| As many of you know, Joe Biden was involved in illicit business dealings overseas. | ||
| One of those illicit business dealings was telling the president of Ukraine that if he didn't fire the prosecutor, he wasn't going to get congressionally approved loan guarantees. | ||
| And now we know that there's an FBI informant saying that Joe Biden is involved in a criminal bribery scheme. | ||
| Well, the big news today, the GOP has revealed that this executive at Burisma, has 17 recordings of Joe and Hunter Biden as an insurance policy. | ||
| So it seems like things are about to get particularly spicy. | ||
| And I think this is probably as we enter the political season, it's going to make things bad for an already ailing president in terms of his approval rating, which is at a an apocalyptically low rating. | ||
| Historically, it's not as bad as Carter, but it's the worst we've seen outside of that for the most part. | ||
| So we'll talk about that, plus we got some other crazy news in the wake of this story being published. | ||
| What do we have? | ||
| We have Bongino Report, we've got Post Millennial Inhuman Events, as well as a few other sites being hit by a major DDoS, a cyber attack that's shutting them down. | ||
| So we'll get into all of that stuff. | ||
| And Donald Trump says that when he's elected president, he is going to send a special prosecutor after Joe Biden. | ||
| So, here we go. | ||
| It's tit for tat. | ||
| It is... | ||
| It's on. | ||

|
What's up? | |
| Thanks for having me. | ||
| It's good to be back. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Who are you? | ||
| I'm doing great. | ||
| I think this is my fourth or fifth time with you. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Good to be back. | ||
| Who? | ||
| Oh, who am I? | ||
| I don't know what it is. | ||
| Brandon Strzok, founder of the WalkAway campaign. | ||
| Yeah, the movement of people walking away from the Democratic Party and WalkAway Social, our app. | ||
| Right on. | ||
| Thanks for hanging out. | ||
| And of course, Jack Posobiec. | ||
| Been a minute, Tim. | ||
| It's been a minute. | ||
| Jack Posobiec, the host of Human Events, senior editor of a website that no one can get to because we are currently under what I am told by my tech guys, a deliberate attempt to take down humanevents.com, also a prior Navy intelligence officer. | ||
| And I think we might be talking about a little bit of how intelligence reporting works today. | ||
| It seems like the attack on Human Events, Post Memorial, Banjina Report, a couple other websites, may be related to this GOP report about Biden and these secret recordings. | ||
| So what I'm told, and I'm just looking because we're in a highly super-secret group chat here, That basically the minute we posted, the minute we published the report from this, and so people understand this is a, this is an FBI informant file that Grassley read on the floor of the Senate. | ||
| And when you and Tim, I know you know this, that when a sitting member of Congress or the Senate reads out something, even if it's classified, they cannot be prosecuted for releasing that because they're doing so on the floor of the Senate. | ||
| He uses his ability to do that as a senator to come out and say that there are 15 recordings with Hunter Biden and two of Joe Biden when he was the vice president describing all this. | ||
| Long story short, we put out the article summarizing all of that. | ||
| The whole site goes down. | ||
| So, Human Events owns Post Millennial. | ||
| Human Events goes down. | ||
| Post Millennial goes down. | ||
| We're also told Bongino Report is going down. | ||
| Some of these are coming up. | ||
| There's a few other sites. | ||
| Alright, pulling up. | ||
| Up and down. | ||
| DC Inquirer. | ||
| It's been up and down. | ||
| It's been up and down and Bungie reports down. | ||
| But we'll get into all this. | ||
| And I'm not going to say the name, but I will say that we are not on Amazon web servers. | ||
| So this is not Amazon. | ||
| So we will definitely get into all that. | ||
| Of course, Ian's here. | ||
| What's up, everybody? | ||
| Ian Crossland, happy to be here. | ||
| Let's move it along. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, and I'm Serge.com, and I think we should just get started. | |
| We got a lot to cover. | ||
| Let's get into it. | ||
| We got the story from the Washington Examiner. | ||
| Joe and Hunter Biden caught on 17 recordings with Burisma owner Grassley reveals FBI form. | ||
| Grassley reveals, FBI form says. | ||
| I love that. | ||
| That should be a semicolon and not a comma after the word owner right there. | ||
| Yeah, so we can understand the context. | ||
| Grassley is not the owner. | ||
| Grassley is revealing that there is an FBI informant saying this. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And so this is official intel to the FBI now being released to the public. | ||
| A top Senate Republican revealed Monday that an FBI informant said the Ukrainian oligarch involved in an alleged criminal bribery scheme with Joe and Hunter Biden also claimed to have 17 recordings of his conversations with the president and his son. | ||
| Grassley revealed on the Senate floor that a largely unredacted version of the Bureau's FD1023 confidential human source form said that the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter Biden allegedly has audio recordings of his conversations with them, 17 such recordings. | ||
| I want to pause right now and say, Okay, the bribery thing is really interesting. | ||
| But what we can't say for sure is that Joe Biden admitted publicly, on camera, that he threatened to illegally withhold congressionally approved loan guarantees to Ukraine unless they fired a prosecutor. | ||
| As we now know that prosecutor was investigating Burisma. | ||
| So here we are. | ||
| I guess the, correct me if I'm wrong, Jack, the bribery was that they went to Joe and said, get the prosecutor fired. | ||
| Well, and to be clear, the investigation was, so the guy's name is Mikola Zlochevsky, and so Zlochevsky is the oligarch who is in control of Burisma. | ||
| He was under investigation domestically in Ukraine. | ||
| And by the way, yes, the same Ukraine that has the war, that's been on fire, that seems like dominates all of the conversation over the last six years, when prior to the last six years, I don't even know the last time any of us even talked about Ukraine, right? | ||
| Trump's impeachment, the war, the coup in 2014, suddenly Ukraine is like everywhere. | ||
| He was under investigation for bribery inside Ukraine. | ||
| Then he goes and hires Joe Biden's son, which we know publicly, he goes and hires Joe Biden's son. | ||
| Joe Biden gets the prosecutor fired. | ||
| Then he said he's bribing Joe Biden to stop the guy who was investigating him for bribery in the first place. | ||
| Okay, so Tchaikovsky is this post-oligarch that's in control of Burisma? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| He's the guy that hired Hunter Biden? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And then he bribed Joe Biden to get a prosecutor fired to stop investigating his company? | ||
| Well, so according to these reports, it seems as though the hiring of Hunter Biden coincided with, and again, based on the report, I interviewed Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has seen a copy of the report. | ||
| She also gave me some more information stating that this confidential human source, or CHS as they say in the parlance, is someone who was one of their most highly credible. | ||
| This isn't just some walk-in, some random guy. | ||
| Hey, I heard about Joe Biden and the, uh, you know, by the way, so there's, there's a whole process. | ||
| And I remember what, even when I was an Intel agent, you know, your Intel officer that there's this question of how do you know that the source knows? | ||
| Well, you're constantly vetting placement and access. | ||
| You're constantly vetting, uh, credibility or you can go back and check, you know, did a person actually go to this place where they said they were, can you check, can you geo track them, et cetera, et cetera. | ||
| So there's a huge process that the FBI is running on this person to make sure that the reports that they're giving are credible. | ||
| Which, by the way, could also include recordings of, you know, wearing a wire, right? | ||
| As we all know from movies, etc. | ||
| So the idea is that this informant is giving that report to the FBI and saying that this hiring of Hunter, which we knew publicly, coincided with not one but two Five million dollar payments, one to Hunter Biden and one to the big guy. | ||
| So these recordings, how many? | ||
| Through shell companies. | ||
| How many of the recordings were Biden and how many were Joe and how many were Hunter? | ||
| Two Joe, 15 Hunter. | ||
| That makes sense to me because, you know, Hunter's the one who's actually working in Burisma. | ||
| He's there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Probably having a lot of conversations. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| They say, the examiner says, sources previously told the Washington examiner that the Burisma owner discussed an alleged bribe of five million dollars to Joe Biden. | ||
| There's clever ways they can run this. | ||
| Biden, according to the paid FBI informant who said he heard | ||
| this from Zlochevsky. | ||
| The sources said Zlochevsky said he believed it would be difficult to unravel the alleged bribery scheme for at | ||
| least 10 years because of the number of bank accounts involved. | ||
| There's clever ways they can run this. | ||
| They could do something like look, I've got a company in this | ||
| country that runs a couple subsidiaries that harvest wheat. | ||
| We'll have those companies hire you as a consultant through your investment firm so it looks clean and on the level. | ||
| That's how they play this game. | ||
| Then you get, like, multiple bank accounts involved where money's being transferred all around, and then you've got to prove the transfers were specifically for the bribe. | ||
| So it's very difficult. | ||
| Unless you have them on audio tape talking about what they're doing and how they're doing it. | ||
| Well, also, unless you're the FBI, which literally exists to... I mean, the FBI has... | ||
| agents that are specifically tasked with working with the U.S. | ||
| Treasury Department to actually go after and unravel those very same shell games that you're talking about. | ||
| And so what's so shocking to me is that we're seeing now, even in the report, Grassley alleges that when they first went to the FBI and asked to see the Hunter Biden file, that there were portions that were redacted relating to these audio files, that the FBI redacted that before they gave that report to Congress. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So the FBI was actually trying to and now they're gonna claim right of course the FBI will say well That's because of our informant. | ||
| That's because it came from the informant, but here's the thing You don't need to say that in the report that it came from an informant. | ||
| You can just say the FBI has information. | ||
| And the FBI, as we know, has multiple ways of receiving information. | ||
| And so their redacting that clearly raises a huge red flag of all sorts of issues, not to mention separation of powers, not to mention the administrative state versus the elected representatives. | ||
| And you really have to go back and say, look, I know a lot of people were Let's say, I'm trying to be nice here, skeptical or at least not sure of Kevin McCarthy, the House GOP in general, they said, are these guys actually going to do anything? | ||
| Are we actually going to get information out? | ||
| And I would say, look, I mean, say what you want about, you know, certain fights, certain hills to die on, et cetera, that we would not have this information right now if the Bothans, right now, if the House GOP had not brought it to us. | ||
| Tim, I know you got that reference. | ||
| Well, one more time. | ||
| I said, I said, I said, uh, shout out to all the boffins who died, who to bring his glorious spy network. | ||
| Let me, uh, I want to, I want to read this. | ||
| This is a very important paragraph in the story. | ||
| Trump and his Republican allies claim Joe Biden improperly used his position as vice president to pressure Ukraine to fire Shokin to protect his son from an investigation into Burisma. | ||
| Democrats deny this and argue the focus on Burisma was part of an effort to dirty up Joe Biden. | ||
| Well, hold on. | ||
| Everything in that paragraph is true. | ||
| I don't understand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is the same- Keep in mind- Let me just clarify it. | |
| So, when Trump and other Republicans investigate Joe Biden for overt and obvious corruption, it does in fact dirty him up in the election, and I'm sure that played a role in why they would do it. | ||
| You mean kind of like arresting your leading opponent? | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| All they're doing is they're saying Democrats deny it, but argue a part of why they would do it, which, okay. | ||
| Look, if you are running for office and you find out that your opponent is a criminal, you would absolutely be like, we must defeat this person because they're a criminal and we can't let them run this country. | ||
| So yes, a component of what you're doing is we need to expose the dirt on Joe Biden. | ||
| It's real. | ||
| This is the exact same thing that all the way back in 2019, and some of these names, maybe not Zelchevsky, but I think people have probably heard the name Burisma a lot by now. | ||
| And, you know, even at a general level, these are the same exact companies and names that came up in that infamous perfect phone call between Trump and Vladimir Zelensky, right? | ||
| The same Vladimir Zelensky. | ||
| I got my Zelensky shirt on today. | ||
| You know, I see you guys aren't rocking. | ||
| You're close, you're close. | ||
| You're showing the guns off. | ||
| But there's this idea that when Trump was talking to Zelensky and he was asking him, hey, I've heard about all of these things. | ||
| I've been watching the news. | ||
| I've been seeing that Joe Biden obviously at one point literally bragged about it on national TV that he got the guy fired. | ||
| And he's saying, look, you're in Ukraine. | ||
| You're the president of Ukraine. | ||
| Could you look into this? | ||
| Could you make a few phone calls? | ||
| Could you see what's going on? | ||
| They impeached President Trump for just asking the question about this right here, which we now know. | ||
| Keep in mind, Tim, that at the time that they did the impeachment, the FBI had all these reports on file and not a single one of them came forward and said, well, actually what President Trump is talking about is something that we have on file. | ||
| There is a criminal syndicate in the government. | ||
| I mean, I don't know how many I don't know, you know, but we know that the FBI is purposefully not prosecuting certain individuals. | ||
| And so whoever is instructing these people to do this is part of some kind of criminal syndicate. | ||
| I'm not trying to make it seem like there's a network of thousands of people with initiation or anything like that. | ||
| I'm saying certain elements of the FBI, the executive branch and the Democratic Party are absolutely subverting the law in this country in collusion with each other. | ||
| End of story. | ||
| There was that, you see that clip out of CNN? | ||
| Where the guys are like, Hillary Clinton had the cell phone smashed with hammers! | ||
| And then I think it was Alison Camerota, she's like, can we, no, no, can we get a fact check on that? | ||
| And the guy goes, yes, the Hillary team did have phones smashed with hammers and servers wiped. | ||
| And she's like, oh, you mean like with the towel? | ||
| Whoops. | ||
| It is funny when I hear people say like, Didn't Hillary Clinton pour bleach on her computer? | ||
| And it's like, oh, geez, man. | ||
| Like the the bleach bit. | ||
| Bleach bit was an app, was a program to purge a hard drive. | ||
| Which the guy found on Reddit. | ||
| Yeah, that was funny. | ||
| Was that what it was? | ||
| Well, nobody posted saying, like, I need help. | ||
| And they found his posts on the subreddit. | ||
| He's talking about, I'm working for a very important individual who really, really needs something deleted. | ||
| It is crazy to me that Donald Trump is facing a federal indictment despite the fact that Hillary Clinton did substantially worse for a fact. | ||
| We know she had classified documents in her private server that she kept. | ||
| And it was destroyed. | ||
| And all of those emails, the 30 plus thousand that we know of, were public records that she destroyed. | ||
| And nothing happened. | ||
| And she posted that picture of her hat, but her emails and smiling. | ||
| It's like they broke the law. | ||
| They got away with it. | ||
| And now that Trump's getting arrested, they want you to know that they will keep committing crimes and nothing will be done. | ||
| That's why I was talking to Jack before the show and I'm like, well, what's the next, like, what's this long game going to be? | ||
| Are they going to come out in the media and be like, but you guys, Joe Biden had to get the prosecutor fired. | ||
| Otherwise we wouldn't have had any protection against Russia when they invaded Ukraine. | ||
| We all, we did all this manipulation for your own good. | ||
| Like if they're just going to one day just... | ||
| Flip the lights on, admit it all, and say it was for your own good. | ||
| And then 90% of the population will just believe it with their jaws slacked. | ||
| That's my fear. | ||
