EpiPens.
Like, how much is an EpiPen right now?
tim pool
They used to be really expensive.
adam crigler
Right, they used to be.
tim pool
I don't know where they're at currently now.
adam crigler
Well, I'm sure it's changed because of his executive order that he signed like two weeks ago.
tim pool
Yeah, that was part of his deal.
The executive order was gonna drop EpiPens, I think.
adam crigler
Everything, I'm pretty sure.
lydia smith
And insulin.
tim pool
Insulin and EpiPens.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
That's pretty important.
adam crigler
Two amazing things.
tim pool
I was in a conversation earlier about universal basic health care.
And one of the problems we face with it is that people don't realize there are a lot of treatments that are scarce and hard to produce.
There's a lot of intensive labor involved in the specialists who can do certain things.
And so universal health care, when people think that anyone can just have a treatment for anything, it's like, no, there could be a base level care.
And even that is a bold jump.
adam crigler
I saw that thread when you were talking with that person, and I agreed with you.
There can easily be a baseline to cover the base things.
tim pool
It's still expensive, though.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
unidentified
But I don't want to get ahead of ourselves.
tim pool
This is Donald Trump talking about more than just drugs, and he's saying he's got rich enemies.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
That was freaky to me.
adam crigler
Me too, man.
When I heard that, I did a double, triple take.
Like, wow, he really just said that.
He's going to be hiding.
I mean, we kind of mentioned it earlier.
The Durham report is coming out soon.
Oh yeah, baby.
He's going against human traffickers.
It's like one of his big platforms that he runs on.
And bravo, because that's a huge deal that nobody talks about.
And that's happening a lot, non-stop, all the time.
Every single year, hundreds of thousands of people go missing and disappear.
And it's like, that's part of the reason he's building a wall, because it's cutting that off.
They can't easily just transport people back and forth.
And now he's talking about, you know, the big pharma isn't gonna be able to screw the American public anymore.
So it's like, he's screwing everyone over except the American public.
tim pool
So when I hear that he's gonna take people's money away with this, you know, executive order and all that stuff, You're gonna get a lot of enemies there, buddy.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And they're gonna be upset that you're coming after them.
And you're adding enemies on top of enemies, because... Check this out from the New York Times.
James Comey wrote a letter in 2016.
What will Barr do?
Two investigations appear to be potential fodder for pre-election political machinations.
Look at this photo.
Some photojournalist laid down on the ground basically.
I'm not kidding.
They're like on the ground pointing their camera up to get this crazy photo of Bill Barr and Donald Trump.
But anyway, this is the Durham Report.
How many of these people are sweating bullets?
And not just little .22 sweat beads.
I'm talking about .50 caliber sweating bullets.
adam crigler
Oh yeah.
tim pool
These people are probably crying right now.
adam crigler
I mean, they're lighting the world on fire because they'd rather the world burn than they themselves lose their power.
That's what we're seeing.
tim pool
Well, I mean, it's more than that.
adam crigler
You're right.
tim pool
Go to prison.
Absolutely.
It's one thing you lose money for your pharmaceutical companies.
Another thing when they're like, you're going to be locked up.
adam crigler
Yep.
Good point.
tim pool
Here's the other crazy thing.
You know, to get a little bit conspiratorial, because we have to.
lydia smith
As we do.
adam crigler
I mean, I'm always down.
tim pool
Well, no, listen, listen.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I'm listening.
I'm just adding that disclaimer.
It was a man, a notorious trafficker.
He was put in prison.
lydia smith
Oh, was he?
adam crigler
Can we not even say his name now?
tim pool
Well, yeah, we need to say Epstein.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But YouTube will definitely demonetize this whole thing now because we said it, but you got to say it, right?
So this is a guy, Bill Clinton.
A former president of the United States was in flight logs and ID'd by a victim as being on an island of a notorious trafficker with two young women.
And Donald Trump talking about enemies.
He's got a Durham investigation going on, and the report's supposed to be coming out.
That doesn't mean indictments, but John Solomon, whether you trust the guy, maybe you don't, he said, he runs Just the News if you don't know, That there's rumblings, something going on at the DOJ, and it looks like they're preparing indictments.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Now, what does that mean if you're somebody like former President Bill Clinton, who was in flight logs and ID'd by a victim as being on the island of a notorious trafficker with two young women?
Well, I'm not sure.
I think you'd be getting your hopes up if you think Obama or Bill or Hillary or any of these people are actually going to get indicted or anything.
But there's going to be a lot of people who do.
Now, here's why I say I want to get conspiratorial.
Imagine you're somebody who you know.
Like, imagine there is somebody.
Okay, I'm not gonna go in that direction.
Imagine there's somebody who knows.
They're on this list.
Okay.
And that the Durham investigation is going to, you know, jam them up.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Well, somebody else was in jail, and they're not alive anymore.
So I wonder, it's not just about their personal, you know, loss of power, or personal fear about going to prison.
It's about who they could potentially compromise beyond this.
So the way that, you know, we know how the feds work, right?
They'll catch some drug dealer and then say, rat out your friends and we'll cut you a deal.
He rats out his friends, they grab those guys, now rat out your friends, we'll cut you a deal.
And that's how they go through mowing everybody down, you know, figuratively, getting them arrested.
So if the Durham report comes out and they snag some people, and I'm not necessarily saying it's related to Epstein or anything like that.
I'm saying in terms of the politics.
So there's two different things going on.
You got Ghislaine and you got Obamagate.
The Obamagate stuff with Durham, they catch some FBI guy.
You know, he's corrupt, he's dirty.
Then they say, you know how this works?
Tell us who and we'll cut you a deal.
And that means they know, you know, loose lips sink ships, huh?
So if they actually indict some people, those people are going to be terrified that they're not long for this world.
It's not just about the individual they indict.
It's about the information they get from them.
Now, when it comes to Maxwell, that's a whole other different direction where she's got a list, apparently.
She's going to start naming people.
And I wonder, man, because the left tries to push this narrative that Donald Trump is the one who is trying to protect her or whatever.
And he said a couple of weird things about wishing her well.
But they're arguing that Bill Barr removed the prosecutor from the Southern District of New York because he was... Protecting, like, her from being... No, no, because he was going to go after... They're saying Trump got this guy removed because he was going to get her.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
They're saying Trump's covering it up.
adam crigler
I think Trump... I think Trump wishes her well because he knows... He said it.
...that she's... I know he did, but I think the reason why he did is because he knows that she knows who the bad people are, the people that are going down, who Trump wants them to go down.
So he's like, we wish her well so that she can help us prosecute all these people.
tim pool
Well, he was asked, why would you wish her well?
And he goes, because her boyfriend died in jail.
unidentified
I didn't catch that part.
adam crigler
But that makes sense.
tim pool
In the Axios interview with Jonathan Swan, he says, you said you wished her well.
And Trump was like, yeah, I wish anybody well.
And he was like, why would you say that?
And he goes, because her boyfriend was in jail and he died.
And we don't know how it happened.
So I wish her well.
And I'm like, that's exactly what I thought he was going to say.
adam crigler
He said we don't know how it happened?
tim pool
Something like that.
He's like, we don't know.
Is that what he said?
lydia smith
Yeah, he did.
He's like, we don't really know what happened there.
adam crigler
Oh man.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
tim pool
Wow.
It really does feel every day like Trump's not supposed to be in that place.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
Like everybody, every other president was in on the game.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And Trump, The Intercept said it.
The Intercept is lefty and they rag on Trump all the time, but they said he was like the most honest president and simultaneously the most dishonest at the same time.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But it was because... It confuses them all.
adam crigler
But I think he's doing it on purpose.
Go ahead, go ahead.
tim pool
No, this one moment.
It's historic.
It's the most important moment.
That's why I always cite it.
Where he's like, the helicopters behind him and the press are yelling at him.
And they're like, what's going on with this thing with Saudi Arabia?
And he's like, oh, it's an excellent weapons deal.
We're going to make tons of money selling weapons to Saudi Arabia.
And then all of these anti-war progressives are just like, uh... He just said the quiet part loud.
And that was it.
He just blurted it out.
So that's what you get.
Like, I'm sure there's a bunch of people who are like establishment military industrial complex or whatever that are sitting there like biting their fingernails.
And then he comes out and says, and they're like, Oh no, what's he doing?
Oh geez.
When Trump fired, when he ordered 59 Tomahawk missiles fight at Syria, you know what the press was saying?
adam crigler
Hear, hear.
tim pool
Yeah.
Donald Trump now acting presidential.
Is this the presidential moment for Donald Trump?
It was like, there we go.
So long as he's on track for their plan to blow up other countries.
adam crigler
War mongering.
unidentified
Yup.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It's good money, baby.
Or like money power.
adam crigler
Remember when, uh, he was doing all those COVID, uh, press briefings and he was talking about the deep state stopping it.
And you see Fauci in the background, just go like, just try to cover a smile.
tim pool
I don't think so.
adam crigler
You don't remember that smile?
tim pool
I do.
adam crigler
Oh, you do remember that moment, though.
tim pool
But I don't- everyone tries to act like, um, he was facepalming or whatever.
Uh-huh.
adam crigler
And... Sure looked like it.
tim pool
Everybody just sees what they want to see.
adam crigler
Well, we're in the con- you- you warned it, we're doing conspiracies, so I figured I'd throw that out there, just cause, you know, why not?
tim pool
Well, I'll put it this way.
When- when that- their feller, in jail, turned up dead, Yes.
Ain't nobody believed it.
unidentified
Nope.
tim pool
That's true.
adam crigler
They didn't believe it before it even happened.
tim pool
My favorite story was, I think it was Chris Raygun, when he's like, I got into an Uber and the driver turns around and goes, yo, that dude didn't kill himself.
Dude, nobody believed it.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
Everybody knew it was going to happen.
Everybody was making jokes about it.
It happened.
lydia smith
Brought us all together.
tim pool
Yeah, it did.
adam crigler
It's true.
tim pool
The crazy thing is, how could it be that like basically every single person gets it and nothing gets done, you know?
adam crigler
Well, it's because the American public are not part of this.
Yeah, dude.
tim pool
Well, they're shuffling that, you know, Maxwell around, not keeping her in the same place.
So if they really thought that Epstein, you know, if it was, you know, a self-event.
lydia smith
Voluntary.
tim pool
Voluntary.
It wouldn't be doing what they're doing.
So anyway, look, the main point of all this is if you think Trump doesn't have enemies, you must be living under a rock.
Because the media won't shut up!
But if you want to look at what he's doing with trade war, and now with these prosecutions, with pharmaceuticals... It's basically stopping China's plans, because they're trying to take over everywhere, man.
And let me tell you, we know that in statecraft, political leaders get taken out when they start, you know... War isn't always the go-to.
Sometimes you just go in and remove someone who's in your way.
adam crigler
It's true.
tim pool
Donald Trump is in the way of a lot of a lot of people.
adam crigler
And he's he's getting more and more bold about it.
Becoming learning how what he can do as a president and using his abilities.
And they don't like it at all.
tim pool
Well, I think that he brought on Bill Barr.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
Bill Barr is like, let me take care of this.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Did you see that leaked recording from Ukraine where they were talking about Trump and Hillary?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
Where the guy goes, you know, if Hillary gets elected, it'll be really, really good for us.
If Trump gets elected, it'll be good for the American people.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
They were talking about how they preferred Hillary because she was going to do a bunch of international stuff, especially with Ukraine, and it was going to help them out and benefit them.
But Trump's focused on America.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
There are a lot of people who probably invested a ton of money.
Let me tell you a funny story.
What if I were to tell you that there was somebody who worked in the highest levels of government and had a foundation that was taking money to the tune of hundreds of millions from other countries?
adam crigler
And didn't for a long time while this certain somebody was in a certain position of power.
tim pool
We're talking about the Clinton Foundation.
I don't know what you're talking about anymore.
adam crigler
Okay, that's what I'm talking about.
tim pool
Too much innuendo.
adam crigler
Okay, well, that's exactly what I'm talking about.
Didn't get anything until the day after she went back into civilian life, and then all of the money flooded in.
It's crazy, man.
tim pool
Well, after she lost, though, a bunch of the donations started drying up.
adam crigler
Well, yeah, because she was supposed to be president.
There's a period of when she wasn't Secretary of State, and then she lost, and it was like, oh, the plans have been foiled.
tim pool
Yeah, the assumption is that people were paying the Clinton Foundation.
adam crigler
They deny it, but I mean, there's so much proof.
tim pool
But I'll tell you what, man.
I don't care.
Look, if you want to play the Clinton Foundation was selling, you know, favors, Fine.
I'll tell you what.
At the very least, conflict of interest.
The Secretary of State should not have a foundation that's functioning and accepting money from foreign heads of state.
End of story.
adam crigler
End of story.
unidentified
Period.
tim pool
Or I shouldn't say heads of state.
I'll even be a little bit vaguer than that.
They shouldn't, if you're working in the public sector, you should not have a foundation that's taking money from foreign governments in any capacity.
adam crigler
And then what did they get Flynn?
Flynn was simply doing his job.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Talking to other countries to see where where they stood.
tim pool
Russia, Russia.
adam crigler
Well, he was specifically Russia.
tim pool
He didn't want Russia to engage in escalation of like some sanctions were going down.
Don't escalate.
Keep it tit for tat.
adam crigler
Yes.
tim pool
You know, and we can talk.
adam crigler
Let's work through this.
And it was on the level.
Right.
tim pool
Dude, when you get Glenn Greenwald, okay, this guy, The Intercept rags on Trump all day.
And he's been fantastic about covering the Russiagate BS.
He did a whole like two and a half hour thing breaking down Obamagate.
It is a hard story to follow.
But he's like, it was, he basically said it was a bunk, you know, BS, I don't know if you want to call it permanent government style fake prosecution of an incoming government official of a duly elected president.
And that's it, man.
What they did to Flynn, and they're still trying to go after him.
He did nothing wrong.
They won't stop.
unidentified
He should be exonerated completely.
tim pool
Yeah, you wanna talk about Trump's enemies.
So the way Trump's framing it...
That sounds scary to me.
adam crigler
I know.
tim pool
You're not going to see me for a while?
Is he going to go in a bunker and lock it down and put some guards in front of him and just wait until the election's over?
adam crigler
No, he's probably going to wait until a lot of people get arrested.
This Durham report's going to come out.
He's seen it.
He talks about it.
tim pool
What did he call it?
adam crigler
Breathtaking.
tim pool
Breathtaking.
adam crigler
He said that the report is breathtaking.
So it took his breath away because of what he's seen.
And he's like, you know, I don't know if I should get involved.
I probably shouldn't.
I haven't been.
I'm letting, you know, AG Barr.
I'm worried about Bill Barr.
Man, I mean, you're right.
He's probably a huge threat to these people also.
tim pool
Dude, did you see what happened with the guy who tried slashing the brake lines at the NYPD?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
July... I think it was July 16th or 17th.
Some Antifa guy... Actually, no, let's go back in time a little bit more.
It was like July 12th or something.
Some Antifa guy was talking to another person and said they wanted to hurt police and hurt the pro-police people and stuff like that.
And so it turns out the guy he's talking to was a paid informant for the NYPD.
unidentified
Oh.
tim pool
Now what we don't know is whether or not the informant became an informant once he was told these things or was always an informant.
