		Tonight's news broke that Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Iran
		in what they're claiming is an airstrike.
		Iran is blaming Israel.
		Israel has said nothing.
		The U.S.
		denies involvement, but there was another Israeli airstrike on Hezbollah, killing Fouad Shakur, which is another individual responsible for the attacks on Israel.
		So if I just say, many people believe, and I think the U.S.
		believes, Israel assassinated a Hamas leader, Iranian ally, who was in Iran, in Tehran, for the presidential inauguration.
		They assassinated a guy in Iran.
		Okay, so the question then becomes, uh, World War III, retaliation, look man, Iran's, I'm gonna, I don't know man, maybe it's a bit dismissive of me, but I think Iran will do nothing.
		Nothing visible, at least.
		There's always the potential for cyberattacks and other forms of retaliation that are less visible, but when it comes to that stuff, it's kind of like, what's the point, right?
		Now, the Ayatollahs vowed revenge, and there is fear that this will lead to an escalation of the war, but let's be real.
		The war is raging on.
		And it's not just Israel and Gaza.
		And that's the fascinating thing about the whole narrative.
		The narrative, of course, is always that it's just Israel and Gaza, but Lebanon, you've got Hezbollah, and you've got Iran deeply involved.
		This is expanding into a much larger war.
		You've got Iranian-backed proxy groups, militias.
		You've got Houthi rebels.
		The whole region is lighting up.
		Why?
		Man, we had a great conversation last night on Tim Cast IRL in the Super Chat portion when someone asked, someone said they would rather have Kamala Harris if it meant Israel would suffer, or something to that effect.
		I mean, maybe it's a little crass for me to describe it that way.
		They said if it got rid of America's parasite, they would withstand four years of Kamala Harris.
		Yeah, Kamala Harris is the machine behind expanding this war in the Middle East and making everything crazier.
		It's no surprise that under Donald Trump, no new wars, and wars were going away.
		So it's fascinating to me that people think that they're going to get some kind of, I don't know, defunding of Israel under Kamala Harris.
		But talk about it being America last!
		I hate Israel so much that I want Kamala Harris to be president!
		It's just illogical nonsense.
		We'll talk about this.
		A couple other stories.
		We'll take a look at the current election, who Kamala Harris's VP is going to be, and then we got a more cultural segment because, you know, we need them.
		We need them.
		We need them.
		Suicide booths.
		They're making them.
		They are quite lit.
		Futurama.
		I don't know how Futurama predicted this, but apparently there's a suicide booth and a woman is supposed to Die in it.
		Medical assistance in dying.
		And she ran away.
		I wonder why.
		So let's talk about the news, my friends.

	I think.
	It's good coffee.
	Everybody loves Appalachian Nights.
	Ian's Graphene Dream has been selling quite a bit.
	Now someone the other day said the flavor wasn't too strong.
	Well, I always must recommend.
	Make sure you're getting your coffee grounds to water ratio properly.
	Because I go to these restaurants, these diners, and they'll bring out coffee, and I can tell it's watered down.
	And I'm like, bro, you're giving me hot water.
	It's like, half.
	Half coffee.
	Just, you know, do a little less water and your coffee is much, much better.
	But, I tell you this, just make sure you get the ratio correctly.
	Because we keep hearing that Ian's Graphene Dream is actually the new favorite.
	Which would be surprising, Ian, coming in with this low acidity coffee and stealing the show.
	But it's low acidity for a reason.
	Apparently it's easier on your gut, that was the point.

	And let's talk about this first story here.
	So this is the big news.
	Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh is killed in Iran by an alleged Israeli strike.
	Threatening escalation.
	Threatening escalation is outright escalation, my friends.
	We have this from Daily Mail.
	They're outright saying it was.
	The headline they're running is Israeli airstrike.
	Now, they're trying to play the game where they put it in quotes.
	But come on.
	They say Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh spent his final hours attending the inauguration of new Iranian President Massoud Pazeshkian at a ceremony in Tehran before he was ruthlessly assassinated in a suspected Israeli missile strike.
	The Hamas political leader, 62, was seen flashing the peace sign and smiling as he mixed with Iranian dignitaries yesterday at the swearing-in ceremony.
	He then shared a meeting with Pezeshkian, is that Pezeshkian?
	Pezeshkian, am I getting it right?
	His first and only official talks with the new president before being killed, as well as Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who has since vowed to avenge Haniyeh.
	Video footage captured the moment Haniyeh spoke with Pezeshkian, as the pair shared an embrace before the cameras in a firm signal of the enduring ties between the Islamic Republic and the Palestinian group.
	Following his meetings, Haniyeh was accompanied by guards to his accommodation and Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps residents in the capital, where he was reportedly staying alongside Palestinian Islamic Jihad Secretary General Ziad Nakhala.
	Hamas sources told Saudi outlet Al Arabi al-Jadid.
	Sitting in an IRGC safe house surrounded by guards in the Iranian capital, Haniyeh likely felt completely secure with no inkling of his fate.
	Israel's defense forces are believed to have conducted a daring overnight missile strike on the building, killing the Hamas leader as he slept in his bed, though Nakhala is said to have escaped the blast.
	Now this is interesting to me.
	Because Iran is well known for air defense.
	One of the challenges the U.S.
	has long had with going to war or attacking Iran is that it's a mountainous country with a lot of anti-air.
	So the U.S.
	relies heavily on air superiority.
	You've got this mountainous country that can strike back.
	The fact that Israel was able to get what I'm assuming was a drone to fly overhead and strike this building, killing this guy?
	That's, that's pretty wild.
	I also want to just stress that's not the peace sign.
	It's the victory sign.
	And there's a difference, but people conflated the two, because after victory, there was peace, because you've crushed and destroyed your enemies.
	But sure, fine, call it the peace sign.
	Hani's assassination, confirmed by both Hamas and Iranian authorities, marks the most high-profile killing since October 7th, and could prove to be a tipping point in the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian groups.
	Yeah, I gotta say, my friends, we could be looking at a flashpoint at any moment, any moment, We could be in World War III.
	I don't know.
	Because this is not the first time Iran's been hit.
	It's not the first time war has expanded in the region.
	But I'll tell you this, my friends.
	This is what you get with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
	It was predictable, it was obvious, and the region is crumbling.
	Under Donald Trump, we have the Abraham Accords.
	Under Joe Biden, we have the verge of World War III.
	Not that I think Joe Biden's actually functional at this point.
	Kamala Harris is probably doing most of the work.
	But is anybody really surprised?
	You know, it's wild to me, and I'll stress this again.
	I mentioned this in the opening, in the intro.
	We periodically on TimCast IRL will get these superchats from people, and they say they would rather have Joe Biden or Kamala Harris if it means that Israel suffers.
	We've gotten maybe like four or five of these superchats over the past several months.
	Because Donald Trump says he's pro-Israel.
	We got a super chit the other day from someone who calls me controlled opposition because these people have a mental illness, and I mean that in the literal sense, I'm not trying to be mean, I mean that they are suffering from a delusional paranoid state.
	When you go online, and it could be, look, there's Trump derangement syndrome, that's why I call it derangement, where no amount of reality you show to these people will cure them of their Trump derangement.
	I believe the actual medical term is Trump Anxiety Disorder, where just the thought of Trump gives people anxiety and makes them lose their minds.
	But let's break this down.
	Derangement.
	What is derangement?
	It's when no logic that there is such hatred over one subject that an individual's judgment becomes clouded or fractured.
	So when I say Israel Derangement Syndrome, you can see a lot of people get really angry.
	And it's usually the people who are suffering from such an ailment.
	Because we've had guests on the show, critical of Israel, and other people critical of Israel can recognize the derangement and say, okay, yeah, fair point, that guy's nuts.
	When they just think everything is Israel.
	But I'll tell you this.
	By all means, criticize Israel.
	By all means, say the U.S.
	should stop funding Israel.
	By all means, say Israel is wrong.
	In their attacks on Gaza.
	By all means, call it a genocide.
	I don't care.
	My point is not to defend or protect Israel.
	My point is, there are people who are suggesting the U.S.
	should have Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as president because it's bad for Israel.
	It's not.
	Joe Biden and Kamala Harris represent the military-industrial complex, the establishment political class.
	They will redouble their funding of Israel.
	Sure, they may get rid of Netanyahu.
	But come on, baby.
	They are going to pump so much U.S.
	dollars into Israel, your head will spin.
	And then what's that?
	Donald Trump also says he's pro-Israel?