| Well, you're right. | ||
| You're actually right about that. | ||
| That's always been the playbook when it comes to one of these things. | ||
| Because the first time you say it, it's, well, that's a conspiracy. | ||
| That's not happening. | ||
| And as Tim pointed out, that some of them are actually getting it wrong, and they're still pulling that out for The email server when actually we've gone past that one. | ||
| So the first thing they do is they say it's a conspiracy. | ||
| Then the next thing they do is they say it's contested. | ||
| Then the third thing they do is they say, well, this helps Republicans and that's the only reason Republicans are going after it. | ||
| And then finally, once you've completely proven something beyond the shadow of a doubt, they'll say, well, okay, it is happening, but it's good. | ||
| It's happening and it's happening and it's good. | ||
| And here's why it's good for the country and everyone. | ||
| That's why it's happening. | ||
| and how dare you stand against us for letting this happen. | ||
| So I don't know if that's exactly the reason they'll give, but I think you're 100% right in | ||
| that they will at some point come out and say, you know, these payments were made for the betterment | ||
| of Ukraine, the security of Ukraine, and Hunter Biden was secretly working on, you know, an | ||
| exchange program for certain forms of Ukrainian women on a, on a, a need to know and a special, | ||
| special access visa, you know, for the really, you know, high talent. People will come to me then | ||
| I'm trying to, to, you know, shadow campaign this myself in a few months, they'll come to me | ||
| whenever, after this comes out and they'll be like, but Ian, it was good that what they did | ||
| with, with Biden, with the getting people fired. And I'll be like, now I've got to figure out how to | ||
| explain to them why it's not. I I need to be so laser focused, I need to know Mikolaj Zlochevskiy inside and out, Viktor Shokin inside and out. | ||
| These names, Mikolaj Zlochevskiy, Viktor Shokin. | ||
| We have talked about those two guys, maybe like 500 times. | ||
| And I tell you, it's like I hear it, it's like it's washing over my brain every time. | ||
| Russian guys, Ukrainian names, words like Burisma, Viktor Shokin, Mikhail Zlochevsky. | ||
| Zlochevsky was an oligarch that owned Burisma. | ||
| Correct. | ||
| Correct. | ||
| Fled the country, uh, during these investigations. | ||
| Met type reported around a dozen, I believe. | ||
| And, uh, Biden comes in and gets the prosecutor fired. | ||
| Which was Victor Shokin, the prosecutor. | ||
| Victor Shokin. | ||
| So these are the names. | ||
| Victor Shokin signed a sworn affidavit saying that he was fired because of Joe Biden. | ||
| That the Ukrainian officials came to him and said, we have no choice. | ||
| Biden said, we have to fire you. | ||
| Maybe he swore, he swore to this. | ||
| There's also, and this is coming back around again, that there's audio that was released by OAN years ago. | ||
| Of phone calls between Biden and not Zelensky, but Poroshenko, who was the previous president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, prior to, they call him the chocolate man, the candy man, because he ran a, he was like sort of a chocolate oligarch. | ||
| And he's still around, by the way. | ||
| He's still a member of the parliament there. | ||
| And he's the one who ran against Zelensky in 19. | ||
| Anyway, in those calls at one point, Poroshenko says to Biden, There is nothing? | ||
| That we have found that shows that Shokin is corrupt. | ||
| We have no information that says he's doing anything wrong, but if you want us to do this, we will do it. | ||
| And Biden's pushing him saying, we need to do this. | ||
| And there's a bank and the Kolomoisky's bank needs to be taken care of, et cetera, et cetera. | ||
| And what happens after the prosecutor is fired? | ||
| Zlochevsky returns to Ukraine. | ||
| And what happened after Donald Trump makes the infamous phone call? | ||
| He flees once again. | ||
| Once he knew, he was like, uh-oh, uh-oh, they're going to start looking into me again. | ||
| And Joe Biden was like, we got someone in there who was good. | ||
| Yeah, good. | ||
| But then what's the next step? | ||
| What's the next step there? | ||
| What do the oligarchs then do? | ||
| So Kolomoisky is the other oligarch who's working with Tseltschevsky at this point, has the bank, is sort of the financial end, if you look at it that way. | ||
| He has got the bank. | ||
| Biden saying, I know this guy, you know, he's kind of an a-hole, etc, etc. | ||
| But we got to deal with him. | ||
| We got to deal with him. | ||
| That was the bank that received the IMF money. | ||
| So those oligarchs come in and say, look, we still got this problem with the presidency, etc, etc. | ||
| And, you know, now Trump's in, what do we do? | ||
| So they say, what if we can bankroll our own president here in Ukraine? | ||
| And that same oligarch ran a TV network. | ||
| And on that TV network, they had a very popular TV show called Servant of the People, all about a teacher, like a public school teacher who essentially becomes the president. | ||
| That actor Did he have any political acumen before Zelensky? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| He was just an actor? | ||
| And they were like, you're good enough? | ||
| You have a good smile? | ||
| He played the president on TV and they were like, works! | ||
| Did he have any political acumen before? | ||
| No. | ||
| He was just an actor and they were like, you're good enough. | ||
| You have a good smile. | ||
| It was a comedian and then an actor and he played the president on TV and they were like, | ||
| works. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Let's jump to this next story. | ||
| It was the same oligarchs that are being discussed on this phone call with Biden. | ||
| There is hope, my friends! | ||
| We have this report from TimCast.com. | ||
| Trump vows to appoint special prosecutor to go after Biden if elected, saying, Now that the seal is broken, in addition to closing the border and removing all of the criminal elements that have illegally invaded our country, making America energy independent and even dominant again, and immediately ending the war between Russia and Ukraine, I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the U.S., Joe Biden, the entire Biden crime family, and all others involved with the destruction of our elections, borders, and country itself. | ||
| Election interference at a level never seen before in our country, in a subsequent post. | ||
| So, now that we know that Trump is being charged, and the seal has been broken, as you said, in more ways than one. | ||
| The seal has been broken. | ||
| Well, this is it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| There's no way out of it now. | ||
| The next time a Republican gets elected, it's going to be political lawfare. 100%. | ||
| And it has to be because, you know, when he kind of campaigned on this whole, lock her up, we're going to go after Hillary Clinton. | ||
| And then I think he got elected and he went for this thing, like, let's be compassionate. | ||
| Let's unite the country. | ||
| Let's bring people together. | ||
| And it was a huge mistake. | ||
| I mean, look exactly what you're doing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I don't think I'll make that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I think that mistake will be made again. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Jack? | ||
| Getting a report now from my guys at Postmillennial. | ||
| They're saying the sites are back up. | ||
| They've got all the information from the bombshell story that resulted in a DDoS attack. | ||
| Postmillennial Human Events. | ||
| Make sure you go subscribe, by the way, to make sure that we can fend off the next DDoS attack. | ||
| Great opportunity for a plug, by the way. | ||
| All right. | ||
| But yeah, we pull up Postmillennial quite a bit on the show and we have Libby on quite a bit. | ||
| And we appreciate it. | ||
| What happened is before the show, I'm like, you know, let's see what the Post Millennial is on about and it wasn't working. | ||
| And then Jack's like, well, we just put out these big stories and sure enough, but back to Donald Trump. | ||
| I thought it was arresting point. | ||
| And yeah, no, it was too big, too big. | ||
| But Trump's gonna go after Joe Biden. | ||
| So obviously, you know, Brandon and I are in agreement. | ||
| Jack, I'm curious, what do you think? | ||
| It's gone too far. | ||
| You know, it's really gone too far at this point where you've got a situation where this, and keep in mind that it's not just, if you think it's just Joe Biden and Hunter Biden that are taking foreign money in the United States government, you've got, if you want to be serious about this, and I would say, As a way to take this out of the necessarily left-right dichotomy of it, Democrats are going after Republicans. | ||
| So Biden and all his guys are going after Trump and they're saying, oh, you didn't say it was declassified, even though he's the president, he has declassification ability. | ||
| They're going after him for all this stuff that we already know that Hillary got away with. | ||
| To take it out of that, I would say that you don't just need the special prosecutor for Biden. | ||
| Do that, obviously, because we've got way too much information now. | ||
| Plus, by the way, apparently there was an investigation that, for whatever reason, this level, the highest levels of the FBI, are protecting the Bidens. | ||
| Even though we know that they already have this information. | ||
| They had the information when President Trump was asking about it. | ||
| They wouldn't give it to him. | ||
| He goes and asks Ukraine about it because he's like, well, if I can't get it from my side, I'm going to ask the other side because he's a problem solver, right? | ||
| You know, he's a pragmatic guy, businessman that we need an entire commission. | ||
| I think we need a federal commission about foreign money that's going in. | ||
| This is something where, look, If you are a Bernie Sanders supporter, or I guess these days you would say an RFK supporter, and you are actually concerned about money in politics, wouldn't it be a massive issue if there were foreign oligarchs and foreign funds that were paying into our politics and shouldn't we know about that? | ||
| And it's probably worse than just that. | ||
| I mean, I'd imagine the Chinese Communist Party is... | ||
| heavily investing in political candidates, and they can do it through very special ways. | ||
| They can give money to a corporation that does, as I was mentioning earlier... | ||
| Dianne Feinstein turned this into a cottage industry for her and her husband. | ||
| It's not so easy to prove these things. | ||
| A company that sells sombreros in China sends two million dollars to a company that, you know, makes a specific fiber they use, and they say, here's what we do. | ||
| We have that company double its order, so it looks totally normal. | ||
| Then that company does the fibering, hires a few consultants at a couple hundred thousand dollars, who then hire this plumber, and so it all looks legitimate, and how do you know which one was the bride? | ||
| They do these things in Chicago all the time. | ||
| Hey, hey, you know that contract that's coming up? | ||
| Get us that contract for, you know, this amount of money, and then I'll talk to my brother, and we'll make sure that he buys from you next time, and then that's kickbacks. | ||
| That's how it all works. | ||
| So China can say, we're gonna buy X product from your company, so long as X amounts of those dollars go to this political action committee through you, because we can't legally do it, and no one will be able to prove it. | ||
| Well, or just looking at the Feinstein situation. | ||
| So Senator Feinstein in California was one. | ||
| So she's green energy, right? | ||
| She's climate change. | ||
| We have to protect the environment. | ||
| What did she do? | ||
| She used legislation and she championed legislation in this country to prevent the development of Rare earth elements within the United States, that we are not going to go after those. | ||
| We are going to protect them. | ||
| We're going to leave this, this sacred land exactly the way it is exactly. | ||
| Whereas meanwhile, what's her husband doing? | ||
| Her husband is being given deals in China with the exact same companies that are going after rare earth elements and then purchasing those resources and the mineral rights all around the world for China. | ||
| How did they corner the market? | ||
| They cornered the senators first. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Man, what were you going to say? | ||
| I was going to say Trump's got to arrest all of them, not just Biden. | ||
| This is my feeling about what Trump's saying. | ||
| He's like, when I get back into office, I'm going to arrest them. | ||
| I'm going to set things right. | ||
| And what it feels like is a story of like, he came in the first time, he's like, all these poisonous snakes, I'm going to kill all these snakes and make it snake. | ||
| And we'll be like, we're like, okay, good. | ||
| Less poisonous snakes. | ||
| He went in, he didn't destroy the snakes. | ||
| And then he got bit by one and now he's poisoned. | ||
| And he's like, when I get back in, I'm going to kill all the snakes. | ||
| And you're like, dude, Relax, rest. | ||
| You've been poisoned. | ||
| They're already hitting him with 70 plus federal felony charges. | ||
| Dude, you're in no position to run for president right now. | ||
| Because they're terrified of him. | ||
| I know. | ||
| He's absolutely in the position to run. | ||
| He's in a position where they can take him off the ballot if he's being indicted for felonies. | ||
| There's a reason that nobody else is being targeted like this. | ||
| I mean, I think that the Trump movement singularly represents the most viable anti-establishment movement in this country, and because it attained critical mass, that's the reason you're seeing this pathogen-like response to it by the system that you're | ||
| seeing. You'll see Republicans and Democrats will link arms, the Bushes and | ||
| the Clintons and the Obamas, to go after Trump because they know that he's the | ||
| one person that actually represents a threat to them on a much grander | ||
| scale. | ||
| And by the way, if he wasn't leading in all the polls, but CBS YouGov has him up, what, 38 points or something right now? | ||
| It's not exactly like a pro-Trump poll. | ||
| He's leading Biden in many national polls. | ||
| I think if he wasn't leading, you wouldn't see these charges. | ||
| You wouldn't see anything about him. | ||
| That would fit more the, hey, let's let this guy go out to pasture kind of model. | ||
| You think he's too damaged? | ||
| Well, I think not psychologically, mentally, anything like that. | ||
| Just he's in a legal state right now where he's going to have a hard time getting his name on a ballot. | ||
| But that's the point. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| So what do you mean getting his name on the ballot? | ||
| Well, from what I understand, if he's indicted for federal charges and then found guilty on any of them, they can take his name off the ballots. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| Is that not right? | ||
| Well, some people are saying that the indictment states will make moves to remove his name from the ballot. | ||
| He can still run. | ||
| He can still be elected. | ||
| He can pardon himself. | ||
| I don't know if it's true, but people have chatted to us saying that. | ||
| So, there's two pieces to this. | ||
| One is that, so the only thing that can prevent you from being president is an impeachment. | ||
| Like, fully prevent you from being president is impeachment. | ||
| It's the only thing the Constitution says. | ||
| But you mean conviction, right? | ||
| Impeachment and conviction. | ||
| Impeachment and conviction, yes. | ||
| A fully carried through conviction and impeachment, which has never happened by the way in US history. | ||
| Then the other piece of it, which I think is this sort of loophole that they tried to do this with Marjorie Taylor Greene and they were attempting to do with Madison Cawthorn down in North Carolina, was these Civil War era laws that are on the books in some of the states that say if you were a member of an insurrection, That you can no longer hold office in the United States and that these laws do apply in these states. | ||
| They were written obviously for Confederates to say that, okay, if you had been some official in the Confederacy, now Georgia has been admitted back to the Union, Mississippi, et cetera, Alabama, that you can't go and run for office again because you were part of that. | ||
| So what they're trying to do is apply that. | ||
| So if, and I believe they will, by the way, like this, this indictment tomorrow on Trump, Um, is not going to be the only one. | ||
| They are going to continue on with the indictment in Georgia over, you know, find the votes, which, you know, it's like just Trump talking a phone call. | ||
| And then I do believe that they're going to go after and brand. | ||
| Obviously, you've got more information on this. | ||
| They're going to take. | ||
| Those Proud Boy and Oath Keeper indictments for seditious conspiracy. | ||
| And they're going to, and Julie Kelly's talked about this as well, so I'm not going to say this isn't 100% my idea, that they're going to just switch the names for President Trump because that then, by the way, in a DC district, would trigger those laws in those states and set up a I mean, we're obviously in uncharted territory, like massive uncharted territory here in terms of all of these things. | ||
