		You don't want to miss it.
		Now let's get into the news.
		The data is starting to come in.
		The aftermath of the Donald Trump guilty verdict.
		Now we know, right after he was found guilty, he started raking in donations.
		And over the weekend, Donald Trump had a record with $200 million raised.
		But hold on there a minute, my friends.
		$100 million of that was coming from one individual.
		This is, I believe, Miriam Adelson.
		I could be getting the name wrong.
		She pledged $100 million to helping Donald Trump get re-elected.
		So it was about $100 million in donations, $70 million of which was small donors, 25% first-time donors.
		We got two big data points dropping today, as we are now getting close to about a week out.
		Trump campaign says it raised $141 million in May, boosted by a guilty verdict.
		Oh, you'll love to see it.
		And the polls, my friend, I love this one.
		The polls are starting to skew massively for Donald Trump.
		Now, the aggregate polling has not yet been updated completely, and so if you look at RCP and 538, you'll still see that it's give or take.
		At the very least, we can say with the current aggregate polling charts, nothing's changed, but that's because new data has not yet been put in.
		RCP, Real Clear Politics, actually has the latest polls, just not in their aggregate.
		So you can look at them.
		Rasmussen has Trump up five points.
		And a series of other polls over the past several days shows Biden does have his, a couple polls here and there.
		But it's beginning to look like Donald Trump is improving substantially.
		We had a poll come out recently among independent voters, and Donald Trump is up, I think, 12 points.
		So he's continued to maintain his lead among independent voters.
		Now, here's my favorite part.
		538 will not post Rasmussen, I guess?
		I mean, I think they do.
		For whatever reason, they've not yet plugged it into their aggregate, so, you know, fine, whatever.
		Trump's got a tremendous endorsement.
		One of the founders of the Black Panther Party has endorsed Donald Trump, saying Trump is a friend of black people.
		And then we have where we go from here.
		Democrats are panicking.
		Axios is running a story claiming that Republicans are going to jail Alvin Bragg.
		I'm shocked by this.
		Alvin Bragg?
		He's not even first on the list!
		Fauci probably is.
		So here's what we're going to do, ladies and gentlemen, for those listening on Rumble or YouTube.
		Comment below with your first-round prison draft pick.
		Who do you think will be the first?
		Comment on who you want to see prosecuted in the first-round draft for prison, and we shall discuss.
		So, before we get started, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, click join us, become a member, smash the like button.
		If you're listening on Rumble and you like the show, then become a member to support our work directly.
		We love Rumble, but we don't make the ad revenue off of Rumble, so we want to be here, we want to stay here, and we could use your support.
		Or just watch the show for free, I guess, because it's going to be here, because we like Rumble.
		Here we go!
		Al Jazeera says Trump campaigns has raised $141 million, boosted by the guilty verdict.
		Former U.S.
		President Trump and Republican National Committee raised $141 million in May, boosted by his guilty verdict.
		His campaign sent a press release on Monday.
		$53 million, more than a third of the total, was contributed in the 24 hours after the guilty verdict.
		Incredible.
		The tally, which Trump's team announced before being required to under campaign finance rules and is yet to be confirmed by official filings, is nearly double.
		The presumptive nominee said the enormous haul was driven by more than 2 million donations averaging $70.27, with one quarter of donors contributing to Trump's race against U.S.
		President Joe Biden for the first time.
		Trump's campaign said the haul reflected an outpouring of support for the former president over a verdict that had outraged and motivated Americans from every walk of life.
		Unfortunately for Democrats, their rigged political operation has backfired in a historic way, and Republicans are in a stronger position than ever to fire crooked Joe Biden and make America great again by electing Trump on November 5th.
		We live in a simulation or whatever.
		And I think it's funny because simulation theory is just like religion for people who don't believe in God or something.
		But just come on!
		The 5th of November?
	Talk about a day for an election!
	Remember, remember the 5th of November.
	We will not forget this 5th of November.
	Trump and his team have repeatedly cast the New York prosecution as a political witch hunt, orchestrated by Biden, despite there being no evidence the president had any involvement in the case, which fell under state, not federal, jurisdiction.
	I just... I'm just so... I just... Can somebody... Here's what we need.
	We need an autopsy... No, no, no, no, I'm sorry.
	Not an autopsy.
	Not a vivisection.
	Okay, we need to be able, like, long after these people perish of natural causes and live long healthy lives, I'm saying, we need science to analyze their brains to figure out what is wrong with them!
	It's got to be intentional, but no evidence that Biden was involved.
	I don't know, except that dude from the DOJ who, like, quit his job and then went to work for the state to prosecute Trump.
	Huh?
	Come on.
	And it's circumstantial, fine, but still.
	The massive fall continues an improvement in the fortunes of Trump's fundraising efforts.
	After his campaign, excuse me, Wow!
	Trump raised in one month?
	It says over the same period up to April, Trump raised $120 million.
	Trump raised in one month more than he did in a year?
	reported about 51 million in contributions.
	Biden's campaign raised more than 180 million in the 15 months up to, wow.
	Trump raised in one month?
	It says over the same period up to April, Trump raised 120 million.
	Trump raised in one month more than he did in a year.
	That is wild.
	Now that's what I call a backfire.
	Here's Newsweek.
	Let's enjoy it.
	It was thought Trump's conviction would sink him in the polls.
	It hasn't.
	Oh, I'm starting you off light, ladies and gentlemen.
	June 5th, 2024, Newsweek reports, Former President Donald Trump's chances of winning the 2024 election do not appear to have been significantly affected by the guilty verdict in this hush money trial, according to polls.
	Wrong!
	Donald Trump's chances of winning have greatly improved.
	Why?
	Because he raised a ton of money.
unidentified		Duh.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		A New York City jury on May found him guilty.
		We get it.
		We get it.
		Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee, denied any wrongdoing.
		We get it.
		While there were some polls that indicated Trump has been harmed by his felony conviction in the close race, there have also been more recent surveys that indicate the trial has not severely damaged his White House hopes.
		And Issues and Insights' TIPP poll published Monday revealed that Trump and Biden are tied at 41% in a head-to-head matchup.
		That's an improvement for Trump, who was behind Biden in an earlier INI TIPP.
		So Trump's improved!
		Can't you just see it?
		Newsweek say Trump improved.
		Man, they really just don't want to say it, do they?
		Let me let me slow this down for all of you on the back.
		If Donald Trump is behind Biden and then you find him guilty of crime and now he is tied with Biden, that means Biden went down and Trump went up.
		That is an improvement.
		Yo, I just.
		Oh, man.
		Ayn Rand was right.
		Where's Galt's Gulch?
		I'm ready to go.
		There's just too many slow people who are like, uh, he's tied now, so everything's normal.
		No, no, no, no.
		He improved!
		And he's raised more money!
		Some people are slow.
		The latest survey was conducted May 29th to 31st.
		Now, this is important because this means that the poll is taking place before he was found guilty and after.
		So, it's not a good indicator, necessarily.
		It showed that independents still heavily favor Trump, 38 to 26, up 12 points.
		If anyone was expecting a sudden mass exodus of Trump voters following the legal defeat, they were certainly disappointed, INI editor Terry Jones wrote in his analysis of the polling data.
		If anything, Trump's hand seems to have strengthened some in the immediate aftermath of the conviction.
		Elsewhere, a morning consult survey has Trump now ahead of Biden!
		Can I just... So, INI has Trump improve, morning consult has Trump improve, and you're like, it hasn't affected him at all!
		Okay.
		Newsweek contacted Trump's campaign for a comment.
		Well, I give you this, the latest polls from RealClearPolitics.
		We have general election, morning consult, Trump is up one.
		General election, Rasmussen, Trump is up five.
		That was just for Tuesday, June 4th.
		Incredible.
		Here's Monday, June 3rd.
		In North Carolina, Trump is up 8 and 12, but I don't really care about single states.
		We're looking at national aggregate.
		Alright, here we go.
		Sunday, June 2nd.
		General Election morning consult.
		Biden up one.
