Hillary Clinton FACES JAIL For Refusing To Testify In Epstein Case | Timcast IRL Show less
Ladies and gentlemen, I have information that could lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton.
Everybody does.
Actually, it's breaking news.
The Clintons are refusing to testify in the Epstein case, and they're being threatened with contempt.
Now, I know, cue the reaction.
Everybody's laughing, saying there is no way either of these people will ever see the inside of a jail cell.
Yeah, not with that attitude.
You've got to manifest it.
I need everybody to sit there and just imagine in your minds that Clinton's going to jail.
Maybe.
I doubt it.
No, I agree with you.
I doubt anything's going to happen.
Because if you're Steve Bannon or Peter Navarro, they're going to lock you up in two seconds.
But if you're the Clintons, you can destroy public records and acid wash a server.
And everyone and their grandmother, liberal grandmothers, will protect you and make sure you don't go to jail.
So let's read what this is all about.
We also got the big news.
Donald Trump said, F you twice and flip the guy off.
Yeah, the video's going viral.
At a, I believe it was a Ford plant after he called him Peto Protector over the Epstein files.
So I guess Epstein's in the news again.
But ladies and gentlemen, oh boy, we wouldn't have a good show for you unless we had a good laugh.
And that is the Supreme Court hearing oral arguments over West Virginia's transgender sport restrictions.
They don't want biological males and women's sports.
And it's incredible.
I mean, aside from Katanji Brown Jackson being an unlimited source of just hilarity because she clearly does not understand basic concepts like what is a woman, the question itself, what is a woman, has finally made it to the Supreme Court.
And the response from the progressives has been nothing but pure entertainment.
Yet they said we don't have a definition of what sex is.
And Alito is like, then how could you have sex-based protections if you can't define it?
So, yeah, we finally made it.
It took, what, 10 years to get to this point where the Supreme Court could finally be like, guys, if you can't define what a woman is, you can't have legal protections for women.
And they're like, yeah.
So we'll go over that.
There's a whole bunch of other breaking news.
The ICE agent involved in the shooting of Rene Good is reportedly in hiding and also reportedly will not face criminal charges, which everybody's freaking out about.
At least the liberals are.
People on the right are celebrating.
So we'll get into all of that.
Before we do, we've got a great sponsor for you, my friends.
It is Beam Dream.

Facing contempt threat, Clintons refused to testify in Epstein inquiry.
Now, admittedly, I didn't know if this was actually going to be the biggest story because Trump also said F you and flipped the guy off over the Epstein files.
And I kind of thought that would be more interesting to a lot of people because no one expects the Clintons to actually go to jail for contempt of Congress.
So I, you know, I can't help it.
We're going to be a little bit more serious, I suppose, and talk about the Clintons maybe going to jail.
Maybe I'm thinking what, like 0.01%.
So the New York Times says the couple escalated their battle with rep James R. Comer, the chairman of the Oversight Committee, who said he would move to hold them in contempt of Congress.
Quote, every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles, and its people, no matter the consequences, the Clintons wrote in a lengthy letter to Mr. Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, which was obtained by the New York Times.
I mean, everybody's calling everybody pedophile nowadays.
Pedophile pedophile.
Yeah, it's just, that's the new one.
It used to be Nazi and then Nazi lost its zing.
And so they're just like, oh, well, just call him pedophile, blah, blah, blah.
I don't think that anyone, anyone that's talking about Trump really believes any of it.
I think it's just the most slanderous thing they can come up with.
As for the Clintons, I mean, look, I'd at least like to see them actually in front of Congress, or at least I'd like to see, you know, see indictments for them not showing up because this is, like you said, you know, what's his name?
So if other people can go to prison, you'd think that there would be some demand to be like, hey, you know, you guys are doing the same stuff that just a couple of years ago we tossed someone in jail for.
That's what American politics and this new generation is just like each party's people just posting pictures of the opposing parties' figures with the same pedophile.
You know, I think that these guys aren't, they're going into contempt because if they did, okay, firstly, if they came out and they told everybody everything they wanted, they'd probably get assassinated by people.
Well, the whole thing with the Epstein files is just like the most powerful man on the earth isn't going to nuke any files that implicate him in pedophilia.
Like literal, basically the king of the world for eight years.
He's like, oh, I forgot to delete the file that inculcates me in this massive pedophiling.
It's like, no, all of this stuff has been wiped off the face of the planet.
There's not really much that we can do about it.
I mean, it's kind of a black pill for everybody in the audience, but it's true.
They mop this stuff up all the time if there really was a situation.
So it's like, I mean, Bondi, for what it's worth, I mean, everyone has their take on Bondi, but like for what it's worth, she is fairly compliant with Trump.
I mean, like, you go back to the first term, his relationship with the AGs was very contentious.
The funny thing is, too, like, I think it's a Spanish saying, which Spanish is, Spanish is European.
And it's funny that, like, remember when, remember when that viral video of that woman, she was like, if, if, she said something like, if you're white, you can't speak Spanish.
It's white supremacy or something.
Cultural appropriation.
And then someone made a video where he's like, I'd like to introduce you to the country of Spain.
like really striking as a guy that is fluent in spanish poquito uh you know yo i'll see a year you know i'll see a year something like that hispanic is a spanish-speaking person especially one of latin american descent living in the u.s Especially.
Yeah, like literally, so if I, so if I, a Korean, white mix guy, learn Spanish, I'm Hispanic.
And it's funny because everybody thinks I'm Hispanic anyway, so I just rolled it.
But it's nowhere near the top of the list for normies.
But there is, with the retard right expansion, a lot of regular people who are being pulled into this, and I think it's intentional from Google, from Facebook, and these other big platforms.
They want the right to be in the space, and they want the left to be coming off, or the corporate press to be coming off as more reasonable, trying to take back the narrative.
You can clearly see it's getting to Trump when he does this.
And I don't know if you guys saw that video where Trump was talking about how Melania says it's inappropriate to dance.
First, there are people who are like, Trump is in on the Epstein stuff and covering up.
No, that's stupid.
He's not.