| But it would set up a huge legal challenge for him. | ||
| Now, when they did this with Marjorie Taylor Greene, the judge basically ruled for her 100%. | ||
| But Marjorie Taylor Greene had never been indicted and convicted of anything that would be considered an insurrection. | ||
| In fact, up until this sadistic conspiracy case, no one had been charged with anything that would be Considered even close to that. | ||
| And so the idea being is that is there a possibility? | ||
| I mean, it's some like insane figment of a Blue Anon type deranged conspiracy, but that's literally how far they're willing to go to try to stop Trump. | ||
| There's a smaller story besides Proud Boys and Oath Keepers that's already happened that a lot of people don't know about because there's not enough reporting on January 6th. | ||
| There's a J6-er named Coy Griffin. | ||
| He was a city councilman in New Mexico. | ||
| And he got a misdemeanor charge, didn't go inside the Capitol on January 6. | ||
| And I really want people to pay attention to this. | ||
| So if you're watching and listening, look it up and share it. | ||
| But he was a city councilman in New Mexico, got a misdemeanor charge for standing outside the Capitol, didn't go inside the building. | ||
| But the Democrats in New Mexico went after him to have him removed from office for this very reason. | ||
| And the judge went for it. | ||
| And he was actually removed from his position for being involved in insurrection. | ||
| And so he's now having to appeal that, but the point is that the precedent has already | ||
| been set. | ||
| Yes, we have. | ||
| We've now removed somebody from office for insurrection connected to January 6th. | ||
| So that's we have precedent for that now. | ||
| And of course, they're going to do that to Donald. | ||
| No, I think you're exactly right. | ||
| I think I think this is what it's so you know, people look at some of these J6 cases and | ||
| they'll say, OK, this is a one off. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| They're building towards this. | ||
| They're building towards the precedent and they're moving slowly and slowly and slowly to get to the point where, and by the way, this case down in Miami, they know this is a weak case. | ||
| Plus they also know that because of the district, the jury pool down there, | ||
| which is an area that almost went for Trump in 20, that decisively went for DeSantis in 22. | ||
| I mean, you try and tell me that you're not gonna pull 12 people | ||
| and not at least get a couple of like based Cuban, you know, Miami Cuban guys on there that are like, | ||
| look, we saw this in communist Cuba. | ||
| We know exactly what you're doing. | ||
| We're not gonna go along with this. | ||
| You'll see jury nullification. | ||
| You'll definitely get a chance of that. | ||
| In DC, you never will. | ||
| Not if your name is Donald Trump. | ||
| And this is the big challenge. | ||
| The jurisdictions are everything. | ||
| The political and cultural bifurcation in this country is so near-absolute that if... | ||
| You can have any liberal district just be like, we'll indict them. | ||
| They can indict you for anything. | ||
| Some random liberal district in Washington can indict anyone and then just, you can indict a ham sandwich. | ||
| And then the people in that district will convict because they don't care about any kind of constitution, community, or laws. | ||
| They will just say, now you're guilty. | ||
| So that's why we talk about Trump and these indictments. | ||
| I'm asking people, do you really think a New York jury is going to acquit Donald Trump? | ||
| You really think a D.C. | ||
| jury will acquit Donald? | ||
| Well, he's going to be in Miami. | ||
| So that's a maybe, for sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Miami, I would say he's got a 50-50 chance. | ||
| Probably even stronger than that, because there's no... Keep in mind that Miami, even though that's where the court is, the district itself is actually bigger than just Miami-Dade County. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| the Southern District of Florida. | ||
| So you've got, I mean, remember how many people moved down because of COVID, et cetera. | ||
| We all know the story, right? | ||
| And the trending of Latinos and the legalized Venezuelans that have gone there, the Cubans. | ||
| So I think he stands a pretty strong fighting chant in that area, just based on the jury pool demographics. | ||
| But look at the rape civil trial in New York. | ||
| You had a guy on that jury who even said he had seen a few episodes of Timcast, | ||
| still saying that Donald Trump is responsible for raping that woman in the most insane story we've ever | ||
| heard. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| So you look at New York, and I'm like, bro, they're gonna convict him, and the judge is going to say jail time. | ||
| I don't see a scenario where a judge is like, well, now hold on, Donald Trump's a good guy, so we're not gonna lock him up. | ||
| New York is a very bad venue for Donald Trump, but it's not as bad as D.C., I don't think. | ||
| And he's actually more popular in New York than people think. | ||
| I mean, overwhelmingly, people are against him there, but he's more popular than people think. | ||
| No, I don't I don't see so first what will happen is the jurors identities will get leaked and Then the judge will probably be like who cares something like that will happen Then you're going to hear story like no juror who is entering the courthouse to pass judgment on Donald Trump to issue a verdict is going to Whether they like Trump or not, I just don't see it happening. | ||
| The reason that one guy probably said, yeah, you know what, Trump is responsible for this, is because they probably said to him, listen, they're probably sitting in the jury deliberation room, whatever room it's called. | ||
| And they said, I don't know or care about Donald Trump. | ||
| I don't want Antifa throwing bricks at my window. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Guilty. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Well, that's a that's a tampered jury. | ||
| You need to look. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| How do we expect to have an impartial trial in this situation? | ||
| Because this is this is the case that that happens when you have a country that's been so bifurcated the way we have, where our access to information has totally changed because of the Internet. | ||
| Where and and the rise of cable news that you've set up a case now where there is one part so conservatives generally will say, well, you know, I want to hear the other side. | ||
| I want to call out. | ||
| We want to we want to keep everyone on the same standard. | ||
| We want to make sure that you know, everyone's playing by the rules. | ||
| Where's the left? | ||
| The left will just sit there and say, I want to destroy the right. | ||
| I want to destroy anyone who's related to Donald Trump, who's related to January 6th. | ||
| You see case after case after case. | ||
| That's why they're putting Bannon on trial in New York, right? | ||
| Bannon wasn't even in New York, but they're gonna put him on trial in New York. | ||
| That's why Bannon, he's got his four month sentence. | ||
| That might be coming up soon, by the way. | ||
| That's already happened for Bannon, that he may have to serve four months and it's looking that way. | ||
| But you also had to, to Brandon's point, there was a case where on that, in that very same, so Steve was, Raising money for this we build the wall Endeavor where it was like this private building the wall thing and one of the guys so one of the guys took a plea deal Steve got pardoned and there was another guy who actually went to trial. | ||
| This is the federal case not the state case There was another guy who went to trial in New York on this and there was one juror Who sat there the entire time and said you know what you guys are a bunch of liberals you guys are just Repeating whatever the government tells you. | ||
| And you can even see in the, like Politico has the report, the man repeated anti-government conspiracy theories and through the entire trial and refused to go along with anything the other people said. | ||
| So somebody, I think his name was Roberto, that someone actually did get in, like a normal person got onto one of the trials. | ||
| And stood up to these guys. | ||
| And stood up. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So was it a hung jury or something? | ||
| So it was a hung jury. | ||
| But that being said, not exactly a great legal strategy if you're, if you're hoping for that. | ||
| But the media also has gotten very involved in the justice system, and I think that I wouldn't be surprised if they're bullying jurors and stuff as well. | ||
| I mean, throughout my J6 criminal case, I had reporters from CNN contacting my prosecutors, asking them to rethink giving me a plea deal. | ||
| I mean, literally just inserting themselves into the system. | ||
| MSNBC had a guy chasing the Kyle Rittenhouse jury. | ||
| Remember the jury was going back and they lied about it. | ||
| They lied about that. | ||
| It was happening. | ||
| And they, and so MSNBC put out the statement or, and then NBC as well. | ||
| Cause it was like, he was an NBC stringer basically. | ||
| And they said, Oh, we don't have anyone doing that. | ||
| And then they found the produce. | ||
| And then they found the guy and said, no, here's the producer. | ||
| This I work for him because he was, you know, he wanted to stay out of jail basically. | ||
| And a hundred percent that's, that is 100% what they do. | ||
| Let's jump to this next story. | ||
| We got this from TimCast.com. | ||
| The Daily Wire has received about 200 violations from YouTube regarding coverage of transgenderism. | ||
| Jeremy Boring quote, YouTube only does more damage the longer it keeps its finger on the scales. | ||
| Candace Owens and Michael Knowles have both been suspended for seven days from Friday. | ||
| Well, they were suspended completely? | ||
| Suspended completely. | ||
| So they can't post? | ||
| They cannot post videos. | ||
| I didn't realize that. | ||
| And well, funny enough, no one's writing about it. | ||
| Yeah, if you look it up, it'll just say demonetized. | ||
| But Jeremy Boring, Jeremy says, on Friday, Candace Owens and Michael Knowles were suspended for seven days after receiving their second strike. | ||
| And Jordan Peterson was given his first strike, three in 90 days, and your account is terminated. | ||
| I don't think this has anything to do with the trans issue, to be completely honest. | ||
| I think what we're seeing with Fox News, with Project Veritas, and now The Daily Wire, Anybody who is prominent and vocal and is a threat to the establishment is starting to get hit particularly hard. | ||
| Kind of like DDoS attacks over at the Postmillennial and Human Events, where if you go and subscribe, you can help us prevent... But in all seriousness, yes. | ||
| Postmillennial, Bongino Report, Human Events just got hit, as we're preparing to do this show, with a major DDoS attack. | ||
| It was all coordinated. | ||
| There's no way. | ||
| Look, you know, we had on, um, I think it was John Cardillo, and we were talking about Veritas, and I said, I find it very strange that Fox News and Veritas did basically the same thing to O'Keefe and Tucker. | ||
| Suspend them so they can't work, but don't release them from their contracts so they can't go anywhere else either. | ||
| That's a very specific strategy to take against prominent individuals in the cultural debate and the culture war. | ||
| As for the Daily Wire, They're not big Trump guys! | ||
| You know, many of their personalities are very much for Ron DeSantis, but either way, they're challenging the cultural establishment, the norms, and the machine, and so what they're saying is that YouTube is actively, employees at YouTube are actively going through year-old videos and issuing strikes and takedowns for posts that they had no problem with before. | ||
| Wait, so this isn't like the Daily Wire, and I'm sorry, I haven't read the story, but this isn't like the Daily Wire launched some new campaign that broke all the rules. | ||
| It's that the rules have actually shifted and they're going retroactively against old videos that were okay, which by the way, YouTube recently changed the rules regarding elections. | ||
| So there was a certain topic that we could only talk about here in the third hour, which we could now talk about on the regular show. | ||
| That's actually not necessarily true. | ||
| We we I talked with Steve Bannon about the election issue and he outright said he thought the election was stolen. | ||
| They just had this weird rule that I think only applied to YouTube's rules only apply to their actual targets, and the rules are arbitrary, is the easiest way to put it. | ||
| I mean, that's what I'm getting at. | ||
| When The Hill, I think it was The Hill Rising, I believe, with Sager and Crystal Ball, Sager and Jetty and Crystal Ball, they had a clip, I think it was them, I could be wrong, they had a clip of Donald Trump at a rally. | ||
| Because they don't do it anymore. | ||
| And then Donald Trump at the rally said the election was stolen, and YouTube took their video down. | ||
| There were also like news reports where they did the same thing. | ||
| But then you had David Pakman, who had on Mike Lindell, and David allowed Mike Lindell to say, His entire theory of how the election was stolen. | ||
| And I asked YouTube, why is it that David Pakman can host Mike Lindell and say, Mike, tell us all, tell us everything. | ||
| And then he does. | ||
| But then you take down a clip from a rally that was on the news of Donald Trump saying a thing. | ||
| It's because the rules were arbitrary, as they are now. | ||
| YouTube didn't change the rules on transgenderism, they're changing their interpretation of what breaks the rules. | ||
| That's what they're doing. | ||
| So if, you know, Matt Walsh or Michael Knowles, and Michael Knowles especially, makes a very simple and academic argument about his views on transgenderism or something like that, they'll say, okay, well, that didn't cross the line. | ||
| Year later, you know what? | ||
| Nah, it did. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Boom. | |
| Because what is hate speech? | ||
| It's interpretable. | ||
| There's no clearly defined line that you can or cannot cross. | ||
| It's just, uh, you're against it, so it's hate speech. | ||
| Take you down. | ||
| I think this is a lot to do with the election cycle is here. | ||
| Don't be surprised if they start coming at us in some way, somehow, whatever that may be. | ||
| They're already coming after you. | ||
| And I'm talking about political interests. | ||
| And we're going to dig into this as much as possible. | ||
| I'm talking about super PACs, political interests, hackers, probably rogue elements of the intel agencies we've already seen. | ||
| Foreign states. | ||
| Foreign states. | ||
| I mean, if Ukraine's involved in this, obviously they don't want these tapes coming out. | ||
| Have you not experienced the retroactive... Your episode, Brandon! | ||
| There was that! | ||
| That's a bunch of times with WalkAway. | ||
| I wasn't on that episode, what happened? | ||
| Don't know! | ||
| The last time you were here, we did an episode. | ||
| And one of the clips was removed, and your full episode was removed. | ||
| I believe the clip came from the full episode. | ||
| And we got an email from YouTube saying, we know that you didn't intend to break the rules, but you did. | ||
| So we're removing these videos, but not applying a strike to your channel. | ||
| And then the video was taken down. | ||
| Wait, wait, wait. | ||
| Have you seen what Darren Beatty's been talking about, about his clips from here? | ||
| So IRL from IRL where and I'd have to go back and look exactly what it was but they he had a clip from IRL from like forever ago talking about Ray apps like I mean easily over 18 months ago where you could go on Twitter and I tried this and you were clicking on it and it wouldn't play. | ||
| On Twitter. | ||
| On Twitter. | ||
| So it was a clip from IRL, on Twitter, and it was like, and I tried it on multiple devices, I tried it on like, you know, on Wi-Fi, off Wi-Fi, it would not, like, it would start, and then it wouldn't, and then it would just go to the spin, and it would lock. | ||
| I think that BD show was taken down too. | ||
| Which one? | ||
| I think that Darren BD episode had been taken down by us. | ||
| Well, we took it down and put it on Rumble, and it's actually our most viewed episode ever. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, it's got like eight or nine million views. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| I'll tell you a crazy story. | ||
| In, I think it was 2017, I could be wrong, I went to Davos during the World Economic Forum. | ||
| I was in the peripheral events, crypto was a big component, so flew out and I was like, alright, recorded some, I think I was only doing like one video per day at that time, so I like recorded a video in advance, flew to Davos, Three days of videos that I produced there are gone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, wow. | |
| No idea how or why, never received a message or a notice. | ||
| Just on my youtube.com slash TimCast channel, you can go to the date. | ||
| And there was, I discovered this years later when there was a specific video I made about the case for Bitcoin coming out of Davos and how all of these, you know, worldly elite types were very interested in crypto. | ||
| And I was like, I want to find that video that I did. | ||
| I interviewed somebody in a bar, gone. | ||
