| I'm David Pakman. | ||
| This is the second trove, and oh boy, we got some juicy stuff in here. | ||
| A bunch of A-list celebrities were named, but of course it doesn't mean that anything wrong, it just means that Epstein liked to walk around claiming he was friends with a lot of celebrities, but you know, maybe we should take a look at who these people are, because it's been known for a long time what Epstein was doing, but the big story Is that according to one of the emails in the documents, Bill Clinton went to Vanity Fair and demanded they not report on what Epstein was doing with his trafficking, if you know what I mean. | ||
| And so this appears to be an accusation, a report, a claim, be very careful here, that Bill Clinton was trying to cover up what Epstein had been doing. | ||
| Questions are, why? | ||
| So far it's only speculation, but oh boy, we better talk about that one. | ||
| We got some political news as well. | ||
| The other day, there was reporting of widespread bomb threats. | ||
| Numerous state capitol buildings sparking evacuations. | ||
| For the second day in a row, this has happened. | ||
| It's happened again. | ||
| Many more evacuations. | ||
| Things are getting crazy out there. | ||
| And then, of course, political news. | ||
| According to Newsweek, Joe Biden's volunteers are quitting in droves. | ||
| They're abandoning the campaign. | ||
| This is gonna get real crazy, and I'm hoping it gets crazy in the sense that it becomes so overwhelmingly positive towards Trump that there's not even a question of political conflict at all, and everyone's like, yeah, Trump wins. | ||
| And everybody wants him to. | ||
| But we will see what happens. | ||
| My friends, before we get started, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member to help support our work, and as a member, you see that banner right there? | ||
| TimCast at the Iowa Caucus, January 15th. | ||
| Buyer tickets now, members only. | ||
| Now, we launched, we're doing a town hall with Vivek Ramaswamy on the 10th. | ||
| Very, very difficult to pull all this off, but we're going to do it. | ||
| And it's expensive, but we're going to do it. | ||
| And we sold out those tickets instantly. | ||
| I'm not kidding. | ||
| There's not that many tickets. | ||
| They're all gone right when we posted it. | ||
| This time we're posting only for members. | ||
| You've got to be a member if you want to buy the tickets. | ||
| They're a bit more expensive. | ||
| They're $150. | ||
| The Iowa Caucus IRL show is going to be longer. | ||
| It's going to be an extended show where you're hanging out, and we are absolutely going to be taking questions from people in the audience. | ||
| So this is more like directly engage and interact with the show. | ||
| We have a multitude of guests that are going to be joining us, not just Vivek. | ||
| It's a caucus, so everyone's going to be there. | ||
| We've got an... I don't even know who we're going to have. | ||
| But a lot of really great people, of course, Seamus and Luke will be joining us, and it's gonna be a lot of fun. | ||
| So become a member. | ||
| As a member, you can then also get access to the tickets, but you'll also get access to our uncensored members-only show, which is coming up tonight. | ||
| And I will address, for those last night that are wondering what happened to the show, it is not just YouTube's rules, but there are rules that every single social media platform, even X, has, that if the rules are broken, the show is gone. | ||
| We talked about exactly what happened when we moved to the Uncensored Show, and whenever a show gets taken down here on YouTube or any other platform for that reason, we will move to the Uncensored Members Only on TimCast.com to explain what's going on. | ||
| And the reason we do that is because that is quite literally where you can say almost anything you want unless you're breaking the law. | ||
| We don't, we can't, no one allows that. | ||
| My point is this. | ||
| There's a reason why Axe, Rumble, YouTube all have rules against doing things that are illegal. | ||
| And so, there's nothing we can do about it. | ||
| If the show is off, it's because Usually what happens is something was said and, you know, show gets pulled. | ||
| But it will be on TimCast.com. | ||
| And for all those that are wondering, the episode is up in full on Rumble, on iTunes, on Spotify, and all podcast platforms. | ||
| It was available as soon as the show wrapped for free for everybody. | ||
| So become a member if you want to support our work. | ||
| Also go to castbrew.com, buy Cast Brew Coffee. | ||

|
unidentified
|
Alright, so I used to be a reporter, I'm an analyst. | |
| Right now I took a time off, so I'm trying to get back into everything. | ||
| But yeah, that's why I'm a reporter, truth seeker, truth teller. | ||
| Right on. | ||
| You've had a lot of experience with politics, to say the least. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Covering, you know, the Tea Party movement, covering the Trump campaign, covering Trump's presidency, covering 2020, and then everything went downhill from there. | ||
| Because, you know, the new America. | ||
| Hopefully it's going uphill from here? | ||
| Is that what we want to happen? | ||
| Going uphill? | ||
| It sounds hard. | ||
| Uphill sounds exhausting. | ||
| I don't want to go uphill. | ||
| I want to be on top of the hill already. | ||
| Going downhill? | ||
| Well, you got to go back up at some point. | ||
| But anyway. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When things come up, things go down. | |
| Should be fun. | ||
| Thanks for hanging out. | ||
| Hannah Clare, of course. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thanks for having me. | |
| Hey, I'm Hannah Clare Brimlow. | ||
| I'm a writer for scnr.com. | ||
| That's Scanner News. | ||
| Hey, I want to say thank you guys for following at TimCastNews on Twitter. | ||
| We just hit 100,000 followers today. | ||
| So we're really excited about that. | ||
| Couldn't do it without your support. | ||
| And I'm very excited because Brett's here tonight. | ||
| What is going on, guys? | ||
| Yes, my name is Brett Dasovic. | ||
| I am the host of Pop Culture Crisis, Monday through Friday, 3 p.m. | ||
| Eastern Time, right here on YouTube. | ||
| So I saw somebody talking about, like, when New Year's came, and they mentioned, they're like, wow, I hope we have a really, really uneventful 2024. | ||
| I said, in an election year, yeah, yeah, let's, let's, nah, it's not gonna happen. | ||
| Off to a rough start, four days in. | ||
| Four days in. | ||
| And here's what we got, here's what we're gonna do. | ||
| We're gonna, we're gonna do it. | ||
| Everybody, Check out Pop Culture Crisis on YouTube right now. | ||
| You want to show this, Serge? | ||
| We got it right here. | ||
| Pop Culture Crisis, 91,700 subscribers. | ||
| Y'all go subscribe to Pop Culture Crisis because the show format is very similar, except when you super chat on Pop Culture Crisis, money guns fire $20 bills into the air, and it's really funny when it lands in the guest's drink or hits them in the face. | ||
| But as you can see, Pop Culture Crisis talks about pop culture issues. | ||
| So it absolutely does. | ||
| It overlaps. | ||
| It overlaps. | ||
| We're going to be talking about celebrities and Epstein's Island tonight, and all of these things. | ||
| You talked about Star Wars the other day. | ||
| These topics, Disney, all of these things, are very, very relevant to the culture. | ||
| We get into it a lot about whether these things actually matter, because a lot of conservatives are under this opinion that pop culture doesn't matter. | ||
| Well, your kids are getting information from somewhere, and they're pushing these ideologies on the next generation somewhere, and you have to be Aware of what's actually going on if you want to fight back against this. | ||
| What time are you guys live? | ||
| 3 p.m. | ||
| Eastern Standard Time. | ||
| So this is the point of Pop Culture Crisis. | ||
| Not everybody cares about... The headline of this video is Epstein List, right? | ||
| You know a bunch of people who are gonna be like, oh, I don't care about that. | ||
| But when you get a new song that comes out, a new movie, a new show, most people are like, oh, I want to know about that. | ||
| And these are the people, when these shows come out, it's these personalities that are influencing the younger generation. | ||
| So that's why Pop Culture Crisis exists, hosted by Brett and Mary Morgan. | ||
| So go subscribe, and let's crack 100,000 subscribers and get that silver play button. | ||
| Also, we got Serge hanging out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, indeed. | |
| You should check out Pop Culture Crisis. | ||
| I should be on there eventually in the future. | ||
| I know that I haven't been lately. | ||
| When you've got the time. | ||
| When you've got the time, my friend. | ||
|
unidentified
|
One of these days it'll happen again. | |
| I'm Serge.com. | ||
| Let's get into this episode. | ||
| From the daily beast of all sources, Bill Clinton pressured Vanity Fair not to write about Epstein, new docs claim. | ||
| An email from the newly unsealed court documents reports, quote, B. Clinton walked into VF and threatened them not to write about Epstein's sex trafficking. | ||
| You know, we actually have this. | ||
| The Calvin Coolidge Project tweets out the email. | ||
| It says, uh, good points, all of them. | ||
| I'm looking at both sides of the picture. | ||
| On the upside, I will give exposure to build up publicity for the case, etc, etc. | ||
| We'll skip over. | ||
| And then it goes, uh, goes down to say, uh, let me find this point. | ||
| It must be carefully written, and not give any notions about the upcoming book for any new info. | ||
| When I was doing some research into Vanity Fair yesterday, it does concern me that they could want to write about me, considering that B. Clinton walked into Vanity Fair and threatened them not to write about sex trafficking articles, and his good friend Jeffrey Epstein, should I be asking, what is this story they're writing pertaining to? | ||
| I just thank goodness... | ||
| For having a friend like you on the inside who knows how to deal with the viciousness of today's world. | ||
| There's another email. | ||
| It says, I would let Vanity Fair buy your picture via Brad. | ||
| The big gamble would be to let him also give the statement saying your interviews with us were accurately reported and you have no more to say this time about how you were trafficked to PA and other men, including two of the world's most respected politicians, redacted and redacted, as well as women, Who do you think it was? | ||
| because you are writing a book. | ||
| P.A. of course, Prince Andrew. | ||
| And the other crazy thing is in the documents yesterday, there was a statement from a witness | ||
| about who they had been trafficked to, and one of those names was still redacted, | ||
| and the question is why? | ||
| Why, what? | ||
| So you of course had Prince Andrew, you had Jean-Luc Brunel, | ||
| and then there was a name that was redacted. | ||
| And everybody wants to know what was that one name? | ||
| Who do you think it was? | ||
| If you had to put money on it. | ||
| Bill Clinton. | ||
| I feel like Bill Clinton's the most obvious, but, you know, the fact is that it could be a lot of people, which is even more disturbing. | ||
| I disagree. | ||
| I agree and disagree, okay? | ||
| It could be a lot of people. | ||
| Fair. | ||
| Okay, that's obvious. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| But how is it that Jean-Luc Brunel's name is released Prince Andrew? | ||
| How is it that a document released that's supposed to have these names unredacted for public interest, one name still gets redacted? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe they weren't informed that they've been subjected to being... that they were called out by the witnesses. | |
| No, that wouldn't matter. | ||
| There actually is a fairly easy and obvious reason that would... something that would supersede a civil claim. | ||
| So you have these documents, journalists file a lawsuit saying, freedom of information, release the names, the court says yes, and Redex one name. Why? National security. What could | ||
| supersede a lawsuit on freedom of information that would result in the documents being released keeping | ||
| one of those names covered up? National security reasons. And that person's still in office. Bill | ||
| Clinton. No, not still in office. | ||
| this. | ||
| If that comes out, we know Clinton's named in these documents, but he's not named as actually having done anything related to trafficking, just having been flying on the plane and been around these people, and Jeffrey Epstein said Clinton likes them young, and now we're learning from the latest document dump that Clinton allegedly went to Vanity Fair and tried to cover up the Epstein story. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What year was this email? | |
| Oh, let's let's pull it. | ||
| Let's pull that. | ||
| It's probably like what do we have 2011? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| I mean none of this is surprising at all who remembers when Amy Roback got caught on the hot mic talking about how she had the story about Epstein and that her producer killed it said she couldn't wasn't allowed to do it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That was what 20 2015 or something like that. | ||
| There was a I mean there was a long time where Epstein was being covered up. | ||
| This is Post one of his sex offender convictions though, right? | ||
| Like there was a time when everyone knew that Epstein had a history. | ||
| He had been convicted in Florida and yet we still weren't willing to talk about him. | ||
| It's a very strange time. | ||
| Some people think it's Joe Biden. | ||
| This is my like current theory that actually Joe Biden is going to be on the list. | ||
| I know we were floating Hunter earlier before the show but I think Joe Biden is sort of a more precarious variable. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It can't be because he was too long. | |
| Yeah, it's too long. | ||
| It's too long. | ||
| No, no, that's it. | ||
| Brett nails it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Take Hillary Clinton. | |
| No, it's not long enough. | ||
| So take a look at the length of the black bar. | ||
| But that's not what matters. | ||
| Because when you're doing redactions, the the placement of the redaction could be it's someone clicks it and drags it. | ||
| We don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We don't like the same size as Prince Andrew that name. | |
| But, right, so you look at the commas of where it's placed in the document because the spacing of the text is not altered. | ||
| And then what you can do is you can go from comma to comma and you can actually determine how many characters exist in this person's name. | ||
| You don't know, it could be three in their first name and seven in their last name, or seven in their first name, three in their last name, who knows? | ||
| But it looks like it's about the length of, probably, not Jean-Luc Brunel, that's too long. | ||
| Maybe, though. | ||
| Maybe, though. | ||
| Prince Andrew. | ||
| Bill Richardson seems to fit rather well in that spacing. | ||
| I'm not saying it's literally Bill Richardson, I'm saying a name of that size. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dershowitz. | |
| It doesn't seem like it would be Bill Clinton. | ||
| No, Dershowitz is named outright in these documents, so you don't need to redact that. | ||
| And his name's longer. | ||
| I don't think Clinton. | ||
| Because if it said Bill Clinton, you can tell it would be shorter. | ||
| So not Bill Clinton. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And it won't be Hillary, right? | |
| You never know, she could be a part of it, like the madame of the madame. | ||
| But these are guys. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is me not looking at the emails and just depending on it. | |
| I mean, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because you know what I really want? | |
| You know why I'm not really like depending on the documents? | ||
| Because a lot of this is like hearsay. | ||
| I really just really want to see the JP Morgan list and see who he paid off. | ||
| Because that's where you find out where the real crimes were hidden. | ||
| Damn, maybe that's where Stephen Hawking is. | ||
| Maybe that's his name right there. | ||
| You think that's an F letter? | ||
| I was very sad that I didn't get to talk about the Stephen Hawking stuff last night. | ||
| Colin Rugg tweeted this yesterday. | ||
| He said, a single name is redacted in a list of individuals who Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly directed underage girls to have sex with. | ||
| Who is this person? | ||
| The redacted name was next to former New Mexico governor Bill Richardson, billionaire hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin, Prince Andrew, model scout Jean-Luc Brunel, and computer scientist Marvin Minsky. | ||
| Release the name. | ||
| I think it's a national security thing. | ||
| Prince Andrew is not a national security issue for the United States. | ||
| I'm willing to bet it could be someone who's currently still in office. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But then you're saying, like, Oh, it's national security, that means it has to be somebody current because Bill Clinton is over there, like it's out there. | |
| It has to be current. | ||
| Like, Clinton, former president, still have Secret Service, and so they could argue that, like, information retained by the president... I mean, they'd say this, like, if a former president was directly implicated in these documents, the national security implications for this country would be nuts. | ||
| Treaties could be at risk, border disputes could ignite, anything Bill Clinton had done could start to unravel, it could cause problems in the stock market, so absolutely You could say Jimmy Carter, for all we know, and they're going to be like, no way. | ||
| But I don't think it says Bill Clinton. | ||
| I think the redaction bar is too long. | ||
| The spacing is too wide. | ||
| It says Joseph Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Joseph R. Biden. | |
| Yeah, but it's R. Biden, isn't it? | ||
| No, what is it? | ||
| He has more than one middle name, doesn't he? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, it's Robertina, something like that. | |
| I think it's just Joseph R. Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, Joseph R. Biden. | |
| It's even worse if the fact that they're a serving president gets to keep them off the list and then using national security as a crappy excuse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I in this day and age and oh, you're right. | |
| Yeah, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah, the junior. | |
| So then I don't think that uses his middle name, though. | ||
| And I think Joseph R. Biden would be too long. | ||
| And then he's popularly known as Joe, I think the same way that they're listing. | ||
| That's why they did it. | ||
| Hypothetically, Prince Andrew has a last name, too. | ||
| There's no reason to say Joe Biden. | ||
| People are saying Joe Biden because he's president right now. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And well, one thing I can tell you, we know it's not Donald Trump. | ||
| For a fact. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can it be Barack Obama? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Barack Obama may fit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because think about it, this is 2011. | |
| Well, Obama was serving as president in 2011. | ||
| This document's actually not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is 2016. | |
| Yeah, it's 2016. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, the question is... But like you said, everything could be unraveled. | |
| Why is this rejected now, though? | ||
| I don't think Barack Obama. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No? | |
| No. | ||
| I think Barack Obama's into other things. | ||
| I don't think this is kind of his jam is... | ||
| And this is, I mean, I can't flesh this theory out totally right now, I'd have to do some research, but Prince Andrew, Bill Richardson, they're actually closer in age. | ||
| From what I understand, Barack Obama is slightly younger than them. | ||