However, Trump is covering up, I think, because he wants to wield the power of the Epstein files.
It's probably very complicated.
The files are probably gone.
So there's probably nothing he can release.
They've been releasing a bunch of files, but there's nothing really at all, all that interesting in it.
Democrats are weaponizing it.
It could be that the reason Trump didn't want to release it is because you can see what Democrats have done so far.
They took a photo of Trump at like some Hawaiian celebration and then redacted the faces of all the women and then tried to trick people into thinking he was like with a bunch of young girls or something.
But the photo was from a newspaper and it's just like very well-known old photo of like they're wearing lays around their neck or whatever.
That could be it.
I think there's Saudi royalty implications in the Epstein files.
I think that there's billionaires and millionaires.
And I think Trump's attitude is, why should the U.S. face massive collateral damage, degradation of our international relations over these pieces of trash?
So he's going to wield the one ring.
He doesn't want to give that power up.
That being said, he's already instructed to release these files because I think the pressure did get to him and he realized he's not winning this one.
I think he's largely pissed off just because he can't win it.
And I got to tell you, man, there is, how do I describe this?
I believe it was actually the first episode of The Simpsons outside of the Tracy Ullman show where they were playing Scrabble and Lisa used the word id.
And Homer said, You cast not a word.
And she says, Yes, it is, and shows him.
And then Bart looks at his letters and it's a bunch of trash spelling quidgey bow.
And he puts it up.
And then Homer's like, What's that?
And he's like, It's a large ape-like creature with a short temper and prone to violence.
You know, we all my point is about what Trump is feeling.
It's a combination of things, but I think in the political space, what I saw, I have seen on the ground.
Like I told that story of when I was hanging out at Charlestown Races and I was playing old Mississippi stud, if you know what that is, gambling, as it were.
And the dealer there said he was a big fan of the show.
And people always say, like, oh, you know, Tim comes and hangs out.
And then he said something like, he said two things.
He said, you know, I unsubscribed from Charlie Kirk the other day because I just realized he's never coming back.
And I was like, yeah, that's really sad, man.
It's like, it's a sad thing.
It's like a simple gesture for just a person because this is like this is over Thanksgiving.
But for him, he was saying like he watched Charlie all the time.
They killed him.
And so he went to his page, saw it, and he just went, unsubscribe.
And then he said, to be honest, I've kind of stopped watching a lot of content just because it's the same thing every day with nothing being resolved.
Like, I got to be honest.
The Hillary Clinton Maybe Arrested story is like the fourth or fifth time for the exact same reason.
In fact, the New York Post titled the story again.
They said, Bill and Hillary Clinton face jail again.
And so when I see Trump and someone screams pedophile protector and he just points at him and says F you, F you, and flips him off.
I'm like, I think tons of people are just at that point where they're just like, I don't care anymore.
I kind of feel like the point of this show is to make people aware of the problems.
Yeah, there's a lot of people that, you know, aren't really out there searching the internet all day long and they don't spend a lot of time on X or what have you.
And granted, we do, but I feel like our job is to kind of like, you know, make people aware.
Obviously, there's a lot of opinions, but our job is to make people aware of the problem.
I've got a good point about how your guys' job is to tell people kind of what the news is going on.
I totally agree with that because most of the time I'm just like a stay-at-home mom.
I film one video on the weekends and I rely on shows like this to tell me what's going on.
But on the other side of it, it is kind of like you're like, F you, this is so annoying.
Which, you know, I watch Michael Knowles a lot.
He had an episode out recently and something that stuck with me, this like fighting that we see and blackpilling is kind of like he stated it's a podcaster problem.
Or like normies, like you stated, Tim, they aren't really worried about all of this little nitty-gritty stuff.
Like for us, it does feel like, you know, constantly blackpilling or constantly hearing bad news, blah, Because that's really, you know, that's kind of the stuff that we need to make people aware of.
But at the same time, it's like our job, like what we do is to make people aware.
It's not just that we're like, it's not just complaining on the internet, as Tim Seth puts it.
It really is, you know, we are here to, you know, to give our opinions and let people know about things.
Yeah, I think that because of the nature of this job in the political podcasting realm that you're looking for problems to show the world these are the big problems that sometimes when the problems subside, you look around and you're like, we got to find some problem.
Maybe he's the problem.
Or you'll be like, what?
Listen to the thing that guy said.
That's a problem that he said that.
Now I got to go at that guy.
And then it creates this infighting or just like this cycle of like looking for a problem instead of looking for a solution.
Let's jump to this next story from the Wall Street Journal.
I'm in it.
The Wall Street Journal, Washington's new lobbyists paid online influencers with few rules.
Oh boy.
The big report in here, and we're going to get through a lot of it because, oh, man, is they're talking about how Israel is spending $900,000 on an influencer campaign with a U.S. audience, and they're calling it Project Esther.
Let me just jump to it.
This is the they say a newly formed firm called Bridges Partners registered as a foreign agent for the government of Israel and disclosed plans for a $900,000 influencer program dubbed Esther Project.
Okay, Esther Project.
The project, which started during the summer of 2025 and was scheduled to continue until the end of the year, would cost up to $250,000 a month when it was in full swing.
Regulatory disclosures said a rep for the Israeli government didn't respond to a request for comments.
So let me just say, any influencer, any person who takes money from a foreign government to promote the interests of that country should be forced to register as a foreign agent themselves.
So all of these people that got paid by Israel, they should be forced to register.
That being said, I love, and I actually reached out to the journalist on this one because she's like trying to, they might have changed it actually.
I think, no, okay, they didn't.
They kind of insinuate that we are being paid.
They put foreign governments are meanwhile turning their attention to courting and hiring those on the right.
Israel's Netanyahu sat down at least twice with American podcasters and influencers in the past year at Blair House across the street from the White House in April, where his guests included Spicer, Maha advocate Jessica Reed Kraus, and podcaster Tim Poole.
He urged support for U.S. intervention in Iran, which Trump would eventually carry out in June.
They're trying to make it seem like we got hired or I got hired.
That's not the case.
