The Trump DOJ has indicted James Comey for obstruction and lying to Congress.
Oh boy, here we go.
Now, apparently, there was some other attorney who wasn't going to do it for some reason, said either the case wasn't strong enough, didn't want to.
So Trump said, get him out of there, get somebody else.
And now it is getting done.
They had only five days left until these statute of limitations was up.
So it looks like Trump is getting just what he wants.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a massive escalation at the political level.
Trump and his team, and for other reasons, all of you, better beg, hope, and pray that the Republicans win the midterms and that J.D. Vance wins in 2028 because they went after Trump.
Trump, of course, is going to get back at those who violated the law.
But if these people ever get near the seat of power again, the gloves are off.
And I thought they already were off.
But it is going to be nuts.
We also have other escalation at the physical level.
New information pertaining to the anti-ICE leftist terrorist.
He was planning this for a long time.
He had been researching ICE tracker apps using them and apparently had searched for Charlie Kirk assassination videos.
And the inking on the cartridges may have been him copying what the Charlie Kirk alleged assassin was doing.
So, wow.
Daily Beast is actually now writing about Trump warning of civil war.
And that surprises me because here's the left coming out and basically saying it's coming.
But to be honest, go to Blue Sky.
Just seriously go to Blue Sky or threads and read what these people are saying.
And yeah.
Yeah.
There is a serious escalation.
Aside from all of that, I guess World War III again.
I don't know how many times you need to say it, so it's probably not worth saying, but Russia has basically stated that NATO is at war with them and emergency meetings are happening.
Russian jets violating U.S. airspace.
Holy crap.
So must I say to all of you, may you live in uninteresting times.
Holy crap.
Now, before we get started, my friends, we got a great sponsor.
We got crypto.com.
Believe it or not.
Let's be clear, my friends.
Crypto is not emerging.
Crypto is here.
Everybody knows it.
The latest move cements that reality in a big way.
Trump Media just inked a massive $6.4 billion deal with Yorkville Acquisition Corp and crypto.com, the crypto platform trusted by millions of users worldwide.
They're teaming up to scoop up $6.4 billion in CRO, the powerhouse token that fuels fast, low-fee, DeFi staking rewards and real-world perks like cashback on your spends to establish America's first CRO treasury, Trump Media Group CRO strategy.
When it's done, this new company will be the biggest publicly traded CRO holder out there.
If you want to head over to crypto.com today and y'all can make crypto great again.
Although I think it's fair to say it currently is great and has been for quite some time.
For more information on the proposed business combination, check out Yorkville Acquisition Corps public filings.
Make sure you go to crypto.com.
Just investment, all investments have risks.
You guys got to make the decision for yourself and you are responsible for any decisions that you make.
But learn more, crypto.com and shout out thanks for sponsoring the show.
We also have Beam Dream.
Oh man, look at this one.
This one's cherry, iced berry cherry.
I am such a massive fan of Beam Dream.
I drink it every single night and my sleep has never been better.
So my friends, we are all constantly pulled in 100 different directions between news, politics, work, family, me, sleep.
I thought I was doing pretty well.
I didn't realize I could do better.
In fact, when I skate and exercise, I would get bad cramps at night.
And it turns out my magnesium was probably the issue.
So Beam Dream has got Lfenine.
It's got melatonin.
It's got magnesium.
So you sleep better.
Now this, we got listed right here on the web.
This is iced cherry berry.
That is amazing.
I usually go for the hot cocoa one.
Look at that.
Cinnamon cocoa is the one I usually go for.
But don't forget, they got iced cherry berry as well.
It's 15 calories, zero added sugar.
It's already improved over 18 million nights of sleep, including mine.
Last night my sleep score was 95.
I know it was bad because it was 96 before that and 100 before that.
But no, I'm still doing pretty well.
And I really do love this stuff.
So go to shopbeam.com slash Tim Poole, and you will get up to 35% off.
And don't forget, my friends, smash that like button.
Share the show with everyone you know joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more.
We got Joseph Moulton.
joseph moulton
Hi.
Yeah, I'm Joseph, founder of Flagfolks UK.
I'm just joining Tim tonight.
Just got what's going on and also mention a little bit what's going on in the UK as well.
unidentified
Right on.
tim pool
Well, thanks for hanging out.
We got Tate hanging out.
tate brown
What's going on, guys?
Tate Brown here holding it down.
Before I start, Pastor Vodi Bockham died about an hour ago.
I know a lot of people in the audience will know who that is.
Just want to say rest in peace.
He was very loved.
So, yeah.
tim pool
Sad to hear.
raymond g stanley-jr
What's up, friends?
It's Raymond G, your favorite blue collar here at Timcast Media Group.
I look forward to talking to Joseph and everyone else.
Mr. Phil.
phil labonte
Hello, everybody.
My name is Phil Labonte.
I'm the lead senior to Heavy Metal and All That Remains.
I'm an anti-communist and counter-revolutionary.
Let's get into it.
tim pool
Here's ABC news because you know we love them.
Former FBI director James Comey indicted days after Trump demanded his DOJ move now to prosecute enemies.
Prosecutors earlier said they couldn't establish probable cause to charge Comey, which is a lie because we've got this post from Greg Price, which is hilarious.
On the left, James Comey telling Congress in September of 2020 that the steel dossier wasn't used in the 2016 intelligence community assessment on the Russia Oaks.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
Tulsi Gabbard's release from July showing the steel dossier was directly cited and that Obama Intel officials overruled senior Intel officials who told them it was garbage.
Now, I believe he's being indicted on obstruction as well.
Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted on two of three counts sought by prosecutors.
One count of making false statements and one count of obstruction of justice just days after President Donald Trump issued a public demand for his DOJ to act now to bring prosecutions against Comey and other political foes.
The charges follow Trump's ousting of U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Eric Siebert, who, according to source said, expressed doubts internally about bringing cases against Comey, as well as New York Attorney General Letitia James, after Trump appointed him to lead the office.
I would just like to point out where we are in this country.
They went after Donald Trump on fake charges.
Trump says, okay, if that's the standard, we go after them as well.
It's remarkable to me that under the Biden administration and in New York, they said, well, these are highly dubious, but let's bring them anyway.
And then under Trump, the attorneys are like, well, we can't really do it enough.
The standard was set by the Democrats.
Trump is saying, hey, look, you want to come after me citing mortgage fraud or civil fraud for loans because an officer made a mistake on some numbers?
He's going to go after Letitia James when she claimed a property outside of New York was her primary residence, which gave her favorable loan terms.
I think the same thing is true for Adam Schiff, but we'll see what happens there.
And now you have James Comey.
James Comey said they didn't use the steel dossier.
Tulsi Gabbard says we went through that.
Here we go.
Here's an IC report showing they did.
What's the problem?
What's the problem?
Let me say this, though.
I will say this of myself and pretty much anybody who's prominent in this space.
Y'all better pray Trump doesn't lose this fight because we've already seen what they're willing to do to their media adversaries.
We've seen what the left and the Democrats have been willing to do to run-of-the-mill Trump supporters who bounced around on January 6th.
I ain't talking about the rioters.
I'm talking about the people who are milling about after the riot was over, who also got a year plus in jail or solitary.
Going after James Comey, this is not a shot across the bow.
The Democrats already ignited the flames and Trump is simply responding.
So it is now on.
At the highest level of politics, Trump has told the deep state, you are going down.
At the street level, we are dealing with three terror attacks in three weeks.
So you guys tell me what's happening in this country.
phil labonte
I mean, look, as far as the situation with Comey, it's good that they're indicting him.
It's good that a grand jury decided that they had enough evidence to prosecute.
It's good that they've actually moved on this, didn't let the statue of limitations run out.
But I see this online, like people tweeting at like Cash Patel and people tweeting at Republican lawmakers saying, hey, make the leftists stop killing us.
Like that's where we're at.
So it's great that they put Comey in or that they're going to, that they're going to end there, that Comey's indicted and they're going to prosecute.
That's all well and good.
But we've actually gone past the need for that.
tim pool
I got to interject.
If we do not see justice on the highest level of these people, the street level stuff is immaterial.
This is the most important thing.
Look, obviously, street-level law enforcement needs to stop far-left terror and anti-fun all that.
Because another thing, we got a lot of news.
Trump has ordered his DOJ to go after all of these leftists and all the structures.
Ground level is important.
But if Comey, Clinton, and their ilk are able to gain power again, I have zero concern whatsoever for anti-footfield.
You'll be in a gulag.
Just make sure you share with me your sandwich at lunchtime.
phil labonte
It doesn't matter.
The thing is, it doesn't matter if they put Comey away because this is, it doesn't matter if it's Comey or who the individuals are, because there are other people that will be pursuing those places in the administration.
There's going to be a Democrat that's going to be running.
There's going to be people in the bureaucracy that will want to, or there will be people on the Democrat side that will fill the roles and they're going to act the same.
tim pool
You don't need to wipe out every single soldier on the enemy's battlefield if you shatter their center and the rest of them flee.
If Trump can get these, if simply these indictments and these charges against Comey, Letitia James, potentially Schiff, anybody else, if that breaks their ranks, those people you're describing are going to run for the Hills.
They'll find them.
So, oh, what's that?
They're already getting citizenship in foreign countries.
Italy, I hear.
phil labonte
I mean, well, look, it would be great if they fled the country, obviously.
But I do think that on the I think the ground level is the thing that's that's more immediate.
Like the idea.
tim pool
But you can do both.
phil labonte
Why not?
Again, I'm not saying, like I said, it's good that they got him.
It's good that they've indicted him.
And I want to see more.
I'm not saying that it's not, you know, it shouldn't happen or whatever.
I'm saying it's.
tim pool
You arrest these people and the ground stuff disappears.
phil labonte
I don't know that I agree with that.
tim pool
I think so.
They'll lose all their funding and all their legal support.
Right now, with the infrastructures of power in place, these people might actually get off on the charges.
phil labonte
Well, I mean, the dude that, you know, initially, that just most recently shot up the ICE facility, he took care of it himself.
And that's something that actually happens fairly regularly.
Like they'll go and it'll be suicide by cop or they'll commit suicide themselves.
You look at all the trans shooters that have gone to schools and stuff.
There's not all of them, obviously, but a lot of them get taken care of on, you know, when they're carrying out the attack.
tim pool
I think if Jimmy Kimmel's off the air, if the Democrats that waged lawfare against Trump are in prison, and what remains are the squishy, middle-of-the-road soft Democrats who are be like, I'm not going to support any of that stuff, you will stop this cultural movement on the ground level.
Their infrastructure that pays them to, that gives them resources to be on the ground, that bails them out of jail will evaporate overnight.
The way I look at it is you've got an infestation, and all you're doing is chasing the bugs that you can see instead of going into the walls and finding the hive.
So, of course, if we had a wasp's nest in the building and they were flying around, we'd be swatting the wasps to get rid of them when we see them.
But we'd also call an exterminator to go in the walls, figure out the nest is, and get the nest torn out.
This is substantially more important in my opinion.
Getting rid of the individual actors will stop the individual actor at the time, but how do you stop them from reproducing?
And it's moves like this.
tate brown
I totally, well, I mean, this is probably the biggest test, one of the biggest tests of the DOJ so far because, I mean, this was a buzzer beater, right?
Like the Statute of Limitations, September 30th.
That's when Comey last testified, September 30th, 2020.
And it's like to prove that he didn't have any knowledge of the statement, to prove like perjury in this case, it's a really high bar.
That's why this is a buzzer beater in this case is because they needed to build this case to the best of their abilities.
And so this is like because these things matter.
These things are, like Tim is saying, you're cutting the head of the snake.
tim pool
I think the issue is that if Trump got in on day one and said, go arrest Comey, he'd be like, I ain't doing it.
And that's literally what we saw.
They're going to be like, this is crazy.
You're asking me to go to war with the deep state right now.
And, you know, I talked to Seb Gork a couple months ago and I asked him, has the deep state lost?
Have we won?
He says, no.
The deep state is still very much there and we are battling with them.
So right now, with this move against Comey, you know powerful, prominent uniparty elite establishment, international elements are saying Trump wants war, he'll get war.
And I'm talking about lawfare, legal actions.
If Trump can just go now, and it's fascinating because what did we hear?
Was it going to be end of summer?
We're going to start seeing these arrests.
I think you can send them packing.
You know, now there's rumors that he might, he's looking into criminal activity of the Soros, his foundations, open society and things like that.
And they're going to get it.
They're going to get it.
joseph moulton
Is that not really where they need to be targeting, though, these funding bases?
There's always going to be another James Comey who's going to step into the role.
That lobby and that media empire is so big.
There's so much power that comes along into it.
I'm sure it's not going to be super difficult to let someone also kind of, they can cultivate another individual like those financial bases and that sort of media base is really what he probably needs to hit to kind of provide that sort of long-term longevity that's going to allow them to win in the by-elections, but also when it gets to 2028 as well.
tim pool
My argument to your question, wouldn't that just be another Comey?
The answer is no.
joseph moulton
You think so?
tim pool
Yeah, if Trump says, go to war with me and I'll destroy your life and you'll regret it, people are going to say, I ain't going to war with Trump.
And that's what I'm talking about.
They tried to play that game, but the problem is Democrats have always been fairly weak.
And let me clarify or qualify that statement.
They're willing to go insane.
They are willing to send people on the ground.
But as people, the only fear generated by the Democratic Party is the system itself, which they inherit, not which they've built.
Trump's a lunatic.
Trump is the guy that people actually think he might press the button.
You know, he had that famous phone call where he told Putin and Xi, he told Xi, if you invade Taiwan and Putin, if you invade, what did he say, Kiev, Ukraine, I'm going to nuke you.
And he was like, I don't know if they believed me, maybe 5%.
And everyone's kind of like, you know, when Trump says it, you pause for a second.
Because when Obama says it, no one actually believes it.
joseph moulton
Is that not just that sort of Nixonite mad dog sort of mentality that Nixon's crazy, he's unpredictable.
And like, you know, obviously they went after Nixon again with the lawfare type thing.
tim pool
I don't think Nixon's got it.
I don't think Nin's got anything on Trump.
joseph moulton
No.
tim pool
Trump put out a public statement saying, Pam, go arrest my enemies now.
And so what I think he's hoping for, that was a shot across the bow.
I think he's hoping the next in line for a position like Comey, which wouldn't even come unless they win in 2028, is saying like, dude, best be a fisherman than meddle in the politics of man.
That's what Trump is hoping for right now.
There's no guarantees it happens.
That's why I'm saying if Trump loses, it's war.
Trump needs to make sure he puts the fear of God in these people, I should say, of the federal law enforcement apparatus and makes them regret it.
They did it to him.
And they lost.
And now I say lock them up.
raymond g stanley-jr
Trump's getting old, though.
I mean, like you're talking about going to warfare with Trump.
He's going to be, no offense to Trump, but he's getting older in age.
So if they go after him, say he does retaliation against Comey, good.
And Miss LaTeX James, that's cool.
But when he gets out of office, who are they going to fight?
Who's going to get in Trump's place to fight against them?
You really think so?
tim pool
Yeah, Vance is going on X calling people dip itched.
I'm not going to swear.
Right.
You know, but I saw that and I said, that's what I voted for.
phil labonte
Is it your opinion that there is no one?
raymond g stanley-jr
No, I'd not.
Well, Vance would be my only guess as of right now, but I don't think I don't think there's any Trump out there today.
tim pool
The Trump side has an amazing bench and the Democrats have none.
unidentified
Yeah.
tate brown
Well, also, that's why this is important because you have to make an example out of Comey, like Tim was saying, for any future FBI director, make an example out of Letitia James.
Like, this lawfare crap is not going to slide.
So, whoever that is, it doesn't really matter.
Whoever it is that replaces Trump, Trump's giving that person breathing room now.
They're not going to have the boot on their neck of whatever, you know, God forbid, a Democrat administration comes back in and they appoint all these chowderheads.
He can give us a little breathing room if he sets the example here and says it done.
tim pool
I feel bad for you, Tate, because like if a new Democrat administration gets in, I'll be 42, 43.
I had a good life, went on adventures.
How old do you take?
24.
unidentified
24.
tim pool
24, man.
Being in a gulag at 20, 26, 27, all the best years taken away.
unidentified
Oof.
raymond g stanley-jr
But you're right.
It gives other people room down the road.
You're going to say about it.
tim pool
Look at Phil rocking out rock star stage, platinum records.
tate brown
And then he doesn't got to worry about the gulag till these AOC puts me in the quirked up white boy camp.
It's going to be terrible.
phil labonte
Oh, I'm not looking forward to it.
You're going to be in AOC's harem.
Oh, she likes those white guys.
Those red-headed white guys.
He does like the red-headed white boy.
raymond g stanley-jr
You got to wear sandals too.
tate brown
You know, I'm not going to disavow.
raymond g stanley-jr
But yeah, that's good.
tim pool
You're right.
raymond g stanley-jr
If he does, if it does get through and he prosecutes these people, that gives people down the road a leeway, an open path to go and say, okay, we're going to prosecute you.
You want to go against us.
tim pool
Here we go from the Daily Beast.
Do I have to say it or does somebody else?
Trump's sinister warning of civil war after ICE shooting.
raymond g stanley-jr
Super excited.
tim pool
Democrats said the president's comments were sick and deranged.
Oh boy.
President Donald Trump has warned Democrats that bad things will happen to them if right-wing people decide to retaliate amid growing tensions over this week's deadly shooting at Texas Immigration Facility.
While investigations into the shooting are still ongoing, the president has made it clear that he believes the radical left is solely responsible for Wednesday's tragedy.
I mean, they literally did a press conference and they were like, yep, he was a leftist and he hated Trump.
And he said he wanted to strike fear and terror into the hearts of ICE agents so they never know if there's a sniper waiting on the rooftop for him.
No law enforcement officers were hurt in the incident, but authorities say the shooting was politically motivated, targeting ICE agents who are central to Trump's deportation strategy.
Asked in the Oval Office on Thursday who was to blame, Trump said he did not doubt the radical left is causing the problem.
He also name-checked people such as Democrat Congressman Jasmine Crockett, who's been critical of ICE's heavy-handed tactics.
But despite calls to turn down the temperature in America, the president went even further, warning that things were only going to get worse for one side.
Quote, bad things will happen when they play these games.
I'll give you a little clue.
The right is a lot tougher than the left.
They better not get them energized because it won't be good for the left.
It'll be a point where other people won't take it anymore, and we don't want that.
Now, the funny thing is, Trump didn't say civil war.
Daily Beast did.
I did not say Civil War.
Daily Beast did.
The fascinating thing is while for the past several years, people have largely criticized me for covering these articles and talking about this possibility.
In the past two or three years, it has largely been the left warning that a civil war was coming.
No joke, go to Blue Sky or Reddit.
And so we did a few segments on this show where I went to Reddit and looked up all the leftist subreddits where they were all saying literally civil war is coming.
And I think it's because they knew that Trump was going to win.
More importantly, when Trump took a bullet and narrowly survived, everyone on X, left and right, said we were millimeters away from a civil war.
Now, with the, I'm going to say it again, three terror attacks in three weeks.
I fully, I tweeted this last night.
Am I going to go to bed and wake up to news of another terror attack?
Like, honestly, it's been insane.
Waking up, and I woke up in the morning and it's like ICE facility shut up.
It's just going to keep getting worse because they won't stop.
On CNN the other night, Bakari Sellers is basically once again pushing and pushing and pushing.
And what I can't understand is why right now, not a single Democrat on any of these shows just says, guys, everybody, cool it, stop.
Conservatives do it all the time.
Conservatives beg for it to stop.
Certainly, don't get me wrong, there are liberals and Democrats who have called for it.
However, they tend to be lower in notoriety.
I saw a former spokesperson for Biden or whatever on Fox say, yeah, we don't want this.
And I'm like, but no one knows who that is.
Just no following and no influence.
phil labonte
There's not one prominent Democrat that has come out and said, stop attacking law enforcement.
Let law enforcement do their job, which is the most, most antine, basic thing that you want to hear out of a representative.
If you're a Democrat and you actually want to see the temperature turn down and you don't want to see more violence, then you need to come out and say, stop inhibiting law enforcement from doing their job.
Stop calling them the Gestapo.
Stop telling them that they have to take their masks off because you know if they take their masks off, what's going to happen is their family is going to be doxxed and their families will be attacked.
Stop doing all of the stuff that you're doing that is not saying law enforcement has a job and they are empowered to do it.
Just stop doing that.
And then I might believe that you actually want the violence to stop.
And until then, I don't believe that you want the violence to stop.
tim pool
No, I got to interject there.
Masks should come off.
And I do agree that they need to tone the rhetoric down, which can include the mask commentary.
But I do think the feds should not wear masks.
I think if you want to go out proudly in defense of this nation, you must accept those risks.
And I do not appreciate, and I certainly understand.
I am here every single night with my face on camera.
I have been doxed.
I have been swatted numerous times.
I've been attacked.
I understand my job doesn't require me to be on the ground in front of these people, but that's something they accept even with masks on, that there is a physical danger that they are experiencing.
I think we cannot play a game where we have federal law enforcement being like the threat of terrorism is so serious, we have to hide ourselves.
I think each and every one of these officers engaging in this should take their masks off and say, I am name, you know, John Smith, a proud American legally and lawfully enforcing the law.
