WAR! US War With Iran FEARED As MASSIVE Deployment Heading To Gulf | Timcast IRL #1452 w/ Amber Duke
Amber Duke and Timcast IRL dissect U.S. Navy’s potential one-third deployment to the Gulf, questioning Trump’s motives—whether regime change, PSYOP, or nuclear threats against Iran’s leadership. They critique media leaks, advanced neurotoxins like "mosquito drones," and CBS’ alleged censorship of Colbert’s interview with Tallarico, who raised $2.5M via fraudulent claims. Epstein files remain unproven, yet the host warns against blaming Trump while promoting his band’s April 29th tour. The episode blends military speculation, political hypocrisy, and pop culture, exposing systemic manipulation and generational media habits. [Automatically generated summary]
Reportedly, around a third of the U.S. Navy is being deployed to the region.
Donald Trump has called on the UK not to give some land back because it seems like we're going to be using that for war, perhaps.
And I'm going to say it like this.
You know, we're decently connected here at Timcast IRL.
And the messages that I'm hearing behind the scenes, nothing definitive, but it's very much like, yeah, the war is going to happen.
And so, again, could be wrong because there's Beltway Scuttlebutt down here in the DC area, but it's sounding very much like we are about to go to war with Iran.
You've got numerous corporate news outlets saying Donald Trump is prepared to strike Iran as early as this weekend, but he has not made a final call.
There's alleged leaks happening on 4chan, probably fake because it's the internet, but they're saying the plan is for a joint U.S.-Israeli strike, taking out all of their top leadership.
And my speculation on this is it may be a PSYOP.
Indeed.
The posturing in the media and these leaked state alleged leaked statements may be just to terrify Iran into cutting a deal, saying, Hey, look, everybody's saying Trump's going to do it.
It's leaking.
Uh-oh, here it comes.
And then maybe they cave and surrender before we actually have to go to war.
But based on the deployments that we are seeing with refueling tankers, troops getting called in, and they're pulling troops out of Syria, looks like Trump means business.
And so this is going to be absolutely massive.
Aside from that, we got massive news.
The SAVE Act has reached 50 votes in the Senate.
They got the votes only if they get rid of the filibuster.
And as you all know, they won't.
So it's funny because the Save Act, which would massively aid and benefit this country, and literally everyone agrees with from Democrat, Independent, Republican, for some reason, they still won't pass it.
Your guess is as good as mine.
And our guesses are probably spot on because, you know, Democrats probably just want people to be able to vote without proving who they are.
More importantly, to ballot harvest universal mail-in votes.
We're going to talk about that and a whole lot more before we do, my friends.
We got a great sponsor.
It is Beam Dream.

I absolutely love this stuff.
I drink it every single night.
They got a bunch of different flavors.
I got cinnamon cocoa, sees all caramel, brownie batter.
I'm a big fan of the cinnamon cocoa.
It's my favorite, but I've been drinking the sea salt caramel one.
It's got magnesium.
It's got L-theeni.
It's got rishi.
It's got melatonin.
I drink it before bed.
It's a cup of hot cocoa.
Oh, it's caramel.
I guess hot caramel.
And it's about 15 calories, no added sugar.
No joke.
I do drink it every night before bed, and it is absolutely amazing.
My sleep has dramatically improved.
I've actually been getting such good sleep.
My sleep has started to reduce.
Like, no joke.
I was sleeping for like seven and a half hours.
Now I'm just naturally waking up a little earlier, and my sleep score is still maxed out.
This stuff is great.
And if you're a guy, it's important because your testosterone and HGH are produced in the body during rem and deep sleep.
So if you're sleeping poorly, it's negatively impacting your weight, your energy, your mood.
So I'm a big fan.

And major news, if you're trying not to sleep, you're trying to wake up, castbrew.com for the Cast Brew Vault Black Cold Brew Concentrate.
It is here, my friends.
Check this out.
We've got multi-serve glass bottles.
There's only 372.
It's a small run for now because we're just launching this product.
It is a cold brew concentrate.
Basically, you get one of these bottles, you mix a little bit into a cup with some water to taste.
A little cream if you want.
It is sweetened a little bit.
And so we got samples of this a little while ago.
I'm a huge fan.
And, you know, we've been trying to figure out how to do a ready-to-drink version of Castro for a while.
And we still haven't quite gotten there because this is a concentrate, meaning you do want to mix it with water, maybe milk, however you want to do it.
But you can check out the new Cast Brew Vault Black.
Get it while you can at castbrew.com because we only have 372 available and it's going to go quick.

I'm excited to be on with you, Amber, because I think we've exchanged some hot takes over the past couple months on my show, which you can watch at noon live on Timcast Rumble channel.
We, for no reason, have ready to laugh track because not that anyone needs to know when to laugh, but it actually is funny to play it at inappropriate times.
So, like, we'll save it for the uncensored portion of the show, most likely.
But anywhere that needs a little levity, we're going to make weird noises.
I'm actually half kidding.
I don't even know why we have it, but maybe it'll be funny.
All right, let's jump into the story from CNN.
U.S. military prepared to strike Iran as early as this weekend, but Trump has yet to make a final call.
Sources say, CNN reporting: U.S. military is prepared to strike Iran as early as this weekend.
The White House has been briefed.
The military could be ready for an attack by the weekend after a significant buildup in recent days of air and naval assets in the Middle East.
The sources said, When one source cautioned that Trump has privately argued both for and against military action and polled advisors and allies on what the best course of action is, it was not clear if he would make a decision by this weekend.
He is spending a lot of time thinking about this.
So, I'm hearing from Beltway Scuttlebutt, people who work in D.C., you know, we had a lot of friends there.
Trump's ready to push the button, and Trump wants to push the button.
It doesn't mean he will push the button, but I'm hearing that he very much is ready to just do it.
He wants to do it, and I think he's actually being held back.
I think there are some advisors that are basically saying just give it some time, and maybe the pressure will force Iran to cut a deal of some sort.
I don't think a deal is going to happen.
I think when you put an estimated one-third of your naval forces just outside their country, you're basically just ready to swing, take a punch.
But I don't know what you're hearing down in DC, Amber.
Well, actually, I was for the longest time anti-intervention, but my mind was changed when Lib Hero America439 on X sent a tweet to me of a Trump supporter looking sad with a bunch of award, a bunch of ribbons saying fell forward again award, and it bruised my ego.
No, I don't think this will be Iraq or Afghanistan 2.0 if we do go in.
I do not support the U.S. intervening in this capacity.
