I'm David. | ||
Okay, I can't blame them, I guess. | ||
They're going to lose their races. | ||
Cook Political Report is now showing six states moving from, I should say, between six states. | ||
You've got some moving from toss-up to lean Republican, and some states that are likely Democrat moving to lean Democrat because the polling is so bad for Joe Biden. | ||
So we'll talk about that. | ||
Plus, we've got Jon Stewart. | ||
Who came out and basically said, Democrat primary, be damned. | ||
They should have a convention where they should determine who will be the nominee. | ||
And this is what every Democrat and every young person has been complaining about for a long time. | ||
That the democratic process at the DNC, whatever you want to call it, is not actually democratic. | ||
They have superdelegates who decide. | ||
And now Jon Stewart's advocacy is basically saying, the political elites of the Democratic Party will get together and they will decide for you who your nominee will be. | ||
So we're going to talk about all of that, my friends. | ||

Tim Burchett. | ||
Thank you for having me, brother. | ||
I really appreciate it. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
Thanks for coming. | ||
Do you want to give a little background on who you are, what you work on? | ||
Yeah. | ||
I'm born and raised in Knoxville, Tennessee. | ||
It's the only place in America where people do not speak with an accent. | ||
I graduated from University of Tennessee. | ||
My mom and daddy were Depression-era people. | ||
Daddy fought in the Second World War. | ||
My mama flew an airplane during the Second World War. | ||
She taught school. | ||
He fought the Japanese all the way across the Pacific, went to China after the war, fought the Communists, then he went to the University of Tennessee and fought the Communists there for 40 years. | ||
Wow. | ||
Yeah, he was Dean of Student Conduct. | ||
Then he left, and a little after 2000, both him, Mama, and Heaven, they were beautiful, wonderful people, hardworking folks. | ||
The youngest of three. | ||
Daddy was always looking after the underdog, and that's kind of been my political deal. | ||
I had a million-dollar business. | ||
I lost it. | ||
I got accused of taking toxic wastes in the mulch business. | ||
The EPA cleared me after I'd Closed down one day and after they closed me down, lost everything, decided to run for the state legislature. | ||
I was the only person out of 99 house races that year to beat an incumbent in a primary. | ||
Wow. | ||
By about two and a half percentage points. | ||
I knocked on over 6,000 doors. | ||
You'd take my shirt off and I look like a target, just red and a big white center. | ||
And every morning I'd wake up and I would throw up, had a horrible taste of peppermint in my mouth. | ||
And my mama would fix me a turkey sandwich and a Sprite and I would get out and go all day long and knock on doors again and why I threw up was every morning with the taste of peppermint because she licked stamps back then. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh yeah. | |
Yeah, you remember those days you didn't have the meter and all that stuff and and now you mailers really aren't as effective now with the internet and everything. | ||
Since Al Gore invented it. | ||
That's right. | ||
And email. | ||
We do have a lot I definitely want to ask you about with the SAVE Act, you know, illegal immigrants potentially voting. | ||
And I definitely want to ask you about the Help America Vote Verification Store, which has been going on for a while. | ||
So it should be fun. | ||
Thank you for joining us. | ||
We've got Libby hanging out. | ||
I'm Libby Emmons. | ||
I'm hanging out. | ||
I'm Libby Emmons with the Postmillennial and Human Events. | ||
Glad to be here. | ||
I'm glad you're here, too. | ||
I'm Hannah Clare Brimelow. | ||
I'm with scnr.com. | ||
That's Scanner News. | ||
I'm so excited you're here because you are in charge of one of my favorite events in Congress, which is the 15-minute Christmas party. | ||
That is my idea, yeah. | ||
It's fantastic, and I think everyone should Google that right now. | ||
We went 16 minutes this year because we couldn't fit it all in. | ||
Yeah, I saw. | ||
It stretched a little long last year, so we'll probably go back to 15. | ||
Well, good. | ||
You can send him back to work. | ||
I love that it was the first place Rep. | ||
Annapolina Luna's son had ever met Santa. | ||
It's just hilarious. | ||
Anyways, I'm glad to get... Baby Henry. | ||
Let's get started. | ||
All right. | ||
Baby Henry. | ||
Love him. | ||
Let's jump into the first story from The Post Millennial. | ||
Swing state congressional Democrats held meeting and cried over Biden staying in race, according to a report. | ||
Right before a Tuesday meeting with Democrats surrounding President Joe Biden's path forward in the upcoming 2024 election, a group of Swing District Democrats gathered in a solemn meeting where there were, quote, actual tears. | ||
As Biden has not stopped in his campaigning and has vowed to run against Donald Trump in November, some Swing District Democrats in Congress are feeling the heat It seems very strange right now. | ||
It's split. | ||
There are some establishment Democrat forces that want Biden to stay. | ||
battleground district Democrats is one of the last remaining groups in what has been | ||
reported to be a disintegrating effort on the Hill to get Biden to bow out of the race. | ||
It seems very strange right now. | ||
It's split. | ||
There are some establishment Democrat forces that want Biden to stay. | ||
There are many swing district forces and certain Democrats desperately trying to get him to | ||
leave. | ||
What we're seeing in the polling is that internally with this leak, Biden is way, way down. | ||
I'm wondering what you think Joe Biden should do. | ||
I'm curious, but more importantly, like what's happening on the Hill with this? | ||
I mean, you're in Congress. | ||
What are you seeing? | ||
Well, first of all, when Steve Cohen from Memphis walked out and they said, are y'all on the same page? | ||
And he said, we're not even on the same book. | ||
And I thought that was pretty, that's typical Steve Cohen. | ||
I feel like politically, you know, if we need to keep him in there, but for the betterment of the country, you know, Chip Roy, 25th Amendment, take him out of office. | ||
Because you figure Kim Jong-un, China, Putin, or whoever is doing their mischief. | ||
You know, we've got over 100,000, as my daddy would say, red, but they're communist Chinese in this country that have come over our southern border. | ||
And we've got terrorists. | ||
We know we're here. | ||
Terrorist cells. | ||
that are here, and we have an inept Justice Department. | ||
And you combine all those things, and there could be a lot of mischief in seven months. | ||
Now, the thought of Donald Trump being back in the White House probably will keep some of them under wraps, but still, that is a huge problem. | ||
And to think that if something goes down, and this is the guy, I mean, the guy can't find the soft-serve ice cream machine in the White House, and that is who's in charge of the free world. | ||
And he loves ice cream. | ||
He loves ice cream. | ||
So that's disconcerting. | ||
So he told me at the State of the Union address. | ||
I've seen a lot of people saying, we want Biden to stay. | ||
We've made that joke, like, hey, you know, we love Joe Biden. | ||
But in reality, Kamala Harris is next in line and she polls so, so poorly against Trump. | ||
She's awful. | ||
She's awful. | ||
She hasn't done anything in her term of office to make herself either likable or seem more competent. | ||
Except solving the border situation. | ||
Oh, well, of course she did. | ||
She's done a great job on that. | ||
By solving, we mean making everything worse. | ||
Not visiting. | ||
I've spent more time at the border than she has, I can assure you. | ||
If Biden steps down... | ||
She's next in line. | ||
She is next in line. | ||
And she does way worse. | ||
So isn't it in our political interest to say no Joe Biden? | ||
Well, I don't know. | ||
The polling is what you're seeing. | ||
It's just there's that fly if you're going to get him. | ||
He's on your head. | ||
Yeah, there you go. | ||
I got the taser ready. | ||
on your head. Yeah, there you go. I got the taser ready. | ||
Well, don't tase the congressman. | ||
Yeah, go tase the congressman. Go ahead. She's awful. | ||
There's no question. | ||
But the problem is we don't know how she will inspire. | ||
I think the middle America housewives, they hate her. | ||
I think we've talked about how the inner cities and the Hispanic folks are moving towards Trump. | ||
I mean, Trump's not going to win that vote, but he's making some huge headway into that. | ||
And I don't know that she would do that much better in those in those demographics except for the in the black community. | ||
But in the Hispanic community, Trump just pulls through the roof because of, you know... When he ate the taco bowl, that was... Well, that's it. | ||
I took a guy out to lunch last week who's a Hispanic felon. | ||
He's very successful. | ||
He loves America. | ||
And he said, he's here legally. | ||
And I said, what is it you like about Trump? | ||
I said, you know, he goes, he's a billionaire, Tim. | ||
And I said, well, what about that? | ||
He goes, he can back it up. | ||
He's cocky, but he can back it up. | ||
And you know, that's the truth. | ||
He can back it up. | ||
And they're used to all that crazy corruption down in there and the cartels. | ||
And what's going on, and they love America, and they see how great it could be, much better it could be, and they're going to work within the system. | ||
And I think that's where you're going to see a lot of the switch. | ||
But I don't think either one of them hold a candle against Trump. | ||
You know what I think? | ||
There's a lot of things that divide left and right, Democrat, Republican, and there are tendencies and trends among each group. | ||
Typically, when I encounter Democrats, they tend to be people who don't know how to work. | ||
And I don't mean they don't know how to lift boxes or make burgers or sell insurance. | ||
I'm not saying that. | ||
I mean, they don't understand how to trade, market, generate value. | ||
Typically, they understand, ask someone else. | ||
And whether that's welfare, which is the more insulting way to describe it, or they just apply for jobs somewhere else. | ||
They don't have the same mentality that you'll find more so in the country with conservatives, typically among conservatives, where they make value for themselves. | ||
And so this translates to, Donald Trump never earned anything. | ||
His dad gave him the money. | ||
And it's just like, I don't care if his dad gave him a million or ten million or hundred million. | ||
Increasing value. | ||
Trump gets a million dollar loan from his dad to start a business. | ||
He surpassed his dad's wealth. | ||
It's a biblical story, you know, the story about the father who gives his kids so much and all of them and one comes back and he just hid the money and he said, you know, no. | ||
And then one kid lost his butt, you know, and the other guy rolled the dice and did something and those were rewarded. | ||
So you're exactly right. | ||
They look at Trump and they're like, he didn't earn it. | ||
Isn't that what Obama said? | ||
Like you didn't build that? | ||
Was that one of his things? | ||
That just turned my stomach. | ||
These people out here roll the dice. | ||
I know billionaires, legitimate billionaires that have started businesses from nothing. | ||
Pilot Oil started with a little gas station just over the line in Bristol, Virginia from Bristol, Tennessee. | ||
Jim Haslam, the Royal Industries, Pete DeBusk, my buddy Teddy Phillips, his dad started Phillips | ||
and Jordan, they were in charge of the clean up of the World Trade Center. | ||
And they're billionaires, literally, and yet they started with nothing. | ||
Teddy Phillips started with a pickaxe and a shovel cleaning a ditch, literally. | ||
And so... | ||
But I would warn folks though, I always remember when Clinton won the White House and it came out that Clinton was a draft dodger, he evaded the Vietnam draft, he went to England, him and Hillary, he was a Rhodes Scholar for about six weeks or something, I don't know. | ||
I think he might have smoked too much weed over there and got kicked out. | ||
But he, where's that dadgum fly? | ||
And he, that's all right. | ||
And, and you know, but, and I, and it came out, he was a draft dodger and he's running against George Bush senior who was, you know, he was a Navy pilot was shot down, picked up by a sub in the middle of Pacific and everybody was cocky and we're going to win. | ||
I would warn people about Bill Clinton. | ||
Did you get him? | ||
I saw a spark. | ||
I don't know, but I brought my taser. | ||
Uh oh. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh no. | |
I hate that. | ||
Now we're going to suffer the injustice of that fly. | ||
But no, I just hope people aren't getting cocky and thinking, because it's not just the White House, you know, the House and the Senate. | ||
If they get the House and the Senate, they'll impeach Trump day one. | ||
That will come forward and Tlaib will be right up there. | ||
And if you want to see any significant change on a policy level, I mean, definitely at the federal level, but also at the state level, you have to pay attention to what else is going on down there. | ||
Exactly. | ||
One thing COVID showed us, ma'am, was that, you know, parents were looking over their kids' shoulders when they were at home on that computer thinking, what in the world are my kids? | ||
They're being taught pornography. | ||
And then they go talk to their school boards and they're labeled domestic terrorists by our so-called Justice Department. | ||
So I think that shows it's imperative that we pay attention to these. | ||
I don't like to call them lower. | ||
They're really higher. | ||
You know, the school board, your city council, your county commission. | ||
Yes, ma'am. | ||
And that's where that's what really happens. | ||
The best thing you can come out of Washington is absolutely nothing. | ||
We can just stop it. | ||
Just stop this train wreck. | ||
America will figure out a way to solve the problems. | ||
And we we overcome, you know, our politicians. | ||
But unfortunately, it moves. | ||
And so but we do need to pay attention to those local races. | ||
I think that's sort of the argument that the Democrats are making in way of trying to get some kind of movement from the Biden campaign. | ||
They're saying, you will cost us our down ticket races when typically I think because he's the incumbent, they'd be like, no, we're just going to pay attention to that and we'll get everyone in that we're expecting to. | ||
I mean, I almost like that everyone, including the Republicans, are on their toes because I want them to have to earn every single one of their constituents votes. | ||
I think it's easy to become complacent. | ||
I feel like the liberals, I don't say Democrats, but the liberals understand the whole process a lot better. | ||
You know, we win the White House, we get Reagan or whatever, we get Trump and we forget about everything else. | ||
And then they just hand us our lunch. | ||
And the Democrats, you know, they're a whole lot like the communist Chinese with their hundred year plan. | ||
They have a better plan. | ||
And I think we talked about this a little bit before the show, you mentioned it. | ||
One of things I've always been concerned about is sort of where does this MAGA, America First movement that was sort of sparked under Trump go? | ||
I mean, should he be elected in November, he could only serve for four more years. | ||
There's a lot of people coming up behind him. | ||
There are lots of talented people, but there's not a clear number one. | ||
Now we have four more years to figure that out, but it is interesting. | ||
I mean, that's one thing that Bannon talks about. | ||
Bannon talks about how it's not, there's not just one head of this movement, how it's a populist movement and there's a lot of people involved. | ||
Which is great, but populist movements also can become shattered, right? | ||
I mean, populist positions are inherent so that they serve different interests. | ||
I think part of it is seeing that energy that exists right now doesn't die off in places that really needs it because there isn't someone coming up. | ||
You know, if there's someone strong coming out of Missouri or Tennessee, does Georgia have the same kind of energy. Trump was gone for | ||
two years. Yeah, and to a certain extent what you really need are people in these local places | ||
taking charge and doing what they can like look at Andrew Bailey in Missouri. He's really going hard | ||
and using all of the legal tools at his disposal to you know | ||
go after the people who are prosecuting Trump to fight for the the citizens of Missouri and | ||
I mean, he took it to the Supreme Court. | ||