You are terrorists and we won't stand for it.
That's it.
We should, I'm sorry, I'm not playing this federal law enforcement to hide their faces because they're scared.
We know.
I get it.
And I feel for you because the left are violent psychopaths.
But I don't think this is how we should be handling it.
I think we should be we have to be, I don't know, steadfast, vigilant, and I don't know.
Just we have to face this challenge head on.
raymond g stanley-jr
If we're better than them, real quick, if we think we're better than them, which we are and we think we are, and we feel a certain way, we should take off.
You're right.
I like the idea of taking off the mask because we stand for a purpose and a point.
tim pool
Nope, everyone's posting ones.
You're all wrong.
Like, I am not going to tolerate, I will not live in a country where cops walk around with no badge numbers and masks on covering their faces because they're scared.
Because they're scared.
You are operating under color of law.
You are entitled to do so.
You are protected to do so.
And fear of far-left terror, I do not believe is a good enough reason that regular people should have to live with cops walking around in all black.
joseph moulton
I mean, I think there has to be some sort of preemptive measures for that.
I mean, these people with families and kids and livelihoods, like, yes, they're representing the federal government, but I mean, of course, they're scared, but there hasn't been a lot of preemptive measures to counter this far-left terrorism.
I mean, we're starting to see it now following the Charlie Kirk's assassination, but these guys are going to want guarantees.
Otherwise, I imagine a lot of them will just walk out of their jobs if they're told they have to have to unmask.
They're living next to these people.
We've seen from the backlash of Charlie Kirk's murder, how many people in Blue Sky were just hundreds of thousands of likes calling for deaths of Ben Shapiro, other politicians, political commentators.
They want blood, and these people are living next door to them.
You don't know who they are.
They're so emboldened that it's going to be very difficult to persuade these guys.
Yeah, let's de-mask.
And then next minute, they're getting knocks at the door, their family's being harassed, or they're actually potentially going to be.
tim pool
I totally get it.
You've got two options: civil war or not.
And if the argument is the threat of far-left terror is so pervasive in our hometowns that our own police officers have to hide their identities, you're in a civil war.
End of story, no argument.
Let me say it again to everyone out there that are telling me, you're telling me that I have to live in a country where any cop anywhere is going to not have a badge number visible.
They're going to cover their faces so they can't be doxxed.
I don't get to know who they are.
You are at war when that is the reality.
If that's what you're saying, and I got no problem with that's the reality.
And I agree with you then.
If you want to say civil war has begun, then I'll say, okay, mask up.
Because I understand the argument.
Law enforcement may quit.
We'll have nobody willing to actually do the job because the far left is going to come for their families.
Yeah, you're at war.
If you are saying there are insurgent terrorists all across this country that will kill you and your family, you are at war.
That's just it.
joseph moulton
That's what I think it is.
I think that people don't realize, particularly on the right, they don't realize how aggressive and vicious these people really are.
I don't think that, you know, as a society, we've really stepped back and looked at it because the media institutions are kind of, they're encouraging it, right?
Like all this dehumanizing language, like calling them the Gestapo.
I mean, that's what it's for, is to dehumanize them to justify violence.
tim pool
Let me ask you, I'm going to ask you guys a quick question.
Why does Antifa wear masks?
raymond g stanley-jr
So no one knows who they are.
tim pool
And why don't they want him to know who they are?
raymond g stanley-jr
Because they're doing bad things.
tim pool
But that's not an answer.
raymond g stanley-jr
Oh, it was an answer, but they don't want him to know because they're a group.
They're like a blob of group of people.
tim pool
Why does Antifa wear masks?
phil labonte
They wear masks.
And well, the black block wear masks and stuff so that way they can blend back into the crowd.
tim pool
And what does that accomplish for them?
phil labonte
That way they won't get arrested.
tim pool
Well, they will get arrested.
joseph moulton
They're anonymous.
tim pool
A cop can grab anybody off the street and arrest them regardless of what they're wearing.
The purpose of wearing a mask is so that you can't take pictures of their face.
You can't share their information online.
And if they get caught, you can't prosecute them because you can't prove beyond a reasonable doubt.
We are asking for that same thing with our law enforcement as well.
And if you want to acknowledge that we are saying we want our law enforcement people to go out, you can't figure out who they are.
You can't take pictures of their face.
Anything that happens in the fray, we won't be able to pinpoint which officer necessarily because just like Antifa, we have created a large group of individuals that are wearing the exact same clothes and you can't see their face.
This means that if one of these guys in a conflict with the far left cracks a skull or whatever, they can't do anything legally about it.
If that's the argument you're going to make, we are in a civil war period.
tate brown
Well, the big thing with ICE that we're all missing here is that the reason they have to mask primarily is because they're dealing with drug busts and the cartel.
And that's a massive infrastructure, especially in the southwest United States.
And they've been masking for like 10 years now.
And it's primarily because, okay, yes, there is a factor at the far left where they dox these guys, but the ICE is in a completely different battlefield from the rest of like, I guess you would say the right wing is because ICE is having to deal with the cartel.
They're having to deal with these drug busts and busting up these human trafficking routes and these sorts of things.
So it's like, it's not the far left they're worried about.
Like if you talk to these ICE agents, typically it's the cartels and the retribution from those guys is what they're typically rating.
unidentified
I get it.
tim pool
I get it.
I agree.
I respect that argument for sure.
But again, I'm going to say this bottom line.
If y'all want to say we're at war, then war powers.
And what does that mean?
Guys, if you're arguing that our federal law enforcement should be able to wear masks because of wartime conditions, I'm actually going to push you one further and say you are not giving our men and women enough.
If the argument is the threat of the far-left terror is so great against their families, we got to step it up.
Well, I mean, not just masks.
They got to get more.
They need selective fire rifles.
They need full military, everything.
phil labonte
They already have selected fire rifles, but the point.
tim pool
Not the cops, not the beat cops.
phil labonte
Well, yeah, okay.
So they usually have a rifle in their car.
They don't carry them on there.
But the point is, so you're talking about ICE that's trying to carry out these, you know, these, they're trying to wrap up the illegal.
tim pool
Well, I was talking specifically about all federal law enforcement.
I think a lot of people are taking that to assume just the ICE.
I'm saying.
phil labonte
Well, generally, ICE is the ones that are wearing the masks and stuff, right?
So you don't see a lot of that's what people are complaining about, right?
tim pool
The general argument is that police shouldn't be wearing masks.
phil labonte
So, okay, fine.
tim pool
I'm saying that I don't want to live where police.
Like I mentioned, local cops wearing masks.
phil labonte
Okay, fine.
But so the federal law enforcement are wearing masks, right?
And we don't, and you say you don't want that.
What that requires, right?
You're saying if they have to wear masks, that means that the violence and the problems are too great to be considered normal.
But that for the local police who have jurisdiction to go out and pick up the people that might actually attack the federal law enforcement, they're not doing it because the sanctuary cities are saying, no, we won't have these people do these things because we won't, you know, and the local municipalities won't do it.
So the problem is the federal government needs to get the local municipalities and stuff to actually do their job.
tim pool
So let me ask you a quick question.
When there is a, let's just say like a jurisdiction, for lack of a better word, that is not required to abide by the laws of a separate jurisdiction.
It largely says we don't have, you don't have anything to do with this.
There's two separate locations.
When jurisdiction B sends armed men into jurisdiction A to enforce laws that jurisdiction A says we do not abide by.
What do you call that?
phil labonte
When they send people into the case.
tim pool
There are two isolated jurisdictions.
phil labonte
Yeah.
tim pool
Two isolated jurisdictions with separate laws, different worldviews, different rules.
One city decides to arm a bunch of guys and send them into the other side by force against their will to enforce laws that the other city wants enforcement.
phil labonte
So you're pointing at civil war.
tim pool
I'm not talking about civil war.
I'm talking about it's war.
It's just period war.
If the argument is that California won't abide by federal law, has ordered their people to defy federal law, is allowing individuals to defy federal law, they are not part of this country as it is.
Part of this country means that your structures, state, city, local, or otherwise, are going to abide by legal supremacy in this country up to the Constitution.
What we are seeing right now, if this is the argument, is that blue states have just said absolutely not.
And when Trump said, this is our election happened, people said immigration.
We're going to go and start rounding people up.
What happened?
At the governmental level, Gavin Newsom fought the federal law enforcement, ordering the National Guard not to listen to Donald Trump under his orders, which he's allowed to do because they're not enforcing the law.
If our ICE agents, let's isolate to ICE, are at a point where they're facing a threat from terrorists that have support from Democrat politicians who help fundraise for them, NGOs run by prominent Democrat donors, and in California, Gavin Newsom and local law enforcement lets these people attack federal facilities.
I would call that akin to piracy, right?
And at that point, I think it's very obvious when you break it down that way, we are in a civil war.
joseph moulton
Yeah, I just think if you look from like Trump's perspective, right, he's tried to de-escalate this Charlie Kirk situation.
There hasn't been like hard rhetoric, get retribution.
And like in that article you were talking about, he didn't mention civil war.
He was just warning from a very logical position.
If you keep attacking the right, eventually they're going to go, are we supposed to just sit and take it or are we going to retaliate?
That's kind of what he was saying there.
He wasn't saying it from like a Republican position.
So if you're Trump, you tell them to demas, which I believe that all federal employees, particularly law enforcement, there should be that accountability.
Your face should be out there in an ideal world.
Let's say they do demas.
tim pool
Not at work.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
We know that there's going to be some sort of physical retribution, attacks on these people.
That's only going to escalate the situation, right?
To something that is going to be more kinetic, that potentially is going to be far more divisive.
I don't think he wants to be the president that is dealing with that on his plate.
He wants to just get his policies done in the way which is most amicable as possible.
They obviously don't want that, which is why we're in the situation now.
tim pool
I give you two options then.
Stop pussyfooting around and go and arrest all of them.
Don't give me this excuse.
I'm scared.
I have to wear a mask.
Send the law enforcement to kick the doors into the far left people that are threatening you and put them in prison, then take your mask off.
unidentified
Agreed?
joseph moulton
100%.
tim pool
I'm sick of this half measure.
phil labonte
I don't think that they have the ability to isolate the people that are actually making the that are likely to do like the doxing and stuff like that.
I think it's part of the problem.
tim pool
I don't care.
The doxing is annoying, but at the same time, it is the individuals who carry out the violence that are the real problem.
Getting doxxed is bad.
We've been doxxed, and it's crazy what people are capable of.
But the guy who posts my address is a problem.
The guy who comes here to care the threat is the threat.
joseph moulton
But it's not a unitary organized attack.
So look at the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk.
I don't think there were, as far as we're aware, there weren't big indications that this was a guy who was militarized and violent and ready to assassinate.
And if it was, it seems from the evidence that I've seen, it seems like it was something that was almost like a spur of the moment.
He hit a psychological breaking point and decided to do that.
They're more akin to random acts of violence.
It's not like a big organized, premeditated, right, we're going to get that guy, we're going to get that.
tim pool
So it's much harder to tackle.
Yes, I get it.
If your argument is any one of these individuals walking down the street at any moment might turn around and stab you, then it's time for Trump to dissolve the U.S. Constitution under Presidential Directive 51, create an enduring constitutional government under a single branch, as George W. Bush's executive order in 2007 granted the executive branch power to do.
And then he can send out his masked, militarized police force across the country to make sure this doesn't happen.
But the argument that we are at a point where a random individual might pull out a gun and shoot you at any moment, if that is the case, it is worse than anyone realizes.
We are in an active civil war.
And instead of half-assing it and being like, just keep doing your job, but hide in the meantime, that's insane.
joseph moulton
How do you fight an idea?
How do you fight an idea?
Like, it's not an organized structure.
tim pool
That Trump dissolves the United States and creates the first American empire.
And then he creates a massive, multi-billion dollar federal police force that supersedes all of the local governments and then starts searching people's homes.
And I mean, what is the argument to at any moment, a random liberal might detonate a bomb or shoot somebody?
joseph moulton
It's almost like a denazification program at that point.
You'd have to go in and you'd have to gut the institutions.
It would be a complete, like you said, like it'd be a transformative measure.
I don't think he's got the appetite for that.
tim pool
Let's just try and do the math.
Three terror attacks in three weeks.
It was mainstream liberal ideology that was behind the shoot, the murder of Charlie Kirk.
joseph moulton
Right.
tim pool
So I agree with your point.
I think you are correct.
We don't know who's been radicalized.
It could be too many people.
And even AOC is espousing the ideology that this guy shared that motivated him on the House floor.
Okay, let's try denensification.
So, how do we figure out who holds the ideology and is needing a re-education?
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, we're going to follow the donors.
We're going to see the top-down media who.
tim pool
Well, this was a random guy at home, like you mentioned.
It is a random guy.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but I mean, you can look at the media he was consuming, right?
You can see the groups that he's in, the ideologies he's identifying with.
tim pool
Right.
So, my question is: how do you find him before he kills Charlie Kirk?
joseph moulton
That's almost like how do you stop a guy if it's almost like a thought crime before they've done it.
tim pool
Agree, you can't, which is why I said the solution to the problem you're describing is Trump dissolving the three branches of government under Presidential Directive 51, creating an enduring constitutional government as prescribed by National Security Presidential Directive 51, and then he creates a federalized police force which goes and secures every street corner because we don't know at what point a liberal is going to just go start foaming at the mouth, plot a gun and shoot a random person.
Now, I don't think we can live that way, and I don't think anyone would tolerate that.
So, the idea is right now, where are we?
Law enforcement can't do their job because the threat of left-wing terror is too great.
Okay, well, we're losing then.
We are losing if that's the case.
I don't want to lose.
There's no such thing as we're going to knock on doors and ask people if they're radicalized and then bring them to a re-education center.
There's no way we're going to find some random dude who's on Discord who one day decided to take his grandfather's gun and go assassinate Charlie Kirk because they're just people walking around.
If the radicalization is that bad, then the only answer is full-blown, full-scale American empire.
Like, Trump has to go iron fist on the table right now before it actually comes to multi-faction war across the United States.
joseph moulton
I would argue even Trump's base doesn't have the appetite for that.
tim pool
Then we lose, then we lost.
This is the point I'm making.
To everybody who's like, no, law enforcement should wear masks.
If your argument is we need our law enforcement to mask up because they fear that the left will attack them and will go after their families, we've lost.
Like, what we are describing is we are a diminished capacity force with scared federal law enforcement that are concerned that the might of leftist terror would overwhelm them and they won't be able to do their jobs, so they have to hide themselves.
The reason why Antifa wear masks is because there is a more powerful state that can crush them and they're trying to hide from it.
But when communists take power, they put on uniforms.
If the argument is our men in uniform have to hide, we are losing.
joseph moulton
I mean, I know in the UK, for example, they would do this almost harassments of dissidents, where before people could commit a crime, and the UK has got a huge amount of these human rights problems.
But one of the things that they did do fairly well, which has curbed radicalism, is when they see people expressing these ideological tendencies, they will get these knocks on the door.
And the idea is that you're being watched, you're going to be less emboldened to go do something.
But I fully disagree with that, Laura because it can be massively abused.
When you look at it from a civil liberties point of view, there is no easy answer here.
You're in a society that is so polarized now with such a lust for political violence on one side, and then the other side is kind of going, well, look, no cities burnt down when Charlie Kirk was killed.
It's like, yeah, that's a great virtue.
But when the other side literally wants you dead, what is the solution?
What can Trump realistically do?
And what is the average Republican voter actually going to do themselves to try and negate that fact?
It's a very difficult question.
tim pool
Well, here's a story from the post-millennial.
Trump signs order launching all of government effort to dismantle left-wing domestic terror groups.
The post-millennial reports, President Trump signed a memorandum on Thursday launching an administration-wide effort to dismantle left-wing domestic terror groups across the country.
The order seeks to interdict the groups, block them from performing violent acts, and the administration will look at sources of funding.
Let's play the video.
donald j trump
Anarchists and agitators, professional anarchists and agitators, and they get hired by wealthy people, some of whom I know, I guess.
Yeah, I probably know them.
And you wouldn't know it.
At dinner with them, everything's nice, and then you find out that they funded millions of dollars to these lunatics.
Steve, could you say a couple of words?
stephen miller
Yes, Mr. President.
This is a very historic and significant day.
This is the first time in American history that there is an all-government effort to dismantle left-wing terrorism, to dismantle Antifa, to dismantle the organizations that have been carrying out these acts of political violence and terrorism.
What we have seen, if you look at whether it be going back to the riots that started with Black Lives Matter and all the way through to the Antifa riots, the attacks on ICE officers, the doxing campaigns, and now the political assassinations, these are not lone isolated events.
This is part of an organized campaign of radical left terrorism.
It is structured.
It is sophisticated.
It is well funded.
It is well planned.
There is really no parallel like this to anything else in the country right now.
There is an entire system of feeder organizations that provide money, resources, weapons.
And when they're attacking ICE officers, they're attacking federal buildings, or they're isolating public officials for harassment, doxing, intimidation, and ultimately attempted assassination.
It is all carefully planned, executed, and thought through.
It is terrorism on our soil.
Because of this executive order, Cash and Pam are going to have the tools they need working with Scott to take these organizations apart piece by piece.
And the central hub of that effort is going to be the Joint Terrorism Task Force, or JTTF, which sits inside the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
But for those at home who are worried about terrorism in this country, they need to understand because of President Trump's strength, because of his vision, because of his leadership, we are now going to use the entire force of the federal government to uproot these organizations, root and branch.
And again, that's only possible because of President Trump and his leadership.
donald j trump
Thank you, Steve Cash.
tim pool
I'm going to take this opportunity to announce my retirement.
This will be my last show.
I've decided that I shouldn't be showing my face because of the threats against me and my family.
I think I have been convinced by the audience.
The threats that we've received over the past week, even being completely uninvolved in anything related to TPUSA, have been so tremendous that my security team warned I wouldn't be able to travel.
And a disguise wasn't necessarily an option because my travel itinerary stuff can be leaked as well, especially by employees who are doing load manifest.
And the issue being that with prominent mainstream run-of-the-mill liberals posting that they wanted to see these deaths, the concern is, you're absolutely right, Joseph, in what you were saying.
We don't know which one of these people might just see a flight manifest and then send a message to a Discord saying Tim Poole's going to be on this plane.
Here's when it's landing.
So the ultimate decision was we could buy four plane tickets, you, your wife, two security guards.
You'll land.
We'll have two security guards waiting for you, four-person escort to an armored SUV, which will bring you to a hotel where we'll stand guard outside of the door for 24-7 security, be transported to the event where security will stay with you at all times.
And then you will go back.
You'll be confined to your hotel.
I said, I don't think I want to do that.
And they said, you probably shouldn't travel.
And, you know, so I think everybody's correct in that I'm not a law enforcement guy.
I'm just somebody with opinions and the threats are really great.
And they're trying to figure out where I live.
They come to my house.
Why would I take this risk at all?
So I quit.
raymond g stanley-jr
Just because just, I'm sorry to hear that, Tim.
But also in the political world, we're talking about how anything can happen anytime.
Left-wingers and liberal folks can get crazy right off the bat.
We live in that world now.
Look at that young lady who got stabbed on the train.
Anyone right now, today you walk out the street, you get shot and killed by anyone, by anyone, anywhere.
So we're just focusing on the political world.
tim pool
I'll be more serious about it.
I don't understand the argument that people are telling me I'm wrong about asking our law enforcement to stand firm and proud and fight for their country.
And they're saying, no, they should hide, but then expecting me to have to live in a box.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah.
tim pool
I'd much rather just, I can, I can, you know, it's really funny.
I, uh, I put on a blue t-shirt.
I should describe it down here.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah, I've seen that.
tim pool
Well, I'll just say it.
I put on a blue t-shirt, took my hat off, and put on glasses, and no one knew who I was.
raymond g stanley-jr
I walked and we're like, who is this guy?
tim pool
Yep, everybody, and then, and then I walked up and they went, uh, so uh, you know, I, I, I can be real.
Like, if this is the opinion people have, honest question, why do you expect me to do this forward-facing publicly with my own name where I'm worried about whether our food's being tampered with, we can't order food, we have to have bodyguards.
Like, why am I living this way?
If our law enforcement gets special protections and privileges, you expect me to do all of this.
I'm just kind of like, maybe you guys are right.
Maybe we should all hide.
Maybe we shouldn't put ourselves at risk.
I can launch a new YouTube channel with an AI.
There's like, isn't it an honest question?
Is Liberal High of Mine just AI, right?
That YouTube channel?
Is the guy?
Okay.
raymond g stanley-jr
Okay.
tim pool
Because it very much sounds like AI.
raymond g stanley-jr
Okay.
tim pool
That's just how he is.
Okay.
unidentified
Sorry.
tim pool
I didn't mean to impugn your honor.
But I could just launch an AI channel known over, make it a woman.
Yeah, you're an AI avatar female.
Like, no, you know what I'll do?
The anime waifu.
raymond g stanley-jr
You did the VTuber.
Yes.
You can move around and they move.
You can be like a rabbit with a chick.
tim pool
Oh, bro, I'm out.
Why don't I do that?
phil labonte
I mean, it'd be a VTuber.
raymond g stanley-jr
Your voice, you'd have to change your voice.
unidentified
Done.
tim pool
Easy.