I'm not an absolutist.
I think it's stupid to be like the U.S. should never for any reason.
No, there's sometimes there are reasons.
I do think, however, if Trump does go in, we have already seen with Venezuela, Trump does not operate like in the past 20 years.
And just because we had these abysmal failures 20-some odd years ago doesn't mean military operations will be the same today.
And I think it's fair to say many neocons, despite what I can criticize these guys for, have pointed out that we as a generation are traumatized by the failures of the Bush-era foreign policy.
And it doesn't mean every intervention all the time will be bad.
That being said, my deeper concerns are they have not justified to us there's no justification as to why we should engage in a joint military strike to flatten the Iranian regime.
I certainly understand the protests are really bad.
The people have been pissed at their government for some time.
Iran's funding a bunch of terror.
But for a full-scale knockout regime change, I think they would need to come out.
Trump would need to make an address to the nation, and he would need to explain the serious risk to this country to justify it.
I don't agree with what we've seen so far, this massive buildup, because I read the news all day, every day, and all I've seen is, yes, it's bad in the Middle East.
Yes, Iran is engaging in the funding of enemies and things like this, but it's played off like status quo, not like imminent threats.
I mean, for one, I've always had this frustration as a Zoomer is because in the same way that millennials would always talk about how boomers would always equate everything to World War II, I feel like millennials always equate things to GWAT because that was the environment that millennials sort of like became politically aware in.
And so I get a little frustrated because I'm like, clearly the Trump administration operates, like to Tim's point, operates much differently than previous administrations when it comes to how they handle affairs, how they handle geopolitical affairs and these sorts of things.
So, I mean, I'm like, I'm very skeptical to speak with Quagmire.
Two, the second point is I'm not even sure if regime change is the victory condition for Trump and co here because they've said that it's the nuclear program.
That's their main concern.
And so I think if we were to go back in, it would be strikes on the nuclear program.
Well, and the third point here is Trump a month or two ago made the statement that if they touch protesters, if they start hugging protesters, we will go in.
That is a very hard stance that you cannot back down on.
So this idea that it's like, oh, but the protests in Iran, oh, please, they are in Canada, the MAID program, medical assistance dying, is killing young people simply for being depressed.
And according to the family in this story, which we could probably get into later, but she said that she believes the doctor instructed her son on how to deteriorate his body so that he could qualify.
So when the doctor says to you, you're too healthy for us to kill you, stop eating and start dying, and then maybe we can get you qualified.
So anyway, not to jump into that story, the idea that we care about the protesters.
And I definitely don't think the win condition is the nuclear program.
Absolutely not.
I think the nuclear program is a concern, but a psychotic fundamentalist regime is the principal concern.
And there's two main factors there.
They fund fanatics and extremists in the region, and that's a problem for trade in the Red Sea through the Suez Canal.
So we want that to stop.
And more importantly, through this, they oppose the liberal economic order and the petrodollar.
Now, that I'm not persuaded by, this argument that everybody should operate under the quote-unquote AOC's rules-based order of the United States.
But the principal reasons why the U.S. wants to take down Iran and their government is because they're not playing ball with the IMF, the petrodollar, the Swiss payment system, et cetera, et cetera.
Well, the reason I'm like skeptical that the victory condition for the United States here is regime change is, I mean, A, just what the Trump administration has said, and then obviously what happened last summer.
But then B, the Trump administration and kind of this philosophy of this, I guess you would call it like the new right or something along those lines, is that they believe that the Middle East is naturally liberalizing anyway.
This is why they're like building out the Abraham Accords is they're banking on the fact that these countries are liberalizing.
They're becoming more friendly towards the West.
So I think in the back of the heads of a lot of these decision makers and the Trump administration is they're thinking like, hey, on a long enough timeline, Iran is liberalizing.
If you look at, if you go and you go on YouTube and you type in nightlife in Tehran and you see people walking around with a camera in Tehran, women aren't wearing headscarves.
They're like having parties.
They're like, again, it's not quite New York City, but it definitely doesn't seem like this fundamentalist Islamic regime like the Ayatollah sort of portrays themselves as.
Well, toppling, yeah, obviously toppling it is beneficial for the Abraham Accords, but I'm just saying that I think they're under the impression that the Ayatollah is on borrowed time anyway.
And so there's not really much sense in sort of allocating all these resources, potential, again, having a potential quagmire.
When instead, they just eliminate the problem of the nuclear program and then continue businesses.
Well, he's trying to rebuild our position in the world as the world's police because after the Afghanistan withdrawal and then Ukraine breaking down, everything happening under the Biden administration's nose, the way the world viewed the United States during that period was that we're actually, in many ways, insufficient as the world's police.
So Trump is trying to stitch together that vision again for the world.
He's not really concerned with how the world, like what their opinion is on our actions.
That's an in-house discussion over whether or not we should intervene in Venezuela, whether or not we shouldn't intervene in Iran.
I don't really care what China has to say about this, or I don't even really care about what the Europeans have to say, quite frankly, because it's our affairs.
It's an in-house discussion.
But all this to say, I mean, I'm not thrilled about any sort of intervention in Iran either.
But again, if you look at what happened last summer, it went quite well.
We do know that Ayatollah, like, he's a saber wagger.
He just tweets all day, but he doesn't actually really back it up.
I could see a situation where they just maximize pressure and they cut a deal with him and he leaves.
I mean, that's actually like a pretty realistic scenario here.
Well, one of the theories that I see here is that all of this bustering in the press and the scuttle button DC is just to create buzz that we're going to blow them up.
Well, their top intel guys are going to go to the supreme leader and they're going to be like the entire U.S. media is saying Trump's about to press the button.
Well, Russia has, they still would have some tools available in Europe where like, okay, they could start ripping apart some of these energy supplies, these sorts of things.
They could really take the gloves off in Ukraine if they really wanted to, and that would cause some problems for America that would force our hand again.
So it's like Russia does have options, and then they could also directly support Iran.
We have a tweet here from Mr. Obvious, breaking the hacker known as 4chan, has announced the U.S. is going to be launching a military strike on Iran.
It turns out Venezuela was a test run.
If this is true, it'll jumpstart World War III and the U.S. economy and cause a total ish storm.
Be advised, we are going to war.
Now, we don't know if this is true or not, this post, because, hey, it's the internet.
But someone on, I believe 4chan said, I posted yesterday with a 36-hour timeline.
We are now in the 24-hour window.
Look for a significant number of Iranian leadership to be exterminated.
