We've got this progressive reporter who decided that because it was newsworthy, in his opinion,
He was going to publish the JDV.
Vance dossier that was hacked by Iran and sent to the Biden and Harris campaigns.
This information had been circulating among media outlets, but they chose not to release it because it was hacked by Iran.
And Iran intentionally did this, sent it to Democrats, hoping to sow discord in the United States.
Not just to hurt J.D.
Vance and give Democrats a weapon to win, but to create chaos.
Seemed like they really wanted people to know that they did this.
So a bunch of news outlets said, look, we got this, but we ain't gonna publish it.
But don't worry, Because the Iranian plan seemed to have worked out to them thanks to Ken Klippenstein.
Klippenstein?
The progressive journalist who decided that because it's newsworthy, he's going to publish it on his own subset.
He did.
Elon Musk, I don't want to say Elon Musk, that's the reporting though, suspended him for doing this because the document apparently contains J.D.
Vance's social security number, home address, and considering the attempts on the life of Donald Trump, seems like not a smart thing to do.
So we're going to talk about that, plus a lot of stuff.
Man, Eric Adams making these claims.
He's saying that the Biden administration is going after him with these trumped up charges because he's pushing back on migration.
And that may be the case.
It looks like they're going after him over $100,000 in campaign contributions, which my understanding, based on cases I've been involved in, don't move the needle.
So why are they going after Eric Adams?
Well, he claims to have pushed back, but let's be real.
He's also given illegal immigrants $4,000 to permanently settle in New York City, so whatever.
We'll talk about it.
And more importantly, ladies and gentlemen...
There's a Class 4 hurricane that is barreling down on Florida.
You guys got to be safe.
I hope all of you down there in the Gulf have taken every precaution.
This is why I always say, you know, you want to be prepared because sometimes it rains.

Great to be back, Tim.
Thanks for having me.
tim pool
Who are you?
What do you do?
oli london
So I'm an author.
I struggled for a number of years with the gender ideology.
I fell susceptible to that and then I wrote a book discussing how so many young kids are being susceptible to this on TikTok, in schools, how gender ideology and woke culture is being pushed on kids and in my book Gender Madness is basically trying to help parents look out for the warning signs And just help young people that are struggling.
But, you know, I also do a lot of news commentary as well, following a lot of politics, you know.
Of course, watching your show, getting all the latest news and stuff.
So, excited to be here.
tim pool
Right on.
We got Libby hanging out.
libby emmons
Hi, I'm Libby Emmons.
I'm hanging out.
I'm with the Postmillennial and Human Events.
Glad to be here with you, Ollie, and everybody else.
hannah claire brimelow
I'm glad you're both here.
I think it'll be an interesting conversation.
I'm Hannah-Claire Brimel.
I'm a writer for scnr.com at Scanner News.
You can check out all of our work on the internet.
Let's get started.
tim pool
Here's a big story from Newsweek.
Elon Musk suspends reporter who published J.D.
Vance dossier.
For those that aren't familiar, Iran hacked the Trump campaign.
They found this opposition, well it's not opposition research, but they did vetting research on J.D.
Vance to determine if he was going to be a good VP.
In it, there are some negative things or things they think may be weaknesses.
Iran hacks the Trump campaign.
Sends the info to the Democrats, to Biden and Harris, trying to get them to use it.
They said they're not going to go near it.
Apparently they're working with the Feds.
The Feds are like, yes, Iran's trying to interfere in the election.
It's a malign influence campaign, they call it.
So a bunch of journalists get access to this and they all decide, because sharing this will interfere in the election and assist Iran in their efforts, we won't publish it.
Well, you know, rest assured you'll get some woke journalist who hates JD Vance who decides he's going to publish it anyway.
And he did.
Ken Klippenstein has been suspended.
It may be permanent, Newsweek says.
The ex-account of journalist Ken Klippenstein was suspended on Thursday following the release of the dossier about J.D.
Vance that was allegedly from an Iranian government hack.
Here's the dossier the media refused to publish, he wrote in a post earlier.
He's a former reporter at The Intercept, published the dossier to his Substack website about three hours prior to his account suspension.
So we actually have his post here.
We're not going to pull up the dossier.
But the J.D.
Vance dossier includes his social security number, home address, phone number, and a bunch of private information that should have been redacted.
And there are a lot of leftists and liberals who are pointing this out, saying that Wikileaks publishes information all the time, and they painstakingly redact private information to protect the individual.
If there's something newsworthy, you don't need to publish the phone number.
This guy didn't do that, and that's basically why he got taken down.
Here's what he says.
Behold the dossier.
It reportedly comes from an alleged Iranian government hack of the Trump campaign, and since June, the news media has been sitting on it, declining to publish in fear of finding itself at odds with the government's campaign against foreign malign influence.
I disagree.
The dossier has been offered to me and I decided to publish it because it's of keen public interest in election season.
It's a 271-page research paper.
The Trump campaign prepared to vet now-vice presidential candidate J.D.
Vance.
As far as I can tell, it hasn't been altered.
Even if it was, its contents are publicly verifiable.
Let's speak for itself.
Quote, the terror regime in Iran loves the weakness and stupidity of Kamala Harris and is terrified of the strength and resolve of Donald Trump.
Stephen Chung, communications director for the Trump campaign, responded when I asked about the hack.
If the document had been hacked by some anonymous, like, hacker group, the news media would be all over it.
I'm just not a believer of the news media as an arm of the government doing its work combating foreign influence.
I'm gonna pause right there and say, you're a scumbag, Ken.
That's not true.
You published it because you wanted attention for your website.
When the Steele dossier came out, and you make the argument, well, the Steele dossier was BS.
Yes, and even though that came from Clinton, And it came from domestic sources.
News outlets still decided not to publish it until BuzzFeed and all their scumbaggery decided to publish nonsense garbage.
Every journalist basically was aligned, saying there's no reason to publish this, it wasn't obtained in any reasonable way, and it's private campaign materials.
But you know what?
I hope you get new subscribers.
How about that?
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah, it does seem like a very self-serving move.
Any kind of claim to being an honorable journalist who's doing this for the public good seems obviously a cover up for poor judgment and a lack of ethical standards.
You know, the thing is, JD Vance has very young children.
And so, you know, I think a lot of people could say generally, oh, he lives in this
part of Ohio or whatever else, but to put his social security number out there, to put
other things out, puts a lot of people other than him at risk.
And especially given the stakes that the Trump campaign has already been dealing with, given
the two physical attacks on Donald Trump, I don't know why anyone would say, I think
this is a great call, I'm going to do a round spitting and let this out there, especially
because as far as i can tell like the stuff that's in there that seems to paint jdv
Vance in maybe a somewhat negative light is basically already known.
I mean, there really wasn't, like, to me, from what I know about the reporting—I haven't read the dossier—a smoking gun.
I think it seems like this reporter was—heard the word dossier and thought, that's scandalous and I have it and I'll release it.
libby emmons
What do you think it was that he was trying to gain by doing this?
Anything other than just getting attention?
tim pool
Attention.
libby emmons
That's it?
tim pool
I mean, look.
Has anybody heard his name before?
libby emmons
No.
tim pool
Yeah, I know who he is because he's an Intercept reporter, and I'm on X all the time watching, so I see posts from this guy.
But, I mean, people want attention.
That's what they do.
He's the news equivalent of a nuisance streamer.
hannah claire brimelow
Interesting.
tim pool
Yeah, they go into shopping markets, they go to Walmart and they grab gallons of milk and they splash it all over themselves and they scream nonsense.
Those guys are awful.
They want to get the views.
That's basically what this guy is doing.
There's no news, nothing about this is newsworthy.
Let me show you some of what's in it, okay?
No, no, no, this is okay, it's okay.
Quote, Vance has been one of the chief obstructionists to U.S.
efforts to providing assistance to Ukraine.
Okay.
libby emmons
That's just his congressional record.
tim pool
Yeah, right.
It says Vance criticized public health experts and elected officials for supporting Black Lives Matter protests while condemning anti-lockdown protests.
Okay.
Vance embraced non-interventionism.
Okay.
In 2020, he criticized President Trump's airstrike killing Soleimani, worrying it would continue to bog down America and the Middle East.
Yep, he's anti-intervention.
Okay.
So why publish a document with this guy's private information in it?
Why not redact any of it?
It's not newsworthy that you've basically got a list of things that J.D.
Vance has said or done.
It's just not.
oli london
Well, it's clear this guy's obviously after a scoop and he's thinking he can go viral or get, you know, as you said, new subscribers.
But, you know, the FBI has been warning for months that Iran is interfering the election.
They've already said that Iran was behind plots to try and assassinate President Trump.
So the fact that he knows this, he's saying at the start of the article, you know, it's allegedly from an Iranian hack.
He knows that.
That's clearly, you know, wrong.
Yet he's deciding to publish it anyway, especially when, you know, there's been two assassination attempts on Trump.
And then he's putting private details of J.D.
Vance, putting him and his family at risk.
You know, it's ridiculous.
And also to know that Iran is the number one state sponsor of terrorism and to try and take something that they've hacked and publish it.
tim pool
Help him with it.
oli london
If he's got a scoop.
tim pool
There was a story a long time ago where there was this dude who worked at Condé Nast and he was gay, but nobody knew he was gay.
And then somebody got information on him and threatened to blackmail him.
And they said, you know, I can't remember exactly what it was, but I think it was give me money or I'm going to out you.
So, he refused to pay.
They went to, I think it might have been Gawker, I'm not sure, and said, here's information on this guy, he's gay.
And they went, yeah!
And they published it.
And everybody was like, so you just aided and abetted the blackmailer?
You could have told him to screw off.
And they're like, yeah, well, someone would have published it.
What he's doing here is, Iran has a campaign.
And I'm going to be as hard and dark with it as I can, and I hope he hears it.
Iran's campaign against the United States right now involves militias killing our men and women in uniform, funding them and giving them weapons so they can do that.
That's the most extreme thing happening right now overseas.
Next, the most extreme thing domestically is they're trying to kill Donald Trump.
As a part of their campaign against us, they're also trying to sow discord in this country.
Ken, I hope you appreciate being a part of their campaign, which includes all of those things.
libby emmons
Yeah, it does seem like he's just playing into their hands.
And especially right after Trump put out that statement the other day saying that there had been more attempts on his life that hadn't necessarily been publicized and that Iran was, you know, perhaps behind some of this stuff.
It is kind of scary.
And if you think about it, too, like, doesn't Iran have their hands pretty deep into a lot of places, not just in the Middle East, but in South America and, you know, and in parts of Africa and stuff?
Aren't they kind of everywhere?
hannah claire brimelow
I think they do have an influence network that they've developed over time.
I think people think, oh, they're in the Middle East and that's far away and we don't think about it.
libby emmons
But they're kind of everywhere.
hannah claire brimelow
And I think that's true for a lot of countries, right?
There are a lot of countries that have influence in America and other nations that they don't broadly publicize.
unidentified
Right.
hannah claire brimelow
Again, this journalist's decision to publish this, to me, seems like he's trying to front as, I'm doing this for democracy and because the free press is good and I think you deserve to know this information.
But really, that seems to be more of an effort to cover up a desire to become famous, to become an elite journalist.
And, you know, that to me speaks to something Melania Trump did in an interview, or at least it was released today, with Fox & Friends, and she was talking about, you know, she reflected on a lot of stuff, but one of the things she said was, like, the opposite, the other party in the media are pushing this narrative that divides us, that encourages hateful actions, and again, you know, Libby can probably speak to this a lot, but all editorial boards, all editors in the world have to have this conversation that's like, we have this information.
Is this newsworthy?
Can we verify it?
What's the standard here?
And while there are a lot of really great journalists on Substack, in this case, this guy said, like, looked at himself in the mirror and said,
I've decided this is worth publishing, and I don't care about the consequences to anyone,
but how it'll impact me.
tim pool
There's big outrage that he got suspended.
And I want to show this post from Ed Krasenstein, because he asks some questions that we can answer for you.
He says, first, I'm going to start off by saying I'm against doxing.
For those unfamiliar, this is a liberal personality.
He's prominent on X. He says, with that said, the below screenshot is a publicly available filing on Alaska's government website that shows all of J.D.
Vance's public information, including his home address, email address, and children's names.
This is a public filing for candidacy.
It's available on Alaska.gov website.
If you search, it's also available on plenty of other public and government websites.
My question to X and Elon Musk is this.
At what point does something get labeled as doxing?
The infamous New York Post article shared multiple private email addresses of Hunter Biden and multiple associates.
Yet X criticizes Jack Dorsey for blocking it.
X hasn't deleted posts made with my email address, phone numbers, or photos of my kids.
They claim that the information is available elsewhere on the internet, so it's not considered doxxing.
So where is the consistency?
What are the black and white rules we need answers?
All private email addresses viewed the same as private phone numbers, addresses, photos, texts, messages, emails.
He makes a few good points, I'll agree with him.
People have published his private information, and they've not taken it down.
Because Axe does play it both ways.
They did this under Jack Dorsey and it's still happening now.
I like Elon Musk and I trust him much more than Dorsey and Vijay Gade.
But the argument here is this information is J.D.
Vance's private information.
That's where you got it from.
Don't aid and abet people who are trying to do bad things.
So just because the information exists somewhere doesn't mean you have a right to go tell people how to find it or post it on the site for everyone to plainly see.
I take issue with how X actually handles this, for the most part.
Because what they claim is, if your information can be found anywhere on the internet, it's allowed to be published on X. And that is absolutely psychotic.
So if a hacker, in this instance, hacks private information, sends it to a journalist, and they publish it, well, interestingly, in this instance, they did take him down.
Why?
It's an honest question.
I don't like the double standard.
You shouldn't be able to post anybody's private information no matter where they got it from.
libby emmons
Yeah, I think that that's right.
You shouldn't be able to publish it.
Looking at it though, I didn't think that the New York Post published a lot of private emails.
tim pool
Not only that, but that wasn't hacked.
libby emmons
Yeah.
And that was the argument, of course, is that the FBI told Twitter and Facebook that if they received, essentially, that if they received a Hunter Biden laptop, that it would be Russian disinformation or hacked or something like that.
So they believed it to be hacked for sure, even though it wasn't.
But that is a difference.
It wasn't hacked.
tim pool
Was not.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Not hacked.
hannah claire brimelow
I mean, again, I don't think the points are bad at all.
I just think that means that more people's private information should be treated like it's serious to leak that information on Twitter.
And I think especially, again, it's difficult when it's a public figure because they think any platform might Yeah, I mean, what's funny too, though, is that people's public information used to be readily available.
The phone book handed it to everyone in this great big thing called the White Pages.
Still does.
Still exists.
And it has, yeah, it has your address and your name and your phone number just right there in it.
libby emmons
Yeah, I mean, what's funny too, though, is that people's public information used to be
readily available.
The phone book handed it to everyone in this great big thing called the white pages.
tim pool
It still does.
libby emmons
It still exists.
And it has, yeah, it has your address and your name and your phone number just right
there in it.
And it wasn't a big deal to have it be like, oh, I know where you live.
It would be like, yeah, well, so does everybody in this zip code.