It could be.
That this Antifa guy, Black Lives Matter guy, was talking to a regular person who panicked and then called NYPD and said, yo, this guy's nuts.
So this guy says he was trying to plot, he was casing the Verrazano Bridge, which for those that don't know, the Verrazano connects Brooklyn and Staten Island, and I believe it's the largest suspension bridge in the country.
I was reading about it.
adam crigler
It's a huge bridge.
tim pool
They were casing it.
I don't know what his plan was, but he said he wanted to disable it so that white supremacists couldn't use it to get out of Staten Island into Brooklyn or something like that, into Brooklyn.
So what ends up happening is he goes with this guy, this is a crazy story, he goes with this guy and they start casing around New York trying to find vehicles from the NYPD.
Finally they find a van.
Allegedly, he gets out and tries cutting the brake lines.
He apparently cut an anti-lock brake sensor.
But the NYPD was surveilling him the whole time and they got footage of it.
This is what they allege.
So, knowing what's been going on across the country, what do you think happened to this guy when he was arrested for this?
adam crigler
Well, he was released right away.
tim pool
Immediately, without bail.
adam crigler
Not surprising at all.
tim pool
So the Feds did?
adam crigler
Arrested him immediately.
tim pool
Arrested him immediately.
adam crigler
Good.
tim pool
Well, okay, no, no, no.
Immediately is exaggerated.
adam crigler
Whatever.
They got him, though.
tim pool
The Feds came in a couple weeks later, which was just the other day, and arrested him.
And this is crazy to me, because I was covering this earlier, and I read through the affidavit from the FBI.
The FBI, is my understanding, and I could be wrong, gets involved when something is interstate.
They're a federal jurisdiction.
If you're in a state and you commit a crime, it's the state's jurisdiction, not the federal government's.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
If you're going between states, that's when the feds come in.
It's a brilliant system.
So what did this guy do that warranted federal involvement?
lydia smith
Oh boy.
tim pool
Nothing.
That's a good point.
You know what the feds said?
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
The NYPD engages in interstate commerce and uses their vehicles to do such.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
That's it.
adam crigler
What?
So wait, but that's... How would they arrest him for that, though?
tim pool
Because... They're arresting the feds.
It is my... I could be wrong about this, and that's the thing.
I'm not gonna pretend like I know everything about... Well, this is conspiratorial.
Listen, listen.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Yes, absolutely.
Listen.
The FBI affidavit.
said we arrested him here's why we arrested him here's a picture of the evidence here's what he did and then the last paragraph says the NYPD uses these vehicles for interstate commerce and and I'm like okay wait wait wait hold on this guy was was informed upon by an NYPD informant arrested by New York City for crime in New York against the NYPD why is the FBI getting involved and the affidavit the guy's apparently facing like twenty years I don't know, man, but I'll tell you this.
It's not the NYPD that released him.
It was a judge that cut him loose.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's always the judges that are letting him out.
tim pool
With no bail, apparently.
Just like, you're free to go, sir.
So the feds came and detained him and said, you're not going anywhere until trial.
adam crigler
I bet the police are pissed about it.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Because they're the ones arresting him, but then the judges are the ones that let him all out.
tim pool
This is what's crazy to me about what's going on right now.
Yeah.
So now that we're in the weird conspiracy-minded space in Portland, how do these people keep getting out of jail?
The courts can't indict them, the grand juries won't indict them, and the judges, like in New York, cutting them loose.
How do you have a guy who tries to cut a brake line for the NYPD?
Yeah, it's insane.
You're free to go, sir, no bail required.
You're not a threat to anybody.
adam crigler
We just watched you do it.
tim pool
The dude was casing the Verrazano Bridge, allegedly.
lydia smith
Holy cow.
This is all allegedly.
tim pool
And they're like, the next day you're free to go.
So the Feds got involved, and this is what's crazy to me.
This says to me that Bill Barr is dropping the hammer, and he's not playing games.
So the FBI arrests this guy and says, well you know these vehicles are used for interstate commerce, therefore it's our jurisdiction.
It's like...
unidentified
Huh.
tim pool
Now maybe they could get involved, maybe, that's my misunderstanding, but it didn't justify it in any other way.
It like seemed weirdly like it was trying to.
My understanding is like, maybe, I could be wrong, I don't know, why would the FBI be getting involved in state-level matters?
I thought it was gonna say something like this dude traveled from out of state into New York, it didn't.
Just the vehicles are used for these things, therefore.
adam crigler
That's why I'm saying, you know... Interstate commerce, though.
I'm still thinking about that.
What would the NYPD be doing if they have proof that the NYPD has used that van for interstate commerce?
tim pool
No, the vehicles in general.
That's why I'm saying, this to me... How does that make sense?
It doesn't.
adam crigler
No, it doesn't.
tim pool
What makes more sense is that the FBI and the DOJ are taking it seriously.
These are violent extremists.
They're terrorists trying to cut the brake lines.
That could have killed nine police officers who would have been in the van.
Absolutely.
adam crigler
And what is, allegedly, casing the Verrazano Bridge, what is that?
They're going to blow it up?
I don't know.
It's a suspension bridge, so if they hit the right cables, the whole thing could crumble down.
That can kill thousands of people.
I'm sure millions of people go over that bridge every day.
tim pool
These are crazy people.
To be fair, I do want to stress, I'm very much a fan of innocent until proven guilty.
adam crigler
But when they were surveilling him, and watching him cut the brake lines... It's still their allegations.
tim pool
You show me a video of the guy doing it, and that's a different story, even then I'll be like, is that the same guy?
There's a photo, you can't tell it's him.
They show a photo of a guy under the van, and they're making these accusations against him.
Here's the thing, man, you know, look.
adam crigler
So what we've seen... I'm not going to say the guy's name.
The photo that they've given to the public of him under the van.
tim pool
No, it's actually the FBI affidavit.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
tim pool
So it was submitted to the judge, but it's public record, so you can see the photo of the guy under the van.
adam crigler
Wow, okay.
tim pool
And they're saying it's him.
There was one of those wall of moms... So the other day, it was a riot in Portland.
And, of course, the Democrats and these leftists on Twitter are lying every single day, non-stop, saying, now that the feds are gone, everything's peaceful.
adam crigler
Yeah, right.
tim pool
It's not been true one time.
adam crigler
Yeah, they just switched from the courthouse to now the East Precinct, and they're trying to burn that down now.
tim pool
And residential neighborhoods.
adam crigler
And residential areas, yeah.
tim pool
And the moms, one of them got arrested for felony rioting and was released right away.
adam crigler
Yeah, and there's a video of one of those moms that just, like, trying to wow up the crowd, like, we're here to F stuff up!
We're here to have stuff up!
We're here to have stuff up!
Like, just like, what?
You're wearing the mom shirt.
Like, you're for peace, aren't you?
tim pool
Propaganda.
adam crigler
No, you're not.
They want to F stuff up.
Lies.
That's what they're about.
tim pool
Andy No called it.
adam crigler
Andy No, what a boss.
tim pool
When the moms first appeared and their arms were linking together, and they were like, but we're just mothers.
Andy said, I recognize many of these women.
They're Antifa.
They're lying.
It's propaganda.
Sure enough, now that the riots are continuing, they're actually overtly engaged in the riots wearing the yellow shirts.
You know what really, really, really got me angry today?
adam crigler
Really, really, really angry?
tim pool
Really, really.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And I was reading about Night 70 of the ongoing riots in Portland, and the article from Oregon Live had 16 instances of the word protester, and I believe two instances of the word demonstrators.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
In an article titled Police Declare Riot.
And I'm like, stop.
Stop.
Just say it.
There is a weird, like, cognitive dissonance going on in the narrative of the far-left riots and extremism, where it's like, I can tell their fingers are probably, like, shaking as they type the word protester and their eyes are twitching.
unidentified
It's like, it's not true, but ugh, I have to say it.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Protester.
adam crigler
They're not protesting anything right now.
tim pool
No, they're just trying to burn stuff down.
adam crigler
Yeah, they're straight up simply rioters.
Period.
No confusion.
The protesters left.
They don't have their shield anymore.
You see who they are.
It's all just Antifa burning stuff.
Rioters.
tim pool
I wonder why they backed off the courthouse, because the feds did not leave.
There's a video where the feds are walking around sweeping up trash, and the left is screaming at them, and the feds are just sweeping up trash.
For some reason, the far leftists, Antifa, stopped throwing the explosives.
Now, it was initially reported that other protesters stopped them.
That says to me, they wanted the opening for the propaganda.
Once it was announced by the Democrats, by Kate Brown, that the Feds were withdrawing, even though it's not true and they're still there, all of a sudden the protesters stopped Antifa from throwing explosives.
Then, when there was no fighting, they said, oh look, now there's no fighting.
You see, it was Trump's fault.
Meanwhile, that same day, when they claimed there was no fighting, There was a bunch of far leftists rioting through residential neighborhoods 100 miles south in Springfield, Oregon.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And then since then, as they've been saying, see, the federal courthouse is all peaceful now.
It was Trump's fault.
The feds are still there.
They didn't leave.
adam crigler
I know.
tim pool
They're all still there.
But now Antifa's going to residential neighborhoods.
They went to some woman's house and they physically attacked her on her property.
Now, mind you, like we mentioned, this lady was acting a fool.
She was wearing a Nazi armband.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But you don't go to someone's property and attack them on their property.
They were screaming at her, take it off, and it's like, yo bro, she's in her own house.
adam crigler
They were blasting her with those lasers.
tim pool
They were trying to permanently maim her.
People don't realize it, man, and this lady didn't realize it.
The green lasers they use will permanently blind you.
I am not exaggerating, it's not a joke.
They will hold it in your face, and if you look at it, you could be blind for the rest of your life.
There's a tool that they use and they've used for a long time called the Dazzler.
This is used by law enforcement.
It's used in the Middle East and it's a powerful green laser.
They point at your face and they click it and blast you and it makes you blind for about 30 seconds.
So the easiest way to explain it is like if you've ever looked at a light directly and then you get those spots.
Imagine that covered your entire field of vision.
adam crigler
Forever.
tim pool
Forever.
Just wiping out your ability to see.
Just frying your lenses or whatever, how it works.
adam crigler
It's crazy.
tim pool
So we use these.
They're weapons.
And they were doing it to this woman because they didn't like that she was wearing an offensive piece of... an offensive garment.
adam crigler
Honestly, I don't like it either.
tim pool
Exactly.
I'd have no problem, you know, swearing at her or something.
You know what I mean?
I'd be like, yeah, like, you know what, man?
The problem with a lot of these people that think they can wear this to antagonize is they look... they're not doing what they think they're doing.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
They're just looking like idiots.
So, but you know what?
I mind my own business.
Am I gonna walk up to somebody's house and swear at them?
No, I'm not gonna do it.
If I saw somebody in public, I'd be like... I'm gonna stay away from that kind of person, you know what I mean?
You go do your thing, you get away from me.
You wanna start trouble with me, you'll find trouble, but I'm gonna mind my own business.
For them to go to somebody's house.
Here's what's important about this in terms of escalation.
It was never going to be something, you know, ridiculous, like Antifa shuts up someone's house, knocks on the door, and says, we couldn't help but notice the wind chimes.
Yeah, well, wind chimes actually come from this country, so prove... It wasn't going to be ridiculous.
It's going to be incremented.
So now, they're going to say, we're justified in doing it because of what she was wearing.
Now that the media has not... Where are the headlines?
Where's CNN?
Where's any of these outlets to be like, yo, don't go to people's houses?
Nowhere.
adam crigler
Well, they don't want anyone knowing that Antifa actually exists.
That's what they've been telling everyone.
They can't now switch their tune because then it'll prove that they've been wrong for the past two months.
You know?
tim pool
So now that I can't switch and now that Antifa knows they can go to someone's house and nothing will be said about
them negative That's a good point. Nothing. Nothing good anybody's house
See see if the media called him out there They would they would have defended themselves say well,
you know, we wouldn't but like look what she was doing now that the media said nothing it's like
unidentified
car Blanche Go for it.
tim pool
Go to somebody's house.
They went to Andy Ngo's house.
adam crigler
Did they?
tim pool
Yeah, a while ago.
And they've been threatening and intimidating him.
They physically attacked him in the street.
And look, they've been to Tucker Carlson's house.
They've been to Cassandra Fairbanks' house.
They went to the politicians' homes.
This is terrorism, dude.
adam crigler
I'm sure they don't like us.
tim pool
Oh, definitely.
Yeah, but you know, I think...
I keep a lot of it to ideas.
We both do.
We're either talking about the highest level or the general concept.
When you start talking, you name one of these people and they'll come to your house.
And that's the thing about Andy.
adam crigler
Yeah, he does call each and every one of them out.
tim pool
Andy does, he, so whenever these people get arrested, their information is public.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
So Andy reports on who the people are, what they're doing, for this.
They've made up insane fake news about him and they go after him, they go to his house, they attack him and stuff like that.
So, but definitely, you know, they don't like what we're doing, that's for sure.
adam crigler
No, definitely not.
tim pool
They love it when the media lies.
What was it that video they put out where they're like stop filming us and posting videos because we're getting arrested?
adam crigler
Yep.
They're basically just begging people to please stop filming us doing what we're doing because we're getting... people are finding us through those videos and arresting us.
And all I can think is just like...
Good.
Good riddance.
Keep filming.
People are going to film it because they want the clicks.
Sorry.
That's kind of what this society is now.
People want to get those views.
They want to get the shares.
And you're the star of the show.
And we're all watching you like you're the spoiled little brat that you are.
You're getting arrested because you're rioting.
Rioting.
Not protesting anymore.
You're rioting.
What's this?
tim pool
Now this story gets crazy, bro.
So that previous story, I'll say, was just in connection to Bill Barr is going after these people, right?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So we started with talking about Trump and his enemies.
Then you get Bill Barr, and he's the one launching these investigations, prosecutions as the Attorney General.
So that's why I'm worried about Bill Barr as well.
adam crigler
Yeah, good point.
tim pool
Then you see this Antifa guy who gets released, and the feds jump in and lock him up.
I wouldn't be surprised if the stuff we see in Portland, we're going to start seeing, you know, federal indictments.
I mean, we are.
We literally are.
adam crigler
Well, the FBI has a list of over 300 people that they're going after.
tim pool
Exactly.
adam crigler
Right now.
tim pool
Now, this story is getting a little crazy.
Check this out.
Whoa.
One tweet tried to identify a cop, then five people were charged with felony harassment.
Is retweeting an officer's photo cyber harassment?
Now the first thing I'll point out is, I do not trust The Verge.
The Verge is far left.
They lie.
However, this story is essentially what they're saying.
Some far leftist published a photo.
There was a cop wearing a, I think it was a thin blue line mask.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And they said something like, if anyone knows who this B is, throw his info under this tweet.
And then there were five retweets, I think.
And so those people who retweeted it, they're charged with felonies.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
Yeah.
Yep.
adam crigler
Felony harassment.
That's what you said?
tim pool
Now there's an interesting thing about this.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
You know, my first reaction is, does this cross the line, right?
If I'm a journalist and I'm like, hey, I'm trying to figure out who this guy is and crowdsource some information, is that harassing somebody?
adam crigler
Yeah, I know.