| And I was like, where are my videos? | ||
| They're just gone. | ||
| This has happened a couple times. | ||
| Another time was I produced a video on something called the Isdal Woman. | ||
| You ever hear this story? | ||
| No. | ||
| The Isdal Woman in Norway, in Bergen, Norway. | ||
| It was a woman who was found up in the mountains just outside of the town of Bergen. | ||
| of the city and she was dead. They said from smoke inhalation they found a bunch of passports or something. | ||
| The working theory is that she was Mossad and she was tracking down former Nazis and | ||
| ending their existence, but this time she did not succeed. | ||
| Don't know for sure exactly if that's true. It's a mystery. | ||
| Everyone wonders what it was all about. | ||
| That video's gone. | ||
| Now that one, I can't tell you why. | ||
| And you know, I thought it was a cool little mystery ghost story, like 10 minute thing. | ||
| And one day I went to find it and share with somebody, gone. | ||
| The Davos thing, I wonder if that one's a little on the nose. | ||
| Here I am in the peripheral, I didn't go in the event, I had no access to any of that stuff. | ||
| But outside of the World Economic Forum, a bunch of people show up and put on peripheral parties and events, because they want to basically like suckle the teat of influence outside of there. | ||
| Yeah, and they're hoping that their peripheral event will get attention. | ||
| And so I'm there, I put three videos together as I was doing daily videos, and they just got erased. | ||
| So, I'll just put it this way. | ||
| YouTube, very much so, secretly takes videos down. | ||
| There's an individual who is a whistleblower, they called him, for the CIA, which resulted in Trump's impeachment, and I don't even know the rules on saying this guy's name anymore, but you did say his name! | ||
| I did say his name! | ||
| Nothing happened! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Maybe that's why they got mad. | ||
| But these videos have also been taken down without notice. | ||
| Carrick Aramela. | ||
| Carrick. | ||
| Carrick Aramela. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Good old Carrick. | ||
| There was a period where even though his name was being reported widely in the press, Rand Paulson, speaking on the Senate floor, unrelated issue, mentioned the guy's name from a report, and YouTube deleted a C-SPAN clip. | ||
| Fox News clip as well. | ||
| They were taking this down and they had no justification. | ||
| There was no rule violation. | ||
| It is obvious that there are intelligence agency assets interlinked with YouTube the same as Twitter and Facebook and we know it. | ||
| We know who's really behind all this, Tim. | ||
| Santa Claus. | ||
| They. | ||
| They're doing it. | ||
| I was watching Justice League. | ||
| It was them again? | ||
| It was them. | ||
| I was watching Justice League, and it's this really funny clip. | ||
| I started laughing super hard. | ||
| The show's from 2005, but it's Superman being, you know, Shazam, Captain Marvel quits the team, and then Superman's like, he's right, and then Batman goes, they set you up, Clark. | ||
| And he goes, what does it matter anyway? | ||
| They and then he goes, they, and then it plays ominous music and it shows all the like Justice League looking at | ||
| each other. | ||
| It's funny because they is a reference to the powerful establishment, the corporate elites, the wealthy elites, | ||
| but the media for some reason has been desperate to turn it into specifically Jewish people. | ||
| So it's like when we when we say colloquially they they will try to claim you're talking about is like I'm usually | ||
| talking about like oil companies and banks. | ||
| Well, it's contextual as well. | ||
| Like, for example, you were just talking about Davos. | ||
| So in this case, you'd obviously be referring to the World Economic Forum having some kind of joined at the hip, behind the scenes relationship with the leaders of YouTube. | ||
| So it makes sense for you to say they in that sense. | ||
| Well, no, I don't think World Economic Forum. | ||
| So much longer to be able to say that. | ||
| I think intelligence agencies. | ||
| I think. | ||
| We'll talk about the Davos clip specifically. | ||
| I still think that's U.S. | ||
| intelligence agencies. | ||
| I will say that I know for a fact the U.S. | ||
| intelligence agencies have been very, very interested in Bitcoin and continue to be, from even back when I was still surveying to way into the future. | ||
| And I had interviewed some prominent figures in the political space, and without warning, without a strike, without an email, the videos were taken down. | ||
| So I wonder if they were like, yo, we don't want that person on camera. | ||
| They shouldn't have done that. | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| Well, the video's been publicly viewed by 50,000 people. | ||
| If we give a strike, it's gonna make some waves and we don't want that to happen, so just wait a little bit, remove it without saying anything, and it's gone. | ||
| That's a great- it's like stealth editing. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Going into- and so, with the thousands of videos we've produced, the thousands of videos Daily Wire- I bet Daily Wire doesn't even know the videos that were taken down. | ||
| Because how often are you going back? | ||
| You know, or are you looking at your total number of videos? | ||
| I mean, it's just, you know, you're, you're, you're churning out content constantly. | ||
| You're not like sitting there looking at, Hey, I'm missing five videos, you know? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I think the daily wire guy, this thing is like personal, uh, after like, what was a month ago, Matt Walsh got demonetized and then they went, we're officially going to Twitter. | ||
| I think Matt Walsh show is not officially on Twitter. | ||
| That is what the home of the Matt Walsh show. | ||
| So people at Google understand the people at Daily Wire have no loyalty to Google and they're like, all right, these guys are on their way out anyway. | ||
| I mean, you're seeing, and that is a broader story, right? | ||
| So you are seeing right now. | ||
| A broader showdown, because Elon has certainly been making some overtures suggesting that he might get into the online video marketplace, that he might get into this. | ||
| Periscope, they're talking about bringing that back. | ||
| He's looking at different ways to monetize Twitter, so if Twitter video, people posting to Twitter could potentially be something. | ||
| But also, YouTube is facing a ton of competition for Rumble right now, and they're starting to feel the heat. | ||
| They're absolutely starting to feel the heat. | ||
| I mean, it's crazy when you look at some of these Rumble videos and they have massive viewership, thousands of live viewers, tens of thousands of views per video, and even the videos we put up get a decent amount of hits in the tens of thousands. | ||
| That's something we've not seen any rival be able to pull off until now. | ||
| We've um so we just on on human events so we just took my daily show and we were switched it to a live format in the afternoon now 2 p.m hey check it out and we we noticed immediately like a tenfold increase in our rumble numbers just overnight wow the people love it they say like they it's it's a little bit more in the mix you know it's live so people like that format but suddenly all of a sudden i think rumble it's yeah you know and look like you know i mean i love the guys at rumble but i'm sure that they are Giving more priority to live video because they realize that's a capability they have that they need to have if they want to compete against YouTube, Twitch, etc. | ||
| Everything that's out there. | ||
| Yeah, I think if you make internet videos that you should probably be backing them up on across multiple platforms. | ||
| I used to think like All my stuff's on YouTube. | ||
| It's safe now in 10,000 years. | ||
| It used to be that way, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Unfortunately... Well, especially now they're going back and taking, you know, old content down for new rules, you know, as they become more insane. | ||
| Things that you made years ago may be violating things that they've now decided you're not allowed to say. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And they'll retroactively give you a strike and delete your channel. | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| Elon Musk can't just swing in and buy every platform out there. | ||
| I mean, I wish, but no, it's not going to happen. | ||
| The strike thing feels very weird that they struck the channel for something that happened a while ago. | ||
| Yeah, well, the strikes, we don't, I don't know where the strikes came from for Daily Wire, but so 200 violations, and I think, let me pull up the thread from Jeremy, what did he say over the last few months? | ||
| What'll happen is as a social media admin, if you see an account that's questionable and you're like, I think this violates terms, but it's not overt. | ||
| So I'm not going to block this thing. | ||
| Cause you err on the side of like, let it up, let it stay up. | ||
| And then it, but it builds. | ||
| And then you'll start to have this like inventory of like disputable content from this one creator. | ||
| And they'll have like seven things that they've done where you're like, these are seven questionable things. | ||
| And then over and over. | ||
| And then all of a sudden they'll do one that crosses the line. | ||
| You're like, all right, all of them crossed the line now. | ||
| Not really an ethical way to do it, but that is what happens. | ||
| It does seem like a good portion of them are demonetization violations. | ||
| And so, we've gotten our share of those too. | ||
| I don't think I've gotten any hate speech demonetizations. | ||
| It's usually like graphic. | ||
| It's like, oh we demonetized it because it's adult content or something. | ||
| It's like showing violence or conflict or adult themes. | ||
| But not for hateful derogatory content like they're going after the Daily Wire. | ||
| We're pretty religious about not doing that on this show. | ||
| I mean, we will talk with our guests before we go live about what not to say, what violates YouTube's terms so everyone's up to speed. | ||
| And we got like a 99% accuracy, right? | ||
| That's absolutely not true, Ian. | ||
| On this show? | ||
| 98% maybe? | ||
| We may be mentioned to like 1 out of 15 guests what YouTube's rules are. | ||
| I want to think it's more than that, like six out of ten. | ||
| And that's why we end up having to take episodes down because people think that they, they think this show is like sitting in your friend's living room having a beer as opposed to primetime cable TV talk or something like that. | ||
| So I usually tell people, if it does, so we used to have a card that said like, this is what YouTube's rules are. | ||
| We don't have rules YouTube does. | ||
| If you want to say these things and the show gets taken down, understand that's what will happen. | ||
| And so I try to keep a balance to it where I'm like, I'll tell people, look man, you can say whatever you want. | ||
| If you've come all the way out here to come on this show and then you want to say things you know will break the rules, we'll roll our eyes and then the episode gets taken down. | ||
| So if you don't care about people seeing the episode, like, totally get it. | ||
| But we stopped showing people YouTube's rules because they would then intentionally Break them, or just only talk about that? | ||
| And we were like, dude, we showed you the YouTube policies, not so that you could sit here and just only talk about that, or to intentionally try and break the rules. | ||
| So then we're like, okay, just like, dude, don't make allusions to violence, all right? | ||
| And then YouTube had a rule about the election. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| In fact, most of those rules, they're not actually enforceable as long as it's a debate and not overt. | ||
| But the reason I push back, Ian, because it's actually very, very frustrating that we don't tell everybody when they come on what YouTube's rules are, and then we end up having to take episodes down, lest we get suspended for a week. | ||
| Yeah, sometimes you'll go 3 hours, or 2 hours, I guess we do, 2 hours, and an hour and 59 minutes of it is totally cool, but 30 seconds go by and something gets said and you're like, well... | ||
| That's... we were batting 99.98%, but that's one moment. | ||
| You can't trim episodes. | ||
| You can't trim things out. | ||
| I don't know why they took your episode down that we did, Brandon. | ||
| No idea. | ||
| They did not tell me. | ||
| We talked about trans stuff a lot that night. | ||
| Yeah, but we're not like... | ||
| You know, the one thing I tell people is try to keep it academic. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Make your criticisms fierce and passionate, but, you know, make them academic and not just generally trying to insult somebody. | ||
| And so we're usually fine about it, and I have no idea what we could have done. | ||
| Sorry to interrupt. | ||
| What is their policy about misgendering? | ||
| I don't think there is one. | ||
| You don't? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Because I remember we talked a lot about Dylan Mulvaney in that episode and you were, you know, staunchly arguing that he's a man and we were kind of like having that discussion. | ||
| And my position has been on all these episodes, we'll see if they retroactively enforce this, is that Dylan is a character like Borat intentionally insulting women and trans people. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And now Dylan has that statement saying I want to move beyond this and be a comedian. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And a lesbian. | ||
| That's part of his comedy. | ||
| And actually that clip was him saying that he's attracted to trans women, not biological females. | ||
| Oh, sorry. | ||
| But the clip was cut off. | ||
| What Mulvaney was arguing To his dad was that he's attracted to women and his dad was | ||
| like, oh wow, and he was like no Trans women cuz trans women are women. That's what he was | ||
| saying Not that he likes females, but my position has always been | ||
| that Mulvaney is in I believe it's a character intending to mock trans people | ||
| like I guess fine like some some He's playing camp. | ||
| That's how he described it. | ||
| filing following around Dill Mulvaney and then found that you know, like a normal life | ||
| like he doesn't dress like that or act like that at all. | ||
| But I don't I don't necessarily care to get all that. | ||
| I will just say that I'm saying it goes to your point. | ||
| He's playing camp. | ||
| That's how he described it. | ||
| Like he's campy, you know? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And you look at like Borat as Bruno. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Was like a fake gay guy and being over-the-top and insulting and, you know, Ron Paul got really mad about it. | ||
| That's what I see with Mulvaney. | ||
| But, uh, so your episode gets taken down and we have no idea why. | ||
| They won't tell us. | ||
| I bet that's part of it because that was right when the Bud Light boycott was kicking off hard and there's a lot of people talking about Dylan and a lot of videos got pulled over the course of like a week period or something. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Including something I think by Michael Knowles. | ||
| There's something interesting, too, when it comes to, like, Fox News and other cable networks. | ||
| I have never been told one time I can't say a thing. | ||
| Like, they've never even said, hey, remember, no swearing. | ||
| I've never even been told that. | ||
| You know, you go on, I don't know if you've ever, you've done TV hits and stuff, I'd imagine, both you guys. | ||
| A lot, yeah. | ||
| Have they ever told you, like, okay, now don't forget when you're on, this is FCC Airwaves, so you can't say these things? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Yeah, I've never had that happen. | ||
| No, and Fox Nation, you can swear, but the cable network, you can't. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I've never had someone sit me down and say anything like that. | ||
| I mean, typically, you know, you'll be told, like, This is what we're going to discuss in the hit. | ||
| We want to bring you on about, um, uh, like, you know, like when I put my Antifa book out there. | ||
| So, you know, I did a lot of TV hits for that. | ||
| So you're going to talk about Antifa. | ||
| You're going to talk about this. | ||
| You're going to talk about this is the flow. | ||
| It's this long. | ||
| I, it's never anything about that. | ||
| They're never like, don't say the F word tonight. | ||
| No. | ||
| Yeah, we always tell people, like, we try not to swear. | ||
| If you do, no one's gonna cry about it, but there might be kids listening, and they go, oh, okay. | ||
| I guess, realistically, the onus is on you to understand FCC regulations if you're gonna go do a show, an FCC-guided show. | ||
| You really are supposed to know, otherwise you're not gonna get welcomed back. | ||
| I was on Glenn Beck's radio show, and I said, Dick. | ||
| I said I was being a dick, and then he was like, just a reminder, we're on FCC Airwaves, but, you know, anyway. | ||
| And I'm like, can you not say dick? | ||
| Like, I didn't say, like, male genitals. | ||
| I said, like, I was being a dick. | ||
| The word literally in that context means a rude person, you know? | ||
| And a few people have crossed the line on air on Fox, and that's been awkward, and those people have not been asked back. | ||