Like, everyone knows where everyone is.
hannah claire brimelow
It was different when it was like something your community knew maybe someone would be
able to look up.
Because now, you know, again, if you're a public figure, and I'm happy to include the
craftsman season this like, you don't know what someone who obtains your address is going
to send you or if they're going to show up like.
The security risks are very different.
When we lived in smaller communities, if you're not as high profile person, it's not that it isn't serious if someone sends you something bad in the mail, but the odds of it are a little bit less likely.
libby emmons
Well, you have the whole swatting thing.
I mean, that's really scary.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah.
libby emmons
And dangerous.
You know, you just have cops show up.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah.
libby emmons
Guns drawn.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah.
libby emmons
Ready to blow your face.
hannah claire brimelow
But I really feel like a lot of this is the word dossier, right?
Like the last time I feel like I remember it used widely in American Media was the Steele dossier.
I mean, there's this idea that the dossier is full of, you know, scandalous secrets and it's going to reveal all of these things they're trying to hide.
But actually, it's just sort of a collection of information.
And I wonder if that's that was one of the reasons someone was tempted to publish this because they thought, oh, you know, the word dossier will draw attention and implies that they're ashamed of these things when it doesn't.
libby emmons
How did BuzzFeed get a hold of the Steele dossier?
Was it leaked to them?
tim pool
It was circulating in the media.
All these journalists had it and were sharing it.
libby emmons
And they just ran the pee tape thing first?
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
And they did this stupid garbage where they're like, we think this is newsworthy.
It's not right that journalists can see this and you can't.
And it was like, well it's all unvetted garbage gossip.
You know, it's like, imagine I made a dossier, and it was like the Kamala dossier, and it's all just garbled nonsense as a joke, hands it off to a journalist, who hands it off to a journalist, who hands it off to a journalist, rumors start circulating about the Kamala dossier, and then someone's like, I think people have a right to see what we're talking about.
And then it's like, you know, Kamala Pete on the bed with hookers or whatever.
That's what they said about Trump.
It was just made up garbled nonsense.
They turned it into a story.
My favorite Trump era news story will always be when the Huffington Post tweeted, somewhere there may be a video of Trump doing something in an elevator.
What he was doing, we don't know.
Where it was, we're not sure.
But it's the white whale of journalism.
It's like, are you kidding me?
They published that?
These people are psychopaths.
libby emmons
Yeah, that is crazy.
tim pool
Yeah, we live in a we live in a web of lies.
unidentified
There are a lot of lies.
libby emmons
That's just really, really consistent.
hannah claire brimelow
I mean, that was a lot of what I remember of the criticism of Trump in 2016 and going through his presidency, which is like, it was like the media had this this promise of the ever evasive scandal that was about to come out and they're about to uncover the saying and this is true of, you know, the tapes, but also like, Oh, his foreign dealings and he did this thing wrong and actually maybe there's something like it was just constant, like they were about to unveil something big and they never did.
Whereas, you know, with the Biden administration, scandals would pop up pretty naturally and they'd be like, it doesn't seem like that big a deal.
libby emmons
Well, it's such a weird thing because the double standard is so obvious and nowhere is it more clear than in the classified documents case with Joe Biden.
And Donald Trump.
So Donald Trump is the president.
He leaves with some documents.
Every president does it, right?
Bill Clinton notoriously kept private documents in his sock drawer, right?
oli london
Hillary's emails as well.
Hillary's emails.
hannah claire brimelow
Clinton's also left with furniture from the White House and had to return it.
libby emmons
Are you kidding?
That's severe.
I could see that, like trying to just make off with Abe Lincoln's side table.
But yeah, like you had the Justice Department say that, obviously, they said that Bill, not Bill Clinton,
the other one, Joe Biden, that's his name, that Joe Biden couldn't be prosecuted
for keeping classified documents, even though he had absolutely no cause to keep them.
And Trump is, they still are trying to get the fact that the case was dismissed.
They're trying to get that overturned and get back into that situation with Trump.
It's absurd.
So when you see something pop up, you immediately start to think, how am I being lied to?
How is the Justice Department, you know, weaponizing itself against the political opponents of the Biden-Harris administration?
How is the media spinning this?
Like, those are your first thoughts.
Your first thoughts aren't, you know, about the news story or about whatever happened or the implications of it.
Your first thoughts are, who do I distrust most in this story?
Who is lying to me?
hannah claire brimelow
Right.
oli london
Yeah, and then you had Melania Trump this morning on Fox & Friends basically saying how it was an invasion of her privacy, they went through all her belongings, and she was obviously very upset about that.
And you know, these people, she was the former first lady, but they're still human beings, you know, and to have the FBI raid your home, go through your personal possessions, you know, family photos and Whatever, you know, it's she was clearly upset by it.
And she's obviously wrote about that in her book.
And it's like, there's such a double standard when Joe Biden has all these documents in his garage, you know, he seems to get a free pass.
But then when it comes to Trump, it's like this constant witch hunt trying to get him and it's like, there's doesn't seem to be equal justice between you know, the candidates.
hannah claire brimelow
Right, and I think Melania Trump is a great example of this because she has been so ostracized for being married to Donald Trump, even though she is, you know, a very private person.
I mean, she didn't really rock the boat as first lady, and yet everyone kind of acts like she is Uh, culpable for all of the criticisms that they have of Trump.
I don't care if you criticize Trump, but, you know, it was kind of ridiculous when designers were like, we're refusing to dress her.
She's literally our supermodel first lady and you are saying our perception or our understanding of what we think you guys represent as a couple is more important than reality.
tim pool
That's wild.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Let's jump to this story from the Postmillennial.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams to be arraigned on corruption and bribery charges on Friday.
He's said to be arraigned after the indictment.
Adams was charged with five counts, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud, federal program bribery, to receive campaign contributions by foreign nationals, wire fraud, solicitation of a contribution by a foreign national, and bribery.
Adams, say bribery twice.
libby emmons
Sorry.
tim pool
Oh, federal program bribery.
So it's a different thing.
libby emmons
No, I had that same thought when I was writing it and I was like, didn't I already write bribery?
And yes, I had, but it was two different things.
tim pool
Adam's official residence of Gracie Mansion was rated on Thursday morning, but I'm not going to read it.
You wrote it.
What's going on?
libby emmons
Yeah, so Adams is going to be arraigned tomorrow.
I wonder if we're going to get a mugshot.
That would be really quite a thing, you know.
And he was indicted on Wednesday.
The indictment was handed down.
It was revealed in court today.
And basically, the story goes, according to the Department of Justice, that Eric Adams, since he decided to run for mayor in, what was it, 2018 for his 2021 Run ended up involved with Turkish officials, people with Turkish Airlines, that he was getting a whole bunch of free upgrades, you know, that anytime he had to travel, he would try and take Turkish Airlines because they'd give him free upgrades.
That they also were funneling, Turkish Airlines and other Turkish officials were funneling campaign contributions illegally through strawman donors in the U.S.
because it's not legal for them to contribute.
Only individuals can contribute.
And a whole bunch of other laws were allegedly broken through that, that the officials were like, how much can I give?
And they found Turks in the U.S.
To give them cash and funnel money that way.
And then it's alleged that Turkey used their leverage over Adams recently, demanding that he get the Turkish consulate opened, despite it having not passed fire inspection.
tim pool
I believe it.
libby emmons
I believe that, you know, it's certainly, I mean, yeah, he definitely could have done all this stuff.
New York is a very corrupt place.
tim pool
The argument is selective prosecution.
libby emmons
That's what's interesting about it.
tim pool
Right, like does, what was it, like $100,000 in gifts or something?
libby emmons
Yeah, there was $100,000.
But the other part that they're alleging, too, is that with the campaign contributions, New York also has this election matching program.
So they give you election funds based on funds that you've raised.
So they're saying that because of the illegal contributions that he got, he then leveraged those monies to get contributions, and he essentially defrauded New York by taking those matching funds.
tim pool
He's claiming because he pushed back against Joe Biden.
That's why they're coming after him.
Donald Trump speaking today said, as soon as I saw Eric Adams complaining about the immigration, I said, he'll be indicted within a year.
And then he gets indicted.
That being said, famously, Eric Adams was giving $4,000 per migrant family to permanently settle in New York.
And it was a huge uproar only a couple weeks ago.
So I don't really buy That the federal government was like, we better shut him down.
Why?
Because they wanted to go further than $4,000 per family to permanently settle in New York?
I mean, that's egregious.
hannah claire brimelow
One of his criticisms, or one of his criticisms of the Biden administration, also one of Governor Kathy Hogel's criticisms was basically, you are not issuing work permits fast enough for all these people who are here.
I mean, they did push back against Biden.
It's just not that they didn't become sort of pro mass deportation or anything.
They pushed back in the way that you would expect a Democrat to, basically saying, you are not very good at this.
You have created a problem we are now handling.
That was all true.
libby emmons
Give us more money and more resources right now, which, you know, It was about a year ago that Eric Adams was saying that the border crisis was going to destroy New York City.
He was very vocal about that.
And he was actually heading down to Washington, D.C.
when his former campaign manager's office was raided by the FBI.
And so he never made it down there to the meeting of mayors to tell, you know, Biden that they were doing a bad job to give him what for, you know.
So he had to turn around, head back to New York and deal with this whole scandal, which has continued to unfold.
hannah claire brimelow
As has the immigration issue in New York.
libby emmons
Right.
I mean, there's been a lot of resignations recently.
You know, who resigned?
oli london
Yeah, so I was just going to say that that's the debate on X at the moment is Eric Adams obviously has facilitated the migrant crisis with the, you know, hotels being booked out just for migrants, the credit card scheme, and many other things as well.
But it comes after Governor Hochul's former chief of staff was arrested.
And they basically said that she was a Chinese She was a Chinese agent, basically a foreign agent.
And then it comes, of course, the NYPD commissioner had to resign.
So it all seems to be coming at once.
And, you know, Trump was obviously kind of suggesting that, you know, it's because Eric Adams pushed back, Governor Hochar was pushing back.
But they have also, as Tim said, they have allowed this to happen for the last few years.
And, you know, when you go to New York, it's very sad to see what's happening there.
And there's a lot of crime and, you know, the NYPD are doing a great job, but they're struggling, clearly.
tim pool
Real quick, Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
chimed in and he said, now that Eric Adams is being indicted, right-wing influencers love him even though he's a race hustler and a POS.
I'm tired of the grifting from the right.
hannah claire brimelow
I think the right is too quick to forgive Eric Adams on this one.
I mean, you brought up the NYPD commissioner.
His resignation is actually technically separate, right?
It's an investigation into influence peddling having to do with nightclubs.
Like, you would get a noise complaint, you pay people off, whatever.
But to me it does speak to maybe the culture of the cabinet that Eric Adams has surrounded himself with.
People who view their office as an extension of their ability to influence the city and to seek benefits for themselves.
The schools commissioner also resigned.
To me, again, the fact that there are like multiple issues at play for one city.
I mean, it's the largest city in America, but one city's governing body does not speak well of the person who appointed them.
And that is Mayor Eric Adams.
You know, I do think he pushed back in his own way against the Biden administration.
I don't think that that necessarily means that he is a super ethical person.
Remember, what he wanted for the Biden administration was more money and work permits.
libby emmons
He did.
He did want more money and he wanted them to take responsibility for what they'd done.
But I mean, there's something you have to understand about New York City, which is Eric Adams was the most conservative candidate running, other than Curtis Sliwa, who is the head of the Guardian Angels and lives in a studio apartment with 20 cats.
He lives in a studio apartment with 20 cats.
It's hard as New Yorker to vote for a single man who lives in a studio apartment With 20 cats.
I don't know.
tim pool
I don't even care what politics are at this point.
I'm sold.
libby emmons
Amazing.
20 in one studio apartment?
This was what I remember reading at the time.
This is a lot of cats.
hannah claire brimelow
I hope he featured them in his campaign ads.
libby emmons
He seems okay, but I don't know that he would have been able to wrangle the government under control either.
I think we do need a better mayor.
John Katsimatidis is an option.
How about Cuomo?
tim pool
He's gonna run.
libby emmons
He is totally gonna run and he's gonna win.
He's definitely gonna win.
tim pool
Is he Republican?
libby emmons
I think he'd win no matter what he ran as.
I don't think it would matter.
He could run as an independent.
tim pool
He could run as a libertarian because it'd be funny.
libby emmons
I think that he would win.
But the people of New York still love Andrew Cuomo, and they don't think that any of the sexual misconduct allegations against him were legit.
And I'll tell you something else, neither does Letitia James, because they pushed him
out of office with these sexual misconduct allegations.
They didn't care that he killed a bunch of people in nursing homes.
They just cared that he patted some girl on the butt and she didn't like the hug or whatever
else.
tim pool
He was kissing people, remember?
libby emmons
Oh no, he was kissing people.
hannah claire brimelow
He's Italian.
He was Italian, you guys have never seen the cold sweat.
libby emmons
You know, just like my great uncles.
tim pool
He posted all these pictures of him basically doing what he's accused of doing, being like,
I'm Italian, what's the problem?
libby emmons
Hey, oh.
hannah claire brimelow
Most New Yorker votes I've ever heard.
libby emmons
Well, it's the truth.
So they would totally vote for him.
But they forced him out of- She never brought charges.
No, yeah, they forced him out of office.
She never brought charges against Cuomo because all they really wanted was to install Kathy Hochul,
which they did do.
And I feel like in this case, they definitely want to get rid of Adams.
You know, he was not the darling.
Maya Wiley was the darling in this case, who all of the progressives wanted her to win the mayoralty back then.
And she's the one who just recently appeared before Congress and when asked what a woman is, said, a woman is anyone who says she is.
oli london
Well, the problem is now with the Eric Adams scandal, you've got progressives like AOC jumping on the bandwagon, basically calling for his resignation.
Biden was asked earlier, do you think he should resign?
And he just said, I don't know.
Joe Biden doesn't know what's going on.
He doesn't know where he is anyway.
tim pool
He called J.D.
Vance the Secretary of Vance.
oli london
A lot of people in New York are worried now because if Eric Adams was to resign, there's Jermaine Williams, who's the city's public advocate, he could temporarily take over and he is a radical BLM activist, mask loving.
nuts. He's been arrested multiple times. He's very much anti-police, anti-NYPD. So when you've got
someone like AOC calling for Adams's resignation, you've got to think who's next in line. It would
be 10 times worse. Whatever criticism people may have of him with his handling of the migrant crisis,
a BLM activist that's anti-police in a city that's got so much crime,
unidentified
that's going to be 10 times worse. It can actually definitely get worse, New Yorkers.
libby emmons
Yeah, I mean, and it has been worse before.
Look at Bill de Blasio.
Bill de Blasio was worse than Eric Adams.
tim pool
Remember how under Bill de Blasio rats were running around attacking people?
libby emmons
Yes, I do remember that.
tim pool
You were there, right?
libby emmons
I lived there under Bill de Blasio.
tim pool
So people are walking around New York and they would see like five to six rats just running around looking for food because they're starving and they'd like chase people.
libby emmons
Yeah, Bill de Blasio, whose COVID czar was engaging in sex parties while, you know, rolling on ecstasy.