You got those real-time AI voice changers.
raymond g stanley-jr
You're way more front-facing towards the political world than the cops are, than one cop on the street, than one.
tim pool
Which is, which my point would be that most of these cops have substantially less risk than I do.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yes, they do.
tim pool
So if the argument is they should wear masks, no one should know who they are because the left are terrorists.
I'm like, I'm being 100% serious thinking about that.
Like, if that's what people really think, they just killed Charlie.
Like, maybe none of us should be doing this and we should just sit back and let Trump do his thing.
tate brown
But for an ICE agent, what difference does it make for their job if they have their face out there in their name?
Because at the end of the day, they're a badge and they're conducting an operation, a very specific job.
Like, it doesn't matter if they're a public individual or not.
We're trying to get legal immigrants out.
Like, how do we do that?
tim pool
The argument is the far left might try to dox them.
And I'm sitting here being like, well, I'm already doxed.
The far left, once they dox, they might try to kill them.
Like, they're literally trying to kill me.
And we have people showing up and I have to get guns.
unidentified
Right.
tate brown
But if you're an ICE agent making, I mean, I know they're getting paid decent, but they don't have the money for security or anything.
And it's like, it doesn't, it's not advantageous for them in any way to be like a public-facing person.
Like, it doesn't, if anything, it just makes it worse.
raymond g stanley-jr
But they're not a public-facing person.
tate brown
They don't have to be, and that's why they're mad.
tim pool
No, there's tons of anonymous personalities that make tons of money doing political commentary.
tate brown
Yeah, it's true.
Yeah.
I mean, and I think that's fine.
I do think there's value.
tim pool
Maybe that's where we're going.
I mean, look, Charlie got assassinated.
tate brown
Yeah, I do actually think like anonymous or pseudonyms is like fine in the political space and they're able to push ideas without fear of getting killed.
joseph moulton
I mean, people ultimately buy from people.
And when the, you know, you are disseminating ideas, they're buying into an idea.
They're buying into, especially if you become a living embodiment of that idea.
I want to be like that guy.
tate brown
Right, right.
joseph moulton
I want to live in the way that he lives because he seems really fulfilled.
I understand what you're saying completely.
Like let's, they should be demasked, but what that would be, it would be a giant gambit.
And you would, we know what would happen.
We would see families being targeted.
We would potentially see targeted assassinations, but it'd be on a much larger scale.
tim pool
I don't think so.
joseph moulton
You don't?
tim pool
No.
joseph moulton
Well, why aren't they?
tim pool
There is a risk department somewhere that is an individual because there's a reason why they killed Charlie Kirk and not an individual ICE agent.
There's tons of federal law enforcement, including guys that aren't wearing masks, just some of them are.
And they went three.
They killed Charlie.
tate brown
Right.
But they tried to kill ICE agents.
tim pool
Who did?
tate brown
Like two days ago.
tim pool
No, who?
raymond g stanley-jr
Joseph Jones.
tate brown
Joseph John or whatever.
tim pool
Oh, right, right, right.
So that's, but that was indiscriminate.
That wasn't a targeted guy's house.
No, but it was the third terror attack on ICE where they went to a facility and attacked random people.
In fact, you killed detainees.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
The argument we're making is they will go to the home of the ICE agent.
tate brown
I mean, yeah, presumably if their information, if they're privy to information at some point, I mean, you can go on LinkedIn and find this.
unidentified
And the cartel is a, I mean, you got a CBP facility here.
tim pool
You could just sit outside and collect license plates.
joseph moulton
I mean, the cartel things are important.
We've seen the assassination of various DEA agents, right?
Like that happens a lot, right?
They would be in the same realm as that.
However, the difference is that that is like, you know, the cartels are a foreign organization.
So it's seen as an external threat, foreign terrorist organization.
tim pool
Yeah, no, I don't.
joseph moulton
And within the cartels, when it's on your own soil and it's your next door neighbor, it's the guy sitting next to you on the bus.
It's a completely different, almost like years of lead type scenario.
Yeah, if they do demask, they're obviously not because there has been a risk management sort of assessment, probably like hundreds and hundreds of pages long that has gone, actually, it's probably best that these guys stay masked up.
tim pool
Yeah.
The reason why the left doesn't have any leaders, they actually do.
And I will tell you this from literally being in these direct action meetings with leftists.
They have leaders.
The leaders organize.
They supply money, tools, and then they say, I'm not your leader.
And if anyone asks, I'm not in charge.
When they go out to protest, you'll never see anybody directly leading the group because they say law enforcement will target any perceived leaders.
So that's why they say Antifa is a leaderless movement.
It has leaders.
They're just lying.
Liberals cover up for them or they're just stupid.
Someone is funding these tools.
Someone is buying these things and handing them out.
Someone is telling these people where to go.
Someone is saying, here's the route we're going to take.
And it's usually a small group.
The hierarchy is natural.
Usually it's a young guy who says, here's what we're doing.
And they say, okay.
Because I mean, let's just be real.
Communism isn't the real thing.
The idea that there's like a truly decentralized group of friends all holding hands, just being like, how many of you want to vote for a route that goes down Broadway and turns left at 45th?
Raise your hand.
They don't do that.
One guy goes, here's the plan.
We're going to march from the financial district down Broadway.
We're going to turn left at 42nd, make our way to Bryant Park.
From there, we've got a group waiting with shields.
And they go, okay.
Now, who's that guy?
Who does he work for?
Where's the money coming from?
joseph moulton
I mean, that's what this needs to resolve.
Indeed.
But has it, when we were talking before the show, that potentially this doesn't actually change much?
Like, is this really going to give him the tools and give the FBI the tools to dig into these people, hold them accountable?
I mean, it is kind of that vague thing.
I made a donation.
I don't know what happened to the money after it went out.
I thought it was for a good cause.
It was a misappropriation of funds.
They know what they're doing.
They're not stupid.
They're highly sophisticated actors.
When they are doing these donations and they are sort of pushing these ideas and kind of giving someone a tap on the shoulder to do something, it's done in a way where they're not going to be held legally accountable.
phil labonte
The donors themselves, the people that are actually making the donations, if they're in the small denomination, they likely do think, okay, I'm just doing this to help.
Because the people that donated to Black Lives Matter, they were conned.
And, you know, those people, they thought they were doing something good.
But the people that are running the organization and those people, you know, they have to file paperwork and et cetera.
Those people you can wrap up and those people that the DOJ can look into.
And then any big donations, like, you know, really sizable, hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars, that's something the feds can look into as well.
tim pool
What if Trump was like, we're declaring Antifa a terrorist organization?
All of those who are flying the symbols of Antifa, who are pledging allegiance to or support for our fair game.
unidentified
I think that that's what our solution should be.
raymond g stanley-jr
Our commies are right.
tim pool
But you're saying that that means regular citizens going out, taking individual action as a civilian against someone who's flying the Antifa flag.
phil labonte
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I misunderstood.
unidentified
I thought you were talking about federal law enforcement.
tim pool
No, I'm saying Trump tells everyone in this country, if you as an individual stop someone who's flying Antifa, like I asked you a question.
phil labonte
What if Trump did that?
That would be a terrible situation.
tim pool
Well, so the reason I ask that question is that Trump has designated Antifa a terrorist organization.
What does that mean?
If you are a citizen of this country and you are walking down the street and you see a guy with a gun waving an ISIS flag, will you go to jail if you stop that person?
phil labonte
Depends on the jurisdiction.
tim pool
That's why I'm asking what would happen.
The point I'm making with the question is, Trump has said Antifa are terrorists.
What is the legal ramification of a citizen saying citizen's arrest or citizen enforcement action against a terrorist flying a terrorist flag?
raymond g stanley-jr
If you're a terrorist on my land, I have a right to stop you in my country from doing terrorism.
tim pool
Well, I don't know what you do.
raymond g stanley-jr
Well, I'm just saying, like, in general, like, you would think that folks would want to stop terrorism on their own account.
joseph moulton
It should be.
I mean, like, let's say there was like an Islamic terrorist.
Yeah.
That was waving one of the several flags.
I'm not going to say it.
Some case would get demonetized, but it's like, I'm sure, I doubt a jury in a court would prosecute them for, you know, this guy's waving a firearm or whatever, and he shoots him and preemptively stops up to terrorists.
phil labonte
It all depends on the jurisdiction.
Totally depends on the jurisdiction.
If you do that in New York, you're going to jail forever.
unidentified
Right.
phil labonte
Right.
If the guy was actually, if the guy was actually shooting at people in New York, there's still a possibility that you would go to jail if you took him out.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, that's something that needs to be addressed on a federal level.
Is that even possible?
Can they do that?
I mean, I'm not familiar with the people.
phil labonte
Well, it would be a local thing.
The feds wouldn't actually have jurisdiction over that.
raymond g stanley-jr
The blue states are in a soft succession right now because they have sanitary states.
So they're softly succeeding, trying to, but they're not really doing it, but it's like a soft civilization.
phil labonte
And if there's someone that's actually shooting or even probably menacing people with a gun, which means pointing a gun at someone, and you shot him in another, in a state that has stand your ground laws or has the Second Amendment friendly, there's a possibility that you could convince a jury.
No, he was going to hurt people and I prevented him.
Now, that would be dependent on the jury, but there is a possibility that, look, here's the situation.
He was saying these things.
He was yelling these things.
He was pointing his gun at people.
So I saw that and I figured I needed to take action to defend someone else because he was going.
I was in legitimate fear for my life and I believed that he was going to cause permanent harm or death to someone else.
So I acted to prevent, to end the threat because there was an ongoing threat.
Now, you can make that argument.
And if you have a good lawyer and you are in front of a jury that's fairly friendly to the Second Amendment and you're in a jurisdiction where there are people that are friendly to the Second Amendment, you might be able to get justifiable homicide.
But in a place like New Jersey, in a place like New York, that is not going to happen.
You will go to jail.
tim pool
So this is actually surprising.
My cursory search, which is surprising to me, is that if there is a known foreign terrorist organization individual, ISIS is a great example, who is flying the flag and armed and screaming while walking down the street, you have no legal right to do anything as a citizen against that person, be it stop them, detain them, or hurt them in any way.
They're to be treated, according to my cursory search, as if they were any other citizen, no matter what.
joseph moulton
So that sounds like something that needs to be dealt with, but obviously with the First Amendment right, is it political expression if you're waving the flag?
phil labonte
Everything that Tim said is true, but it still does depend on the jury.
tim pool
Yeah, well, you'll get arrested.
phil labonte
You'll get arrested.
In most places, you're going to get arrested.
There's very few places where you could get away with shooting someone and you wouldn't even.
tim pool
I'm pretty sure.
raymond g stanley-jr
It just has a flag.
tim pool
Well, let's clarify what you mean by arrest.
phil labonte
Very few, not none.
tim pool
I think you need to clarify what you mean by arrest.
phil labonte
The police are going to take you into custody.
tim pool
Custody is not arrest.
raymond g stanley-jr
Like being detained, you mean?
tim pool
Arrest is probably cause for a crime.
You're being taken to be processed for that crime.
phil labonte
I would still say that there are a few.
There are some jurisdictions where you might not.
tim pool
I'm pretty sure.
I can at least speak for West Virginia.
phil labonte
I would even get down to it.
unidentified
It depends on the property.
phil labonte
Yes, if you're on your property.
tim pool
Yeah.
And like in Florida with Zimmerman and Trayvon, I don't believe he was arrested.
He was brought in for questioning and then released, and that's what caused the controversy.
phil labonte
Yeah, I mean, that could be too.
Again, I think that it does depend.
It depends a lot on the, even down to the locality, because if you're in an urban area in a place like West Virginia, you might not get the same kind of treatment from the county sheriff or whatever that you would if you were in a more rural area.
joseph moulton
So do you think it's going to be a case of perhaps Trump needs to encourage the red states to adopt legislation to facilitate this sort of citizens' arrest, potentially if someone's holding a fire?
raymond g stanley-jr
This is one of those slippery slopes.
joseph moulton
It's a slippery slope, right?
And also, you're talking about this kind of like soft secession.
If you've got a de facto situation in blue states where these guys can walk around unattested and actually not just that, but can continue to grow.
phil labonte
It wouldn't be Trump.
It wouldn't be Trump.
It would have to be something that Congress passes to have the force of law.
And I don't know if that would stand because places like New York or New Jersey or Illinois, they would fight that under 10th Amendment grounds.
They would say, we have the state's right to do that.
tim pool
I think as we discuss this and go through the math of everything we're looking at, the real underlying thing that everyone is just saying is we're in a civil war.
joseph moulton
I think that it's across the West.
There is an ideological war.
I think that it is.
It's less of like a civil war, like you guys are here, you guys are there.
I mean, it is more of a years of lead type scenario.
tim pool
But that idea of you guys are here and we're there has never been a civil war ever.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, the American Civil War.
raymond g stanley-jr
Although there was a one line in a track.
joseph moulton
But that's that's the Spanish Civil War as well.
tim pool
But the American Civil War is the, it's not a civil war.
joseph moulton
Okay, well, semantics different.
But so most people would understand the Civil War is going to be something like the American Civil War, the Spanish Civil War.
tim pool
But what was the Spanish Civil War then?
joseph moulton
It was an ideological war.
raymond g stanley-jr
Right.
tim pool
But no, like there were factions fighting and there was no here and there.
It was Franco from Morocco went up to the south of Spain, rallied troops to fight against other military, seized control of military assets, and then you saw certain areas that were leaning in one direction, nationalist or Republican, and the fighting was actually all over the country until militarized force were able to secure certain areas and then push out the farm.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but I mean, even if you look at the Syrian Civil War, you can look at the live map, there was a front line, right?
Same in the Spanish Civil War, right?
Like, there are this city is ours.
Yes, there might be some insurgencies within those cities, but there was like, okay, they've got their military units there.
They've got their trucks.
tim pool
Right, but it was spotted all over.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, it wasn't.
tim pool
The Spanish Civil War was blotches.
There are front lines.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
So the American Civil War was actually a union fractured, a new union formed, and then the union, proper noun, sent troops down to force the separate union.
So that's very different from any other civil war ever throughout history.
What the U.S., the United States Civil War, they call it, is more akin to a standard war in Europe or something.
It is more akin to a conventional war by two countries.
That's effectively what the American Civil War was.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, the Spanish Civil War did have front lines.
tim pool
city this road these trains were under our control on the other when you look at the spanish there was still a differentiation whether you're under the national that that that that That's correct, because the Spanish Civil War was not a you're there and we're here.
It was this city is controlled by the Republicans, this farmland and this ruler is by the nationalists.
Down south, there's a pocket where we control in between, but the nationalists have this and the Republicans have this.
Yeah, but I mean, in traditional civil wars, control is spread out all over and blotches.
joseph moulton
I mean, even in the Confederacy, there were unionists who were living within the Confederate borders who were still aiding the Unionist side.
So as an insurgency, yes, but de facto, like, who was controlling lawyers?
tim pool
I'm just trying to clarify because the point I'm making is the United States Civil War is not a civil war by most historical standards.
The fact that there was a north and south dividing line, a Mason-Dixon line, is solely unique to the American Civil War.
Other civil wars throughout history had split control in various regions, not a north and a south.
There's northeastern, western, like when you look at the Spanish Civil War map and you watch how the militaries moved through areas, there were pockets over here that was nationalist, nationalist, nationalist.
The nationalists was largely like rural areas.
The Republicans were largely urban areas, and they were split up all over places.
joseph moulton
Initially, but then they did become, they did consolidate forces after initial period.
tim pool
Franco and his troops started crushing the left and moving through, they gained more control.
But the American Civil War started as something entirely different with a literal line between two unions.
In fact, Texas, one of the reasons for Texas secession to join the Confederacy was simple proximity.
When Texas voted to join the Confederacy, it was simply, we have no trade partners.
So I guess this is who we're with.
It wasn't like the people in Texas were like, we hate the union.
It was like, well, look, for all intents and purposes, we are part of the Confederacy.
In Maryland, they actually were one-third sympathetic to the South.
So it wasn't, and it's still a very important thing.
joseph moulton
I mean, there was still, what I was trying to get is there were still geographical states and regions which were considered under the control of those governments or forces, right?
tim pool
And that's true today right now in the United States.
joseph moulton
In the U.S., well, yes, no, like I don't think that like the governor, like Gavin Newsom, for example, is going to come out on the complete side of like, he denounced the murder of Charlie Cook.
Like he's not on the same parallel as the sort of people that Trump's sort of fighting here.
I don't think they might share the same ideological realm, but do I think Gavin Newsom is involved on grassroots level, anti-fur, you know, guys going and assassinating politicians?
No.
I think they share the same ideological space.
So as a result, they don't even want to give an inch of ground because if they give an inch of ground against the left, then that's a complete flood against the.
tim pool
And that's a good distinction to determine when we're actually in a civil war is when you actually have a policy from a state defy the jurisdiction of the federal government and say, we will not abide by your rules.
joseph moulton
Which I guess your argument is going to be with like the sanctuary city stuff.
tim pool
Well, I guess never mind.
That's probably not a good distinction because that literally is what all of them are doing.
So if it's not, okay.
I'm being completely honest question here.
We have political assassinations.
We've got California allowing far leftists to firebomb and attack federal law enforcement with impunity.
In the Pacific Northwest, they did the same thing.
Portland, local law enforcement isn't stopping these guys.
They've let them do it for now three months.
I think it's been going on in Portland, and the feds are trying to stop it.
It's not to the point where Gavin Newsom says, go and arrest those federal agents, but Gavin Newsom just ordered federal agents to take their masks off.
So the question then is: we're looking at this gradient to try and figure out when it is technically a civil war, but I can say this.
We are in a period of assassinations where the mainstream political faction of the left celebrates it, or they lie about it, or they defend it.
The ideology that motivated the assassin is espoused on the floor of our own congressional house by the most famous Democrat, in my opinion, AOC.
You can make arguments about any of the other Democrats, but they've largely waned.
And as pertains to law enforcement, the California government is letting far leftists organize and firebomb federal facilities.
It's California, Oregon, and Washington have been doing this for years.
Newsom tried to commandeer control of the National Guard away from Donald Trump and has now ordered federal law enforcement to abide by his rules and take their masks off.
Okay, so it's not a civil war.
joseph moulton
An insurrection, perhaps?
Is a better terminology?
Say insurrectionary activity.
phil labonte
Civil unrest.
Unrest still going.
It's what we've been calling it civil unrest for, you know, but I'm asking, like, when does it become a heap of sand?
tim pool
If Gavin Newsom, he just came out and said, where they passed a law, right, mandating authority over federal law enforcement, which they don't have the authority to do, and they're threatening federal law enforcement with arrest.
joseph moulton
It's all about Trump's response, right?
Trump would have, I imagine I'm not as well versed in American politics as you guys, but he would have somewhat of a mandate to go, okay, well, this state is acting in rebellion of the Union.
I'm sure there's some sort of legal prerequisites where he could potentially justify federalizing it, whatever it may be.
But I'm sure there's still a huge amount of legal frameworks to go through to try and resolve it before it gets to a point of actually there is no discussion.
It's like, we're going to do this, we're going to do that, and we're an impasse.
tim pool
Let's pull this up.
We got a story from CNN.
It's from a couple days ago.
California bans most law enforcement officers from wearing masks during operations.
California became the first state to ban most law enforcement officers, including federal immigration agents, from covering their faces while conducting official business under a bill that was signed Saturday by Governor Gavin Newsom and swiftly denounced by Trump administration officials.
The ban is a direct response to recent immigration raids in L.A., where federal agents wore masks while making mass arrests.
The raids prompted days of protests and led Trump to deploy National Guard troops and Marines.
Okay, so here's the question.
Law enforcement being dispatched to California is now being, it is forbidden for them to wear masks while conducting federal law enforcement.
Do you believe the government of California will enforce this law against federal law enforcement?
raymond g stanley-jr
I don't see that happening.
tate brown
I don't think they have to.
raymond g stanley-jr
That's a big line.
I don't think they have a big line to cross.
tate brown
They don't have a mechanism.
I mean, like, we saw in the 60s something somewhat similar in the civil rights era where the feds cracked down on states for not, you know, not playing ball, and then the federal government won.
raymond g stanley-jr
That's vice versa.
Feds cracking down on states.
This is a state trying to crack down on feds.
tim pool
Well, this is state.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yes, sir.
tim pool
What do you think, Phil?
You think Gavin Newsom will have state troopers go and arrest ICE for wearing masks?
phil labonte
I don't think he will.
I think that he'll posture.
I think that he'll posture, but I don't think that it'll actually dispatch.
tim pool
I think that's the line.
tate brown
Yeah, it's a big line.
tim pool
100%.
If Gavin Newsom arrests federal law enforcement, we are in new territory.
tate brown
That's 100% the line.
tim pool
I think the struggle we have with the concept of civil war is no one knows when you're in a civil war.
Throughout history, every single civil war, they have always argued and debated whether or not they were actually in a conflict.
And as we bring up famously, we historically look back at Fort Sumter as the beginning of the American Civil War, but the people who lived in the country at the time didn't even think we were in one and went and picnicked at the first Battle of Bull Run because they didn't think a civil war was happening.
And then the Confederates won, routed the North, sent them packing, and then thought the war ended.
They said, that's it.
No war.
