Today is June 8th, 2022, and our first story.
In shocking news, a man armed with a gun, a knife, pepper spray, and burglary tools was arrested just near the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, having told police after being caught he was trying to kill the Supreme Court Justice.
This has to stop.
We cannot allow people to incite violence or call for violence.
We need it to stop.
unidentified
In our next story, progressive D.A.
tim pool
in San Francisco, Chesa Bowden, has been recalled!
And in our last story, a Democrat, former Democrat, now Trump supporter, has won a landslide victory, showing the Republicans have one-swing voters.
And things are gonna get crazy in November.
If you like this show, leave us a good review, give us five stars, share the show with your friends.
now, let's get into that first story.
What's going on with the mainstream press, with the establishment left, with Antifa,
It's not okay.
A man with a gun and a knife was just arrested outside Justice Kavanaugh's home, saying that he intended to kill the Supreme Court Justice.
Yo, y'all need to stop.
But they won't stop.
When protesters showed up to the homes of Supreme Court justices, I said, arrest them.
And left-wing psychopaths wrote smear pieces and Occupy activists were like, what is the matter with you, Tim?
It is illegal to protest at a judge's home with the intent of swaying Their opinions.
The court rulings.
To interfere in justice.
And I said arrest them, not because I'm like, people shouldn't protest.
I'm saying, you want non-violent civil disobedience?
Fine.
You get arrested for it.
At the bare minimum.
We need to set the threshold.
And I called this.
I said that if you do not arrest these people, they will take it to the next step.
And that's what's happened.
Now we have to deal with this.
I feel for Kavanaugh.
They have destroyed, they have tried to destroy this man's private life.
They have, in many ways, done it.
From the time he was nominated.
This guy, who I don't even agree with on a lot of his rulings.
That's not the point.
How are we supposed to have a functioning system of governance when they lie about this guy?
The insane stories in the press.
And now this.
Absolutely insane.
NBC News reports, law enforcement officials say an armed man was arrested overnight near the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Officials say the man was armed with a handgun, a knife, and pepper spray.
He was stopped near, but not at, the justice's house.
When police detained him, he said he was there to kill Kavanaugh.
Here's the question.
Was this an attempt to kill him?
I don't know.
The police stopped him before he got to his house.
But this guy, I think it's fair to say, made an attempt.
And I'll tell you why.
I mean, obviously there's going to be a line where people say, was it an attempt or not?
When I announced that I was going to play a show in Nashville, we had a death threat.
And a lot of people said, attempted assassination of Tim Poole, and I was like, come on!
But we actually had a guy show up, security freaked out, and they shut the event down.
I think it's fair to say, an attempt was being made.
In this instance, that's exactly what it was.
A guy had the gun, he had a knife, he had burglar's tools.
I saw one report say he had burglar's tools.
But he got stopped before he could make it there.
He was trying to do it.
They say the arrest was first reported by the Washington Post.
The court confirmed some of the details in a brief statement.
At approximately 1.50 a.m.
today, a man was arrested near Justice Kavanaugh's residence.
The man was armed and made threats against Kavanaugh.
He was transported to Montgomery County Police Second District.
Yo, I live right by here.
Officials say the man was from out of state and arrived by taxi.
Kavanaugh lives in suburban Chevy Chase, Maryland.
His home was also the scene of protests after the leak.
This needs to stop, man.
But you know what?
The thing is, it's not conservatives doing it.
What do we have?
We have January 6th.
And that's all people know about.
Now they're gonna do these dumb primetime hearings that no one's gonna care about.
You know what I care about?
I care about gas prices.
I care about not having to deal with this.
Man, security issues are nightmarish.
We here at TimCast are armed to the teeth.
And I look forward to the Supreme Court's ruling on constitutional carry.
Maybe, Brett Kavanaugh, hear my plea.
You guys are looking over, you are going to be issuing a ruling on New York's gun access lawsuit.
Because New York denies people the right to keep and bear arms.
Y'all can issue a broad ruling.
Issue a broad opinion and say, any requirement for a permit to conceal carry is a violation of the Second Amendment.
And then, we will have to worry a lot less about this.
This guy was armed.
They stopped him, and he expressed his intent, and he was arrested.
This guy.
Here's what I want to see.
I want to be able to defend myself where I live.
When I go out, we've already had the conversations about security.
What happens if we're getting death threats?
People drive by all the time.
We've had people try and break in.
We've had people break in.
And fortunately in Maryland, we are allowed to defend ourselves and we do have security, armed security.
I'm not going to say too much about our security.
But what if I want to go to the bank?
I have to do this ridiculous jumping through.
Now, that's why we're moving to West Virginia.
I already live there, but the business itself, completely relocating everything.
We've already relocated a bunch of our employees.
We're setting up a new property.
Why?
Because they have constitutional carry.
This has got to stop.
I don't want to live this way.
And it's fascinating because right now they're screaming gun control over and over again.
Maryland already has gun control!
It is already illegal to carry a weapon in public in Maryland.
It didn't stop this guy.
Your laws are stupid.
Your proposals are insane.
They make no sense.
If you want to go on TV and defend all of this stuff, Then we get to defend ourselves.
Take a look.
This is absolutely insane.
Let me show you.
Let me show you some of these stories.
Mother Jones.
Protestors showed up outside Kavanaugh's home and the tone police lost its mind.
Asking for civility in the face of systemic violence is playing right into the oppressor's hands.
This is your fault.
Ariana Coghill of Mother Jones.
It's not just her.
Here's Vogue.
Emma Spector.
Inconveniencing Brett Kavanaugh right now is good, actually.
Here's my favorite.
Let me play for you this clip from MSNBC real quick.
unidentified
For law enforcement officials that a man was arrested overnight near the home of Supreme
Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
He was armed with a gun, a knife and pepper spray and told authorities that he was there
to kill the justice.
Now, he was not arrested at the home of the justice.
He is arrested nearby.
Law enforcement officials tell us that the man actually arrived by taxi and was seen
by police and other law enforcement officials that were near the justice's house.
So he was arrested.
He was taken into custody.
It's a little unclear to us right now whether this case is going to be handled by the Maryland
state authorities or by the U.S.
Marshals Service, which provides security for Supreme Court justices as well as other federal judges, or by the FBI.
But the man is said to be from California.
He had said...
He had told the police when he was arrested that he wanted to do this, but that's just about all we know right now.
tim pool
I'll tell you one thing you guys should know.
You guys ran this story from MSNBC.com.
Peaceful protests outside Supreme Court justices' homes is good.
The Supreme Court should not be considered immune to citizen feedback.
Now, of course, you may be saying, Tim, peaceful protests are a good thing.
I agree.
I agree.
Peaceful protests are a good thing.
Except when those protesters are publishing the home addresses of the Supreme Court justices.
This is, this is just wrong.
I want to give a shout out to several leftist publications.
Or I should say maybe, maybe I only have one.
Here we go.
I saw this story from The Independent.
Armed man who made threats to Brett Kavanaugh arrested near Supreme Court Justice's home.
Some suspects come, come as nation's high court considers several cases.
I think this may be the one where they mentioned burglars tools or something.
Yep.
A suspect with at least one weapon and burglary tools.
This guy was trying to kill Brett Kavanaugh.
He just got stopped.
Thank heavens.
This is what I said.
I said, if you allow these protests in violation of the law, they will take it to the next level.
You need to set that barrier as, we respect a peaceful protest, it is against the law, slap on the wrist, take you away, you go home.
That's what they used to do.
Now they're like, it's fine.
So this guy's like, okay, he goes and takes it to the next level.
Armed threats, man.
I just, I just can't.
I'm sick of this stuff.
But let me give a shout out to The Independent.
Take a look at this.
They ran this piece, and The Independent's leftist.
Why protesting the threat to abortion rights outside Kavanaugh's home is wrong.

No one should back down from fighting for women's rights, but I've seen what can happen when the political and
women's rights, but I've seen what can happen when the political and personal get mixed up.
personal get mixed up.
This is from Skylar Baker Jordan, Tennessee.
Good on you, sir.
He says, I just hung up with a pro-life activist. I am pro-choice.