That's a tough question.
I mean, they literally dox people to get people to go to their houses and attack them.
So, I mean, if you're trying to do a story on someone, it's as journalists.
tim pool
But it's the action itself.
adam crigler
You're right.
Exactly.
And the intent.
tim pool
I got to say, this does, to me, feel extremely flimsy.
And it may just be an intimidation tactic.
Good point using the arrest to you know shock and scare But there there is still I think an argument these people
are retweeting it. That's a group of people getting together
Showing someone's face and asking for their private information
Yep, so I guess the argument is typically harassment is persistent, but what if you have
group harassment or some kind of cyber stalking with a group of people if
If like it's like gang violence, right? Mm-hmm If you're by yourself and you get into a fight, they might
just be like, bad hair day, everybody You're with a group of people wearing like, you know, some imagery or something, and they'll say it's gang violence.
That's what happened in New York with the Proud Boys.
So, Proud Boys fighting Antifa was gang violence.
Okay.
If these far leftists are grouping up online to target cops, and it's literally to pull up private information, are they engaging in harassment because they're in a group of people?
adam crigler
And they all tend to have the little hammer and sickle.
They're proudly posting it in their names now.
We're seeing that.
I don't know if they did, but that's basically like all wearing the same bandana.
tim pool
My big problem with this story, you've got the ACLU obviously saying that it's ridiculous,
They confirmed the existence to The Verge and said this individual, as did the attorney, The Verge has also reviewed it, so I guess, I don't know what the ACLU is saying, obviously they're viewing it rather negatively, I guess.
But I'll tell you right away, when I see The Verge talking about it, my first question is, what did they omit?
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
I don't, look man, there was a story once from The Verge, and it talked about Blaire White.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
Are you familiar with Blaire?
adam crigler
I know a little bit about her, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, so Blaire White, conservative trans YouTuber, and The Verge wrote like a smear about Blaire.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Blaire then said, whoa, this is like ridiculously not true.
So then the author then just said, oh, okay, we'll fix it, and added a whole new paragraph of fake news and lies.
More smears.
adam crigler
More.
tim pool
More lies.
adam crigler
Oh, man.
tim pool
And I reached out to somebody who was involved, because I know a lot of these people.
I worked in the New York media space, and they just didn't respond to me.
Of course not.
And I'm like, this is nuts.
I was like, I reached out to this person, I know this person, we've had lunch on several occasions, and I'm like, hey, I just want to give you a heads up, this is not true, and I think you guys should issue a correction.
Ignore.
Stayed up.
So when I see this story, you know what I think?
I wonder what they were doing behind the scenes.
I wonder what the cops actually know about what they were doing.
Sorry, I don't trust them.
I don't trust the ACLU because the ACLU is overtly engaging in racist, you know, policy, anti-civil rights on numerous occasions.
I know The Verge has published fake news.
I would not be surprised if the goal of this article is to make it seem like they did nothing wrong and they're simply being persecuted for just posting silly tweets.
adam crigler
Yeah, right.
tim pool
And it's because of the lies they've put out that's put me in this position.
Because I'll tell you what, if this story on its face is true, I don't think they should be charged for this.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, all they're saying is that they retweeted it.
But they could be leaving out that they retweeted it with information of the person that they were asking for.
You know, like trying to spread the fact that they know who this person is.
Retweet.
Here's some information I've got.
Anybody else have more information about this specific person because we got to go after him.
You know, maybe they were openly talking about it.
You know, we don't know.
tim pool
And there's no other... I can't really find any other stories talking about it other than The Verge.
adam crigler
Wow.
So, I'll tell you this- So why would they even talk about it?
Just because they're trying to make the cops that arrested them look bad?
tim pool
It's a hot story.
adam crigler
I guess, yeah.
tim pool
It's to be like, whoa, look at this encroachment, this authoritarianism.
adam crigler
I'll tell you what, right away, first of all- Oh, they're really fascist, see?
Proof.
tim pool
Absolutely.
And hey, I'll tell you what, if they're telling the truth on this, then these people, I don't think they should be charged, especially with a felony for posting a photo.
But it's getting interesting, I'll tell you what.
Because at a certain point, we have a serious problem with doxing and harassment, showing up to people's homes.
The officer basically said that it made them feel threatened because they were trying to publish, you know, their family, their information.
You know, it's crazy.
In Portland, when, you know, the cops switched from name badges to unique identifier codes.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah, the numbers.
tim pool
It's very much like Watchmen, the new series.
I haven't seen it yet.
I didn't and I'm not going to.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But in the show, all the cops start wearing masks because people were publishing, you know, the bad guys.
This is really funny.
In the show Watchmen, the bad guys were publishing their information.
It's like, welcome to real life, where the bad guys are still the ones publishing their information.
Only this time, it's the people who think they're the good guys.
But this is a dramatic escalation.
So this'll be interesting to see where this kicks off to.
If other people start, you know, are they gonna start getting charged for doxxing?
The crazy thing is, I should say crazy.
I guess the sort of funny thing is, as with all of these far leftist moves they make, they dox all day and night.
They put up websites with people's names and information, and then they cry and complain when someone else does it.
That's the name of the game.
They'll hit you, and then as soon as you hit back, they go, help, help, I'm being repressed.
adam crigler
I'm a victim now.
See?
Proof.
Proof that I'm a victim.
You put yourself under the boot.
tim pool
These are little kids who knew to pretend to be bullied in school to get what they wanted.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
The teacher would walk by and they'd pretend to fall down and go like, they shoved me!
And they'd be like, I'll take them.
And haha, I got you.
And the kid would get in trouble.
That's what they're doing, man.
But we'll see because I'll tell you what.
I'm not a fan of government overreach or authoritarianism.
There's a fine line between posting a public photo.
If you're in public and someone takes a photo, well, then you don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy.
He was wearing a mask.
They're calling the docks him.
Multiple people got involved.
Seems silly, but maybe we need to start talking about consequences for online mob behavior.
adam crigler
Good point.
So it's like... Especially when it's leading to or alluding that they want to promote real-life violence.
Because that's what it seems like they were doing here.
tim pool
Harm.
It's beyond... Okay.
So check it out.
If a group of people goes to Yelp and then claims your business serves bad food and it's all fraud.
adam crigler
And it's all just a bunch of Karens screaming about it.
tim pool
Maybe we need a law saying group fraud is illegal.
If you engage in an online brigade, a group of people lying about a business.
adam crigler
Just because.
tim pool
Because you don't like them.
Maybe we need some legislation about that.
adam crigler
How do you prove that though?
tim pool
It's really difficult because it's a free speech issue.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
And this is what's getting challenging.
When I put on this event in the Philly area and a bunch of Antifa started calling the venues and lying like crazy.
We can't sue each and every one of these people.
Yes, they're lying.
Yes, it's defamation.
It's libelous.
And they're even violent threats.
What are we going to do?
Launch 1,500 lawsuits against each and every one?
It's impossible.
It's impossible.
So, this kind of thing didn't exist before the information age.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's true.
tim pool
You might get people believing fake news, for sure, but the scale to which regular people from across this country... Here's what's happening.
In this area, so where we are, we were going to put on an event with Daryl Davis, famed anti... Amazing man.
Yeah, he de-radicalized like over 200 Klansmen, white supremacists.
adam crigler
Awesome dude.
tim pool
We did put an event on with him, mind you, but some Antifa people called and basically threatened to burn down the theater at the 11th hour, and the theater canceled on us.
These people didn't live here.
I do.
They started lying to the press saying we won't allow them to come here.
And I was like, bro, you guys that are coming here are from upstate.
This is my town where I'm putting on an event.
In my town.
Now, if we didn't have internet coordination or whatever, that wouldn't have happened.
The people who live here would not have had large numbers.
There wouldn't have been any phone calls.
Maybe one person would call and be like, I don't like this.
They'd be like, too bad.
But because the internet exists, These venues started getting phone calls from San Francisco.
And I actually had to listen in on one of these calls and it was hilarious.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Yeah, so the guy calls, he calls up and he's like, I just want to let you know that you're hosting white supremacists and this is unacceptable.
And because of this, I will no longer be patronizing your business.
And the venue was like, your area code is San Francisco.
And the guy was like, yes.
Sir, have you ever been to this venue?
No.
Do you live in California?
Yeah.
Then why do I care what you think?
I was like the most hilarious thing I've ever heard.
Like, seriously.
adam crigler
It's embarrassing, really.
tim pool
But when you get inundated with emails, these people don't know.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
All of a sudden they're like, I've never seen this much.
And so it's a coordinated fraud.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And they argue it's free speech.
adam crigler
Well, and we've talked about these people on the left.
They've got nothing better to do but then to be victims and collectively get together and shoot their anger at people that are just trying to live their lives.
tim pool
It's scary because I was thinking about it earlier, that everything's so good now that we've created extreme entitlement.
Good point.
Right, so the better things get and the less work needs to be done, the more you end up with people who demand everything and don't do anything.
adam crigler
And they don't have a purpose.
tim pool
Exactly.
adam crigler
Because there's no job to do.
There's no job to do, right.
tim pool
So I was thinking about this in terms of like universal healthcare debate and all this stuff, and I was like, if you have only, you know, the amount of production required, the amount of labor required to produce food to feed everybody, it's getting easier and easier for us to mass produce food, you know, we have better machinery, better technology, and now Americans Pretty fat, you know?
So, at a certain point, most people can literally sit around all day, and in America, we have fat homeless people.
adam crigler
That's true, yeah.
tim pool
So, we have homeless people today that are fatter than the fattest man in the world 100 years ago.
So what ends up happening is you get a lot of people who don't have to do any work and they demand these things be taken care of.
I see these posts where they're like, what a cold and callous system capitalism is that, you know, tells people you have to work to survive.
And I'm like, okay, have you ever gone camping?
adam crigler
Have you ever lived out in the woods by yourself without society propping you up?
tim pool
Nope.
adam crigler
Without a toilet?
Without water?
Running water?
tim pool
So here's the problem.
We're seeing a clash.
I think a big reason we're seeing a rise of socialists and communists, college being one factor, and not just about indoctrination, about the fact that they're all in massive debt and they don't see a way out, so they just want the government to bail them out.
But I think we're seeing a clash now, as you're having, you know, it's easier and easier to produce basic necessities for people, and so we're getting more and more people who are demanding it, but people still have to work.
And therein lies the big problem with these communists.
It's mind-blowing to me, when I try to have these conversations about universal healthcare, and I'm like, okay, personally, I'm totally for it.
The problem is, We literally can't have universal healthcare.
It's physically impossible because some treatments are extremely scarce and may only be available to like a hundred people.
adam crigler
And be millions of dollars for that one treatment.
tim pool
I hate the pharmaceutical companies.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
I think EpiPens and insulin cost way too much.
I think one thing we can do is base coverage, basic care, like things like insulin, things like EpiPens, things like you break your hand, you can go in.
These things make sense to me.
It would still be very expensive.
But it's mind-blowing when I have arguments or conversations with people about universal healthcare, and I'm like, what if there's a cure for something, but it's extremely difficult to produce, and it requires a specialist who's very expensive?
How do we get that to every person?
The reality is, you can't.
So what happens is, the rich person buys it, and the poor person doesn't.
And they're like, no, that's ridiculous.
We shouldn't let people die because they're poor.
Okay, if you have a thousand people who have a disease, and only 100 cures, you quite literally can't cure them all.
So what ends up happening now with these far leftists is they're living in a world where there's infinite food, medicine can cure literally any disease, therefore the government should just give it to everybody.
Oh, and it's all infinite.
They believe we're already in a post-scarcity reality.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's totally wrong.
tim pool
Well, this is the clash we're facing now, and that's one of the reasons why they're rioting.
They live in a fairytale world where they think everything is for them.
adam crigler
Well, they got the thing about the parents that they probably have that have just been like, I'm going to make life as easy as possible for you.
And life will always be easy.
Don't worry.
I'm going to give you everything.
How dare you, teacher?
You didn't teach my son or daughter or they to do, to be great.
tim pool
I just realized something interesting.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
These Antiva people, it's a crowd of Marie Antoinettes.
So the idea, let them eat cake, was there was a famine, people were starving, and she was like, if they're starving, then why don't they have cake?
And I don't know a whole lot of, you know, it's a bit apocryphal, I suppose.
The general idea is she was saying, like, give them bread.
There's, like, literally no food, they're starving.
And she was like, I don't understand, because she was rich and snooty, you know, wealthy, privileged, and all that stuff.
adam crigler
Or ignorant, really.
tim pool
Right, right.
But in her privilege, wealth, the real privilege, She always had food.
So she was like, I don't understand why they're upset.
Just let them have cake, you know?
And so I don't know if she actually said it.
Some people say she didn't.
But the point is, you have all of these Antifa people going around smashing things saying, give everyone cake.
And it's like, we can't.
It's not possible.
adam crigler
We deserve cake.
We want the cake.
tim pool
You know what really, really bugs me too?
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
I see all these memes all the time talking about free everything.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
One of them I saw.
So we talk about universal health care.
One of the things I saw was, it was a post where it was like, Jimmy Neutron or something, it's a stupid meme.
And it was like, did you know that we have this many million empty homes and only this many thousands of homeless people?
We could quite literally put homeless people in homes.
And I'm like, said like somebody who truly has never owned a property.
You can't just take a homeless person who's homeless for a variety of reasons, including mental health issues, put them in a vacant property and then walk away.
You're literally sweeping the problem under the rug, the person's not going to have food, they're not going to pay their utility bills, the walls are going to fall apart, the house is going to collapse, they're going to die, and then it's going to spread to other houses and destroy everything.
And then I get these responses from these lefties where they're like, you're so dumb, you don't even understand, like there's literally a house.
adam crigler
And I was like, whoa, did you not listen to what I just said?
I was like, it's not going to give them a job.
It's not going to give them ambition to further their life.
You got to also think about the mental state of these people.
Some people don't want to work.
Some people don't care enough to, to want to further themselves.
So how do you help somebody like that?
You give them, you give them something.
Then all of a sudden, then they think they're entitled to that.
And then they work even less.
tim pool
This is what all of these people, they don't get.
There is no way that you can have this world where they sit back and just read a book all day and everything's taken care of for them.
We are in a constant state of entropy.
When you leave a house alone, it starts falling apart.
This is why these companies hire caretakers.
So they're there, they can look at the rooms, they can clean things up because eventually it gets moldy, it falls apart, a pipe will burst.
They had a big problem in Chicago with pipes freezing.
So vacant properties have this problem.
The pipe will freeze, it'll burst, and then all of a sudden the place floods.
So they do want people inside.
But if you take a homeless person, and you just put him in a house, and you don't address why the homelessness exists, this is the ten-year-old mentality so many of these people have.
Just put a homeless person in a house!
It's like, great!
Then a pipe bursts in the winter in one of the rooms of the house where they're not paying attention, they don't care, and so it starts ripping apart the walls, mold gets in, critters get in, and the house starts collapsing.
Now you got this guy who doesn't know how to maintain a house, isn't working, doesn't have food, and then the house falls on him.
adam crigler
And can't afford even to fix the house, even if he did notice.
tim pool
Exactly.
adam crigler
Because he doesn't have a job.
tim pool
So then what ends up happening is you get the government involved, and they start subsidizing production and development and all these things.
