tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Believe it or not, this may come as a surprise to many of you, but CNN actually ran a segment
		where one of their personalities, Anna Navarro, accused Ron DeSantis of cheating.
		And you know what she said he did to game the system?
		Arrested people committing voter fraud.
		I kid you not.
		She said he arrested people committing voter fraud, prayed him around, created an election police.
		He gamed the system.
		And it's like, wait, wait, you're saying, you on CNN are saying that the governor arrested people committing fraud, and then he won.
		And that's why you think he won.
		I do not think she realizes what she is saying, and that is not the dig she thinks it is.
		But we'll play this and then we'll talk all about that.
		We also have a lot more results coming in.
		I suppose good news!
		Literal good news, I guess, for conservatives and Republicans.
		Lauren Boebert has taken the lead, so it's looking like she's probably going to win.
		Almost all the votes are in.
		We'll see.
		We will see.
		And then things are still very, very tight in the Carrie Lake race.
		She went down a little bit.
		She's about 15,000 votes down.
		We'll get into all that stuff.
		And of course!
		How can we forget?
		Alex Jones has just been ordered to pay an additional $473 million.
		So he's gotta pay like $1.4 billion.
		It's just, it's just not, it's just not real money.
		Those aren't real numbers.
		That money doesn't exist anywhere, but...
		Of course, that's how it's been going, and that's how it will continue to go most likely, so we'll talk all about that.
		Before we get started, my friends, head over to TimCast.com, become a member, and sign up, join us, and you can check out all of our members-only shows.
		We'll have a members-only show coming up for you at about 11 p.m.
		And you know what we're gonna do?
		We have these little post-it notes that Milo made because he was criticizing us about the, you know, we're restricted by YouTube's rules, so I thought it'd be really cool if We send one of Milo's post-it notes that he wrote about censorship.
		He wrote, like, certain things you can't say on YouTube, and they're really funny, with, like, sad faces and stuff.
		So... What was that?
unidentified		That wasn't me.
		What was it?
		Not me.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Weird.
		Anyway, we're gonna, somebody who comments, you know, we're gonna go through the comments on the members-only videos, and then we're going to pick some people at random, and just be like, hey, we want to mail you one of Milo's little notes on censorship, because we think it's actually really funny, it'd be a cool thing to do for you guys.
		And I figure, you know, we'll probably do more stuff like that, where we can send you stuff that, you know, from the show, things that, you know, guests give or leave behind, signed stuff would be really cool, so if you want one of Milo's post-it notes that Talks about what YouTube bans.
		You can get it if you're a member.
		We'll get that sorted.
		And I do want to say, this is it.
		This is the last promo that we have for you.
		We have a song called, uh, Genocide, Losing My Mind.
		You can find out more at losingmymind.com.
		Listen to the song.
		Buy the song on iTunes.
		It really, really does.
		It's 69 cents on iTunes.
		And we're hoping to smash into the Billboard Hot 100.
		We will see.
		And it's a big ask.
		But I would love it if the media was forced to write about how we are criticizing them.
		When we put out a press release in the first song, they just basically told us, F you.
		And I read some of the comments that these journalists wrote us, like, just insulting us and saying, F you.
		And it was like, the song totally wasn't political.
		Okay, so this one's totally political.
		It's directly insulting the media.
		We have them singing for us about how they're liars trying to manipulate you.
		And then we put out a press release that overtly was insulting towards them.
		And now, it would just be really awesome if we hit the nail on the head and got to chart and they were forced to either write about it or pretend like they don't know it exists.
		So, with your supports, listening to the song on YouTube, buying it on iTunes, Genocide, Losing My Mind by Timcast.
		Don't forget to smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends.
		Joining us tonight to talk about all of the news and more, we have CJ!
unidentified		Hi!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Who are you?
unidentified		I am CJ of, I guess, the Deplorable Choir, and I'm the president of the Real Women's Club.
unidentified		That's me.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Alright, right on.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And we also have Chad Prather.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I'm good.
		I'm glad to be here.
		Host of the Chad Prather show, aptly named, on The Blaze.
		And you are a real woman.
		That's good.
unidentified		You are the vice president.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Have we determined that?
unidentified		You are the vice president of the Real Women's Club.
unidentified		Heck yeah.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's got to get me some clout on the street somewhere with real women everywhere.
unidentified		That's right.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I love it.
unidentified		Right on.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We also got Luke.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I hear that's trendy and very popular, especially in places like New York City.
		Anyway, my name is Luke Godowsky here of wearechanged.org.
		I have one important lesson for you guys, and that is that you cannot comply your way out of tyranny.
		It was true during COVID.
		It's true now, and it's true throughout all of recorded human history.
		If you agree, you can get the shirt on thebestpoliticalshirts.com because you do.
		That's why I'm here.
		Splurge, how are you?
unidentified		I'm Serge.
		I'm doing well.
		Glad you're doing as well.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Alright.
		You knew it was gonna happen.
		Here's the first story we have for you.
		I have to pull this one up.
		I heard this, so it's a tweet from Endwokeness.
		Anna Navarro goes full election denier on CNN.
		This you have to hear to believe, but of course you'll believe it.
		Here we go.
unidentified		I told you he was going to win bigly, but listen.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Wait, wait, I'm sorry.
		She said he's gonna win bigly.
		Trump actually made that word a thing.
		Anyway, let's play it again.
unidentified		I told you he was going to win bigly.
		But listen, Ron DeSantis barely won in 2018 by 35,000 votes by the skin of his teeth against a black progressive little-known mayor from Tallahassee, Florida.
		Yesterday, he won by 20 percentage points.
		Why?
		Because he gamed the system.
		Because he turned Florida into an unlevel playing field.
		They changed election laws, making it harder to vote by mail.
		They paraded a bunch of people, black people, that they arrested for voting fraud and paraded them in front of national media.
		He created an election police.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He also... I told you he was going to... He created an election police.
		He paraded people who were arrested for fraud.
		He made it harder to vote by mail.
		They call that cheating.
		It's kind of crazy to me when I first heard this because she's basically saying, like, if you stop people from committing fraud, Republicans will win.
		I'm like, uh, is that the message you were going for?
		Because that's what she said.
		That's crazy.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Essentially.
		I mean, after 2000, Florida decided to invest a lot of their money into voting.
		Because there was a big problem there in 2000, and this year they banned mail-in ballots, they banned ballot harvesting, they have voter ID laws, and they also created a police force, which I think was pretty interesting.
		But when we look at Florida, they were able to count 99% of their votes by midnight.
		They were able to do a quick and effective job at it, unlike Arizona, unlike a lot of other states that can't even count votes.
		So I think it's pretty fair to say that what they did in Florida was right.
		I think they made sure that people were voting who they were voting for and made sure that there wasn't any kind of theft or any kind of shenanigans going on.
		I think that's one of the reasons why DeSantis had such a big victory.
unidentified		And someone needs to tell those ladies there's a whole bunch of people trying to escape the blue states that the policies they vote on made them need to escape to Florida in this vote for DeSantis.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You ever look and see just how many influencers have now gone to Florida?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All of them.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Dave Rubin's in, what, Miami now.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Luke was there, but we snatched him back.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I'm gonna come back eventually, I think.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		We'll see.
		Forget the fact that, you know, Ana Paulina Luna, she won her district, but you've got so many folks that are there now, and again, if you look at the... What did he win by against Gillum?
		Like 1.8%?
		And now, this was a massive blowout, so you see...
		See, the interpretation that I take away from Ana Navarro is this.
		What they're not looking at is the fact that Ron DeSantis put in policies that actually worked, made the state free, made the state great, people liked it.
		There were a lot of people who didn't like Ron DeSantis to begin with, maybe didn't vote for him four years ago, but this time they said, you know what, this guy, he's done it right, let's put him back in.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		He barely won last time.
		He won by what, 30?
		30,000 votes.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Barely.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		It was an extremely close race, and now, how much did he win by?
		What is it?
		1.1 million votes?
		1.5.
		1.5 million votes?
		That's a lot of votes.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Trump didn't like it.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		No, obviously.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		He was angry at that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Ron DeSantis flipped Tampa and Miami.
		Huge.
		I mean, it's apocalyptic for the Democrats in the state.
		To turn a city to a Republican majority is just insane.
		That's amazing.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No, that's the thing.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You know, as Texans, we get frustrated with Greg Abbott because Greg Abbott often gets lumped in as a good conservative governor and he's not.
unidentified		He waits to see what Ron DeSantis does.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, the difference between him and Ron DeSantis is Ron DeSantis does it and then five days later has a press conference about it and talks about how he's already curb stomped everybody down.
		And it's working, and then you've got a Greg Abbott who's like, you know, putting his finger in the air to see which way the wind's blowing, and putting a pole out there, and he says, oh, we're gonna do that, too.
		Aren't we bold?
		And then he never does anything.
unidentified		Did you hear Rhonda Santa's, his speech he gave that night?
		I swear I was wondering if that was a swipe at Abbott, because he said, he mentioned all the people that just pull before they make decisions, and he said he makes decisions.
		I said, that's Abbott.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Greg Abbott spends $25,000 a week on polls.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He doesn't make a single decision without polling.
unidentified		Wow.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		You can't trust a politician like that, and you can't trust a politician at all, in my opinion, in my perspective.
		But we saw this also during COVID, specifically, with Ron DeSantis making a lot of the bigger moves that were criticized by the corporate media, and then only later on, if DeSantis was able to survive the storm, did Texas implement those same kind of policies.
		And I think COVID is the biggest The thing that a lot of people are paying attention to, and that's what really sets him aside from Donald Trump, that had the opposite approach of what Ron DeSantis did, and when Donald Trump was criticizing Sweden because they didn't lock down, Florida was not locking down as well.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, all you gotta do is look at this busing the illegals to these cities, okay?
		All you gotta look at is a microcosm of everything else.
		So Greg Abbott was doing that.
		He was sending them to Washington, D.C., sending them to New York City.
		And again, I've never approved of, let's take illegals deeper into the interior of the country.
		That becomes a problem.
		But he was doing that to try to make a point.
		He was doing it over and over again.
		And Ron DeSantis sends 48 illegals to Martha's Vineyard.
		And over a course of, what, 36 hours, makes all the headlines, all the news, because he sent them strategically to the right place.
		It wasn't New York.
		It wasn't Washington, D.C., where they could just blend in and, quote, assimilate.
		No.
		Martha's Vineyard, where he knew they were going to stand out more than anybody else.
		And it was effective.
		It was effective.
		It got more people talking about it.
		It was the ultimate troll using human beings, which is an unfortunate situation.
		But look at the attention it garnered.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it was unfortunate because Martha's Vineyard was bigoted and kicked them out!
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They sure did!
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		That's why it was unfortunate!
unidentified		And stood there with their... And then they still patted themselves on the back for like handing out blankets or something.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Gave them a Pop-Tart and said, you know... Adios, amigos!
unidentified		Bye-bye!
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		They gave them a $50 gift card.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		When Joe Biden was trafficking, was flying around these kids, and he probably still is, they kept lying and saying it wasn't happening.
		Then video comes out out of Westchester, New York, where this guy's like, if the American people found out what we were doing.
		Then you get video coming out of, I think it was Tennessee, where they're like, yep, the Biden administration is flying these illegal immigrant children into various parts of this country.
		Then you had that statement from that sheriff.
		In Ohio, where he said ICE would be like, hey, can you hold these guys temporarily for us while we're processing?
		They go, yeah, for sure.
		And then they ghost him, just leaving them there in Ohio.
		All of that was OK.
		Ron DeSantis sends one time, 48 people.
		And it was the apocalypse.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It was it.
		And listen, if you go down, anybody that's a denier of that, And again, for those who don't know, I ran in the primary against Greg Abbott.
		I ran in the Republican primary against Greg Abbott for governor of Texas.
		I have no political clout, no desire to be a politician, but everybody thought it was a joke.
		They thought it was a publicity stunt.
		Nineteen months later, they knew I was serious.
		We did what we did.
		And it was an educational thing.
		We got people involved in the primary that had never been involved before.
		You go down to McAllen, Texas.
		You go down, you stand in the airport, and you look around.
		You will literally see hundreds of illegals walking around with the manila envelope on the outside of it printed in English.
		It says, I do not speak English.
		I need you to help me get to my gate.
		You don't know what's inside of the envelope other than papers that say we have a ticket to go wherever we want to go in the country.
		It's happening.
		They're moving them all over the country.
		Look at that right there.
		Listen, my friend Weston Martinez that ran for land commissioner, he carries in his pocket a pile of those IDs.
		He carries a pile of them in his pocket at any given time, and they're all Haitians that are coming through the southern border.
		They were displaced after the hurricane.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's a fake ID that was left here by Lord Miles Rutledge on his travels.
		He was on the border.
		He said, there's tons of them.
		He had a stack of them.
		He was like, here, I'll leave this one.
unidentified		Yeah.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You can go down to the Rio Grande River and you will find there's stacks of those.
unidentified		That's what he said, yeah.
		Well, and the funny thing is, is like, you know, they're going to try to, they, well, like I said, they pat themselves on the back for welcoming them, but they don't even understand the bigger reason why you want the border closed is not only for us, because we can't house them just like you couldn't in Martha's Vineyard, but it's also completely dangerous.
		Like, there's been record numbers of illegal aliens die this year under the Biden administration.
		It's unsafe for them too.
		It creates crime here.
		But if you have a heart for illegals, which I always am trying to appeal to people and telling them why we want the border closed.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But I want to point this out too.
		I just went and saw Wakanda Forever.
		Black Panther 2.
		I told you guys about it.
		I'm not going to spoil it because I know a lot of people may want to go see it.
		I thought the movie was enjoyable.
		And it was also one of the most extremely racist films.
		I mean, it's crazy.
		The first Black Panther was an ethno-nationalist versus, like, an ethno-supremacist.
		That was the first Black Panther.
		The reason I'm bringing this up in this context, because I will give you guys a little bit of a spoiler, the movie was basically, like, I don't want to spoil too much, but it was an extreme racist stereotype about Mexican illegal immigrants.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And that's the funny thing, when you were telling me, I thought it was gonna be like blacks against white, or dominant paradigm kind of thing.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Totally, that's a turn I didn't expect.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, if you watch the trailer, you will see that there's two characters, there's, you know, T'Challa has passed away, that's in the trailer, everyone knows that because Chadwick Boseman passed, rest in peace.
		And, uh, in the movie you have Wakanda, this African nation, and then Namor, who is another Marvel character, is basically a Mexican guy.
		He's Yucatan Mayan, so they have a lot of Mexican, you know, heritage and symbols and stuff.
		And this is what the movie's about.
		If you watch the trailer, you can basically understand, without me spoiling anything, that, um, I can't get into it without spoiling a key component of the film, but holy... was it like...