Yeah, we had a civil, enjoyable conversation about what we can do to promote
health and welfare of expectant mothers, especially those with unexpected and unwanted pregnancies.
He goes on to mention the leaked draft, of course, and says, yet I cannot celebrate these
protests with the same relish as many of my fellow travelers on the left. I'm going to have to get back
unidentified
to work.
tim pool
I lament the fact that we've become so uncivil that someone's private home is being protested.
For me, it brings back memories of another time, another place, and the political violence these protests foretold."
Bravo, good sir!
Absolute shout-out and respect to Skylar Baker Jordan, a pro-choice writer at The Independent, a progressive publication, who outright said, no, Because of what this could bring.
He says, cast your minds back to December 2015.
I was a freelance political writer focusing on British politics.
Stella Creasy, the MP for my adopted home of Walthamstow in East London, was casting her vote on whether the UK should engage in a military action in Syria.
A group of protesters set off from a local mosque and headed to her constituency office.
A completely reasonable action for those who opposed the military engagement.
However, in the confusion of social media, reports broke out that the protesters were outside her home.
They were not.
But the confusion was enough to prompt hard-left Labour MP Diane Abbott to tweet out sympathetically that protesting outside someone's home is a step too far.
He says these incidents are all different, and obviously protesting outside of someone's home is not the same as murdering them in broad daylight.
Here's what he says.
The debate over Syria was a debate over Britain's place in the world.
Among other things, the debate would explode the following year when the UK voted to leave the EU.
In the midst of that referendum, Joe Cox, a Labour member of Parliament and a Remainer, was murdered by a far-right extremist.
I have tremendous respect for this piece.
It's not just about the right or the left.
People on the left and the right have been attacked.
He points that out and says we got to separate this.
2011. So too was Sir David Amess, a conservative MP, when he was murdered by
an Islamic State terrorist last year. I have tremendous respect for this piece.
It's not just about the right or the left. People on the left and the right
have been attacked. He points that out and says we got to separate this. He is
right. When the Independent reported on this, again a progressive left-leaning
publication, they did not issue a moral stance on that.
Here we go.
The Washington Post editorial board.
Leave the justices alone at home.
Bravo, guys.
Look, I think these publications are often very bad.
I think they lie, cheat, and steal.
The Washington Post.
But we can all agree.
Let's stop right now.
The politics, the fighting, the chaos.
We don't go to people's houses like this.
No, I'm pretty biased.
I've had people come to my house.
I'm not okay with it.
And the last thing I want to see is a person being shot at my house.
We don't want it to happen.
That's why we say, do not come here.
We have been swatted eight times.
We've had the bomb squad show up.
We've moved.
You may have noticed I have a new set.
Yeah, we've moved.
I'm not going to say too much about our security, but it's an issue.
So when I see people showing up and protesting in people's homes, I'm like, no.
There was an incident that occurred with a good friend of mine and editor-in-chief at TimCast, Cassandra Fairbanks, when people showed up to her home in the middle of the night, banging on the windows, screaming, and launching fireworks.
This was in the DC metro area.
Some far-left lunatics tried denying it happened.
But we've seen the writing on the wall, and we know where this goes.
A man just tried to kill Brett Kavanaugh.
He was stopped by police before making it to his home.
But it's reported he had a gun, a knife, pepper spray, and burglary tools.
He was trying to do it.
When are we going to call this out on the left?
When is the left going to call this out?
When are they going to say, enough?
Beckett Adams tweets, We've spent thousands of hours worrying about right-wing radicalism, violence, etc.
since the SCOTUS leak.
There have been around 12 attacks on crisis pregnancy centers and a supposed assassination attempt on a SCOTUS justice.
Probably time we dedicate equal time to left-wing radicalism.
In Maryland, they went to a pregnancy center, far-left extremists, and attacked it and spray-painted it, damaged it, vandalized it.
You know what these centers do?
If you're a woman, and you're pregnant, and you go there, they'll give you diapers, a playpen, they'll give you formula, because they're just trying to help expectant mothers.
Now, part of it is they don't want women to get abortions.
I don't care if that's the reason or not.
They're helping mothers.
Now, to many of these people, the idea is if a woman is stressed and unable to provide for a child, she may get an abortion.
How do we prevent that?
Make sure she has everything she needs to start with raising this child.
It is expensive and difficult to raise kids.
That's true.
Newborn babies are expensive, man.
And so these centers are just trying to help.
They're not doing anything else but providing resources to typically impoverished mothers.
And we saw just recently, just the other night, another pregnancy center was firebombed.
I believe it was the second or third.
Around 12 attacks, Beckett Adams says.
He says, right-wing extremism is definitely real, but they definitely don't have a corner on the market.
If we worry only about one and all but ignore the other, we are saying something about ourselves.
He says, In fact, if I recall correctly, when a group of left-wing lunatics laid siege to a federal courthouse, we didn't hear much about the growing threat of left-wing radicalism.
Instead, the rioters were given a soft-glow fashion spread in the Washington Post.
Look at this.
They celebrated what they were doing.
These people were throwing bricks and firebombs at a federal building.
It's got to stop.
This is why I say Civil War.
And a lot of people don't want to hear it.
I don't want to hear it.
You know what I'd love?
I'd love to make videos about how movies are dumb.
You know?
Several years ago, I was like, did you guys see the latest movie?
Oh, the movie we did a review on, Sonic the Hedgehog!
We loved that one, by the way.
That was good.
And Sonic 2 was also very good.
Jim Carrey did an amazing job.
I don't like his personal politics, but man, he was excellent as a robot.
If you haven't seen the second Sonic the Hedgehog movie, Jim Carrey nails it.
You see, that's what I want to talk about.
I don't want to talk about some dude just tried to kill a justice.
I suppose, man.
Good times make weak men.
Weak men make hard times.
And we got a whole lot of weak men.
That's basically it.
You know, we're talking with Seamus on Tim Castellarone, he mentions that women are adopting masculine roles because men have adopted a child's role.
Men are not behaving strong.
Men are not being leaders.
Too many millennial men are children.
I'm not going to sit here and pretend like I'm better than any of them.
You know, but too many men just aren't being good leaders.
They are not being strong.
And so we are getting weak.
We are getting weak men.
We have weak men.
And this is making hard times.
That's how the saying goes.
We've got to stand up against this.
And I think we're starting to see this.
I mentioned this in the previous segment I did, but 11 were indicted by a grand jury on violent- 11 Antifa have been indicted.
Times of San Diego.
Prosecutors say 29 felony counts have been filed against the defendants, including conspiracy to commit a riot, use of tear gas, and assault with a deadly weapon, stemming from the January 9th, 2021 clash at Patriot March.
I can't believe it's been a year and a half to get this done.
10 of the 11 defendants pleaded not guilty, while another defendant is set to be arraigned later this month.
unidentified
I don't think they're gonna get in trouble.
tim pool
I mean, they're in trouble.
I don't think there's gonna be justice.
I think they're gonna be let go.
Granted, San Diego is more conservative in many ways, so we'll see.
It's about time everybody came out and condemned any media organization propping this up.
Remember the punch a Nazi thing?
Where everyone cheered when Richard Spencer got punched?
Well, they said he has bad politics, so he's deserving of it.
Those that were smart, those of us said, we do not tolerate political violence, no matter who it comes from.
Because we know what this will lead to.
Do you think that declaring you're going to be violent against a group of people, regardless of their ideology, you think that results in peace?
Or do you think they'll then say, okay, you've declared war?
And the last thing we want is anyone of any ideology, good, bad, or otherwise, to be getting armed and doing things like this.
The goal here is to terrify Brett Kavanaugh, to make him feel unsafe.
That's why they went to his house.
That's why this man did what he did.
They want him to rule to uphold Roe v. Wade and Casey.
Well, there's something else you can do.
You can tell them no, Supreme Court Justices.
You can say, you know what?
Constitutional Caring Nationwide.
You want to show up to my house?
Going to their homes is wrong.
Intimidating is wrong.
I'll just say this.
I hope the Supreme Court justices actually just make the appropriate legal decisions.
Whatever they may be.
I don't agree with them, obviously, but I'm not a lawyer.
I'm not a justice.
And we have to respect the system, although we don't have to respect everything about it.