And, you know, he just figured he needed to let off some steam.
That story really has me steamed, personally.
But you also had Bill de Blasio being like, everybody stay home and we're calling off New Year's Eve, even though that's what we're known for.
And you guys can all watch live on CNN while Andy Cohen gets drunk and me and my wife Dance in Times Square, empty, like tin pot despots.
Oh my goodness.
hannah claire brimelow
Was that the year they had the little quarantine stages?
libby emmons
Yes.
tim pool
And then he violates all the rules so he can have a private Times Square.
libby emmons
With his wife who then they eventually like got divorced and had some sort of polyamorous thing and now he's in Michigan.
That loser.
hannah claire brimelow
How is he in Michigan?
libby emmons
Oh, he's, like, literally a professor.
He's, like, teaching somewhere.
tim pool
Didn't he, like, spend time in Venezuela or Cuba or something?
libby emmons
He did everything wrong.
Just... I'm sure.
He changed his name.
His name is not, like, Bill de Blasio.
He made that up.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
tim pool
What was his... It was, like, Walter or something.
libby emmons
It was, like, Wilhelm something German.
Oh, yeah.
tim pool
Wilhelm.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
That's so weird.
We live in weird times.
libby emmons
It's very bizarre.
tim pool
Just very weird.
libby emmons
But so when Eric Adams showed up to try and run on the Democrat ticket and the options were like Maya Wiley, whoever the legacy of Bill de Blasio was, and maybe it was Bill de Blasio.
Was he running?
He might have been.
Was he out?
And Eric Adams, people went for Eric Adams because he was the more conservative choice.
And then he did this crazy thing that my son will never forgive him for, which was instituting vegan lunches on Fridays in all New York City public schools.
tim pool
No, for real?
libby emmons
Yes, he did.
unidentified
Yeah.
hannah claire brimelow
He's like rabid vegan.
unidentified
And then my son would come home on Friday and he'd be like, I'm starving!
tim pool
That's messed up because the vegan food is garbage.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
It's not food.
I'm sorry.
It's not food.
When I was at the RNC, we were at a hotel and I was buying breakfast from the hotel.
I'd go in and it's like 10 bucks and you get all the eggs, bacon, sausage, whatever.
On one day, I open up the sausage thing and I look at him and I'm like, Hmm.
oli london
You could tell.
tim pool
Something doesn't look right.
And I was like, I'll take one.
I took it, and when I pressed my fork into it, it, like, excreted a milky fluid, like a sponge.
And I looked at it, and I was like, what is this?
And I took a piece, and I started chewing on it, and I spat it out.
And I asked the waitress, I was like, this is not sausage.
And she's like, no, it is.
And I was like, no, it isn't.
And she's like, let me go ask him.
And then she came back out, and she was like, We're sorry, that was vegan sausage.
And I was like, dude, people could get sick from eating this.
I'm not kidding.
It's not food.
It was disgusting.
libby emmons
It sounds really gross.
hannah claire brimelow
I don't know people that have really serious allergic reactions to vegan alternatives, right?
Vegan cheese is made of cashews.
If you're allergic to cashews, you should probably know what it is.
libby emmons
I mean, the thing too is there's plenty of cuisines in the world that are very strict vegetarian, that don't have dairy and all that, and they have centuries of Making actual good food.
You know, we don't have to eat weird, fake, milky sausages.
tim pool
We need to switch things to a more optimistic tune.
So, in this story from the Postmillennial, they write, Republicans in the lead on party ID for the first time in third quarter of a presidential election year, according to Gallup.
Of U.S.
adults, 48% said they identified or leaned towards the Republican Party, while 45% said that of the Democratic Party.
There you go.
Have a good day, everybody.
Feel good about yourselves.
libby emmons
Yay.
tim pool
Because Kamala Harris is losing.
And it's a big deal.
I actually went back on the Gallup poll to 2020 and 2016.
Around this time, it was always heavily Democrat.
People were leaning Democrat, and they were not leaning Republican.
And then I'll just give you this one.
This one's really funny.
NJ.com, the way they wrote the story was hilarious.
It was, new swing state polls, very bad for one candidate.
You know, New Harris versus Trump poll shows trouble in swing states for one candidate.
Yeah, which one?
You know why they wrote it this way?
I want to ask you, Libby, as someone who writes headlines, why do you think they wrote a nondescript headline like this?
libby emmons
They wrote a nondescript headline because they want you to click on the story.
tim pool
I believe that's normally the case.
libby emmons
That is normally the case.
tim pool
But I think there's a different reason as to why they're doing this now.
hannah claire brimelow
I think they want you to assume that it's Trump who is suffering.
libby emmons
Oh, do you think so?
hannah claire brimelow
And that Harris is doing well.
libby emmons
Interesting.
tim pool
I don't think so.
hannah claire brimelow
Really?
tim pool
I mean, possibly.
But I think there is—now the suspense has built.
It is because if they write the headline that Harris is losing, people will get angry and they will not click it.
hannah claire brimelow
Oh, interesting.
libby emmons
You think they'll just be mad?
tim pool
For a fact.
I know this from when we make headlines.
You know, that you have to, like, first of all, something has to make someone angry, but in a way that makes them feel like they can do something.
I'm pretty sure at NJ.com, it's New Jersey, they're probably thinking, if we put new swing state poll has Harris down, people are going to refuse to look at it.
They want their own opinions regurgitated back at them.
So you got to write it in a way that they can't really tell.
And so you're wondering, I wonder who it's gonna be bad for, but lo, it is Harris.
Harris ain't doing so well.
unidentified
Trump's winning.
libby emmons
She's been being criticized by leftist pundits now, too.
I mean, she was criticized a little bit last night by the MSNBC host who interviewed her.
You know, she was saying, hey, where's the substance on this?
She's been criticized by some people on CNN.
She's not getting the pass holistically.
Yeah, I think there was something that was going around, like, drink every time she says holistically, and it's like, you would be drunk, like, depending on.
So yeah, I think that that's, I think that's happening too, because in part, I think a lot of these news networks are realizing that if they just keep lying and keep trying to ride on vibe, they're not going to have any access to a Trump White House.
And that would be disconcerting for them.
tim pool
So we saw that story the other day about Zuckerberg being libertarian.
Yeah, that was interesting.
I think it's the same thing.
I think he's sitting there being like, Trump's going to win and the iron fist is coming down on my face, so I better turn things around and make him happy.
oli london
I was going to say, Ben, you've also got Zelensky now agreeing to having a meeting as well.
So I think there's a lot of people now panicking, thinking we better get in Trump's good books because he's going to win.
tim pool
I'm loving it.
All the stuff we're seeing right now is indicating that power structures have already determined Trump won.
I hope that's the case.
hannah claire brimelow
Otherwise, if you're voting, don't take it for granted.
Please go.
I know.
I think Libby's point is interesting in part because I wonder if you're the media, you're used to being like, well, we scratch the Democrats back, we prop them up, we give her the softball interviews, and then they give us exclusives and like key information and we're able to like use it for stories and content and so on.
And so far they propped her up.
They did the thing they know they're supposed to do.
And the Kamala Harris campaign has been like, Great, we'll give you no interviews and no specifics on policies and no information and we'll just sort of hang back here.
I mean, the mainstream media might be scared that they are not getting access to a Trump White House, but I think they're also realizing if they continue down the path they're going, they're guaranteeing that they'll get nothing from four years of a Harris Walls administration.
It's kind of hilarious.
libby emmons
Yeah, that is pretty funny.
hannah claire brimelow
She's not doing them any favors, right?
libby emmons
No, she isn't doing any favors, and she wouldn't give access anyway if they, you know, like you're saying, if they go into a Kamala Harris White House, they wouldn't have access there either because she's not going to give any access.
We can see every time she does an interview, there's like all this buildup.
She's gonna do an interview, you guys!
Maybe she's gonna say something that matters!
tim pool
I think she would give them access.
I just think they all realize it's access to what?
libby emmons
Well, there's no substance.
tim pool
Holistic, unburdening.
What are you going to get?
You can't squeeze blood out of a turnip.
hannah claire brimelow
I think she's realized Joe Biden has done very few interviews.
It looks like I could be a president like this.
She's given very few interviews on the campaign trail.
She's realizing that she is the one with the power because the media, again, will be submissive and praise her no matter what.
And so if they don't change their ways, they're kind of stuck.
They may hate Trump, but he gives them a lot of content.
There's always something to say about Trump.
libby emmons
Trump is good for business.
hannah claire brimelow
She's giving them nothing.
libby emmons
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Well, Trump's winning.
Hope y'all are happy about it, because Kamala Harris is freaking out.
Drew Hernandez has this post.
It's pretty funny.
He says, if you're wondering why Kamala is going down to the border in Arizona tomorrow, this is why.
Her campaign emails are in disarray.
The campaign is falling apart just about a month out from the election.
And this is why she's begging for a debate.
Harris-Waltz emailed the New York Times.
It's released new polls of Georgia, Arizona, North Carolina.
Unfortunately, Trump leads in all three states.
Trump's up by five in Arizona, four in Georgia, and two in North Carolina.
Now, to be fair, they do this on purpose to generate money.
They want you to be scared, sense of urgency.
That being said, she's still down.
The New York Times did publish this poll.
She is losing, and it's pretty wild to see.
Following the debate, when even Nate Silver is giving her the edge and saying it looks like she's going to win, I'm just sitting here being like, Do you guys learn your lesson?
Biden was up seven points this time in 2020, and Trump supporters were pushing and pushing and pushing, but they could not win the procedure.
That's the game the Democrats played.
These polls are really good for Donald Trump.
My question, then, in the inverse is, are Republicans going to learn their lesson?
libby emmons
And show up and vote?
tim pool
Yeah, they better, because these polls I don't know if these polls are big enough to beat the shadow campaign, right?
But ultimately, you've got the media.
Let's separate the argument from the election.
In the argument, Trump's winning across the board.
I mean, if you look at the bias of 2016 and 2020 and today, Trump is actually up a couple points.
They give Democrats between a four and seven point edge in the swing states.
So Trump is clearly winning.
Harris knows it.
She's freaking out.
She's going to the border.
It's like the second time or is it the first time?
libby emmons
Well, yeah, it's the second because she was appointed Border Czar in March 2021.
She talked to the president of Venezuela, of Guatemala, rather.
And then by June, her office was saying that wasn't her job anymore because she'd been so successful.
No, they just said it was never her job.
tim pool
Right.
And now even Fox News won't say it.
libby emmons
And I think she went to the border once, but it was El Paso.
She went to El Paso.
hannah claire brimelow
She went near the border.
libby emmons
She went near the border.
In proximity.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Is that where they put, like, corn relish on hot dogs?
libby emmons
I don't know.
I don't think I've ever been to El Paso.
tim pool
Or no, that's Texas, right?
unidentified
That's Texas.
libby emmons
It sounds like a Texas thing.
Corn on hot dogs.
tim pool
Well, it's New Mexico.
libby emmons
Is it?
I don't know.
tim pool
Yeah, New Mexico.
libby emmons
I've never been there.
I've always wanted to go to Santa Fe, honestly.
hannah claire brimelow
Santa Fe's supposed to be super cool.
libby emmons
This is what I, yeah, I want to see the old pots.
hannah claire brimelow
I'm closer to the border than Kamala Harris ever has in her whole life.
tim pool
I mean, but like, let's just talk about the seriousness of Kamala Harris going to the border.
Wow, she must be doing really bad.
libby emmons
Desperate.
Their internal polling must be really, really pretty bad.
tim pool
They know it.
They know they're gonna lose.
libby emmons
And there's no way for her— I mean— So long as people actually vote.
I mean, I think that Republicans are people who support Trump, which in many cases probably doesn't mean Republicans necessarily need to show up and vote.
Like, the numbers have to be too big to deny, you know?
Because if they're close, they could very easily screw around.
We already know, and The Washington Post has told us, that the numbers won't be available on an election night,
that Pennsylvania's numbers won't be in on election night because Pennsylvania, and I think, is it Georgia or Arizona,
they won't start counting the mail-in ballots until the day of.
So what that means, essentially, if you have a bit of a tinfoil hat on,
if you want to, you could imagine that they see the results coming in from everywhere else
and they can make their own decision as to what's going on there.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah, I think the Harris-Walz campaign is in trouble on a lot of fronts.
Uh...
There's a Fox News poll that came out today that said nine out of every ten Americans are locked into their vote.
So there are a certain number of people who are like, I'll probably vote for Harris, but I'm not sure.
But for the most part, also for Trump, right?
They lean, but they're not sure.
For the most part, Americans know who they want to support.
And to your point, the question is, are they actually getting their ballots?
Are they are they mailing them in?
Are they going to vote on election day?
You could say, I know I'm going to support Trump, but it doesn't mean anything unless you cast the ballot.
And I think that's the big challenge for conservatives, Republicans to overcome.
But for Kamala Harris, The big criticism of her before the debate among undecided voters was that they didn't know enough about her.
They didn't know what her policies were.
They didn't know what she stood for.
They wanted to hear more specifics.
oli london
They still don't know.
unidentified
Right.
hannah claire brimelow
This is someone who's been in the White House for four years.
Now, vice presidents are sort of sometimes in the background.
But, you know, like she's been on she was a senator.
She's been on the national stage for a while.
And they're saying we don't know what her values are.
We don't know what she's promising us.
And she has still continuously failed to deliver specifics.
And it's just kind of expecting everyone to roll with it.
Like if she gets enough pop stars to say they're voting for her for non-specific reasons, you will too.
I think that that's not something that will motivate independent voters and she needs them.
tim pool
All these pop stars coming out and saying they're voting for, you know, Kamala.
libby emmons
Who do we have so far?
What's the tally?
We have Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish.
hannah claire brimelow
And Chablis Wong said yesterday that she's gonna... Who is it?
She's this, like, upcoming big star.
She's got, like, some big red hair.
libby emmons
She seems super annoying.
She's like, I'm so depressed because I'm famous!
hannah claire brimelow
Well, she got in trouble.
There was some pushback because she wasn't willing to, like, speak badly about Republicans.
But she was like, I'm gonna vote for Kamala Harris.
And I think maybe her uncle is in the, like, Missouri legislature as a Republican.
Which I would love if we could stop condemning, you know, everyone all the time.
But she does the song Pink Pony Club.
That's been really popular.
oli london
Good luck, babe.
That's very popular on TikTok.
hannah claire brimelow
She's had a crazy summer.
tim pool
So JoJo didn't endorse, did she?
Or she just said Taylor Swift was brave for endorsing Kamala.
So listen, we saw the polls.
Taylor Swift ain't moving the needle for anybody.
Most of these pop stars are targeting a disinterested faction of people.
Like, union workers are a big deal, but Teamsters are leaning Trump.
So if Kamala's gonna look for new voters, what is she gonna do?
Taylor, quick, help me find voters.
She's gonna be like, my fans don't care about politics.
hannah claire brimelow
No, and when Taylor Swift endorsed her, she was like, she has the right character, but didn't name a specific policy.
And this is what the undecided voters are saying.
Kamala Harris, we need specifics.