		So you mean to tell me that the next morning consult poll they have a couple days later shows Trump is now up one?
		So it's flipped?
		That's called improving!
		Thanks.
		It's not that Biden doesn't have his polls, but take a look at this.
		Forbes widespread with Biden, Kennedy, and with Kennedy, Stein, and West.
		And then Reuters, Ipsos has Biden up, too.
		It's not that Biden doesn't have his polls, but take a look at this.
unidentified		All right.

		Trump guilty verdict.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's let the trial of Donald Trump Oh, there's so many, there's so many.
		May 30th is when the trial concluded, I believe.
		It was decided, sorry.
unidentified		Right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, I just want to make sure I have everything right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Make sure it's all 100% correct.
unidentified		Here we go.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Decided, May 30th, 2024.
		Remember that date, everybody.
		May 30th.
		It's a very, very important date.
		I'm going to scroll down because I want to build this.
		Oh, this is so stupid.
		I want to build a suspense here.
		Okay, where's the verdict?
		Sentencing, gag order, blah blah blah, jury deliberations.
		May 30th at 5.07, Trump was found guilty.
		Ah, okay.
		On May 30th, the polls that came out were Biden up two, Trump up four, and then you had New York.
		So Biden was up in one of these polls.
		When you added Kennedy and Stein and West, Trump was actually up by four.
		Then on, so that's May 30th.
		On the 29th, Biden was up, no that's Virginia.
		Trump was still up.
		But you can see, I'll just put it this way.
		You had a poll favoring Biden, two of them.
		Since then, it has shifted towards Trump.
		Why is that so hard for them to write?
		Since, as more data begins to come in, and more polling is done after the verdict, Trump is dramatically improving.
unidentified		We call that backfiring.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The question is... You know, they're running these ads that say... Let me pull this up.
		I'll pull this up.
		They're running these billboard ads saying, I voted for Trump but I will not vote for a convicted felon.
		And it's pre-planned.
		It's all pre-planned.
		And you've got all these people being like, no it's not.
		It's easy to do.
		I said this is all pre-planned.
		You can't order billboards this quickly.
		We run billboards across the U.S.
		and prep takes time.
		I'm correct, 100% correct, and these are the billboards.
		Here's a guy named Kevin Wanker.
		I'm a former Trump voter.
		I won't vote for a convicted felon.
		Here's a guy named Robert Nix.
		I'm a former Trump voter.
		I won't vote for a convicted felon.
		And you cannot get billboards done in three business days.
unidentified		You can't.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Is it physically possible?
		Yes.
		It's just ridiculously unlikely.
		And, uh, yeah.
		It's not likely going to happen.
		What likely happened is, they had planned to make these billboards already, had worked on them, and let me do this, let me do this.
		Uh, Paige S. Hi, Paige.
		She is 8,000 followers.
		She follows me.
		She says, um, less government, more accountability.
		She says, I've done several billboards.
		You absolutely can.
		In fact, there are vacancies where you can off-month contracts, creative and installation within a week, 24 hours for digital.
		Yeah.
		Carlos Turbo says, I had a billboard made in 36 hours.
		It's not 1927, bro.
		Incorrect!
		You see, here's what these people aren't getting.
		Like, what do you mean?
		I can call my billboard company and say, here's a digital file.
		You're going to find four people to sign off on your billboard ad, have your graphics department design the ad, not super complicated to be completely honest, produce the digital file, send it to your billboard company.
		Okay.
		These are in Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin.
		Swing states.
		Possible?
		Yes.
		Not likely.
		I would bet a substantial sum of money this was all pre-planned.
		I don't get it!
		I didn't even think it was controversial to say that Republican voters against Trump planned on making billboards in advance of his guilty verdict.
		And people are like, that's not the case.
		Dude, can I call my broker right now and say, I'm going to send you a file, can you put it up somewhere?
		Sure.
		Okay, that means we likely have the file, we have something ready.
		You have people who have signed off on these statements.
		They did not do that in three days, okay?
		Like, maybe they did.
		I'm saying it's physically possible, but the likelihood is... it's no.
		It's no, okay?
		I suppose I shouldn't be so hyperbolic when I say you can't order billboards this quickly.
		When I'm working on billboards, we've done many billboards across the country, and we've got different companies that we've negotiated with.
		We typically only use one, because you negotiate, then the one will offer you the better deal.
		And the first thing we do is strategic placement.
		We say, hey, what's your inventory that you have available?
		They say, let me check for you.
		So three business days, very, very, very unlikely, but ultimately, What I'm talking about is, everything they did to put this together didn't happen overnight.
		It didn't happen overnight.
		So, let's not, uh, you know, this is why I don't like Twitter.
		Because it's not like I'm gonna write like 800 words explaining.
		The point is this.
		This organization, like, in all likelihood, 99% likely, Already has people lined up to make statements.
		They've been working on it.
		Already has design and things that are ready to go.
		It's not hard to make this design.
		That I agree with.
		That can be done in a couple days.
		They likely already have billboards chosen.
unidentified		Look.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They did not, when the news came in that Trump was guilty, went, holy crap, let's make a billboard right now!
		They likely said, weeks before, in the event Trump is found guilty, we should run these billboards.
		Let's get something lined up.
		That's what I'm saying.
		But, like, you know, people believe what you want to believe, I guess.
		But I appreciate You know, clarifying here.
		Prep takes time.
		It does.
		And the bigger issue is, if they're not digital, how fast is the turnaround?
		Dude, the likelihood... I'm assuming they're digital.
		Digital billboards, finger snap.
		You make the file, you send it, you're good to go.
		That's pretty easy.
		Getting the people lined up, I'm not buying it.
		Like, they already had these people lined up.
		Unless they made phone calls.
		I need a photo of you.
		We gotta photoshop it.
		Oh, come on, dude.
		They didn't do that over the weekend.
		I really, really, really, really, really doubt it.
		But for your standard vinyl billboard, where they actually print this stuff out, it ain't coming that quick.
		A week.
		I don't buy it.
		Not at all.
		But I digress.
		The main point here is, it's all planned out.
		All the ads.
		All the attacks.
		They're waiting for the next move.
		Okay?
		Take a look at this.
		Where's the, uh, Mark, uh... No, not this one.
		Where's the, uh, Mark Elias one?
		Here you go.
		Mark Elias says, my latest.
		Trump is planning his next crime.
		We don't yet know the exact details, but we know it involves subverting the will of the
		voters and undermining free and fair elections.
		And we know that he will spare nothing and no one who gets in his way.
		He didn't even do anything!
		This is absolutely amazing.
		Absolutely amazing.
		So here we are.
		Here we are.
		Axios ran this story.
		Behind the curtain, MAGA's jail plan.
		Oh yeah?
		If former President Trump wins in November, top supporters will push him to investigate, prosecute, and even try to imprison Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who won Trump's conviction in the Hush Money case.
		Of course Bragg should be and will be jailed, Steve Bannon said, saying, for the record, what many Trump supporters are privately plotting.
		Privately!
		The Biden campaign ran a clip from my show where I said we need lists of Democrats who have committed crimes and then we will charge and imprison them.
		It's fascinating because these people are so delusional.
		I don't necessarily blame them.
		They watch MSNBC.
unidentified		Jeez.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I have to go through the list, right?
		I have to go through the list.
		So they say, um, there was a comment on this article from Mediite where they were talking about it.
		And I said, we will uncover what you've done, prove it, and you will go to jail.
		And you get these comments where they're like, see?
		Uncover?
		They don't even think there are crimes!
		They're going witch hunting!
unidentified		Ugh.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know, I explain it like this.
		Are you going to be able to teach rocket science to a third grader?
		Are you going to be able to teach the intricacies of the global financial system, fractional reserve banking, modern monetary theory to a third grader?
		Probably not.
		And that's what we're dealing with.
		People who are so dumb.
		Keep it blunt.
		Okay, let's start with... We can go with the Burisma scandal first.
		Then we'll start going through the list of the crimes that were committed.
		Okay, so you have the Burisma, you have the quid pro quo.