You have a case right now in Tennessee. | ||
You know, Tennessee is going to be in the Supreme Court next year fighting for literally our children's health and welfare in the entire country. | ||
That's going to be huge. | ||
I think we need to see a lot more red state attorney generals standing up. | ||
I don't know that we necessarily need one guy or one lady to be in charge. | ||
I don't think it's one. | ||
I think we need all of these people to actually stand up and put their, you know, money and their actions where their mouths are and get out there and do this fighting because we see so much going on with the Biden administration and no one's willing to hold them to account. | ||
We were just talking before the show about how Anna Paulina Luna is really intent on holding Merrick Garland in inherent contempt. | ||
And I think that's very important to do. | ||
He flouted a subpoena. | ||
He's already jailed people for flouting subpoenas. | ||
You know, Bannon, Navarro. | ||
And it's time to hold these people accountable. | ||
That's really necessary. | ||
And without our electeds doing that, where are we going to go? | ||
Well, let's jump to the story from Fox News and get an update on this story. | ||
Rep. | ||
Luna planning to force vote to hold Garland in inherent contempt for refusal to hand over Biden her tapes. | ||
Republican congresswoman said Sunday she expects the measure to pass. | ||
Now, she's not actually looking for the sergeant at arms to make the arrest, which I think should happen, but she wants to fine him $10,000 per day. | ||
But, Rep. | ||
Pritchett, you're there. | ||
What's going on? | ||
Yeah, well, I was talking to Luna on the drive over, actually. | ||
She and I are, me and her and her husband and baby Henry are pretty close. | ||
And we, we talk about this all the time. | ||
And I was at the press conference first one, and we were going to have a press conference in the morning, but we think we've kind of overdone the press conference. | ||
I think Luna is under the impression that she just needs to move the bill forward. | ||
But you got to realize a lot in our leadership and those circles do not want her to do that. | ||
They feel like she's pulling something from, you know, the president and with the debate victory. | ||
But I keep saying, you know, This thing is a moving target, and you need to add on. | ||
If we've got things that they've done wrong, we need to expose them. | ||
We need to bring them forward. | ||
That's what we're here for. | ||
We've got 22 legislative days left, and if we spend all our time naming post offices, that is an issue. | ||
As I told the leadership, I have a serious piece of legislation dealing with genetics and how the Chinese are stealing our genome, literally, and are developing Biological entities to come after us. | ||
And you know, I can't even get it to move. | ||
And I told our leadership, I said, you know, these dadgum post offices will name themselves. | ||
The one thing they have on us is we're not doing meaningful legislation. | ||
This is meaningful legislation. | ||
Let's pass it. | ||
Send it over to Schumer. | ||
We ought to pass H.R. | ||
2 every week. | ||
Just change it a little bit. | ||
Send it back over to them. | ||
Make it stronger. | ||
You know, border security. | ||
That's the issue. | ||
And that will be in the news every week. | ||
Or at the very least, subpoenas. | ||
100%. | ||
Yeah, bring them in. | ||
And let's enforce the law. | ||
Let's show America that this Justice Department is inept and corrupt. | ||
I think my view is unfortunately a bit more dismal pertaining to what we're seeing with Congress. | ||
We'll get into the SAVE Act in a little bit. | ||
But even if, you know, the SAVE Act, right? | ||
Proving you're a citizen if you're going to vote. | ||
Even if it passes the House, it doesn't go anywhere in the Senate because Democrats won't allow it to. | ||
And even if it goes to Biden, he vetoes it, it doesn't go anywhere. | ||
Now we're looking at Merrick Garland, who has defied congressional authority. | ||
The DOJ is refusing to enforce the law as it's supposed to be. | ||
And nothing will be done about it. | ||
So while Steve Bannon is in prison, and Peter Navarro is in prison for defying congressional authority, Republicans get nothing done. | ||
And it is always seemingly this way. | ||
I mean, probably most conservatives will tell you it's been this way for decades. | ||
But at least for the past decade, every single time an opportunity comes up, the Republicans say, no, no, slow down there, you know, we, oh, we better not, and then nothing happens. | ||
We're looking at Merrick Garland, who is engaged in a criminal activity. | ||
Verifiably, easily provable. | ||
He defied congressional authority, a co-equal branch of the government, challenging and trying to hold the executive branch to account, and the leadership for the Republicans in Congress are like, oh, you know, geez, I want to see the sergeant at arms arrest Merrick Garland. | ||
If Steve Bannon's going to be in jail, I'm not talking about revenge or retribution, I'm talking about equality under the law. | ||
Well, and the language is so similar. | ||
You have Merrick Garland saying that he can't turn over the Her tapes because of executive privilege. | ||
Well, that's why Bannon couldn't give up his communication with Trump. | ||
It's the exact same thing. | ||
You have Garland saying, you know, that he can't. | ||
give up the tapes now because you can't or he can't turn it over because that | ||
would chill the ability of the Department of Justice to conduct | ||
investigations of the future and you had Luna in her conference just before the | ||
the break saying you know if our subpoenas are toothless then we have | ||
absolutely no power so it's like the same language. | ||
But J6 committee had tons of power. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Forcing people to testify and threatening them with prison over this. | ||
And now they're in prison. | ||
I mean, Navarro was in prison. | ||
Bannon's in prison, you know. | ||
But House Republicans' position is basically, we don't want this to be in the news cycle and we would rather focus on whatever's going on with Biden. | ||
That's exactly right. | ||
They do not want to take anything away from the debate and the debacle. | ||
And, of course, with this, they're telling in the spin, of course, is that, well, it's just going to prove what we already know, what we saw on the debate screen, that that Biden is inept. | ||
But the point is, is the defiance of the law. | ||
It's not necessarily what's on that. | ||
I think what it's going to show, I think the reason they're laying down on the train tracks, I think it's going to show Yes, ma'am. | ||
how inept he is and that he's got either attorneys or advisors in there in the | ||
meeting telling him what to say and also I think some of the things could have | ||
been left out from the transcripts that's what I think there's a lot of | ||
that. Didn't they already say that the transcripts were edited? Yes ma'am. | ||
Yeah I mean I think to a certain extent proving what we already know. | ||
And that's illegal, too. | ||
That's illegal, too. | ||
Completely. | ||
And you have also the FBI tampered with the Mar-a-Lago seized evidence. | ||
Yeah. | ||
With the cover letters? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
I think to a certain extent, proving what we already know is kind of key right now. | ||
I mean, all of the conservatives that I know are like, yes, there is something Wrong with Biden. | ||
He seems different. | ||
He's not performing as well. | ||
But having it on stage for everyone to see seems to have had a really big effect on independent and more progressive voters. | ||
I mean, I think to a certain extent, the same thing is the case with seeing Merrick Garland face the same kind of consequences as Steve Bannon for allegedly committing what is being told to us is a crime. | ||
If we have to answer this question of executive privilege, we should do that, or they should have to treat their players the same way they treat ours. | ||
So in 2020, on May 29th, thousands of far leftists in D.C. | ||
ripped down the barricades around the White House, firebombed the White House grounds, torching a guard post, and set fire to St. | ||
John's Church. | ||
The photo, the aerial shot of D.C. | ||
shows smoke rising up around the White House. | ||
It was shocking to watch that. | ||
Shocking to watch, and the Republicans did nothing. | ||
So one of the challenges I see is... Is our former leadership, yeah. | ||
I can certainly understand this argument where it's like, hold on, we're winning politically because Biden's fumbling. | ||
Yeah, I'm sorry. | ||
I look at the media and I'm like, they're doing that on purpose. | ||
They intentionally did this. | ||
You're never going to convince me. | ||
That in 2020, when Atlantic wrote, stay alive, Joe Biden, Democrats need little more from you than your corporeal presence. | ||
They wrote that they were concerned in 2020, the man was going to die. | ||
He was campaigning from his basement. | ||
His health concerns have been around since before he got elected in 2020. | ||
Now they're saying, oh, we had no idea this was happening. | ||
And the Republican leadership saying this is a good thing for us doing exact going along exactly with the Democrats plan. | ||
And their allies and media with their plan. | ||
What I see is a lot of people are concerned that after the 2020 insurrection from the far left at the White House, where they forced the president into an emergency bunker and tried to burn down a historic church, Republicans did nothing. | ||
There was no Summer of Love Commission. | ||
The worst riots this country had seen in five decades. | ||
Oh, he got me! | ||
The worst riots we've seen in five decades and nothing was done. | ||
Not a thing. | ||
I said, where's the 529 Commission? | ||
Why aren't Republicans creating a commission to force people to testify as to why all of these law enforcement across the country stood down and allowed this to happen? | ||
Why was the president forced into a bunker? | ||
Why isn't the mayor of DC, Nancy Pelosi, or anyone else involved in this jurisdiction, why are they not being called to answer these questions the way Don Jr. | ||
was, or Steve Bannon was, or Peter Navarro was? | ||
Why is Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon now in prison over this? | ||
And once again, the Republicans are like, We'll do nothing. | ||
For me, it's hard to say beyond the Democrats are bad. | ||
Why should people vote Republican down ticket? | ||
Now, Donald Trump is a bit more fierce. | ||
People like that. | ||
But congressional Republicans, they earn very, very little. | ||
They never get the job done. | ||
There's a small handful that we cheer for and that we respect. | ||
And when Rep Luna says, This is the order of operations, right? | ||
We said, here's a subpoena. | ||
They denied it. | ||
We said, you're in contempt. | ||
They say, so what? | ||
We say, criminal referral. | ||
They say, so what? | ||
We say, inherent contempt. | ||
And our leadership is saying, no, we don't want to do that. | ||
So nothing gets done. | ||
I have very little confidence that if the Republicans win anything in November, anything gets done. | ||
And you had a lot of prominent personalities In the midterm saying, even if Republicans win, they will do nothing. | ||
And while we have seen some stuff from a small handful, like I've mentioned, you know, we like what Luna's doing and Meg Gates as well. | ||
We are not seeing anything near the level of what Democrats did with the J6 committee. | ||
You had Raskin. | ||
Go before this committee and broadcast on television that I personally was advocating for people to go down on January 6th, which is a fabrication, an outright lie. | ||
This guy's going on and lying about me. | ||
And I say to the Republicans, hey, can any of you do anything? | ||
And they say, no, no. | ||
So the challenge now is we hear this every time in the midterms. | ||
Why did Republicans barely win a majority? | ||
Well, unfortunately, the narrative is and the reason why the Libertarian Party has so many right-leaning individuals is because even if Republicans win, they're not going to do it. | ||
Same reason that in England and France that the conservatives are being thrown out in droves because they ran on it and they didn't produce. | ||
I can't argue with anything you said. | ||
Going back to Luna's original proposal though, why we need to move forward with that. | ||
Americans want their pizzas in 30 minutes or less. | ||
And that's about our attention span. | ||
This will not carry us to the convention. | ||
This will not carry us to the election. We need to keep piling on because there's | ||
so much out there, so much corruption. | ||
And we just... Go ahead. I'm sorry. That's why you're in office, to take action. Right. And | ||
here's what happens with these people. There's that stupid fly. Is it a fly or you think it's a drone? | ||
CIA drone. | ||
It's one of those green flies, so they're extra aggressive. | ||
Oh, is that it? | ||
I don't know. | ||
unidentified
|
Anyway, we got horse flies. | |
They'll come at you in the barn. | ||
They just assign to you once you walk in. | ||
But Republicans are Gutless. | ||
Here's what they do. | ||
They go home, they throw the red meat out the Reagan Day or the Lincoln Day dinners, or the MAGA dinners now, and they say, this is what we got to do. | ||
We got, you know, Nancy Pelosi, you know, she's making 60% return. | ||
I mean, there's people making 300% return on their stock. | ||
Go to the Wales site and look it up. | ||
Unusual Wales? | ||
Yeah. | ||
And she's just kind of right in the middle. | ||
And I mean, there's Republicans that are doing that, and there's Democrats, and it's all just feeding at the trough. | ||
You know, my stockbroker manages my $6,000 fund that I have very well, and that's about it. | ||
We continue down this path, and then we come back to D.C., and what do we do? | ||
We vote us down the river every dadgum time. | ||
You get a 3,000-page bill, you read to page 32, oh, that takes care of all my projects back home. | ||
And I agrees with a few lobbyists on K Street or whoever my wife and or girlfriend would work for, you know, and the whole program. | ||
My daughter works for this firm. | ||
We're going to take care of them. | ||
And then they quit. | ||
And that's why we're $32 trillion in debt. | ||
We had a trillion dollars every hundred days and we do not, we failed to address it. | ||
We keep kicking the can down the road. | ||
So when we get the power, we're going to do this. | ||
Well, guess what? | ||
We got the power now and we're not falling through. | ||
Is it likely to pass that Merrick Garland will be fined? | ||
I think it's a toss-up. | ||
I feel like it only takes a handful of defectors. | ||
I just take two or three. | ||
And you've got to look at the numbers too. | ||
Thomas Massey, his lovely wife, just passed away. | ||
Brian Mast's daddy died. | ||
So those two are gone. | ||
I mean, they're not here. | ||
And it just, life happens. | ||
Somebody's going to get sick. | ||
Somebody's going to happen. | ||
So, you know, we're three or four people in the majority. | ||
Somebody forgets to come vote or something, or they're hung over in their office or whatever. | ||
I mean, you know, there's 435, literally. | ||
Republicans have a majority by four seats or something. | ||
Yes, ma'am. | ||
I mean, it's extremely narrow. | ||
I remember this was happening with the Mayorkas impeachment vote, that there were, you know, three people who were adamantly against voting for the impeachment. | ||
And on the day of the first vote, you know, a couple of people who were in favor couldn't be there. | ||
I think maybe Andy Biggs. | ||
I can't remember who. | ||
So that the day that they could come back and vote, you know, it changed things. | ||
Not that it went anywhere in the Senate, but it's such a narrow margin that really you need a lot of consensus to get things through. | ||
Does the Republican Party in—the Republicans in the House tend to be cooperative, or do you feel like there's a big division between them? | ||
There's a lot of division, and Speaker Johnson has to take into consideration just every day that he could go to the floor and we could lose—he would lose the speakership, literally. | ||
I mean, you famously got checked by Kevin McCarthy during the last Speakership battle, so I always felt like there was some kind of contention there. | ||
Yeah, well, I voted him out. | ||
I was the one that voted him out. | ||
I guess I was. | ||
Yeah, but he really did, like, I mean, I don't know what happened, but it looked like he kind of elbow-checked him. | ||
Yeah, NPR was the ones who reported that, actually, the lady from NPR. | ||