And I think APAC should also be forced to register as a foreign agent and any one of these individuals getting paid to do it.
I can't speak for any of any of the people who were there.
I can say that the reason they know it was about supporting U.S. intervention in Iran is because I told them.
So I appreciate that.
But this article is actually really interesting because it proves that everything is fake and gay, as they point out a few things.
And this is a lot of heavy accusations being leveled on right-wing personalities.
They say this.
Last summer, Donald Trump's 28-year-old former campaign aide, Alex Brusowitz, had some new advice for the president, reclassifying marijuana as a less dangerous drug.
Nearly 70% of Republican voters support Trump on this no-brainer.
What Brusowitz left out, a political action committee funded by legal marijuana's biggest players had just paid him $300,000.
You know what, guys?
I'm going to let you guys know.
I'm going to tell you all a secret.
We don't pay people to come on the show and we don't pay people to come on this show.
And boy, are we suckers?
Because I'm finding out every day when I'm talking to my team, like, hey, let's see if we can reach out to this person and get them on.
They go, oh, they charge, you know, 200 grand per appearance.
And I'm like, well, we're not going to do that.
And they go, well, this person did.
And I'm like, I'm like, what do you mean they charge that much?
Like, we've had a couple instances where sponsors have reached out, sponsors, I said, companies, and they'll say, you know, we want to get someone from our company on the show.
How much does it cost?
And we just tell them, not interested, have a nice day.
And then we say, we're always interested in taking on new sponsors if your product aligns with what we're interested in and building a relationship that way.
And so Mike Lindell is the best example.
They never asked us to come on the show to pay them to come on the show, but it's a good example of someone who sponsors the show who also is a guest.
But he's Mike Lindell.
I mean, so I think we had him on the show well before he ever sponsored us, but then we reached out.
They sponsored us.
And there's the guy from CrowdHealth came on well, well, well after we were already working with him because we had a working relationship.
But I look at all this stuff, and I got to tell you guys, the secret is it's all fake and gay.
Someone's getting paid somewhere and it's another factor in the whole culture we're just being demoralized.
Yeah, it's so sick how the U.S. in 2026, the U.S. political zeitgeist is just like Middle Eastern countries settling their like ethnic squabbles and are all true.
People have claimed that because we have the Daily Wire truth bomb in the background where the guest sits, just because we are friends with them, they were like, the Daily Wire paid them to do that.
And I'm like, you know, at first, I was kind of like, that's the stupidest thing I ever heard.
And I'm kind of like, oh, no, I get why they think that.
Everything's fake and for sale.
I mean, I'm reading through this thing, and it is cringe, the project, Esther Project stuff, because there are people who on X all of a sudden just went like hardcore pro-Israel for no reason.
And I'm like, well there, brother.
You sure have a strong opinion on Israel all of a sudden.
I know it's going to trigger all the Candace people, but yo, in Florida, the funniest thing is I'm getting stopped like crazy from people who don't know who I am, but know that I beefed with Candace.
And like, yeah, no, for real.
Because, you know, people who watch the show, they'll come to me and it's great and they'll say thank you for everything.
But I was hanging out at Hard Rock last weekend.
It's like a WPT event.
And some woman, she's like, you're that guy.
And I'm like, I'm that guy.
And she goes, F Candace Owens.
And then I started laughing.
And she was, and I was like, do you watch the show?
And she's like, no, I just heard that you were yelling at her.
And then I was sitting, I was sitting with my boy Robbie and a guy walking past and he was just like some bald ripped guy.
And what that did was it gave me, because the Iranian thing, they were like, now Benjamin Ayah, who's like, yeah, we can get rid of the theocracy in Iran for good.
And I'm like, oh, is that a good thing?
Like this revolution going on in Iran?
I can't tell what's real and what's fake on Twitter.
There's like a post will be like, the Iranian regime has killed 10,000 protesters.
They're like, the Iranian regime is blocking out Starlink's satellite over the country.
Now they have internet blackout and they're murdering protesters.
And I'm like, I don't know what to believe.
But if the Israelis really want to swoop in there and save tens of thousands of Republican-minded people that are trying to overthrow a theocracy, I feel like they're the good guys.
I think a lot of people feel that way, but they're afraid to say it because they either get said they're getting told that they got paid $7,000 or it's, oh, you're so, you're pro-Israel or you're anti-Israel if you just don't give an opinion.
I don't give an opinion on things because that's not what people watch.
Just like it shouldn't, because it used to be a litmus test in the right, like you needed to be sufficiently pro-Israel to then be part of the coalition.
That was frustrating.
And then now it's flipping around where you need to be sufficiently anti-Israel to be part of this coalition.
I like talking about Israel is awesome if you're into geopolitics and strategy.
Like if you just want to understand reality and the way military rolls around the planet and this power structures, Israel is an important part of that.
And you can see how the United States interferes with it and how they work alongside each other.
So I ordered a Mexican pizza being like, you know, it's a tostada.
And then the next day I was trying to skate and I started having pain and I was like, oh man, like maybe it's not flour because I didn't eat any flour.
We went to Taco Bell again after skating and I was like, let me get a Mexican pizza and two crunchy tacos and some, you know, what an iced tea.
And then the next day it was worse.
And I'm like, okay, hold on.
And then I googled it and it's like the Mexican pizza at Taco Bell is a, is a deep-fried flour tortilla.
If it does that, then is it not necessary for there to be, for equal protection purposes, if that is challenged under the equal protection clause, an understanding of what it means to be a boy or a girl or a man or a woman?
And what is that definition for equal protection purposes?
What does it mean to be a boy or a girl or a man or a woman?
unidentified
Sorry, I misunderstood your question.
I think that the underlying enactment, whatever it was, the policy, the law, we'd have to have an understanding of how the state or the government was understanding that term to figure out whether or not someone was excluded.
And we don't take issue with the, we're not disputing the definition here.
What we're saying is that the way it applies in practice is to exclude birth sex males categorically from women's teams and that there's a subset of those birth sex males where it doesn't make sense to do so according to the state's own interest.
