You don't want to miss it.
Now, let's get into the news.
Jury deliberations are expected to begin in the Donald Trump hush money trial, and we're in a bit of a news stasis period where everyone's waiting with bated breath to figure out exactly what's going to go on in this trial.
Now, of course, there has been what some are describing as veiled threats, or veiled threat, but it's obvious.
You had a guy from the New York Times basically say that if anyone of these jurors decides to give Trump a hung jury, they will be Steve Bartman on steroids, which is a funny reference.
For those that are not familiar, this is the guy who was long believed to have ruined the Cubs' chances at winning the World Series in 2003.
It's kind of a crazy story, but basically, this dude's life became a living hell because he tried to catch a foul ball, and Moises Alou was reaching for it, about to get it, and he blocked him.
And this was just some regular guy in the stands who had no idea what was going on.
That's the argument they're making.
If you do not convict Donald Trump, and you are the one holdout, they will come for you.
Now, we don't know what's gonna happen.
Everybody is murmuring.
The news industry is now just frozen.
And this is the funniest bit about it.
You've got commentary, you've got commentators, but you've basically got all of these writers just sitting there clutching their pens like nothing is happening.
That's why we're bringing you a special livestream this morning to go over exactly what's going on right now, but to potentially have any shocking updates should they come in.
I don't believe That while we're filming this live segment this morning, we're going to get a verdict from the jury.
Instructions are going in, and I believe at any moment the jury will begin their deliberations.
But what we're seeing from this is the sheer desperation of the Biden administration.
Threats against the jury, and I think there's a good probability Donald Trump does get convicted on this, and it's laid out perfectly in this veiled threat.
I don't believe it was intentionally a threat, but you can't go blasting that stuff out, because that's how people are going to take it.
You know where the lines are, and you know where not to step outside of.
Let's do this.
We're going to read the news here from NBC.
Jury deliberations set to begin in Donald Trump's criminal trial.

But let's read the news, and then I'll take superchats from all y'all who are watching live.
We have this.
Jury deliberations will begin Wednesday morning in New York prosecutor's case against Donald Trump.
the first criminal trial involving, I'm sorry, the first criminal trial involving the former president.
You, the jury, have the ability to hold the defendant accountable, prosecutor Joshua
Steinglass told the panel at the end of his four and a half hour closing argument Tuesday. Now,
what's really interesting here is that, and everybody already knows this is going on,
the prosecutors were allowed to say a whole bunch of crazy things and the judge wouldn't let any of,
he wouldn't overrule any of the moves that were, I'm sorry, he overruled all of the objections
made by the defense. So, So one of the issues was that the prosecution basically said it is campaign finance violation, but the judge would not allow the defense to bring an expert witness to testify that it wasn't.
Under the argument that, well, if I do that, I'm going to have to let them bring in their expert witness, and then everyone's arguing about what is or isn't a campaign finance violation.
So, no, we won't do that.
But the prosecution's allowed to say that it is a campaign finance violation, but the defense is not allowed to say that it's not.
Absolutely amazing.
You know, we had Kash Patel on, we recorded that show on Saturday, and we had him, so we aired it on Monday, the one with the president.
And he's explaining how he's in the courtroom, and the judge is yelling at a witness, and the witness was a former federal prosecutor just confused as to why the judge is yelling at him, because the whole thing's rigged.
Here we go.
The deliberations will start after State Judge Juan Marchand delivers his instructions to the 12-person jury on the laws it will need to consider as it decides this historic case.
His instruction is expected to take about an hour.
Manhattan DA attorney Alvin Bragg's office has charged Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records relating to a hush money payment his attorney Michael Cohen made to adult film star Stormy Daniels in the closing days of the 2016 election.
So let's go through all of that for those that aren't familiar with exactly what this case is.
So they claim that in 2016 Donald Trump paid Michael Cohen I'm sorry, 2016, Michael Cohen paid Stormy Daniels so that she would not report that she had had an affair with Trump some years prior.
And then Donald Trump in 2017, after getting elected, paid Cohen back because they had actually conspired to do this to unjustly affect the election.
And then, so, it was a felony, I'm sorry, it was a misdemeanor, and, beyond the statute of limitations, as they're bringing the case now, and they say it's a criminal conspiracy because Donald Trump was attempting to corruptly influence the election.
You have to bear with me, I'm having some streaming hiccups, so it's throwing me off a little bit, because I'm trying to make sure everything's working properly, but let's try that again.
Michael Cohen pays Stormy Daniels that claim.
Trump conspired with him so that it would help him win the election.
In 2017, after winning the election, he falsifies business records to try and conceal that crime.
Even if that was the case, even if it was the case that Trump did falsify business records personally, It's a misdemeanor.
It's beyond its statute of limitations now.
They're arguing it was to corruptly influence an election that he had already won, because it's the only way to bring the case now.
It's nonsense.
Not only that, but Trump truthed earlier that he has the defense of relying on counsel, that he's talking with lawyers and saying, you know, here you go, like, do your thing, and then paying his legal bills.
Well, let's read a little bit more.
They say, The DA's office was able to elevate the charge, typically a misdemeanor, to a felony by alleging the records were falsified with the intent to conceal another crime.
SignGlass suggested Trump was trying to cover up a number of crimes, including violations of state and federal election laws.
Trump attorney Todd Blanche told the jury, He argued the records weren't falsified because Trump wasn't reimbursing Cohen for the Daniels payment.
Instead, he was paying for general legal services because Cohen was Trump's personal lawyer at the time.
Steinglass called the account jaw-dropping, noting that Trump had previously publicly acknowledged having reimbursed Cohen.
Cohen was prosecutors' key witness, and Blanche told jurors he couldn't be trusted because of a history of lying.
He's literally the MVP of liars.
Steinglass acknowledged that Cohen had a history of lying, but said he'd often done so to protect Trump.
Trump's attorneys were trying to use those lies to undermine his credibility, is what some people might call chutzpah, Steinglass said.
The trial began with jury selection April 15th, blah blah blah.
Trump faces four years in prison.
I do not believe Trump will get any prison time in the event he actually does get convicted.
What is most likely, in my opinion, to happen?
Ankle bracelet, home confinement, Trump Tower.
Some people have suggested maybe he'll go to Mar-a-Lago.
I do not believe they would allow him to leave the state.
They'll say, you've got a residence here, we're locking you in Trump Tower, no campaigning, you're done.
Here we go.
We got a bunch more.
This is from Jonathan Turley.
This is from last night, and there's a few things that I think are important here that we'll read in the closing arguments.
He says, Steinglass is continuing to instruct the jury and was again stopped by the court.
Steinglass just reminded them that they can find the New York election law violation
with any of the three claimed crimes and they do not have to even agree on which. I love this part.
So four can find a state election violation, four can find a federal election violation,
and four can find tax violations and it will still be treated as unanimous verdict.
So if they all disagree on what crime they think happened, they will convict Trump anyway.
Let me clarify this for you guys.
This is the prosecution saying, you might not think Trump committed a crime here.
Like, I don't even know where to begin with this.
So, a guy's accused of jaywalking, stealing a pack of gum, and assaulting a guy.
It doesn't matter which one he actually did.
It's unanimous if you think a crime was committed, period.
It's supposed to be beyond a reasonable doubt.
You're supposed to be able to sit down and say, we all agree that a crime was committed beyond a reasonable doubt.
