tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'm David Pakman.
		And my response immediately was like, wow.
		If a thousand dudes who are unarmed rioting at a government building is enough to destroy this nation, we're gonna have to cancel all of our foreign wars and foreign funding because we are much too weak to be involved in any kind of war if a thousand unarmed dudes rioting at the Capitol is going to destroy the fabric of this nation.
		Of course, Joe Biden's full of it, and it's not true, but this is his play, I guess.
		January 6th is tomorrow.
		It's the anniversary.
		And, uh, this is his big, uh, his pitch to the American people as to why we should vote for him again, I guess.
		You know, I gotta say, it's actually quite remarkable because I remember all the other campaigns where they'd say something like, John McCain is bad on taxes and bad on America.
		And it's like...
		Taxes.
		That was the issue.
		Now you got Joe Biden making videos where he says, half this country is evil and wants to kill you.
		And it's like, oh, that's a heck of a campaign strategy.
		So we'll talk about that.
		And I got to be honest, there are a bunch of really great and important news stories.
		But I'm going to say this one instead.
		Aliens.
		Because in Miami, NBC News reports aliens.
		Okay, so here's what happened.
		Some kids were fighting with sticks and fireworks.
		People reported it as gunshots.
		The police show up.
		And then for some reason online, people claimed that 8-foot tall shadow alien beings were being shot at.
		And NBC picked the story up.
		Of course, they actually put in the headline, LOL.
		But, uh, it's Friday, so we're gonna have fun.
		We'll talk about all this stuff.
		Before we get started, my friends, head over to castbrew.com to buy Cast Brew Coffee.
unidentified		Why?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because it is the best dang coffee you'll ever have.
		Appalachian Nights is so good, whole beans sold out.
		But we are about to get a new stock of the whole bean Appalachian Nights ground coffee still available.
		And of course, everyone's favorite, Rise with Roberto Jr.
		We got decaf.
		We got decaf Sleepy Joe.
		I gotta tell you, it's a great gift for your friends and family to buy them a bag of Sleepy Joe coffee, because it's funny, it's hilarious.
		We also got K-Cups.
		If you want to support the show, you go to Caspery.com, you buy coffee, because we sponsor ourselves, and this is our coffee company.
		We are also working on our coffee shops.
		The work is happening, trust me, the equipment is in, and it's looking now like, I know everyone's gonna groan when they hear this, we got contractors, we're going over the paperwork, April!
		By April, we should have this beautiful and amazing coffee shop up and ready.
		And I trust these guys because they finished our new studio already.
		So the new studio is done.
		All we have to do, I should say the construction is done.
		Now we're waiting for technical work.
		But these guys are also like, we're going to get your coffee shop done.
		It'll be done by April.
		It's going to be huge.
		Support us and get involved if you'd like.
		But also head over to TimCast.com.
		Click join us.
		Become a member.
		We got tickets for members only to the Iowa caucus show on January 15th in Iowa in Des Moines.
		We will have live audience seats very small amount.
		I think it's only 50 and we're probably we're probably going to sell out in 10 minutes from now.
		But you're gonna be hanging out up close and personal with the crew.
		We got security, everything's gonna be great.
		We're gonna have a rotating group of people from the caucus, different political campaigns, hanging out explaining what's going on as we talk about this.
		It'll probably be an extended show.
		And I gotta tell you, it's not so much that you're buying tickets to an event.
		This is not so much like an auditorium event where you're sitting in a chair in front of a stage.
		This is more like you are coming into a building with everyone to hang out during the Iowa caucus.
		That's why there's very few tickets, we're taking security very seriously, and it's why they're a bit more expensive.
		But become a member at TimCast.com if you want to support us and you want to buy those tickets.
		Smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends.
		Joining us tonight to talk about this and a whole lot more is Representative Alex Mooney.
unidentified		Hey, great to be with you.
unidentified		Great to be with you.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, you're a member of Congress?
unidentified		Yeah, I represent West Virginia, half the state, 27 counties, District No.
		2, but it's, I have to say, most of my colleagues are Congressmen, there's one of 10, they represent maybe 10% of the state, but in my case, I have the pleasure of representing half the state, and they changed around the districts last cycle, I've actually represented two-thirds of the state.
		Wow.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's great, so you're our rep.
		We're not currently at our West Virginia studio yet because it's being built, but for where I live and for where we're setting up everything, you will be our rep.
		But you're also running for the Senate.
unidentified		I'm running for the Senate, Republican primary, May 14th.
		Joe Manchin has chosen to retire.
		Everyone's seen that?
		Good.
		I think he knew he couldn't win anyway.
		There's no other Democrat that's of any credibility that anybody can think of that could run.
		So most people are well aware, this is 100%, whoever wins the Republican primary is going to win the general election.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
		When we were first moving to the area, Cassandra Fairbanks, now Cassandra McDonald, She was like, we gotta find a way to get this guy in the show.
		You're gonna love me.
		He's like Ron Paul.
		And I was like, really?
		She's like, yeah, he wants the gold standard.
unidentified		I do want the gold standard.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I was like, all right, cool.
		So we finally got you here.
		So, uh, and you also have a bunch of resolutions.
unidentified		I have the bill on the gold standard.
		I wasn't sure what was gonna come up on the show.
		So, House Resolution 2435.
		You can look it up, because I'm an elected official.
		I'm in my 10th year in Congress.
		And a lot of people running for office say what they're gonna do, what they promise to do in the future.
		I'd like to talk about what I've actually done.
		What I've actually shown to do, put in.
		I'm the first congressman to put in a bill to return our country to the gold standard since Jack Kemp in the 1980s.
		But I'm in good company.
		Ronald Reagan was for it.
		Donald Trump said he was supportive.
		Ted Cruz, many others.
		So it is a good thing to do.
		I've done my research and we're looking at inflation today and all the games played with monetary policy and the Fed and so much government intervention in the free market in so many ways.
		Returning the gold standard will get that under control.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is gonna be fun.
		You got a bunch of other bills too, but we'll talk about all this.
		Thanks for hanging out.
		Should be fun.
		We got Carter Banks hanging out.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		What's up, everyone?
		Carter Banks here, All Things Music at Timcast and Trash House.
		I'm just hanging out, showing off this bandana that Jessica made me.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, cool.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		So yeah, we got Phil as well.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Hello, everybody.
		My name is Phil Labonte, lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains.
		Failed musician, anti-communist, counter-revolutionary.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Serge!
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I am here.
		I wanted to shout out Suit and Tie Guy.
		Thanks for this record, man.
		I appreciate the record a lot.
		Looks like the old Trax Records from Chicago.
		And the shirt, as well.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And the record has great vibes.
		It emanates great vibes.
		I'm just behind the tchotchke array here, so I'm picking up the vibes, I think.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, anyways, let's roll.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Let's hit it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We got the story from the post-millennial.
		Breaking!
		Biden targets President Trump, quote, MAGA extremists in unhinged Angry Valley Forge speech.
		Before leaving the stage, Biden yelled out, I understand power.
unidentified		Whoa!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'm sorry, man.
		Joe Biden is just not with it, okay?
		He is old, he is incomprehensible, and the idea that he could hold this position is laughable.
		But of course, there are a lot of people that want him to have this position.
		To be fair, that number is dwindling every single day.
		We had that story yesterday where his volunteers are quitting in droves.
		But let's start by playing this clip from C-SPAN because, you know, Sometimes.
		I don't know if I would use the word unhinged as liberally as, say, the post-millennial would, but I have to agree with him at least here.
		Because when Joe Biden says, we almost lost our country over January 6th, I'm like, Unhinged.
		Absolutely detached from reality.
		After January 6th, one of the first things I said was, guys, it's not the 1600s anymore.
		You can't seize control of a government by standing in a building.
		But Joe Biden apparently thinks it is!
		Because he's probably old enough to remember, but here's the clip.
		Let's play it.
joe biden ▲ ● ▼		I just visited the grounds of Alley Forge.
		I've been there a number of times since the time I was a Boy Scout years ago.
		You know, it's the very site that I think every American should visit.
		Because it tells a story of the pain and the suffering and the true patriotism it took to make America.
		Today, we gather in a new year, some 246 years later, just one day before January 6th, a date forever shared in our memory because it was on that day that we nearly lost America, lost it all.
		Today, we're here to answer the most important of questions.
		Is democracy still America's sacred cause?
unidentified		No.
joe biden ▲ ● ▼		This is not rhetorical, academic or hypothetical.
joe biden ▲ ● ▼		Whether democracy is still America's sacred cause is the most urgent question of our time.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He's he's correct.
		Well, he's he's correct.
		See, the the parasitic woke Individuals who are trying to displace the American Constitutional Republic with their multicultural democracy are terrified that those who believe in the Constitutional Republic and the vision of the Founding Fathers, they're terrified that we're winning.
		And so when Joe Biden gets up there and says, our democracy, you need to understand he's not talking about you guys.
		Because when we sit here and say this country has never been a democracy, He clearly isn't talking to us.
		This was really fascinating.
		During the COVID lockdowns, when you saw Ron DeSantis relieving the lockdown pressure, when Kristi Noem, she didn't lock down South Dakota, Joe Biden made a statement about how we are all doing this thing, how we must do this, we are doing this.
		And I noticed something really interesting.
		I said, that's fascinating because the red states aren't doing this, only the blue states are.
		So when Joe Biden addresses the nation and says what we are doing, he's explicitly saying, I am not talking to you Republicans.
		And when he does this, it's the exact same message.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's actually a Maoist, or it harkens back to Maoism.
		When Mao would talk about the communists, he would talk about their democracy, and he would talk about the Chinese people and stuff, but he was only talking about people that shared his political perspective.
		James Lindsay has a great, and I know I bring up James Lindsay a lot, but James Lindsay has a great Wow.
		Podcast on this that goes through one of Mao's speeches and actually compares it to
		One of Joe Biden's speeches and I will find it and post it on my Twitter account
		But it's it's what they do. They constantly like they exclude
		intentionally with language that sounds inclusive But essentially if you are not thought of as or if you're
		not in their in-group You're thought of as an as not a whole person
		That's one of the things that Mao said.
		If you weren't a communist, you didn't have a soul.
		They really looked at it almost as a spiritual thing.
		It doesn't surprise me.
		It doesn't do anything that he said he was going to do when it comes to trying to bring the U.S.
		together.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Reminds me of when they said, not my president, but an inversion of that, like, not my people.
unidentified		Yeah.
		When I talk to children in particular, they say, before Montgomery, they say, let's say a pledge of allegiance.
		Pledge of allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands.
		Right there in the pledge of allegiance.
		And when these liberals come up and say democracy and ignore that we're a republic with constitutional laws and rights, it's as if they think they can just, whatever they feel like, make it the law.
		It totally tramples your rights as an individual, your freedoms.
		It's not our government.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I think that that's, I think that the, attempts to adjust language and meanings of words is
		actually or what it boils down to is an attempt to circumvent the law because if they
		can convince you that the words contained in a piece of legislation don't
		mean what they plainly mean what they plainly in what you would plainly understand
		them to mean then the whole meaning of the law changes that's one of the things
		again that you hear you hear land dedications often and those should be
		completely and totally off-limits because what it does is it plants the seed of
		of illegitimacy of the United States.
		That means that the land that you're on, whoever owns it, they acquired it illegitimately.
		That means that the government can take it because you're not protected by the Fourth Amendment for illegitimately acquired lands.
		And those kind of twisting of meanings is what the left does constantly.
		They've been doing it.
		And if people want to argue and say, no, right now we are literally in the United States arguing over what a woman is.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Democrats, the corporate press, they're very good at controlling the debate itself and pulling you away from arguing about what you want into arguing on their terms.
		So instead of arguing why we should get rid of gun control, we're arguing to what degree we accept gun control.
		And to be fair, it is Republicans in the past who have been in favor of gun control too.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But where we are now, The people who claim that we're a democracy are the people who think that they can simply get together, and if there are more of them than you, they can decide to vote and you no longer have rights.
		That's not how a republic works.
		A democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what's for lunch.
		A republic is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
		I'm probably not getting it absolutely correctly, but I believe Benjamin Franklin said that.
		That's the point.
		The wolves can vote whatever they want.
		You have a right to live, they can't just vote to eat you.
		But the way these people view it is, look, there's a reason why Joe Biden is, it is unambiguous, he is facilitating Illegal immigration into this country on a mass scale, colluding with human traffickers, and his administration explicitly smuggling children in the dead of night on these planes, faster and more than ever.
		And it's because their mentality is, if the population of a country doesn't agree with you, import a different one.
unidentified		And the other way to say democracy, it's mob rule.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		If you have 51% of the vote, you can take away the rights of the other 49%.
		And take the thing like free speech.
		I never thought, you know, in my last four years in Congress, when Democrats had total control,
		that they really thought they could throw people off the internet.
		I mean, when they threw Donald Trump off Twitter, for example, you know, you think if you can throw
		the president off, do you think the rest of Americans won't be thrown off the social media?
		If the left or the owners think it's something you just say something you disagree with.
		And to think that they can tell us what we can say and what we can even think, and I'm telling you, I've seen it, man, in Congress.
		I've seen them put that stuff in.
		The witch hunt investigation or the rule of law has been applied one way for Republicans, another way for Democrats.
		It is scary.
		And you mentioned, you know, anti-communists.
		My mother fled a communist country.
		She was born and raised in Cuba.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Oh, okay.
unidentified		And she came here when she was 20 to live in freedom, as have many other immigrants who've come here legally.
		And to see the left in this country act that way, that we're not a republic, it's whatever they want they can do to us, it is scary.
		It is as scary as your listeners might think, if not more so, what I've actually seen.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Michael Malice makes the excellent point.
		It can be much, much worse than you think.
		People don't realize what bad is.
		And so they hear these stories about communism and it's just like, the typical thing you hear about what communist countries do is the light side of how bad it gets.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Today, shout out to the Punk Rock MBA on Twitter.
		He is a YouTuber.
		His name's Finn McKinsey.
		He made a video about the breakup of Rage Against the Machine and he was rightly critical of The band using communist imagery.
		It's unacceptable.
		It's like using Nazi imagery.
		Communists killed millions and millions and millions of people.
		There's a reason why I say every day that I'm on the show that I'm an anti-communist and counter-revolutionary, because that's an actual... Like, there are people in the United States Congress That are in the DSA.
		The DSA constantly tweets supportive messages about Marx.
		They tweet supportive messages about Lenin.
		Like, this is not a joke, you know, and you bring it up to people.
		They're so quick to say that we have a right-wing problem in the United States to the point where the right is almost just the concept of the right is synonymous with bad.
