		You don't want to miss it.
		Now let's get into the news this morning.
		Israel invaded Rafah in southern Gaza in defiance of Joe Biden.
		The Biden administration recently withheld military aid to Israel, saying, do not invade Rafah and a ceasefire is the right way to go.
		But Israel doesn't care what Joe Biden thinks.
		They don't respect him.
		And they're moving in either way.
		It's currently happening right now.
		Now, the question is, why is Joe Biden bending the knee and saying, stop, Israel, stop?
		Is it because Israel is engaged in wrongdoing, perhaps?
		Is it because Joe Biden thinks the war is over?
		I don't know, maybe, but I think it's fairly obvious the driving factor in this is the far-left riots sweeping the country, and Joe Biden is bending the knee to far-left extremism.
		This is what they serve, and they cheer it on.
		When Donald Trump was forced into the emergency bunker during the Summer of Love, the media and the left laughed.
		They called him Bunker Boy.
		And now here we are.
		Anti-Israel protesters vandalize World War I memorial, burn American flag after cops block group from reaching star-studded Met Gala in New York City.
		The anti-Israel campus protests are no longer just campus protests.
		They are nationwide riots.
		And we're seeing more and more videos pop up across the country of riots and violence and clashes with police.
		Joe Biden and the Democrats have made their bed.
		Now, I do want to talk to you about the scope of the war, its expansion, but I think the domestic policy is more important and more pressing as it directly affects us.
		The question, of course, being, how is this going to affect the presidency?
		How will Joe Biden respond?
		And we'll start with what happened last night.
		Now, for those that were watching Tim Kast's IRL, you already know.
		Far-left extremists tore down the barricades in New York and tried to storm their way to the Met Gala.
		For those who are not familiar with the Met Gala, because I'm mostly not either, it's the Super Bowl for women.
		As Libby Emmons tells me last night on the show, no, it's the Super Bowl for fashion.
		And I say, yeah, okay, you know, but like basically women, right?
		Sure.
		Here's the story from the New York Post.
		Anti-Israel protesters vandalized a World War I memorial in Central Park on Monday and burned an American flag after a mob of more than 1,000 marchers was blocked by cops from reaching the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where the star-studded Met Gala was in full swing.
		At least one America-hating vandal torched Old Glory at the site of the 107th Infantry Memorial, the base of which was defaced with graffiti reading Gaza in large black letters.
		Others plastered the statue's bronze soldiers with stickers of the Palestinian flag that read, Stop the Genocide, End the Apartheid, Free Palestine.
		Some of the protesters climbed atop the infantrymen and waved Palestinian flags or draped them over the figures.
		You can see some photos we have, of course, of the violence and extremism.
		As it's expanding.
		They didn't make it to the Met Gala.
		Of course, they were blocked by police.
		They say, the anarchy near the corner of 5th Avenue and East 67th unfolded with no cops
		in sight as a large police presence had mobilized about 15 blocks north at the Met to ensure
		that one of the biggest nights in fashion wasn't crashed by any anti-Israel protesters.
		Another Central Park monument, the Civil War General William Tecumseh Sherman bronze statue
		in Grand Army Plaza, was also vandalized Monday night.
		Now, you know, that's really weird that they would do that.
		Why they would vandalize Sherman?
		Because he was a Union soldier.
		Sure.
		Free Gaza was graffitied in red letters on the base of the memorial, and a Palestinian flag was affixed to its front.
		I'm sure what they'll tell you is that Sherman, you know, he had that march to the sea where he, you know, just destroyed people's homes and livelihoods because we call it scorched earth.
		And what they're going to argue is, during the summer of love, when they're destroying statues, they'll say, oh, but it's because it's slavery.
		They never really explained why they tore down Hans Christian Haig.
		I believe he was Norwegian, I could be wrong.
		Or Danish?
		I don't know.
		He's Scandinavian.
		And he came to this country because he thought slavery was bad and he fought to end it.
		They destroyed his statue.
		And now, Sherman.
		What they'll argue is, well, Sherman was a colonizer.
		That proves it.
		And he was just fighting to support white supremacy.
	You know, even though he fought to end slavery, and he was in many many ways a kind of a bad dude, but you know, it is what it is.
	The reality is, they want to destroy our institutions, they want to tear down our statues, and they want to replace our culture with something else.
	This is not about Palestine.
	They do not care about Palestine.
	I will stress this again.
	They act like they do.
	Many of them do.
	That's fair.
	But most of them have no idea what they are talking about.
	Why?
	It's fire.
	It's chaos.
	These are individuals who are just bored, listless.
	They're listless vessels.
	They have no purpose.
	They have no mission.
	And so this becomes it.
	We end up with videos like this.
	A.G.
	Hamilton on Twitter, Ax says, Insane video from MIT.
	In Arabic they chant, Palestine will be Arab and death to Jews.
	Then in English they chant, we don't want no Zionists here and that there is only one solution, Intifada revolution.
	Don't look away.
	Well, this video, as I described yesterday, is the black and blue or white and gold dress of protests because it is split.
	Some are arguing they weren't saying death to Jews, they were saying death to Zionists.
	Well, in English they say, we don't want no Zionists here.
	But in Arabic they do say, no one's disputing this, some are saying, I speak Arabic and I didn't hear them say death to Jews, and other people are pointing out saying, they're saying death to Zionists, not death to Jews, right?
	I'll tell you this.
	I don't know.
	I don't rightly care.
	In the original tweet, Retsef Levi says, quote, death to Zionists, quote, from the water to the water, Israel will be destroyed.
	We say openly that we don't want any Zionists here or in Israel.
	We will release Palestine with blood.
	Just under the chance at MIT Pro Hamas encampment, the masks are off.
	I don't know why.
	I guess what people are saying is they are hearing It's really hard to hear exactly what they're saying because they're just chanting.
unidentified		chanting. Let's see if we can, if you can, here we go.
unidentified		chanting.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Alright, I'm over it.
		Um...
		Some people are arguing that they're saying Yahudiem or something like that, which means Jewish people.
		I don't know.
		I don't speak Arabic.
		I don't rightly care, because the distinction between — there is certainly a distinction between a Jewish person and a Zionist, but either way, these are people on MIT campus saying people should be murdered.
		That's it.
		Now, let me draw a distinction.
		Some people have said, but Tim, what's the difference?
		People on the other side are saying death to Hamas.
		Yeah, okay, listen.
		A Zionist, in its purest definition, is a person who wants to establish a Jewish state, a state of Israel.
		Hamas is a governmental military faction engaged in military activities.
		The general concept of Zionist is not militaristic.
		They'll call them colonizers, but you could have a person in the United States who is a Zionist who does nothing for Israel and just complains about how he wants a Jewish state, and that's Zionism.
		To claim that a person should be killed for their beliefs is very different from saying that a military foe must be defeated.
		By all means, hate Zionists, criticize them all day.
		I really don't care.
		But there is a difference here.
		Axios breaks it down.
		The Rafah assault threatens to be Israel's breaking point for Democrats.
		Yeah, Joe Biden's shown himself to be impotent.
		He has no influence.
		Israel doesn't care.
		And suspending military aid to Israel's done nothing.
		Now, I wonder if Joe Biden will get impeached over this, but I really don't think so.
		And maybe not so much because they won't do it.
		They don't want to hold Joe Biden accountable, but more so, I don't think Republicans want to give Democrats the opportunity to swap him out.
		You know what I mean?
		Axios reports, Democrats in Congress are furious as Israel moves into the southern Gaza city of Rafah after they and President Biden spent months trying to prevent such an operation.
		Really?
		So, uh, you mean Joe Biden's biggest donors?
		And you know, this was a big story yesterday, but I'll pull it up to make sure that, uh, Hey, it's Kimberly Fletcher here from Moms4America with some very exciting news.

tim pool ▲ ● ▼		See you on the tour!
		Pro-Palestinian protesters are backed by a surprising source.
		Biden's biggest donors.
		Biden's donors are supporting the anti-Israel protests.
		Biden's biggest donors are Democrat donors.
		And now all of a sudden, because I want to make sure this is clear, These people are funding leftist causes and not just Joe Biden.
		All of a sudden now, Joe Biden is on the side of Gaza and anti-Israel.
		Democrats in Congress are furious they and President Biden spent months trying to prevent such an operation.
		A full-scale invasion could be a sea-change moment for Democrats on Israel and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, with whom relations have become increasingly strained.
		I think it's going to further erode Democrats' support, one House Democrat engaged on the issue told Axios.
		Another expressed profound disappointment that Netanyahu apparently would rather prolong this war and has forsaken the hostages.
		Well, I have an honest question.
		Considering the defiance that Israel is throwing in the face of the U.S., considering Biden and Democrats defying Israel's aims, I wonder if the Groyper and white identitarian factions will swing full Democrat and support Joe Biden in this election.
		Because, you know, we got a super chat last week.
		Someone chatted that they would vote for Joe Biden if he came out against Israel.
		I would simply describe that as Israel Derangement Syndrome.
		Much like people are saying you can't vote for Trump, he's evil, people are willing, and they'd be willing to vote for Joe Biden because of it.
		You have people who are saying they hate Israel and Israel is evil and they would vote for Joe Biden because of Israel.
		And that's just Derangement Syndrome in every, in a much, in the equal way we describe it.
		Joe Biden, one of the most crooked presidents we've ever seen, a man that many conservatives have claimed didn't actually even win the election.
		And now, and I'm not saying everybody, I'm saying there was a guy who said, I'd vote for Joe Biden if he came out against Israel.
		Well, he did.
		Biden repeatedly is coming out against Israel.
		Biden barred a military aid shipment to Israel.
		So, are these people who hate Israel and the anti-Semites, not saying the same group, but many, big overlap, they gonna vote for Joe Biden now?
		I wouldn't be surprised.
		Israeli forces moved into the city on Monday on a limited operation aimed at seizing control of the Rafah crossing between Egypt and Gaza, Axios Barak Ravid reported.
		At the same time, the Israeli defense forces have been conducting airstrikes on Hamas targets in the eastern neighborhoods of Rafah.