| There have been a few moments like that. | ||
| Didn't they? | ||
| That have happened. | ||
| Who was, uh... Ana Paulina Luna. | ||
| No, Matt Walsh. | ||
| Or was it Matt Walsh? | ||
| Who was like, they stopped booking him after he said something on the air? | ||
| Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, he called, he said that Greta Thunberg was developmentally disabled. | ||
| Is that what happened? | ||
| But that's true. | ||
| I mean, like, she's autistic or something? | ||
| And I think he referenced this, some factual statement, and they were like, don't say that about her! | ||
| He's like, well, I still remember a couple of years ago when Newt Gingrich was on and he was talking about the DAs and this, again, this was like 2020 and he's mentioned, and oh, by the way, you have a lot of these left-wing DAs in big cities that were funded by George Soros and the host cuts him off. | ||
| It's like, whoa, whoa, we don't want to go there. | ||
| We don't want to, we didn't bring that up. | ||
| And he's like, what do you mean? | ||
| He's the one who's funding them. | ||
| Like I didn't, I didn't say it was, uh, I can't remember the host on top of my head, but, but it was, um, yeah, he gets cut off. | ||
| The interview gets stopped. | ||
| He gets like told off on air and, and what's, what's wild though. | ||
| And you were talking about how the rules change from day to day. | ||
| Now everybody talks about that. | ||
| It's totally fine. | ||
| People push it. | ||
| Rhonda Sanders talks about it and he's like a, he talks about Rhonda Sanders talks about it. | ||
| Harris Faulkner constantly. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And, And he's like, you know, a major candidate, right? | ||
| Not like the leading candidate, but a major candidate. | ||
| And I've never heard anyone push back on DeSantis to call him anti-Semitic for bringing up George Soros, because I think we've breached a point where people realize that, you know, the now former, you know, retired George Soros, it's just so obvious and it's so heavily reported that you just can't Talk about the issue without referring to Soros DA. | ||
| It's just true. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So I think it's a great example of showing that if you keep pushing and you have the truth on your side, right? | ||
| That's the other part of it. | ||
| You can't just keep pushing, you know, for fun. | ||
| Remember that you're going to win. | ||
| Remember when a bunch of people were claiming that there was like an elite cabal Who was trafficking minors. | ||
| You know, powerful political and corporate elites. | ||
| And the media was like, you are crazy! | ||
| You people are nuts! | ||
| And then Epstein got arrested for it. | ||
| And then Maxwell is in prison for it. | ||
| And it was true. | ||
| And Instagram had a massive network that was rolled up, which by the way is amazing to me that we have this news that comes out. | ||
| Instagram has this huge pedophile network that it's totally available. | ||
| It's promoted by the algorithm. | ||
| You've got the Stanford Internet Research Observatory. | ||
| You've got the University of Massachusetts of Amherst. | ||
| Have you seen this thing? | ||
| It's in the Wall Street Journal. | ||
| They came out and they came up with Basically these like dummy accounts like a brand new account for Instagram and they would make the account look like in some instances they'd make it look like just a general account and sometimes they'd make the account look like it that the account itself was of a minor and then they would go and interact with accounts that were offering and they use lots of different euphemisms and code words for | ||
| Pedophilic activity, child sex, child sex trafficking, child trading. | ||
| In some cases, menus of things that you could order specifically from these accounts. | ||
| And then the next time they went into Instagram, and you went into the search function, the algorithm was feeding it to them. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Recommending it. | ||
| Hashtags. | ||
| Recommending it back to them. | ||
| Hashtags, etc. | ||
| But what's wild to me, Wall Street Journal drops that story, and it's just like, Everybody kind of shrugs their shoulders, goes on to the next thing. | ||
| There's massive pedophile networks operating in the open, in the clear, on Instagram. | ||
| They're using all the code words, some quite infamous, and nobody has anything about it. | ||
| We don't even talk about it. | ||
| But the corporate narrative is Donald Trump should be arrested. | ||
| Hillary Clinton did nothing wrong. | ||
| Because it came out on the same day that the news dropped about Trump's indictment. | ||
| Let's jump to this next story from TimCast.com. | ||
| Fox News sends Tucker Carlson cease and desist letter over Twitter show. | ||
| Oh boy, I love this. | ||
| Totally insane. | ||
| They say Carlson was abruptly pulled off the air by Fox News in April. | ||
| This we know. | ||
| Axios obtained a copy of the cease and desist letter. | ||
| Which they report said, not for publication. | ||
| Quote, Fox is continuing to pay Carlson and maintains that his contract keeps his content exclusive to Fox through December 31st, 2024. | ||
| Very, very interesting timing. | ||
| The report exclaimed, Carlson is making a First Amendment argument for posting on Twitter and asserts that Fox has committed material breaches of his contract. | ||
| Yo, they are trying to silence Tucker until the election is over. | ||
| They want him in golden handcuffs. | ||
| And they used to do this. | ||
| Many networks have done this. | ||
| In fact, I think it was Cenk Uygur who talked about it. | ||
| When he was at MSNBC, they basically give you no airtime, but they're paying you so you're in golden handcuffs. | ||
| They take care of you and you can't work. | ||
| That's what they were trying to do with Tucker. | ||
| Hey, look, we're not running your show anymore, but we're going to keep paying you. | ||
| And he's like, no, I want to speak out. | ||
| I think the machine, the corporate elites, the neolibs, the neocons, no. | ||
| It was, uh, what year was it? | ||
| Was it 2018? | ||
| When Alex Jones and a bunch of right-wing personalities were suspended across all these different platforms? | ||
| Yeah, 18. | ||
| 18. | ||
| It was like a big purge. | ||
| Because they were like, hey, wait a minute. | ||
| These are the people that helped Donald Trump get elected. | ||
| They're going to be doing the exact same thing, and it's begun. | ||
| Not just the Daily Wire, but also Tucker Carlson. | ||
| The idea that you would take Tucker, who is someone that, think of it, right? | ||
| Up until just a few weeks ago, one month ago, the number one name in America in terms of primetime news, after TeamCast IRL, at least on cable news, the number one guy. | ||
| The number one guy. | ||
| And suddenly he's summarily fired, but not only is he fired and in, and I'm just going to say it in a very disrespectful way, the way they treated Tucker, um, his very last appearance, he says, we'll see you on Monday. | ||
| So he didn't, they didn't, they didn't even give him the opportunity to do a sort of sign off show or even come out over the weekend and say, Hey, this thing happened, et cetera, et cetera. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| And if it was part of the Dominion lawsuit, that means they knew in advance they were planning on taking Tucker off the air and did not let him know at all. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah, I guess they didn't fire him. | ||
| I'm still trying to get the liturgy. | ||
| They did not. | ||
| They took his show off the air, but he's still under contract. | ||
| So they're basically saying, you can't work anywhere, but don't worry, we'll pay you. | ||
| Which is the same thing they did to James. | ||
| The same thing they did to James O'Keefe. | ||
| Yeah, I wonder if Tucker's show is part of his contract. | ||
| Like, we're gonna pay you for this show, we'll give you this amount of money. | ||
| So if the show is removed from the contract, essentially the contract becomes null and void. | ||
| Probably kind of what Tucker's thinking. | ||
| Legally, I don't know. | ||
| I feel like if someone's willing to take a bunch of money for a long-term contract, That's the price you pay when they sideline you. | ||
| You're stuck. | ||
| You lost your First Amendment. | ||
| You can speak out, but there's consequences in the form of getting sued by the person you signed the devil's contract with. | ||
| So, I don't know. | ||
| The logical part of my brain is like, Tucker, you're stuck. | ||
| Tucker, you're stuck! | ||
| Nah, he's not. | ||
| The idea that he can't post videos to Twitter is absurd. | ||
| Well, that's what I was going to ask. | ||
| The cease and desist is just that he's speaking at all? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Is that the idea? | ||
| You can't. | ||
| Yeah, that's not a thing. | ||
| So they're going to say, you know, and I'll play the devil's advocate, you have to be able to give both sides of an argument. | ||
| So I disagree, but here's what they'll say. | ||
| They'll argue that even though he's not broadcasting on cable news, that he is essentially continuing his show and thereby competing with what previously would have been his time slot. | ||
| So So if he changed the format, you think it would work? | ||
| the Tucker Carlson show or anything that's similar to the Tucker Carlson show while you were still on contract with | ||
|
unidentified
|
us. | |
| So if he changed the format you think it would work like if he had two guests and like a different angle? | ||
| I don't know. I don't think it's necessarily the format. It's the fact that he's making this type of content at all. | ||
| So if he set up like, you know, like Tim, like your daily show, like if he was doing | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| like those types of clips, which is kind of similar to what he's doing anyway, they would | ||
| still say that he's in breach. | ||
| That's wild, man. | ||
| Because it's informational content. | ||
| Making a 10 second internet video, like this is, these are contracts that were created | ||
| before social media existed. | ||
| They don't have any place in the modern market where you can make a tweet, make a five-second, 30-minute video when you're sitting on the beach. | ||
| I don't understand. | ||
| But he did take the money and sign the contract. | ||
| So then I guess the question would be, what if he was live streaming it just directly from his phone to Twitter? | ||
| Is that the same thing where it's, hey, I'm Tucker Carlson and I'm talking about Trump's indictment. | ||
| Boy, that was terrible and our country's gonna have a civil war and you know, etc. | ||
| Would that be necessarily a violation because it's not produced content? | ||
| But none of it is. | ||
| I mean, they'll argue whatever he does is. | ||
| But he's not going to have to deal with this. | ||
| They're not going to court. | ||
| I'm giving the argument from how they would how they're gonna argue it in court | ||
| They would argue that him filming live streaming. It is the same thing as a show at night live | ||
| I think they would show right think they would as well, but he's not gonna have to deal with this | ||
| They're not going to court. They're not gonna sue him he cuz Tucker could just be like oh you're suing me | ||
| Okay, I guess I agree with your lawsuit. Let's go to discovery. I won't challenge it for dismissal | ||
| We'll straight to discovery and Fox and ago No, wait, don't cuz I know that all the Dominion stuff | ||
| comes out and they don't want that to happen And he said already that | ||
| There have been board members of Fox who, by the way, I'm sure are going to come up for deposition if this goes to any type of lawsuit, that he's going to say, all right, you, you, you, who else was in the room? | ||
| Who else was in the room? | ||
| Okay, you, you, you, and you, we're all going to sit down and we're all going to find out exactly what went down when you decided to summarily pull the plug on the Tucker Carlson show. | ||
| Is Fox News the Fox Corporation? | ||
| Right, so they actually divested from the larger Fox that Disney bought. | ||
| Is it Fox Corp then? | ||
| Yeah, I think Fox Corp or Fox News Corp. | ||
| I have to wonder then, if the stock price drops in response to the firing of Tucker Carlson, If the board can then be sued for a breach of fiduciary duty. | ||
| Class action. | ||
| Does he not have the option, though, to just get out of his contract and not be paid? | ||
| I thought he... I had read somewhere that he had the option to cancel his contract. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| And based on my experience having similar contracts from these networks, you can't. | ||
| You have to request. | ||
| There has to be like a mutual break. | ||
| The purpose of the contract is so you can't leave. | ||
| Otherwise, there's no reason for them to have a contract with you, right? | ||
| They say, we want you to be only with us for this amount of time. | ||
| You say yes, and they say, we'll pay you X amount of dollars. | ||
| If they break the contract, they have to pay him out for the full terms, and then he's free to go. | ||
| So he's making that argument that they've breached the contract, and I say, it's kind of obvious they did. | ||
| Which is what happened to Megyn Kelly at NBC. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they let her go? | ||
| No, they fired her, but then she went in and got the full remainder of her contract. | ||
| She got paid. | ||
| And she got loose to go do her own thing right away, immediately. | ||
| But that's because she was fired over the blackface thing. | ||
| She said, I don't understand why it's offensive. | ||
| People dress up on Halloween all the time. | ||
| And it's like, she didn't even say anything offensive. | ||
| She was just like, I don't get it. | ||
| Can someone explain to me? | ||
| And they're like, you're fired. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Honestly, like that's like morning show banter kind of stuff that you would do, you know, maybe she's a very smart individual. | ||
| I'm sure she knows why people don't like it. | ||
| Look, she made it like a bandit. | ||
| It was a big mistake for her to try and do one of these hokey morning shows. | ||
| Her podcast now is substantially better and successful. | ||
| I've always said, um, you know, and, and, and people know Megyn Kelly and I have had our differences, but, uh, I've, I mean, Kelly file was fantastic when she was just the, you know, the hard nose, legal, legal slicing and dicing these cases. | ||
| And I think that's where her podcast has gotten to at this point. | ||
| And it's substantially better. | ||
| And let's not forget, she's the one who asked Trump that fateful question about calling women fat pigs. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And then we got that magical moment. | ||
| And basically won him the election. | ||
| I gotta say, I don't know Megan personally. | ||
| That one thing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I felt like she had a great kind of evolution, similar to Tucker Carlson, because I remember her being a sort of neo-con in like 2007. | ||
| If I remember correctly, I remember not liking her at all, being like, she's just a war hawk. | ||
| She's just parroting the mainstream media narrative. | ||
| It's so annoying. | ||
| And then all of a sudden, like 2013-14, She was like not hip to the crap, and I started to see her wake up and kind of like separate herself from the pack and think critically. | ||
| And I haven't really followed her work a lot, but I really appreciate that evolution. | ||
| Her podcast is great. | ||
| It's very good. | ||
| I think this is just the beginning. | ||
| We are going to see a wave of censorship. | ||
| We're going to see insane smears, lies, cheating, stealing, you name it. | ||
| My favorite is when they did that Stanford study on like people spreading election disinformation or misinformation or whatever. | ||
| And they put me on there. | ||
| And then you have like, I'm not gonna say these people's names, but there's one woman who claims that I pushed the big lie about Trump's election narrative, which literally I've never done and was heavily criticized for doing it. | ||
| But they've run ads to generate donations claiming that I I'm as ready as I can be, man. | ||
| Deepfakes. | ||
| I'm never really ready for the deepfake until I see it and then I'm like, is this happening? | ||
| I said he lost because they were ballot harvesting and because people were fed up, but they'll lie. | ||
| Doesn't matter if it makes them money, if it wins them elections, they'll say whatever. | ||
| So I hope y'all are ready. | ||
| I'm as ready as I can be, man. | ||
| Deep fakes, I'm never really ready for the deep fake until I see it and then I'm like, is this happening? | ||
| We've had the first political campaign official deep fake ad. | ||
| And DeSantis of all people. | ||
| Earlier this week. | ||
| But that being said, this is why, If you remember a couple of months ago, I was pushing deep | ||
| fakes hard. | ||
| I was like throwing them up once a week, right? | ||
| And I didn't know it'd be DeSantis but I knew that there would be campaigns that start slipping them in that just very sneak sneakily and I couched it. | ||
| I always couched it. | ||
| these deep fakes in addition to actual content. | ||
| But you posted stuff like, here's what would happen or something like that. | ||
| Like here's- I couched it. I always couched it. | ||
| And they, uh, I think it was the RNC did an ad of what the future might look- | ||