| So there is sort of a similar age group of people. | ||
| That means they were running in similar circles. | ||
| Barack, in some ways, was sort of outside that. | ||
| And I think he has different proclivities. | ||
| I can't speculate on his proclivities, partially because my mind... I'm half-joking, actually, and I'm sure the chat is just igniting over what that means about Barack Obama's proclivities. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You just got my mind thinking, like, who... The guy at the bar. | |
| Him and the guy at the bar. | ||
| Michael. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm just thinking about national security, and I'm just trying to think, who worked in Obama's administration that is now working in tons of them? | |
| The thing is, Biden's administration is heavily staffed by former Obama. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You got my mind spinning. | |
| But it's not high enough profile person. | ||
| It doesn't need to be a president. | ||
| It could be a dude named John Jackson. | ||
| His name is redacted because he worked for the CIA. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But if you could think of, what's his name? | |
| Secretary of State. | ||
| Blinken. | ||
| It does say on the next line, another prince. | ||
| Like there's Prince Andrew, John Luke Brunell, Bill Richardson, another prince. | ||
| Which one? | ||
| Somebody name this prince. | ||
| Wow, really? | ||
| Another prince? | ||
|
unidentified
|
The petty little one? | |
| Or the one that doesn't know what he's doing? | ||
| Wait, that's actually a really good point. | ||
| Nobody pointed out. | ||
| It says, other than Glen Dubin redacted, Prince Andrew, John Luke Brunell, Bill Richardson, another prince, the large hotel chain owner, and Marvin Minsky, is there anyone else What do you mean another prince? | ||
| That's my breaking news journalism. | ||
| Who is the second prince? | ||
| And it doesn't have to be like the Queen of Denmark just announced kind of abruptly on New Year's Day or Eve that she was going to resign. | ||
| So there's this moment where I'm like. | ||
| Is it someone in the Danish monarchy? | ||
| Because there are princes there. | ||
| Her son, the prince, is about to become king. | ||
| I'm not here to slander him. | ||
| I'm just saying, hypothetically, we're thinking British monarchy, but there are tons of princes out there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And nobody's famous like the two brothers. | |
| I didn't even realize this. | ||
| Nobody cares about royalty the way I do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I like the queens. | |
| Who's the large hotel chain owner? | ||
| I mean, that's also interesting, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's his name? | |
| Cassimatides. | ||
| Because he's a really... Jack Cassimatides. | ||
| Yeah, he's based in New York. | ||
| And he donated to a lot of Republicans and Democrats. | ||
| He's a billionaire based out of New York. | ||
| His daughter's the chair of the Manhattan Republicans. | ||
| I just think I'm like... Look, look, look. | ||
| Colin Rugg tweeted this and he's like, who's the redacted name? | ||
| And I'm like... Who is this other prince? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who's the other prince? | |
| Now we got this prince. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But then maybe if we knew who the redacted name was, we might also know who the other prince was. | ||
| What if it said like, and an artist formerly known as Prince. | ||
| That's what I said, as long as it's not, it can't be that prince. | ||
| As long as Minnesota is safe. | ||
| Leave Minnesota out of this. | ||
| I don't want any besmirchment to his name. | ||
| Okay, check it out. | ||
| Someone actually did the work. | ||
| They said, using Courier New, the redaction is 16 characters long. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now everyone's gonna be sitting here like... This is the best crossword puzzle ever! | |
| I know, right? | ||
| I was like, can we just play Tetris now? | ||
| Now people will have to start looking at politicians and getting character limits on all of their names so they can start putting them in there to see who it ends up being. | ||
| I think it's important to point out, however, the name has 15 characters because there's a space between the first and last name. | ||
| There's one source reporting, or one publication, The Messenger's reporting that one of the victims said she had sex with Hyatt Hotels billionaire Tom Pritzker. | ||
| I thought it was Pritzker. | ||
| I thought it might be Pritzker. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wait, the brother of the Chicago governor? | |
| I mean, not Chicago, Illinois governor? | ||
| Governor. | ||
| Is that JB Pritzker? | ||
| Yeah, he's... They're related? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, no, I don't know. | |
| But that family is... That proves it! | ||
| Then that brings in Obama, because again, Illinois, Chicago. | ||
| Got it. | ||
| Nailed it, guys. | ||
| You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And his sister worked in the Obama administration. | |
| Alright, here's what we're gonna do. | ||
| We've got the power of 45,000 people right now. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, a name with 15 characters. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| So, it's 16 total characters, but we assume there's a space there, because I doubt whoever they're naming goes like a single name, because usually single names are small, like Bono. | ||
| But, uh, we've got, so, so, someone who's got a name with 15 characters, and I know between the 45,000 people, someone can figure it out. | ||
| Or at least make some good guesses. | ||
| So, uh... Crowdsourcing. | ||
| Good luck. | ||
| Crowdsourcing. | ||
| Prominent, high-profile individual. | ||
| Here's what we're thinking. | ||
| Someone who has the ability to get a FOIA request release redacted still. | ||
| This potentially could be one of the Doe's that has requested. | ||
| So, let's take a look at who are the remaining people that have got to stay on their names being released. | ||
| It could be that the name was not released because they've got an appeal. | ||
| But then we're going to know which Doe, John Doe or Jane Doe it is, who's getting that delay. | ||
| Is it possible that they're rejecting the name because that person is cooperating with whatever investigation? | ||
|
unidentified
|
But isn't the investigation kind of mostly over? | |
| I don't know. | ||
| I thought it was never happening. | ||
| This is not an investigation. | ||
| This is a civil lawsuit for defamation. | ||
| It never actually went anywhere. | ||
| It was settled out of court. | ||
| The documents get released and now people are speculating as to the criminal elements that may be involved in this. | ||
| My first speculation is, I would say this, in starting the investigation, the assumption I would make is something related to national security allowing the name to remain redacted. | ||
| So we're thinking law enforcement, politics, you know, like law enforcement intelligence agencies. | ||
| It could be, however, also related to those who requested an extension on having their name remain redacted. | ||
| So, here's the important thing. | ||
| The people who said that, uh, there's Jane Doe 107 saying, don't release my name because I live in a conservative country and it'll be bad news for me. | ||
| These are accusations of child trafficking. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Who could get their name redacted, and Prince Andrew couldn't? | ||
| Prince Andrew could not get his name withheld from this, but this person could. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But didn't his family excommunicate him? | |
| Sure, sure, but still. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Before all this happened, they excommunicated him, that's why they were able to release his name like that. | |
| Am I wrong in thinking that he already faced a lawsuit in... | ||
| Yeah, the only reason I knew about that is when that Harvard thing and then apparently the sister is in the board. | ||
| been established. You were right about the Pritzkers by the way. JB Pritzkers related to the Hyatt family. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah, the only reason I knew about that is when that Harvard thing and then apparently the sister | ||
| is in the board. Yeah. And I was like, when I started like, trying to like, find out who's | ||
| A lot of them are like Democratic donors. | ||
| Harvey Weinstein fits. | ||
| People are pointing that out. | ||
| But why would he be redacted? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| He would not be. | ||
| Of all the people, he's the least likely to be redacted. | ||
| So that's why I'm thinking like... But I'm loving the brainstorming. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Think of former FBI, CIA guys. | |
| That worked in the Clinton administration, Obama administration, even Bush administration. | ||
| Bush had a bunch of Democrats. | ||
| So, I mean, theoretically, that would be military then, right? | ||
| There are a couple of different military, like, secret, or heads of military organizations that have been carried over through several administrations. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But no, I was just thinking about it, like, think of, like, the guys who worked in the CIA, worked in the heads of the CIA, FBI, to be, like, national security. | ||
| Let's jump to the next portion of this story. | ||
| I love this headline from Fox News. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein documents name A-list celebrities. | ||
| I hate this. | ||
| A little click, baby. | ||
| Just a little bit. | ||
| Just a little bit, because it is factually true and it's relatively vague. | ||
| But I gotta be honest, I don't know how you would actually title this story while trying to provide the context that they're not potentially wrongdoers. | ||
| TMZ just listed names and then just said no wrongdoing. | ||
| It just listed in the headline that there was no wrongdoing found. | ||
| No, they put it right in the headline, right in the main headline on the website. | ||
| It listed it almost like a lot of people say, depending on what your opinion in the media is like, oh, they're just covering up for them because my favorite thing to always point out is like whenever they talk about Epstein, like there's like several documentaries on Epstein, they're all on like Hulu and all these things. | ||
| And they all have pictures of him and Trump on there because the media hates Trump and they want to tar him TMZ is like, these people are bread and butter. | ||
| You cannot disperse their good name. | ||
| We need them to create our beautiful content. | ||
| I mean, the Fox story is, I agree with Tim, it can be really hard to headline because you're trying to get it out quickly. | ||
| A long headline is wordy. | ||
| On the other hand, it was annoying scrolling through this article because they'd be like, ah, yes, somebody asked if you would ever met George Lucas from Star Wars. | ||
| And she was like, no. | ||
| And so that's the mention or something. | ||
| Exactly, exactly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm just shocked about this whole thing is that there's no bank executives named. | |
| But so like Wall Street is like clean from all this. | ||
| So it's only like, you know, I mean, this is just who they asked about in the deposition. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's not one single wall. | |
| This is not this is these are not the Epstein client. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, I know that. | |
| But I'm just saying like, I mean, that obviously would be part of it. | ||
| Well known like Wall Street executives. | ||
| That's what I would I would say these documents don't get anywhere near the majority of the clients that we want to see exposed. | ||
| Because this was part of a defamation lawsuit. | ||
| A lot of these documents that are being released are related to the original investigation into Epstein that were used as evidence in the defamation trial. | ||
| That's my understanding. | ||
| Could be wrong. | ||
| That's what's being reported. | ||
| We'll be very, very, very careful here because you got a lot of people's names are getting wrapped up in this stuff. | ||
|
unidentified
|
For that deposition, it was Palm Beach who did the investigation, right? | |
| Uh, I don't know. | ||
| Was it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's I remember like Palm Beach did like this thorough investigation and then that's what only it didn't lead to any state or federal charges only led to that civil that's almost like there's so many missing pieces to everything going on in this. | |
| I love how, okay, so let's go through the list. | ||
| They say, Naomi Campbell is named, Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett, Bruce Willis, and Cameron Diaz. | ||
| George Lucas, Michael Jackson, Kevin Spacey. | ||
| Okay, now that last one. | ||
| Alright, now the last one, okay, but the other ones, I don't know. | ||
| Did you watch his thing with Tucker? | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| I don't know what's going on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm just mad he ruined House of Cards, it was so good, and then the last season just sucked. | |
| Technically, he didn't ruin the show, his bad life choices are what ruined the show. | ||
| He's gotta win an award for when he was accused of all this wrongdoing. | ||
| He should win an award for his response, where they're just like, Kevin Spacey, you've been accused of rape on several instances, and he goes, I'm gay. | ||
| I am a gay man. | ||
| I have two things to live my life this way. | ||
| I thought that was incredible. | ||
| But also he doesn't, he's not interested in the flavors that Epstein seems to be offering, right? | ||
| So I don't know that this is actually, he is not a good person necessarily, but I don't know that he's actually someone we'd expect to see on the list at all. | ||
| There are a lot of people who are accusing him that have mysteriously died in the last several years. | ||
| Four or five have passed away before, you know, being able to take him to court. | ||
| But he was acquitted, what, now twice in the UK and more? | ||
| But that video with Tucker Carlson, I was like, we were watching, we were like, who is this fool? | ||
| Like, I legitimately can't figure out who it's for. | ||
| It almost looks fake. | ||
| Like, if you watch the video full screen on a larger TV, it almost doesn't look real. | ||
| And it feels like this weird- Like, what do you mean? | ||
| Like, it almost looks green screen in a way. | ||
| Like he green screened Tucker Carlson in? | ||
| Yeah, like they added him in there. | ||
| And he makes these great allusions to House of Cards in the show when he talks about, you know, pushing journalists in a certain direction, which is a very clear push to the end of season one. | ||
| It was just it was it was rough. | ||
| But it was it was really weird to watch because I'm like, who is he? | ||
| Tucker Carlson's wearing like acid wash jeans. | ||
| I'm like, is this true? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are you trying to say this is an AI generated video? | |
| I don't think it is. | ||
| But like, there was just... If it was, surely Tucker's team would have spoken. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, he's wearing acid-washed jeans in there though. | ||
| Maybe he's just trying to explore his sense of fashion, though. | ||
| No, because in the thing, Kevin Spacey basically alludes to, he's like, do you ever watch Netflix anymore? | ||
| He says to Spacey, probably as much as you watch Fox these days. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's funny! | |
| I do want to say, I am fascinated that of all the names that are in there, Jimmy Kimmel is not. | ||
| I'm so sad. | ||
| The reason is not because I think, you know, I want outrights. | ||
| I'm not accusing Jimmy Kimmel of doing anything wrong. | ||
| It's that he was actually business partners with Epstein's chef. | ||
| And so when Aaron Rodgers said, you know, Jimmy Kimmel must be worried about this. | ||
| And then Jimmy Kimmel threatened to sue him. | ||
| I was like, well, hold on. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, like what do you have to hide? | |
| It's not that, it's that what Roger said was completely reasonable. | ||
| This guy worked with, what was the guy, Chef Perry Lang or whatever the guy's name was? | ||
| He was Epstein's personal chef and my understanding is there was a report that said that they were co-owners of a restaurant or that Jimmy Kimmel was in some way involved. | ||
| There's videos of them, they're friends. | ||
| So if Jimmy Kimmel appeared in this document, I would not be surprised. | ||
| I'm not saying he did anything wrong. | ||
| All these celebrities that are being named, 99% of them, there's no accusation of wrongdoing, they just ask them, did you ever see Bruce Willis there? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, but just the way I hear it. | |
| When anyone who's named, I'm sure, does not actually want their name to come up in this, even if it's completely innocuous, it would be nicer to not be involved at all. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just look at his reaction. | |
| He was like, if you keep mentioning my name, I'm going to sue. | ||
| It was just like, why are you getting so chumpy about this? | ||
| The thing is, though, is we're pointing out the fact that when you read these documents, a lot of these people aren't accused of wrongdoing. | ||
| Just putting your name and Epstein's name next to each other now is enough to tarnish you. | ||
| So it doesn't matter if they're not being accused of wrongdoing just by being associated with it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But the media's going to cover you up because they have trouble. | |
| So you feel like Kimmel's fear was somewhat reasonable? | ||
| I think if you're not doing anything wrong and your name comes up in something like this, then it's probably a pretty reasonable response to be like, I don't want to be attached to this at all. | ||
| And there's no legal recourse, right? | ||
| It's not like you can sue the documents for a lot, like there's kind of nothing you can do about it. | ||
| You feel like there's a lot of ghoulishness to all of this. | ||
| People were talking about how all of these names coming out has been like album drops. | ||
| It's been made light of so much that it's kind of hard to... You have to read what's actually happening here to reacquaint yourself with just how horrific so much of this stuff is. | ||
| And if we were to get a client list, in some ways, would people be like, but we already kind of got this weird list that sort of meant nothing, is in some ways this weird drip of information actually making people less interested in what was going on, the fact that there were people, you know, who potentially were promoting human trafficking and using their wealth and status to get terrible things. | ||
| So we were talking just a moment ago about there's this, you know, this list of names, and one of them's redacted. | ||
| We think it's probably a name with 15 characters, including a space, giving a total of 16 characters, and somehow this name got redacted. | ||
| I'm loving all of these, all the speculation. | ||
| Some people are saying, like, Harvey Weinstein fits, sure, but of all the names to be redacted, his would be the last. | ||
| Because he's locked up, or I don't know, is he still in jail? | ||
| He's still in jail. | ||
| But someone just super chatted, Stephen Colbert, and I'm just like, okay, well I really do appreciate the hatred we have for the corporate press. | ||
| I don't think Stephen Colbert has the national security level keep that redaction. It's a lot of clout for Stephen Colbert. | ||
| A lot of clout for Stephen Colbert, considering like billionaires and millionaires and even | ||
| Prince Andrew couldn't keep their names out of it. That's why I'm assuming national security. But | ||
| good guesses. But it's all highly speculative. I mean, we got no idea. And I think really the | ||
| best way to do it would be if you had, you know, somehow compiled a list of people who have been | ||
| known to have flown on the airplane. | ||