		That is Joe Biden saying, if you don't fire the prosecutor, you're not getting a billion dollars.
		Alright, so that's on Joe Biden.
		You've got the business dealings between Biden, his brother Jim, and his kids.
		You've got 10% for the big guy.
		That's all top-level stuff.
		You've got classified documents, okay?
		And I'm just getting started, baby.
		Joe Biden's classified documents.
		You've got Barack Obama classified documents.
		And they all make arguments as to why these things are fine.
		But okay.
		Okay, all right, we'll slow down, we'll slow down there.
		These are all political jabs, right?
		Going after Trump over classified documents, get out of here, quid pro quo.
		Well, Biden did it and they got mad at Trump for doing it.
		Let's talk about, I don't know, like crossfire hurricane.
		Let's talk about election interference.
		Let's talk about when 51 intelligence officials came out and said that Hunter Biden's laptop was fake and that was pushed by the media.
		If you're gonna charge Trump with misinformation to manipulate an election, oh boy!
		You see the point?
		You do these things, we do them back.
		But wait, there's more!
		There's the Steele dossier.
		Hillary Clinton had to pay a fine.
		There's Bleach Bit.
		Destroying servers and public records.
		There are many, many instances that we have all lined up for criminal activity.
		And we are just waiting for that opportunity.
		Dr. Fauci lied to Congress.
		How about those people?
		I'm going to keep this one light.
		January 6th testimony, lying to Congress.
		How about Christine Blasey Ford?
		I don't know if you're going to have a good chance going after someone like her, because she's certainly lied.
		I don't see a reality in which anyone believes she's credible when she's like, I have two doors on my house, and they're like, you're Airbnb.
		I'm afraid to fly.
		You flew here.
		Well, I did it for this.
		You flew on vacation.
		All the time.
		Lies.
		Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
		But Fauci's up on the list.
		Anthony Fauci lied about funding gain-of-function research.
		That's confirmed in the press.
		Like, Newsweek was like, yeah, the dude actually lied.
		Alvin Bragg, ah.
		So Garland gets asked, if he has, by Matt Gaetz, about any communications with Bragg or otherwise.
		And he goes, I am not gonna, I'm not gonna sit here.
		And Gaetz is like, what's the, what's the problem?
		He goes, yeah, conspiracy theory.
		And he was like, I didn't say anything.
		I just said, can you send us communications?
		The guy lost his mind.

tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh, geez.
		You see, we know things that you've done.
		The crimes exist.
		We know the crimes happened.
		And now we're going to be fair and reasonable and present the evidence to the public of what you did and
		why you did it.
		And then you go to jail.
		You go to jail like you're trying to put Trump in jail.
		But that's what I love.
		They're like, they don't even know what crimes they're talking about.
		You know, when it came to crossfire hurricane, this is, you know, Russia gate scandal, they get one, one CIA lawyer.
		I think it was what Kevin Clinesmith was.
		Let me make sure I got that right.
		Make sure I have the name right here.
		Ex-FBI lawyer.
		Because it's what they always do.
		Spared prison for altering Trump-Russia probe email.
		Yeah.
		Carter Page was actually helping the CIA.
		And this guy altered an email so they could go after him and criminally charge him because they're corrupt.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There's a lot more.
		There's a lot, lot more.
		You think it just ends there?
		There was a meeting with, like, Biden, Obama, Comey, Yates, and they were discussing crossfire hurricane.
		Elements of it.
		This is all out in the public.
		How about this one?
		Let's do this.
		Let's do this one for you guys.
		Ukraine effort to sabotage Trump.
		Ukraine's efforts to sabotage Trump backfires.
		January 11th, 2017.
		They've never updated or retracted this story.
		Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office.
		They provided documents that ended up resulting in one of Trump's staffers going to prison.
		That was Manafort.
		Fascinating, isn't it?
		You want to play Russiagate?
		You want to play Crossfire Hurricane?
		We play that game.
		Comment below for your first round prison draft pick.
		And then, uh, hopefully Trump wins.
		I'll leave it there.
		Next segment is coming up at 1 p.m.
		on this channel.
		Thanks for hanging out, and I will see you all then.
		Oh man, ladies and gentlemen, we're in trouble here.
		We're in trouble!
		Dead Democratic congressman wins primary election.
		What are we supposed to do with a society like this?
		Ladies and gentlemen, I'm about ready to just hang it up.
		I'mma hang up the beanie.
		Hang up the beanie, go play poker, skateboard, and live in a van down by the river.
		Yo, I'll tell you what's demoralizing is this.
		There was no one else running, so a Democrat who's quite literally no longer alive has won his election.
		I just don't even get it, man.
		We got news reports coming out that voter turnout is low.
		Low voter turnout means Democrats win.
		What's the Democrat strategy right now?
		They're gonna ballot harvest because they know that Low voter turnout is expected.
		Ain't nothing you can do about it.
		You can go door-to-door, you can register new voters, but people ain't coming out to vote.
		And that's, that's, that's, that's the black pill.
		So I was hanging out in, you know, we have Charlestown.
		West Virginia has Charles 10 and Charlestown?
		Come on, West Virginia, what are you doing?
		And so we're hanging out in Charlestown and we met a guy, he's a city councilman, and he's very based and was explaining about the problems that are happening in the city.
		I was like, how did you have this Pride Month resolution in Charlestown, West Virginia?
		And he said, nobody votes.
		Because nobody votes.
		And I'm like, I remember there was this photo, this massive procession from the Latin Mass.
		Christians, Catholics, coming out.
		Thousands protesting, peacefully, quietly, respectfully.
unidentified		Where, where are the votes?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He said that these people don't come out to vote.
		They go to church, they don't vote.
		They don't vote.
		None of them do.
		And so what happens?
		The woke win the elections and then start passing all of these things.
		Christians just don't care.
		I'm sorry, that's just true.
		I think Christianity is worse off than we realize.
		I'm not a Christian, okay?
		But I can certainly recognize that my worldview and what we need in this country strongly overlaps with Christians.
		I would also say, with Jews, and to a certain degree, Muslims, Islam's a bit different, but, you know, agreed.
		There are certain things that we agree on, family, things like that, and we don't like the degeneracy targeting children and things like this.
		So the Abrahamic religions have a strong overlap with the moral traditions of this country.
		Now, that being said, I know Islam is particularly different.
		But we call it Judeo-Christian values, for the most part.
		The Founding Fathers had them.
		Unfortunately for us, Christians in this country have, in my opinion, largely given up.
		I don't know why.
		It's just true.
		Since, I don't know, the past several decades, we've seen less and less strength coming from Christian communities to push back on degeneracy and corruption, exemplified today by the fact that people just aren't voting.
		I got the data for you.
		Democrats, this is their strategy.
		Now, what do you do to convince people to go vote?
		I don't know.
		Because I kind of feel like everything we've done already should have been enough.
		Everything we've seen in this country.
		You can say you don't like Joe Biden.
		You can say you don't like Trump whatever.
		You can say there are problems or whatever.
		The question is, why don't they go vote?
		Maybe they've given up.
		They've just outright given up.
		I don't know.
		First, we'll start with this story because it's funny.
		A dead Democratic congressman won his election in New Jersey for a seat in the U.S.
		House of Representatives.
		Democratic New Jersey Rep.
		Donald Payne Jr., who died weeks after a heart attack in April, won the primary.
		I'm sick of this.
		How is this allowed?
		Are we stupid people?
		We must be.
		You know what?
		I'll tell you.
		Here's my religion.
		I'll tell you what my religion is.
		We live in a simulation that was created 10 years ago, and the people who made the simulation, the entities, whatever you want to call them, said, we're going to build this massive technological masterpiece, snap our fingers, and just put people there, and adjust their intelligence, and then see if they can maintain the system.
		Because I gotta tell you, if a dude is dead, you remove him from the ballot!
		You can't vote for a guy who's not alive.
		No, they leave him on.
		Because we're dumb.
		We're dumb people.
		But it's policy and procedure.