		And that's just so detached from reality. You can look at the right and say there are bad
		things that have been done from people on the right or bad ideas that have come from right,
		fine. But to think that an entire philosophy, because right now on the right is where
		the enlightenment lives, right? Like all of your romantic philosophies, like socialism is a
		romantic philosophy. It's based in the idea that you can will things into existence as opposed to
		reason, like the enlightenment. And the idea that this stuff is acceptable, it's just it's so bad
		for the country and it will cause massive problems. And we're starting to see them.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's bad for the world.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, 100%.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
unidentified		It's failed everywhere it's been tried.
unidentified		Why do we need to try it again?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
		I mean... They're not gonna stop trying.
		I can go on and on about this.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		You see that meme here, man?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That meme where that, what was that woman?
		She's like from Al Jazeera Plus or whatever, and she says...
		You know, just because socialism hasn't been implemented properly doesn't mean we just give up.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Sometimes when you, you know, you got to break some eggs or whatever, and then someone responds with, oops, I burned the souffle, and it shows the killing fields or whatever.
unidentified		Like, dude.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Nobody knows about all these things that happen.
		And they only know about, like, the right stuff.
		And they don't realize socialism is a road to communism.
		That's the whole point.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I was talking over the holidays with people, and everyone's heard of the right-wing boogeyman.
		Joe Biden giving the speech like, oh my god!
		And I'm talking to people, I'm like, did you know that in 2020 we saw the worst riots this country's seen in five decades?
		It was the left.
		Did you know that on May 29th, 2020, thousands of far-left extremists firebombed the White House, setting fire to a guard post, setting fire to St.
		John's Church, the historical church across the street?
		Seventy-plus police officers were injured in the scuffle and the president was forced into an emergency bunker.
		They go, What?
		We've had people on this show!
		We had Marianne Williamson, I asked her, and she's like, I don't know what happened.
		What are you talking about?
		It's like, how do you not know what is happening in your backyard?
		Look, Marianne Williamson is a very, very nice lady, and she is more deserving of being president than Joe Biden and any other Democrat running for the Democrats.
		But I got to be honest, if you don't know that the house you are seeking to occupy was firebombed only a couple of years ago, I'm not sure you're fit for the job.
		It's something you should know.
unidentified		They call them mostly peaceful protests when they do it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		When they were burning down a police station.
		Which, like young people don't realize it, but I mean I'm probably your age, you're probably my age, like back in the 80s these kinds of phrases we were familiar with because we would watch, I watched a bunch of shows about You know, about Russia, about a lot of stuff about East Germany.
		There was this this one show about paintball, like these kids that used to play paintball and they got mixed up with spies in East Germany.
		It was super cool.
		But the point is, like, you would hear how in these in communist countries and in socialist countries, how phrases would be said and everybody was aware that they did not mean what they said, like the words that they were saying and the meaning behind the words were totally incongruous.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's like what we saw with Vivek Ramaswamy gets questioned by that Washington Post woman and she says, well, you condemn white supremacy.
		And he's like, I condemn all forms of racial discrimination.
		And it's because white supremacy to the left means something different than what it actually means.
		They have their own different language.
		It's fascinating.
		They use words That to them means something, but to us means something different, on purpose to trick us.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And to trick the ignorant.
		And so when Vivek Ramaswamy gets interviewed by those two, and by that Dasha Burns or whatever her name is, it's one of the most, like, just, you know, that lady needs to be fired.
		But I understand NBC is not a news organization, they're an activist organization, so why would they fire their proselytizers?
		But this woman Dasha is not interviewing a presidential candidate, she's berating someone over her personal, emotional, activist cause.
		And Vivek accurately points out, the issue with white supremacy is that they define it as punctuality and like an hour-based work schedule.
		So I need to understand, is that what you want me to condemn?
		And she's just interrupting him non-stop.
		It's fascinating when Vivek is on the CNN town hall debate stage, they always have to interrupt because they're not journalists.
		They're not here to say, tell me your thoughts on issue.
		They're here to say, here's what you're supposed to think on issue, shut your mouth.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		It reminds me of the Trump-CNN town hall thing every time.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		They would ask him stuff, and he would give an answer, and then she would correct him with incorrect stuff.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's just shocking to me.
		Again, I bring up people that were alive when communist countries were prevalent, like during the Cold War.
		It's like, why is it that... I know there are people in Congress that are old enough to remember.
		Why are they unaware?
		Why is it that none of the Republicans in Congress actually will call out anyone on the squad and be like, why are you associating with the DSA when the DSA is tweeting Lenin quotes?
		Why are you associating with them?
		Why do you caucus with them?
		Why is that acceptable?
		And I mean, like, you guys should, I wish that you guys would do it, because this should, you should be absolutely shamed into a cave if you sit there and walk around with a sickle and hammer, or if you're quoting Marx.
		And I mean, not to, you know, go back to the whole, like, Rage Against the Machine thing, but the guy's got a pedal that has a Lenin quote on it.
		Like, sometimes history needs a push.
		The push was a million, it was a hundred million people.
		On the, it's a, it's a, it's a foot pedal made by Dunlop.
		It's a, it's his wah pedal on the side of it.
		I gotta, I just.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Wait, you could buy that from, from Dunlop?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Jim Dunlop, yeah, Dunlop company.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They have it, it's, it's on the side of.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You can, you can go to the website, buy a pedal that has that quote.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I will bring up the picture, my friend.
		Yes, you can.
		Absolutely.
		And it says... That's wild.
		It says, yeah, sometimes history needs a push.
		And that push, like I said, that push is a hundred million dead people.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So let's clarify real quick.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is a guitar pedal available from Dunlop Corporation, the Dunlop company, that you can go and buy right now with a Lennon quote on it that says, sometimes history needs a push.
unidentified		Yes.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Everyone should email that company asking why they are calling for the genocide against Slavic people.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I can't think of any more clear way to put it than that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, let's play the game.
		Contact them and say...
		So this is like the signature, sometimes history needs a push.
		It's got a communist star on it!
		It's got the red star on it and it's, you know, on the side it says, yeah, I just retweeted it, it's on my, it's on the top of my... Yeah, how about everybody reach out to Dunlop and ask them why they're selling genocidal, calling for genocide, why they're supporting genocide and then see what they say.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		This kind of stuff, the fact that we accept this as a society is because we have a redwashed Redwashed educational system.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's Dunlop, you say, huh?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What do I got here?
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Done with Dunlop.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Okay, this is a Fender guitar pick.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I will not use Dunlop guitar picks anymore.
		I used to use Tortex.
		Those were the ones!
		Not anymore!
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		That's Dunlop?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the Jazz Tortex, the purple Jazz 3s.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No longer.
unidentified		When you talk about my age and the history, I mean, I graduated high school in 89, went off to college, and there was a class on the Soviet Union.
		And part of the theme of the class was how that Soviet Union was there to stay, we have to learn to work with them, and they're never going to go away, except that it went away that year.
		They had to cancel the class because the Soviet Union fell apart completely, because communism doesn't work, socialism doesn't work.
		Even that guy Joe Biden was head of Foreign Affairs Committee at the time, and was one of the leading proponents of working with the Soviet Union, accepting them as an equal, don't fight them.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He really was, he?
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
		Him and a bunch of lefties were, hey, we can't fight these guys.
		I guess they didn't have a problem with them.
		I don't know.
		But they had the view that the Soviet Union was a workable economy, and it was powerful, and it was fine, and we just got to accept them.
		And the Republicans didn't believe that.
		I mean, some did, some didn't.
		But they got crushed.
		And so they fell apart because it doesn't work.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I don't think they knew about the gulags yet.
unidentified		You don't need to push anything.
unidentified		I'm sorry?
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I don't think they knew about the gulags yet.
unidentified		Who?
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Oh, back when they said that, probably?
unidentified		Yeah, well, the countries within there, you know, Poland, they were fighting for freedom.
		They were believing in the right to have property and things and the stuff they'd had before they got taken over by the communists.
		And they underestimated that and frankly threw them under the bus saying that Soviet Union would never, you know, dissolve.
		It dissolved.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		That was kind of the general consensus, though.
		Information didn't travel the way that it does now, and back then, you didn't think that the Soviet Union was going to fall the day before it fell.
		It's on December 26th, in case anyone wants to celebrate it with me every year.
unidentified		The Berlin Wall goes down.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but it was the end of the Soviet Union.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's show this real quick.
		This is, uh, I just, I just Google-searched it.
		There's a website called George's Music.
		I wouldn't recommend anyone contacting just, like, a small distributor or, like, a small retail store or whatever, but here's... Sometimes History Needs a Push.
		And that is the, what was it, the Crybaby Wah Tom Morello pedal.
		And, uh, here you can see from BrainyQuote, Vladimir Lenin, Sometimes History Needs a Push.
		So why don't we ask Dunlop why it is that... I mean, that quote is specifically a call for genocide.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Historically, it's a call for genocide.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Because the push is millions dead.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The point was that there are people who are resistant to your changes, and if you're on the right side of history, you have to push against them.
		And what was that push?
		They killed 100 million people in the history of communism.
		So, uh, no.
		No Dunlop!
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's pro-Bolshevik.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		No thanks.
		It's frustrating.
		It's frustrating as hell.
		I mean, I called out, like, I was making a stink about this when, uh, what was his name?
		Speaker Ryan used a, talked about Rage Against the Machine, it was like 2012.
		Oh, okay.
		When Ryan was speaker, I called out, you know, I was like, oh, blah, blah, blah, because he talked about you coming out to Rage Against the Machine or something like that.
		Coming out to them?
		Well, he was walking out.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I thought he was gay, I was like, what?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		No, I mean, well, Ryan, you know, Speaker Ryan, maybe, but either way, he caught some crap from the guys in Rage and I wrote up a An op-ed, I think they ran it in AP.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Rage on behalf of the machine, though.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I was like, you're a commie, what are you talking about?
		And I was like, you can't sit there and talk about Republicans being bad when you're a literal communist, because it's no comparison.
		Any liberal, as much as the communists online want to swear up and down that capitalism actually kills millions of people and blah blah blah, any liberal should understand that A liberal society is far and away better than a communist society.
		And you should be able to vocally explain why.
		You should be able to do that.
		You should be taught that stuff in school.
		And now we've got LGBT studies in school and stuff.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Communism couldn't exist without capitalism.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		In the first place.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		So all it really is is just taking everyone back down until it fails and everyone has to start over from scratch.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's just perpetual.
		Good?
		No, no, no.
		Wrap it up.
		Marx knew that the way Marx looked at it was like there's stages of history and he thought that capitalism was going to get so successful and so abundant that you'd be able to have socialism and it would be steps in history or whatever.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We got, uh, we got more big news.
		We'll segue out of this one.
		From The Independent, Supreme Court will decide if Trump can be kept off 2024 ballots after January 6th insurrection.
		I love how they just, they make an affirmative statement in the headline despite the fact the headline is literally, the Supreme Court will decide If there's actually any question of the insurrection in the 14th Amendment.
		Because the argument is, if Trump did engage in insurrection, then the 14th Amendment would keep him off.
		However, well actually that's not fair, that's not fair.
		The 14th Amendment likely doesn't even apply to the President.
		And Trump hasn't even been charged with any kind of insurrection, so we're nowhere near there.
		But of course, The Independent is going to affirmatively state in the headline after it already happened.
		But anyway, that's why I used this source, because, you know, we love our leftist friends.
		The reality is the Supreme Court has granted certs to Donald Trump.
		He will go to the Supreme Court and have his argument.
		The Supreme Court will listen to the argument as to whether or not Trump can be removed from these ballots.
		This could end the issue once and for all.
		So I hope they answer this really, really quickly.
		I don't know when they're expected to come into session.
		But, you know, there's a slim chance the Supreme Court comes out and says, actually, yes, Trump did engage in insurrection, and so he's off the ballot.
		And it pulls him off the ballot everywhere.
		Not really going to happen.
		But, you know, look, the reason Roe v. Wade got overturned at the Supreme Court is because a group, I think it was Mississippi, right, where they filed the lawsuit?
unidentified		Yeah, Mississippi.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They sued because Mississippi set a ban on abortion, and so they sued saying, hey, you can't do this, and the Supreme Court said, not only can they, Roe v. Wade's gone, everybody!
		So if they just did not challenge it and let Mississippi do what they wanted, Roe v. Wade would still be there.
		They lost it all.
		So there's a possibility this could backfire, but I really do think the Supreme Court's going to side with Trump on this one.
unidentified		I think it'll backfire.
		It actually goes back to what we were talking about.
		You think it'll backfire?
		I think it'll backfire.
		Yeah, I think the court's just going to say, you can't do that.
		You guys can't be throwing presidential candidates.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, I meant backfire on Trump.
unidentified		No, no, no, I think it'll backfire on the lefties.
		Right, right, right.
		Backfire in the sense that the states that are meddling around.
		I mean, Colorado's not as much of a target state.
		Maine has the one congressional district that sometimes goes for Republicans.
		It goes back to what we were saying about the communists.
		In this country, we're not communists.
		Therefore, we're innocent until proven guilty.
		People have heard of that.
		Innocent until proven guilty.
		President Trump has been convicted of absolutely nothing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He's not been charged.
unidentified		He hasn't been charged, but he's convicted.
unidentified		So therefore, he's an innocent man under the rule of law.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Nobody has been charged with insurrection, have they?
unidentified		Conspiracy to commit, I think is what they were after.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		I think it was conspiracy to commit it, not actually committing it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		They were clever with that.
		But nonetheless, we're talking about President Trump on the ballot.
		He's convicted of absolutely nothing, and these are people who claim to be for the people?
		Like, really?
		So if an innocent man, because you're innocent until proven guilty, can be thrown off ballots because you don't like him, or because you think he may have done something?
		I mean, this is basically chaos.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, what about Santos?
unidentified		Yeah, same thing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Same thing.
		He's not been convicted of nothing either.
		Yeah, and he got, that's crazy.
unidentified		Infuriating.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		But Mendez gets to stay with gold bars in his pockets.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		How has he not been expelled?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Didn't they just issue a superseding indictment?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I do not know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Like, oh, we got more on this guy.
unidentified		Yeah, there's a lot.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Santos has been accused of a lot of things, but he's not been convicted of anything, and that's crazy.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He's guilty of being awesome.
unidentified		The only two people we've ever thrown out before were actually convicted of something, so that's a different standard.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		But the reason that it happened is because Republicans are stupid and because Democrats are crafty.
unidentified		Democrats are more than happy to vote with, of course, and I was there voting, less than half the Republicans voted for that.
		Interestingly enough, the new Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, the majority leader, Steve Scalise, the majority whip, and everyone in leadership voted against removing him, against removing him, as did most Republicans, but the committee reported it out nonetheless, overriding leadership.
		Wow.
		Yeah.