We have to respect that we are agreeing to play by a certain set of rules.
We want to change those rules, then you can change the rules.
But you better do it through due process.
I don't want the Supreme Court justices to just rule in favor.
Let me be completely clear and honest.
I don't want the Supreme Court justices to rule I don't want them to rule for me.
I want them to rule for what's right.
I want them to look in their hearts and say, this is what we need to do.
And then so be it.
And sometimes those rulings will change, and interpretations and opinions will change, and it just means that we have to strive to make the system better.
That's what I love about America.
You can.
You know, as much as people are really disheartened, look at the Mises Caucus taking over the Libertarian Party.
Not saying the Libertarians Party is going to win anything, but changes can happen.
Boy, were they upset about that.
Look at the Republican Party.
The populist, America-first, nationalist types growing and taking more control.
It is possible.
You just have to believe.
You need to inspire young people.
You need to rally.
And you need to encourage them to join you to make these changes, and it is possible.
This ain't it.
I'll say one thing.
This is one of the worst things possible for the left, and that's what they deserve.
If you are encouraging this, and people go out and do it, then you deserve to be smeared and besmirched for what you have promoted.
For what you have encouraged.
I'm glad to hear everybody's okay.
I'm glad the police did their job, and that's what the police are for, right?
I'm glad to see several Antifa are getting indicted.
Let's make sure we hold all of these people promoting violence, regardless of their political affiliation, to account.
And you know what?
The left is doing it in spades.
So let's tell them, enough!
You reap what you sow.
I hope the American people can see this for what it is.
I'll leave it there.
Next segment's coming up at 4 p.m.
over at youtube.com slash timcast.
Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
San Francisco's progressive district attorney has been recalled by voters in a major rebuke of far-left policies.
I believe this country is waking up.
They're saying no more, this policy makes no sense, and we need sound policy and planning.
You probably heard about what's going on in San Francisco and why people are so angry.
Well, there have been smash-and-grab attacks all over the Bay Area.
There's videos of people storming into Walgreens, storming into Nordstrom, and just stealing everything.
And they can do nothing about it.
Well, when the DA won't prosecute people, and they're getting away with crimes, everything starts breaking down.
And perhaps that was the point, I suppose.
Or maybe the reality is, too many people in this country don't pay attention, and don't care, and vote based on lies and emotional BS.
So here's what I think happens.
I think you have bad faith actors in politics like the San Francisco DA, like the Democrats, for the most part.
Of course, the Republicans have their problems, but they mostly do nothing.
The Democrats lie and say, we're going to do all of these good things.
Look how wonderful things will be.
They say whatever the progressives want to hear.
We're going to end racism by not prosecuting crime.
Things like that.
And then people go, that's a good thing.
Yeah, racism is bad.
And then what do they do?
They don't prosecute crime.
And then all of a sudden your Walgreens store gets shut down.
Your economy's in the gutter.
There's poop all over the streets.
That's San Francisco for you.
The funny thing is they were called the DA, but they're not recalling Nancy Pelosi.
Well, you get what you deserve.
You vote for it.
You live in it.
Congratulations.
I can give him credit for this.
You know, look.
Gas is, what, like $6.50 a gallon in California.
It's like $6.37 on average.
In Mendocino, it's near $10 at one gas station, and it's very, very high in Northern California, like $8.
And you voted for it!
Congratulations to every single person in California who keeps voting for it.
Now, some may say, I didn't vote for this, I know.
But most of the people who didn't vote for it have left a long time ago.
Yeah, I gotta say, if you're still willing to live in San Francisco when it is the poop capital of America, There's poop everywhere?
They actually launched a poop department.
I would cuss, but we'll try to keep it family-friendly.
No joke.
You know, your local town may have, like, a fire department, may have, like, a police department, maybe it's got, you know, a city-funded emergency medical services.
San Francisco has a city poop department, where they get phone calls, and they're like, I'd like to report poop on Market Street, and then the poop department's like, we gotta roll, guys, and they jump in the van, and they put the siren on.
I'm kidding, it's not like that intense.
They just get calls and they drive out and hose down the street because there's so much human waste everywhere.
Well, at least they're doing something.
But you know what?
I think San Francisco is a lost cause.
But again, let me just say, let me calm down.

Bravo for voting this Chesa Bowden out.
Here's the story from Fox News.
Voters in San Francisco have chosen to recall embattled District Attorney Chesa Bowden
following a recall effort centered on his handling of rising crime across the city. San Francisco voted to recall
Bowden with a 61% compared to 39% who wanted him to stay. Are
you kidding me? Take a look at this.
In this city of, well, I don't know the full population of San Francisco
The Bay Area is probably several million.
74,335 voted to recall.
49,591 voted to keep him in office.
I'm sorry.
Y'all deserve it.
Okay?
You do.
I can say to the people who voted to get rid of him, congratulations, but you are living next to these people.
Okay?
40% of people are like, I think everything's fine.
Who in their right mind would think that this guy was doing a good job?
Remarkable.
Bowdoin was elected in 2019 with 50.8% of the vote and was sworn in as San Francisco's
29th district attorney on January 8th, 2020.
He faced an onslaught of criticism over his progressive criminal justice policies
as those supporting his recall pointed to an increased murder rate,
violent crime, shoplifting, burglaries, and an open air drug trade
as the reasons to vote for his removal from office.
Amazing.
Voting supporters praised him for keeping his promises of eliminating cash bail, not prosecuting quality-of-life crimes, and putting fewer people behind bars.
Alright, look.
Here's what I'll say to this.
I think cash bail is a problem.
I genuinely do.
I don't know if there is a good answer to how you deal with it.
Not prosecuting quality-of-life crimes and putting fewer people behind bars.
Well, victimless crimes.
Yeah, I don't think we should be locking people up for that.
I don't know what they mean by quality of life crimes.
But I think if someone's caught with, like, you know, drugs or something, what you do there is you take the drugs, depending on what they are, and they get ordered.
They don't go to jail.
You just say, you are being ordered to, you know, Some kind of a, you know, rehab or treatment program.
And it's gotta be, it's gotta be light.
It's gotta be lax.
In my opinion, it's gotta be like, you show up, you sit down, you talk about it, we provide you.
If it's like opiates or something, we'll get you something to help get you off of it.
I don't think we should put those people behind bars.
So I can respect that.
Now here's the issue I have with cash bail.
You have people who are accused of crimes, sometimes wrongly.
They lose their jobs as they sit in jail because they can't get out.
If you are innocent until proven guilty, I don't think we can lock you up for certain non-violent offenses.
If somebody commits a violent crime, then they probably shouldn't be let out.
Or I should say, if someone is accused of a violent crime, then they have a right to a speedy trial, and I don't think we should be giving them easy bail.
If it's non-violent, you know, if it's going to be possession of certain substances, maybe with the intent to deal, or it's like shoplifting, then we can have, you know, no cash bail or something like that.
But, there's gotta be like, if you are charged with a crime, and you were caught, or accused, or arrested, then you don't get bail.
So I think more people should be remanded, and more people should be released on their own... What's the word?
I can't remember the word.
But released to their own devices, we'll put it that way.
They say he is the first SF District Attorney to be recalled and only the second to face the recall election.
After news of his loss, Bowdoin said at an election night watch party that his push for progressive policies in criminal justice and prison reform was not over.
This is a movement, not a moment in... movement.
You're done.
You're nuts.
Let me show you what people are saying, all right?
Take a look at this.
So, uh, sorry, wrong.
Here we go.
SF Chronicle.
Jessa Bowdoin blamed the recall on the right wing.
But SF voters who ousted him just want a city that works.
Amazing.
San Francisco voters who ousted Jessup Bowdoin from office on Tuesday share a common trait.
No, they're not all closet conservatives conned by rich people into thwarting national criminal justice reform, despite what Bowdoin's supporters have said ad nauseum.
Like that old Chetty Cathy doll that repeats the same phrase every time you pull her string.
They're simply angry, steamed, pissed off, tired of ideology taking precedent over real nuts and bolts progress.
Fed up that nothing related to city government seems to be working.
Frustrated that the city with so much potential isn't remotely living up to it.