And so I'm talking to these people and I say, just look at the housing projects they've tried throughout the past century.
And they're like, so dumb.
Of course those didn't work, but this time it will.
lydia smith
Oh yeah.
tim pool
And I'm like, and there it is.
That wasn't real project housing.
This next one will surely be.
lydia smith
My idea.
adam crigler
The welfare system just hasn't been perfected yet.
lydia smith
Absolutely.
adam crigler
No, some people just don't want to do the work.
Some people are lazy.
That's just going to exist in this world.
tim pool
We need to explain to people what entropy is.
Basically, let me give you the simple explanation of life for all of you.
Casey Neistat made this video.
It was really great.
It was based on someone's quote.
I don't know who the quote is, so I'll just reference Casey Neistat.
it. Okay. Life is a treadmill. If you just walk, you stay where you are. If you stand still, you move
backwards. In order to get ahead, you have to run. I like it. The idea is if you just sit in a house
and just go about your business, The house falls apart.
You have to keep working because things are slowly breaking apart.
adam crigler
Entropy.
tim pool
Entropy.
Yeah.
That's a simple way to put it.
So they have these ideas.
They're so childish.
I've done research.
I know exactly what we can pull off.
And it's like, there was a family in Louisiana that filed a lawsuit against the state because there was a cure for a genetic disease that cost $4 million.
Something like that.
And the family said the state should pay for it.
And they were like, there's no way we're paying $4 million for this treatment.
Because it was extremely difficult and rare and high cost treatment.
The way I put it to people is, they seem to think that medical technology has completely reached its climax.
There's nothing else to cure.
We've mastered all diseases.
Nobody dies anymore.
That's what they think.
And so I put it this way, listen.
Do you think every person should be allowed to have the newest iPhone?
Do you think we should have universal iPhones?
unidentified
Nope.
tim pool
$1,000 for every single person.
Yeah, because we have Android phones, and they're like $20.
And so we actually can provide cheap, low-cost phones to people so they can have access to the internet.
But what these people don't realize is that all of the work and energy and labor that goes into producing the newest generation of technology, regardless of what it is, is rare, it's expensive, and not everybody will get it.
Same thing is true for healthcare technology as it is for cell phone technology.
adam crigler
Nailed it.
tim pool
So as capitalism, hey, slowly improves, mass production emerges, new treatments become old treatments and we figure out how to do them better and better and better, that trickles down.
It's not triggered on economics.
It's literally the more technology we have, the more we learn how to mass produce, the better we get at things, the more everyone can have them.
My stars and garters, we have people in this country who are living in poverty, but they have air conditioners and refrigerators.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Something that, you know, rich people didn't have over a hundred years ago.
adam crigler
And toilets.
unidentified
Oh yeah.
adam crigler
A sewer system.
tim pool
Clean running water.
lydia smith
Shower.
tim pool
So I'll tell you what.
The greatest system to lift people out of poverty is just capitalism.
Now, I'm a big fan of the mixed market.
We have some public-funded programs.
I think we need to definitely overhaul a lot of them.
adam crigler
I think even greater is just self-empowerment and doing that and following through.
If you believe in yourself and you work on improving yourself and not care what others think, and you just go, and what can I do to further myself?
And you do that every single day, guaranteed you will get out of whatever situation you're in.
tim pool
It's about running on that treadmill.
You slowly go forward, right?
adam crigler
Yep, exactly.
tim pool
But too many people don't want to.
And it's remarkable, and I think we have done something wrong as a society.
When someone posts a meme that says, we shouldn't have to work to live, and then all these people start sharing it, and it's like, man, I really wish we could give these people the experience of being by yourself in the woods.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
They're so pampered and so elitist that they deserve things more so than other people.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
That's what they think.
Now, they'll say, everybody should have, you know, clean food.
Who makes the food?
Well, somebody has to make it, but I mean, somebody has to grow the food no matter what.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
This communist utopia is, what they don't realize, they're literally talking about slavery.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
And I'm not even exaggerating.
adam crigler
No, you're absolutely right.
Yep.
tim pool
When they say universal healthcare, what they're really saying is the government should force doctors to serve me without compensation.
adam crigler
Nailed it, dude.
tim pool
Now, of course, what they'll say is something like, no, I think they should be paid, the government should pay them.
I was talking to another lefty and I said, you know, okay, well, like, do we just tax people for it?
And they said the government should just print money.
Deficit spending is the key.
And I'm like, that means you're just literally extracting the value from everyone else by inflating the currency.
And they're like, it works.
And I'm like, In what world are you living in?
But it means that people can't retire.
It means the money you save is worthless and it's already bad enough that the system does, if inflation does make your savings worthless.
That's why they have interest rates and savings accounts and stuff like that.
They don't, they don't, they don't know or care.
You know, even when in 2016, when I was a big fan of Bernie, I wasn't as far left, but Bernie seemed genuine, right?
And I was talking to a bunch of these lefties when they say things like healthcare is a human right.
And I was like, let me, let me ask you something.
Go into the middle of the woods, alright?
And then, once you stub your toe, demand your human right.
Is anybody gonna come and a doctor will just teleport in front of you and be like, now I'll use my magic doctor powers!
unidentified
Bling!
tim pool
Your foot is healed.
No, there's nobody.
You can scream and cry all you want, all that's gonna happen is a bear is gonna find you.
Actually, the bear would probably run away if you're yelling, to be honest.
Yeah.
adam crigler
Depends on the bear, actually.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they might get curious.
What's that noise?
Well, now you're being eaten.
adam crigler
You smell delicious.
tim pool
I'll tell you what your human rights are.
It's, you're in the middle of the woods and you're naked, and you have a right to defend yourself, you have a right to move around, you have a right to speak, you have a right to survive.
But nobody's gonna provide you healthcare.
Nobody's gonna bring food to you.
You have to do these things yourself.
I would absolutely love to live in a Star Trek-type post-scarcity future with replicators, where we can give everybody everything, and we got, like, have you seen Elysium?
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
When they just, that's what these people think.
adam crigler
It is.
They are living in this utopian fantasy world that they've pieced together from all these different sci-fi movies and, you know, anything you can think of.
Books they've read.
They're piecing it all together and that is their new reality.
And they get angry at other people that go, that's not reality.
Sorry.
No, that isn't what life is like.
And they're like, how dare you?
tim pool
You bigot.
adam crigler
You racist.
I'm offended now, and I should be given everything that I'm entitled to.
It's like, you gotta earn it.
You gotta work for it.
You gotta realize what reality is versus your fantasy land.
tim pool
I posted a tweet that was an offshoot of this famous quote.
Only when the last tree has died, and the last river has been poisoned, and the last fish has been caught, will we realize we cannot eat money.
And all of these lefties like to go like, well, and they all cheer and clap.
And I made a similar point that only after every farm has been shut down, the dairy has
spoiled, and the foods are empty from the shelves, will these people realize they can't
eat money.
The point I was making is that with this lockdown, how they're shutting down the economies, they're
threatening people, they're suspending civil rights, eventually there won't be anything
And they're like, just keep printing money, it's so obvious.
And it's like, and then because the dairy is being dumped out into the streets, and they're like, it's only being dumped out because nobody's buying it.
Yes, but it's because the bottling plant isn't running.
It's not just like the milk goes straight to you.
It goes through, you know, homogenization and pasteurization, the bottling plants, the distributors, the warehouses, and then finally the stores.
adam crigler
And all of those jobs are people that do those jobs because they pay.
tim pool
And so when the store gets shut down, when the restaurant gets shut down, there is no one to pay for any of it.
Now there have been some pushes in the first lockdown to figure out how to deliver vegetables and fruits and foods and meats directly from the farmers to certain, you know, facilities and food banks and stuff like that.
That has been improved upon.
But what they don't realize is that if a restaurant can't open, and they're starting to shut everything down again, then they won't buy the milk, so the people who bottle and distribute the milk won't pay for the bottling service, or they won't pay for the service previous, the homogenization, the pasteurization, they'll stop ordering, and then eventually the farm dumps the milk out.
adam crigler
And that is just one example of one food product, let alone all of the countless things that everyone's used to having for dinner, you know, to eat food.
And that's just one, another one thing, food.
Then you think about all the rest of the commodities that everyone's used to.
I mean, obviously food is one of the most important things because we got to eat to live.
So it's pretty, pretty important to maintain.
tim pool
It's a giant machine and we've stripped the gears off of it because of COVID.
Now, mind you.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Mostly the Democrats, to be honest.
Trump was opposed to the lockdowns.
A lot of the Republican- the Sunbelt states, a lot of Republican states didn't lock down.
Sweden didn't lock down.
Sweden's leftier than the leftists here.
adam crigler
And they're doing fine.
lydia smith
I was thinking about this too.
So you're talking about the gears being stripped from this machine.
So you're giving people a lot of lubricant.
You're giving them a lot of grease, which is money.
So you're giving them the means to buy stuff, but the stuff is not there.
And this is something that we've argued with people about before.
Like, how are you supposed to spend money on milk that is not on the shelves?
Are you supposed to buy food that isn't there?
Are you supposed to buy services that are no longer being offered?
What's the point?
adam crigler
Just keep printing money.
lydia smith
Yeah, works great.
adam crigler
Just print money and then we can go to the store and buy the stuff.
tim pool
And now gold is skyrocketing.
adam crigler
Yep.
Silver.
tim pool
Yeah, gold, silver, metals, you know, stocks.
It seems like people are getting scared of the dollar.
And I don't blame them.
I'm willing to bet that just before the election, this is my personal opinion.
Mind you, I do have some gold.
I'm not saying this for any reason other than just what I think is going to happen.
I think we're going to see a lot of different commodities skyrocket because people are going to jump off the dollar.
That's my personal opinion.
adam crigler
I agree with you.
tim pool
So, I bought silver.
I bought gold.
That's what I think is gonna happen.
I don't know what your... I don't know what would make it come back down.
You know?
Even if... Because we're gonna see nothing but uncertainty.
adam crigler
I know, but Trump's gonna win.
This fall.
And he's gonna... The economy's gonna bounce back.
A lot of businesses need to be rebuilt.
So, construction businesses are gonna go through the roof over the next year.
Because...
I mean, how many buildings have been ravaged by this, the rioting across this country?
You know?
tim pool
Have you ever seen a dead mall?
adam crigler
I have, many times.
tim pool
You know what causes them to die out?
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
So, once there's a certain number of stores that have closed, then people start saying, oh, let's not go to that mall, there's a bunch of, you know, they don't really have that much.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Now there's no foot traffic, no impulse buying.
So a mall with only half capacity struggles to survive because people don't want to go there.
adam crigler
I don't like malls anyway.
I think they should be converted into indoor garden communities.
tim pool
Right, right, right.
But the point is, when a mall is full, people say, let's go to the mall because you can browse and look for things and you get ideas for things you didn't want.
adam crigler
And social interaction also comes into play.
tim pool
The food court, it's an event.
And all of these businesses benefit each other.
So that's why there are stores that literally just sell baseball caps.
Because in a mall, it works.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Someone goes, I'm gonna buy shoes, they walk around, ooh, I'm gonna get a hat while I'm here.
A hat store wouldn't work just like sitting off in like, you know, a street corner.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
What ends up happening is, once there's no other stores, nobody's like, yo, I gotta go get a baseball cap, let's go to the mall.
It's the only store there.
That's like a weird thing to say.
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
So then, finally, these stores leave.
The mall becomes unappealing and it causes the whole thing to collapse because then other businesses struggle and they leave and that's what's happening in New York right now.
adam crigler
And enter the internet and people just shop online anyway.
tim pool
So this, I'll tell you what man, this year may be the end of physical shopping and I'm not kidding.
adam crigler
No, I agree with you.
tim pool
And that means Amazon stock is gonna go through the roof.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
It's gonna go nuts.
adam crigler
Well then you think about what social media and how we've talked about that many times about how that's the new Town square and it should be protected free speech in the town square needs to be upheld You know Twitter is and Facebook are these are these places that people are now coming together Instead of going to the mall and and like hey, let's all meet at the mall and hang out We don't even need to shop.
We can just walk around looking at stuff and you know, whatever We'll go it's a game stop check out some games get some food, but hang out together go to the arcade maybe and That's not happening anymore.
Now people are just going on Facebook.
People aren't talking to their grandmas anymore.
They're just seeing what their grandma's doing on Facebook.
Sending them a message.
Hey grandma, love you.
tim pool
Let me tell you.
The Democrats have shown us that they do not believe in human rights.
I'm not exaggerating.
adam crigler
I agree with you.
tim pool
We're seeing it now in Los Angeles with Mayor Garcetti straight up saying, we will take away your water If you try to uphold your First Amendment right to peaceably assemble.
adam crigler
This is insane.
tim pool
DWP authorized to cut utilities at party homes, Mayor announces.
Sure.
The First Amendment says peaceably assemble.
It doesn't say for what reason.
You have a right to have a gathering.
End of story.
In the Constitution.
This.
They're not even talking about locking up.
Did you know that people who go to jail get water?
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
You go to jail, you get water.
You go to jail, there's electric lights.
Yeah.
And depending on where you go, I mean you have TVs, you can watch TV, you'll have electricity in prison.
You'll actually have access to medical care.
But if you defy Mayor Garcetti, he will take water away from you.
Now I understand electricity too.
Think about this.
What happens if somebody's having a party and they have insulin in their refrigerator and he cuts their power off?
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
They're gonna die.
People need to understand this, especially about power outages and cutting off utilities, is that there are some people who literally need it in the immediate to survive.
Insulin needs to be refrigerated.
lydia smith
Oxygen.
tim pool
Oxygen.
Yep.
You cut off the power to somebody because they're partying and they got Gramp upstairs on an oxygen tank.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
He dead.
lydia smith
Bye.
tim pool
This is an insane threat to violate human rights.
adam crigler
Someone just said welcome to China-fornia.
tim pool
China-fornia.
adam crigler
China-fornia.
Thanks chat.
tim pool
Let me show you this tweet.
I said, welcome to the world you created.
It is everything you asked for and everything we warned would happen.
Twitter is now locking the accounts of people fact-checking Trump.
And of course, you can see Aaron Ruppar.
He's been blocked.
Twitter shut him down because he was trying to fact-check the president.
You've got this guy, Bobby Lewis, and you've got this woman, Liz Power.
These people are all complaining that Twitter has forced them to delete their own tweets because they were saying things that Twitter didn't like.
adam crigler
Huh.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
But on the other side?
tim pool
On the left.
Oh, this happens to the left all the time.
adam crigler
Okay, okay.
tim pool
If there is any particular group of people that lacks the ability to learn, it is leftists who continually ask for censorship because invariably they're the ones who get censored.
I mean, it's the same thing with Second Amendment.
How insane would you have to be right now to be like, we demand that the government seize, you know, national gun control, seize all the weapons.
And Donald Trump is a fascist.
unidentified
What?
tim pool
Are you out of your mind?
I am starting to see more lefties say that, though, and I'm like, thank you.
There was a funny post.
adam crigler
It's refreshing, isn't it?
tim pool
Well, somebody posted a meme on Facebook I saw, and it said like, you know, we need national gun control.
The rest of the world looks like idiots.
It's time to confiscate, you know, high powered weapons and weapons of war.