		An overt message about Mexicans and South American illegal immigrants, and I was just like, yikes, man!
		Like, wow.
		And I'm sure a bunch of woke people are gonna celebrate it.
unidentified		Oh, for sure.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But I just had to bring it up because I just saw it, and it's like, on my mind.
		I wish I could spoil it.
		It'd be so good, but I can't.
unidentified		I was like, shocked when you told me.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah!
unidentified		It was wild.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Did you see it?
unidentified		No, I didn't see it.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I just didn't want to talk about it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I came in, like, we were in the car coming back from it, and just like, that whole movie, Oh man, I can't.
		I can't spoil it.
		I just wish I could, but... It's wild.
		It's wild.
		It's like Donald Trump is probably sitting there pointing his finger like that Leonardo DiCaprio.
		Like that!
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That!
		Y'all ever follow, there's a guy on Instagram, I follow his, he takes the old like Justice League comics, his name's Ace Vane, he takes the old Justice League comics and he does the voiceovers, but it's like, he's black, right, and he's very much, you know, so they capture Aquaman, and I'm not gonna give this away, I'm gonna do this creatively, they capture Aquaman, they got him in like a cage, and he's like, I'm gonna do some medieval shit on this dude, and he's like, what are you gonna do to him, man?
		He goes, I'm gonna drown him.
		So, you telling me that story reminded me a little bit of that, and of course, yeah.
		When folks see the movie, they'll know exactly.
		Six months, you can reveal it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's crazy that we've got, in politics, the border is such a big issue, and then you literally have this movie.
		I'll say this thing.
		I'll say one thing.
		It's not a spoiler.
		It's in the trailer.
		In the trailer, there is a scene showing the Mexican water people, Entering Wakanda.
		And so, you get the point.
		I'm not gonna spoil it, that's in the trailer.
		But like, the ending was just like, they may as well have come out and just started spitting racial slurs.
		I was just like...
		It's funny, though.
		I bring it up just because it's such a big political issue.
		And, like, woke people have been celebrating Black Panther, like, the first movie, as this, like, great triumph of diversity or whatever.
		And I'm like, it's just one of... Like, the whole thing is racial stereotypes.
		This is not a spoiler.
		It's just a scene in the movie.
		The Wakandans are using computer controls by banging on drums.
		And I was just... I'm like...
		It was just way over the top, way over the top.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No condom forever.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Well, let's do this.
		Let's jump to the next big story.
		Ladies and gentlemen, if you haven't already heard, Donald Trump is going, what does Curtis say?
		Postal on Ron DeSantis.
		All right, I'm gonna read for you the statement from Donald Trump.
		He writes, News Corp, which is Fox, the Wall Street Journal, and the no longer great New York Post, bring back Cole, is all in for Governor Ron DeSanctimonious, an average Republican governor with great public relations, who didn't have to close up his state, but did, unlike other Republican governors, whose overall numbers for a Republican were just average, middle of the pack, including COVID.
		And who has the advantage of sunshine, where people from badly run states up north would go, no matter who the governor was, just like I did.
		Ron came to me in desperate shape in 2017.
		He was politically dead, losing in a landslide to a very good agriculture commissioner, Adam Putnam, who was loaded up with cash and great poll numbers.
		Ron had low approval, bad polls, and no money, but he said that if I would endorse him, he could win.
		I didn't know Adam, so I said, let's give it a shot, Ron.
		When I endorsed him, it was as though, to use a bad term, a nuclear weapon went off.
		Years later, they were the exact words that Adam Putnam used in describing Ron's endorsement.
		He said, I went from having it made with no competition to immediately getting absolutely clobbered after your endorsement.
		I then got Ron by the star of the Democratic Party, Andrew Gillum, by having two massive rallies with tens of
		thousands of people at each one.
		I also fixed his campaign, which had completely fallen apart. I was all in for Ron, and he beat Gillum.
		But after the race, when votes were being stolen by the corrupt election process in Broward County, and Rod was
		going down 10,000 votes a day, I sent in the FBI and the U.S. Attorney.
		attorneys, and the ballot theft immediately ended, just prior to them running out of votes and a theory to win.
		I stopped his election from being stolen.
		And now Ron DeSanctimonious is playing games.
		The fake news asks him if he's going to run if President Trump runs, and he says, I'm only focused on the governor's race.
		I'm not looking into the future.
		Well, in terms of loyalty and class, that's really not the right answer.
		This is just like 2015 and 16, a media assault collusion when Fox News fought me to the end until I won, and then they couldn't have been nicer or more supportive.
		The Wall Street Journal loved low-energy Jeb Bush and a succession of other people as they rapidly disappeared from sight, finally falling in line with me after I easily knocked them out one by one.
		We're in exactly the same position now.
		They will keep coming after us, MAGA, but ultimately we will win, put America first, and make America great again.
		This has to be one of the cringest things I've ever heard from Trump, and it's sad.
		It's very, very sad.
		Ron DeSantis didn't say anything about him.
		Trump comes out after Ron's double-digit, 20-point victory, and then is just, for no reason, insulting Ron DeSantis.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's kind of a little pathetic.
		It's a sign of weakness, you know, because what he's doing is essentially spreading division.
		And his comments began with COVID, because that's when, again, one of the strongest talking points against Donald Trump, and where the two are the most different.
		Donald Trump told everyone to lock down, said we need 14 days to slow the spread, got Dr. Fauci to bark out orders, told everyone to listen to Dr. Fauci, launched Operation Warp Speed, told everyone to take the vaccine when DeSantis Didn't lock down, he didn't have any mask mandates in his states, and he told people, hey, if you want to take the vaccine, take it, but it's up to you and your doctor to make those decisions for yourselves.
		That's the biggest difference there, and I think this is why Donald Trump started by talking about COVID and his kind of unhinged attacks against DeSantis, when it could have been a moment of congratulations, like, hey, DeSantis, you did great.
		I hope other people in the party do great as well.
		Maybe we should work together, but we don't have any of that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Imagine if he said, instead of insulting Ron DeSantis, if he said, I remember when Ron DeSantis came to me and said, I need your support.
		And I said, Ron, you're a good guy.
		You have great policies.
		I am going to be there for you.
		And now we see just how successful he's become.
		Imagine if he just said that, said, I was proud to stand with Ron DeSantis and I'm proud now to see his success.
		I'm glad that I threw my weight behind him when I did because now we're seeing a true star.
		That would have come off as strong.
unidentified		Yeah.
		Well, and I think so many people followed Trump and they were hoping to see more candidates like Ron DeSantis pave way and do the same bold, outspoken stuff that Trump did.
		And then so when you have him, he actually knocks them down.
		From somebody who loves Trump, I don't like to see that.
		You want as many Trumps.
		You want a whole movement.
		I mean, if you're a part of that MAGA movement, you want more and more of that.
		You don't want just Trump.
		What happens when you're gone, Trump?
		You want to, you know, bring up a whole other generation of politicians that are going to be bold, that aren't going to be, you know, kissing media butt.
		And so you get someone like that in Ron DeSantis, and then he But Trump is up there when it comes to age, and there's an opportunity there to help people, to build and grow, but that's not what we have here.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Let me piss everybody off.
		So we don't need another 80-year-old president.
		We don't, okay?
		Now, I supported Trump.
		Now, I didn't understand Trump in 2015, but when I walked into the voting booth, there were two boxes.
		There was Hillary Clinton and not Hillary Clinton.
		I checked the one that said not Hillary Clinton.
		And we wound up with Donald Trump.
		Now, again, he converted me.
		He brought me over.
		I could see through the stuff.
		I could see through the, if you will, a comedic timing that he has, which is really pretty damn good.
		But he was anti-establishment.
		I think a lot of people love that.
		They love that aspect about him.
		He wasn't one of those bought and paid for 50-year politicians as we've become used to.
		And people will make the argument, they'll say, well, without Trump, there would be no DeSantis.
		And maybe that's true.
		Maybe that's true.
		Without Trump, maybe there's no Lauren Boebert.
		Maybe there's no Marjorie Taylor Greene.
unidentified		But that's the whole point.
		Trump should be like, yes, look at all these people I've brought up versus right when they succeed.
		I mean, that's no different.
		Yeah, it's like obviously he's threatened by him, which is stupid.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He even said he... You start to look like, and everybody says, well, it's 4D, 5D, 18D chess, right?
		Trump knows all.
		He walks on water, right?
		He's the savior.
		He's the messiah.
		I get it.
		Everybody's knee deep in this cult.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Did you know that Donald Trump, the name, means herald of the world ruler?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		But it sounds like it should.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So I'm being a little editorial with it, but Trump means the trumping sound of the declaration, and Donald means world ruler.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And listen, I was sitting with Donald Trump Jr.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		the night, CJ and I, the night I decided I was going to run for governor.
unidentified		Oh, and I sing songs about Trump.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I love him.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You sing at Trump rallies?
unidentified		I love him.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		We've been around, I mean, obviously, the point is, we've put our support there.
unidentified		Well, the point is, is what I'm scared of, is he actually, it's okay, it works when you do it to Ted Cruz.
		I mean, we love Ted Cruz, but you know, he's not likable, you know?
		It works!
		We all get a kick out of it, but when you go after somebody that's done so much for America, it's gonna rub your fan base the wrong way.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And the other day, I guess it was yesterday, on Truth, Trump said, now that the election in Florida is over, everything went Quite well.
		Shouldn't be said that in 2020 I got 1.1 million more votes in Florida than Ron D got this year.
		5.7 million to 4.6 million.
		Just asking.
		So I tweeted it this morning.
		I mulled over it for 24 hours and I said, dumb.
		Trump's ego getting in the way again and there's literally no justifying a move
		like this. Now psychologically I agree with you, Tim. I don't think there's any
		way you look at this. It becomes cringy. People that want to see two heroes
		come together and say, let's be a powerhouse. But remember that meme
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		that it was the Babylon Bee that wrote an article that said, ingenious move
		Trump supports impeachment forcing Democrats to oppose.
		You remember that Babylon Bee article?
		And then they just wrote basically, you know, Democrats now had no choice.
		You see, this is my favorite conspiracy theory here.
		Donald Trump knows no matter what he does, they will take the opposite side of it.
		So Trump starts going after DeSantis, so all the never-Trumpers, all of the moderates, and many Democrats are going to be like, screw you Trump, I like DeSantis!
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's wild shit, but I can see it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Trump is—I'm kidding, honestly.
		I think Trump has got an ego, and he's mad that DeSantis is doing so well, because he wants to run.
		But we can just imagine that Trump is actually so noble, he's willing to sacrifice his own image to force—God, I wish.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It would be very genius.
		Listen, look, we talked to Trump Tuesday night, right?
		So we're sitting there, we did our panel discussion on the blaze, Sarah Gonzalez, Glenn Beck, we're all sitting there, and we had Trump for 15-20 minutes, right?
		And three times Glenn asked him, he said, hey, you know, when you announce on the 15th that you're going to run for president, Trump ignored the question until the third time and finally said, quite honestly, you're going to love what I got to say, you're going to love it, you're going to appreciate what I'm going to say, you're going to love it.
		And it's like, your assumption is, yeah, he's going to announce that he's running for president.
		I can't in a million years imagine that he's going to say, I'm going to throw all of my power and my weight behind Ron DeSantis, who, look, I have no doubt, I have no question, I mean even, I'm not going to quote Roger Stone, but even Roger Stone told me one time, he's like, I don't trust Ron DeSantis.
		He's to establishment.
		Maybe he is to establishment, but I'll tell you, the guy's done a hell of a job.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But when Donald Trump criticized Ted Cruz, there's legitimate things to criticize Cruz on.
		What is he criticizing Ron DeSantis on?
		I'm not seeing it.
		Why hasn't he made a strong, legitimate argument about what exactly Ron DeSantis has done?
		He hasn't been doing that.
unidentified		He actually said what he did.
unidentified		He was upset that he didn't come out right saying he wasn't going to run for president.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and again, that's belligerent, insane kind of thinking that's absolutely based on the ego.
		And what is it doing?
		It's creating division amongst a party that, again, is fighting within the party.
		And even that one side, the anti-establishment faction, which I think is represented by Trump and DeSantis, is fighting within that party.
		So it's a civil war within a civil war of this political party, which is spreading more division and, of course, making sure That the populist branch of the party will never get any significant strength.
		The neocons are happy.
		The neocons that are watching this right now, they're happy.
		They're cheering this on.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They're calling this in the press, the GOP civil war.
		And I'm like, yo, the civil war was in 2015.
		And Donald Trump won, and then was at war.
		He wins this fight in the primary, but then he's in this long battle with the GOP establishment.
		That civil war's been going on.
		If they're now claiming this is a civil war, they're admitting Trump won.
		That MAGA won the Republican Party.
		That's it.
unidentified		Well, it would be nice.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I mean, in a perfect world, in my perfect world, I could see Trump and a DeSantis that come along and say, you know what?
		We recognize the Democrats and the Republicans are the flip side of the same big government coin.
		They're all corrupt.
		We've been screwed by the two-party system that basically ruined a constitutional republic.
		Let's start a whole other party.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But how can they start a party when they keep fighting each other?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That's the problem.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That's why I say it's my perfect world, but they're not going to do it.
unidentified		But there was even a couple right-wing pundits that were talking about... Oh, I'm an interrupter.
		My bad.
		Sorry.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no.
unidentified		I just want to make one quick point.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I just want to make one quick point here.
		There was a couple of right-wing pundits that were making the call that DeSantis and Donald Trump should run together.
		And this was going to be a dream ticket that could definitely dominate and beat the Democrats.
		And now they're... That's not going to happen.
		Sorry.
		Go ahead.
unidentified		No, listen, I got kids, I always talk over them, I'm like, listen to me!
		But I was, like you're saying, how, you know, it could be they're causing everybody to look at them, like this fighting, this infighting, all a plan, and then all of a sudden they come out holding hands.
		It's the American dream.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		A lot of people want to believe that Trump's always playing fourth-dimensional chess.
		That implies it's multi-layered and he's traveling through time or something.
		But whether it's on purpose or not, this is owning the news cycle.
		And that means Democrats are never going to get a minute of time to talk.
		So they've got no stars.
		Beto and Abrams are their stars, and they just keep losing.
		They're famous for losing.
		Beto's now lost what?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Three times.
unidentified		He's the best loser there is.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Four years.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I want somebody, I was going to do it but I didn't have time, I want somebody to come out with a meme that shows little African kids wearing Beto shirts, you know, from after the election.
		And I want them to see, like, these kids growing.