The leadership of Iran is made up of a secret council of 22 military and political leaders who meet regularly in a bunker in Tehran.
One of their members is a Mossad agent.
Needless to say, this group goes first.
Israel knows after the last few years, this is the time to end this issue, and tactical nukes will take out most of Iran's missile infrastructure in the first strike.
Tehran will go in the first wave with a false flag attack set up for Israel to kick things off.
Cheers.
He added, or I believe this is the first statement, Venezuela was a test for what is happening in Iran.
A large part of the Iranian military and leadership will be vaporized in the opening salvos.
Israel will use tactical nukes to take out Iranian missiles and their bases.
We're about T minus three days now.
I want to say real quick skepticism, the use of tactical nukes is a bold statement.
Well, but this does sort of align with what I was thinking: we're also at the precipice of, we're at this time in history where the United States has weapons that the rest of the world doesn't have.
Just insane vibration tech that makes people piss their pants and die.
And in 10 years, the rest of the world will have it.
These conversations around, say, like ULF generators, you know, like, so, so this is crazy.
What we heard in Venezuela is that apparently one of these collectivos reported that there was like a boom, and then all of a sudden they all became violently ill.
And that is in line with the conspiracy theories about what's called an ultra-low frequency generator.
Basically, that these very ultra-low frequencies can cause you to feel sick instantly.
And the government has weaponized a very powerful low-frequency pulse to disable people.
But that conversation was 20-some odd years ago.
My point is, while I do agree with you, maybe they're being like, they're saying like, we should use it now.
The weapons the government has would probably blow your effing mind.
When it comes to actual war, they're going to do things you didn't even imagine because you don't know about the weapons they got.
Bro, let me tell you this.
10 years ago, heck, what is it?
This is 14 years ago.
There was a Kickstarter for micro drones that fly like insects.
We know that the U.S. government has tiny micro drones that can fly.
Very, very small.
Bro, we're watching universities create liquid robots that can segment.
Guys, guys, the heart attack gun is not even a crazy thing to imagine.
Basically, you shoot someone with a dart that's got some, I'm not going to describe exactly what, but they're.
Toxin, I mean, no, not even toxins, bro.
Not even toxins.
Let's just call it, without getting too much detail, potassium combination.
Just that's it.
And then it causes a heart attack.
And they've had this for 50 some odd years, longer, probably.
So anyway, my point is, if they want to go boots on the ground, they're going to be using probably conventional weapons on the surface, but the special weapons, man, you won't even know they happened.
I bet they can release tiny drones and they can just swarm them in and they'll take out leadership very easily.
But to this, like with this post and then some of the rumors that I think all of us are hearing coming out of the Beltway, something we have to keep in mind here is in the lead up to the Venezuela operation and then the actual Venezuela operation itself, there was zero rumors.
It was airtight.
It just happened and everyone was surprised.
Even people at the top level of military intel were shocked that it happened.
Sure, but it's like, but that was because of like the fleet movements, which are impossible to hide.
But it's like with this, all of a sudden there's rumors everywhere.
Everyone's got scoops, this sort of thing.
That just seems obvious to me that the Trump administration is trying to put, like they're trying to build leverage here.
They're trying to put pressure on the Iranians.
So these are tactical leaks that are happening here because again, they have demonstrated with Venezuela that if they want to keep it airtight, they can.
On the human sources front, I expect that we probably have way more than we realize because we obviously had people in the Venezuelan regime who were helping the American government.
But also recently, the CIA has been releasing a series of videos trying to convince CCP officials to leak to the United States.
I don't know that they're doing those because they work, but to send a message to China that we have some of your guys.
And that's precisely why I think those leaks were coming out about certain Chinese officials being tossed out or executed or what have you is that they were trying that China was trying to send a counter signal.
Well, this is what happens to you if you leak to the United States.
Yeah, well, I mean, we saw the Iranians shake out a lot of, like, they weren't high-level officials, but during the protests, you know, these guys were, some of them are defecting.
These are like more like ethnic-related sort of blow-ups.
But like the Iranians were starting to clean house a little bit.
They were freaked out because, again, a lot of intel was getting passed along to Western news outlets and no one knew how.
You know, if there's one thing I learned from Democrats, it's that the only thing that matters is that you maintain your order.
And what I mean by that is if we believe in a functional, classically liberal society, then we must oppose by all means anyone who seeks to subvert it or destroy it.
So if you are operating within the confines of a constitutional United States of America and you seek to operate within the confines of the Constitution and you debate on policy, we are good.
But if you're a communist who is lying, cheating, and stealing to burn it all down, now we've got a problem and we have to stop that from happening.
Well, what's happening is that the government is changing from a liberal democracy, from a liberal democratic republic to a technocratic system where de facto, we say we got free speech, but a corporation can take away your bank account or mute your account, which demeans your free speech in the modern technical era with electricity.
We don't have horses and we don't need to send our representatives off to the Capitol one day.
Maybe we'll hear back from you.
Like, bro, this is a fast-moving intelligent world now.
So the technocracy.
It's like, I think it's going to be kind of a, maybe, I want it to be a quadripolar world where it's just, it's just going to be technocratic spy control, dude.
It's going to be either you give us your information or we're going to spy on you and take it.
You might think with humans able to kill each other easier because we have airplanes and bigger weapons that it would have happened faster, but it's like driving on a road past someone.
You don't want to hit the guy, just like real life.
I knew a guy a long time ago, and he told me, young college guy, when I was like in my early 20s, and he said, terrorism doesn't exist.
I don't believe it.
And obviously, you know, some crazy guy might, you know, plant the bomb or something, but he was like, no, like actual planned terror doesn't exist.
Because he worked at a university in California in laboratory conditions.
And he said that they have chemicals that are cheap, easily obtained.
And if you touch a certain amount, you die.
And he was like, I don't believe that, you know, when they say all this stuff is real, it actually is.
Because if someone really wanted to terrorize somebody, there are powders that you can sprinkle in public and then people would just start dropping dead.
And it's like for 20 bucks.
Nobody does this stuff.
He's like, I don't actually think people want to do these things.
You know, the argument being that terrorism is intended to create shock and awe, not actually kill people.
Yeah, they had the Christmas truce in World War I where they got out of the trenches, both the Germans and the French, and they were like singing together.
And then it was their commanders were like, you have to fight them or we're going to kill you.
And so they were like, well, all right, back to war.
So they didn't actually predict it, but this clip is hilarious because it kind of shows you that this Iran thing has been going on for a very, very, very long time.