And the first comment was from a guy who was like, I'm really far left, but I've been thinking about this.
And I mean, Trump's a fascist.
I don't think we should have him take our guns away.
I'm like, hey, they're starting to realize it.
But the reason I bring this up is, what they're doing in L.A.
is, my mind was blown when I heard this story, it is above and beyond violating human rights to take away their clean water.
adam crigler
Yeah it is, I agree completely.
tim pool
Because there are even laws, I'm curious, I don't know if California has this law, but I think Arizona does, if you go to a store and you say, can I have water, they have to give it to you, right?
I mean, so that's, there's a lot of places like that for a lot of reasons.
adam crigler
Yeah.
And in the South Arizona, because it gets so hot there that people could die from dehydration very easily.
So if someone walks in and says, can I please have some water?
It's, it's illegal to say no.
tim pool
Now, many people will say the mayor is just threatening it.
Oh, is that an argument?
He's just threatening to take away people's civil rights.
adam crigler
Oh, sure.
tim pool
I'm sorry, human rights.
lydia smith
This is what my friend... I had a friend who was messaging me the other night.
She's like, cars are driving around.
They're checking people's houses.
I was like, are you serious?
tim pool
They're checking their houses?
unidentified
In L.A.?
lydia smith
In L.A., yeah.
She's over in California.
adam crigler
Wow.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
What, like the cops are going to people's homes?
I had to double check, but yeah, she said cars are driving and making sure that people... Why would anyone in their right mind want to live in California at this point?
New York and California have become... It's despotism.
adam crigler
It's like they're fighting to be the best authoritarian state now.
lydia smith
Raise to the bottom.
adam crigler
Who can be more authoritarian?
tim pool
This is a crazy story, man.
He says, you're breaking the law.
You know what scares me more than this?
adam crigler
It's not a law.
It's a mandate.
tim pool
What scares me is this guy right here, behind him.
Who is this guy?
adam crigler
I have no idea.
tim pool
He's wearing a badge.
adam crigler
Yeah, a badge, but it doesn't look like he is an officer.
It's like he's a private security guy with a badge on his chest.
tim pool
No, he's got the black bar which represents a fallen officer.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
He looks like he's a cop.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
Maybe he's not, I don't know, but it's not even about that.
The mayor said that he had authorized the Department of Water and Power to cut utilities within 48 hours after parties were confirmed by the LAPD.
You're breaking the law.
adam crigler
That's so crazy.
tim pool
What law?
First Amendment says I can peaceably assemble.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Period.
adam crigler
Period.
tim pool
Supreme Court ruled that in Nevada, churches couldn't be over a certain capacity, so they did that church- Evangelicals held a church ceremony event at a casino.
unidentified
Mm-hmm or that video today in a Walmart Walmart.
adam crigler
They were singing in a Walmart.
It was amazing Just just hearing it.
Honestly, I'm not religious but it lifted me up hearing the the joy and the Reverence of what they were they were doing.
I mean they were they were basically saying to the man F you We're gonna join up together.
tim pool
Oh, yeah, check this out It's from Post Millennial.
adam crigler
So it says, uh, barred from attending church, Christians held worship service at a Walmart and they were singing and man, was it, was it good to hear?
tim pool
How long will people sit back and accept something like this?
So, I'll tell you what, man.
Stay out of California.
I'm not even kidding.
No joke.
And I know there's probably a lot of you watching who live there.
I think... Listen, man.
First, they came for.
We understand where this goes.
If the mayor of your town is threatening to strip you of human rights and no one opposes him, how long... I mean, I'm... How long until they just walk up and they just disappear you?
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
If they have this much disdain for human rights, they think they're entitled to do this.
We've crossed the Rubicon in this, man.
There's no turning back.
The mayor has straight up said this.
He should be removed immediately.
Now, impeached, whatever, they complain about Donald Trump tweeting.
I kid you not, CNN, they're like, the president is showing his fascistic tendencies again by saying, maybe we should postpone an election due to mail-in voter problems.
It's like, Trump tweeted about postponing the election?
You say, no.
End of story.
adam crigler
There you go.
Yeah.
tim pool
And Congress says, that's up to us, and maybe he can have some national security, you know, directive.
But no, I'm sorry.
The Trump tweeting... The Trump.
The president tweeting things doesn't concern me at all.
lydia smith
The Donald.
tim pool
When the mayor of LA holds a press conference and says, within 48 hours of you having a legal assembly, you're breaking the law, and we will take away your water.
I understand taking away your power, too.
adam crigler
Can you imagine, like, from, say, last year, 2019, you're like, I'm gonna plan my wedding in this beautiful place in California.
You know, somewhere, maybe in my friend's house in L.A.
tim pool
Napa Valley?
adam crigler
Napa Valley, wherever.
tim pool
It's a wine.
adam crigler
I'm gonna have all my friends and family in August.
August in L.A.
Yeah, nope.
Mm-mm.
I'm gonna shut your power off.
tim pool
You're gonna shut off your power?
adam crigler
Yep.
You're breaking the law.
tim pool
Look, man, in New Jersey, they've been arresting people who are having parties.
Constitutionally protected.
You're allowed to assemble for any reason.
Well, literally not any reason, but... Peaceable.
Peaceable assembly.
I mean, like, I'm sure if you're assembling to commit some kind of crime... That would not be peaceful, right?
Right.
They'd probably come in and be like, you're committing a crime.
So he's telling people they're breaking their law.
unidentified
Why?
tim pool
Because they're hanging out together.
Above and beyond, man.
So I'm inspired by this story from Post Millennial.
That people are resilient, so they were singing in a Walmart.
adam crigler
That's awesome.
tim pool
That's crazy, man.
You know what's really crazy is Michael Tracy, journalist, tweeted this.
He's in some small town or something, and the people there told him they didn't wear masks until Walmart mandated masks.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Isn't that interesting?
It only was.
Wow.
That's great.
adam crigler
So like once they man it people are like okay fine I guess the great thing is they were social distancing you
can see that they were spread out in the videos I mean you can't really see very well, but I mean you could
see that they're spreading out It's great, but they they went around the store and just
they were singing it was awesome good When
unidentified
Thank you, I said big dummy me out I never Wow, man, thank you very much
tim pool
There's only so much you can actually do to try and shut down people's spirit, their faith.
That's why I'm curious, at what point will someone intervene?
So this is just Los Angeles, and this is what scares me about any place that is dominated by one party.
Los Angeles has had a Democratic supermajority for a very, very long time, and they've not been able to solve any of their problems.
They've got a serious NIMBY mentality for a lot of the people in downtown L.A.
One of the worst homeless problems in the country.
And all of these Democrats together could not solve it.
Whenever they try and talk about, you know, building housing or affordable housing, it just falls apart.
You look at Chicago, you look at New York, the exact same thing.
You know what the craziest thing is with New York?
Now, I want to make sure I stress the psychosis of the violation of human rights.
Bill de Blasio basically mocked rich people.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
Yeah, so Cuomo was like, please come back.
Please.
And then, you know, he's like, I'll buy you a drink.
So it's, I don't know if this is true.
Actually, could you look this up?
That 1%, the top 1% pays 50% of the taxes in New York City.
adam crigler
I have heard that.
tim pool
So I've heard it.
I don't know if it's true.
But Bill de Blasio was like, yeah, they're fair weather friends.
I should raise their taxes more.
Oh my god.
And I'm like, now you're going to lose more money.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
You're taxed.
So we talked about this, how Trump brought all these rich people in.
adam crigler
Yeah, in the early 80s.
Started spending mad tax money, which- Trump basically redefined what New York was.
All that money that he brought in in the early 80s changed.
The crime rate was dropping over a decade after that.
It's pretty incredible.
Once you really look into the history of what New York was in the 70s versus the 80s, it's a big difference.
lydia smith
I'm going to read this short little blurb from the New York Post from a few years ago.
It says, New York City's 1% are paying a much larger share of the city's income tax than the wealthiest 1% nationally are coughing up to Washington.
tim pool
Interesting, but you know what the numbers are?
lydia smith
The Big Apple's top 35,400 filers, those with incomes of $598,000 or more, accounted for
45.7% of the $7.2 billion in income taxes that New York City collected.
adam crigler
Wow.
45%.
tim pool
Well, they're all gone.
They're all leaving.
This is the thing, man.
So, the reason I brought up that mall scenario before.
New York City is basically experiencing that.
adam crigler
One big mall.
You're right.
Wow.
tim pool
Yeah.
Nailed it.
So, think about it.
When someone goes to, like, Soho.
What does Soho stand for?
adam crigler
Do you know?
South of Houston.
tim pool
South of Houston.
There you go.
So, this is an area.
They've got a bunch of boutique shops.
The van store was over there, I'm pretty sure.
unidentified
Was it?
tim pool
I think it was South of Houston.
adam crigler
I don't remember where the van store is.
tim pool
Anyway, here's the point.
adam crigler
NoHo.
tim pool
NoHo?
Yeah, North of Houston?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
tim pool
You have all these businesses.
And so we would walk down and look in the windows and be like, oh, that's cool.
Let's go in here.
Oh, it's the van store.
I'll buy some skate gear.
You walk out, you walk down the street, oh, there's Best Buy.
So you're basically window shopping like it's a big shopping district.
That's a good point, yeah.
Now that all these businesses were just ripped to shreds and just burnt to the ground figuratively by the riots, And shut down by COVID, what are you going to walk around for?
So now, here's what's happening.
I believe it is fair to say that Bill de Blasio is burning New York City to the ground, and it seems intentional.
And I'll tell you why.
adam crigler
It really does.
tim pool
He's mocking the rich people as they flee, while Cuomo's begging them to come back, and even Cuomo's not doing the best job in the world.
De Blasio is setting up checkpoints and a 14-day quarantine and $10,000 fines.
Do you know what that does?
unidentified
What?
tim pool
It makes sure no tourist will come to the city until that's over.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
And tourism accounted for billions in revenue.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Like daily.
adam crigler
Billions, yep.
tim pool
So now you've got no tourists, So there's no sales revenue, there's no money being brought into the city.
This is the thing about tourism.
This is why everybody loves it.
You get some dude from, I don't know, Columbus, Ohio.
He decides to visit New York.
He brings with him a bunch of money, and he goes and he buys little statues of the Statue of Liberty, little models of it, some American flags.
adam crigler
Buys an MTA pass, buys Food, you know, goes to the theater, hotel, everything.
tim pool
That money was generated in Columbus, brought to New York, and dispersed in New York, bolstering the New York economy.
That's why tourism—I mean, people know how tourism works.
Bill de Blasio said, hmm, how can we stop this money from coming in?
Checkpoints and a two-week quarantine.
lydia smith
Why is he doing that?
tim pool
Now we know for a fact you're here, and if you come out of your apartment, house, or hotel within two weeks, $10,000 fine.
Maybe he's hoping he's gonna start capturing what few tourists are left and fining them $10,000.
Oh my goodness.
Or, in all reality, people aren't walking around and shopping anymore.
adam crigler
Nope.
tim pool
They're not going to be coming into the city.
There's going to be zero tourism.
And now he's mocking the rich people as they flee.
adam crigler
When you say he's mocking them, give me an example because I haven't heard this yet.
What is he saying?
tim pool
He called them fair-weather friends.
adam crigler
Oh my goodness.
tim pool
He called them fair-weather friends and he said he should raise their taxes.
Cuomo said the opposite.
He says, come on, I'll buy you a drink.
Come back.
adam crigler
There's no way they're going to come back because they're finding a new spot, realizing they're making so much more money because they don't have to pay as much taxes in these other places.
And those other places are probably like, we love your taxes that you're giving us.
You're bolstering our community now.
tim pool
Yes, absolutely.
But it's also just like the disrespect and abuse from the city.
Yeah, of course.
adam crigler
Look at what happened with Flint, Michigan with their water.
How everyone had to pay more and more for the water and then they couldn't even afford water anymore.
tim pool
That's what I'm saying with this mall analogy.
Yeah, so as long as more and more people leave New York City
Then there's less of a reason for anyone to be there It is a massive mall essentially the incentive to be in New
York is because you're around other people doing jobs Because you can find a job and because there's constant
opportunity a lot of people and your friends your friends are gone
You can't make money. You're locked in your apartment.
There's no more tourism There's nothing to sell the stores are all destroyed by the
riots and then Bill de Blasio is laughing at the people who are fleeing and
Have the means to do so leaving behind poor people who have no money to spend can't get out of the city while he laughs
the whole way Meanwhile, Bill de Blasio, it's reported, makes $9,000 a month in rental income.
As he mocks these people fleeing, he's fine.
He's totally fine.
So I'll tell you what.
The rich people in New York are going, wow, this Bill de Blasio fellow sure is nuts.
I'm leaving.
And they hop on their little private planes or whatever.
I mean, someone making 600K doesn't have a private plane, probably.
Maybe they rent a helicopter to fly them out of the city.
Then they go spend some time upstate.
They go spend some time in Connecticut, in Maine, in Boston, or they go West Coast.
They go to Montana.
They go down to Virginia, whatever.
The point is, they're gone.
adam crigler
They're leaving New York.
tim pool
The poor people can't do that.
The people in Brooklyn, in Central Brooklyn, Bed-Stuy, in these areas who live in these tiny apartments, they can't just up and leave.
So the whole city is being destroyed by the failures of this mayor, this Democratic mayor and the Democratic governor, and the poor people are suffering the most.
adam crigler
And crime is skyrocketing because he's defunding the police, taking the crime units out of these places that needed them, that are actually begging for them to come back.
Like, please bring the police back.
People are being shot and killed nonstop.
It's been happening.
tim pool
They're facing a $30 billion deficit over two years.
They're demanding federal intervention, otherwise they're going to lay off 22,000 people, and I don't think Trump's going to do it.
He's going to be like, he already told them no the one time.
Now we're going to see the government lay off 22,000 people.
The police reassign 600 cops, soon they're going to start firing people, and it's going to go way back to the way things used to be.
Violent crime, rampant crime, but maybe even worse, I don't understand how New York could function if it collapsed to a certain degree.
Listen, If you have a water system as big as New York City, I can't imagine how much it costs to maintain that whole water system.
Ridiculous sums of money.
adam crigler
Yeah, you're right.
tim pool
Buildings, all that stuff.
Now what happens if everybody leaves and there's no one to pay the bills for it anymore?
The people left see all of their water bills go way up.
lydia smith
They have to.
tim pool
Now all of a sudden no one can afford to pay the water bill, like Flint, like Detroit, and the city becomes basically uninhabitable.
What's gonna happen to New York?
Are people, everyone in the city is going to leave until there's only like a million people left in a metro that used to have 12 or 13?
adam crigler
I got to watch Escape from New York again because, I mean, that seems to be the future.
I mean, I don't wish this upon New York.
I love, I grew up in New York as I became an adult.
I moved there when I was 19 and lived there till I was, I don't know, 30 something, 34 when I left.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Bill de Blasio has burnt that city to the ground.
adam crigler
Yes, he has.
tim pool
I mean, there's been bad mayors.
You know, Bloomberg was really dumb.
That guy was, like, taxing soda.
He's like, you know, people are so stupid.
Mike Bloomberg actually argued for a poor tax.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
He said, tax the poor because they're not smart enough to know what's good for them.
adam crigler
He said those words.
tim pool
I'm paraphrasing.
adam crigler
Oh my goodness.
tim pool
Yeah.