And her campaign is like, get another celebrity in here.
libby emmons
Well, the DNC also is really trying to get out the vote among expats.
hannah claire brimelow
And in Arizona, the Harris-Walz campaign is, sorry, I've said this a hundred times, but I think it's so funny.
They're specifically trying to motivate members of the Church of the Latter-day Saints.
They want the Mormon vote, which Mormons are famously conservative and Republicans.
libby emmons
Well, Mormons just had a big fundraiser for, I know because Tommy Stevenson at the Post Millennial covered this, they had a big fundraiser in Utah for Trump and Trump went out and it was like a whole Big thing.
hannah claire brimelow
Between 2016 and 2020, he gained 15 percent.
He gained it on almost all religious groups, but Mormons in particular, he gained like 15 percent.
It's amazing.
I mean, like, I don't know why the Harris Wall is wasting their time.
libby emmons
It's interesting.
tim pool
Indeed.
Well, we do have another celebrity who made an endorsement of sorts.
Macklemore actually apologized.
You guys see this one?
So there's a big story where Macklemore is a rapper.
He said, F America.
And he regretted that.
So then he comes out and says, sometimes I slip up and get caught in the moment.
I think this is indicative of this country is fed up with the anti-American sentiment.
They're fed up with Democrat policy.
They're fed up with a bad economy.
And so insulated people like McElmore, this dude's loaded, right?
He's super rich.
I'm gonna tell you this, Don Lemon, McElmore, I guarantee you they don't know how much milk costs.
You know why?
They don't go to the grocery store.
They ask someone to go to the grocery store for them.
Or, if they do go, then look at the price.
They just grab it.
Regular people go there and say, okay, which one's going to be cheap?
You know, we'll grab this one today.
We're going to do skim today.
Because you've got a budget.
This guy has no idea what's going on.
He gets up at an event, and he says straight up, say it.
I'm not going to stop you.
The rapper said, yeah, F America.
Well, people got really mad at him.
So he went on Instagram and said, you know, my thoughts and feelings are not always expressed perfectly.
Sometimes I slip up and get caught in the moment.
Saturday night was one of those moments.
Here's what I think.
I think he saw a major backlash.
This is why all the pop stars, I noticed this.
I started looking at their Instagrams.
When they endorsed Kamala, they disabled their comments.
libby emmons
They sure did.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Because they know what's coming by doing that.
libby emmons
Yeah.
Yeah, and I think there's also a realization among a lot of people, I think Americans have woken up about a lot of things, you know, and I think COVID was a big motivator as well.
But it just keeps coming.
And people are like, I can like your music, I can like your TV show.
I don't have to be at all in line with your politics.
I don't have to like your politics.
And I don't have to hear about your politics.
I don't care what they are.
And I want you to stop telling me about them.
Please sing your nice songs.
Make your scary movies.
And don't tell me anything else.
I don't need to know about it.
The idea of the celebrity as all-encompassing cultural and political touchstone, perhaps,
flying out the window.
We haven't seen a lot of Susan Sarandon recently.
Remember when she was always out there going nuts?
Jane Fonda was out there knocking on doors for Kamala Harris.
One woman cried.
The Kamala Harris campaign, you know, they publicized that because when white women's tears aren't weaponized, you know, they have to capitalize on them instead.
But I think in a lot of ways, people just don't need that anymore.
You know, they don't want it.
oli london
The rapper Pharrell Williams said something very interesting the other day.
He basically said, you know, to all the celebrities, just shut up and be quiet because nobody really cares about your opinion.
And you know, in the 90s, the early 2000s, celebrity was like a cult.
And now people are kind of getting sick of these multi-millionaires preaching about climate change.
You know, like Prince Harry, they're on a private jet.
You know, Taylor Swift as well said some comments about the environment, yet she's, I think, the number one celebrity that uses the private jet the most.
libby emmons
She uses it to go to the bodega.
oli london
So out of touch, and you know, when you've got a very bad economy, the prices are up, gas prices, people are struggling right now, and then you have someone saying, you know, F America.
I mean, you know, it's just, what are you thinking?
his crowd, it was a pro-Palestinian event. So they were all cheering because a lot of them have anti-American
sentiment. But I think he's only apologized because he lost out
on a performance, the Neon Carnival in Las Vegas, which is Neon Festival, which is a big deal. And I think he would
have probably had pressure from other events that would have
told his management, look, if he doesn't issue a statement, you're
going to lose some gigs. And I think these celebrities, a lot of
them are very selfish. They're lost in their own world. They've
got an ego. He's got a history of being very kind of anti-Western
capitalism.
He's very, very woke, very pro- Very anti-Semitic as well.
He dressed up once in a caricature of a Jewish person on stage.
You know, he's got a history of having all these kind of woke ideas and I think, you know, I don't think he would apologize from the heart.
I think he's had pressure after being cancelled from the Las Vegas event.
hannah claire brimelow
Because he's definitely not as big as he was.
I mean, he had this meteoric rise at one point.
What I actually remember is Macklemore, he used to have, you know, the shaved sides and longer head.
And then people were like, that's longer hair on top.
Whatever, you know.
libby emmons
He has a cone head, in fact.
hannah claire brimelow
He said, someone, he got up a lot of flack.
Years after he got famous, they were like, that's a fascist haircut.
And he apologized and said he would change his hairstyle.
libby emmons
He apologized for his old fascist haircut.
I think some of the anti-celeb stuff, too, started in COVID.
hannah claire brimelow
Remember when everybody... There was Sam Smith crying in his house about COVID lockdowns, and everyone's like, you live in an 8-bedroom house.
libby emmons
That was a sample of what they want the future to look like forever.
rendition of imagine and they were like just stay home I'm staying home here in
my palace in the Hollywood Hills and we're all just sitting there like
Curtis Lee when our apartment with 20 cats being like the hell I'm stuck here
y'all are dancing in Times Square and hold up in Hollywood Hills and like come
unidentified
on everybody you're awful that was a sample of what they want the future to
tim pool
look like forever yeah they want a surf class and then they want to do whatever
they want case in point when they all fly on their private jets to their
climate change summits.
libby emmons
Or Kim Kardashian, who recently, I think, flew to France to get a specific pastry.
tim pool
Well, hey man, I mean, what kind of pastry was it?
libby emmons
It looked like a really good pastry, which reminds me, like, I bought this special butter.
I'm going to try and learn how to make croissants.
tim pool
She's like the bad guy in Iron Man, where he's like in the airport and he's like eating the, he's like, I got this imported from Italy for breakfast.
I eat my dessert first.
This is, we, we caricaturize these people for being villainous by doing these things.
libby emmons
That was in, um, that was in, what was it?
Was it Basquiat with Andy Warhol?
And, uh, was it some, it was not Basquiat, it was some movie with Andy Warhol character in it and Basquiat.
And Basquiat's like, Andy, can I get this caviar?
And Andy's like, oh, sure.
Otherwise you'd have to go to Russia.
Let's get the caviar.
hannah claire brimelow
I remember the blowback from Kylie Jenner.
Her very small daughter, you know, maybe two or three years old, was carrying a very small Birkin bag.
And Birkin bags are extremely exclusive and luxury.
And people respond to it.
I remember one comment was like, this child is walking around with my entire salary on its arm.
I mean, I think there is a level of, like, if you make the money, you can spend it how you want to.
On the other hand, you're not necessarily endearing yourselves to the people.
libby emmons
And you can't just go buy one, either.
hannah claire brimelow
You can't always just pretend it's, like, aspirational, right?
You have to, like, get it special.
unidentified
Yeah.
hannah claire brimelow
Like, people start to say, like, you live in a life that's completely separate from mine.
So when you're Taylor Swift and you endorse Kamala Harris despite the capital gains tax, like, you obviously have so much money that it doesn't matter, whereas the economic policies of the president does impact average Americans every day.
tim pool
Yeah, I think the worst thing about these elites, especially Democrats, they've isolated themselves.
They have no idea what's going on.
And then they tell the people who are suffering that they're wrong.
Like that Don Lemon, you know, Atlantic City thing he did.
The guy's like, I'm voting for Trump because I can't afford groceries.
And he's like, actually, the economy's really good.
Like, dude.
hannah claire brimelow
You asked me my opinion!
tim pool
It's that family guy joke where Peter's in the elevator with one other guy.
Peter farts and then says, it was you.
Like, dude, you're not convincing anybody.
Like, I have to go to the grocery store and buy groceries.
What are you talking about?
libby emmons
Yeah.
Can you just say that?
I keep being surprised at my grocery bill when I get to the end of the self-checkout where I do the job for the cashier that the grocery store has fired so that I can do the job instead as though I don't have some other job.
tim pool
And then it keeps going, please place the item back in the...
hannah claire brimelow
It makes me crazy.
libby emmons
I just want to kill everyone.
Yeah, I just stand there and it goes, help is on the way.
hannah claire brimelow
But it's not because there's no one there.
libby emmons
It's not on the way.
It's not on the way.
I hate that so much.
But anyway, and then you get to the end.
And it's like you're being robbed.
And you'd like the little self checkout machine may as well pull out a gun and be like, now give me your entire debit card.
Yeah, the whole thing.
hannah claire brimelow
I feel like every time I go, I'm like, okay, I'll like, I think it's about this much.
It's always higher.
libby emmons
I'm never- Oh wait, I was- the other day, I thought I was spending $60 and it was $150.
And I was like, how did this happen?
tim pool
We have to buy- we buy all the snacks and all the groceries for the warehouse.
I think I just ordered some jerky.
And so considering, I think- The number is we probably have, I don't know, 15 to 20 people coming and going and doing various things.
Not every day.
There's 30 to 40 people who, but some are remote.
I think for one month of just like snacks, you know, jerky, drinks, and I'm not talking about the craziest, most expensive stuff.
We've got Cheez-Its in the other room, right?
libby emmons
I love Cheez-Its.
tim pool
I think it's like $3,000.
libby emmons
That's a lot.
oli london
For a month?
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
For a month of just like, yeah, it's crazy.
And I mean, I guess I'm not really providing a good context as to what it's relative to, but you know, we've got goldfish, Cheez-Its, I don't touch that garbage.
libby emmons
You just buy it for everyone else.
You guys eat this.
tim pool
They love it.
I mean, look, who am I?
You know, I'll try and convince people to not eat the garbage, but they want the garbage, so.
libby emmons
You don't just buy a bunch of bananas, some apple chips.
tim pool
The bananas go bad so quick.
libby emmons
Really?
People don't eat them?
tim pool
Not fast enough.
libby emmons
We go through so many bananas.
tim pool
Oh, come on.
If I get a bunch of elk jerky or meat sticks, those things will be gone in a day.
If I get bananas, they'll just rot.
libby emmons
That's terrible.
tim pool
This is what America is, man.
libby emmons
This is like at my house and my son will be like, what do we have for a snack?
And I'll be like, there's bananas, there's yogurt, there's fig bars.
hannah claire brimelow
It's like, this is not it, mom.
libby emmons
There's some dried apricots.
tim pool
Yeah.
libby emmons
There's leftover dinner.
That's a snack.
tim pool
Yeah.
But it gets hefty.
I guess I can say it relative to this because a couple years ago we always bought the little salami packs and they were seven bucks and now they're 15.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
That makes sense.
libby emmons
Those are expensive, yeah.
tim pool
But I'm happy to see that people like Macklemore and Taylor Swift and Hayley Williams and JoJo and whoever else can sit on their high horses and have no idea what's going on in the real world and endorse someone who's going to burn it all down around us.
And who supported people who literally did.
A really good example of this is that guy, famous moment, and we loved it.
He was tweeting during the George Floyd riots from Beverly Hills.
You guys remember this one?
I think it was with ESPN or something.
unidentified
He was like, yeah, get it, burn it down, let's go.
tim pool
Then like 20 minutes later, he's like, wait, why are they coming towards here?
Don't go here, go downtown.
And then an hour later, he's like, get out of my property!
They're coming in, they're jumping the walls!
Well, you know, welcome to the real world, buddy.
libby emmons
Yeah, go team up with the McCloskeys.
tim pool
Yeah.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Man, that's wild.
Shall we jump to the next story?
We got this one from the Postmillennial because everything's from the Postmillennial.
Toyota promotes DEI, supports child sex change, divides employees by race and gender.
Toyota seems to have forgotten who their core customers are.
Well, don't buy from them.
Buy a Tesla.
libby emmons
Yeah, this is Robbie's Starbucks strikes again.
He's killing it out there.
tim pool
I was gonna say, it's actually really funny.
If you want to be anti-woke, you got to buy the electric car.
Elon Musk is calling all of this stuff out every day.
And he's selling electric cars.
And Toyota is selling the gas guzzlers.
And their woke is a joke.
hannah claire brimelow
Remember when Elon Musk didn't get invited to the electric vehicle summit at the White House?
tim pool
Yes, he lost it.
libby emmons
Part of that was because, I mean, that's the Biden-Harris administration being under pressure from the UAW because Tesla is a non-union shop.
hannah claire brimelow
That's interesting.
I just assumed it's because they hate Elon.
libby emmons
They hate Elon, but the reason they can't give Tesla any credit is because Tesla's non-union, and so they need that union support across the board.
And because, I mean, sympathy strikes are illegal because of the Taft-Hartley Act, but certainly boycotting a political campaign with your donations is not illegal.
tim pool
Let's play this video from Robbie here.
Robbie's been doing great work calling out these companies.
He's basically turned cancel culture back on them.
robby starbuck
Alright y'all, it's that time again.
It is time to expose Toyota.
They have gone totally woke.
You are not going to believe what is under the hood of this story, so strap in because it is insane.
If you're even slightly moderate, you are going to be questioning if you should ever give this company a dime in the future.
tim pool
So that's a 13 minute video, so we'll just read it.
Toyota's the latest come under fire for DEI.
Robbie Starbuck, a conservative activist and filmmaker, released a report on the matter
Thursday saying it's time to remind them who their customers are after investigating.
The findings reveal that diversity and inclusion is the framework of the company.
Toyota which has a 100% commitment to DEI policies gives preferential treatment to diverse
suppliers and has employee resource groups that divide workers based on race and sexual
orientation.
Okay, that's just like the weirdest thing.
libby emmons
That's weird.
tim pool
You mentioned working for a company and they're like, okay, and we're going to do shifts now.
Who's gay?
You'd be like, uh, do I have to tell you?
Like, well, if you want the good hours, you better speak up now.
libby emmons
Well, this is a thing too that is prevalent not just in all of the industries that Robbie Starbuck has been exposing, but when I used to work in New York with some architects, you would put in your proposal for public projects and there were lots and lots of quotas.
There weren't sexual orientation quotas at that time, but there were lots of quotas that you had to meet in order to just submit your proposal.
In terms of the, you know, makeup of your team.
And there was like, you had to like have this many, you know, this, this proportion of black owned firms, this proportion of women owned firms or whatever it was, you had to make up what was it called the MWBE requirement minority or women owned businesses.
And there was essentially one black owned engineering firm.
I think it was in New Jersey.
And that firm was on every single team that was getting submitted to the city.
And there was only one.
There was just the one firm.
And also, they changed the rules so that if you were Asian or South Asian, then you no longer counted as a minority.
hannah claire brimelow
Not diverse enough.
libby emmons
You were not diverse enough as an engineering firm because there were just so many South Asian-owned engineering firms.