We've just shown them.
And then Lincoln was like, nah, send in the troops.
And then four other states were like, oh my God, this is getting crazy.
What's going on?
Took a long time.
The first seven states to secede from the Union happened before Abraham Lincoln was even president.
Several months.
So I don't know that we'll actually know until we're well into it.
In fact, I believe they called it, what do they call it?
First, it was like a rebellion in the South.
Then it was called a conflict between states.
And then I think it was like a year later or a year or two, they started calling it the Civil War in the United States.
phil labonte
I mean, it is reasonable to say that it's possible, like right now, like looking back, you know, they'll say that now was the beginning of it, that the assassinations, that the first shots that were fired were actually people assassinating other people and taking shots at law enforcement and stuff like that.
tim pool
I mean, even though they're not.
Take a look at this one.
phil labonte
No, no.
tim pool
Who wants to read that headline?
phil labonte
Charlie Kirk's murder could become another Fort Sumter.
You know, the fact that this is something that the respectable journalists are talking about now, The Hill, which is absolutely legacy media, to call this, you know, far-fetched now with all of these attacks on ICE facilities, with the attempts on Trump, with the murder, this is no longer far-fetched.
This is no longer the stuff of a.
tim pool
Can I cash out like a 50-leg parlay or something on this one?
I'm going back seven years on this, boys.
joseph moulton
I mean, I'm going to play a bit of devil's advocate here.
I think that a lot of these legacy media are coming out with these very sensationalist headlines because they are losing to independent media and they can't keep up.
The people aren't interested in clicking some really kind of like boring whitebread sort of headlines anymore.
Like everybody's so sort of brain rotted from the scrolling, everything's sensationalized, World War III every other week that they kind of have been pushed towards this more radical discourse.
But the knock-on effects of reading stuff like that are very real.
It does put it in people's heads.
phil labonte
It's true, but if there weren't so many people that have died, there weren't so many attacks.
I mean, like there were four ICE facilities attacked since August 1st.
I think actually in the past three weeks.
tim pool
No, no, no.
It's been like three attacks in three months.
phil labonte
I Googled it last night when I did the intro, and it was four.
Actually, I did it on Grok and it was four ICE facilities attacked since August 1st is what I checked.
I asked how many ICE facilities had been attacked.
So yeah, like whether or not there were people killed, not all of them had casualties, but there were four ICE attacks or four ICE facilities attacked since August 1st.
So in the past two months, like you have Charlie Kirk that was murdered.
You have Donald Trump that was the assassination attempt.
That was just over a year ago.
Then there was, you can say that the attacks, I don't think that the attack, the murder of the Minnesota lawmaker was actually politically motivated, but there are people that'll swear up and down that it was.
This is something that is not unusual at this point in time.
Like this is something that has become almost commonplace.
I mean, people are waking up saying, hey, am I going to find out that there was another political murder in the country?
joseph moulton
Yeah.
I mean, even, like, the Epstein stuff with, like, the lawyers disappearing and, like, dying and these suicides, I think, like, it has become a lot more of a violent political atmosphere in America.
phil labonte
Yeah, I mean, there's always...
joseph moulton
It's become normalised to, you're almost, you're not surprised now.
Like, if it...
If I saw another assassination, I don't think I'm going to have the same reaction that I did to Charlie Kirk.
I'm somewhat expectant that seeing the level of praise that it's had from the left, that someone is going to do a copycat attack because they're going to hit that sort of like cult status.
tim pool
So we've got a half correction.
It's actually pretty wild that we can't and don't cover every story because if it doesn't reach, it doesn't bubble up.
We don't know.
But on August 29th, a person attempted to run over a CBP agent.
We've got the August 25th was bomb threats to a Dallas ICE facility.
If you're talking about the ambushes, then it's three in like three months.
If you're talking about everything from death threats to riots, it's five.
No, no, it's four.
It's four.
So, and I guess CPP doesn't really count.
So it's three since August 1st, broad.
And then violent attacks like rifle long range, those terror attacks, I think it's three in three months.
raymond g stanley-jr
On June 29th, when the 20-year-old set the fire and he killed the fireman, he killed the chief of police and Jai Morrison.
tim pool
Where was it?
raymond g stanley-jr
Clanfield Mountain, first of Texas, I believe.
You guys talked about it.
No, no, it's not ice, but I'm saying they set up ambushes, you know, more violent.
tim pool
There was the Zizian assassination of the CPP guy earlier this year.
Yeah, it's been pretty dang wild.
So we're definitely in Bleeding Kansas.
Isn't it kind of funny to say, like, hey guys, Bleeding Kansas confirmed.
Yesterday on the Will Kane show, they opened by calling this Bloody September.
I think Jack Pesobic was the first person I saw who called it Bloody September.
And I agree.
The reason why we say Bloody September is it condenses all of the ideas of the attacks into a single phrase, which can invoke that knowledge.
So it's a zip file for memory.
That's why we give things names.
joseph moulton
Do you think that the economic fallout of something like this escalating, though, is going to be far too great?
I mean, the thing that people care about the most is ultimately, do I have a good standard of living?
phil labonte
If there is a.
joseph moulton
think that like here does have that sort of political climate because I mean when you look at there's no kids There's no kids?
tim pool
Gen Alpha is half the size of Millennial and Gen Z. That's the problem.
joseph moulton
But is it on the conservative side, though?
Because I've never seen this many young families of guys in their 20s, married kids, highly Christian.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
But even with that trend among Gen Z, Gen Alpha is 40 million.
Estimates from 40 to 42 million.
That is half the size of millennials.
And Gen, I think they're calling it Gen Bravo because nobody likes beta is just starting now.
Meaning our economy is fried no matter what we do.
And you now have a large cohort of young, single, childless men.
joseph moulton
On which side, though?
tim pool
On both sides.
Now it's less likely.
I think a third of Gen Z men are leaning right, but either way, like Gen Z men largely are not having relationships and having kids.
Look, I was supposed to have a kid in my 20s.
That's human standard.
That's what all humans have.
But I turned, how old was I, 22 or 23 when the financial crisis happened?
So sleeping on couches, I didn't even realize at the time something was wrong.
I lived with like nine dudes, a bunch of college-age dudes in this massive loft where we all spent a couple hundred dollars because it was cheap.
And it was like six bedrooms and I was in the pantry.
Pantry was nice.
A door to the kitchen and a door to the living room.
And it was, I think, probably six by eight.
No, no, no, no.
It was probably eight by ten.
Not bad.
raymond g stanley-jr
It's a huge pantry.
tim pool
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Walk in, two doors, put some curtains up.
It was pretty cool.
We have parties.
I would put shelves at the doors and I'd sell booze.
But anyway, I was supposed to be working a job and having a family, but that was impossible.
And so even right now, Gen Z guys aren't doing this.
Rudyard Lynch talked about this.
I don't know.
You were talking to him earlier.
I don't know if you brought it up, but historically, whenever you get a large population of young men without children, you get war.
tate brown
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
raymond g stanley-jr
And then AI is going to take away all their jobs here in 10 years, five years.
tim pool
They cooked.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah.
tim pool
We cooked.
tate brown
Yeah, the one saving.
The one saving grace is that young, it's not a saving grace.
It's actually a very sad thing, but young men's like hormones are completely nuked.
So a lot of them don't even have the testosterone required to sign up for a full-blown civil war.
You're just going to get insurgents from the left.
That's all you're going to get.
The right-wing guys are actually healthy.
phil labonte
The one thing that I'm really surprised that, well, the one thing that I think we should expect as things escalate would be like more bombings because that was something that was really common in the 70s, in the early 70s, late 60s.
The weathermen and stuff, there were over a thousand bombings between 1970 and 1972.
unidentified
Wow.
phil labonte
And that's something that hasn't taken, you know, you haven't seen a lot of, thankfully.
But as thing, as tensions rise and you have people that aren't as suicidal looking to harm, you know, their political opponents, that's the kind of thing that I think we need to be concerned with as the next level.
If that does start becoming something that's common, then I feel like that's the next escalation or would be looked at as the next escalation.
tate brown
The reason we're not seeing it is there's three reasons.
The first is it requires coordination to some degree.
I know there's obviously lone wolves over the years, but it requires a degree of coordination with others.
Two is people are like not smart enough to assemble these.
I mean, I know you can follow directions online and stuff, but there's actually a lot of stories blowing them up in their house.
phil labonte
You can ask Chat GPT.
tate brown
I know that, but I'm saying people are blowing themselves in houses.
It's like if you look it up, it happens somewhat frequently.
And then the third is that the government's actually done a pretty good job of making it difficult to collect the materials you would need to put together a bomb.
phil labonte
Yeah, that's one thing that I think is a good point.
The base materials to do this stuff, like the government is actually watching for people that purchase certain things in order or whatever.
So that might be why.
raymond g stanley-jr
The fourth would be to your points, would be, and Phil's point that they are more suicidal, unfortunately, nowadays than they were back in the day.
Back in the 60s or 70s, 70s, you were saying they probably had more reasons to live, but nowadays they're sitting in their house all by themselves in the bedrooms on 4chan and Reddit.
And, you know, they, yeah, so their mental health is way worse.
tate brown
It's a bit grim, but someone made an important distinction: typically a shooter is planning on not making it the operation versus a bomber.
They're planning to go on the run and there's going to be a manhunt to find them.
So that's kind of the distinction: you're dealing with a death cult, and ultimately they just want to get out of this world.
They feel nothing inside versus a bomber.
There's like an ideology.
Like you think something's important enough to maybe try and do it again.
raymond g stanley-jr
It's like A Bushnell, you're talking about earlier today.
Oh, he's going to be remembered forever.
I'm going to get myself on fire.
Nobody's going to be able to do it.
tate brown
It's an important point.
The only thing on the left, the only thing they value from young white men is like martyrdom.
The only thing you can provide for the left if you're like a young white guy is like suicide for the cause versus the right.
They're just like, yeah, we can use you here.
We can use you here.
Turning point USA, we'll get you right in here.
It's like clockwork.
The left's like, you're going to have to kill yourself, dude.
It's the only way to contribute to the movement.
And so that's primarily why it's so far when they join.
tim pool
I'm compiling a list of politically motivated attacks 2025, and it's already the list that I've got is insane.
unidentified
Jeez.
tim pool
This is bleeding Kansas.
The crazy thing is, as we were mentioning, did you guys even know that in Maine, someone tried running over a CBP agent?
In Chicago, an illegal immigrant tried running over one of the ICE guys, so he shot him and killed him.
I think that happened in Florida, like a day later.
So all of these are happening on top of the political violence that's high level.
Then you've got the low-level riot stuff that often doesn't break to national news.
You've got the ongoing riots that are happening in Portland that they just started arresting these people.
It's been sustained for some time.
You had the ramming in New Orleans.
unidentified
Yep.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yes, that's right.
phil labonte
That was on New Year's or right around New Year's.
tim pool
Yeah, you know, we were going to go.
joseph moulton
January 15th.
tim pool
That's where my wife and I were planning on going to New Orleans.
And at the last minute, we changed our mind and didn't go.
And then we saw the news and we were like, we would literally be right there.
raymond g stanley-jr
And didn't that one young kid get run over by that old man up in Washington or something in an alleyway because he was Republican a couple of years ago?
I think we were Washington.
Remember that?
phil labonte
He got ran over for being a non-I don't know if it was Washington, but there was a kid that got up.
joseph moulton
Yeah, yeah.
I think the distinction, though, is like, as you were saying before, they're not organized.
There seem to be emotional outbursts, which, I mean, I had myself in the UK where we were putting up the flags, and some guy, literally, just some boomer, abandoned his car on the side of the road, came running over and tried pushing us off a ladder that was like, you know, two, almost three stories high.
Luckily, we spotted him and we were able to bail to the right, which was a grass verge rather than the left, which is a main road.
But if he'd have come up from behind, what was his plan?
He was going to knock us off.
We hit our head in the road.
One of us could have died.
He wasn't thinking.
It was an irrational, emotional moment.
I almost felt sorry for the guy because he got himself so wound up.
He's clearly so stuck in his head and sort of enthralled by this ideology that he feels like it's worth to just kind of crash out and break that mundaneness of his life up.
They do see themselves as these revolutionaries, particularly that sort of like boomer generation, which I saw the guy who tried assassinating Trump.
I think he was actually, did he get indicted or like charged?
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah, the Roth.
Yeah, he got poor counselor or something like that.
joseph moulton
It's like they grew up in like the 70s where they were the counterculture, that hippie culture.
They believed the world was going to be John Lennon's imagine.
It's just like, well, you know, reality check, it doesn't work.
The world's never going to be like that.
But in their head, there's still this like, they're sticking it to the man.
We're actually the counterculture is coming from the right, particularly in Europe.
And it kind of has happened.
Now it's become the mainstream.
raymond g stanley-jr
Imagine somebody.
joseph moulton
But again, going back to my previous point, it's not organized.
It's like, yeah, it's just like it is.
unidentified
Yeah.
joseph moulton
It is these lone wolf, like sad attacks of people who are probably pretty depraved individuals who actually just need help.
unidentified
Yeah.
joseph moulton
But how do you get help to those people?
Because they sit and they fester and it's all online.
tate brown
They need help, but they have nihilism, which is petrified.
phil labonte
They need help, but they have to be open to help.
joseph moulton
They don't believe they need help.
That's the problem.
phil labonte
Well, I mean, yeah, they're not open to being helped.
So if someone's not going to, look, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink, right?
You can tell people, look, here's here.
This will actually make you feel better.
This is actually, these are positive steps that you can do to not feel hopeless, to not feel like there's no meaning in life.
But that doesn't mean they're going to do it.
It doesn't mean they're going to take the steps that you're recommending.
And it's likely that they're going to be hostile to you for recommending it.
joseph moulton
Well, I'm saying like the left is already fairly organized, but they're not organized in a violent way, as far as we know right now.
Unless, I mean, we'll see what comes of this Charlie Kirk case.
Perhaps it was.
I know we saw people who allegedly had foreknowledge.
Perhaps it was.
Perhaps it wasn't.
We'll see.
If it is organized, that would kind of change the game a little bit.
tim pool
So this is the list that GPT gave me.
The New Orleans ISIS attack.
The Coventry, Vermont CBP agent killed by Zizians.
In May, a Jewish museum shooting from a pro-Palestine motive.
June 14th, the coordinated shooting of Democratic state legislators.
That one's up in the air because that one may have been personally motivated.
We don't know for sure.
Alvarado was the Prairie Land ICE Facility Ambush the same day.
Portland, Oregon was attacked on an ICE facility.
July 28th in New York, midtown Manhattan mass shooting at 3.5.
Was that really?
When was that?
Was that Trende Aragua?
Do you want to Google that search?
Google that?
raymond g stanley-jr
What do you say?
Manhattan?
tim pool
Yeah, July 28th, Midtown Manhattan mass shooting.
August 27th was the Annunciation shooting.
phil labonte
July 28th, that was the dude that ran into the, went up to the 33rd floor or whatever.
Oh.
Oh, right, right, right, right.
tim pool
The NFL thing.
phil labonte
Yeah, allegedly, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, the NFL thing.
But that was also a BlackRock building.
And he went to a BlackRock office.
unidentified
Oops.
tim pool
Yeah, right.
I don't believe it.
August 27th was Annunciation.
Auram, Utah, September 10th.
That's Charlie Kirk.
September 15th, political canvasser was stabbed.
Whoa, I didn't know that.
September 19th was the ABC station.
Whoa, really?
I didn't know about the September 15th attack.
And they're still missing a whole bunch.
joseph moulton
I still thought Curiosity included more than one perpetrator, though.
tim pool
I don't know.
The challenging thing is.
phil labonte
One of the attacks on the Ana ICE facility was like five people.
tim pool
It was Black Rock office that was attacked, right?
I forgot about that one.
phil labonte
That was in Midtown New York, yeah.
tim pool
Right.
And they said it was the NFL, but he was in the BlackRock office, and they're like, he meant to go to the NFL, I swear.
I don't know that I believe that.
What's the obvious?
So they are missing one of the ICE facility attacks.
joseph moulton
The cyber truck thing as well?
That wasn't Tesla.
tim pool
Oh, yeah.
They're forgetting all the Tesla stuff.
Where's all the Tesla stuff?
I mean, just...
raymond g stanley-jr
There's a lot going on this year.
tim pool
We need to get a comprehensive list of all of the terror attacks for this year so we can have this in like a Google Document database to actually start tracking this.
Because this year's been insane.
The terror attacks on Tesla.
What was there?
Like 70 of them?
raymond g stanley-jr
And the one guy blew himself up?
joseph moulton
Yeah.
raymond g stanley-jr
Reportedly, you know, the guy, the military guy who was like locked in cockred to walk in the first early committed suicide.
tim pool
Oh, right, right, right at the last minute.
phil labonte
Yeah.
raymond g stanley-jr
And it's all metal, so it didn't blow up anything.
It just blew himself up.
joseph moulton
What's interesting is that when you ask for these statistics, it's like there's no left-wing violent attacks.
I see that a lot.
I think there is a certain degree of when things haven't gone fatal.
Perhaps it's just been an attack on the street.
These things either don't go reported or like I've seen it by myself at like political rallies in the UK that a leftist might throw something at someone off a rock and it might hit someone that might get hurt, but they don't actually report it to the police because they're like, fix skin.
I want to handle this myself.
I don't trust the police.
I'm not going to file it.
So it'd be interesting to see the real numbers just behind this sort of low-level violence in the streets.
tate brown
Yeah, you watch Nick Shirley's video when he tracked the ICE raid in Minneapolis and they were going through the street and people were like pelting the cops with like trash and rocks and that sort of thing.
But since it was such a chaotic environment and ICE was just doing an operation, they're getting in and getting out.
There's not like a huge federal police presence.
They couldn't make arrest.
So all of those, I mean, maybe they followed up on it.
I'm sure they did.
But at least for what the public knows, all that wasn't counted.
It's like if you started counting all of these like just attacks on officers that are taking place during these ICE raids that we're seeing being documented, it would be outstanding the amount of leftist violence that's been.
raymond g stanley-jr
The cancel woman who punched one of the agents.
tate brown
Yeah.
raymond g stanley-jr
She's got in trouble.
I forget her name.
tim pool
Lamonica McIver.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah.
tate brown
Yeah.
New Jersey.
raymond g stanley-jr
So that's another, you know what I mean?
tim pool
Like, like, can we just stress this when we're, when, when we blame Gavin Newsom for his rhetoric and then the ICE terror attack, can we just point out like a Democrat in Congress punched a federal law enforcement agent, like literally punched him on camera, I think more than once.
tate brown
Yeah.
tim pool
So when they're, I'm just, I don't understand.
Like, why are we, I'm not even, I'm not even, I don't even, I'm not talking to these people.
You know what I mean?
They're coming on there being like, no, you understand.
We are not for this.
Like, shut up.
You elected this woman.
She went and punched a guy and then you lied and claimed she didn't.
You put her on CNN and CNN claims she didn't.
And we all watched the video.
This is insane.
tate brown
There's literally a slow-mo.
unidentified
Yeah.
tate brown
You can see the punch connect.
I don't know where that fish came from.
raymond g stanley-jr
Punch is like a girl, by the way.
tate brown
She does.
unidentified
Yeah.
phil labonte
I mean, it makes sense.
raymond g stanley-jr
All right.
tim pool
So so far.
raymond g stanley-jr
Are we at 20?
It's got to be close.
tim pool
The list is actually really big when you include all of the Tesla stuff.
So right now, and this is not even, this is only like 10 minutes.
One, two, three.
We got three in January.
We got six.
March was crazy.
Seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 20.
Oh, okay.
No, no, it's 24.
24 just on this list so far.
Is it more than, actually, it's more than that.
26.
Just on this list that I have so far is 26.
And I know it's missing some because I can think of more that it's not pointing out.
But I want to get this out there.
We need to make a comprehensive list because when you go through it, it's all leftist.
There's not a single instance that I can find of a Trump supporter going and committing some kind of terror.
It's pretty crazy.
Well, actually, not really crazy at all, if you think about it.
It's all leftists.
And it's in line exactly with the Liberal Democratic Party.
Hey, we have a statement from Comey here.
Let's play it.
Look at that.
There's Comey.
That's it.
That's a statement.
phil labonte
He's got makeup.
james comey
My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we couldn't imagine ourselves living any other way.
We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn't either.
Somebody that I love dearly recently said that fear is the tool of a tyrant, and she's right.
But I'm not afraid.
And I hope you're not either.
I hope instead you are engaged, you are paying attention, and you will vote like your beloved country depends upon it, which it does.
tim pool
He's right.
james comey
My heart is broken for the Department of Justice.
tim pool
Everything he said so far.
james comey
But I have great confidence in the federal judicial system, and I'm innocent.
So let's have a trial and keep the faith.
tim pool
Cut out the I'm innocent and let's have a trial, the whole statement.
I could ascribe that to Trump and everyone would agree with it.
phil labonte
Yeah.
I mean, the fact that he's blaming it on Trump when it was a grand jury, right?
Like this isn't right.
This isn't a directive by Donald Trump to say, go get that guy.
They presented evidence to a grand jury and the grand jury said, okay, we think that there's enough evidence here to indict.
So, I mean, look, if he feels comfortable going to trial, then, you know, bully for him.