		The invasion comes as Israel says it remains far apart from Hamas on a deal to release Israeli hostages in Gaza and institute a ceasefire.
		Biden and Democrats have long feared that an invasion of the city, in which over a million Palestinian refugees are sheltering, would be a humanitarian catastrophe.
		Groups of Democratic lawmakers have repeatedly called for the Biden admin to consider restricting weapon transfers to Gaza to either head off or punish the Rafah invasion.
		The Biden admin put a hold on a shipment of U.S.-made ammo to Israel last week, the first such halt since October 7th.
		what they're saying. The Israelis should, over time, root out the people who perpetrated October 7th,
		but collectively we have a huge issue with the humanitarian situation, House Intelligence
		Committee ranking member Jim Himes told Axios. Himes warned that an invasion of Rafa would move
		hostage and ceasefire talks in the wrong direction. Rep Haley Stevens, a Democrat, a staunch Israel
		supporter, told Axios, we are obviously very concerned about the continuation of this war
		when we feel so close to reaching a ceasefire and seeing hostages returned.
		One House Democrat who has pushed for Biden to condition military aid to Israel said the
		Rafa assault has the potential of making our case for us.
		Another House Democrat said the Biden administration has intimated that they're going to publicly criticize Netanyahu over a Rafa invasion, and at that point, they probably will start conditioning or curtailing arms.
		Rep Bowman?
		A vocal critic of Israel told Axios that all of this makes things worse for Israel in the long run, in terms of how people perceive Israel on the global stage.
		The other side, Rep.
		Brad Schneider, a Democrat, told Axios he has grave concerns about Israel's security.
		Hamas has said they will attack time and time again.
		Schneider said Israel has to do everything it can do to minimize civilian casualties, but the cards are in Hamas's hands.
		They have to make the right choice for their people.
		Well, let's break it down, my friends.
		As you know, and I've just pointed out now for the third time, The biggest supporters, the donors backing these groups, are Biden's donors.
		Biden, of course, is now bending the knee.
		Biden said to tell Netanyahu ceasefire is best way to protect hostages.
		This from yesterday at 6.42 p.m.
		A U.S.
		National Security Council spokesperson, speaking on condition of anonymity, says that in his call with Netanyahu, Biden reiterated concerns about an invasion of Rafah and said he believes reaching a ceasefire with Hamas is the best way.
		Now, don't get me wrong.
		Biden, it may be fine to say he wants an end to hostilities, a cessation of conflict.
		The problem, as I see it, is you've got a war without end.
		Yahoo says Joe Biden.
		Alongside Hamas.
		Now, don't get me wrong, Biden.
		It may be fine to say he wants an end to hostilities, a cessation of conflict.
		The problem, as I see it, is you've got a war without end.
		You've got a war with no end in sight.
	Too many times.
	And this is Hamas's own fault.
	They've said, OK, ceasefire.
	And then they've broken the ceasefire and began firing on Israel.
	So why would anyone believe they legitimately want to ceasefire?
	It's been described in many ways as Hamas attacks Israel.
	Look, it's been it's been a war for 100 years, OK?
	Hamas attacks Israel for a variety of reasons.
	There's terror attacks, there's intifada, etc.
	And then Israel retaliates with crushing force, being the victor in the war back in, I think it was, what?
	Was it 47?
	Or was it?
	I think it was 47.
	And then what happens?
	After the beatdown is so brutal, Hamas goes, Cease fire!
	Cease fire!
	Israel says, OK, cease fire.
	And then Hamas immediately launches rockets again.
	What do you do?
	I'm not here to tell you what Israel or Gaza or Hamas or anybody should be doing.
	I have no idea.
	I'm just telling you that happened.
	And now what's going to happen is Israel is going to say, no more ceasefire.
	The boot comes down.
	And of course civilians will get caught up in this.
	Coleman Hughes on Joe Rogan made a very apt point.
	He said the issue with civilian casualty is that in Gaza they've done something that is rare in conflict and that's they've mixed civilian with military population.
	I mean, naturally, that's the only way I'd imagine it would function.
	If Hamas built a military base, Israel would probably just blow it up.
	So this means that Hamas, as a military faction in the al-Qassam Brigades, are intermingled with civilian population.
	In apartments, in hotels, I'm sorry, in schools and hospitals.
	Probably hotels too.
	And that means Israel's going to blow them up.
	That's it.
	Now what I find truly fascinating is Biden's Refusal to side with Israel on this one.
	That's strange, because I am reliably told by so many obsessed people on the internet that Israel actually controls the United States.
	I suppose they'd make the argument, this proves it!
	Because now, you know, even when the U.S.
	says no, Israel does it anyway.
	Well, that's Israel controlling Israel.
	In fact, I'd argue Joe Biden desperately trying to stop Israel shows he's defying Israeli interests.
	But there are some people who just live in that world.
	Absolutely obsessed.
	And that's many of these protesters that are on the ground vandalizing property and destroying things.
	NYPD arrests Gaza war protesters rallying near the Met Gala.
	Many of these people don't know what they're protesting.
	Some do.
	Many of them do.
	I'm assuming the Arabic-speaking Muslim protesters know exactly what they're protesting, and this is what they care about.
	But I can tell you that these college-age liberals have no idea what they're protesting.
	The funny thing is, One of my favorite stories from Occupy Wall Street is when they would chant Antica Pizzalista, anti-capitalist in Spanish, and most of the people had no idea what they were chanting.
	My favorite story from this is the guy who was like, Yeah, gibberish.
	Because he did not know what they were saying, because they would go, ah, auntie, auntie capitalist, that's what they would chant, right?
	And so this guy is chanting gibberish, and I'm streaming, and I was like, what are you chanting?
	And he was like, oh, I just, you know, I just, I don't know.
	And I was like, what are you saying?
	Like, what's the chant?
	He's like, I don't know, I don't know.
	They're just there.
	Mindless, listless vessels, having no idea what they're mad about, but trying to fit in.
	Idle hands, devil's playground, as it were.
	But you take a look at what's going on now with Joe Biden and the Democrats.
	I'm sorry, I just got to lay this one out once again for the people who think that Jews in Israel control everything.
	Pritzker, Rockefeller, Soros are funding anti-Israel protests.
	Tell me again this world you live in where Israel controls everything, or you think it's Jews who control everything?
	But I thought Soros, many people said he was Jewish.
	Oh, they also say he was a Nazi.
	Okay, well, look, I don't know, I don't know.
	What I can tell you is these people are funding the far-left protests that hate white people, that also hate Jews and hate Israel, because what they're really interested in is destabilizing and destroying this country.
	That's it.
	It's not for Israel.
	It's barely against Israel, but it's seemingly against Israel.
	They just want to destroy U.S.
	foreign policy.
	And Joe Biden's in on it.
	These are his donors.
	I wonder what this will mean for Donald Trump, because I don't know.
	But Trump says he's the most pro-Israel president there's ever been.
	Now we see him hanging out with Mike Johnson.
	Mike Johnson, of course, supporting funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
	The rumor is Donald Trump has already chosen Marco Rubio as his VP.
	I don't know that that's true.
	That's what people are muttering behind the scenes.
	And now, above the scenes, as it were, because I'm saying it on this show.
	If Donald Trump announces, based on this rumor, and the things that are being said about it, if Trump announces Rubio as his VP, Trump will win.
	Not because Rubio is a good choice.
	Not because Rubio is, you know, going to provide a demographic that Trump can't reach none of that.
	But because of the deals being worked behind the scenes as it pertains to the US and foreign policy.
	And what that really does mean is that There will be limited resistance from the deep state if Rubio is the VP.
josh hammer ▲ ● ▼		Hey, guys, Josh Hammer here, the host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer, a podcast for the First Podcast Network.

		We do all of that every single day right here on America on Trial with Josh Hammer.

		It's America on Trial with Josh Hammer.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		At least that's what I think.
		But for all we know, Trump says no, and it turns out it's J.D.
		Vance or who knows what.
		But a lot of top men, as it were, have been saying it's going to be Rubio.
		We'll see.
		I don't know if I'm not supposed to say that or whatever.
		It's not like I've talked to anyone in his campaign, or I want to stress this.
		I've not talked to Trump about it, or I only met him briefly for 30 seconds, and we talked about, you know, he just said I had a good face.
		But I just mean, like, people who are in politics have been saying the rumors they're hearing are that Trump has already picked Rubio.
		Again, this is not coming from an official campaign source or anything like that.
		That's why I'm like, I don't know that I believe it.
		It's just mutterings.
		But based on the rumors, if Trump does come out and say he picked Rubio, I think this backs up the other elements of the rumors, which suggest Trump wins November.
		We'll see.
		Next segment's coming up at 1pm on this channel.
		Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
		There's an old saying on the internet.
		However much you hate journalists, it's not enough.
		Okay, I think it's a little silly.
		I mean, we can criticize the corporate press, but there are a lot of great journalists who do great work.
		Notably, James O'Keefe.
		So when people are saying they don't like journalists, what they're really saying is the corporate press.
		Which brings me to this story from the Daily Mail.
		Actually, they wrote the story twice, because it's so good and so nice, it needed to be read twice.
		Ex-CNN reporter says she is haunted after having dinner with closeted Trump supporters who seemed normal.
		And then we have the follow-up.
		Trump fans normal?
		Imagine.
		Ex-CNN reporter is eviscerated for revealing she was haunted by dinner with closet MAGA fans who seemed ordinary.
		Well, my friends, she didn't just say that they were MAGA fans.
		She called them maggots.
		Maggot.
		That's it.
		Maggots.
		That's what she called them.
		This is a lady who had previously been called out live on television for essentially fabricating a weather disaster.
		She's rowing in a boat in a flood when the water was probably four inches to six inches high.
		And then she actually got made fun of by the host on the Today Show for doing it.
		See, what happened was, a couple of men walked past her while she was on the boat.
		Had they not, you'd have thought the water was deep.
		But she got caught.
		She's fake news.
		Michelle Kozinski, 50, took to social media on Sunday to describe her recent dinner.
		The DC-based journalist served as CNN's White House correspondent until 2020.