They are quite literally saying, this is absolutely incredible, my friends.
They are saying that if you all disagree on the crime that was committed, who cares?
We'll just say he committed a crime anyway.
You all agree a crime was committed?
You know, it's not exactly what I thought was going to happen, but it's close enough.
My thought process was, in the closing arguments, the prosecution is going to say something to the effect of, you know what Trump has done.
Think about everything you have heard about this man in the courtroom.
And think about every single time you heard that he committed a crime and harmed and wronged this country in the courtroom.

Now they're saying you don't even have to agree on what the crime was.
Just if you think there was a crime, say he's guilty.
It's absolutely insane.
Steinglass said Trump got his trial and the law is the law and there is no special standard.
Yeah, there clearly is here.
That's a wrap.
So this morning, Jonathan Turley back in the courtroom says the judge stated he wants to
stay close to the standard instructions.
The problem is that the case is anything but standard.
We'll be looking for some of the outstanding issues, particularly on the standard of proof for key elements like unlawful means.
Yesterday was chilling, as the judge allowed the prosecutors to engage in what some of us view as highly improper arguments.
That included effectively testifying on facts not in the record.
Mershon's view of argument was considerably broader for the prosecution than the defense.
For the prosecutors making objections, the strike zone seemed like it stretched from dugout to dugout.
For the defense, it seemed the size of a postage stamp.
I tell you, my friends, I want to reiterate that point from the closing arguments.
This is one of the most significant in this case that breaks down the corruption and evil that we are facing and understand where our country currently is.
By all means, you can laugh and say, ha ha ha ha, Tim thinks civil war is possible.
I don't know exactly how that manifests or what could happen.
I can tell you this, when they are outright saying to the jury, even if there is no unanimous verdict on the crime committed, so long as any of you can agree that there was some kind of crime in any area, it's a unanimous verdict on these charges!
This man is accused of jaywalking.
If you don't agree he jaywalked, if you think he might have stolen a dollar, stolen a pack of gum, or pushed a guy, that's good enough for us.
Say he's guilty of a crime.
Amazing.
Now, now, I will clarify.
What they're claiming is, because this crime is an underlying crime, which is requiring a secondary crime, they said, by all means, make up the secondary crime, so long as it fits this misdemeanor case, which is beyond the statute of limitations, will be held against Trump.
Absolutely insane.
No.
Where does this country go?
Kash Patel told us, with a show we aired on Monday, if Donald Trump goes to jail, he wins overnight.
And I kind of agree.
When Fareed Zakaria of CNN says this case would not be brought against anyone whose name was not Donald Trump, that's CNN.
They hate the guy!
Yet here we are.
If they really, in their sheer panic and desperation, try to lock Trump up, it will backfire in their face so massively.
But I don't know what this means for this country.
I've got to say it.
Forgive me, everybody.
Forgive me.
Because I know it's going to be the fourth time I say it, but I need you to understand what Jonathan Turley is saying.
That the jury is allowed, as per the closing arguments, to not be unanimous on a crime committed by Trump, but that they will determine it so anyway.
So four jurors are like, well, you know, we don't think he actually... What they're basically saying is, so long as a law exists on the books, That is tied to secondary crimes, they will charge you, and any crime you have ever committed warrants the first crime to be unanimous.
It's insanity.
Now as for those threats, oh boy, I hope you're ready for this one.
Byron York, quote tweeting Kenneth Vogel of the New York Times, Vogel said, if Trump gets a hung jury, a typo, Uh, I hung jury mistrial because of one juror.
Resistance Twitter is going to turn that person into Steve Bartman on steroids.
Now, he edited that tweet and changed it.
I think he realized what he had just said publicly.
And that is, ah, Steve Bartman.
Ladies and gentlemen, Steve Bartman.
I remember this like it was yesterday, despite the fact it was 21 years ago.
I was hanging out in my living room.
On the south side of Chicago, we were all losing our minds because the Cubs were inching towards a World Series win.
This was a League pennant win.
So it wasn't the World Series just yet, but it was getting them to it.
And Steve Bartman was sitting near the field, and there was a fly ball.
Moises Alou ran to jump and catch the ball, and Steve Bartman fumbled with it, trying to catch it himself, thinking it's a foul ball and it's going to be mine, blocking Moises from catching it, which would have given them their second out.
I believe it would have been their second out.
If they were leading 3-0, it would have put them four outs away from winning.
And after that, holy crap.
When that happened, it was like instant demoralization, and the Cubs let eight runs in.
This dude, Steve Bartman, was just some guy who tried to catch a fly ball.
He had no idea what was going on.
His life became a living hell for years after this.
There's the infamous photo.
Man, do you guys remember this stuff?
They're saying that any juror who does not convict Trump will live like this guy.
Yo, people were, like, this guy was getting death threats.
It was crazy.
The Cubs hadn't won a World Series.
They hadn't won a league pennant since 1945.
And everyone blamed him.
Not because it was truly his fault.
I mean, the Cubs let eight runs in.
But because he basically centralized all of that anger of defeat right onto himself.
And it was brutal for him.
Apparently he was, I mean, the aftermath was, people started, look at this, they say Bartman was not widely recognized until afterwards.
He started getting calls on his cell phones, on his phone, because they watched it on TV.
And he had to be escorted away with security.
Cubs fans had insults and threats.
Some were death threats.
One fan dumped a cup of beer on him.
Security escorted Bartman and two people accompanied him towards the exit tunnel.
News footage from the game showed him surrounded by security as fans pelted him with drinks and other debris.
Bartman's name as well as personal information appeared on Major League Baseball's message boards minutes after the game ended.
They doxed the guy.
Six police cars gathered outside his home in Northbrook, Illinois to protect him and his family.
Afterwards, then-Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich suggested that Bartman join a witness protection program, while then-Florida Governor Jeb Bush offered Bartman asylum.
And you think it's funny.
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, asylum and witness protection.
They ain't kidding.
There's probably some jest in there being like, maybe he needs to join witness protection.
But people were actually threatening to kill the guy.
That's what Vogel just said.
If Trump gets his hung jury now.
The context matters.
Because a lot of people are saying Vogel was threatening the jury.
I think this matters a lot.
The bulwark Trump legal team pins hopes on a hung jury.
The article that he linked is basically about a juror who looked at Trump.
Not kidding.
Apparently, there was a jury member who looked at Trump and they think that signifies he may be the lone hung juror who blocks this conviction and gives Trump a mistrial.
If Trump gets a mistrial, you know what they're going to do?
They're going to bring the case right back.
They're going to say, let's go again, baby!
Let's stop Trump from being able to campaign.
They will be relentless.
This is an insane political tactic.
Why would they stop now?
You know, many people are saying that it is patently absurd that they would try such a technique against Donald Trump.
Yeah, I agree.
It's looking like it's backfiring miserably and it's helping Donald Trump.
Why keep going?
They've got nothing.
That's it.
They've got nothing.
Biden is Skeletor.
That's not fair.
Skeletor was strong.
He's some kind of lich monster.
Frail and fumbling and bumbling.
He's given us such classics like Trinidad Shabba Da Pressure, Batacaf Care, Next Nalrescent, and Pac-A-Lack-Lack, Pac-A-Lack-Lack, whatever that was, like the Mars Attacks guy.
Those were things Biden has said.
I don't see how this guy wins.
Immigration's a major issue.