		So, I mean, Kevin McCarthy's the one who set up the committee, he resigned now, but the new Speaker, Mike Johnson, voted against it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't know how Kevin would have, you know, I don't And so basically, what was it, how many Republicans ended up voting?
unidentified		It ended up being like 111 voted no to expel him, including me, and about 90 or so voted yes to expel him, so the minority of the Republicans, but every Democrat, I think one abstained, but basically every Democrat was more than happy to throw him out.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Everyone, like, I can't imagine.
unidentified		Yeah, convicted of nothing.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I can't believe that that many Republicans voted to throw him out.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		105 Republicans voted to expel.
unidentified		It's ridiculous.
unidentified		How many voted against?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's see.
		More than 100 Republicans joined Democrats to expel Santos and Newsweek has the list.
		Let's grab a name at random.
		We're going to shuffle it up a little bit and then... Ron Estes of Kansas, you are a scumbag!
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Unlucky guy.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Unlucky.
unidentified		Uh-oh!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Did I see Dan Crenshaw on there?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Oh God, please.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Dan Crenshaw!
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Dan.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Dan, you're a scumbag.
unidentified		Why on earth would Dan Crenshaw vote for that?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Is there anybody in here I know that I'm going to have to call a scumbag?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because I will.
unidentified		I will.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let me go through.
		Dan, we almost had him on the show.
		He's been invited several times, but he canceled on us every time.
		He's not a scumbag for that.
		He's allowed to cancel on us.
		You don't have to come on the show.
		Nobody owes me any favors.
		But voting to expel Santos, who is not convicted of any crime, is pathetic, spineless behavior.
		I don't know if I know anybody in here.
		We mostly have the Freedom Caucus people in here.
		They like to say, oh, Tim Poole's right wing.
		I was like, eh, there's like moderate libertarians on this show.
		You know what I mean?
		So if it's like Freedom Caucus people, we're usually friends with them and they're usually doing the right thing.
		We don't got to worry about them.
		But as for the rest of these people, I don't even know who these guys are.
		Ken Buck.
		Sorry, Ken, you're a scumbag.
		Andy Barr, scumbag.
		You can apologize after the fact, but right now I just call you scumbags.
		Anyway, what were we talking about?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Uh, how the Republicans are unreliable and they will vote to boot people that are Republicans, whereas the Democrats obviously wouldn't.
		You look at the way that the, like, and Grant, this isn't in Congress, but it's still the same ideology.
		The way the Democrats are flipping out and, and making a massive issue over the firing of, uh, of President Gay from Harvard.
		They're all swearing up and down that it's because of racism when the woman clearly had massive amounts of perjury in her history, and she made terribly anti-Semitic comments in front of Congress.
		That's totally justified to ask her to step down, especially considering Harvard has a reputation to worry about.
		The anti-Semitic comments alone are enough for Harvard to be like, you have made remarks that do not line up with Harvard's values, you need to step down.
		That you can disagree, but at least it makes sense.
		And to allow her to stay and sit there and to not take care of the problem and sit there and defend her as if she has done nothing wrong and as if it's just based on racism is absolutely insane.
		But that's the way that they behave.
		They will not go after their own, and anytime there's a chink in the Republican's armor, they're gonna go for it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I can't wait.
		You know, because we got elections coming up, and we get more and more elected officials running for re-election who want to come on shows like this.
		Well, they're not going to come on this show.
		That's not going to happen.
		People say to me all the time, like, Tim, you got to be nice, otherwise they're not going to want to come on your show.
		And I'm like, ah!
		Good, I don't want them.
		I mean, look, you got Comer on there.
		There's absolutely people I'd love to have conversations with.
		But I'm sorry, man.
		I'm going to be a dick about it.
		I think one of the scummiest things you could have done is They could have waited.
		They could have been like, okay, we got some evidence, let's get it documented as this country is supposed to do to prove that he's guilty, and then get a unanimous vote and be like, you're guilty of this stuff, you get out of here, man.
		Instead, it's just guilty until proven innocent at this point.
		It's a dark path for this country, and I'm sick and tired of Republicans.
		You know what I see, and you know what so many Americans see, and I think this is why so many Americans are pro-Trump, and voted for Trump in 2016, and I was late to the party, you know it.
		But look at this.
		Republicans get on their knees for Democrats, the Democrats crack the whip and the Republicans say, you know, please, may I have another?
		Remarkable.
		I will say this.
		I'd love to advocate for the impeachment of Joe Biden at this point on principal grounds, but strategically, please don't impeach the man.
		Let him stay in there so he can lose in 2024.
unidentified		You understand impeachment, you've still got to convict in the Senate, so... Right, okay, so in that case impeach him.
unidentified		He would not be removed from office.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So we can do it then?
unidentified		You could impeach him, but there's no way he'd be convicted.
		So what I say to people is, look, we got an election coming up here in November, so you want to get rid of him.
		That's the best effective way to do it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Missouri State Senator Bill Eagle sponsored a bill to disqualify Joe Biden from the 2024 ballot.
		Alex posted this at 8.22 p.m.
		I'll expose this at 8 22 p.m. today.
unidentified		Yeah, you know what I think?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'd love to advocate for the impeachment and conviction of Joe Biden, but I think you're right, because we were for a long time, like this guy, the Burisma stuff, I mean the border stuff, I think the border, the facilitation of the immigration crisis, he's suing Texas now, he's facilitating this, I think you can say this is high crimes and misdemeanors, all that stuff, but I kind of think if the Republicans impeach Joe Biden, Thinking, hey, we'll earn some political points.
		He'll never get convicted.
		He'll get convicted.
		Democrats will be like, oh, gee, you know what, Republicans, you're right.
		Biden's got to go.
		Good luck.
		Good luck in November.
		Because then they bring in Gavin Newsom.
		And they would love to get Joe Biden to swap out somehow.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Gruesome Newsome, yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Gruesome Newsome.
unidentified		We couldn't even impeach Mayorkas, who's Homeland Security Secretary, who won't enforce the border.
		And, you know, he'd be easier to impeach him.
		We still haven't done that.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I hate the fact that they are so unable to do anything.
		Like, we're gonna talk, you know, we're gonna have Vivek Ramaswamy next week, and he's talking about making major, major cuts.
		Real, substantive cuts.
		Like, I would love to see the government just shrink a little bit.
		Never mind, you know, I mean, well, actually, I would love to see the government stop growing and stop trying to insert itself into, you know, things that essentially are personal and stuff.
		I mean, I would give, you know, just anything to see it just stop growing.
		You know, just stop.
unidentified		First stop doing more harm.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you know, that's what you do.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		First thing you do is stop the bleeding, right?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's pull up this story.
		We got this tweet from ALX.
		Missouri State Senator Bill Igle sponsors a bill to disqualify Joe Biden from the 2024 ballot.
		Alright, what's his argument?
		he says, in the wake of the formal efforts in 33 states to remove President Donald J. Trump from
		the ballot, State Senator Bill Igle will be putting forth legislation that would disqualify Biden from
		the ballot in Missouri, saying the following, by the Democrats own standard, Joe Biden should be
		immediately disqualified and removed from the ballot for the aid and comfort he has given to
		our enemies. Our country is being invaded because Joe Biden has swung our southern border wide open.
		President Biden has allowed more than 8 million people to stroll across the border illegally,
		causing more harm to this country than any other president in American history.
		My legislation exposes the absolute absurdity of Colorado and Maine's
		decisions to remove President Donald J. Trump from the ballot.
		If radical leftists continue to push lies and fairy tales in an attempt to kick Trump off the ballot in their states, Republicans have no choice but to buck up and fight back.
		Use the facts to remove Biden from the ballot before he destroys this country even further.
		Democrats only believe in democracy when it favors them.
		Let's expose their double-standard hypocrisy.
		We must stand our ground to protect the security of our nation and the sovereignty of our people.
		Bill Igle is the only Missouri gubernatorial candidate to endorse President Trump in his 2024 re-election bid.
		Paid for by Igle for Missouri, Thomas Hughes' treasurer.
		I agree.
		But, uh, I gotta tell ya, there's a, uh, it's a pretty wild scenario when red states pull Biden off the ballot and blue states pull Trump off the ballot.
		Because then, what, the election, it seems kinda silly, but How does this play out when it comes to November?
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I have an idea.
		Remember Office of the President-Elect?
		I just googled this.
		They rolled out this gaslighting campaign and now it has an official definition.
		The President-Elect of the United States is the candidate who has presumptively won the United States presidential election and is awaiting inauguration to become President.
		They will just say he's the falsely taken off the ballot President of the United States Well, no, what'll happen is Democrat corporate press sources will say Biden won.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Here's the thing.
		If every single media outlet in this country declares a presidential victor, that person's the president.
		End of story.
		Because it's the confident popular narrative.
		As media bifurcates, If, at the end of this year, we see CNN that gets, what, a couple hundred thousand in their ratings, and only 80,000 in the key demo?
		When they come out and they say, Joe Biden wins!
		And then, all the alternative outlets and podcasts are like, no, Trump won.
		Then what happens?
		So, what we need.
		Here's my advice to every single Trump supporter.
		What you need to do right now is start asking how you get access to the tabulation data the same way CNN does.
		How does CNN get the numbers reported to them?
		Get the numbers reported to your news outlet.
		Daily Caller, Daily Wire.
		How about we watch the Daily Wire for their election tabulations and not Fox News or CNN?
		Because when it came to calling Arizona, everyone was complaining in 2020 because why did Fox News call it so early?
		We're still awaiting a lot of information and a lot of data.
		Okay, well imagine if As all this information's coming in, you have the Daily Wire, Crowder, even Joe Rogan, who knows, all these independent outlets, media outlets, and they all say, it does not look conclusive, we're still awaiting a potential two or three percent, we don't know who's going to win this state.
		Then all the corporate press calls it for Joe Biden, then a point goes in favor of Trump, so everyone else calls it for Trump.
unidentified		Then what?
unidentified		Then what?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's going to be real interesting.
		Joe Biden's going to have 30 million votes.
		Donald Trump's going to have 30 million votes because they're only going to be on the ballots in the states where the states already support Trump or Biden.
		What's going to be really interesting is if a swing state tries taking Trump off.
		Now Maine is the first step because Maine has Trump won one electoral vote from Maine in 2020.
		Right.
		So if they take him off the ballot, which they did, That's one electoral vote taken from Donald Trump already.
unidentified		Could make a difference.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, definitely.
		I think Thomas Massey tweeted this already, so I think a potential scenario.
		He said, to these states that are doing this, you realize the House is going to be the group that determines whether or not we accept these state tabulations.
		So I'm curious, Rep Mooney, I'm going to be very, very careful with this one.
		So I'm going to pull up what Massey actually tweeted.
		So that we can, uh, let's see.
		Uh, GOP rep warns House's final say over election after states deem Trump ineligible for ballots.
		So let's get rid of this little video here.
		Thomas Massey issued a warning to states moving to keep former President Trump off the ballot, saying Maine, Colorado, and other states that might try to bureaucratically deny ballot access to any Republican nominee should remember the U.S.
		House of Representatives is the ultimate arbiter of whether to certify electors from those states.
		Would you vote to certify a state that arbitrarily removed Donald Trump from the ballot?
unidentified		No, I don't see how you could.
		And that's a good warning that Massey said.
		Now, Republicans would have to maintain control, because the Democrats, I think if they took over Congress, would certainly certify those states and not reject it.
		So, he's presuming, with our four-seat majority, you know...
		But you mean how I would vote, you know, but if we want to effectively, that's actually a very good warning, because we went through this, of course, last cycle as well, where the states do have to certify yes or no.
		So if you take a state who threw somebody off the ballot, the leading candidate for president off the ballot, without any justification, which would be the case, I don't see how you could vote to certify that state.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And then neither candidate reaches 270 electoral votes?
unidentified		Well, I mean, his are thrown out.
		So, yeah, well, then the Congress, then there's other provisions in the Constitution where there has to be, there's a way to certify them.
		There's a determination that can be made to certify them.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So let's say that Colorado won't get counted.
		We now have, we have this story from scnr.com, Illinois voters file petition to remove Trump from 2024 ballot.
		So Illinois is a potential.
		Let's say Illinois... Did you say voters?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Voters?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, well all of these, it's not, so in Maine it was actually a petition from voters.
		And then the Secretary of State said, OK, I agree and got rid of it.
		So let's say Illinois moves to remove Trump.
		And they do.
		Illinois was going blue.
		Nobody expected to go red.
		But that's 19 electoral votes that Joe Biden loses.
		So let me ask you this.
		If Illinois removes Donald Trump.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But Illinois, come on, it's a blue state, it's not gonna go red.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Would you still say you wouldn't vote to certify?
unidentified		I don't think I would, you know.
unidentified		I think... I wouldn't.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But I'm not in Congress.
unidentified		Yeah, I think it gets kicked back.
		The Secretary of State's the one who gives the certificate, and the state legislature's supposed to oversee it.
		State legislators have generally deferred that to the Secretary of State and that was sort of the issue So I think there's a role for the state legislators here as well So, you know depending on what state they're going after if a state legislator Legislature wanted to come in and send a group of electors if you say the federal government rejects say we did reject the state's electors and I think the state legislatures of that state may have the opportunity to send a send electors in and it could be resolved that way potentially and This could be wild.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		If nobody hits 270, it goes to a contingent election.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And then it's House delegations that each get a vote, and Trump would win.
unidentified		Yeah, that's true.
unidentified		Goes to the House.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And then what does... I mean, can you imagine what the cities of the United States would look like if that's how Trump won?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I gotta be honest, I don't care what they'd look like.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know why?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it's their own fault.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't live there.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And they're Democrat strongholds, so if they tear themselves apart over themselves, like, okay, good luck, guys.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, I'm worried about the swing back.
		There's already a lot of things on the right that I don't like to see.
		There's a lot of people talking about Christian nationalism and Christian prince stuff.
		There's this dude, Richard Wolff, that's written a book about nationalism and stuff, and it's kind of ugly.
		Look, I'm an atheist, well, I'm an agnostic, and I'm not really interested in living by someone else's religion.
		Like, my hope is that we don't have to go far to the other side.
		And that's what happens when communists, or, you know, when the left gets too powerful, the right comes in and they start shoving boots in people's asses.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So we end up with the United States fracturing into two countries.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This would mean that certain blue areas are occupied and certain red areas occupied, but the northernmost areas would become the corporate states of the Uniparty, and the southern states would become the Abrahamic Kingdom of America.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I just have such a pro- like, I was- It's so hard to predict, you know, to guess what's going to happen anyways.
		Once you put something like that big into play, like the idea of the U.S.
		not having a clear president or, you know, consistent civil unrest that's, you know, beyond the stuff that you saw in 2020.
		I mean, there's a lot of There's a lot of, I give a lot of credibility to the argument that the international community might say, look, the United States has more nuclear weapons than anyone else.
		If their government is, you know, is not solid, then we should have the UN or whatever go and help support the United States federal government.
		End up with, you know, foreign troops on US soil.
		And again, I'm not saying that I'm predicting that, but it's like these things are well within possibility, you know?
unidentified		So...