| And then you go through and you count the characters. | ||
| Because otherwise, like, I could just shout out names for the rest of forever and probably wouldn't necessarily... It has to come from a list of people that were already known or rumored to have ties to Epstein. | ||
| And I don't know necessarily that Stephen Colbert was. | ||
| There's a lot of names that fit. | ||
| And it's kind of crazy because the chats lighten up. | ||
| And they're saying a bunch of names. | ||
| And I'm like, these names all fit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just wonder at the end of all these document drops. | |
| At the end of it, we're just gonna come out and be like, what is what at the end? | ||
| What is this? | ||
| Everybody's just gonna be speculating? | ||
| Is just anything's ever gonna come out of all this the way how they're just dropping this like nothing changes. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| I do not believe that we're in a period where we can say nothing changes because everything has changed. | ||
| For the first time in US history, the former president's been indicted. | ||
| It's not just an indictment, I mean they're coming after him in ways... | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're trying to keep him off the ballot. | |
| Keeping him off the ballot is soft war. | ||
| It is shutting down the election. | ||
| The side that's doing that to him is the side that's on the list, so they're going to prevent anything from changing because they're not the ones that they're... People are... Now, if Trump's name was on the list, then yeah, sure. | ||
| No, but this is the point. | ||
| They've never been threatened before. | ||
| And now these people on the list are doing things that have never been done. | ||
| It's changed. | ||
| Something happened in this country that has put these people in fear for their lives. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Social media. | |
| And the generation is waking up. | ||
| Or, yes, perhaps that's what leads to a Donald Trump election in 2016. | ||
| They never thought possible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And I do believe there's a strong possibility that should Donald Trump get elected, | ||
| yeah, the names that get released in this go to jail. | ||
| I do believe that's possible. | ||
| I'm not saying it's probable. | ||
| I'm not saying it's a guarantee. | ||
| I'm saying I would not be surprised. | ||
| Look, there's that clip going viral right now where Donald Trump was asked about Bill Clinton and he goes, nice guy, but he's got a lot of stuff coming up with that Epstein, you know, and everyone's like, what did Trump know about this? | ||
| So what happens if Donald Trump, look, Donald Trump says, I am your retribution. | ||
| This guy's pissed. | ||
| There's a possibility. | ||
| Maybe it's 0.1%. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| He gets elected. | ||
| And the first thing he does is he says, I want to know everybody who works with Epstein and we're going to lock them all up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, he has to get the FBI guys to do it. | |
| Well, I think part of it is that would be one of the only ways to restore public trust. | ||
| I think that if an average American... I mean, with everything that happened with Hunter Biden this year and his plea deals and this very obvious two-tier justice system, I think if Trump were elected, actually seeing someone who is on Epstein's list, a known associate who partook in all of this stuff, being sent to prison is actually the only way to get the American people to think maybe there is a reason to trust We have a good answer. | ||
| We have a good answer. | ||
| Someone said, this is Barrett 1313, it's Alan Dershowitz. | ||
| And the reason why his name was redacted is because Giuffre recanted her accusations against him in 2022. | ||
| But you know what? | ||
| I got to push back on that. | ||
| His name is all over these documents. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| All over them with accusations of raping children. | ||
| So that being the case, I don't think this one time they redact his name. | ||
| Does William Burns fit? | ||
| He's a- No. | ||
| No. | ||
| Okay, he was CIA. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's CIA right now. | |
| Yeah, but he's like theoretically someone who flew on one of Epstein's planes. | ||
| Oh, interesting. | ||
| So- No, that's too short. | ||
| Too short? | ||
| But look, even if- I'm learning something amazing. | ||
| There are a lot of people in government who have 15 character names. | ||
| Because people are posting all this stuff. | ||
| I'm like, oh, that's actually a really good point. | ||
| Like there's too many of them. | ||
| I don't know which one you pick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Talking about the hunt of Biden, did you see the reports from the Democrats from the Democrat oversight? | |
| They released a report talking about like Donald Trump obtained like $7.8 million from foreign governments because they all stood in his hotels when he was president. | ||
| So they're trying to say that was a form of collusion that what the Republicans are doing and attacking Hunter Biden, Donald Trump did as president. | ||
| And nobody's really talking about it except for if you watch it on MSNBC, but they're trying to really make this as now the biggest deal ever. | ||
| It was Jamie Raskin, he's doing this. | ||
| It started today. | ||
| But because of everything with Epstein, everybody was really into this, I wouldn't be surprised if they're going to try to turn the tables and use that report against Trump as another way. | ||
| They're trying to throw everything to make it stick at him. | ||
| And they were already doing that when he was in office. | ||
| They tried to argue repeatedly that he was making money off of it. | ||
| Someone said, ask Grok, this is Joshua Park, ask Grok for powerful people with 15 letter names. | ||
| So I went to Grok and I said, give me a list of politicians who have 15 characters between their first and last name. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this list is damning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay, is it American or foreign? | |
| Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, George Washington, John Adams. | ||
| No, wait, wait, hold on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
None of these people have 15 characters in their names. | |
| Oh, so Grok is covering up for Epstein. | ||
| I knew it. | ||
| I knew this was corrupt. | ||
| I knew Musk was too good to be true. | ||
| Straight to the top. | ||
| Free speech, my ass, over there. | ||
| Oh, that's crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's becoming a foreign concept nowadays. | |
| I mean, I think part of, like, first off, I feel like this is the new version of Wordle, and I'm really expecting it to, like, vibrate and be like, you got some of the letters right, just rearrange them. | ||
| If one of these, if, like, they should do a crossword puzzle in the New York Times and actually include this in there. | ||
| Who is the... I'm sure Bill Clinton said don't. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wouldn't be surprised. | |
| Bill Clinton has already marched in it and been like, do not dare. | ||
| Don't you dare. | ||
| That would be so fun. | ||
| Wasn't there a case where, like, he wanted delegates to stay at Mar-a-Lago and host an event there and they made him not do it, Trump, during it when he was in office? | ||
| What was that for? | ||
| Do you remember that? | ||
| I don't remember the details. | ||
| I mean, there was also a report I saw a long time ago that Joe Biden had personally hosted, like, diplomats in his home in Delaware, but then I had a really hard time tracking that down. | ||
| I think that there are probably reasons people ask for things like that, but, you know, it's very easy to be like, no, Mr. President, that is a violation of government. | ||
| And he's like, okay, they can't see my golf course. | ||
| I mean, like, there were all kinds of things, like, there was a reason that Trump put his sons in charge of the business and left off, you know what I mean? | ||
| I think you did as much as you could to mitigate potentially having conflict in that case. | ||
| The thing about Hunter Biden is that the more that comes out about his case, the more obvious it is through his emails and everything. | ||
| That he was specifically saying, I am the son of an influential American politician and... Give me my money! | ||
| If I get benefits, you get benefits. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And there's no evidence that anyone in the Trump organization has done that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, but that's what they're trying to do. | |
| They're trying to say like, He didn't recuse himself, which he actually did. | ||
| I remember that press conference right before, during his, um, the transition. | ||
| And they're trying to say, like, he didn't recuse himself. | ||
| His name was still under the Trump organization. | ||
| I mean, his name was still literally Trump. | ||
| And to a certain extent, yes, of course, that name gained even more prominence than it already had. | ||
| But on the other hand, you know, as far as I know, and I'm not an expert on his business dealings, it's not like he was like, I am President Trump. | ||
| Now, Eric, go tell everyone in Ireland that I'll open a golf course there because I'm the president. | ||
| Like, it wasn't that way. | ||
| That's very different. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They act like the Trump Hotel was created in 2015. | |
| It's not like he was doing this, you know, for decades before. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's very, very strange. | ||
| But, you know, I obviously think it's important to hold politicians, their families accountable. | ||
| I mean, this is what's interesting about all of the legislation that's getting pushed in Congress right now, saying We should be really wary of the stock trades being made by politicians. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm sorry, Grok is so stupid. | |
| I asked it for a list of politicians with 15 characters in their names, and it gave me a list of just 15. | ||
| First, it gave me, like, James Mann. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So it gave you the first 15 people. | |
| So then I said, give me a list of politicians alive today, and it gave me a list of random politicians, and I said, none of those, I wrote, none of those people have 15 letters in their names, and it goes, oh, I'm sorry, that list didn't actually adhere to what you had asked. | ||
| And then it went, I said, so make a list with 15 letters, and let me see if I can pull back up. | ||
| I closed it. | ||
| It's 15 characters, right? | ||
| Because obviously there's going to be space in it. | ||
| And then it said, apples, bananas, cherries, dates, elderberries, figs, grapes, honeydew, iceberg. | ||
| I just put it, I'm like, okay. | ||
|
unidentified

Those are like code names. | |
| It's on regular mode. | ||
| It's not on fun mode. | ||
| Should we ask, what's the other one? | ||
| Gemini? | ||
| ChatGPT. | ||
| No, let's jump to this next story here. | ||
| While we discuss the darkness that is happening in this country, we do have good news. | ||
| It's from Newsweek.com. | ||
| Joe Biden campaign volunteers are quitting in droves. | ||
| Take a look at this. | ||
| A group of staffers working on President Joe Biden's re-election campaign warned the President that his volunteers are quitting in droves over his handling of Israel's military response on the Gaza Strip. | ||
| Biden has faced immense pressure from members of his own party over U.S. | ||
| policies in light of the surprise Hamas attack on October 7th. | ||
| We have a lot of people come on the show who are Jewish. | ||
| That may be surprising for many people who watch to know. | ||
| Well, other people think it's too many people who are Jewish. | ||
| We get criticized both ways. | ||
| I think we have 10 times the national average of guests who are Jewish. | ||
| Someone did a thing, it was like 21% of our guests are Jewish or something. | ||
| And I'm like, yeah, that's probably because they're Abrahamic conservatives. | ||
| I don't know, whatever. | ||
| And they're prominent social media personalities or whatever. | ||
| But I literally don't care. | ||
| However, We talk to a lot of these people, and it's really fascinating to hear what they'll say behind the scenes about their family members. | ||
| They'll say on the show, a lot of progressive Jewish individuals are waking up to what the left is and what Democrats are doing because of the attack on Israel. | ||
| Behind the scenes, they'll say the same thing, but be a bit more specific, because they don't want to put their families at risk. | ||
| I can respect that. | ||
| And they'll say, like, I got an aunt, and she's liberal, and she came freaking out, like, what's going on? | ||
| And I'm like, I told you! | ||
| I'm just imagining all of the Hanukkah dinners Where you had these liberal Jewish people meeting with their conservative relatives and the conservatives were like, we told you this was going on and you didn't believe us and now they do. | ||
| And now you take a look what's going on with Joe Biden's campaign. | ||
| This split is insane. | ||
| Joe Biden is losing staff members because he won't support Hamas? | ||
| Who are they? | ||
| They're not staff members. | ||
| I mean, they might be paid, but they're saying volunteers, which is probably people who are volunteering in their early 20s, mid 20s, maybe up until early 30s. | ||
| And that group of progressive liberal people And so it's interesting because it's actually a huge age divide. | ||
| That's what I think the Democratic Party is starting to realize, that the older members, basically the boomer Democrats, have a very different position on this international issue than their younger cohorts. | ||
| So instead of it being like, yes, come take this position, volunteer. | ||
| A third batch may have just dropped right now, within the past few minutes. | ||
| That's why you see such an outsized influence of that discussion on social media now. | ||
| When you look at comment sections on Instagram, it's all Free Palestine. | ||
| And TikTok, right? | ||
| This is what we've heard reported over and over again that the mainstream media might be presenting a more pro-Israel presentation, but TikTok was predominantly pro-Palestine. | ||
| Those Gen Zers do love Osama bin Laden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But it was actually the media that blew that up, that story. | |
| Cause like, it was only like a few people who had, it was like, TikTok was like only like few million and then the media talked about it and next thing you know, it blew up to like billions of views. | ||
| Yeah, I mean a few million is still a lot to me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I know. | |
| But I was gonna say, compared to TikTok views, that's like nothing. | ||
| Like right now you're seeing a live feed. | ||
| We've had however many decades of colleges that have told you that the place | ||
| that you were born from is evil and that your ancestry is evil | ||
| and all of those things that your progressive and leftist professors have indoctrinated | ||
| into the previous generations is finally coming to pass as the new generation hits all of these problems | ||
| in society right now. | ||
| There's no love of old Americana or what this country used to be. | ||
| There's no sense of identity here anymore. | ||
| And all they're left with is a deep burning hatred for this country and a lot of its allies. | ||
| Not surprising that Joe Biden is losing his young volunteers. | ||
| And I'm presuming they're young. | ||
| I haven't read all of this. | ||
| I guarantee you they're on the younger side. | ||
| The same way that Harvard is losing its older billionaire donors who are saying | ||
| the things that you're teaching the students, the positions the students are taking | ||
| are incongruous with my views and I no longer want to support you financially. | ||
| The thing that young people have to offer any sort of influential campaign is their time and their energy. | ||
| It's not the billionaire donor that's out knocking on doors, although they contribute in a different way. | ||
| Their financial contribution means a lot to Harvard, but political campaigns need the young people. | ||
| I think it's good, right? | ||
| It's not that I like conflict, it's that I like this party having to reckon with itself, that it is saying one thing. | ||
| Like, it bothers me a lot that people are always like, the Republican Party is about to fall apart and it's crazy. | ||
| And in my position, you know, I think conservative movements have lots of different parts that occasionally make, basically, become allies at times on certain issues. | ||
| Whereas Democrats tend to be very lockstep, you believe these things. | ||
| But they no longer realize that they are the party that is preaching things that The older leadership doesn't believe in. | ||
| It's interesting to see them fall apart in front of our eyes. | ||
| Well, we saw that starting with when AOC got elected and when a lot of these younger progressives got elected, right, that there was great divides. | ||
| But she kind of ended up being more of a... she fell along party lines on a lot of issues eventually. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The fact that she voted for the Ukrainian aid, you're supposed to be a progressive. | |
| At least Thomas Massey didn't even vote for that. | ||
| But Massey's really interesting because he's ultimately principled. | ||
| He has certain things that he believes in and he will not back down on them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But that's when I think you lost the progressives right there. | |
| The minute they said yes to this, and they said that we're never gonna fund any war, no matter how strong their allies are, or how fake our allies are with them, we're not supposed to be funding this. | ||
| Wars. | ||
| We have to be, like, we have to fund healthcare, we have to fund this. | ||
| And then all of a sudden you started seeing, like, they voted no problems. | ||
| They didn't even, like, use it as a bargaining chip, like they did with the Build Back Better. | ||
| Like, they were using that over Nancy Pelosi's head. | ||
| That's why it was never been able to pass. | ||
| And then it took a while that it, like, had to come back, and then Joe Manchin got involved and all that. | ||
| So, the fact that they didn't use that over the Nancy Pelosi's head, that was really telling about the progressives. | ||
| So I think now they're using this to show, to like bring back the power that you once had. | ||
| But then it comes to the fact that like, what is your principle? | ||
| Are you for the war? | ||
| Are you against the war? | ||
| Like, what are you exactly for? | ||
| Like, it's a lot of... I think you look at a story like this, and this it's the year has only just begun. | ||
| And I see two things from this. | ||
| The first is, you know, we are winning by a lot. | ||
| With the purchase of X, the boycott of these big companies, the organizational power of the anti-establishment and the pro-constitutional republic faction is tremendous, and seeing more and more victories every single day. | ||
| And then you see that Joe Biden's volunteers are quitting over an ideological split. | ||
| The Democrats are fractured, they're falling apart. | ||
| We've already gone through years of the viral story, Democrat quits party. | ||
| How many times did we see a story like that? | ||
| Remember when they were calling into CNN being like, I'm quitting! | ||
| I will never vote Democrat again! | ||
| No, no, this was last, like, a year or two ago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, but I'm saying, like, every time there's a war going on, they always say, I'm gonna quit the Democrat Party. | |
| Do they really do? | ||
| Yeah, they do. | ||
| And so, in the past few years, you had that viral story where they were calling in a C-SPAN and complaining about what Joe Biden had been doing. | ||
| Yeah, it was crazy. | ||
| And it goes viral. | ||
| We get more and more of that. | ||
| Now we've got, you know, every couple of months, a Democrat quits and switches to the Republican Party. | ||