		They've got a kid that's Beto for Senate, Beto for President, Beto for Governor, and they just keep growing in these shirts.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And then you have a meme where there's an outlet store called Discount Clothing and it's all Beto shirts.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All the different kinds, Beto for Senate, Beto for Governor.
unidentified		Listen, I hope he runs again, because that's an easy shoe-in for whoever... He's probably going to run against John Cornyn.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		John Cornyn in Texas for Senator of Texas.
		He'll probably run.
		Cornyn's a piece of trash.
		But to your point, Tim, I agree with you.
		I think that you've got Trump, who... I mean, I'd love to have the kind of power where you could sit on the toilet in the West Wing at 3.30 in the morning, freshly spray-painted orange, and just hair hasn't moved in four days, and just hit tweet, you know, and just say kafefe, and it controls the news cycle for 36 hours.
		I mean, that's laser pointer-to-cats kind of power.
		Uh, and he can do that, he knows he can do that, and he's not even on Twitter, he's doing it on Truth!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But let's think about this, if Trump really was a smart guy, right?
		And I'm saying, you know, I think Trump is a smart guy, but if he was like, a tactful mastermind, what if he really was, thinking, he didn't, like Luke pointed out, he didn't actually attack DeSantis for anything.
		He's attacking him, but not really criticizing him on anything.
		What's the purpose of that?
		We're talking about it.
		It's making it look like Trump is whining and doesn't like DeSantis.
		It's giving DeSantis... The story now is he's like, DeSantis had this big win, but I was bigger.
		He's making the press continually report DeSantis won by massive numbers without actually attacking DeSantis.
unidentified		See what I mean?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's a good point.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What if Trump is thinking, They will hate me no matter what I do if I run, but DeSantis has my proxy.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		if i hate him he wins and then gives me favors good point well trump's
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		been i mean that's one theory that that needs to be backed by some evidence uh
		it's a total speculation yeah yeah yeah but but trump has been attacking
		the santas for a very long time
		He's been making small jabs against him throughout the last few months and years that are becoming pretty evident that there is a kind of ego battle here.
		I don't think it's for the chess.
		Who in the world knows?
		But at the end of the day, I think we should be skeptical of DeSantis.
		I think we should be skeptical of Donald Trump.
		But right now, DeSantis is really doing a lot by not saying anything and by not reacting, by not playing into the ego, by not counterattacking.
		A lot of people are like, wow, he's handling this in a way better way than the former president of the United States.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know what I love?
		I wake up after the midterm and I see these posts where they're like, what happened last night?
		This is Trump's fault and all that stuff.
		And I'm like, I don't know what's going on.
		The Republicans lost?
		And I look and it's like New York Times projects 224 seats for the Republicans.
		And it's a toss up.
		It might go to 51 in the Senate, maybe not.
		And then I'm like, OK, so they won.
		Wait, hold on.
		These leftists are cheering, Colbert is gloating, Jimmy Kimmel is laughing, they're posting pictures of, like, a spattering of ketchup on the floor, and they're like, yo, we won!
		And I'm like, Hillary Clinton, she goes, it turns out women like their rights and they vote.
		And I'm like, lady, you lost!
		Like, I don't understand.
		This means Nancy Pelosi's done.
		She's out.
		This is, like, the most powerful Democrat has just lost and now she's done.
unidentified		Out of a job.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And they're cheering for this.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What do you call someone who celebrates having lost?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Crazy person?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		A loser at minimum.
		But I don't understand.
		I know, you know, we had Milo on the other day and he mentioned it's because the Republicans wanted revenge.
		And I was like, oh gee, I guess I'll have to settle for winning.
		I get it.
		You want revenge.
		No, I totally understand.
		A blowout landslide would feel great.
		Sorry guys, you'll have to accept just having won.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You just have to won.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Just won.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But it's also important to note here that Ron DeSantis did endorse candidates in this election that didn't win.
		So he doesn't also have a perfect record as well.
		Donald Trump also endorsed candidates, didn't win.
		But Donald Trump's getting a lot of the criticism and a lot of flack from it.
		Some people say it's deserved, some people say it's not.
		I think what happened in Pennsylvania with Oz, the criticism there is absolutely deserved.
		I think what happened in Georgia, he criticized the candidate there that won.
		So again, it's a mixed bag of what's going on here.
		But when we look at the midterms, I mean, this is the best midterm for Democrats since 1986.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		For Democrats?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		For Democrats, yes.
		And Biden had a better midterm than Clinton and Obama.
		This is one of the best performing midterms for incoming political party in the last 20 years.
		And there's one reason for it?
		I think there's a lot of reasons.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There's one reason.
unidentified		It's not because of policy.
unidentified		It's because of mail-in ballots and redistricting.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think it's just mail-in ballots.
		Sunny Hostin on The View admitted, whether accidentally or otherwise, that she committed voter fraud.
		Now this is one person, I'm not saying it swung an election or anything like that, and maybe if you'd like to make an excuse for her as to what she meant, feel free to do so.
		But we had this This viral clip where she's on her phone and Whoopi Goldberg, she's like, get off your phone, you know, heavens or whatever.
		And then Sonny's like, it was my son.
		He was messaging me to make sure, you know, his absentee ballot, that I did that.
		And then it's like, it's a weird thing to say that I did that.
		Like, what does that refer to?
		And then she said, I had trouble voting for him today.
		Full stop.
		She said she did vote for him.
		That is admitting to voter fraud.
		Now, immediately, left personalities came out and started saying, she means that she dropped off his ballot for him.
		It's like, sure, okay, I get that.
		Where's her son at?
		Where's her son that she had his ballot and he couldn't drop it off?
		Well, apparently, it was reported that her son was in Massachusetts while she was in New York.
		So why did the ballot go to the House in New York?
		You would have to believe that The son ordered an absentee ballot not to where he is in Massachusetts, which is what absentee is for, but to his own home in New York where he could have just voted in person.
		But maybe he did it because he knew he wasn't going to be there on election day, but was going to be there.
		You have to believe then that he ordered it, went to visit his family, filled everything out, signed it, dated everything, sealed it up, closed it, put it down, then left Then called his mom and said, hey, can you drop my ballot off for me?
		You'd have to assume that he didn't just drop it in a mailbox, as per what absentee ballots are for.
		He didn't just take it with him back home to mail, that he literally went home, filled it out, dropped it, left.
		I think the simple answer, Occam's razor, is that she committed voter fraud.
		I don't think mail-in voting is overtly about voter fraud.
		I'm not saying that either.
		The reason mail-in voting was... The reason Democrats did so well right now, nothing to do with Trump, they're saying Trump dragged the party.
		No.
		Established Republicans were pulling funding from key races.
		Everybody knows that.
		And the bigger issue is Democrat turnout was very good.
		Youth turnout was very good.
		And it's this simple.
		Mom goes to her suburban mom, goes to her kids, and she says, kids, our ballots came!
		Fill them out.
		And the kids say, sure, whatever, I guess.
		Who am I voting for?
		And she says, fill it out for the Democrats.
		And then they do.
		Those are real ballots, filled out by real people.
		Those kids normally would not have voted.
		They don't know.
		They don't care.
		It has nothing to do with them.
		But their mom asked them to.
		Now, the steelman argument from the Democrats, of course, is, so what?
		Real people voted.
		What's your point?
		My point is, people who don't care about the system are voting, and that's bad for the system in the long run.
		You can argue that it's good because your policies are winning, but yo, gas prices through the roof, inflation through the roof, people are not doing well, and it's because we have voters who have nothing, no stake in the system and don't care, and are only voting because it's just, you're tripping over ballots.
		It's that simple.
		Plus, real quick, in I think 39 states, ballot harvesting is legal.
		So now you have Democrat non-profits legally going to places where people normally don't vote and saying, fill it out and I'll take it from you, and that's massively increasing voter turnout.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, if you're looking at the Democratic base this midterm election, there was a lot of unmarried women that heavily voted Democratic.
		There was also a lot of 18- to 20-year-olds that voted in favor of the Democrats.
		Over 70% of them voted for Democrats.
		I think a lot of this also has to do with big tech censorship.
		And institutions like TikTok banning right-wingers and conservatives and allowing other people to have those kind of voices there.
		And when you have those key demographics voting, obviously they're going to be voting in favor of policies that benefit them.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But I also want to point this out because for those that are fans of the show, you know I pointed this out two years ago or a year and a half ago.
		If a Democrat non-profit goes to New York City, universal mail-in voting is everywhere.
		They walk into one tall 30-40 story building.
		They knock on a door.
		No answer.
		They spin around.
		Another door.
		Knock.
		Someone answers.
		Within the span of a couple minutes, they could talk to dozens of people.
		Within the span of an hour, they've talked to hundreds.
		These are legitimate votes, and it's a legitimate practice, but universal mail-in voting disproportionately benefits dense urban populations.
		If a Republican wants to go door-to-door, they're mostly in rural areas, you'd have to get in your car, drive to a house, knock on the door, no one answers, get in your car, drive to the next house, that took five minutes.
		Democrats, knock on the door, no answer.
		Walk 10 feet, knock on the door, no answer.
		Walk 10 feet, knock on the door.
		So long as we play this game of let's make it easier for everyone to vote, the procedure outright favors Democrat strongholds.
		Now, DeSantis, I think, has proven If you play the game right, if you've got good policy, you can still win if you win the cities.
		So perhaps we should either do away with universal mail-in voting, because I certainly think that's a big problem.
		Not because I think people shouldn't be voting.
		I think it's a problem for a system when people who don't want to vote just vote because.
		Like, people have to know what they're choosing to do it.
		You have a right to own a gun doesn't mean every person should just own a gun.
		I think most people should own a gun.
		But just because you have the right to do it doesn't mean, you know, you can be just irresponsible with it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		We're in a situation, I mean look, we've got, I think that the election system in America is systematically flawed.
		You know, the radical thing that I've suggested over and over again is legally we should just wipe the ballots, the voter rolls clear.
		Let everybody, just like, your passport's expired, it's time to go back and Re-register.
		Let's see if you're alive.
		Let's see if you're legal.
		Let's see if you live where you say you live.
		Let's go back there and see who's actually there.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You should have to register every election.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I think you should, actually.
		And you should go back in there and you say, OK.
		I mean, people do that.
		They renew their driver's license.
		They renew their passports.
		They do all these things.
		I think that you should have a voting day, an election day, not an election season.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You should register for every election by going and... I don't care if it's online, a quick 30 second thing to be like, this is my current address.
		And if you don't, you don't vote.
		So back in the day, we had voting where it was like you had to be a landowner, right?
		You own that parcel.
		Okay, so we don't agree with those things today.
		But you need to understand the context back in the day.
		The man thing, yeah, obviously we've done away with all that stuff.
		You know, men and women can both go vote, 19th Amendment.
		But the reason it was land-based was because we didn't have a DMV.
		You didn't go get an ID.
		How did we know you actually lived there?
		Oh, you live in this house.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You own this parcel.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So you live here.
		When we started moving into the space of rentals and, you know, tenants, non-ownership,
		we're like, okay, well, these people, they do live here.
		We know they live here.
		They can vote.
		So because we're a community.
		What ends up happening is you had Andrew Yang say he was going to move to Georgia back in 2020 to help.
		Who was it who was running?
		It was Abrams, who was running against... Yeah, he wanted to move to Georgia to help the Democrats.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Oh, Warnock was running.
unidentified		Warnock.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Warnock.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, Andrea is like, I'm gonna move down there, and it's like, so hold on.
		You're not a member of our community.
		You're not voting for us, for what makes our lives better.
		You're voting for the nation by moving into our space.
		Yo, that's crazy.
		That shouldn't be that way.
		Now, however, You're allowed to move.
		I get it.
		That being said, I think it would make sense if you were, after every election, there's no such thing as a voter roll.
		You're not registered anymore.
		When election season comes, Facebook and Twitter and Instagram, whatever, can do a reminder being like, time to register to vote.
		And then you say, yes, I live here.
		I want to vote this place.
		They say, you got it.
		We've tracked your address.
		Then when you show up, you present proof that's who you are and where you live.
		And you say, that's me.
		And they go, send in your vote.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		And it was Ossoff, not Warnock.
		It was Osafi that was going over there.
		You got 10 million people watching this thing.
		I gotta correct that.
unidentified		Because I'm the one that's wrong.
		Well, if the Republicans really do, you know, if they're good for anything, they'll... What was it, the HB?
		You know, it's like, unfortunately, all the voters, like, they try to do... I can't talk anymore.
		I tell you, I'm like Biden.
		I need someone to finish my sentences for me.
		I look at you.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Don't look at me.
unidentified		I'm just as good as Fetterman and Biden.
		I'm over here stumbling over my words.
		What am I saying?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That's a weird telekinesis we have going on.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I agree with Michael Malice.
		I don't know his full position on Fetterman, but I think Fetterman in the Senate is a gift.
		Is a big, big gift.
		Hear me people.
		If the Republicans had the Senate, it would be better.
		Rand Paul would be chair of the health committee or whatever.
		I forgot the full name.
		And that means he's going to be able to, you know, ask some serious questions about Fauci and all that stuff.
		He's done it already.
		But what could they really do?
		There's a chance the Republicans will take the Senate with the Georgia runoff.
		We'll see.
		But with Fetterman in, this means the real prize, 2024, Fetterman's an advantage.
		Think about all of the videos that are gonna come out.
		All of the memes, all of, and it's sad, really.
		I mean, I don't like it that Biden is out of his mind, that Fetterman is brain damaged.
		These people shouldn't have run, but you know what, they did.
		So now the Democrats are going to get to withstand.
		They're gonna have to figure out how to get past.
		Two years of John Fetterman not understanding words.
		You see the video where he said he celebrated the death of Roe v. Wade?
		He's not with it.
		And they got it.
		Congratulations.
		They're gonna have to hide this man.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Hey, I've been calling for him to run for president of the United States.
		We have Biden, we might as well have Fetterman.
		And MSNBC is joining my calls, officially saying, hey, Fetterman could potentially be president.
		Unironically!
		Yes, yes, why not?
		Where?
		I believe I tweeted it on my Twitter page, LukeWeAreChange, and it was MSNBC.
		It was the video that I started off my YouTube—no, no, I played it on my YouTube video today as well.
		It should be on my Twitter.
		But the memes, they are very spicy already.
		I like to post spicy memes, but some of the Federer memes are even too spicy for me, to be honest.
unidentified		Watch this video.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		You've got to listen to this video by MSNBC because they're supporting what I put out there a couple weeks ago.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So we're going to do a new segment, and let's pull up this clip.
		We got this tweet from Mr. Luke Rutkowski himself.
		Ha ha ha ha, yes, MSNBC is behind my idea.
		Fetterman Biden 2024.
unidentified		Fetterman as a nominee at some point for president.
unidentified		I know there's some variables, obviously.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Just a few.
unidentified		What he did in the in the super red, deep red parts of Pennsylvania and the way that he ran ahead of Biden, as you were saying, ran ahead of Trump.
unidentified		I mean, it just makes it makes you wonder about his future.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		OK, I'm sorry if you hold on Fetterman in the Senate.