He said the issue is poor people will buy a bunch of soda and then get unhealthy and fat.
lydia smith
And we have to pay for it.
tim pool
And then we have to pay for it.
So how about we tax them so they can't buy it and then they'll have health care and they'll be better off.
adam crigler
That's kind of evil.
They're not even thinking about the fact that they've created these food deserts where they have no choice but to go to McDonald's because there's no other places.
Everything else is a little bodega that has barely anything.
tim pool
The bodegas have just like, you know, noodles and stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah, but they're not cooking stuff.
They're going to a bodega to get a sandwich.
And that's what they're living on.
You know, get a soda and a sandwich.
And it's like, that's not healthy either.
tim pool
That was my life when I was living in Williamsburg.
adam crigler
Me too, for me.
tim pool
For Vice.
Wake up in the morning, get ready to go to work.
I go to a bodega and they give me a man.
As much as I love a nice bodega sandwich, I gotta admit, they're like low-quality.
It's low-quality food, man.
You know, some American cheese on a Kaiser bun with some meat.
Now, they used boar's head.
Boar's head's legit.
But those buns were not all that good.
adam crigler
Processed meat in general is not good for you.
tim pool
I'll tell you what.
adam crigler
Boar's head included.
tim pool
I mean, I'm saying it's not like some trash, you know, it's like, it's low quality stuff.
That's the point.
Bowers Head is not that bad.
But the point is, I don't, the face of this country, the shape of this country is going to be so dramatically different.
You know, now you got Bill, I think it was, was it Bill de Blasio complaining about census?
lydia smith
Yes.
Oh yeah, only 58% has been filled out.
tim pool
That means they're going to lose two electoral votes.
adam crigler
I saw that.
tim pool
Two electoral votes?
adam crigler
That's good.
The Democrats have got to be scared.
Obviously, from what we have learned about what Trump said, that he's got all these enemies, that he's going to go away for a little bit.
You're not going to see him for a little while.
I think it's because these people know Trump's going to win.
They're looking at the American public and the American public is just going like this, like, we are going to vote for Trump because we see you.
Everyone is aware.
The Great Awakening is what they keep sharing, you know, and it's like, I see it too.
I'm a part of it myself.
tim pool
And now that we learned that the journalist bubble is worse now than it was in 2016.
So for those that didn't see this the other day, it was a university at Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, I think that's what it's called.
And they said that The Beltway bubble, the DC Politico reporters, are more isolated than they were last time, and they were expecting to see the inverse.
So everybody wondered, why did they get everything wrong in the last election?
And now it's because they were just following each other, and they were completely out of touch with America.
So the New York Times did this famous thing where they sent a guy around the country to talk to middle America and be like, what did we not understand?
And now apparently it's worse than it was before.
It's worse.
So all these political stories you're seeing where it's like Trump finally admits it, he's losing.
It's probably just bunk.
adam crigler
It totally is bunk.
He's gonna win.
Landslide.
tim pool
It's two creepy looking dudes sitting in a bathtub together going, did you hear that Trump is losing?
I think Trump is gonna lose too.
You think he's gonna lose?
He's definitely gonna lose.
Oh, he's so losing.
That's all it is.
adam crigler
What a mental image.
tim pool
I don't want that.
adam crigler
Why?
unidentified
Why Tim?
Come on.
adam crigler
Someone hit the button.
tim pool
I can think of two.
adam crigler
No, no.
Get this image out of my head, please.
No.
tim pool
That's what it is.
They're going back and forth.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
But we'll see, man.
So there was a new NBC News put out their new numbers, and it's like Joe Biden landslide.
That's what they're saying.
No joke.
They're saying Biden's guaranteed like 333 electoral votes solid.
And there's 79 toss ups he might win.
And they're like, Joe Biden might get 400 electoral votes.
They're delusional!
Here's the thing, man.
adam crigler
It sounds like they're suffering from the same thing Biden is.
Dementia.
tim pool
Yes.
I have professional criticisms of Trump.
A lot of the things I complained about in the past, Trump has improved on.
I am not a fan of his demeanor as a president.
But that's about it.
I think he's a funny guy.
Not my choice.
adam crigler
Because he wasn't a politician.
tim pool
But here's the point.
I hate Joe Biden.
That guy is nasty and awful.
adam crigler
Many people should.
tim pool
Did you hear what he said today?
adam crigler
His racism is showing.
tim pool
Oh, man.
Oh, terrible.
adam crigler
For no reason.
My goodness.
tim pool
Did you guys see this today when he was talking on that stupid live streaming and he mentions black people?
And then he like...
adam crigler
Well, they were talking about Cuba.
They were talking about illegal immigration.
And he just started talking about the... I don't remember exactly what words he chose.
Just like the Hispanic community.
tim pool
Here's the point.
adam crigler
And out of left field... For no reason.
He had no need to say this.
He brought it up.
He's like, unlike the black people that are out there, you know, the Hispanic people are very diverse.
And it's like, what?
tim pool
And it was like with, with, with, um, what'd he say?
adam crigler
It was like with some notable exceptions.
Right.
tim pool
I'm like, when I saw that, when I saw that, my goodness.
Joe, why did you just say that?
adam crigler
Why?
tim pool
Why did you literally just inject a comment about the black community when this conversation has nothing to do with them?
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
If you want to say that the Hispanic community in this country is very diverse, I would say that's true.
lydia smith
Absolutely.
unidentified
Done.
tim pool
You've got people from Venezuela.
adam crigler
That's all you had to say.
tim pool
You've got people from Florida, you've got people from Cuba, you've got people from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras.
I had a friend growing up whose family was from Honduras.
They all spoke Spanish and they're all very different in many different ways.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
But for some reason, Joe Biden is like, let me just, you know, inject some comments about the black community for no reason.
adam crigler
It's not a mystery.
It's his filter is filtering away because of his dementia.
You know?
He was, he's said many racist things in his life.
Oh, if you, you dig into Joe Biden, you see racism throughout his entire career.
And now it's like, it's like the level, the racism knob is being turned up and his filters going away because of dementia.
tim pool
That's why they hide him.
adam crigler
Exactly.
lydia smith
I actually used to see this with my patients when I worked in the nursing home and rehab centers, your filter goes away when you pass a certain point.
Dementia makes it, you say whatever is crossing your mind and none of it makes sense.
tim pool
Is it dementia or is it like you're old and you just don't care anymore?
adam crigler
Both.
Both.
lydia smith
Two of those things.
They go hand in hand.
adam crigler
I was talking with many medical people today that were commenting on my post about it.
They're like, this is a telltale sign of dementia because they could even have had a change of heart later on in their life and not be racist anymore.
But then as dementia sets in, it reverts back to an older time that it just kind of I mean, if he ever wasn't racist, because I'm fairly certain that never went away.
tim pool
The crazy thing about what he said, it was first and foremost, why?
adam crigler
Yeah, it had nothing to do with the conversation!
tim pool
He's just like, let me just say something bad about this group of people, and it's not even true!
adam crigler
He's like, I'm just gonna go for a hail Yeah, just a punch, a haymaker right to the face for no reason.
tim pool
Have you noticed his filter moments where Biden will be talking?
He'll be like, listen here, you know, we got to, you know, I'm not going to say that because that would have been bad.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Have you seen those moments?
adam crigler
Multiple times.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
He did it in the same interview.
tim pool
It's because his filter's busted.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And he's struggling to keep it up.
So he's like, you know, I want to make a meme joke, but I'm not going to do it.
adam crigler
Did you just pull a Biden?
tim pool
No, this one because it's gonna get me in trouble on YouTube.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But Biden may as well... I'll say the meme, but I'll stop short of it.
Biden may as well be sitting in a chair and then out of nowhere goes, I'm gonna say it.
I'm gonna... if you know the meme.
adam crigler
I don't.
You know the meme?
I don't.
You gotta tell me.
lydia smith
I gotta look it up.
adam crigler
Show us afterwards.
tim pool
I'm gonna say it.
adam crigler
C.J.
Pearson on Twitter, he posted this video talking about it.
He's a prominent black American and he was just saying, I can't believe all the racism, people aren't getting angry at him.
What is going on?
Then he makes a point.
He goes, if this is what we're seeing in public, what do you think he's saying about us when no one's looking?
tim pool
It's like Hillary's public and private positions thing she mentioned.
adam crigler
Yeah, I'm sure.
tim pool
Back in the 2016 cycle, she said, you gotta have your public position and your private position.
adam crigler
Oh, goodness.
tim pool
Yeah, because she was against gay marriage.
Yeah, dude.
adam crigler
Insane.
tim pool
It's Joe Biden.
The people who are going to vote for him, in my opinion, the people who are reading White Fragility, they're white supremacists.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
With guilty consciences.
adam crigler
That's what it is.
tim pool
It's not a joke.
It's not an exaggeration.
lydia smith
Technically correct.
tim pool
Robin DiAngelo's her name?
lydia smith
Yep, Robin DiAngelo.
tim pool
Writes in the book that she is a racist.
At what point did the liberal, did the left, whatever, start taking their cues from people who are avowed racists?
lydia smith
This is so funny to me because they love the quote, when someone shows you who they are the first time, believe them.
Yeah.
OK, Robin, I believe you.
You're freaking racist.
Trump just banned TikTok.
unidentified
Whoa, really?
lydia smith
He just signed an executive order saying that TikTok is banned under the National Emergencies Act and will sanction any company still doing business with them in 45 days.
tim pool
Breaking news!
adam crigler
I saw that in the chat.
tim pool
Breaking news.
lydia smith
I gotta check this out.
unidentified
Wow.
lydia smith
I have the bandwidth to check it.
adam crigler
Man, what a boss.
lydia smith
We make stuff happen.
adam crigler
Trump 2020.
You know what?
I don't need that 30,000 likes.
This one's for me.
lydia smith
Oh, we're at 28.
Oh, yeah.
adam crigler
Hey, you know what?
Check it out.
60,000 people are here.
I love all you guys.
You guys are fantastic.
tim pool
So I have the story.
This is actually from like a half an hour ago, actually.
lydia smith
It's been a few minutes.
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah.
Check this out.
We got this.
We just pulled it up from the Guardian.
This is it's still technically breaking.
I know we're in the Twitter era, but Whoa, dude, this is a bomb drop.
Check this out.
Trump bans U.S.
transactions with TikTok's Chinese-owned parent company.
Executive order comes as app faces scrutiny from U.S.
lawmakers and Trump administration over national security concerns.
So we have a tweet from Hunter Walker breaking.
President Trump just issued an executive order on addressing the threat posed by TikTok.
It takes effect in 45 days, prohibits any transaction with ByteDance, the Chinese company that owns TikTok, and will almost certainly face legal challenges.
The president has just dropped the nuke and I've been saving this.
I've been saving this story.
You ready for this?
You want to play games?
You want to play games?
YouTube bans almost 2,600 Chinese channels for influence operations.
Some of the channels posted content about racial justice protests in the U.S.
We are not playing games.
Trump is not just banning TikTok because he's mad at some little kids.
They're trying to play the stupid narrative where they're like, Trump is just mad because they pranked his rally.
No, no.
Trump is concerned that TikTok has been taking data and giving it to the Communist Party of China.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And you were mentioning this earlier about.
adam crigler
Yeah, well, I'll say it.
I was.
So I was watching this documentary on surveillance and Chinese companies have been building these facial recognition software devices, basically, and selling them All across the world, the EU uses them.
Africa uses them.
I mean, who knows how many devices that are on this planet use them.
But TikTok, if you think about what that is in everybody's smartphone that's got facial recognition now, they've got all this information now.
We know that they've been taking information.
They're like, oh, they can look at your stuff.
It's like, yeah, they can also look at your face and document that.
Go ahead.
tim pool
I gotta tell you guys how much worse TikTok is than you realize.
Did you know that you have a Facebook profile?
Now, of course, many people are probably saying, of course I do, and many people are saying, no, I don't, I never signed up.
No, no, no, no, quite literally, all of you do, whether you signed up or you didn't.
Facebook has something called shadow profiles.
Let me explain to you the danger of TikTok and why this, I'm gonna defer to the experts, but very well may be necessary.
Let's say you have your phone, as Adam mentioned, facial recognition first and foremost.
You pop open the TikTok app and you're filming yourself and you're making duck face or whatever, right?
Now they know your name, your email, your password, and what your face looks like.
And China has hacked U.S.
industry in the past.
Now your password, which most people reuse everywhere, they can access everything about you.
They know your name, they know your birthday, probably, if you signed up and put in your birthday.
I'm not going to make allegations against TikTok if I can't prove it.
I don't know if TikTok takes your mobile list the way Facebook does.
But let me tell you what Facebook does.
Let's say Adam never signs up for Facebook and I have on my phone a Facebook app.
In my app, my contact list of my phone numbers, I have Adam Krigler.
It's got his phone number.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
When you open the app, it says, allow us to look at your contact list to find your friends.
And everybody says yes.
Facebook takes that list and takes Adam Krigler, puts his phone number down.
The best part.
Here's the best part.
Now, they have a profile for Adam with just his phone number.
But hold on.
Adam's sister posted a photo saying me with my brother Adam.
Now they add that to his profile.
A photo of him.
Facebook builds shadow profiles of people because people around you share data that the third party never agreed to share.
Now think about where that goes with TikTok.
If TikTok is on your phone and they've been accused of spying and stealing background data.
lydia smith
They do take your contacts.
tim pool
They do take your contacts.
Think about this man, they've got your contact list, they know who your mom is, they know your dad,
now they know your mom, guess what?
They can pull up her information, find her maid name, boom, they got your bank account, it's that easy.
They're gonna pull up everything on everybody and have access to all this information,
that's why the ban on TikTok was considered, that's why it's serious,
it has nothing to do with Trump's thin skin or some woman mocking him online.
It has everything to do with the fact that first of all, we're mad enough that Facebook is basically spying on us
in effect and creating shadow profiles people who never signed up.
Now, the last thing I want is Facebook to do it, let alone the Communist Party of China.
So this is why a ban on TikTok is legit.
Now, I'm not going to pretend to know the inner workings of all of this, but I can tell you that we know big tech spies on us.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez herself slammed big tech companies for surveillance and for spying, and I applauded her for doing so.
And now, is she going to come out and be in support of this?
I really doubt it.
unidentified
I doubt it.
tim pool
I really doubt it.
adam crigler
I doubt it too.
tim pool
But TikTok is worse.
Why is it?
That when big tech is censoring American citizens, the ACLU mums the word.
FreePress.net mums the word.
But as soon as Trump talks about banning TikTok, the ACLU steps up and says, that would be a violation of human rights.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Because all these companies and nonprofits are in it for China.
adam crigler
Yes, they are.
tim pool
So you ever notice you're talking with a friend of yours about, you know what I haven't had in a while?
Portillo's hot dogs.
And then all of a sudden, boom, there's ads on your computer.
Think about that and think about what happens when we're talking about escalating conflict between China.
China's talking about, you know, they're doing air raid drills.
There's a real fear of conflict emerging.
And now they know everything about you.
Let me make it worse for you.
What do you think would happen in this country once TikTok grants access?
Listen, all these young people, all their information now, Your password.