		She also worked at NBC News and has been seen schmoozing with the Obamas.
		And she made this post, and this is wild, where she's like, we didn't realize that our friends supported Donald Trump!
		She called them extremists.
		Lady, more than half the country supports Donald Trump.
		But y'all are gonna love this one.
		I have for you the tweet story and the reactions here, and then we'll talk about the corporate press and why everybody hates them.
		Michelle Kaczynski on Twitter says, A few weeks ago, I had dinner with a few couples, friends of friends, all American.
		All were well-educated and successful in their careers.
		They seemed great on the surface.
		For like an hour, but slowly, over a few drinks, they began to let slip their true MAGA natures.
		It's a cult, ladies and gentlemen.
		It is a cult, please.
		Show this to people.
		I beg of you.
		So they can understand what a cult this is.
		She goes on to say, One of the couples each attended top Ivy League colleges.
		But now that it was university time for their own kids, they were adamantly not letting them apply to any Ivies.
		And were weird about explaining why.
		Though the kids were double legacies.
		Okay, moving on.
	The next crew suddenly busted out with air quotes when mentioning climate change.
	Again, these are otherwise smart people.
	Not scientists, clearly, but educated.
	And the dude took seething umbrage when my friend mentioned the damage Trump had done and vowed to continue to do.
	The others, when they realized that a few in their presence came armed with gasp actual facts, no!
	Quickly changed the subject and nervously said they don't want to talk politics.
	They realized they would be eviscerated on all idiotic points, especially on the economy.
	Actually, I think they were just trying to be polite.
	Excuse me.
	As it went on, my friends and I realized we were surrounded by otherwise carefully closeted maggots.
	That's right, maggot.
	That's what she's calling them.
	Insects.
	Excuse me.
	It's funny how the extremist or just wrong beliefs can't help but leak out, even when you least expect them.
	And from people you least expect, they are out there.
	This dinner continues to haunt me.
	They all seemed so normal when I asked the couple who were my old friends how they didn't know.
	They said that in their upscale Florida neighborhood, people are extremely careful not to ever broach or debate the subject.
	This is not healthy.
	If people don't ever talk about these things as friends and neighbors, and only live in their own warped information silos, how will they ever learn what is true or false?
	How will the truth ever make them consider alternatives?
	The allure of BS is co-opting decent minds.
	Well, she's right about that.
	And I'll point this out.
	To the Trump supporters having dinner with her, their refusal to engage on this subject leaves her in this bubble world.
	Let's talk about it.
	Let me talk about it, and then we'll show you the reaction we got from people.
	And then we'll call her out for being a fake news reporter.
	Well-educated, she says, but they don't want their kids going to Ivies, even though they were double legacies.
	Why?
	Well, right now, the Ivies are overwhelmingly overrun by pro-Hamas protests, far-left, communist, etc.
	So, of course, they don't want their kids to go there.
	They care about their kids, and they don't like communism.
	Michelle is either a communist or has no idea what's going on at universities and why they're not a good place for your kids.
	But think about this.
	There are wealthy, double-legacy families who know and are pulling their kids from these schools.
	They know what's happening.
	What do you mean by climate change, lady?
	That's a big question I have.
	I have no problem with conceding and accepting and outright reporting on.
	There's a lot of pollution being dumped in the ocean.
	You've got dead zones forming.
	Fisheries are being overfished.
	Bug populations are rapidly on the decline.
	And I have some serious concerns about the mass pollution created by human beings.
	I don't know that climate change is the apt way to describe it or whether or not the Democrats even take it seriously, but I do think that humans are causing massive problems environmentally that should be considered.
	I don't know what the answers are.
	It's mostly not the U.S.
	It's Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands that are dumping the most waste into the oceans.
	As for the decrease in bug population, I don't know how this gets past most conservatives.
	What is it called?
	The windshield phenomenon or something?
	Let me see if I can pull this one up.
	Phenomenon.
	Is it called the Windshield Phenomenon?
	Okay, that was it.
	This is something to consider.
	It's the observation that fewer dead insects accumulate on the windshields and front bumpers of people's cars since the early 2000s.
	It has been attributed to global decline in insect populations caused by human activity, such as pesticides.
	Well, for whatever reason.
	That's not necessarily climate change, but I think human activity is causing some serious problems because bugs are near the bottom of the food chain for terrestrial creatures, and, uh, well, we need them.
	The chickens eat the bugs, and then we eat the chickens and their eggs.
	Good question.
	Well, I need only ask Barack Obama why he bought waterfront property in Martha's Vineyard that, according to climate change experts, will be underwater.
	Or why Miami Beach property is still available, and when they issue loans on these properties, they don't have to include governmental warnings saying this property is worthless after 20 years because of climate change increasing water levels.
	Yeah, about that.
	You see, that's why people are going to put climate change in air quotes.
	Because your leaders can't rightly explain their own position on these things.
	But she says, otherwise smart people, but educated.
	And the dude took seething umbrage when my friend mentioned the damage Trump had done.
	Maybe it's because the real concern was the damage Joe Biden has done and is doing.
	I mean, the cost of food is through the roof, up double digits, rent is through the roof, health care, all of these issues are negatively impacting young people and families who are struggling.
	Maybe that's why they're upset.
	I love this.
	I think the reality here is these Trump supporters know that you are deranged and would call them a maggot and realize they didn't want to make things unpleasant.
	Because I've been there.
	See, I don't call these people libtards or anything like that.
	Well, I'll call them cultists because she's certainly a cultist.
	If I'm having dinner with someone and they start getting agitated, And they're getting angry?
	I'm gonna drop it.
	Look, man, we're just here to have lunch.
	I'm not here to freak anybody out.
	These people clearly can't handle it.
	As evidenced by her, I'm haunted.
	The dinner haunts me.
	Dude, I assure you, not a single Trump supporter is haunted by having dinner with a liberal.
	That's hilarious.
	But here's the response.
	Roasted by MAGA fans.
	Here we go.
	The whole thread is so embarrassing for you, wrote Tommy Loren.
	Red in DC says, by all means, don't let your oversized ego blind you to thinking you're the arbiter of truth.
	C. Hall says, it's quite hilarious how absolutely and utterly right you think you are and how absolutely and utterly wrong you think everyone else is.
	That clearly says more about you than anyone else.
	Self-awareness, zero, says David Klug.
	And I can just go to her Twitter thread.
	Cernovich responded saying, you fell for the Russiagate hoax.
	Yeah, she did.
	She probably still believes it, though, to be completely honest.
	One person said, You live in your bubble.
	People are fed up with the self-righteous progressives.
	Freedom of thought precedes freedom of speech.
	She said, How about don't vote for career fraudsters who are willing to lie tens of thousands of times, sexually abuse women, and steal, basic enough?
	Is she talking about Joe Biden?
	Is that about Joe Biden?
	Well, let's go for it.
	Career fraudster.
	Joe Biden.
	charisma scandal, 10% for the big guy. The testimony of Devon Archer and Tony Bob Yelinski.
	The influence peddling of Joe Biden, keeping classified documents in his garage, sexually
	abused women, Tara Reid. How about the videos of him sniffing children and touching them
	inappropriately? Stealing? Well, you know, I think when it comes to Joe Biden,
	we can talk about the influence peddling and the fact that Biden Inc. reported on by Politico
	magazine talking about how the Biden family's fortunes tracked, interestingly, alongside his
	That's how they described it.
	With his brother, Jimmy, getting his lucrative contracts right alongside where Joe Biden was overseeing things as Vice President.
	Namely, lucrative contracts in the Middle East.
unidentified		Hmm.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		How about that?
		So I think we can call that stealing.
		Basic enough?
unidentified		Sure.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Basic enough.
		Now you want to criticize Trump as a career fraudster?
		I don't see it.
		Trump certainly has made attempts at failed branding and silly things.
		I think there's a big difference between like Trump University, which is...
		Pretty sad, if you were to ask me.
		And, I don't know, like, cutting backroom deals for construction projects for your brother, and having your son work on the board of a Ukrainian energy company, and quote-unquote 10% for the big guy, all of that, big difference.
		I can criticize Trump, though.
		He tried to have the G7 at Trump Doral, saying, it'll be cheaper, and it's a good thing.
		Nah, not a smart move.
		But to Trump's credit, he actually backed off and said, okay, fine, we won't do it.
		State Department website was advertising Trump properties, Yeah, no.
		Definitely not.
		The one thing I do like, though, is apparently during the Trump term, he had, I think, Air Force personnel stayed at one of his resorts in Scotland or something.
		I don't remember exactly where.
		And it wasn't actually about him booking it, it was he was staying there as president.
		That makes sense.
		The president is going to stay somewhere and he owns a property and just covers the costs and it's no profit, then that I think is totally acceptable.
		Hosting the G7 though, that's like the government's got to pay money for that, like the president's staying places I totally get.
		Well, let's talk about this lady.
		Fraudster!
		Here you go, ma'am.
		Here's the story from, uh, when is this from?
		We'll put the date on this one.
		October 2020.
		Hilarious moment CNN reporter Michelle Kozinski was caught out exaggerating flooding as she denies affair with UK's former ambassador.
		I really don't care about that.
		But we do have the video, which we will play for you now.
		Here you go.
unidentified		But first, the severe flooding here in the Northeast as more rain continues to fall today.
unidentified		NBC's Michelle Kosinski is in Wayne, New Jersey this morning.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Michelle, good morning to you.
unidentified		Good morning.
unidentified		Well, obviously, we're getting a nice break from the rain, but not the flooding.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is essentially now a part of... And now, for those that are listening, two men walk past her in her boat, and the water appears to be, okay, maybe eight inches?
unidentified		...river in this neighborhood.
		It rushed in yesterday through the streets, and it's really tough to control a canoe or boat when you're out in it.
		It's much deeper back there, because this is really...
		Actually, Michelle, I'll take it.
		Is there some kind of severe drop-off there between the four granite?
		We'll go back.
		We saw these guys a second ago.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Michelle, are these holy men walking on top of the water?
		Holy men walking on top of the water?