She's a very nice little lady, and I know they're liberal, but she's always standing there with her little tape recorder and her mic, and I always want to make sure she gets, because when they talk to me, they, you know, she was sort of off to the side, you know, and everybody knows her, and so I was talking to her, and then that happened, and I remember she said, I've never seen that happen before, and I was like, I was like, what the heck? | ||
And he denied it, right? | ||
Yeah, because I fell right into her. | ||
He said, like, maybe we bumped elbows. | ||
He said we didn't. | ||
And then he said, well, it's a tight haul. | ||
Then maybe we touched elbows. | ||
And then, you know, by then it was out of control what was going on. | ||
You know, a lot of people were coming down on Matt Gaetz. | ||
I think what you guys did in voting against him was the right move. | ||
I love that. | ||
100% the right move. | ||
And it burned a billion dollars in IOUs for these lobbyists, these corporations. | ||
And that feels good. | ||
Well, and also you got to remember, we had gone home a month before the big budgetary budget vote. | ||
So all we did was they came back a week to decide that. | ||
And, you know, we should have been there a month working that out. | ||
We haven't passed a budget in over 30 years. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
And I mean, just imagine your business, your church, your synagogue, your charity or whatever didn't have a budget. | ||
You know, it's just it's mind boggling. | ||
And that's what we do. | ||
We pass these continued resolutions. | ||
And so what that does, it continues the bad policies before and loads up your junk. | ||
You know, we have departments and projects and things that aren't even there anymore, Tim, and they get still get | ||
funded. | ||
You know, and where does that money go? | ||
Our Pentagon account account for over a half a trillion dollars in assets never passed an audit yet. | ||
What do we do to punish them? | ||
2040 new billion dollars. | ||
I mean, the war pimps at the Pentagon are going to get there no matter what. | ||
And if you look at what happened when I voted against every dollar going to Ukraine and dad gum, when when they gave | ||
them our missile defense system, What did we have to do? | ||
We had to, by rule, and we should have, replenished ours. | ||
And guess who owned stock in that? | ||
Members of both parties that served on that committee that knew about that ahead of time. | ||
And they ended up, oh, magically, they just owned stock in that company. | ||
You know, it's just, it never stops. | ||
It never stops. | ||
And the American public, though, needs to get out. | ||
You know, they need to get out, and they need to start Getting involved in these primaries and putting people in there that believe in this country. | ||
Let's jump to this next story. | ||
We got big news. | ||
Cook Political Report. | ||
Today we're making six changes to our electoral college ratings. | ||
Arizona, toss-up to lean Republican. | ||
Georgia, toss-up to lean Republican. | ||
Minnesota, likely Democrat to lean Democrat. | ||
Nebraska, second likely Democrat to lean Democrat. | ||
New Hampshire is likely to lean Democrat. | ||
And Nevada is a toss-up to lean Republican. | ||
This, of course, following the disastrous debate and Joe Biden's performance. | ||
So here's your updated 270 to win, electoral college map showing Republicans sitting at a likely 268 already. | ||
If this polling holds based on Joe Biden, Trump needs win only one more state. | ||
In fact, if he somehow managed to win one district in Maine or in Nebraska, which he wouldn't, Then he wins, he gets 270. | ||
But Trump, it looks like he's doing well in, I believe he's doing well in Pennsylvania, relative to Joe Biden, and then he's slightly up in Michigan and Wisconsin, but that's a little bit closer. | ||
Wisconsin has always been, during this whole cycle, Wisconsin has been pro-Biden. | ||
And now it's like 0.5 down. | ||
The labor, I think, you need to look at labor. | ||
The labor bosses Um, hate that all they want to do. | ||
They're like the old state legislature. | ||
I served in Tennessee. | ||
All of those old guys, all they want to do is get through the next election. | ||
All they want to do is get through their retirement. | ||
And, but their members, you know, I know a lot of Teamsters. | ||
Heck, the Teamsters have endorsed me in the past. | ||
Um, they, when I was in the state legislature, they, you see them at church on Sunday. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
They'll drink a little beer. | ||
You'll see them out hunting, hunting and fishing with their, their wife and their kids. | ||
And, and. | ||
They do not like that national scene, and I think you're going to see some of that peeling off in some of these states, like Michigan, like Wisconsin. | ||
Wisconsin, they make Harley-Davidson. | ||
There's nothing more American. | ||
Used to be nothing more American than that. | ||
I've owned a few in my life. | ||
And so I think you're going to see a change in that. | ||
The head of the Teamsters is going to be speaking at the Republican National Convention. | ||
The Teamsters were a Republican. | ||
You remember the history of the Teamsters with Hoffa. | ||
They got Hoffa out of jail and then they endorsed Nixon and they were considered sort of the Republican The Republican Union, more or less. | ||
But you're seeing more and more of that. | ||
And Trump knows how to deal with them, brother. | ||
That's his deal. | ||
Well, he's been working with unions for years in construction. | ||
He's a tough-talking Yankee from New York. | ||
Yeah, he knows how to do it. | ||
My bigger concern with Michigan and Pennsylvania is going to be the shadow campaign. | ||
That we will likely see from the Democratic Party, that Republicans will be unable to stop. | ||
And even if they file a lawsuit, the Supreme Court will cower with their tails between their legs and refuse to take up their responsibility to answer these questions. | ||
Just like they did last time. | ||
Exactly. | ||
They refused to take up the case of what was it, Texas suing Pennsylvania? | ||
The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. | ||
So I'm concerned that with Michigan and Pennsylvania, maybe Wisconsin. | ||
Wisconsin had issues as well. | ||
So these are the three states right now in the polling that Trump needs to win. | ||
Well, unfortunately, Pennsylvania is acting in violation of its own state constitution with universal mail-in voting. | ||
A lower court ruled, and the Supreme Court of the state said, no, it's fine. | ||
Clearly, it is in defiance of how their constitution operates. | ||
There was no answer by the Supreme Court as to whether or not this state was breaking its own rules as per the U.S. | ||
Constitution. | ||
The state legislature shall decide. | ||
So we had a bunch of states that were in dispute, and the governors decided, we're going to run these elections the way we want. | ||
Supreme Court refused to answer and now we don't have these answers and the next election is four months away. | ||
My concern is... | ||
We will see tenfold what we saw last time. | ||
Already Missouri has filed a lawsuit citing original jurisdiction to the Supreme Court over New York's prosecution and gagging of Donald Trump. | ||
That's the first one, four months out. | ||
I think it's very likely, come October, we're going to have six or seven more, I don't know. | ||
Probably way more than that. | ||
But I imagine by the time the election's happening, all the courts are going to be buried in lawsuits and they're going to refuse to answer them. | ||
So what do we do? | ||
Because, you know, I think you mentioned earlier that Democrats know the process better or something to that effect. | ||
Well, they wrote the rules. | ||
Democrats are not playing. | ||
They're not playing the game as to the spirit of the game. | ||
They're playing the rules to win. | ||
So they're, you know, it's a little shady here and there, and everyone understands that's not what an election is, but we're in line with how it was written down, so it's allowed. | ||
That's democracy, they say. | ||
So what do we do come November if we can't get definitive answers, or worse, if these states are clearly in some kind of contention over the results, but they say Biden anyway? | ||
I talked to our previous speaker about that, and they told me, oh, we got, you know, pat me on the head, basically, and told me, we got this, don't you worry about it. | ||
And the reality is, we don't have it. | ||
The boater harvesting, for instance, that process to me is crooked as a dog's leg, but it's legal in some states. | ||
Not legal in Tennessee. | ||
We don't have to deal with cleanest elections in the country. | ||
But it's legal in some states. | ||
You know, if that's the rules, let's play them. | ||
Let's play them. | ||
Let's get in there. | ||
Politics is a contact sport, brother. | ||
It's not a game of touch, and we need to get aggressive on these things. | ||
We need to devote the money, and we did not devote the money to these state supreme courts where people ran for those offices. | ||
Not where they're appointed, but they ran for those offices. | ||
Oh, we don't want to dirty our hands. | ||
We've got to quit with this so-called compromise. | ||
This compromise is what gets us in trouble. | ||
Every time we're in the minority, or in the majority, we always talk compromise. | ||
The Democrats didn't talk compromise when they were in the majority last time. | ||
Pelosi, that word never came out of her dadgum mouth. | ||
No, they put people in prison. | ||
And that's what they're doing. | ||
And we've got to play hardball. | ||
We've got to play tough. | ||
And we don't. | ||
And we allow this thing to go on. | ||
We allow the money changers, the chambers of commerce, those crowds, the billionaire ruling class, who do not care about us. | ||
They're always going to be on the tarmac greeting the president, no matter who the president is. | ||
Always remember that. | ||
I think the problem, though, is Republicans are five steps behind every time. | ||
And so in 2020—this is fascinating because— They're playing chess, we're playing checkers. | ||
That's right. | ||
And it's funny because the meme is Trump is playing chess and the Democrats are playing checkers. | ||
It's certainly not the case. | ||
In 2020, you know, we're looking at all the economic data. | ||
You had Moody's Analytics, for instance, saying the economics of Donald Trump suggest a victory in 2020 and a very slim possibility of a major victory. | ||
You know, a huge margin. | ||
You take a look at the results. | ||
Bellwether County's in favor of Trump. | ||
You take a look at just the general predictive factors. | ||
We're very favorable for Trump, and he's still lost. | ||
So the Republicans are thinking we're doing X, Y, and Z, A, B, and C, and that's what gets you the presidency. | ||
And then for the first time ever, I think it's, I could be wrong about this, but a president has never won Ohio and Florida but lost the election. | ||
There's something like that. | ||
And what was it? | ||
How many Bellwether counties are there? | ||
18 or whatever? | ||
Trump had almost all of them, 95%. | ||
Still lost. | ||
And I think the reason is fairly obvious. | ||
Democrats weren't playing this game of, let's convince people to vote for us. | ||
They were playing the, so we win when we get the most cards with names written on them? | ||
Let's play that game. | ||
Donald Trump's playing the game of, I did good, vote for me. | ||
And so, many people did. | ||
He got more votes than his previous election, and then a president who's gotten more votes second time has never lost. | ||
But Democrats went ballot harvesting with universal mail-in voting. | ||
Now, Republicans are saying, hey, if they're doing this, we should too. | ||
And Democrats are doing something entirely different that we don't know about. | ||
Some suggest it's going to be mass illegal immigrant voting. | ||
Well, that's a big part of it. | ||
Trump suggests it was already happening in 2016. | ||
But here's my question. | ||
If Democrats win, How do you actually check to see if there was illicit voting going on? | ||
You won't because... There's no checks. | ||
There's no fail-safes at all. | ||
The SAVE Act will not pass the Senate. | ||
And, you know, again, you're asking me to... You're asking the Justice Department, which is, as I said, crooked as a dog's leg. | ||
to do the right thing and they're not going to do that. | ||
They're going to protect the swamp. They're going to protect | ||
the ruling class because that's who put them in power and that's how they know how to keep that in power. | ||
And that's why we have to put so many points on the board. | ||
All my dear evangelical Christians and sportsmen | ||
decided 20 million of us decided to stay home last election because of a mean tweet. | ||
And I've said, we've got to put so many points on the board, they can't steal it from us. | ||
It has to be so overwhelming, Tim, that they cannot do that. | ||
But we've got to interject. | ||
We've got to make sure our base is there. | ||
You got him. | ||
You got him. | ||
I'd take him out. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't think he's playing possum. | |
He comes back from that. | ||
This fly's been terrorizing us for some time. | ||
There you go. | ||
That's how guts that time. | ||
If he gets up from that, he deserves it. | ||
I think I broke my taser. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Sorry, dude. | ||
Well, you know it's served its purpose. | ||
Anyway, continue. | ||
But anyway, we need to put enough points on the board so they can't steal it. | ||
We've got a... | ||
Energize folks. | ||
We've got to make sure that their votes count. | ||
And I want to give you an example. | ||
Can I give an example? | ||
Absolutely. | ||
So, there was a bill. | ||
I can't remember. | ||
It was three or four years ago. | ||
And I'm a Christian. | ||
I'm not a very good one. | ||
I'm on the forgiven end. | ||
But I'm a born-again Christian. | ||
And so, I called the head of the Southern Baptist Convention. | ||
And I went through the rigmarole. | ||
I finally found it. | ||
It was this guy down in Texas. | ||
It was a few years back. | ||
And there was a bill out that I thought put into place. | ||
I'm not a lawyer, but I heard enough talking of this chess game. | ||
It put it into place where it set up, it could set a precedent where say a preacher was saying something that they could label as hate speech. | ||
Well, they could go in, take their tax exempt status, deadbolt. | ||
That's what I think they're up to eventually. | ||
Well, I call the head of Southern Baptist convention. | ||
I explained this to him and I live in Knoxville, Tennessee, dude, I am the Remember big cowboy belt buckles? | ||
You know, they got a big center, a big piece of turquoise right in the center. | ||
I'm in the turquoise of that. | ||
I live in the Bible belt. | ||
You know, there's probably 80 or 90 Baptist churches in, in my County, in the surrounding area. | ||
So I called the head of the Southern Baptist convention. | ||
I say, Hey, this is going on. | ||
I did not ever hear from a single Baptist minister, anybody on this thing. | ||
And he said to me, he said, Tim, that happened, you know, in like around November or December. | ||
And honestly, that's our busy time of the year, you know, Thanksgiving and Christmas. | ||
I said, Preacher, I said, you're not going to be busy when the government comes and puts a deadbolt on that dadgum door, because that's where it's headed. | ||
And I said, you guys, that's no excuse. | ||
And I lit up a bunch of preachers. | ||
All I did was make people mad. | ||
But at some point, we've got to realize, we've got to quit, you know, oh, I don't want to be, anybody call me out on Facebook. | ||
I don't want somebody at work. | ||
I don't care. | ||
You've got to go in there. | ||
First Amendment's a great thing, Bill. | ||
You say something somebody doesn't like, you know, let them have it, man. | ||
Stand up. | ||
These people bully us. | ||
You know, I used to, in college, I was in college in the 80s and the Reagan revolution. | ||
And I had a psychology professor and I would argue with her every day because she was always attacking Reagan. | ||
She's always, and I know her name, and I've Googled where she's at now, and she's at some do-gooder private school. | ||
And I would walk out of there, and every day, somebody would say, man, I'm really glad you took it to her, man. | ||
I really agree with you. | ||
I was like, dude, girl, why didn't you help me? | ||
Why didn't you jump in? | ||
Well, I just didn't want to. | ||
I'm a little shy. | ||
And that's the way we are, man. | ||
And good folks, honestly. | ||
They're too busy. | ||
They're raising their kids. | ||
They're taking them to soccer practice. | ||
They're taking them to football practice. | ||
Whatever. | ||
They're cheerleading or whatever. | ||
And they're too busy to get involved. | ||
And that's why we lose these elections. | ||
I want to jump to this website and talk about this story, something that we and many others have been covering since around March. | ||