Irate that a city with so much built-in advantages, wealth, beauty, diversity, creativity, smarts, is so much less than the sum of its parts.
These people are dumb as a box of rocks.
I'm sorry if you live in San Francisco.
I have very little respect for the average San Franciscan.
I can respect recalling this guy.
But y'all don't seem to care or pay attention.
I don't know.
You know, I'm torn.
I gotta tell people to stand up for what you believe in, to vote, to recall, to stand up for your city.
But these people overwhelmingly keep voting for it and then are surprised when they get smacked in the face by it.
When you have a dude who says, I'm gonna enact policies that have burned this place to the ground before and continually make things worse, and you're like, I'm gonna vote for that guy.
I'm like, okay dude, when you recall them, there's not much I can say.
There's not much I can say.
The city is in shambles, and it has been facing these problems for a long time.
Let me show you what's going on.
Trio of thieves brazenly raid San Francisco Walgreens in broad daylight, with two women looting behind the counter while another clears the shelves.
Your cops won't do anything about it.
Your DA wouldn't do anything about it.
What do you think recalling is going to do?
This is the crazy thing to me.
Okay, so they recall the guy.
The cops still aren't going to enforce this stuff.
You think all of a sudden cops are going to be like, I'm emboldened now.
No, it's not going to happen.
The police are going to say, I have no duty to deal with this.
We can't deal with this.
The issue isn't even the DA.
The DA pulled the plug or punched a hole in the side of the ship.
Better way to pull it.
And now water's spraying in, and you're like, we should get rid of this DA who put a hole in this ship.
Congratulations, you got rid of him.
The hole is still there.
Not only do you need a better DA to fix the problem, you need to bring someone in to plug the hole.
And you know what that means?
That means more intense policing.
Something the people of SF probably are not going to support.
They're gonna sit back and say, well, I'm not a bigot, so I won't support those policies.
This is California.
You will not get anyone willing to say what needs to be done.
It's not going to happen.
And I'd be surprised if it is.
There's not going to be a Democrat who's going to come out and say, it's time to get tough on crime.
It's time to prosecute, revoke cashless bail, put these people behind bars.
No way!
They'd be like, you're a bigot, a racist, and a Republican.
So they're not going to do it.
Because these people are just too terrified.
I am surprised they got as far as recalling Chesa Bowden.
But they're not going to elect him.
Look at New York City, right?
They get Eric Adams, and they're like, he used to be a cop.
And I hear all of these New York conservatives, which are actually moderate liberals, and they're like, look, this guy was a cop, and he got elected.
And I'm like, yeah, and what's he gonna do?
He's gonna get in office, and he's gonna give you Leftist policies instead of far leftist policies.
Now, I don't think voting Republican is going to solve anything, but you will not get people willing to stand up to the psychotic, woke garbage that is gutting and destroying these cities.
Because if you do, they will just be like, well, I'm not going to vote for him.
He's a bigot.
And that's where we'll end up.
That's what you will get.
Here we go, from the Washington Times.
Democrats feeling the folly of George Soros tied to district attorneys.
Ah, that's right.
This is what you get.
It's no secret billionaire George Soros has been tossing millions of dollars into DA races around the nation, with the intent to slide some of his socialist ideas into local communities.
Specifically, to reform the justice system so that criminals run free and victims, well, victims are then victimized again and again.
All right, well let me pause there.
Let's go back to what I was saying about cash bail and all that stuff.
We have a problem, and that problem is the state cannot just lock people up on accusations.
We have constitutional rights.
But that also means that some people who are criminals are going to get out and be repeat offenders.
Hey, I got an idea!
No cash bail on first offenses.
If you are charged with an offense or convicted of a crime, the next time you are accused, you don't have the benefit of the doubt.
You see how that works?
If someone is accused of theft or shoplifting and they have no record, then we say, okay, well look, you're going to be released on your own recognizance.
That was the word I was thinking of.
And here's your court date, and we're going to have to prove this case against you.
It should also be... So here, let me slow down.
The issue is they can't handle the probable cause hearings.
Here's how it's supposed to work.
You get arrested.
The police go before a judge and say, here's some evidence that gives us reason to remand this person or require cash bail.
But there's too many crimes.
And so the problem now is they don't have time to do it.
So what's happening is they're just banging the gavel, next, next, next.
No.
I don't play that game.
If you do not have time for a legitimate hearing on bail, then you let that person go.
Period.
But then I hear many people say, but Tim, there's a problem in New York.
There was one guy who was like shoplifting over and over again, and one time he was getting arrested, he started laughing and said, I keep getting caught doing it, you keep letting me out!
Actually was laughing about it.
Yeah, that's a guy you just lock up!
Like, it's like the seventh time we've arrested a guy with people accusing him of shoplifting.
Okay, you're being remanded until your court hearing.
We're gonna stop this guy from doing this.
People keep pointing it out.
That's a preponderance of evidence.
That is probable cause.
And then we'll have a trial and this person will be remanded to stop the crimes.
Granted, You know, I'm not sure how we deal with non-violent offenders who keep doing things like this, because I don't want our jails jammed up by this.
But here's my proposal.
No cash bail for first offenses.
You have to have hearings, and if you can't, well, too bad.
And everyone gets to keep and bear arms.
That's it.
I watched a video of three dudes breaking into a house.
And a guy was sleeping, and his girlfriend or whatever, or his wife, heard the noise and ran out with a revolver and fired at the intruders.
Now, one of the intruders had a knife.
But they acquired the knife from the kitchen of this house, which means they had intent to do harm to these people, so it's a good thing she was armed.
Because in close quarters, you're not going to defeat that knife.
She was able to scare them off, they jumped out a window.
I don't care what the crime is.
It is patently obvious that an individual who is seeking to commit even just a property crime, not a violent property crime, will not do it if people are armed.
That's what we need.
In my opinion, an armed society is a polite society.
Now I think in New York, here's my prediction.
I think you probably will get a lot of accidental harm caused by people who have guns.
I think it is incumbent upon the individuals to be trained properly and to know how to use a weapon.
That's just reality.
But people have a right to keep and bear arms.
New York keeps that away from people, and crime runs rampant.
And the criminals have guns, and they still kill people.
There was that young woman who was brutally murdered by that group of teenagers up north, like, in the Upper West Side.
They chased her down, and then just brutally murdered her.
She had a gun!
That wouldn't have happened.
Fact.
If she had a gun, that would not have happened.
And people don't need to be... I'm not saying people can be walking around with, you know, AR-15s with standard capacity magazines.
I'm saying people might walk around with a hip bolster.
Just maybe a Glock 17, or maybe not even that, maybe a .22.
They kind of jam a lot, depending on the round, I guess.
But maybe you've just got a .38 Special, revolver, six rounds, or something like that, and that young woman can be walking around the city strapped, and when they run up to her and try to kill her, they did kill her, she would have had a fighting chance.
Now, the challenge with big cities And I get this.
It's that bullets go places.
And if you miss firing at self-defense, then you've got buildings everywhere in an extreme population density.
That's what people are worried about.
I don't have all the answers.
But at the very least, I would say disarming people doesn't seem to be making things better because people still have guns, they're still running around, and they're still shooting people.
Remember that video out of New York?
Where the guy's walking with his daughter and a car pulls up and they kill him in front of his four-year-old?
The laws they've enacted haven't changed any of this.
Bad guys will get guns no matter what, and all you're doing is saying, no good guys with guns.
I'm not saying good guys with guns can solve every problem.
I'm just saying they're not solving it with what they're doing.
So this is where we are.
But the tides, they are a-changing.
As much as I can complain and say, you know, the people in the cities keep voting for it, here we go.
Times of San Diego, 11 indicted by grand jury on violent Antifa attack charges during PB demonstration.
That is, I think it's not Proud Boys.
I believe it is, like, Pacific Beach or something like that.
It was the Patriot March event.
And, uh, what do they say?
They say Pacific Beach.
That's what it was.
Okay.
The times, they are a-changin'.
People are maybe now waking up to the fact that there are far-left extremists running around.
And you know what I think this is?
I'll put it this way.
In 2018, I said, I didn't see how Republicans could lose because of these cultural issues.
People certainly have to have been fed up by now.