But it'll go to trial and we'll see what an actual jury says.
joseph moulton
What other option does he have other than kind of letting it go to trial?
That's his best, it's the most pragmatic thing.
Not going to go out and say, I'm not innocent.
He's going to fight his case.
raymond g stanley-jr
They were really happy when the grand juries didn't indict other people.
They were like, yeah, then he get indicted because they were wrong.
Well, he got indicted, like you said.
So something going on there.
tim pool
You know, I hope everybody goes out and votes like their country depends on it because Comey is right.
What Comey did, these people are abject evil.
And my only fear in all of this is that Trump is not Superman.
My fear is that Donald Trump is actually a bit of a hothead.
And I think he is motivated largely by personal interest.
And we need to win.
If people like Comey and Nazilk get power once again, they are going to destroy this country.
And that's an understatement.
I hope you guys like Breaking Rocks because we've seen the way these people talk.
We saw what they tried to do.
We saw what they literally did.
They put Trump's lawyers in jail.
They said, if you even try to defend Trump, we will send you to prison.
phil labonte
The fact that they went after his lawyers should be something that makes people take notice, right?
Obviously, the far left, they're going to say, well, it was the right thing to do no matter what.
But the fact that they went after the people that are that he constitutionally has a right to a defense and the people that were there to provide that constitutionally protected right, they went after them and indicted them and charged them as co-conspirators.
That's beyond the pale.
So I don't, I don't.
joseph moulton
And if they're willing to do that to Trump in a very public-facing way, imagine what would go on behind closed doors, right?
Like we see it in the UK, these cases, which they're not high-profile people.
They're just, you know, guys on the ground, individual activists being pressured into a guilty plea of stuff they didn't do, and their lives are ruined.
And they're kept in awful conditions, sometimes kept in solitary because the general population is so hostile towards them.
We've got a huge problem with Islamic gangs in the prisons in the UK.
And if they find out you're a far-right racist or whatever they want to call you, they will kill you.
So you're not just going to a normal prison, you're in solitary.
And that could be a reality here where the with J Sixers especially.
Yeah.
tim pool
All right, everybody, we're going to go to your chats and Rumble rants.
So smash the like button.
Share the show if you do like it.
Thank you so much.
When you guys share, it really does help.
If everybody who watched this show right now shared it on social media, we'd be bigger than Jimmy Kimmel.
Actually, we largely are bigger than Jimmy Kimmel, but to be fair, he does get big hits on YouTube.
His Trump monologues get like a million to two million sometimes.
But it is what it is.
So rumble.com slash Timcast IRL for the uncensored portion.
But for now, we're going to grab your chats.
phil labonte
Before you jump to that, there's USA today about an hour ago was reporting that NORAD scrambled fighters to intercept Russian planes off of Alaska.
tim pool
That happened yesterday, too.
I thought that was just an I thought that was an echo.
No, what do they call that in Minority Report?
phil labonte
Yeah, I forget what it's called, but yeah, it might have been an echo.
But yeah, so they're, they're, you know, there's all this talk about the, the, I think it's whatever, all of the top generals and their staff coming to Quantico next on the 30th.
And there's also talk of, you know, conflict with Russia.
Russia's foreign minister, Lavrov, I think his foreign minister Lavrov is his name, but he was saying that NATO and the United States are already in a war with Russia.
And he says that's a good question.
It's true.
It's true.
But this is more just raising the tensions.
tim pool
Oh, the pizza index is through the roof.
phil labonte
Yeah, they're.
tim pool
Yeah, Hegseth has called in a meeting of all military personnel.
Like, let's go, baby.
unidentified
All right.
phil labonte
So maybe the stuff that's going on in the U.S. won't matter.
Maybe we'll have to.
tim pool
All right.
We got this from P.S. Oopie.
He says, DJT needs to do an address over all this violence and division.
He needs to come out and just call this what it is.
He needs to open, transparent, and make it clear that now is a time for choosing.
The left is doing all the violence this whole year.
And when Trump comes out and says that the left is doing violence, they go, how could you accuse us?
You're so divisive.
It's like, well, because you guys are shooting people.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah.
tate brown
Yeah.
He's been good on the issue, like better than the entire GOP, quite frankly, on the issue.
Every time he's had to speak on, he specifically addresses leftist violence.
Meanwhile, just find a soundbite from your senator, your congressman.
They usually dance around at the road.
Political virtual.
tim pool
Get out there and get in people's faces.
raymond g stanley-jr
Would it be beneficial to America if he came out and said, yo, let's just relax.
unidentified
Let's chill out a little bit, everyone.
tate brown
The right is already chilling and relaxing.
The left's killing.
tim pool
The right is literally going to Trump, being like, please, Trump, just enforce the law.
And then they were like, best we can do is a commemorative coin.
joseph moulton
When I was at the...
tim pool
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
That's a bad joke, by the way, because Trump's got these executive orders where he's saying, go after Antifa.
And I do like the idea of putting Charlie Kirk on a silver dollar side.
raymond g stanley-jr
That'd be sweet.
unidentified
Yeah.
joseph moulton
But I mean, like, when I was at the Charlie Cook Memorial on Sunday, speaking to people, all the speeches were like, we didn't burn down anything.
Look at the way we responded.
We responded in peace.
It's like, great.
And then people were expecting Trump to come out with something hard-hitting, and he really didn't.
But already, when I was speaking to it before, I'm like, do you think Trump's going to come out with anything?
They're like, no.
So they're already demoralized in that sense.
And they don't think J.D. Vance is even going to.
And these are the diehard people.
These are the people who are going to come to the events.
People flew from all over America to come here.
Some of them were pretty big donors.
And even they're like, he's not doing enough.
tim pool
Trump had a Gettysburg opportunity.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
He could have come out and said something very much like, you know, 250 years ago or whatever, several men fought against tyranny to birth this great nation, blah, blah, blah.
And then he could have said a young man was, but he kind of just went off the cuff and did his Trump thing.
joseph moulton
It's like talking about autism, Tylenol.
tate brown
Well, I mean, it's like we're talking about, we're discussing Civil War, all this sort of thing.
It's like the margin is actually kind of thin for Trump speechwriters.
Like, he has to actually be somewhat incisive with what he says because, you know, there's a lot of rider-dies.
tim pool
Fins up says, it's not rumors.
I'm pretty certain he publicly announced he's going to have the DOJ looking at Soros.
I do not trust Bondi at all, though.
She seems easily bought or she's just noticeably dumb.
I don't know.
Maybe that's why Trump likes her because he bought her and she's dumb.
So he's like, do it.
And she goes, okay.
I don't think so, though.
I think they know she's good.
phil labonte
Mike Davis actually was tweeting about that.
He's like, she's got more balls than all of the guys in DC combined.
And Mike Davis is, I mean, I feel like he's a pretty straight shooter.
tate brown
And like, at the end of the day, this is just an upgrade because they listen to Trump.
I mean, if you're new around here, we remember the first term, how that went.
It's like, hey, these people listen to Trump.
And then do you really want to go through another nomination process just to get someone that's going to be just as effective or whatever you think should happen?
tim pool
Leatherhead says, did anyone else see Alex Jones' channel is already deleted in YouTube?
Indeed, as well as Nick Funtes's.
And then YouTube issued a statement saying, wait, wait, we said we were going to unban people, but not yet.
And so I think they're actually lying and sent that letter to Jim Jordan just so that he would shut up.
And he posts it.
And they're like, oops.
phil labonte
All right.
tim pool
St. Miles says, Trump will have set the precedent to go after Democrats should they ever come into power.
Yep.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah, that makes a good point.
tim pool
All right.
Finz Up says, the difference is you have money to protect yourself and your family.
ICE agents don't have that same luxury.
Off the clock, they're on their own.
On the clock, their family isn't safe.
That's a great point.
How much money do you want in exchange for someone threatening to murder your wife and child and hunt you down and flay you alive?
How much money?
You give me that number.
I will give it to you and I will quit right now.
You let me know.
And then we can have you guys, like, this is insane.
The idea that there's any amount of money that anyone would accept to take these death threats is just, you know what?
Maybe y'all are right because it seems to be the general opinion that everybody has.
The money is worth it to have to live in a box.
raymond g stanley-jr
They've been saying this stupid argument for years and it makes zero sense.
tim pool
Max says, Tim, you're wrong.
These guys aren't like you.
They can't afford 24-7 security like you can to protect their family.
Okay.
phil labonte
My 24-7 security is myself.
tim pool
Let's try this.
I will give someone $1 million.
We'll make it a game show.
And then we have the entirety of the left.
There will be, you know, I don't know, 3,000 people online in any given day saying they're coming for you to kill you and posting your address, going on shows, lying about you.
And your goal is to figure out how to use that.
Oh, guess what?
All that money, it's going toward your torture security.
Your movement is restricted.
You can't travel.
You can't go to funerals, but it's okay because, you know, you have the money, I guess.
Was the money worth it?
I'm pretty sure that if you go to the average person and say, we're going to give you a million dollars, but you'll be hunted down and everyone will be trying to kill you.
They're probably going to be like, no, I don't know that I want that.
unidentified
I don't know.
tim pool
Some people might say yes and then immediately be like, the sword of Gamacles was too great and I regret my decision.
But I am seeing a lot of this, and I will make this wager with all of you.
I will donate all of my money to charity and quit tonight.
If that's genuinely how everyone feels.
Because I got to tell you, I am perfectly happy living in a bungalow.
I say van down by the room.
Now I'll say a bungalow down by the river.
I don't need that much money.
I can pay a couple grand mortgage, and I can easily do behind the scenes social media marketing work for, I don't know, 90,000 a year somewhere and be perfectly happy playing online poker or something.
phil labonte
You shouldn't let the chat decide because the chat is full of trolls.
tim pool
These aren't people trolling.
These are routine super chatters saying that I should accept that because I have money, I should have to live under the threat of death from the far left on a regular basis when I would much prefer not to have that risk at all.
And I'm being told that our own law enforcement who chose to go into direct conflict with terrorists should be afforded more protections than I. Or maybe that's not a fair assessment, but that I should accept the circumstances and the money that comes along with it will pay for the security while I'm restricted from,
man, when I was working for, like, when I was working for some of these other companies, like Vice, for instance, I got to fly, I was on a flight twice a week and 60,000 followers or whatever, getting paid six figures.
I didn't have anything to worry about.
I don't think people understand that.
But Charlie Kirk is dead.
He died.
They killed him.
You know?
joseph moulton
You do it because you love it, though, right?
Like, you do it because you feel like you have a sense of duty to speak about things.
And like, you know, from the moment you put your face out there, you know what the political climate's like.
You know that somebody's going to come and target you.
And that's something that you have to accept, I think.
I think like, you know, the money and everything aside and like the sort of notoriety, whatever, of course, past a certain point, you don't want to exchange your freedom for that and your sort of your personal safety.
But I think you knew coming into the game when you first decided to go and speak out, you were going to go get some backlash.
unidentified
Right.
joseph moulton
You didn't?
tim pool
No.
joseph moulton
When I went fully.
tim pool
I didn't start this as a partisan.
joseph moulton
Yeah, I know.
I mean, initially, but when you did kind of cross the Rubicon, so to speak, so I remember that when I used to watch you.
But took that transition, you must have.
tim pool
There was no transition.
joseph moulton
You must have.
Well, like, you weren't explicitly pro-Trump initially, right?
Correct?
Like, you saw the responses, people calling for Trump stuff even prior to his election.
You saw the response from the left towards these sort of more conservative pundits, people who were aligned with Trump.
You knew that they were vicious.
tim pool
I went skating at MLK Plaza in Berkeley and Antifud posted my picture on forum saying that I was a Trump supporter, whether I was or I wasn't.
I didn't go online and make videos saying, here's what's going on and here's how the news media works, so that Antifa would post my image and threaten to beat me up.
And then a bunch of people threatened to attack me until one guy said, lay off him and don't start fights at the skate park.
joseph moulton
But I mean, just being in the public realm in general, people like, well, like, someone killed John Lennon, right?
Like, John Lennon, right, but maybe it's not the best example because it's political side, but people will try and like kill celebrities for family society.
Being in the public eye, I suppose it does come with a certain level of calculated risk.
tim pool
I don't think when Charlie Kirk walked out in Orem, he didn't think he was going to die.
joseph moulton
I think he was fully prepared to.
I mean, they showed at the memorial, he said, thy will be done.
To God, thy will be done.
It was very religious thing.
Right, but he was willing to die for that.
That's why he remained on college campuses, despite having this multi-multi-million dollar organization, which was able to.
tim pool
That's kind of a crazy thought if you think about it.
Like, he was willing to die, and his wife and children were also there as well in this area where he has to have security is a great risk to him and his family for what he was willing to do.
unidentified
Yeah.
joseph moulton
And that's.
tim pool
I wish more people were willing to do that, to be cool, honest.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, I feel like it's incredibly hard thing to do, but those are the people who move civilization on.
tim pool
The founding fathers.
joseph moulton
Everyone has something to lose, right?
You have to go across the Rubicon.
You have to be a man of action.
Have to accept that I'm going to do something that is potentially going to make my life and the people I love's life very, very difficult.
But my love for my country, my love for my cause is far exceeds that.
I think that's the position.
tim pool
Like the founding fathers, yeah, very United States.
joseph moulton
Who most of them were very young men.
I think the average age of founding fathers is 22, something like that.
unidentified
No, no, no, no.
tim pool
Yeah, it was like late 20s, early 30s.
But Ben Frank was a little older, and then there were some younger guys.
tate brown
This one was like 18 or something.
tim pool
But there were some of the founding fathers, their children were captured.
One guy's wife was taken from him.
One guy's kid betrayed the family to serve the crown.
And, you know, there are men in this country who know that they will step into the fray and this will put not only their lives at risk, but their blood, treasure, honor, and family.
That's what the founding fathers were willing to do.
I wish we had more men like that in this country.
joseph moulton
I think it's a very Christian thing.
It's a very Christian thing of being able to, you're willing to die, and this is the whole death to the world thing.
It's easier said than done.
tim pool
But you don't do things that will increase your risk of death.
joseph moulton
Perhaps you do.
I mean, that's what St. Paul did.
That's what the apostles did.
They went out 11 of them died.
Yeah.
They were persecuted.
unidentified
I know.
joseph moulton
It's a horrible thing.
tim pool
No one should ever do anything that's going to put their wives and child at risk.
Even if they're law enforcement, they should wear masks.
joseph moulton
There's supposed to be some unit class of people who are that politics is reserved for them because they don't have any attachments.
This sort of like.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
These guys that are in ICE should wear masks and hide so that their families are not put at risk.
unidentified
Well, yeah.
joseph moulton
I mean, otherwise you're not going to get people to do the job.
I mean, Trump has come in on a policy.
tim pool
Some men are not willing to risk their honor, family, or otherwise.
joseph moulton
I'm in the UK.
I get ads to join ICE every single day.
I'm not even able to because I'm not a resident here, but they clearly don't have enough manpower, right?
To do this and already drop that manpower.
And the fact that a lot of the reason that the deportations aren't going as high as they hoped is I think it's a manpower issue.
That's why they're doing such a massive recruitment drive.
That's why they're doing that 50K signing bonus.
Trump needs to deliver on his electoral.
Yeah, 50K signing bonus.
unidentified
Yeah.
joseph moulton
And I think what's an ad for ICE now.
tim pool
I think people are saying that the logic there then that should be made obvious to everybody is we do not have men of action in this country.
The people, the reason why we need masks for ICE is because these men actually don't want to do the job.
They do not want to fight for their country.
They simply want the paycheck and they're unwilling to take any risks to themselves, their family.
They just want the money.
tate brown
I don't think they're going to be back on that.
They're putting their lives on the line.
They're going into like drug dens.
tim pool
They're going why offer them $50,000 to do that.
Like, why do you need to offer $50,000 to somebody to come and take this job to do it?
tate brown
Economy is terrible.
People got to get food on the table still.
They got to be able to provide for their families.
tim pool
My point is it's pretty dang simple.
If you're like, listen, I won't do this if there's any risk at all.
And I want $50,000.
It sounds like you are not someone who says, for my country.
tate brown
Well, they're still taking on a lot of risks.
The masks are so they can still do their jobs.
Like, it would be terrible.
It's more, it would be just terrible for ICE if their agents kept getting mowed down because they're not masking.
Like, it's like we're trying to get a job done.
We're trying to get all the illegals out, and masking helps push that goal forward.
That helps us get closer.
That helps us move the ball down the field.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
I'm just pointing out that if someone says, I don't want to do the job, how about 50 grand?
Sure, I'll do it, but can I wear a mask that no one knows who I am?
It's like, that's not somebody who's like, America will stand for eternity.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, that's protocol.
I mean, right now, like, I don't think it's a choice of the individual to not wear a mask.
I might be completely wrong, but I imagine that's a different argument.
I imagine right now it's protocol, but even if you do, like 50% of these guys, they are willing to have their face out there, take those risks, you're still going to diminish the force which is needed to go and get the job done.
tim pool
Do you agree with what I'm saying?
tate brown
I don't know.
I'm saying even masks are not, that's still like a very noble thing.
tim pool
I'm not saying literally every ICE officer hates this country and is looking for money.
I'm saying the officers that don't want the job but were offered 50 grand and said, okay, I'll take it, but let me wear a mask are the people who are just in it for the job.
joseph moulton
I don't think that's a good idea.
tate brown
I think they're people that that's just what gets them over the edge.
But I think signing up for ICE, period.
I'm not even trying to like do a raw raw chest beating to like dunk on people.
I'm just saying legitimately joining ICE as like a decision is very noble because it's an inherently dangerous job for the same reason police officers.
Like I don't think, I don't think it's like a terrible thing that the NYPD has a little bit better incentives.
Like makes sense.
It's a very dangerous city to work in.
Like you got to reward people for like the risk they're taking.
I mean, I understand, but it's also ICE is like not joining ICE is not great for your lifestyle.
Like you usually have to move to some pretty nasty communities oftentimes.
tim pool
What is most offensive to me about the general conversation is that, you know, I stumbled into this when I started making videos and doing this, I wasn't making money doing it.
I was losing money.
I left ABC Univision and I had savings and I was losing money to cover these stories to, you know, travel to travel to Sweden was a massive loss.
Then I started making YouTube videos at a massive loss.
I started getting threats from Antifa on the far left the whole time, losing money.
And it wasn't until like a year and a half later I finally cracked into the black and I was even.
And then I started working really, really hard and making more money.
And then with that, I had to hire more people, eventually bring on, you know, security.
Then I had to move, get away from the cities, all of which were ancillary to me just speaking out.
And then I'm told that, and this happens all the time, how lucky I am for it.
When I'm like, I just wanted to fucking live in a van down by the river, dude.
joseph moulton
But so, like, why did you do that?
Why did you change your uproot your whole life?
Do this in the red.
What was the rationale towards that?
Like, why?
tim pool
Because I don't care about money.
I care about country.
joseph moulton
Okay, so you put the country before the money, but did you not also consider like and other people won't?
tim pool
And I'm told I should have to while other people don't.
I ask for a few good men to stand up, wave the flag, and say, I will die for my country.
And then I'm told, no, Tim, no, Tim, you're wrong.
Other people shouldn't have to do that.
No one should take a risk.
They should do a job and get paid 50 grand to do it.
And I'm like, okay, maybe I shouldn't do this.
tate brown
This is not taking risk.
tim pool
They're just guys with a very simple job, which is risk to them is substantially less in the broad sense.
In the immediacy of the job of ICE, they face tremendous risk that I do not, which I have tremendous respect for, which is why they carry guns.
They have armor, protocol, APCs, helicopters, all that good stuff.
And that is an incredibly important job, and I'm glad people are doing it.
If the argument is in the greater sense, I should be willing to accept threats and death threats and all that stuff.
My simple statement was: maybe I shouldn't do this.
I'll make an AI channel with a VTOR.
joseph moulton
But I mean, so, like, these ICE guys are still, part of that risk is they get doxxed, right?
They're wearing masks on the job, but there is still a risk that, you know, someone speaks to somebody else.
He's an ICE officer and his dock still gets out there.
That risk is still there.
Wearing that mask is just risk mitigation.
The same way that if you have security, that's risk mitigation.
tim pool
Which is completely agreed.
joseph moulton
They're still putting themselves out there.
tim pool
Completely agreed, point taken.
And my point is, like me, Benny, Ruben, we should all ice our channels, make new ones.
joseph moulton
That's what we want to do.
tim pool
Okay, let me finish.
Ice our channels, make AI personas, masked, no names, they can share these messages.
The message is successful and we'll reach a broader audience, but then no one will know who we are and we'll be safe.
joseph moulton
If that's what you wanted to do, I'm sure you could do that today.
tim pool
Charlie Kirk would be alive, right?
unidentified
He would.
joseph moulton
And would he have the same impact?
Would he have reached as many people?
No.
unidentified
No.
joseph moulton
Of course not.
People buy ideas from people.
People want that parasocial relationship of, you know, going and watching your show, feeling like they know you, kind of growing that thought process with you, consuming the news at the same time as you.
That's a human interaction.
Like AI and faceless content can't replace that.
tim pool
These guys have successfully been able to do that.