This is the Social Security Administration's Help America Vote Verification System, and we have you here, Congressman, so I'm curious your thoughts on this. | ||
Are you familiar with HAVV? | ||
Help America Vote Verification? | ||
Yeah. | ||
So we've tracked this for a while. | ||
Choose a week, and this is going to show you. | ||
People who have registered to vote, who do not have an ID, and the outcomes. | ||
In the week ending June 22nd, 2024, the state of Arizona had 47,928 attempted registrations with no ID. | ||
11,374 did not have a match in the system. | ||
13 were dead. | ||
1,928 attempted registrations with no ID. | ||
11,374 did not have a match in the system. | ||
13 were dead. | ||
36,536 were found to be single matches and alive. | ||
Now, we don't know how this is happening or why it's happening or why the numbers are all different. | ||
What the SSA says is that this is only for when someone makes a registration attempt and has no ID, the DMV or the MVA, whichever, whatever you call it, can submit their name and the last four of their socials to see if they're in the system. | ||
How is it that Arizona had 11,374 attempts where the name and the SSN did not match? | ||
Something doesn't seem to make sense. | ||
I mean, 47,000 people in a single week? | ||
That's a lot of people to register to vote in a single week. | ||
Maybe that's normal. | ||
But you look at other states, California, 2,000. | ||
Why are we seeing such large numbers? | ||
Now, this has been going on for a long time. | ||
211,419 in the United States, with 35,982 having no match. | ||
Certainly, some of these people may have written down the wrong number, the wrong name, or the name was spelled wrong. | ||
Look at Tennessee. | ||
Typed in wrong. | ||
Tennessee's zero. | ||
Yeah, of course it is. | ||
At 0-0-0 across the board. | ||
Trey Hargis, the guy's name, he does a great job. | ||
I served in the legislature. | ||
Oh, West Virginia's also zero. | ||
Missouri. | ||
Take a look at this one from Missouri. | ||
This is April 13th. | ||
Missouri has 46,938. | ||
Now, Texas, which also has insane numbers, 24,000 coming back with no match. | ||
And hold on, 4,492 are dead. | ||
Now, Texas, which also has insane numbers, 24,000 coming back with no match, and hold | ||
on, 4,492 are dead. | ||
Now how did nearly 5,000 people who are dead submit registrations? | ||
Just like sudden plague, you know? | ||
There's been no answer for this. | ||
And it's not even being brought up by members of Congress. | ||
I don't know what the answer or the solution is. | ||
Perhaps there needs to be, I think if you look at February, let's see, maybe February 17th. | ||
I'll try and find this one because it's been a while since we covered this. | ||
Missouri has 23,253 dead people attempted to register. | ||
The answer for this that we get is that they're doing voter roll cleanup. | ||
Totally fine, okay, sure. | ||
But then how would you have 6,000 non-matches on your voter rolls? | ||
Doesn't seem to make sense. | ||
Texas denied this and said, we don't know what you're talking about, we did not register this many people, it's not happening. | ||
The SSA website for HAVV says it's only for when someone registers, so perhaps it's being misused? | ||
We're hearing a lot about the SAVE Act, illegal immigrants voting, but you'll notice it's a lot of these border states, Missouri, Arizona, 31,000 attempted registrations. | ||
What we know is that when someone comes to this country illegally, the Biden administration is granting them work visas really, really quickly, which grant them social security numbers. | ||
Let's say that these individuals don't have any idea how this country works, don't know what the laws are, so they go to file their paperwork for their work visa, or for their work permit or whatever, and they get automatically registered based on their information whether they wanted to or not. | ||
In several jurisdictions in Maryland, in California, New York attempted this, got shot down, DC does this, non-citizens can vote. | ||
Allegedly local races only. | ||
That's what they say. | ||
Allegedly. | ||
Now here's the point. | ||
They're going to have to register to vote, right? | ||
Correct. | ||
And then when they go to vote for their local elections, they're given one ballot, right? | ||
And then they end up voting on everything. | ||
That's correct. | ||
If we do see non-citizens vote en masse and Democrats end up winning, there will be no audit, there will be no fact-checking, and there will never be a way to figure out if this really happened or not. | ||
In Bush v. Gore, they pre-filed lawsuits. | ||
What happened in the last election, President Trump's people, there are five law firms in the country that specialize in this that are the king, you know, they're not They're the go-tos. | ||
They're not $45-an-hour attorneys. | ||
They come in. | ||
And in Bush v. Gore, they had pre-filed lawsuits in a lot of these areas, Chicago, areas we knew that there'd be stealing of elections in the past to keep it from happening, this, the hanging chad, all that crazy nonsense. | ||
And this is what we've got to do this time. | ||
The Trump folks have to have these people under contract and ready to go. | ||
They did not the last time. | ||
They treated it like it was a, you know, a talk show type thing. | ||
And, you know, they wanted to fight it out on the television and they needed to be fighting it out in the courts. | ||
The Social Security Administration operates under the executive branch, or? | ||
I do not know. | ||
It's the Social Security Administration, so aren't all the federal agencies under the executive branch? | ||
Yeah, I'd say, yeah. | ||
Is there anything you can do? | ||
I wonder if there's a simple letter that can be sent saying, we're just trying to understand what these numbers are and represent. | ||
Perhaps you can give us some insight as to how these registrations come in. | ||
Is there something like that that you could do? | ||
I could write a letter to any of them, but would they respond? | ||
And what do I have to hold over their head? | ||
Yeah, nothing. | ||
Subpoena? | ||
Yes, because subpoenas are very, very effective when they come from Republicans. | ||
I don't understand how this is so blatantly obvious that there is something wrong here. | ||
These numbers don't make sense. | ||
They say it's voter roll. | ||
In some instances, they say voter roll cleanup. | ||
So every week you're doing voter roll cleanup to the tune of 50,000 people. | ||
Yeah, that's a lot. | ||
And in some instances, we're looking at 20 to 30 percent don't match in the system. | ||
So let me just get this straight. | ||
So let's go to June 22nd, 2024. | ||
And we'll jump over to Arizona, which matters significantly for this race. | ||
You're going to tell me that 11,374 people on your voter rolls don't match with the Social Security Administration system? | ||
They don't reuse numbers. | ||
When you're naming numbers in the system, you come back as deceased or alive. | ||
So, if this is true, we can assume two things. | ||
One of three things. | ||
Arizona is registering illegal immigrants to vote, and 11,000 didn't have numbers. | ||
We can assume this is voter roll cleanup, and that Arizona somehow had 11,374 people on their voter rolls who don't have a social security number in the system. | ||
Or we can assume that I don't know. | ||
I guess there's an error of some sort and the numbers are being inputted wrong. | ||
I mean, if there's an error and it's happening this regularly, it's obviously a misuse of federal funding and taxpayers should want an answer for that, right? | ||
Like, either this system is broken and not working, so we're just spending money on something that is a waste, or there's something wrong. | ||
If there are 11,000 people that don't have matches, we have to ask ourselves why that is. | ||
I mean, you say this all the time, you know, maybe every once in a while someone misenters their social security number. | ||
But 11,000 times? | ||
About 25% of registrants. | ||
I think we've known this has been broken for a long time. | ||
I mean, there's old jokes about, you know, like dead people voting in Chicago. | ||
I mean, these are like, this is standard. | ||
This is like, you know, a century old because of the way that the Democratic Party machines work. | ||
unidentified
|
And they're just used to being completely unaccountable and not having to answer for it. | |
New York, 5,688 people attempted to register without an ID. | ||
4,417 came back as non-match. | ||
So nearly, we're talking about 90% of those who attempted to register in New York have no match in the Social Security Administration database. | ||
New York, which has had several million illegal immigrants enter there. | ||
New York also, there's no need for, there's no voter ID. | ||
In New York what you do is you just sign your name and your name has to, your name supposedly has to match the signature book. | ||
But there's been times when I've gone to like, because I used to live in New York and I used to live in Brooklyn and before that I lived in the Lower East Side and there was one time in the Lower East Side, this was the Obama election, I went to vote and there were these two old women in front of me and they were trying to vote and they didn't have ID and the poll workers were demanding that they show ID. | ||
And the women were like, oh, I didn't know we needed I.D. | ||
And they were turned away. | ||
And I was like, actually, you guys, you don't need I.D. | ||
Like, you know, there is a law. | ||
You can just sign your name. | ||
It just has to match in the book. | ||
But I've gone to vote in Brooklyn and they can't find my name in the book all of a sudden. | ||
And I've been voting there. | ||
You know, I mean, the only place I was ever registered to vote was in New York. | ||
The way that rule is supposed to work is when they come in and don't have an I.D. | ||
and they sign, they They use a paper ballot. | ||
But you don't need ID in New York. | ||
All you need is your signature. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Well, I'm saying with the city. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
OK. | ||
But the way that was supposed to work was in states that did that in the past, if they didn't have an ID, they would sign up what they call a provisional ballot and they put it off to the side and then they would check their signature with the signatures they had downtown. | ||
And a lot of times they would never even have their ballots cast because if the race was just so if it was a statistical There was no possibility of them, then they'd bring them out and they would count them later. | ||
So it's a, it's actually, it was actually an honorable process, but it got abused, of course. | ||
And, and now with computers and our technology we have now, there's no, no shape, form or fashion way they should be able to steal an election. | ||
Also, our poll workers particularly well trained. | ||
I will tell you this, in Tennessee, our computers are not connected to downtown. | ||
They're not connected. | ||
I mean, I'm sorry, our voter machines are not connected to the internet in any shape, form, or fashion. | ||
Well, they shouldn't be. | ||
They should not be. | ||
Well, they've said that about many states, and then they found that some of them are actually connected. | ||
So the week ending June 1st, Pennsylvania had 104,250 registration attempts. | ||
6,582 came back no match, 87 deceased. | ||
87 deceased I guess kind of makes sense. | ||
And 97,563 had matches in the Social Security Administration database. | ||
That is a lot of people registering to vote. | ||
I just gotta say, you know what I think's gonna happen? | ||
Scott Pressler's hard at work in Pennsylvania. | ||
Sure. | ||
I think what's going to happen is Joe Biden and Democrats are going to win slightly, and they're going to say the polling was wrong. | ||
Wow. | ||
Or they swap out Joe Biden, and it's someone who narrowly wins, and there will never be an investigation into this. | ||
No. | ||
There'll never be an investigation into it. | ||
I think there won't be an investigation into it, probably, even if Trump is elected. | ||
And I hate to be, you know, black-pilled about it, but the reality is that it's just going to be something that is thrown aside. | ||
Oh, we won this election, so let's forget about it. | ||
Let's forget about it, yeah. | ||
That's what I say. | ||
We have very short memories. | ||
One door pizza is 30 minutes or less, and that's about our dadgum attention span. | ||
That's why you had that meme from Arne McIntyre saying, Lord, give me the Donald Trump that exists in the mind of delusional leftists. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
Go ahead, I'm sorry. | ||
I was going to say, if Trump came in and was like, bring on Vivek, start ripping through these systems and getting rid of the corruption. | ||
I was in the locker room this morning and a Democrat was early and he said, Tim, I just hope y'all don't let Trump do what we think he's going to do. | ||
You know, and they think he's this Hitler-esque thing coming in. | ||
It's just, the Constitution's there to protect us. | ||
It protects us all. | ||
The Bill of Rights. | ||
I mean, there is rules in place. | ||
This is not going to be that. | ||
But, you know, it's going to be law and order. | ||
There are Democrats that I view as paranoid schizophrenics in Congress who believe the psychobabble of the evil Order givers. | ||
You've got Democrats who know they're lying and know they're evil. | ||
Nancy Pelosi, I think, is a despicable, evil human being. | ||
She makes money off of Congress. | ||
She lies about it every day. | ||
She knows she's full of it. | ||
She's vindictive. | ||
And she needs to just leave. | ||
She needs to get out. | ||
Then you've got Republicans that are complicit. | ||
They just allow it to happen. | ||
Because they got their piece of the pie, dude. | ||
And they do not care about the country. | ||
All they care about is them getting re-elected. | ||
Completely agree. | ||
And so what you end up with is, like what you said this Democrat saying, don't let them do it. | ||
When Donald Trump was in office, and we had the worst riots we saw in 50 years, and he did nothing, what were you hoping—what were you scared he was going to do? | ||
Were you worried he was going to roll out tanks and start arresting people? | ||
Because he didn't do that when they were trying to burn down federal buildings. | ||
What do you think he's going to do now? | ||
He's going to get in. | ||
He's going to appoint some people who are marginally bad. | ||
We're all going to complain that he's got some good people, but then he hired some people who suck. | ||
Then we're gonna get a marginally good second term, but it's not gonna be enough to do away with the corruption that we've seen at the highest levels, and then what happens after four years? | ||
And I think so much of this is a cultural problem, right? | ||
Every time that our institutions fail us, and every time we sit here and talk about the fact that our politicians are making money off of being in Congress, I think the American people are the ones who suffer. | ||
They become less enchanted with the system. | ||
I will tell you this time, I think he realizes it's so big that he has to Tear down these agencies. | ||
Department of Education. | ||
There's not one bureaucrat in Washington, D.C. | ||
that has taught a kid how to read in Claiborne County in East Tennessee. | ||
Well, they switched the way that reading was taught, too. | ||
Yeah, well, but my point, exactly, because one size does not fit all. | ||
Yeah, went for it. | ||
What works in Washington, D.C. | ||
or Los Angeles sure as heck doesn't work in East Tennessee. | ||
And so you shut those departments down, you send the money to the states, you hold the states accountable, and then that's where voters will hold the people accountable, is in their states. | ||
And then these bad states will fail, people will continue to leave, and they will continue to collapse. | ||
The same way with the Department of Justice, any of those agencies, just you take them and you go to the bottom level, the Pentagon, everybody down to a two-star general, out. | ||
Have you asked, you know, when this Democrat comes to you and says, don't let Trump do what he thinks he's going to do, have you asked any of these people? | ||
You know, because my response would be, you realize that y'all put Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon in prison for defying a subpoena. | ||
Right. | ||
And we won't even put Merrick Garland in prison for doing the same thing. | ||
Have you asked yourself? | ||
We'll let him slap his hand. | ||
Have you looked in the mirror perhaps and asked yourself if you're the baddies? | ||
Do they consider this? | ||
When you brought this up, I was thinking of Rachel Maddow and she was like, they're going to lock us all up. | ||
And everyone's like, you mean the way you are? | ||
You're saying that you're accusing us of doing what you're already doing. | ||