		Okay, it's gotta be like four inches.
unidentified		When you have a ride like this, why would you want to walk?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Have you run ashore yet?
unidentified		They wouldn't let me go back into the deep water because they were afraid I would just drift out.
unidentified		Strange piece of video there, Michelle.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Why would you go into the deep one?
		This is the reality of the corporate press.
		This is who this lady is.
		Her job is to lie, cheat, and steal.
		And she has the nerve to complain about Donald Trump.
		He's a career fraudster who lies.
		You think I'm going to believe anything you've ever reported on after pulling a stunt like this and getting roasted live on TV?
		If those dudes didn't walk by, she would have presented the image that the water was substantially worse.
		Oh boy!
		Anderson Cooper did the same thing!
		Remember this one?
		Here's an image of Anderson Cooper in waist deep water while his camera guy is in what appears to be like four to six inch deep water.
		Now Anderson Cooper addressed this.
		That's right.
		He addressed it saying, no that's not true and here's the video.
		Let me show you how Anderson Cooper addressed this.
		He got mad because Don Jr.
		called it out.
unidentified		Here's what he said.
		couple cars go by with people.
		We don't want to put a camera in their face just out of respect for them.
		As for those who think I was kneeling or faking the water level or making it look worse than
		it was or standing in some sort of a hole, this is an area where people have been trapped
		on the roofs of their homes by water.
		The idea that I am kneeling in water to make it look deep is frankly idiotic.
		Here in Wilmington, New Hanover County, this has become a deadly hurricane now with two
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		fatalities, a mom and her infant.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Washington Post now criticizing other reporters who have done similar things.
unidentified		Boy, I tell you, look at the wind just whipping the palm trees.
		The person you see there, his name was Doug Thomas, the audio tech.
		He worked for CNN for 26 years.
		He covered a lot of storms and a lot of stories.
		He died a year ago this month.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm sad to hear that he died when they reported this, but yeah, okay.
		So now they're like, well, look, he died, you know, and that's a deflection, my friend, a deflection.
		Let's break it down.
		No one sane or reasonable is arguing you're kneeling to fake the water level.
		But this is the game they play.
		They take an actual criticism, switch the story, debunk the fake story they set up, a straw man, and knock it over.
		Let's steel man.
		So, I think most of you know this, but for the younger people, straw man is when you create a straw man.
		A man made of straw.
		A version of a person's argument that is so weak you can knock it over yourself.
		A steel man is when you give them a giant steel suit of armor and then attempt to knock them down.
		This is a straw man set up by Anderson Cooper.
		The argument is that he walked into the deep area to film instead of standing on the road where the water is not so deep.
		As if to imply that's where everyone is now.
		That being said, you can clearly see homes behind him are flooded, and the floodwaters are high in that area.
		The point is, his camera guy is standing on the road where it's not so deep, and he walked off the road to a lower elevation so that he'd be standing in deeper water.
		Get it?
		So what Anderson Cooper has to do to protect the story is say, to assume I was kneeling, here's me walking.
		And I'm like, uh-huh, yeah, there's you walking.
		And you could be walking on the road in six inches of water instead of in three feet of water.
		So why did you go into the ditch?
		Or some sort of hole is ludicrous.
		No.
		I think the homes are flooded.
		I think the water levels were high.
		And I think he's standing in an area with high water levels, that's true.
		And I don't think he needed to be.
		What he could have done is he could have stood on the road and say, we're standing here on a road slightly more elevated than some of these lower positions.
		If we were to go down there, we'd be in much deeper water.
		This is why you end up with a photo like this.
		People calling out reporters for doing this all the time.
		Then you have this video where there's a guy in the background walking just fine in hurricane wind, and the reporter's going like, whoa, whoa, I'm getting blown away there.
		Because this is what they do.
		It's sad, really.
		This is where we're currently at.
		This woman is fake news.
		She's either stupid or a cultist.
		And she's calling people maggots.
		A maggot.
		Maggots.
		I really want to emphasize the T on that one.
		Because they simply disagreed with her on some things.
		I'll tell you what I think.
		I think this lady actually knows that there's genuine grievances that people don't like Joe Biden.
		But this is what we're dealing with right now.
		Low cognitive function and manipulators.
		You've got Democrats who are marching in lockstep with the narrative machine, even as it drives off a cliff, and then you have their enablers who just want to say these things either to maintain brand value, to virtue signal to the cult, but it accomplishes nothing.
		Imagine if you said, I was sitting down, here's a story I can tell you.
		This is hypothetical.
		I'm sitting down with friends, and there were some other people there who were college-educated, and I was not surprised to discover that they were liberal-progressive and had no idea what they were talking about.
		They thought that Donald Trump was trying to dig up dirt on Ukraine, and they didn't know what the impeachment was about.
		They didn't know what actually happened with the Burisma scandal.
		They think that Joe Biden never said, if you don't fire the prosecutor, you're not getting a billion dollars, which he did.
		It's on camera.
		That's who these people are.
		So what do you get?
		Certainly there are some Trump supporters who don't know a whole lot and just blindly march in lockstep for Donald Trump.
		However, the reality is most people that you're going to meet, especially educated or, you know, working people, we call them fast walkers, They're going to be able to tell you reasons.
		They're going to be able to break things down for you as to why they believe what they believe and why they're supporting Donald Trump.
		So I can certainly tell you, the border is out of control.
		We have enclaves popping up of illegal immigrants all over the country.
		Crime is on the rise.
		The economy is in a crappy position.
		And no matter how often an economist or Biden or whoever says, the economy is great, doesn't change the fact that working class people are struggling to make ends meet.
	And of course the response is going to be, but look at the numbers!
	The numbers are so good!
	And I'm like, oh that's fantastic your numbers are good.
	I don't care.
	How many videos have we seen of people saying they can't afford to buy bacon and eggs anymore?
	How many videos are we seeing of people saying I can't afford to make ends meet to feed my family?
	You can say whatever you want about how your numbers appear, but numbers, especially in this regard, we're looking at the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer, and then you're saying median salaries are on the rise.
	The average salary and the median salary are both on the rise.
	And I'm like, yeah, the rich are skyrocketing and the poor are going down.
	But by all means, call people who disagree with you politically insects.
	Have fun with that.
	I'll leave it there.
	Next segment's coming up at 4 p.m.
	on this channel.
	Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
	Nick Fuentes comments on the Tim Pool-Jake Shields Twitter fight.
	Now, many of you may be saying, what is this all about, Tim, and why are you engaging in online drama?
	Well, I actually think this one's interesting, and it pertains to the bigger picture of censorship, free speech, what's going on with Israel, and I do think what we're seeing here matters, for the most part.
	In terms of how we solve problems politically, mostly due to censorship.
	And I think the big question here is, why is it so difficult to host people like Nick Fuentes and people like Jake Shields?
	And, of course, responding to the insinuations and accusations against Tim Castairelso.
	We'll get into the weeds of the drama.
	But again, to reiterate, I believe the weeds of the drama explain an issue with censorship that will be enlightening to many people as it pertains to podcasting and YouTube.
	And I will also say, I think it is for these reasons, TimCast, IRL, and TimCast are, you know, sort of just in the bubble that they are.
	The corporate press, the mainstream, is much more willing to support you if you flat-out endorse particular worldviews.
	And if you're open and honest about what's going on, and entertain ideas that are bad, you will be harmed by it.
	But let's start with this clip from Nick, and then we will break down what's currently going on, and I'll give you the quick gist before we do.
	This has to do with an attempt to book a guest, an MMA fighter named Jake Shields, and ultimately his demand that if he does come on, he would only do it if Nick Fuentes came on as well.
	Let me play this clip for you from Nick Fuentes, then I'll show you what Jake Shields says, and then I will break down the issue of censorship, particularly pertaining to Nick Fuentes, in general.
	So I think this could be enlightening for many people.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		That's ridiculous.
		Tim Pool is just, like, a total joke.
		Tim Pool invited Jake Shields and said, you can bring anybody you want, and Jake- False!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I did not invite Jake Shields.
		I don't do booking for TimCast IRL.
		Nor did I ever say to anyone, bring whoever you want.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		...Shields said, I'll bring Nick Fuentes.
		Then Tim Pool said, oh, we have to debate people.
		And we gave them names.
		They're like, no, not that one.
		No, not that one.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Lie.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no one will do it.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		And then they just ghosted Jake Shields.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Alright, I'm willing to go full bore on this one as to what I know for the sake of Nick and ghosting Jake Shields a little bit more.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		So those people are always playing games.
		I'm so sick of playing games.
		Bring us on the show, don't bring us on the show.
		I don't give a fuck.
		The show sucks anyway.
		Bring us on, don't bring us on, but stop playing games and lying.
		Oh, well, we can't have you on because, uh, well, you keep asking to come.
		We won't bring you on because your followers ask.
		We won't bring you on because no one will debate.
		Shut the fu- Do it or don't do it and shut the fuck up.
		Stop with the games.
		But you know what it is?
		They don't want to admit that they have sold out.
		They will not bring me on because they are terrified of being censored.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's correct.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		Just say it.
		Everyone knows it.
		They keep making up countless excuses.
		We can't bring them on for this reason.
		We can't bring them on for that reason.
		Everyone knows they're afraid of losing their channel.
		Fine.
		Just say that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You're not a- We literally did.
		That's exactly what we told Jake Shields.
		So let's go back.
		And I'll play a little bit and then we'll break it down for you.
		Didn't ghost Jake Shields.
		He texted me like a week ago.
		I don't know.
		I was just in Mar-a-Lago.
		I'm running a business.
		I record 16 hours a day.
		It's absolutely remarkable where it's just like, you know, you have these people and it's so rough.
		It's so rough, right?
		You try to give everyone you can the time of day, okay?
		I got 2 million followers on Axe.
		I don't even look at mentions anymore.
		I can't even respond to people for the most part.
		Sometimes I might pop in, but usually I don't.
		And on this channel, It's like 1.2 or whatever million.
		IRL is 1.6 million.
		The Culture War is 1.3 million.
		And our podcast is another 1.3 million, the podcast platform.
		And these are overlapping but largely different audiences.
		We track this through unique viewership.