But yeah, I think that would be horrifying.
Could you imagine if, like you were saying, you go into work and you're like, well, you're not the right shade or you're not attracted to the right people.
That's happened to you for work?
tim pool
Yeah.
Yeah, I worked at Fusion.
And they did something called the Black and Brown Forum.
And they had their top personalities except me.
And they brought in a contractor who was a black man.
And I was just like, I don't know.
I'm not going to sit here and go beg, you know.
But I had a meeting with the president.
After they did everything, did all the promos, and they were filming, and I was like... And then I asked them, and I was like, quick question, is there a reason why I wasn't involved in that?
And they were like, well, it's the black and brown forum.
And I was like, yeah, and?
And he's like, well, you're too white.
And I was like, I'm mixed race, don't you know that?
And he was just like, yeah, but you look white.
You can't ask Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders questions because you look too white.
That's what I was told.
Not that you are.
It is great that you are mixed.
That is diversity, right?
libby emmons
But you look too white.
They judge books by covers, as the saying goes.
tim pool
Yeah, I mean, I probably should have sued, but the company went bankrupt anyway and ceased to exist.
hannah claire brimelow
I feel like the fact the framework of a car company is something other than, I don't know, making cars is sort of strange.
Why would you want to cultivate an environment where it's actually completely obsessed with Who in your office is sleeping with who and their race?
Doesn't that seem like very backwards?
I thought people were against this kind of behavior.
oli london
Yeah, and Robbie's had a lot of success recently.
So he's been exposing all these woke companies.
Started with John Deere, and he actually got them to push back a lot of their things.
Because, you know, you think of the John Deere customer, it's farmers, rural, conservatives, you know, mostly Republicans.
He actually got them to scale back on the DEI policies.
He then exposed Harley Davidson, which again, you don't associate with all this woke nonsense.
He actually got them to basically commit to leaving the HRC Uh, Corporate Equality Index program, which is basically the thing that all these companies use to promote DEI, woke diversity hiring, pushing all the LGBTQI plus policies.
So, you know, there is, there has been a lot of success, especially with conservatives for the last few years with Bud Light, Target.
I think these companies, you know, they, they do this because they're signed up to this HRC thing.
Then the moment they get exposed and then they start to see the profits tumble because They're upsetting their core customer base with all their conservative customers.
That's when they start to change.
So he's actually been very effective with his campaign.
hannah claire brimelow
And the HRC rating is, to me, it's one of these things that is so crazy.
It's a effectively progressive institution that started scoring businesses that then they started to take seriously and care about.
So then they were able to dictate, here's how you get a good score.
tim pool
Public Square should do that.
hannah claire brimelow
We should do it.
We should make them up all the time.
tim pool
Toyota, you get a 1.
It's bad.
hannah claire brimelow
Maybe a .5 unless you shape up.
libby emmons
Very bad number.
hannah claire brimelow
It's only credible because people have started to legitimize it.
And that's true of a lot of these progressive-based institutions that are saying, you know, they're the cleanest or they're the diversest or they're the most...
Their opinions don't actually matter and they have an agenda they're pushing.
The second you decide this is how I'm going to legitimize my company, you're actually taking sides in all of this.
If you're a tractor company, I really feel like you don't need to.
oli london
Just make tractors, exactly.
hannah claire brimelow
Yes, make tractors, make cars, make motorcycles.
libby emmons
Make tractors, do well by your employees and your stockholders.
tim pool
But you guys understand what this is, right?
The reason why they have a diversity officer at all these companies?
This is how they create Chinese communism in the United States.
So the Chinese Communist Party is in every single company, and you've got party members who operate in the company and tell people what they're supposed to do, and they're trying to implement that here in the United States, and they're doing it through DEI.
That's why it makes no sense, but it's all ideologically driven.
Fall in line, march in lockstep.
And this is, it's totalitarian.
It's not too dissimilar to how the Nazis operated.
And I know it's cliche, people say Godwin's laws, but this does apply.
The Nazis, people say, oh, they were socialists.
No, they were capitalists.
You're a liar.
They were left-wing.
No, they were right-wing.
The socialists used fear of being ostracized.
And the general idea was, if you were a company, you were free to do whatever you wanted.
But why aren't you making steel for the war effort?
And it means bad things if you're not with the people.
So they effectively used cancel culture style heavy handed politics to force everyone in line with the things they wanted done.
So it wasn't overt socialism or communism like people expect, but it was very much the will of the people to be done or else.
So what they're trying to implement now is likened to the Chinese Communist Party.
They want everybody to fall in line with their ideological values, and they're doing it through economic means.
If Toyota can fire you for not abiding by their ideology, they remove you from the economy.
You can't buy food anymore.
Private sector, it's like It's almost like communism exploiting the private sector.
So they can figure out ways to punish people for deviating, but this is why all of these big companies have the same core ideological faction.
Because the ideological faction wants to remove people from the market if they violate, if they don't go along with their new cult or religion.
And so they start injecting it into different companies, then those companies can fire people and you can punish them.
oli london
Yeah it's basically like in China they have in some cities the social credit score where people are named and shamed and they can't do certain things, they can't you know get a job for instance if their score is low and that's what this kind of thing it's basically like that the HRC score system is basically you know if you get a low score you're a bad company all your employees are bad and stuff it's trying to like you were saying vilify these people and make them fall in line just with COVID when you had the craziness of You go into a restaurant, you wear the mask, you take it off and you sit down, then you put it back on.
Same with the plane, you're on a plane, everybody has dinner at the same time, you all take the mask off for 10 minutes, put it back on.
It's that trying to get people to fall in line and if you dare go against that, you are a heretic, you are blasphemous.
That's kind of how they try to treat you, you know, like in the medieval times when you're considered a witch, you know, because you might be an outspoken
woman. They try to vilify you and it's, you know, speak to anyone from a communist country. I think
you've probably had Yeonmi Park on the show. Zee Van Fleet, who's from China. They will
tell you what's happening in America now is exactly what they fled from. Lili Tang Williams,
they fled from that and they are sounding alarm bells now. This is happening right now and,
you know, we need to do something.
tim pool
Have y'all watched Three Body Problem yet? No.
We talked about it when it first came out, but this is a tremendous cultural victory for those who believe in freedom.
It's on Netflix, I believe.
It's based on a book, and the series starts in the culture revolution.
So they actually filmed this huge scene where you watch professors get beaten to death, and all the people are cheering with the red books and everything.
And it's kind of shocking that You wouldn't expect Netflix or a US institution to be critical of communism right about now when they're doing all this weird stuff.
libby emmons
Well, but all of these companies, too, are finding that they are perfectly willing to backtrack, you know?
tim pool
Once the money starts disappearing.
libby emmons
Once the money starts disappearing.
tim pool
They thought they could slip it under the rug.
libby emmons
Which I kind of respect.
Like, if you're a shill for one side and then, you know, that side stops paying out and the other side starts boycotting you and then you're a shill for the other side, like, at least you're an equal opportunity shill.
Yeah, I think we're winning, though.
That's a little bit honest.
hannah claire brimelow
Do you think any of the competitors are looking at what's happening and saying, we've got to scale back our thing right now?
oli london
Yeah, I mean, again, with Robbie's campaigns, you've seen when he exposes these companies, like Harley-Davidson, after public pressure, after media pressure, they do actually scale back.
You saw it, of course, with Target.
They actually completely scaled back their pride collection.
They didn't have the tuck-friendly swimwear this year.
libby emmons
They stopped putting it right up front.
oli london
stuff. Exactly. Right. They realize that, you know, when you're shoving it in people's faces, they don't want that.
So I think there is a big win.
unidentified
Accessories, exactly. Literally satanic.
oli london
Literally, the designer was, you know, doing these Baphomet t shirts and stuff for kids. So now I think when the
companies care about profit, and today, yes, they do have the di Yes,
they have no black rock pushing these di things on the companies. But when they're losing millions of dollars,
that's when they start to change.
So I think there is, you know, people are winning this cultural war, but they do need to be more outspoken and say, look, you shouldn't be pushing this as a company, just stick to making cars, stick to making tractors, nobody cares.
about your political opinion.
Same with celebrities, nobody cares, you know, you know, your political opinions,
just keep it to yourself, you know, why can't you do that?
And we've seen quite a few celebrities that haven't endorsed Kamala Harris
when they're, we know they're Democrat, like Beyonce's very, very, of course, Democrat,
but some of these celebrities haven't completely endorsed them publicly
because they know there's that backlash now.
They know, you know, they're turning off their comments.
They're getting people actually trying to say, why do you support this person?
She's allowing all the illegal immigration or the trans kids, you know?
So I think a lot more people now are less obvious with all of this kind of DEI stuff.
hannah claire brimelow
I think with celebrities in particular, we can all assume that you're, it was almost more fun when with the conservative celebrities, you'd be like, I think that one's a Republican.
You know, they didn't want to say anything, but you sort of be guessing.
libby emmons
Like Adam Sandler, Kelsey Grammer.
unidentified
Right.
hannah claire brimelow
I'm going to default assume all of you are voting Democrat.
You don't need to tell me.
I get it.
With companies though, I mean, having this, you know, Toyota, having this car company, Face Defects, I assume You know, probably all of them have some level of DEI policy since it's so widespread now.
It's kind of infiltrated everything.
With these exposures, does it need to be systematic?
Like, do we now need to move on to Nissan and Subaru in the next one?
Or is it enough to have Toyota have this effect?
Will that encourage the other ones to change?
Or do you think they'll just try and hide what they're doing?
tim pool
You know that meme of Death knocking on doors?
We need that, but it's Robbie Starbuck knocking on doors, and it's the companies that he's approved.
oli london
I think he's actually shared that meme of all the companies that he's been going around, and he's then saying the next one is... That should definitely be his Halloween costume, you know?
tim pool
Call him out!
Should we get serious for a minute, ladies and gentlemen?
We're going to get serious.
I know it's not the most entertaining of subject matter, but we got serious news that I think is going to be important for people.
This is the Category 4 hurricane that is hitting Florida right now.
For those that aren't aware, this is serious, and we have a very serious story.
Click Orlando says, Florida residents who choose to ride out... Is it Helene?
Is that how you say it?
libby emmons
Yeah, Helene.
tim pool
...told to write name and information on arm.
They're being very nice about it.
I believe what the sheriff said was, if you choose to stay behind, please write your name and date of birth on your arm with black markers so we can identify you when you die.
That is so terrifying.
Yeah, right.
So, sheriff's deadly warning.
Ron DeSantis has declared a state of emergency ahead of the unprecedented storm.
It's already flooding.
I don't know, man.
This is why I'm always saying... We got this video from Benny Johnson.
We'll pull that one up.
This is why I'm always telling people to prepare, not because you need to be a prepper who has 30 years worth of beans stored in your basement, but because sometimes it rains.
And so this is a video that Benny Johnson posted.
He said this is a road in Tampa.
It's already- the storm surge is already flooding.
Look at that, that's wild.
unidentified
Wow!
Not even as crazy as it could be.
tim pool
But, uh, I don't know, man.
libby emmons
I hope he and his family are safe.
tim pool
Is Benny in Florida?
libby emmons
I think he lives in Florida.
tim pool
Everybody's in Florida.
libby emmons
I don't know where people live.
hannah claire brimelow
They live on the internet, Libby.
libby emmons
I thought everybody moved to Florida during COVID.
hannah claire brimelow
You can't dox anybody.
Who knows?
So Hurricane Katrina was a Category 3 storm, and they were saying this is going to be a 3, but now they're saying it's going to be a 4.
tim pool
It's already a 4, isn't it?
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah, that's what I heard.
As of this morning, I was hearing it predicted as a 4, which means this is stronger than Hurricane Katrina.
And do you remember how devastating Hurricane Katrina was and how long it took for New Orleans to recover?
tim pool
This is the biggest known storm in the Gulf?
hannah claire brimelow
That's what I heard.
libby emmons
This is worse than Katrina?
Katrina was a three?
Yeah.
Oh, dear goodness me.
hannah claire brimelow
That's the perspective I feel like we all have to embrace.
libby emmons
That is crazy because Katrina was so bad.
hannah claire brimelow
So bad.
libby emmons
Remember people died and there was like people getting rescued from their roofs.
And well, remember the Superdome and everybody?
tim pool
But part of the problem with New Orleans is that it's built underwater.
libby emmons
Well, and they had levies break, and there was extra flooding.
hannah claire brimelow
New Orleans has structural problems, but this one is fascinating.
When you watch the storm maps come through, I mean, the kind of eye of the storm, the most intent part, when I was looking at it, the warning went all the way up to Macon, Georgia.
I mean, parts of the main part of the storm, I think, are projected to hit Charlotte, North Carolina.
tim pool
We're going to get a hit.
hannah claire brimelow
That's wild.
I mean, with all hurricanes, you get a little bit of, like, you get rainy weather if you're in the North Sea through it all.
It's so strong that, like, this will be severe weather disruptions for most of the East Coast.
That is crazy.
tim pool
Yeah, we're in West Virginia, and the reports are that once this passes through, it's going to be serious storms.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
Not a hurricane, of course.
It's over land.
It's going to start breaking apart, but it's going to be a massive storm surge for several days or something.
libby emmons
It is crazy driving around here in torrential rain.
It's scary.
I've done that.
Indeed.
Yeah, I drove once with With Andy now from New York to D.C.
and there was like monsoon-style rains and it was one of the many instances there have been a couple where I was like, oh no, don't let me kill Andy in a car crash.
hannah claire brimelow
There will be parts of the country where the rain and flooding because of the geographic challenges like dips and valleys and everything else, people won't, they'll know that Florida has to prepare for the hurricane, right?
Florida's out of, you know, you can see all the videos of people like buying up all the water and doing what else, like sandbagging their doors.
libby emmons
It sounds like they need to just leave.
hannah claire brimelow
Well, but then there will be parts of the country where they will probably experience intense flash flooding, but because they're not like used to being in the eye of the hurricane or at least that's severely impacted, I bet that they will have car accidents where they are like, well, we all got to
get on the road now and then they're in this monsoon style
weather. I mean, I think weather preparedness is number one very
hard, you know, I think what they were all hoping was that this storm would die off, right, that it would it would be
weakened over and it just got stronger and stronger.
tim pool
It was heading west. And then I remember seeing people be like,
please don't turn east and then the hurricane went right up the
unidentified
other way.
hannah claire brimelow
Hurricane said what did you say?
tim pool
Take a look at this video. It speaks for itself.
So for those that are just listening, it is a...
looks like a John boat or something.
It's got a, it's got a motor, a Trump flag, and they are riding their boat down the street.
I must, I will add the wrong way down to one way.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Not that I think it matters.
hannah claire brimelow
Hurricane season in Florida, laws don't matter.
That's not true.
I'm just kidding.
libby emmons
Well, perhaps the traffic laws are relevant anyway.
hannah claire brimelow
Like you have this, uh, regulated as a road, but it is clearly a river.
tim pool
I mean, I feel like they're lucky that it's, uh, Whoa, look at this.