That's the constant thing that I hear. | ||
But it's because they know they do it. | ||
We got to remember when we get in power to act appropriately. | ||
I was in the state legislature for years in Tennessee and the Democrats controlled everything. | ||
And then finally we took everything. | ||
And I can remember when the Democrats, when I first got elected, one of the old house members says, boys, I was here when we took it over. | ||
I was here when the Democrats took it back and they fired everybody. | ||
And I said, y'all remember how this is? | ||
And sure enough, you know, we get, we started that same old deal and we start this compromise stuff again, compromises while we don't control the Panama canal, while both ends of it are controlled by the Chinese. | ||
While we're $35 trillion in debt. | ||
Just go through the list of compromises that we've done. | ||
We need to start, the American public has given us a mandate if we are fortunate enough to win, as we should this time, unless we blow it. | ||
And we need to take full advantage of that because we are only going to have one more bite at this apple. | ||
In the history of the world, it always goes through oppression, revolution, some success, and then you figure you can vote yourself the largest of the treasury, and then you start all the way back around. | ||
It's never been. | ||
All we've done is delay it some, and we might have an opportunity to turn back that clock if we just had the guts to do it. | ||
Go ahead, I'm sorry. | ||
Well, I'm just going to move on. | ||
Go, go, you're due. | ||
We're going to jump to this next story from the Postmillennial. | ||
Jon Stewart claims concern about Joe Biden's health is new and urgent information suggests replacing him at convention. | ||
There are no participation trophies in endgame democracy. | ||
And once again, to shout out to Bhatia Ungar Sargon, who said, we are at the stage of coup against your duly elected nominee point of saving democracy. | ||
Jon Stewart on his show advocated for effectively overturning the primaries, the will of the actual voters for who the Democrat nominee would be. | ||
...holding an open convention where political elites would instead decide who the nominee should be. | ||
You know, there are a lot of countries that have processes like this. | ||
North Korea comes to mind. | ||
China comes to mind. | ||
And that is what Democrats and people like Jon Stewart are proposing. | ||
The people should not choose who is going to be in charge. | ||
Only the elites will. | ||
And this is the process we are now beginning to see unfold. | ||
And I wonder if it was the intended condition that Joe Biden would stay in as long as possible. | ||
They'd intentionally put him on a debate that wasn't through the commission of presidential debates so they could control it. | ||
Joe Biden, who everybody knew was suffering mentally. | ||
Would now be in full display for the world to see, and now they act like this is new information, which it's absolutely not. | ||
Because four years ago, they knew Joe Biden was dying, and that's what they feared. | ||
Now they're acting surprised, so they can use this as justification to stop the democratic process for the Democratic Party. | ||
I mean, even before he was elected, Joe Biden had a stroke. | ||
I mean, he has had health concerns in the past that during 2020 were sort of swept under the rug. | ||
And it's interesting to say it's new. | ||
I largely believe that's because Democrats believe their own propaganda. | ||
I mean, on one hand, they know it's not true. | ||
On the other hand, they're like, no, no. | ||
Corinne Jean-Pierre says everything's fine, and so does Rachel Maddow, and so we should continue forward. | ||
And I think this is the long-term solution for them, which is to continue to sort of pretend and deny, oh, it's the Biden White House that covered this up from us, not us, the mainstream media. | ||
It's that shift away to continue to be able to say, oh, we didn't know, oh, this is brain information, when actually they've known all along. | ||
It's a willful ignorance to remain in power. | ||
But during 2020 we saw this clearly and everyone in media saw this because Biden refused to leave the basement. | ||
He gave speeches and held campaign rallies where he spoke to Jeeps that were six feet apart that were socially distanced and it was impossible to tell if there was even anybody in the Jeeps in the first place. | ||
And the Postmillennial has certainly been reporting on this for four years. | ||
We've been reporting on, you know, the way he interacts with Easter bunnies, which is very peculiar, the way he's constantly sniffing children, the way he's stumbling around and really mostly concerned with getting ice cream, the way that he garbles his words. | ||
I mean, these have been memes. | ||
So everyone has been aware of this. | ||
Jon Stewart has been aware of this. | ||
Now, he took some time off. | ||
He only came back for The Daily Show on Monday nights because They were floundering. | ||
They still don't have a permanent host. | ||
So he's out there doing this. | ||
But I did think that his commentary was entirely disingenuous, but about how nobody, you know, essentially, he was saying that nobody knew about Biden's problems and his mental incapacity, which was clear for everyone. | ||
People were saying elder abuse years ago, right? | ||
That was very clear. | ||
But the most disingenuous part is how the Democrats who are screaming about saving democracy. | ||
I don't know if any of you guys saw Becky Pringle, the president of the National Education | ||
Association, which is like the largest union in the country. | ||
And she was freaking out the other day, saying, we need to win all the things. | ||
We need to win all the things. | ||
And she was very vocal about that, saying that this was all for our democracy. | ||
The people who are screaming the loudest about saving the democracy are the ones who are | ||
first in line to disenfranchise American voters of the man that they voted for. | ||
14 million people already voted for Biden in this primary season. | ||
This is the person the Democrats put out there to be their guy. | ||
They put him out there in 2020. | ||
They've been saying this whole time. | ||
They're going to put him out there again. | ||
They're putting him out there now. | ||
Get the voters to vote for him, right? | ||
They pull the one guy who was running in New Hampshire. | ||
They make sure that he can't do anything. | ||
They make sure that RFK can't do anything. | ||
They clear the table so that Biden can do his tap dance routine, only to discover that he can't even move his feet. | ||
So that's the most disingenuous part, is that the people who are screaming for democracy are the ones who are more and more willing to Tell the voters that they can't have that they want and to be elitist, to be not, you know, I think bottom up and middle out, but clearly top down authoritarians. | ||
I think the next 20 years are going to be particularly insane. | ||
And it's because I think millennials are fractured to an extreme degree. | ||
And Gen Z, you know, I don't know, Gen Z is more interesting. | ||
I'm not sure how they're aligning. | ||
They seem to be relatively fractured as well, but it does seem like a lot of Gen Z are actually a bit more based. | ||
The next 20 years are going to be interesting because regardless of birthing trends among the American population, I think there's a lot of millennials who are very, very angry with boomers and the silent generation and their unwillingness to do the job. | ||
The thing about millennial far leftists is that they want the system burnt to the ground. | ||
And I mean that from my perspective. | ||
Their view, or as they would espouse it, is some nonsense about communist utopia or whatever, socialism or something. | ||
Millennials that are more on the right are angry that Republicans are doing nothing to bring justice and equality under the law. | ||
Steve Bannon being a really great example. | ||
You don't gotta like the guy. | ||
There's no arguments to be made there. | ||
The argument is he defied Congress, he goes to prison. | ||
Merrick Garland defies Congress, he doesn't. | ||
People are pissed off. | ||
So the next wave of individuals who begin to run for Congress and get power are going to show up in D.C. | ||
with figurative sledgehammers. | ||
The person who comes after Trump, or the person who comes after that person, is going to be someone with fire in their belly, whether it's left or right. | ||
And it is going to be substantially more dramatic. | ||
Donald Trump says, because you'd be in jail, everybody laughs. | ||
He then gets elected, and he says, we're not going to do that, we're not going to do that. | ||
Because Trump is, I believe he's a late boomer, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
He is a boomer. | ||
And the mentality of many of these individuals is, no, no, no, we don't want to go with that. | ||
And the reason is, boomers in the 80s and 90s, Democrats and Republicans were mostly aligned on everything. | ||
The overlap between the two parties was substantial. | ||
Today, there's no overlap at all. | ||
It's hyperpolarization. | ||
And so you've got these older boomers, Who get their news from MSNBC and CNN, and even Fox News to a certain extent, and they live in this world of, oh, it's not that bad, we're fine. | ||
And then millennials are much more concerned about the direction this country is going, and angry that despite the fact we can see with our own eyes, the Democrats are breaking the law every step of the way, violating the Constitution every step of the way, Republicans aren't doing anything about it. | ||
I imagine the next wave of Republicans in the next four to ten years are going to show up in D.C. | ||
and it is going to be, I don't know, bedlam. | ||
I imagine whoever comes after Donald Trump as president for the Republican side is going to be a massive populist libertarian and the system will be, if not Trump, You get someone like Vivek, and I don't even know, Vivek is a smart guy, he's a calm guy, he's a rational guy, he's a logical guy, but I don't see the rage in Vivek that I see in the Trump movement, the populist movement, and not even necessarily Trump, but these younger guys, and not necessarily so much younger, but I'm talking like dudes that are in their 30s, people who are in their late 30s, maybe some Xennials, Gen Xers, who are asking why it is that we are watching for four years | ||
Why are there people still being held in prison over January 6th who have not been charged with a crime? | ||
And that's true. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And the DOJ keeps arresting people. | ||
Why is it that even if the Supreme Court says you can't forgive the loans, Biden does it anyway? | ||
Why is it when the Supreme Court says you can't use the obstruction charge, they do it anyway? | ||
Why is it that when people walk into a building with no barricades and open doors and the police take selfies with them, they get locked up and we see nothing? | ||
I fear that There are too many people right now who are paying attention to how the system is working, and they're thinking to themselves, there is no system. | ||
When Rep Luna says Merrick Garland, according to how we handle this, should be held in contempt, the DOJ says, cry about it. | ||
What does that say to people like me, the people who watch this show, the people who watch Crowder, the people who watch the news every day and are watching in real time? | ||
The government doesn't function. | ||
The government will not hold anyone accountable. | ||
Democrats do literally anything they want, and Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro are in prison unjustly, and many of these J6ers. | ||
You want to make an argument? | ||
About the people who actually smashed things and fought cops? | ||
Make the argument. | ||
I'm talking about the people who did not know what was going on, who are on the other side of the building, or showed up an hour later, who have been sitting in jail for over a year, and when the Supreme Court says, you can't charge them with this, the DOJ says, we're gonna do it anyway. | ||
Well, it's not just that either. | ||
You have the J6ers who are all from across the country and they're all seeing their trials in Washington, D.C., right? | ||
That's something that happened. | ||
Attorney Maria Medven, I don't know if you guys know who she is. | ||
She's a really interesting person. | ||
She had been representing a J6er and she tried to get the case moved. | ||
And it was denied, and she was telling me that not even that many people had applied to have their cases moved. | ||
Well, the DOJ is being sued for wrongful death, right? | ||
Whoever it is, the police or whoever, being sued for the wrongful death of Ashley Babbitt. | ||
Ashley Babbitt, her hometown is in Southern California, I think San Diego, I don't know for sure. | ||
I was 100 feet away from where I could hear the shots in my head. | ||
How horrifying. | ||
The Department of Justice petitioned to have her case moved to D.C. | ||
and it was granted. | ||
Why? | ||
Why was her case moved to D.C.? | ||
That doesn't make any sense. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
unidentified
|
Because the jury will lock you up regardless of the evidence. | |
Exactly. | ||
And you see the Department of Justice has this hugely long arm. | ||
They're very out of control and it does seem like nobody's really doing anything about that except for You know, a couple of attorneys generals who are really trying. | ||
She's from San Diego. | ||
Yeah, San Diego. | ||
I think this is one of the questions on the table, right? | ||
With the DOJ right now, I think a lot of people are sort of on the defensive. | ||
I think all of the, anyone accused of anything related to January 6th is kind of battling the best they can. | ||
They're using a lot of resources to try and keep themselves out of jail. | ||
They're resisting taking plea deals that are completely skewed against them. | ||
You know, trying not to have to go to trial in front of judges and juries that are politically biased against them. | ||
On the other hand, you know, I think Donald Trump is an example of this. | ||
I think there are a lot of organizations that can see the effect of an overreaching DOJ and know that there's sort of no way forward until... | ||
You know, a new government is installed, like when there's a turnover in both Congress, Senate, and in the presidency, because Joe Biden's not going to do anything to stop it. | ||
And the Senate's not going to help any sort of movement from the House to stop it. | ||
And it really does feel like a period of limbo as everyone waits and figures out. | ||
Now, that's not very... | ||
It's motivating to the American public, right? | ||
It's very doomsday. | ||
It's very depressing to think that this is a system that's there and you can't do anything. | ||
We've got six more months left and maybe even possibly more than that if it's not dismantled from within. | ||
But I do think that the effect of – the only silver lining for January 6th for me was really that a lot of American people Steve Bannon said that Trump's the moderate. | ||
this isn't right, that the way you're being treated is wrong. | ||
It makes them more conscious of the effect. | ||
I don't like that there are people who are incarcerated and suffering because of that. | ||
But all of these little things that happen, COVID, the lockdowns, January 6th, I think | ||
they reminded people that the system is really fragile and it only takes a minority force | ||
to really control and restrict your life. | ||
Steve Bannon said that Trump's the moderate. | ||
He's right. | ||
And what comes next is going to be way more. | ||
So that's why I'm talking about the next generation after Trump. | ||
Trump is the moderate. | ||
He hired Bolton, for heaven's sake. | ||
He's looking at this as a compromise, what he can get done, and he got betrayed by some of the people that he thought he could trust, he could not trust. | ||
I'm just wondering, you know, who Bannon is talking about. | ||
Who's the next person in line? | ||
Because I have to imagine, based on the people that I know, you know, I'm just imagining. | ||
What would Jack Posobiec do if he was president? | ||
It ain't gonna look like Trump. | ||
It's gonna look like tenfold Trump. | ||
Yeah, it would be much more conservative. | ||
Oh, Jack would go in, straighten his tie, and then just say, execute schedule F. And then just start firing everybody. | ||
He would get the job done. | ||
I'm looking at people like him. | ||
I'm thinking about what I would do. | ||
And it's nowhere near what Trump is doing. | ||
Trump is taking the light road. | ||
But Trump has always been the dealmaker, right? | ||
He has been, but I think he understands who betrayed him the last time and he understands which systems. | ||