	Congratulations.
	Welcome to the United States, where they pump money into Israel no matter what.
	This idea that we'd be better off with Kamala Harris.
	It's just, that is derangement!
	The United States should suffer, the economy will crash, communists will take over the federal level, you'll get all this wackadoo nonsense in schools.

tim pool ▲ ● ▼		When it's not, that's derangement.
		The idea that someone would suggest Kamala Harris is in any way going to be bad for Israel is nuts!
		Under Trump, we had relative stability coming to the Middle East.
		We had the Abraham Accords.
		We had ISIS getting obliterated.
		No new wars.
		Withdrawal timeline for Afghanistan.
		Donald Trump negotiating with the Taliban.
		Whether you liked it or not.
		Joe Biden gets in, war, war, war, more war, escalation, escalation, and now we're looking at Iran saying Israel just assassinated a guy in their territory, which may be one of the most dramatic escalations we've seen in a long time, bringing about real fears of World War III.
		That being said, I'm not convinced because everybody keeps screaming World War III, but this is under Biden and Kamala.
		For what evidence am I to believe Donald Trump would do anything comparable?
		I don't know what to tell you, but I can tell you where we're currently.
		I will give you the news breakdown.
		We also have, uh, this is likely, this attack, the result, uh, it's a retaliation from the IDF.
		This is how war goes.
		The New York Post says, IDF shows rocket that killed 12 kids matches Iranian-made Hezbollah weapon.
		Sure enough, you then end up with Israel attacking Hezbollah and Iran.
		Surprise, surprise.
		That's war.
		We have this from The Economist.
		Israeli strikes in Beirut and Tehran could intensify a regional war.
		At the very least, they will delay talks over a ceasefire in Gaza.
		Now, I suppose the sad thing is, I think, I can't remember which side this is, I think it's Iran saying, there's no ceasefire.
		It's done.
		You've killed the negotiators.
		I don't think Israel wants a ceasefire.
		There's certainly a lot of conservatives and neocons on X saying, yeah, yeah, finish the job, finish the job.
		I'm not with those guys either.
		My attitude is, yeah, stop funding Israel and let's not be involved in it anymore.
unidentified		Why?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't know or care.
		Now, for many people we do like, you know, Ben Shapiro, of course, Will Chamberlain.
		Well, I shouldn't speak for Will, but I know that many of these more DeSantis types and neoconservative types, they want Israel to just wipe out Hamas.
		It's not about destroying Gaza, it's about ending Hamas.
		I say this.
		After all of the research I've done, I think that it's time we just not be involved, and I have no opinion on the matter because it's not this country.
		And I'm tired of us funding it.
		I'm tired of us being involved in all these foreign wars.
		They seem to be endless.
		They solve nothing.
		And you know what I like?
		I like when Donald Trump got in office, and I didn't like him at first, and I didn't vote for him.
		And then what do I see?
		The Abraham Accords.
		I was like, oh, that's actually pretty good.
		Dave Smith.
		His counterpoint.
		And I always bring up Dave Smith's counterpoint on the issue because Dave is a smart and honest man.
		And he's also funny.
		I like the guy.
		He said that the Abraham Accords actually opened the door for this conflict with Israel and Gaza because you marginalized Hamas.
		You started negotiating behind their backs.
		You've got Israel and Palestine.
		You've got Israel-Gaza.
		And there's an active conflict here with Hamas.
		And then Trump goes to Saudi Arabia, it goes to the Emirates, it goes to Israel, it goes to these countries, and starts negotiating a peace deal as if Gaza doesn't exist, undermining their position, resulting in an escalation.
		Well, I actually agree with Dave.
		I just disagree that it's our fault.
		And we're gonna negotiate peace.
		We are going to strive for peace.
		That's the only action we could take.
		The idea that we would not negotiate peace And it is unfair, I would love to have a longer conversation with Dave on the issue because he certainly can't rebut what I'm saying right now, but I do respect his opinion on the matter.
		My attitude is simply, we're going to negotiate peace with whoever is willing to accept it.
		Donald Trump was not wrong.
		The idea that because Hamas terrorists are threatening to blow up hospitals and attack children or tear down fences and go and raid villages, because that threat exists, we do not bow to terrorists and simply say, well, we're not going to negotiate peace then.
		Well, you know, I'd like to normalize economic ties between Israel, the Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and other Muslim nations, but there's a bunch of violent, crazy people who will attack us if we do, so let's just keep the greater war going.
		Not interested.
		I respect what Trump was working on, and it was Kushner leading that charge, but Donald Trump, he's a dealmaker, man.
		He's a dealmaker.
		There's not going to be an easy, straight path.
		There's no reality where we solve the Israel-Palestine problem and then start negotiating with other countries.
		I think Trump made a hard decision.
		I think he worked his administration towards that hard decision.
		But I believe it was the best we could get out of the region.
		Not to mention, Donald Trump, during his term, crushed ISIS.
		Oh, was the Deep State so pissed off about that?
		Let me tell you what.
		Because, you know, I want you to understand, my friends.
		You've got Syria.
		Align with Russia.
		And the Obama administration had their fingers crossed that ISIS would destabilize Syria.
		So the U.S.
		would sit back and watch.
		And just any minute now, Bashar al-Assad is going to get booted out of power.
		But he never did!
		Because before Hillary Clinton could come in and do anything about it, Making things worse, of course.
		Donald Trump gets elected and says, we're not doing this.
		We are not expanding this war.
		We're not playing this game.
		You are playing with fire.
		We are going to end this.
		The Caliphate.
		ISIS.
		We're going to shut it down.
	And he did.
	Incredible.
	Boy, were they salty.
	And then Trump said, why do we have troops in Syria?
	Get them out!
	And the machine lied.
	Lied to Trump about our troop levels, lied to you and me to exacerbate the conflict, and put a little pin in that so that way when Joe Biden got in office, they could say, war's back on the menu, baby.
	And of course, we get the Ukraine escalation.
	Russia was not attacking.
	You know why?
	This is what they say.
	They say, well, it's because Donald Trump was giving Putin everything he wanted.
	What, peace?
	Alright.
	So, here's where we begin.
	And I can only say this because I'm 38.
	We begin a long time before this, but the U.S.
	wanted to build a pipeline.
	I'll give you the very short version.
	It would have had to have run through Syria.
	Syria says no, because it would be a competition for Russia, and they're allied with Russia.
	Russia has a military base in Tartus, in Syria.
	So the U.S.
	wants this pipeline running through Syria into Europe to offset Russia's natural gas monopoly.
	This would effectively bring down energy prices in Europe and allow European expansion.
	Yeah, well, Russia was like, not interested, and Syria said, we're not going to help you undermine our ally.
	So then all of a sudden, conveniently, civil war erupts in Syria, and the U.S.
	is against Assad, saying he's a murderous dictator who gases his own people.
	ISIS forms and Obama's like, oh gee, oh no, look what's happened over there to our enemy who won't let us build a pipeline.
	Then Trump comes in and is like, I don't care, we're shutting it down.
	Vladimir Putin, there was conflict in the Donbass region, but under Trump, no war didn't expand.
	It actually started to diminish.
	It's fascinating because I was in Ukraine, end of 2013, beginning of 2014.
	I got to go to where they toppled the statue of Lenin and people were chipping away fragments of it.
	Someone took his head and his hand.
	There was real protest, real revolt, and when I was there, we saw the escalation of conflict in the Donbass region in the East.
	Russian-speaking individuals who are not happy with the ousting of Yanukovych, and felt like the U.S.
	was interfering.
	Then Trump gets elected.
	Then nothing.
	Vladimir Putin is like, Donald Trump is not encroaching on our borders.
	He is not expanding militaristically.
	He is not threatening us militaristically.
	We have no cause for war.
	And the response from the Democrats and the left was Trump is giving them, giving Putin what he wants.
	Is that not starting war?
	Because I want that too!
	Looks like it was a win-win for everybody.
	Then sure enough, we get a Joe Biden, and we get the war.
	We get the war that they were hoping for.
	So maybe, I'll tell you this, maybe we actually do end up with a Kamala Harris presidency.
	You know, How many people were like, Joe Biden can't win, this old dodder who can barely talk straight, his teeth were falling out during the debates, and then he won.
	Now, of course, the argument from the Trump supporters is, he didn't win, Trump won!
	I think it's important you understand the definition of winning.
	You can argue that Trump won an argument.
	I think so.
	I think he won the argument.