| Now Joe Biden can't even keep volunteers on because they're far-left extremists. | ||
| It's kind of fascinating if you think about it because a lot of this is fueled by foreign interference using social media manipulation, and I love how the left claimed that for so long over Trump, but the reality is it's targeting them. | ||
| They always project. | ||
| You get these apps that are advocating for Hamas, and then these young people become pro-Hamas, and then all of a sudden they quit Joe Biden's campaign, creating a direct Like, probability of Americans uniting around actual American values. | ||
| So if all of these young people are being subverted into supporting things like Hamas, but it's not the majority, all that will happen is these people have no political power, America will prevail, the Constitutional Republic will prevail, Donald Trump will get elected. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But are they really, like, going back? | |
| Are they really supporting Hamas? | ||
| Are they really trying to, like, support the Palestinian cause? | ||
| Like, the Palestinian people? | ||
| Hamas. | ||
| So, are there Hamas? | ||
| Yes, Hamas. | ||
| Yeah, look, a week, we can sit here and talk about all the people who are, like, pro-Palestine. | ||
| I am specifically referring to people who are pro-Hamas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why? | |
| Why am I referring to them? | ||
| Because they, in New York, were marching around, chanting for Hamas and calling them heroes. | ||
| Oh, well, okay, I get what your point, but when they had rallies in New York, rallies, you talk about people who are when they had rallies in New York, and, and, you know, several hundred people show up, the speakers at these event would get up and say, the freedom fighters fired 5000 rockets landing in Tel Aviv, and they all clap and cheer and scream. | ||
| So those are pro Hamas protesters in New York City. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Sure, if you want to argue that there is an individual on social media who doesn't like Hamas and they're pro-Palestine, I know many of them. | ||
| I'm not talking about them. | ||
| You're allowed to be pro-Palestine. | ||
| But the problem is, most of these people are calling Hamas freedom fighters. | ||
| That's why they're mad. | ||
| And the idea is that it will uniquely leech votes from the Democrats, assuming that they don't end up just falling in line when the next election comes. | ||
| Because a lot of them do, right? | ||
| Like, as much as they hate it, they end up falling in line, vote blue no matter who. | ||
| Doesn't really matter. | ||
| But it's really common, at least. | ||
| The hope would be that they're so ideologically inclined that for once, they won't just end up voting on party lines because they actually have a problem with the... They actually do support Hamas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But did you see the recent USA Today poll? | |
| They said young voters, younger than me, younger than 35, Trump leads by like about 2 or 3 points. | ||
| Yup. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And that's really shocking. | |
| It's like the 3rd or 4th poll. | ||
| I always thought that like, you know, between 20 and 30s, you're gonna vote blue because you're like so lost until you start paying taxes and you're like, holy crap, I gotta vote Republican because I cannot anymore, like the Democratic Party. | ||
| So you're wondering like, these Gen Zs, like a lot of them are crazy, but a lot of them are actually waking up. | ||
| Yeah, I think they're very divided. | ||
| I think that you'll have, there'll be an extreme generation where some people sit very far at one end of the political and ideological spectrum and some people end up sitting, unfortunately, extremely far on the other side. | ||
| And so I think that it's sort of like when you talk about the economy and you have the disappearing middle class, I think there is the disappearing moderate class of Gen Zs. | ||
| And, you know, the question would be, Are they able to reconcile or do they ultimately meet on the other end of the political horseshoe? | ||
| And there are norms that we would view as extreme. | ||
| The things that they agree on are out of the box. | ||
| We're not going to expect them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Also be very, very, first of all, be very, very careful of any polls that are conducted this early in the election season. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, but it's too telling. | |
| I always think of it as like a quiz. | ||
| But also, be very careful because what happens a lot of time is if they start projecting that Trump is super far ahead, then people get complacent and they think, I don't have to go out and vote, so I'm not going to. | ||
| So don't lose, depending on what your thoughts on voting are, if you're really, really pro-Trump, whatever it is, don't allow that to make you complacent because I do think a lot of times they end up doing that. | ||
| I mean, theoretically, it would, I mean, I wish, I don't think this is the case, it would fuel a sort of down ticket sprint where people are saying, well, I know exactly who I want to vote for, even if he's ahead, who else do I care about? | ||
| Who do I care about on the state level? | ||
| Who do I care about representing me in the Senate and Congress? | ||
| You know, who is my governor? | ||
| Because we feel like you've locked up one office, that shouldn't be enough. | ||
| I don't think this is actually how voters operate. | ||
| This is my idealistic worldview that if you feel like, well, I definitely know who's going to be president, you want to send them into their term with strong support, both in Congress and in the states. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But we'll see. | |
| But going back what you said, like you said, be careful. | ||
| But maybe you never know. | ||
| Maybe they're using to say they want to vote for Trump so they could get rid of Biden and put somebody like Gavin Newsom, a younger Democrat. | ||
| You never know. | ||
| That could be telling. | ||
| That's why I say I always think of these polls as quiz. | ||
| And then when you start going into all these votings, I think of it like all the delegates are like the midterms, like the midterm, like when you take a test in college. | ||
| And then so the general election, that's your final. | ||
| That's how I see it. | ||
| So when people are like writing off the polls, I'm like, no, gotta be careful. | ||
| These polls are do telling. | ||
| Also, was that done nationwide? | ||
| Was that done in a specific area? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, the USA today was nationwide. | |
| Okay, it was nationwide, okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But it was telling, like, Joe Biden's losing support for blacks by 25 points from, like, 2020. | |
| He's losing Hispanics. | ||
| Trump is leading with Hispanics. | ||
| Young voters. | ||
| And Trump's gaining. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And he's gaining! | |
| So, like, Biden went from, like, 80 to 60. | ||
| But do you think that's people who would... | ||
| You know, part of it is, what I'm curious to see is if there's a large number of voters who sit out this election. | ||
| Like, what is voter turnout actually going to look like? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think the young ones are, if it's going to be Biden. | |
| So I'm thinking that's what I'm saying. | ||
| Just because they're not voting for Biden doesn't mean that they're nationally gained by Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| Remember, a lot of people sat out 2016 because they said, like, I don't like Trump or Hillary. | ||
| I'm just sitting this one out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But the same thing in 2020. | |
| They sat out too. | ||
| But I'm saying... Not anymore. | ||
| Yeah, not anymore. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| These polls can be telling as a way of trying to push Biden out. | ||
| Donald Trump is, in swing states, winning amongst people who did not vote in 2020 by double-digit margins, some up to 40%. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
These polls could be telling to push him out. | |
| I think it's Michigan. | ||
| In Michigan, they poll people who did not vote in 2020, and Trump has a 40% lead. | ||
| So he's like, it's like 60, you know, 30 or something. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the whole thing, going back to the Hamas war, like... Probably 60-20. | |
| Is it a war? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Trump is leading with the Arab-American votes and the Republican Party cannot take that for granted. | |
| They have to understand both sides of it. | ||
| It cannot be all 100% pro-Israel. | ||
| I think the Republican Party is much more tolerant of different views. | ||
| I think the Democrats are way, way more at each other's throat. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Trump is very for both sides. | |
| But you see, look at the debate stage. | ||
| They're both, like, the stances, between the stances and Haley, they're both groveling between trying to get, like, the Israeli and AIPAC, you know, endorsements. | ||
| They're more worried about that than they're worried about the American people. | ||
| But that's because they're so far behind in the polls. | ||
| I mean, it almost doesn't matter what they're trying to do because ultimately The popular vote indicates that they support Trump and Trump is taking a position that is attempting to be moderate which also Joe Biden has attempted to be moderate on the issue and it's failed because people don't trust him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But I'm saying but like going if the first time ever this poll has ever with Arab American community and Trump is leading and remember they try to push the whole Muslim ban and they try to like everything with Trump. | |
| The fact that he's- The what? | ||
| What? | ||
| The Muslim ban. | ||
| What was that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
The whole like they were trying to like the like if you look going back to Michigan, that's a heavily populated area of Arabs and Trump is leading. | |
| And that's what... Dearborn. | ||
| Dearborn. | ||
| What Muslim ban? | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Muslim ban. | |
| They try to push that against, like, um... Who tried to push it? | ||
| The media. | ||
| Remember the first thing... You're saying the media was lying about Trump claiming he wanted a Muslim ban? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Right, right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So that's the one thing, when it comes to Arabs and Muslims, that's the one thing they just don't like about Trump. | |
| But they love everything about his economic policies and stuff like that. | ||
| But when it came to Israel, even though Trump was very pro-Israel, he did have an understanding of working. | ||
| The first country he visited was Saudi Arabia. | ||
| Yeah, Abraham Accords. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, and he worked on that. | |
| So, but the fact that the Republican Party is taking it for granted, and they're only picking one side, and they're groveling, and then you say, like, yeah, well, they're behind the polls. | ||
| Look at, like, DeSantis. | ||
| He's, like, bashing. | ||
| I just think that Republicans take a third side, which is to say that they don't really want to have an interventionist position at all. | ||
| There are a lot of Republicans. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But they sound like Bush in the base stage. | |
| They sound like Bush Jr. | ||
| or Dick Cheney with three enchiladas and lipstick. | ||
| So it just reminds me like the Republican Party and even like the RNC like they have no Fs given about the minority and the people the colored people who are choosing to be Republicans because they only want to pick the side that they're used to the whole establishment. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| We have to be careful with this like the polls are telling but Republicans they're very known for fucking shit up. | ||
| I always say that, like... I mean, this is again why I think it's interesting that there are so many Republicans right now who, you know, theoretically they could be divided. | ||
| They could say, I support this side of that war, I support this side of the war. | ||
| But there are a fair number of them who are like, the thing is, our focus has to be domestic. | ||
| Of course! | ||
| Our focus has to be on what's going on. | ||
| And I don't really hear a similar echo. | ||
| In the democratic party. | ||
| It might be there and just not might not be as loud. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're not here. | |
| Republicans have a another position to take that is not available to democratic politicians right now. | ||
| Democratic politicians have to pick a side. | ||
| That's what their voters want. | ||
| Whereas if you're a republican voter and you know maybe you feel real strongly about one side maybe feel strongly with the other. | ||
| If you have a republican saying well Obviously, this is a big conflict, there's a lot going on there, but my priority is to secure our border and to secure our infrastructure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, but there's this, like, we need to fund Israel, we need to make sure they have problems. | |
| We need to eliminate them, like, this is war to combat, like, and then you have DeSantis insulting Arabs, which is, now you're, like, triggering me, and, like, you're losing people's respect. | ||
| And, like, he shouldn't be talking, like, talking about, like, Arabs wearing man dresses. | ||
| I wouldn't be talking when you're wearing three-inch heels, boy, and you're down in the polls by 55 points. | ||
| And you're trying to, like, catch up with a girl who's like an Alibaba version of Hillary Clinton. | ||
| But do you think, like, for minority voters that are joining the Republican Party or who are likely to support a Republican candidate this time, do you think they are looking for candidates who support a certain side of the war, or would an America First position appeal to it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It has to be an America First agenda. | |
| That's the only reason why they want to come to this country. | ||
| He also does need to bring up the Abraham Accords a lot, I think a good amount, because the people who are voting America first are going to be all in on your domestic policy if you're talking about closing the border and shoring up things there, right? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But right now with international conflict being such a big part of the story, pushing them to see that there was a time not that long ago when we did have a more stable world view. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have the Republican parties on the stage pushing to fund a country that has a budget surplus when we're running a budget deficit. | |
| And we can't even keep up. | ||
| We just hit $34 trillion. | ||
| That's the best argument. | ||
| We just hit $34 trillion yesterday. | ||
| And we're growing. | ||
| Everybody here owes $105,000 in debt for what? | ||
| I didn't pay for that for college. | ||
| I didn't owe that for my mortgage. | ||
| But I gotta pay that for some war? | ||
| So Israel's got a budget surplus? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Do you know what it is? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, their budget surplus, their GDP is about 4% a year. | |
| And we're funding the military. | ||
| We fund 3.8 billion a year. | ||
| They run a budget surplus. | ||
| In between two wars right now, the American people... For the first time in 35 years, as of January of 2023, Israel posts a budget surplus driven by higher tax revenue. | ||
| So what are they looking at? | ||
| They're looking at a budget surplus of 2.85 billion dollars. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How much do we give them? 3.8. | |
| So they actually, they could cover a good portion of that at this point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, but we want to get the 14 billion and like right now we have like no money. | |
| They're like, you can pay a little bit more of taxes, can't you? | ||
| You can go ahead and do that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're not going to be able to save on Trump taxes! | |
| The American politicians have no problem bleeding us dry, right? | ||
| So they don't have a problem with that. | ||
| And that's an issue right now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The fact that they want to tie it to border security. | |
| And I'm sick and tired of these Republicans running and trekking down to the southern border. | ||
| Check your ass back to the Capitol right now and get something done. | ||
| The border is out of control. | ||
| Well, let's talk about this. | ||
| We have a tweet from Elon Musk. | ||
| He says, at this point, there is no question that this administration is actively facilitating illegal immigration. | ||
| The numbers speak for themselves. | ||
| Let me just say that one more time. | ||
| Elon Musk says, Joe Biden is facilitating illegal immigration. | ||
| Let me one-up that for you, Elon. | ||
| The Biden administration is actively colluding with human traffickers. | ||
| That's a fact. | ||
| They've been doing it for years. | ||
| There's multiple news reports loading children. | ||
| They're smuggling children. | ||
| They're trafficking children on planes in the dead of night. | ||
| There's videos of this. | ||
| And you can look at all the statements from politicians. | ||
| It's been a story for five years now. | ||
| Take a look at this graph. | ||
| By all available metrics, this administration's border policy is a disaster. | ||
| Take a look at this. | ||
| Under Trump, there was a major spike in encounters. | ||
| And we know this because that's when we got the caravans. | ||
| Trump went nuts. | ||
| Then we see a massive decline to the lowest level we've seen in a long time because Trump said, we're going to shut this down. | ||
| As soon as Joe Biden's elected, he opened doors. | ||
| Just take a look at the numbers. | ||
| They speak for themselves. | ||
| We have unprecedented illegal immigration. | ||
| And right now, the Biden administration is suing Texas, attempting to do everything in their power to stop the border states from putting an end to the invasion, the incursion of 10,000 plus people per day at the southern border. | ||
| This is sedition against the United States. | ||
| It is a direct violation of the Constitution. | ||
| And I will say this, I've said it several times. | ||
| The only reason it happens is because there are people in law enforcement who say to themselves, I know it's wrong, but I've got to feed my kids. | ||
| That is the argument made by every corrupt individual who exemplifies evil. | ||
| They cut a deal with the devil to save their families. | ||
| And I totally understand why they would. | ||
| Because they want to make sure their kids have full bellies. | ||
| And they took the deal with the devil, figuratively or literally, however you want to see it, to sell out and destroy this country for themselves, for their short-term gains. | ||
| The only thing is, those kids will inherit a pile of embers because of what they've done. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, this is a really interesting argument because if you work for, you know, Customs, Border and Trail, if you're working at a federal level, theoretically, Texas is really trying to do the opposite, right? | ||
| Texas is trying to enforce border laws. | ||
| So you could maybe leave your job for a state-level position and still get to work in your chosen field and also have a governor who is willing to back you. | ||
| There are ways that, especially with the border, that you don't have to be necessarily supporting the Biden administration who is trying to undermine all immigration laws that are on the books. | ||
| I just gotta get a little biblical with it, and I'll say this again. | ||
| If you are an atheist, by all means, you're allowed to be. | ||
| I'm not a Christian. | ||
| Take this all as metaphor. | ||
| Take it figuratively. | ||
| If you are religious, take it literally. | ||
| When we had the guys from Angel Studios talking about the film The Shift, Where the benefactor transports a guy to a reality without his family. | ||