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Can't hear you.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Can't hear you, bro.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		You guys are going to love this.
		I don't know if Tim wants to see this.
		What is it?
		What you're doing on the map.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh.
		I'm just calculating what's going on here in these United States based on the polling data that I've received.
		We're just going to go ahead and make our predictions as to what's going to happen here in 2024.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		I've just been doing this in the background.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Just while you guys are talking, I'm going over the voting data over here and it's looking pretty good.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Bring that bad boy up.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Not going to have any problems at all in the next election, as that turns out.
		And it's looking good.
		Democrats with one.
		Republicans with 537 electoral votes.
		That looks like, I guess I would call that a slight win for Donald Trump.
unidentified		2024.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Look at this.
		This map proves it.
		This map.
unidentified		It's a mudslide.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Proof!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's common, ladies and gentlemen.
unidentified		States do change over time.
unidentified		California used to be very Republican.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And you know why it's not anymore?
		Because Ronald Reagan signed a mass amnesty bill legalizing non-citizens who then engaged in chain migration, and in 1994, after Proposition 187 was ratified or codified, that would take away access to public goods for non-citizens, the family members of these non-citizens, their children, are now in revolt Over how their non-citizen family members would lose access to public services, and the protests resulted in a major swing towards the Democrats, which California has never recovered from.
		So, you know, a lot of people like to point out, well, there weren't so many illegal immigrants when Ronald Reagan enacted those reforms.
		The fascinating thing is, let's say you live in a big house, and it's you, let's say you've got 10,000 square feet, or let's just say 10 bedrooms, and you share it with one person.
		And then one day, that one person lets in his buddy.
		And you say, hey man, you can't let your friend in here.
		He can't live here.
		He's gotta pay rent.
		You're like, oh, come on, man.
		It's fine if he lives here.
		He's not on the lease!
		He's on the lease, he's gonna get us in trouble.
		And plus, we paid the security deposit already.
		Dude, come on.
		He refuses to kick him out.
		You guys keep fighting about it.
		You don't know what to do.
		The cops are like, we're not getting involved.
		Eventually, he says, I'll cut a deal with you.
		You let him live here.
		I'll do the dishes.
		And you go, fine.
		Now what happens?
		That dude invites his buddy over.
		And you go, dude, no, you can't bring your friend in.
		And they go, two against one, we win.
		And now they vote, nope, everybody who wants John to stay here, everyone raise their hand.
		Now two guys vote against you, one guy.
		And now there's three of them.
		And then they invite two more of their friends.
		And they say, five against one.
		Six against one, seven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, and that's what happens in California.
		I was reading on how California turned from red to blue.
		It was not reliably a deep conservative state.
		It had a Democrat state legislature.
		It was fairly progressive, but Republicans were fairly dominant until...
		They invited a whole bunch of people in, gave them citizenship, and those people had more ties to external communities than internal communities.
		So when it came to the question of, should we give public goods and services to people who are not citizens, there was a large percentage of the population that was in favor because they had a larger tie to a non-citizen community than a citizen community.
		And it's fairly obvious.
		Why is Joe Biden ripping open the southern border?
		Because in 10 years, the same thing will happen.
		You invite people in, grant them amnesty, they will vote against you and they will vote to take your stuff.
		I'm for immigration. It's got to be legal immigration.
		There's got to be... you take a test, you learn about America, you learn about our values, our court systems,
		and then you adhere to and abide by that and assimilate into American culture, and we welcome you.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You should have to want to become an American.
		Yep.
		I don't understand. That's... again, this is something that when I was younger that was kind of a given.
		But now, it's like, you know, come to the United States and live in this space, but you don't have to become an
		American.
		That's something I don't understand.
		You should want to assimilate to the values of the country that you're living in.
		You can still be whatever, you know, you can still have whatever traditions or whatever.
		That's one of the great things about the United States is you're free to live your life however you want, but you just have to allow other people to live and you have to understand that the United States government isn't here to provide for you.
		Most immigrants are people that come in and want to work hard, right?
		You know, but like there are too many That come in and just stay under the radar and then like chain migration and stuff.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So it's not even necessarily about chain migration, which is a big issue.
		And I think we should make that illegal.
		People, you can sponsor non-citizens to come into this country.
		It means you are legally responsible for their financial state and their debts.
		For a certain amount of time.
		So this is a component of how chain migration happens.
		What we're seeing with Chinese birth tourism, a Chinese woman will fly to the United States with a multi-month visa, give birth to a kid who is now a Chinese national and American citizen.
		When that kid turns 18, he can sponsor his family from China so that they can come and live in the United States legally, and then the child assumes the legal responsibility.
		We should get rid of all that.
		But the issue is actually really simple for people to understand what's going on.
		If your parents are from the United States, and your grandparents are from the United States, your cousins, your brothers, your sisters are from the United States, maybe you're from Chicago, and your cousins live in Dubuque, and your grandparents are from Westchester, PA, and they moved to Illinois and were young, and your dad's family is from Utah, when you are thinking of how you can vote to protect your family, your future, your values, your traditions, and everything you believe in, You are worried mostly about the United States.
		But if you come to the United States as someone seeking a job, we don't need to speculate as to what you do.
		They make money at their jobs and send that money back to their home country.
		When it comes to do or die, the voting pattern will be to protect their families.
		The only issue is, they're not voting in the interest of Colorado, they're voting in the interest of Honduras.
		Now, I get it.
		I got no disdain for somebody who wants to support their family.
		And I've got no disdain for somebody who wants to live in the United States.
		The issue is, when you have completely unfettered, flooded invasion on the border, 10,000 plus people per day, the system cannot sustain that.
		And we are going to end up with a massive percentage of the population that will absolutely vote to strip your assets and send them to foreign countries.
		And that's probably why it's been happening for a long time.
		So, you know what I think we need to do?
		Unlike Donald Trump, largest deportation campaign we've seen for all of the illegal immigrants and non-citizens.
		Legal residents, legal immigrants have my utmost respect, and I say we give them a hand.
		We clap for them.
		You came here, you did it right, you respected us, we respect you, and we want you to have opportunity.
		And my view is, I agree with Vivek, H-1Bs.
		You know, Hannah Clare and I were arguing this other day, I'm a big fan of H-1Bs.
		But they have to be legitimate.
		Meaning, If I cannot hire someone in the United States because the talent does not exist, then I say, I want to get a visa for this person who's from the UK or from India or from wherever and bring them to the United States.
		The U.S.
		then begins stripping away the high-value assets and labor force from other countries, strengthening our economy, our industry.
		At the same time, we should be restricting lower-level immigration severely because we've got way too many young people who can't find jobs.
		If we allow all of these non-citizens, these illegal immigrants, to come across the border, and then they say, oh, but look, they need work, they need jobs.
		Yeah, well, 16-year-old kid who needs a summer job needs a job too.
		You say, low-skill waiver who wants someone to work in a meat processing plant, yeah, I got a 16-year-old kid who can do that job and wants to do that job, and he's happy to make 15 bucks an hour doing it.
		Donald Trump had a raid on several meat processing plants in the South when he was president.
		It resulted in like 600 deportations.
		All these liberals are arguing, nobody would do these jobs!
		They had no choice but to bring in illegal immigrants.
		When journalists went down to the hiring fairs these companies had after, I think the companies should have been shut down by force, by the government, for breaking the law.
		But when they go down there, what do they find?
		A bunch of American citizens applying for jobs.
		And they went and they asked this one guy, why are you applying for a job at this plant?
		Nobody wants these jobs.
		He goes, are you kidding?
		Pays 14 bucks an hour.
		That's two bucks more an hour than I was getting my other job.
		Yeah, Americans will take these jobs.
		The wages will increase.
		But when I look at this stuff, I'm so pissed off because Joe Biden is in violation of the Constitution and he is aiding and abetting criminal activity.
		You know what?
		Let me show you the proof.
		Someone tweeted this earlier.
		It's from August 12, 2021.
		From the United States Attorney's Office, Southern District of Texas.
		Young soldiers admit to transporting undocumented citizens.
		My stars and garters.
		You mean, if you transport non-citizens, you are breaking the law?
		I got questions for the Biden administration, but more importantly, let me say this as clearly as I can.
		To each and every one of you border patrol officers and law enforcement officials for the federal government who are taking orders from your higher-ups telling you to transport non-citizens, illegal immigrants, to all those crew of Swift Air, private airlines, I will not forget, nor will anyone who's watched this show, nor will any politician we petition, We will never forget that under our laws, you are committing crimes.
		And you think simply because it's ubiquitous, you will get away with it.
		I assure you, you will not.
		If you wear a badge and you are instructed to break the law and you break the law, we will not forget.
	This is from Justice.gov.
	2021, two military men stationed at Fort Hood have entered guilty pleas to conspiring to transport undocumented aliens within the United States, announced acting U.S.
	Attorney Jennifer B. Lowry.
	Now, how is it that three years ago, two and a half years ago, It is a criminal offense to plead guilty to if you're transporting undocumented aliens in this country.
	But now, how many law enforcement officials, government contractors, and all you employees of Swift Air are doing just this without a care in the world?
	I hope, I beg, and I pray that when Donald Trump is elected, he arrests each and every one of you because you are breaking the law.
	And simply because you all did it with your friends doesn't mean you get away with it.
	When I saw this, I was pissed.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I have no problem with any of the quote-unquote destruction that Donald Trump is talking about.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And in fact, I don't think that Donald Trump will go far enough if he actually does get elected.
unidentified		Maybe we'll forget, even Obama, when he was president, deported hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of illegal immigrants.
unidentified		Obama himself enforced that law.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He was the deporter-in-chief.
unidentified		The phenomena we're seeing now with Joe Biden, with the poorest border, and taking the dollars that taxpayers give to the border security to use it to bring them in, this is actually a new phenomena, even for Democrats.
		Even for Obama.
		And you can't really say, well, I oppose this.
		They say, oh, you hate, you hate, they attack you, you hate this, you hate that.
		But Obama did it.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, because he used to understand that if you had taxes, you're asking for, like, taxes from a tax base, you have to have a closed system.
		You can't just open it up to the world and then give it to everybody.
		You can't, there's no way you're going to be able to foot that bill.
		It's ridiculous.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There was a CBP guy who pulled up in his truck to the razor wire in Texas and saw illegal immigrants trying to enter and he said, turn around now.
		He's under investigation.
		They're putting they're getting him in trouble for it.
		He's doing his job.
		He's enforcing the law.
		That's a good man.
		And the Biden administration expects you to break the law.
		But I just I just I'm gonna read this for you.
		They say these men face up to 10 years in prison and a possible $250,000 maximum fine.
		When I was in Chicago over Christmas, we had a shuttle driver bringing us to our we are connecting to what do we fly back on we flew on American, maybe?
		I can't remember.
		And this shuttle bus driver said that he, they also did, they serviced private planes, jets.
		So they got word the Blackhawks were coming.
		Chicago Blackhawks, ooh, big hockey fans.
		And a 737 pulls up, full of passengers.
		They pull their car up, open the forward cargo on the belly of the plane, three garbage bags.
		And they were like, what is this?
		And they load the garbage bags onto their car.
		And they were like, they shrug.
		And then they found out the plane was transporting illegal immigrants into Chicago.
		I asked him, I was like, he said, they lied to us.
		They told us it was the Blackhawks.
		And I said, did they lie to you because you would not have served illegal immigrants had you known that's what they asked you to do?
		And he goes, yep.
		So the only way to get these crew members to actually facilitate these planes is to trick them into doing it.
		Because that's a good guy.
		He was telling me, I would not have done that if they didn't trick me.
		I say, you sir are a victim.
		They tricked you.
		But all these guys, they know what they're doing.
		And I'm just, I beg and I pray, man.
		I want Donald Trump to get in.
		I don't think he'll do it.
		Because it's important to point out, Trump is not a dictator.
		He never was and he won't be.
		Trump's going to go in there and he's going to say, look, we love our men and women in uniform.
		We're not going to hold it against them.
		We're going to go for the leadership.
		I get so many conservatives in here being like, I'm not going to blame the police for what they did.
		I'm going to blame the higher ups.
		And I'm like, Oh no, if it were me, I'd go to each and every, every individual.
		And I would say, sir, you can put on the chains on your ankles right now.
		I'll put you in the jumpsuit.
		You committed this crime.
		I don't care if, if a vision came to you in your sleep of a prophet telling you to commit the crime.
		I don't care if your mother told you to do it.
		I don't care if Joe Biden told you to do it.
		You broke the law, you broke the law.
		If Joe Biden says go rob a bank, you robbed a bank.
		But these people, I'm worried they'll get away with it.
		And then this is what happens.
		Are we supposed to forget?
		Ten years from now, we'll just forget that this happened.
		I hope not.
		All right, it's been a good show, everybody.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		What do you do when the president says to do something like that?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I mean, is that... Look, I'll give it the big ask.
		I don't expect Donald Trump to start locking up all of our law enforcement.
		We need law enforcement.
		But these people should have a reckoning of some sort.
		I think they should get their pensions stripped from them or something like that.
		What'll really end up happening is, I will say something like, Donald Trump must arrest anyone who committed these crimes, and then Trump will say, well, we're not gonna do that, it's too far, but we will do, and then we'll get something out of it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The scary thing is, what if, what if, like, I mean, his entire first, you know, first term, the first, for the whole four years, the FBI, or at least half the FBI, was working, actively working against him, subverting the president.
		Like, it's legitimate To fire all those people.
		And the idea that it's not legitimate to fire the people that are, like, we should charge those people.
		We should investigate, look for the people that were actually trying to subvert the directives of the Commander-in-Chief, the Fed, you know, the Director of the Justice Department, you know, the President, the Executive.
		He's in charge of the whole thing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Human smuggling.
		That's what the Justice.gov website calls it.
		Human smugglers.
unidentified		There's been a, I guess, even among some of the least likely to fight colleagues of mine that are Republicans, a push lately to not fund anything unless we get border enforcement and enforce our immigration laws.
		Because it is, you know, that obvious to the American people.
		Even some Democrats have been breaking.
		We've had a few votes where on the spending bills we said this is contingent upon enforcing immigration laws, which is clearly not happening.
		And some Democrats have started to vote with us on this.
		So I hear what Tim's saying, obviously very passionate.
		American people see that too.
		But it isn't just President Biden.
		Frankly, the voters gave us a Republican House of Representatives, which has the power of the purse.
		And we fund this with your tax dollars.
		We don't have to do that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is a story that we covered quite a bit.
		We showed this to Marianne Williamson, October 20th, 2021.
		More migrant children being flown to New York.
		But what happens to them after they arrive?
		You know, I hope that when Donald Trump gets elected, his attorney general will order an investigation who will find the pilots of these planes and put them in prison for 10 years.
		And I hope the pilots of these planes hear what I'm saying right now, and I hope you know every opportunity I get to speak to people who are seeking these positions when I see them.