It gets better.
What if you logged into TikTok using a different app like Facebook or Google?
Let's say you log into TikTok, you use your email address and your password, and then they get access to your phone, to your email, to everything, and then they publish all of your private information.
You want to talk about real war and disruption of economies?
How would you feel?
Okay, let's see, Gen Zers, I don't know how many are watching.
What would you do if tomorrow all of your private messages and private photos were published
on the internet for anyone to see?
You would not be happy.
Nobody would.
Absolutely not.
And all of this information can easily be stolen.
And if you have a foreign adversary of this country stealing that data, you should not
be surprised if they use it and they use it to disrupt our economy.
Because I tell you this, man, the biggest economic disruption I could think of is if
everyone's internet history and private messages became public.
All of a sudden, co-workers would hate each other, bosses would get fired overnight, everybody would be found out to be racist or sexist or bigoted, everybody would know everything, and it would cause absolute bedlam.
More importantly, they can target, I don't know, nuisances to them.
Let's say you're somebody who is using TikTok and you're speaking out against the atrocities in China, like the Uyghur Muslim crisis, the genocide.
Now they're going to be like, let's publish their private information, destroy their life.
There it is.
They got rid of a nuisance.
So I'll tell you what, man.
In 45 days.
We'll see how this plays out.
Because it is not a guarantee.
And then my phone just turned on.
That was creepy.
Yeah, my phone just started recording my voice.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
Yeah, that was creepy.
adam crigler
That is creepy.
tim pool
For real.
It just turned on.
Words started popping up.
I had to turn it off.
unidentified
They're coming for me!
tim pool
I do not have TikTok.
adam crigler
I don't either.
tim pool
I do not.
So, here's the one thing I will say.
We got a big tech problem.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
tim pool
We were just ragging on Twitter for shutting down the president for all the censorship stuff.
So TikTok is a foreign adversary.
I think we should absolutely call it out.
adam crigler
Definitely.
tim pool
I defer to the experts on this one, but I'll tell you this, man.
If we know what Facebook does, and that's only what we know now, I don't even want to think about what TikTok is doing because that data is getting stolen.
Apparently it was stealing clipboard data and data from other apps.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
So, and who knows what those other apps actually had access to themselves.
tim pool
Yeah.
Imagine, imagine some, some, some dumb person pulling up that incognito mode and looking at some nasty photos and, you know, having a good time and then TikTok knows.
unidentified
Oh man.
tim pool
TikTok knows.
The Chinese.
It knows.
Xi Jinping.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So, uh, we talked about this last time, a picture of Mark Zuckerberg, you know, coming up over a wall because Facebook, Facebook literally does know when you poop.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
I'm not, this is not a joke.
They do.
Uh, okay.
Okay.
I got to be careful for legal reasons.
My understanding based on an article I read on the internet, whether it's true or not, but I will say this.
I wouldn't be surprised if Xi Jinping knows when you poop.
lydia smith
Huh?
tim pool
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's there's there.
adam crigler
Someone sent us this board.
This is an actual depiction of him looking at you while you poop.
tim pool
There was a story I read that says Facebook knows when you're moving because of location tracking, and they know what's around you, and they can predict your behavior, and they can also read your messages, so they know if you're talking about food, they know if you're talking about, you know, I gotta run to the bathroom, so they can really predict when you're gonna go or when you are, you know, in the john.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Now, it's bad enough Mark Zuckerberg knows this stuff.
I wouldn't want Xi Jinping.
That's way worse.
adam crigler
Definitely not.
tim pool
There's no accountability for China.
So to get a bit serious, if Facebook really did cross the line, we as American citizens could have some kind of accountability.
I know it's not perfect because Facebook gets away with a lot, but if it was communist China, we'd sit back and complain about it.
That's about it.
This is crazy.
adam crigler
It's not like we're getting in a ground war with them.
tim pool
I don't think so.
I think the war we're going to see is going to be designed for the information age.
We have not had a great war in the information age.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
So there was something really interesting happened a few years ago.
It was the first time we saw footage from both sides of the conflict.
I think it was in Syria.
You had a tank with a GoPro mounted on it, and it was firing at two guys also with GoPros mounted, and both sets of the footage got uploaded later.
And then a news organization, like a news non-profit, found both clips and put them together.
And they were like, that's kind of crazy to see from both perspectives of the conflict.
So this was one of the first big moves of the Information Age warfare.
Another one, which is kind of horrifying and hilarious, is when the al-Qassam brigades in Palestine were firing missiles into Israel.
And Israel was, you know, striking back, and they were having a flame war on Twitter.
adam crigler
Wow, really?
tim pool
Yeah, the IDF was like, we will crush you, you terrorists, and they were like, we will never arrest, we're coming for you, and they're, like, tweeting at each other.
So, like, we were watching these guys tweet at each other and, like, literally try and blow each other up.
adam crigler
Wow.
lydia smith
You should focus.
tim pool
The important factor here is that you need to understand weapons of war will be designed for information warfare.
adam crigler
That's what we're seeing.
tim pool
If somebody sees a video of, like, a US ship doing something, Or a big explosion.
Or a big explosion, and they're gonna be like, look, that country did it, it's gonna be bad on the international stage.
Which means information age warfare will need to be as subversive as possible.
lydia smith
Or as showy.
tim pool
Showy, yes, to shock and awe.
But they can't, it depends on who they want to know, you know, who's doing what.
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
So if they want you to know they're gonna come for you, it wouldn't be a random explosion.
It would be like a gigantic American flag followed by like a bunch of lasers.
So like, that's us, you know?
But I think because there's a concern about looking oppressive, or looking, look, no matter what you do, whether it's defensive or not, blowing up stuff makes you look bad.
We're gonna see really weird things.
There's gonna be stealth, there's gonna be, you know, just subversive tactics, suitcase nukes, whatever.
Whatever they can do to take things out without anyone knowing they were there.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And the other thing too is, we won't be able to prove it.
They'll make it look like a lightning strike.
They'll make it look like a natural disaster.
That's the way they have to play it.
I wonder what technologies they're developing today.
adam crigler
Yeah, who knows?
tim pool
At any rate, TikTok has been nuked!
unidentified
Yes!
tim pool
I guess we'll see what happens, man.
adam crigler
Good riddance.
tim pool
Yeah.
How about we jump over to Super Chats now that we've... Way late, wow, yeah.
Way late, but that's because TikTok got banned in real time.
unidentified
Worth it.
adam crigler
Yeah, it was worth it.
And my goodness, thank you all for joining us today.
My goodness, this is the biggest show we've ever had.
Yeah.
62,000 people are here with us right now.

tim pool

adam crigler
I mean, I did it of my own volition.
I want to make that known, because I was just all hyped for what Trump's doing.
Banning TikTok.
I mean, yeah, I'm open about it, but seriously, wow.
tim pool
These kids were getting addicted to it.
adam crigler
They were, I know.
tim pool
They're addicted, they're making money off it, and that was giving too much control to a foreign adversary.
adam crigler
And they were controlling who saw what, too.
Yeah, Chinese propaganda.
So they were influencing our children.
lydia smith
And our culture.
adam crigler
Exactly.
lydia smith
Seriously, that bothers me.
adam crigler
Not okay.
tim pool
Definitely not.

See what you guys are saying.
Mr. Tumnus says, Love y'all.
I'm going on vacation for a while and going to try and take a break from the news till I return.
I am a Christian and realize I have a responsibility to be informed about what is happening.
Keep up the great job and thanks for being a great source of info.
Thank you very much for tuning in and thank you for the Super Chat.
adam crigler
Thank you.
tim pool
We have a ton of Super Chats.
This is going to be rough.
Lauren says, it is time to wage war, I hope you mean figuratively, against Democrats fleeing their BS.
I'm ready.
I'm getting ready.
I'm not going to read the rest of that simply because YouTube is unkind.
But I'll summarize it in a more peaceful way.
If people are going to leave certain areas and they're bringing bad policies with them, please have a conversation with them about what caused the problems in the first place.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
Ian Hall says, Lady Lydia and Space Jesus, did you get white girl wasted?
Did you make sure Tim got nothing?
Anyways, happy unbirthday to Space Jesus.
Shame General T. Poole about the beanie discrimination.
Also, 2am bodega sandwich is awesome, but not as good as Portillo's.
adam crigler
I like that.
That was a good super chat.
lydia smith
He got all of them.
adam crigler
I got a big one here from EpicMonkeyAD.
He says, this show goes up as one of the top shows in my book.
Thank you very much.
Real questions.
Are you going to be hiring journalists soon?
Or would you consider video chats with subs?
I'll give it to you, Tim.
tim pool
I am desperately trying to get to the point where we can start hiring people, but expansion
is required.
I'm just going to say it, man.
We're getting jammed up.
COVID is making it impossible to actually do anything.
And now, of course, I know most people realize this.
Where we are right now is supposed to be temporary.
I was trying to buy a new building, not particularly expensive, last year, so we could actually have a place to launch a new media venture, and it fell through.
COVID hit, and now it's almost impossible.
So fingers are crossed that we're actually moving forward, because we need the space to actually bring on new staff and do legit journalism, like real fact-checkers.
Then once we get that started, and I have an in-house editor-in-chief and all that stuff, There's going to be field reporting, but for the most part, it's going to be a fact-checking organization and aggregator, so.
Connor O'Brien.
Ooh, this looks like bad news.
adam crigler
Uh-oh.
tim pool
He says, well, Tim, it finally happened.
My firm hired Ida Wells and Kendi to speak for us.
I'm currently writing a response letter on the dangers of embracing wokeness that I will distribute to the partner group.
Wish me luck.
P.S., emailed my resume, spin the UFO.
To spin the UFO.
Well, spin the UFO anyway.
lydia smith
Good luck, dude.
adam crigler
I'm spinning it for you.
Yes, good luck.
Thanks for speaking out, definitely.
tim pool
Curtis Reynolds says, I don't think that's what socialists had in mind for wealth redistribution.
They've caused the wealthy to be, the wealth to be redistributed all throughout the country instead of concentrated in their cities.
Yeah, interesting.
lydia smith
Not the idea.
adam crigler
They're like, no, no, no, no, no.
tim pool
Oh, oh no.
We wanted that power.
Anthony Brewer says, ever consider that the media keeps perpetuating that Biden will win so that all the foreheads will re and screech when he loses?
The whole Hillary won the popular vote narrative.
Oh, of course, man.
Absolutely.
adam crigler
Yeah, of course.
unidentified
Landslide.
tim pool
Oh yeah.
say it's illegitimate, Trump cheated.
I think that's why they want mail-in voting.
adam crigler
Landslide.
tim pool
I think they want, right, it's the only way.
adam crigler
It's gonna happen, man.
tim pool
But I think they want mail-in voting, so that way they can say, look at all these votes
that got disqualified, Trump cheated, you know?
Darth Florbo.
unidentified
Oof.
tim pool
He says, hi from Australia.
To add to what Adam said about our lockdown, it's only two states that are in lockdown, and he's correct.
People are getting fines for being more than five kilometer from home.
unidentified
Whoa!
lydia smith
That's crazy.
tim pool
Where I live, it's basically back to normal.
Pubs and movies reopened.
adam crigler
Wow.
Oh, that's good that there's some normalcy coming back.
Yeah, I read that one.
tim pool
I read that one too.
adam crigler
I have not.
I have not seen it either.
tim pool
uh... great gareth green says

adam crigler

I have parlor more as a backup as of right now.
I don't really use it that much, but I tell people to follow me there because in the event, you know... I try to get on there, but I can try more.
I think that once you get 62,000 live viewers on a daily show, where you got a guy wearing a MAGA beanie, you're in serious danger of... Trump 2020!
You're in serious danger of YouTube... Wait, wait, give me... Yeah!
The more he does it, the closer we're getting to getting banned.
lydia smith
Thank you, Adam.
adam crigler
Just because of this, it's so silly that that's where we're at right now.
That I support our president, our current president, who's doing good things for the American public.
tim pool
They are so desperate.
adam crigler
They are desperate, aren't they?
tim pool
They are so desperate.
They'll come up with whatever reason. They'll pull up old videos. They'll try and retroactively enforce things.
People will lie.
They'll take quotes out of context. And then YouTube will be like,
unidentified
Sorry.
tim pool
Boop, you're gone.
adam crigler
Well, thank you all for showing up for us because seriously, it's because of you guys that we're here, you know.
tim pool
Mental Hay says, love you guys.
Closing on my new home August 31st.
First time homebuyer at 34.
LOL.
Anyway, God bless and MAGA 2020.
adam crigler
I'm going to spin the UFO for you.
I feel like you deserve it.
tim pool
I hope you got something not in a city and preferably far from the suburbs, but you know, just out of the city is as good as you can get.
lydia smith
Congrats though.
That's awesome.
tim pool
So, this is something that happens when we get too many superchats.
YouTube actually deleted an hour of them.
unidentified
No!
Wow.
lydia smith
Oh my gosh.
adam crigler
It is a crazy, crazy show today.
tim pool
But, so I'm sorry if we can't, we can't get to everyone's superchat all the time, but I usually try to make sure we read the first superchats that come in, always, to be like, you know, I'm trying, but...
They nuked him.
So we got this.
Matthew Brennan says, 18 U.S.
Code 2441 states that maiming a noncombatant intentionally is a war crime against the Geneva Convention explicitly.
Laser and blinding are covered by the specific subsection E on mutilation and maiming.
Can Lydia bring this up?
Well, we're long past the segment, I suppose.
I believe you!
lydia smith
I can tweet about it.
I'll look at it.
tim pool
Justin Gillette says, congrats on the three of you breaking the record of having 57,000 viewers.
Let's go 60.
We did.
unidentified
62!
adam crigler
62, dude!
Huge show today.
Roger the Trucker says, TownHall.com has an article of pickup trucks becoming the target of cancel culture.
I saw that.
I was reading into it a little bit because they're getting higher and bigger and more like, brawling truck.
tim pool
It's getting hard to buy them.
adam crigler
They're pedestrian killers now.
It's like, what?
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
adam crigler
No, they just look...
Sweet!
Awesome!
tim pool
I'm gonna tell y'all something right now.
What we're seeing with the economic shutdown persisting as long as it has, you have not yet begun to see the true ramifications.
adam crigler
Oh, no.
tim pool
And I mentioned this several times, but let's say you have a giant freight train.
These things don't just stop.
If you somehow manage to force the front to just stop dead, all the other carts just fly off the tracks and crash and start rolling down the hills and exploding and all, whatever.
Well, if they're carrying something explosive.
adam crigler
The point is, Well, then when you turn on the front engine... Everything's gone.
It's not pulling anything anymore.
There's no... So listen.
Nothing.
tim pool
I've been talking to friends who are talking about getting out of the cities.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
They're complaining that pickup trucks are becoming hard to find and very expensive.
They're complaining about RVs becoming hard to find and very expensive, and there's a massive boon in houses under $400k.
It's getting spicy out there.
And I mentioned this before, I was trying to buy some equipment for emergencies, and I'm looking at these retailers, and they're out of stock.
So this ripple, I think, is going to come.