		You can't just take his- Are you kidding me?
		Ugh, man.
		I swear, we're in a simulation running at minimum capacity.
		It's like that episode of Rick and Morty where they have Rick trapped in a simulation but then Jerry gets trapped in the simulation so they turn the power down to five so they don't overload the system and then everyone's acting like an idiot.
		Yo, City of Jersey City, you just removed the guy!
		You just go, delete, he's dead.
		It's incredible.
		Payne was the only candidate on the ballot for the Democratic primary despite dying in office on April 24th.
		The outlet noted, 65-year-old passed away after the March 25th filing deadline, blocking a vacancy committee from replacing him.
		This is just so dumb!
	The Democratic parties of Essex County Union and Hudson must schedule a special election, blah blah blah.
	Because he was serving as the district's congressman when he died, a special primary election between 11 candidates will take place on July 16th.
	Here's the point.
	People vote for dead people.
	We don't have a functioning system, my friends.
	There is no functioning system, okay?
	That's just reality.
	It's supposed to be you go and you vote for the person you like.
	We don't have that anymore.
	I say we ban ballots.
	This is my proposal.
	Ban ballots.
	Here's how it works.
	You want to vote, you walk in, they say, here's a piece of paper, write the name down, print, and make it legible, because if we can't read it, we throw it in the garbage.
	Write the name down, put it in a box.
	That's it.
	This idea that we say, here's a list of names to choose from is the stupidest.
	Stop dumbing everything down.
	We need a hard reset.
	Okay?
	Maybe we do need some way to clean the cluttering garbage out of the system.
	Well, I got bad news for y'all.
	It's from Daniel Horwitz, R.M.
	Conservative, Senior Editor at The Blaze.
	He says, Iowa and South Dakota both had nothing to do in statewide last night.
	The legislature was the main event and of course, much bigger in South Dakota.
	Both states also have similar compositions to 2020, where there were no big top-of-the-ballot races.
	Ernst was up in 2020, but had no real challenge.
	Here is the turnout comparison.

		A little bit more, looks like 407.
		Tony Gonzalez vs. Brandon Herrera.
		Brandon Herrera, of course, is based AF.
		He is a Guntuber, and he's not a rhino.
		He is MAGA.

		To bolster libertarian values, populist values, American values in Congress.
		And they didn't show up.
		So you see this.
		From Daniel Horwitz.
		Voter turnout is low this year.
		Now maybe.
		The guilty verdict of Donald Trump will motivate people, and it will bolster Trump's numbers later in the year, but I'm not convinced.
		This is disheartening to see these results.
		CNN lays it out for you.
		The unusual turnout dynamic that could decide the 2024 election.
		I'll tell you what will happen.
		Right now, unless people actually show up to vote, which it's looking like they won't, We are going to get results.
unidentified		The polls favor Trump.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's what we're seeing right now.
		All the polls are favoring Donald Trump.
		He's raising record money.
		And then come November, Biden will win handily.
		And everyone's going to say, how is it possible?
		And it's going to be plainly obvious.
		Turnout will be low for Trump voters.
		Democrats will ballot harvest.
		It'll look like turnout is high, but they're just going to go knock on doors and collect pieces of paper.
		The fact that we are not seeing this similarly in Republican areas and Republican races says to me, Republicans aren't going to do it.
		They're not going to ballot harvest.
		Voter turnout will be abysmal, and Democrats will ballot harvest.
		Nobody really wants to go vote for Joe Biden, but when someone knocks on your door and says, just fill a thing out and give it to me, they'll do it.
		And that's how Joe Biden wins.
		And that's why they don't care.
		It's why they don't care about Ohio.
		Yeah, Biden's not on the ballot in Ohio.
		CNN reports.
		For decades, Democrats have built their electoral strategies on a common assumption.
		The higher the turnout, the better their chances of winning.
		But that familiar equation may no longer apply for President Joe Biden in 2024.
		A wide array of polls this year, and the date is important on this one.
		This is from May 29th.
		This is just last week.
		A wide array of polls this year show Biden running best among Americans with the most consistent voting, while Trump often displays the most strength among people who have been the least likely to vote.
		These new patterns are creating challenges for each party.
		Trump's potential appeal to more irregular voters, particularly younger black and Latino men, is compelling Democrats to rethink long-standing strategies that focus on mobilizing as many younger and non-white voters as possible.
		without worrying about their partisan allegiance. For Republicans, it will be challenging to build
		an organization capable of connecting with irregular voters they have not traditionally
		focused on reaching, particularly in minority communities.
		Quote, what all this means is that the election has volatility, says Daniel Hopkins, a
		University of Pennsylvania political scientist, who has studied the widening partisan divergence between
		voters with and without a consistent history of turning out.
		We used to expect the marginal non-voter, the next voter, who turned out if an election was very engaging, didn't look different from people who did vote.
		In this case, the crowd that hasn't gotten engaged looks very, very different.
		Merged results from the three most recent national NBC polls conducted by a bipartisan team of prominent Democratic and Republican pollsters, for instance, found that Biden leads Trump by four points among people who voted in both 2020 and 2022.
		But among those who voted in 2020 but not 2022, Trump led Biden by 12 points.
		I'm sorry.
		You didn't vote in 2022?
		This is Trump's problem.
		So maybe, maybe, Trump is going to get out the vote.
		No one cares about the down ballot.
		They only care about Donald Trump, and that is a weakness of Donald Trump.
		It is a strength that he's gotten new voters.
		It is tremendous that there are people who have never voted before who feel like they finally have a say in the system.
		But these people aren't voting down ballot.
		They're not voting for Congress, and they're not voting for the Senate.
		I asked JetGPT last night, we did these AI simulations based on polling, who do you expect to win, right?
		And so last night, one of our members at TimCast.com, become a member at TimCast.com, especially if you're watching on Rumble, you can support our work directly because we need your support.
		And we love Rumble.
		And so, someone asked us, run a simulation based on the Senate and the House.
		Current polling suggests the Senate will be 53 Republican, And Congress will be majority Democrat.
		And that means Trump will get nothing done.
		The only way we get what we need and save this country is with a supermajority.
		I mean in government in general.
		Not in Congress in any particular house.
		Although a supermajority in Congress is not possible.
		In the Senate it's not possible.
		It would be great if we actually got it.
		But if Democrats take the House and Republicans have the Senate and the Presidency, they're just obstructed again.
		And you'll see very little get done.
		And everyone's going to complain.
		Democrats will keep doing illegal things.
		They'll have panels.
	They'll impeach Trump 12 times.
	They won't stop.
	It will be absolutely bonkers.
	Republicans will do nothing.
	The only way we get what we need is if Donald Trump wins, Republicans win Congress and the Senate, and more importantly, I am offended.
	Offended by this number.
	This number.
	Brandon Herrera losing by only 400 and some odd votes.
	407 it looks like.
	I can't believe it.
	That's all he needed.
	And people didn't turn out.
	Nobody cares, I guess.
	Maybe that's it.
	That's why I gotta hang it up!
	Hang up the beanie!
	Gonna go live in a van down by the river.
	Play video games.
	Play some Fallout 76.
	Go fishin'.
	And just live off the land.
	I'll raise chickens and goats, and I will worry not for the externalities of life.
	Because nobody cares!
	It's remarkable.
	I know you care.
	Of course I care.
	But wow.
	We couldn't muster up anyone to go vote for Brennan Herrera in a district of 778,000 people, only 30,000?
	Incredible.
	hundred seventy thousand people in thirty thousand incredible
	how i say i i i don't know what happens this country man if people just don't care anymore
	communism will win That's the reality.
	People will sit by and just say, well, you know, whatever.
	Don't want to deal with it.
	The Titanic is a-sinking.
	And this is a big black pill, looking at these numbers.
	Looking at the voter turnout.
	I tell you this right now.
	A genuine question.
	How many of you did at least 10 push-ups today?
	How many of you have talked politics with someone else?
	How many of you have looked into how you can help people register to vote or actually volunteer or do something?
	Honest question.
	You don't have to.