Think there is a personality that got into this for the well, I don't think there's a personality on the right that got into this business hoping to form parasocial relationships with people so that people would like them and follow them.
joseph moulton
No, no, no, of course not.
That's not the intended effect.
tim pool
On the left, I think that's basically all of that.
joseph moulton
But I mean, like, like you see, when you were trying to get into the black, as you were discussing earlier, you were one, you obviously needed to work harder.
What are working harder consistently?
I imagine it's putting out more content, putting higher quality content out, and also sort of building your persona as an online figure, putting out more tweets, putting out more content.
Because that parasocial relationship that you create then leads to success, right?
Whether you're aware of that or not, that is the reality, right?
People know Tim Poole, right?
They want to hear your opinion on things.
They value you as an university.
tim pool
I understand that.
joseph moulton
I'm not saying you wanted that parasocial relationship from a new person.
tim pool
I'm not just going to be able to do that.
I am no Charlie Kirk.
I am no Donald Trump.
I am no J.D. Vance.
I don't want to be in charge.
I don't want to be a leader.
I don't want to run for office.
I don't want to have an organization backing me with tons of people.
I just have ideas and I wanted to talk about what I see.
And largely, I wanted to complain about how the media lies to everybody all the time and correct that.
And that's what I wanted to do.
And it is getting increasingly dangerous.
And I think that may be a principal component why I probably get more death threats than most other people is that I pull up the sources on every story, we break it down and then explain why this is fake from the mainstream media.
With no disrespect to the conservative side, they're largely just proselytizing conservative values, which is very effective and good for their side.
And I'm not saying it disrespectfully, but as a threat to the left, it is much less threatening when a man in a suit says, you know, Christ is king, here's why.
And they say, that's not going to sway any of our people.
But when I, an urban liberal from Chicago, say, here's the Wall Street Journal and the Hollywood Reporter proving the FCC did not play a role, a principal role in taking down Jimmy Kimmel and the narrative from the left is fake, they go, he's our shit up.
So kill him.
And then so, you know, I am wholly jealous to seeing how many people got to go to Charlie's Memorial.
And I'm like, I can't.
joseph moulton
Why not?
tim pool
Because the death threats.
joseph moulton
There were like so many high-profile people there.
That's security.
tim pool
Yeah, some of them had Secret Service level security and were backstage.
I was not afforded that privilege.
joseph moulton
You could have gone to the floor at least.
Like there was security all over there.
tim pool
I did not have.
joseph moulton
Carl Rittenhouse.
tim pool
I did not have.
I have a security team.
I have a security team that did an assessment that determined that the threats were legit and too serious for me to go to Phoenix.
joseph moulton
Okay.
Well, there were guys on the floor who didn't have any Carl Rittenhouse just walking about on that's amazing.
tim pool
What's your security experience?
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, I used to work in the security industry.
tim pool
You're former military and intelligence.
joseph moulton
You've got a team of like-I used to work with a company which did CPO tasks.
There would have been a risk assessment if that's the risk.
And the risk assessment was that you can't go in and fair enough.
tim pool
You recommend against travel.
Because certainly the event is secure, but we can't secure the city.
So we can confine you to your hotel.
That's the smartest and best way to do it.
And I said, that sounds miserable.
And they were like, you still have the threat risks from transport to and from.
We're going to bring food to your hotel.
We're going to check that for you.
And I'm like, this is crazy.
I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but I'm saying, like, you would have been able to, but it wouldn't have been a nice holiday.
You wouldn't have been able to go out and go to a bar and go have a drink.
Like, I completely get that.
tim pool
Yeah, and it's like 30 grand to do.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
That's, I can't afford it.
Which is abhorrent, right?
That's the reality that we live in in America and in the West in general now.
And that's a very sad thing, but it shouldn't deter you.
tim pool
And do you have $30,000 for me to hire security so I can do shit like that?
joseph moulton
No, but I feel like if you, if you have the resources to do it and you feel like it matters, well, that's kind of a personal adjustment call, I guess, at that point.
tim pool
It's not.
When we went to Des Moines, we were there with Vivek and I think Candace.
That cost $50,000, $60,000 in security.
We had swatted 15 times, and I think people don't realize this.
It never stopped.
Yeah.
We just have security now.
james comey
Yeah.
tim pool
We've got a security perimeter.
We have armed guards.
We have other security that I don't discuss.
We're getting robot dogs.
raymond g stanley-jr
I heard that was in the works.
I'm excited.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
I'm not trying to downplay the threat to your life, but I'm saying that if you kind of let them confine you to your spot, I feel maybe it's just kind of my defiance and I don't have a family in the way that you do.
That they win.
If you stop going to places, they win.
They're getting what they want, that threat level that's stopping you from meeting people, being on the ground.
phil labonte
No, what they want is for him to stop talking.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
phil labonte
So him continuing to do the show is making sure that they don't win.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
But at the same time, they don't want you to continue to be out mingling with people where you could get further organized.
unidentified
There could be other relationships you could.
tim pool
I think they want me to because that's where they can kill me.
raymond g stanley-jr
He gets the most off of online through YouTube and Rumble.
His furthest reaches.
tim pool
I don't think I get the most votes of everybody obviously.
Trump is.
raymond g stanley-jr
No, no, I'm just saying more like that.
On the corner of a street on Charlestown on a soapbox, you get more influence here than you do.
tim pool
There's a reason why I mostly just hang out casinos.
And people are always like, you know, I know not everybody, but people are like, oh, Tim's talking about going to the casino.
Yeah, it's because I don't die there.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
It's because pretty much the only place that I can sit down and mind my own business is a casino.
Because they all know me.
Typically, when you're a high-profile individual, you walk into any casino, security immediately flags you, and they got cameras everywhere.
So when I go to a casino, I can walk around without security and have to worry about it.
But when I go out in the street, you just don't know.
I mean, the incidents that people knew about, we had that year where we were swatted 15 notable times.
That wasn't the total amount that we actually had to deal with it.
People think that means cops are kicking our door every time.
It doesn't.
It meant that the cop were doing sweeps basically all the time.
One credible threat resulted in us evacuating the studio for three hours.
And everyone remember it was chair cast and it was 40,000 people watching in an empty room.
And then at one point, you see the little dog walk in and they did the bomb sweep.
And there are locations that we've tried to obfuscate through your typical legal means, which I won't get into detail on, but owning property through obfuscation to prevent security.
And they found us.
And we got swatted there and armed men with rifles came, surrounded the building.
And this is like, it's an incessant, constant thing.
We've had, I think, three instances of the bomb squad deploying robots because the tactics they use, there are means by which I shouldn't get into the full details.
Let me just put it simply that there are ways that these people use that force evacuations and bomb squads, legitimate, credible threats.
And we had people who are leaking information to anti-fund, far-leftists, infiltrators, really, really crazy, crazy shit.
And it's not stopped.
We just pay more and more money to deal with it.
joseph moulton
Well, I think going back to what we were saying before is that, you know, they want you to stop.
I think it is kind of making your quality of life so bad that you have to leave the house with masses about armed security and do all these like risk assessments before going anywhere.
And then at some point you might go, well, I kind of just want a normal life with my wife and kids.
You know, like that, that is what it is.
unidentified
So but it's also like it's incredibly difficult.
joseph moulton
I don't envy you at all.
tim pool
Don't layer on top of it the stop whining, Tim, you're rich.
Layer on top of it, stop being a little bitch.
joseph moulton
The cost of these things are far higher than the average person anticipates, I think.
tim pool
And I'd much rather live in a van down by the river.
Now I got a wife and a child, and we're, you know, there's going to be some more coming soon.
And so bungalow, middle of nowhere, some chickens.
I could do online work and easily, If I was doing standard marketing stuff, I'd probably make half a million a year working four hours a day.
With my understanding of internet structures and all that stuff, I could easily do consulting work and probably make way more doing something else than this.
And so the challenge is always, and as it has been, the intense security risk that we face is a tremendous stress.
And it's not just me, but largely my wife and trying to deal with a new baby.
And so one of the reasons why I'm going to be 40 and just had my first kid is exactly all the problems that I've discussed.
And then the challenging thing in all of this, and let me just be a whiny little bitch because I don't care what people think.
That's why I, unlike many other people, often just literally say exactly what I'm thinking, much to my own detriment.
But people will make comments and it doesn't mean all that much to me when people rag on me on the internet.
I got millions of followers.
But to point out, the people who have been constantly chatting things like stop being a little baby, Tim, start having a family, what's wrong with you, all of those kinds of comments, supposedly coming from people who are supposed to be on my side when the reason we're strained and struggling to do it is because people are trying to murder me.
And it's maybe we quit, shut it all down.
That way we can have a family and live a normal life.
Or we have to try and figure out how we balance making enough money to cover the cost of security so that we can live somewhere where we're not going to be murdered.
And then it is incredibly difficult to do that.
And so I've said it before.
You know, my wife's attitude is probably just, when are you going to quit so we can stop having to worry about dying all the time?
And I don't know.
It's like you layer on that there's a tremendous respect for all the people who join the Discord server, who are members, who do watch every single day, who buy the products we promote, who are very much into it.
And I look at that and it's not a human thing.
You know, when I see coffee sales, I go, wow, did you guys know we did 2 million in Casper sales last year?
That's not profit.
That's total sales.
Still really good.
And then I'm like, people really believe in us and care about what we do.
And that number is, it means a lot.
But it is just a number.
It's not an individual saying, you know, we respect you and appreciate what you do.
I do get those as well.
Don't get me wrong.
So largely what we have in terms of encouragement is knowing that when people believe in us, they watch our shows, they buy our products, they're saying, keep doing what you're doing, don't give up.
And that tremendously outweighs the negativity.
But the negativity is there, the stop being a pussy bitch, Tim.
What do you have to worry about?
You're rich.
And coming from like accounts that I know and, you know, insulting me and like not having a kid soon enough and me trying.
I would argue that most of the PR advice that I get from people is to pretend, fake it and shut up.
And that's why when you watch any other show, they never talk like I'm talking now.
No one will say this stuff.
raymond g stanley-jr
You're the only person who does.
tim pool
Yep.
And I get, it's bad for me, I guess.
Because what works business-wise in media, there's a couple of big strategies.
One, it's be fake.
Make a plastic persona that exists on camera and then be completely different off camera.
Whoever you are on camera is not who you are behind.
Once you're off, you go, you hide.
And I'm like, well, I don't know.
I don't really do that.
The other thing is who you are doesn't matter.
Say whatever you have to say to get clicks.
And that's principally the left.
That's what they do.
There are a few people on the right who have been going real ham at it lately, especially the Charlie Kirk conspiracies.
The views they're getting are massive.
But, you know, long story short, I get emotional when people are like, you know, you should experience the death threats and the risk to your family, which is 1,000 times greater than the average person, even in law enforcement.
And I'm like, I respect what law enforcement does tremendously.
I understand the threats against them.
But I just wish more people were willing to be like, I will not be threatened in that way.

We will see you all at rumble.com slash Timcast IRL in about 30 seconds.
Thanks for hanging out.
phil labonte
Was she fighting with Anna?
tim pool
Yes.
Jillian Michaels stormed off of this is this is the PBD women's show, right?
phil labonte
Yeah.
unidentified
Gosh.
tim pool
Ladies.
Ladies, wait, is this like...
phil labonte
It had to be over Israel.
It had to be Israel.
tim pool
I'm.
A real class player.
I'm ready.
Just.
We need.
I need a symbol of Timcast IRL.
What do we have?
The UFO.
Phil.
phil labonte
Yes.
tim pool
The UFO.
I'm going to give it to you.
phil labonte
Okay.
tim pool
I can't.
I can't with this.
All of the security stuff was one thing, but this is too much for me.
I don't want to be a part of this interview.
phil labonte
I don't know why Anna is taking on.
ana kasparian
The Kirk is being conflated right now.
There are conspiracy theorists who think Israel killed Charlie Kirk.
They have yet to provide a shred of evidence proving that.
Done.
End of the world.
We're not talking about that.
I am talking about something entirely talking about it.
No, hold on.
Let me finish my fing thought.
Okay.
The real issue here is that before most people even knew that Charlie Kirk was dead, you have Netanyahu giving multiple interviews talking about how, oh, using the fing moment for his own political purposes, like the fing fool that he is.
Let me finish my point.
Him killing Charlie Kirk.
Did I not just said that?
I literally just gonna make sure that you're gonna get a ton of money.
Let me finish my point, Jillian, because none of us can finish the damn point without someone else jumping down your throat.
I don't think that Israel killed him because there's no evidence of that.
But I had a problem with Netanyahu exploiting an assassination in this country for his own political means and purposes and lying about the nature of his relationship with Charlie Kirk because Charlie Kirk didn't like Netanyahu.
Just like any warm-blooded American shouldn't.
Netanyahu is a bad guy.
And he wanted to make it seem like, no, we were all great.
We were good.
We had a great relationship.
Little did we know behind the scenes all mean about how do we bash Israel?
This is not I'm not interested in this.
Okay, I know.
I know.
I'm with Jillian.
This is Israel.
Let me know genocide.
unidentified
Yeah.
Okay.
I fundamentally disagree with you about every show doing this.
ana kasparian
I'm sorry.
unidentified
Cool.
phil labonte
That kind of is how every normal person feels about people that have strong opinions about Israel.
tim pool
But it's like I'm with Jillian actually.
Like if every single conversation you just bring up Israel, I'm going to be like, you know, to be fair, I wouldn't quit on the spot.
I'd be like, you're doing Israel again?
Okay.
Let me know when you guys rap.
I'm going to grab a coffee.
And then I'd get up and walk out.
And they'd be like, whoa, you walked out of Israel.
Well, I mean, we talk about it every single night.
I don't think you need to hear my thoughts on it again because I'm just going to say the same thing.
I largely don't know.
I'm not super interested.
I'm going to go grab a coffee.
phil labonte
We get the same thing here.
Like, people constantly are saying, you know, like, how come you're not talking about this?
How come you're not talking about this with Israel?
Blah, blah, blah.
It's like, IRL is a topical show.
We talk about the news of the day.
If Israel is not in the news, that's literally why we fucking don't talk about it.
tim pool
It's not just that.
phil labonte
And it's never enough.
tim pool
Russia's in the news.
We didn't talk about Russia.
phil labonte
Fair enough.
tim pool
Israel, there was some news about it.
It's because we're talking about domestic issues that affect the American people.
joseph moulton
I mean, I think the one clip which gets you guys the most flack is the one where you're talking about Epstein.
You said he's working for the Canadian.
tim pool
That's fake.
That's a fake clip.
Of course.
unidentified
Is it?
tim pool
Yep.
joseph moulton
I had no idea.
And I thought, does me think about it?
unidentified
Well, I'm assuming that's the one where it might look bad on the Saudis.
joseph moulton
It might look bad on the Qataris or something like that.
tim pool
Oh, I think of a different one.
That's right.
joseph moulton
Yeah, that's the one where they're like, oh, Tim's Bolton paid for.
Because I mean, like, I personally think.
tim pool
Oh, no, that's right.
joseph moulton
I mean, I look at the Epstein thing and I go, yeah, well, he clearly has messaged connections.
My brain wouldn't jump to that.
tim pool
It's a fake clip.
It's a fake clip because we played a clip.
Dan Bongino was on the show, and he said that Epstein was some kind of Middle Eastern intelligence.
And then we all started busting out laughing.
And I was like, oh, Middle Eastern, huh?
Oh, it was like a fake, there's a fake clip that's shared by the anti-Jew crowd where we're talking about the U.S. Liberty.
And I said something to Ian like, whether it's a false flag doesn't matter because the instance itself will be utilized by its supporters and denounced by its detractors.
So, and then they cut it and edit it in a way to where there's like a pause and we're like, you're like, you can't talk about that.
raymond g stanley-jr
And they paused it for like a minute.
tim pool
They put a fake pause in.
unidentified
Right.
Yeah.
tim pool
Okay.
Ian brought U.S. Liberty.
Oh, be careful about that one.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
And then he was like, something about a false flag.
And I was like, right, the problem with false flags is supporters will always believe it and detractors will always deny it.
So the issue is it doesn't matter if it's actually a false flag because proving it won't change the minds of those that want to use it.
I mean, like, biological answer.
joseph moulton
Like I said before, it's a topical show.
It's something from like 50 years ago really going to begin to change the American mind or either going to be relevant in today's politics.
phil labonte
Oh, people are constantly spamming the chat with USS Liberty.
unidentified
Yeah, well, I mean, because it gets the reaction.
joseph moulton
Like, that's wrong.
And it is an important thing that did happen.
unidentified
But I mean, like, there's enough people who have a hard time.
tim pool
That's Pakistan.
phil labonte
Huh?
tim pool
That's Pakistan.
joseph moulton
What's Pakistan?
tim pool
The comments largely about Israel come from people from places like Pakistan and Qatar.
Well, I know.
I can look at it.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
Yeah.
So it's not all of them, but we can look at our analytics and we're like, oh, yeah, look at that.
Okay.
What I think is largely happening is and this is not just my opinion.
There have been reports on this.
One, there is the more conspiracy theory that Qatar is paying people.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
I don't think that's true.
And, you know, they inject me into their conflict when I asked Netanyahu if he had any evidence that was the case and he brushed it off.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
And then I was like, okay.
And then some pro-Israel outlet wrote, Tim Poole claimed Cutter is funding this.
And I was like, no, the fuck, I didn't.
I said, we have heard this claim.
Is there any proof you have that this is actually true?
But people don't know what journalism is anymore.
Like when I asked Elon, now that Antifa has been designated a terrorist organization, will you remove their accounts?
I had left and right saying, Tim, no, don't advocate.
And I'm like, I fucking asked a question.
Is he going to take enforcement action now that they're terrorists?
But people don't understand that distinction anymore.
So what I think is happening, there's been reporting.
There are people in India, Pakistan, Malaysia, et cetera, that watch American content on YouTube.
Of course.
And if it's anti-Israel, they're going to watch.
So there have been some personalities who I won't name that everybody keeps talking about how they've generated a large Middle Eastern audience.
And so they're careful about what they say that might be bad because you make a lot of money.
And then you take a look at the metrics and there are certain personalities that defy metrics.
And you're like, that's interesting.
The times they post, the views they get.
Yeah, it's probably because their audience is largely outside of the United States.
I think that's true of a lot of the comments on X.
And that's why we've all, like the America first people, have been saying Elon should create a country filter so that we're only getting opinions from people in the United States.
And then we'll know how many people actually care about Israel.
But I think the easiest piece of evidence as to how it's not America is that it's pretty fucking weird when like the news is Charlie Cook's assassination and then you get spam-blasted chats about Israel.
And you're like, guys, no one in this country is talking about Israel right now.
Why are you?
joseph moulton
I mean, you've got the Nick Fuentes crowd as well.
I mean, like, he can generate hundreds of thousands of people who are like, who will, who are Americans largely, who will also post that.
So I think, I'm sure the numbers are like inflated between the Pakistan thing.
tim pool
You think Fuentes' audience is all Americans?
joseph moulton
No, no, no, of course not.
But I mean, even someone like Alex Jones, who's taken a very anti-Israel stance, Tucker to a degree as well, Candace Owens, like they have definitely changed the American right towards actually being like, hang on, Israel is a problem.
Why are we counting them?
tim pool
I think there's two things.
TikTok has largely made Gen Z anti-Israel.
And I don't care.
Where do you think opinions come from, right?
It's the cultural systems and the media that we consume.
And TikTok, we have the data from October 7th into the end of October that it appeared there was an algorithmic switch which began to promote anti-Israel sentiment.
Following October 7th on TikTok, it was like 80% pro-Israel, 20% anti-Israel.
And then within the span of like two days, it inverted and increased tenfold on the anti-Israel side.
joseph moulton
Do you think that was just because the engagement was higher?
tim pool
That was indicative of an algorithmic change.
joseph moulton
Do you think the algorithmic change was just like one of pure numbers where they're like people do engage with this stuff at moment?
tim pool
Someone at TikTok would have to have pressed a button for those numbers to make sense.
Okay.
That was the general presumption.
Otherwise, I track all the algorithmic stuff on all the platforms.
We go over the reason why people say unalive is because we can see the direct results in everything we do and how it's impacted.
On YouTube, you can tell when they change the algorithm.
It's overnight.
Because any minor change dramatically affects everything about your channel.
It's never really slow.
And so the presumption is, and I don't think it's guaranteed fact, but the presumption is based on the switch, it looks like TikTok intervened and said, invert it.
This triggered Democrats to join Republicans.
Republicans initially were like, ban TikTok because it's censoring conservatives.
All of a sudden, Democrats got on board.
Why?
Because TikTok went against Israel.
TikTok inverted the algorithm.
Democrats immediately flipped the fuck out.
And then we got a bipartisan ban of TikTok, all because they were trying to defend Israel.
And so, what ends up happening with TikTok is Trump ends up saying, no, let it stay because there's this, the presumption is there's this Republican billionaire who's an investor in it.
And it's like, don't ban it.
Let's just change it.
And so you have young people who have been on this platform that Democrats and Republicans intended to stop because it was anti-Israel have now been consuming media for two, three years off of this anti-Israel sentiment.
And now Gen Z is largely anti-Israel.
So when I look at Tucker and Candace and I see them, like Candace, for instance, is putting out a lot of these videos without directly saying it's Israel.