Well, how can you, how can a court determine whether there's discrimination on the basis of sex without knowing what sex means for equal protection purposes?
unidentified
I think here we just know that we basically know that they've identified pursuant to their own statute, Lindsay qualifies as a birth sex male, and she's being excluded categorically from the women's teams as the statute.
So we're taking the statute's definitions as we find them and we don't dispute them.
And if someone pumps themselves full of female hormones so they grow tits and then they put on makeup, we have a word for that.
It's trans woman.
Yeah, but I disagree because some are and some there's there's a there's a there's a combination of mental disorders that envelop that can manifest in the appearance of what we describe as maybe transvestite or whatever.
I bring this up because it's just like, you know, look, women, it's not universal, obviously, right?
There's people who are gay.
But these ladies, man, they can't help it.
They see a big, strong men.
And I bring that up just because it's funny that we have this stupid argument over, you know, men and women are the same thing and a guy can be a woman.
It's like, was it Ryan Long who did the joke where he was like, he said he knows this trans man who said to him that she used to cry every day because she was in the wrong body?
And then he goes, did you ever stop to think that maybe God nailed it?
Like you're crying every day?
Like, guys don't do that.
And he said, could you imagine a guy who was like, I'm actually a woman.
Let's go lift weights and smash.
And like, you're like, yeah, maybe, maybe God nailed it, you know?
But that is funny too, because the premise of that joke is quite literally, this woman was crying every day.
I think that shows you that there's two things, the fetishist trans woman and the trans men who cry all the time.
Like, that's a guy, that's a woman.
They just have some kind of mental disorder or what's the right word?
Disorder is the broader term.
And then in the light sense, like they're suffering an anxiety.
I used to think I was pretty harsh and I would be like, I don't believe in any of this bipolar ADD.
They didn't exist when I was a kid.
It was ADD.
Now it's ADHD.
They want to prescribe you more.
I'm like, I don't believe.
Either you're cool or you're losing your mind and like how it happens.
They want to put a label on it so that they can prescribe you a certain medicine and make some money off that label.
And I feel the same thing with trans, whatever.
It's like, it's easy to go down that route of, I don't believe any of it's real.
It's all in your mind.
But when people are suffering certain types of delusions, it's okay to label them or whatever you want to call them, you know, not necessarily delusion, whatever, you know, mental illness of any kind.
It's okay to label them.
That's where I am with like transgender because I don't think gender is more of a concept of like how do you feel transsexual can't happen because you can't make a male body a female, but you make it look like one, but you can't make it a female.
I don't want to see a contact sport where a guy who's in a masculine body that's taking progesterone or whatever, female chemicals, goes and levels some woman with his muscle torque, like because he was born for 20 years, had it like that.
I don't want to see.
That's where I'm at with sports.
You want to play golf against somebody if it's consensual, but don't force girls that haven't consented to playing against guys that are transitioning to women.
Seven-year-old boys and seven-year-old girls are different.
There's a lie.
They've pushed every step of the way, every manipulation they can.
And so at first, they argued men and women are completely the same.
Some men are tall, some men are short.
That's right.
And some women are strong.
And they argued a woman could be as strong as a man if they were just trained to be.
And that was not true.
And then they said, okay, well, it's because of testosterone.
So, you know, prebubescent kids are the same, but after puberty, so if we stop the puberty, then it's going to be equal.
Another lie.
I think I saw commentary because I didn't listen to the whole Supreme Court thing that Amy Coney Barrett had made an argument or had asserted that prebubescent children were, there's no competitive advantage, which is just factually incorrect.
In the womb, prenatal testosterone has an impact on fast twitch muscle and development.
I remember in elementary school, the boys, I don't know if I'm on the camera, but it's like the boys would run like this, and the girls would run like this, like up.
They would have like this up-down energy when the guy called center of gravity.
For those that don't know and you're wondering what we're doing, this book was actually written by Ashley St. Clair, who announced today, in an effort to make amends, plus in the best interest of all parties, my name will be removed as author of Elephants Are Not Birds, effective immediately.
Now, I got to be honest, the initial story, Elon Musk wanted to sue for sole custody of his child with Ashley St. Clair.
We were not going to talk about because it's just like, so what?
Now I think it's become with this, with this move now involving Brave Books, it's becoming more massively indicative of a cultural shift.
Everybody on the right is fighting.
The sides are changing again as predicted.
And maybe it's intentional.
The machine is trying to shuffle the box to prevent social decay or breakdown.
And enemies become friends, friends become enemies, and books are written by no one.
Well, Brave Books issued a statement saying, over the last decade, we've witnessed a massive cultural shift.
Basic foundational truths like biological sex have become controversial.
In 2021, we partnered with Ashley St. Clair in a children's book titled Elephants Are Not Birds.
The book communicates a clear truth that our biological sex is not chosen, but something we are given.
It has become increasingly apparent that Ashley no longer aligns with the message of the book or with our mission.
For that reason, we've reached a mutual agreement with Ashley that her name will be removed from Elephants Are Not Birds in Future Prints.
Our position remains unchanged.
Brave Books exist to tell stories that affirm timeless biblical truths and to partner with voices who share that conviction and desire to pass it on to the next generation with clarity and courage.
That commitment requires discernment in both the stories we tell as well as the partners we choose.
We will continue to act with conviction and tell stories that reflect the truths we believe are worth passing on.
We're grateful to the families who have welcomed our stories into their homes and trusted us to play a small role in their children's lives.
Trent, I volunteer as tribute.
You can slap my name in that book right now and say it was written by me.
Actually, I'm half kidding.
What I want to say, truth be told, is I am disappointed in Brave Books and in Ashley St. Clair.
We are not Netflix.
We do not go in and edit the movie four years later because of some cultural issue.
If I go back and look at a book that was written by some dude and then 20 years later became a Nazi, he still wrote the book.
His name is still on it.
That's life.
Brave Books should not remove her name from the book that she wrote and collaborated with them on.
And she should not have also agreed with them on the removal.
I think it absolutely was a mutual decision.
Of course, we saw the other day that Ashley St. Clair apologized for transphobia.