	I think Trump went to the American people and said, here's my argument, and they went, that's a good point.
	I like this guy.
	But we're not talking about winning an argument.
	We're talking about winning political power.
	Joe Biden won.
	He ended up in the White House.
	That's it.
	You can say Trump won, but I gotta tell you, the guy holding the trophy with everyone clapping and cheering, you might say he cheated.
	What does it matter?
	He's the one who got the prize money.
	That's the important thing to understand.
	As we enter escalating conflict, as we face down potentially World War III, When it comes to this election coming up in November, you can say it all day and night that Donald Trump's got the argument on his side, and he certainly does, because this is scary stuff.
	But that doesn't change the fact that we're talking about winning a game.
	You could be playing, look, you could play any game you want.
	And you can do your best, and you can practice all day.
	But if someone's going to be rules lawyering, Or engaging in loopholes and exploits that no one predicted because it's outside the spirit of the game?
	They're gonna win power.
	Or outright just blatantly cheating and hoping they don't get caught.
	How do you win against that?
	Be prepared, my friends, because the military-industrial complex does not just want to roll over lightly.
	Now, it does appear that they're not having a good go at things.
	You know what's really funny is that Donald Trump said he talked to Joe Biden after nearly dying In Butler, PA.
	And Biden said, why'd you turn your head like that?
	And it almost sounds like Trump called Biden.
	He was like, hey, Joe, you missed.
	And then Joe was like, you son of a why'd you turn your head like that?
	That's funny.
	No, I doubt it.
	I doubt it.

tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't know exactly what they talked about or why, but I will tell you, our best bet,
		our best bet for those of us who love this country, don't want to see the world burst into a ball of fire,
		is a Donald Trump second term.
		The fascinating thing is they try to lie and claim that Trump is the politician of World War III, when unsurprisingly, with Trump no wars, with Kamala and Biden wars.
		Now Biden of course is, you know, who knows what he's doing?
		He's gone.
		Kamala Harris is coming in.
		She's the war candidate.
		Unmarried women love war.
		This is where it's funny when they say, like, women... There was a viral post on Axe where someone was like, if women were in charge, there'd be no wars.
		And you hear this feminist talking point quite a bit when, historically, women have started more wars than men.
		And under Kamala Harris and the 72% of unmarried women who vote Democrat, that's the party of war.
		For whatever reason, I'm not interested, man.
		Not me, not me.
		So we have this from The Mirror.
		Russia and China could begin to slide into World War III in new axis of aggression.
		Oh, aggression!
		Well, we don't want to say evil just yet.
		Not just yet.
		We're not there.
		I love this.
		This is my favorite one.
		Indian Nostradamus names new date World War III is set to start and it's really soon.
		Exclusive Kushal Kumar has had several attempts at trying to figure out when World War III will start, and despite being wrong each time, he's back with another pun.
		Dude, I don't know that what happened in Iran is going to lead to World War III.
		I don't think Iran does anything.
		I don't think they're going to escalate, I mean, or retaliate in like a nuclear fashion or a serious war footing.
		Iran already fired missiles into Israel, okay?
		And then Israel fired back, and then Iran was like, I don't know what you're talking about, because they didn't want the escalation.
		Iran will saber-rattle, but they are weak, okay?
		It's hard to conquer their territory and shut down their government, but they ain't got much in terms of outward offense, so I ain't super worried about it.
		And, you know, not the first time.
		Donald Trump, was it Soleimani?
		Look, I don't see Iran taking any dramatic action.
		That being said, get ready for cyber attacks.
		I wouldn't be surprised if Iran uses subterfuge and cyber warfare to cause damage in retaliation and make it very difficult for us to monitor or catch.
		But I don't know why they wouldn't just always be doing that if that was the case, because the idea here with the retaliation would be to make the world publicly know they did it.
		But I love this Indian Nostradamus guy.
		I think we have another article right here.
		Here we go.
		New Nostradamus isn't backing down.
		Still predicts World War III is just days from now.
		Well that was June 14th.
		It's been a month and a half.
		Where we at, buddy?
		He dropped a bombshell.
		An Indian astrologer dubbed New Nostradamus is predicting the start of World War III in mere days.
		Now, Tuesday, 18, June 2024, has the strongest planetary stimulus to trigger World War III.
		Doubling down.
		On Thursday, Kumar rattled off a series of current, disturbing events to justify his claim.
		You see, the thing about these predictions is, like, you've got that guy, Alan Lichtman, who runs the Keys to the White House prediction system.
		It's his opinion!
		He's like, if the economy is good, then the incumbent wins.
		There's no incumbent.
		Well, then the incumbent party wins.
		And it's like, is the economy good?
		The metrics say so.
		I got a question for this guy.
		Are you saying that if the establishment publishes numbers to make it seem like the economy is good, or is it whether the public feels the economy is good?
		I gotta tell you right now, the general sentiment of the public is that the economy is no good, but he's still predicting Harris has the edge on this one.
		They just make up.
		They make it up.
		They look at what's going on and they say, this might happen.
		I'll tell you this.
	How about instead of saying, I fear we're on track for a civil war, how about I, you know, because I could say something like this, like, you had January 6th, you had a contested election, you had Texas v. Pennsylvania, you've had the Boston Globe reporting, I'm talking far-left extremists seizing territory in cities.
	the 2020 election, and when the Democrats lost, they advocated the West Coast states
	to seek from the Union.
	You then had, just more recently, the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
	Previously, the Summer of Love riots.
	You had the killing of Aaron Danielson.
	You've had Black Lives Matter running around shooting people.
	You've had the autonomous zones pop up in Atlanta, Minnesota, Portland, Seattle, where
	they literally killed people.
	I'm talking far-left extremists seizing territory in cities.
	Now, you add all those things together, and I'm like, dang.
	I mean, we are in a period of civil strife, no doubt.
	And if this escalation continues, we are facing potential civil war.
	And the rhetoric coming from politicians is getting way greater.
	You know what?
	I think I know what my problem is.
	When people are like, Tim, you crazy!
	Ain't gonna be no civil war!
	I should go...
	Oh, you're right.
	My logic be damned.
	I was drinking a chamomile tea, and when I finished it, I looked down at the bottom of the cup, and I could see the shape of Civil War.
	That's right, a premonition!
	Divine intervention.
	Logic be damned.
	For all the people that think all of these points are nonsense and don't add up to anything, fine!
	The stars told me!
	That's what this guy is doing, okay?
	He's like, I looked at the moon and it lined up with Jupiter and so based on the fact that Shots were fired from the demilitarized zone, and Israel has been in a conflict with Iran, ever escalating over the conflict in Gaza.
	Houthi rebels have been attacking ships in the Red Sea.
	Russia has invaded Ukraine and is now working on nuclear tests.
	I fear that we may be looking at World War III any minute now.
	Everyone goes, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's news, it's boring, and he goes, eh, but the moon told me.
	And they go, really?
	And then they publish a news article about it.
	If this guy just came out and wrote a blog where he's like, all of these geopolitical things could result in World War III, ain't nobody gonna care!
	So then he rubs his temples, says, I looked at the planets, and it says World War III, and they go, bang!
	Let's write it down.
	I love it.
	He cited a terror attack.
	He says, uh, referenced shots fired at the demilitarized zone in North and South Korea.
	He said the conflict in Israel has escalated as Hezbollah forces in Lebanon recently barraged rockets at the Jewish state in retaliation for the death of a commander.
	And this is a while ago, right?
	He added that June 29th might also be doomsday.
	The Nostradamus knockoff previously predicted June 10th, which came to pass.
	Dude, it is July 31st.
	Tomorrow is August.
	By the way, August is the only month without a federal holiday in it.
	I learned that from watching Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.
	Even if World War III doesn't come to pass in a matter of days, state officials warn it's a serious concern.
	Well, okay.
	Look, I'm sorry, dude.
	This image of... What is this?
	Some kind of suburb AI-generated town?
	Or is that a real city?
	I don't know.
	Mushroom clouds, and... Do ICBMs shriek like meteors?
	I don't know that they do.
	Anyway.
	Sorry, Nostradamus.
	Your prediction's wrong.
	World War III is not just days away.
	World War III already started.
	The Telegraph wrote June 6th.
	World War III has already started.
	Uh-huh.
	Alright, well, dude, I don't know what to tell you.
	If it already did start, then most of you are probably fine, I guess.
	Or not.
	I don't know.
	Did you buy emergency food or whatever?
	I love this stuff.
	I have another one, don't I?