| And he says, I'll give you everything back. | ||
| I'll give you everything you've ever dreamed of. | ||
| Just serve me. | ||
| And instead, the man begins to pray and refuses to serve what is figuratively the devil. | ||
| And I believe they said it was effectively like the story of Job. | ||
| You know, and I'm not, it's been a really long time since I studied these stories. | ||
| But no matter how bad things got, he would never just give in and take the assistance of the devil. | ||
| So this is what I see, figuratively, literally, however you want to cut it. | ||
| There are federal law enforcement agents that are actively working against the local residents and law enforcement of Texas to stop them from protecting their homes. | ||
| And these people are doing it, and I would say full well, they know what they're doing is evil, but they're saying to themselves, yeah, but if I leave this job, my kids won't have food. | ||
| Because we hear it all the time. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Your kids won't have food. | ||
| So, as you're in service of darkness and evil, and cutting that deal with the devil, you know, I certainly understand why you did it. | ||
| Not like anyone's going to forgive you though. | ||
| No, I mean, I think especially with the border crisis as bad as it is, I wonder if Democrats look themselves and say, I'm going to vote for Joe Biden, even though that's a vote to continue human trafficking across the border, right? | ||
| It's a vote to continue drug trafficking. | ||
| Until now, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Until now. | |
| They'll say all the time, you know, human trafficking is bad and this is awful and whatever else, except when it's on their doorstep and they could theoretically do something about it. | ||
| I mean, I can understand where if you've been told shutting the border makes you racist. | ||
| Yeah, they don't think of it as human trafficking. | ||
| But that's what they should think of it as. | ||
| Those are the real world consequences. | ||
| You know, a lot of Republicans talk about the drug trafficking across the border, which is obviously awful. | ||
| It affects a lot of Americans. | ||
| The opioid crisis is You know, just a complete assault on our nation. | ||
| On the other hand, if that argument won't do, if you don't care what happens to Americans, why don't you care what happens to young children and women who are trafficked across the border? | ||
| Like, at what point do you recognize that you are advocating for a international violation of any kind of human decency? | ||
| And instead, they're like, no, it's bad. | ||
| We gotta keep the border open. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| I mean, this is the thing. | ||
| This is my favorite topic, actually, to talk about with people who are left-leaning because it's like, A lot of people who would vote Democrat are bleeding hearts, right? | ||
| They believe that they're trying to help people. | ||
| And if you're able to say these policies harm people, they are more likely to be open to them. | ||
| I think the border is a crazy issue because there were so many Republicans who would not talk about it. | ||
| They were afraid to be called racist. | ||
| They were afraid to do whatever. | ||
| I mean, the Republican House, I think, or Congress wouldn't necessarily—they fought giving Trump funding for the border wall when he was in office because they were like, well, it's not that big a priority. | ||
| Right, and look at us now. | ||
| Like, this is a major issue. | ||
| We are paying the prices. | ||
| And in fact, we had a president that wanted to intercede earlier, who wanted to stop this. | ||
| And even if you don't like Trump, right? | ||
| Don't you care about human trafficking? | ||
| Don't you care about neighbors in your communities dying of drug overdoses? | ||
| Like, this is the big reckoning at the border, which is it was messaged. | ||
| Messaging around it was like, if you want to close it, you're racist. | ||
| It's an issue of framing. | ||
| But are they getting that message? | ||
| It's a hugely compassionate issue to say we are not going to have this finish line, at which point people are | ||
| incentivized to send their families to people who want to traffic and harm them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But are they getting that message because you have all these organizations that are saying like, they're screaming | |
| the racism. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And there are a lot of organizations that are built around encouraging people to cross, like non-profit organizations that are structured around encouraging people to cross the border. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| And so why would you turn off that cash flow if the purpose of your non-profit is to solve an issue like trying to get people to cross illegally? | ||
| Puts them out of business if they solve the problem. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can you guess how much the cartels made in December alone with the record-breaking of $300,000? | |
| $2 billion. | ||
| A day, I'm talking about. | ||
| In a day? | ||
|
unidentified
|
A day. | |
| How much do they make? | ||
|
unidentified
|
$32 million a day from this. | |
| It's also an issue of framing. | ||
| I think this has a lot to do with the echo chambers that most people who follow politics find themselves in. | ||
| So you can frame that issue in that way, and it's accurate, but sharing the horrors of what's going on is not going to be how they receive that information. | ||
| They're not going to get the information from somebody who's willing to share all the facts of what it actually means to go through a border crossing, right? | ||
| Not the coyotes, Not all of the drugs that come through. | ||
| It's being framed to them, whether it's by MSNBC, CNN, any of these places, as a humanitarian issue that they have to be a bleeding heart on. | ||
| So therefore, they don't get the full breadth of what's actually happening, which is why their views don't change. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'd love to see... I got an idea. | |
| I got a really, really great idea. | ||
| When these people come to the border and they demand asylum, what we do is we get them a very comfortable bus. | ||
| Really nice one. | ||
| I'm talking like, you ever see those luxury buses that go from like New York to DC and they got recliner chairs? | ||
|
unidentified
|
So by the Greyhound? | |
| They're not. | ||
| Greyhounds are not comfortable. | ||
| But they got these really nice ones. | ||
| It's like super cheap. | ||
| And then they got these big chairs up top and you got this glass. | ||
| Oh, this is really great. | ||
| You can see everything. | ||
| We'll put all the migrants on there and we'll bring them to Native American reservations. | ||
| And then when the left, you know, advocates for immigration, we'll say absolutely. | ||
| Yeah, we'll send them to the Native American reservations. | ||
| What's wrong? | ||
| Why are you upset? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Aren't they like federally protected? | |
| Sure. | ||
| So here's the solution. | ||
| The reservations are federally protected, federally recognized. | ||
| Texas is upset about it, doesn't want people there. | ||
| Here's a solution. | ||
| The left thinks migration is a good thing. | ||
| So who would complain if we send these immigrants to Native American reservations? | ||
| Everyone should be happy, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's true. | |
| Well, this idiot mayor of mine, well, former idiot mayor of mine, because I don't live in New York City anymore, he's suing the Texas bus company. | ||
| So I mean, how much damage is that going to do? | ||
| I think the answer here is just for Abbott to send the migrants to Native American reservations and then ask the left why they're upset if they get mad about it. | ||
| They should be very happy because migration's a good thing, right? | ||
| If you like it so much, why don't you encourage it everywhere? | ||
| It's weird, right? | ||
| I mean, this is- We know what'll happen. | ||
| The left will call him racist and start attacking him because it's- That's what they're doing. | ||
| If the migrants come to this country, it's a good thing. | ||
| But you know that if a governor sent them to a Native American reservation, they'd say, how dare you? | ||
| You're racist, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| I mean, look how fast they cleared out Martha's Vineyard, right? | ||
| We don't like migrants going to certain places. | ||
| The liberal banshee shrieking over the Martha's Vineyard thing was hilarious. | ||
| The most NIMBY of NIMBY. | ||
| No, I think it's crazy. | ||
| I mean, the other part that bothers me about this is like, where were you guys back in the day? | ||
| I love that Republicans have gotten on board. | ||
| I will be a little bit cynical right now and say this has been an issue that anyone could have spotted for a long time. | ||
| And I just don't understand why people didn't embrace it sooner. | ||
| I can never understand that. | ||
| And it was also something that at least back in the early 2010s and earlier that Democrats at least paid lip service to, right? | ||
| They pretended to want to close the border. | ||
| Bill Clinton in one of his state of the news was like, let's close the border. | ||
| It's important. | ||
| Obama mentioned it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Obama had the most support in any Democratic presidency in the last 30 years. | |
| Deporter in chief, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
So it's not completely... Look at his immigration rates. | |
| This is like Biden's biggest accomplishment. | ||
| It's not the economy or not the stock market that like, you know, recuperated all 2022's losses. | ||
| It's the fact that he's broken the migration encounters every single month. | ||
| And he even decreased it one month because of Title 42. | ||
| Oh, he should get a Guinness World Record, shouldn't he? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I know, right? | |
| For least secure border under presidency. | ||
| Joe Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And you broke every single record, even broke Bush's record. | |
| And that was not really hard to do. | ||
| But there will be people who are like, good, more. | ||
| This is a great idea. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, the fact that they can just walk in and there's no like, you know, background check, there's nothing going on. | |
| The Republicans had their press conference the other day. | ||
| There were migrants crossing in the background. | ||
| And that's not even the first time that has happened where there's been a live press conference. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Republicans need to stop with this like lip service and like Pull the strings! | |
| Stop with the shenanigans and make it happen in capital! | ||
| But that's what they were doing when they had that Ukraine funding bill, and they were like, okay, if you want to pass this, you have to increase border security. | ||
| And Democrats were like, crazy! | ||
| Absolutely not! | ||
| Now we don't support Ukraine! | ||
| Also, we haven't talked to you about Ukraine in a while, I feel like. | ||
| Throwback. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just find it funny like the senators that are really trying to get the push the immigration and the Ukraine have the only one is like Sinema and she's only doing this because of election year for her. | |
| Then you got a guy from like what Chris where you got Connecticut and then you got Langford from Oklahoma. | ||
| And like they're really just really mostly push it for Ukraine fund. | ||
| There's nothing really about anything for the border because they're really not really | ||
| talking about it. No, I mean the border is something Republicans alone talk about, | ||
|
unidentified
|
which is crazy. They'll talk about it, but they want to attach to something. Can we stop attaching | |
| things to things? Well, right now they're using it as a tool to stop other things, right? | ||
| Because they know Democrats won't give in on it. | ||
| The Democrats see supporting a closed border or even, you know, enforcing laws that are on the books, how dare we, as a death, as the, you know, end of their career. | ||
| So Republicans are using it to stop things. | ||
| And I think you're right, they should do things to move it forward. | ||
| Unfortunately, I think they No, because you know why? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're gonna cave the same way how they did with the whole debt ceiling. | |
| We caved and we added more to the deficit than we did to try to like, you know, cut down and reduce it. | ||
| I mean, it's possible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Republicans are all lip talk and they all bark. | |
| They're like little chihuahuas. | ||
| And they think they're like pit bulls. | ||
| And it's just like, all right, stop with this lip service. | ||
| And what Chip Royce said is true. | ||
| There's nothing we could take back home and say that we accomplished anything because we haven't. | ||
| Let's jump to this story, this is big, from NBC News. | ||
| State government buildings face bomb threats for second consecutive day. | ||
| Buildings across Mississippi and Arkansas received bomb threats on Thursday, one day after similar threats forced state capital complexes across the U.S. | ||
| to evacuate. | ||
| So, yesterday it was eight states. | ||
| Nine. | ||
| Nine states? | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or Republicans? | |
| Over what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
All Republicans? | |
| No, it's a mix. | ||
| And it's not all like Swing City. | ||
| So what's going on? | ||
| You do tell, Santa Clara. | ||
| Oh, well, okay. | ||
| So as you guys know, this is one of my favorite stories right now. | ||
| So yesterday, the Capitol buildings in Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Montana, Maine, | ||
| Minnesota and Michigan, Hawaii and Hawaii all received bomb threats. | ||
| They were all evacuated. | ||
| Most of them were in the morning based on local time. | ||
| Maine was like afternoon. | ||
| Some of them were in session having come back from the winter holiday. | ||
| Some of them weren't. | ||
| So they all had these sweeps. | ||
| The majority of the ones that I could track down, the law enforcement that were releasing | ||
| information said the hoaxes were a CV email. | ||
| Typically, it seemed like it went to someone who worked at the state government building and it triggered an evacuation. | ||
| Today, there are other government buildings in multiple states. | ||
| So like Mississippi has several, not the state capitol, but other affiliated government buildings that are receiving similar threats. | ||
| The interesting one from yesterday was that Maine had received, I think it was 60 schools in Maine, mid-December had received bomb threats via email. | ||
| So this is something that's going on. | ||
| You know, it's not exactly the same thing, but it's very much like a swatting for these government buildings. | ||
| In some cases, and you're asking about patterns, so some are Republican states, some are Democrats, some are in session, some are not in session. | ||
| It's not really that there's a consistent pattern from what I can see, but it is interesting that now it's spreading throughout other states. | ||
| States that were already affected are seeing other... And you're saying this is all like swatting? | ||
| I mean, they're bond threats, so they're not sending in the SWAT team necessarily, but they are disrupting business. | ||
| Faced a bunch of these threats. | ||
| I wonder if this is related. | ||
| I wonder if whoever did... In the casinos, right? | ||
| Casinos? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| It reminds me of when the casinos had... Am I wrong in remembering the story? | ||
| They received some, like, not bomb threat, but it was like, you know, we've hijacked all your data. | ||
| Please pay us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, ransomware. | |
| No, that's way different. | ||
| Ransomware. | ||
| That's way different. | ||
| Oh, that was the hotel. | ||
| My only point is it's interesting because it's all cybercrime. | ||
| Like, none of the buildings that were affected yesterday, and as far as I know, I haven't done all of my due diligence research on the buildings that were affected today, none of them actually had explosives in them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So you're saying this is a cybercrime because they just found out, like, Russia has been hijacking our cybersecurity for the past 13 months? | |
| These were emails that were sent. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, that's what I'm trying to see where she's trying to correlate it. | |
| I'm just saying all of it is done Online, it doesn't know. | ||
| There's no clear indication. | ||
| It's not like four people walked into buildings, you know. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Emails. | |
| It theoretically could all be one person or it's a coordinated cyber led attack. | ||
| I mean, you just don't know. | ||
| And some of it is. | ||
| I think it's foreign. | ||
| Testing the response from these capitals. | ||
| I think it's foreign. | ||
| I think it's an act of war. | ||
| I should say that seems the most probable outcome because it is crippling our ability to govern. | ||
| It's shutting down our institutions. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have the weakest cybersecurity system we have out there. | |
| We pretend we have the strongest. | ||
| We have the weakest. | ||
| The fact that they can hijack the Congress website, they did it like last year in two seconds. | ||
| Well, the reality is there's no defense. | ||
| No one has any defense anywhere in the world. | ||
| Defense is hard. | ||
| Offense is super easy when it comes to cyber warfare. | ||
| There's no way to defend a system. | ||
| It's just not possible. | ||
| There are certain things you can do, but man, I love how every business will have their cyber security policy. | ||
| You know, I worked at Vice, they have this, they're like, everybody just do not click links in your emails. | ||
| And the next day, it's like, oh, we got 12, you know, 12 more people clicked the links. | ||
| We got phished again, password, it's nonstop. | ||
| No matter how many times you tell the person not to do something, they'll do it anyway. | ||
| And then they'll lie about it and say they didn't do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or they'll click on the email for the Nigerian Prince? | |
| Because they think they're going to be a billionaire? | ||
| You know what the most basic way people breach systems is? | ||
| Back in the day, it used to be that the quote-unquote hacker would drop a floppy disk in front of a bank. | ||
| And then what happens is, someone will pick it up, walk inside, stick it in the computer, and go, what's this? | ||
| Computer infected. | ||
| Then it became CDs, then it became USBs. | ||
| And USBs are the commonplace thing now. | ||
| Someone will just put a virus on a USB, they'll walk in front of the target building, and they'll just drop it. | ||
| And all they gotta do is wait, because sooner or later someone walking into that building for their job will see the USB and pick it up and stick it right in their computer on the network and infect the network. | ||
| And no matter what you do, no matter how many times you tell these people, they don't care. | ||
| Because that guy who works in the mailroom goes, I know we're not supposed to, but what do I care? | ||
| Clicks it in and goes, oh crap, it was a virus, wasn't me, and throws the stick away. | ||
| Nothing you can do about it. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| So these kind of vulnerabilities we face, Look, if they can shut down state capitals, and what are we dealing with, like 13 states in two days? | ||
| How many states is this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nine. | |
| It's definitely nine state capitals. | ||
| Today, some of them are happening in the same place. | ||
| So let's say, if there are two, I only saw two new affected states, so that would be like 10 or 11, but still. | ||
| Evacuating our state capital buildings. | ||