But I do love that opening line where she's like, Khomeini died years ago.
I mean, could the military industrial complex just like commandeer his ex account and have him post like, I think you should all die, you Americans, and plus Epstein was our friend or something.
Like just put Khomeini in the Epstein files and then get war.
Actually, hold on, hold on.
This is why I have questions about the military industrial complex right now, because the perfect opportunity to evade Iran was to have information come out in the files that Epstein worked for Iran.
I'm not saying literally, legitimately.
I'm saying if the military industrial complex wanted to propagandize and get Americans support war, all they had to do.
Like, hey, one, he was like, a woman is like a beautiful flower and you don't want to pluck away a petal because every time you pluck away a petal, it's like a, and it was like these really thoughtful like yearn posts.
And I was like, we would know if he was on the Epstein list, it's wrong.
Do you remember back when a lot of the social media censorship was happening around 2016 that one of the common arguments from conservatives was like, how can you ban Alex Jones, but Khomeini's allowed to have an X account or Twitter account?
I mean, on top of the fact that, you know, as Tate, you pointed this out earlier, not on the show, but you were like, the state of commentary is a streamer reacting to a streamer, commenting on a streamer.
So what happened is that it evolves so that you can put their video in your video so that people have context for the response, but people talk about each other instead of to each other.
It's a great evolution.
You need to really go at you when you're talking to someone.
You know, I met last year with Netanyahu, and the most offensive thing about it was that they wanted to convince me that we should go to war with Iran, but they never offered me $7,000.
Shame.
You know how that feels when it's like, we expect you to do this for free, but other people get paid?
I was really let down because like I think all the funny Jews came to America because then like every time you meet Israel, there's not really that funny.
They're just like really obsessed about their future.
And now what something happened in New York like overnight.
No, no, for real, because there's videos of just feces everywhere.
And I lived in New York for five years.
I never have seen anything like this.
And my thought is one of two things.
One, like the city workers, once Momdani got in, were like, screw him, I'm not doing work.
Or it could be that there was a basic administrative function like flicking a switch that Mamdani didn't know to do.
So in all seriousness, it could be like his administration gets in and they were unaware that the previous administration does some kind of remittance for, you know, waste services on a certain date and they didn't do it.
So then the services didn't get done.
But something happens where there's garbage piling up everywhere in New York and there's feces everywhere in New York.
That was a comment that I actually had a couple, like a couple of weeks ago or whatever.
Like you assume that the new administration still has all of the proper functioning branches of government and just that Momdani comes in and there would still be your normal services.
I was blown away that he's actually managed to basically run the city into the ground so fast.
Well, no, but what happened is Eric Adams, like the one thing you got to hand it to him, and I can say this, I was living in New York City.
I saw the transition from de Blasio to Eric Adams.
As Eric Adams, like the one thing he would always point to as like the dub of his mayoral like administration was that he actually like got the city quite clean.
Like the rat population did decline quite extensively.
So when Mamdani came in, the first thing he did was undo every single executive order that Eric Adams had declared.
And a lot of those executive orders related to sanitation, related to, again, extermination.
So these sorts of things happen.
You reverse that.
Suddenly, all these city workers who were once tasked to sanitation are now tasked elsewhere.
And that's why you're seeing this like massive city.
Finally, it only took the guy claiming he did want to defund the NYPD, who then claimed during his campaign he didn't want to defund the NYPD to get in so that he could defund the NYPD.
He was just talking about canceling 5,000 new officer hires.
Now he's basically holding the city hostage, saying, guys, did you watch Mamdani's budget proposal?
I died.
You know why we had a laugh track today?
We added a laugh track because I watched Mamdani say, it's not fair that we pay 54.5% taxes to the state, but only get back 40%.
To which my response is to Mayor Mamdani, from each according to their ability to each according to their need.
So for a communist to be like, why are they making me do more work, but not giving me what I want is just so absolutely ironic.
It's not even a fire truck on fire.
The fire truck has just melted into molten goop.
That's how ironic it is.
Now the dude is saying, if we don't tax the rich, by the way, 10% of the top earners have already fled the city.
He says, if we don't tax the rich more, we're going to tax the middle and working class.
And it's not my fault.
In reality, what he's saying is, we know we can't tax the wealthy anymore because they're already fleeing.
So we're framing this as though the taxes on you are because of them, which we predicted.
Exactly what we had said.
This is what Venezuela does.
This is what the communists do.
When their policies invariably fail, they say someone else did it to us.
So now Momdani is saying it's Hochul's fault.
It's the state's fault that we have to raise your taxes and people are going to get behind them because they're dumb.
Trump goes on TV and he's like, the economy is doing great.
And then literally anybody who goes to the grocery store is like, yeah, that's not true.
But maybe the play is this.
New York's taxes are so high, you combine that.
I mean, if you're a regular working class person, you're paying something like 13% to New York based on the state and city tax on top of your federal income tax.
And so you've got $10 eggs and then you're losing half your money.
You're going to be like, I got to move somewhere else.
So maybe Trump is just strangling out these commies.
I was hanging out in D.C. a couple weeks ago, and I was having an argument with these gentlemen who I said people don't have as much money as you think they do.
People think that Jeff Bezos can snap his finger and then build a skyscraper.
That's only technically correct.
I was like, Bezos makes something like, what does he get, like a million bucks a year?
He pays himself like $83,000 a month or something.
So it just comes out to a million.
Then with bonuses, he actually takes home only a couple million.
His wealth is tied to his stock, which he can only sell in certain intervals.
And I'm like, so the amount of money that guy probably has liquid is probably very, very little.
And then most of his assets are going to be in some kind of either semi-liquid or hard asset.
And these people don't believe it.
They're like, no, man, that dude's a billionaire.
He's probably got $100 million.
And I'm like, that's insane to sit on cash like this.
The trust has the money has the way it works is that the money in the trust has never been realized.
Trusts can make investments and sell and trade and do all these things, but until an individual extracts that, a beneficiary takes it out of the trust, they have not received a realized gain to pay taxes on.
So most rich people just buy these Delaware trusts and say, I never made any money.
The trust is making money, but that's just an investment.
Yeah, well, I mean, you even see, I mean, like New York City, a great example of like how the elite function in New York City.
Now, again, this is neither here nor there, but like look at NYU.
Like NYU is the definition of like kind of this new elite, this new global elite in a lot of ways.
None of the kids at NYU, their families or them themselves are paying taxes in New York City.
They live in New York City.
They have that New York City lifestyle, these sorts of things.
None of them are paying any New York City taxes.