		Whoever it may turn out to be, I will be saying to them, when you are in the White House, I want to see the people who flew these planes in shackles.
		I want to see them crying on television after a perp walk, saying, I'm so sorry, I was trafficking children into this country illegally.
		They think because they work for a corporation, they're shielded.
		I want all of those people to know, I will do everything in my power to advocate you spend your life behind bars.
		I'm so sick of the banality of evil.
		Of people who work for these companies who facilitate crimes and think because Joe Biden is president and because the president is corrupt, you will get away with it.
		You're not just doing your job, you're breaking the law.
		And we're going to enforce the law the way the law was written.
		I'm just sick of it, man.
		It's plain as day right in front of us.
		We've covered these stories so many times.
		There was, uh, who was it?
		There was some reps from out of Tennessee.
		The Biden administration was taking illegal immigrants from the border, putting them on planes and flying them at two in the morning to Tennessee.
		Well, if that's a crime that two men were pleading guilty to moving, transporting undocumented aliens, the Biden administration is ordering people to do it.
		That's too bad for you guys.
		You're the one.
		We got to lock them up.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Lock them all up.
		There should be massive, massive investigations.
		Massive amounts of investigations.
		I truly believe that you can just have the FBI investigate the federal government, and they'd be busy for a decade.
		They'd probably never get done.
		Because as they investigate, there's going to be more.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, now means investigating the federal bureaus.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Or we could just get rid of them.
		I mean, look, if you want to get rid of, you know, cabinet-level bureaucracies, everyone that watches the show a lot knows how I feel about that.
		Get them out of there.
		Fire people.
		Unemployment.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's the pedality of evil, man.
		It's the people who sell their souls to the devil.
		It's the people who say, well, you know what, I'm going to do it anyway.
		We can't live that way.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		But not only that, part of this does fall on, and it doesn't fall on to the viewers of the show, but part of it does fall on to the people of America because people don't know anything about the way that our government works.
		So they can't even know what they should be voting for or what, you know, what makes sense for them to be voting for.
		And I mean, I personally feel like people look at voting like praying.
		It's like, oh, if I go over there and I vote for this thing, then, you know, hopefully I'll get it.
		But voting never turns out that way.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We got a super chat.
		Kako says, I'm a major U.S.
		airline pilot and was furious when I found out we had illegals on our flights.
		I hear you, but they don't tell us.
		Good, sir.
		I am not speaking of you.
		You, I believe, are a good man.
		If you're an airline pilot and they tell you, routine flight, have a good day, and you are not party to what's going on, then I think the simple thing is we look at the flight manifests.
		I think law enforcement should ask, what happened?
		Tell us what happened.
		You say, I'm just an airline pilot.
		I had no idea what was going on.
		And we say, all right, man, thank you so much for helping assist in figuring out who was facilitating this stuff.
		And that's it, end of story.
		And then I'm specifically referring to there are private airlines So, the guy told me in Chicago it was Swift Air, and a lot of people have said it's Swift Air.
		I don't know if that's true, but that's what the guy said.
		Yeah, there's no way a private pilot doesn't know what he's doing.
		When the plane is loaded up with nothing but illegal immigrants all carrying those little baggies or whatever, yeah, you can be like, guy, I'm not flying this plane, are you nuts?
		That's illegal!
		You know, I just pulled up here from justice.gov.
		Let me just make sure it's very, very clear to each and every one of you, because we got at least one airline pilot here.
		If you transport undocumented aliens, you can go to prison for up to 10 years.
		So if you are sitting in that pilot seat, and you see them boarding your plane, and they don't have tickets with names on them because that's already been what's reported, oh boy!
		If you think you're not going to get in trouble for that, I got a bridge to sell you!
		You're gonna have to get off and be like, I'm not flying a plane with people who don't have tickets.
		This is illegal.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		That's pretty insane.
		Do they go through security and all that stuff?
		It's hard not to get on a plane in the first place.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They had, the tickets had no name given.
		And they're all carrying these packets.
		And there are people, now if you're a gate agent, I'm sorry dude, I worked for American Eagle Airlines, which is American Airlines Regional.
		I loaded planes.
		Did not work gate.
		Gate people take your tickets and they scan them.
		If someone walks up to you with a ticket and there's no name on it, you should be like, I'm sorry, sir, you can't get on this plane.
unidentified		I didn't know you could do that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You can't.
		James O'Keefe tries to fly, and he's got four S's on his ticket, and he gets pulled aside for a random screening.
		But these illegal immigrants are being trafficked, and they have tickets with no names on them.
		And the gate agents are like, what do I care?
		I'm getting paid, baby!
		Well, I hope you get locked up, too.
		And look, I'm sorry, I'm gonna say this.
		To the pilot, you find out after the fact you're on a plane with illegal immigrants and you didn't know?
		I can respect you did not know.
		I'm not trying to be unreasonable.
		The gate agents know for a fact.
		The gate agents have to let them through.
		Yeah, all of them should go to jail.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		What if you find out afterwards?
		That's like knowledge of a crime after the fact, right?
		Do you have to report that to somebody?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Uh, I don't know that you go to jail because you may have witnessed a crime you're unsure of and didn't report it.
		I mean, that'd be crazy, like, you see a guy leaving a bank with a burlap bag or whatever, and you're like, well, it's none of my business, and they're like, you should've reported, you're going to jail, and oh, come on, like, you don't know what's going on.
		So I'm not gonna blame, in this instance, like, a pilot who's sitting in his chair ready to take off, and he gets like, you have this X-many passengers, and he goes, you got it, and then later on, they're like, there were illegal immigrants there, and I'm like, I had no idea, I can respect that.
		Gate agents all know, though.
		Illegal immigrant walks up with their packet and their ticket.
		Yeah, that's pretty obvious.
		This is crazy.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You and I both know that gate agents are frequently entirely disinterested in what's going on around them.
		I mean, they're not particularly, you know, they're not really paying attention.
		They're kind of just moving people through.
		Doing their jobs.
		Yeah.
unidentified		Even if they did report it, the person they're reporting to is the person saying to do it anyway.
unidentified		I mean, they should report it, but the person, they're gonna ignore it, but at least they'll be on record that they reported it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You'd think you'd go to TSA and be like, hey, you know, TSA, blah, blah, blah, and TSA apparently would be like, oh, that's fine with us.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Someone chatted, Tim fell off the fence.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But I gotta tell you guys, if the sides of the fence are we enforce our laws or we don't, We got big problems.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The fact that we have laws that we do and do not enforce, that's a massive problem.
		If you don't know what to expect from the government, that puts everybody in a position where they're constantly anxious about what the government is going to do.
		And also, that's part of how it was possible for authoritarian regimes to start turning To start turning family members in and that's, again, that's what it was.
		It wasn't just the secret police.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Everyone just lies to each other because no one actually knows what the truth is anymore.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		And then you're just kind of all screwed.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And you hear people talk about a low trust society versus a high trust society.
		I mean, it's a nightmare living in a low trust society.
		And our society is degrading because of things like the government doesn't equally, you know, enforce the law.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So Ashley St.
		Clair posted this video December 19th.
		And she says, my Delta flight from Phoenix appears to be flying migrants who crossed the border and are being shipped to New York.
		When I asked a Delta representative if this was the case, his response was, what does it matter?
		They're humans too.
		Lock them up.
		It is insane to me that the gate agents allow people onto the plane with no name.
		What if one of these planes... We just had a... What was it?
		We actually have this tweet, I think, from Ashley and Claire.
		Let's pull up this story.
		Ashley St.
		Clair tweeted, Hey United!
		On July 29th the United plane was nearly totaled after a hard landing.
		Who was flying that aircraft?
		Was the co-pilot a former flight attendant who was fired and then rehired through United's diversity program despite being on a list to not return to United?
		Am I correct this individual failed multiple trainings including simulator training?
		Am I also correct that the United has covered up this diversity disaster and many others?
		Was the number two at the Denver Hiring Center also on boarded through DEI?
		Did she or did she not change fail grades for DEI hires because it makes the numbers look bad?
		Did the instructor who failed this co-pilot ask corporate why they passed him?
		Elon Musk responds, if this is true, this puts a lot of lives at risk.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It is true.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		My friends, if there are employees of airlines who are allowing people onto planes without
		giving their names.
		You thought 9-11 was bad?
		We knew the names of those guys.
		Now they're letting hundreds, if not thousands, every day, and they have no idea who they are.
		And so when I hear something about a plane nearly being totaled to a hard landing, I get freaked out.
		Am I going to board a plane Where there are people on it that did not pass security and we don't know who they are?
unidentified		And then, what happens if they hijack the plane?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There's no security screen, there's no vetting of these individuals.
		I had to go, I have TSA pre, so I had to go for a meeting, where I give all my information, bring my ID cards, and then I get to keep my shoes on when I go through security.
		When I travel, my friends, they had to take their shoes off.
		These people don't even have to give their names.
		That's insane.
		But I think it goes to show you, I, you know, Marjorie Taylor Greene has talked about national divorce.
		You do not have a country if laws are being broken en masse to the tune of 10,000 plus every day, and it's not just 10,000 laws.
		Each of these individuals who illegally cross the border are breaking a multitude of laws.
		Each of the employees of these airlines, these bus charters, and these private charters, every one of those employees are breaking the law too.
		At this point, laws are basically not being enforced at all in this country, only selectively against the political opponents of uniparty establishment figures.
		I don't know how you have an argument that the United States exists.
unidentified		Well, back to the immigration, like, for people who don't want to enforce immigration laws, you've got to ask the question, should we have any immigration laws at all?
		If we have any laws, no matter what they are, any laws at all, at some point if it's broken, will you deport anybody?
		And, you know, for those who say it's heartless, like the woman said, there are people too, and stuff like that, the gate attendant who said to the lady, oh, there are people too, does she believe in enforcing any laws related to immigration, or can anyone come here?
		500 billion Chinese can arrive tomorrow, well, there are people too!
		Let them all in!
		So it's either you have a law and you enforce it, or you don't.
		And enforcing any laws, all is uncomfortable.
		And just to take immigration away from a second, say a man commits a robbery, gets caught, gets sentenced to five years in jail.
		That man may have a five-year-old child at home who doesn't want his daddy to go to jail, but daddy broke the law.
		So therefore you have to enforce it.
		And yes, innocent people that the five-year-old child loses his father for five years because the father robbed the store.
		So it's not an easier, comfortable thing to do, always, to enforce the law.
		But either we have the rule of law, or we don't.
		Whether you like it or not, whether it's comfortable or not, whether you think it's humane or not.
		Do you believe in actually enforcing laws?
		Any laws?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They don't.
		The left doesn't.
		There's a video going viral right now of a man being arrested because he jumped a turnstile in the New York metro.
		And they're all saying, oh my god, why are the police doing this to this man?
		And I'm like, because he broke the law.
		And they're like, but why are they being so violent?
		Because he's resisting arrest and fighting with them.
		They should let him go.
		That's ridiculous.
		No, they should enforce the law.
unidentified		Yeah, there's no law.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But they don't want the law enforced.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		No.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And if they get their way, these leftists, then you may as well not own land.
		You may as well not have a job.
		They're gonna come into your house, they're gonna take whatever they want, and no one's gonna enforce the law.
		That's the world they live in.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's the desire.
		There are people on the left that think that even owning property is somehow oppressive.
		So the idea that you own anything is offensive to them.
		But when you're talking about the way that they behave when it comes to enforcing the law, this is something that I harp on again.
		There's this guy in the 60s called Herbert Marcuse that wrote up a paper called Oppressive tolerance and essentially the argument he made in the paper was that if you are on the left You should forgive whatever people on the left are doing up to and including violence And if you are if you are on the left and you're dealing with someone on the right, then they should be silenced they should be You know, they should be censored as much as possible up to and including thought if possible and
		So, you can't have a society where half the society believes that the other half of the society shouldn't have the ability to express themselves, to talk, any of their ideas must be shouted down, and that's this impulse we see constantly on the left.
		And it's something that is a big problem because we've got a society that doesn't even listen to, you know, we constantly are bickering and we don't hear each other out.
		And there's been studies that people in the center and on the right know and understand the arguments from the people on the left.
		The people on the left straight up are so obsessed with the ideology, they just think if you don't think like us, you must be evil.
		That's why it's always bigotry, always some kind of moral failing.
unidentified		Frederick Bastiat, you know, the book Legal Plunder, where if you go and take somebody's money and rob it from their house, you're going to jail.
		But if you pass a set of laws to create a tax system, and you take 70% of what they earn, it's legal all of a sudden, right?
		So that's what's called legal plunder.
		And it seems like a whole other thing, is to just not enforce laws that people may not like, selectively speaking, based on situations, like someone not paying to go into the metro system, jumping over the metro line.
		you know, other... and they have this debate in cities whether you enforce loitering,
		you know, smaller, like throwing rocks through windows.
		Some cities have just broken window. They just choose not to enforce those
		whatsoever, which obviously leads to greater and worse crimes. Yeah, the idea
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		that you can allow some crimes to go unpunished or whatever, just be like, oh
		well this is a crime but we're gonna ignore it.
		You can't do that because that degrades the law overall.
		There should probably be significantly fewer laws in most major cities, right?
		Essentially, the government can do whatever they want, whenever they want.
		They've got enough laws where They can just say, okay, well, you broke this law, so we started the interaction, et cetera, et cetera.
		That being said, it doesn't mean that the government should have interactions with you all the time.
		There should be a limit to the amount that the government is gonna be involved with you, and it certainly shouldn't be deciding, oh, we're not gonna enforce this law for you, but this guy over here, we're going to.
		Look at the guy, that Daniel Penney guy, the guy that ended up accidentally killing a guy.
		You know, he wasn't the only guy that was trying to stop him, you know, and there were there have been other people that have done significantly worse crimes, you know, that that aren't being held on $200,000 bond or whatever, you know, and and I think that that's that's the The inconsistency and the insecurity of the population is the goal, because then you're too afraid to break the rules, or even get close to breaking the rules.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		It's like, by any means necessary, it becomes a thing.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		It's like, it's always been by any means necessary, and then it just, everything falls, it kind of makes sense once you look at it and realize that's like the underlying message behind it all.
unidentified		Mm-hmm.
unidentified		Yeah Gotta have equal enforcement of the law.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		It's just a yeah, it's like how how little are we asking here?
unidentified		You know, and you talk about it.
		They always call conservatives names like racists and stuff.
		They're the ones selectively enforcing the law We're just saying enforce the law the same regardless of any ethnicity race everything just be equal to everyone That's that's white supremacy That's what they call it!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's why Vivek said he wouldn't condemn it, because he knows what they're saying is colorblindness is white supremacy.
		What the woke left want is racial segregation.