The Libertarians just put in a progressive leftist as their candidate.
That's gonna siphon more votes away from Biden.
So they're probably thinking, well, putting Trump in jail may not be working.
It may be helping him win.
But maybe, maybe, if they put him in jail, they can make it impossible for him to win in some way.
I don't know.
Maybe something happens to him.
I have no idea.
So, if there's a mistrial, someone's chatted double jeopardy.
If there's a mistrial, it's not double jeopardy.
Mistrials often will get retried.
They'll say, we have a hung jury, we have a mistrial, so we'll hold the trial again.
However, in some instances, the judge could just dismiss the case with prejudice, meaning it cannot be brought back, and then you would have double jeopardy.
In this instance, if we get a hung jury, I do not see why they would just abandon this.
These people are relentless and desperate You know, and I warned this over the past couple years.
The death throes.
The death throes, and this is when, in desperation, an individual begins thrashing around violently.
A person who is drowning.
Splashes violently.
That's why they say if you are going to rescue someone who is drowning, you have to be very careful.
You need to approach them from behind and grab them because they will push you down and drown you both in panic.
Hey guys, Josh Hammer here, the host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer, a podcast for the First Podcast Network.
Look, there are a lot of shows out there that are explaining the political news cycle, what's happening on the Hill, the this, the that.
There are no other shows that are cutting straight to the point when it comes to the unprecedented lawfare debilitating Maybe that bolsters his polls massively.
But I just gotta say, I mean, maybe there's a special desperation.
We do all that every single day right here on America on Trial with Josh Hammer.
Subscribe and download your episodes wherever you get your podcasts.
But I just gotta say, I mean, maybe there's a special desperation.
But I wouldn't underestimate the political rivals here.
I wouldn't underestimate it.
Some kind of shadow campaign?
In fact, this could be a distraction.
Who knows?
Waste all of our time.
You know what would really surprise me?
If they unanimously return a not guilty verdict.
The crisis here for Democrats is that if the jury unanimously says not guilty, Trump's approval rating will skyrocket.
Biden's will tank.
The jury coming out and saying, this is nonsense.
I don't see that happening.
It's getting wild out here, man.
It's a special day.
That's why we're doing this live.
Because, well, to be honest, we're waiting for these jury deliberations.
So what we'll do now, my friends, as we're at the 23-minute mark, we'll grab some Super Chats from all of you.
And maybe we'll throw in a bonus segment on top of this one and crank out some segments, but I'll do this.
We're going to start our poll as we like to do.
One like equals one FJB.
I wonder if YouTube gets mad that I do that.
Well, smash the like button, become a member at TimCast.com, pick up Ian's Graphene Dream Low Acidity Coffee at CasperU.com.
You know what I was thinking of doing is, and I'd love to do this, would be to do a morning live show, and we tried this before, it didn't really work out, that's the problem.
The idea was to do a morning live show and then pull segments from it like we do with Timcast IRL.
Unfortunately, it didn't work.
What ended up happening is we did a long morning live show and then the viewer counts for the... So, if I record the morning show in segments, Do like 22 minutes, 22 minutes, 10 to 20, 10 to 20.
Then each of those gets 100 to 200k, sometimes more.
Yesterday we got 400,000 on the first morning segment.
And that's huge.
And that, you know, you get a boost in the algorithm, you get more likes, you get more revenue.
And so what we tried doing was, what if we do a morning show that's an hour and a half long and then pull the segments out like we do with IRL and upload those later in the day?
Nobody watched them.
So it ended up spiking us in the algorithm, lowering the view totals, and it was just ultimately bad in the long run.
Unless there was some way to do a live show that could pick that up.
I don't know exactly how to do it, but that'd be beneficial because then we could do morning producer, five stories, we'd get more segments out, we'd wrap the day an hour earlier than I normally do, or like two hours normally.
Could probably do a longer morning show, but it did not work.
It did not work out.
But we'll grab your Super Chats, because we're doing the special morning live, and Mute Barbecue says, Tim Pool is the hardest working man in journalism.
You know, makes me jealous sometimes.
I look at some of these other channels, and they'll, like, people who do substantially less work get substantially more views, and it's tough.
It's like, man.
I do feel like I have to grind ten times harder to be able to maintain this level compared to many others, but that's just the way it is sometimes.
Life is not fair.
Perhaps if I was just hardcore right or left wing, then you'd capture the larger market shares, but well, it is what it is.
But yeah, morning show and night show is particularly rough.
When I wasn't doing TimCast IRL, I'd finish, because I was doing six segments, TimCast and TimCast News, by 4 p.m., I had the rest of the day off, like every other normal human being, and then I'd be like, let's go see a movie, let's go grab dinner somewhere, let's go hang out, play video games.
Now it doesn't exist.
Now it's morning show, exercise, dinner, nightly show, Monday through Friday, forever.
But I appreciate your superchats, I appreciate your support.
Ryan asks, how hard is the right going to beat the breaks off the left in a civil war?
And can we nuke the liberal cities?
No, you can't.
And I will tell you, look, the conservatives who think that, haha, we're going to win a civil war, ah, dude, it depends on who China supports.
I'm not kidding.
China is going to enter the war like in all wars and all conflicts foreign
interference will get involved and that's all that matters. I do have already another segment
prepared and this is far leftists calling for civil war and threatening armed revolution. Yep.
That's where we're at.
Threatening armed revolution.
So they're claiming they want to buy more guns.
And so this is what I was talking about with doing the longer morning show.
So for everybody who ends up watching the full morning show, what happens is, I would normally get $200,000 on a segment because no one's seen it.
The 75,000 that watch the full morning show, like let's say I get like 200,000 on the full morning show, that means that one viewer counts for all of the segments.
So if we break the show up into segments, then one viewer will appear on each segment, and then it'll be four views for the channels out of one view, and that really does matter, breaking it up that way.
Alright.
Bamchu says, I'm a carpet cleaner and I've had two old ladies this week bring up the Dr. Phil Andy Ngo interview.
People are waking up.
Incredible interview, by the way, for those that haven't seen it.
Andy Ngo breaking down the threat of the far left.
Gone Fall says, I'm ready any time to be your guitarist, Tim Blackpill.
No, no, we, we, I think the idea of the Blackpill lacks moral and philosophical clarity.
There are dark periods throughout life, but they're never sustained.
It's ebbs and flows, my friends.
So even on the darkest of days, there is something good that comes eventually.
Strassau Generational Theory, good times, hard men, blah blah blah, you get the point.
Good times, strong men, hard times, weak men, whatever.
Totally backwards, but I'm just referencing it, you get my point.
Let's see, The Matrix has me says, it's all an effing joke.
The Comedian.
Mocking this process is the best choice.
Also, any improvements coming to the Android Timcast app, would love to see some of those bugs fixed.
We gotta get on it!
We are, uh, man.
You know, I get people coming being like, uh, how would you like investment?
And if we had investment, we could probably then bring on, like, some high-class corporate guy.
I'd be willing to bet that if we went the Daily Wire route, brought in some, you know, like a, like an actual CEO guy, paid him a bunch of money, brought in some investors, we'd probably grow massively and then fund theoretically begin to rival
the daily wire were different market is an overlap of course
but uh...
are arm overlap is probably like sixty to seventy percent and there's like a bit
of overlap that's not there arms as a bit of market is not there
uh... and that's why the daily wife course one of the work of the one who
expand market share but um...
i just don't see it in the cards I don't see it in the cards.