All these taxes really affect the people that are actual business owners in New York City, these sorts of things.
And then like to Amber's point, I mean, the way that these top guys like access wealth is they can just take leverage against their own assets and they can have access to like liquid capital instantly through that.
Elon's an exception because he has a massive pay package now.
So he's actually like a rare exception because he actually just decided to, again, extract a massive pay package out of Tesla.
It's a trillion.
I think he got his trillion dollars or something approximate from that.
He got something very close, but he's an exception.
There's a story of him going into a casino and putting $20 on blackjack and losing.
Like, well, I'm done.
That guy's super rich too, but they don't live this way.
Sure, to be fair, like they're on private jets, but people also don't understand private jets are fake.
What I mean by that is when you see a video of an influencer on a private jet, that's fabricated.
Flying on a private jet is uncomfortable.
You don't got a lot of room and there's no snacks, no food.
And, you know, I've been on some good jets where they could play a movie, but they really don't because it's an inconvenience.
So you're really in a cramped space.
The convenience of it is there's no security.
You literally walk into what's called an FBO, a fixed space operator.
They say, right this way, you get on this, on this jet where you can't really stand up.
Even the better ones, they're still kind of cramped.
And then you fly.
There's nothing.
Maybe on a good one, you'll get internet.
We've had internet a couple times.
And then you land.
It's not decadent.
It's not opulent.
It's just faster.
For security purposes, it brings you closer to where you want to go.
So if you're landing at an executive airport or an FBO, usually you can get closer to your destination instead of having to land at an international commercial airport and driving.
My point is, people assume that Elon as this ultra-wealthy trillionaire, he's like on his own private 757.
That's probably not happening at all.
Considering that it's hard for him to liquidate those resources that he owns in like Tesla and SpaceX, he only has access like Phil was pointing out, like what, 800 million?
I also want to say, Amber, you can probably intellectualize this idea.
This is like a good dynamic we have is where I like throw something out and then she explains it.
I hate like this Warren Buffett wholesome Chungus wealthy, like where he's like exorbitantly wealthy, but he's like, I go to McDonald's and drive a corolla.
I'm like, if you're wealthy, if you're that rich, I want you to live in like a super villain.
Yeah, I want you to be like covering Native American reservations and peanut butter just for no reason, just like blowing stuff.
People have an Instagram and MTV and reality TV view of what, well, I shouldn't say MDV because they're basically dead at this point, but they have a reality TV view of what wealth is because the TV and the narrative machine creates a view of wealth for people so that they assume.
Let me put it like this.
Most ultra wealthy people flying private jets don't even own them.
It's just a charter.
Just you charter them.
It's like calling a taxi.
And it's not that often.
They call a broker and say, is it available?
And the cost for a private jet, I would argue, is about two to three times the cost for a first-class ticket.
So if you need to fly, so we flew the crew from West Virginia to New York when we did the big time square run.
It was $13,000 for eight people.
So it's a little bit more than first class would have been.
And that meant that we didn't have to wait for, well, I don't know if you went, Ian.
Instead of everyone going to the airport, waiting, and then it's like five hours to the airport, then land, we literally just 20-minute ride to the airport, walk on the plane, land, 20-minute drive, and we were at our destination.
It cut down like four or five hours.
And with, I think we had like nine seats because a person can actually sit in the bathroom.
And so it's $13,000.
So it's a little bit more than a grand per person, which a first-class ticket would have been $700 or $800.
So we were like, okay, it's going to cost us maybe an extra four grand to bring everybody to New York, but it saves us a day of work.
Yeah, you run the opportunity cost of the day of work that you would have spent going commercial and you actually come out ahead because it would have been more than four grand.
There's like eight of us.
If we all, you know, putting all eight employees for one day of work is probably worth $20,000 of labor.
This is why these things exist, though, because there are people where it's not me, but there are people like Tucker where if they go to any normal restaurant, it's going to cause a problem.
So they go to these special private, you know, high-end places.
If you're like, if you're on a night out with the squad, one way to get morale really high to hype up the squad really quickly is go to the bar, prepay for like a bucket of beers, and then tell them when they bring the beers to the table to say this is on the house.
That is a killer move.
So then they bring the bucket of beers out and then they go like, this one's on the house.
Table gets hype, morale improves.
I think that's the poor man equivalent.
That's the working class equivalent to the steakhouse with no label.
What's funny is we've kind of asked my father-in-law about this because we're like, well, what do you know?
Because, Miranda, we all want to know about the UFOs, right?
We all want to know what's going on.
And he played a little coy with us.
And so that, of course, led us to believe.
Eric and I were like, oh my gosh, if he won't even like fully tell us, maybe there's more to it.
And then I have just heard kind of around that I think he's actually said, I think my father-in-law has actually said it, that there is some speech that he has that I guess at the right time, and I don't know when the right time is, he's going to break out and talk about.
And it has to do with maybe some sort of extraterrestrial life, so to speak.
I just, you know, I look at things from the perspective of the vastness of our universe.
And I'm a kind of a numbers person.
You know, I don't get nervous flying because the odds are very much in your favor flying.
The odds that anything will happen to you are far greater in a car than they ever will.
But I actually, I think there is a decent probability that Trump is.
So I believe Trump does have a speech.
I believe that the speech in all probability has to do with just standard military technology and national security threats.
But I believe there is probably a decent probability.
What, this could be like 0.02 or something, that it is actually about extraterrestrial intelligence.
And the reason why I entertain this as actually possible, meaning like what, one in a thousand, one in 2000, is that Donald Trump, or I should say, the media and our culture has for some time now been floating that aliens are real and no one cares.
Like the Obama statement was potentially a trial balloon.
Obama says, of course, they're real, but no one cared.
Then he walks it back and says, no, no, no, I just meant that they're probably real.
I think we're at the point where if there really were aliens, the government could announce It and no one would care.
I don't think they'll ever admit it publicly because one of the concerns, and I asked some of these people who are big into UAPs about it back when we used to have them on Rising, they would say that the U.S. government and the military would be worried about tipping their hand if they had some kind of technology that they assumed was extraterrestrial, but actually was some other nation's more advanced technology than the U.S. has.
Well, actually, the Chinese girls that were interviewed had a really good sense of humor and they've just pointed at all of them really quickly as they're laughing.
There are people who, like, online, there's conspiracy theories that the reason the gray aliens, like, they've got big heads and they're gaunt and they have big eyes.
And people believe, no, they believe that in the future, China takes over and it's a bunch of Asians and they go back in time and they're wasting away their bodies because they use technology and they're actually just Asians.