	Oh, yeah.
	The second U.S.
	Civil War has already begun, says Common Dreams.
	Uh-huh.
	Look, man.
	You figure it out.
	Because it's like, if we're going to take the telegraph for what it's worth, granted it's commentary, World War III has already started.
	Did it?
	I suppose the question we should be asking is to look at World War I and the lead up to the conflict to determine when it may have already begun.
	Now in terms of the Second Civil War, and I'm not trying to make Civil War talk happen, I'm just pointing out that everyone predicts things are already going on, but I will say this, as it pertains to World War III and the Second Civil War, one of the most interesting points that many of you have heard 8,000 times is We all know the Civil War started.
	We agree academically, historically.
	It was 1861, the Battle of Fort Sumter, when Union forces refused to leave a military base in South Carolina.
	There was but a single death, and it was an accident.
	They weren't trying to kill each other.
	But there was a battle, right?
	However, at the time, nobody called it a Civil War.
	So the actual first bloody conflict, the Battle of Bull Run, the first Battle of Bull Run, the Battle of Manassas, is where people picnicked on hilltops because they were like, there's not gonna be a fight!
	Now hold on there a minute there, sir.
	According to history, we consider that to have already been in the Civil War.
	Fort Sumter kicked it off.
	But no one believed it was started.
	They all said, no, it's not begun.
	So when the battle started in Manassas, or when it was about to begin, Confederate forces and Union forces, people were picnicking like, there's not going to be a Civil War!
unidentified		Despite being in the Civil War!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So what I think makes more sense, when you see World War III has already started or whatever, It's a maybe.
		Maybe.
		So what would the catalyst be that we've missed and don't understand?
		I don't know.
		Honestly, I don't know.
		They may say October 7th started World War III.
		It has been almost a year.
		Crazy, right?
		But I do think it's important to understand that history is always condensed when you read it.
		And it's fascinating that people really don't understand the timelines of these things.
		So I've got every Life Magazine ever made.
		Not a hard accomplishment.
		You go to an antique store in West Virginia, you're gonna find a collection of like five copies of each.
		The first edition of Life Magazine was a bit harder to find, but we got one.
		It was a couple hundred bucks.
		And we've got one that I leave out on the counter for guests.
		It is the Life Magazine right after the U.S.
		bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
		And then a couple of them I pulled out are during World War II.
		And one of the most fascinating ones is before D-Day.
		Look at what they were saying and what people believed, and then align that with today, and it is truly a fascinating image.
		Before D-Day.
		I believe it's Life Magazine.
		I think it was.
		It might have been a different magazine.
		I think it was Life.
		Because I got too many.
		They were saying that the U.S.
		was sending troops and weaponry to the U.K.
		for defensive purposes.
		And they actually had pictures, and it's like U.S.
		forces defending the U.K.
		from invasion.
		We all know what the real purpose was.
		We were going to storm the beaches of Normandy and Omaha.
		We were going to go in, and we were going to lead an assault, an offensive, against the Germans.
		But the history books, they say that now, but back then the magazines did not.
		We didn't know exactly what was going on.
		So it's fascinating.
		If we're looking at everything happening now, we could be in it, or we could be dead wrong.
		Don't know what to tell you, my friends.
		What I can tell you is the media will give it to you every which way.
		Second Civil War has already started.
		That may be the case.
		I think, um...
		Steve Bannon said something like, a war to the knife or whatever, Rolling Stone got really mad about it, and it was a reference to bleeding Kansas.
		Before a civil war kicked off, there was fighting in Kansas and other territories over the expansion of slavery.
		And then ultimately a civil war.
		But they're seemingly unrelated.
		It wasn't that the conflict in Kansas bubbled up, expanded outward, and then collided in D.C.
		That conflict is happening.
		It was when Abraham Lincoln gets elected, several southern states, I believe it was seven, said, we don't trust you, and so we hereby dissolve bonds.
		We are seceding from the Union.
		I believe initially the, um, where was the capitals?
		Like, uh, was it Arkansas?
		Alabama?
		I can't remember which one.
		And then, uh, after Sumter and, uh, you know, this conflict, I think, I think it's after the Battle of Bull Run.
		Lincoln calls in 15,000 troops to be sent down to quell the rebellion, and that's when several other states flip.
		Virginia at first was like, nah, we're not, you know, we're not going to war or whatever.
		I could have my timeline screwed up on this one.
		You know, I've read quite a bit about it, but it's not like I read it every single day and know perfectly.
		But the general idea being that This thing happens in blocks and waves, and it develops.
		When we look back at history, most people just think the North and the South declared war on each other.
	They don't realize that there was voting.
	They don't realize, like, Virginia broke into two states.
	There was a lawsuit filed after the Civil War ended.
	West Virginia and Virginia shattered.
	The people in West Virginia joined the Union.
	Like, there was cross-sentiment.
	You had Southern states that were, like, 40% pro-Union.
	People don't realize this.
	Maryland was a slave state.
	So was Delaware.
	And Lincoln had state legislatures from Maryland arrested and created a suspension of habeas corpus zone from D.C.
	to, where was it, from D.C.
	to, I think, Philadelphia.
	So going through Maryland, you could just be arrested for any reason and locked up.
	And one guy did!
	They locked him up the whole time.
	And he said, screw you, I ain't doing nothing.
	And they, that's the way it goes.
	So I can't tell you what to expect.
	I can't tell you if we're in it or not.
	The media will tell you we are.
	The media will tell you we aren't.
	The media will tell you you're crazy.
	The media will tell you that you're not crazy.
	I guess, um... I don't know.
	Buy buckets of food?
	Freeze-dried food?
	Safeandreadymeals.com and things like that.
	And I'd stay away from cities.
	It's the best I could do.
	But we'll wrap up that segment there, and then we'll jump into the next segment we'll get in a little bit.
	Talking about Donald Trump, censorship, and interference in the election.
	Who Kamala Harris is going to choose?
	But in the meantime, we're going to jump over to your Super Chats, my friends.
	So let's grab your Super Chats, see what you have to say, and bring in the user commentary on what is currently going on in World War II.
	So, by all means, I'm trying to grab as many as I can for the next five or ten minutes, so if you want to make a point about why you think World War III, yes, no, for Israel, against Israel, how do you think the U.S.
	should handle it?
	Super chat and smash that like button, because as we all know, one like equals one fight, fight, fight.
	One like equals, I gotta put a space, fight, fight, fight.
	There you go, there's your poll.
	John Black says, howdy y'all!
	Ephesians 6.12.
	You should actually write it out, if you can.
	I don't know, maybe it's too long, but... Then I could read it.
	Craig Bragg says, I drink instant coffee.
	Y'all gotta make an instant coffee.
	Call it instant gratification or something clever.
	Yeah.
	You know, liberals are all about instant gratification.
	Maybe there's a joke there.
	Our Democrat blend.
	Instant gratification.
	Yeah, I love the—have you seen the images where Joe Biden is a lot taller than Jill and everyone's like, it's a different guy?
	My friends, Jill just may be wearing different heels.
	since his address pulling out of his campaign.
	Yeah, I love the have you seen the images where Joe Biden is a lot taller than Jill
	and everyone's like, it's a different guy.
	My friends.
	Jill just may be wearing different heels.
	Check that.
	I could be wrong.
	But the first thing I thought when they were like, look, Joe Biden's taller, I was like,
	I don't know, is Jill wearing heels?
	Like, is she wearing heels in one and not in the other?
	Oof, excuse me.
	Zoronis says, anyone else think that since the assassination of Trump failed, that they had to assassinate Hania to get the same war?
	And by they, I mean Deep State?
	Interesting.
	After the attempt on Trump's life, the media reported that Iran was attempting to kill Trump, which is weird.
	It makes no sense because nothing happened.
unidentified		They're just like, oh, by the way, Iran had a plot.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Nothing happened.
		Was the plan to have Iran kill Trump?
		Take a look at this.
		You've got the FBI coming out saying they may have found the shooter's social media.
		Which was posting anti-Semitic things.
		Was that going to be their play?
		He hated Israel.
		Iran backed him.
		Helped him with his planning.
		And then he killed Trump.
		Nikki Haley becomes the nominee.
		Biden v. Haley.
		Haley wins.
		MAGA crushed.
		Establishment neocons take back the Republican Party.
		They go to all the MAGA people and say, the man you loved was killed by Iran.
		And that's how they got their Kass's belly?
		Kass's belly?
		And with that failing, perhaps that's it.