I, you know, I think Daily Wire's cranking in like $250 million per year, some ridiculous number.
And, uh, I don't know.
Probably not for me.
Not for me.
Joseph Laliberte says, just wanted to say my first child was born yesterday at 4.19am.
He couldn't wait one minute.
How dare you, good sir, how dare you vote Trump?
Congratulations!
Congratulations.
We'll grab a couple more here.
We're reaching the 30-minute mark.
Jason Dixon says, Tim, can you please promote the Discord?
We are doing great things in the Discord.
Ladies and gentlemen, what is our mission?
Win a culture war.
We believe in meritocracy, personal freedoms, individual liberty, the power of the nuclear family.
These things are considered to be largely conservative, but it's nuts because growing up they were normal in a liberal household, but the left has gone insane.
So we want to make sure we have a stable, functioning environment.
That means hard work comes along with all of the joys, but we have to have a balance of short-term and long-term satisfaction.
The left seems hell-bent on only short-term.
How do we win?
Well, building culture isn't the only way.
You need to build community.
So over at casprew.com, we sell coffee.
Why?
We've actually been working to set up this coffee shop FOREVER.
It's like, we're almost, we're a year and a half of trying to get it going.
It's, uh, it is frustrating.
But, uh, we're past the permitting phase, the drawing phase, and a bunch of work is getting done, finally.
The difficulty we were having was with contractors who would start and then stop and then start and then stop, and it's a nightmare.
But, uh, still a lot of work has to be done.
And the goal with selling coffee is it's the cheapest point of entry for physical locations where people can hang out, have a cup of coffee, talk about things.
When you meet your neighbors, you guys network, you might be like, hey man, I'm really good at swinging baseball bats.
And the other guy's like, I'm really good at throwing baseballs.
And you're like, dude, you can throw the baseball.
I can hit it.
I'm kidding with that analogy.
My point is complementary skill sets.
You meet someone who's a great artist and you're a great writer and you're like, what if we teamed up and made a cool comic book?
There has to be a way that people can organize and they have to know each other and network.
In the meantime, while we await our physical location, you can go to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, and join the Discord server, where there's a bunch of different chat rooms, people are collaborating, there's morning shows, there's after shows, people are making friends, people are meeting up, people are finding relationships.
That's true.
Because that's what networking is!
This world we are looking at right now, what's happening?
People are breaking apart.
It's becoming the Matrix.
No one's going out to the mom and pop shop anymore.
They're sitting at home all day.
There's a chart talking about people saying, hey, sugar intake is stable, but obesity is skyrocketing.
And they're like, it must be our food poisoning us.
It's got chemicals in it.
No, it's the Internet.
We used to have to walk to the store.
Now we pull up a nap in DoorDash.
We used to have to walk to our friend's house.
Now we just put on our headphones and play video games online.
We used to have to walk to the train, get off the train, walk to our office.
Now it's remote working.
We are burning less calories.
We need to reverse that trend.
We, as humans, must resist the Matrix by making sure we move physically and talk with each other, lest we find ourselves living in the pods and eating the bugs.
It just so happens that when you join the Discord server, that's the function of supporting all the work that we do at TimCast.
So, TimCast.com, click join us.
So I'll wrap it up there, though, and I do have, of course, a bunch more segments coming up.
We'll talk about, on the left, calling for Armed Revolution.
Yeah.
But that'll be coming up.
The next segment will be at 1 p.m.
Maybe we'll have some updates on the verdict.
What I like to do is, I usually like to have the 10 a.m.
and 1 p.m.
segments be big stories of the day.
10 a.m.
is like, here's the big hit this morning.
1 p.m.
is here's our developments.
And then 4 and 6 p.m., the other segments we do, are usually more social and more culture war-y, right?
Less important.
So that's why, uh, you know, like yesterday we did the AI segment because we want to mix things up a little bit.
But, uh, we'll wrap it up there.
Smash the like button, subscribe to the channel.
Thank you all for your support.
We are going to be back at 1pm on this channel.
And, uh, I don't know, maybe I'll do another livestream or something at some point.
And then, of course, we always are back for TimCast IRL.
Thanks, guys, so much for hanging out.
And, uh, we will see you all at 1pm.
Far leftists, and actually just like weirdo Democrats, are threatening civil war.
If Donald Trump is elected, they've graduated from, I will abandon this country outright, and have moved on to, it is time to buy weapons because the Second Amendment guarantees us this right.
Now the funny thing is, these people are posting on Reddit, That they're going to be put in camps.
And I'm just like, are you illegal immigrants in this country in violation of our law being in fear that you'll get arrested?
Because I can't literally understand why any one of these leftists think in any way they're going to end up in a camp considering Donald Trump would not even invoke the Insurrection Act to stop the Summer of Love riots.
But of course, these people live in Crackpot Wally World, so they believe garbage nonsense.
Reddit Lies says, this is at Reddit underscore Lies on Twitter, Redditors are now discussing an armed rebellion if Trump is elected.
Yeah, right.
This is what the Second Amendment was for.
When we're all in camps, it's going to be a little too late.
Well, here we go.
Here's the post from Reddit.
in the US start fighting back. Let's assume the theocratic fascists get their wet... it's from r
slash atheism by the way. Let's assume the theocratic fascists get their wet dream and
Trump gets elected and the republicans get the house and senate. They get to enact every part
of project 2025 that they want no resistance.
When do we start fighting back?
I'm not trying to be a doomer, but when we're all in camps, it's going to be a little too late.
We have to try and do something.
Y'all are nuts, okay?
Matt Walsh jokingly calls himself a theocratic fascist.
Yeah, you are not going to live in their world.
These people, I'm sorry, conservatives, Christians, y'all are pushovers.
That's just the reality.
These people are crackpot lunatics.
Christians are so tolerant, they let evil people into their institutions.
Oh, I'm so afraid.
Now we're desperately trying to push the evil out.
And I gotta tell you, it's only after... My friends, listen, please.
It is only after the far left goes insane that moderate left-leaning individuals joining the ranks of the right resulted in some active pushback.
Oh, by all means.
You had Christian conservatives pushing back, being angry about it, but not being particularly effective.
And now that post-liberals, people who, like, used to be in these protests, are joining the right because the left is nuts, now the right is gaining ground.
What I mean to say is, Christians are too good of people.
I mean it.
I mean it.
The Christian sees the wayward soul who says, please, please, I just need help.
And what does the Christian do?
They promote this lie that Christians are angry and bigoted and mean.
No!
The Christians opened up their doors to these people, tolerated them.
They say, let's be nice to them.
Yes, please, we don't want to fight.
We want to be good neighbors.
And they allowed degeneracy into their ranks, infecting their institutions.
And this country, that was once predominantly Christian, is now... Christianity is on the decline.
In some ways, it's coming back.
Don't get me wrong.
My point is, these are not wartime Christians.
They are peace-loving, good-neighbor Christians who try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt.
And look what this has resulted in.
With all of that being said, the far left is acting like these good Christians who are trying to be good neighbors, much to their own detriment, are the fascists?
Now I know, many Christians may take offense to this, but guys, I'm sorry, it's true.
Christians saw these bad people move in and thought, we'll just be nice and maybe we can save them.
I will knock on their door and ask them if they understand.
And what do you get?