And Brave Books did take the name off those early in the day before the statement, I believe before the statement was published.
I just think it's laughable.
It's stupid.
It's ludicrous.
And I will say this.
I still consider Ashley St. Clair to be a friend.
She's always been very nice to me and very good to us.
She's helped us out with a lot of things.
And so people are critical of her.
But this is how retarded everything has gotten.
Guys, you can't take your name off a book.
Like, she wrote it.
That's it.
We're done.
I do, I will say this.
I mean, my presumption here now with the move they made is actually she didn't write it.
She endorsed it.
You mean she wrote it?
Well, I mean, if Brave Books is going to take her name off of the book, my presumption is that Brave Books probably wrote the book and then said, you want to put your name on it.
This is my problem with all of this historical retconning garbage.
Like Netflix goes in and edits movies after the fact years later or TV shows.
So there was a, there's a pro skateboarder who I've called out before, but I'll avoid saying her name at this point.
But this pro skateboarder decided that she was a he came out as trans and said, I'm a man, got a double, a double mastectomy and started taking her shirt off and skating around with no shirt on.
Very still, obviously, a woman.
But here's the thing.
Here's the thing.
Despite publicly saying, I'm a man, she kept competing in the women's X games.
And I said, now hold on there a gosh darn minute.
If you claim to be a man, you should stop competing against women, right?
Nope.
Because that's the way it works.
If you're a female who claims you're a man, you compete against women.
And if you're a man who claims you're a woman, you compete against women.
None of it made sense.
But what really irked me about it was that on Wikipedia, by changing all the pronouns to he, him, they were now asserting that this woman won the men's X games.
When they said, Skater is a championship gold medalist at the X Games.
He won this year.
He won that year.
He won this Olympic qualifier.
And you're like, wow, he got the gold in the X Games.
The presumption is a guy.
And then you look up the X Games and this person is nowhere to be found because he did not.
And I think when I read this Ashley stuff, and like, I don't spend a lot of time in drama and looking at it.
I took it as the, from the perspective, as I'm a mom, she is kind of left with no one.
And so, who is she going to ally with?
The people who also are known with Elon Musk and Elon Musk, other baby mamas, that's her only ally right now.
So, if she's got to change her views or what she's got to do to have a relationship with the only people who really want to have a relationship with her, maybe that's where it is.
They sent in a thousand more troops to Minneapolis after this whole thing happened.
And I will say, as someone who is looking for Vance to run or whatever, immigration is one of the top issues on our side on the Trump, on Trump's, Trump voters and everything.
And if they back down from this, this is going to be very bad for them because we care about this and we're tired.
We didn't, the George Floyd stuff, we just had to sit there and take it.
And we don't want to see, we don't have to want to have to sit here and take this too and see, you know, because I mean, and we all saw the video, you know, it is what it is.
Well, yeah, I think the Trump badmen, they've learned their lessons from 2020.
And they understand that right now in Minneapolis, this is where they set the tone for the next three years.
It's like, hey, this is where you like, this is in the minds of leftists where they're going to figure out if they're allowed to operate with impunity or not.
And so that's why, and I think the Trump admins making the correct moves thus far, but like you really got to communicate to the people.
Like it's one thing flawed in the DHS agents, again, and ensure that this ICE agent isn't charged, but you need to also communicate that to the American people.
You need everyone to understand what time it is.
And so I'm in total agreement, but it's like, yeah, this is really going to make her break.
I'm not sure about that, but I'm pretty sure you don't.
Like the idea is, if anyone witnesses a felony, you can stop the person from doing it.
However, the issue is if you're wrong, you can get sued.
Okay, let's go again.
8 USC 1357 grants ICE agents the authority to conduct all immigrations and custom-related law enforcement and anything in its periphery.
That means they can conduct traffic stops.
This means that they can, if they believe you are in any way committing any crime related to customs, not just immigration, here's the best part.
Within 25 miles of any U.S. border, they can enter your vehicle without a warrant.
It's a special power.
Special power.
So if you are in like, you know, San Diego, ICE agent can walk up to you and say, I'm getting in your car right now.
They are allowed to do that.
So these liberals are like, they can't perform traffic stops.
They can walk up to your RV and say, I'm coming in, duh, to make sure you're not trafficking people, right?
Here's the best part.
The law also says they can enforce any U.S. law explicitly.
As federal agents, they can enforce any federal law.
So imagine the retardation that must persist for you to believe they could not say, out of the vehicle, you're under arrest.
The argument in the Daily Show with this woman who's talking to Jon Stewart, he says, but can't they arrest you for obstruction?
She goes, but they can't perform traffic stops.
It has to be serious obstruction.
Oh, kind of like being trained by Ice Watch to obstruct and assault officers and then being reported by witnesses to have been leading a protest to obstruct their vehicles from engaging in law enforcement activities.
Clear-cut obstruction.
And they can stop you.
They can pull your vehicle over if they think you're in violation of immigration or federal law.
Meaning, if they see a vehicle with out-of-state plates with drugs, they can pull you over.
If it's interstate, evidence of an interstate crime of some sort.
Here's the most important thing.
I'm going to ask you this, Ian.
Do you think that if an ICE agent witnessed a man shoot a child in the head, he has the authority to arrest him?
Can I talk about Title VIII a little bit, like what you just mentioned?
I love that you brought that up because I see in the argument with conservatives trying to defend ICE, they never actually can reference Title VIII, which lays out all immigration law.
And when I reference that and I cite it when I'm talking to liberals every single week, they will not listen to me.
They think that it's illegal for them to wear a mask on their face.
That's not illegal.
It's actually not even illegal for them to not read them their Miranda rights if it's if they're being arrested.
Miranda rights are only read at the discretion of the officer if they intend to question you.
If they don't intend to question you, they will not read you your rights.
Often they'll read you your rights at the department after being arrested if they think they need to question you.
There's a funny video where some guy's yelling at a cop, you never read me my rights.
And he goes, I'm not questioning you.
And he's like, you got to read me your rights.
And he goes, I watched you commit the crime.
No, I don't.