| Inhibiting our ability to convene and govern. | ||
| Imagine if they do that, and they will, when an actual attack happens. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And then all of a sudden our centers of power are unable to coordinate and figure out what's going on. | ||
| I get asked this all the time. | ||
| People are like, how could a civil war really happen? | ||
| Oh my. | ||
| It's just so insane how easy it is to break a machine. | ||
| I can give you a million different scenarios. | ||
| But imagine what would happen if there was a terror attack and then at the same time the foreign adversary who did it shuts down communications in the United States. | ||
| What happens when multiple law enforcement agencies show up to the same scene unable to communicate? | ||
| How many stories have there been where police show up on scene and shoot the wrong guy? | ||
| In New York, they opened fire on a perpetrator and they hit a bunch of innocent people on accident. | ||
| It is chaos. And if they can't coordinate, communicate, and there's an explosion in DC, and then one jurisdiction says, | ||
| we've lost communications, we got to figure out what's going on, and there's no way to communicate effectively, | ||
| then a bunch of random people show up and no one knows who anybody is. | ||
| Now, I do think our Security Act President of the United States has plans for things like this. | ||
| I'm just saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
On the federal level, not the state. | |
| But I'm talking about D.C. | ||
| You bring this to the border of Texas and then it's chaos. | ||
| The feds respond. | ||
| There's an attack. | ||
| The border's in chaos. | ||
| People are running and screaming. | ||
| State law enforcement shows up. | ||
| You got some plainclothes guys. | ||
| Nobody knows who's who. | ||
| There's a story going viral that's just dropped about a Trump supporter who got arrested by the feds. | ||
| What's his name? | ||
| Actually, I don't have it pulled up. | ||
| It was the guy who ran that Trump group in Georgia or whatever. | ||
| And two plainclothes guys brandish a firearm at him and he runs and he tries to flee from him. | ||
| It turns out they were FBI agents. | ||
| And everyone's saying they did it in this way because they wanted him to get shot and killed to fight back, not realizing they were law enforcement. | ||
| Plainclothes FBI show up to an attack with guns drawn. | ||
| State law enforcement doesn't know who these guys are. | ||
| They show up and they say, drop your guns, and they're all screaming at each other. | ||
| You ever see that video of the ATF guy getting detained by the cops? | ||
| Every libertarian loves this video. | ||
| It's the meme. | ||
| It's when they got turned into the meme. | ||
| He walked to the guy's house because the guy reportedly bought a shotgun and he's like, you know, give me your information, banging on the door. | ||
| The guy who lives there calls the police. | ||
| There's a strange man with a gun is banging on my door. | ||
| The cops show up and they're like, I'm the ground now. | ||
| And he goes, no, I'm, I'm law enforcement. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're like, shut your mouth on the ground now. | |
| And the, and the ATF guy is like, no, I don't have to. | ||
| And then they throw him down. | ||
| He's screaming. | ||
| Oh, I can't breathe. | ||
| I can't breathe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Don't they have like a cold word for each other? | |
| Or I just watched so much blue bloods. | ||
| No. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm just saying. | ||
| Watch the video. | ||
| They throw this ATF guy to the ground. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They pin him down. | |
| He's screaming. | ||
| He can't breathe. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| Now, this was one ATF guy and a handful of cops, so it gets resolved afterwards. | ||
| But imagine if this is federal law enforcement subverting the law on the border, Texas state level trying to enforce the law on the border, an attack happens, communications go down. | ||
| It's serious, man. | ||
| It's like that meme, it says like, uh, cops arrest undercover cops for drug buy. | ||
| That happens all the time? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| All the time, and it has happened on several occasions, it's been documented. | ||
| Your tax dollars at work. | ||
| The FBI is setting up a fake drug sale, and then the DEA is doing a fake drug buy, and then they all turn out to be like, oh, we're all law enforcement already! | ||
| And you, the taxpayer, paid for all of it! | ||
|
unidentified
|
You gotta ask yourself, why is this happening this week? | |
| I mean, I think it's the start of the new year. | ||
| What's your theory? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm just saying, like, it's just trying to, like, ploy it to show how, like, the capitals are just being... Oh, bro. | |
| I think this Saturday something happens. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe. | |
| I mean, one of the things I found interesting about this is it's not like they picked the swing states and then everyone would pin. | ||
| No, no, I'm just saying, like, they picked a bunch of state houses of various sides. It's not all of our most populated states | ||
| across the country, and not all of them were in session. And so in some ways, to me, | ||
| this is all just testing, right? This is to see what the response is. That's why I made the | ||
| comparison to the casinos, right? To a certain level, like when you do that kind of thing, and especially | ||
| if you do it to two major different casino brands, you're ultimately trying to see which one | ||
| will give you money and which one won't. | ||
| You want to know what their response is. You want to know what their security protocol is. | ||
| And effectively, obviously, in this case, no one's hurt, everything's fine. But on the other hand, | ||
| there is now an obvious way to get state capitals to close down as fast as possible. | ||
| Well, think about, like, it's like an election period and somebody just calls in or does something like this at, like, a voting... at, like, someplace where people vote, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
At a polling center, yeah. | |
| Yeah, at a polling center, right? | ||
| So there's a lot of ways where you can just merely disrupt something at a time when there's a finite amount of... | ||
| Throw too much shade on him, but if Jamal Bowman could just pull the fire alarm, this is effectively what anyone could do to stop a vote that they don't like. | ||
| In one of the states, I can't remember which one off the top of my head, their Supreme Court, the state Supreme Court was in session. | ||
| So theoretically, if you didn't want business to take place, you don't even need to be in this country to be able to say, I'm going to disrupt the day. | ||
| How is Bowman not in jail? | ||
| Well, the thing is, he was a school principal and he would never ever do anything wrong. | ||
| In all seriousness, how is it that this man committed a crime on camera? | ||
| How is it that this man committed a crime, everybody saw on video he committed the crime, he lied about committing the crime, and Republicans have done nothing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because technically it didn't really stop. | |
| I asked the one lawmaker and he told me- That has nothing to do with what I asked. | ||
| No, no! | ||
| I asked one lawmaker why he didn't get arrested and he told me- Pulling the firearms is illegal. | ||
| Right, yes. | ||
| But they said because when he pulled a firearm it didn't happen when they technically was voting. | ||
| That has nothing to do with what I said. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's what I'm saying. | |
| That's the only reason why they were able to skid that loophole. | ||
| That's what they told me. | ||
| That's not a loophole. | ||
| Right, that's wrong. | ||
| So, pulling a fire alarm falsely anywhere is illegal. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It doesn't matter if you're in Congress or in a school. | ||
| Jamal Bowman did it and lied about it. | ||
| The only reason he's not in jail is because there's a criminal- I'm just telling you the information that he told me. | ||
| Yeah, right, but that makes no sense. | ||
| That's like saying, why didn't the guy get arrested for stealing the sandwich? | ||
| Because it was Friday. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| The location of the Capitol has nothing to do with whether or not it's illegal to pull a fire alarm. | ||
| The issue is that there are criminals occupying the government and there's no good men or women willing to do their jobs. | ||
| Not a single Capitol police officer took it upon themselves to make an arrest. | ||
| Look, if a Capitol police officer has the ability to arrest someone for walking, you know, entering the building unlawfully, like breaking security, if a cop has the ability to issue a citation for driving of their own volition, if a cop has the ability to arrest you because they witnessed you obstructing a roadway, A Capitol Police officer could just walk up, arrest Bowman, and say, we saw you on camera, do it! | ||
| There's no investigation needed. | ||
| But there is not a single good man in the Capitol Police who will actually criminally take it upon himself to enforce the law. | ||
| George Santos was the only one who introduced expulsion papers for Joe Bowman. | ||
| What is this reality we live in where In order for a crime to be, for a law to be enforced, you require some kind of act of Congress. | ||
| Yo, if a cop witnesses someone falsely pull a fire alarm, he will arrest that person, no question anywhere. | ||
| Jamal Bowman did it. | ||
| A single capital officer nowhere just said, I'm gonna arrest the guy. | ||
| I haven't looked at it a couple weeks, but he did get some kind of plea deal where he's on probation, he has to go to court in three months. | ||
| Like, there was something that he got cited. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fair point, fair point. | |
| You gotta slap on the wrist. | ||
| But that was the thing. | ||
| He pled to this plea, it came out, whatever else. | ||
| He released a statement being like, I basically did nothing wrong, but of course I respect whatever. | ||
| And then the evidence came out. | ||
| And then the evidence came out that it wasn't just that he pulled the fire alarm, it was that he removed the sign saying, don't use this door or whatever, and then pulled the fire alarm. | ||
| And that was sort of where I wanted more furor from the Republicans. | ||
| But again, the Republican that introduced them has now been expelled from Congress. | ||
| It's kind of crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It doesn't really make sense. | |
| But again, like at a certain point, there's the lack of follow through. | ||
| Like you're kind of alluding to this with the border stuff. | ||
| Like the Republicans need to see things through to the end. | ||
| And I just don't know that that's what they're going to do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They need to stop barking and start biting. | |
| Yeah, now it's game time to start being like Trump. | ||
| If you really want to back your action, you've been barking. | ||
| We had the most embarrassing Republican-led House in Congress to have the least amount of bills passed last year. | ||
| You know how many times that's going to be used against Republicans this year for the House seats? | ||
| And you're saying that they should have done more stuff? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because I don't feel like... They didn't pass a lot of bills, first of all. | |
| Is that necessarily awful? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, it looks bad. | |
| The headlines look bad. | ||
| The headline looks bad, but in effect, do we want the government to just be continuously passing tons and tons of bills more than the year before? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, the only bills they passed was changing the post office name and adding a new street. | |
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| They're the least productive Congress in the past couple decades. | ||
| That's actually a good thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, but I'm saying, they can't say that, like, we've done this, we've done this, we've done this. | |
| They can't point to the record. | ||
| They can't point to it. | ||
| We did nothing! | ||
| We don't want them to pass bills, we want them to pass, like, criminal referrals. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, but I'm saying, like, you can't say, like, we did this, we passed the most border enhanced security bill ever, we've done this, we've helped pass Ukraine aid, we've helped pass Israel aid. | |
| Like, you look at all the Republicans, they made all these videos for, like, Christmas. | ||
| They passed it in the House, but it's not going to go to the Senate. | ||
| Stop taking credit for something that didn't happen. | ||
| But the thing is, like, it's not that I don't think... I think they should be productive. | ||
| I think there are certain things that they should prioritize. | ||
| Like I said, with the border, it seems like they're using it to stop Democrats from getting more funding out of the country. | ||
| And also, they know that ultimately everything will fail in the Senate. | ||
| I mean, it's a weirdly unproductive time because we're sort of staring down the barrel of another presidential election. | ||
| Republicans only have control of the House by a very slim majority. | ||
| I mean, when, what's his name, Bill Johnson, the guy from Ohio who just announced he's retiring in like three weeks, when he leaves, there's only 219 Republicans to 213 Democrats. | ||
| So there's a certain level of like, Yes, I would like them to do more. | ||
| On the other hand, I don't actually believe this could be a highly productive time anyway. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But just don't make it seem like it's semantics that you actually did something when you actually did nothing. | |
| You know, back up your claims that you've done stuff. | ||
| Yeah, we need the ones that are like, limited government. | ||
| Look, we did nothing. | ||
| Hooray! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'd rather be like me. | |
| We passed no aid bills. | ||
| How about that? | ||
| But I think there will be Republicans that are like, look, I successfully blocked the Ukraine, additional Ukraine aid. | ||
| That is doing something. | ||
| By doing nothing, you've done something. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's, I don't want to be something as nothing. | ||
| I don't just want like the goal to be like Congress has to say we passed more bills than last year but the problem is with the average American it looks so bad. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If you're a political guy like us like we're so into this stuff like we we cheer this on but then you ask like the regular average Joe in America they're gonna be like we pay their salary and they did nothing? | |
| Just the semantics look bad. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| I don't know if all Americans would feel that way, though. | ||
| I mean, I think there is enough distrust of government because, like, we want to look back at COVID when they passed all kinds of things and said all kinds of crazy stuff. | ||
| Like, I think there is a growing distrust of the federal government where people would say, like, maybe we don't want a lot of stuff happening. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But if you tell an average American, like, hey, this was the least productive Congress, just leave it like that. | |
| That's where the... Maybe. | ||
| That's how. | ||
| You just have to twist one word, and then it changes everything. | ||
| The only productivity you want is... And Republicans have the worst communications. | ||
| ...law, uh, criminal referrals, investigations, and subpoenas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But where's it leading to? | |
| Well, they're not doing it. | ||
| It won't matter anyways. | ||
| We're coming up at a time eventually where nothing will matter unless either party has a super majority because everybody's voting on party lines so often now anyways. | ||
| Hyperpolarization in this country. | ||
| There's a chart going viral on Twitter showing political ideology by profession. | ||
| And in the 10 years, it's just, there's no middle anymore. | ||
| It's gone. | ||
| And I've been saying this for a while. | ||
| There's no middle anymore. | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
| You're left or you're right. | ||
| And Gen Z is proving this. | ||
| That's what I was saying earlier in the show. | ||
| Gen Z is also drifting apart from itself. | ||
| There is a disappearing moderate class in this country. | ||
| It's gone already. | ||
| The data shows it's gone. | ||
| But remember the voting statistics which said like women said the biggest red flag is if the guy they might date supports Trump or Republicans and the men said like the biggest red flag is if she's a communist? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey listen, my biggest red flag is if I'm the dating guy but he says he's a liberal or he has he-she-they-we-or-what-what-when-where-why. | |
| But you know what I realize is really funny is that, you know, growing up the trope was that men are sex obsessed. | ||
| And the meme is, you know, men only want one thing, it's disgusting. | ||
| And then you start to realize when you watch comedy videos, it's actually totally the other way around. | ||
| Guys are object oriented and totally interested in sports, numbers. | ||
| They actually don't talk all that much about women. | ||
| And women talk about nothing but guys. | ||
| Men have a lot of unique hobbies that end up binding them together with their friends. | ||
| So I look at these comedy videos and I follow a bunch of comedians on Instagram. | ||
| I get a ton of comedy videos. | ||
| 90% of the clips that come from a guy will be about an issue. | ||
| It could be about anything. | ||
| With Dave Chappelle, look at his jokes. | ||
| He's joking about Madison Cawthorn, handicapped. | ||
| He's talking about Andy Kaufman and Jim Carrey, telling life stories. | ||
| All of these female comedians, the joke is, they're always just talking about their vaginas. | ||
| And so, I mean, that's a crass way of putting it. | ||
| But every single female comedian, when I'm on Instagram and I hit refresh, and I'm seeing all these comedians, if there's a female comedian, I know that if I hit it, she's going to be talking about dating a guy. | ||
| I know if it's a guy, it could be anything. | ||
| And the reason I bring that up is because as we're looking at the bifurcation of politics between men and women, I believe it's going to result in this country moving conservative for the reason of Women are more subject-oriented and more time-constrained in having a partner. | ||
| Men are not. | ||
| So if a guy says, I don't like commies, he just won't date anybody. | ||
| But around 30 to 35, when women start getting, you know, the biological clock is ticking and they want to have kids, they have to start trying to find a guy. | ||
| But if guys are skewing to the right, those women will have to adapt themselves to the guy, not the other way around. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay, so you ever heard of the book, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| One of my favorite points in that book was, the psychologist John Gray points out, that when men go to lunch, they're typically going to talk about a specific problem, they're like, we have a, there is a purpose to it, right? | ||
| They're meeting, it's something, there's something to do. | ||
| Women go, and they just sort of gather a lot of information, right? | ||
| So one of the reasons, like, the stereotypes, like, girls can be on the phone with their friends for hours and hours, because They're wired to do different things, and I think both are valuable, but they play out very differently in society. | ||
| Well, look at A Family Guy is the joke, where Peter Griffin gets injected with the gay gene as part of a clinical trial, and then he calls, I think he calls Quagmire, and he's like, hey Glenn, and Glenn's like, yeah. | ||