Jack Posobiec goes out.
Antifa gets in his face and screams at him.
He's not even saying anything to anybody.
He goes to D.C.
and these far left are tearing down statues, firebombing things.
And the Christians, for too long, tolerated this.
Now they're starting to realize what's going on.
And I still don't believe it will ever result in anyone going into a camp.
Well, here we go.
We need more- Here we go.
You want the uncomfortable answer?
This is what the Second Amendment was for, is what we can do about it.
Become a member at simcast.com to support our work, and pick up Ian's Graphene Dream at castbrew.com.
I'm trying to do more shout-outs because, you know, this will probably help the business if I do.
So, hey, Ian's Graphene Dream.
New coffee, now available.
But, uh, let's jump to this next one.
Reddit Lies has another one for us.
Redditors discuss what they would do if Trump gets elected.
Oh, boy!
I wonder what it is!
This one asked, if Trump wins, are you actually moving?
Where?
One person said, Phoebe's grandmother posts, I'd rather stay and fight.
There's no way I'm letting these people have this place to themselves.
Fun Economy says, I'm 70 and me too can still write, think and speak.
I'm old too.
And if Hitler Pig was elected and turned out to be as bad as we expect, and I get a terminal diagnosis at some point, I could be a very dangerous person.
At that point, I would have nothing to lose, so I might as well do something corrective.
This next guy says, For legal reasons I don't condone this, and I'm also not sure if it would make things much worse anyway, but part of me always wonders how in a country of 300 plus million people, there weren't at least a few people like that who tried to do it.
Yeah, I actually agree with that last one.
Violence is wrong.
Violence is the language of the desperate and the wrong.
Far leftists like Antifa, they go out smashing things up because they know that they have no real argument.
They're wrong.
So only by force.
Now self-defense is not the same as initiating violence.
This is what people need to understand.
My friends.
My friends.
There are people who post these memes saying, the founding fathers would have been stacking bodies by now.
No!
No, no, no, no, no.
Man, I love the Founding Fathers' history of the American Revolution.
Homies be like, well, the regulars have shot us again, let's send another strongly worded letter.
They didn't really talk like that, mind you, because erotic English was actually the standard until the British changed it, but...
So the colonists actually talked more like we do now, with minor differences, but for the most part, yeah, it's rhotic English.
That means we say our R's like car and there, and in the UK they say there and car.
They're trying to sound smart, I guess.
Don't know why that happened.
Anyway, I digress.
The Founding Fathers, a year and one month after the start of the American Revolutionary War, finally said, okay, we're declaring independence.
The war was already going on.
Absolutely incredible.
Lexington and Concord, the shot heard round the world, was a year and one month before the Declaration of Independence.
So when people are like, the Founding Fathers have been stacking bodies by now, let me know when you're a year into active conflict with military, and then you can talk to me about what the Founding Fathers would have been doing.
Then when you say that, I'd be like, oh, fair point.
They did wait a year, being shot at, before they finally declared independence.
But I guess, to be fair, the point is, when the regulars came in with guns, it, you know, the funny thing is, it wasn't the Founding Fathers.
It's a bunch of farmers!
So, you get Massachusetts, and they basically say, you get the Boston Tea Party, we don't, you know, the taxes are bad.
And then the Crown is like, you must pay restitution!
And it was called the Intolerable X. And then outside of Boston, they're like, you have no control over us.
You can't do anything.
So they said, we're going to come take all your guns away.
And Boston, they were like, okay, I guess.
And then the farmers were like, yeah, good luck.
And then the regulars tried marching on them.
Military was dispatched, armed, and ready to kill.
They say, we don't know who fired the first shot, but the shot was fired.
And I believe it mostly resulted in... I believe both sides took casualties, but it was mostly the farmers.
Call them patriots, whatever.
It was just regular guys.
Farmers.
And they say that was the start of the Revolutionary War.
The Founding Fathers were like, I don't know, man.
You know, I don't want to be involved in this.
Like, we do not want war.
So what did they do?
They wrote a strongly worded letter to the Crown.
That's what they did.
Strongly worded letter.
And a year and one month later, they finally wrote another letter saying, Y'all keep doing this so we are calling ourselves an independent nation.
We've organized against you.
That's wild.
They tried so hard not to fight.
Watch the movie The Patriot with Mel Gibson, one of the greatest movies of all time.
And Mel Gibson's character is just like, should we have independence from the crown?
Yes, the right to govern ourselves, absolutely agree.
But if you're talking about war with Britain, I say no!
And then he says, your children will learn of this battle with their own eyes.
It will not be fought on some distant battlefield.
It will be here in front of your homes, in front of your children.
They did.
And I know it's fiction, but I'm saying, they didn't want to fight.
These people are crackpots, okay?
We don't want to fight.
You don't want to live in that world.
You want to live in the world where you wake up and have cold pizza for breakfast on the weekend because you were partying with your friends the night before.
You want to wake up in the world where the fresh smell of coffee and pancakes as your significant other, be it your wife or husband, has decided to make breakfast for the family on that beautiful weekend morning.
And on Sunday you walk into church and everyone's smiling and shaking hands.
And for those who don't go to church, Sunday morning you wake up, you go to the coffee shop, and there's old crazy Bill pouring orange juice in his oatmeal again.
What you don't want to live in is a world where you walk outside to rubble and debris, and when you hear a gunshot, you hit the deck, and you don't know who's shooting and from where.
That's not a world you want to live in.
Oh, great.
Phoebe's grandmother is back, saying, First, we try all legal means.
But if Trump wins, legal may lose its meaning.
And if that happens, I mean to fight in the literal sense.
And if that happens, I think there will be a lot of very surprised and overwhelmed MAGA terrorists that convince themselves leftists can't fight.
We get Bato responding, saying, I mean, it wouldn't be so difficult.
Just take out anything with a red cap wearing a sympathy diaper.
And there are people who think civil conflict cannot happen.
They say, oh, oh, Crackpot Tim Pool's a crazy man!
Dancing around in the West with this tumbleweed, blowing around, screaming, thinking that civil wars are coming.
I don't know, you tell me, man.
I don't know what's coming.
I'm telling you this.
You get yourself some chickens, maybe a miniature cow, get out of the city, breathe some fresh air, Eat some fresh berries that are safe and not poisonous, mind you.
So you gotta learn, you gotta figure it out.
And sit in the back porch in a rocking chair as the chickens walk around buckin' and peckin' and it'll put a smile on your face.
Let's say that conflict does come.
You'll hear about the conflict in the distant land as you live off in the rural area a few hours drive away.
Not the safest, but decently far enough to where you've secured your property.
You're in a place like West Virginia with constitutional carry so you are armed and secure in your property.
You know, pending any kind of actual military effort against your land.
But you'll be sitting there, you'll hear on the news the bad things happening, and you'll think, you know, I got chickens, they lay eggs every day.
We got a bunch of them.
Sometimes we eat them.
They just happen to make more of themselves.
It's fun.
You eat them in the winter, it keeps you alive.
You got a little mini cow, maybe you get some goats, you get a garden going.
And in today's day and age, you can actually get a really easy greenhouse.
They sell them, they're actually miniature greenhouses, pretty cheap.
You got to heat them up so you'll need power, but you could do that easily with modern technology.
Here's what I'm saying.
In the event the worst happens and people actually begin fighting, you're going to want to be self-sufficient to a certain degree.