And I think he understands that these departments have to be dismantled, that he cannot continue down this same path with the same people and get any better results. | ||
So that that's where I'm thinking he's because I know the people in Congress that have his ear and they think like you do and they think like I do, Tim, and I believe that they They have his ear this time, and there's not people he's not going to get to know. | ||
He already knows these people, and he's been working with them in the past. | ||
And so, well, I hope he does. | ||
Do you think that means that he'll take more strategic positions on things like immigration? | ||
Like, we're hearing a lot about the border wall, but actually you have to do stuff like reform chain migration. | ||
You have to end birthright citizenship. | ||
I don't know of your opinion on birthright citizenship. | ||
Well, he's got all that stuff in there. | ||
I mean, did you see that? | ||
You saw the policy platform. | ||
He doesn't mention birthright citizenship on the policy platform. | ||
I mean, there's other stuff. | ||
But there is more to securing the border than he has. | ||
You know, if somebody makes $6,000 a year in these countries, they'll stay down there. | ||
A lot of them will. | ||
I had a meeting with some folks out of Guatemala today. | ||
I've been working with them and businesses to bring American business ideas down there. | ||
Our State Department was big on Bringing drag shows and other things to other countries. | ||
Capitalism is the key to that deal. | ||
And if we can, and we can use our capitalism, our business know-how, get those businesses they're operating and they can sell their products or we can take their products and refine them as we've been working on and then sell them to the world. | ||
I think that will keep the people in those countries. | ||
And we'll get back to the old system. | ||
You know, the system before under Reagan was, you know, you come up, you get your papers, | ||
your card, you go do your thing, you work seasonal, migratory workers is what they called | ||
them, and then they would go back home to Mexico, Guatemala, whatever, Honduras, and | ||
then that process would repeat itself. | ||
And it was an economic need. | ||
We needed people picking in the fields and things like that. | ||
And we broke the system when we allowed them to stay and get benefits. | ||
I think also incentivizing them to stay. | ||
I mean, that's the problem with birthright citizenship to me. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
Let's jump to this story from the Post Millennial. | ||
Huffington Post says campaign should use AI deepfakes to cover up for increasingly frail and confused Joe Biden. | ||
The opinion title, it's time for the Biden campaign to embrace AI. | ||
The Left Wing Huffington Post published an opinion piece on Wednesday recommending that Joe Biden's campaign embrace AI to smooth out his gaffes. | ||
Institute for Education Senior Advisor Kaivin Shroff wrote in the op-ed titled It's Time for the Biden Campaign to Embrace AI that Joe Biden is old and has had a lifelong stutter. | ||
He acknowledged in a fiery rally following his debate performance, | ||
I might not walk as easily or talk as smoothly as I used to. | ||
These AI-enhanced videos could ensure the public does not make decisions about the future of our | ||
democracy based on an inconveniently timed cough, stray stutter, or healthy but hobbled walk. | ||
Welcome to your nightmare, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
We think you should doctor your video so you seem better. | ||
Trick the American people. | ||
unidentified
|
Fiery. | |
They called that fiery. | ||
That's fiery. | ||
I don't know. | ||
That's pretty chilling if you ask me. | ||
It was pretty pitiful. | ||
Yeah. | ||
If he'd just not come off that debate and that's the first time you'd ever seen him, you'd think, wow, this guy's down the tubes. | ||
And the funny thing is, they're accusing us of doing what they said was being done to Biden. | ||
Well, you've got a lot of people in this country that don't care and don't pay attention. | ||
So when MSNBC says this version of Biden is the best version of Biden, he is sharp, they kept saying it, they believed it. | ||
And then, when Joe Biden publicly debates and displays exactly what all of us who pay attention know, Jon Stewart says new and shocking information that the voters should be allowed to consider. | ||
These people are evil. | ||
But what it really means is that if these people are, you know, saying that AI Biden should be the Biden that's out there, that's visible, what it really means is that they don't have any respect for the office of the presidency, and that they also don't think that there should be necessarily a presidency. | ||
They think more important than the man himself is the team around. | ||
They want you to be ruled by the man behind the curtain. | ||
Yeah, whoever that is, who is not the man we are seeing. | ||
They are effectively saying, let the puppet be where the spotlight is and the deep state will run the show. | ||
My favorite social media comment was, I don't care if Joe Biden's in a coma, I'm going to vote for him. | ||
That was on a clip of one of the debates. | ||
I mean, if you really felt that way, then you obviously don't believe that the presidency is the person themselves. | ||
It's the structure around them. | ||
And that's why I think they get so nervous about it. | ||
25 year old kid with a man bun who's got his ear in the White House right now. | ||
But real quick, someone out there, I'm sure you can find this, can someone find a clip, here's what we need to see, a clip from Whoopi Goldberg, from the Trump administration, years, where she says something like, he's embarrassing us on the world stage, blah blah blah, and then put that next to her saying, I don't care if he pooped his pants, I have poopy days too. | ||
Yeah, that was crazy and so disgusting. | ||
Well, and what was the criticism of Trump all the time? | ||
He's not presidential enough. | ||
He doesn't speak with decorum. | ||
He's doing whatever like and now you're excusing just complete decay of a human being. | ||
And that's a little bit harsh for Biden. | ||
But, you know, I don't think this is who the American people want to be represented by and I think that's why it's so hard for the Democrats to admit that they have sold you a false bill of goods when they could have been honest with their voters. | ||
I really think when Joe Biden sort of pretended he was going to be a first term president that there weren't enough people to hold him accountable to that. | ||
He was sort of saying I'll be the last of this guard and then we'll usher in a new age and instead he was like and now that I'm here I'm going to stay in the White House for as long as possible and you're going to have to force me out and that This is something that could have seen coming and they just don't have anyone on their bench to pull up. | ||
So they're caught between these very difficult positions. | ||
You have to have a congressman that would do it or a senator. | ||
And if you'll notice, they vote lockstep with Biden. | ||
The terrible policies, the terrible shape, the $600 more a month that average Americans having to pay out-of-pocket just to live, the gas prices, the fentanyl problem, the border. | ||
They voted 100% lockstep, and every dadgum one of them did, and now that's why none of them are stepping forward to kind of hint and, hey, pull me in there. | ||
Oh, and they defend him, right? | ||
I mean, every single one of them. | ||
Because they have to. | ||
They voted for his stupid policies. | ||
They vote lockstep, and Republicans don't do that. | ||
Even Dean Phillips, when he launched his challenge campaign as a Democrat, eventually was like, well, I'm going to drop out, but I'm going to endorse Biden. | ||
Even though I told you he was too old, even though I told you we needed new leadership, and even though I told you he wasn't unifying the country, even though I told you he was divisive, I've changed my mind. | ||
I'm going to back Joe Biden. | ||
I've known him for a long time. | ||
He's a good man. | ||
I mean, this is not a good look for them at all. | ||
But I also think that this just tells you that they don't really know where to go. | ||
They are scrambling. | ||
I don't think that there is an overarching plan for them. | ||
Maybe there was, and someone, probably Biden, was like, I don't like your plan anymore. | ||
The Democrats use the carrot and the stick a lot more effective than we do. | ||
I mean, Dean Phillips, he's a good friend of mine, but he is, you know... | ||
That's what they're under. | ||
And they know when they come back, they're going to be taken to the woodshed. | ||
Right. | ||
I mean, I thought he was it was a huge risk for him to go out there. | ||
And I think he took it. | ||
He took it. | ||
I mean, it cost him his political career. | ||
He's not, you know, he's not in it anymore. | ||
I wish he was out there saying right now, see, I told you guys, I mean, the problem is he's endorsed Biden, so he can't really go back on his word. | ||
It's a difficult position to be in. | ||
But I think it does does mean that there's sort of nowhere to go. | ||
Do you think that the American people Do you believe Joe Biden will leave the race or do you think that they expect it to be a Trump-Biden face-off again in November? | ||
I think it's a mixed bag. | ||
I think there's, you know, every day you say, I keep thinking that it's going to go to the convention and those superdelegates that you talked about, Tim, you know, when Hillary and Bernie came, were fighting each other. | ||
I believe Hillary did not have the popular vote, but she had the superdelegates, that corrupt system that they helped create that's been in place for a while. | ||
And so, you know, they've clearly stacked the deck in their favor. | ||
And I think the American public sees a lot of that now. | ||
And I think they're just openly disgusted with the whole thing. | ||
Sometimes I think that the mainstream media wants it to go to convention because of the ratings. | ||
Oh, it'll be great. | ||
It'll be great entertainment. | ||
If I go to the Republican convention, I'm going to go for a day or something. | ||
We kind of know what's going to happen. | ||
Well, it's an election year. | ||
There's four people down there that can vote for me, and I think I've got three of them. | ||
So, you know, I'm going to stay home and knock on doors. | ||
You know, in some of my counties. | ||
So, you know, I think that's more effective use of my time. | ||
And there used to be the fights, the floor fights, and there's not going to be one of the Republican Party. | ||
It's going to be a Kumbaya thing. | ||
And the only thing you really want to watch is the riots outside. | ||
Yeah. | ||
The radicals will be there. | ||
Oh, that's the interesting part. | ||
Yes, ma'am. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Although it does seem that this year the most of the radicals are going to be at the DNC and they're just going to be from the further left. | ||
It'll be Chicago. | ||
It'll be like Chicago in a... | ||
It's a really bad look that they're going to be in Chicago and that they're going to have this level of protesters with all of the Gaza-Israel stuff. | ||
They're going to be freaking out over that. | ||
You even had AOC when she was talking to reporters. | ||
What was it? | ||
Yesterday? | ||
Yesterday. | ||
She was talking to reporters about how she backs Biden no matter what. | ||
And she was saying, we're going to get this ceasefire. | ||
And it's like she represents that faction. | ||
Yeah, Cortez even said, I talked to the president this weekend, you know, we're going to work on all this stuff. | ||
And I just don't, I just don't see that unified front again, though, if we don't put enough points on the board, they're going to steal it from us. | ||
When the governors came out of that meeting with Biden, they all were using the exact same language. | ||
He's had our back, we have his. | ||
He's in it to win it. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, right. | |
The same slogan over and over again. | ||
They just got their talking points. | ||
But I just wonder, like, how many promises were made? | ||
What did he promise? | ||
Where was the governor of California and all that? | ||
Oh, he's not weighing in on this conversation. | ||
I think he's he's I think that's where they're going to go. | ||
Are there races in your area that you're interested in that you think people should pay more attention to? | ||
Of course, the local or state races are always important. | ||
Tennessee is you know, we've got the majority Republican, of course. | ||
But I again, I think we need to worry about the local races, the school boards, the county commissions, those type of things. | ||
What about the judges? | ||
Like the recent judge who, was she a chancery judge who refused to release the- In Nashville? | ||
Yeah, well that's Nashville, that's out of my- Yeah, that's out of your area, but it's certainly a local race. | ||
That's a disgrace. | ||
That's a good lesson, right? | ||
That's a disgrace. | ||
Elections do have consequences, but your big towns like Nashville and Memphis, they've gone pretty much Democrat, and they're mostly liberal. | ||
Well, Knoxville? | ||
Knoxville's had some serious— Well, Knoxville has a Democrat. | ||
We have an openly Marxist member of city council, and it's because people don't get out and vote. | ||
And these churches and civic organizations, they're afraid to get involved. | ||
We don't want to dirty our hands until it's all over. | ||
I met a city councilman from Charlestown, West Virginia, and it's an overwhelmingly conservative city and county. | ||
Well, I should say the county, I believe, is like 55% Trump-supporting. | ||
It is a bit mixed, because you get a lot of people from D.C. | ||
who come out to get away from the laws that they've voted for. | ||
But I asked them, you know, you guys have a Latin Mass right there in your city, and they did this big procession. | ||
How is it that your city council voted to enshrine Pride Month in a jurisdiction that's majority Trump-supporting, Republican, conservative? | ||
And he said, because they won't vote. | ||
Twelve percent, maybe, if we're lucky enough. | ||
Twelve percent of the population votes. | ||
We saw Brandon Herrera in Texas lost by a couple hundred votes, and it was something like ten percent of people turned out. | ||
In a district of 775,000 people, they got, what, like 30,000 or something like that? | ||
Or 67,000? | ||
I don't know what the number was. | ||
Something like that. | ||
Very, very low. | ||
And so I'm like... I found out that Charlestown voted the City Council to enshrine Pride Month, and I'm like... | ||
In Charlestown? | ||
I'm like, you just had like 3,000 people do a Latin mass procession through the city, and they're like, they won't vote. | ||
Okay? | ||
They don't vote? | ||
Here's the deal. | ||
They do not vote. | ||
Bottom line. | ||
People will not vote, and they're lazy, and that's part of the reason we're losing our country. | ||
All that is required for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing. | ||
Good people do nothing. | ||
Because we're progressive here, right? | ||
But I think that's part of the cultural aspect of this, which is that when people felt like civic engagement voting was worth it, was not just like worth it because it's not a corrupt system, but also worth it because it's sort of a moral duty. | ||
It's something you do for your neighbors, your country, your family. | ||
unidentified
|
I agree. | |
They treated it differently because it's always sort of been there and it happens in the background | ||
and I'm so busy and social media or whatever, you're always distracted by something. | ||
I think that that sense of I need to participate has gone away. | ||
That civic responsibility isn't there. | ||
I agree. | ||
And they don't teach it in schools and honestly as an elected official, it's a whole lot easier | ||
when a lot of people don't vote because when you target voters, which you do, you don't | ||
see somebody, you don't see a lot of dead people get letters. | ||
You don't see a lot of folks in the other party get your letters. | ||
You target that. | ||
And that's, that's the way it is. | ||
And they, you know, as long as the, as long as the power brokers are in power, they don't care. | ||
Yeah, I think that's true. | ||
Do you think that the next four years will shift the direction the country is moving, or do you think it'll always sort of be a vying back and forth? | ||
I think it'll be vying back and forth, but the extremes of the pendulum movement will be that much more extreme. | ||
I think where we've lost the real battle, we've lost it in our churches. | ||
Because they're afraid, honestly, as Christians, we're afraid to preach the gospel anymore, and we've lost it in public education. | ||
We've turned our colleges and universities over to Marxism, my friend. | ||
And she is my friend, I don't agree with her, but AOC. | ||