But the general sentiment everyone has is she's implying Israel did it.
It's because you have Gen Z that is 24% supports Israel.
So presumably it's like 70 or so that does not.
And then you have global audience, of which globally Israel is not that popular.
joseph moulton
Of course not.
tim pool
So if you are trying to maximize viewership, you're not focused on America.
You're focused on a general broad audience.
joseph moulton
Well, I think the whole AIPAC thing as well, though, I mean, that is bipartisan.
Like the AIPAC has huge amounts of sway over the Democrats and the Republicans.
And I think people are looking at that going, well, how does this foreign lobby group, which technically isn't considered a foreign lobby, why is it have so much influence?
And I think that it then gets perpetuated because people don't discuss it.
You think APAC's fake?
tim pool
No, I think APAC's real, but I think the idea that they're outsized in their influence, I think their influence is commensurate to their funding.
I think APAC is APAC.
I think I have no problem with them registering as foreign agents.
I think that they do have a substantial amount of influence.
But I also don't understand why people bring up AIPAC, but they don't bring up the China lobby, which is, I think, 40 times bigger.
The China lobbies.
That's the problem I have with it is that people go APAC.
And I'm like, before we get to APAC, we've got the China lobby.
We've got all kinds of lobbyists.
Well, I'm talking about foreign interests.
And I have no problem saying nobody should be dual, no one, no one in Congress should be allowed to be a dual citizen anywhere, all that stuff.
FARA registration, all that good stuff.
But back to the point of this show, I agree with Jillian in that, like, dude, shut the fuck.
Oh, my God.
Like, talk about Israel when Israel's on the news.
Criticize Israel all you want.
Please, I encourage you to do so.
I want to hear more about the bad things they're doing.
And I appreciate you bringing that up.
But when it's every fucking day, Charlie Kirk got assassinated, and the first fucking thing we see from people is Israel did it.
I'm like, shut the fuck up.
I don't know if it was the guy they're claiming it was.
We don't know for sure.
Maybe it was the shooter in the bush.
Maybe it was the shooter in the window.
Maybe it's the guy with the palm pistol.
Maybe it was the old man in front with the secret gun.
Maybe it was Bridget McCrone in the trapdoor.
That's what Fuentes said.
I don't fucking know.
But I'm with Fuentes on this one.
Can we stop the conspiratard shit?
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
Anyway, we got to go to callers.
Let's start with the dictator.
What is up?
phil labonte
Tupty.
unidentified
Hey, thanks for having me like, oh, guys.
phil labonte
Hey, doing it now.
How are you?
unidentified
Yep.
Pretty good.
So first, I just wanted to say I agree with everything that Tim has been saying tonight, except for the part about giving up.
But otherwise, yeah, I agree with everything that you've been saying.
Absolutely.
But while we all are, while we are all concerned about the leftist terrorism and everything else that's going on right now with just the left in general, I just wanted to come in here and say how and ask, like, considering everything we have seen going on across the country,
or in, sorry, in across the, across Europe and the UK, when will Americans realize that it's time to wake up and get rid of Islam in this country?
We're going to still have that issue to deal with, even if we get rid of the left.
phil labonte
I don't know that anyone can put a clock on that.
And as long as there's not a critical mass, I don't see that happening.
tate brown
Yeah, I don't think like Islam's like an existential threat to the US.
I mean it could be one day, but um it's like two less than two percent of the population.
It's really concentrated in like four cities.
Um I agree it's a problem.
Like I don't want I don't want to live in an Islamic country.
Like I think Islam's a pretty you know degenerate religion, broadly speaking.
I mean their countries are proof.
But yeah, I don't think they're like really anything.
Like I think the Republican Party specifically uses it as a carrot on a stick to like scare people.
And I'm just like, it's not really existential in the US unless you live in Dearborn, which it is a problem there.
And you can mop it up pretty quickly.
Like, I don't think, I think the left is a much bigger issue.
joseph moulton
Texas, it's not the U.S. huge states.
raymond g stanley-jr
So real quick, they have huge things, the biggest mosque and stuff.
And they've been building cities in Texas.
Yeah, it might not be an existential threat, bro.
But LG gays weren't until they are.
tate brown
Well, Islam isn't an existential threat.
Third world immigration would be the threat there because it's equally as big of a problem.
They build these big monkey statues and that's like a Hindu thing or something.
So it's like Islam is just like a factor of the bigger problem, which is like unchecked migration from the third world, like destroying.
joseph moulton
I think the difference between, she mentioned the UK there as well.
The UK has a massive integration problem.
I know American Muslims and they're actually very well integrated in comparison to the UK where they just choose not to.
There are Muslims in the UK who certainly do integrate, but there's a massive problem with the fact that they don't and they sort of take over these areas.
Similar to what you might be seeing in Dearborn.
You're a much larger country.
You're not bringing in mass Islamic migration on the same level as we are.
You're also not propping up the sort of social services to facilitate it either.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yes, we are.
joseph moulton
Are you?
Oh, yeah.
raymond g stanley-jr
We're given all kind of illegal immigrants and how money they want.
joseph moulton
I'm not so well versed, but I mean UK is like next level.
tate brown
They give you prime real estate in London.
joseph moulton
The problem is that the values of an Islamic civilization, if you're a real Muslim, you're a real Sunni Muslim, Shia Muslim, you believe in the Sharia, you have to.
If not, then you're just being intellectually dishonest.
And that religious law will trump any secular law that isn't in the country that you move to.
It is an intellectually dishonest position to argue otherwise.
You can speak to any well-versed Muslim scholar.
That's fine.
They believe in that religious law.
But that will never ever be compatible with the laws of America, unless they change it.
You'd have to completely repeal the constitution.
In the UK, we don't have a constitution on the same level.
So we're seeing it take more of a hold because if you're thinking as an Islamic community, you think, right, we want to gain political power, America wouldn't be the nation that you would do it in because you have the constitution.
Look at somewhere like the UK, where all you've got to do is get a majority in parliament.
You can pretty much do most things without the king intervening, which the king definitely isn't going to intervene.
He seems very sympathetic.
But it's certainly a civilizational threat to Western civilization.
There is a huge amount of differing values.
And in Europe, we're seeing that on the political stage.
And even when they've kind of made this Islamic leftist alliance, it's falling apart now in the UK because of stuff like trans rights and the status of women and these sort of social issues.
So it's very thin end of the wedge, but as a Brit coming here, the last thing on my mind is, oh, is Islamic immigration some threat here?
To me, it's a non-factor.
You've got much bigger fish to fry.
But it is worthwhile keeping in the back of your head going, okay, well, if you bring in, let's say, there's some deal over Gaza where they're saying, you know, the US is going to bring in, I don't know, let's say half a million people from Gaza, that is going to radically change the US, but also change their strain of Islam too.
You know, when these people get into the mosque, these more radical ideas come and these people who were integrated can actually end up radicalized, which we see we saw in the UK when we had the refugees from Syria coming in.
They were coming into mosques and masjids where they were otherwise fairly well integrated and these radicalized ideas began to disseminate.
So you do have to be careful.
You definitely got to be aware of it.
I mean, obviously, this country that's suffered at 9-11, right?
You've got that's always going to be in your sort of cultural psyche.
raymond g stanley-jr
Israel did that, so I don't know.
unidentified
Oh, did it?
Okay, right.
joseph moulton
Bush did it.
Hoo-woo-hoo did it.
unidentified
Yeah.
phil labonte
Does that answer your question?
unidentified
I mean, I didn't think people would agree with me too much on that, but I just want to remind everyone: Islam is a problem.
And while I fully disagree, I know that we have bigger fish to fry at the moment, but eventually we got to deal with the issue of the people who cause 9-11.
phil labonte
Do you think that Tate has a point, though, if you take care of immigration more broadly, the issue of Islam kind of is taken care of when you take care of immigration?
Or do you think that there's already enough people here that ascribe to the religion where they will eventually outbreed American, you know, Christians or agnostics or what have you?
unidentified
No, I don't think that illegal immigration or getting rid of all the people from illegal immigration will fix the threat of Islam in America.
A lot of the people that are in Michigan are likely here, Michigan and Minnesota are likely here, are likely here legally.
And yeah, they will outreach, outbreed us legally.
Except for us Catholics.
tate brown
Yeah, I was saying immigration broadly, like legal, legal immigration.
This is why legal immigration is much more of a threat to a large degree than illegal immigration is because legal immigrants stay.
And so if they come and they're Muslim, because like I totally agree with you that it's like a threat to the way of life of the United States, they can stay and illegal.
You can get out like pretty easily with the whip of a judge's pen.
But a legal immigrant, that's a much, that's a much more rigid process.
You're going to get a little mean.
joseph moulton
So I mean, something in America where like you've always had a historically very good integration process, but people still hold on, like, you know, look at the Italian-American community.
They still hold their cultural values there.
So I think that, you know, no matter who's going to come in, you can't expect them to ever fully integrate the way that someone who came on the Mayflower is.
You've got different cultures within the American culture.
You've got different subcultures.
And Islam being a religion, you're always going to have that risk of even if they do kind of integrate, they don't sort of fully follow the Sharia.
It's always going to be there in the back of the back of the mind.
And in the same way that you can have some fairly unradical Christian groups who, you know, over time, you'll see them become more fervent and kind of come back to the faith and actually begin living out their moral values.
It's always there.
It's sort of a latent thing.
raymond g stanley-jr
Just with the, I did enjoy the one time where the Free Palestine rally parade, they got, and they butted heads with the LGG people, and they're all arguing and yelling at each other.
tate brown
Yeah, they can't even integrate into the left, let alone America.
unidentified
Yeah, thank God they didn't mummy each other on rooftop.
tate brown
True.
Very true.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
But I mean, like, they do move as a monolithic force, right?
There is the idea of the Ummah, the international Islamic community, which is why you have this response to Gaza.
It is a lobby in and of itself, whether it's a social lobby, and it also has a lot large amount of financial backing as well.
It will always be a fifth column in your society.
You can't integrate an Islamic community into a Christian society.
Something's got to give.
One is living under the other.
The de facto has always been like that throughout history.
And same with sort of any religious group.
Even in the UK, the Catholics and the Protestants couldn't agree enough that one was living under the other.
You take something like Islam, they're so radically different from different denominations of Christianity, it's not going to work.
You're not going to have a truly integrated population there.
tate brown
Good point.
Good way to put it.
phil labonte
So you want to add anything or you want to shout anything out?
unidentified
Yeah, I could add that stuff on there, but I don't want to take it over the show.
It's on my show.
I just wanted to say a quick longevity.
Islam is that the issue, and you know, Protestants is that Protestants are to Catholicism what a peaceful Muslim is to Islam.
As a Catholic, I would agree.
And to that, I would just like to say, follow me on X.
I am the dictator Xisms on the X.
And otherwise, I got nothing else in choking right now.
So I'll talk to you guys later.
tim pool
Thanks for calling in.
joseph moulton
Thank you.
raymond g stanley-jr
Cheers, man.
tim pool
So I just want to quickly apologize for being on my phone just there.
Not only did I receive a very important and good text, which I have to, it's important work stuff.
People would be happy if we can figure this one out.
I'd also want to add, we were trying to get this really big show for tomorrow, and we couldn't make it happen.
And so I'm just trying to make sure I have the details because we had requested that Elijah Schaefer, Myron Gaines, and Nick Fuentes come on the show.
raymond g stanley-jr
Holy moly.
tim pool
And Nick, like I said, no.
And Elijah was like, well, I'll go if Nick goes.
And then my understanding is that they're not going to make it.
So that's, I just, because we're waiting to the last minute, my general understanding is he's not going to make it.
It is unfortunate.
But tomorrow morning, we're discussing the Charlie Kirk conspiracy theories, and we wanted to have Elijah, Myron, and Nick Fuentes for their views.
joseph moulton
Would have been a good one.
raymond g stanley-jr
Aren't they all one-sided views?
tim pool
Oh, Nick is against the conspiracies.
raymond g stanley-jr
Okay.
tim pool
Yeah.
And the reason why I thought it'd be very interesting is because there's the Israel did it side, and then there's Nick Fuentes saying Israel did not do it, which is a very interesting take considering his position on Israel.
And I guess he didn't want to do it.
joseph moulton
I mean, he has been traveling around a few.
He was on Russell Brand, and then I think he was over.
raymond g stanley-jr
He was on Pat.
Yeah, he was on your data at the end of the day.
phil labonte
Nick's probably just being a cunt, to be honest with you.
raymond g stanley-jr
Yeah.
tim pool
Oh, he just owes me no favors.
joseph moulton
It would have been a good one.
raymond g stanley-jr
This wasn't the first time, too, that the people in chat would have got what they wanted.
phil labonte
All right.
tim pool
Let's bring in Olivia Dasovic.
raymond g stanley-jr
Oh, what's up?
tate brown
Friendly fire.
unidentified
Hey, guys.
Hello.
What is this?
phil labonte
Is he asleep so that way you're calling in to talk smack about him?
Is that what it is?
Because I'm going to tell him.
unidentified
Yeah, even though he's right next to me, I am about to talk mad shit about him.
So my question's for everybody.
So a lot of the recent violence we've seen from young people were clearly radicalized before they were 18 on social media platforms.
If we can't implement a law, because I think there's been a lot of attempts to do so, what should parents be doing to know more about their children's behavior online?
And how can we prevent our kids from going down that path as well?
tim pool
Don't leave them phones.
phil labonte
Don't let them have phones.
And if they do have phones, spyware, a lot of spyware.
Monitor what they're doing.
Don't let them have a phone that's private.
Like, if you're 16, you don't get a private phone.
I don't care what anyone says.
tim pool
I just want to add like every night that camera autofocuses on Charlie and Vosh and blurs out Phil's face.
phil labonte
There's nothing wrong with that.
It softens my crow's feet, is what it's like.
raymond g stanley-jr
As a parent of 14 children, my advice would be.
phil labonte
14 children?
raymond g stanley-jr
Yes, believe it or not.
Would definitely be, I've got nothing, but don't give them phones.
Don't let them on the internet.
I mean, internet, yes, but phones is tough.
I mean, I don't know what you're going to do.
But by the time you have babies, there might be 15 years down the road.
So it might be, you might be having brain chips by then.
So good luck.
unidentified
Thanks, Raymond.
He's such a cheery dude.
raymond g stanley-jr
I mean, it's the future's real.
unidentified
I'm sorry.
phil labonte
I mean, look, yeah, like, remember, the parents are the parents, right?
So there's going to be things where the state can step in if you're abusing your child.
But like not giving, not allowing your child to have a private cell phone or phone that connects to the internet that they can do whatever on.
There is nothing that the government's going to do about that, right?
Like you are the parent.
You will be providing all of the things for that child.
Like back in the day, I don't know if this is still something that's normal or not, but like if I like my parents were like, don't close the door to your room.
And I didn't get to close the door whether I liked it or not.
There was no privacy.
My dad could walk into the room whenever he felt like it because it was his house.
And the room that I was in wasn't my room.
It was his room that I got to keep my stuff in.
And this idea that children get to tell parents, this is my room.
I have privacy.
I need that.
You don't have shit.
When you're 18 years old, you can move the fuck out.
Then you can pay for all of your fucking shit and then you can have privacy.
But if you're living under my roof and I'm paying for all of your stuff, you can take that privacy shit and shove it up your ass because it ain't happening.
And so you should know what your kids are doing.
You should know what they're talking who they're talking to.
They shouldn't have anything on their phone that's locked up.
You should know what apps they're using.
You should know their passwords for all of their social media accounts.
If they have them, I don't think they should have them until they're at least 16.
tim pool
No computer, no phone, no internet.
phil labonte
Yeah.
I mean, I do think that like there might be an argument when they're like 16, if they get a job, they can buy their own phone or whatever.
But like until then, they get to use the computer in, if they, if they're going to use a computer, they get to use the computer that's the family computer that's in the den or in the living internet.
tim pool
At all?
None.
unidentified
Really?
raymond g stanley-jr
This is for all the people who chat in and say you're having babies.
Listen to this advice.
Nothing for anyone.
Your baby's good.
Nothing.
tim pool
Computer in the I would say they can have a computer at a certain age with no internet.
And, you know, I make sure it's got no internet because I know how to do that.
joseph moulton
Do you not feel like that's like handicapping your child?
So, I mean, I'm perhaps one of the few on the panel who completely grew up with the internet from being like young.
Like phone, like, like everything.
I'm 22.
phil labonte
What kid is better off because they have access to the internet?
Well, I mean, like, I. They're not smarter.
They're not getting better test scores.
tim pool
They're actually stupid.
joseph moulton
So I'll play devil's advocate.
tate brown
I'll back them up on that.
joseph moulton
I think it's about what values and what sort of work ethic and how you kind of teach your kid to use the internet.
I think you're going to handicap your child.
They're not going to be in touch with the cultural zeitgeist.
You might say, well, that's a good thing.
That's a good thing, right?
tim pool
That's one possible.
That's the con.
joseph moulton
However, they're not going to be able to be able to socialize and speak and understand people as well.
You have to know the opposing argument.
The second thing is I spent all my time just like reading, watching videos.
I actually was able to set up my own business just through being able to be online when I was like 14.
Just started running Facebook ads, right?
That was something I did off my own phone.
tim pool
When did you first get the internet?
joseph moulton
I was like the age eight.
tim pool
What?
Age eight.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
And you had no restrictions?
No.
I would call that lucky.
What we've seen from the data is that it phone use actually inhibits and retards kids.
It makes them.
raymond g stanley-jr
I mean, you're not.
tim pool
So my kid's not getting any of this shit.
I had a computer when I was a kid.
I had internet, but internet back then was very, very different.
My parents didn't have to worry about snuff films and midget porn.
Back then, it was like you'd go on AOL and you'd click a box and it would give you like nine options for like areas of AOL.
So I would go to the freeware section and look up the various video games and download them.
Or maybe I'd go to like audiophile.com where they'd be like the MP3s that are available today and there would be like six MP3s and it's like, I never heard those fucking songs.
I'll download one anyway.
And then you click it and it'll be like 14 hours to finish the download.
That was the internet when I was a kid.
So I got, I built my first computer when I was, I think, eight years old.
I got Windows 3.1.
My family had internet back when it was on DOS with CompuServe.
And you had to type everything in.
And I remember we got DOS shell and you could press up and down.
And then we had a mouse and you could move the mouse cursor around.
I was like, this is crazy.
I remember playing that fucking mind game from Apogee where you're a little guy in outer space trying to collect all the dumb little minds.
And Commander Keene.
Nowadays, the internet is pedophiles trying to get your kids on Roblox to say weird ass creepy shit to them.
And the problem I would argue with the internet is it's basically right now like telling you, dropping your kid off in downtown and being like, good luck.
And then walking away.
joseph moulton
Like that's that, that's one attitude towards it.
I mean, I'm not saying you shouldn't monitor your kids' internet access, right?
You certainly should.
And there's various different apps and different softwares which will have like hard blocks that you can.
tim pool
Even Wikipedia is a bunch of weird gay commie people.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, like, I was going to bring that up.
I used to do so.
We had a school computer.
Like, there was like an after-school company.
Your parents worked till six and they picked you up after.
All they had on that school computer was like games.
And the only other uncensored thing was Wikipedia.
So like the Wikipedia was far more interesting to me than the games.
tim pool
Yeah, Wikipedia is coming gay books.
joseph moulton
Well, you should just go through that, but I don't, I never turned out like commi and gay.
Like I just read things what they are.
phil labonte
Everybody knows a tall Asian.
joseph moulton
There's a lot of them in Beijing, actually.
There's a lot of them.
tate brown
I do want to like back up his point with something that like a lot of people miss is like the reason why Zoomers are so right wing is because of Internet access.
It's because we grew up on the Internet.
And the proof for this is why millennials are like Zoomers are not right wing.
tim pool
Zoomer guys are.
tate brown
Yeah, but we're the ones that are going to be actually involved in the menu.
tim pool
Maybe it's like 36% of Zoomers are right-wing.
tate brown
Among men, it's much higher.
tim pool
In the United States, the reason why it's like 36% is because more than half of men are right.
More than half of Gen Z men are right-wing, and almost all of the women are left-wing.
And the internet is the reason why they're left-wing.
raymond g stanley-jr
Men, if the women weren't online, they won't be fucking retards.
joseph moulton
Well, women, well, that's just how the women tend to what I see is that they're not as politically involved as you think.
It's more political.
It's more of a group thing, right?
tim pool
Yes.
joseph moulton
The moment, like, I've had it myself in relationships where, like, a woman, she doesn't agree with your politics, but she likes you.
She knows she has a good, good thing going with you.
Her politics will just move towards whatever yours is.
is to whatever is in her best interest, right?
That's generally how most people...
tim pool
Women operate politically based on their social circle.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
So when women go online, they see what other women do and they adhere to that political worldview.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
Men don't.
joseph moulton
You balance that out with a healthy social life, right?
Where they're in the real world, the internet becomes secondary.
tim pool
That's not what's happening.
What's happening is these girls are taking like the girls are taking the internet culture and bringing it to the real life.
And then girls are getting bullied and it's causing a bunch of problems and 14 year olds are getting breast implants.
raymond g stanley-jr
Dude, if you guys only lived without the internet in your life one time, you would understand where we're coming from.
tim pool
Yeah, I'm not going to listen to a dude who sings the hot dog song, bro.
tate brown
But the thing.