You're going to need supplies, you're going to need knowledge.
I recommend you get that knowledge in those supplies.
I suppose the challenge right now is, for a lot of people, they ain't doing none of that.
And so, uh, man, I tell you.
Worst case scenario for a lot of people is going to be waking up to a conflict they cannot survive.
Best of luck, my friends!
I hope we do not ever enter that.
I hope that Trump wins, these people who are screaming civil war stop, and then we just get some accountability.
Next segment's coming up at 6pm on this channel.
Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
The judge has given the instructions to the jury.
They have begun deliberating.
And in the instructions, the judge has rigged the trial against Donald Trump.
The judge actually instructed the jury that they do not need to be unanimous in their decision as to the crime Trump committed in order to convict him of falsifying business records.
I can't believe it.
In this morning's special live segment, We talked about how, in the closing arguments, the prosecution said, you don't need to agree that Trump committed the same crime.
You can all disagree on the crime he committed so long as you all agree he did commit a crime.
What does that mean?
Well, it means that the jury could go back behind the scenes and say, I don't think Trump committed any kind of campaign violation.
Another juror can say, I don't think he committed a tax violation.
The other individual can say, I don't think he committed any of these violations, I think he was jaywalking.
Or something.
They said, each of the jurors could disagree on the crime they think Trump may or may not have committed, but so long as they all agree a crime was committed, Trump is guilty.
The judge gave instructions saying exactly that.
What does that mean?
Welcome to the Nightmare Dystopia, my friends.
The state of New York is now saying if they decide to bring a crime that has any kind of underlying attachment, the jury need not actually agree that you committed any of these crimes so long as they agree a crime in general was committed somewhere.
That's right.
Donald Trump will be convicted in one criminal court case of different crimes of varying issue, so long as they agree with Trump at some point.
I can't believe it.
Now, I've been saying for some time now, what I thought would happen is the prosecution would come out and tell the jury, think about everything you've heard about Donald Trump in this trial and everything you know Donald Trump did.
The point being that they would convince the jury to convict Trump not on this case, but on literally anything.
Just lock him up!
I didn't realize the judge would actually give those exact instructions, saying outright, you do not have to be unanimous on the crime Trump committed.
Now normally it would be like this.
Let's say a guy is accused of committing fraud, and then reckless endangerment with a vehicle, followed by intentional homicide, right?
So it's a guy who defrauds a person.
And then a guy and his wife are defrauded, and he's getting in his car to leave, and they chase after him.
So he speeds, full speed, swerving in and out of cars, and then crashes.
They jump out, he turns around, pulls out a gun, and opens fire, killing one of the guys.
You've got to convict the guy in each of these crimes.
You've got to say, we agree the evidence shows he committed fraud.
We agree the evidence shows that he was a reckless endangerment driving his vehicle.
We agree the evidence shows that he turned around, he committed murder.
What they're saying now is it doesn't matter on any of these counts of tax fraud, campaigns, finance violations or otherwise.
So long as you agree Trump at some point committed a crime related to his business filings, lock him up.
I can't believe it.
Newsweek says Trump acquittal now unlikely from a prosecutor.
Yeah.
Yeah, because the judge said, uh, you don't have to be unanimous.
I've got the jury instructions here.
We've got new updates.
It's all coming in in real time.
Trump is smiling in court.
Mershawn directs parties to remain close.
You cannot leave the building.
Trump is not allowed to leave.
Jury deliberations have begun.

Nick Sorter says, Judge Mershon has told the jury they do not need unanimity to convict.
This means four jurors could agree on the first crime, falsifying records.
Four on the second, tax violations.
Four on the third, federal elections violations.
Federal election vi- yep.
And Mershon would still count that as a unanimous guilty verdict from the 12-member jury.
The fix is in.
Ladies and gentlemen, the judge has rigged this against Trump.
I don't know where we go from here, my friends.
Jonathan Turley.
He's got the breakdown.
Let's read it.
He says, the judge is giving instructions.
He stated that he wants to stay close to the standard instructions.
The problem is, in this case, anything but standard.
Yesterday was chilling, as the judge allowed prosecutors to engage in what some view as highly inappropriate arguments.
We read this in the earlier morning segment.
Marciana's telling them they can only consider Cohen's plea to a federal election violation I'm sorry, Mershan is telling them that they can only consider Cohen's plea to a federal election violation was only allowed to judge his credibility and offer context.
That is mere meek after the prosecutors have repeatedly said that such violations were committed as an indisputable fact and that Trump ordered them to be committed.
Judge Mershan said that if they find any witness has testified with regard to any material fact, they can disregard it.
Mershan has instructed, the first count of falsifying business records in the first
degree must show that Trump made or causes a false entry to be
Intent does not require an intent to defraud any particular person or entry,
but a general intent to defraud.
And then he says, Mershan has just delivered the coup de grace instruction.
He said that there is no need to agree on what occurred.
They can disagree on what the crime was among the three choices.
Thus, this means they could split 4-4-4 and he will still treat them as unanimous.
Mershon just noted if the money would have been paid regardless of the campaign it is not a contribution.
There it is.
I can't believe that we're here.
I mean, I can believe it, I gotta be honest, I can believe it.
The fix is in.
Did y'all think anything else was gonna happen?
We thought you'd get a hung jury.
The judges made it clear.
They're gonna go back to their deliberations.
And someone's gonna be like, I don't think Trump committed these crimes.
And they're gonna say, did he falsify the business records?
And they're gonna be like, I mean, the prosecutor said he did.
The prosecutor said it was a statement of fact.
That Donald Trump ordered Cohen to violate federal elections.
Why are we here?
He did it.
How could you have a hung jury in that case?
One guy might be like, I'm not, I'm not doing that.
You can't even nullify.
They'll be like, do you think any one of these?
What about taxes?
He was reimbursing Cohen's taxes.
Yeah, I guess.
All right, then he's guilty.
They, they, wow.
They put up a bunch of different crimes and said, mix and match, choose your own adventure, lock him up.
You know what?
I tweeted this.
I hope Trump goes to jail.
I really do.
He'll win overnight.
That's what Kash Patel said.
Trump is probably counting on it.
When it came to the gag order violations, many people, and the left especially, were speculating Trump was trying to get locked up, but he needs to make it look like it's the judge's heavy hand and not Trump's heavy hand.
Meaning, Trump gets gagged and says, okay, okay, I won't, and then presses, pushes the envelope a little bit so it looks like the judge is being unreasonable because he wants the judge to lock him up.
Preparations have been made.
Secret Service prepares for possibility of Trump going to jail.
The Secret Service has reportedly met with jail officials in New York in anticipation of a possible conviction of former President Donald Trump's hush money case.
A corrections source told CBS News that such preparations were underway as the Manhattan trial reached closing arguments and jury deliberations this week.
The report said corrections officers would be responsible for protecting any Secret Service agents tasked with safeguarding Trump if he spends any time behind bars.
I, you know, look, I believe there's a greater than chance probability that this will benefit Trump if he goes to jail, but I don't know for sure.
Many people may just be like, wow, Trump did it.
He's found guilty.
I can't believe it.
I don't know that that would fly, though.
I gotta be honest.
I don't see that.
I have more faith in the American people.
Maybe I shouldn't, but I feel like regular Americans are going to be like, what is going on?
Fareed Zakaria, I'm gonna say this every time, said this case shouldn't be brought.