Publicly educated, and she has a degree, I believe it's in economics, and she's what I would call a Marxist. | ||
And she's a friendly Marxist, but she's a Marxist and publicly educated, and that's where it's going. | ||
These colleges, universities, you go into public schools. | ||
You know, and here's how it happens. | ||
The legislators, they elect these people and then they appoint these presidents of these colleges and universities. | ||
Go check, in Tennessee anyway, it's public record. | ||
Check their voter registration. | ||
If they do vote, I guarantee, you know, if your college or university says we celebrate diversity, ask them how many Republicans are in their sociology department, you know, because it's not there. | ||
And then we're getting that and these kids are indoctrinated. | ||
And these, the hippies and protesters that wanted to burn our country down in the 60s and 70s are now college deans. | ||
And some of them are retiring, but the product of that. | ||
And they haven't done it overnight. | ||
They've had a, again. | ||
They've done it over a period of time and we've been asleep at the switch. | ||
They will take this country without firing a shot. | ||
I looked at that picture of, I can't even, the press secretary, the president's press secretary, all those kids, you know, there's not a, you know, there's a bunch of man buns in there and a bunch of, you know, they, them. | ||
Oh, in that shot of the communications team to the White House, yeah. | ||
And I said, this is public education right here. | ||
And then I get these calls from people, you're saying bad stuff about public education. | ||
Yeah, I am. | ||
Because we turned it over to them. | ||
It's not just public, though. | ||
I mean, it's private schools. | ||
It's really all of the schools are like that. | ||
Yeah, but the government has no say in the private schools, other than just the credentials or whatever, you know, the standards. | ||
Do you think that the universities should stop receiving federal funds, the ones that are turning out basically, you know, basket-weaving Marxists? | ||
100%. | ||
100%. | ||
I think they ought to have a career base. | ||
They ought to have a career. | ||
You know, a kid's got eight years of school that fixes your coffee. | ||
I don't go to Starbucks. | ||
I don't give them money. | ||
I don't go to movies, I don't give my money to Hollywood either, but I'm an old fogey. | ||
I mean, there are institutions like Hillsdale that doesn't take federal funding. | ||
That's right, and God bless them. | ||
They can exist out there, it's just that there's sort of this dependency on federal funding. | ||
Once you take that needle, you're an addict. | ||
What do you think of, I think it was Oklahoma that recently implemented a curriculum rule that, you know, Christianity needed to be taught in schools. | ||
Not indoctrinated, but the Bible needed to be part of the education. | ||
I don't have a problem with that if that's what the local standards are. | ||
There's a reason Ronald Reagan introduced prayer in schools in Salt Lake City. | ||
Because the Mormons, they vote conservative and they pray. | ||
All right, we're gonna go to Super Chats. | ||
So if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button. | ||
One like equals one. | ||
Let's go, Brandon! | ||
And head over to TimCast.com, click join us, because we're gonna have that members-only call-in show, where you as members get to watch and or call in to talk to us and our guests. | ||
Join the show. | ||
Also, as members, you're basically keeping us alive, and we could use your support. | ||
And we like doing what we do, and it's all thanks to you. | ||
But for now, we'll read your Super Chats. | ||
We got Charles II of Spain. | ||
Who says, Tim, Barry Lyndon is a far superior movie to The Patriot. | ||
Not familiar. | ||
Is anybody familiar with that movie? | ||
No. | ||
Never heard of it. | ||
What's it called? | ||
Barry Lyndon? | ||
I guess we're all going to have to watch something this weekend. | ||
You've seen The Patriot with Mel Gibson, right? | ||
Absolutely. | ||
Oh, it's amazing. | ||
Baptist Church got a bus. | ||
Of course I've seen that. | ||
Oh, it looks like a 1776 movie. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
Is it? | ||
I want to get up and fight after that's over with. | ||
It's like Rocky, the first time I saw Rocky. | ||
You want to be a boxer. | ||
Yeah, I want to be a patriot. | ||
Yeah, I just feel like you want to put an American flag on your porch immediately. | ||
I want to go after some redcoats with a hatchet. | ||
All right, Marty Smith Fansu says, woohoo! | ||
Rep Burchett, excellent man. | ||
Right up there with Gates and MTG, Eli Crane. | ||
I donate to him even though I'm in California. | ||
Thanks for all you do, sir. | ||
God bless you. | ||
Those are great people. | ||
My buddy Eli Crane, I would encourage people and Matt Gates, they're spending, I think McCarthy's spending something like $900,000. | ||
Um, a month on him or a week. | ||
I forget what it is. | ||
It's a substantial amount right now against Gates, Eli crane. | ||
They've got a guy in there against him. | ||
Eli crane is a certified war hero. | ||
He is a very quiet, gentle soul that, uh, you know, I tell people these, these guys are people like my dad who was in the second war. | ||
They're exceptional people that are called on to do very bad things. | ||
And he did. | ||
He answered his country's call and did those. | ||
Eli Crane is a hero. | ||
It's a disgrace that our former speaker is mounting an attack against that guy. | ||
If it goes down again on January 6th, I was the very last House member to leave the House floor on January 6th, before Eli and all those guys. | ||
But I swear, if Eli had been there, I'd probably still be in there with him. | ||
Do you think McCarthy will succeed in getting Gates? | ||
No. | ||
No. | ||
I've been to that district. | ||
I go down there every year. | ||
It turns out the condo complex I stay in, Matt used to represent them and I didn't know it. | ||
And the lady is a big, uh, my wife and daughter and I go down there and they have a Republican club. | ||
And now every year when I go down, I speak to them. | ||
And it works out for me. | ||
I hate putting on my tie during, you know, vacation. | ||
But my wife and daughter love the lady who runs the condo down there. | ||
I think we're lucky here in our district. | ||
We got Riley Moore coming in. | ||
Yeah, that's exciting. | ||
Very exciting. | ||
And he's a good dude. | ||
Yeah, he's a good dude. | ||
So I'm excited to see what he can get done in Congress. | ||
You guys can be a skateboard coalition because you skateboard too, as we learned. | ||
I do. | ||
I've got a skateboard. | ||
Can you kickflip? | ||
No. | ||
I can... No. | ||
No. | ||
I'm too old anymore. | ||
I'm 59, dude. | ||
Riley did a kickflip to fakie on the bank. | ||
Wow. | ||
And he's gonna be probably the only member of Congress who can land a kickflip. | ||
I'm very excited for that. | ||
I'd say so. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I'm happy to have some representation, finally. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
I'll get you one of my bamboo skateboards when I get the mixture down right. | ||
Right on. | ||
You'll dig it. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Let's read some more. | ||
The Emperor's Champion says there's only two ways Democrats can get rid of Biden. | ||
The 25th Amendment and... Oh, I can't read that next one. | ||
He says Hillary Clinton. | ||
Oh, ouch. | ||
But just infer what that means. | ||
She's going to run and then she wins. | ||
And that's all that means. | ||
There's nothing else that means. | ||
We'll read more Super Chats now. | ||
Anyway, moving on. | ||
Kyle H says, Hey Tim, I'm a photographer and my dad passed away, and I'm trying to put together a project in his honor to unite people. | ||
Is there somewhere I can send the link? | ||
I don't know. | ||
There's no real good way to do it. | ||
Normally, we just tell people to message Ian. | ||
You could still do that. | ||
Yeah, Ian on Twitter, on X, sorry, dead named X. You hit up Ian, Ian's always a good contact. | ||
I don't know where he is right now. | ||
But we never really know where he is. | ||
We never do know where he is. | ||
Alright. | ||
Kelton Heckman says, Rhett Burchett, you are the best representative I have ever had. | ||
Thank you for actually protecting our Tennessee values. | ||
Love for Powell, Tennessee. | ||
Powell. | ||
Well, when you're from Powell, you say Powell. | ||
P-A-L. | ||
I was knocking on doors in Powell last Saturday, and they're wonderful people. | ||
Oh, right on. | ||
I mentioned this before the show, too. | ||
I said, we're going to get a lot of messages. | ||
They're going to be like, you're the best. | ||
We're from your district. | ||
We love you. | ||
That's cool. | ||
And sure enough, Bam says MAGA for Biden. | ||
Questioning him is questioning our democracy. | ||
He is the people's chosen candidate. | ||
He does not need to speak. | ||
His track record speaks for him better than he ever could. | ||
I think that's true. 100%. | ||
Phil Luciano says, longtime Spotify listener, coffee buyer, participant in Fit by November Club, and future Cast Brew franchisee owner here. | ||
A good friend that moved to Martinsburg, West Virginia to get away from DC recently passed away. | ||
There's another one here. | ||
Let me see if I can see the one. | ||
Where's, where's, where's your second super chat? | ||
I don't, I don't see it. | ||
Can't finish it. | ||
Maybe we'll try and find it. | ||
All right, Ronan Jack says, here is my tithing to the Temple of Tim Pool. | ||
Ah, yes, thank you. | ||
Tithing is deeply important. | ||
Perhaps you could become a member at TimCast.com. | ||
That's 10%, you know, tithing's 10%. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Doesn't tithe reference... The more tithing is 10%, the government gets a lot more. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Tyler George says, I was unsubscribed from your channel. | ||
Yep. | ||
I have so many people who message me and they'll be like, I have searched it three different times and nothing comes up. | ||
Or they'll be like, I was subscribed for years and suddenly it's not there. | ||
We've had a lot of messages from people, frequently, where they say, I watch every episode, I never miss an episode, and I was unsubscribed, and the video wasn't appearing for me. | ||
There was one episode, and I wish I could remember the guest, but I wasn't on the show, and I searched it on YouTube like three different times, I tried all the combinations of words, and ultimately had to go out to whoever had tweeted out the link, because that was the only way I could find it. | ||
It was very, very weird. | ||
It was like a year ago. | ||
Yep, that's YouTube. | ||
They'd love it if we would just go away, but it doesn't work. | ||
Sorry. | ||
That's why it's important y'all become members, though. | ||
My morning show is Shadowbanned on Google. | ||
Really? | ||
Yeah, so if you go to google.com and then search for youtube.com slash timcastnews, it will not come up. | ||
If you take the title of any of those videos I've made, because I do four per day, and you Google search for it, the video will not come up. | ||
Google has—for whatever reason, TimCast IRL I don't think has that problem anymore. | ||
We'll check. | ||
But my morning show, which is TimCast News, is Shadowbanned on Google. | ||
Yeah, the Tim—the Culture War podcast is not. | ||
I haven't figured out if that's you yet. | ||
It's got a different name. | ||
Well, they were all. | ||
They shadowbanned all of my channels and then unshadowbanned those too, but Tim Cass News is still in the shadowban. | ||
Yeah, I used to get, and I think, I think the reason is, my videos would get 300,000 views on each video. | ||
Now they do like 150 to 200, depending on the day. | ||
Sometimes it could be a little bit less. | ||
Sometimes it could be a little bit more. | ||
I got a video from last week that's like half a million. | ||
One's got 300. | ||
But I used to consistently hit around 300k. | ||
And then they shadowbanned me, and they need to remove, you know, I don't know, rabble-rousers, I guess. | ||
They don't like me. | ||
You know, when Trump won the last time, they cried. | ||
And it's on video and you can watch the video of them crying, the Google executives or their staffers. | ||
So when you get a channel like mine, that's not necessarily just saying, yay, yay, maga, maga, but I'm saying, hey, the media lied there. | ||
Trump's actually not that bad. | ||
He didn't do that. | ||
They're like, oh, a reasonable argument that could actually convince people as to why Joe Biden's bad. | ||
Don't let him get his videos out. | ||
That's the game they play. | ||
Alright, Sean Waters says, Hey Tim, I originally joined the Culture War with my song Effigy, inspired by Michael Knowles being burned in Effigy last year. | ||
If you like it, I'm trying to raise funds for my next project on Give Send Go under Sean Waters. | ||
That's Give Send Go, Sean Waters. | ||
Best of luck, good sir. | ||
Make music! | ||
We got a bunch of really cool stuff going on with the Boonies HQ and talking to the city of Martinsburg about their skate park project and we're going to be assisting in fundraising to the best of our abilities to get a big park. | ||
I told them, they said they had an idea for like a small concrete park and I told the guy, I said, you know, I don't want to step on anybody's toes here. | ||
But if I reached out to some of my guys in the industry and we put together a substantial sum of money to make a world-class action sports facility, is that something you guys could accommodate? | ||
And would you want that? | ||
And he was like, yeah, that'd be fantastic. | ||
And I'm like, you know, if you build a local skate park in Martinsburg, the community will enjoy the skate park. | ||
That's a good thing. | ||
If you double your investment into the skate park, you will build a world-class facility, and you'll have people travel from all over the world to try and see this amazing park where they can skate, or scoot, or bike, or blade, or whatever it is they do. | ||
And he seemed pretty excited about it, so... | ||
Hopefully they figure that out. | ||
And then I'm going to reach out to as many industry contacts as I can. | ||
And I'm hoping we can raise, we can match whatever it is they put towards it through various companies. | ||
So we're probably looking at like a million dollar fundraise. | ||
But then we could have a big world class facility in Martinsburg and put it on the map for skateboarding. | ||
It'd be fantastic. | ||
That would be cool. | ||
Yeah, it'd be super cool. | ||
Very cool. | ||
Yeah, I'm very interested. | ||
We'll see what happens. | ||
We'll see. | ||
They're still trying to secure land. | ||
There's concern the locals are concerned that the current place they're going to put it would result in flooding. | ||
So they got to find somewhere else. | ||
But we love Martinsburg. | ||
All right, we'll grab some more Super Chats. | ||
Ben Lowry says if illegals are going to swing this election in the swing states, why do they want to dump Biden if they control him? | ||
Why rock the boat? | ||
Because he's too old and he won't last in office. | ||
He's not going to make it. | ||
So having to swap him out at the last minute is a headache. | ||
And you don't know who's coming next. | ||
Part of it is staying ahead and saying, well, we know who's going to be there and we know that they'll do the things we want them to do. | ||
I actually think that's the biggest problem they have with Biden. | ||
Health is definitely Uh, up there, but, you know, I think, really, he didn't want to be a one-term president like they had hoped he would. | ||
and that's been a bigger obstacle to overcome. | ||
Alright, Noah Bodie says, Rumor is Trump may announce VP at his rally right now. | ||
Did that happen? | ||
No. | ||
No. | ||
There was a rumor going around, but then everyone kind of realized that if Trump was actually going to announce his VP on a random Tuesday night around 9 o'clock, there would have been a little more warning and fanfare. | ||
Yeah, he understands that. | ||
I think he'll do it at the convention. | ||
He did challenge Biden to a round of 18 holes in golf, so that's kind of funny. | ||
You know what really grinds my gears? | ||
During Occupy Wall Street, the organizers pulled off this stunt where they spread a rumor that Radiohead was gonna play at the park. | ||
And thousands of people showed up. | ||
And it worked. | ||
It worked. | ||
Thousands of people showed up. | ||
And then the organizers used them and put them in the process of, you know, people's mic and all this stuff. | ||
And I remember talking to someone and she's like, you know, this young woman, I said, hey, you know, have you been here before? | ||
And she's like, no. | ||
And then I'm like, you going to stick around? | ||
And she's like, well, I heard Radiohead was going to play. | ||