Holy crap.
libby emmons
Why is he driving in that?
tim pool
Yeah, you can't drive... This is part of like flash flooding, right?
hannah claire brimelow
Like they don't realize how fast the water's going to accumulate.
tim pool
Or you don't, well, you, like, you can't really tell when you're driving on a road if you're gonna, if how, if it's going downhill or not.
libby emmons
Right.
tim pool
And so you're looking down this path and you might not realize it's actually a 10 foot slope.
libby emmons
Right.
tim pool
So you drive down and before you realize it, you're like in the puddle.
You're underwater.
Look at this, man.
This is crazy.
We don't, we don't need that wind noise.
It's a sheriff vehicle driving in massive flooding.
You know, they're lucky though, they got Ron DeSantis.
libby emmons
I was thinking that, too.
I was thinking, like, it's good that he's still the governor and not out there on the campaign trail.
tim pool
Not just that, but I mean, could you imagine, like, if he wasn't the governor and you had a bad governor, what would, what would Biden, like, Biden's not going to say anything.
He's not going to do anything.
libby emmons
No, he never does anything.
oli london
He wouldn't even know there was a hurricane.
tim pool
He probably doesn't know there's a hurricane.
And Kamala's like, I'm running for office.
libby emmons
And if it doesn't hit Rehoboth, he has no idea.
tim pool
I think, regardless, he wouldn't have any idea because his brain does not work.
libby emmons
No, his brain doesn't.
unidentified
He would just be sitting there going, huh, Secretary of Vance, what's going on?
It's windy.
tim pool
It's windy.
I'm an old man.
And Kamala Harris.
libby emmons
There goes the umbrella.
tim pool
Kamala would be doing anything.
So, you know, here's an opportunity to see.
I'm curious what Trump might do in response to this campaign-wise.
You think he might show up with supplies?
Remember when he was throwing the paper towels to people in Puerto Rico?
Oh, yeah.
And I don't understand why the left got so mad about that.
libby emmons
The left gets mad about everything he does.
They just hate him.
I mean, he could do anything and they get mad about it.
It doesn't matter what he does.
tim pool
He was throwing out paper towels.
libby emmons
I mean, if he personally went out and aborted babies, they'd be mad And they love abortion.
tim pool
No, they'd flip on abortion in two seconds.
libby emmons
They would flip.
They'd be like, Trump is aborting baby, he's such a murderer.
Yesterday we loved abortion.
tim pool
Remember the Babylon Bee when they said, you know, ingenious move, Trump comes out in support of impeachment, forcing Democrats to oppose?
Yeah.
That's the game.
libby emmons
Exactly the whole thing.
Yeah, they hate him and they don't care what he does or what he says.
And that's sort of, I think, what makes it so much easier for people, I think, to support Trump this time around, you know, openly.
How many days do we got left?
There's openly, what is it, like 41?
No, I think it's 39 today.
unidentified
Is it? 39!
libby emmons
But people are not shy about supporting Trump anymore.
They tell CNN they're supporting Trump.
They tell anybody.
They're like, what, I support Trump.
You guys have been lying this whole time.
Everything you say is totally made up.
oli london
You've got people you wouldn't expect, like Mark Zuckerberg.
Basically, he did a call with Trump after the assassination to make sure he was okay.
Normally, four or five years ago, you wouldn't have that because they'd be worried about the backlash.
But now it's become very cool to support Trump and to be open about it.
You even had Davos earlier this year.
JP Morgan, CEO, actually was praising Trump's how the economy was. So you have people that wouldn't have
spoken out maybe in 2016 because oh it was bad to be pro-Trump. Now they're actually
thinking you know what he's the only one he's probably going to win you know we need to to get
libby emmons
behind him. Wasn't it Jamie Dimon just recently saying that Kamala Harris's policies were not good?
oli london
Yeah and there's been quite a few hedge fund managers as well that have basically said that there
was one that said he'd sell off all of his assets if she's elected.
libby emmons
Oh, that's scary.
tim pool
Has anyone actually just stopped and thought for a moment, like, we speculate, but what do you think is actually going to look like if Trump wins?
libby emmons
If Trump wins?
tim pool
Like, what's the first thing he does?
Who's he bringing in?
libby emmons
I think the first thing he does is try and deal with the Ukraine-Russia war and make that stop, because he keeps saying that that's what he would do.
tim pool
I wonder.
libby emmons
You don't think so?
tim pool
No, no, no.
I'm not saying no.
I'm just saying like...
He's got all these criminal, like the DOJ stuff, the state level stuff in Georgia and New York.
Democrats are going to start foaming at the mouth and banging their heads on the walls.
libby emmons
They're going to try and imprison him in New York, whether he wins or not.
tim pool
Right.
They are trying to imprison him in New York.
libby emmons
Yeah.
I mean, but the sentencing is, what, after the election at this point?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
It's going to be wild with RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard.
libby emmons
I mean... Do you think they'll be, like, in the cabinet?
tim pool
Yes.
libby emmons
Yeah.
I love that.
Yeah.
I really would love to see RFK Jr.
whip our health system into place, especially where he keeps talking about nutrition and the chemicals in the body and all of that stuff.
I mean, it's so disgusting to go to the grocery store and look at the ingredients and be like, I can't eat that.
I don't even have any idea what that is.
hannah claire brimelow
And to know that other countries don't have that.
libby emmons
They don't have it.
That's what bothers me.
hannah claire brimelow
I've never been more fascinated by Bernie Sanders.
I don't know if you guys saw this, but the CEO of Nova Nordisk, the maker of Wachovia and Ozempic, was testifying for a Senate committee this week, and Bernie Sanders was pointing out Ozympic in America is over $900, but in Germany it's like $72.
In the UK it's less than $200.
You're kidding!
I mean, you know, and these people, I mean, obviously celebrities use them to lose weight, and they are marketed at times as an anti-obesity medicine, but they're also for people with diabetes.
I mean, these are very serious drugs that could help people with chronic conditions.
Why is it that we have to pay not just like twice as much, but like 15 times as much as some countries.
And I feel similarly about the food ingredients.
I mean, why is it that we can't just say, no, we don't want these things in it?
You already make it this way for somebody else.
oli london
Yeah, just as a British person, I'll say that you have the same products here, but taste completely different.
So for instance, Cadbury's chocolate, I can't even eat that here because the sugar is just so sweet.
And in the UK it tastes much, much nicer.
hannah claire brimelow
Much better than the UK.
oli london
Much better.
And then also Lay's crisps, Lay's chips.
In the UK we have Walker's, which is the same company but completely different taste.
Here it just tastes like salt.
So there's a huge difference because they're a lot more strict in the UK and also the EU with ingredients.
There's a lot of things they don't allow.
Additives and chemicals and, you know, E number ingredients.
Whereas in the US they have, of course, all the cornstarch is completely different.
tim pool
What they do here is, you know, RFK, you had a really great video on this.
There's something called tartrazine.
libby emmons
What's that?
tim pool
Do you want to eat it?
libby emmons
No.
tim pool
Probably not.
It's yellow dye 5.
libby emmons
Do you remember, were you guys, you don't guys don't remember this, but when I was a kid, they took away the red M&Ms.
tim pool
Yeah, because wasn't it red dye five or something like that?
libby emmons
Red dye number five.
tim pool
Was it five?
So I was allergic to that and I remember when I was a kid I had crunch berries and I busted out in hives and then they were like, we did the allergy test and they were like, it's the red dye, don't eat it.
But the messed up thing is that they take words like, what's the word?
Let me Google it.
They'll change the words and create brands so that you're okay with eating it.
libby emmons
Oh, because then the chemical is a brand name?
tim pool
That's funny.
Not so much a brand name, but like, they can create a new name for it.
Right?
So there's something called a cheddar powder.
Do you know what a cheddar powder is?
libby emmons
Isn't that crickets?
tim pool
It's crickets.
oli london
No way.
tim pool
And so there'll be chips and it'll say cheddar cheese, cornstarch, a cheddar.
And then you're just like, I don't know.
oli london
They put crickets in some chips?
unidentified
Yep.
oli london
Wow.
libby emmons
Yeah, they want you to eat the bugs, Ollie.
oli london
Oh, shrub.
tim pool
And they don't call it cricket.
They call it a cheddar.
And crickets taste bad.
Sorry, they don't taste good.
I know because I tried them.
I don't mind eating bugs.
Lobsters are bugs.
They're big bugs.
They taste great.
They're bugs, I guess.
They taste pretty good.
Roly polies are in the same family as lobsters, aren't they?
I'm not gonna eat bugs if I don't have to.
I'll eat lobster because it's delicious.
But the issue is that they're tricking people into doing these things.
So they know if they put on the food label tartrazine and like parasite powder, they're like red dyes derived from some insect that they pulverize into a dust and then put in- Oh, it's probably those little tiny red bugs.
libby emmons
You know, those little tiny red bugs?
unidentified
Little tiny, they're like little- No, no, no, it's not those.
tim pool
What is red dye made of?
Coccinial insect.
libby emmons
Gross.
oli london
Like a cockroach?
tim pool
Uh, let's, let me...
libby emmons
C-O-C-H-I-N-E-A-L?
tim pool
Here we go.
This is what you're eating when you're eating red dye.
This is what you are eating.
They take these little bugs and they mush them.
See?
They mush them.
These little red bugs.
oli london
So they're putting that in like chips and things like that and snacks?
tim pool
Yeah.
Candy isn't vegetarian when they're... When you drink fruit punch, when you're eating little candies and fruit snacks, this is what you're eating.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
It doesn't need to be colored that way.
They do it so it looks... And it's nuts!
I don't want that garbage.
I don't want to eat it.
libby emmons
I don't want any of that.
tim pool
So I'm staying away from all that stuff.
hannah claire brimelow
One of my sisters would take, when she was really small, that we'd give our children Benadryl.
And it would make her more hyper.
And her pediatrician was like, oh yeah, this is a reaction to red dye that's sometimes in Benadryl.
And I've noticed now, this was a long time ago.
libby emmons
Why do they put red dye to make you hyper in Benadryl?
hannah claire brimelow
It's not supposed to.
Just like a certain percentage of kids have this reaction.
So I remember, like, it was just difficult to find the dye-free, but now the dye-free is everywhere, I think, because people are more aware that, like, just because they say it tastes like berries, everyone knows it's medicine.
It's obviously not berries.
We don't need to dye it red and potentially put something additional into your body separate from someone like my sister who has a reaction to it.
tim pool
We gotta stop eating garbage, guys.
libby emmons
Yeah, I'm all on board with that.
hannah claire brimelow
But it's weird because I am kind of advocating for more government regulation, which I would normally be against, but in this case, like, how, what is happening where Americans are somehow just getting the worst products and have no way to demand better.
libby emmons
Well, we have no way to, yeah, like how much of the meat comes with antibiotics in it, right?
Like if you want to buy meat that's just like, you know, free range without all these drugs in it, without pesticides, it costs way more and it's really hard to find.
You know, that's like a real, that's a real issue.
unidentified
Yeah.
libby emmons
The stuff with the, um, you know, there's GMO or whatever in our vegetables.
We don't even know what's in them.
We don't know what's, what's in the food that is grown, that we buy fresh.
tim pool
Okay.
I just got to say this, right?
You don't want to eat a cheddar, do you?
libby emmons
Crickets?
No.
tim pool
No, but you'll eat these.
You'll eat coquineal insects.
libby emmons
I don't really eat a lot of candy.
tim pool
It's in soda, it's in everything.
libby emmons
I don't drink soda.
tim pool
Vitamins?
It's in anything with red dye.
libby emmons
I think we should try and find one of these things that I actually eat because so far we have not landed on it.
tim pool
What do you normally eat?
hannah claire brimelow
Please, you make a lot of your food at home.
I think the problem is for Americans who have to depend on pre-packaged foods.
libby emmons
Even when I make frosting, even when I make buttercream icing, I use actual strawberries to make it.
Which doesn't come up red.
Did you know that?
If you make strawberry, it comes out white.
hannah claire brimelow
Of course, that makes sense.
But if you're someone who is on the road all the time, you are dependent on having pre-packaged foods.
unidentified
Oh, for sure.
libby emmons
It's not easy.
And I do travel a lot, and it's hard to get decent food.
So I'm always going to the grocery store and being like, here is some yogurt, here is some bananas.
hannah claire brimelow
Because you can't just rely on food sources.
libby emmons
No, and it is hard when you travel to get fresh veggies and stuff.
You know, or any kind of fresh food.
If you go to a restaurant, it's even hard to just get fresh food.
tim pool
How about that?
oli london
Oh, don't tell me.
I'm actually vegetarian, so I hope there's no bugs.
No, no, no.
tim pool
That was good.
The Yerba.
oli london
Oh, no.
I hope there's not.
Okay, so what are we looking for?
tim pool
Red, um... Yeah, what is... Yerba probably doesn't got any dye in it.
I don't think.
That's a hippie drink.
Yerba Mate.
libby emmons
No, it's all... I wonder if there's dye in orange juice.
tim pool
Is it empty?
oli london
Have a look, yeah.
hannah claire brimelow
It depends on the brand.
oli london
It doesn't say any red dye.
tim pool
It's not just that.
Let's see.
It's got... This is yerba.
Purified water, organic cane sugar, organic yerba mate extract, organic yum berry juice concentrate.
libby emmons
What is yum berry juice?
tim pool
I have no idea.
hannah claire brimelow
That better be a real berry.
tim pool
That doesn't sound... Organic brewed yerba mate and hibiscus flower.
Let's see.
Citric acid, raspberry, blackberry, natural flavor, and organic caffeine.
hannah claire brimelow
Yum berry is a real thing?
Native to Utah?
tim pool
It's not so bad.
libby emmons
It's a bayberry.
Chinese strawberry.
It's actually pretty good.
tim pool
There's nothing in here that I would be like, what is that?
oli london
No bugs, thank God.
hannah claire brimelow
So we can make and mass produce these things.
Somehow our system is just not demanding that it's standard.
tim pool
Why?
Okay, so I got a spindrift right here.
Okay, these things are hugely popular.
Everybody's starting to buy them.
It's ingredients, carbonated water, grapefruit juice, orange juice, lemon juice, hibiscus.
I know what all of those things are.
There's only a few ingredients.
And I want all of those things in my body.
I love hibiscus.
You ever eat one?
They taste great.
They put them on your plate and you can eat them?
libby emmons
Yeah, I like hibiscus.
tim pool
Fantastic.
Why do they need to add three, four, five tablespoons of sugar to this to give to children?
Why can't you just drink this?
libby emmons
Seems better.
But yeah, I don't buy that.
tim pool
Which is unhealthy.
libby emmons
I don't buy that stuff.
I don't put it in my house.
tim pool
Do you give your kid Brussels sprouts and spinach?
libby emmons
Well, for dinner tonight, what do you have?
Chicken, potatoes, and broccoli?
tim pool
That's based.
libby emmons
Well, it's a normal dinner.
It's just, like, very basic dinner.
tim pool
Have you seen those viral videos where the morbidly obese women are like, here's my kid's dinner?
Oh, yeah.
And they take, like, they'll pour McDonald's french fries in a bowl, and then they'll open a thing of McDonald's nuggets, then they'll pour tomato sauce and cheese on top, and then they give it to their morbidly obese seven-year-old fat girl daughter who's, like, just shoveling it in her mouth.
libby emmons
That's awful.
tim pool
Yeah.