		They then take out Haniyeh to force Iran's hand.
		And the U.S.
		can then say it was Israel that did it.
		Who knows?
		Samuel Rai says, Tim, did you just fall out of a coconut tree?
		When I lived in Miami, we had palm trees and they had coconuts on them.
		We just called them palm trees.
		Is there a different name for them?
		Is coconut tree a name for them?
		Y'all, it was crazy.
		The spot in Miami that we had, there's probably like a couple thousand coconuts littering the side of the yard.
		I'm not kidding.
		It was a five acre property and there was only a couple of palm trees, but it was nuts.
		The whole side of the yard was just covered with probably a thousand plus coconuts.
		And, like, most of them just, like, rotted and falling apart.
		And they were a couple of- they take a long time to grow, too, so it's like, whoever owned the property, because we were renting it, they just let the coconuts fall down and brushed them to the side.
		Man, we- we actually- I think- how did we get them down?
		Did we shoot them with an arrow or something?
		I don't remember what we did.
		But they had very little coconut water in them.
		They weren't very good.
		They weren't very good.
		No- no disrespect to the coconut, it's just they probably were too young.
		Let's go!
		Go out and longboard.
		That's a good name.
		Says, can we just stop spending money outside of the USA?
		We are struggling here.
		We need help.
		We need healing here.
		Screw everywhere else.
		Let's make America great.
		Southern Institute of Firearm Training in Tennessee.
		Come train.
		Shout out.
		There you go.
		The Jim says, look, I'm not in favor of getting involved in the Israel-Palestine situation, but I'm not sad for Hamas.
		If you pulled an October 7th on the U.S., I think your country should become past tense.
		Who was it on Fox?
		Was it Jim?
		Jim Hansen?
		Who was it?
		Let me make sure I get this right.
		Because it was really funny.
		Yeah, it was Jim.
	I think it was Jim.
	Jim, was that you?
	When he said that, uh, I think he said Israel, but he said, uh, they returned Hania to ambient temperature.
	And, um, I thought that was a very clever way of saying he is no longer alive.
	Ambient temperature.
unidentified		Woo!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Just Say Something says, does this mean Tim has Palestinian derangement?
		I will stress once again for all of you, my friends, what does derangement mean?
		Derangement is when your soul is consumed by one idea because all you do is, well, that's just it, right?
		But I believe it's because if there are people who go online and they only read one thing and they look for what they want, they want their confirmation bias, That's a derangement.
		They are not thinking logically.
		They're not thinking clearly.
		We had a guy on the show and someone called in the Members Only program and asked about the opioid crisis in West Virginia.
		Fentanyl.
		And said they had family members who have died and they're wondering if it's getting worse and what we think about it because we're here in West Virginia.
		And our guest, within 30 seconds, managed to turn the conversation into Israel.
unidentified		And I was just like, what?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		It was an amazing, and this is, I'm sorry, that's Israel derangement, okay?
		By all means, you can find a country's connection through economics or other means.
		And Israel certainly is, as an ally of the United States, deeply involved in a lot of the security state stuff.
		But if someone's asking you about on-the-ground fentanyl crisis stuff, how you turn the conversation into Israel, And then I said this to him, I was like, you understand this man asked about the fentanyl crisis in West Virginia, and you've turned the conversation within 30 seconds into a conversation about Israel's security and cyber warfare.
		You can understand why people would say, you're deranged, right?
		Like, that is not normal.
		Like, can you dissociate yourself from that one thing?
		Hey, I get mad about, like, I don't know, drag shows with kids in them.
		If it was literally the only thing, could you imagine if I did a show where I was like, THE REASON WE'RE FACING WORLD WAR 3, and then I went on to like blame drag shows or whatever?
		Yeah, you'd be like, that's a little nuts.
		Or how about this?
		Someone's like, Tim, I'm very concerned about what's happening in Iran.
		Hania's death could escalate things into war.
		And then imagine if I went, Well, you know, the thing about this conflict is, of course, the United States, they really want this conflict.
		They want war with Iran.
		And the people at the highest level of government in the U.S.
		are looking for ways to expand their power militarily.
		And as you know, many of these companies that are funding war have gone full diversity, equity, and inclusion.
		They're as woke as they can be.
		Many of them actually supporting drag shows.
		Now, we had a drag show in West Virginia.
		There was a local theater.
		You'd be like, stop!
		Stop!
		Stop!
		What?!
		Okay, that's derangement.
		I can separate subject matters and talk about that.
		Sure, we can make interrelation.
		My favorite thing ever was, back in the day, we had a chat group.
		This was like eight years ago.
		And the purpose of it, it was open to the public, and it was like, hey everybody, if you have news stories you want to talk about, and then we could go over them and I could record videos on it.
		And I figured it was like our decentralized newsroom.
		And we deleted it.
		We got rid of it.
		Because people would come in, And then they'd be like, they'd be talking, they'd say, did you see what Joe Biden said?
		Or, you know, this is during the Trump era.
		They'd be like, did you see what, you know, Obama and Clinton are saying about Trump today?
		Do you see what the, you know, the deep state, blah, blah, blah.
		And then someone would be like, what are you guys up to right now?
		Someone else would be like, nothing, just going out for a slice of pizza.
		And then another guy would go like, oh wow, pizza.
		What's the craziest pizza you've ever had?
		And the other guy would be like, you know I've had Chicago pizza once, I'm not from there, but I thought it was pretty crazy.
		And then the guy would go, I've had pizza in Israel once.
		And the next guy would go, ugh, Israel?
		Can you believe it?
		And then they'd just start talking about Israel, and I'd be like...
		Okay, you're nuts.
		You've lost your mind.
		And then I actually, at a certain point, banned people.
		This guy, if you look at his chat history, every other post is Israel.
		And in between, it's not mentioning the word Israel, it's talking about the Middle East.
		And I was like...
		Dude, you're spamming, okay?
		If people are in a conversation about politics in the United States, Mexico, Fast and Furious, China, and then you keep trying to make them talk about Israel, like, I'm gonna have to stop ya.
		And it's like, time out for one, talk about Israel when Israel's in the news, but don't just force the conversation.
		Israel Derangement Syndrome is a real thing.
		It's like, so, would I have Palestinian- I don't talk about Palestine at all?
		Never!
		Never.
		The issue of Israel and Palestine, when I do talk about it, it's in the news, like today.
		And then we could talk about Ukraine, we could talk about China, we could talk about Sudan, we could talk about Afghanistan, we could talk about Iraq, we could talk about Iran.
	There are many different countries in different regions that are facing mass funding from the United States, expansion of military power, genocide, literal.
	I'm not making a political argument about Israel.
	I'm saying there's a bunch of different subjects you could talk about, but for some reason, there are people who just will not shut up about Israel.
	And I will stress this one more time.
	Feel free to criticize Israel whenever you want.
	Criticize all of their actions.
	They're in the news constantly with the war going on.
	I am specifically referring to people who think literally everything revolves around Israel.
	They would prefer Kamala Harris as president because they hate Israel.
	And Trump praised Israel.
	And I'm just like, this is derangement.
	But we'll read some more Super Chats.
	Fox McCloud says, Egypt should take in Gazan civilians.
	Of course they should, but they won't.
	Mike says, Ed Grogan, you're talking about Erdogan, two days ago said Turkey may declare war to Israel.
	What do you think will happen after this move from Israel?
	I mean, no idea.
	Turkey is an interesting country because I believe they are NATO.
	Correct me if I'm wrong, Turkey is in NATO, isn't it?
	Turkey joined NATO in 1952, but they're very much, like, on the other side of these things as it pertains to conflict in Israel.
	Nicholas Peloso says, Tim, the U.S.
	relies on air supremacy, not air superiority.
	So you're saying the U.S.
	relies on dominating and owning airspace, period.
	Is that the difference?
	James Tiberius Kirk, whoa!
	The captain, James T. Kirk.
	When someone punches you in the face, Tim, do you stop to negotiate with them?
	If you initiate an unprovoked war, expect your adversary to finish.
	Uh, I'm not a fan of that analogy because, uh, yes.
	You do.
	Okay, so let's break this down.
	I'm at a bar, okay?
	I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.
	First, words are exchanged.
	Me, personally, I'm going to do everything I can to avoid confrontation or conflict.
	And so that means I'm going to be like, if somebody's got words for me, I'll be like, dude, no beef.
	Don't care.
	Apologize for any slight.
	I'm going to go over here.
	You learn this in, I learned this at like eight years old, taking Taekwondo class.