| what the future will be under Biden. | ||
| Well, this goes back to LBJ. | ||
| It shows, uh, deep fake images, AI-generated images of Biden in situations that are clearly | ||
| not real and are explained as fiction as the premise of the video. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The DeSantis campaign put real-life Trump in big block letters and then showed three fake photos of Trump hugging and kissing Dr. Fauci. | ||
| But they were spliced in, in, so like... | ||
| You know, you'd call it like a six pack, right? | ||
| So there were three real pictures of Trump and Fauci spliced in with three fake pictures and I saw... | ||
| I saw the DeSantis campaign saying, oh, well, Trump posts memes all the time. | ||
| Trump posts stuff. | ||
| No, they called it whatever. | ||
| They called it deepfakes too. | ||
| And then someone shared Ron riding a rhinoceros. | ||
| And I'm like, I'm sorry you believe that was real. | ||
| Which actually was a Photoshop. | ||
| It was even signed. | ||
| It obviously wasn't deepfake. | ||
| But the point is, is that no one was claiming it was real and it wasn't slipped in, you know, mixed in real and fake images together. | ||
| And tagged as real. | ||
| And tagged as real, right. | ||
| Dude, I'm sorry, I don't care. | ||
| People are tweeting at me, and they're commenting, and they're being like, you don't care about when Trump did the AI deepfake of this Twitter space. | ||
| And I was like, oh, I'm sorry, you thought the devil and Hitler, actually. | ||
| You thought the devil, and the Hitler, and the Hitler, and George Soros were all on a Twitter space. | ||
| Yeah, and Cheney, Dick Cheney. | ||
| I'm sorry you believed that was real. | ||
| Like, dude, I don't care. | ||
| You're not going to try to, it's the stupidest thing. | ||
| Well, how come you're not criticizing Donald Trump when he does it? | ||
| Shut your mouth. | ||
| Criticizing Donald Trump when he posts stupid memes that no one th- Oh, Ron riding a rhinoceros. | ||
| Yo, a political campaign tagged real-life Trump and put deep fake images to smear a political rival. | ||
| There is nothing you are going to say to me that's going to make me think otherwise on my opinion. | ||
| DeSantis is- He needs to come out and disavow 100%. | ||
| I would even go as far as saying he should probably fire whoever's behind that outright, and I don't want any excuses or manip- or, oh, here's the mailroom guy. | ||
| No, I want to know who was actually the person who made the video. | ||
| I want to know who was behind the post of that. | ||
| They should be fired. | ||
| There is nothing, right, outside of that, that would get me to support Ron DeSantis in any capacity, even if he becomes the GOP nominee. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| I think that, so is, and just to tease it out, so are you saying that the intent matters here, right? | ||
| Because you think they were actually intending to, you know, trick the audience into thinking that those were real images. | ||
| They wrote real life Trump in big block letters and put it over fake images. | ||
| Sure, because those images, so if you try and do a Google reverse on them, nothing else comes up. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| So the argument that they accidentally stumbled upon them, no. | ||
| They put Fake images of Trump hugging and kissing Fauci because, based on what I see and what I believe, they were intending to manipulate people into thinking Trump actually hugged and kissed Fauci. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| I had just said that day, before I discovered, because the video was a few days older than when I made a video about it, that, um... | ||
| I had stated Fauci is Trump's biggest weakness and DeSantis absolutely could go after that because Trump repeatedly said like, oh, I couldn't fire him or something like that. | ||
| But then they decide to cross the line. | ||
| They were the first to decide we will use AI generated images. | ||
| That the average person probably won't notice, but will see Trump hugging and kissing Fauci. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Sorry, dude. | ||
| If Ron supports that and does not take action against the person who does that, I do not trust Ron DeSantis. | ||
| So what if they had just taken, let's say, one picture? | ||
| Because, to your point, they've made it a very strong point. | ||
| They say, why didn't Trump sideline this guy? | ||
| Why did he do what he did? | ||
| And people have gone back and even CNN has looked and said, well, he did criticize. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| They're using it as an attack angle, an attack vector on Trump. | ||
| Uh, they're using it to attack him from the right because they're in a primary. | ||
| They're trying to get some, uh, increase in the polls. | ||
| Everybody gets why they're doing it. | ||
| They deserve to lose. | ||
| And so here's my point though. | ||
| What if they had just posted one of the images by itself without the rest of that advertisement or those texts? | ||
| Would you be okay with that? | ||
| If they posted a picture on Twitter of just the deepfake? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If they said something like, this is how we see it, I'd roll my eyes and be like, guys, you're getting- you're on the line, man. | ||
| But to take three- If they had caveated it. | ||
| If they had caveated it in some way, it's clear that you've got people who are coming up to the line and then, like, trying to see if they can get past it. | ||
| Posting a deepfake as a gag Totally fine. | ||
| So in the context of being like, Trump is buddy-buddy with Fauci, and this is how we see it, I'd be like, that's kinda dirty. | ||
| But I wouldn't be, I'd probably forget about it right away. | ||
| To produce an ad, where you write real-life Trump, and then show it very briefly, very quickly, along with real images, the intent is palpable, it's visible. | ||
| If they just posted a single image, you could be like, oh look, that text is fake. | ||
| The White House emblem says Mehehep. | ||
| It's not a real... Mehehep Wems, it said. | ||
| Those aren't words, it's gibberish. | ||
| You could see that and be like... Right, because for some reason, AI cannot get text right. | ||
| Well, because text is code. | ||
| It's like writing meaning into images. | ||
| It can get images. | ||
| Sure, if you imagine that something like the alphabet in the English language could be... | ||
| They should work on that. | ||
| Pretty easily programmed in. | ||
| By putting three fake along with three real, the average person who sees these smaller images with real-life Trump written over it is not going to have, and it's a video, the time to deeply analyze each photo as if they were just to tweet out one fake photo. | ||
| People would notice it was a deepfake right away. | ||
| I'd still say it's fairly dirty, but I would not be as upset. | ||
| The fact that they tagged it real life, put it next to real images in an attempt to trick people into thinking Trump actually did these things is the dirtiest politics. | ||
| The dirtiest. | ||
| Joe Biden launched his presidential campaign with the very fine people hoax. | ||
| I will not stand for that, nor will I stand for the DeSantis campaign doing similar things. | ||
| I think the Verifying People hoax was worse, because he made this big video explaining the lie, and this was a brief bit of fake news they produced, but the idea that someone's going to come to me and be like, You're a trumper because Donald Trump posted a meme and that's why DeSantis is allowed to do it. | ||
| Shut up, don't care. | ||
| Literally just don't care. | ||
| If Ron DeSantis, if he does not deal with it, if he does not address it, if he does not take action against it, and he becomes a GOP nominee, I will not vote for him. | ||
| Don't care. | ||
| It was posted by the DeSantis War Room Twitter page. | ||
| And I don't know how official... That's Bashaw's thing? | ||
| That's a rapid response. | ||
| Well, we don't know who made it. | ||
| We don't know who made the video, but I don't think it's Bashaw. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, it's a campaign account. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| But I don't think you can determine specifically, just to be fair, like, I don't know exactly who made it. | ||
| I'm just looking to find it. | ||
| I can't. | ||
| I'm having a hard time finding it. | ||
| Do you remember what day it went up? | ||
| A couple of days ago. | ||
| Yeah, I can't... There's literally nothing that will get me behind that. | ||
| I wouldn't vote for Joe Biden for a variety of the same reasons. | ||
| The dude's absolutely corrupt. | ||
| But there's a line as far as I'm concerned. | ||
| I complain all day about the media lying about everything non-stop. | ||
| I can certainly complain that Donald Trump is a dick. | ||
| And he's mean and he's nasty. | ||
| And he posted that image of... He says Ron with like young women or whatever. | ||
| And they try and put an angle on it. | ||
| I'm like, dude... | ||
| That's dirty politics. | ||
| I think it's disgusting. | ||
| That is not Trump AI generating a fake picture of Ron DeSantis with young women. | ||
| That is someone else posting an image and Trump retruthed it or whatever. | ||
| And I'm like, that's Trump calling people fat pigs and being kind of nasty. | ||
| Well, you know, what are you gonna do about it? | ||
| That's who he is. | ||
| If you don't like it, absolutely fine. | ||
| I have ragged on Trump's potty mouth quite a bit. | ||
| But Trump did not AI-generate a fake image of DeSantis to trick people into thinking DeSantis actually did a thing. | ||
| He reposted silly photoshops of Ron DeSantis riding his favorite animal, a rhinoceros. | ||
| It was very, very silly. | ||
| Nobody thought it was real. | ||
| Oh no, Ron was riding a rhino, now I'm not gonna vote for him. | ||
| Nah, I don't care. | ||
| Yeah, it's definitely still up. | ||
| It was posted on June 5th. | ||
| It's still up! | ||
| Does it have a community note? | ||
| Yes, I believe it does. | ||
| Not on their page. | ||
| If I click on it directly, it does not. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Because I remember after I made a video about it, it said at 25... No, yeah, it's not there. | ||
| And no community note. | ||
| Hit refresh. | ||
| Sometimes I've noticed that if I pull up a tweet and it'll look like it doesn't have a community note, and if I hit refresh, then I'll be able to see it. | ||
| Nope, did not come up with a refresh. | ||
| It'd be cool if I could turn community notes on. | ||
| Real-life Trump with some fake life images. | ||
| Are you logged in? | ||
| Yeah, into Twitter. | ||
| It says real-life Trump on it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, um, wow. | |
| I don't, uh, I don't see any, I don't see it. | ||
| The Santa's War Room. | ||
| It's from June 5th. | ||
| Oh, June 5th. | ||
| I'm, I'm waiting. | ||
| That was a long date. | ||
| Seven days ago. | ||
| It did have one before though. | ||
| It definitely had a community note on it on Twitter. | ||
| What do you guys think of community notes? | ||
| I used to, I mean, I like the original community note, which was called a reply, you know, upvoted reply, you know, or like upvoted replies would be fine with, well, the, but an upvote on Twitter is a retweet. | ||
| The video contains real imagery interspersed with AI-generated imagery of Trump hugging and kissing Fauci without noting they are fake. | ||
| Twitter has more engagement. So if you post something in the comments that's | ||
| got you know a picture or a link or whatever it is in my case it's it does | ||
| have a community. Mine does not that's weird. The video contains real imagery | ||
| interspersed with AI generated imagery of Trump hugging and kissing Fauci | ||
| without noting they're fake. In addition Trump could not directly fire Dr. Fauci | ||
| without the move going through the administrative judge or a late EO. | ||
| So, right. | ||
| And so this is a fair point. | ||
| Trump could not just fire Fauci. | ||
| He could have sidelined him. | ||
| He could have done things. | ||
| But he even says, like the left would have gone crazy. | ||
| He was worried of political backlash. | ||
| Well, and keep in mind, it's not just the left, but what happened when Trump fired Comey? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Did he turn into a committee? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| That's what started the special counsel of Mueller investigation against him for two years. | ||
| Because he fired Comey. | ||
| Dude, they still have the fake tweet up. | ||
| Like, the Dishonest Worm has not even taken down the lies and the fake news that they have made. | ||
| Look, there's nothing more deeply offensive to me than someone intentionally trying to trick people for power. | ||
| And I'm sorry, dude. | ||
| Those actually look pretty good to be honest. | ||
| They're well made. | ||
| They're really good. | ||
| Now, there is something funny about this top left image. | ||
| Not just the Mehep Wems on the White House emblem, but that Trump's arm is, his right arm is, I believe, three times longer than his left, if you've noticed. | ||
| You see Trump's hand going around Fauci's back? | ||
| Yeah, but that's because he plays golf. | ||
| That would mean that Trump's right arm is double or triple the length of his left arm. | ||
| So that's how you know that these are AI generated. | ||
| And you can also tell, it looks like the one in the bottom middle, the AI took Trump hugging the flag and then turned it into... Oh, so they took that as like a template. | ||
| Or something. | ||
| I'm sorry, dude, this is the dirtiest thing that I've seen in a long time. | ||
| And, uh, did not expect the DeSantis campaign to not only run with it... Look at Fauci's face! | ||
| He's like... He's more than happy. | ||
| He's like getting turned on. | ||
| And they're heavily ratioed on the tweet, and they have not deleted it. | ||
| They have not addressed it, nor apologized for it, and I will tell you, the longer they ignore it, the angrier I become at them. | ||
| So if Ron DeSantis is going to ignore this, if Christina Pashaw and Jeremy Redford are going to ignore this, then I have absolutely no problem saying, if Ron DeSantis is the GOP nominee, I am voting Libertarian. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, I like how you said it's like the dirtiest thing you've seen in a while. | ||
| It's evil! | ||
| Yeah, it's relative. | ||
| Like, it's the dirtiest thing I've seen from Ron's camp. | ||
| I didn't think of him as a guy that was gonna throw mud. | ||
| I thought he was gonna be like, let's just leave this crap out of this. | ||
| That's part of his, you know... Being evil? | ||
| I mean, it's part of his argument against Trump. | ||
| Remember, so we're gonna separate Trumpism from Trump because Trump has, as you were saying earlier, Trump has baggage. | ||
| He's got a potty mouth. | ||
| He does things that cross the line. | ||
| And yet, so if you're setting yourself up though, in wrestling you would say baby face versus heel. | ||
| They say Trump's a heel, but DeSantis is a baby face. | ||
| So we run as a baby face. | ||
| So if you're running as a face, You can't do stuff that crosses the line because otherwise that's what you'd be considered a heel turner. | ||
| I will take the arrogant, loud mouth dick standing on stage calling people fat pigs but at least telling you like it is. | ||
| Excuse me, only Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
| Only Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
| Rosie. | ||
| Trump has lied about stupid things and it's usually about his ego or he fluffs things and he exaggerates things. | ||
| If the Trump campaign produces AI deepfakes directly from Trump and his rapid response director, I'll say the same thing about him. | ||
| I'm not playing these games. | ||
| They lied about Trump nonstop all day every day. | ||
| They fake impeached him twice. | ||
| They tried to convict him. | ||
| They're trying to arrest him now on completely bogus garbage. | ||
| I am sick of it! | ||
| And so, after dealing with years of the Democratic establishment constantly lying to my face and telling me that I am dumb as they come and I better believe their stupid garbage, because, and you know this, Brandon, there was a period where I, I don't think I was ever as, as, like you were Democrat, right? | ||
| You were more liberal. | ||
| Full on. | ||
| I was kind of like, well, you know, this Russia thing, maybe let's take a look at the evidence. | ||
| And then when it all comes out, I'm like, how dare you have have lied to me so aggressively? | ||
| And you saw it. | ||
| That was your story. | ||
| You want to explain my story? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I mean, for me, it was it was the media. | ||
| And it was the kind of pivotal moment for me was I voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and in January 2017, right around the time he was about to take office. | ||
| And I was Outraged, I posted something about how I would never be able to understand how anyone could vote for a man who mocked a reporter's disability in front of a cheering crowd. | ||
| And then that was when somebody pointed out to me for the first time, sent me a YouTube video entitled, Debunking the Trump Mocked the Disabled Reporter. | ||
| It was literally the first time in my life. | ||
| That it even dawned on me that the media that I trusted, like CNN, MSNBC, etc., was capable of completely creating a false narrative and a lie and spinning a moment out of context. | ||
| Because the whole thing about the disabled reporter was that this is a bit that he does all the time when he's imitating anybody who's flailing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Anyone. | |