		And certainly not the biggest show.
		We average the largest live audience.
		But it's impossible for me to deal with literally everybody who I'm trying to talk to.
		And I actually told Jake Shields, text me like once a week because I'm busy.
		But let's play more.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		So those people are always playing games.
		I'm so sick of playing games.
		Bring us on the show, don't bring us on the show.
		I don't give a fuck.
		The show sucks anyway.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, sour grapes now, huh Nick?
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼		Bring us on, don't bring us on, but stop playing games and lying.
		Oh, well, we can't have you on because, uh, well, you keep asking to come.
		We won't bring you on because your followers ask.
		We won't bring you on because no one will debate.
		Shut the fu- Do it or don't do it and shut the fuck up.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So let's break this down.
		Let me tell you the story.
		We'll start with a tweet here from Jake Shields.
		He says, Tim Pool is such a joke of a man with no principles.
		Last month he told me he would let have and Nick Fuentes on to debate Israel.
		Later he called and said he didn't feel equipped to debate and needed to find multiple Zionists for the panel.
		False!
		I don't debate Zionism.
		The Culture War Show, when it is a debate, is, as anybody knows who's watched it, two different people.
		For instance, maybe you watched last week's episode on abortion, where we had a pro-choice pastor and a pro-life activist.
		And of course, because of the disparity, Between, you know, like, the moderate position and the leftist position.
		Certainly had many questions for the pro-choice guy, but I certainly had questions for the pro-left individual as well.
		And many people pointed out we had Vosch and Charlie Kirk on TimCast IRL.
		Again, I moderated.
		There are certain things where I may debate someone.
		We did have an episode of Vosch where we debated.
		And my position being, like, classically or traditionally liberal versus their progressive position is when we debated.
		However, let me tell you what happened.
		Actually, let me finish this tweet for him.
		He says, I called him back last week to see what he wanted to do, and he ignored my calls.
		Eventually, he had his employee tell me that he changed his mind.
		Personally, I believe a man should always keep his word, and if he doesn't, at least have the balls to talk to who you lied to.
		These are our brave right-wing influencers.
		I wonder why Nick Fuentes didn't want to mention Laura Loomer.
		I wonder why Jake and Nick did not mention Laura Loomer.
		I like Laura.
		I think she's fierce, I think she's the biggest Trump supporter imaginable, and possibly the tip of the spear of all spears, one of the most effective at getting PR.
		Really, wow!
		And so, considering Laura is Jewish, and I believe, I don't want to put words in her mouth, a Zionist, we said this would be the biggest show ever, let's do it.
		Laura said no.
		I'm like, okay, you know, sorry Laura to bring your name up, but if this is the game they're going to play, and they don't want to mention the show we tried to organize, with all due respect, maybe Laura's unable to do it for whatever reason.
		Those are her reasons.
		I don't do booking.
		I don't know.
		Maybe Laura, I don't know.
		I can tell you this.
		Cassandra Fairbanks does booking for Timcast IRL.
		I don't.
		I often don't know who the guests are.
		We have a guest roster, and names pop up, and I say, oh, cool.
		Lisa Reynolds books guests for The Culture War.
		Lisa Reynolds tried to book Jake Shields months ago.
		We reached out trying to get him on the show.
		He didn't want to do it.
		I don't know why.
		I don't do booking.
		So I'll tell you what happens.
		I get a message from Cassandra.
		Saying, uh, I reached out to Jake Shields to have him on the show.
		He says he'll only do it if we allow Nick Fuentes on.
		What do you think?
		And I was like, oh, here we go.
		Because I know exactly what's going to happen.
		You can't just have Nick Fuentes on your show.
		Nick knows this.
		Jake Shields knows this.
		I don't know what their game is.
unidentified		So here's what I said.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		There's a way you can do it.
		So I said, let me call Jake Shields.
		DM'd him, hit him up.
		And I basically told him.
		You want to come in and talk about the Jews, right?
		Oh, he says Israel?
		No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
		Let me show you.
		When he says, you lie like a Jew, on his Twitter account, there it is, right on the screen for you, he's not talking about coming on and debating Israel, okay?
		And so, I get on the phone with him.
		And I said, if you want to talk about Jews and Israel, we will be banned, okay?
		Like, if you come on, you and Nick, and all you do is start saying things like, you lie like a Jew, we'll get banned.
		Now, in their crackpot, brain-melted world, they think it's because Jews are out to get them.
		In reality, there is a ban on all hate speech.
		You can't say that of Muslims.
		You can't say that of trans people, of gay people.
		In fact, Facebook actually started banning people, women, feminists, for putting hashtag kill all men.
		Not that I think typically they will ban people who are racist towards white people, but it's not just because Israel is controlling everything.
		Oh, the boogeyman's coming to get you.
		They banned Islamophobia.
unidentified		They banned saying the name of a CIA guy.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So long story short of it is, I call him on the phone and I'm like, we could do a really big show.
		I talked to our people, like Cassandra, she does booking, and I talked to some other individuals who do production.
		We all agree, it could be the biggest show ever, but it has to be a debate otherwise we get banned, right?
		You don't just come on the show and then start saying things like, you lie like a Jew, okay?
		That's like, you get banned for that.
		If you said you lie like a black person or whatever, you get banned for those things too.
		A debate we could do.
		Typically, YouTube's rules pertaining to censorship have to do with if there's pushback or not.
		Although, the rules are nebulous and they'll ban you, whatever you do.
		It's ridiculous.
		It doesn't make it up.
		But the best way to approach it, of course, would be you come on and give your position and we'll have someone else.
		Well, the first thing Jake does is he says, why don't we debate you?
		You're a Zionist.
		And I'm like, what?
		I was like, dude, I'm not a Zionist.
		I don't care for the morality of Israel.
		I think the U.S.
		should divest this military funding and we should be focused on America first.
		And he was insistent, but you're a Zionist and everyone at your company's like, I'm like, most people here are like America first libertarian.
		And I'm like, Jake, you know, Cassandra, she's like hypercritical of Israel all the time.
		I think we actually do have two.
		We have actually, we don't have any employees that I would describe as Zionist.
		We have two contractors who are probably overt Zionist and proudly stating as such out of 40, 40 to 50 employees, most of whom are like, I don't want to fund Israel at all.
		And Israel can fend for themselves.
		I don't care.
		Two of them are outright like, and I don't even think of the people who are totally Zionist are absolutely saying the U.S.
		should be funding it either.
		But this is the conversation we had.
		We invited you to do a show, because Jake has been a political commentator on a lot of things.
		We've praised him for some of his commentary in the past.
		He says I won't come on unless Nick comes on.
		I never offered.
		I never offered.
		I don't do booking.
		I don't know what Cassandra said, I really doubt that's the case.
		But he wanted Nick Fuentes on.
		I said, okay, you want Nick Fuentes on?
		The only way it can happen is if it's a debate, otherwise we get banned.
		Fact.
		Everybody knows that.
		Nick knows it, we know it, you know it.
		Why ask?
		So we offered up what we thought would be an amazing show.
		Laura Loomer.
		We're all friends.
		I respect her work.
		I think she's smart.
		I think she could handle a good debate.
		She says no.
		We are all really disappointed.
		I was even talking to sponsors, and they were like, wow!
		That would be amazing!
		And this idea that we like, we sold out, you know?
		They just want the money.
		They got the call.
		Are you nuts?
		When I talked to some companies and I said, look at this, Nick Fuentes, Jake Shields, Laura Loomer.
		Most of them are like, who's Jake Shields?
		I'm not trying to be disrespectful.
		Jake Shields is an MMA guy.
		He's not in that political space.
		But I was like, you know, Jake's been very active in criticizing Israel with October 7th.
		Nick Fuentes, of course, you know who he is.
	Laura Loomer, of course, you know who she is.
	And it would be a Zionism debate.
	They were like, this is going to be like 5 million views.
	And I'm like, yeah, it's going to be massive.
	And I was like, we want to do it.
	Laura said no.
	I don't know.
	Whatever, man.
	People don't have to do shows they don't want to do.
	We kind of sprung it on her at the last minute and she's probably like, dude, I'm busy.
	I'm campaigning.
	It's campaign season.
	I can't do it.
	And so then you have a handful of other people all refuse to do it.
	Jake Shields offers up Rabbi Shmuley.
	And I said to him on the phone, he sends me a text, you know, like, what about this guy?
	And it's like, I was like, look man, you do realize that if we do a debate with someone like Shmuley, people are just going to claim that you guys bowed out of a real debate.
	Because he's the guy who put on the weird Candace Owens outfit or whatever.
	And I'm like, it's not going to be viewed as a legitimate You know, battle of wits.
	And he agreed!
	At least by—presumably.
	So it was like a week ago.
	He texts me, asking like, what's the status or whatever, and I don't know what I'm doing.
	Look, man, I have probably like a thousand texts.
	I get three to four hundred emails per day, and I can't answer them.
	My phone's muted, completely no vibration, and I never answer it.
	That's why I told Jake a month ago, text me every week, so it stays in mind.
	Because we never said no.
	We were like, we're trying to figure it out.
	Well, what ends up happening is, I guess he hit me up last week, and then he went to Cassandra.
	And again, I don't know exactly what Cassandra's saying, because I don't do booking.
	You know, Cassandra reaches out to me and she asks, like, hey, where are we at with this?
	And I was like, look, if it's not a debate, we'll just get banned.
	What's the point of doing it?
	Like, what is their endgame?
	Just to come on the show and get us banned from YouTube?
	I don't understand.
	And so, my understanding is Cassandra said something to the effect to Jake, like, look, if we just have you on, we'll just get banned.
	And Jake said, I totally understand.
	This is being relayed to me.
	I understand.
	Maybe I'll come on at some point in the future.
	And I thought we were cool.
	Like, here we are trying to set up this show.
	We think it'd be majorly beneficial.
	And what do they end up doing?
	Jake goes on Twitter and says, Is it a joke?
unidentified		pool is a joke. A man of no principles. Last month he told me he would have Fuentes on
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		and now they're lying about it. Is it a joke? In what reality does it make sense that we
		ask you to come on the show, you ask to bring Fuentes on, knowing they suspend and ban people
		for doing so, and then instead of me just saying, like, this is the stupidest thing
		in the world, Nick says, they're playing games.