And some people said, Tim, you're wrong.
People don't pay attention.
Turns out, I was wrong, and they were right.
Despite all of the insanity we had seen back in 2018, with the absurdity of the culture war and these weird things that were happening, people just weren't paying attention.
I think probably the only reason we're seeing stuff now is people are fleeing these cities because they're being impacted by crime.
They're still not paying attention.
They still probably don't know why it's happening.
That's the craziest thing.
That you will ask someone in these cities, I guarantee it, you ask... Get a man on the street interview.
Walk around and ask people, why do you think crime is so high?
And you're gonna get a lot of people who are gonna say, no it's not.
That's a right-wing talking point.
They're gonna say garbage like that.
That's just the media.
I have not experienced any crime.
I'll tell you a couple stories.
We know that South Africa has violent crime, right?
I met a guy once from South Africa.
I was in Los Angeles.
This was in West Hollywood.
I was doing fundraising, and I met this dude, and he told me he was from South Africa, and I was like, oh wow!
I was like, I'm really interested to hear about that, because I met some people from there in Chicago who told me that it was getting really bad, and I read about how bad it had gotten in crime.
And he goes, nah, it's not that bad.
You know, you keep hearing in the news how bad everything is, but you know, when I lived there, I probably only got mugged maybe like five or six times.
And then I was like, Uh, that's really bad.
I'm from Chicago.
I've been mugged one time.
And the cops stopped it.
Isn't that crazy?
You'd think I'd have been mugged more times.
Many people probably got mugged more than that.
They do these things where they'll walk up to you when you're alone, three guys, and they just frisk you really fast.
They just walk up to you and then pull everything out of your pockets and then push you and then walk away.
They don't walk up to you with guns or knives or anything like that.
They'll just surround you and then quickly take your stuff.
That's not what happened to me, but that happens a lot.
And he was like, you know, five or six times, and I was like, how many times have you been mugged in LA?
And he's like, oh, none.
And I was like, don't you think that maybe that means it's pretty bad there?
But this is the thing.
I grew up in Chicago, as all of you know by now.
And there were a bunch of shootings and stuff.
And I was like, yeah, I don't know, but like most time you're walking around, none of this stuff happens.
But people who live in nice areas are scared of Chicago.
So I met another couple that was from South Africa, and they told me, they're like, it's not as bad as people say, the crime is bad, but they were like, we've been carjacked maybe five times, so it's not that bad.
And I was like, what do you think bad is?
You were carjacked five times?
The people who live in this don't realize they're living in this, they're living in bad stuff.
They don't realize it could be better.
They think, this is just the way it is.
And they don't pay attention.
And then they pay, and then what do they do?
They hear from their friends the news.
It's funny.
It's just, people just make, oh man, you know what the best example, uh, I think gun control is probably the best example, uh, the best red pill.
We had, uh, Ethan Klein was talking about having an AR-15, and you know what he said?
Okay.
He was mimicking using an AR-15, and he went, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
AR-15s are not full-auto weapons, dude.
He didn't know that.
So he was just like, like he thought it was a machine gun.
I'm like, dude, you're talking about like a standard rifle.
This is the funny thing.
People think AR-15s aren't hunting rifles.
Gun control is probably one of the best red pill issues ever.
You know what you do?
Take any of these gun control narratives, and then when you're talking to someone, be like, here, let me show you something real quick.
And then pull up assault rifles being illegal.
I love this.
They say, we need to ban assault weapons.
And I'm like, okay, you know what?
Here, I'll play this game.
Assault weapon means nothing.
But if you want to use that terminology, I can play too.
And then all I do is I pull up assault rifle, and I show people, you know they've been banned since 1986?
And in order to get one for civilian use, it's got to be pre-1986, and it takes you a year to get, and they'll go, really?
I went to the March for Our Lives a couple years ago, and I saw people holding up signs saying, ban assault rifles.
And I said, I wanted to ask you about your sign.
So assault rifles have been banned since 1986 for civilian use.
The ones pre-1986 are grandfathered in, but the only way to get them is through what's called, they're called NFA items, National Firearms Act.
And it takes about a year to get, maybe six months, but some people say up to a year.
You've got to get fingerprinted, you've got to do multiple background checks.
And they go, really?
And I'm like, yes.
So when they say assault weapons, they don't know what they're talking about.
So okay.
When they say an AR-15 is an assault weapon, I'm like, I don't know what that means.
You put a rifle stock on it and all of a sudden it's not an assault weapon?
It's insane.
We use rifle stocks in war.
Or we have.
Granted, now a lot of things have pistol grips, for sure.
But this is a great red pill moment, when people have no idea what they're talking about.
This is the challenge we face.
And this is why Democrats want to get rid of the Electoral College.
Because, unfortunately for us, the majority of the population in urban centers don't know anything about how this stuff works.
So let them tweet, let them continually redpill people, and I think that's why you see censorship.
Because when you go on Twitter, and you see what these progressives have to say, and then you just Google search what they say, and you go, wow, that's not true.
People are starting to get redpilled.
Any sufficiently unmoderated platform will become right-wing.
That's the meme.
And so they have to intervene to stop it from happening, because the internet was waking people up.
It's amazing, isn't it?
Well, look, I know I'm ragging a lot on a city that just got rid of one of the problems.
But I don't think it's going to be enough.
I think they're only reacting to a fire that they're seeing.
And they're going to bring someone else in who's going to be just as bad.
Mark my words, they will put in another progressive DA.
And they'll be like, this will solve the problem!
And I'm like, okay, punching holes in the hull of your ship keeps solving the problem.
They're like, we punched a hole in the hull of the ship.
Didn't seem to work.
Let's plug the hole and then punch another hole in the hull of the ship.
Great.
I'll leave it there.
Next segment's coming up at 1 p.m.
on this channel.
Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
Everybody wants to know exactly what will happen in November, but none of us are psychics.
So it could really go either way, but all of the data suggests that Democrats are going to get obliterated in a red wave.
CNN's data reporter, Enton, said that these were the best GOP numbers in 80 years.
Okay.
Well, don't get your hopes up because, well, to be honest, even if the Republicans win, there's no guarantee they'll actually do anything.
But they might not win.
You see, right now, there is this belief that Democrats aren't really quitting the party.
What they're actually doing is switching over and open primaries to sabotage Donald Trump.
That's right.
I mean, there's no good reason for a newly Republican, a new Republican, former Democrat, to vote in a GOP primary.
It makes sense if they vote in the general.
Why would they vote in the primary?
And it's because of that.
Many people are saying that the numbers we're seeing in early voting that massively favor Republicans are Democrats sabotaging the Republican Party, trying to stop Donald Trump's choices from winning.
My friends, we have more data showing that's not true.
Not only do we have a former Democrat turning Trump Republican, winning a landslide victory, we also have data from the New York Times showing the people who are quitting the Democratic Party and voting Republican are swing voters.
That means people who are likely to be like, I don't know, I could vote Democrat or Republican, who previously voted Democrat, are now saying, I'm gonna vote Republican.
And it stands to reason that yes, the numbers, the belief, is correct.
Democrat voters are jumping ship.
Now why would they vote in a Republican primary?
I think it's a simple, there's a simple answer.
They get a flyer on their door, they see a commercial, they get a sticker, it says, go vote today.
And they say, okay, and they go vote, and they go, I'm voting Republican!
Granted, it's a primary.
And so some of these people are saying, we don't want Trump's people.
Except, across the board, Trump's people are winning.
Notably, Jeff Van Drew of South Jersey.
This guy was a Democrat.
They said, impeach Donald Trump, and he said, you know what?
You've lost the plot.
I am now a Republican.
Donald Trump said, that's exactly what we need, and here we are.
This guy's winning a landslide victory.
You know what else that means?
It means, we are the silent majority.
Maybe not so silent anymore, but actually probably quite silent.
But the idea here is Jeff Vandrieu was a Democrat.
He espoused traditional Democrat values.
Now that he's a Republican, what's changed?
His positions haven't.
So what's happening is that moderate Democrats and Republicans are like, this is exactly what we need.
Someone who stands up against the establishment.
Someone who is fairly moderate and just says, yo, help the workers.
Represent the people who live in your area.