		So that's what they've actually been implementing across the country, and then they use these code words to trick you and to make you bend the knee.
unidentified		I think I find that at least as far as people running for office, there's a great fear of being called a name like a racist or a hater of any particular person or group of people.
		And the fear of being called a name is no excuse not to do the right thing.
		Secure the border, you know, enforce immigration laws.
		Doesn't mean you don't love everyone.
		Sure, you can love everyone.
		I just think we should actually enforce the laws of our country, or we have no laws in this country.
		And those who want lawlessness and selective enforcement are the ones who are actually picking and choosing, government picking and choosing winners and losers based on ethnicity and things like that.
		Just like they want to pick the winners and losers based on the energy.
		You know, coal, let's go after coal and it's got to be all solar panels.
		Government's picking winners and losers and abusing their powers all over the place.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, Ashley St.
		St. Clair is who tweeted, I'm in possession of a legitimate major airline boarding passes
		for migrants that quite literally have the name printed as quote, no name given.
		Incredibly difficult to post these without putting the insiders at risk working on it.
		This will continue to unfold over the coming weeks, but I can confirm these are legitimate
		boarding passes.
		I'm at a loss for words for what I am verifying.
		Thank you to everybody reaching out.
		So if you guys choose not to believe it, you don't think Ashley St. Clair.
		Clair is on the level, I think she is on the level.
		I know her personally, and I think she is very honest, and I don't think she would lie about this.
		That being said, I look forward to the release of these images.
		You should be able to, in some way, release them, but it is true.
		Because whoever printed them out, the companies will know who printed them out.
		It is also true that I will say to Ashley and to those insiders, you must be brave and you need to stop working for a company that is breaking the law and blow the whistle before you're the one who ends up in prison.
unidentified		You know, we need more everyday American heroes like that in this country.
		We've got a woman in Hardee County, West Virginia, who the EPA declared a trickle of water was a river and was requiring her farm to go over all sorts of EPA regulations.
		This is when I first elected.
		And she sued with the support of the American Farm Bureau, sued all the way to the Supreme Court and won.
		Won the case.
		They offered her settlements along the way, but she said, no, I'm not going to settle because this isn't just for me and my farm, it's for all farmers.
		And everyday American heroes can do this and need to stand up, and I would applaud anybody that would, under a variety of circumstances, you know, whistleblowers who uncover corruption and show what's actually happening, because there's a lot of misinformation, a lot of hiding what's happening.
		The left wants to do things and not let you know, do it in secret.
		Now the saying in politics, sunlight is the best disinfectant.
		And I love that saying and you know we have of course control in the house now and I do applaud my good friends Jim Jordan and James Comer who run those committees for bringing out whistleblowers who are talking about corruption and covered up evidence from the left and the unfair application of the law.
		This is important for our country that they whistleblow that and I think you know showing that makes a difference and you can lead to the investigations.
		We do have subpoena power now in the House, and what they've arrested Republicans for, now Hunter Biden won't come testify.
		So you have double, unequal application of the law there as far as committee hearings.
		So we really have to expose this stuff, and I think that's one of the things this show's about, and I appreciate that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, so let's just jump in a little bit before we go to Super Chats.
		What are your plans?
		What do you got coming up?
		You got some bells in front of you?
unidentified		Oh, I just brought stuff in case you wanted to ask.
		You know, we talk about the wokeism stuff.
		Well, let's go back to immigration.
		Right now, Mexico receives $60 million a year in economic development funds just for, you know, build some buildings from American taxpayers.
		Meanwhile, there's a porous border.
		Fentanyl's coming across that border.
		The president of Mexico, who's an out-and-out socialist and hates America, has said, oh, we don't even do that here.
		That's an American problem.
		You guys get yourselves under control.
		Insulted our country, yet we give them $60 million a year of taxpayer dollars.
		So I have a bill, House Resolution 3190, introduced by me, Congressman Alex Mooney, that says you get new economic development funds, Mexico.
		Until you certify you're not sending fentanyl across the country.
		That's just, you know, one thing that's not going to solve the whole immigration crisis, but think of the stupidity and the craziness of giving a country free tax dollars that's harming us in that way.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Here's a quick question.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Where does that number come from?
unidentified		House Resolution 3190.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Like, how does a resolution get a number?
unidentified		It's in order when you put it in.
unidentified		Oh, okay.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, you know, the House Resolution... Does it start at number 1 every year?
unidentified		Yeah, it starts at 1 every year.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, wow.
unidentified		House Resolution 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, actually, I had a House Resolution 5.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Does everybody race to get number 1?
unidentified		Well, the leadership controls that, so the Speaker of the House is going to decide.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Always gets number one.
unidentified		Yeah, one through ten, I think, is pretty much... It's always like, the Speaker of the House is cool.
		It's based on an issue that's important to the American people, like what we campaigned on.
		House Resolution 5 is called the Parents' Bill of Rights Act.
		All it says is what they're teaching your kids in school, parents have a right to know.
		It doesn't reform the whole system.
		It just says some school systems, believe it or not, in this country, would not let the parents know what they're being taught in the schools.
		Montgomery County, Maryland was trying to do that.
		And the guy who ran for governor of Virginia, McAuliffe, said parents should have no say in what's going on in their schools.
		So that just says right to know.
		You'd think it'd be an easy one.
		We did pass that one in the House, by the way.
		The Senate hasn't passed it.
		So as far as the numbers go, yeah, they're just, once you get past the first 10 or so, it's just when you put it in, it gets randomly assigned.
		Thousands of bills are put in every year.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		I mean, we have to go through all these, but I know we haven't talked about digital currencies.
		The White House is actually working on a federal digital currency program, like a national Biden-run digital currency program, which we've never authorized.
		That's something Congress has to authorize.
		They are so paranoid about Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, all that, because they can't control it.
		They can't control the American people if they have their own monetary currencies.
		It totally freaks them out.
		I mean, I've not seen the Democrats and the left as freaked out about anything since cryptocurrency came along.
		So anyway, my bill bans that because Joe Biden shouldn't even have a pilot program.
		We've not authorized a pilot program.
		We don't want your federal government controlling the currency and cryptocurrency and tracking all your purchases, gun purchases.
		You know, heck, in China they have good Good boy, bad boy credits, you know, for what kind of a citizen you are based on what the government tracks in your purchases.
		So I just brought some of this stuff in case it came up.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What about banning the implementation of social credit score systems?
unidentified		Yeah, well, we haven't gotten there yet, but that's kind of where they're going.
		They even have, one of my bills is a merchant category code that separately identifies firearm merchants or ammunition merchants, for other purposes.
		So you swipe your card when you buy some ammo, you want somebody keeping track of that?
		That's the type of stuff Biden is trying to push right now through the Department of Treasury.
		So we need to stop that, so we don't even get to passing a ban on good citizen credits.
		We just don't allow them to even keep track of that information.
		I mean, people are being freaked out by the information.
		Investment companies are being asked to tell how much of your investment goes to coal and oil and gas.
		Just give me the information.
		That's all.
		Why are they asking for that information?
		I mean, there's a reason they're asking for that information.
		They're going to do something with it eventually, and that's when you get to the credits or the oppression.
		And we have to stop that stuff and it tracks before it even gets further.
		And that's something I need my colleagues to be supportive of.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Do you feel like people are aware of that?
		And someone like Elizabeth Warren, she's for total control of the financial markets and stuff like that.
		I understand that.
		But do you feel like you have support from other people aside from the Freedom Caucus?
		Because I don't feel like the Republicans are all on the same team.
		And I don't think that there are Republicans that actually Maybe if they do understand things like cryptocurrency and stuff like that, I don't think that they see the danger.
		I mean, a lot of it I feel like you're dealing with boomers that have no idea and it doesn't make any sense to them because I'm fairly technically savvy and it took me a minute to understand exactly the ramifications of something like the Bitcoin network and the possibilities and stuff.
		How do you feel about the response you get from other people when you talk about things like social credit system that means that you couldn't leave your house and stuff?
unidentified		That unites Republicans, I'd say.
		I mean, even some Democrats may be with us on that.
		But, say, for the four years I was on the Financial Services Committee, I'm on it now.
		Jeb Henshling was chairman.
		When it came to the Democrats crying, screaming to regulate cryptocurrencies, and they were, every hearing they were yelling about it.
		We did absolutely nothing.
		No bills, nothing.
		We didn't have hearings on it.
		We just let the free market go.
		And if that's what people want to do, let them do it.
		And it actually thrived for a period of time.
		The first time they got to regulate the cryptocurrency market was on the first COVID bailout bill, one of these stupid, ridiculous, big omnibus, two trillion.
		And in there they slipped in the first ever regulation of cryptocurrency, and now they're coming after people.
		And all they're going to end up doing is sending it overseas.
		Yeah.
		They're just going to do it in some other country.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You can't.
		That's not something you can lock down.
		The way that cryptocurrency works, you can't.
		It just doesn't have the ability.
unidentified		The desire for control.
		And that's what this is all about.
		Do you have a right to make your own decision or does government make that decision for you?
		Even if it's a bad decision, what you eat, whether you have a donut, what you buy, where you go, you might make what kind of health care you may or may not want, whether you even want health care.
		Do you have the freedom to choose to not have health care?
		Or does government make you have health care?
		And there's the view among the left, which is mostly the Democrat party these days, they can decide for you.
		They'll make the decision for you.
		And that's true.
		And this is why cryptocurrency freaks them out.
		They lose total control.
		People can buy and trade on their own, and the government doesn't even know what's going on.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Do you have any, and this is a different subject, do you have an opinion on, or do you have an idea, or are you even aware of it, but I have concerns about Like, the big tech companies, obviously they track your data, and I don't think that they can do anything about it, because everything that happens in a computer, there's a log.
		It just automatically happens, right?
		Like, maybe they don't need to track the keystrokes on your particular device, but everything that happens in a computer, there's a log.
		Like, that's what happens, I get it.
		But, that means that all of that information is saved and it's also subpoena-able.
		So James Lindsay again has talked about your data should be your own and it shouldn't be something that the big data companies are just scraping all the data they can and then profiting off of it.
		I think that, I don't know how you would do it, but I have a problem with the federal government basically having everything you do At their fingertips, all they need to do is go and talk to the company to get it.
		Because to me, it seems like they're just another branch of the military-industrial complex.
		Or an arm of the CIA, but logged in everyone's home.
unidentified		I think it's pretty scary that they collect all that data.
		It really is, and we shouldn't allow it.
		The debate we had in committee specifically is, say you join any kind of company email system, or your purchase.
		You go to any department store and you start purchasing stuff.
		The debate is whether they have to ask you to opt in to collect your data, or you have to ask to opt out.
		And I would say my strong view is you have to choose to opt in.
		It is a free country.
		If you want to be able to collect your data, tell them, yeah, here, I want you to go and collect my data, give it to other people that sell stuff, and send me emails, and give me phone calls.
		You opt in.
		But they take it, for them to take it, and you then have to go find a way to opt out.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Right, it's like having an email, a bunch of email things you keep getting and you can't even find how to unsubscribe.
unidentified		Right.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		You never subscribe in the first place.
unidentified		Right.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I feel like all I'm ever doing is unsubscribing.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Dude, I just have like 30,000 emails just collecting and...
unidentified		I just did five unsubscribes yesterday to see if I could clear it out.
		But that's the debate, and many Republicans, unfortunately, I disagree strongly, feel that you should have to be required to opt out, that private companies should be able to collect it unless you tell them otherwise.
		And so, that is the debate we have, and I think we need to win that debate.
		The other debate is even when the internet was created in the 1990s, when it was brand spanking new, and you say we're the same age, I'm not sure, I think I'm a little older than you, but I did not have a cell phone in college!
		I have three children, and it's hard for people to understand that I didn't actually have a cell phone until I was like in my late 20s.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I had a beeper.
unidentified		I was like, I didn't have that.
unidentified		I didn't, you know, didn't have any of that stuff.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We're bringing beepers back.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because no one here at Timcast answers their phones.
		Good.
		And so it's just like, okay, I'm gonna have to get beepers for everybody that beep.
		And only I will have the number.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Nice.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And if it beeps, it's me.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		What if those were playing all along?
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		We were just trying to get beepers.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Bring beepers back!
		Yo, beepers were great, weren't they?
		Remember back in the beeper days?
unidentified		Yeah.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		We had like a blue, like the transparent blue ones, the really cool ones.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		That's so crazy.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What was that?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Was that on the IDEN network?
unidentified		I thought it was a doctor only thing.
		But yeah, what I think I'd like to say when Al Gore invented the Internet in the 1990s, we had actually identified, you know, the Facebooks, all the Internet providers, from lawsuits.
		If they censored your data, said something about you on the Internet was completely untrue, which frankly happened to me, and there's no responsibility at all whatsoever.
		Whereas if you say that to the newspapers, like you remember the Colby Covington kid who went to the pro-life march?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The Washington Catholic kid?
unidentified		I said Colby Covington!
		Yeah, I'm a fan.
		Covington Catholic, that's funny.
		Covington Catholic kid who went to the pro-life march and then was basically harassed by a protester in the Washington Post falsely stated that he had harassed a gentleman.
		The video came out, proved definitively that this young man that did absolutely nothing wrong was really the victim of that whole thing.
		He got a big settlement on the Washington Post.
		I don't know the number, but the Washington Post had to pay him millions of dollars because he sued successfully for being smeared and lied about.
		You cannot do that to Facebook or the Internet.
		You can't do it.
		They've been indemnified by law.
		And I don't usually find myself on the same side of trial lawyers here or anything like that, but I think it's high time we take away that indemnification from social media companies to just totally lie about you or censor you.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think the standard should be, they do not editorialize their rules, and then they're identified.
		But if they editorialize their rules, you get no protection.
		So, Facebook, YouTube, let's use YouTube as an example, because it was true for Twitter, but now that Elon's taken over, it's not as true.
		Section 230 was supposed to be like, we get it.
unidentified		Yeah, Section 230.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You're going to get a bunch of weird crap, and you can get rid of that stuff.
unidentified		Right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Abuse pictures, crime, all that stuff.
		You will not lose your liability protection for reasonably moderating objectionable material.
		They then went, really?
		I think hate speech is objectionable.
		And they interpreted it that way.
		The law needs to be clarified.
		You cannot set editorial rules, like Twitter had a rule, that if you misgender someone, you get banned.
		It's like, absolutely, you are now disqualified from identification.
		If you choose to prop up certain accounts... So this was really interesting, during the... there were hearings in Congress over... with Jack Dorsey.
		And I forget which rep it was, they pointed out that if you live in this area, in the DC metro, and you log into Twitter as a, you sign up as a new user, Twitter by default suggests you follow Democrats.
unidentified		Oh, jeez.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I mean, and that's a huge problem.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, if they do that, it's totally fine you do, but you are liable for everything said on your platform.
		All right, we're gonna go to super chat, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and head over to TimCast.com.
		Click join us, because this show is made possible thanks in part to viewers like you.