And then the other thing, too, is I want to play this video for you guys.
I'm going to play that for you again.
I want you to listen.
She says, why did you have real bullets?
You see, here's what happened.
Over the past several years, these liberals have been conditioned to believe that the riot control actions they've experienced are law enforcement.
They're engaging with armed federal agents seeking narco gangs, MS-13, criminal cartels, and often just general criminals.
But this is criminal law enforcement, not community affairs.
So when these liberals show up to a protest and they see a cop with a truncheon, there's no real bullets.
When they see a guy with a gun, he's got beanbags or expanding foam rounds.
But these people have decided to engage with federal law enforcement who are trying to arrest serious criminals.
Sheath said, why did you have real bullets?
Why?
It's a game.
It's always been a game.
You see, this is the problem with riot control weapons.
We have created an environment where these people know there are no consequences to rioting.
If they go out and smash up a storefront and set it on fire, they know their worst case scenario is despite the fact they've killed and will kill again, they'll only ever be hit with a beanbag.
In the George Floyd riots, 30 plus people were killed.
And the police that engage the rioters use less lethal munitions.
When these people go out to engage the feds on law enforcement operations, they're treating it like it's crowd control community affairs.
In fact, in many cities, the community affairs officers don't even have weapons.
They're just walking around in jeans and windbreakers.
I am telling you quite literally, when these liberal middle-aged women show up to Ice Watch, they think they're playing red versus blue.
They think they're playing paintball.
They don't understand.
I went to Glenn Beck's studio a few years ago, several years ago.
And it's amazing, the Blaze studios.
They have a bunch of old newspapers on the walls.
Like you go to the bathroom, walk out, you go to the green room, you walk out, and they have these old newspapers.
And I read one of them.
And it was an old 1800s newspaper where it said that a man was outside of a saloon when another man walked up and put a pistol to his chest and pulled the trigger, killing him.
And they never found out who was.
And I'm just like, man, it was crazy back then.
It was wild back then, life or death.
Today, we got a bunch of soft, cookie-dough people who don't understand the harsh realities of the world.
And we are dealing with an escalation of political violence and conflict.
So when they laugh and celebrate Charlie Kirk being murdered, it's a TV screen to them.
They don't actually understand.
Charlie Kirk was shot and killed and bled out in front of his friends.
And this puts the whole country at jeopardy.
They watch that through a screen and they laugh.
They've never seen it.
That's the first time someone's ever experienced any kind of heightened threat.
We've talked about this years ago with the woke, how they got offended by words.
And I pointed out that, listen, if you've never been in a fight, if you've never been threatened, if you've never been in a life or death situation, and literally the worst pain you've ever felt is being called stupid, you will be going, it's the worst pain I've ever felt.
And then if you're some dude who's just been like mercilessly beaten your whole life, you're going to be like, dude, I don't care what you call me.
Or more importantly, if you're like a combat veteran or PMC, you're going to be like, you can call me whatever you want, dude.
It does not boil my blood in the least.
I've been shot at.
This woman and these people, the worst thing they've ever experienced is like getting pushed by a cop.
And that's the extent of what they think is possible.
So when Michael Malis says people don't understand how much worse it could get, it's a statement to all of us and to these people.
So I plead with you all to understand this.
When we look at this woman and she goes, why did you have real bullets?
And we laugh saying, ah, the naivete of the middle-aged liberal.
Understand there are many conservatives who can recognize this in this woman, but not themselves.
What it means if these people actually win and what it means to have like, I don't know, you get arrested for no reason and they literally flay you alive and torture you in front of your children because that happens and worse.
And I didn't, but I heard that they were spraying protesters with like, oh, it's water mixed with like some burning, you know, pepper spray and dye, blue dye.
And they'd take fire hoses and just spray the crowd.
So everyone was there, not only would they be in agony with their skin burning, you could tag them and find them later.
And I wonder like how comfortable people here are with that kind of crowd control.
It's just like to see how real it can get.
You know, I kind of wish that I had been in Hong Kong.
Played out fine the way they played out, but I don't know, just to get a taste, you know, to remember that we don't live in fantasy land.
Tether has the gold token, making it a lot easier for people to buy gold, which probably created massive demand.
Because my understanding is the way it works is if you, if so, for those that aren't familiar with what Tether is, it's a cryptocurrency that is pegged to the dollar or to gold.
So if you buy one USDT, one US Tether, it's equal to $1.
Basically, it's like a bank account, sort of.
It's not literally, but that Tether token can be shared with anybody and redeemed for a dollar through Tether whenever.
And then they have, what is it, XAUT or something?
So my understanding is when you buy one of those, Tether literally will buy the equivalent amount of gold, which means a regular person can very easily now trade gold using the crypto wallet system.
That's why I've heard some people say part of the reason that it is spiking is because there's so many new precious metal-backed cryptocurrencies on the market.
Well, because that used to always be the pitch on like when you would hear these gold ads on like conservative radio growing up is they're like, well, it's a hedge against inflation.
I'm like, well, what if the price of the precious metal also increases?
When they say like the price right now is $90,000, you're not going to be able to get that because every vendor is going to have their overhead cost attached to it.
So I just went to moneymetals.com and an ounce of silver is $105.
I don't know what's happening right now, but this looks like a bunch of big money movers are consolidating wealth in precious metal.
Then they're going to crash the economy in half and all the metal is going to drop by 50%, but they'll be right back where they started when they bought it at 16.
I don't think that it's, I think that it's logged and they can get the information, but I don't think I'm interesting enough for them to actually track me.
So when we were looking at these NSA data centers, and the argument from the government was, we don't actually, we can't possibly look at everything you've ever done.
You're right.
They don't need to.
The AI system will, and it's going to learn everything about every single person.
And they probably already have some kind of Oracle where they walk in and they go to a computer that's been tracking every single connected person's data since the inception of the internet.
We know the NSA has had a massive data center for 20 years.
We know the NSA had been downloading and tracking everyone's data online and phone calls.
We know that in the private sector, major companies have been trying to get as much data as possible for training models.