He said they would never bring this against anybody else.
Then to actually lock him up for it?
I believe would be the death knell for Democrats.
Newsweek says, it is unlikely Trump will be acquitted in his hush money case, a former federal prosecutor has said.
Niyama Rahmani, now president of the firm West Coast Trial Lawyers in LA, commented on the former president's chances of acquittal as the jury prepared deliberations.
He told Newsweek, an outright acquittal is unlikely, but a hung jury is very possible given
the political nature of the case, and even convictions on misdemeanors would be a victory
for the former president. In April, Trump, the presumptive 2024 nominee, became the first former
history to stand trial in a criminal case.
He has pleaded not guilty.
Romani said the defense's closing arguments should have focused on the charges in the case and stayed away from the two-star witnesses.
He added that the defense's case was partly built on the claim that the records were personal and not business-related, that they were not false, and that Trump didn't personally falsify the records, and that even if he did, they were not in furtherance or to cover up another crime.
If the jurors, or even one juror, buy any of these arguments, it's a win for Trump.
Paul Der Ohanesian, what a name, a criminal defense attorney in Albany, New York, told Newsweek that Trump's lawyers should have assumed that most jurors won't like their client and will want to convict him.
The best approach in this situation is to argue why the case is more important than Trump.
Why would jurors who don't like him acquit him?
Make the case about standing up for the principles of our justice system, like the presumption of innocence and reasonable doubt.
Stephen Gillers, a law professor at New York University, told Newsweek, the weakest link in the government's proof is Cohen.
Gillers added that prosecutors were able to show that there was a strong circumstantial evidence in the case.
He said circumstantial evidence, contrary to popular myth, can be as strong as or even stronger than direct evidence and can establish guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
None of it matters.
The judge basically just rigged the game.
Jury deliberation.
24 minutes in at the time of recording this.
Absolutely amazing.
We've got all these instructions.
A lot to break down.
And we'll get to what we can.
But I think this is all extremely important.
We're going to go back here about an hour.
Judge outlines which records jury can consider regarding unlawful means of falsification.
Judge is now moving through the 34 felony charges against Trump.
Trump speaks to the attorney as he reads the charges.
Judge reads entire law falsifying business records for the jury.
Judge Juan Marchand is now reading the entire law.
This includes the definitions for the relevant terms he listed earlier.
Meanwhile, Trump is slouched way back in his chair with his chin resting on his chest.
Judge explains the difference between motive and intent.
Marchand tells the jury their verdict must be unanimous on each count.
Now, here's the funny thing.
CNN does this.
But they do not include where the judge says, you do not have to be unanimous as to whether the crime was committed, on which crime was committed, just if a crime was committed.
Judge instructs juror in how they should deliberate.
A juror's notes cannot be used by others or in place of evidence, a judge says.
Several jurors look over the first seat, as the judge mentions the foreperson.
Judge Mershon describes the process of the verdict will play out.
Trump passes a note to his attorney.
The jurors will give their cell phones to a court officer while they're deliberating.
The judge says jurors may only discuss the case when all 12 individuals are together.
Judge says jurors will work until 4 30 p.m.
today.
We'll figure out the other days going forward.
He says if they stay late going forward it's unlikely they work later than 6 p.m.
I think the judge is fully expecting that the jury will come back very quickly with a guilty verdict.
And thus, Mershon concluded his instructions.
There is one clarification, which is the foreperson should not sign the note with his actual name.
Mershon asked the attorneys to approach the bench again.
Two jurors volunteered to learn how to use a laptop containing evidence.
Jeez.
You know, it's fascinating.
The challenge with a jury of your peers in today's day and age is that, you know, as the saying goes, you'll be judged not by a jury of your peers, but by a jury of people who did not know how to get out of jury duty.
It's never going to be a jury of your peers.
It's going to be a jury of random people.
I mean, these are not Trump's peers.
These are regular people.
Trump's entirely different.
And he doesn't even live in New York anymore right now.
The jury leaves to begin their deliberations.
You must find, beyond a reasonable doubt, first, that he solicited, requested, commanded, or importuned, or intentionally aided that person to engage in that contact, and second, that he did so with the state of mind required with the commission of the offense.
For the falsifying business records.
Let's go through this.
Okay, here we go.
Here are the instructions.
They must not make a decision based on biases or stereotypes.
They must set aside personal differences.
They must not speculate how long sentencing may be or what the punishment might be.
You know what's really funny is they say things like this.
If I'm ever on a jury, 99% chance I'm nullifying.
So I ain't probably ever gonna get on a jury.
If they show me a video of a guy committing a murder, and the guy says that he did it, but his defense is X, I'd be like, ah, come on, whatever, man.
But if you can't prove beyond a reasonable doubt, and I got a high standard, I'm just gonna be like... And if the judge is like, you cannot hold it against Trump for not testifying, okay, I agree with that Fifth Amendment.
If they said you can't speculate on sentencing, I absolutely will.
I'm gonna be like, you want me to convict the guy for pot and put him in prison for 20 years?
Nah, guilty.
I'll nullify.
The people must prove beyond a reasonable doubt every element of the crime.
He reminds the jury it must not rest on its verdict on speculation.
They can consider whether a witness hopes to receive a benefit.
They cannot convict Trump on Cohen's testimony alone because he's an accomplice, but they can use his evidence if corroborated with other evidence.
The jury must be unanimous if they find Trump guilty on each count on whether he committed the crime personally, acted in concert with others, or both.
They must determine if Trump conspired to promote someone or prevent them from public office.
They should deliberate with a view toward reaching an agreement without surrendering individual judgment.
Juror's notes cannot be used in place of evidence.
The foreperson will deliver the verdict for each count after deliberations are over.
They must surrender their phones and can only discuss the case when all 12 of them are together.
Rishan also explained what makes a person guilty of falsifying business records in the first degree.
Explaining that they must have the intent to defraud.
on what constitutes a violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act.
It is unlawful for an individual to willfully make a contribution to any candidate running for office, including the presidency, exceeding certain limits, which in the relevant years was 2700.
He also walked the jury through what they must find in the different counts leveled against Trump.
Mershon explained what tax law violations were and said it was unlawful for a person to willfully produce a tax statement or document that was false.
Fascinating.
They're claiming that Donald Trump was paying off Stormy Daniels and then did not properly track the record so the tax would reflect differently.
Amazing.
It makes more sense Trump didn't know about it.
Absolutely insane.
What they are doing to Donald Trump could be the end of business in New York as we know it.
We already saw with Kevin O'Leary, when it came to the civil trial, where they claimed that he was defrauding these banks because he had improper records, they said that the Trump penthouse was 30,000 square feet when it was 10,000 square feet.
I don't know the nuances of that, and I wasn't in the case, but I can tell you there's reasonable reasons for that discrepancy.
First, is it 30,000 total square feet and 10,000 finished?
Could it be that there's 20,000 square feet of unfinished floors underneath it that they don't live in?
Could it be that the guy who did the paperwork, who is not Trump, accidentally wrote the wrong number down?
That simple.
What are we looking at right now?
If you run a business in New York, and you get a bill in the mail from your legal team, you can't pay it.
Because if you do, they can make up a crime and say, you did it.
And they'll put you on trial.
Donald Trump's the boss.
That means he gets an invoice, it goes right to his CEO, his CFO, not him.
And they pay it.