And I'm wondering, you know, I think one of the reasons Donald Trump is very adamant of ramping up production in the U.S.
as fast as possible is because with COVID now, especially, we don't have stuff because that stuff's made in China.
adam crigler
It is.
tim pool
Or Taiwan or wherever, but it's getting really difficult to source.
adam crigler
I mean, 80% of America's imports come from China.
80%.
That's crazy.
That's so much.
And I think it's like 90% of our pharmaceuticals come from there.
So Trump making all these executive orders, bringing these manufacturing back.
lydia smith
Makes sense now.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
adam crigler
Right there.
tim pool
Samuel Farmer says, a few things.
First, can you play Will of the People tomorrow?
Second, when will we get the produced version?
Third, would it be possible to get sheet music for it?
Maybe.
I've been working with an animation company, and we have an animatic for it.
Looks really, really cool, so they're in production now for a video.
And I don't know when it will be done.
But we're gonna have a ton more music, because we got a whole bunch of songs.
And it's gonna be great and epic.
Samuel says, Lastly, according to a video I watched, a watch by a historian, never verified his credentials, so he might not have been.
The cake Marie was talking about wasn't what we know as cake, but the burnt bits of food that will form on a pan when cooking.
Interesting.
Aaron says, Marie Antoinette's story leaves it the most important info.
She said, let them eat brioche.
France had a wheat shortage, and brioche uses less flour.
She was trying to help, sheltered, but not snooty.
adam crigler
Interesting.
Interesting.
tim pool
Bunch of different ways to look at things, huh?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Sean P adds more.
Marie Antoinette never said the cake thing.
That was propaganda from the revolutionaries.
Someone else.
Just like today, there was fake news even then.
Love all the work you all do, and have a good one from Australia.
Thank you very much.
You see?
adam crigler
Thank you.
tim pool
Joseph Henson says, Life is pain, Highness.
Anyone saying differently is selling something.
Is that from Princess Bride?
lydia smith
That is from Princess Bride.
tim pool
Let's see.
adam crigler
I love it.
tim pool
Fatty Ludus says, when Adam said, you smell delicious as a bear, all I thought of was Biden bear.
adam crigler
You saw that video too, right?
tim pool
No, what is it?
adam crigler
So down in Mexico, these hikers were hiking on this path and this black bear straight up stands up on his hind legs, walks up to this woman and just starts smelling her.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
And I posted, I was like, look, it's Biden the bear.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Great reference.
tim pool
Even Johansson says, as a farmer, we've been screwed on prices for our products for the last seven years.
There are farmers on food stamps.
Something needs to change.
I'm sorry groceries have been too low for too long.
It's not just COVID causing it.
LoneWolf36 says, Lids is the best.
Hart, we like to hear her brain on the program too, you know.
lydia smith
Thanks, guys.
tim pool
Well, she can speak.
lydia smith
I do.
tim pool
Thomas Prendergast says, Tim, I'm about to go down the rabbit hole.
Adam, wait, grabs tinfoil hat.
All right, I'll go in the loony bin with you.
You know what that reminds me of?
You ever see Grandma's Boy?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
When they're in the basement and they're like, let's combine it all.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And he's like, I'll go to the loony bin with you or something like that.
He's like, I don't care.
That's amazing.
adam crigler
That's a good movie.
tim pool
Bad Guacamole says, Tim, rural land is the only safe investment right now.
Gold and silver will fall by land.
I agree, yeah.
adam crigler
Ryan Cabral says, appreciate the effort you guys pull off.
Turned 23 yesterday, another yesterday birthday, and I'm seeing more and more pro-Trump messages in my super blue area in San Jose, California.
Hope more people put up pettiness aside and wake up to what is happening across the nation.
Wish you all well.
Happy birthday and thank you very much for waking up and seeing the truth out there.
tim pool
We just had a peak concurrent viewer of 62,000, which inspires me.
I am humbled and honored, and I mean it, because whenever I hear from somebody who I've known to be a progressive telling me they're voting for Trump, the left refuses to acknowledge it.
And so, like, I was telling a story.
I try to keep my personal life, you know, my private life private.
I have family members, like any other person.
People don't know about them.
They like to make things up online.
So I'll keep things vague, and I'll mention, like, I was having a discussion about universal health care.
I mentioned some extended family members that I have who were upset about the health care in other countries and were trying to get to the United States.
And then people are like, Tim's lying.
He doesn't have family.
This is not true.
It's like, listen, when I say someone I know for a long time is now a Trump supporter,
it's legit.
adam crigler
Hi.
tim pool
So, hi.
I mean, this is one of them.
adam crigler
Hi, he's talking about me anyway.
tim pool
No, I'm not.
adam crigler
He's not even talking about me, but I'm another example.
I was a Democrat.
tim pool
But I don't need to because you're wearing a maga beanie.
adam crigler
I know, but the fact still remains that I was a Democrat in the past.
tim pool
What's more important is that you are a default urban liberal.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
What that means is there may be silent majority people who in the past have just said, I guess I'll vote Democrat, and now are realizing what's going on, and they're like, whoa, and they're putting on MAGA beanies.
I am not exaggerating.
A friend of mine that I met at a Black Lives Matter rally in the Ferguson area, which is St.
Louis, Was waving Black Lives Matter signs and like a year ago was posting on Twitter all this anti-Trump stuff and today it's all pro-Trump stuff.
You know why?
Trafficking.
Straight up.
adam crigler
Yep.
Trump's, it's one of his biggest thing that he's going on.
They just put in like $35 million to like 73 different companies to combat human trafficking.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
Bravo, President Trump.
That's amazing.
No one else is talking about it.
Why?
tim pool
So, here's what people want from me.
They want me to publish the private details of these people.
I think they pretend.
They say, Tim's lying, he doesn't have any friends believing this, because they want me to be pressured to be like, okay, here's their name, so they can harass them.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
No.
I know a ton of people who have, like, there's a lot of begrudging Trump people.
There are some people I know who are holding their nose and saying, I guess I'll vote Trump.
There are some people I know who are saying, wow, I didn't realize, and now I'm gonna vote for Trump.
Some people, Adam, saying Trump's the best.
Love Trump, whatever.
adam crigler
No, I mean, I don't know if he's the best, but he's great.
He's doing a lot of really good things that I didn't know before.
And every single executive order, he's knocking them out of the park.
And I don't see the media even talking about any of these things that he's been doing.
tim pool
Other than lying about him.
adam crigler
Other than lying about it, taking it out of context and making it seem like it's much worse than it's not even worse.
It's good things that are good for the American public.
tim pool
My journey is very simple.
I worked in media.
I traveled around the world taking pictures, videos, and live-streaming worldly events.
The media got corrupt and started lying.
I started getting more and more annoyed with it.
I started getting angry.
I started complaining about the media.
The media is doing everything in their power to prop up Democrats.
I say the media is in mainstream, venture capital-funded, powerful establishment brands.
and i started getting angry and angry about it which leads me to now say like seeing the democrats overlap
with this corruption and eventually becomes
the establishment is corrupt i'm sick of it so now you know what man these people deserve to be voted
out their companies deserve to fail all that stuff
jay max says a lot of wealthy coastal democrats that ruined their states
are leaving and going to other states that don't have
don't have the problems of c a n y et cetera AZ is a battleground state and young people need to wake up and vote local elections, not just presidential.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
You know what the problem is?
tim pool
If I came to you and said, Adam, you have two choices.
On the one hand, you can work really, really hard all day every day and feel fulfilled.
On the other hand, I'll give you free stuff.
Which one do you want?
adam crigler
Well, I like feeling fulfilled.
tim pool
I just mean in general.
adam crigler
The average person's gonna be- Well, you're asking me, though.
tim pool
But what I mean is, the average person looks at the choices.
Hard work or free stuff?
Free stuff, bro?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Why am I gonna do work?
That doesn't make sense.
In reality, work is good for you.
It feels good.
You feel accomplished.
It makes you happy.
I wonder why so many people on the left have stated in polls or in stats and everything, they have a higher instance of depression.
They're unfulfilled.
Man, there's a part of humanity where you build that birdhouse and you're like, man, I made this.
This is so cool.
You grow a garden and you're like, wow.
We made pickles.
We made pickles?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Oh, homemade pickles?
lydia smith
With our own cucumbers.
unidentified
Wow.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, I gotta tell you, we got a garden, and we had tomatoes, and I can't, what else did we have?
lydia smith
We had carrots, we had cucumbers, we had zucchinis, we had peppers, and peas.
tim pool
I had zucchinis and onions, and it was our own zucchinis.
There was something magical about looking at a zucchini, and I'm like, wow, it's from our garden.
I didn't do the work, it was them.
It was Lydia, she was the gardener.
lydia smith
Team effort.
tim pool
Still, it's like, I remember the first time I had a fresh egg from my own chicken, when Adam and I were living in Miami.
And I was like, wow man.
You get that egg, and I was kind of like nervous, like I've never actually just eaten something that was part of like my own labor or whatever, you know?
So it was rather incredible.
Let's see what else we got.
Jake M says, What we're about to witness, and it will happen very rapidly as this picks up, is who is going to surrender to the other.
Citizens disobeying the rules, or rulers making the rules.
All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
Yup.
Let's read a few more.
We did end up going late because the breaking news, so I don't want to stick around for too much longer, but we usually wrap up around 10, but I'll read a couple more.
Safety Off says, Three months ago was an earthquake.
If you weren't ready then, the tsunami to come will drown you now.
Prayers for all who are not prepared for what's to come.
And that's why I'm getting angry and trying to get this expansion happening with new journalism and everything, but man, we are getting jammed up because of COVID.
It is frustrating.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
Alright, let's see.
Laura says, Hey from South Oz.
Love listening to all of you.
Things are all but back to normal here.
But do have a woman running around in the burbs of Adelaide trying to infect others.
Whoa, creepy.
Morning Featherheart says, What is the mayor is striving to empty New York for fear of major strike?
What if?
Maybe.
I don't want to get into that, you know, a bit conspiratorial, I guess.
Not necessarily conspiratorial, but very, very speculative.
But I will say, the exodus from New York, decentralizing the economy, people buying guns, people, you know, moving out into rural areas, it's a really good thing to happen if a war was about to start.
All right, let's see what we got here.
Brody Metal says, don't stop.
Spin the UFO broadcast to my support.
God bless America.
Built five flagpoles today for old faithful.
Trump support and a Navy flag for my brother that is 17 years Navy.
Not done protecting what we believe in.
adam crigler
Awesome.
lydia smith
Very cool.
tim pool
Amazing.
lydia smith
Love it.
tim pool
Richard Julian says, how many civil liberties have to be stripped before armed conflict is justified?
I don't know.
And I don't know if armed conflict is... We're getting close.
I don't know if it's ever justified, but I suppose there has to be at some point.
adam crigler
It's just... It will be eventually.
tim pool
I've been thinking about this.
adam crigler
We're getting there.
I mean, you saw that Antifa went to that woman's house.
unidentified
Yup.
adam crigler
And were attacking her with lasers.
tim pool
Trying to blind her.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
I've been thinking about this, man.
adam crigler
So there's going to be a point where they attack each other, and it's going to be whatever.
tim pool
There really is a point at which I know we will be banned from YouTube, from Twitter, from Facebook instantly.
If it ever really came down to it.
What it meant to defend your civil rights instead of what you believe in.
Right now we're in the realm of protest.
Standing up for your rights, the silent majority can really push back on this insanity.
And I'm hoping that's what we see happen with more people speaking up, standing up, you know, coming and watching our show.
Share the show if you think it's really good.
We're on all the podcast platforms.
Really appreciate all the support.
And the more I see, you know, people watching our show and our conversations, the more hopeful I become.
adam crigler
Definitely.
tim pool
That maybe, maybe that silent majority is going to stand up.
Think about it.
adam crigler
You can admit my optimism's running off on you a little bit.
You know.
tim pool
I mean, I gotta be honest.
62,000 people.
adam crigler
Ah, they're here for me.
tim pool
Plus the powerful energy.
adam crigler
I'm just kidding.
tim pool
The powerful energy of Adam Kriggler smashing the like button.
lydia smith
It's true.
tim pool
It makes me think that maybe, what's to come in November, is that the silent majority stands up and this massive tsunami looks at these fringe lunatics and says, Yep.
adam crigler
That's gonna happen.
tim pool
It's all over it happened with Reagan it happened with Nixon not saying that those presidents were the best
presidents I'm just saying there's a there's a point where the silent
majority said enough. Yep. We saw what happened in the UK man
It was it was the Boris Johnson wave. Maybe we'll have something like that here
adam crigler
Yeah, before we go before we go smash that like button. Oh Oh, it went to 40,000 as I said it.
Thank you, everybody.
I was going to say help us get to 40,000 likes and you guys did it.
You guys are the best.
Can we break 50?
We have the best fan base.
You guys are awesome.
I don't know what they're saying, but seriously, thank you.
Thank you all.
lydia smith
Yes, thank you.
adam crigler
Really amazing.
You guys are the best.
You gave us the biggest show ever.
This was the biggest show that we've ever had tonight.
tim pool
But we keep having the biggest show like every other week, you know?
adam crigler
And I'm going to keep celebrating it non-stop because of these amazing people that show up for us.
It's awesome.
So thank you.
tim pool
Fake election night is going to be amazing.
adam crigler
Tomorrow night is jam night.
lydia smith
Yes.
adam crigler
So we're going to be playing some music.
Somebody requested Will of the People.
tim pool
One of my songs.
adam crigler
Maybe I'll play it.
Maybe he'll play it.
Who knows?
I have covered it before.
He does play it better than I do.
So we'll see.
tim pool
Maybe I'll play it better than ever.
The best.
The best.
Before you go, most of you have already smashed that like button.
Greatly appreciate it.
Yes.
Hit the notification bell so that you know when we're going live.
It's Monday through Friday at 8 p.m.
Subscribe because we put up clips from the show and if you can't check it out live, we'll
have clips up throughout the day.
Yes, Lydia produces them all.
Share this.
And there's one more thing.
If you haven't already, if you don't know that I have a main channel over at TimCast.net.
It'll redirect you to the YouTube channel.
I am very, very close to breaking one million subscribers.
And with your help, I can get there much, much faster.
Either way, I think I'm going to hit it in like a month.
So I'm really excited for this.
And again, just like the growth of this channel and this show has been ridiculous and amazing.
And it's inspiring.
And I know that, you know, even if come fake election night, I say that because November 3rd is going to be who knows what.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
You know, I think that we're still going to be here, hopefully, and we'll be able to keep, you know, bringing you news and information.
And my goal, regardless of what happens with the violation of our rights, with the expansion of these lunatics, is I'm going to do my best to make sure information can get out.
And so that's what we're going to be here for.
adam crigler
You can also check out AdamCastIRL on YouTube and that's my new show that I'm doing by myself and I do deep dives and it's going to be fun.
I'm going to continue on after we get to the new location.
tim pool
I know, hopefully.
adam crigler
Maybe I should just set up a studio anyway somewhere in this house so I can continue.
The plan was for me to set up my own spot.
We were supposed to be moving to this new location.
We're kind of getting jammed up a little bit because of COVID.
There are some videos.
I did a deep dive on Donald Trump.
I did one on Tesla, and you can check them out, AdamCastIRL.
I also upload my live music sessions from Friday nights and from previous episodes, so check it out.
tim pool
Friends, thank you all so much for all the likes, all the love, and coming to the show.