Yeah.
The thing is, like, but the thing is, I'm looking at older, older generations, and they like fumbled.
So it's like, I'm sitting here as a Zoomer and I'm like, okay, well, we're moving in the right direction.
I'm looking at like the so-called like, we grew up like one arts and everything.
But it's like, you're not base.
Yeah, yeah.
Like everything you inherited just got worse.
It's like bass is like my great-grandfather, who didn't grow up with any technology.
That's bass.
He fought in World War II, that sort of thing.
But it's like, I don't think growing up with the internet, I think it's been worse.
I think it's been worse from a political zeitgeist perspective.
It's like everything's just gotten worse until Zoomers is like, okay, now there's an escape hatch.
We can pull this lever.
joseph moulton
Clemen Gen Alpha's even more.
Clemen Gen Alpha is even more right wing than Gen Z.
And I've seen it myself.
When I've looked at some of these comment sections, I'm like, that kid's like fucking 12.
You know what I mean?
And he's coming out like the most bass shit.
Like stuff that's actually very well articulated too.
I'm like, wow, like, because it does allow people access to the knowledge which would be, which would previously be gatekeep behind institutions, or you're not old enough yet.
We're not going to discuss this yet.
So, what it develops is a very well-rounded individual.
tim pool
What percentage of those kids, though, are addicted to like midget-furry queer shit?
joseph moulton
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't think it's, I don't think it's as big as you think.
I think it's like isolated.
tate brown
I think a lot of these kids are pretty, like, still pretty normal.
I think there's like there's an incentive to like doom over young generations.
That's like been the case.
And I'm not denying that, yeah, there is like weird, like, furry tranny, whatever.
But, um, like, we interact with them.
Like, kids that grow up in like normal environments, they are turning out fairly normal.
It's the people that have something external that knocks them off course while they're a child.
The internet really rips them apart.
tim pool
Really, okay, no anime, though.
unidentified
Okay.
tate brown
Well, I think anime should be banned.
tim pool
They have a fun, but no anime.
tate brown
Anime is demonic.
raymond g stanley-jr
Like, no attack on Titans?
tim pool
Yeah, no, you can't have it.
raymond g stanley-jr
Okay.
tate brown
Anime should be prosecuted.
tim pool
No, I actually, I actually, I'm a big anime fan, actually, but I actually hate American cartoons more.
phil labonte
Yes.
tim pool
Like, Ed, Ed, and Eddie.
tate brown
Oh, that's my favorite.
tim pool
Ed, Ed, and Eddie should have been.
If I was dictator, I'd ban Ed Ed and Eddie.
tate brown
That's why I am the way I am.
phil labonte
Any Looney Tunes?
Any Looney Tunes made before 1945?
raymond g stanley-jr
What about Animaniacs?
phil labonte
Any Looney Tunes made before 1945 are great.
tim pool
Ed, Ed, and Eddie.
It was a show about three losers that everybody hated that failed every step of the way.
And the reason why I hated American cartoons was that it was always about failures.
And the reason why I liked anime was that you always had to fight to get ahead.
So, like, Goku, no matter how hard it got, he would always struggle and figure it out and try and get stronger.
raymond g stanley-jr
Always the haters too.
tim pool
Naruto was always really great because Naruto was a loser, outcast, orphan, and he became president, basically.
And he got stronger and stronger.
raymond g stanley-jr
He finished the end.
tim pool
He got that was like 15 years.
raymond g stanley-jr
I know.
I stopped.
unidentified
That's a good point.
tim pool
Yeah, aliens came, and then they went to another dimension, and who knows what the fuck's going on?
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, like, I think what's interesting about those cartoons where they are, they're unremarkable.
They're kind of failures, but they still kind of end up in these remarkable situations.
And like, what is Ed Ed and Eddie?
Yeah, and like a lot of these show, like, regular show and other one.
It's like kind of like, oh, God, fuck.
I like it.
It was always good.
I never thought it was like complete shit liberal.
tim pool
The main characters are detestable, arrogant shitheads.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but you're aware of that as a kid.
Like, you don't think, oh, I'm going to model my life off of these cartoons.
tim pool
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
I like Justice League, Spider-Man.
I like Dragon Ball Z.
So, like, for me, anime was because we had Dragon Ball Z and Telemundo.
So, you know, the only way to watch it was in Spanish.
So, like, when Vegeta was killing Napa, Napa was like, Porque, Vegeta!
I was like, I get this.
But you couldn't watch it.
And then I brought the Cartoon Network, but you had that cable, and I didn't.
And so I didn't watch a lot of anime growing up, but a lot of it is real fucking weird.
Real weird.
joseph moulton
I mean, Shawana went to Japan.
That's why you get these.
tim pool
They have masturbation stores in Japan.
We don't want any of that.
joseph moulton
No, no, no.
But I mean, they say.
tate brown
Lagoon Gallery.
joseph moulton
It is like segmented in Japan.
Like, you have these areas that are complete, degenerate cesspits, and then you've got this other kind of like pseudo-utopian reality in this other area.
It's like they do kind of corn it off, which is better than here, where like you'll have like some sort of country club, then down the road, you'll have some like weird sort of anime shop, like witchcraft stop.
Like things are just kind of like it's everywhere.
tate brown
Yeah.
raymond g stanley-jr
I've seen interviews on the street for women asking them if it's okay if their man cheat with them if it's with like a prostitute.
And they're like, yeah, it's fine.
tim pool
We definitely got to get the rest of the calls, but I just want to add one thing.
And I think American cartoons is like giving your child acid.
And I really mean it.
And anime is, it's almost like giving them acid.
But let me clarify.
I don't mean all.
Cartoon Network was really bad.
Justice League was really good.
Static Shock was really good.
I like those shows.
Batman Beyond was a little weird because it was in the future, but still good.
The Batman animated series, really, really good.
These were cartoons that had weird superhero shit and weird stuff, but the characters were adults talking to adults and talking about perseverance, honor, justice, integrity.
Spider-Man was really good.
And I look at some anime, and they have a lot of those things like Nairoto I thought was good in terms of that messaging.
And what messages do I want my kid to pick up?
Honor, integrity, perseverance.
Then you look at like Rocco's Modern Life.
Drug trip, meaningless, psychotic garbage.
You look at Cow and Chicken.
Fucking awesome.
I love cow and chicken, but what the fuck?
That's like that show is for 20-year-olds on drugs, not for children.
And the same thing is true for Animaniacs and all of these fucking shows.
But Olivia, did you want to add anything or shout anything out?
unidentified
I will take this opportunity to shout out my husband's show, Pop Culture Crisis.
You guys can find them Monday through Friday.
You guys know that Joe Mary's not there tonight, so I figured I'd take the opportunity.
And you can follow me at Olivia Jasmic on all platforms.
3 p.m. Eastern.
3 p.m. Eastern.
Thank you, Brett.
tim pool
Thanks for coming.
Ryan, thanks for coming in.
raymond g stanley-jr
That was a good conversation starter.
tim pool
All right.
Next up, we've got portential.
What's up?
raymond g stanley-jr
Porn tenth.
unidentified
Thanks for taking my question.
Today, Trump labeled Soros and Reid Hoffman as likely being paymasters behind organized terrorist groups.
What is the likelihood of this going through and charges being pressed?
Or it turns out these groups are running CIA apps, so nothing comes of it.
tim pool
I would say that we're likely going to see indictments.
I don't think Trump's playing around.
I think the indictment of Comey shows us it's happening.
The dam will break.
And Bannon was saying, end of summer, you'll see arrests.
So it's just a little bit after summer and Comey indictment happened.
I think Trump's going to put his foot on the gas.
And I think the reason why it's taken as long as it is, as I've explained the past couple of days, is he's trying to massage the culture, not drop a tsunami on the culture.
If he comes out and says, arrest Soros now, they're going to be like, dude, this is crazy.
You get a few arrests under the belt.
You get a few indictments.
You get more evidence.
Get it in the news.
He says it now.
Let it percolate in the news for a few months.
Let the cultural commentators bubble up the stories, create this wave, this zeitgeist.
Then when you make the arrest, everybody expects it.
raymond g stanley-jr
Do you think that with him talking about it so much, the left, it doesn't really matter what he says and how much he brings it out slowly but surely.
The left, the Democrats are still no matter what, even if it doesn't.
tim pool
The point is, regular people can't be shocked.
If Trump announced right now, he's arresting Soros, there's going to be some like Super Mom.
I'm like, what is going on?
Who's that?
Then the left comes out and says, it's just an old man.
Why is Trump doing this?
Let the commentary flow through the culture for three months.
Then on every TV, you're going to hear the debate.
George shows this, George shows that.
People start to form opinions.
Then you're going to get a 50-50 split.
And some people are going to be like, I don't know.
I heard about that guy.
I think he should go to jail.
Then Trump does it, and it's a 50-50 split.
raymond g stanley-jr
Gotcha.
joseph moulton
I don't know.
I'm kind of like the nothing ever happens chodd, the fell for it again award.
I just don't think Trump's got the balls to do it.
tim pool
Comey's been indicted.
joseph moulton
I'm talking to talk about this for Soros.
So someone like Soros who's got a vast.
tim pool
No, but you said nothing ever happens, but like literally so much shit has happened in the past month.
It's crazy.
joseph moulton
I don't think, yeah, but I don't think it's seismic in the sense that it's going to fundamentally change American politics.
Like I was mentioning before, there's going to be another.
tim pool
What could?
joseph moulton
I think you have to really crack down on all of these funders have to be cracked down upon.
The media has to be held to a new standard where they're not allowed to say this sort of dehumanizing assassination.
tim pool
Are you saying that Trump needs to announce an indictment on all of them at once?
joseph moulton
I think that would be a big show of strength, yeah.
tim pool
But that's not possible.
joseph moulton
Well, I mean, not possible initially, but like, I'm getting he's going to ramp up to it.
Like, that's the thing.
But like, just kind of wait, it's going to happen.
Wait, it's going to happen.
tim pool
There's a finite amount of attorneys.
They have to pull together evidence for probable cause hearings.
Then they have to convene a grand jury.
There's limited court space.
Trump can't just be like, here's 15 indictments of prominent Democrats right away.
Not only can you not actually legally do it because there's no mechanism for it, but everybody would say no to Trump if he tried that.
Even if Trump literally had the indictments, they'd be like, are you nuts?
unidentified
No.
raymond g stanley-jr
And Joseph, you're calling for Trump to go after the sources.
Yeah, and he's already talking about going after Soros and Huffman.
tim pool
And designating anti-fa-terrorist organizations.
And then three days later saying we will now dismantle the entirety of the leftist activity.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but I mean, I feel like, you know, last week when there was this big momentum and it was like the nation was still in shock over the assassination, you could have come out with it straight away and it would have had a much kind of stronger cultural impact and it would have been like, well, we've just taken this man's life and we've celebrated it, cause and effect, right?
Like for him to hit back hard.
He didn't hit it.
15 days.
15 days is a long time in politics, right?
tim pool
No, but I mean, look at how quickly things are.
joseph moulton
15 days is a long time.
tim pool
I can't take the nothing ever happens argument because literally this past month has been like this country is forever changed.
joseph moulton
I don't think it's forever changed from the top down, though.
I don't think Trump has fundamentally changed the nation to prevent these sort of people.
tim pool
They're talking about making a Charlie Kirk silver dollar.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Like the nature of this country has changed.
Liberals are posting in defense of Charlie Kirk.
Now, don't get me wrong.
joseph moulton
But it's form not function, right?
tim pool
What do you mean?
Trump declared an anti-fa-terrorist organization and indicted James Comey in the span of like three days.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but I'll have to see how it develops, but I just don't think it's going to be somewhere.
Are you bringing America going to be something?
tim pool
You got internet brain, bro.
joseph moulton
Perhaps.
Perhaps.
tim pool
So like it's not just internet brain, but I make this point quite a bit.
When you read history books, history is condensed.
And this has caused a kind of, and for lack of a better word, I don't mean this derisively, a delusion where people look at what is happening around them and think nothing ever happens because you read a history book and it's like Hitler rounded up the Jews, then he invaded Poland, then he invaded the, you know.
joseph moulton
Of course.
tim pool
But it's like, actually, that was like the American Revolution was 20 years.
joseph moulton
I'm talking in terms of like political momentum, right?
Like there's not that many people today going ex on the timeline.
Not that many people talk about Charlie Kirk being killed, right?
Like it does just, because people ask them internet brain?
tim pool
You said people aren't talking about Charlie Kirk being killed?
joseph moulton
It's not all over the timeline like it was last week.
tim pool
It still is for me.
raymond g stanley-jr
I see a lot of it.
tim pool
Yeah.
My YouTube feed and my ex timeline is literally like still every third post is Charlie Kirk.
unidentified
Really?
Okay.
tim pool
I mean, the Jimmy Kimmel thing.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
I mean, stuff like that.
tim pool
Investors are now suing Jimmy Kimmel so that Charlie Kirk is in every article.
joseph moulton
I mean, I feel like the outreach energy really kind of came to a, like, that could have been harnessed a lot better.
Like, he could have used that push for hard policymaking and be like, yeah, well, this is why, while it was still in the public psyche, it's not in as strong of a position as it was last week.
It was much more on the minds of people last week.
I think we can agree on that.
I don't get why.
tim pool
I don't agree.
joseph moulton
I don't get why he didn't do it immediately.
tim pool
Just like, look, I think that's like an opinion with no distinction.
It's like he could have done it.
Perhaps maybe.
I don't know.
We don't know what would have happened.
I think that in terms of are things happening, well, aside from the fact that Charlie Kirk's assassination is one of the most shocking things this country has seen in 70 years, things happen.
And then Jimmy Kimmel getting pulled off the air in a terror attack on an ABC station.
The amount of happenings that have happened that are fundamentally rearranging politics in this country have been terrifyingly fast in these past two weeks.
joseph moulton
Is that going to stay?
Or is it just going to be, okay, I need to be seen to be doing something?
And then, you know, six months down the line, James Comey was just indicted.
There's another, I'm saying there's another foreign conflict, other things going on in the world.
Then suddenly there's not as many eyes on Trump to go.
tim pool
It's not an argument for nothing ever happens.
It's an argument of we don't know what happens next.
joseph moulton
Yeah, but I'm saying, like, do I think in his head he's going to go, like, I'm going to go for Soros.
I'm going to make sure he's indicted.
I'm going to put 100% into this.
No, I think it's more of like lip service.
I don't think he's, I don't think he's fully sold on the idea.
tim pool
I would call that normalcy bias.
joseph moulton
Perhaps.
tim pool
Donald Trump just declared Antifa a terrorist organization and then indicted James Comey in the span of a couple of days.
And you're like, yeah, but he'll stop here.
Well, there's no evidence to suggest that.
joseph moulton
I haven't seen him go further.
tim pool
Well, of course you haven't because he's as far as he's gone.
joseph moulton
Yeah.
tim pool
So if in three days, so it's Antifa is a terrorist organization, then I am filing an executive order to have all governments dismantle the mechanisms of the left, and we're going to indict James Comey.
And next we're coming after Reid Hoffman and George Soros and you're going, he's not going fast enough.
I'm like, that's the craziest thing I've ever heard.
In fact, I think he's going too fast.
joseph moulton
Really?
tim pool
Yes, the mechanisms of law for these indictments, we don't have enough courtrooms and grand juries and attorneys to go as quick as he's actually going.
When he instructs all government to go after all of these agents, all of these nonprofit agencies, whatever, and at the same time trying to deport all of these people, sending the military out, he's stretched way too thin on this one.
And the idea that nothing's happening is crazy.
Like this nothing ever happens argument, it's like, wow, I never would have thought that there'd be three terror attacks in three weeks, followed by three massive governmental reactions.
These past two weeks have felt like a year.
Jimmy Kimmel getting taken off the air brought back the FCC argument.
It is insane the amount of things that have happened in such a condensed amount of time.
joseph moulton
Do you think it's just pressure valve, though?
That's my skepticism.
Perhaps this is also as a brick.
You look at the American federal government, you think like infinite resources, they can get whatever they want to do, get done possible.
Reality on the ground, I'm not well versed enough.
I mean, you may be completely correct about the court thing.
But I feel like to some degree, it is going to be a pressure valve because what benefit is it to Trump as an individual to get involved in all these indictments long term?
And his term ends in a few years.
He wants to solve the immigration thing.
He wants to leave his legacy.
I don't think he's going to cross the Rubicon on that level.
I just don't...
tim pool
I feel like...
joseph moulton
I think it's within his self-interest.
tim pool
I'm looking at this way.
joseph moulton
Trump is an individual.
tim pool
Trump is, you're watching Trump with a pickaxe chip away at a giant lodestone, and you go, yeah, but sooner or later, he's going to stop.
That's your argument.
joseph moulton
I mean, like, after seeing his speech on Sunday, like, the rhetoric just wasn't hard enough.
tim pool
We are watching Trump swing the pickaxe and you're like, yeah, but he's going to stop.
And I'm like, okay, well, he's doing it.
joseph moulton
His rhetoric just didn't seem hard enough.
It didn't seem like someone who was fully involved and committed to, I really want to dismantle it.
He didn't seem outrageous.
He ends up going on this tangent about the autism thing.
I've got a big announcement on Monday.
raymond g stanley-jr
Why do you want him to go balls to the wall for Charlie's memorial at that time?
unidentified
Because I feel like he's not going hard enough.
tim pool
No, no, no, but I'm saying like the argument right now is that Trump is literally doing it and you're like, yes, but he'll stop.
And I'm like, okay, if you think so.
There's no evidence to actually suggest that other than opinion speculation, which is fine.
I'm not saying you're wrong.
I'm saying I am watching Trump do a thing.
He has said he's going to continue.
He's actually swinging the pickaxe harder than we've ever seen swung.
I don't understand why that is evidence that he will not do more.
It's like the idea that Trump never does anything.
He just did all of his crazy things.
Yeah, well, he's not going to do more.
And it's like, but he keeps doing more.
So I don't know.
I just, it feels like normalcy bias to me.
joseph moulton
Perhaps.
tim pool
Like we are dealing with in these past few years, more things have happened than like 100 years of American history.
It's been fucking nuts.
That's the meme.
That's the joke that so much is happening internationally and nationally.
I mean, not only he bombed several narco boats, redirecting American warfare towards the fentanyl.
You've got the deployment of the National Guard, the Marines, the legal battles over there.
You now have the federal indictments.
You've got the targeting of Adam Schiff and Letitia James through Bill Pulte.
Like, Trump's doing so much fucking shit.
I'm like, wow, I said last week, what did I tweet?
At this pace, we'll see arrests by next week.
I was right.
To be fair, they didn't arrest Comey.
They indicted him.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But that was the point.
And so we are Thursday, and my tweet was correct.
And it was funny because I tweeted hello with a retweet, and people are like, what are you saying?
And I'm like, maybe I know things.
joseph moulton
I mean, I think also I'm just kind of thinking, I'm very emotionally charged on this in the sense that like it was going this way anyway.
A lot of people saw this sort of stuff happening.
Preemptively, they were using this dehumanizing language.
Nothing was done.
People are still deplatformed.
It's like that should have been undone prior to that.
Like we saw the way that this was going to manifest and now it's like just crack down on it.
And I feel like a lot of Americans, a lot of conservatives around the world, a lot of people on the right are like, can you just like, because they would crack that, the left would come down on this like a ton of bricks in a way that wouldn't be, okay, we're indicting some people.
They would just go hardline.
We're going to ban these right-wing terror groups.
And they'd have a plan that'd be put into action the same day.
This, okay, he's done the executive order, but as we were discussing earlier in the show, what can actually be done about it?
Well, we don't know.
So to me, that's lip service because there isn't an actual plan to really go, okay, we need to dismantle these people, dismantle their funding.
You say, okay, there's going to be indictments, but it's not going to be fast enough for these people.
We've seen that the ICE facility was attacked.
It's still ongoing.
Lives are being lost.
People are living in fear.
Do something about it now because this is impacting the quality of life.
tim pool
What should he do?
joseph moulton
I mean, should he?
unidentified
Wait.
tim pool
I got an idea.
Should he instruct all government agencies to target the infrastructure of the left and shut it down and arrest them?
Yeah.
He did that.
He did that earlier.
joseph moulton
Let's just see if it produces fruit.
Is it like fully?
Is that the main focus?
tim pool
He said all government agencies executive order to go and start dismantling the financial structure of leftist organizations, leftist terrorism.
joseph moulton
Well, we'll see how it looks by their fruits.
You shall know them.
It'd be interesting.
I've seen Trump say things before, and I'm being skeptical.
I am again.
unidentified
Well, let's get that last color.
tim pool
Portential, did you want to shout anything out?
raymond g stanley-jr
You should become American citizens.
tim pool
Portential, did you want to shout anything out?
unidentified
Shout out to Tate for his low-T MAGA males.
I have him take El Riari yogurt.
It improves metabolism, gut barrier to circular size, and sperm quality.
You can see it on Dr. Burke's channel.
I'm taking it myself, and it's good stuff.
Right on.
raymond g stanley-jr
There you go.
tim pool
Thanks for calling in, brother.
raymond g stanley-jr
All right, Tate.
tim pool
Well, I'm going to say this.