		As a Democrat, I can understand why there's a closed door but open window there.
		For the next two years, Democrats are going to have to answer for a man who's not all with it, who's got brain damage, in the Senate.
		And it's going to be amazing talking points for Republicans.
		But Fetterman as the President?
		No, no, no, no, no.
		There's nothing after that.
		I mean, you want to sacrifice the country for four years so that you can try and win after that?
		I'm sorry, I'm not on board with that.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I'm messaging my guys right now.
		We're making officially Biden-Fetterman 2024 shirts that are going to be available on The Best Political Shirts right now.
		Probably by the end of tonight.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Sorry, go ahead.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You know, a lot of folks think that maybe moving Fetterman into that position was a way of putting his wife in position.
unidentified		We'll see.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		that he's gonna become, you know, here in the next, I don't know, less than six months,
		he's gonna be unable to perform his duties or whatever after he's sworn in.
		And it puts his wife in a position to fill his seat. We'll see. I mean, either way, you're dealing with
		insanity across the border.
		I mean, you're dealing with insanity with this thing.
		The fact that they looked at a guy, and you know, you look at the memes, the Fetterman memes.
		I put one on my Facebook earlier today, and people said, you know, this is way beneath you.
		And I'm like, you have no idea what's beneath me.
		You don't know how low I can go.
		But they said, you're making, you have no sympathy for a stroke victim.
		I mean, my father ultimately died from his stroke, so it's not, we're not making fun of his strokes.
		He was a moron before he had a stroke.
		And again, if he's a stroke victim, then his family should have had sympathy and never put him up there.
		They should have pulled him off that platform.
		Like, if he's that impaired that he can't—he's a senator, for Christ's sake!
		If he's a senator, and he can't handle some ridicule or a meme about him, then what the hell are we doing?
unidentified		I think they just like electing people that they can control.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, there's 100% that.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Like that guy in Pennsylvania who was dead.
unidentified		I said that on Twitter.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He elected three people that were dead.
unidentified		I said that on Twitter.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		There's three.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There were three people?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		There's three.
		Well, not in Pennsylvania.
		Not in Pennsylvania.
		There were three dead people.
		Wait, wait, wait.
		There was one in Massachusetts, one in Pennsylvania, and then one somewhere else.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		California.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All Democrats?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I said, are we supposed to have sympathy for the dead guy too?
unidentified		Well, and what about the person that was running against him?
unidentified		Like, do they not...
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I'm surprised the Democrats didn't dig him up and like, hey, come in there.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Put his head on a Bible!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I recently learned that you can't defame dead people.
		So now we can say Democrats elected fraudsters, con artists, and rapists.
		Oh, they're dead.
		You can't defame them.
		No, I don't want to disparage the people who died.
		I got no beef with them.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		But my thing is they say, oh, you have no sympathy for a guy who had a stroke.
		Well, I have no sympathy for the person that's dead.
		Either they're dead, but I mean, you still elected them.
unidentified		Hugh McKean apparently died and was elected, and then Barbara Cooper, she died in October.
		But seriously, to the person that ran against them, they lost to a dead person.
		What do you do next?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		That's worse than Oz.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		That's pretty embarrassing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		If you are dead, if you are dead, your votes should be eliminated.
		Period.
		Just gone.
		Don't know.
		Don't care.
		There should be no special election.
		Your votes are gone.
		If you vote for a dead person, your vote is gone.
		You voted for a dead person.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		You're punished.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Like imagine you're playing basketball with somebody and you throw the ball just out of the court.
		Okay, that's a foul or something.
		What is that?
		Out of court or whatever?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Out of bounds.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We don't give you points for it.
		We don't say, hold on, let's start over again and we'll figure this out.
		No, no, no, no.
		You screwed up.
unidentified		That's it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And I understand that after a certain point, like if you die after a certain point, there's a good chance you'll be on the ballot.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Our good friend Sarge Summers, he died in the middle of his campaign.
unidentified		You voted for it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I voted for the dead guy.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You voted for it, so let's call you out on that.
unidentified		I am a hypocrite.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He's a good friend of ours and you gave him a little honor vote.
unidentified		I felt so bad.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He didn't win.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		On the campaign trail, he died in a car wreck.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I gotta read this super chat from James K. James, this was a grand slam.
		He says, Biden Federman 2024.
		It's a no brainer.
		That was a good one.
		That was real good.
		Anyway, on to the dead people who won.
		Amazing.
unidentified		Congratulations, y'all.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So what is it?
		I mean, look, Republicans have elected dead people for it, too.
		Because people will, like, two of these Democrats, I think, they died in October.
		Or, you know, at least one of them did.
		And so people maybe just didn't realize the person died.
		They knew who the person was, maybe.
		Or, I gotta be honest, I think they just show up, they hit the D, and they walk out.
unidentified		Oh yeah, that's probably true.
unidentified		They don't know who they're voting for.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, a friend of mine, he even put it on Twitter.
unidentified		You've got Biden that calls out for dead people.
unidentified		Yeah, he did.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I think Biden's at that stage in life where his toes are on the precipice of the eternal, so he's already seeing into the nether regions, and he's just seeing people there floating around.
		He wants to see if she's there.
		Where is she?
		Is she here?
		He's trying to shake hands with the air all the time.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
unidentified		He's got his toes on the precipice of eternity.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Shout out to Seamus of Freedom Tunes.
		It's a good horror bit.
		Biden's so close to the other side that he's starting to see through the veil.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Seeing dead people.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I see dead people.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Six, seven cents, whatever.
		You know the thing.
		But I've got a friend who said he was at the polling place and he goes up to the voting deal and he puts his thing in it.
		There's two girls, young girls, that are standing there and one of the girls says, I don't know who any of these people are.
		I don't know what to do.
		And the girl beside her said, just vote Democrat.
		And that goes right back to your point.
		Like, if you're going to do that, stay home.
		I mean, our country went from you've got to be a landowner, you had the man voted for the household, I mean, there were certain requirements that you had, and now you've got any person that's brain dead out there casting a vote because that's what they're doing.
		And I remind people, voting is not a right.
		It is a privilege in this country.
		We have the rights that afford us certain privileges.
		You don't have the right to vote.
		You have the privilege to vote.
		It's a thing that you should take very responsibly.
		For instance, I moved three months ago, four months ago, from Fort Worth, Texas down to the Houston area.
		I changed my address, changed everything, changed it with the Secretary of State to give me a new polling place.
		I still, because the state did not change my polling place, I still had to go back to Fort Worth, Texas Three and a half hours from where I'm living now, go back to Fort Worth, Texas, and vote on Tuesday, Election Day, and do it.
		And listen, I was nervous because I thought, I'm going to get up here, they're going to run my driver's license and say, well, these addresses don't match.
		I still had to fill out a form that said, change of address with the polling place and do it.
		So again, it's racist.
		It's racist that I had to do this.
		But, you know, I had to fill out another form.
		And I said, you're asking me to write on this form the same things that are on my driver's license, why am I doing this?
		And they said, just do it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think it should be harder to vote.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Should be harder to vote.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think voting is, it's a duty, it's a responsibility, and it is you saying, I want certain things for this country, for this city, for this county, whatever.
		The Democrat policy is, let's just get as many votes as possible.
		We don't care about the quality of the votes.
		It gives us power.
		That's why they want 16-year-olds to vote.
		I think voting should be hard, but it should be this hard.
		You have to get up and go vote.
unidentified		That's it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, forget that drop, forget the mail-in, forget all of that stuff.
		I mean, again, if you're in firm, you're military, you're law enforcement on duty, stuff like that I understand.
		There are special concessions for that.
		But the guy that doesn't want to get up and go... Should not vote.
		No.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		If you don't want to be there, you shouldn't be.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's just the way it is.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it's frustrating to me.
		Tomorrow's Veterans Day, right?
		I don't know when this airs.
		We're live.
		So we're Veterans Day tomorrow, right?
		We went to Antietam today.
		We went over there.
		You go over there, 22,717, I think, men died that day fighting each other, Americans fighting each other.
		You go to the graveyard, and it is a sad reminder, not only brother against brother clash, I mean, that's the bloodiest battle in the Civil War, but then you think about Normandy, and you think about You know, the millions that died in the world wars, and you look at the Afghanistan evacuation, and the 13 that died there, and the just senseless stuff that goes on.
		You're like, you got men and women that put on a uniform every day with a willingness to serve, sacrifice, give their lives for our liberty, our freedom, our ability to have those privileges I mentioned.
		And you don't do it?
		You just don't do it?
		You don't give a shit enough to go out there and study and see what's best to protect your freedoms?
		These guys died, they bled, they sacrificed, they go on deployment nine, ten months out of the year to stay away from their children, and you can't read a book?
		You can't Google something to see if John Fetterman's a...
unidentified		Well, it's like you said, things have not gotten bad enough for people to either want to vote or to change the way they vote.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		This is what happens when we live in a world of manufactured oppression and not real oppression.
		They've never suffered.
		They've manufactured victimhood, they've told themselves they're victims, and they haven't done without food.
		They haven't done without water.
		I mean, unless you live in, you know, Mississippi, Jackson, Mississippi, and there's sludge coming out of your faucet for two weeks.
		But they haven't done without.
		And so now what they're saying is, oh, I got it so hard, I can't go.
		If you got it so hard, you can't go vote?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Have you seen the video of the Starbucks employee crying about having to work eight hours?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That was the funniest video.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Who's a trans?
		Who's a trans person, I don't know if you caught that.
		That was the other thing she was complaining about, was they were misgendering.
		And that was the other thing, which I think honestly was probably the catapult that pushed her into making the video anyway.
		That was the stressor.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That was the deal.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The story wasn't about someone being mean to this person, it was just that people kept misgendering.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I grew my beard out and everything!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well I gotta be honest, I wanna be careful because I don't know if the individual was male wanting to be a woman or a woman wanting to be a man.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It was a woman wanting to be a male.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you gotta assume, you know, she didn't...
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They didn't say, so we don't really know.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		She said, I grew my beard out and everything.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I think that was the quote.
unidentified		Oh, okay.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		But the issue is, so like, look at America right now.
		You go across, I mean, I travel the country.
		I do, I'm in 35 states a year doing live comedy shows.
		I'm all over the place, 200,000 miles a year in the air.
		Everywhere I go across the country, I was in Seattle last week.
		Everywhere you go, they went from having help wanted signs outside of the restaurants to saying, please be patient with our staff.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I saw that.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's a weird trend if you think about that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We were going down to the Virginia Safari and we drove through Newmarket.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's really cool when you're out here, by the way, because all the Civil War history stuff.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's incredible.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And we went to this little restaurant and they had a big sign saying, please be patient with our staff.
		No one wants to work anymore.
		No joke.
		I tweeted a picture of it out.
		Tweeted a picture.
		And it's crazy to me.
		I'm like, where are all these people?
		Where'd they go?
		Did they get raptured or something?
unidentified		No, they got their checks in the mail.
unidentified		Now they don't want to work.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But they're not doing that anymore.
		So we went out several times now.
		A few weekends ago, we went to a theme park.
		And it was the Halloween party.
		Completely dead.
		Completely empty.
		Fifty people maybe in this theme park, and we were just like, what is going on?
		Like, where is it?
		Okay, maybe about fifty people I think I saw.
		And if you wanted to go on a ride, you had to go to the ride and there was no one manning it, and then text a phone number, and someone would come and press the ride button for you.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And to go all Sidney Watson on you, there's no shame in our culture anymore.
		Nobody feels shame.
		Nobody's ashamed of anything.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Everyone's proud.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		There's no work ethic because there's no shame in doing a poor job.
unidentified		I don't know if they're proud or they've just been told it's okay to be a victim and they just sit at home, but they're not.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You mentioned people are getting their checks.
		I want to pull up this tweet from the red-headed libertarian who says, this might be my finest prediction.
		In one image, The red-headed libertarian said, we are totally going to find out in mid-November that no one's getting their loans forgiven.
		LMAO, Biden, you playa.
		And then we have November 10th, 8.08pm, breaking federal judge rules.
		Biden's plan to cancel hundreds of billions of dollars of student loan debt is unconstitutional and must be vacated.
		Hey, did you hear?
		Biden's gonna give me money!
		videos where it was like cash in your pocket, cash in your pocket, and it's like it's like
		someone taking cash and it was like vote for Biden.
		All these young people.
		This is the problem with low information voters.
		Make the voting age 50.
		I don't care.
unidentified		These young people are like, hey, did you hear Biden's going to give me money?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'll vote for him.
		And then they do.
		Why aren't I getting my money now?
		Because he lied to you, dude.
		You see, here's the problem.
		We're old people.
		We've all been through this.
		Young people, they haven't experienced it.
		So fool me once, shame on you.
		Fool me twice, shame on me.
		These young people were just fooled for the first time.
		I don't blame them.
		They were trusting Americans who said, this guy says he's going to help me out.
		And sure enough, they got played.
		Now I just hope each and every one of you Democrats, young people who thought Joe Biden was going to give you cash and help you out realizes he lied to you.
		I ain't telling you to vote Republican, but just remember how they lied to you because it will happen again.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No, 100%.
		There was never a plan to do that.
		There was never a plan.
		Like, you remember when Joe Biden said, uh, Bill Beckbetter's gonna pay for itself?
		I mean, that was a fun idea.
		That was a fun idea.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Or the Inflation Reduction Act that has 80,000 IRS agents that Bill Gates pretty much wrote.
unidentified		87,000?
unidentified		And it's gonna go after the little person, like, that only has a little bit in their account.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, you remember what the media did with Donald Trump saying that Mexico was going to pay to build the wall.
		And then Joe Biden comes along with a bill back better.
		I remember, which again, his inflation plan is nothing but a climate change protection policy right there.
		I remember when they came out with the Green New Deal and AOC was champion for that thing.
		It looked like a fifth grader wrote something in crayon, right?
		Nobody believed.
		That there would be a $91 trillion infrastructure rebuild.
		Nobody believed that, because what's a trillion?
		Nobody knows what a trillion is.
		They say trillion, and we just white noise it, right?
		Because nobody understands what that number means.
		We just throw that around like it's no big deal.
		But by God, between modern monetary theory, the ESG scores, believing that deficit and debts are good things, a cashless society, world economic forum, all this stuff going on, and now you see what's going on.
		I mean, Joe Biden, I actually flipped the script the other day by saying the quiet stuff out loud and saying, oh, we're going to get rid of all these coal plants.
		We're going to get rid of all this stuff.
		We're not going to have that.
		We're going to shut them all down.
		We're going to have wind.