And I'm like, they're not playing. | ||
That's silly. | ||
And she's like, oh, really? | ||
And I was like, are you going to leave now? | ||
And she goes, no. | ||
Like, because now they're embarrassed. | ||
Like, I'm here because I believe in it. | ||
So at the Libertarian Convention, someone was spreading a rumor that Trump was going to sing with Afro Man. | ||
I don't think Trump needs to do that, you know? | ||
I don't think that's it. | ||
He has a lot of jokes. | ||
going, no, there's no rumor because the Secret Service would have shut down the venue a week | ||
in advance or two days in advance. | ||
It's not happening. | ||
I'm like, I'm just saying there's a remark. | ||
No, stop. | ||
Just stop. | ||
You're not. | ||
You're not pulling this one off. | ||
OK, no one's falling. | ||
I don't think Trump needs to do that. | ||
You know, I don't think that's that's it. | ||
He has a lot of jokes. | ||
He's definitely a performer, but I don't see him becoming musical anytime soon. | ||
Like if you come to me and I know you're lying to try and pull some garbage like that. | ||
You are excised from my address book. | ||
You are not coming in this space. | ||
I am not dealing with that. | ||
To come to me and be like, hey, Trump's gonna sing! | ||
And I'm like, you're out. | ||
Never again. | ||
I don't want to deal with people like you. | ||
This is why I absolutely despise Jon Stewart right now. | ||
I give him respect for his work over 9-11, the first responders. | ||
He did a lot for those guys. | ||
I respect that. | ||
But to lie on his show as It's absolutely insane. | ||
New information, and we should shut down the primary. | ||
Wow. | ||
These people are despicable evil. | ||
In their minds, the will of the people be damned because they're smarter than you, so they should be the ones in charge. | ||
Instead of trying to build a robust culture and community of smart people who can actually navigate crises and build new technologies and improve things, they go the route of poison their minds, poison their bodies, and get the dumb people to do what you want because you're better than they are, and that's disgusting. | ||
I'm gonna start a rumor this Friday that you're performing with Radiohead here. | ||
We'll see how many people show up for poker. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Alright. | ||
What do we have? | ||
What do we have? | ||
We'll grab some more Super Chats. | ||
Richard Divine says, can someone please go into details on what the F is the 2025 project? | ||
2025 project. | ||
So. | ||
I for it. | ||
I have not read it. | ||
I do not intend to read it. | ||
It's not Trump's deal. | ||
You have people that are putting this out, and you have some AI people talking about it, and I just don't. | ||
It's not a reality. | ||
It's some independent group of people that have put something out. | ||
of solutions that would, ways to get to where, you know, to solve things. | ||
And that's it. | ||
And if they're radical, maybe they are. | ||
If they're wrong, some of them probably are. | ||
But I think it's not a thing. | ||
I think it's just the thing they're trying to distract with, right? | ||
I agree. | ||
It is a complete, it's like what you said about the liars. 100%. | ||
But I mean, I read like maybe 100 or 200 pages into it. | ||
And most of it is really just about how to run the government by, you know, bringing power back to where it should have power, taking it away from the federal agencies. | ||
And it was put together by the Heritage Foundation. | ||
And there's a lot of really interesting good thinkers who have written in it, you know, | ||
especially I was looking at the education section and some other stuff. | ||
But it's not Trump's platform. | ||
It's really just exactly, you know, it's a not for profit putting together some ideas | ||
that they hope that the candidate would read and check out. | ||
They're treating it like it's a contract that Trump has signed. | ||
He's you know, promised barrier. | ||
He doesn't follow through. | ||
Like it's getting so hysterical. | ||
But if you look at it, like I remember in 2020 when the teachers union, the NEA donated, | ||
you know, $30,000 or something like that to the Biden campaign and put together their | ||
playbook for. | ||
COVID. | ||
And they put together their playbook of how they wanted COVID and schools and teachers and students to operate. | ||
They gave it to the campaign. | ||
And we reported on it at the time, like, this is what the NEA gave the campaign. | ||
But then what happened in the winter, once Biden was in office, they implemented almost all of those things. | ||
So that's when you want, I mean, sure, report on what Project 2025 says, but like, you know, it's not, it's not a, it's not a diktat, you know? | ||
Yeah, it's not. | ||
I really do think it's this, you know, it came up a couple months ago. | ||
There was a whole bunch of articles, Project 2025. | ||
I mean, honestly, I think they're mad because it's got kind of a cool title. | ||
Sounds kind of interesting. | ||
What are not-for-profit think tanks supposed to do? | ||
Right. | ||
This is literally why they exist. | ||
But also then it comes back up after Biden does so poorly in the debate and they're trying desperately to spin against Republicans and they won't, you know, the hurricane's apparently not enough to redirect attention. | ||
Have you heard about Joe Biden's Project Baby Killer? | ||
I'm really concerned about that one. | ||
A nonprofit wrote about how they want to expand abortion, and that's all Biden. | ||
Biden is behind all of it, and he wants us to go around personally performing abortions. | ||
What was amazing, too, was how recently the Biden administration came out opposing sex changes for minors, medical sex changes for minors, surgical. | ||
Meanwhile, they're suing the state of Tennessee for their law that says you can't sex change kids. | ||
This is why I want to know what promises were made from the Biden administration. | ||
What's the truth? | ||
Are you opposed or are you suing Tennessee? | ||
They're in a weak position. | ||
And so they're about to promise everything and talk out of every side of their mouth. | ||
And it's just going to be fascinating to see the fallout. | ||
And we have Biden on video saying, parents, affirm your kids. | ||
Hi, Tim. | ||
Been watching since your guest host on Sargon's channel. | ||
I work at a gas station in Georgia. | ||
Prices just jumped up 40 cents. | ||
Trump landslide. | ||
Speaking of Sargon, Carl Benjamin is going to be here this week. | ||
We're very excited. | ||
Carl's a good friend. | ||
And this Friday on The Culture War, oh boy. | ||
We're going to be debating with the Lotus Eaters post-liberalism. | ||
So it's going to be very friendly and hilarious, but very argumentative. | ||
So I'm very excited for this. | ||
Phil debating classical liberalism versus post-liberalism is going to be a blast. | ||
And Carl will also be here, so we're very excited for that. | ||
And that's Phil's last appearance for a little while, I think, because he's about to go off on tour. | ||
Yeah, the, um, what is it? | ||
Destroy All Enemies Tour? | ||
Is that what it's called? | ||
Destroy All Enemies Tour. | ||
Destroy All Enemies, wow. | ||
Opening for Mudbane and Megadeth. | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
I know nothing about- It's big. | ||
unidentified
|
Megadeth, wow. | |
It's huge! | ||
I only know about it because he sits across the table from me so often. | ||
I've learned so much from him. | ||
Yeah, well very excited for- I don't know if you like metal music, Representative. | ||
It's Tim. | ||
And I like both kinds of music, country and Western. | ||
Yeah. | ||

|
All right. | |
The only two, huh? | ||
All right. | ||
Eldritchinator says trying to change horses at this juncture is dishonest of the Democrats and tacit admission that they lied. | ||
Democrats voted and argued for this man, defended him, and placed American lives in his skeletal hands. | ||
This is what really bothers me. | ||
There's no conspiracy. | ||
This is a conspiracy fact. | ||
Democrats have known Joe Biden is ill going back to 2020 when they wrote about it. | ||
Now they're acting like it's a cover-up because they are lying. | ||
So when you see all the different journalists go, we have no idea. | ||
We know for a fact they're lying. | ||
This is an obvious coordinated effort by the media and Democrats to manipulate the American people in plain view. | ||
Boy, are they getting desperate. | ||
You know what I think? | ||
I think we had a real strong deep state after World War II. | ||
I think the liberal economic order was formed, powerful interests in the United States and European countries came together, and they said, we're going to run this thing like a well-oiled machine. | ||
JFK ends up getting killed because he defies the machine, and they got things under wraps. | ||
The media is going to do what we say. | ||
They're going to report the stories we want. | ||
Mockingbird, paperclip, all of these things, you name it, we control this thing. | ||
And then they had kids. | ||
And those kids inherited many of these systems. | ||
And they saw what their parents did with the liberal economic order and they said, we're going to do this job too. | ||
And then they had kids. | ||
And those kids never saw what their grandparents did, have a general understanding of geopolitics, and are now trying to inherit the deep state and have no idea what they're doing. | ||
No historical knowledge. | ||
None. | ||
And so they say that wealth lasts three generations. | ||
You get a guy who comes from nothing, he works really, really hard, he builds a business, he becomes wealthy. | ||
He shows his son, his son watches him work, his son learns how to run the business, but not build a business on his own. | ||
That kid maintains the business and then has a son and that son never sees someone build a business, doesn't see how it's done, has no idea how to run it, inherits it, and it falls apart and wealth lasts three generations. | ||
But this is true for anything. | ||
So I genuinely believe that what we're seeing now with like the media's overt lies and all that, the deep state is on their third generation and they don't know how to make the machine work. | ||
It's like Kafka. | ||
It's really very Kafka-esque, or if you read Václav Havel, the playwright who became president of the Czech Republic at the time, he had this amazing play called The Memorandum, and it just shows, it's like these levels and levels of bureaucracy, and no one knows who's in charge, and no one knows what they're doing. | ||
They just know that what they have to do is protect themselves against anyone who might look at them askance, you know? | ||
I want to give a quick shout out to FitCast, IRL, because I said this a few months ago, like, everybody should get in shape before November. | ||
If you don't know what you can do, if you feel like there's nothing you can do, maybe voter registration stuff isn't up your alley, you don't know how to advocate, maybe you're too busy, you can get in shape. | ||
That's something literally anybody can do. | ||
And improving yourself, improving your life is, I mean, let's just put it simply. | ||
If you took every Democrat and every Republican And you got every Republican to be fit as a fiddle. | ||
You are going to have a general net positive effect across the board for everyone who agrees that you're going to live longer, you're going to have more kids, you're going to feel better, you're going to be sharper, smarter, stronger, and that will confirm massive benefits to your economic opportunities, to your access, to the way people treat you. | ||
And if that is the only thing everybody did, Over a long enough period of time, a fit, well-oiled group of people, figuratively well-oiled, I don't know if that's what you're into, is going to operate better, is going to be more successful, and that's what it's all about. | ||
So get those crunches, get those sit-ups, get those burpees in, and by November, if you're hoping that you can make a difference, but you don't know how to do it, you can always start with improving yourself. | ||

It's OA Lifts. | ||
Since working out is considered right-wing, I started a fitness channel, OA Lifts. | ||
I guess that's why they say, might makes right. | ||
Aha. | ||
Yep, the media has actually reported numerous times that working out makes you right-wing. | ||
Yeah, that's so wild. | ||
Maybe it's because you worked hard to accomplish something. | ||
You feel good that you did the work to accomplish the thing. | ||
And it makes you understand meritocracy. | ||
And you're like, you know, now I get it. | ||
Or maybe it's that people who have a tendency to try to improve themselves probably already have some kind of rightward lean to them. | ||

All right, let's grab some more superchats. | |
Mr. Grizzly Bear says, if Donald Trump wins this election, the leftist riots will make the summer of love look like an actual summer of love. | ||
That's a good one. | ||
And I agree. | ||
Logan Culver says, Nixon won Ohio and Florida but lost in 1960. | ||
Ah, okay. | ||
It's something like that. | ||
Right, I think I'm wrong on that one. | ||
That's why I said I wasn't sure. | ||
But yeah. | ||
Oh, wait. | ||
Oh, wait, no. | ||
Hold on a minute. | ||
He lost in 1960. | ||
That's when... Kennedy. | ||
Yeah, that's when those votes from Hawaii... Is it Hawaii? | ||
Well, Hawaii had non-certified votes that were sent to Congress through an alternate slate of electors that Nixon decided he would count those instead as vice president. | ||
Apparently that was illegal, you know? | ||
That's crazy. | ||
Kennedy, he was an illegitimate president, I guess. | ||
Because the argument is, he's had a false slate of electors from Hawaii. | ||
Yeah, we covered that a while back. | ||
Yeah, nobody really cares that that happened anymore. | ||
And that's where the mob loaded the voter toll. | ||
In Chicago. | ||
Also what they say. | ||
All right, let's grab some more Super Chats. | ||
Alex Thatches is hoping to get a call out for my books ad infinitum, Meat Market and Eggshell, all about the individual fighting to create a positive future. | ||
Shadowbanned and now my Amazon publish account is suspended. | ||
This escalated with a $1 sale on digital copy for Independence Day. | ||
Wow. | ||
That's what they do, man. | ||
They silence and suppress and shadowban because they don't want this narrative to get out. | ||
It's, you know, look, We consistently get one of the largest live audiences on YouTube, and it's in spite of what YouTube is doing. | ||
You look at some of these other channels, and you look at the views that we get, and it's kind of curious how you'll see a channel on YouTube that organically will generate 2-3 million subscribers, but they'll get maybe 10 or 20 thousand views in a video. | ||
We do a show, we get 300 to 500 on YouTube, or more, The channel gets shadowbanned, people can't find the videos, our subscriber growth slows down. | ||
The reality is most people are not subscribing, but they choose to watch the show because they know about it. | ||
If YouTube had their way, they would shadowban us and make it so that nobody watched ever again. | ||
But you know what they can't stop? | ||
They can't stop people from turning their TV on and just finding the show and wanting to watch it. | ||
They try. | ||
We get messages from people saying, I can't find the episode, how do I find it? | ||
That is a problem for us, but they can only do it so much because people still choose to seek the episode out. | ||
If we were reliant only on the algorithm, we probably would have ceased to exist a long time ago. | ||
So, shout out to everybody who loves watching the show. | ||
Thank you for allowing us to do the work we do. | ||
All right, I got one more from Raymond G. Maga Stanley Jr. | ||

One quick story. | ||
On the night Bill Clinton won, I remember looking across the table at my daddy. | ||
We worked the polls that day. | ||
I was on the House, in the State House. | ||
And I'd won, obviously. | ||
And I remember my dad said he was going to pray. | ||
It was just me and him in our little house there on Bennington Drive in West Knoxville. | ||
And he said, Lord, please don't let us lose our country. | ||
And I looked across the table at a Marine Corps World War II combat veteran whose heart was breaking because we were losing our country. | ||
So I asked folks, pray for our country. | ||
Let's not lose our country. | ||
Too many people have fought and died. | ||
For our country. | ||
I have an uncle who never came back from Europe. | ||
Too old to go. | ||
Went to fight. | ||
Ended up dying in the hedgerow shortly after D-Day. | ||
Tens of thousands of these people out there that fought and died for everything we got. | ||
Please don't let them die in vain. | ||
Let's take our country back. | ||
This is the first step. | ||
It's not the last step. | ||
It's the first step. | ||
Presidential, Congressional, U.S. | ||
Senate, State House, State Senate, County Commission, school boards. | ||