And I think that says a lot.
For many normal people, probable swing voters, they're looking at this as exactly what they want.
Do we want far-left insane policy?
Do we want child drag shows?
I don't want any of that.
It's the economy, stupid.
And if the Democrats are going to scream about January 6th, if they're going to scream about abortion or gun control, they don't got us.
They don't got the disaffected center.
Of course.
What you'll hear on Twitter ad nauseam from these leftists is, you were never really left!
You were never really liberal!
Don't know.
Don't care.
I'm done.
I'm not voting for these Democrats.
I am exactly the kind of person who would vote for someone like Jeff Van Drew.
I don't want some staunch Christian conservative to represent me.
That's not my position.
I have no problem hanging out with Christian conservatives or having conversations.
But, you know, we have disagreements.
I don't want a far-left lunatic.
So you know what ends up happening?
If my choices were between the far-left and a Christian conservative, guess what?
I'm gonna vote for the Christian conservative guy because at least we agree on America.
But now, I have an actual option.
Someone like Jeff Van Drew.
Granted, I don't live in South Jersey.
I wasn't in his district anymore anyway.
But more politicians like this and I say, you know, I think we've got sound compromise between me and many of these staunch conservatives.
We agree on many of these similar issues.
This is fantastic.
We'll have to negotiate and figure out how to move forward on other things like abortion, for instance.
But what the left is proposing?
Not interested.
Their economic policy has failed.
Joe Biden has failed.
And all they do is scream, but he's a centrist!
No, he's not.
Come on.

Let's read this first story from Fox News.
Democrat-turned-Trump Republican wins landslide victory.
People don't want Biden's dysfunctional America.
Jeff Vandrew slammed Biden as the worst president in American history.
I like this guy.
Former Democrat.
Jeff Van Drew fended off several challengers in his New Jersey Republican congressional primary, winning 85% of the vote in a landslide victory.
The Trump-supporting Republican told Fox & Friends First hosts Todd Pirro and Carly Shimkus he credits his success to those around him, including those who espouse his values of freedom, hard work, and making sure everyone obeys the rule of law, among others.
Pretty much everything the Biden administration has done has been so destructive, he said.
Worst president, worst administration in the history of America, in my opinion.
Van Drew also credited former President Donald Trump's endorsement for his win, saying,
He's been with me all along.
He supported me and not only did he endorse me, he's had me at Mar-a-Lago and in New York.
You want to know something funny?
Vox.com wrote that Donald Trump was a moderate.
unidentified
He's a good kid.
tim pool
He is.
Donald Trump is a moderate.
Oh, I can hear the collective recoiling from leftists and establishment liberals, but that's the truth.
Donald Trump was a New York liberal who ran as a Republican.
He supported gay marriage before becoming president.
He banned bump stocks.
This guy's moderate.
Absolutely.
And so for someone like me, I didn't like his attitude.
That's the truth.
I know a lot of people don't want to hear it.
I did not like who he was as a person.
You know, it matters.
It matters to some people.
Now, it's not my first issue.
So when it came to Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, I thought, there's no way Donald Trump's gonna effectively lead.
His temperament was not there.
And Hillary Clinton was a warmongering monster.
So I just sat back and laughed and said, okay, dude, whatever.
And we saw what happened.
The impeachment trials, all the nonsense, all the garbage.
But we also saw what Trump did.
The best numbers of our lives.
The 2019 economy, that was the best numbers in several generations, in 60 years.
It's actually quite incredible.
No new wars.
Pulling our troops out of the Middle East.
The Abraham Accords.
School choice.
And for that I was just like, okay, alright, alright.
Trump is the right choice.
Especially compared to Biden.
Now, we've got Ron DeSantis, and I really do prefer Ron DeSantis.
Because as much as people on the right might not care all that much, or they actually might enjoy Trump's behavior and his character and his attitude, That's not for me.
I'm not the kind of person who likes the stick-the-middle-finger-in-the-face kind of behavior.
I know the establishment has dragged the regular working people through the coals, and a lot of people want that tough guy Trump to just say, screw you.
No, that's not for me.
That's not for me.
I'm not saying that's exactly why people like it, but for me, that's how I see a lot of it.
I think Ron DeSantis is the professional, military man.
He's doing right by his constituents.
He knows what needs to be done to protect this country.
Tremendous respect.
Here's what I think, though.
You know, I was saying a month or so ago, I'd probably—I'd prefer DeSantis over Trump.
But now I'm worried that... I'm thinking about it.
You know, we talked about it quite a bit on TimCast IRL.
I don't know if DeSantis would clean house of the administrative state.
I think Donald Trump needs that one more term.
He needs to go in and say, you're fired, you're fired, you're fired, and just fire them all.
Clean up the swamp.
That's what he was supposed to do.
He didn't.
Trump invited many swamp monsters in alongside him, and I think it's because he didn't realize how entrenched the swamp was.
But, we'll see.
We'll see who runs.
And, you know, if it's between Trump or DeSantis, they've got my vote, for the most part.
I mean, look, if they come out with some ridiculous policies, I'm gonna oppose it.
But for the most part.
Check this out.
Jeff Van Drew was told by Nancy Pelosi, you have to impeach Trump, and he said no.
And so he said, okay, fine.
I quit.
Apparently they threatened him.
They were like, you better do this or else.
And he's like, okay, fine, Trump.
Well, you got my back.
And Trump's like, I got your back.
And he's like, all right, I'm out.
There you go.
Quote, I believe in what he did, that he actually broke up the swamp.
He told the truth about what's really going on.
People want the truth.
They want change.
They don't want this dysfunctional America that this administration is creating.
I think Trump tried in many ways to drain the swamp.
I don't think he knew what he was doing.
And I think that's a fair point.
He's a businessman.
He was not a politician.
So he came in thinking, I can do A, B, and C, 1, 2, and 3, and get it done, and then he got jammed up.
He made some mistakes.
Check this out from May 4th.
Trump touts that all candidates he endorsed won Ohio, Indiana.
Predicts tremendous season for GOP.
Well, not in Georgia, my friend.
Not in Georgia.
But it is true.
The people that Trump has shouted out have won overwhelmingly.
Let's take a look at this.
Here was the narrative.
A Georgia mystery!
How many Democrats voted in the GOP primary?
Donald Trump has pointed to so-called crossover voters as a significant factor in his chosen candidates' heavy losses.
Some Democrats, too, embrace the theory.
But the reality seems more complicated.
Oh, New York Times!
Why don't you just tell us the actual story instead of burying the lead?
Here was the story.
That Democrats voted in the Republican primary because they're open primaries and they can to sabotage Trump.
Even Trump seems to think so.
That's not true.
That does not seem to be the case.
The New York Times buried the lead.
Let me read for you.
They say.
One look at the results of Georgia's primary election last week led many Republicans to believe it was the product of Democratic meddling.
Former President Donald J. Trump's recruited challengers lost in grand fashion in its most sought-after races.
David Perdue was routed by Brian Kemp by more than 50 points, while Rep.
Jody Heiss fell to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger by nearly 20.
Mr. Trump and his allies pointed to so-called Democratic crossover voters as the cause of their shellackings.
In Georgia's open primary system, Democrats and Republicans can vote in the other party's primary if they wish.
And more than 37,000 people cast early ballots in this year's Republican primary election after voting in the Democratic primary in 2020.
37,000 people is not 50% of the vote.
That's not reality.
So here's what's happening.
This narrative is very important for Democrats.
Because what they're saying is, we're not losing voters.
We're just being strategic.
No, you're losing voters.
The New York Times says so.
Check this out.
Some Democrats, for their part, staked a claim to these voters, arguing that they had crossed over to strategically support candidates who reject Trump's falsehoods about the 2020 election.
Most of the crossover voters, the Democrats said, would return to the party in November, I call shenanigans.
But a closer look at these voters paints a more complicated picture.
Just 7% of those who voted early during last month's Republican primary cast ballots for Democrats in that party's 2020 election, according to the data firm L2.
And 70% of this year's crossover voters who cast early ballots had participated in both Democratic and Republican primaries over the last decade.
These voters, data suggests, are less Republican traitors or stalwart Democrats aiming to stop Trump's loyalists than they are the highly sought-after and unpredictable swing voters.