	I'm just saying, if you feel strongly about this and you're getting upset that it's happening, my question is, what have you done today to improve upon yourself yesterday?
	For me, I do the show.
	Massively successful, I suppose.
	I do this show every day where I tell people, like, this is what we need to do.
	So, I would estimate that I've talked to about 3 million people.
	Because that's about, uh, the numbers we do for everything across the board with all our clips, both shows and otherwise, is probably like, um, 6 or 7 million per day.
	Wild, right?
	Spread out, though, because some clips get played, like, tomorrow and things like that.
	And so, um, I mean, I'm doing as much as I can.
	We bring people on the show, we talk to them, we try and warn people about what's going on.
	But I wonder if, you know, maybe it's all of you.
	Maybe every single person watching is like, hey look man, I went for a walk, I did some push-ups, I did research on the internet, I asked how I could help out on the weekends when I had time, but a lot of people just don't.
	I know that there are people who listen, who will complain, and then do nothing.
	They'll listen to the show, they'll comment and say, this is wrong!
	Let's go play video games.
	Okay.
	Look, man, I'm not telling you what you have to do.
	You know, go live your life.
	I'm just saying, we lose if that's the case.
	So I feel like the true test of whether someone cares is the action they take.
	You might know these things, but what are you doing about it?
unidentified		I don't know.
unidentified		Don't know!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't have all the answers.
		I don't.
		But one thing's undeniable is voter turnout is garbage.
		They say Hopkins conducted perhaps the most ambitious attempt to quantify the divergence between Americans with and without a history of voting.
		Earlier this year, he and a colleague worked with NORC, the University of Chicago, to survey over 2,400 adults about their preferences in the 2024 race.
		The poll only surveyed people.
		The results are striking.
		Among adults who had voted in each of the past three federal elections, Biden led Trump by 11 points.
		Biden eked at a narrow advantage among voters who participated in two of the past three races, but the poll found Trump led Biden by 12 points among those who voted in just one of the past three elections, by a crushing margin of 18 points.
		I love it!
		Trump supporters don't vote!
		They don't vote!
		Look at this!
		The best news Democrats could have ever heard.
		Trump voters don't vote.
		They vote one time, and then they walk away and they forget about it.
		Now, there you go, ladies and gentlemen.
		If you're wondering where your country went, it's because ain't nobody doing anything.
		Because they'll whinge, and they'll complain, and they'll rally for Trump, but they don't show up.
		Better show up, I guess.
		Talk about the state of affairs of this nation.
		They say it's important the pattern held across racial lines.
		That's amazing.
		Biden held nearly a 20-point advantage among those who voted in all three, among Latino voters.
		With Black voters, Biden-Lee was just 10 points among those who did not show up for any of the past three elections, but over 80 among those who participated in all three.
		Using data from Catalyst, a leading Democratic voter targeting firm, Michael Podhorzer, the former political director of the AFL-CIO, reached similar conclusions.
		So you know what this is.
		There are people who just show up and they check D or R and they have no idea what's going on in the world.
		Well trained.
		Trump supporters are people who are starting to realize what's happening and getting angry about it and now they're changing the way they vote.
		The only problem is they don't show up.
		They didn't show up in Texas's 23rd.
		They didn't show up in Iowa or South Dakota.
		That's crazy.
		That's absolutely crazy.
		I wonder what it was about 2020 that had voter turnout up.
		Universal mail-in voting, perhaps?
		The lockdowns?
		Sure.
		Considering how screwed up everything is, and how dangerous this next election, this next, the threats we face are, is how important the election coming up is, I'm not convinced, right now, that we're in a good spot.
		I think culturally we're winning for sure.
		I mean, you look at UFC and things like that.
		You look at how finance is going.
		Like, these big companies are getting woke and going broke.
		But you look at voting, and there's strong reason to believe it's going to be Biden once again.
		Doesn't matter that his brain don't work.
		These people are voting on garbage.
		They're voting in dead people.
		Okay?
		This is what you're up against.
		A zombie horde that will vote for a dead man.
		How do you win?
		Overwhelm the polls.
		I suppose the problem is there is not enough right-wing ground game.
		You know, Scott Pressler out there doing the Lord's work, but not much else.
		I can't believe we're seeing these numbers.
		But not all is lost.
		It's not always going to be, you know, white pills.
		It's not always going to be black pills.
		The night is always darkest before the dawn.
		And things may change.
		Perhaps things will be very, very different come November.
		I hope so.
		I'll leave it there.

	We'll see you all then.
	This is it.
	The U.S.
	has begun strikes in Russia.
	I'll stress that again.
	The United States has begun military campaigns inside Russia.
	Now, of course, the official news is that Ukraine has engaged in military strikes inside Russia, but these are U.S.-made weapons under the guidance of the United States, and no one outside of people who watch MSNBC, I guess, believes that this war is Ukraine versus Russia.
	It is, in fact, NATO versus Russia.
	The Kremlin has threatened direct war against NATO.
	Should Ukrainian forces use U.S.
	weapons in Russia?
	And it has begun.
	Ladies and gentlemen, um, you know, I'm just gonna- I'm just gonna go ahead and- I didn't actually plan this.
	But, uh, let's see if I can pull this up.
	It looks like World War III is- is already going on.
	I don't know how you describe this.
	Um, we have another story from Newsweek.
	World War III has already begun, claims Russian TV.
	I don't do a lot of promos for this.
	I didn't even have it pulled up, but I'm gonna pull it up now just because this is safeandreadymeals.com.
	Again, I will stress, safeandreadymeals.com.
	These are food buckets that last 25 years.
	You can see you've got a one-month emergency food kit, three-month emergency food kit.
	Man, guys.
	You know, I pointed this out a while ago.
	You could probably pull up the old video.
	That if you were to have bought one of these a couple years ago, it was way cheaper.
	Inflation, I don't think anyone's doing that on purpose, but I personally have a lot of these.
	People say, Tim, don't tell people you have emergency food.
	I didn't tell you where it was!
	We're also armed and safe, but look, with the escalation that we're seeing, Safeandreadymeals.com.
	I'll say it again.
	Sometimes it rains, sometimes it floods, sometimes there's tornadoes.
	Do you have a plan for what you're going to eat and drink?
	The way it's supposed to go is you never touch your emergency food, you figure out how to get food supplies in the event of an emergency, and only crack into your emergency supplies when you have no choice.
	But considering what we're seeing now, You know, in 2020, I did a promo for Safe and Ready Meals, and a lot of people bought that stuff.
	If you did, you don't need to buy it.
	I mean, it's only been four years.
	You got another 21-year life on that food you bought.
	You buy it one time.
	I just hope you guys are prepared.

	You know, a couple years ago, New York ran a PSA on nuclear strikes in New York City.
	Why?
	Don't ask me.
	But I cannot stress enough right now.
	You know, in the U.S., they're going to tell you in the corporate press, Ukraine is doing this.
	As the New York Times says, the New York Times says, Ukraine strikes into Russia with Western weapons.
	No one outside the U.S.
	thinks this is Ukraine versus Russia.
	Russia has been saying for, what are we going on now, like two years?
	They've been saying, this is war with the United States.
	If Ukrainians are using our weapons to strike Russian territory, congratulations, we're at war with Russia.
	And now we are beginning the invasion into Russia.
	Unsustainable.
	Here you go.
	Sky News.
	Only a week ago, Kremlin official threatens war against NATO if Ukraine uses U.S.
	weapons against Russia.
	Well, here's the news from the New York Times.
	We are inches, minutes away.
	I can't tell you.
	Hopefully nothing happens.
	Hopefully tomorrow they just say, no, no, no, no.
	Russia's refusing to engage.
	I hope.
	I hope in the meantime, you're prepared.
	Ain't no silly games anymore.
	Look, man.
	You got a first aid kit.
	I know you do.
	Everybody does.
	You might not.
	Most people don't even know where it is.
	Cause you never really use it.
	But you got one, right?
	Some people have EpiPens.
	You know, cause you never know.