		We're going to have solar.
		They're telling us what they're doing.
		They don't care if you're, you know.
		They don't care if you're, you know...
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They've got...
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		What was their deal?
		We're going to...
		You spend $500,000 to winterize your home and we'll give you a $300 tax credit at the
		That's the inflation plan.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is what you have.
		You have college students who are broke and in debt.
		They don't own property.
		They own nothing.
		And they're unhappy.
		And so then you have working Americans who either own a home through loans, inheritance, or maybe have a vehicle, or maybe are still renting but have family and have responsibilities.
		Those people are paying attention to why their lives are being destroyed.
		Why is my gas so expensive?
		Why can't I find work?
		Why are the specialty jobs going away?
		They get mad at Democrats.
		Young college students who are getting free money, they're using loan money to live off of.
		They don't have to work for anything.
		They just don't want to pay loans.
		The Democrats just offered them the entire world.
		That's it.
		I knew a guy.
		He had student loans and what did he do?
		Just party.
		That's it.
		I mean, but this was normal in Chicago.
unidentified		CJ.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Tons of people.
unidentified		Hey!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They get student loans and they go party.
		I mean, they use it for school and then they go party on the weekends.
		And I'm like, you're doing no work.
		You're going to school, and now you want me to pay your bills.
unidentified		I'm sorry that just doesn't make sense. But it's kind of crazy that Millennials, I think they were only like two
		points behind We were I'm a millennial two points behind voting
		Republicans first Democrat they Because they're having babies now, they're growing up, they have jobs.
		And so when they came out for like Obama, but in the midterms, I'm pretty sure they were almost close to even.
		I mean, we always make fun of Millennials, but they were voting Republican more this time around.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, they have responsibility.
unidentified		There's debts.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		There's payments.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		There's mortgages.
unidentified		We grew up.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's the thing.
		When I was working in Hollywood and out there, my agent, my manager out there, my manager had a guy that worked for him.
		He's a black guy.
		He'd worked on several studio lots and stuff.
		And we'd go to dinner and Fred, he would say, man, I'm a Democrat because I grew up a Democrat.
		I grew up, my family was Democrats.
		I've never known anything different.
		And my manager, Arthur, he would say, It's because you haven't made any money yet.
		You haven't made any money yet.
		When you make a little money, you'll change.
		And this was a guy in Hollywood.
		This was a manager who's been, you know, 40 years in the television industry out there, where if you're anathema, I mean, you're a curse, you're ostracized, you're outside of the gate, man.
		You are shunned if you come out as a conservative.
		Who's saying, well, yeah, but you're not conservative because you haven't made any money yet.
		It's kind of one of those open secrets.
unidentified		That's why, wasn't the Biden administration meeting with the influencers on TikTok to get all those Gen Zers?
unidentified		Or did I dream that?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, he had everybody from the Jonas Brothers to the Dylan Mulvaney at the White House, so obviously he's doing that.
unidentified		Yeah.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		So, I'll tell you, we're in a situation where this is a controlled fault.
		Not even controlled.
		They're trying to control the downward spiral.
		They're crashing the plane.
		We know the plane is crashing.
		We know that they want this economy in shambles.
		We want everything done.
		Just done away with.
		Things that we've held valuable and traditional in America.
		And they don't care.
		They know that they can do this, pin all the blame on a Joe Biden who, he ain't got long.
		Like I said, his toes are on the precipice.
		So they can do that.
		They don't care.
		He doesn't have to campaign.
		He can lick the windows in Delaware.
		It doesn't matter what he's doing.
		It doesn't matter what he's doing.
		It doesn't matter what he says.
		The other day they just asked him, they said, what are you going to do to improve over what's happened in the last two years?
		He said, nothing.
unidentified		Well, and I think they know that it creates chaos, and chaos creates fear, and then they know that they can control you once fear sets in, and then you're gonna always vote for them.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		We saw that the last two years.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's all they got is fear.
		Well, Republicans are going to need more than whatever it is they're offering to because the establishment wants to stay the uniparty.
		They want to keep that deal.
		But that deal's done.
		MAGA came, and it's not so much about Trump anymore.
		I mean, you've got DeSantis now.
		And if the establishment and the leadership doesn't realize... You know what?
		I'll put it this way.
		I think they're willing to sacrifice victory for as long as it takes.
		They will just say, we don't care.
		They're the same thing as the Democrats, so they'll just keep sitting back and letting, you know, actual Americans suffer, hoping that eventually MAGA stops.
		It's not going to.
		I think the one thing that needs to happen right now for all the Republicans going in is just absolutely reject McConnell and McCarthy.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		100%?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's gone.
		Nope!
		Not gonna happen.
		Under no circumstances.
		Sorry.
		You tell them, you know, for all these new members of Congress, you can be like, there is nothing on God's green earth that will make me support you as Speaker.
		You better pick somebody else.
		Anyone else.
		But the problem is we've had people come in here who are just like, well, you have to.
		I'm like, no you don't.
		You can say, have fun.
		Have fun.
		Bring Pelosi back, I guess.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		See, that's the thing.
		I've called it the good old boys club forever.
		You know, you've been a member of this country club for 30 years.
		Now it's time for you to be the chairman of the board.
		It's your turn.
		Strong language, screw that.
		I mean, we've got to screw that.
		I mean, put Marjorie Taylor Greene.
		Make her speak.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Let's have a free-for-all.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, no, no, hands down.
		I think the challenge though, as I said, is they would give up.
		They would say, okay, then we'll sabotage it if you try to go against us, the establishment.
		So where do you go from there, I guess?
		Keep running?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		keep getting new people and just wait. I think before we fix social media, this problem is going
		to keep happening. I think social media has far of a bigger impact on people's perceptions and
		realities than we could even realize. And I think a lot of them are being manipulated by the DHS,
		by the FBI, by the DOJ that have their hands in big tech social media and are deciding who has a
		voice and who hasn't. And I think that's a big problem.
		And I truly do think that with this midterm that the big tech social media censorship had far more of an impact than a lot of people realize.
		I think what we saw also in 2020 with Mark Zuckerberg spending $419 million to help people vote, an effort that predominantly helped the Democrats, I think that also had a big impact.
		Also in Florida, where Ron DeSantis made sure that he passed a law banning what he called Zuckerbucks, That couldn't be used in his state.
		So I think that also played a role in Florida having such a significant victory here.
		Ron DeSantis seeing, hey, this big tech social media guy is trying to influence this by putting his money in there.
		Let's make sure his money doesn't go to Florida.
		And I think this is one reason why Ron DeSantis had such a victory, because Mark Zuckerberg wasn't able to have his influence there.
unidentified		And I think also that's why you have Biden saying we need to investigate Elon Musk now, because they don't want that free speech platform.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		These people are evil, and I'll tell you why.
		This woman gets up and she says, should we be investigating Elon Musk and the Saudi billionaire investor?
		And Biden's like, we should be looking into it.
		That investor was an original investor.
		He already had a billion plus in Twitter before Elon stepped in.
		But now they're going to try to get it. And they ignore it.
		And a lot of people, not just MAGA people, were saying, hey, shouldn't we take a look at this because this is
		influencing our politics?
		Now that Elon steps in, all of a sudden they're coming out going,
		oh, what a problem we have here. These people are evil, man.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Let's look at a couple of things. In the last two years, under the quote-unquote pandemic,
		which by the way, if we ever have a real pandemic, I'm dead because I'm not getting vaxxed or anything
		I'm not doing any of that stuff.
		I mean, no experimental stuff for me.
		But the thing is, in fact, I'm thinking about getting my vasectomy reversed, because this stuff is going to be like the new crypto.
		This is new Bitcoin right here.
		And so here's my thing.
		Look at all the tyrannies we came under, the stuff that was revealed.
		America's held together by a three-quarter strand, okay?
		The media, Education and the courts.
		We've lost the media, we've lost education, we're barely holding on to the courts, right?
		Barely.
		At least we saw with the overturning of Roe v. Wade that the courts came out in favor of the Constitution in that case, put the rights back in favor of the states making their own decisions.
		But look at all the tyrannies that are there.
		And we've got to be real careful because you've got medical tyranny.
		We saw that.
		You've got corporate tyranny.
		You've got big tech tyranny that we're discussing.
		You've got big government, which even big government, that's bureaucratic tyranny because we're being ruled not by elected representatives, but by 2.5 million unelected bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., who are getting paid to rule over us.
		You got educational tyranny, you got the mainstream media tyranny.
		And at some point in time, I'm trying to figure out when we start spilling tea into the harbor, right?
		Because this is bullshit.
		And we're looking at all this stuff, and there's no end in sight for it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You said the courts were hanging by a thread?
		We got the story from the AP.
		Alex Jones ordered to pay $473 million more to Sandy Hook families.
		million dollars more to Sandy Hook families. So, 1.44 billion.
		Connecticut Judge Barbara Bellis imposed the punitive damages on the InfoWars host and free speech system.
		Jones reportedly told his millions of followers.
		Yeah, you get the point.
		The record clearly supports the plaintiff's argument the defendant's conduct was intentional and malicious and certain to cause harm by virtue of their infrastructure, ability to spread content, and massive audience including InfoWarriors.
		I think it's all lies.
		I think Alex Jones is a guy who goes on a show and says things he thinks, and he's often wrong, and he has free speech rights to do it.
		He doesn't have a free speech right to defame people, but I believe he only defamed one person explicitly.
		I do think he was wrong to say this, and I do think it did cause damages, but this court, in my opinion, has delegitimized itself by saying a gajillion bajillion megabucks.
		They may have well just said, you know, a meteor made of gold.
		It doesn't exist.
		It's not going to happen.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Death penalty.
		Why don't you just give him the death penalty?
		I mean, it's not that far off.
		And of course, you know, he wasn't right sometimes.
		And he did get a lot of criticism, but he also apologized for what he did.
		Uh, so again, first, they try to science you.
		Second, they try to take you down through legal means.
		And third, they totally take you out.
		I think we're in the second phase here.
		I think what's happening to him is insane, is crazy.
		I was even critical of him a few years ago.
		But again, if they're doing this to him, why can't we do the same to the corporate media?
unidentified		But are they going after him because, I mean, I feel like, I mean, what is their point?
		Is it because he was one of the outspoken people for Trump, just like Steve Bannon?
		I mean, they've gone after every single person that has been influential in the MAGA movement, and he has a huge fan base.
		Steve Bannon has a huge fan base.
		They went after Roger Stone.
		They went after Mike Flynn.
		They've literally taken down everybody Milo, they've taken down anybody that's been associated with Trump and they go, oh, look, look at all these indictments.
		I mean, even if it has nothing to do with them, but it's just like they wipe out one of them at a time with process crimes, with not compliant or whatever Steve Bannon did.
		I mean, it's little tiny things, but just to say, hey, look, Anyone who supports Trump, they target.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Man, it's so crazy how many media personalities who had big shows and supported Trump, gone.
		And unrelated, I'm a big DeSantis fan, I never went to Trump House before.
		DeSantis all the way!
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But it's true.
		When we look at the online social media presence and the memes and the supporters of Donald Trump, they were the ones that got him into office.
		That's what I think.
		They were the ones who stood up and said, hey, this is absolutely crazy.
		Here's some memes.
		Here's a point of view.
		Here's my hot take on this issue.
		And it was individuals like Loomer, like Milo, like Alex Jones, like Bannon that were there on the forefront that represented a huge anti-establishment wing.
		And slowly and surely they were being taken out by the establishment as Donald Trump was kind of watching it all transpire and didn't decide to intervene and help out his supporters which is another criticism of him that I think is legitimate because he had the power to to.
		To not only just say something, but to intervene, to pass executive orders, to pass laws, but to, more importantly, also help set up other infrastructure and other platforms.
		When he saw all of his supporters being censored and banned, everyone was telling him, you're going to be next.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, he couldn't do an executive order.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, he could have done a number of things.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He could have just tried to invigorate a different platform like he's doing now with Truth Social, but now it's too late.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		He could have went to Parler, or he could have went to Truth Social, but he didn't do any of that.
		Truth wasn't around.
		But people were telling him.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He could have gone to Gab or Minds, and I remember I was at the social media summit, and someone stood up and said, why don't you sign up for an alternative platform?
		He goes, which one?
		Which one?
		And then people were like, there's a bunch, but I guess my understanding is Kushner told him not to do it.
		Not to go to parlor?
unidentified		You know?
		And was it Kushner that helped elect or put all these people in positions around him that
		completely failed him like Jeff Sessions?
		You know?
		If there's one criticism I have of him, he surrounded himself with people, I guess it
		was just to appease and make himself not look like he was coming in and just...
		He said he was going to drain the swamp, but he didn't.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		He surrounded himself with swamp monsters.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Very swampy.
		And I think he got in there and realized just how deep that swamp was.
		Or at least how wide it was.
		And it was a lot.
		And he didn't have the people who were going to pull around him.
		I mean, that's for sure.
		And he hasn't been the best human resources manager in that regard.
		He definitely put the wrong people around him.
unidentified		But that probably would be really overwhelming, going in there with so many people against you to know exactly who to trust.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, you're going in as a businessman, not as a politician.
		You're going in there, you're not willing to, you know, shake hands and put your arms around everybody else and say, I'm gonna scratch your back, you scratch mine.
		And that's a very elementary way of saying what goes on, but there is an element of that.
		You know, you're gonna do me a favor, I'm gonna do you a favor.
		He went in there like a bull in a china shop.
		Unfortunately, I think God, I don't care if people come down on me on this, but I mean, Trump went in there to drain the swamp and ended up becoming very swampy.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, he didn't have the infrastructure around him.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I don't think he became swampy.
unidentified		He did not.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, it depends.
		Operation Warp Speed and all these other things, it's all on people's personal beliefs, and at the end of the day, people will decide what they think of him on their own personal political ideas.
		One thing that I did want to bring up is that he didn't have the infrastructure and he went along and I think he should have fired a whole bunch of people.
		He should have been like, there's a lot of bureaucracy here.
		I don't know who you are.
		You're probably going to screw me over.
		You're probably going to leak to the media.
		Fired.
		You know, it's a clean house.
unidentified		I think the answer to that is, and is it what y'all have like a beltway here or something?
unidentified		Like you need to, if he's elected again or DeSantis, all the people they surround themselves with needs to be like out of this DC area.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Bring in insiders.
unidentified		Get some people from Minnesota or Texas.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I would rather see blue-collar workers at the White House than the same bureaucrats that were there.
		Eliminate everyone.
		Get coal miners.
		Be like, hey, you're going to be in charge of the EPA.
unidentified		People who have done this shit.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You said people from Texas.
		I said, just not Rick Perry.
		The guy who says, let's abolish the Department of Energy and then they put him in charge of the Department of Energy.