It's nasty.
And they got those mukbang videos or whatever they're called?
libby emmons
That's creepy.
tim pool
Yeah, dude.
Those are very creepy.
Humans are weird, man.
I don't know.
Should we ban all that stuff and just be like, nah, get out of here?
hannah claire brimelow
Do you think any of it is our cultural attitudes toward food?
I think in America there's a big, like, food is convenient and you just want to get it over with quickly and you don't want to have to put a lot of effort to it, whereas, like, let me grow up in an Italian family.
libby emmons
No, my stepmom was a cook.
hannah claire brimelow
My mom can't cook.
libby emmons
My stepmom was, like, a great cook and she always made, like, a proper dinner.
And then it was funny because my brother, my brother grew up with my mom and my mom, as I said, she can't cook.
And it's like a point of pride.
She's one of those feminists from the generation where she's like, I'm career oriented.
I can't cook.
You know, like that's part, that was like part of the thing.
And so my brother came over to my house one time when he was like, he was like 12 or maybe 14, something like that.
And he came to visit me and I made a proper dinner.
And he goes, Oh, To be a nutritious dinner, it needs at least three colors.
And I was like, yes, you need three colors, and then your dinner is fine.
Three colors will do it.
hannah claire brimelow
I think a lot of it does have to do with whether it's like cultural like because of your heritage or because of just your nuclear family's attitude towards food like if you are in a family that is sort of burdened by eating they're like we're just gonna eat out or we're gonna buy pre-packaged stuff it's much easier to become dependent on the super processed stuff and therefore it becomes very difficult to break away and be like well I'm going to prioritize it you know?
libby emmons
Yeah.
oli london
And in some cases, well, you know, you've got families that maybe don't have much money every month.
It's sometimes cheaper to get fast food, you know, go to McDonald's or Burger King.
Whereas if you're going to like a Whole Foods, you're buying organic vegetables, it is actually very expensive.
So for some families, it's a lot cheaper to get these microwave meals that are super unhealthy, but they're actually, I mean, if you actually start planning out your meals, it's way cheaper to just buy fresh food.
libby emmons
You know what I mean?
Like, you don't have to buy, if you don't buy all the organic stuff, if you buy like, you know, a bunch of broccoli, and you can do so much with like, if you buy a head of broccoli, don't just buy the crown, buy the whole thing and then you can use all of it.
You can use the stem in soup You gotta use every part of the broccoli.
Yeah, the broccoli is good.
tim pool
Say a little prayer for it after it goes.
libby emmons
Yeah, I like broccoli.
I make a lot of broccoli.

The first is that you'll get to hang out on our Members Only Uncensored show, where tonight at midnight, Carter I believe he'll be joining to premiere the new song, Coming Home, which is about the failure of politicians in our major cities and how our cities have crumbled and turned to dust.
And so it's a good song.
Phil Labonte and Carter helped write it.
And Phil's got guest vocals, so if you're a fan of All That Remains, then you'll want to check this one out as well.
But we're also suing Kamala Harris because she defamed me, rather, in an extreme way.
And these things are challenging, so if you support us in these endeavors, then please consider becoming a member at TimCast.com.
And as an aside, most of you probably won't care about this one, but we are suing the state of West Virginia to legalize poker.
They have a law that states you cannot put wagers down on card games, and you cannot host card games.
The only problem is, Every other card game except poker is legal for cash wagering and tournaments are otherwise, so it is inequality under the law.
I don't know, 14th Amendment argument, so we're going to sue them over that.
And this could have greater repercussions on the country as a whole if we actually do get a suit going about the state of social poker and not table game poker, because, you know, I'm talking about social poker with you and your friends.
If it does end up getting appealed and going federal, which I don't know that it would, but who knows, perhaps it could be that Social poker is legal nationwide.
And clubs can open up and people can choose to do that.
Maybe you don't like that idea.
I don't know.
The point is, there's a big difference between playing blackjack and table games, poker, and playing poker with your friends for 20 bucks, where you choose how you want to play and you want to watch a game.
And they made that all illegal.
Yet they have other card games.
Basically, literally every other card game is illegal.
So we're suing over that too.
That'll be coming soon.
libby emmons
That's pretty wild.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah.
So we'll be we'll be suing the state because they allow children to gamble with Pokemon cards and Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic the Gathering, but they don't allow adults to play a game of poker, which is insane.
libby emmons
Even just like penny poker.
tim pool
Nope, illegal.
Playing.
Okay, so in the state of West Virginia, if I buy a pack of playing cards from the grocery store, and we play crazy eights, illegal.
libby emmons
But what are you supposed to do with your pack of cards?
tim pool
So the argument is, well, culturally we've evolved, they just don't enforce it.
In West Virginia, cohabitation is illegal.
If you're a man and there's a woman and you are roommates, crime in West Virginia.
libby emmons
Interesting.
tim pool
They just don't enforce those laws.
So the problem now is the Lottery Commission is making bank off controlling poker rooms because they get taxes from it, the casinos get the rake.
The rake is a portion of every pot goes to the casino.
There's also something called time rake, where you pay every half an hour, every hour, seven bucks, something like that.
And, well, it depends on the game you're playing.
The state wants to make money off it.
So they don't like the idea, or I should say the Lottery Commission likes the idea that they can control it, even though they won't enforce the law in any other capacity.
So I'm just like, Okay dude, you better start enforcing anti-cohabitation or whatever, because otherwise we're gonna start- I'm not gonna sue them over that, that's ridiculous.
But the idea that they would ban only one game that they're seeking to profit off of, and let all the other games do whatever they want, I think that's ridiculous.
Anyway, Scooby Dragon says, howdy people!
Howdy Scoob!
Alright, what do we got?
Matthew Holloway says, Hey Tim, big fan.
I was able to convert one of my co-workers from a non-voter to a Trump voter by showing him the no tax and overtime policy.
Plus one in Maine.
LFG!
Keep up the good work.
Appreciate it.
That's how we do it.
All right.
The Emperor's Champions says, Apparently, there's some new study out that proves Florida in the water harms kids' development.
I think AP had the story.
This has been a fact for a long time.
Fluoride causes fluorosis of the teeth in children, which inhibits the development of the teeth, causing them to be brittle and spotty and discolored.
And it's because, look, as an adult, if you go to your adult teeth, a little bit of fluoride can help, you know, kill the bacteria and everything.
Right.
It's toxic, you know, and you spit it out.
I don't understand why they're putting it in our drinking water.
libby emmons
That seems like a bit much.
tim pool
Very weird.
It is in our drinking water.
libby emmons
Especially since dentists, when you're a kid, dentists like prescribe all these fluoride treatments anyway.
tim pool
I remember I had a friend, his sister had a baby, and she went to the grocery store and came back and she put a bunch of nursery water on the counter.
And it's a gallon of water, and it's got a picture of a baby on it, and it says, with added fluoride and a rainbow.
And I was like, why are you giving that to the baby?
And she's like, it's nursery water.
And I was like, it's got extra fluoride in it.
And she's like, yeah, it's because babies need it.
And I was like, no, they don't.
And then she was like, oh, please, like, I went to the grocery store to get nursery water, you know what you're talking about.
So I went to my friend's computer and I Google-searched fluoride babies.
Warnings.
Every single thing.
Do not give your baby fluoride.
And I was like, would you like to just read these things?
Because maybe I'm wrong.
And then she read them and she was like, what the?
Why?
You go to the grocery store and they have baby waters and nursery water and it's got extra fluoride added to it.
libby emmons
That's so weird.
tim pool
It causes brain damage.
libby emmons
I never saw that.
tim pool
Yeah.
Let me see if I can pull it up.
hannah claire brimelow
You're gonna Google it and it's like nursery water recalled too much fluoride.
I think there was a time when the government basically like Parents can't take care of their kids, so we've got to slip in what we think are vitamins or whatever else.
libby emmons
Just like they do in education.
Parents can't take care of their kids, so we better tell them they're trans.
hannah claire brimelow
They're not going to make sure their kids brush their teeth, so we'll add fluoride to the water, I guess.
tim pool
So, I'm going to preface this by saying I am not a doctor, and everything I'm saying is probably wrong, so consult a doctor, because I don't actually know anything about this.
What I can tell you is, here is a gallon that I Google-searched of nursery purified water with added fluoride.
And there's a picture of a baby on it.
Look, I'm a crazy crackpot.
Everything I said was wrong.
Fluoride water is great.
It's a great product.
Talk to your doctor about what's right for you.
hannah claire brimelow
Tonight's IRL brought to you by Big Fluoride.
libby emmons
Nursery water.
That is so weird.
hannah claire brimelow
See, to me, that's just like when you're having a baby, they start being like, and this is special for baby.
You know what I mean?
libby emmons
It's special poison for your baby.
hannah claire brimelow
It's just purified water.
You could just buy distilled water, yes.
libby emmons
Special poison water.
tim pool
The company also sells water without the fluoride in it.
libby emmons
That's crazy.
But why would it be called nursery?
Why not?
tim pool
They have two.
One with fluoride and one without.
Why are they... I don't understand why... What is their argument on their website?
They add fluoride to it.
Fluoride and your child.
Alright, here we go.
Let's see what they have to say.
Unclear about the benefits of drinking water with added fluoride, the American Dental Association supports the Department of Health and Human Services' recommendation to set the optimal level of fluoridated water at 0.7 parts per million.
Nursery water contains a fluoride level of up to 0.7.
For those that may be concerned about fluoride levels, nursery also provides a drinking water without added fluoride, ask your doctor.
Babies don't have teeth.
hannah claire brimelow
And this way they never will.
unidentified
What?
tim pool
No, no, hold on there.
Their website says the Dental Association supports flooding the water.
It doesn't actually explain why they're doing it, and babies don't have teeth.
libby emmons
Right.
But they don't have to explain, Tim, because they have appealed to the experts, and we need to trust the experts.
Trust the experts.
tim pool
So wild.
OK, you know what?
I'm going to trust the expert.
I'm going to ask that dang old robot, why is there chloride in baby water?
libby emmons
You're going to trust the expert robot.
tim pool
Trust the experts.
libby emmons
Trust the robots.
Eat the bugs.
Go home.
Never come out again.
tim pool
I swear to God.
It says Florida's added to baby water to prevent tooth decay.
I'm not kidding.
It literally says this.
This is wild.
It strengthens enamel and making it more resistant to cavities, but it's important to use Florida in moderation.
Babies don't have teeth!
I mean, the babies they're showing, it's like, well, they're going to have teeth in a year or two.
Is that the point?
hannah claire brimelow
They start getting teeth in, like, what?
libby emmons
I don't know, but dentists give you fluoride treatments.
I know because my dad was obsessed.
tim pool
That's different.
libby emmons
Right.
And that's what I'm saying.
tim pool
When you have full teeth.
libby emmons
That's all you need.
Like, you don't need fluoride in your water when you're a baby because eventually, like, go to the dentist and you'll get... I mean, I think that was part of it, too.
Like, maybe fluoride in the water was America's answer to not having socialized dentistry.
hannah claire brimelow
Is the UK obsessed with fluoride?
oli london
Um, I think they put it in the tap water.
Yeah, but people don't really think about it so much.
But, you know, it's because they add things to everything, don't they?
So people don't think.
But I don't think it's... I've never heard of the nursery water, though.
I haven't seen that on the stores.
So I guess... Well, I'm not a doctor.
No, but in the UK... I'm completely wrong.
I've not seen that specifically.
So I guess it's an America thing, you know, marketing to Well, look, I'm going to say it again.
tim pool
I'm not a doctor.
I am completely wrong about all of this.
You guys should actually consult a doctor.
I mean it seriously.
I'll be a little bit silly, but actually talk to a doctor.
ChadGBT says, some studies have suggested a potential link between high levels of fluoride
exposure and lower IQ in children.
However, these studies generally focus on areas with much higher fluoride concentrations
than those typically found in drinking water in places like the U.S.
where levels are regulated.
The overall consensus in the scientific and medical communities is that when fluoride is used at recommended levels, it is safe and effective for preventing tooth decay without significant risk to IQ or other developmental issues.
Then why do I have to drink it?
I can put it in my toothpaste.
I got no problem with that.
I will brush my teeth and then I will spit out the toothpaste.
libby emmons
Yes, that is a better scenario.
tim pool
But hey, like I said, I'm just some crazy guy and you better talk to a doctor because what do I know, huh?
All right.
Hardcase says, Logan Sport, Indiana, my hometown of 20,000 people.
Thousands of Haitians have been coming in, running to brothels, stealing bikes, horrible driving.
Hit and runs are common.
I've seen it happen.
23-year-old men in freshman high school class.
Cops allow it all.
Well, back to Blue, baby.
libby emmons
What town was that?
tim pool
Logan Sport, Indiana.
Let's investigate.
It just so happens that Libby has a crack team of journalists who can get to the bottom of anything.
Red Dragon Emperor says, I don't believe Iran is behind the hacking of the Trump campaign.
It benefits Kamala Harris just in time for the VP debate.
With how hard the deep state is trying to get rid of Trump, I have almost no doubt the CIA would do this.
I don't know.
I mean, I think it's a valid opinion.
I also think it's possible Iran does want to sow chaos and discord because a civil war in the United States is good for them.
You know?
Good for them.
Bad for us.
Good for the bad guys.
What do we have here?
What do we have here?
libby emmons
Oh, apparently the Longsport mayor told the feds to get off their asses.
tim pool
Is it Longsport or is it Logansport?
libby emmons
Logansport.
I just said it wrong.
tim pool
Oh, okay.
unidentified
Wow.
hannah claire brimelow
Is the VP debate next week?
When is it?
libby emmons
It's on the 10th?
tim pool
Really?
unidentified
That'll be fun.
hannah claire brimelow
It's coming up, right?
tim pool
All right.
Corey Rustick says, Hey, Tim Kass, please wish my brother, Ryan O'Neill, a happy birthday.
He's diving into independent media with his fantasy book, Dark Tidings.
It's woke free, so please help support the parallel economy and check it out.
It would make his birthday big fan.
Shout out, Ryan O'Neill, man.
Best of luck with your book, Dark Tidings.
And people if you want to support independent and anti-woke content or just how about generally just not woke content.
There you go.
That's how you do it.
Polly Pierret says Tim should get Eric Adams on the show.
Indeed.
Can he leave the state?
hannah claire brimelow
I don't think he can while he's indicted.
tim pool
Well, it's federal indictment though, huh?
libby emmons
It's a federal indictment.
hannah claire brimelow
Perhaps he can.
libby emmons
And maybe we'll see that mugshot tomorrow.
hannah claire brimelow
Do you think he'll release merch with the mugshot on it?
libby emmons
I, you know, I think he might pull a Trump on this one.
Yeah.
tim pool
Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
says, Tim, a reminder, episode 700 for Pop Culture Crisis tomorrow, 1 to 5pm.
And I do believe it will be here in the IRL studio.
It's not?
We can't do it?
They changed it.
Oh, okay.
Well, never mind.
They're going to be at their main HQ then.