	Someone could have an allergic reaction, you could save a life.
	We got a bunch of first aid kits, we got a bunch of emergency stuff, but we live out in the middle of nowhere, and so it's not just about if World War III is starting, although many people have been saying for like a year now it is, but it's also like, ambulance is really far away, right?
	So if someone were to get hurt here, we have first aid kits, we have emergency food because the roads could get blocked up, and we'll take care of ourselves.
	The New York Times reports.
	Crazy, they got a video of it.
	Man, this is nuts.
	Just days after the Biden admin granted permission for the Ukraine to fire American weapons into Russia, Kiev took advantage of the new latitude, striking a military facility over the border using a U.S.-made artillery system, according to a member of Ukraine's parliament.
	Yehor Chernev The Deputy Chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament's Committee on National Security, Defense, and Intelligence said on Tuesday that Ukrainian forces had destroyed Russian missile launchers with a strike in the Belgorod region, about 20 miles into Russia.
	Ukraine's forces used a high-mobility artillery rocket system, or HIMARS, he said.
	It was the first time a Ukrainian official has acknowledged publicly that Ukraine had used American weapons to fire into Russia since President Biden lifted the ban on such strikes.
	For months, the ban has stood as a red line the Biden admin would not cross out of concern about increasing tensions with a nuclear-armed nation.
	The Ukrainian military did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
	In granting permission last week, the U.S.
	imposed limitations, saying the weapons could only be used in Russian territory near northeastern Ukraine and for defensive purposes.
	Mr. Chernev in text messages said, Ukraine destroyed S-300 and S-400 missile systems without specifying how many.
	Russia has used the systems, initially designed to shoot down aircraft, to bombard the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.
	Which is just 45 minutes from Belgorod.
	The HIMARS that Ukraine uses is an American-made long-range rocket system that is able to fire from beyond the range of most of Ukraine's non-Western weaponry.
	Mr. Chernev's account of the strike could not be independently confirmed, but videos of the aftermath of the attack on the S-300 and S-400 system emerged on Monday.
	Satellite imagery and social media posts suggest there were multiple strikes in Russian territory over the weekend.
	Welcome to World War III, ladies and gentlemen.
	Mr. Chernev, a former member of the Ukrainian military, is also the head of Ukraine's delegation to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, a role which has led him to take part in discussions with Western partners about the supply and use of Western weapons.
	A video from a Russian telegram channel showed burning Russian military equipment and a swirling plume of grey smoke.
	After a strike on Sunday.
	The video, which was verified by the New York Times, was recorded just outside of Belgorod.
	And satellite imagery captured at this location by Planet Labs shows smoke rising from what appears to be destroyed vehicles.
	At least one of the launchers was in an elevated position at the time of the attack.
	Rob Lee, a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute and an expert on the Russian military and modern warfare, said the range and precision of the attack of the missile launching system suggested the weapon used was American.
	Given the range, type of target, munition availability, and change in the Biden admin's policy, I think it's probable this strike was conducted with HIMARS.
	Russian bloggers, researchers analyzing satellite images and footage of the battlefields, and the Russian Defense Ministry have reported multiple instances of strikes inside Russia with American rockets since Thursday, when the Biden admin approved their use.
	On Saturday, Evgeny Poe Dubny, a war correspondent for Russian state television, shared photographs of what were presented as fragments of American guided rockets found in Russian territory.
	It was not possible to independently verify when or where the fragments were found.
	Alright.
	We get it.
	Man.
	Dark days indeed.
	Sky News reported this on May 31st.
	A top Russian official has said it would go to war with NATO if Ukraine strikes inside Russia with U.S.
	weapons.
	On Thursday, President Joe Biden partially lifted restrictions on how Ukraine can use military supplies.
	In response, senior Russian security official Dmitry Medvedev issued a series of warnings.
	Quote, Russia regards all long-range weapons used by Ukraine as already being directly controlled by servicemen from NATO countries.
	This is no military assistance.
	This is participation in a war against us.
	And such actions could well become a casus belli.
	It means cause for war.
	An act that provokes a war.
	Well, casus belli is usually used in the context of reason for going to war.
	Not an action necessarily that provokes war.
	That is literally what it means.
	But often like, so Russia wants to go to war with the U.S.
	He said it would be a fatal mistake in the part of the West to think that Russia was not ready to use tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine, and spoke of the potential to strike unnamed hostile countries with strategic nuclear weapons.
	This is, alas, neither intimidation nor bluffing.
	He said Moscow's conflict with the West was developing according to the worst case scenario, that nobody today can rule out the conflict's transition to its final stage.
	The partially lifted restrictions from the U.S.
	mean Ukraine can use American weapons to strike inside of Russia, but only in defense of Kharkiv.
	However, U.S.
	officials stress that Ukraine still cannot use American long-range missiles, blah, blah, blah, because they already did.
	Man.
	I don't know.
	World War III has already begun, claims Russian state TV.
	I don't think anyone would deny it.
	If this conflict escalates from here, nobody would deny it.
	The Battle of Fort Sumter.
	Civil War.
	1861.
	That's when we say the Civil War began.
	The only casualty was an accident.
	The Battle of Bull Run.
	The first Battle of Bull Run.
	Manassas.
	Just outside of D.C.
	Nobody believed a civil war was possible.
	But think about that timeline.
	I love this point.
	I bring it up on a lot.
	Townspeople crowded around the hillside, picnicked.
	They said, there's not going to be a civil war.
	We know, based on history, or at least how we view it, civil war had actually already begun at that point.
	But even after the Battle of Fort Sumter, the people of the United States and the Confederacy did not think a war would happen.
	I will stress that again.
	The war had already started from a historical context.
	And people, in the Civil War, went to the hillside to watch, thinking it wasn't happening.
	That's where we are today.
	The U.S.
	is attacking Russian territory now.
	They tried to set up a beachhead in Gaza, and that failed.
unidentified		Yikes.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what to tell you, man.
		I just hope y'all are paying attention and you're prepared for the worst.
		We hope for the best, we prepare for the worst.
		Maybe next month everything stops.
		I got no idea.
		But call it what you want.
		Ukrainian forces are operating under the behest of NATO.
		And they are using US-made weapons to attack Russia.
		The Kremlin, Dmitry Medvedev, already said This is a war with NATO.
		Do not attack our territory.
		And we did.
		There you go.
		Again, I don't know what to tell you.
		You know, we had Ron Coleman here on TimCastIRL, and he says, you are the furthest away... He said, this is the furthest any Jew has ever traveled.
		And I'm like, we have a metro of like half a million people like 20 minutes away.
		We have several, actually.
		Like, we're in a large metro.
		We're like an hour from DC.
		An hour with no traffic, to be fair.
		So usually it's like an hour 20.
		In Chicago, you drive an hour from Chicago, you're still in the Chicago metro.
		The Chicagoland area.
		But, you know, people call it different things, so.
		But it is true, we're out in the middle of nowhere.
		We built Freedomistan from scratch.
		There was already a house here, but the building we're in right now.
		We built this whole thing.
		That's wild to think.
		It's crazy.
		We built it from the ground up.
		It was an empty field.
		Installed everything, electricity, plumbing.
		Built the walls 40 feet tall.
		People wonder why we did.
unidentified		I don't know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I hope I'm wrong about everything.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I hope I am completely wrong about everything.
unidentified		I hope so.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I got bad news though.
		I tend to be right about a lot of things.
		Maybe not most things, I don't know.
		Maybe just 50.1% of things.
		How is it that we've come to be in a massive building, multi-million dollar property on a 50-plus acre plot of land with multiple buildings, expanding the studio, building this company?
		Pattern recognition.
		That's it.
		Planning is pattern recognition.
		We were ad-supported.
		And then in the beginning of 2021, I said, we need to build a membership model.
		At the time, the company operated off of ads, and we did really well.
		Ads aren't doing as well as of late.
		Shifting to a member model, if we didn't do it, this company would not exist.
		The success of this company is predicated upon, likely, I would say, or to a great degree, my pattern recognition.