| He did it for Ted Cruz. | ||
| Yeah, because they're caught in a lie or doing something shady or dishonest. | ||
| They set him up. | ||
| Yeah, totally. | ||
| I don't believe he's yet to do it for Ron DeSantis, but I imagine he's probably learned his lesson. | ||
| And so, the DeSantis campaign has done, effectively, what my biggest complaint about the Democrats in the media is. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Generated fake—and this is more egregious than just twisting context. | ||
| It's one thing to be like, Donald Trump said something offensive, and you're like, oh come on, show us the quote, it wasn't that bad. | ||
| It's another thing to AI-generate fake images, put real-life Trump over it, slap it on Twitter, leave it up, address it in no way despite all the complaints about it, showing us that the DeSantis campaign would absolutely use the tactics of the Democrats and the corporate establishment, and they're unwilling to apologize. | ||
| They shouldn't have done it in the first place. | ||
| But this is the most offensive thing you could have done. | ||
| The subject matter is pretty bad too, because if you look across the MAGA movement, people who maybe loved Trump and now they're not so sure if they love Trump and maybe they're thinking about DeSantis, this is going to be the deciding thing. | ||
| It's vaccines, it's Fauci, it's all that. | ||
| So this is like a key issue for people in the MAGA movement who might move away from Trump. | ||
| So they're not just lying and manipulating any random campaign issue, it's THE campaign issue that would sway people over to DeSantis. | ||
| Right, it's not just a joke. | ||
| It's not something like, it's not, it's not Trump riding a pig. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, it's, it's material. | ||
| And this, this to me, and by the way, and, and I've, I've, I've thrown this challenge out there for DeSantis supporters. | ||
| Show me one video. | ||
| So they make this line out there, they say, they say, well, I would have, and, and so DeSantis is out there today going after Trump's judicial picks on the Supreme Court, uh, coming out against them. | ||
| And then immediately, what does the Trump campaign do? | ||
| They came back and they find the official statements from Ron DeSantis supporting those judicial picks. | ||
| At the time. | ||
| So what I always say about there on the Fauci stuff, which by the way, totally cool. | ||
| You said this guy was too close to Fauci, blah, blah, blah, listen to it, all right. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| Can you show me though, like if you're gonna make the historical argument, | ||
| can you show me one instance of Ron DeSantis calling to fire Fauci in 2020 | ||
| during the same time period that he's talking about? | ||
| He said, I would have done this. | ||
| Well, yeah, that's easy to say, I would have done that years later. | ||
| Can you find any instance of showing that you would have actually been willing | ||
| to go after this issue in the time when it was actually pertinent? | ||
| Because if you can't then, and which if you've gone to and CNN's done this and the Trump campaign did this, that he was saying the exact same things that Trump was saying about Fauci at the same time frame. | ||
| So that's what gets me about all of this. | ||
| And if you like, I'm, I'm fine if you want to support DeSantis, right? | ||
| I'm not like, Oh my God, how dare you? | ||
| Right. | ||
| But at the same time, just don't gaslight me. | ||
| Do not gaslight me. | ||
| Don't lie to me. | ||
| Do not piss on my foot and tell me it's raining. | ||
| You know, I had argued a year ago that I was for DeSantis over Trump 100% because DeSantis was like a sane version of Trump for the average person. | ||
| Trumpism without Trump. | ||
| Right, he had the tact, he had leadership. | ||
| And then earlier this year I said I don't think DeSantis will actually go in and schedule a left fire, everybody like Trump is, and that's basically the only thing I think we need right now, the most important thing, I shouldn't say the only, the most important thing we need right now is termination of these bureaucrats, of these government officials who are, you know, the permanent government. | ||
| You know the only person who can do that is a guy who doesn't have to worry about re-election. | ||
| Right, and it's not just that, it's Trump wants revenge. | ||
| And so my attitude was like... It's the perfect storm. | ||
| My attitude earlier in the year was like, look, if Ted Sanders wins, we'll be happy, and we'll definitely, like, I will vote for him, I think most of us would, and we'll be like, okay, you know, this is what... I won't. | ||
| Dude, no way. | ||
| Like, I am so... | ||
| What angers me more than anything was the constant lies from the media. | ||
| It wasn't just the stop making me defend Trump trope, it was the stop treating me like I'm a moron and that you can trick me. | ||
| And the DeSantis campaign just did it, and not only that, they won't apologize for it, they won't take it down, and the DeSantis supporters are insulting me for criticizing it. | ||
| Well have they, would, I mean, I assume you've invited them on? | ||
| Yeah, in the past they've said they'd make time, they'd figure it out, and you know, we've talked about trying to get this head at some point. | ||
| I'd absolutely love to have any one of them on, and the first thing we'll do is ask them why they did it, and then have them address it. | ||
| And if they want to come on this show, they can sit down, go to their Twitter, and then screenshot it, delete it, post the screenshot and say, we've deleted this tweet, we apologize for making it, we have removed the video because it was wrong to do in the first place. | ||
| If they want to come on the show, they can do that. | ||
| Otherwise, dude, I like Dave Smith. | ||
| I like the Libertarian Party. | ||
| I don't think it's realistic. | ||
| I don't think they'll win. | ||
| I do think if you got a Dave Smith or whoever ends up running for the Libertarian Party into government, they'd fire a lot more people than Trump probably would, which is not real. | ||
| But if my choice is between, sorry, if my choice is between liars, cheaters, and manipulators, and liars, cheaters, and manipulators, I don't know. | ||
| I don't know what to say. | ||
| I mean, yeah, to my point on that with Trump is people say like, oh, well, why didn't he do this? | ||
| Why didn't he do that? | ||
| It's like, guys, grow up. | ||
| Just grow up for a second, right? | ||
| This is the first time you had someone in government that was even willing to entertain discussion of those things. | ||
| And now suddenly you're going to turn around and argue that why didn't you drain all of the swamp, right? | ||
| No, this is the first time you've actually had a situation with a critical mass movement behind him to actually achieve these things. | ||
| And if you want somebody to take this wrecking ball, as you're talking about, actually do Schedule F. If you put someone in there who's worried about re-election, who's worried about being investigated, who's worried about being smeared about, who's got to worry about all these different things, I guarantee you they are not going to anybody I agree. | ||
| right, are not going to be willing to do what has to be done because they're going to be | ||
| so worried about the next four years. | ||
| And if they're willing to make fake images to trick you, do you really believe that they're | ||
| going to fire anybody if they claim they will? | ||
| To your point, it's not that they want to trick you, it's that they want to get elected. | ||
| Yeah, so putting the election ahead. | ||
| They're already doing it. | ||
| They're putting the election ahead of the principal. | ||
| So they'll come out and they'll be like, if you elect me, I'm going to fire these bureaucrats. | ||
| No, you won't. | ||
| You're lying. | ||
| Get out of here. | ||
| You're deepfake, DeSantis. | ||
| You make fake images trying to get me to vote for you. | ||
| It's not happening. | ||
| Look, man, I think DeSantis definitely had more tact than Trump. | ||
| He didn't have the charisma. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| And we ragged on him for it. | ||
| But this is, it's different. | ||
| I did not vote in 2012. | ||
| I did not vote in 2016. | ||
| I barely, like, 2020 was me looking at the Trump administration and being like, yo, the foreign policy was, that was, that was mainly it, the foreign policy stuff. | ||
| I thought, I thought the school choice was good. | ||
| The no wokeness in government contracting, I'm like, this is all stuff we need. | ||
| I don't actually believe Desantis at this point. | ||
| If they're going to run with this, you know, my first thought was that after covering and talking about the story, they would take it down and say we shouldn't have done that. | ||
| And it's been a week and they've done nothing. | ||
| So I'm not convinced that these are people of good moral standing. | ||
| I think these are power hungry people. | ||
| I can't speak for Ron, I don't know, but I think the people around him are just... that's it. | ||
| The DeSantis campaign feels very manufactured to me because when he had an opportunity, I don't know, six months ago to come out and announce, everyone's like, I think DeSantis is going to announce! | ||
| Weeks went by, months went by. | ||
| No, no mention of it. | ||
| It's same with Joe Biden, like running for office in 2020. | ||
| He didn't even run for president until the very end. | ||
| All of a sudden he appears out of nowhere. | ||
| It's like other people around him told him, like, I feel like people pressured Ron so much. | ||
| Like, you got to do it. | ||
| You got to do it. | ||
| You got to do it. | ||
| And he's fine. | ||
| Like, it's not that he wants to, it's that he's wanted to. | ||
| So here he is now. | ||
| We got to go to Superchats. | ||
| We are way late. | ||
| I'll be super clear about this just to respond to what you said. | ||
| And people were like, oh, but you're just a Trump shill. | ||
| It's like, look, I think Ron DeSantis would make a great president one day. | ||
| I do. | ||
| But why squabble over four years when you could put together a plan for 12? | ||
| Right? | ||
| Wouldn't that be the strategic pick right there? | ||
| To say, you do the four years, endorse, then get the endorsement on the back end, everybody moves together, so you've got four years, then four years, then four more years. | ||
| I'd have said that before this deepfake thing. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| But let's go to Super Chats. | ||
| Alright, I'm not your buddy guy says James Comey gave up their hand when he went on CNN or MSNBC and said that Trump cannot win and paints Trump coming back vengeful ready to clean house. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| He sounded terrified. | ||
| I saw that clip. | ||
| Donald Trump gets in here why he could be coming after all of us. | ||
| That's totally actually saying that. | ||
| Like, yes. | ||
| Raymond G. Stanley Jr. | ||
| says, who's this young guy and what have you done with Tim? | ||
| Tate had a good point from a PBD interview. | ||
| There's more of us than them, so it's all about how much we'll tolerate. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| And our tolerance is waning. | ||
| That's really it, man. | ||
| You see this Call of Duty stuff? | ||
| Nick Merckx, Tim the Tet, Disrespect? | ||
| These are like... | ||
| Modern celebrities, high-profile internet personalities, famous to the point where you could play as them in the game. | ||
| Tim the Tatman says, take me off this game if you're doing this to my buddy. | ||
| And they were like, oh, okay, I guess. | ||
| They're reeling from it. | ||
| And the funny thing is, after Nick Merck said, leave the kids alone, and they all attacked him for it, and they pulled his skin off, his his | ||
| It is funny all the news reports No, no, but I want to point this out all the news reports | ||
| say Are they the Aztecs Tim? | ||
| All the news reports say Activision removes Tim the Tatman's skin | ||
| after and it's like He's gaming skin | ||
| Removes his skin They flayed him alive | ||
| No I forgot what I was going to say I don't know Oh yeah they doubled down | ||
| They posted a pro pride tweet got ratioed posted another one and locked comments | ||
| comments. So, but, but I think I'm not gonna make, no, I just think, I think it shows that | ||
| I was going to say, if you're allowing pro-pride skins in Call of Duty, which is a game where the players kill each other, then does that mean you're cheating? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I understand. | |
| Just saying. | ||
| You can do that, but you can't offend them. | ||
| Right. | ||

| We're at the brink of war because of them, and they're clearly not loyal to our Republic. | ||
| The Ukraine stuff might actually be treason. | ||
| So bribery is actually delineated as an impeachable offense in the Constitution. | ||
| It is. | ||
| So everybody knows the Constitution says high crimes and misdemeanors, right? | ||
| But right before that, the Founding Fathers in the original Constitution, 1789 into 1791, actually wrote out that bribery of the presidency is one of the direct impeachable offense. | ||
| Like, you must impeach if you have evidence of this. | ||

| Interesting. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| People should take a look. | ||
| Jadavs is trying to get pedantic. | ||
| He says, Tim, did you share fake news calling a one-foot nollie 360, quote, nollie cab on purpose? | ||
| A version of a typo in the title? | ||
| Ah, my child, let me explain to you the etymology of the nollie cab. | ||
| For those that aren't familiar, there's a maneuver that was invented a long time ago in skateboarding called the caballerial. | ||
| It is a fakie 360. | ||
| It's a fakie backside 360. | ||
| What that means is fakie means you're riding backwards. | ||
| Backside means your spin is with your back Towards the front, so if you have your left foot forward, it's clockwise, and a 360 is a 300-degree spin. | ||
| The reason why some people take issue is that I did a one-foot nollie 360. | ||
| I posted it on Instagram. | ||
| I put nollie cab, and people said, that's not a real thing, you can't call it that because a caballerial is fakie. | ||
| The reason this emerged, the phrase nollie cab, is because in playing a game of skate, which is where your opponent does a trick, then you have to do the same trick, and if they mess up, then you do the trick, you get letters, it's basically the game of horse. | ||
| Someone would do what is called a nollie frontside 360. | ||
| But if you don't know a person's stance, whether they are left foot forward or right foot forward, it looks the same as a caballerial. | ||
| So somebody would say, alright, your turn, it's your trick. | ||
| The person would do a nollie 360, and they would go, uh, was that a cab? | ||
| And they would go, nollie. | ||
| Nollie cab. | ||
| That's where the phrase comes from. | ||
| So yes, it is an appropriate colloquial term in skateboarding, but a lot of nitpickers in skateboarding are like, that's not a real trick! | ||
| And this has been your skateboarding history with Tim Pool. | ||
| Uh, anyway. | ||
| Aaron says, Bill Barr knew the entire time. | ||
| Yep, sure did. | ||
| Did nothing about it. | ||
| Isn't it amazing? | ||
| I mean, Bill Barr, a lot of these guys, they're institutionalists, right? | ||
| They exist to... I mean, keep in mind, Bill Barr is the same guy who raised money to defend the sniper from Ruby Ridge. | ||
| Same guy. | ||
| So, these guys exist to hold up the institution. | ||
| Well, Trump hired them. | ||
| Fix the credibility of the institution and not actually go after these types of crimes. | ||
| Oh, we have another correction. | ||
| Kaiser Outdoor says, It's a nollie backside 360, Tim. | ||
| You are also incorrect. | ||
| When riding nollie, frontside remains frontside. | ||
| When riding fakie, it inverts. | ||
| So, sorry sir, you are wrong. | ||
| See, like, you know, my view of skateboarding is I have, like, a very logical mind, and so I, like, the structure in my mind is very mathematical, not just... There's a lot of people who skate, and the way they explain it, it's more feels. | ||
| No, I'm all math. | ||
| So, like, the structure and the logic of the system has to make sense. | ||
| It's like an architect versus a gardener. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Or the architect versus the engineer. | ||
| The architect will draw the schematics of what it wants to look like and the engineer goes, I will figure it out. | ||
| Like, how am I going to get that thing to do that? | ||
| Let's grab some more Real Super Chats and I'll stop talking about skateboarding. | ||
| What do we got? | ||
| Nexttheslayer says, would you kindly make a full video on the history of the Biden investigation around Burisma, then link it somewhere conspicuous for easy reference? | ||
| I know you've done it before, but Rumble and YouTube searches pull up nonsense. | ||
| Yeah, I wonder if Hannah Clare would want to do something like that. | ||
| Like a 10 minute breakdown explainer of the whole Burisma scandal. | ||
| And just like a mini doc explaining like, here's how the company started, here's who was involved. | ||
| There was a CIA director on the board. | ||
| It wasn't just Hunter Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So, Kofur Black was his name? | ||
| And the fact that Burisma is a gas company, by the way, I think should not escape everyone's notice. | ||
| You've got the gas prime gas monopoly. I mean the thing goes deeper than and and honestly it could all go back | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yup. | |