		They're playing games, just have us on or don't!
		What games, dude?
		What games and what reality are you talking about?
unidentified		Like, we're sitting back here going, mwahaha, let's waste Nick Fuentes' time!
unidentified		What?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's the stupidest thing in the world, and this is the world that they live in.
		And so here's where we end up.
		So Jake starts going off, reposting a bunch of smack talk about me, whining like a little baby that we won't have him on our show.
		The cringiest, like, you know, he says, and it's his show, he can do what he likes, I just don't like liars or people too cowardly to tell you they changed their mind.
		It's funny to me how these people who hate Israel so much are like the whingiest crybabies.
unidentified		Like, I gotta tell you.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Most of these people are, like, I don't even want to say beta.
		Because beta males are second in command.
		They're lieutenants.
		It's a misconception.
		They say you're a beta male.
		And it's just like, look man.
		An alpha is the leader of the pack, and the betas are the commanders.
		You want to say, like, Omega male, or whatever.
		You know, a scrawny, pathetic man who, like, you know, you know what I mean?
		But this, and I mean this sincerely.
		No other group of people has cried so much and screamed and complained like little babies more than these people.
		It is absolutely insane.
		All they want to do is they want to come on and they want to say things like, this is Jake Shields on Twitter.
		He says, Tim, I never ask to come on your show because I think it's boring.
		I have at least a dozen emails from three separate booking agents of yours and I told them no every time.
		Yeah, I don't tell them what to do.
		They book who they feel like booking.
		I only agreed to do it with Nick because I want to piss people off and help Nick get back on big shows.
		And there it is.
		And then he says, you lie like a Jew.
		That's what they want to do.
		They want to come on Tim Kest IRL, cause problems, piss people off, break things, hurt people, and this is exactly what they're doing now.
		So let me break things down for you, because I got no problem talking about it.
		I don't care.
unidentified		They're like, Tim's scared to have Nick Fuentes on, blah blah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Scared?
		Moral, factual.
		You have Nick Fuentes on your show, you get banned.
		That's it.
		You have Nick Fuentes debate someone on your show, and they don't ban you.
		That's just it.
		That's how the game is played.
		You don't want to do it?
		Fine.
		Nobody wants to do it with you?
		It's because you're a whiny baby.
		Who... Okay, I'll put it this way.
		I talked about it.
		Like, look at what Jake Shields is saying, and I'll show you another tweet from him.
		I quote tweeted him.
		You lie like a Jew.
		That's Jake Shields.
		He said, Tim, you said I asked to come on your show, which is a flat-out lie.
		Yeah, Jake, I didn't invite you, OK?
		My booking agents are reaching out to a bunch of people, and you wanted Nick Fuentes on.
		You asked for us to have Nick Fuentes.
		You asked.
		And so I talked to you, and you said, I want Nick Fuentes to come on.
		I said, OK.
		Here's your request.
		Here's how we can accommodate.
		And then you started crying like a low-T beta baby bitch on Twitter.
		Why won't you have me on the show?
		Aw, poor baby.
		So pathetic.
		No other group does this.
		I go to liberals and they tell me to screw off.
		They don't want to come on the show.
		They don't cry when we won't have them on.
		You are the only person who's, like, there's one other person who tweeted and that was it, but you just went nuts!
		Just, like, pouting and banging on the table, crying, I just wanted to piss people off and bring Funtas on, but your show's boring anyway!
		Aww.
		What a loser.
		He says, most people in the past six months have noticed one group lies more than all the others.
		You are aware, but you want the money.
		Like, I don't know, man.
		Look, These people, this is their game.
		This is the game they play.
		This is why people don't want to invite them on shows.
		And this is why, the moment Jake Shields says, bring Nick Fuentes on, we know, like, okay.
		We know what that means.
		It means Jake Shields is laughing, thinking, I am going to cause problems on social media.
		Now, I'll tell you the reality.
		I don't think Jake Shields is literally crying like a little whiny baby bitch.
		I think this was his plan the whole time.
		I think he and Nick Fuentes get attention by playing the victim and acting like martyrs.
		The reason Nick Fuentes is going on his show and going, Oh, you won't have me on the show!
		That was the point the whole time.
		That's it.
		They don't want to come on the show.
		They think it's boring.
		They think it sucks.
		They don't want to come on the show.
		They just asked to come on the show and then complained about it later.
		Well, then how did these pieces come together?
		I believe Nick Fuentes doesn't want to come on the show.
		I believe Jake Shields doesn't want to come on the show.
		I think the whole intention here is to put us in a situation they know we can't accommodate, cause problems so that they can generate attention and act like we did something wrong.
		And here I was thinking, let's play, baby.
	You want to bring Nick on the show, we'll do it.
	Here's how it's done.
	Unfortunately for them, everyone hates them.
	And nobody wants to come on the show.
	Nobody.
	And then he offers up, like, gag, you know, individuals, and I was like, okay, I'm like, you realize no one's gonna take you seriously if you do that, and they're like, yeah, you're right.
	Then they act like we backed out of it.
	Okay.
	Here's the reality of Nick Fuentes.
	His audience are the biggest crybabies on the internet.
	Like, look, All the people now posting pictures of me with yarmulkes and me getting my hat pulled off and stuff, I've never seen such whinging.
	No other group does this.
	Khan Inc.
	doesn't do it.
	The Daily Wire fans don't do it.
	Like, what is this?
	Trump supporters don't do it.
	But these people just cry all day.
	They sit at their computers and they cry.
	Like, I don't know.
	I don't mean figurative cry.
	Like, they're tweeting up, like, why would you?
unidentified		Debate him!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Debate him!
		It's like, what is this?
		What is this whinging?
		What is this panicked whinging?
		Man, I swear, two groups of people, you drop in the middle of the woods and say, survive.
		That would never do it.
		It's going to be the woke left and Nick Fuentes' fan base.
		You put them in the woods, they're going to be like, I have no idea how to live.
		They're going to sit there and bang on trees, screaming and crying like babies.
		It's remarkable how much they go on Twitter and cry about it.
		I tell you this, go look at all the comments.
		Go look at all the responses.
		And Jake's like, haha, I ratioed you.
		It's like, dude, your audience is crying and begging for attention more than any other group.
		You know, you got people who are successful who go out there every day and they build a platform.
		Why don't you make your own show, Jake?
		Why don't you build a show that Nick can go on?
		Because they're gonna ban us.
		Yeah, because all you do is cry about Jews.
		And then you live in this crackpot reality where you just think it's true.
		You took the money.
		Money from who?
		We had sponsors that were interested in that show.
		Interested in that debate.
		Money from who?
		Our network of members and sponsors?
		Let me tell you the reality of Nick Fuentes.
		Well, I'll also shout this to Chris Burtman, who tweeted this, where I got the clip.
		Nick Fuentes was on the show with Ye, and he walked off.
		I don't blame him for that, at all.
		He's working with Ye and Milo.
		Ye walked off because Ye's also, like, this is, like, look at this, like, Ye could not handle even 28 minutes of a debate.
		And it wasn't even a debate!
		He asked me a question.
		He's like, who is they, though?
		And I was like, corporate press, the establishment, Uniparty, the military-industrial complex.
		And he got so mad that I wouldn't say ze Jews, he stormed off.
		Only person to ever do that.
		This is my point.
		These people are the whiniest babies.
		They can't handle scrutiny, they can't handle reality, and so I think the intention of people like Fuentes is, knowing they can't go on these shows in these circumstances, trying to get banned by saying shocking things like Jake did, come on, everybody and their mom knows.
		You go on any social media platform aside from X and say something like, you lie like a Jew, and you're gonna get banned because of hate speech rules because of woke left policies.
		They'll then make an excuse and they'll blame the Jews or whatever, but I'll put it this way.
		Nick Fuentes' audience intentionally causes drama and crisis for individuals.
		Nick Fuentes has fans, and I said this on Friday, when Elijah Schafer was here, I don't think these are actually his fans, because these are people claiming to be Groypers, claiming to be fans of Fuentes, who will threaten to rape and murder children.
		And I'm like, I really don't think those are Nick's fans.
		I'm willing to bet those are, like, leftists who are trying to make Nick look bad.
		Mary Morgan was on the show, and she's like, no, that's ridiculous.
		And Elijah Tafer also said, no, that's ridiculous.
		And then a bunch of people in chat were like, that's absolutely not true.
		And I'm like, Okay, I guess.
		Maybe I'm wrong.
		Maybe it really is that Nick Fuentes' fans just want to rape and murder children or just threaten to do so to cause problems for people.
		Fine.
		Whatever you think.
		I don't care.
		It doesn't make sense to me, but who am I to know?
		It doesn't make sense to me that someone who claims to be a fan of Nick who actually wants him to espouse a message would destroy his opportunity to do so.
		So here's what I explained.
		And then they all cry about it.
		The reason why nobody has Nick on the show, there's two reasons.
		One, outside of a debate format, you get banned.
		That's it.
		There has to be a debate format.
	That's basically how YouTube operates.
	And such as YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, whatever.
	Rumble and X are way better.
	You can do Rumble and X. So if you want to come on my YouTube live show, then we're like, oh, well, it's got to be a debate.
	And so we were planning on having them on Culture War, and the funny thing is how excited everybody was for the debate show with Nick Fuentes, Laura Loomer, and Jake Shields.
	And Lauren didn't want to do it.
	Okay, no beef.
	I'm not trying to drag Laura, but I think that if Nick Fuentes wants to come out and act like we did not try to organize this without mentioning we had probably one of the best show ideas imaginable, you know, I don't have to tell you.
	But here's the reality.
	With the degree of threats you get from Fuentes' audience, you have to pay security, and you have to pay insurance, and these things cause problems for businesses.
	That's why I think, you know, it's intentional.
	It's intentional that they do these things knowing you're between a rock and a hard place.
	And I think they do it because they actually don't have the ability to actually debate.