		That's most businesses.
		Blockbuster had bad pattern recognition.
		They built themselves up, then collapsed, and they didn't adapt and take over like Netflix did.
		That could happen to us.
		Nobody's omniscient.
		But I would say a good portion of the time, when I see things on the horizon, economically, business-wise, we make plans that result in a net positive, a net benefit.
		Pattern recognition plus perseverance and hard work, path to success.
		That has me worried.
		There's a reason why we choose to get out of the cities and go to the middle of nowhere.
		Civil and international conflict.
		We wanted to be far away.
		We have satellite backup systems.
		We have emergency solar generators.
		Because of what we are seeing in the news.
		And people say, Tim, go touch grass.
		Blah blah blah.
		Of course.
		Touch grass all the time.
		Went to the Hagerstown Skatepark.
		Had a blast.
		Hung out with people who don't really pay attention all that often.
		They don't have to, I guess.
		But I tell you, man.
		You know, if you were to have invested in Nancy Pelosi, there's something called the Pelosi Strategy.
		We all know Nancy Pelosi is really great at buying stocks.
		There is a Twitter account called Quiver Quant, Quiver Quantitative.
		If you had followed them, and I'm not giving financial advice, I'm stating a fact, if you had invested in Nancy Pelosi's stock purchases the same way she did, you'd be up, I think, 150%.
		She put in like $5 million, she upped to $15 million.
		Imagine if you had a couple grand, you put it in, now you had $15 grand.
		And it's like not even been a year.
		We know these things because you watch the news, I read the news.
		I read the news all day, every day.
		When I see what's happening in the news, and then I decide the investment I will make is gonna be in like antiseptics, septic systems, solar power, remote buildings, getting away from cities, man, that scares me.
		It's a scary thought.
		I hope that I'm completely wrong about why we are making these investments.
		But I don't think I am.
		I'm not saying anything bad's gonna happen like a nuke dropped on D.C.
		or anything.
		I'm saying that we made these plans due to the fear of civil unrest.
		Due to the fear of lockdowns, international conflict, or worse.
		And it looks like we are ever-inching towards the worst-case scenario.
		Look at this tweet.
		Anton Geraschenko says, quote, you want World War III, you're already in it.
		And that's a quote from Russian propagandist Solovyov.
		Russia has no intentions of any real negotiations of peace.
		It is bloodthirsty.
		Well, this guy's insane.
		The U.S.
		is attacking Russian territory.
		If Russia staged rockets in Mexico, empowered the cartels, and the cartels started bombing Arizona, yeah, we'd be at war too.
	It's not gonna get better.
unidentified		I don't see it getting better, man.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I hope that electing Donald Trump stops this, but we're at a point now where I don't know.
		They say Kremlin propagandists have routinely warned of a looming world war.
		Ties between Washington and Moscow have become increasingly strained over Putin's decision to launch a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
		Russian officials and guests on state TV regularly call for strikes on U.S.
		soil in the West.
		Over aid and weapons provided by Biden and other NATO members to Kiev.
		There was recent reporting that Russia removed the lines of demarcation markers between their border and Estonia.
		Let me see if I can pull up a map here and we can take a look.
		Get out of here Google.
		Google doing a prompt on me.
		Let's do this.
		We're gonna pull up this map here and take a look.
		Over at, uh, Russian territory.
		So we've got, uh, this lake here.
		This is, uh, what do you call it?
		Lake?
		It's this apparent lake.
		Pipus.
		And the reporting was that there was a line of demarcation in the middle of the lake.
		Beacons, basically, showing where Russian territory is—Russia's controlling it, and Estonia is.
		And they removed it.
		The West has been saying over and over again that Vladimir Putin is going to make a move on Poland.
		Belarus, of course, is aligned with Russia.
		Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia bordering Belarus, Lithuania is.
		Lithuania borders Russia and Belarus, Latvia as well.
		Estonia borders Russia.
		Kaliningrad is an important point.
		Kaliningrad is actually isolated.
		I forget what they call it.
		It's an enclave.
		Isolated from mainland Russia, north of Poland, and southwest of Lithuania.
		This territory here, Kaliningrad, is Russian-controlled, and they have been bolstering their military presence there.
		Now, I think the Western forces have been lying in claiming that Russia would make a move on Poland.
		But perhaps they weren't They weren't lying, they were just not explaining exactly what their plans were.
		With the U.S.
		strike in Russian territory, don't be surprised now if Belarus and Russia do make moves on Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, or Estonia.
		Not because Russia did it, but because the U.S.
		NATO has engaged in direct war with Moscow, and now Russia will make a move.
		Perhaps on Estonia, I don't know.
		If Russia does make any of these moves into Estonia, into Latvia, if Belarus makes any moves, if Russian troops in Belarus make these moves, World War III is unquestionable.
		We're in it.
		I don't know, man.
		I really don't know what else to tell you.
		The U.S.
		launched its attacks.
		Biden launched his attacks.
		Under the cover of the Trump guilty verdict, when nobody was paying attention, Biden greenlit U.S.
		strikes into Russia.
		And here it is.
		The Russian city of Belgorod.
		And U.S.
		forces are firing into it.
		They keep saying Ukrainian.
		These are people trained by NATO, trained by the U.S., armed by the U.S.
		There are U.S.
		personnel on the ground, special forces, guiding their operations.
		Simply because the hand holding the gun is Ukrainian does not change the fact this is a U.S.
		operation.
		Hope for the best, pray for the best, prepare for the worst.
		SafeAndReadyMeals.com, do it or don't, whatever, you live your life the way you want to live it.
		I hope I am wrong about everything.
		But in the event that I'm right, you know, heaven help us.
		I don't know what World War III will look like.
		Hope for the best, man.
	I'll leave it there.
	Next segment's coming up at 6 p.m.
	on this channel.
	Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
	I don't need to tell you this, because you already knew Star Wars is dead.
	Star Wars is the cow that they beat to death and then think they're getting milk out of it, but it's not milk.
	I don't know what it is.
	It's probably just, like, bodily waste from a dead cow.
	Okay?
	The original Star Wars.
	Talk about amazing.
	I remember the original Star Wars where Luke Skywalker desperately tried to reach out, there we go, reach out, and the lightsaber twitches a little bit, flies to his hand, and then he saves himself from the Yeti thing on Hoth or whatever.
	It's been so long since I've seen those movies.
	We like the idea of the force.
	This telekinesis you could use.
	And what did we see in those movies?
	Darth Vader squeezes and force chokes a guy.
	That's about it.
	I mean, to be fair, Luke Skywalker did try to lift an X-Wing or something.
	The Acolyte.
	Reportedly the gayest Star Wars ever made.
	Apparently, they say, this is from Bounding Into Comics, The Acolyte, to reportedly lose everyone after the third episode, get ready for pronouns in Star Wars.
	We have this one.
	The Acolyte showrunner, Les, Leslie?
	Is that it?
	Lesly?
	Hedlund says, preview audience regularly praise series as the gayest Star Wars.
	Why?
	That's exactly what people want to watch, I guess.
	Sure.
	According to a new report, while the two-part premiere of Leslie Halen's The Acolyte will come across as inoffensive to longtime Star Wars fans, the series' third episode will lose everyone thanks to some truly abysmal creative decisions.
	Word of The Acolyte's forthcoming shark jumping was first raised to the public courtesy of noted film critic In light of his having previewed the series first four episodes, Gore was pressed by his fellow panelists, G&G founder Jeremy Griggs and noted YouTube personalities Ryan Cannell and Critical Drinker, if he could offer any insight as to what viewers could expect from the series.
	In turn, he unfortunately asserted, These first two episodes are pretty basic.
	They get you into the story and the world.
	Episode 3, I'm warning you now, it's going to completely lose everyone.
	Oh boy.
	They completely redefine what the Force is.
	You're going to see two mothers conceive twins, a bunch of witches that are, it is basically, the Jedi turn into cops, and child protective services.
	It's like the CPS of the galaxy.
	Okay, Episode 1 and 2, whatever, it's fine.