	The fight you win is the fight you don't get in.
	And MMA fighters, people who fight will tell you, like, you want to avoid the fight.
	If you have to fight, you want to win the fight.
	But if we got to that point where someone punched me in the face, let's say I'm at a bar, and someone punches me in the face.
	I'm going to consider a few things first.
	Depending on the strength of the strike or whatever.
	I'm going to consider whether or not this is—we are facing with an escalation, and I don't care about your view of honor and your emotional reactions.
	My concern is, if we escalate this fight, what will the result be, and what do I get from it?
	If someone punches me in the face, and they show, as they advance toward me, they will not stop, then defensive action will be administered.
	And I will do what I have to do to stop that threat.
	If someone punches me in the face, and then puts their hands down, and says, have you had enough?
	My response is probably gonna be something like, I didn't want any in the first place, but I'm not gonna fight, even if you hit me in the face, because I don't care.
	I don't play emotionally in these situations that can result in death, destruction, or personal financial liability.
	You're gonna get a lot of emotional dudes being like, no, you gotta hit him back, you can't let someone hit you, and I'm gonna be like, dude, I'm doing math.
	Okay?
	I'm getting into fights only when I absolutely have to.
	I'll tell you why.
	Because the story I've told many times was that when I was a kid, my mom worked at a car dealership, and a guy had choice words for another guy's wife, and that guy got mad and they got into a fight, and one guy got hit, fell back, hit his head, and died.
	And the guy who hit him went to prison for murder.
	It's just not worth it.
	The question is, who benefits?
	What do you gain?
	So, if someone punches me in the face, usually, 90% of the time, they've started a fight, and it's likely going to continue.
	You'll have to defend yourself.
	I'm not suggesting that you're just going to be like, whoa!
	But there are circumstances where you certainly do negotiate.
	Like, if I'm at a bar, before we even get to that point, I would leave.
	If there's someone causing problems, when I'm driving on the road and I see a car swerve, I speed past them.
	I'm like, I was driving on the road the other day, and there was a tractor-trailer swerving, and I said, okay.
	So I went 15 miles over the limit, zoomed past him, and said, that guy's gonna be in my rearview mirror.
	I'm not gonna be anywhere near that guy.
	You choose your battles, you allocate your resources properly, and you plan for the future.
	You ask yourself, what is to be gained?
	Some guys might be thinking, I got honor, and I'm not gonna let someone do that to me.
	And I'm just thinking, that man is meaningless, does nothing.
	But I'll put it this way.
	For me personally, much different for the rest of you.
	I go out and someone punches me in the face.
	Let's say it's abruptly.
	I'm not just thinking about my honor and integrity.
	I'm thinking about I run a company.
	I've got, we've got 40 to 50 employees and contractors.
	They rely on me to do my show and to do my job.
	Should I increase my risk by engaging with this person or should I leave and accept someone hit me and just try to keep going about my life so that I don't put other people at risk?
	I consider this when I'm dealing with situations where I could get sick, right?
	Like I tell people, if you're sick, don't come to work.
	And then you've got people who come here being like, no, no, I can't miss work.
	And I'm like, dude, you don't understand.
	If you get me sick and I can't do the show, we lose a lot of money.
	So ultimately, you have to ask yourself, what matters?
	Honor, integrity, emotion, logic, et cetera.
	And all these things play a role.
	For me, a fight only matters when you have to fight.
	You don't want to get into a fight with someone if you don't have to.
	If they start a fight, and the threat is done, and you can tell the threat is over, then perhaps you actually can negotiate.
	No violence.
	At the same time, I am not saying, because people are going to be like, yeah, but then you're letting them walk all over you, now they're going to think they can do whatever they want.
	No, no, no.
	My point is this.
	And that's why I said 90% of the time it's probably not the case.
	Only when the threat is resolved.
	If someone hits you, and the threat is not resolved, then you have to defend yourself.
	To stop the threat.
	And that's the legal criteria for it.
	But I'll say it again one more time.
	I'm thinking about this mathematically.
	I don't care about your perception of emotion, honor, whatever you want to call it.
	I'm thinking about how do I get from point A to point B?
	The example that I gave to the Occupy Wall Street people way back in the day, These people demanded that they go protest in the street.
	And I'd say, like, when the ninja was targeting the feudal lord, do you think he walked to the front gate, knocked on the door, and said, I want to explain my grievances to you so that you understand and that my emotions are satisfied?
	No, they certainly didn't do that.
	They dress up like a servant, but how could they?
	They're an honorable, trained, warrior-class individual.
	Why would they dress like a lowly servant?
	To win.
	And then they would walk in, shaking, and looking all feeble, carrying the sake for the feudal lord, and then they'd rip their robes off, pull out their, uh, what is it called, uh, tonta, or tonta, or whatever?
	They'd pull out their smaller blade, assassinate the feudal lord, and then they would jump out the window, throw, uh, makibishi, caltrops, on the ground.
	It didn't matter what anyone thought, it mattered that they won.
	So in this regard, you win when you don't fight, you minimize damage, and only when you truly have to do you fight, do you escalate conflict.
unidentified		But you do you, just follow the law.

		James Tiberius Kirk then says, Salty Cracker is greater than Tim, Salty Army Unite.
		You're entitled to your opinions good sir, but I appreciate you giving me $10 and being here in the chat to watch.
		You are certainly always welcome to like other streamers more than me, but I do appreciate you are watching me at any rate.
		I will take being the second best streamer if it means you still watch my show.
		The Emperor says, Tim, the U.S.
		is now starting to move troops and munitions to Finnish bases.
		Look at the new defense cooperation agreement.
		Interesting.
		Tim Crespi says, you think World War III will evolve into Islam versus the West?
		I don't.
		Because, uh, I think Saudi Arabia... Well, actually, no, I don't know.
		I don't know for sure.
		There's an interesting point there.
		I don't know that China's gonna align with Islam, though.
		I mean, you look at what's going on with the Uighur Muslims.
		So it's tough.
		Anthony Ash says, Tim, you keep saying all they do is kill, steal, and destroy.
		That's what the devil and his minions do.
		Can you see the similarities?
		Who is they, though?
		Like, in that sentence we were referring to.
		Caden says Time Magazine is actually printing the Trump photo.
		That is correct, and we did talk about this.
		Time Magazine said they're doing multiple editions, and so I am going to go out and buy that magazine, and I am going to get it—I want to buy the magazine, and I want to get it graded and sealed.
		Like, that is going to be vacuum-sealed.
		That photo of Donald Trump, that is history, my friends.
		Skyler Pearson says, Tim, my friend, just want to send you some money because I appreciate everything you do.
		I said I can relate because lately I've been thinking about combustication as a welcome vacation from the burdens of the planet Earth, like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3D.
		I was actually just listening to Pardon Me.
		It's a good song.
		I was playing Morning View as well.
		Incubus is great!
		One of my favorite bands of all time.
		Such great morning view.
		Man, Make Yourself.
		Make Yourself is a great song.
		Hey, let's do this, my friends.
		Let's talk about Donald Trump censorship and political manipulation.
		Donald Trump slams Facebook, Google for censorship after assassination attempt search results omitted, images deleted.
		Let them know we are all wise to them.
		We'll be much tougher this time.
		Now, the narrative is that Kamala Harris is filling stadiums.
		She is.
		For real.
		And that this is the end for Trump.
		She's now gonna come in.
		Maybe.
unidentified		Maybe.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You think they don't got a shadow campaign set up for this?
		You'd be wrong.
		And you can think whatever you want about Donald Trump.
		But they're doing everything in their power to stop this man.
		The man nearly died.
		So yeah.
		But I wonder.
		I truly do wonder.
		Because you got that story from O'Keefe Media Group.
		Where a DNC... What's the guy's position?
		I don't remember his position.
		He said Kamala can't win.
		Kamala can't win.
		He's right.
		Kamala can't win.
		So you know what they're going to do?
		They're going to hobble Donald Trump.
		That's how they play.
		Donald Trump took aim at both Google and Facebook on Tuesday, after both tech giants suppressed or censored information regarding the assassination attempt against his life.
		A search feature on Google reportedly removed results for the attempt on his life.
		Facebook forced users to delete an iconic photo of Trump just after the attempt, with fists raised and face bloodied.
		Trump Truthed!
		Facebook has just admitted that it wrongly censored the Trump attempted assassination photo and got caught.
		Same thing for Google.
		They made it virtually impossible to find pictures of anything about this heinous act.