That's their responsibility.
They pay it.
Why would Trump know about it?
We have bills that come in here, and it's a number, and I'm just like, sure.
Right?
Because we have teams that do things.
If we're getting a new delivery of something or, you know, let's say it's like we need new cameras.
They buy it.
And then they say, oh, we need you to sign this form.
Cameras.
Okay.
They could come and claim, actually, it wasn't for cameras.
And I'd have no idea.
And then they get some liar, couple liars, to go on the stand and just say, oh yeah, he knew.
And I'm like, man, I have no idea what you're talking about.
Show me the man and I will show you the crime.
That's where we're at.
They cannot leave the building.
Trump smiles in court as jury begins deliberations.
I love this.
As the jury begins deliberations, Donald Trump stood up and smiled and then began speaking with his attorney, Alina Haba, and his son, Donald Trump Jr.
Trump looked around on his way out of the courtroom and seemed to give a couple of small smiles to some reporters.
Remember, Trump is required to stay inside the Manhattan courthouse while the jury deliberates.
Perhaps they hope Jury deliberations will just go on for quite some time so that Donald Trump is jammed up and can't actually campaign or do anything to benefit his candidacy.
All of this press on Trump, jury deliberation is now at 32 minutes.
What are they even discussing, I wonder?
With the rules the judge just gave, what are they even discussing?
I feel like the only conclusion they can have at this point, based on what he said, is Trump must be guilty.
The prosecutor said in his closing arguments, the crime's already committed.
One woman who just says, I am not going to be party to this.
It really depends on where the sentiment is.
They live in New York City.
Do they want to be Bartman?
Is that as Vogel described it?
Wake up one day with a flaming bag of crap on their porch or a brick through their window?
I tell you, man.
People are going to hunt these jurors down.
I don't see how Trump gets a fair trial at all.
We already know it's not fair.
I don't see how he gets a fair verdict.
We'll see what happens.
Next segment's coming up at 4 p.m.
on this channel.
Thanks for hanging out.
We'll see you all then.
It's a viral video clip of a woman crying after her ex-fiancé was murdered.
And right away when I watched the video, I thought it was insincere.
It seems like a woman who's baiting to try and get views.
That's just my opinion on the matter.
But it turns out that may be the case.
The actor's family is furious.
They're saying that she's not spoken to him in years and they don't want her speaking about it.
But let's talk about this story.
Now this woman is getting a lot of flack.
She makes this tear-filled, crying video when her ex-fiancé was shot and killed by thieves.
The story is actually quite simple.
The man's name is a former soap star, Johnny Wachter.
He was fatally shot protecting a female co-worker from thieves in L.A.
Apparently he saw them approaching a vehicle, or his vehicle, I believe it was his vehicle, They say it took place shortly before 3.30 a.m.
in the corner of Pico Boulevard and Hope Street.
He was moonlining as a bartender was walking back to his vehicle.
with one of his female colleagues after finishing a shift.
When the vehicle came into view, he saw that it was jacked up, thinking it was being towed.
He asked the man who was lying on the street next to the vehicle whether that was the case.
It turns out they were stealing his catalytic converter.
The man pulled out a gun and shot Wachter, who was shielding his female colleague from harm
before he and the two masked accomplices, who were waiting, fled.
Now this woman made a video crying about what happened.
She says that we need legislation.
Just get a real job!
Why don't you get a real job?
Wow.
Here's what I think.
I think she's clickbaiting.
She saw that this happened and it was an opportunity for her to get views.
She clearly has no understanding of how government or policy works and this is why liberal cities are exactly the way they are.
Mike Cernovich had a post about this.
He says, back in the day, what would happen is the fiancé of the victim would round up a posse, the brother, the family, the friends would go track down the murderer, and they would get justice.
We didn't have policing.
I'm talking way back in the day.
I'm not saying it's a good idea.
I like the idea that police handle this stuff.
It takes risk off the regular people, and it's not always perfect.
It's not.
But it seems to have been developed this way for a reason, and there are a lot of good cops out there.
Now, Sernovich says it is women like this saying get a real job.
Ladies and gentlemen, from TMZ, Johnny Wachter's family doesn't want Axe talking murder.
She's far removed.
There you go.
Ex-fiancé passionately spoke out against his murder, and while her heart's in the right place, the actor's family thinks her mouth is elsewhere and not needed.
We talked to Johnny's mother, Scarlett, who tells TMZ that Johnny and Tessa Farrell dated years ago and haven't stayed in touch, not having spoken in at least two to three years.
She says his family also hasn't maintained contact with her, which is why she's peeved about her comments.
Tessa's emotional plea for stricter laws in L.A.
rings hollow for Scarlett, who tells us she believes Tessa is just clout-chasing, even though Tessa's tearful video certainly seemed genuine.
Uh, I don't think so.
In fact, we spoke to her to get more detail about what she'd like to see change in L.A.
Check it out.
Tessa says letting low-level crooks back onto the street under L.A.' 's zero-bail policy is a recipe for disaster, and in this case, tragedy.
Full stop.
Completely agree.
Completely agree, lady!
Completely agree.
She reiterates her demand to swiftly catch the suspects responsible for killing Johnny.
Completely agree.
And in the same breath, clarifies she was not sympathizing with them in her video.
Uh, she did.
She was like, can't you get a job?
You recall, she tearfully spoke directly to the guys who shot Johnny, saying she gets times are hard, but noted they could just get a job instead of ripping off catalytic converters and murdering people.
It's this mentality which results in the pain and the suffering.
She doesn't get it, or she does and she doesn't care.
These guys like committing crimes.
It is status for them.
It is fun for them.
That's it.
Statement that rubbed people the wrong way in a follow-up interview, Tessa clarifies that committing crime regardless of someone's circumstances is never okay.
Still, it sounds like Wachter's family has soured on her regardless.
His mom says she wishes Tessa would stop using her son's name for press, while pointing out that some of the things Tessa has mentioned, like the existence of surveillance video of the crime, is news to her.
In terms of what happens next, Scarlett says Johnny's body will be flown to South Carolina where his family lives, and they'll have a memorial in L.A.
for him at some point.
Cops have yet to make an arrest, and we're hearing the murder has rattled many in law enforcement, with sources telling us this is par for the course for the way criminals have been acting lately.
Namely, more brazen and violent without provocation.
Yeah, dude walked up and the guy put a bullet in him.
Crazy!
That's crazy.
You know, look, I've grown up, I grew up dealing with a lot of crime, man.
And, um, the mentality usually was criminals, at least where I grew up, they're not looking for a fight.
If they think you might be resistant, they'll try and go after someone else, given the option.
But, it just depends on if you're confronted by somebody with a gun pointed at you, Depending on your circumstances, you might just want to comply.
It is challenging though.
Telling everybody to comply results in criminals targeting everybody.
If the police put out a message saying, if you are confronted, fight back and make sure they regret it, criminals are going to have a harder time targeting people.
In Florida, they say, Don't come to the wrong house to loot.
Floridians are armed.
In Chicago, they say, drop to your knees and beg to be spared.
The criminals then go, everyone in this city is told to comply.
It'll make crime easier.
And what do you end up getting?
It's a perverse incentive.
Now it's getting worse and worse.
It's a sad story, man.
It really is.
But, uh, let me know what you think in the comments if you believe her tears are sincere.
She hadn't talked to the family or the guy in two or three years.