Elon bought X largely for this reason, so he can take all of the Twitter data and punch it into an AI.
They all have downloaded every YouTube video, so they have all of the YouTube data.
We know that the military has been working on AI-related technologies since the late 70s.
The question then is: if we know that the military has been developing AI since the late 70s, but we don't know to what extent, if we know that the U.S. government has been illegally tracking and storing all of our data, is it then reasonable to assume, connect the dots, they've plugged all that data into the AI technology they've built?
Yeah, obviously.
And if you think otherwise, I think you'd be insane.
Yeah, I mean, you wonder why it is.
The Northern Virginia, what is it?
The Northern, the North Virginia Data Corridor, they call it.
And it's called the Virginia instance.
This is where Langley is, where the NSA, the CIA, the FBI, they have all these servers, and they've been expanding data centers rapidly.
That's got all the information of every single person ever.
So the U.S. government probably has a machine where they can go in and just be like, I want to know exactly what Caitlin Bennett did yesterday and today.
And it's going to be like, here's a timeline of everything she's ever done.
He's one of the most richest, third richest man in the world, I think.
He's tight.
Elon's the first richest, but Larry, I think, is the third richest.
He was talking about building a pervasive network.
I'm reading it off of the search algorithm of AI monitor cameras, police body cams, vehicle security systems, drones that will ensure both citizens and law enforcement are on their best behavior.
These people obsessed with order.
Now, Larry, I don't know you yet.
Order for the sake of order is not always good.
It has a diminishing return.
You can get close to 100, but then if it starts to produce evil, you've got to lay off the and it's like a little chaos is okay.
So you don't want these obsessively rigid systems.
And I think that just like you need some chaos in an ordered system, it's like you need governments can't be too totalitarian or they too will fall.
They need to be able to have a little bit of chaos, which is the United States government.
It has a very chaotic system where every four years we have a new freaking leader.
Like, that's crazy chaos relative to like these long monarchical systems that get overthrown with violent revolutions.
Like, we don't need violent revolutions because our system is a revolution.
So that's the chaos in the order that we need.
And for Larry, you just obsessiveness with order and gathering all the data so that you don't poop until 2 p.m. because we think it's better for you.
Like, you're going to have to lay off at some point, bro.
Maybe we can come on the show.
Oh, it's so much order that they want to make sure you don't poop at the wrong time or across the street when the light is red or say the wrong words because it might upset the environment.
Well, we're going to go to your Rans and Super Chats.

Guys, let's grab your rants and chats, my friends, to see what y'all are on about.
All right.
Let's see.
Flan the Man says they aren't going to arrest anyone.
Now, I did want to wait until later in the show to get to this, but he says, rest in peace, Scott Adams.
For those that didn't hear, I believe most of you probably did, but just want to say thank you to Scott Adams for all the work that he did, for the laughs.
I was a big fan of Dilbert when I was a kid, and I mean this sincerely because the Dilbert cartoon was amazing, 99 to 2000.
The best intro for any show ever, and everyone agrees.
I think I was, how old was I, like 13 or 14 years old?
Because I was watching Future Realm.
I was watching Simpsons.
The Dilbert cartoon nailed it.
So to see Scott, you know, stick his neck out to join the fight and take the flack that he did and the insults, but for the right cause, it was valiant.
It was honorable.
And this morning, he passed away.
So rest in peace, brother.
And, you know, thank you for everything for everything and all the work that you did.
And I recommend you guys, if you haven't, watch the Dilbert cartoon.
I know it's old at this point, 27 years.
Can you believe it?
But I was watching old clips this morning when I heard that he passed because it's just, it's really good.
There's like I was talking to Chris, the CEO, and I was like, it's ridiculous because there are people on Rumble with deals with Rumble that call me a shill for Israel.
And I'm just like, bro, we're partnered with the same company.
Could you imagine how stupid you'd have to be to have a Rumble deal and then accuse another Rumble personality of shilling of being paid to promote Israel?
That would mean you are too.
So stupid.
So, you know, that's all I have to say about those people anyway.
Yeah, no, literally, no one has ever told us to say anything.
We can literally say whatever we want.
We often do on the uncensored portion of the show.
Like, literally, no one's stopping me right now from saying Israel is gay.
I can just do it.
I can literally just say it.
I can also say I don't really care that much about Israel.
They can do what they do.
I don't know.
It's a foreign country.
I care about Israel as much as I care about like Tajikistan or something.
I mean, I think a mistake some people make are calling like all of these, some of them are, but all of these leftist writ large idiots.
I'm like, a lot of them aren't.
They actually know what they're doing and they have a very specific vision for what they want America to be.
And they were going to be very connivaling in their attempt to bring that forth.
So not saying, you know, a lot of them are idiots, but a lot of these people, you shouldn't underestimate, should take them very seriously, especially when they make threats because they fully intend on carrying out those threats.
There was a time where I would tell people that if they sent, I had a P.O. box and you could send me either two silver, pre-1964 dimes or one 1964 quarter.
And I would sign an autograph and send it off to him.
And people could, you know, at the time you could get them for like, it was like two bucks for the dimes or something like that.
So it was super cheap to get an autograph picture, you know.
I think it's funny that everyone thought the Terminator was going to be a robot marching around with guns, just like looking at you and then shooting, but it's actually just telling Trump to invade Venezuela.
So the thing with Korea is Atlantis and Lemuria were fighting, and that's the North and South Korea because that's actually their entry point for interacting with the inner continents where we're all slaves.
How about you just write down the digit, the letters, and then the alphanumeric symbols and then compare them and see if people wrote down the same thing?
If the lasers are exposing it, what see, if this was real, we'd basically just like, dude, if it were real, you'd blast the laser on a wall, figure out how to extended state DMT permanently see the code of the universe, and then start doing experiment after experiment to see what would alter any of the alphanumeric symbols to alter the code of the reality.
And then you'd start mapping what the symbols mean and the code so you can change reality.
He killed his older brother because he was a fucking maniac and he was stealing food from the family.
So Tamu Jin, Genghis Khan, and his other brother went and ambushed his oldest brother in the field with an arrow and was like, no, no more of this egalitarian from here on out.