	But three and four, get ready for pronouns in Star Wars.
	It's happening.
	I'm literally considering having a funeral for Star Wars.
unidentified		Now?
unidentified		Only now?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Dude, when they did the sequel series, I was like, it's over.
		The Emperor somehow comes back and then turns himself into a woman?
		Dude.
		So, listen.
		This is how bad Star Wars is.
		So, like, people are already pointing out, I don't know if it's the acolyte where, like, the person jumps and then she, like, force-lifts them up, but it's like, ugh, just stop, just make it stop.
		It's so bad.
		Okay, let's talk about, um, the last, what, no, not the last Jedi, uh, Rise of Skywalker, that's what it was called.
		So, um...
		Last Jedi just absolutely obliterated Star Wars.
		Shout out Rian Johnson.
		He was like, we're going to subvert expectations and like Snoke the bad guy just dies abruptly for no reason and then you're like, I don't know what's going on.
		I think what happened was The Force Awakens was effectively a shot-for-shot remake of A New Hope because they didn't know what to do.
		So then when they brought Rian Johnson in for Last Jedi, he's like, I'm going to just flip the script and do random stuff.
		And that didn't work out too well either.
		I love the, um, when they're launching plasma blasts in space and they're arcing like there's gravity, whatever.
		Okay, sure.
		And then they're just like, don't look out the window.
		And they do.
		And then there's like, oh, look, it's just so stupid.
		Anyway, The Rise of Skywalker is the best, because not only did they completely ruin Luke Skywalker's character, that's when I'm like, you're done!
		He's the OG, you're done!
		The best part is, the Emperor is like, become me!
unidentified		Like, if you are hateful and embrace your rage, I will enter your body!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Or something.
		Like, the story is literally that the Emperor is being artificially kept alive or whatever, And Rey is like his granddaughter or something.
		And so he needs her to kill him.
unidentified		Strike me down in anger!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So he can take over her body.
		And then she does.
		Like, that's what happens.
		He says, strike me down and then I will take over your body and like be young again or something.
		The Emperor wants to be a young woman.
unidentified		And then she does!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So I'm like, okay, does that mean, like, canonically, the Emperor is still alive inside the body of Rey?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Like, he's living in her?
unidentified		Sure!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I guess.
unidentified		Yo, this series is so dead.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		See, I like the Marvel stuff.
		They did, like, the MCU is basically an inadvertent reboot of the Marvel Universe.
		And then there's, like, the multiverse stuff is just, you gotta knock it off.
		Like, the multiverse stuff is too bad.
		But, like, with Marvel, the movies, the cinematic universe was a soft reboot.
		The origin of Captain America, they did their own version on it, Iron Man.
		And then you get Avengers Endgame, and that's when it's over, I gotta be honest.
		Avengers Endgame got a little too member-berries for me.
		Infinity War, I think, is a masterpiece.
		Really amazingly done.
		I don't think we got the great conclusion we wanted with Endgame, but it was okay.
		After this, it's chaos and noise.
		You know, I don't mind Spider-Man and these other movies, but it's really just getting blech.
		So I've not watched anything since.
		I mean, like, I've seen Ant-Man.
		I like Paul Rudd.
		I like that stuff.
		And it's not that it's so much getting woke, it's convoluted.
		Now, Star Wars is convoluted, woke, nonsensical garbage.
		But wait, it gets worse.
		Here we go.
		Continuous criticisms of the series.
		Goral Pined.
		Aside from the fact that the show is cheap looking, for all the money they spent it looks cheap, the exterior scenes in Forest look shot on a soundstage, it's very obvious, it lacks male energy.
		That's one way to put it.
		I don't think any straight man should be in charge of women's cosmetics or women's fashion brand, and by that same idea I think that women who put together the show cannot make Star Wars for the audience that has loved it for years.
		It is just devoid of everything you used to love.
		Not even shreds.
		Yikes.
		He goes on to further note that white guys in the show are all sidelined or weak.
		Turning back to The Acolyte's third episode, he said, You know, we'll get a lot of lesbians in space.
		That'll be great.
		Lesbian witches that conceive children.
		So get ready for episode three.
		The first two tonight are gonna be like, whatever.
		It's a police procedural with a murder and all that.
		None of it.
		All of it, none of it makes sense.
		For those curious or sadistic enough to subject themselves to yet another Disney Star Wars production, The Acolyte's first episodes are now streaming on Disney+.
		Meanwhile, the series' allegedly disastrous third episode will air June 11th.
		So I have this from Joel Berry.
		He says, The Acolyte is a queer Marxist vandalization of the myth of Star Wars.
		In The Acolyte, the Force is a metaphor for cultural hegemonic power.
		The Jedi are a metaphor for cisgender white oppressors who hoard the power for themselves.
		Yes, it really is that obnoxious and stupid.
		And here you go.
		The next article for Mounting Into Comics.
		According to showrunner Leslie Hedlund, those who were privy to early previews of The Acolyte routinely walked away from the series believing it was the gayest piece of Star Wars media ever conceived.
		She calls that praise.
		I don't know what you're... Arguably the gayest Star Wars yet.
		This is what women like!
		Like, women overwhelmingly vote for this stuff.
unidentified		Right?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know?
		It is what it is.
		The former assistant to Harvey Weinstein weighed into the topic while speaking to The Wrap's Drew Taylor in promotion to the series' upcoming premiere.
		Asked by Taylor, quote, this is arguably the gayest Star Wars by a considerable margin.
		Are you excited about that?
		Embracing that?
		Are you excited about how this is going to be a talking point?
		The showrunner began her response by first pushing back, it's not the gayest Star Wars, before questioning, is it going to be a talking point?
		How is it not the gayest?
		What's the gayest?
		In turn, series star Amandla Stenberg herself, being interviewed alongside Hedlund, explained to the showrunner that the subject would become a talking point because nerds are gay.
		Pushing back against the actress, okay, first of all, no.
		Nerd is science.
unidentified		Geek.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You're talking about geeks!
unidentified		Stop ruining our words.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Uh, but no, in all seriousness, nerd typically referred to somebody who was good at academics.
		And geeks, a geek is someone who is overly excited about some cultural issue, right?
		So, you geek out.
		You're like, oh man, it's Hugh Jackman!
		You're geeking out, right?
		Wolverine, that's geek.
		Pushing back against the actress's excitement, Taylor responded to the clarification, well, some of the nerds are very not gay and are very threatened by gay stuff.
		Well, that's true, but in my world, nerds are gay.
		Dude, that's gay world, not nerd world.
		You are friends with a bunch of gay people, and some of them are nerds.
		That's it.
		Offering her actual response is, no, I don't think so, yet people have told me that it's the gayest Star Wars, and frankly, I'm into it.
		Okay, well, good luck when no one watches it.
		From there, Stenberg defended Hedlund's denial, observing, What?
		He's a robot!
		is so gay already. I mean, have you seen The Fits? What?
		We do like, look how gay this is, and then each other, a reference photo.
		Building upon the actor's anecdote, Edlin further left, and you're telling me that with a straight face that C-3PO
		is straight?
		He's a robot! He's a robot.
		I think it's canon that R-2D2 is a lesbian.
		These people are weird.
		I hate Star Wars so much!
		It's so dumb!
		I just despise Star Wars.
		It is the worst thing ever.
		Like, the original movies are great.
		And Battlefront 1, 2, the remix, fantastic!
		But everything they've made has been just... afterwards.
		Okay, fine.
		Shadows of the Empire is okay.
		And then you have Knights of the Old Republic.
		That was a great game.
		You know, there was a period where they really built some awesome Star Wars stuff.
		Knights of the Old Republic, too.
		Talk about a great game.
		That's a great game, by the way.
		And Jedi Knight 2 was fun.
		But it starts getting sillier and sillier.
		The prequel movies were a bit silly, and now we're just... It's a skin suit.
		I'm sorry, everybody.
		It's time for your funeral for Star Wars.
		I'll leave it there.
		Next segment's coming up at 8pm over at youtube.com.