There it is.
Thank you, New York Times.
Well, believe him if you want.
I'm sure many liberals are going to be like, no, the New York Times is biased.
They're corporatists.
What they're saying is the people who are voting in these primaries are swing voters.
These are people who are like, who should I vote for?
Now, what's that?
Many of the staunch Trump supporters say there's no way that these people beat Trump's picks.
I mean, look, I've shown you the people endorsed by Trump win overwhelmingly.
Well, I think Georgia was something interesting, and I can't tell you exactly why.
Jeff Van Drew was a moderate.
He won 85%.
These individuals, they reject Donald Trump's beliefs about the election, and I think regular people prefer that.
I really do.
I get a lot of people who tell me that, they say, Tim is gaslighting on voter fraud and all this stuff.
They say, Tim really believes... No, no, no, no, no.
I believe the votes for Joe Biden in 2020, overwhelmingly, the overwhelming majority, 99.9%, were legitimate people who voted.
I know a lot of people don't want to hear it.
I just think the rules were changed, universal mail-in voting, several states that allowed ballot harvesting, and rule changes that were later deemed unconstitutional are what did it in 2020.
The problem is, people were screaming fraud and all this other stuff, and it's like, dude, a year before, in Pennsylvania, They changed voting rules.
After the election, these changes were ruled unconstitutional.
Okay, but those were actual votes from actual people.
That's the problem.
And then they say, how come the rejected ballots were low?
Exactly!
You know, people are screaming widespread fraud, and I'm like, dude, it was process.
Democrats knew the process, they played the game, and they played it right in a lot of ways, and Republicans did not.
I think regular people hear these crazy stories about Dominion and Germany and all this other stuff, and that really taints the narrative.
But Time Magazine published a story about the Shadow Campaign.
To save the election.
That's what you need to read about.
There are claims made in the documentary 2000 Mules, which I think need to be investigated.
There was recently in Pennsylvania a man pleaded guilty to stuffing ballots for Democrats in the 2014 and 18 cycles.
Pay attention to the stuff.
Those things happen.
But stuffing?
Those are real ballots!
Okay, not in that instance.
I think that guy was actually forging them.
But the question is, is it enough to swing an entire election?
I think you need to pay attention to how they change process.
Republicans, you've got to play the game.
You've got to watch what the rules are.
You've got to see where the votes come from.
And I think, you know, the people, it's crazy to me.
I don't want to get too much into that, but here's my point.
That feeling that I have when I see this, I think people in Georgia feel the same way.
They believe the Republicans should win.
They believe Democrats have burned everything to the ground, but they don't care for these narratives.
And that's why someone like this wins.
Jeff Van Drew is a moderate.
He was a Democrat.
And he doesn't like Joe Biden.
85%.
I don't think Trump's endorsement was exactly it.
I think it helped a lot.
I think regular people, middle-of-the-road people, people like me, and most of you probably, were just like, dude, it's the economy, stupid.
These culture issues are insane.
My gas prices are too high.
I don't care about Trump's claims.
I don't care about these weird leftist issues.
I just want something different.
And that's what they're voting for.
Now some people.
A self-described moderate.
Ms.
Cooper said she had voted in both Democratic and Republican primaries.
This time, she said, Mr. Kemp had been pretty good, and was the best of our options.
She was undecided about the November general election for governor, but if anything, was leaning toward Kemp.
Voters like Ms.
Cooper base their choices in every election on multiple variables.
Their political leanings, how competitive one party's primary might be over the overall environment, blah blah blah.
Many unknowns still remain, okay yada yada.
The people who are voting.
Now this is important.
They're not entirely Democrats quitting the party.
Some are just swing voters.
But this means swing voters are leaning Republican.
Doesn't mean they're going to get them all.
But the narrative about Democratic sabotage?
Take a look at this.
I love this.
This is from The Nevada Independent.
Update.
The trend continued in May of more Dems switching to GOP.
I love this paragraph.
This is from John Ralston, who writes, How many times can I write the same headline and just change the month?
Answer.
Every time I update this blog.
I love it.
Sure.
Dems, they're relatively small numbers, but the trend is inexorable.
If it's a mass switching to muck around in GOP primaries, kudos for your discipline, but I don't think so.
Combine this trend with Republicans doubling the Democrats in voter registration in May, which never happens, and the Dems' statewide lead about to drop below 3%.
This is unprecedented since the Reagan era, and all of the signs are red wavy.
Same as it ever was, the latest.
More Democrats are switching to Republican than vice versa, and Democrats are also switching to nonpartisan.
I love it.
He's finding, John is finding the same thing I'm finding.
If you think it's Democrats trying to just sabotage the Republicans, probably not.
Combine it with the Republican voter registration, yo, it is gonna be lit in November.
And then we can all get disappointed by Republicans doing nothing when they win.
Nah.
I demand, I want to see real action.
Investigations.
Impeachment.
Impeach Joe Biden over Ukraine.
No messing around.
The Las Vegas Sun.
More Democrats in May switch to Republican Party in Nevada.
This one's a straight news piece.
Okay, we get it.
We get it.
Here we go.
CPR News.
Okay, CPR.
Thousands of Democrats are changing their voter registration in Lauren Boebert's district ahead of the primary.
I saw this and I thought, hmm.
What does this mean?
Well, this is another narrative.
They're trying to sabotage Lauren Boebert, but they're not going to be able to.
They're changing their voter registration?
Hold on, what's this all about?
Thousands of voters have recently left the Democratic Party in Western Colorado.
Some as part of a grassroots effort to defeat Republican congressman Lauren Boebert in her upcoming primary election.
Among them is Stephen Hollenborg of Montrose.
Well, I'm a lifelong Democrat and I'm unaffiliated.
He said because he changed affiliation, he can now vote against Boebert in the primary.
The last few years Colorado's open primary system has allowed, we get it, we get it, you can vote whoever.
It was very unfortunate what's going on in the state.
So, I mean, she has to go.
ago. In total, the Democratic Party's voter rolls in the district shrunk by about 3,700
people, or 2.7% from February through May, according to an analysis by CPR News. At the
same time, the district saw unusual growth in its unaffiliated voter population. One
political scientist, Seth Maskett, described the findings as stunning. I love it! They're
trying to claim all of this is people being like, let's sabotage Boebert.
They got one guy.
It's impossible to say how many of those switchers are hoping to influence the Boebert quorum primary.
Some may be displeased with the Democrats or may have simply moved away.
But reporters have heard from numerous liberal and unaffiliated voters in the district who want to dump Boebert.
unidentified
Alright.
tim pool
Okay.
Go for it.
Democrats are dropping.
Republicans are growing.
But take a look at this.
In all of these districts, Republicans are growing.
Democrats are not!
This is the hilarious thing about it.
In CD3, Congressional District 3, Lauren Boebert, we can see a major drop-off of Democrats.
Okay.
It is the biggest growth of Republicans.
And maybe they are trying to unseat Boebert.
But look at all these other congressional districts where unaffiliated is skyrocketing.
Republicans are down a bit, quite a bit.
I'm sorry, I got it backwards.
Unaffiliated is skyrocketing.
Purple was unaffiliated.
I did not mean to say Republicans.
In the charts, we're seeing unaffiliated is skyrocketing.
Democrats are going down, but it's hard to know for sure.
Republican is up in CD3.
In CD6, it's down way more.
In CD1, it's down.
So we will see.
This could mean Republicans are dropping out of the party and then voting for Democrats to try and sabotage them.
Or it could mean that people are just generally, well, unsatisfied.
Unaffiliated membership is growing more than anything else.
It looks like Democrats are mostly stagnant.
No real growth and losses.
Republicans seem to be losing quite a bit but gaining a little bit.
It's hard to know exactly how this will play out.
Now this one's a bit different.
I highlight this article because it does seem there is some credence to the idea that Democrats are trying to sabotage Boebert.
That's a fair point.
But when you look at all of the evidence, I'm not convinced.
I'm not convinced at all.
I think people are moderate.
And I think what we'll end up getting from this is they're not going to go and vote Democrat.
If they do unseat Boebert and bring in someone who's more moderate, I think a lot of people are going to vote for the moderate.