But if Einstein is right, like the speed of light isn't just the speed of light, it's the speed of causality.
It's the speed of cause and effect.
Like it takes eight minutes for the light from the sun to get to the to the to the earth.
And if the if the sun uh if the sun disappeared, not only would it take eight minutes for the light to get here for us to know, but it would take eight minutes for the effect of gravity to get here too.
So the speed of light isn't going around.
Yeah, the speed of light isn't just the speed.
It's not the speed, just the speed limit of light.
Warp drive is some 1950s BS Einstein garbage where they're like, what if we use some kind of dense energy to warp space-time and then we move in between space-time like a golf ball moving through a large hose that you squeeze?
It's like, that's 1950 stuff.
You want to know how we actually do it?
We need to find the markers that signify our coordinates in the universe in the data.
And then we just backspace, backspace, backspace.
139, enter.
And then Tate just appears on the other side of the planet.
It's a true way to say it, but what you would do is you'd map the matrix of where you want to go, the XYZ axis of what you'd map in this cube of reality, what is in every point in this box, what it is, how much of it there is, and where it is.
I've had this anti-teleport teleportation position for a while now because you would get arrested for exposure because when you teleport, you would be naked because your clothes are not a part of you.
If they could teleport your clothes with you, then how do you separate your shoes from the ground?
Then you just teleport everything with you when you treat.
By that virtue, then all of your gut bacteria, all of the non-like that concept doesn't work because there are things inside your body that are not connected to your cells.
I guess from Mediaite, Crockett throws Colbert under the bus.
Federal government did not shut down this segment.
Guys, this story is crazy.
And I would actually argue that it's criminal because I believe it constitutes fraud.
Now, I'm being careful here because I don't know for sure, but here's what happened: Colbert goes on his show and lied and claimed that CBS told him he could not have this Democrat Tellerico on his show because of equal time rules.
The Trump administration didn't want you to see this interview, Tellerico says on X. As it turns out, CBS publicly stated wrong.
We simply told Colbert that if he did the interview, it could trigger equal time laws, which would mean Jasmine Crockett would have to be booked on his show.
Or they said, here are some ideas to give her equal time.
He lied and claimed Trump blocked him.
And he did this so that he could drum up this public support.
And it is being reported now that Tallerico raised $2.5 million from their hoax.
So Colbert goes on his show and lies about the federal government tricking people into believing the government was censoring a Democrat and he raised tons of money when in reality, the only person being censored was Jasmine Crockett and was censored by Colbert himself.
CBS, I believe, had already released their initial statement about what happened before Tallerico even made that post, too.
So he already knew that he was lying.
And I mean, similar thing happened back when the FCC threatened, was it Kimmel with the news distortion clause?
Basically, for a long time, the FCC gave a lot of leeway to these late-night shows because they were viewed as entertainment.
But the interviews that they did with politicians were considered bona fide news interviews, which you get an exception under these various clauses, including the equal time rules.
But they're not bona fide news interviews, as we've seen, right?
Like if these people go on there and they start joking around or they play a game with one another, all of a sudden you lose that exemption.
But the FCC just hasn't done anything about it.
Now they're actually doing something about it.
And CBS obviously is acutely aware of the fact that they are violating these rules.
And not only do they not want to give Jasmine Crockett the seat, but whoever else is in that primary, any of those low-level candidates would also be subject to this.
I actually saw Caitlin Collins went on Colbert and defended Tallarico and Stephen Colbert by saying, Well, would any of these people want conservative talk radio or Republican talk radio to have to give equal time to Democratic candidates?
She clearly doesn't know anything about GOP talk radio because, yes, they do invite the Democratic opponents every time they invite a Republican on, and they would love to have a Democrat on their show so they could rip them to shreds and ask some difficult questions.
She's just never seen it because the Democrats don't go on platforms that they don't agree with.
Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication in interstate or foreign commerce, any writing, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years or both.
Now, the question is: does I believe wire is covered under internet?
And the argument, the question then is, under 18 USC 1343, did Tallarico and Colbert devise this scheme to obtain money through false or fraudulent pretenses transmitted over wire?
Between CBS and this Tallarico guy, what their communications literally were, because it may have been a truth that exists in reality he didn't know about.
You go to a jury and say, hey, they should have had Jasmine Crockett on under equal time, but they claimed CBS barred them.
Here's the letter that was sent from CBS to Colbert before the show aired saying he's not being barred from doing the interview.
Why did they both then pretend CBS did bar them from doing it?
They're lying because Colbert got the notification from CBS lawyers before doing the show.
In fact, you know what?
This is a slam dunk.
Colbert stated he actually, after he said, every script is approved and after he spoke, they called him backstage for notes on what he was legally allowed to say.
He tried making it seem like they agreed with what he was saying instead of just telling him he was illegally allowed to say certain things.
But that's Colbert stating outright that he had conferred with the legal team and he knew full well he was allowed to do the interview and it was not blocked by Donald Trump.
Now, the Donald Trump is the important question because if CBS said, you can do the interview, but you got to interview Jasmine Crockett.
In no way did CBS insinuate that Trump barred him from doing it.
It was a letter from CBS's lawyers, not from the FCC.
So for Colbert to then say, Trump's FCC is doing this, and for Tallarico to say, here's the interview Trump doesn't want you to see.
But I think they've always known this because you think back 2016, Jimmy Fallon, when he, the Fallon on the Tonight Show, and he had Trump on, but then he also had like Mark Arubio on.
He had, he had, I think, Jeb Bush went on.
Chris Christie went on.
Like they knew Trump was box office.
We got to bring him on.
They don't want to bring Mark.
Who cares what Mark Rubio has to say on the Fallon show?
But they have to because they like, so this has been a long-standing understanding in late night television that, yeah, you have to bring these people on.
So that's all they were communicating to Colbert is like.
And instead of like at least trying to hide the ball a little bit, he's like, Christians should support abortion and Christians should support gay marriage because Christians want you to be happy.
If the FCC warns you you shouldn't do something, CBS can still tell them to kick rocks and do it and take the fine or the punishment or whatever it is.
They don't get to dictate what gets broadcast on the front end.
You know, but what I will say is this is at this point, I don't know how much matters other than at least they're willing to destroy their enemies and the right certainly is not.
I'm quite comfortable saying, yes, I am triggered when I see Tylerico, again, just wear my faith as a skin suit.
It's absolutely horrific to see because it's the complete opposite.