		Yeah, not good.
unidentified		God, y'all, I should run for office as a Democrat because I can't finish sentences.
		Yeah, but you're cute.
		I know.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You do finish sentences.
		You do.
		The thing there is, when I say he got swampy, the whole deal is, like you said, Operation Warp Speed.
		Until Trump comes out and says, I was wrong.
		He's never going to do that.
		But he pushed, he pushed, he pushed, he pushed.
		He did it to appease.
		He pushed the vet.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		And he's still doing it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Can we say that word?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I don't even know.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		The procedure.
unidentified		He's still telling people to take the procedure.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He brought the CEO of Johnson & Johnson out on the rally stage the other day and said, here's a guy that makes a lot of money.
		I mean, he makes a lot of money.
		And the place booed!
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Bill Gates is bragging right now, saying, I told Trump not to investigate the procedure, he did it.
		I was telling him how to implement policies, and he wanted me to become the science guy.
		That's what Bill Gates is saying today.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Donald Trump desperately wants to take credit.
		He will not back down from that.
		He wants it to be his great victory.
unidentified		He won't back down.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't know, people like his ego, I guess?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I don't understand that.
		You wouldn't want to be married to that, right?
		I don't understand why you want to be, you know, you don't want that guy to be your neighbor.
		But again, and I think there's a big portion of Americans out there that are conservatives that do not want government intrusion in your life.
		They got locked down, lost their jobs.
		You know, people screaming for reparations.
		There needs to be pandemic reparations.
		I mean, that Emily Oster that wrote that article last week or whatever, Halloween for The Atlantic said there needs to be pandemic amnesty.
		Screw you!
		Until there's real true reparations for that, people restored to their jobs.
		Unless you can bring grandma back, and you can't.
		And I look at that and I'm like, Trump was a part of that.
		He was a part of that.
		He was a part of allowing Fauci to go too far.
unidentified		But I don't think he knew.
unidentified		I think a lot of people were scrambling.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		But see again, that's the argument.
		I knew!
		I knew, and I'm nobody.
		I knew.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I knew Dr. Fauci was full of crap.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I knew.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		As soon as he was implementing policies saying Black Lives Matter protests are great, and they don't spread the virus, but lockdown protests are dangerous, and we shouldn't be doing those.
		It's unconstitutional!
		Donald Trump should have been like, hey, what are you doing?
		Why are you saying Black Lives Matter protests are okay, but anti-lockdown protests are not?
unidentified		That's not science.
		But your grandma's funeral's not okay.
		Exactly!
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You can't go to weddings, you can't go to funerals.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, legitimate question then, like, what about Trump made him completely blind to black... We saw the riots happening, and the George Floyd riots.
		Why didn't Trump... We knew it was bad.
		We knew Tom Cotton said insurrection act.
		Trump did nothing.
		Wasn't there at least... So outside of Trump not taking action on the riots, wasn't there an obvious contradiction when you couldn't go outside because of the lockdowns and even Trump was advocating for them?
		I tweeted this recently.
		Donald Trump ragged on Sweden over not locking down.
		Sweden has had less excess deaths and they didn't... the least amount.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, their performance is one of the best in the world.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Where was Trump's mind in, lockdowns are important, I am not going to do or say anything about these Black Lives Matter protests?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		The scientists came out and were like, yeah, it's... well, the establishment scientists.
		You see, when people protest for democratic causes, this helps everyone with COVID.
		But when they protest things that we don't like, that's bad.
		And it was so bipartisan.
		It was so biased.
		It was such a slap in the face to anyone paying attention.
		And I don't think Donald Trump didn't see it coming.
		I think it was more obvious than ever.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I want to point this out, because we're going to go to the next segment, but, you know, and I was thinking about Alex Jones having to pay $1.4 billion.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I was like, wouldn't it be awesome if he won that Powerball?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Paid in full.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, paid in full.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		But you know, when you take a number like that, you look at that, I mean, that's basically a death penalty.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Here's a guy who, he can't pay a billion and a half dollars off, he can't do that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it's anywhere near, look, they're not going to get a penny from him, and it's not going to stop him.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He's going to, look, There's already other people he's worked with running companies, doing similar things.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I'm buying supplements right now!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We get it, we get it.
		Alex is, they're gonna say, you can't have money, and he's gonna say, but someone else can have money.
		And that's how it's always been.
		Oh, so what's he gonna do, start a new C-Corp and the C-Corp's got money and you can't sue the C-Corp?
		Yeah, look.
		They'll try, they'll sue, they'll file, they'll file, they'll file.
		They'll never stop.
		But they're really not gonna get anything from him.
		Let's jump over to the story.
		Here we go, everybody, from TimCast.com.
		SNL staff writers boycotting this weekend's episode over Dave Chappelle hosting, according to report.
		There you go, that's about it.
		They're not going to do the show, an unnamed insider told the outlet.
		But none of the actors are boycotting.
		So, they say, quote, the room was full of writers.
		They all pitched ideas and they seemed very excited about it.
		Dave is looking to have some fun.
		So, that was a rep from Chappelle saying there's nothing going on.
		But, I don't know.
		What do you guys think?
		They want to try and cancel Dave Chappelle?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, this story first came from an anonymous source that, again, came out, didn't reveal who or she was, and said, oh, we're going to be boycotting.
		Dave Chappelle and his staff are saying, hey, we've been working with the writers and the actors for the last three days.
		Nothing's changed.
		No one's really boycotting us.
		So I think this is just like the kind of Netflix protest that we saw of Dave Chappelle.
		Where the media was hyping it up saying there's going to be thousands of people there and they were blasting it trying to make it seem like it was a bigger cause and a bigger reality than it actually was.
		I think this is also the same thing where you have this kind of engineering of this viewpoint gaslighting people to make them believe that people are outraged against Dave Chappelle when in reality Dave Chappelle is a comedy genius and What he's done, especially with his stories about trans people, has actually been kind of an advocacy for them rather than a criticism of it, specifically when he talked about his friend.
		So for him to get criticized for this is absolutely absurd.
		I don't think anyone's trying to boycott him, and if you are trying to boycott a comedian for telling jokes, you're taking life too seriously and you're full of crap.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Listen, you know, again, Lenny Bruce and George Carlin, the likes of those, they went to jail over obscenity laws back in the 50s and 60s.
		It's a damn shame that these things are happening right now.
		There's two places in America you should, when you walk in the door, you should expect to be a little bit offended or at least be made uncomfortable.
		One's the church, the other is the comedy show, right?
		Both of them have been watered down so bad.
		You know, the comedy show, they're afraid to offend anybody.
		They're afraid to tell jokes.
		I tell everybody when I get on stage, it's like, look, I don't care if you're gay, straight, black, white, fat, skinny, male, female, trans, she, him, her, I don't care what you are.
		If I'm gonna make fun of myself 75% of the time, I get to make fun of you too.
		Ridicule is part of the job.
		You should be able to do that.
		Doesn't mean you hate people, doesn't mean you're mad at people, doesn't mean you want to... You said this earlier, they've never suffered.
		No, they never have.
		They're thin-skinned.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The way I describe it is, you know, I'm sure everybody in this room has gotten physically hurt to some degree.
		These are people who live in pastel, you know, beanbag rooms.
		There was a university, I remember 10 years ago or whatever, they created safe space rooms where if a lecture was offensive, you can go in, there's beanbags and fluffy animals.
		So, if these people have never actually fallen and scraped their knee or anything like that, When someone says, you're dumb, they go, it's the worst pain they've ever experienced.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, on 60 Minutes this past Sunday night, the interviewer, of course, was talking to a college professor and he said, how do you deal with these tough topics?
		He goes, you don't bring them up.
		And he said, but isn't that what the university setting is all about?
		He goes, it used to be.
		Now you can't discuss?
		Listen, our country was founded on the ability to dialogue, disagree, debate, discuss, all of these different things, and fight.
		I mean, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, at least if you read their writings, they hated each other.
unidentified		Right?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And that was okay.
		They were still considered the founding fathers.
		And we're supposed to be able to do that, and then come back to this thing called the Constitution and the Bill of Rights that says, okay, this is what brings us together.
		You might say something that pisses me off, but at the end of the day, that's okay.
		Listen, my father used to tell me all the time, talking about one of my brothers, he said, yeah, he's full of shit, but if you listen to him long enough, every now and then you might find a pearl in the middle of it.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, more importantly, that's a very important takeaway there.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Sorry, I cut you off at this point.
unidentified		No, it's all good.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It just made me think of my brother and how full of shit he is.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But another thing that's very important to note here is that comedy heals division in our society.
		And when you outlaw comedy, when you make people afraid to express comedy, you perpetuate a society where it's impossible to heal any division in it.
		And I think this is why we're seeing such deliberate actions against comedians, against people trying to make other people laugh, against people trying to bring people together.
		And this is just absurd to see Dave Chappelle attacked so much, where he even has to get serious during his comedy special and address all this nonsense.
		I don't want to see that.
		I want to see him roll with the punches.
		I want to see him address a lot of the critics by making fun of them.
		And I think even he was someone who is an anti-establishment guy, who is seen as a critic of society, said, OK, now we have to get serious during this comedy special, and I'm going to have to address this seriously.
		I hated to see that.
		I thought it was a capitulation.
		And I think they're trying to limit his expression and limit everyone's expression because he's the canary in the coal mine right now.
unidentified		But I do think you're right.
		I think that's all smoke and mirrors, and I don't think anybody's complaining about it.
		Like, just like the divisiveness in this country, when you see your neighbor across the street, you're not fighting in the street.
		It really does come from the media.
		They're like, well, what do I want them to fight about this weekend?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I love that screen grab of you sitting there holding that bottle of wine.
		Fantastic shot right there.
		But you're right about that.
		I mean, nothing unifies people.
		Comedy and music should bring people together.
		I mean, listen, you take Jim Jefferies, right?
		Jim Jefferies is Australian.
		He's everything I'm not politically.
		He goes on these long binges about the Second Amendment and how we shouldn't have guns and stuff.
		And I disagree with him 100%, but I laugh my ass off when I hear him do it.
		Because first of all, I've got tough skin.
		I can disagree with somebody and still laugh at what you're saying.
		You're not legislating me into something.
		You're trying to make me laugh.
		Let's put it in perspective here.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		They roast me in the comments all the time.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I love it!
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I saw that, Luke!
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Goddamn!
		And it's fine, and it's okay, because I understand.
		Like, hey, this is the landscape.
		I'm still going to express myself.
		I'm not going to let these comments affect me, but at the same time, I know a lot of it is trolling and trying to make me laugh and trying to engage.
		And it's totally acceptable, and it's totally okay.
		And everyone should be okay with criticism.
		Everyone should be okay with people, you know, saying something about them.
		Constructive criticism, I think, is one of the most important things in our society that is needed more than ever, and we don't have a lot of that at all.
		People are afraid of any kind of criticism.
		People are afraid of any kind of responsibility.
		And I think we should normalize a society where you could speak truth to power, but that right there is being eliminated from our society and it sucks.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		I saw the comments a second ago.
		They said CJ was in her 20s and I'm in my 50s.
		I'm liking this ratio.
unidentified		What?
unidentified		They think I'm in my 20s?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, several of them said make sure you keep the jacket off.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's fantastic.
unidentified		I think you're making that up right now.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I'm in the comments.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I think he's lying.
unidentified		He makes up a lot.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That's okay.
unidentified		Go with it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I'm drinking tequila.
unidentified		You can call me 20 any day.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But yeah, love you guys in the combat section.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		It's awesome to be a part of the conversation.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		What would we do without those folks?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
		We need people like that.
		And if you're going to criticize me, I know they're going to criticize everybody else.
unidentified		Good!
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		We need that criticism.
		And here's the thing.
		I've always been a creative person.
		I come up with goofy things all the time.
		And people used to say to me, and it was the number one phrase, you have too much time on your hands.
		Now I joke and I say, yeah, I got time to stand in line at the bank to make deposits.
		But you take Dave Chappelle.
		Dave Chappelle Is eating it up.
		Like, I've met Dave.
		Dave's a super nice guy.
		I mean, he's a real person.
		And, you know...
		When you've got Netflix paying you $70 million to do an hour, and you go out there and you tape over four nights, however many he's doing, two to four nights, to do this special, and the bad press, sure, you want everybody to like you, but they don't, and as a comedian, you know.
		It's like being in sales.
		You're going to be told no 65% of the time, 75% of the time.
		This guy's worked in crowds that hate his guts, don't want to laugh at him, and so when the woke mob comes after him, You know, I talk about this in my book, Am I Crazy?, which talks about, you know, living in a woke world and being unapologetic in the middle of it.
		The beauty of Dave Chappelle is, the beauty of Bill Burr, the beauty of a Jim Jefferies, even on that side of things, they're unapologetic.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And that's an extremely attractive thing in every career path you take.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Once you're saying and doing things just to be liked, you become pathetic.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That's exactly right.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		And if you're not questioning things, if you're not pushing the needle, if you're not pushing the envelope, you're doing something wrong when it comes to having a conversation.
		And I think that's what we should all strive to do.
		And see through.
		Yeah.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's obvious.
		Last week or whenever it was, Luke Bryan, he's doing a show in Florida.
		He brings Ron DeSantis on stage.
		The crowd goes nuts.
		And then, of course, the online rereads go nuts.
		You're saying, oh my god, I can't believe you brought this guy on.
		He responds and said, when I'm in a state that's been hit by a hurricane, been devastated, for me to bring the governor on to help these people, I was raised to do that, right?
		That was my paraphrase.
		And I was like, don't apologize.
		Don't effing apologize.
		Don't you do it.
		Like when Joe Rogan apologized, don't apologize.
		That's an admission of guilt.
unidentified		They sense weakness and they're going to pounce you.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Don't do it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You just admitted guilt.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		It's blood in the water.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		A hundred percent.
		That's why our brand, you know, everything, unapologetic, be unapologetic, always.
		And I'm not saying you did something wrong to somebody personally, you insulted them or you hurt them.
		Yeah, go apologize.
		That's not what I'm saying.
		I'm talking about the culture at large Own the tweet, own the shit you said, and just move forward.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's kind of sad, you know, because apologies are supposed to be—it's a good thing.
		It's mature.
		You recognize you did something wrong, you say, you know what, I'll own up to that.
		But what's happened now is they've exploited our goodwill to such a degree that now it's like, yeah, you better off just not.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, they've abused the better angels.
		And so, like, if this group, if I say something stupid, which I'm apt to do, if I say something stupid and then we go downstairs and Tim comes to me individually and says, dude, that pissed me off.
		And I'm like, hey, I'm sorry, man.
		I'm sorry that pissed you off.
		I didn't mean to piss you off.
		That's one thing.