| What you doing? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| You called me! | ||
| And that just shows you, like, the joke of the difference between the feminine approach to calling someone versus the guy. | ||
| It's like, you called me, what do you want? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But it's just totally different. | ||
| And I think that, you know, these things could be good. | ||
| The problem is that feminism has really made it so that women are trying to compete with men in male spheres. | ||
| They don't just do things that are natural to women and like them. | ||
| It sort of makes it so, like, the best female comedians that I know actually have some really interesting social observations, right? | ||
| Like, when Ali Wong, who does talk about her vagina a lot, would talk about trying to trap her Harvard-educated husband, or Harvard Business School husband, it was really funny, right? | ||
| Because the way women talk about, like, the way they approach dating when it's not necessarily about their sexual approach to dating can be really nuanced, can be really interesting, because it gives you an insight into something you may not know. | ||
| It's the same thing with female comedians. | ||
| I don't watch female comedians anymore. | ||
| I don't know why you would. | ||
| Because, dude, she's going to be talking about a guy she dated. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I'm just like... You can ask a random girl on the street and she'll tell you the same thing that comedian just said. | |
| But it's totally fine if this is what women find funny, hearing another woman talk about her boyfriend. | ||
| For me, I'm like... You know, that's why we were talking on the Members Only show about this one female comedian who made a joke about homelessness, and I'm like, that was a really, really good joke. | ||
| But it's just like, yeah, we talked about this. | ||
| But I swear, I'm on Instagram, and I'm going through it, and I'll hit a guy's joke, and he'll be like... | ||
| You know, so my car broke down or something like that, and you're like, oh wow, what happened to your car? | ||
| And I'll be telling a story like I was going to the supermarket and this guy was trying to buy this Coca-Cola, right? | ||
| And I'm like, oh, what's this story about buying a Coca-Cola, something that happened? | ||
| And then I click the woman and she's like, so my boyfriend, here's the trick, my boyfriend, and I'm like, okay. | ||
| Well, I don't know, it's just unrelatable to me. | ||
| And that's fine, you're allowed to like these things. | ||
| But anyway, aside from all of that, no more whinging about female comedians, the point is... | ||
| What I've started to see with these social trends, when we've learned this from Instagram, women care substantially more about how you fit in socially than men do. | ||
| I think we've known this for a long time. | ||
| What this means is, a guy will be 35, sitting there like, yeah, you know what? | ||
| I want to vote for Trump. | ||
| These women don't like it. | ||
| Whatever, I guess. | ||
| And these women are going to be going, I'm 35 and I need to find a husband, but all of these guys are into Trump. | ||
| What do I do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah but then when you find all these guys that vote for Trump and then they find a girl that votes for Trump, they're scared shitless what to do next. | |
| I think that's somewhat true. | ||
| I don't agree with that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm speaking from experience. | |
| Right, that sounds like an anecdotal thing, not a data thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm trying to say like, no, I'm just trying to say like an alpha and an alpha came together. | |
| See, I think it's that men will tack more conservative, there will be more men who are openly outspoken about what they believe, but because women are socially observant and that's what they're doing, there will be generations of women after that who move more conservative to keep up, right? | ||
| Because ultimately what you're saying is true. | ||
| What I'm saying is the pressure is on women, not men. | ||
| So you're going to have women who are not alphas. | ||
| They're going to be saying something like, guy, I will say whatever you want me to say, please. | ||
| I don't have a lot of time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And there's going to be a guy like, bro, I can have... So she's willing to sell out for less than what she believes in? | |
| She probably doesn't believe in anything. | ||
| She's influenced by social media to a great degree to just say Joe Biden, because it's all the people on social media are saying. | ||
| But then when it actually comes down to it, she's going to say, I don't care. | ||
| I want to have a family. | ||
| I think it really depends on her social exposure, right? | ||
| Because if she's largely socializing with women, like maybe she does want to marry a man, but ultimately she works in a female-dominated industry, she hangs out with all of her female friends, and all of her female friends naturally tack left, they're all voting Democrat, she is likely to hold on to police. | ||
| But as soon as you put women into more balanced or social environments where there are more men, I think that changes really quickly. | ||
| And I don't necessarily think it's because of dating, I think it's because of social compliance, which is higher among women. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But there's a lot of liberal women that they're in their late 30s, early 40s, and they're out there bragging about being a feminist and being a liberal. | |
| Yeah, they don't care. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And they're single. | |
| That's the norm. | ||
| And they have a cat. | ||
| And they don't have kids. | ||
| And I'm like, why is your greatest accomplishment that you don't have kids? | ||
| So that's breaking down now because you've got these articles from, say, Business Insider, where this woman says, I was lied to by feminism. | ||
| And she said she wants to go back to all her feminist college professors and says, when was this supposed to happen? | ||
| You lied to me. | ||
| Because now she's realizing none of it made her happy at all. | ||
| And it was a trick. | ||

| Head over to TimCast.com, click join us to become a member. | ||
| Why? | ||
| We got tickets to the Iowa Caucus event. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| On the 15th of this month when the Iowa Caucus happens, we will have a live show. | ||
| And you can be sitting in those chairs, and we'll probably even throw some questions to the audience, that is the plan. | ||
| We'll see how it plays out. | ||
| But the only way to buy tickets is to be a member, and the link is available on the front page of TimCast.com. | ||
| We're doing this mostly, it's partially for a vetting reason, and it's also because members get first priority, so as soon as the link went up, the members got access to it. | ||
| If you're not a member, you gotta become one. | ||
| But also, we're gonna have that uncensored members-only show at 10pm, where you can hang out with us behind the scenes, where we say things that are not so family-friendly. | ||
| And that'll be up at TimCast.com. | ||
| So smash that like button, all that good stuff. | ||
| Let's read your superchats. | ||
| User Main says, Hi, join the Discord. | ||
| Yes, we have a Discord server. | ||
| If you go to TimCast.com and become a member, you can get instructions on how to join the Discord server. | ||
| And what does that mean? | ||
| It is an active 24-7 chat room with like-minded individuals who watch the show and run their own chat shows, pre-shows, after-shows, guests, and everything. | ||
| It is a vibrant community of people who are discussing all these ideas. | ||
| It's good fun. | ||
| You should definitely join. | ||
| I really like the Discord. | ||
| They're always doing stuff. | ||
| And then over Thanksgiving they were like, hey, you want to come talk to us? | ||
| And they very kindly guided me through how to use it. | ||
| Was that fun? | ||
| I remember because you were on our show that one time and they were like, we're going to get you to do it. | ||
| And sometimes you're like, I don't know if I want to sign up for all this. | ||
| Yeah, I joined Discord, got immediately overwhelmed by the interface, backed right out. | ||
| Technology, no thank you. | ||
| But Raymond G. Stanley Jr. | ||
| was like, hey, I'll explain to you what to do. | ||
| Alright, RJ McDougalime says, Tim, how can I work for your new skatepark? | ||
| I ran one that hosted many comps, jams, and events. | ||
| I can be a helpful addition. | ||
| Who can I reach out to? | ||
| It is a private park, and there will not be skatepark people working there because there's not going to be anybody showing up to, like, come in and check in. | ||
| It's going to be a, I say semi-private because we will invite some people sometimes, but that just basically means it's private. | ||
| But we're gonna do a bunch of really cool stuff. | ||
| We are planning a party for the official completion of the skate park. | ||
| The good news is the structure of the new studio, it's done. | ||
| The rooms are done, the green room is done, the kitchen is there, the bathrooms are all there. | ||
| We are really excited. | ||
| And it may be mid-February when we are officially inside. | ||
| So, the new TimCast IRL studio is being built in two weeks. | ||
| And, uh, I don't know how long it'll take, but I can't imagine it'll take that long. | ||
| It'll be a couple days. | ||
| And if that's the case, February 1st, we might be in the brand new studio. | ||
| It's a much bigger room. | ||
| It'll be really, really cool, really fun. | ||
| And we're adding a bunch of new cool, crazy features! | ||
| One of the features we're adding is called a delay button. | ||
| Do you guys know what a delay button does? | ||
| So, let's just say, for instance, we're talking about Epstein, and someone on the show just can't hold it in any longer, and they scream out of the top of their lungs how much they want to commit an act of violence. | ||
| When that happens, we press the button, that portion drops, and it never goes live. | ||
| You see, all big networks already have that. | ||
| Every network has that. | ||
| So if you're watching cable sometimes, they'll be doing a live interview and they'll be like, joining us live to talk about this issue is John Smith. | ||
| And then they'll be talking and then all of a sudden it'll just jump to the host being like, sorry about that everybody, but moving on. | ||
| And you're like, wait, what just happened? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or they'll say like the call dropped, right? | |
| No, they'll actually... I mean like the connection dropped. | ||
| No, they don't, no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When they hit... No, I'm saying they used it as an excuse. | |
| No. | ||
| They will actually just say, we had to release the guest because of the language they used. | ||
| We apologize to people who are listening. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They actually admit it? | |
| Yeah, when the calls drop the calls drop sometimes the calls drop and we roll our eyes like I can't remember it | ||
| was like Um, I think it was what's-his-face Cuomo has that famous | ||
| viral video where he's talking to someone They start bringing up some sensitive issue and then all | ||
| sudden it does that boo. He's like, oh geez and that really fake | ||
| But no, no My point is, quite literally, networks all have these delay buttons, and then they'll say, sorry about that, everybody. | ||
| It'll just, mid-conversation, then it'll just jump to those going, sorry about that, everybody, that language is not acceptable on this network. | ||
| Moving on to the next story. | ||
| Is the new studio gonna have money guns that shoot at us doing superchats? | ||
| No, only the pop culture. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If you're gonna have a money gun, you have to have neon lights. | |
| We do have neon lights. | ||
| I mean, we're gonna have to add, like, a smoke machine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A smoke machine, yeah. | |
| The next thing we're adding is a stripper pole. | ||
| That is not happening. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can we make it rain? | |
| We will charge far more for that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Far more. | |
| Hey, you guys should release a calendar. | ||
| Do not invoke that right now. | ||
| Can somebody please tell me about this calendar? | ||
| No, we can't. | ||
| I'm not here to rot my brains out. | ||
| Surge is fired. | ||
| All right, all right. | ||
| We're gonna keep going. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I am just sick. | |
| Okay, all right. | ||
| Let's read some more. | ||
| All right, Hans Gruber says the missing name is Joe Biden. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Everybody wants to say Joe Biden, but it's not the missing name. | ||
| Ethan Helm says, have you seen Vivek's interview on NBC News as well as his response to condemning white supremacy? | ||
| Strong start to 2024. | ||
| He's looking better by the day. | ||
| Vivek Ramaswamy was asked to condemn white supremacy, and he gave this excellent response about, I'm not going to bend the knee to your religion. | ||
| I condemn all forms of racial discrimination. | ||
| But what you're asking is, you know, he basically says, you're playing a game of trying to play this gotcha game. | ||
| I'm not going to play. | ||
| I'm not going to bend the knee to your religion. | ||
| I'm not asking you to bend the knee to mine. | ||
| But I know you're going to run this anyway. | ||
| We know exactly what you're going to say. | ||
| You're going to say Vivek refuses to condemn And it's her fault that she's racist. | ||
| She's asking the minority candidate to condemn white supremacy? | ||
| Like, that's a bad look, team. | ||
| And then, of course, what did the Washington Post writer do? | ||
| Tweeted out, when asked, Vekramaswamy refused to condemn white supremacy. | ||
| Because these people are, well, look, it's not her fault she's developmentally disabled. | ||
| It is her fault she's evil. | ||
| And it's her fault that she's racist. | ||
| She's asking the minority candidate to condemn white supremacy. | ||
| Like, that's a bad look, team. | ||
| I know, is white lady doing it too? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All right, Mr. Knickers Gaming says, finally joined the members' Discord last night, | ||
| and I'm upset that I didn't join it sooner. | ||
| It was a blast and stayed up way too late. | ||
| I'm currently running on three hours of sleep in the past 48 hours. | ||
| You see, this is the challenge. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's a story of my life. | |
| When you sign up at TimCast.com and join the discord, you can never leave because once you start arguing with someone online, you can't stop. | ||
| But we're not a cult, you're free to go anytime. | ||
| Well, we're not a cult, it's just- That's not true, I get in the discord sometimes and I argue with people and then I just leave. | ||
| I just, boom, I'm a phantom. | ||
| I'm out of there. | ||
| You're wrong! | ||
| And then I'm just gone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You have like one zinger, come back and then you're out. | |
| Gone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're ghosting, huh? | |
| Yeah, they're gone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ghosting. | |
| So we have a whole bunch of superchats of people giving potential names, but uh, you know, Sheldon Adelson is a name, Alejandro Mayorkas, 17 letters. | ||
| 17 is not what we said. | ||
| Jessica messaged me Stephen Kaufman, but one, and I guess it's on Twitter. | ||
| Christopher Wray. | ||
| He was acting chief counsel for the U.S. | ||
| Department of Homeland Security. | ||
| But there was two different spellings of it, one with two N's and one without, so I don't really know what. | ||
| You can't just name a person you don't like who's got 15 letters in their name. | ||
| Yes, you can. | ||
| You absolutely can. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, you can. | |
| That is your right. | ||
| Can somebody please make this into a Wordle game? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| What was his name from the National Security? | ||
| Sullivan? | ||
| Jake Sullivan? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I don't think that's 15 letters. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's what I'm trying to think in my head. | |
| Make it a wordle game with the court and the court, and it's like, if we figure it out, you have to, the name is really... If we get the letter, you have to let us know! | ||
| You guys agreed to make this fun! | ||
| Alright, Thomas Wright says, what happened to yesterday's show? | ||
| Why isn't it at least on Rumble? | ||
| And it's fascinating because he said this at 826, and it is on Rumble! | ||
| The show from last night is in full on Rumble. | ||
| Check again. | ||
| And it's also on all podcast platforms. | ||
| I tweeted this out as well. | ||
| But I will tell you the challenge, my friends. | ||
| You know, a lot of people will say like, I'll say something and I'll say, Tim said that yesterday. | ||
| But what the people who say that don't realize, the average person doesn't watch every single show | ||
| and every single clip. | ||
| And most people, this is the funny thing, I'll tweet out, we released a song. | ||
| I tweeted this out like the other day, like our fourth song hit Billboard and they went, I didn't know you made music. | ||
| And I'm like, it's kind of wild that we had four out of five songs chart on Billboard, which is like most bands don't even get one song on Billboard charts. | ||
| Big names do, big names do. | ||
| And then they're like, I didn't even know you did that. | ||
| And I'm like, Every week we do a release, we do this long promo, and there are people who had no idea we made music. | ||
| So how about that? | ||
| So when the show goes down, and I tweet out three times, the show will be free and available on all podcast platforms. | ||
| Find it here. | ||
| When we say we're going to put it up on Rumble and all these things, people still go, where's the show and what happened? | ||
| Because there's no way for us to inform everyone all at the same moment. | ||
| It's not possible. | ||
| It's why people get mad when you have to constantly tell people to, when you mentioned like, subscribe, all these things because they have to hear it multiple times because not everybody's paying attention exactly at that moment. | ||
| Other people are doing other things. | ||
| You have to constantly use repetition to really get it across. | ||
| And it still doesn't connect. | ||
| Not always. | ||
| What a guy says. | ||
| ChetGPT says, Elizabeth Warren. | ||
| She certainly has the power to stall a foil. | ||
| Nine and six. | ||
| I want to know who the other prince was. | ||
| Like, that one just was so random. | ||
| As long as it's not the artist formerly known as Prince. | ||
| Elizabeth Warren is 15 letters. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But I don't see a reason why she would be on the list. | ||
| I think it has to be, like... Probably gonna be a dude. | ||
| We gotta cross-reference it with people that were, like, known to have an affiliation, right? | ||
| Stephen Bachmeier says they mentioned redacting because of security risks in Home Country of People, which is why some people think the prince is from SA, Saudi Arabia. | ||
| These drops are not legally damning, they are culturally and morally damning. | ||
| That is correct, absolutely. | ||
| And it may be a prince. | ||
| The other prince. | ||
| The other prince. | ||
| That's so intriguing to me! | ||
| Also, Prince Andrew must be livid right now that everyone is willing to name him, but they're not willing to name the other one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, you gotta blame your mommy for, like, dropping you out of the whole royal family for being able to open that kind of worms. | |
| Let's grab some more Super Chats. | ||
| There's a whole lot of names. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| What do we have here? | ||
| Uh, more names, more names, more names, another name. | ||
| I think we got like 15 superchats saying Christopher Wray. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Yeah, there's a lot of them. | ||