Yeah, I mean, look, if there are illegal aliens, I don't care if they're committing other crimes aside from being in the United States illegally, they have to go back.
And I mean, I know people talk about the dangerous criminals and et cetera, and that's that's what people say because that's easy to, it's an easy argument to make.
I don't care if they're a dangerous criminal or not.
If they're here illegally, they should be deported.
And I understand that it's about making a palatable argument, but I think that conservatives should double down on the, hey, look, if they're here illegally, they should go.
I don't care if they're a dangerous criminal or not.
Of course, dangerous criminals have to go.
But if you get rid of, if you deport all illegals, you will inherently be deporting dangerous criminals as well.
And also, because people are so blackpilled about Trump's mass deportation numbers, I just, we've got to correct that claim because they look at Obama's and they look at Biden's.
The majority of their deportation, they were just at the border and they turned them around.
Yes, most of the deportations, they say, oh, they deported more, but what happened is they came to the border, turned them around, sent them back, and they counted that as a deportation.
When you have no one coming, even trying to come across the border, you can't count that.
And so conservatives, they've got to stop this black pilling.
It's like, he's not doing what he said.
He is doing what he said he's doing.
I'm happy with it.
Of course, any number rising of illegal aliens being deported is great.
And like, yeah, to Phil's point, I mean, it's like the mass deportations of the legals is just the start.
I mean, the legal immigration, if you're like middle class or up is a bigger threat to your lifestyle or your livelihood than illegal immigration for a variety of reasons.
I mean, that's, I made this point in the show the other day is the group that you're like typically like frustrated with the most actually is an indicator of your economic class.
So like if you're really frustrated with like black people, you're probably lower class because you're interacting with them more.
You're making less money.
Middle class is Indians because like you're jostling with, you know, Indians or all these positions.
And then the upper class is Chinese because of like these global banking systems, these sorts of things that you're interacting with.
The Chinese are the ones meddling in it.
So it's like, yeah, racism, not racism, but like, yeah, the group that you're most frustrated with is like an indicator of your class as well.
Because every aspect of American life has gotten worse.
Like retail is where you see it the most.
Like service, the quality of service has gone down dramatically.
The way I see it is coming from retail.
I worked in retail for years.
The Karens are kind of the last line of defense because you know, if you get out of line, they have such sky-high standards.
They're going to let you know.
They're going to make it everyone's problem.
And when that happens to you, when you get dressed down by a Karen, you get like mad and you like cuss under your breath and that sort of thing.
But you don't repeat that again because you're like, I don't know if the next Karen's going to strike.
So Karen's frustrating, yes.
PMS, yes.
Variety of issues.
But they are the last line of defense for the quality of life of Americans.
And as soon as Karens are out of the way, if all these people online who don't want to talk about black people, they just want to rail on Karen's all day.
If they get their way and they get the Karens out of the way, it's going to be Brazil.
It's going to be Brazil.
It's going to be like South Africa.
It's going to be like the worst.
Every retail experience is going to be like torture.
And so it's like, it's so frustrating.
And so I made this point.
Like everyone's like railing on like middle-aged white women.
And I'm like, do you really think in America, middle-aged white women are like the biggest issue, like American public life?
Like, have you ever been to Memphis?
Like, do you really think it's like seriously Karens are like the problem in Chicago?
Are you walking on the south side of Chicago?
Like, man, I really hope a Karen doesn't come out and expect like her meal to be correct.
Like middle-aged white women still vote like 50-50.
And in many states, they still vote Republican.
And then you look at the foreign-born population, it's blue in every single state.
So it's like, it's safe-edgy.
This is like this whole terminology is what is safe-edgy.
And it's like railing on middle-aged women, white women is like safe-edgy because it's like, wow, you're really like pushing against the boundary here.
And it's like, cause you don't want to talk about like foreigners or like black American, like culture with like the black community.
And if it's like shot put, it's shot put combat where you have to throw the Trump just presiding over Nebraska versus Florida in the jousting competition.
Because I'm worried if we do, if we do martial, like if we default to martial arts, I'm really worried that Hawaii is going to run the table because they have a massive Asian American population, makes up the majority of their state.
And if it comes down to martial arts, they all know karate.
I mean, a lot of people, yeah, and striking too, because like St. Pierre, George St. Pierre, is still, I don't know if he's still fighting, but the last fight I saw him, man, he basically won with jabs and he just kept smoking the dude.
It's more for Caitlin, but people can chime in, please.
Feel free to.
You know, I really love your on-the-ground work, but currently with the political climate, it's a little tense, and there's some people that are hot on the ground.
And how are you generally managing the risk of violence during your interviews and reporting?
Because it does get pretty spicy.
And also, it had kind of a second part, too, and I wanted to kind of wrap this in.
But there's also been some criticism of Renee Goods' protest involvement.
People basically said that she was a mom and she's very careless.
And I want to know kind of your thoughts on balancing your family life with how you do your on-the-street interviews and staying safe out there.
But the thing is, like, the first time I slapped Ian, he got knocked back really far, but then froze in midair and floated back with his eyes glowing and struck me with force lightning.
So he decided we should probably just have a truce and not hit each other.
That was Allison came in the room that day and was like, what are you guys doing when we were like some like arts started getting brought into the play?
My coverage clearly states that we can opt for the funeral costs or a journey around the planet to recover the dragon balls to wish my friend back to life.
So I want to address Caitlin here because she's the rock star Of the evening as the guest.
And I just wanted to give her definitely a shout out.
I mean, I'm really impressed, and I think that you're really articulate and you're really lovely.
And I appreciate going out and just talking to people on the streets because I think that that's something that they really need to have somebody that's like a voice of reason.
And so that kind of leads into my question, which I think you sort of already answered previously with Patrick.
But I really wanted to see how you plan for the future, especially for your safety.
And if you plan to continue with the, you know, going out on the street and just talking to strangers as you go and like not specifics of, but like how you're, how that's coming into your mind, especially with everything that happened with Charlie Kirk and all these different violent events that are happening.