Because we were hoping if they did it here, we could all come in and hang out for the special 700th episode.
Pop Culture Crisis.
Look at these guys.
They're killing it over there.
We're going to be launching an ad campaign for them in a couple days, actually.
Because the show is getting too big.
It's too big.
Everyone's got to know how good Pop Culture Crisis is.
Brett Dasovic and Mary Morgan, excellent hosts over there.
If you care about celebrities and video games and movies and culture, and you like it when money guns shoot dollar bills in the air.
libby emmons
It's fun.
I've done that show a couple times.
tim pool
When was it every $100 in Super Chats, the money guns just go spraying money at everybody.
libby emmons
It's fun.
tim pool
And then Brett has to clean it all up.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Silly.
And then we have Inverted World 2, Tales from the Inverted World, Sundays at 6.
Tomorrow morning, Shane Cashman and I will be talking with a mob guy.
libby emmons
Nice.
tim pool
Because I am convinced that we are better off under the Mafia than what we have now.
I think we're better off under sound policing and legitimate governance than the Mafia, but I'm just saying, based on what we're seeing in these city streets, most people would probably ask for the Mafia back.
But they ain't getting it.
Not the way it used to be.
unidentified
All right.
tim pool
Hardway learnt says, we bought land to raise our four kids, dogs, chickens, and a rich neighbor stole 357 valuable trees, then laughed in our faces, had good luck suing.
Raising funds to continue the fight.
Thanks, give, send, go.
Hardway learn trees.
Hardway learnt trees?
He stole your trees?
How do you steal trees?
He dug them up and ran off with them?
libby emmons
Or if you haven't planted them yet.
tim pool
Oh, I see.
If they were, like, in the thing ready to go.
libby emmons
They were, like, ready to go from the nursery.
Not the nursery water, the nursery garden center.
tim pool
The other thing, too, is we sold out of all of our Boonies boards, except I think Taylor still has, like, one or two left.
So, uh, let's see what we got going on.
This is great!
Uh, BooniesHQ.com officially launched, and all the boards are sold out!
We tried restocking Step on Snack, and, uh...
Sold out right away.
Taylor has a couple left.
What does she have left?
Oh, she's got like one board left.
So if you want to grab Taylor Silverman's, if you want to support female athletes who stand up against men and women's sports, that's Taylor, because that's, she did that.
She was into several skate contests.
She lost to male skaters, spoke up about it.
And there you go.
And then the boobies.
This is like the best board ever.
Look at that.
libby emmons
I like that.
tim pool
Isn't that great?
It's a blue footed boobie.
unidentified
That's the bird.
libby emmons
Terrific.
tim pool
The boobies.
That's Sam's board.
And so we're getting those printed up.
We're really excited.
Those are fun.
Let's grab some more.
libby emmons
They're all sold out.
tim pool
That's right.
Everything's sold out.
Because that's kind of wild.
They bought all the skateboards from us.
That's based.
You guys, it is very based that you bought all our skateboards at boonieshq.com.
libby emmons
Yeah, that's very cool.
tim pool
What have we here?
Let's try and find one of these super chats.
They always disappear on me.
You know, there'll be like a specific super chat and I'm like, we'll get to that when we get to it.
And it's just gone.
It's just disappeared.
Randy Maveth says, RFK Jr.
on Peterson Today said Trump told him that he knew he put wrong people in because they were scrambling since they didn't expect to win.
Wow.
And Bitcoin is up.
Is Bitcoin up?
Let's take a look at our good friend Bitcoin and see what Bitcoin's doing.
Mr. Bitcoin, what are you currently at?
Bitcoin is at $63,000.
Indeed!
That is very good news for all the Bitcoin people.
Brian Griffiths says, you guys keep referencing internal polls being horrible.
Why would internal polls be different than public polls?
I don't understand the difference.
Public polls are news organizations that are trying to figure things out.
Internal polls are the actual political consultant multi-billion dollar corporations trying to win.
So they genuinely, like, they believe they're doing it the right way.
A lot of polls in the public sphere are for influence operations as well.
A company like Republicans might hire a company to do a poll where the pollster is going to make a poll that shows Republicans winning so they can then say, look at our poll showing that we're winning because they want people to believe they're going to win.
There was several studies in, I think, a while ago that people will vote for whoever they think is going to win.
If you show someone like, here's two candidates and here's their polls, people tend to just go like, yeah, I'll vote for the guy who's winning because people want to fit in.
That's one reason that they do it.
VetOneGamer says, young voters don't like the current admin, including the VP.
I paid $995 today for my car insurance.
We're suffering out here.

That's crazy.
Stadia Dispatch says, the Harris-Waltz campaign is so desperate, they're allegedly offering people $200 to be voting ambassadors in Arizona.
Also, I bet the media pool will be closed at Kamala's Borders Are Event tomorrow.
Yup.
Indeed.
Oh, our good friend Real Hydro is here.
He says, Tim, why are you so cliché and lie?
You know you don't shop for anything.
IDK why you can't embrace being rich and not pretend.
We love you, Hydro.
We appreciate all the money you send us, but I do go shopping for my own groceries.
I go to FoodLine.
You like FoodLine?
Well, the FoodLine's our grocery store.
I don't know.
Where else would I go?
libby emmons
I don't know.
tim pool
There's no other grocery store over here.
unidentified
I don't know.
libby emmons
There's like five grocery stores near me.
Yeah.
And they're all different.
tim pool
Well, there's... Oh, right, right, right.
What is there?
libby emmons
There's, um... There's Weiss, Martin.
tim pool
Oh yeah, there's Weiss.
libby emmons
And Food Lion.
There is Food Lion.
tim pool
Oh yeah, there's Martin's too.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah.
tim pool
Oh yeah, you got a bunch by you.
Over here, it's like we just got food.
libby emmons
There's also Walmart.
tim pool
Actually, maybe I just only know of the Food Lion.
libby emmons
Oh, and then there's the Save-a-Lot.
tim pool
Jeez, what?
libby emmons
So that's five.
That's five markets right near me.
I was right.
tim pool
You're not that far from us.
Oh, okay.
There is a...
Like if there's an Aldi and a Weiss.
libby emmons
Oh yeah, there's an Aldi, that's six.
tim pool
In Martinsburg.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
But, oh yeah, Aldi, right by you.
Yeah, you got an Aldi too.
But for me, it makes no sense to go anywhere other than Food Lion.
There's a Martin's, but it's twice the distance of Food Lion.
And Weiss is three times the distance.
So I just go to Food Lion.
They have this coconut milk.
I always, you know, so I have... The Weiss has the ricotta cheese I like, so.
That's very good.
So, uh, I go to Food Lion and I get cottage cheese from, I always get daisy, because the ingredients are like skim milk, cream, salt.
libby emmons
I always get the daisy sour cream.
tim pool
Right, because the ingredients are cream.
I don't want any of that weird garbage.
You look at the other companies and it's got weird gellin gum and artificial emulsifier or whatever crap in it.
libby emmons
It took me a while to get used to the grocery stores around here, but now I'm very satisfied with my groceries, other than they cost a lot.
unidentified
So I have a... That's true everywhere, yeah.
tim pool
I have the Sleep8 bed Luke convinced me to buy, and that's where it can heat and cool while you're sleeping.
libby emmons
Oh, that seems kind of good.
tim pool
Yeah, because if you get too hot, you'll wake up.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
And you'll be sweaty, right?
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Done.
Never happened again.
So if you start getting too hot, the bed cools down.
libby emmons
Wait, what's it called?
tim pool
Sleep8.
We're not sponsored by them.
But Luke told me to get it, and they have a mattress topper and a mattress.
I got the mattress.
And it also tracks your health, your heart rate variability, your heart rate and all that stuff.
I bought coconut milk, which is basically just it's the coconut meat in the water and it's pureed up.
The ingredients are literally just coconut water and coconut.
And I started doing a protein shake, the Jocko Milk Powder.
One scoop with coconut milk before bed.
And since then, all of my health metrics have been like maxed out every night.
libby emmons
Wow, that's cool.
tim pool
Yeah, it could be a combination of hydration, good protein, and I don't know, coconut fat, like literally hits the nail on the head.
So now I just do that every time before bed and then I wake up in the morning and my phone is like, you're doing great buddy!
And I'm like, thanks phone!
libby emmons
Thanks phone.
Yeah, I haven't figured out how to track myself in my sleep and I think that's probably for the best.
tim pool
This watch does it too, but the bed seems to have a more consistent, stable... This watch always tells me that I'm like... Do you wear a watch while you sleep?
You're supposed to, yeah.
It tracks your health.
libby emmons
But it's so uncomfy.
I don't know.
tim pool
I haven't noticed.
You wear it while you sleep and then it tracks all of your health metrics.
But the weirdest thing is it's always yelling at me saying, do not exercise.
And I'm like, I exercised once this week.
Why wouldn't I exercise again?
I can do it like three or four times a week.
libby emmons
Yeah, it's a good thing I don't have a watch like that, because I exercise every day.
And if it started telling me not to, I'd be like, oh, OK.
tim pool
It's because I do an hour of VO2 max while I skate.
And so my heart rate's at like 185, and I'm 38.
And it's just like, you need to stop or you're going to die.
And I'm like, dude, I'm skating.
Like, when I'm skateboarding, I'm not sitting there being like, my heart rate's so high, I better stop skating.
I'm like, I'm just skating.
libby emmons
I don't know.
tim pool
And then it says your heart rate is too high for how old you are.
And I was like, maybe I'm just, you know.
libby emmons
Or maybe you're actually a healthy person.
tim pool
Yeah, my resting heart rate's usually in the low 40s, and people... I have no idea what mine... I have no idea.
There was a trend for a little while where a bunch of dudes were posting their resting heart rates, and it was like everyone was responding to each other, and I think they should.
And I'm gonna... Guess what, guys?
Y'all listening?
I'm gonna brag that... I'm gonna take a look right now, and I'll tell you exactly what it says.
My resting heart rate last night.
Pull up the app there, and, uh, I don't care about that.
You can go away.
And I'll hit this.

Wednesday, it's not telling me.
Oh, Wednesday was 43.
Wednesday was 43.
47 on Tuesday.
See, that's not so good for me.
43 on Monday and 43 on Sunday.
And the reason I'm saying that is because I want you all to strive for that.
And I think everybody should brag about their health and post their, when they run 10 miles, they should post their watch and they should post the screenshot from their phone and they should say, I did this and everyone should cheer for them and everyone should be doing it too.
libby emmons
Speaking of cheering, have you seen Lizzo?
She looks amazing.
tim pool
Absolutely based.
Lizzo, you're great.
libby emmons
She looks spectacular.
tim pool
I am so, so happy to see that.
Lizzo, that is really, really cool.
I am now a Lizzo fan.
libby emmons
I liked her ever since she played James Madison's flute.
tim pool
And I didn't.
hannah claire brimelow
It's funny, because a lot of people hated that.
libby emmons
A lot of people hated that, but I was like... It had never been played before.
Right, but she's a good flautist, or whatever, and I thought it was cool.
tim pool
But good for losing weight.

She played James Madison's flute.
I just thought it was cool.

All right, we got Beyond Right.
He says, South Texas fuel hauler here, heading to Florida for hurricane relief loads, and the show does a good job keeping me awake.
Awesome.
libby emmons
Nice.
tim pool
Also, there are a ton of Haitians in sand hauling.
When asked why, they just say they knew a friend in it.
Well, that is very based of you, sir, to help with the hurricane relief in Florida.
That's super cool.
Appreciate it.
libby emmons
Be careful you don't get caught by Kamala Harris claiming you're price gouging when really what you're doing is providing supply for a demand.

The Glitched NPC says, Hurricane Michael 2018 was a Category 5 and leveled Mexico Beach in the panhandle.
Also, down with the self-checkout.
Force the companies to open their registers by going to a cashier.
Be pro-human and support your fellow man.
libby emmons
Yeah, I try and do that.
There's some stores, though, they don't even have any cashiers.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah, especially at certain times of night, they'll be like, all of the cashier assistant lanes are closed, you have to use self-checkout.
libby emmons
What's really bad is in some stores, when everything is locked up, and there's no one in the store, there's no one there, and you can't buy anything.
oli london
New York is the worst.
CVS, you go in there, even the toothpaste is locked up, and then you can't find an assistant.
tim pool
But where, what do you mean?
unidentified
Not out here.
libby emmons
New York.
tim pool
Oh yeah, New York, oh geez, of course.
oli london
Los Angeles is, you can't get anywhere else.
tim pool
No, no, no, guys, you don't understand.
Out here, We went to, uh, where were we?
We were, uh, about an hour, two hours west, and there was a, there's a shed, and you walk up and open the door, and you take, there's nobody there, you take whatever you want, and then you pull out the cash, and you put it in a box, and you leave.
libby emmons
Yeah, that's, that's, that's how things should be.
tim pool
Yeah.
libby emmons
That's how, uh, I like things like that.
tim pool
That's how it, that's how it is when you live out in the country.
libby emmons
Like a little farm stand.
Yeah.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
tim pool
You walk in, they have everything, and you could put on a mask and take whatever you wanted, but nobody does.
libby emmons
Yeah.
Well, I always just steal a bunch of your eggs.
tim pool
That's not stealing, though.
libby emmons
That's a perk.
I take them, yeah.
I very much like taking eggs.
tim pool
Dude, we get like three dozen a day.
libby emmons
Well, I usually take two dozen at a time.
Okay.
tim pool
Well, I mean, save some for the rest of us.
unidentified
It's a perk.
tim pool
We do have a lot of chickens.
Fresh eggs right off the butt.
You just don't rinse them off, right?
libby emmons
You have to wash them, yeah.
tim pool
No.
You wash them before you eat them.
libby emmons
Yeah, they have dirt on them.
tim pool
Yes, but you don't wash them until you're about to eat them.
libby emmons
Yeah, that's when I wash them.
tim pool
Right, okay.
I'm saying you don't, you don't take the eggs in the carton.
libby emmons
I take them out of the carton and wash them and then cook them.
tim pool
Right.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Because we've had people here take the eggs that were brought over and then they wash them all and it's like, well, you better eat them now because... You've just washed off all the good part.
All the bloom.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
That keeps them from spoiling.
But you can put them in the fridge.
They're good for a couple weeks if you, if you, uh, after you wash them.
Golden Fleece Game says, me and my dad talked about what Trump might do if elected, but my dad brought up a worrisome thing.
What happens between the election and inauguration if Trump is elected?
Indeed.
libby emmons
That is a good question.
hannah claire brimelow
Especially if they won't release the numbers for like two days, a week.
I think that'll heighten a lot of tension that's already kind of simmering at our surface.
tim pool
I am very worried.
But, you know, what can you do other than just do the work and hope you win?
So, my friends, smash that like button, subscribe.
It's fall.
You know what really bothers me?
The day it turned fall, it started raining, it was cloudy, and it's cold.
And I'm like, why is it 85 degrees every single day and just...
Like, just hot as hot can be.
Super humid.
And then it's like, uh, tomorrow's fall.
And I'm like, what does that mean?
The next day it's raining and it's cloudy.
And I was like, that's what it means.
We live in a simulation.