		But, you know, for me to come back in and bring you guys all back in the room and say, look, I made this off-the-cuff statement that I don't even know if you heard it.
		I need to apologize to all of you.
		I just made you aware of shit you didn't even know you were aware of.
		You didn't even know if you heard it, right?
		When you do that to culture at large, you're shooting yourself in the foot in a big way.
		Now you're gonna have a tattoo on you for the rest of your life.
		You're marked.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You just told everybody that you screwed up.
unidentified		They all hear the apology, but they never saw the original.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They weren't offended in the first place.
		You had to tell them they were offended.
		That's what's wrong with our culture right now.
		You get into a situation, what were we talking about, Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, who goes up for Halloween, he dresses up like a blind referee, and whatever, the Association Confederation, whatever it is, the United World of Blind People is pissed off and they want an apology.
		And I'm like, how the F did they know He dressed up!
		They're blind!
unidentified		How did they know what he dressed up as for Halloween?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Somebody had to tell them to be offended!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's a good costume.
		The point is, he's a referee who couldn't make a good call.
		It's a good joke.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Why didn't the Referees Association get pissed off?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They have more right to, in my opinion.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They do!
		They saw it!
		Throw the flag!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Man, I don't know.
		The way things are going, I'll just say, watch... These people have no principles.
		And it's exemplified by movies like Black Panther 2.
		No joke.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's fresh on your mind.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I love it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because if I could explain what the movie was about and spoil it, it's just like the ultimate hypocrisy among these... You should do it.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You should spoil it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Maybe I'll spoil it in the after show for those that... I mean, the movie literally just came out, you know what I mean?
		We went and saw the early showing.
		We do it because, one, I'm a big fan of the Marvel movies.
		I actually thought the story was enjoyable.
		That's not the best.
		But, man, was that movie racist.
		And the same thing with the first one, too.
		It's like, everything they claimed... Look.
		These cancel culture people, they're not offended.
		They're not even offended.
		They're just bored online.
		And it's something to do, and it makes them feel powerful or part of something.
		If they were offended, they would watch Black Panther 2 and be like, yo, we better boycott this movie.
		They're not.
		The whole thing is just insulting Mexican people.
unidentified		No.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But, I don't know.
		What else can you say?
		Let's do this.
		Let's go to Super Chats!
		If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, become a member at TimCast.com.
		We're gonna have a members-only show coming up for you about 11 p.m.
		And, for those who are commenting on the videos, we have these post-it notes that Milo Yiannopoulos wrote about the censorship YouTube rules.
		And there's like sad, it's like really funny, it's like you can't say this sad face.
		And so what we're gonna do is, We're going to randomly choose people who comment, and then we'll hit you up, and then we will send them out to you.
		So, like, legit, we'll put it in an envelope, we'll mail it to you, you'll get it, and you'll have a little piece of the show.
		And we have so much garbage on this table right now, I was like, here's how we can get rid of it.
		We can send it to people.
		We'll send you our garbage.
		I mean, not only that, look at Ian's site.
		I mean, you can't really see it, but it's a disaster.
		It's like a bomb went off.
		There's rocks everywhere.
		We'll set this up.
		We'll get some kind of formal thing where we'll actually put it on the site and be like, hey, 10 random commenters we'll pick and just send you guys some stuff from the show because there's not that many people who comment, but I think it'll be really cool.
		So something we can do for you guys as members.
		And before we get into the super chats, Go to losingmymind.com, listen to our new song any way you want to, put on your playlists, blast those playlists because all of those plays, they rack up and then hopefully we'll hit the Billboard chart because people really like the song.
		If you buy the song on iTunes for 69 cents, it also really helps and hopefully we get a song about how the media is garbage and trash in Billboard and force them to write about it.
		We're going to have a press release to put out, and then when they come out and they say something like, F you, you suck, we'll be like, oh man, oh, you know, whiny babies, but we're not going anywhere.
		All right, let's read some Super Chats.
		We've got Shad who says, Rename the show MiloCast IRL.
		Best show.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		I think that's from yesterday.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yesterday.
		Well, no, no, this is from today.
		But Milo basically just talked for two and a half hours.
unidentified		Yeah, pretty much.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know, I thought it was worth it, though.
		He hasn't done a show in, like, years.
		And he had a lot to say that was actually really interesting.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		No one heard his voice in such a long time.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		User Not Available says, Tim, change your shirt.
		Well, I did.
		Two days ago, I was wearing the button-up.
		Now I'm wearing the raglan.
		I have two outfits.
		That's about it.
		And I have like 50 of these shirts.
unidentified		Yeah, I was gonna say.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Bishop Cruz says DeSantis is living rent-free in Trump's head.
		His rant on Truth Social was unhinged.
		Why attack someone who has never attacked him?
		Or even announce a run for president while the election isn't done?
		Yeah.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		It just doesn't make sense unless you're trying to fracture the party.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Monhoden says, Tim, is this?
		Yeah, Monhoden.
		Tim, if Ron DeSantis is accepting money from Ken Griffin, he is not to be trusted.
		Ken Griffin runs Citadel.
		They bankrupt business to make their money by manipulating the stock market.
		He does not give money without getting something in return.
		Investigate this, please.
		Perhaps But I also wonder if DeSantis is, to this guy, the lesser of two evils.
		Like, uh-oh.
		If Trump is in, I'm in big trouble.
		DeSantis isn't as bad as Trump.
		I'll take it.
		You know, and it's a fair point to say, why is that?
		I don't know.
		I like DeSantis.
		I think DeSantis has a track record that's really, really good.
		We'll see what happens.
		All right.
		Strong feelings.
unidentified		Disagree.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Strong feelings.
		Yeah, I know.
		I think Milo was incredibly smart.
		I don't agree with his opinions.
		You know, he said DeSantis is awful and can't win, and I'm like...
		DeSantis has a track record opposing CRT, supporting school choice, his policies on lockdown.
		That's a reason why people were fleeing to Florida.
		They like what he was doing.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Milo was a wordsmith.
unidentified		You even asked him about it after the show, didn't you?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I was like, what?
		How?
		I want this!
unidentified		Yeah, totally.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		And Endmitty says, voting starts soon in Victoria, Australia.
		The Libertarians from the Liberal Democrats who oppose the government overreach need volunteers to increase representation.
		Our Conservatives were feckless.
		Bummer.
		Good luck.
		John says, Tim and gang, as I sit here, listen to this episode, I am continually refreshing the Carrie Lake race and cannot stop worrying.
		Will she end up winning?
		With the great campaign she ran, how could she not?
		I wonder.
		She's 20k down.
		It's getting worse.
		So they were saying initially that they thought it would improve because they were absentee drop-offs, which are not the same as early mail-in votes, but there were also many mail-in votes, so it's down to the wire.
		This is what happens when they do universal mail-in voting, and that's it.
		And once you get into the trap, you can't get out.
		What do they say?
		You can vote your way into communism, but you gotta shoot your way out?
		Now, in this instance, we're not quite there.
		So Carrie Lake can still win.
		In Florida, it's obvious that Ron DeSantis won by double digits.
		What we need is your state legislator.
		You guys gotta win it at every single level.
		And then, hopefully, hope for the best.
		All right.
		Let's see.
		Alex says, Lord Pool, if you may answer this peasant's super chat, I must ask why the hell is every podcaster I follow now calling insults and offenses a dig now?
		Where did this come from?
		What do you mean?
		That word's always been around.
unidentified		Yeah, I don't know.
		No answer, I don't know.
		A dig?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's a slang term.
unidentified		Yeah, I've heard it before.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, people say it.
		But, you know, you'll notice this because they all listen to the same show.
		They all listen to each other.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They'll start adopting their own words.
unidentified		Lord Pool, I love it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It is true.
		Slavic Gypsy says, as a retired postal worker, I object to going postal.
		Let's call this for what it is, a fart in a church.
		Okay.
		Charles Wan says, I want to smash more than the like button.
		What does that mean?
unidentified		Well, I think you know what that means.
unidentified		I think I know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You can smash the like button and the subscribe button.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's what he meant, right?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to smash both later.
unidentified		There's something going over my head right now.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, wait a minute.
unidentified		All right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Kermit says, I voted Chad in primaries.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You should have come on Timcast sooner.
unidentified		Well, there you go.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that was the difference.
unidentified		It might have been.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It could have been.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It wouldn't have hurt, that's for sure.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Maybe, maybe.
		All right, Joseph says, four more years.
		Cry harder with your short memory.
		What is that a reference to?
unidentified		No idea.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They want Trump to win?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		You know, here's the thing.
		Listen, I want Trump to win, too.
		Let me be real clear.
		If it comes down to, you know, Joe Biden, it's not going to be Joe Biden in 2024.
		It's going to be Gavin Newsom, right?
		If it's that or Trump, I'm going to go for Trump.
		If it's Gavin Newsom, I'm going to go for Gavin Newsom.
		If it's Carrie Lake running for president, I'm going to go for Carrie Lake.
		Or Ron DeSantis, whoever I said.
		I'm going to go for those people.
		That's the bottom line.
		But the thing that people don't understand is, we think about it because we're in these circles.
		When Donald Trump ran in 2015, he had a 90% name recognition across the nation.
		Up until a year ago, Ron DeSantis was only like 30%.
		He doesn't have the national recognition outside of Florida that people think that he does.
unidentified		The people in these circles who talk about this all the time... Yeah, that's a great thing.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It is.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because politicos know him, people who are watching the news know him, and regular people, when the media comes out and it goes, Ron DeSantis is a fascist, they're gonna go, who?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Who?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And that's a good thing.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It's gonna play in the favor.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But also, let's just say Donald Trump runs right now.
		He just lost one of his biggest supporters who could have been helping him out win the state of Florida.
		The superpower!
		Why does Ron DeSantis want to help Donald Trump now if he does run?
		Yeah.
		Which is going to hurt Donald Trump in the long run.
		He could have had an ally that could have been helping him.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		SendIt says, I heard Beto is running for class president at Uvalde.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, goodness.
unidentified		Oh, geez.
unidentified		Oh, no.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The realtor staff says wrong.
		What's wrong with Abbott polling his constituents?
		He was hired to represent the people.
		So what if he spends money on asking the people what they want rather than typical swamp diving?
		Sellouts we usually get.
unidentified		No, because we elected him to be instinctual.
		Everything is bigger in Texas.
		We wanted a Ronda Santas type.
		So Abbott sticking his finger in the air, going whichever way the wind blows, is not being a decision maker, not being a leader, not being confident.
		And that's not, that's not what we should have.
		We should have the best in Texas, I believe, and we don't.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And to be clear on that, I mean, you've got Greg Abbott in Texas who has increased the state budget by 40% in the last eight years now that he's been in office.
		He's opened the door to Silicon Valley.
		We now have a Facebook headquarters there.
		Tesla's headquartered there for real.
		He's opened the door to Google, Amazon, all these different ones.
		He threw the door open to Silicon Valley.
		He gave a billion-dollar tax subsidy to Samsung, which is a South Korean company.
unidentified		And his whole thing about building a wall was a sham.
unidentified		It was like three miles or something.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Well, he did.
		That was a political statement.
		That was a camera ploy.
		He went up there and put up two panels and that was it.
unidentified		Well, he really did have power to protect our border.
		He does.
		Just like Carrie Lake said day one.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Carrie Lake understands.
		She understands and she quoted the Constitution.
		She understands what kind of power the governor has.
unidentified		He takes money from people we don't want him taking money from and you know we don't we don't want a leader like that.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
unidentified		We wanted you, Chad.
unidentified		Well, the Senate's taking money from people we don't like.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They all have.
unidentified		But he doesn't seem like beholden to them.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They all have.
		And again, you've got somebody.
		I mean, look, you look at the state of Texas.
		We're a non-state income tax state, but our Property taxes are through the roof.
		I mean, in metropolitan areas, we're number one in the nation.
		We're number six in overall in property taxes.
		It's insane.
		They're through the roof.
		And that's all because he threw the door open to these California corporations.
unidentified		Yeah, he brings in all these blue voters and then pats himself on the back.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Trump took money from Sheldon Andelson, of all people.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Where these guys are taking money from?
		I can't even make that argument because they're all guilty.
		I don't bring that up because they're all guilty in that regard.
		And again, you have the George Soros, who is that shadowy figure.
		I just say him because everybody knows that name.
		They're those shadowy billionaire figures, both on the right and the left.
		They donate to everybody.
		That way people can say, oh, look who donated to that campaign.
		So you almost have to take the donors out unless somebody is really going to be rigid and say, we're giving that money back.
		We're not going to accept that deal.
		And unfortunately, these folks running for office don't do that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No Control says Federman is exactly what the DNC wants.
		He will vote the way they tell him and won't ask for concessions.
		They don't want another mansion.
		Except he might accidentally say no instead of yes or yes instead of no.
		So, we'll see.
unidentified		I know they're gonna tell him what to do and he's gonna do the exact opposite because he won't remember.
		Oh, is that rude?
		I mean, it's alright.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I guess, but it's true.
unidentified		All right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Lester Leo says, Taiwan is going to have midterm election on November 26.
		Tim, you should send a journalist there to observe how they run a fair and secure election.
		That's a hefty ask.
		Short notice.
		Probably outside of our capabilities at the moment.
		But, you know, we're trying to get there.
		With your support as members, we will keep growing.
		All right.
		Joseph says, dead politicians can't lie about their positions.
		Their plank is obvious.
unidentified		Ha ha.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Travis Fauver says Democratic strategy for elections is to maximize uninformed voters.
		Best way to combat it would be to publish legislation preventing displaying a candidate's political party on a ballot.
		Should be the number one priority of Republicans.
		I've said that many, many times.
		You should not be able to vote for parties.
		What do you guys think?
		Eliminate the party listing on the ballot so that no one can just vote for party?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, they would have to do some research into the issues and what they actually want as a, you know, politician.
unidentified		Like if you think about Cali's, like Cali's thing, it had like, uh, it listed, what's his name, um, Rick, uh, what was his name, Caruso?
		It listed him as like a billionaire and an investor into properties, etc.
		It doesn't display anything about his, like, his actual platform at all.
		It just says he's a billionaire investor and, you know, people in California are not gonna like that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		RDS says, please have a Milo and Michael Malice together.
		It would break the internet.
		Yes.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		We should get Malice back on.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		He hasn't been on in a while.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That was with Malice Tuesday night.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He's a wild one.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely.
		This is a really good idea.
		I will reach out to Malice and Milo and see if we can do a sit down.
unidentified		That would be a good one.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That would be crazy.
unidentified		We were asking who we wanted to be on with.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That'll be fun.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Have a debate.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it'll be a debate.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		It might.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Maybe.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		With Malice it'll turn into a debate.
unidentified		Is that the one that got in a fight on your show?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Would you fight Malice with... No, it wasn't me.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It wasn't my show, either.