		Both are facing big backlash over censorship claims.
		Here we go again.
		Another attempt at rigging the election.
		Go after Meta and Google.
		Let them know we are all wise to them.
		We'll be much tougher this time.
		I want to add some context to this story that I think may worry many of you.
		And let's see if I can pull this one up.
		We've got a good old SCNR here.
		And we had a story last night.
		Let me see if I can find it.
		Oh, man.
		Oh, you know what I should do?
		Oh, here we go.
		Secret Service sniper warns of another possible assassination attempt within 30 days.
		Because we should all expect another attempt to happen before November.
		This was an email sent by a counter-sniper, outraged over what happened to Trump, warning it could happen within 30 days and we should expect another before November.
		The email was deleted.
		Donald Trump says they're censoring him.
		Let them know we are all wise to them.
		We will be much tougher this time.
		Will we?
		If they really are playing these games, and they really did, and by they I mean establishment, political forces, military-industrial complex, intelligence agencies, the powers that be as it were, wouldn't they try another attempt on Trump's life?
		They go to mention in the article, the assassination attempt, Cory Komprator, Facebook claimed it was an error, and that they were initially trying to censor doctored images, and this one got roped up into it.
		Google, however, was accused of election interference, and Google claimed, because we don't allow political violence searches, which is clearly a lie, because if you type in assassination attempt on, you get all these stories.
		Lenin, Gerald Ford, Roosevelt, William Seward, Bob Marley, Reagan, seemingly no issue.
		During the 2020 election cycle, Facebook, Twitter, and Google were all found to have been censoring and suppressing content that was negative for Joe Biden.
		And that's currently happening right now.
		Let me see if I can duplicate these results.
		So many people have been pointing out that if you search for Donald Trump... Holy!
		No joke?
		Here you go.
		I searched Donald Trump on Google.
		Donald Trump, 45th U.S.
		President.
		Top stories.
		Kamala Harris challenges Donald Trump to debate.
		Kamala Harris wipes out Trump's lead.
		Trump issues retort to campaign Harris.
	That's fine.
	That's a Trump lead story.
	Harris issues debate.
	Trump flipped.
	Okay, there's a Trump one.
	There's a Trump one.
	That's fine.
	Many people are pointing out that when you search for Donald Trump, it gives you Kamala Harris news.
	Well, it certainly does.
	It certainly does indeed.
	The Post Malino says that Trump leads Kamala by four points nationwide in a Harvard-Harris poll, but I don't really care all that much about that.
	I'm more concerned about the real clear politics polling average.
	And I also got to admit, I don't care about this either!
	Ladies and gentlemen, we are in unprecedented times, okay?
	We are no longer in this period where we can look at polls and make any kind of reasonable determination.
unidentified		Trump nearly died!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I love that Trump's got the bandage off now after two weeks, and they're like, how did his ear heal?
		If he was really shot, how did his ear heal?
		And I'm like, humans have this thing where their skin regenerates within reason.
		You may not be aware of that, but they're actually arguing that Trump's ear could not have healed.
		Take a look at this.
		Real clear politics average.
		Harvard-Harris, Trump is up four points.
		Reuters and Morning Consult have Harris up one point.
		Then you've got Trump up two.
		You've got Rasmussen with Trump up seven.
		That may be wishful thinking, but I kind of believe it.
		All in all, in aggregate, Donald Trump against Kamala Harris, up two points.
		I'm going to tell you, my friends, I am not convinced that Kamala Harris will even be the nominee.
		But let's take a look at what matters.
		First, I want to pull up 270ToWin.
		It's a fun website, we love 270ToWin, and make sure that we reset this map, because this is the current map they have, and it shows Republicans with 251 electoral votes, Democrats 226, but it's all meaningless now.
		It's all completely meaningless because Joe Biden dropped out of the race and the polling is nothing.
		So let's do this.
		Arizona.
		Trump is up 4.2 according to the RealClearPolitics average.
		So you've got, you know, going back to the earlier in the month, I don't know if Trump plus 8 matters all that much.
		So it's hard to say.
		Do we want to go just by the latest polls or by the aggregate when the polling data is, like, Joe Biden was just the nominee.
		I don't know.
		What do you do?
		You know what I mean?
		I want to make sure I get the exact date.
		When, uh, when was the exact date that Joe Biden dropped out?
		It was the 21st.
		Okay.
		So taking a look at this, when you've got Hill Emerson after the 21st and morning consult, I don't know if plus 4.2 is fair.
		I would say plus 8 and plus 6, those are pre-Joe Biden dropout, so I don't want to use them.
		So we could just put Trump at plus 3.
		Simple.
		Arizona, that's red.
		Let's try Nevada.
		Nevada, we only have the Harris poll after, so we don't have a good aggregate, so let's give Nevada to Kamala Harris.
		And I think, I think we should, and some people might not like that, but I'm not, we're gonna do it.
		Wisconsin.
		Wisconsin looks like you've got a tie.
		It looks like it's gonna go Harris plus one.
		You've got three polls after Harris joined the race.
		A tie, Trump up one, Harris up two.
		If you break it down, she has the slight edge.
		They give Trump the edge with 0.2 only because of pre-Joe Biden dropout.
		So this means that Wisconsin, Harris.
		It's not looking good for Trump so far.
		What else do we got?
		Michigan is up next.
		Right now, Harris is up 11 points in Michigan.
		Okay, they're giving Michigan to Kamala Harris.
		For whatever reason, Michigan is going Democrat.
		And already, you are in, it's getting dark right there, Pennsylvania.
		This will be interesting.
		Donald Trump is the clear winner across the board in every poll.
		No question, Trump takes Pennsylvania.
		That puts Trump at 281 with current polling.
		Now, I want to make sure we get it all right, but I don't think we need anything more than this.
		If we go to North Carolina, Trump is the winner in North Carolina.
		We give him that.
		Georgia, Trump is the winner in Georgia.
		We'll give him that.
		And that's it.
		Right now, based on current polling, even with Kamala pulling ahead in some of these states, Donald Trump is still projected to win, as of today, with 281 electoral votes.
	So my friends, I ask you this.
	When a Secret Service sniper says, we should expect another attempt before November, they swapped in Kamala Harris.
	She has improved in some areas.
	And I think I was being generous in how I tracked that polling, because in some instances, like one poll, and there's no real aggregate because we don't have the data, Trump still wins.
	But my friends, that's Trump winning the argument.
	When they go to a regular person and say, who do you who do you want to vote for?
	And that regular person says Trump.
	And they say, OK, we'll put it down for Trump.
	That means nothing, nothing when it comes to ballot harvesting, when it comes to illegal immigrant voting, should that be a scenario, nothing when it comes to fraudulent ballots, should that be something that it comes to.
	Voting rule changes?
	We have no idea.
	So I tell you this, if you sit back and you think Trump's won because I show you these polls or whatever, you lose.
	Because let's play this game.
	Let's do this.
	Let's go back, uh, Michigan.
	That was a big hit for Kamala.
	They're saying, Kamala, I'm sorry, dude.
	This poll is wrong.
	Just flat out wrong.
	There's no way Kamala is up 11 points in Michigan, but we'll be nice.
	We'll let her have it.
	You take a look at, uh, let's go to Nevada.
	Nevada, we've got only one poll.
	So let's go back to Arizona.
	Let's say this.
	I'm not going to count Insider Advantage and PPP because those were before Biden dropped out.
	So let's say we've got, from 722, Hill Emerson and Bloomberg Morning Consult, giving Trump a plus three.
	Let's say that, uh, let's do some math.
	Trump had, what, 75 million?
	To Joe Biden's, uh, what did he have, 81 million?
	81 million votes.
	How are they thinking about getting them?
	So we're looking at, what, like an 8%?
	Is that about 8%?
	So that'd be, yeah, that's about 8% advantage based on, let's call it shenanigans.
	Let's say that you believe it was shenanigans. 8%.
	Shift.
	Okay, well, Harris wins Arizona, then.
	No question.
	Easily.
	The margin's too slim.
	Let's take a look at, uh, what else do we have?
	At this point, with that shift, I think Harris is gonna win everything.
	Michigan, of course.
	Pennsylvania, Trump's up 2.7.
	Nah, they got shenanigans in Pennsylvania, we all know it.
	Uh-oh!
	Now the Democrats win.
	Only state they need.
	This could be the electoral map.
	Let's, I mean, If they win Pennsylvania and Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, of course I'm giving them all these states.