He was like, you know, Christ wants you to be happy, et cetera, et cetera.
It's like actually Christ's core message, what is the actual prerequisite for salvation is denying yourself.
The opposite of denying yourself is an abortion because an abortion, oh, wait, this baby is going to potentially cost me a promotion, so I should kill it.
That is the complete opposite of denying yourself.
You're literally sacrificing a human being at the altar of your life.
It's just like those anti-ICE protesters who went into the church and went after the pastor because they believed he was affiliated with ICE.
And all of the Democrats justified it by saying, well, he's hypocritical if he's working with ICE to deport people because we need to be welcoming and nice to people.
And it's such this like surface level BS reading of the Bible.
They pick and choose which little parts.
This is literally a meme on the Christian right where we point out that people who don't actually care about the faith or read the Bible or go to church on a regular basis will intentionally manipulate to try to get Christians to do what they want.
I actually have a bone to pick with Tallarico going way back before all of this because there was this profile, series of profiles in one of the major news outlets.
I think it might have been New York magazine, but they did this photo shoot with all of the up-and-coming Democrats.
They had this tufted red leather chair, and they would take the chair around with them around the country to meet these candidates.
And they would put the chair in a space that was supposedly like representative of the candidate.
So for Maxwell Frost, they had it like on the streets of D.C.
They took the chair to Texas.
They put James Tallarico in it.
It wasn't in a church.
It wasn't anything to do with politics.
They put him on a football field.
So I'm thinking, okay, this guy must be like a football coach.
Oh, that's cool.
The Democrats finally got like a real guy to run for Congress.
And then I looked into his background, zero affiliation with football.
The talking filibuster is a rule already where how it works is that they have to abide by the two speech rule.
If they do the talking filibuster, basically every member of the Senate gets the opportunity to make two speeches during on the same legislative question during the same legislative day.
So you'd say, oh, well, certainly they could run out the clock if it's on the same day because the 50, the 40-something Democrats could just all do two speeches and it would be over and then they'd have to restart the process.
But no, because congressional rules say that in relation to legislative business, I am quoting directly from Congress.gov: the day during which a senator can make no more than two speeches on the same question is not a calendar day, but a legislative day.
A legislative day ends only with an adjournment so that whenever the Senate recesses overnight rather than adjourning, the same legislative day continues into the next calendar day.
So they could literally force Democrats to give up by not allowing them to sleep or by refusing to adjourn the legislative session.
And eventually they would just get so tired, they would give up because nobody in Congress likes to work.
That's actually, no, actually, I think you just accidentally wrote a great book of political humor where it's like, well, of course I didn't do it on purpose, woman.
So I'm like, it's not going to throw like Christian conservatives under the bus because it's like they're just operating in the system that you gave them.
The conspiracy theory is that the Americans didn't win the revolution.
What happened was, is when the king and parliament found out that the Americans were proposing a system of governance where anyone could run, they said, so why are we wasting money fighting with them?
We can literally just go there and fund elections.
And so the conspiracy theory is that within about, you know, five, 10 years or maybe 10 or 20 years, the British simply just funded candidates who would support the empire and then relo effectively relocated the center of military power for the empire in the United States and then controlled the colonies.
One of my favorite episodes of like Kitchen Rescues is when he finds this hole in the wall restaurant and it's like his old like Caribbean grandma and she's got this tiny hole in the wall with like two tables.
And he's just like, I can't believe how good this food is and nobody knows it's here.
Like during the O.J. Simpson trial where like a lot of black Americans, they viewed it as a wedge issue.
So they just got behind OJ just purely because it turned into like kind of a cultural thing.
I had a micro version of this in college where we were like sitting around.
It was like a bunch of white and black guys and we were all sitting around watching Kitchen Nightmares.
And there was this episode where he went to a restaurant.
I think it was in Memphis actually.
And at the front door, they found a mouse, like a dead mouse laying right by the door.
And the guy that was running the restaurant, this was like a soul food restaurant, immediately accused Gordon of like, hey, you planted this mouse here for television.
This is like crazy.
Why would you do this to us?
And then all the white guys in the room are like, wow, this is crazy.
Like this guy's so crazy for accusing Gordon Ramsey.
And every black person in the room was like, yeah, he definitely planted that mouse.
And it was like a microcosm.
I was like, this is what the O.J. Simpson trial was like.
All right, we're going to go to your Rumble Rants in Super Chat.
So smash the like button, share the show with everyone you know, and it really does help.
And make sure you pick up the new Cast Brew Vault Black at castbrew.com.
No joke.
It is a cold brew concentrate.
So I say mix it.
You want to level that with water to taste?
We originally worked on these single serving ones.
So I actually, at the top of my head, don't have the actual ratio, but I think it's like, you know, a couple, like two ounces of Vault Black with like eight ounces of water or something.
It's a concentrate.
But you'll figure it out.
You'll figure it out.
And check it out at caspook.com.
In the meantime, we're going to grab your rants and chats and see what you guys are on about.
All right.
Drubius Maximus says, first-time super chatter per TimCast tradition.
My wife and I are back from the hospital with baby number three.
We are 28 and 27, married almost seven years, playing on homeschooling.
And he was like discussing these really high-level theological ideas.
Of course, no one's going to tune in if he's just sitting there talking to the camera.
But then he realized if he's playing Minecraft while he was doing it, then a lot of these guys who otherwise would have never tuned in to any theological discussion were all of a sudden becoming amateur theologians because they were watching him and the Minecraft was what engaged them, but then they didn't listen to him talk.
Did you guys see there's a viral clip where it's like Fuentes is ragging on Hitler, and then all these lefties are like Fuentes has abandoned Hitler or something?
We have Captain Winky says, sorry, Tim, I designed interiors for private jets.
These were 737-100s with sofa crescendas with TVs, crescendas, hot tubs just haven't been in one bud.
I am fully and keenly aware.
That being said, when you go to an FBO or like I flew out of Chicago and there was, I can't remember which it was a basketball team that had flown and they had a 37.
These are large corporate teams and they are few and far between.
Most of the time when you go to an FBO, like if you go to Teterboro in Jersey, you might see some G4s.
You might see some like Lear Jets, Gulfstreams, things like that.
The average, bro, I'm telling you, like people who have money don't just burn money.
That's why they have money.
They fly on private jets because they're like, no, no, no, no, I don't care about a hot tub on my plane.
It's like Amber was saying these pro ballers will be like, I'm going to burn 500 grand right now for no reason.
We did a party on like, I don't know, it was like an 80-footer or something in Miami.