		It was Glenn Beck's special.
		A little tiff.
		People can go watch it.
		What was the argument about?
		It erupted between Jason Whitlock and Michael Malice.
		Well, you know, Whitlock is—and God bless him, I don't want to talk for him, I love Jason—he's not a political guy, he's a culture guy.
		You know, he's with ESPN, he's a writer, and he's a fantastic, really smart guy, got a show on the blaze.
		And he made the off-the-cuff statement that arguably Joe Biden's the worst president in the history of the United States.
		I mean, you know, we all say that.
		He wasn't, you know, again, he wasn't statistically speaking— Woodrow Wilson!
		And so again, malice is going to say Woodrow Wilson.
		He's going to say, is he worse than Barack Obama?
		And Jason's like, look, I'm just looking at the results of what I'm seeing.
		And Malice was saying, Michael said, look, the data doesn't line up with that.
		And Jason was basically like, I don't care what your data says.
		I'm just saying, this is what I'm seeing in the streets.
		And so you can go watch it.
unidentified		You're making it sound so benign.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		He stormed off.
		I am, because they're not here, and it's not fair for me to talk about that.
		It got tough.
unidentified		Well, I'm not a part of any network.
unidentified		I can gossip if I want.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		See, here's the unfair thing, because neither does Mike.
		Mike doesn't work for the Blaze, either.
		And he kind of made a spectacle of the thing, and pushed it, pushed it, pushed it, until Jason had to go and collect his Christian sensitivities.
		It got heated, but at the end of it, look, it's two guys that have the same vision and the same, at least, maybe not the same vision, but they're going at the same goal in maybe two different directions.
		It got a little heated, but shit, that happens.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Wilson was the worst president ever.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No question about it.
		He is the reason we're in the situation we're in right now.
		is Woodrow Wilson.
		And all the RiRis online that are bitching, these experts online, they don't even know what Woodrow Wilson did, but they need to go check it out.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Alright, Billy says, Luke, quote, I'm not a DeSantis fanboy, Redkowski, who are you trying to fool?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		In this video, in this podcast, I literally told you that DeSantis endorsed candidates that didn't win, which a lot of people didn't know about, which I think is fair to talk about when we're criticizing Trump.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		And I also told you, you should be critical of him, and I have been critical of him.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's right, that's right.
		I'm just like Luke.
		DeSantis?
		Too handsome.
		Just too good-looking.
		His policies?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		That dude loses 20 pounds and I'd hit it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Those boots!
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Those white boots!
		I mean, they get everyone.
		Hey, we should be critical of every politician, that's what I always said, but when it comes to the record, I think Ron DeSantis has been great on COVID, great on a lot of the anti-woke stuff.
		What he does with foreign policy, we still don't know.
		Criticize every politician, hold their feet to the fire no matter what.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		There's still things about DeSantis I don't know that I'd like to see.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Exactly, same.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		I want to know who is backing that.
		F Paul Ryan.
		I don't give a rat's ass about Paul Ryan.
		I don't understand why Paul Ryan's even relevant.
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		But what's his foreign policy going to be like?
luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		We don't know yet.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		We don't know.
unidentified		And here's the thing, Jason Whitlock... But that's probably why it would be good for them to go at it, because it's like when they say competition breeds excellence, you'll get to see what, you know... Yeah, let's have that debate.
unidentified		Let's have that conversation.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And I will say that on the international scene, in that scale, Donald Trump is battle-tested.
		Ron DeSantis is not.
		We've seen what Donald Trump can accomplish in regards to that.
		He keeps people in check.
		He kept them at bay.
		He was hard on Russia.
		I mean, he was.
unidentified		And he keeps people talking.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And the whole thing, he's able to put his hand up here and say, look at this, look at this, look at this, while he's getting work done down here.
		And he can say the most off-the-cuff stuff, and boom, there it is.
		We don't know what Ron DeSantis is capable of in that role.
		I tend to believe he'd be okay.
		But again, he's a little more polished.
		We like that.
		Maybe he's a unifier.
		I don't know if America can be unified, but we'll see.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right, Diane Reynolds says, Tim, would you mind explaining how the Democrats benefit more from a rank choice voting?
		I'm from Maine, and we have many people who moved here because of COVID-19.
		So it's not so much that it benefits Democrats, it benefits the status quo.
		So if you have an establishment Democrat, And an establishment Republican, and a MAGA Republican.
		Ranked choice voting effectively ensures outside candidates cannot win.
		So what'll happen is, you'll have a bunch of conservatives, and they'll be like, Okay, you know, look, I don't like the MAGA guys, so I'm gonna vote Republican, and my second choice will be the Democrat because I really don't like the MAGA guys.
		That's basically what conservatives don't like about it.
		What else can happen is, let's say, you know, the one idea is ranked-choice voting can help libertarians win, and it can.
		I would probably vote libertarian on ranked-choice voting, followed up by a MAGA candidate or something like that.
		Many people probably would.
		So there is a net positive here.
		It depends how you look at it.
		But...
		When you have ranked choice voting, most people are going to vote for their unique political party, green party or libertarian, and then those votes fall off, and then they just coalesce back into Democrat or Republican establishment.
		What a lot of the MAGA people are hoping for is that in the constitutional republic system, minority parties can still win.
		Like Abraham Lincoln, for instance, who many people say is one of the greatest presidents we've ever had, whatever your opinion is on him.
		He was a minority president.
		He won Because of a split vote.
		If we had ranked choice voting, he would not have won.
		And then who knows what would have happened in the United States.
		So, I don't know.
		I'm not going to pretend that I know absolutely everything or the mathematical probabilities of ranked choice voting, but those are some of the concerns.
		What do you guys think about it?
		You guys like ranked choice?
unidentified		No?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No opinion?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		No, I just go back to the whole thing that, look, people are too swayed.
		They're too swayed by things that don't matter, whether it's the party line or whatever it is.
		We're living in an age of tyranny.
		We are being ruled by big government.
		I don't know.
		We're not united.
		As a Texan, I don't feel united with California, most of it, at least their bureaucracy.
		I don't feel united with New York or northern Illinois, Oregon, Washington.
		It's a frustrating deal.
		I mean, that's the world we're living in right now.
		I don't want to get into that.
		It's a frustrating deal.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Catherine Skavborg says, as a Gen Z-er, I don't think many understand how incredibly woke Gen Z is.
		They despise capitalism, love abortion, and are very energized to vote.
		This will continue to have a big impact.
		It's actually a relatively new phenomenon, because for a while, Gen Z actually was slightly more conservative, according to the polls, just four years ago.
		What I think changed is TikTok.
		So this is a strategy that's been around for a long time, and I'll explain to you how it works.
		You make a mobile app.
		You run advertisements of people on it doing things.
		You hire actors, you take posts, you make videos.
		You advertise it to high schools.
		Kids sign up for it.
		You give those kids fake followers, fake likes, and fake comments to make them feel validated, and then they start saying something like, whoa, I'm on Rutkowski Space, and I've got 5,000 followers.
		On Instagram, I only have 100.
		I'm gonna keep using Rutkowski Space.
		Then they go to their friends, and they're in high school.
		And their friends are like, uh, you know, I posted this on Instagram.
		I don't use Instagram.
		You don't?
		No, I'm on Rutkowski Space.
unidentified		Why?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I got 5,000 followers.
		How many followers do you have?
		What?
		You have 5,000 followers?
		Yup.
		Aw, dude, I just gained another 100.
		And they're all fake.
		But these kids don't know this.
		Then, all the other kids in the high school are like, I'm gonna sign up.
		Dude, sign up.
		And I'll shout you out, and you'll get followers.
		The company gives them one more fake accounts.
		Eventually, you end up with kids who think they have a million followers.
		All the comments are fake, but this attracts the real high school kids to go on it.
		Then, you algorithmically feed only the ideology you want those kids to have.
		Super easy.
		I was talking to people about this in 2013.
		Because we made a mobile app called Tagly in 2013.
		And it's an app where it doesn't exist anymore.
		about this in 2013.
		Because we made a mobile app called Tagly in 2013
		and it was, it's an app where it doesn't exist anymore, it might still exist.
		But you take a picture and it automatically includes metadata.
		So it'll say a text, text you want to include, like your Twitter handle, time, date, location, all through the phone.
		Take the picture, it's instantly there, you can post it, and it was context for journalists.
		And we were talking about creating a social component, and, you know, basically people were telling me it's impossible to make a new mobile app that's a social network, it's a waste of time.
		And I explained to them, like, dude, I used to work in non-profit fundraising.
		Let me tell you what you're doing wrong and explain how this works.
		We don't want to do it, but I'm like, this is what these companies do.
		We know other companies have done it.
		This is how they do it.
		It's crazy, right?
unidentified		So I'm all for brainwashing as long as it benefits me.
unidentified		So why don't you start a new app?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because people won't use it.
unidentified		I mean, give all those high schoolers the fake followers and then we feed them some nice... That's how the game works.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I believe the CEO of Reddit admitted to running bot accounts to comment on people's posts on Reddit to make it seem like they had users when they didn't.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They were getting engaged.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
		So people would be like, oh, people are talking to me.
		I'll use this app.
		Think about what, so let me ask you, do you think the government hasn't implemented that plan to control the minds of young people?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Of course they have.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Of course they have.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We know in 20, I'm sorry, it was in 2011, I believe, we learned the U.S.
		government was purchasing fake accounts from private security contractors to mimic real people, they're called sock puppets, so they can control public opinion.
		Elon Musk bought Twitter and they're all too salty about that because that means they've got to pay eight bucks for every bot they want to operate.
		Yeah, that's a lot of money.
		Elon knows what's up.
		They're pissed.
		That's why they're like, we're gonna, we're gonna investigate this national security and you're gonna pay bucks.
		It's gonna be for every account.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		And if y'all notice that when you get on Twitter, if you go to the verified deal, Like, it used to be blue check people only.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Like, you can check... Now it's garbage.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		...your mentions, and now, then you had, or you had your followers, you had your mentions, and then you had verified.
		And if you get through there, they were all verified blue check mark people.
		Now it's... I don't know how the hell they're supposedly verifying.
		I mean, there's a dude with 18 followers that are showing up in the deal.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is a terrible mistake Elon made, and hopefully he fixes it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		When I was excited for him opening up verification, it was not that he would just say, you can pay eight bucks and you are verified, it was that people had to prove they were a person.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		They were a real person.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Now what's happened is there's been a bunch of accounts that have imitated Nintendo and other companies, and his response is, lol, we banned them and they paid me.
		And I'm like, dude, A lot of people I know who are verified have complained about this.
		And all those people who complained, we agree verification should be open to everybody.
		The problem is, you used to be able to go to your, if you're verified, you can go to a verified only tab and click it, and see only verified accounts commenting, liking, sharing, etc.
		So a lot of these were your colleagues, your friends, people you worked with, or people you needed to hear from.
		Now you go on and it's like Troll Smasher 53 and they're posting slurs or they're doing whatever.
		They're saying a lot of nonsense.
		There are a lot of people who are saying things that are fine, but I already had a mentions tab.
		I don't need mentions tab 2.
		I can't use them.
		So I've got 1.4 million files on Twitter.
		My mentions tab is useless.
		I go to it, it's just chaos.
		The verified tab was neatly ordered because it was a much much smaller amount of people interacting with me.
		Now it's just a spattering mess of tens of thousands or whatever.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		It doesn't make any sense.
		At WatchChad.
		At LoneStarCJ.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The other thing is, Elon really doesn't understand These social components to gamification.
		Right now, if you are previously verified, if you click someone's verification badge, it will say, this account is verified for being notable in these spaces.
		If you're Twitter Blue verified, you click it, it'll say, this account is verified for subscribing to Twitter Blue.
		That was the stupidest thing he could have said, in my opinion.
		already.
		Elon responded to this by saying, we're going to get rid of it, it's going to say legacy
		verified, could be real or could be bogus, and then it's going to say blue.
		That was the stupidest thing he could have said, in my opinion.
		And I like Elon, I'm not trying to be mean, but when he announced that there will be limited
		edition Twitter accounts, that's what he did?
		I was like, yo!
		You just made it infinitely, exponentially more elite versus pleb.
		It's one thing to say this person was a news personality, so we verified him.
		It's another thing to say that you're an OG with a badge that can never be attained.
		Unique, limited edition, only for you.
		I was like, you think I'm gonna sign up for Twitter Blue and lose a legacy badge?
		Dude, I used to have a bunch of first edition Charizards from back in the day.
		Yeah, it's useless, but first edition Charizard?
		That's great.
		Elon basically, what he needs to do is make all of the badges the same.
		In fact, what he should do right now is he should delete every legacy badge.
		All of them.
		And then say, sign up for Twitter Blue if you want a badge.
		But instead it's like, bro, you want to tell me I'm going to have that rare limited edition,
		can never be achieved? Wow.
		It's like, I used to play World of Warcraft, and there are items you can only get
		that were promos and stuff.
		It's like, those are, you keep those, man, those are amazing.
		Elon wants to put a badge on my account that no one else can ever get, ever?
unidentified		Wow.
unidentified		Why would you get rid of it?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Never.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I don't know.
		The frustrating thing about it is if it was easy for people to go out there and get a
		large following on social media, then everybody would do it, right?
		There's a reason certain people do that, and it happens.
		Whatever nerve they struck or whatever cord they strummed, it resonated with people and they got it.
		You're in essence taking away all that work that went into building that following, right?
		And you're giving a certain verification badge to people who, again, like I said, The, you know, the person with 18 followers and a cartoon avatar as a profile picture that who knows who you are or why?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		Or why?
chad prather ▲ ● ▼		What are you bringing to the table?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think what he's trying to do is by putting a pressure on bots, it gets rid of them.
		The idea is that you need to sign up through a credit card so you know that verification means it's a real person.
		But that's not, this is my mistake.
unidentified		Were the bots even the blue check marks?
unidentified		It seems like the bots would be just like the regular people in the comments.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They are, they're.
		I thought what he was gonna do is he was gonna be like, you sign up, then you set your name, send in your ID, and now we know you are who you are.
		I thought he was verifying human beings.
		I didn't think he was gonna make like, you know, Domino Man Pizza Guy 43 with a picture of a cat eating waffles verified.
		Because we've already seen people pay, all that he's doing is making it so the spammers and the bots have to pay him money to do it.
		I get it.
		He's gonna make a lot of money off it, he's probably betting on that, but it doesn't make the user experience good.
		It makes it bad.
		All right, let's grab, we'll grab just a couple more today.
		I mean, a couple more right now.
		Amber Black says, Pool Redkowski 2024.

		Shall we?

luke rudkowski ▲ ● ▼		Well, I don't know.

		Tehran.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right.