	So I'll put it this way.
	I take a look at any political faction, the left, and they whinge and they complain on social media all the time, but not demanding people go on your show or whatever.
	Sometimes, but not as much.
	And they certainly engage in cancel culture.
	That's what they do.
	I think the reason the Groypers do this is that it's a shield for Nick.
	Now Nick can go on his show and say, oh, you're just scared of being censored.
	Well, dude, when your fans threaten to rape children, okay?
	And I'm gonna say this again, my argument is it's not really fans of Nick who do this.
	But take a look at anybody posting DMs, posting emails, and there's people
	publicly sharing these things on X.
	I'm like, that's gotta be someone faking it, because there's no way Nick's faking it.
	If the argument is these really are Nick's fans, then it sounds to me like they do this to make sure Nick doesn't actually have to stand up to debate.
	This way he gets to be a martyr, he gets to claim he's being censored, he gets to claim that people are playing games with him.
	Like, what game would there be to play?
	Why would I be like, I'm gonna call you two times and actually ask people to organize a debate and work on sponsorships.
	What game is being played?
	It's ridiculous.
	How about I just say no?
	They live in this fake world where everyone's playing games with them.
	Okay.
	If someone's playing a game, I'll tell you why.
	It's because these guys sick their followers on you and do this.
	They go on their show, they cause a storm, and then they try and get you to send a bunch of threats, and then what happens?
	For anybody who's running a decently large operation with multiple employees, which has security requirements because of insurance, it's gonna cost you money.
	It's lawfare, effectively.
	And it's a different kind.
	Nick knows he's small and he's censored.
	So when he throws a Molotov cocktail at someone's business, the political blowback is minimal for him.
	And for the business, it's massive.
	That's lawfare.
	So when his followers start sending threats and doing these things, And then our insurance company gets angry, and I shouldn't say ours, but for like events and things like this, insurance companies take issue with the degree of threats and the security assessment, and then you have to pay for reinforced security, your insurance rates goes up, that doesn't affect him.
	So typically what happens is, they will ignore him.
	They will just say, you mentioned the name Fuentes, no dice, because he's fake.
	That's it.
	He's fake.
	I'll tell you this.
	I don't actually know why Nick even has to get dragged into this.
	I don't care.
	Jake Shields is the one who got asked to come on the show, but he asked that he could come with Nick Fuentes.
	That's what I mean when I say he asked to come on.
	I suppose the reality is, if you take a holistic view of what Fuentes is and what he does, and you break it all down, what you see is something that makes no sense at all.
	Why would his followers send threats to people, berate people, attack them, downvote, thumbs down, all of that stuff?
	Why would they do that?
	Unless the intention was to make sure nobody wants to associate with Nick.
	Then I assume they're not really his fans, right?
	Well, I'm told I'm wrong.
	The situation surrounding Nick doesn't make sense at all.
	His business strategy has no real business strategy.
	He's not trying to espouse a message.
	I think he's a shock jock who's found a gullible bunch of morons who will give him money and support him and then tweet a whole bunch of stupid nonsense for no reason because it just props him up.
	That's it.
	The ultimate grift.
	If Nick Fuentes was serious, he wouldn't do the things he did.
	He wouldn't lie.
	He wouldn't complain.
	If Jake Shields was serious.
	But Jake Shields pointed it out.
	He's just trying to piss people off.
	That's what he said.
	And he hates Jews.
	Well, okay.
	So they try to make the claim that me, some dude with a YouTube channel, not even the biggest, is working for Jews.
	I think what they've found is a group of gullible individuals who are hyper-focused on Jews as their problem, live in bubble world, and so long as Nick can create the perception that he is being oppressed by ze Jews, they'll keep giving him money.
	You know, directly or indirectly.
	That's my view of it.
	Because I'll put it this way.
	If he really wanted to come on shows, he would be doing the opposite of what he was doing.
	There are many people—I'll give you an example.
	We had a guest on IRL who was anti-abortion, and he refused to say it.
	He refused to say he was anti-abortion.
	He said, it's not helpful.
	I said, it's abortion and murder.
	He said, I don't want to say that.
	Why?
	He's playing politics, trying to win a political cause.
	Do you think that Jake Shields and Nick Fuentes are actually trying to expose Israel or Zionists or Jews?
	Certainly, this is not the way you'd go about doing it, right?
	You'd go about doing it in other means, like, anyone in the world knows if you go on YouTube and claim, as Jake Shields did, saying things like, you lie like a Jew, then you get banned.
	Well, where is there any positive impact on your message or cause?
	For what purpose would Jake Shields want to bring on Nick Fuentes knowing that simply saying these things would result in the channel getting banned?
	In no way would that actively help their cause.
	All you gotta do is answer me that.
	In what way does that help the cause of exposing a power structure?
	The reality is, it does not.
	Okay, then what's their real aim?
	Honestly, I have no idea.
	But either they're morons, or they're intent—and I don't think that's the case.
	Maybe Jake, I don't know.
	He doesn't seem to know up from down.
	I know that Nick is a smart guy.
	So then I have to look at what Nick is doing, and I think, I don't think Nick's stated intentions are genuine.
	Because this is not how you'd go about actually addressing a power dynamic.
	I can break it down in terms of, like, let's say you're a Native American.
	And you're trying to figure out how to reject the colonialism.
	What did they do?
	They built casinos.
	Did they go to war?
	No.
	There's strategy.
	There's indirect methods of gaining power.
	And Yellowstone was a great fictionalized depiction of a Native American tribe competing with the interests of a white settler who took their land.
	And then if you look at the prequel show, it was like the family came there and they were like, in seven generations, the land will be yours.
	And it wasn't the case.
	How do you win a war?
	Okay, well, if you're someone who's a big fan of Nick Fuentes, you have to ask yourself, at what point are they actually going to try to win?
	Because, like, imagine you've got a castle.
	A large castle with a king sitting atop the tower in the center of the castle.
	And you and seven of your cohorts with sticks, pointy sticks, are running at the stone walls and poking them while screaming, help, help, we're being repressed.
	Does that look like you're anywhere near challenging any kind of power structure?
	No.
	But there's certainly one guy sitting behind you saying, keep going, keep going, you're getting closer!
	At a certain point you have to realize, you're not.
	So that's why I think it's fake.
	I don't think these guys are real.
	This is the reality of that whole world.
	It's fake.
	Now Donald Trump, he's a guy who's effective.
	He doesn't just come out, and there's political strategies, so I'll give you a really great example.
	The Supreme Court arguments.
	I said Trump should be at the oral arguments for presidential immunity, and Trump said nothing about it.
	He said, I want to go, but they won't let me go.
	I want to go, they won't let me go.
	And I was like, what?
	Then go!
	You look weak!
	After the oral arguments, then we figured it out.
	Indirect strategy.
	Trump's legal team feared that if he showed up to the oral arguments, it would shift the argument from, is the president immune to, is Donald Trump acting in his official capacity?
	Which wasn't answered.
	They wanted to make sure that the arguments stayed on focus of the presidential office and not him personally.
	And by him personally being there, it would create a focus on him being there.
	It would cause issues with him grimacing, or they'd say, look what he's doing in the courtroom, and it would make him the story.
	Trump is hoping to win this one for the presidential office, which will benefit him.
	That's strategy.
	I respect it.
	So, there's also the Trump going to Barron's graduation.
	I said he should go anyway.
	Well, Trump just said, they won't let me go.
	I guess I can't go.
	And then they caved.
	Why?
	If Barron Trump Went to court instead of his graduation and then made a statement, like one of his first, and said, on one of the most important days of my life, my graduation, this court refused to let my father attend, so I will come here instead to support my family because family matters most.
	That would have been a massive PR blow.
	There's strategy there.
	I ask you this.
	What is the strategy in what they're doing?
	Well, certainly in terms of their stated political goals, there's none.
	In terms of generating attention for themselves, acting like martyrs, and building up their cult fanbase that are gullible and willing to believe it, it seems to make sense.
	Now, I'll end with this.
	Long video, huh?
	The fans of Nick Fuentes will not be swayed by anything I say, and I really don't care.
	They live in WALL-E world.
	They live in this magical fictional world where Israel is the most powerful organization in the history of mankind, which is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
	While certainly disproportionately powerful relative to many other countries, wealthy, and APEC certainly is powerful.
	They seem to forget, like, Saudis are directly implicated in 9-11.
	Saudi Arabia is being sued over it.
	The U.S.
	bends the knee every day to Saudi Arabia because of their ability to control the flow of petroleum around the world, which could screw over the petrodollar.
	And the U.S.
	has been implicated in the death of over 100,000 Yemeni civilians, including, I think, around that many children.
	Not to mention the extrajudicial assassination of Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki, and the fact that in Dearborn, Michigan, you have female circumcision on the rise, and you have...
	Islamophobia is a bannable offense on social media and has been for 10 years.
	They ignore all that stuff.
	They ignore Donald Trump getting impeached for suspending military aid to Ukraine, while when Joe Biden suspends aid to Israel, nothing happens.
	They ignore the fact that Joe Biden is defying the Israeli government and telling them to stop invading Rafah, and the fact that the U.S.
	government has been apparently trying to oust the Israeli government and stall a new, more favorable government.
	But it's Israel that controls the United States.
	They seem to ignore literally every other military conflict, compromise, negotiation, and lobby in the world because they can't see straight.
	Make of it what you will.
	There's my addressing the game that is Nick Fuentes, and I will say it very simply as a final thought.
	The moment Jake said, I'll only come out with Nick Fuentes, I was like, there it is.
	He's playing games.
	Nick knows outright, he said it in this video, they won't have me on because they fear getting censored.
	He knows for a fact.
	So when he plays this game like, we would like to come on your show, it's like, well you already know what's going to happen.
	This is a foregone conclusion.
	The reason why I said it has to be a debate is that's the only format in which you don't get banned for having them on.
	That's it.
	They know that.
	And then they also knew nobody wanted to debate them.
	That's the game they're playing, because they're lying.
	Whatever, I'll leave it there.
	Next segment's coming up at 6pm on this channel.
	Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
	Andrea Ivanova, 26, says she has the world's biggest lips.
	Her lips are so big she can't even close her mouth.
	And it is horrifying.
	I feel bad for this woman.
	She is clearly suffering from some kind of psychological issue where she has an addiction to hurting herself.
	I want to stress this point, my friends.
	Do you know what pica is?
	Because I've mentioned it several times.
	I think it's a great example of psychological disorders, mental disorders.
	Pica is when someone eats things that are not food.
	There are people with a compulsion to eat hair.
	Some people eat pennies.
	You know, whatever.
	Don't.
	And there's this more well-known story about the one who ate her hair.
	Clumped up in her stomach creating a blockage and she had to get surgery to pull it out.
	And there are some people who instinctively peel their skin and eat their skin and just other horrifying things.
	This is no different.
	This woman has body dysmorphia and will never be satisfied.
	She will keep doing this.
	She has been warned by her doctors that if she does more she could die.
	She keeps doing it.
	She says, my doctor said it is very important to have filler in these areas, as if there is none, then over the years my face will look aged.
	She's saying now that after she got the world's biggest lips, she got nose filler to make her nose bigger on the sides to even things out.
	She had the soluble substance injected into either side of her nose to avoid looking aged to preserve her youthful face.
	There was a viral video of a woman asking her audience on Instagram, How old do they think she is?
	And they said 50!
	She was 26.
	Why?
	She got lip injections and fillers in her cheeks and in her nose and in her mouth.
	And so she looked like, you know, like, you know, like the weird scrunched face.
	Here's the thing.
	Typically, plastic surgery was getting done by women who were like 50 or some odd years old, late 40s.
	So when a young woman gets the same surgery and ends up looking like these other women, people assume she must be old.
	And she was shocked.
	This is what's happening.
	Selfie culture is driving people to get plastic surgery so they look like filtered photos.
	Social media is frying people's brains.
	America's teens are already planning to get plastic surgery.
	And they are.
	They're doing it.
	They're trying to look like filters.
	They're getting lip fillers, and I'm going to say this.
	You know, I try not to be too crass when I talk about this stuff.
	I try to be respectful sometimes.
	I'll call leftists cultists and things like that, but lip fillers are disgusting.
	100% in my view, I am repulsed by them.
	Uh, if I see a woman, anybody, with lip injections and cheek plants, it is repulsive to me.
	By all means, live your life.
	Do what you want to do.
	I got no beef, right?
	Uh, I also find makeup to be gross as well.
	It smells weird, and it's just, ugh.
unidentified		Blech.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There are certain women who understand a light touch with makeup goes unnoticed, but noticed, if you know what I mean.
		Guys won't notice you're wearing makeup if you do it just right, and that natural look tends to be better.
		At least maybe for my generation.
		But now what we're seeing with social media is that young women are getting their faces injected and plastered up, and they're starting to look like the Joker.
		Here's Newsweek.
		Teenagers are already planning for the plastic surgery procedures they want done, a new report from vitamin and supplement company Thorne found.
		When serving a group of 13 to 17 year olds, one in four say they plan to get cosmetic surgery to combat the appearance of aging.
		That is so weird.
		And surprisingly, boys are much more likely to let the fear of aging get to them.
		1 in 5, or 20% of boys, said they planned on cosmetic surgery compared to just 17% of girls.
		However, the number of teens planning a life with plastic surgery was far higher than the national average, which hovered just above 6%.
		This next generation is going to be reconfigured surgically.
		Transhumanism, baby.
		Psychology expert says the fixation on aging might come down to how that group uniquely grew up amid social media.
		Thanks to social media, they've been exposed to ever-changing and impossible-to-achieve beauty standards for quite some time.
		And far sooner than the generations before them, Thorne CEO Colin Watts told Newsweek.
		However, the data shows we are starting to see these standards are not just skin deep.
		The fear of aging is notably more distinct among young people who continue to see that society puts a premium on youth.
		Websites like Instagram and TikTok routinely feature filters and editing tools to create largely fake but convincing beauty standards.
		I think we are only scratching the surface when it comes to seeing all the layers of impact growing up in an era of social media that social media has on the brain and developing psyche.
		Licensed psychologist Lindsey Jernigan told Newsweek, In the age of social media, every moment is potentially public.
		We don't just look in the mirror and see ourselves.
		We imagine what hundreds of thousands of others might see.
		I think it comes down to parenting, to be completely honest.
		Let me tell you.
		I grew up on the internet.
		We did not have, when I first got the internet, I was very young.
		And I think it was a couple years old, actually.
		When my family had CompuServe on DOS, for everybody who knows what that means.
		And I remember Windows, the original Windows, I don't even remember, it was crazy.
		It was like you're just clicking boxes.
		And then Windows 3.1.
		That was wild.
		I remember when Windows 95 came out.
		We had AOL on Windows 3.1.
		You weren't really posting your photos.
		But by the time I was probably, I don't know, 13, 14, we started getting like LiveJournal, there was Hot or Not, which was like a weird thing.
		You post your photo and people say, hot or not?
		MySpace, Friendster, and all of a sudden we're posting photos.
		My profile photo for Friendster was me ollieing a skate trick over a gap.
		Like, you know, in the air, high in the air, how fun.
		That's what we heard about.
		It's pretty crazy to me.
		That, you know, even with that, I've never fallen into that place, but I guess we didn't have filters or whatever.
		I suppose, you know, maybe sports and notably skateboarding.
		I don't think skateboarding is the best for this, but I often talk about how if you were a skateboarder, one of the best life lessons is dropping in on a transition ramp.
		So, Google search this, how to drop in.
		There's no real way to just learn how to do it.
		You just gotta do it.
		And so, for a period of skating, I could go up and down these ramps.
		That's right, a transition is where it transitions from vertical to horizontal.
		One day, I was like, I have to be able to drop in.
		That's where you put your tail on the edge, and you just fall right into the ramp, and you ride away.
		I'd never done it before.
		And I'm like, just gotta do it.
		There's no sitting around.
		No one will help you.
		There's no cheating.
		It doesn't matter.
		And I fell.
		And I scraped my leg a little bit the first time.
		I got super excited, ran up, dropped right in.
		And I was like, I did it!
		There's no cheating.
	It's an accomplishment.
	I feel like those lessons that you get from a sport, be it martial arts or whatever, in that you have to just do your best and overcome yourself, helps you get past things like this.
	But the younger generation, and this is why I say I blame mostly the parents, They're not being given this lesson.
	They're being sent off to social media to just become filtered people.
	I like skateboarding a lot because there's no cheating.
	Oh, you can lie and say you did a trick, but sure, show me the footage.
	We film.
	Land the trick and film it and post it online, otherwise I don't believe you.
	So all you could really do was be your best, and you were that.
	But let me explain.
	If I claim that I can do a crazy trick, people are going to say, I don't know, where's the video?
	Show me the video.
	And it's happened.
	We call them posers.
	People would take a photo posing, and you could tell it was fake.
	You're posing, dude.
	You're posing on that ledge.
	That's not real.
	I think the original posing came from someone faking a nose blunt slide or something.
	I don't know a lot about it.
	The word poser was someone who posed for a trick.
	And that's what you were.
	So what does that mean for you?
	If you're out in the world and you want to be recognized as someone good and accomplished, you not only have to be able to do it, you gotta film it, too.
	You can talk big game all day and night, but people are just gonna be like, yeah, I don't know, whatever.
	Show me the footage.
	And if you couldn't, you couldn't.
	What does that mean?
	It means everyone saw you for who you really were, no matter what you wanted to do.
	You could try, you could fake it, but if you can't do the trick, you can't do the trick, and everyone knows.
	That's it.
	There's no makeup, there's no surgery, there's no faking it.
	You can try and lie, it doesn't work.
	That's the lesson I get from skateboarding.
	So ultimately, it's just, you are who you are.
	You have to be who you are.
	People will make fun of you, they'll attack you for it, but you know who you are, and you know what you can do, and you know what you can't do, and you know what you look like.
	These young kids, I think, many of them don't get this lesson, which needs to come from the parents and from real-world activities.
	But they live their lives on social media, so they want to be something else.
	They can pretend to be something else online, and who can say otherwise?
	This precipitates, in my opinion, a collapse.
	People are going, or actually, I shouldn't say collapse, but an artificial selection.
	Perhaps a natural selection created by our own behaviors.
	What's going to happen?
	The people who fake it, some of them will succeed, but mostly they won't.
	And the people who actually have the abilities, will make it.
	And they'll reproduce more.
	The end result is going to be, this world is, it's just gonna fail.
	The people who can't perform at high levels, the people who masquerade, will be exposed.
	There was a funny ad, where it was a beautiful man and woman, and their kids were all ugly.
	And it was something like, get plastic surgery.
	They're like, our plastic surgery is so good.
	And the idea was the woman got plastic surgery, and she was nasty looking, and the kids were all ugly.
	This poor woman, it was like a big scandal apparently, because she was like, she didn't have surgery, and she was just a model.
	But they implied in the magazine that she was actually super ugly, and got plastic surgery, and she didn't realize it.
	I think she sued, I can't remember the story.
	But we're going to end up seeing this reality where people are going to pretend and they're going to get surgeries, but you can tell when someone's gotten surgery.
	Hide it all you want.
	You can tell.
	Now, obviously this woman, you can tell she's gotten work done, not necessarily surgery.
	But everybody knows what lip fillers look like.
	There are women who don't like having thin lips, so they get injections into their lips, and then they just look like someone with fake lips.
	You don't look like someone who's naturally attractive, you look like a woman who got injections into her lips.
	People are gonna realize this.
	But you know what?
	Maybe some people are into it.
	All in all.
	Either humans begin to see through this, Reject the fake, and the more realistic, the natural, the successful, the meritous survive and reproduce.
	Or, we go transhumanist, and people get crazy surgeries and just try to look like whatever they want to look like, and then their kids will need surgeries as well.
	And they'll say, don't worry, the kid will be ugly, but they'll get surgery.
	I wonder.
	Or maybe the machine takes over.
	I'll leave it there.
	Next segment's coming up at 8 p.m.