I can't remember.
We've done it numerous times.
And it's like five grand for six hours.
And so with 20 people on board and having a party, it's actually not that expensive to go out into the ocean on a big yacht and film this stuff.
But the other thing I want to point out, too, is most of these videos you see, you guys know that the private jets are rented out for video production.
You'll see a dude in a private jet and they're like eating a nice meal and it's got the jacuzzi or whatever is in it and it's not flying and you don't know that there was one woman who walked off a private jet smiling in slow motion and she put on her profile except the engine cover was still on.
And so regular people don't know what that means.
Everybody else was like, yeah, that's like a stationary, that jet is not going anywhere.
And it was cramped, decently comfortable, private jet, no food.
They had a basket of pre-made deli sandwiches.
And I was like, nah, I'm okay.
I don't need it.
And no internet.
And it's a pretty tight space.
These people aren't just like, well, why not spend $500,000 on a 747?
They just don't do it.
Now, basketball teams, when they're transporting the entire team, again, calculate the cost of getting the team safely from point to point.
And I was in Chicago and I can't remember which team it was, but they had a 737 docked at the FBO at Signature.
And the guys there were like, yeah, it's going to be for about a week because they're playing several games.
And this is how they travel.
And the side of the plane said the team's name on it.
You're going to go on there and it's going to be pretty nice.
It's going to have like private rooms, but it's for a team of people and their staff.
So it's still like, you know.
But you can watch videos of like the jet that Taylor Swift has.
She has two.
She had a big one and a small one.
Ultra, ultra wealthy people do have very nice things.
However, again, most of the time you see these things, it's fake because you know who Taylor Swift is when she has a plane.
The other thing I'm going to stress is they charter their planes out.
Meaning, look, not anybody can just get one.
But if you're like your average, let's say you're a YouTuber and you're making $500,000, $600,000 a year.
What are you really spending your money on, right?
So let's say there's a 27-year-old dude.
He's making 500K on YouTube.
It's good money.
It's great money.
Okay.
So he's pulling about 40K per month.
And let's say he's running his own business.
So his taxes aren't coming out per paycheck.
He actually pays taxes quarterly.
So one month he gets 40 grand.
He calls a charter company and says, I want to spend $40,000 on a private jet right now, and I'm going to film on it, and I'm going to make a video of me and my private jet.
He then gets a 37 for a short trip where he's got all these amenities.
It's a one-time thing, and that's the end of it.
And this guy's not even an ultra-wealthy person.
He's just upper class.
So again, my point is, it's typically fake.
The ultra-wealthy people I know rarely do lunatic things like this.
Again, Bill Gates betting 20 bucks.
Don't get me wrong, Dana White famously bets $500,000 on Bach Rotten Blackjet.
That exists too.
I'm not saying it doesn't.
All right, everybody.
We're going to go to the uncensored portion of the show over at rumble.com slash Timcast IRL.
So smash that like button, share the show with every person in your life that you care about.
Well, that was a very unpopular position in the Republican Party in like 2014.
Like back then, it was very much like, you know, we could have amnesty or, you know, just certain deportation.
And he was always saying like he was very clued on the illegal immigration, the rust belt being, you know, rotted out from globalization, immigration, these are things.
He's just saying, like, he was talking about me and John Doyle, and he was like, their continued trusting the plan, like their continued belief in Trump as a viable political project indicates that they're like mentally raped.
I remember I asked him on the show and he didn't have an answer, but he was like, maybe Steve Bannon has a protest vote.
So for me, I don't want to get into, like, I don't want to like, I've always had this thing with, like, with, it's like, I don't want to, like, if he's not sitting here, I don't want to like, you know, make an argument and then he can't respond.
Like, if you're going to say, well, I'm not going to vote, I'm going to withhold my vote and I'm going to try and get all the people that agree with me to withhold their votes so that way the GOP loses, the Democrats will get into power and they will exercise all the power they can and they'll do so much damage to the country.
And I guess his argument is, well, we need to see that kind of damage so that way there's a reaction.
But I don't think that I don't think that the situation would be, you know, I don't think that there would be a reaction like that.
I don't think that there's ever going to be enough people in the United States that are far enough right to satisfy Nick and the people that the type of people that he wants to run.
And so if you have these things structurally strong enough that you can create vacuums in all these little spherical chambers, there will be a lift inside the body of the hall of the floating.
Oh, that's so it'd be like a big boat in the air, but in the hall of the ship would be a bunch of spheres that are interconnected with like cutoff valves that are all vacuumed out.
So for tonight, I'm going to be my typical self and hit y'all hard.
Let's go.

For the whole panel, with allied countries as friendly to pedophilia as the UK and France, as well as others like Norway, openly arresting people over the Epstein list releases.
What is the best that we can hope for from our quote-unquote leadership?
And what do you guys realistically expect them to actually?
And the question is, like, because people say this a lot, but it's like, who?
Who do we arrest?
Because there's nothing new in the Epstein files that we've seen.
Like, most of this is Podesta, still from the Podesta era.
Like, the one name people cite is like Lex Wesner, but it's like, if you go through everything that we have on him, it's you can't present that in court.
So it's like, I agree, but we just don't, we still don't have anything to actually like make arrests.
Maria Farmer's painting, The Settles, was like a picture of everything she remembered when she was being trafficked and victimized on Epstein's Island and all the people and the familiar faces.
Of course, Guy Lane was at the center in this untouchable bubble.
She's this like lizard woman.
And then right below her is this demon, this like multi-headed demon that's Lex Wesner.
It's like the Victoria's secret funnel, you know.
But like Tate was saying, unless there's actual hard evidence, which I'm sure there's not if they did the job right.
It's like we haven't really, we've learned some new names that were involved with Epstein, but we don't have any new like incriminating evidence because it's just unfortunate.
Like any incriminating evidence, like if there truly is an elite cabal, which I believe is the case, I mean, it's not hard to believe at all, they would have had that evidence destroyed by now or it would have been moved somewhere else out, like somewhere else.
So it's like, this is why it's not worth spiking the Trump administration over this.
Because what do we want them to do?
I mean, it's like we just don't have, they're not sitting on, they're not protecting pedophiles.
They're not sitting on evidence right now.
Like they would, that would just be politically, completely politically unviable.
The evidence that we would have to, again, start making arrests is gone.
It's gone.
I mean, again, go back to Biden.
Like, Biden would have you, if Trump was a pedophile or there was other Republicans, they would have utilized it.

Well, they would have thrown that at him for sure.