You might not like Lauren Boebert, but you certainly don't want to vote Democrat when they are driving a lot of these problems.
So, again, to clarify, because I was reading this wrong.
Unaffiliated is skyrocketing.
Democrats are fairly stagnant with moderate losses.
Republicans seem to be swinging back and forth.
Third Party is actually growing quite a bit.
I get it.
I'm not a big fan of the Republican Party either.
Let's take a look at some other voting blocks.
NPR wrote in July of 2021, Latino voters are leaving the Democratic Party.
That's interesting.
How about this one from March 21st?
More Hispanic Democrats in new poll considering leaving party than Hispanic Republicans.
Let me simplify.
considering leaving party than Hispanic Republicans. Let me simplify. More Democrats want to quit the
debt. More Hispanic Democrats want to quit than Republicans.
Parties which in favor of Republicans.
And then we have this.
The Colorado story is the one where I'm like, maybe they are trying to unseat Boebert.
We'll see.
The Democrats are losing tons of voters.
Here's why.
Republicans have deftly targeted this election-swinging voter demographic with a massive investment
in media and messaging.
The Colorado story is the one where I'm like, maybe they are trying to unseat Boebert.
We'll see.
The Democrats are losing tons of voters.
It's hard to know for sure.
Maybe people just are tired of what's happening.
It's hard for me to believe that the real issue is Democrats trying to sabotage Republicans because the voter data, the polling for Republicans is just so good.
So what are they doing?
Here we go.
The New York Post reports, Ron DeSantis says George Soros-backed Latino media network will disinform.
What's this?
Florida Governor DeSantis is warning Miami residents that Spanish-language radio stations bought by a George Soros-backed group plan to spread disinformation.
All right.
More of the disinformation angle.
I'm not a fan of this people screaming disinformation, all right?
If George Soros is gonna buy radio stations, know about it.
Know about it.
Warn people.
I suppose you can say, You know, keep an eye out, keep your ears open, listen for what they may be saying, because they're likely doing this for political reasons.
Soros-backed fund management, investment, or whatever, they're going to try and sway you on politics.
I think it's important to keep that in mind.
In this story from Fox News, let me tell you what's going on.
Former Democrat Senator says Biden saved the economy and that it's really not doing too bad at all.
All right, they're going to lose.
You know, I hate to say they are going to lose because then something comes in November and they end up winning.
And we'll see.
We'll see, man.
If the polls remain as wrong as they've been over the past several years, Republicans aren't just going to win 40 or 60 seats.
They might win 80 or more.
We saw safe blue districts flip Republican in 2020.
Despite soaring prices, Doug Jones urged Biden to take credit for the good things.
Oh, please listen to this man.
I would love for Joe Biden to come out and be like, I'd like to take credit for the economy and everything you've seen, all of these things.
That's me.
I did it.
People are going to be like, what?
I can't fill up my gas tank, dude.
Okay, that's a little bold, but let's say Joe Biden came out and said, you know, I know inflation's at 40-year highs, I know gas prices has shattered records day after day with nearly five bucks a gallon, but I'm doing great!
I saved- I just want Joe Biden to come out, look the American people dead in the eye, and say, I saved the economy.
And then have them be like, what?
Yeah.
And some people have pointed out, what we're seeing now is the ramifications of 2020.
Last night, we had our good friend Luke Rutkowski on the show at IRL, and he said, this is Trump 2020, and what we're seeing now, it's not even Biden.
Biden's going to happen next year.
Okay.
That's not true.
I get his point.
Donald Trump did say 15 days to slow the spread.
But when it came to all of the lockdowns and all the harsh policies, it was Democrat governors.
And Trump came out several months later and said, we've got to reopen.
But he didn't have the authority to force them to.
The states can do what they want.
Now, we are watching Joe Biden enact policies.
It is going to get worse.
What we are seeing now is the recoil of 2020.
Donald Trump bears some of that responsibility.
But I think the path we're on is only making things worse.
Russia and Ukraine.
How about that?
Joe Biden blames Russia for the oil prices.
Okay.
Well, there was no Russian invasion under Donald Trump.
Yeah, it's bad leadership from Joe Biden.
This is all going to get very interesting.
And the Democrats have one thing to offer us.
Culture war garbage.
The January 6th committee is about to reveal its findings.
The hearings are probably the Democrats' last, best hope of rallying complacent voters.
It's not going to work!
No one cares about this!
100, 200 people rioted.
600 or so people bumbled around the other side of the building and walked in.
And they're getting charged?
Some people are charged with seditious conspiracy.
Bad.
Yeah, let's see how it plays out.
They're innocent until proven guilty.
Let's see what they have to show.
If Democrats think they're going to sway a large enough block of voters on this issue, they're wrong!
And it's just absolutely pathetic.
Let's talk about what Democrats keep saying.
Let's talk about these issues.
Daily Mail.
73% of Trump voters think Democrats are trying to replace white people with immigrants and people of color who share their political views, shock new poll shows.
Okay, well, why do they think that?
In this story from the New York Post, Democrats advocate high immigration to gain political power and smear Republicans when called on it.
That's the reality.
The New York Post, here you go.
The left-wing Center for American Progress issued a report in 2013 titled, Immigration is Changing the Political Landscape in Key States.
It's summarized, quote, supporting real immigration reform that contains a pathway to citizenship
for our nation's 11 million undocumented immigrants is the only way to maintain electoral
strength in the future. And there it is. Now, I don't know if that necessarily means white people.
It means they want to bring in more like-minded people.
But whatever you think, the idea is Democrats want more immigration because it gives them political power.
I mean, not all of them.
I mean, enough of them.
Books were written about it.
The widely cited and over-interpreted 2002 book, The Emerging Democratic Majority.
It called the Democrats the party of transition, as white America is supplanted by multiracial, multiethnic America.
Not me.
I don't care about race.
unidentified
At all.
tim pool
I think racism is bad, and I think the issue is values.
A multicultural democracy?
No.
A constitutional republic?
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
A constitutional republic protects minorities.
It has been what has helped grant more protections to marginalized groups than anything else.
The fact that we have a constitution that says specific things about what can or can't be done by the government and how we are supposed to be operating.
In a multicultural democracy, it's mob rule.
And if the mob is a bunch of racists, then you get racism.
The saying is, a democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding on what's for lunch.
A republic is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
I love that saying, because it's true.
In this country, we said, listen, regardless of what the majority wants, the rule in the Constitution says this.
And people got mad about it.
And that's true of civil rights.
That's true of gay marriage.
Well, it'll be interesting to see where this goes with gender identity.
They want to do the equality act or something.
They want an equality amendment or whatever.
We'll see where that ends up.
Amending the Constitution is going to be very difficult to pull off for anybody.
I don't think they're going to win on those grounds.
But the Constitution It's the rule that we set forth, the supreme law of this land.
They want to supplant that.
That's what I'm worried about.
I don't care about the race of people.
I don't care if they're Mexican, if they're South American, I don't care if they're Nigerian.
In fact, we often see Nigerians are extremely hard-working and prosperous in the United States.
That's what I want to see.
So I don't care about the racism.
I should say this.
I don't like the racism.
But I don't care for the racists and their arguments.
They're nonsense to me.
Here's what I want to see.
I want to see politicians who say, work hard and you can succeed.
I want to see people have the opportunity to work hard and succeed.
I don't want to see equity and equal outcomes.
That's not reality.
I want values of hard work, personal responsibility, and individual liberty to reign in this country.
And that's what I think we can get if we push back against these ridiculous Democrat lunatics.
Unfortunately, the Republicans ain't going to be doing much, so I don't know what the answer is.
Certainly, the Republicans winning is better than the Democrats, and we'll see.
For the time being, maybe there's some hope in the Mises Caucus, because they just took over the Libertarian Party.
We'll see.
I would love to see a Libertarian win.
In Congress, get a handful of them, if we can pull that off.
I'm not sure, though.
I'm not convinced.
I think, ultimately, people are just going to vote Republican because they don't want Democrats to win, and maybe that's the best we can do.
I think Democrats are going to lose.
I could be wrong, and I've been wrong before, so we'll leave it there.