		When you become a member at TimCast.com you enable us to do really awesome things.
		For instance, we will be flying next week to Iowa for the caucuses.
		Not only will we have special coverage of the caucuses on the 15th with a rotating selection of guests of various different political campaign support.
		We're doing a town hall with Vivek Ramaswamy.
		I say town hall, but we're a podcast, so we're going to make it a podcast kind of town hall.
		Sold out instantly.
		50 tickets.
		Very intimate.
		People are going to be hanging out.
		It's going to be awesome.
		And we're doing it on the 10th.
		We're not going to make money from doing this.
		I want to make sure it's very transparent.
		Timcast makes money.
		We sell memberships.
		Timcast.com.
		You can watch the Uncensored show.
		You can join the Discord.
		We make money because of that.
		Someone signs up.
		They give us $10 a month or more.
		You can sign up at higher levels for different benefits.
		There's the Elite Club, for instance.
		We do make money from that.
		Us choosing to go to Iowa will cost us $100,000.
		We will lose that money.
		What is the benefit?
		I think it's good for the overall company.
		And the goal is simply this.
		One, we want to do it.
		We want to be there on the ground in Iowa during these caucuses.
		We want to meet the various supporters of these campaigns and do a town hall with Vivek Ramaswamy.
		We want to counter the debates on CNN and, you know, create a space for truth-tellers.
		I think Vivek is one of those guys.
		And that means it's going to cost money to do.
		The reality is, from a business perspective, if we keep doing things like that, we create more incentive for people to become members.
		So to put it simply, what do you buy when you buy a TimCast membership?
		You get uncensored members-only shows.
		You get our documentaries.
		We got a couple.
		We're making more.
		You get our other shows that are fun and silly.
		You get access to the members-only Discord to hang out, and that money goes towards investing in culture, covering the caucuses, and making this show better and better as much as we can with your assistance, so consider it.
		Let's read your superchats.
		Raph, with the first superchat, he says, first, congratulations, sir, you've won the night.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Nice.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Patrick C says, I hope Trump doesn't show any mercy at this point when he gets back in.
		I'm done with these people, I can't stand it.
		Hear, hear.
		Patrick, I'm sure you heard my rant earlier in the show.
		Very passionate, I think is what the representative here called it.
		Passionate.
		Yeah, I'm just pissed.
		You just call it whatever.
		Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
		says, Biden says he doesn't foster fear, while also saying that Trump and Maga are holding a knife to the throat of their democracy.
		Remember, remember the 5th of November, for that will be the day of their reckoning.
		Isn't it amazing?
		It's gonna be November 5th.
		Coming up!
		I mean, that's, uh, it's a British thing.
		But, uh, we'll take it too!
		Everybody's gonna show up with Trump masks on.
		They're gonna cheer and celebrate Trump's, uh, victory.
		All right.
		Kicksakicks, is that how you say it?
		Tim, is your Kiki-Jiki deck just RDW, or is something else entirely?
		Please, would you go over a couple of your favorite interactions the deck uses?
		Unfortunately, I will say, yo, it's been so long since I've played Commander.
		It's been like a year.
		I think the last time Ian and I played was maybe like eight or nine months ago.
		So I can barely remember what's in my Kiki-Jiki deck.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		I'll have to go and check it out.
		I can tell you though.
		My Kiki-Jiki deck, I'm gonna brag here, anybody who doesn't understand what I'm about to say, good.
		The Kiki-Jiki deck is gilded, the sleeves for the cards are gold, every card that exists in a foil iteration is foil, and every other card that exists is an original print.
		So, I've got like alpha and beta cards in there.
		It is, the deck itself could be made, it's an expensive deck, But I think my version of it probably costs like $10,000.
		It is like my prized Magic the Gathering deck.
		I've been playing Magic since I was a kid.
		I'm very proud that I was able to build this deck.
		And I made sure it was the best it could possibly be.
		That is the one luxury thing that I've ever bought.
		Like everything else is kind of just like more practical or an investment.
		This one was like, I really wanted a premium Magic the Gathering deck.
		And I will be proud of that purchase.
		Alright, we'll carry on.
		I also have a bunch of other decks.
		Let's see, what do we got?
		Neglectful Sausage says, Bill Clinton likes him young.
		Who doesn't?
		We don't need old bruised fruit.
		We like the ones that just turned ripe and juicy, ladies take note.
		Yes, but when Epstein says young, there's a different implication as to what young means.
		Nobody wants to eat unripe fruit.
		You get it?
		Nobody wants to eat unripe fruit. You get it?
unidentified		Oh, dude.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean...
unidentified		Oh man, dude.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Like, I don't want to get too, like...
		You know what? I'm not even...
		No, what are you going to say?
		Just like...
		Yeah...
		Young girls are not as much fun as girls that are, like, late 20s.
		I like it when sex looks like jujitsu.
		Like you're going at it with someone.
		Not like the whole teaching thing or young girls.
unidentified		22!
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, I understand the look thing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The scientific data shows that the average age of male preference is 22.
		And the scary thing is, I find this to be gross, it would be younger.
		But men don't like immature women.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		No.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So it ends up skewing towards between like 22 and 26.
		That's why some people say 24, but what they found was that men, when they send messages on dating apps, 22 gets, 22 year old women get more messages than anybody else.
		Yeah.
		And when they look at like a guy's profile, they see that 22 has, at the individual level.
		But the creepy thing was there was studies done where they showed images of teenage girls and up to, like, older women, two men, and asked them to rate them on their beauty and sexual attractiveness.
		The men did not know the ages or anything about the women, and the 14-year-old girl scored the highest.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Good grief.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And people need to understand this, because this is why modeling agencies use 14-year-old girls for... Heroin chic.
		It's disgusting in my opinion.
		I knew this because I've known about the modeling industry because I have friends and family who are assigned to major labels or major agencies.
		And they'd be like, you know when you walk into the mall and you see like the Victoria's Secret thing?
		I shouldn't call it Victoria's Secret because I don't know what their policy is.
		They may use, you know, of age women.
		But like you go to the mall and you'll see like a lingerie or like a racy photo.
		Those girls are like 15, 16 years old.
unidentified		That shouldn't even be allowed.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It shouldn't be allowed.
		Modeling agencies should not be able to do racy modeling of young girls. 18.
		But yeah, it should be 18.
		They do though, and a lot of people don't know this.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I didn't know that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yup.
		Some of the most well-known or most used models, they're like 15, 16.
		Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of models who are prominent who are in their 20s too.
		I'm not saying they're not, but I think people need to realize that.
		If you're walking through the mall and you see an advertisement, and it's this, you know, I'll give you an example.
		It'll be like a woman.
		She'll be topless, but her arms will be covering her nipples, and she'll be making like a seductive face, and it'll be like a perfume.
		Yeah, she's like 16.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Oh my god.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Messed up, huh?
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's true.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Alright, we'll read some more.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We'll read some more.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Thank God.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Ethan Helms says, Megyn Kelly said, don't be surprised if we eventually hear from Epstein himself.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Y'all see that?
unidentified		What?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Did she say that?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		When was that?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		She's got a Ouija board.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Does she really?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, she thinks he's alive.
unidentified		There's a recording out somewhere, maybe.
unidentified		Something like that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but there are a lot of people who think he's still alive.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Gotcha.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I don't know about that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Whatever, man.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		How else are they gonna get him out?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The Ouija board's still funny.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The Trooper says, hey Tim, can you adjust your shirt again and say, I get no respect at all, I tell ya.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't understand, what does that stand for?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Rodney Dangerfield, man.
unidentified		I don't get it, I get no respect at all!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Of course I get Rodney Dangerfield!
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		God, I love Rodney Dangerfield.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's fascinating.
		He got famous when he was like 50.
		Yeah.
		He was doing comedy.
		It didn't work.
		And then finally he got down on himself and started making fun of himself and everyone loved it.
		And he was like self-deprecating humor was amazing.
		It's victimless.
unidentified		Yeah, exactly.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know, he doesn't make fun of anybody but himself.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And it made him rich and famous.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		That's funny.
unidentified		It worked.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you guys ever see, what was that movie called?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It was called, like, Back to School or something?
unidentified		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Back to School.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Diving board thing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that was so great.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I have not seen that movie since I was a real little kid, but the most memorable moment of the movie for me is when he's arguing with the professor, because the professor doesn't actually know how to run a business because he's in university, and then all the students take notes from him because he's this industry leader.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, good movie.
unidentified		Imagine that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Max Reddick says, Tim, you gotta get Destiny back on.
		Would be a great conversation about Biden's corruption, J6, etc.
		He certainly feels differently than you do.
		I like Destiny, he's a good dude.
		He's been on the show several times, he's been on various forms of it, and we play poker with him after the fact.
		Destiny is a sincere guy.
		He believes what he believes, and he's not, he's not, there's no grift, no grift.
		I disagree with him, but I think he's a good dude.
		So we enjoy having him on to hear those perspectives, and the reality is like, I think for the bulk of things, we agree with him.
		And then when it comes to stuff like this, we disagree.
		But I have tremendous respect for him because we were arguing about something like the first time he came on the show.
		And I said something to the effect of, all they're doing is lying, exploiting a crisis to implement their policy changes.
		And he said something like, well, when else would you do it?
		And then I kind of had this realization like, Oh, he's being honest that he wants this stuff done.
		I can respect that.
		If you tell me you think policy should be changed in ways that bypasses the vote of the people or like you don't think we should... I want to be careful.
		I want to drag the guy or get his position wrong.
		But if your view is we should implement radical change during a crisis because it's better and there are smart people who know how to do it, As long as you're not lying to me.
		Because this is what they do.
		I think you mentioned this before the show.
		I don't know if it was during the show.
		You said everything the Democrats try to do is the opposite.
unidentified		Has the opposite effect.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's what I can't stand.
		If they came to me and said, look, we really hate homeless people, so we're going to implement these policies that actually hurt them, I'd say, well, okay.
		I disagree with you.
		But when you come to me and say, no, no, we're going to help them.
		We're helping.
		And then you burn everything down.
		I'm like, you're lying.
unidentified		But I think they're saying that we say in Congress what the left does, never let a crisis go to waste.
		Every time something happens, somebody uses a gun inappropriately, let's go ban certain guns.
		Yep.
		COVID, you know, COVID, let's go take your freedoms away.
		Let's just shut down things and, you know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Are you a big gun guy?
unidentified		Of course, yeah, definitely.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So I was hanging out at a gun store.
		I went to Alaska, and basically every store in Alaska, when you're not in the big cities, is a gun store too, because if you're in the middle of nowhere, and you're going to a general goods store, they've got guns and bullets, or something.
		You know, maybe I'm not speaking... maybe Alaskans know better.
		All I know is I went to a store that sold chocolate bars, and they also had guns.
		It made sense though, because it was a town of only a few hundred people.
unidentified		Right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And so, you're living out here, you need your weapons.
		But anyway, we're hanging out, and then I was just passively talking about this, because the guys who are with us, one guy was from Montana, and I had to explain to them that in Maryland, the M1A is an assault weapon.
		It has been banned explicitly and specifically as an assault weapon, but the SCAR-20S is legal.
		Now, for those that don't know anything about guns, an M1A, it's like, okay, there's different variants or whatever, I suppose, but it's, it's, it's, uh, well, it's semi-auto, but it's like a woodstock, uh... Right, the way it looks.
		...308 or 55, uh, no, no, 7, uh, 7, uh, 6.2.
		The SCAR-20S is a modern AR-15 style .308.
		The really simple way to break this down is, SCAR-20S, modern, better, better handling, better weight, everything about it is better, better accessories, more adaptable, more modifiable, totally legal and fine.
		M1A, which is reminiscent of what they used in Vietnam or whatever, banned as an assault weapon.
		There is absolutely no logic whatsoever behind this.
		Weapon of war, scary, ban it.
		But what about a SCAR-20S?
		They go, I don't know what that is.
		And then we all just go, don't tell them.
unidentified		They want to ban the ones with scary names or that look scary.
		There's no logic to it.
		You know, 10 rounds of ammunition, 12, 15.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I love the KSG-25.
		Totally fine and legal in Maryland.
		You know what that is?
		You guys know what that is?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It is a double mag tube 25 shell pump action shotgun.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		What?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And it's awesome!
		And so when we went to the range with it, we've got 25 rounds of buckshot and it's just boom, boom, boom, boom.
		It vaporized the wood structure of the target.
		Totally fine.
		And it should be fine, but an M1A...
		No, not allowed.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I'm looking at them both.
		I don't know if anyone's ever played Call of Duty, but it's like the weapon you start out with is an M1 Garand and it sucks.
		And then you have to build your way up to the Browning, which is like the one that you get out of the mystery box.
		It's got the things that come down.
		It's fully automatic.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What is the Garand thumb?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Because people would be... The Garand is actually really good.
		It's a solid rifle.
		It's just that they wanted to update it because they wanted to shrink the caliber or the size of the bullet.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Okay, John Curry says, M1A is a beautiful rifle, much nicer than a SCAR.
		I agree.
		I do.
		Because Luke's got the SCAR-20S, and I've got an M1A, and we go to the range, and I'm just like, I like mine better.
		I do.
		You know, it is what it is.
		My favorite is my Winchester Repeater .357 Magnum.
		It's great.
		I love it.
unidentified		A shotgun with 25 rounds would be great for home protection.
		That crook running around your house?
		You gotta reload, man.
		Buckshot it, you're gonna get him.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what.
		So, it's got dual mag tube, 12 shells each.
		If you use the shorter shells, I forgot what they're called, but they have the shorter shells, the smaller ones, you can get way more in there.
		But then you hold one in the chamber itself, so it goes 25.
unidentified		Okay, got it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But it can switch between the two mag tubes with a switch in the back.
		So the great thing about it is you can put your less lethals or your birdshot in one side and your lethals, your buckshot, or whatever else slugs in the other side.
		And so in the instance of home defense, it actually is really great for home defense.
		Yeah, I'm serious.
		You don't necessarily need the KSG-25.
		The KSG I don't know if you call it gun insurance.
		like 12 or whatever, but you can actually flick the switch and use birdshot and then if things are really dangerous
		You can flip the switch and then use whatever else you've loaded in the weapon
		Yeah, I always recommend however everybody a few things is always get training
		Guns guns are as serious as they as anything could get always follow the rules and they actually have I don't know
		if you call It gun insurance. I think it's gonna sure yeah
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, us CCA has USCCA has an insurance policy that's available.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But that's where, like, if you get into any legal issues... And it's not expensive.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		One of the things that the left loves to do is they love to go ahead and be like, oh, we should charge everyone blah blah blah insurance.
		I have insurance and I pay like a hundred bucks a year for it.
		It doesn't cost anything because nobody kills people with guns that, like, you don't get insurance if you're gonna go and murder someone.