| Like 15, right? | ||
| Samuel Brucker says, what if instead of a famous person, it's an unknown person whose very existence is evidence of something much worse than all of the grape? | ||
| Fair point! | ||
| It might be a name that as soon as people figure out, a name you've never heard of, and you look at it and say, who's that? | ||
| And you Google search, you go, oh my stars and garters. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The missing link. | |
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Perhaps, perhaps. | ||
| It could be anything. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It could be anything. | |
| Perhaps indeed. | ||
| Oh, another person said Christopher Wray. | ||
| Yeah, again, like 15 of those. | ||
| All right, BVIP says Alan Dershowitz claimed the allegations of a teenager being forced into sex with him was categorically false. | ||
| I hear this phrase a lot. | ||
| Is this a diversion or hmm? | ||
| Yeah, I don't believe Dershowitz. | ||
| You know, he denied it. | ||
| It is what it is. | ||
| I don't believe him. | ||
| I don't know how you're the lawyer of this guy not aware of what's going on. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| There are a lot of lawyers out there. | ||
| They know their clients are guilty, but they're going to provide the best defense they can. | ||
| They're going to be like, yes, but so you did punch that man. | ||
| But how did they find out you did? | ||
| The video they got was taken from your camera without a warrant. | ||
| That's fruit from the poison tree. | ||
| And we're going to get that thrown out and the case will be dismissed. | ||
| But everybody knows you did it. | ||
| I'm pretty sure Dershowitz was aware of what was going on. | ||
| I mean, in my opinion. | ||
| All right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was a different time. | |
| Cam Pete says, just like to say I was the first in with Ray. | ||
| Congratulations, Cam Pete. | ||
| The name, I don't, you know, I don't know. | ||
| We don't know who it is. | ||
| We don't know who it is. | ||
| Richard Klein says it's safe to assume it's not a conservative that's redacted. | ||
| It could be a foreign leader of a state that's being protected. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Do you think we'll ever find out who it is? | ||
| No. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I mean, not right now. | |
| Maybe like another two years. | ||
| Two years. | ||
| But what I should say is I believe there is a possibility we get the Epstein list. | ||
| It just means we have to win the culture war. | ||
| Is that our October surprise? | ||
| The October surprise is someone coming out and claiming Donald Trump did the whole thing and they create an org chart with Trump above Epstein. | ||
| But that's for the Democrats. | ||
| But, you know, if Trump wins, I do think there's a possibility that that information comes out. | ||
| So if you want to know who's on that list, look, what did we learn from the first release? | ||
| Donald Trump was not there. | ||
| He had not met these women. | ||
| He wasn't around. | ||
| He didn't sleep with any of these women. | ||
| It's very strong evidence for Trump that he was involved in any of this stuff. | ||
| It's good, considering he was in the proximity of these people on the left. | ||
| It's trying to claim he was involved by showing videos of him, like, at a party with Epstein. | ||
| And I'm like, yeah. | ||
| Epstein went to parties. | ||
| Epstein famously moved in elite social circles. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That doesn't mean every single person involved did something wrong. | ||
| Fair point. | ||
| I just don't trust Bill Clinton, you know what I mean? | ||
| Sorry, he likes him young. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How young is too young? | |
| That's the question. | ||
| Epstein young is too young. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, I meant Bill Clinton. | |
| It's kind of creepy when Epstein is known for doing what he does and then he says the word young because you assume it means younger than he's already involved in. | ||
| I know, it's terrifying. | ||
| Disgusting. | ||
| There are demons out there, man. | ||
| There are demons. | ||
| Blue de Goyer says it's a Saudi prince. | ||
| Remember, there was a redacted name because of being from a conservative country. | ||
| Okay, but we have to remember, there's the redacted name, there's some other names, and then it says, the other prince. | ||
| So... Which is not the redacted name. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And it can't be the prince. | |
| They're separate things. | ||
| Like, someone on there was guessing, like, oh, this prince's name fits the number of syllables, but they are two separate mysterious people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the Saudi prince has, like, five names, so they would have to put his whole name out there. | |
| I mean, but theoretically, that's a transcript, so they wouldn't say, like, all of the names. | ||
| They might just refer it by, like, the common name he's known. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They'll name, like, prince, or they'll probably put his MBS, whatever. | |
| Who knows? | ||
| That's probably, like, over, like, 25 letters. | ||
| Dark World says, have your children skip a meal or two, or have your grandchildren not eat for a week. | ||
| Pick your poison. | ||
| I'm not condemning people who do a deal with the devil to save their kids. | ||
| I'm making the point that when the devil offers you the deal, it's not going to be for a luxury car, it's going to be to feed your children. | ||
| It will be the hardest decision you have to make. | ||
| And I think it's fair to say, perhaps the majority of men would sell their soul to the devil. | ||
| Knowing they would condemn themselves for eternity if it meant their kids got to eat. | ||
| I'm neither condemning nor condoning. | ||
| I'm pointing it out. | ||
| If that's who you are and you take issue with that statement, perhaps you should reflect on your morals. | ||
| Because some people might actually suggest it is noble to sacrifice your eternal soul to save your children. | ||
| I don't think working in service of the devil figuratively or literally is a good thing. | ||
| I think it condemns your children, but sure. | ||
| When you say have your kids skip a meal or have your grandchildren not eat for a week, you pick your poison. | ||
| Yeah, you gotta understand what we're talking about is exponential returns. | ||
| If today you sell out your country so your kids can have a full belly tomorrow, it means your grandkids will not have anything. | ||
| It means your grandkids will live in the pot and eat the bugs. | ||
| But if that's worth Selling your soul to the devil? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I mean, think about it. | ||
| The idea would be that you are offered the Faustian deal, or the deal with the devil. | ||
| We will keep your children fed, but serve evil. | ||
| You say, sounds good to me. | ||
| It's better than my child starving. | ||
| What you're actually doing is making sure that your child grows up in despair and desolation and your grandkids are slaves living in pods and eating bugs. | ||
| Or your kids can go hungry today and you can fight the hardest fight you've ever fought and then maybe in 50 years your grandchildren will live in prosperity and thank you for your sacrifice. | ||
| A society grows great when men plant trees whose shade they know they will never sleep beneath. | ||
| So, you know, it's whatever. | ||
| Not condemning or condoning. | ||
| What do we got here? | ||
| Neglectful Sausage says, Native Americans wanting to stop mass migration to their territory was racist. | ||
| They should have welcomed the Xenos bulldozing their culture. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| Hold on there a minute. | ||
| I think we've solved the entire thing there, sir. | ||
| All of these non-citizens who are coming in, we just place them on the Native American reservations and there we go. | ||
| The Native Americans will be glad to see the migration culturally enriching their reservations. | ||
| The left will agree that it's not colonization. | ||
| Migration's a net benefit for everybody. | ||
| And these migrants who are coming in will require goods and services. | ||
| So what will happen is businesses will start popping up on the reservations. | ||
| The casinos that some of these reservations have will flourish. | ||
| And for those that don't, you'll see Walmarts popping up in no time, because obviously these migrants want jobs and also want to buy products. | ||
| It will boost the economy. | ||
| And in fact, many of these deeply impoverished reservations could use an influx of a new population. | ||
| I think everyone's going to recognize it's a win-win, right? | ||
| Right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
How many people are saying Merrick Garland? | |
| A lot of people are saying Merrick Garland. | ||
| But I mean, just because you don't like a guy doesn't mean his name fits. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't think the name's fit. | |
| It's hard to know. | ||
| What do we got? | ||
| Hammer11 says, unfortunately, if Trump gets into office, he is going to have to round up all the illegal immigrants. | ||
| It's going to look like the Nazis hunting Jews in the 1940s. | ||
| It's exactly what I said, I think, two days ago on this show. | ||
| And I think many other people have alluded to already. | ||
| Dreams of a Strange Man says, did anyone say Mark Zuckerberg with the space between his names? | ||
| That's 15. | ||
| Excuse me. | ||
| Not national security related, but I don't know. | ||
| I mean, wealth related. | ||
| Yeah, I have this whole thing where, like, I think Mark Zuckerberg is slightly younger than most of the people who are coming up. | ||
| Like, you have to remember, there was a chance that he we know that he's big and powerful now. | ||
| But when this was all happening, was he the person of influence that would have been courted by someone by Epstein? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And this was 2011, right? | |
| So Facebook was, like, already four years in? | ||
| No, those documents are 2016. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, 2016. | |
| Okay. | ||
| And the redaction is today. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, and the email was 2011. | |
| But the release is now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| No, no, I'm saying that I got confused with the email and then that one. | ||
| The question is, who exists today to prevent their name from being released? | ||
| Because the documents were released now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Alright, Josiah Everdeen says, Hey Tim, I've been listening for a couple years now. | ||
| Huge fan. | ||
| Listen to your daily segments while working. | ||
| I'm curious, what do you mean when you say, I think something will happen this Saturday? | ||
| Thanks. | ||
| It's January 6th. | ||
| Saturday is January 6th. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The day that lives in infamy, that's what they say. | |
| Well, we got swatted on January 6th in 2022, I think it was. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh yeah. | |
| Yeah, so like, it's 2024! | ||
| January 6th! | ||
| Maybe we'll just get a lot of snow and everything's gonna be- No, it's gonna rain. | ||
| It's gonna rain! | ||
| Yeah, I just checked, they're saying that the high is gonna be 53 degrees and we're not gonna get snow, we're gonna get rain. | ||
| We were supposed to get 10 inches of snow! | ||
| Not anymore. | ||
| I predicted this- Wait, that's so upsetting. | ||
| Because we were warned like a few months ago there was gonna be a snowstorm and then it rained for three days. | ||
| And so, you know, Allison really wants it to snow so we can go snowboarding and stuff. | ||
| And then we get this warning of a nor'easter and 12 inches of snow. | ||
| And then I said, you know what's going to happen? | ||
| It's going to be a few days out and they're going to say it's going to rain. | ||
| Sure enough, I checked again and it said a high of 53 degrees and rain. | ||
| Tim's a witch. | ||
| He controls the weather. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In New York, it says a mix of snow, rain and snow, highs, mid 30s, lows, watching a potential winter storm. | |
| Alright. | ||
| Tootsnalorum says men and women are not equal. | ||
| Men can make long-term decisions beneficial to society. | ||
| Women cannot. | ||
| Men will hold each other accountable for wrongs. | ||
| Women will give each other attention and reasons for why they were right when wrong. | ||
| Feminism and women's rights were wrong. | ||
| I completely disagree with you, sir. | ||
| I appreciate the super chat, but I can tell you why you're wrong. | ||
| Because there are law enforcement officers facilitating the invasion on the southern border with smiles on their faces because they would rather their kid eats today, and the United States burn, and your families burn, and your culture and community burn. | ||
| These men don't care about what is wrong. | ||
| They care about what protects their family. | ||
| So long as those men exist, you can't tell me that men can make long-term decisions beneficial to society. | ||
| Sure, they can also make decisions of personal benefit because they care more about their kids than you and what this feature has for their kids. | ||
| I mean, that's the grand mistake. | ||
| Short-term gains for long-term losses is what it is. | ||
| My kid will eat a cheeseburger today, but then will eat the bugs and live in the pod in 10 years. | ||
| That's what they're building. | ||
| I think there are all kinds of women that make good choices for society too. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| They are more social, they're different, but generalizing them too much is a mistake. | ||
| Yeah, there are good women and there are bad guys. | ||
| Like how many male feminists are out there? | ||
| You can't tell me that men are capable of making these decisions when half of millennials are, like 45% of millennial men are identified as male feminists or whatever. | ||
| These guys can't make good decisions because even women call them creepy. | ||
| Is that a real number? | ||
| Is that a real number? 45%? | ||
| I think it's wrong. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think it's wrong. | |
| That's disturbing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Going back to the border thing, do you think the whipping story really haunted them? | |
| Is there a reason why they're not being agents like they used to be? | ||
| The thing about that story, so it was when there were migrants from Haitian- 43%. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Who were gathering under a bridge and moving across. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's really creepy. | |
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| And no one was actually whipped, they were just- No, I know, I know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. | |
| We got a correction, we got a correction here. | ||
| 52% of millennial men identify as male feminists. | ||
| Gross. | ||
| And we wonder why the birth rates are collapsing. | ||
| Those border agents did nothing wrong, but they were so reprimanded like if they did something so highly... I think, yeah, I mean, that was one of the reasons that Alejandro Mayorkas is being accused of dereliction of duty, which is that he went and told Congress, yes, that was awful, and they did these things, and it wasn't even true, right? | ||
| He condemned his own agents. | ||
| I think the fear is a big part of it, right? | ||
| There are people who want to lose their jobs, but also there are people who just don't want to be canceled for theoretically being an evil law enforcement officer doing something they shouldn't. | ||
| And when you know the ultimate authority is contradicting itself, that we have these border laws on the books, but that the federal government is not going to back you up if you are in your professional capacity enforcing them, then your hands are really tied. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What are you supposed to be Those ages were like, they didn't get paid for like 10, 12, almost a year. | |
| And maybe they should go work for a state border agency at this point. | ||
| Tom Pant says, sometimes the delay button doesn't work as Shepard Smith found out during a police chase several years ago. | ||
| You guys remember that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Yeah, I do. | ||
| The guy died on live on Fox News. | ||
| And he was like, wasn't he like, cut it, cut it, oh! | ||
| Something like that. | ||
| Yeah, it was like too late. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's why we need a dump button, everybody. | |
| Yeah, that's what it's called, a dump button? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Correct, yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Cause we, we operate with like almost no lag. | ||
| I think it's like, we have a very, very minimal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's so short. | |
| It's like 10 seconds. | ||
|
unidentified
|
10 seconds at most, 15 seconds. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Which we just like, this studio is duct tape. | ||
| Like, it's good duct tape. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Literally. | |
| But it's duct tape. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| There's a lot of duct tape everywhere. | ||
| Uh, the lights? | ||
| Duct tape? | ||
| So we have a professional studio production company coming in in a few weeks for the new studio, and they're gonna have, like, professional lighting. | ||
| Well, technically, it's gaff tape. | ||
| It's gaff tape. | ||
| It's gaff tape. | ||
| We're not heathens here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm just grateful that the lights are white and not yellow. | |
| Well, I know the other ones are in the middle, right? Yeah, but the white one is on me | ||
| So it's like the eyes they're both on you Mine is a level of warmth like for me the lights like I can't | ||
| even wear my glasses in here cuz I get it Greatly yeah, yeah. Well the pop culture studio isn't it | ||
| like a bunch of different lights aimed in different ways? | ||
| Yeah, well, yeah, there's like there's four to six different neons that are all pointed in different to give | ||
| different color the the Purple and green. So this is the fourth IRL studio | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| The first studio had a few stand-up lights. | ||
| Second IRL studio had a few stand-up lights. | ||
| The third IRL studio, which is now the Pop Culture Crash Studio, had like 12 lights in a bunch of different random positions. | ||
| We've slowly removed them. | ||
| Trying to light. | ||
| Streamlined it. | ||
| I'd like to get like soft boxes up there at some point, just to have less stuff up there. | ||
| Oh, they look good, yeah. | ||
| You're moving around a lot of stuff, and depending on what time of day it is and how tired you are, you bump into a lot of lights. | ||
| What we did for this studio was In the corner of the ceiling, there's LED bars that wrap around the entire room, so all light is balanced, and then in the middle is warmer lights, they're more yellow, and then we control the amount of warmth that we have in the center of the room versus the white on the outside of the room, so everything is uniform and there's no shadows. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That's interesting. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But the new studio is going to likely have shadows. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are they gonna, like, bang it out all at once to, like, do it, or are they gonna do it in between your shows? | |
| No, we won't go there if they're under construction. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, I thought they were doing it here, sorry. | |
| No, no, no, it's a new building. | ||
| Yeah, totally new place, totally new building. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| But yeah, man, we're really excited. | ||
| That should be in a couple weeks. | ||
| All right, everybody, if you, what do we got here? | ||
| Let's grab one more. | ||