| And the fact that Burisma is a gas company by the way, I think should not escape everyone's notice | ||

Yep What do we got | |
| Vaughn Sinful says good news on the culture front and if you like comics rip a verse is that reverse isom | ||
| Number 2 pre-order campaign launched today and it's already over $700,000. | ||
| Wow! | ||
| Eric July, man! | ||
| Killing it! | ||
| Absolutely amazing. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Let's grab some more. | ||
| Hey Tim and gang, I'm a history buff and it feels like we're living in similar times pre-WWI, but feels like the American Civil War and the next Great War will happen at the same time. | ||
| Thoughts? | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| Yeah, if there was an American civil war, that would be part of a world war. | ||
| Well, if you actually look at World War One, from Russia's perspective, so Russia gets involved in World War One, but then experiences a civil war internally, which was fanned and supported by the Germans. | ||
| Um, sending Lenin and this, you know, the infamous train into, uh, St. | ||
| Petersburg and then Moscow in order to knock Russia out of the war. | ||
| So if we were to enter directly into an actual war right now, this would be the perfect opportunity for one of America's adversaries to then go in and start inflaming that point to where we actually break out into it. | ||
| So, I mean, this is, it's been followed exactly. | ||
| And you look at the, the neo-Bolsheviks of today and the Bolsheviks of that time, Go read Always with Honor by Piotr Wrangel, best book on | ||
| this subject whatsoever. | ||
| Yeah, watch out for people making the American military industrial complex the villain. I'm not | ||
| full on board like, yay, American military industrial, but they use the Russian emperor | ||
| as the villain to get their cultural revolution over. If they're going to try and make the war | ||
| machine the villain to create some cultural revolution that could create something much | ||
| worse. So don't fall for that. Cassandra Fairbanks wrote an obituary for Ted Kaczynski. | ||
| And there's a whole bunch of stuff this guy wrote about how the left, | ||
| if given control of technology, will use it to oppress people. | ||
| And he very much explained- Well, that's crazy! | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| I mean, the dude was- was crazy. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| Like, he- he sent bombs to people. | ||
| Like, that's- that's- there's- you're nuts. | ||
| Ted Kaczynski. | ||
| He just passed away, didn't he? | ||
| Right, yeah. | ||
| Unabomber. | ||
| He was also one of the early subjects in MKUltra. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| Very, very creepy and weird. | ||
| Around 16, 17. | ||
| I think it was Stick Sex and Hammer who made a really great point and he said, just because someone may be a bad person with bad ideas does not mean other ideas they have that are good are bad. | ||
| So Ted Kaczynski saying that the right will do things that are bad, here's what they'll do. | ||
| The left will do things that are bad, here's what they'll do. | ||
| It's like, those are really good points from a very bad person, you know? | ||
| And sometimes really great people will have horrendous ideas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Scary. | |
| Don't follow people blindly, ever. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Uchala says, on Joe Rogan, Theo Vaughn talked about having year-old episodes with RFK Jr. | ||
| taken down in the last couple of weeks. | ||
| He had no idea why. | ||
| By the way, on that point earlier about Kaczynski, how many people was Nelson Mandela responsible for killing when he was endorsing and supporting terrorist activity? | ||
| Go look up necklacing in South Africa. | ||
| Oh, did you see? | ||
| Well, Norm Macdonald has that funny joke. | ||
| He says, you know, I was looking through history and I was reading that the good guys won every war. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The good guys won every war. | |
| That's actually a really great way of putting it. | ||

Yeah. | |
| That dude was a genius. | ||
| Rest in peace. | ||
| Where we at? | ||
| Joshua Guthrie says wife just had a baby and listening to the show. | ||
| I hope you were there with your wife having the baby. | ||
| It just happened! | ||
| Yeah, it just happened. | ||
| We're like, doing the show. | ||
| It's like, your wife's in labor and you're like, gotta put on Tim Kast. | ||
| Well, it's like Mozart, but now it's... When he says wife had a baby and listening to the show, it sounds like his wife is in labor and like, put on Tim Kast! | ||
| Can't miss it, Posto's on! | ||
| He's gotta do the promo code! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Posto tweeted, he's gotta do the promo code! | |
| Which one? | ||
| Tanya? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa! | |
| Promo code Tanya does not exist. | ||
| You're talking about deepfakes, you're bringing up promo codes that definitely 100% do not exist and only the most despicable, vile people would degenerate even using false promo codes. | ||
| T-A-N-Y-A? | ||
| Yeah, T-A-N-Y-A. | ||
| Make sure it's not an O, it's an A. Tanya. | ||
| Yeah, Tanya. | ||
| Polarize says, Tim, you were angry at DeSantis for using a deepfake to show Trump hugging Fauci the other day, but if Trump and others, even the left, start using deepfakes to smear others, would you still decry Iran? | ||
| Why would I not? | ||
| My anger over making fake images to trick people into giving up their rights and their power doesn't end when other people start doing it. | ||
| It's like, Oh, look, there's groomers in that school. | ||
| What's that? | ||
| There's other groomers? | ||
| Guys, I don't care anymore. | ||
| That literally makes no sense. | ||
| If Trump started doing it, I will say the same thing. | ||
| If the left... The left always does it! | ||
| That's what they do! | ||
| Deepfakes, I believe, the first ever done was Ron DeSantis' campaign. | ||
| But the Democrats have been lying about everything. | ||
| They even lie about Trump lying about everything. | ||
| It's hilarious. | ||
| They're like, did you know that Trump lied about this? | ||
| And I'm like, oh, what did he say? | ||
| And then they lie about what he said. | ||
| And I'm like, he never said that. | ||
| You're lying. | ||
| It's it's it's insane. | ||
| I know, dude. | ||
| I mean, they have an entire indictment that doesn't even mention the fact that the president is allowed to declassify whatever he wants. | ||
| Or that, you know, Hillary Clinton did this and we all complained about it and they ignored it. | ||
| But she was never president. | ||
| That's my point. | ||
| No, what I'm saying is that what she did was no question worse. | ||
| She did not have plenary declassification powers. | ||
| She just had public records on a private server that she had destroyed. | ||
| Which at one point were being emailed to her by Jake Sullivan, who is the current National Security Advisor right now under Biden. | ||
| These people are evil, man. | ||
| She'd fire so many emails over to Jake Sullivan when they're classified. | ||
| It is not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. | ||
| What people like about Trump, what I like about Trump is that for all of his, you know, kind of brash attitude, he just says it. | ||
| The famous moment when he goes in front of the helicopters at the White House and he's like, we got a tremendous deal! | ||
| We're selling weapons to Saudi Arabia! | ||
| We're gonna make a lot of money! | ||
| And all the left was just like, he just admitted it. | ||
| He just admitted what the U.S. | ||
| does, sending weapons to these foreign countries to make money. | ||
| It's like, yes. | ||
| When the Syria thing, when he was like, we're getting our troops out, but we're going to keep a little bit in there for the oil, because we want their oil, you know? | ||
| It's just like, he's just admitting what we're doing! | ||
| It's amazing! | ||
| The Intercept called him the most honest and dishonest president we've ever had. | ||
| Because he lies about seemingly inane things that are related to his ego, but tells the truth about the horrible things the country has been doing. | ||
| You know, NATO is not paying its fair share, and, you know, all of that stuff. | ||
| The border. | ||
| Four years of peace and prosperity, baby. | ||
| But then you ask him about, like... | ||
| You know, his golden toilet or something and he's gonna tell you that he's the best and his house has all of these, you know, golden toilets or whatever. | ||
| I'm kidding about golden toilets. | ||
| But I mean, figuratively, if you ask him about his status or stature, he'll be hyperbolic as he can, he'll exaggerate because he wants to be big. | ||
| But then he'll just tell you exactly what the US is doing. | ||
| They did not like that. | ||
| He was the first person on the Republican side to come out against the Iraq War. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And he just outright said, your brother lied to us. | ||
| I was watching the clip. | ||
| Torched. | ||
| It was uncomfortable watching Jeb Bush in that moment because Jeb was just like, Like, he went into the crumple zone. | ||
| He was like, he actually, he was like an accordion, just squeezing out. | ||
| Please clap! | ||
| He was like, please stop. | ||
| Please clap. | ||
| Please stop doing it. | ||
| Because he knew there was no response. | ||
| There was no response. | ||
| You know, there is a way to do the please clap without being cringey, right? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| There is a way to tell people to clap without going, please clap. | ||
| You do the hands, you go, come on everybody, let's go! | ||
| You know, if you, like, nobody would have said anything if Jeb said something, something that's good, right? | ||
| Come on, you agree? | ||
| Everyone would have just clapped and cheered. | ||
| Instead he goes, please clap. | ||
| Well, this just happened in Oklahoma with Governor Stitt. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| He did a police clap? | ||
| He didn't do a police clap, but he kind of did, you know, going back to wrestling, it's like the promo. | ||
| So he does the promo for DeSantis and says, if you have a clip, it'll make more sense. | ||
| But he goes, he goes, and we all like Governor Ron DeSantis! | ||
| And there's that pregnant pause and nobody does anything. | ||
| And then he goes, Connecticut, amen! | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then everybody cheers. | |
| But that was better than police clap. | ||
| It was definitely that pregnant pause where, and whatever, I'll be fair, right, maybe they didn't know they were supposed to, like maybe they thought he was going to keep going or something, whatever, but he was clearly looking for an applause line and didn't get one, so then he goes, KINNEGAN AND AMEN! | ||
| I think that's right. | ||
| Page 22 says deep fakes can go one of two ways, political cartoon funnies or intentional | ||
| manipulation of the truth. | ||
| When people made fake images of Trump fighting with cops and being arrested, I thought it | ||
| was funny. | ||
| Like, dude, Trump was not arrested. | ||
| The images were clearly fake. | ||
| You could tell it was silly and people were like, can't wait to see something like this happen. | ||
| And we know we're getting dangerously close, but like, it's not real. | ||
| Well, he did attack his own secret service agents and take over the presidential limo, the beast, and drive up onto the steps of the U.S. | ||
| Capitol directly targeting Nancy. | ||
| And that's, and that's exactly what I'm talking about. | ||
| They lied. | ||
| It's just, the lie is insane. | ||
| I think, wasn't Trump not even in that vehicle at the time? | ||
| He was in an SUV or something? | ||
| Or, no, no, no. | ||
| He was in the motorcade and there's a barrier between him and the driver. | ||
| Obviously. | ||
| Jason Hutchinson says Jazz Jennings in Florida bothers me more than political smear in campaigns. | ||
| That was another thing that the DeSantis campaign tried brushing off and ignoring. | ||
| When I was like, where's Ron DeSantis on this? | ||
| You know what I think? | ||
| What's Jazz Jennings? | ||
| Jazz Jennings was transitioned from boy to girl, pre-pubescent, and then underwent Full surgery, full sex change operation at 17, and then I believe at the age of 20, Jazz posted an Instagram in Florida saying, getting another surgery, and this was during the DeSantis administration. | ||
| And so, there's a video that went viral of what clearly shows child abuse happening to Jazz as a child, and Jazz being depressed, and, you know, people are like, this is, we need help, we need child protective services. | ||
| Now Jazz is an adult, so, I don't know what you do there. | ||
| Oh, I think I remember this, because they're older now. | ||
| Yeah, and I said, this is all happening in Florida? | ||
| Where's Ron DeSantis? | ||
| And then Ron DeSantis' campaign people started attacking me, insulting me, and saying Ron doesn't have a time machine and can't go back in time to stop this from happening. | ||
| And then a bunch of people pointed out, no, Jazz was 20 years old and living in Florida under Governor DeSantis getting one of these surgeries. | ||
| And they're lying. | ||
| And it's the weirdest thing because they could have, one, said nothing. | ||
| Two, said, we are working on it. | ||
| Winky emoji. | ||
| And then, oh cool, fantastic. | ||
| Instead they went full on attack. | ||
| I wonder if their actual goal is to make sure Ron can't actually win. | ||
| Because it's weird how fervent Ron DeSantis supporters are. | ||
| I gotta be honest, it's very weird. | ||
| It's like, here's the thing I don't like about DeSantis, and then they'll just post a whole bunch of lies about you and start attacking you. | ||
| They started calling me a grifter because I was like, hey man, what's up with this? | ||
| The reality is I think that Ron DeSantis knows that if he actually does anything substantive in targeting an individual, he'll get annihilated in the press and he doesn't want it. | ||
| A lot of the stuff that he has signed comes from the Florida Republican Legislature. | ||
| Will Ron be able to actually do anything with a Democrat-controlled Congress? | ||
| The real victory would come in 2024 if the Republicans sweep. | ||
| Good luck. | ||
| They better get on that. | ||
| Call Scott Pressler. | ||
| It's their only hope. | ||
| If I can plug, we will have Scott Pressler, as well as Tucker Carlson, we will not be censoring him, Donald Trump, myself, Charlie Kirk, and Steve Bannon, this coming up July 15th, 16th, West Palm Beach, Turning Point Action Conference. | ||
| Scott Pressler, we've just announced Turning Point Action $5 million deal with him, just in the state of Wisconsin, directly targeting ballot harvesting. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Right on. | ||
| And that's 5 million just for Wisconsin. | ||
| There... Well, I can't say anything yet, but there's discussions of more. | ||
| Aaron Tabor says the Deep Floyd model can generate AI images with legible text. | ||
| It's already here. | ||
| Get ready for fun times as other models follow suit. | ||
| I went through my Instagram, and I was showing a skate video to a friend. | ||
| And as I'm scrolling down, I posted a picture and it said, I asked an AI to generate an image of Nancy Pelosi and here's what it made. | ||
| And it was the most freakish and disgusting image. | ||
| And that was the point. | ||
| But one year ago, it could not make a clear image of Pelosi. | ||
| One year later, you can make an indistinguishable photo of Nancy Pelosi banging the gavel in Congress. | ||
| Those pictures with Fauci are, I mean, If I didn't remember 2020, I think they were real. | ||
| Yeah, I think in the future people will remember those pictures as being real. | ||
| They're gonna say this. | ||
| The one of him with the cops pulling him. | ||
| There's gonna be people who saw that video and didn't think twice. | ||
| And in six months, they're going to be like, yeah, well, you know, Trump was all buddy, buddy, hugging Fauci and all that. | ||
| And they're going to be like, no, he didn't. | ||
| But I saw the pictures. | ||
| Because because the real war isn't necessarily over what's on Twitter or what's on YouTube. | ||
| It's over memories. | ||
| It's the memories of the people who see it. | ||
| And so if I can implant an image in your mind, because humans are visual creatures, right? | ||
| Our prefrontal cortex, everything is set up for vision. | ||
| Text is something that came up way, way, way later. | ||
| So the idea that we are set to remember all of these images that we see and be affected by those images. | ||
| That's why, I mean, we're enacting, right? | ||
| You get this. | ||
| That is why those images and the argument, I think, is a strong one for being very careful with this. | ||

| Uh, I'm Ian Cross, and yo, you may have saw us sipping on this liquid death. | ||
| It's, uh, delicious sparkling water, and we're not, uh, being paid to advertise this stuff, but, uh, I really like this stuff. | ||
| Well, yeah, it's because it's metal. | ||
| It's metal, it's not in plastic. | ||
| So we've been, you know how I always rag on plastic? | ||
| And we got, like, the glass bottles? | ||
| So, uh... | ||
| We started buying liquid death for our bottled water. | ||
| It's a canned water. | ||
| Sweetened with agave nectar. | ||
| Well, those are the flavored ones. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But like, I guess the company initially was just selling water in cans. | ||
|