		Like, you don't.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		For real.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But you but any anybody anybody into guns will tell you get training first and foremost and the funny thing is These leftists are like we need to mandate this mandate that and I'm like, bro Every single person at the gun store will ask you to come to their training course Yeah, of course and and we'll advocate that you get your training and learn the rules and all that stuff before anything else Yeah Oh yeah, for sure.
unidentified		They do.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And not only that, like Luke Rudkowski, for instance, loves doing it and loves bringing his friends to do the training.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I have like 15 certificates.
		I go to one, I try to go to one every year.
		I missed this past year, but I try to go to, whether it be rifle or handgun or something like that.
		I mean, if you're going to carry a gun, which I carry a gun, like if you're going to carry it, you need to go and get training.
		And like, so yeah, get training.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Ghost Wolf Primal says, Tim, have you ever talked to Nick Freitas?
		Yes.
		He's been on the show, I think, twice.
		He's been on twice?
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		He's a good dude.
		We like him.
		He's great.
		He's a Republican member of the House of Delegates in 2016.
unidentified		He is.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He's a good dude.
		I like having him on.
		All right.
		Uh-oh.
		JakeTheCryptoSnack says, Phil, why did you have to ruin my night?
		I'm gonna have to redo my whole pedal board now.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Just get the regular black wah pedal.
unidentified		He just figured it out?
unidentified		He didn't know all along that it had that on there?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Most people don't know.
		I mean, that's why it got on there.
		Look, if you put, like, Hitler's 14 words, everyone would be freaking out, obviously correctly.
		But, like, this goes under the radar.
		Because our entire educational system is totally red-washed.
		McCarthy didn't go far enough.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Agree.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Hear, hear.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		It's like those, uh... Not, like, requested by one guy and then made a signature?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's just a wa-pedal.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		It's just a wa-pedal.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's red, it's got a star on it, and it's got a genocidal slogan on the side.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		There's many more that do not have genocidal slogans on the side that I would advise people to go get.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		That person really had a history to figure that out.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I gotta be honest, I mean, do you really need... I'm gonna get so much hate for this, but do you really need a pedal board at this point?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it depends.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		If you're gonna do stuff live... Yeah, if you're doing it live... You can do it without it, but... But, like, I just have a multi-pedal, like, mixer board.
		You know what I mean?
		Like, you get two of them, you've got eight pedals.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's fine.
		I think, like, getting, like, a whole bunch of crazy pedals and having this, like, array of $500 pedals is... It's fun.
		It's fun, but, you know, do you need to?
		I don't know.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Look, all you really need is just the expression pedal, and then, honestly, you can just program it into your show.
		So that way, all the changes happen on your Axe effect at the right time, and they're all triggered by your click track.
		You don't have to worry about changing pedals or dancing around.
		It's all programmed.
		It all runs off the click.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I almost put a chaos pad on my guitar.
unidentified		Yeah!
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think Matt Bellamy of Muse had that.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		Like in the actual body of it?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think he had a custom build with a chaos pad in it.
		I'm not sure, I'm not 100% sure, but I took a mini chaos pad.
		For those that don't know what that is, it's like basically a touchpad that when you touch it, it makes sounds and you can move your finger around and it has different axes as to what the sounds will do.
		Yeah, X, Y, X, Y, X, Y. Yeah, so like tone and like modulation or whatever.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And he used that, he put the guitar through the chaos pad, right?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, so when you strum, you could hit the Chaos Pad, and I think Matt had the Chaos Pad, and I'm not sure exactly what he had or what it was, but all I know is, I'm assuming that's what it was, because I'm not 100% sure, and then I went out and I was like, I gotta build something like this, so I used Putty to stick it to my Telecaster, and a mini Chaos Pad, it was awesome!
		Dude, it worked so well.
		I should do that again.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You could get a Luther to install one, I guarantee.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's do it!
		We're supposed to build a custom guitar.
		Let's get a custom build with a touchpad in it.
		Somebody hit me up about building a guitar and we just never got around to doing it.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, somebody sent one.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I'm not sure if you customized it or anything, but they sent a guitar.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's make it happen.
		I don't know.
		I defer to Carter.
		Carter, you are in charge of music.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, hit me up.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right, we'll grab some more.
		What have we here?
		Kako says, 99% of pilots agree with you, but we don't know who's in the back.
		I only found out because I asked who are the people with the envelopes.
		I suppose the issue is, you know, let me just put it this way.
		If there's a pilot getting ready to take off and then 20 people with envelopes show up and that pilot says to the gate agent, hey, who are these people with the envelopes?
		And they go, those are illegal immigrants.
		And he goes, okay, the plane's not leaving.
		They will remove those people from the flight.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the pilot does charge.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They do have like that kind of authority, don't they?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Pilot, just say, off the plane now.
		I don't care.
		If you told me these people are being trafficked, they're illegal immigrants being trafficked, just say, I'm not going to fly with those people on my plane.
		And that's it.
		End of story.
		It's like I watch a video where a lady got kicked off because she was arguing with a flight attendant.
		You mean to tell me you can't kick off someone for trying to be trafficked?
		I don't know, that sounds like the easiest way to get rid of him.
		You say, you need law enforcement to come in.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, someone could check this or whatever, but I do believe that the pilot has, like, just like the captain of a ship, the captain of the plane has final say.
		If he says someone goes, they go.
		And he's like, the flight attendants have that authority.
		That's what I think.
		Yeah, I think so.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's not just that.
		Even if you didn't have the authority, you can be like, look, boss, I'm not flying a plane.
		I'm not going to be the guy trafficking these people.
		You know what I mean?
		You want someone to traffic undocumented aliens and go to jail or whatever?
		Find somebody else to do it.
		But that's the thing.
		Here's what I see is happening.
		There'll be a lot of pilots who'll just be like, if I just say nothing, no one will ever get mad at me and will never know I did it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That basically is saying, yeah, I'll commit the crime.
		It's fine.
		I'm getting a paycheck.
		I don't want to risk it.
		I worked for a company once.
		A non-profit.
		They sent us out to fundraise.
		We were doing street fundraising.
		Let me tell you a story about a company I worked for.
		When Deepwater Horizon had the disaster, and oil was spilling, they gave us these pieces of paper with a fact sheet.
		And I went, wow!
		I believed the fact sheet.
		And so when I went out to, I was on, I think I was on Sunset in Los Angeles.
		I was near the CNN building, and near Amoeba Music, if you guys know Amoeba.
		And I was waving to people being like, hey, we're raising money.
		We're building awareness and we're advocating members of Congress to enact environmental policy.
		Here's our information.
		We need you to give us money.
		And people were like, yes, of course.
		Oh, man, Deepwater Horizon.
		That was so horrible, that oil spill.
		And I'm like, right, we need better protections.
		And then one guy came up to me and he was like, you're lying.
		And I said, what do you mean?
		That's not how much oil is being spilled. That's not true."
		And I was like, what? And I looked at it and I forgot what the number, it's been a decade,
		but I was like, it's been more than a decade actually, it's been like 12 years.
		And I was like, uh, no, it's like 10,000 or something. He's like, no, it isn't. It's way
		less than that. And he was like, I mean, it's bad, but you're out here lying to people. What
		are you exaggerating? So they give you money? And I was like, I gotta be honest, man,
		we, these are, our bosses give us these fact sheets.
		I, we just, I just assumed it was true.
		And he goes, well, it's not true and you should stop lying to people.
		And I was like, I agree.
		And so I immediately called the office and I said, hey man, the fact sheets you gave us are wrong.
		I'm not going to lie to people to convince them to give me money.
		And they said, well, we'll fix it, but just keep working anyway.
		And I said, no.
		And I, that was it.
		Hung up, went back and said, if you're going to tell me to lie to people to get them to give me money, that's fraud.
		I'm not going to do it.
		And they were like, okay, we'll fix it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Someone tweeted at me saying Matt from Muse did have the chaos pad.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It was a chaos pad.
		Cool.
		I, I didn't know exactly what it was.
		I just saw him playing once and I assumed that's what it was.
		And the reason I'm careful to say, cause it may have been a different company or something, but he had like a touch thing in it.
		So I built one, but anyway, I digress.
		Look, man, I ended up, I ended up, uh, Let's just say leaving that company in dispute.
		And that was one of the final moments when they told me, just keep fundraising.
		And I said, I will not use, I will not lie to people for money.
		That's me.
		You know, you do you, I guess.
		Chris Larson says, I backed the gold reserve, but where is the reserve kept?
unidentified		Yeah, well Fort Knox is empty, wasn't it?
unidentified		They haven't given a good accounting lately, what's left in there.
serge du preez ▲ ● ▼		If there's any left, you know, at this point.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		I've been asking for that information.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for hanging out.
		It's been a blast.
		Head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, because with your support we can do crazy things and we've got a bunch of really great plans.
		We're hoping to have the funds to be able to go to as many primary events as possible.
		So we've got Probably.
		I don't know if we'll do Super Tuesday because for March we're planning this big Pittsburgh event and we're hoping we can pull it off.
		It's not going to be very easy.
		And the reason is politicians are scared.
		That's right.
		The people who are running for president are terrified to enter an arena where I say crazy things.
		And, you know, to put it much more simply, We've heard from a lot of people who are in politics.
		They don't actually want to talk about topical news.
		They want to talk about controlled issues.
		So ask yourself this.
		If you ever watch a podcast and you're wondering at why a major breaking story wasn't addressed, especially as it pertains to a certain political candidate, it's probably because the candidate said, I'll come on your show as long as you don't talk about X. And then the podcast said, okay, we'll do that.
		We don't.
		We tell people, we just pull up whatever's big in the news.
		There are certain things we will, at Tim Kast, agree we won't talk about.
		If someone comes on the show and they're like, I don't want to talk about religion, I'm like, oh, I don't care.
		Like, we're here to talk about the news.
		If you don't talk about religion, I'm not going to bug you about religion.
		But if you come here and say, oh, did you hear about that Epstein thing?
		I don't want to bring up the Epstein thing.
		I'll be like, well, that's the news, so you're out of luck.
		But this means a lot of politicians, eh, they're not going to want to do it.
		But, uh, so we got plans.
		And, uh, because of you guys as members, those of you who hang out in the Discord especially, we are able to budget effectively and make plans for what we're going to do throughout the year.
		And we're going to do a bunch of really, really fun and crazy stuff.
		The, the big goal is we're doing this thing with Vivek in five days.
unidentified		Woof!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Five days.
		The tickets that people bought for this show, they're not just sitting in an auditorium looking up at a stage.
		They're gonna be sitting on chairs probably like 10 feet away from all of us, and we're gonna ask questions and we're gonna hang out.
		So it's much more of a hangout than anything else, which means we got a lot of security, we got a lot of vetting, it means some tickets make it kicked back because, you know, if someone with nefarious intentions wants to come in, then we're gonna...
		Push those things to somebody else, but should be a lot of fun. You can follow the show at Tim cast IRL
		You can follow me personally at Tim cast rep Mooney. Do you want to shout anything out? Oh gosh
unidentified		well, shout out to my wife and three kids for Sticking with sticking with the gentleman in politics, but
		no thanks for having me on the show Thanks to good old West Virginians for allowing me the chance to represent them in Congress, and I'm running for the U.S.
		Senate.
		And mooney4wv.com is my website.
		Twitter?
		Twitter.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Twitter You worry about getting the gold standard back, you get the people to worry about Twitter.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Slash X. Yeah.
		All right.
		Right on.
		Thanks for hanging out.
unidentified		Rep Alex Mooney.
unidentified		Carter?
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I think it is Rep Alex Mooney because I searched it to make sure before I tagged you, you didn't want to tag the wrong one.
		Oh, thank you.
		But I just want to say to everyone who supported us with Together Again, thank you so much.
		I spent the last two weeks digging into exactly why only a quarter of our sales— Not even.
		They said were going to be reported.
		Yeah, weren't.
		This song did better than any of the other ones.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's our biggest release ever.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Man, you guys rock.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I mean, out of five songs.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		But this one really hit, and I've seen behind the curtain on how it's tracked, and I've become a savant on Billboard charts at this point, so we're getting there.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let me make it quick for everybody.
		So, Billboard decided they will no longer count certain sales, direct customer sales.
		So here's how it works.
		You set up your store.
		What they're basically saying is if you want to chart, you have to go through iTunes and Amazon.
		Big tech owns the space now.
		Yep.
		So if you want to own your own digital store for selling your music, you no longer get to be a part of the charting process.
		This is what I was saying.
		They want to try and gatekeep and control it, but it's the hardest thing for them to do.
		So they play dirty games like this.
		There's a company called Luminate.
		They track all sales and streams and premium streams.
		It's a bunch of different things they track.
		Those numbers then get reported to Billboard.
		Luminate and the direct-to-customer companies, there's three companies, so we sell our song, you guys buy it, and they report the number to Luminate.
		Luminate tracks and accumulates all the data from all the different platforms and gives it to Billboard, and then Billboard throws our views in the trash and says we don't count those.
		The two companies in the front had no idea that Billboard was doing that.
		It is a dirty game, but we're gonna win!
		So hopefully we have the next song, Eyes of Advice, out really soon, as well as I think we're calling it A Hunger Inside.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Really soon.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And then I think we're gonna try and get, I don't know how many songs it'll put us at for the album, like eight?
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		I'm working on trying to figure out what we should put all on it, but we'll definitely have eight.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I think and then I just started writing one today which is it but I'll keep close to the chest on this one but I think we'll end up with like nine or ten possibly because the other thing I think we have to record and figure out how to record effectively is words in a book but that should hit us that should be relatively easy easier even though it's kind of a hard hard song to record but then about ten so yeah Yeah, no, but anyway, it's going to be great.
carter banks ▲ ● ▼		Big plans for Trash House, which you can follow at, you just go to TrashHouseRecords.com.
		It will redirect you to the YouTube.
		If you want to follow me personally, just Carter Banks, or at Carter Banks on Twitter, and yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And also, eyes of advice is, the song is done.
		A Hunger Inside is, it's done, but we're messing around with it.
		And then we've got potentially words in a book and a new song I'm going to write.
		But these are both relatively simpler songs that shouldn't take us that long.
		And the reason I'm saying this is because what I would really prefer to do right now is finish James O'Keefe's song more than anything else.
		But I feel like I don't want to just... It's been long enough.
		We should just put out the first album for TimCast before we start working on James's stuff.
		But then the other thing we need to do is we need to hire more engineers to work under Carter.
		So that we can start ramping up the production and bring on other artists.
		And I'm really hoping we can get, like, two bands under the label that we can find organically.
		Like, new artists that we can promote and stuff like that.
		But I actually, I think we've got some hits for James.
		James has got some good song ideas.
		Very talented guy.
		I think the stuff we produce with James O'Keefe in the videos are gonna smash the records.
		I mean, break the records and smash the charts.
		So, really excited.
		Anyway.