	But again, shenanigans.
	Interestingly though, if it were Joe Biden, Trump was winning New Jersey.
	Can you believe it?
	This was the, like, let me show you the Biden map.
	This is absolutely hilarious.
	This is why they had to get rid of the Oh, my God.
	Here you go.
unidentified		331.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This was the map under Joe Biden.
		Oh, am I getting something wrong?
		What am I missing?
		No, I think I got everything right.
		Oh, Virginia was competitive, too.
		That's right.
		It was 344.
		Talk about that.
		Wow.
		So, do you think they stop here and simply just say, well, Trump's gonna win, so we give up?
		They bring in Kamala Harris.
		And what can we expect from that?
		They're coming out and claiming that she's doing really well.
		You've got people saying, no, no, no, no, ignore the bump in the polls, ignore the stadiums, it's the honeymoon phase.
		The honeymoon phase is after the conventions, which is in a couple weeks.
		If she maintains this, she wins.
		And you'll say, but Tim, nobody voted for her, she's despised, basically.
		She's not the preferred candidate of anybody, she's never got a single vote, and I'm just like, uh-huh, yeah, it's called shadow campaign.
		What did you think?
		Did you think they were going to sit back and just let Trump win?
		He almost got shot in the face.
		It grazed his ear.
		Some people say he got shot in the face.
		Well, you can say he got shot in the head, but it grazed his ear.
		And I think the context is fair.
		You know, he took a bullet, narrowly died.
		I do not see a scenario For the powers that be, sit back and say, well, they got us.
		No, I think these are people who are deranged and they will burn this country to the ground and they will tell you they did if they have to.
		If they make another attempt on Trump, And they fail.
		I would not be surprised if this country gets to the point where you actually have prominent members of the intelligence agencies coming out publicly stating, my name is so-and-so, we organized this, we have to do something now.
		And what do you think would happen?
		So it's funny, I don't know if you guys have watched The Boys on Amazon.
		They're at the end of season three, I think it was, Homelander, who they decided to make Trump, and it's so cringe.
		The first seasons were good.
		It was like superhero politics, and they were just kind of like, you know, narcissists.
		Then they decided to make everything just overtly political.
		But anyway, at the end of season three, Homelander is at a rally.
		He's basically wearing the American flag and everyone, he's like Trump.
		And then some guy calls him a fascist and throws a water bottle, hitting his kid in the face.
		So Homelander, who's effectively Superman, laser beam eyes the guy's face, killing him.
		And then everyone cheers.
		And the criticism from the left, as they mock these ideas, is to be like, see, that's what you guys are.
		You'd cheer if Trump did this.
		They should look in a mirror.
		And they did this because Trump said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue, he'd still get votes.
		He's a funny guy, huh?
		If the deep state came out right now and said that they were behind the assassination attempt, I mean, like, some intelligence, high-ranking intelligence guy, went on TV and said, here's who I am, it was me and my men from our office, we were behind this, we have no choice, we must stop Donald Trump, the stake, the state, the world is at stake, if we do nothing, the end is nigh, I assure you, these Democrats would cheer.
		They'd go on social media and be like, it's on.
		We know this because many social media personalities and journalists went around and asked people after the assassination what they thought, and many of these people lamented that the shooter missed.
		People have begun losing their jobs because they're posting online that they wanted the shooter to succeed.
		Tenacious D is over Jack Black and Kyle Gass because Kyle Gass says he wished the shooter wouldn't miss next time.
		I'm not saying everyone in this country would cheer, but a lot of Democrat personalities, it would be just like Homelander in The Boys, if the intelligence agencies came out and said, we have done this, we have done everything to stop Trump, and we will do whatever it takes now, mark my words, you would get Democrats cheering.
		Posting videos being like, yeah!
		I'm not saying literally every Democrat.
		A lot of them would be like, this terrifies me.
		But I wonder, if Trump is not stopped, especially after an assassination attempt, do we get to that point where right before the election, or let's say this, Trump wins the election.
		You know my friends, the Democrats say January 6th was bad.
		They say January 6th was an insurrection, a dark day for our country.
		Well, I'll tell you this.
		The leftist riots have been substantially worse across the board, with substantially more dead.
		I mean, like, I think the only people who died on January 6th were Trump supporters.
		The media lied and claimed cops died.
		That wasn't true.
		During the Summer of Love riots, you had, I think, about 30, depending on the way it's calculated, it was initially reported like 32 deaths.
	I think they brought the number down to, like, 24.
	But that's just media calculations.
	And it's because some people didn't die as, like, no one who was riding through a brick and then hit someone in the head and killed them.
	But it was like, during the riots, a guy was robbing a store and someone shot him.
	Things like that.
	If the Democrats lose to Donald Trump in November, they will make January 6th look like an actual summer of love.
	There will be mass riots, it will be all over the cities, and they will then, I wonder, if it's at that point, when the deep state loses, and the machine says outright, Trump is the president, do these people just come out and say, it was us, and we've decided to lead the resistance?
	Because let me pull this story up.
	Let's see, here we go.
	Ex-FBI honcho McCabe.
	Says Intel community members scared of being jailed by Trump may flee the country.
	So if Trump wins, what do these people do?
	What do you think they're doing now?
	I hope, I beg and I pray, Trump wins, gives us a marginally good presidency, the cities take care of any unrest, Trump does not get involved, there's no insurrection act, there's no National Guard, I think we'll get some deportations.
	I don't think we'll get mass deportations.
	We'll get some peace agreements.
	I'm hoping for that stability.
	I'm hoping that a second Trump administration will be better than, but comparable to the first.
	Meaning, if they don't weigh him down with ridiculous claims of being a Russian spy, and you end up with marginally good economic policy, marginally good de-escalation of war, but still war, but no new wars.
	We're not gonna get this pie-in-the-sky Donald Trump to come in and arrest everybody, that's not happening.
	Military tribunals or whatever, none of that is happening.
	And it's always funny that people are like military tribunals, like which tribunal is like with like three judges and they bring the person in or whatever.
	That's what I hope for.
	What I fear is that Trump gets elected and deep state Democrat establishment forces carry through with their threats they had in 2020 of pushing the West Coast to secede from the Union, destabilizing this country, exacerbating conflict and unrest in the streets, and causing chaos in this country.
	I hope for peace and stability and relatively tame, relatively tame outcomes.
	But honestly, you know, I gotta tell you, They tried to kill Donald Trump.
	And what do I mean by that again?
	I want to stress, they, as in, it wasn't just some random crazy guy.
	I don't know who it was.
	But you do not have, in any real world, a 20-year-old who snuck in with Secret Service, and they went, oh, he snuck in with us.
	Let me put this on for you.
	Text messages reveal that the shooter snuck in to the rally with Secret Service.
	I don't believe it.
	Let's play out two potentialities.
	Secret Service is driving into the rally, and the shooter drives in with them.
	They all get out of their cars and grab their weapons, and there's text messages from a counter-sniper who says, hey, a guy snuck in here, he's got a rangefinder, just want to let you know.
	Why are they texting on phones?
	They use radios.
	Why didn't they walk up and say, hey, get out, you can't be in here?
	Unless there's something a bit more simple.
	He was escorted in.
	Now, you can speculate beyond that.
	I mean, some people say, why were they texting?
	Plausible deniability.
	Yeah, no, look at our texts.
	We were concerned about it.
	Dude, I've been to Trump rallies.
	You ain't sneaking in past Secret Service.
	I was at Mar-a-Lago.
	You ain't sneaking past Secret Service.
	None of this makes sense.
	So I fear the worst.
	But I'll wrap that segment up.
	I'll leave it there.
	Next segment will be coming up at 4 p.m.
	on this channel, so smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, follow me on X at TimCast.
	For everybody else who's watching live, we'll read your Super Chats, and for everybody else not watching live, we'll see y'all at 4 p.m.
	So let's grab some Super Chats, my friends, and then we will, uh, progress on to the next story, which, uh, let me see, what do we have here?
	What do we have?
	What's the next?
	Oh, should we do this one?
	Kamala Harris, uh, DEI insults.
	We've also got, uh, yeah, we should do the, uh, they're so offended at her by calling her a DEI.
	And then look at this one.
	U.S.
	woman who was due to be the first person to die in a suicide capsule has gone missing.
	But we'll go with the Kamala Harris is so offended by being a DEI hire, oh boy.
	But first we'll grab some Super Chats from you!
	And it looks like we have quite a bit, quite a bit.
	So we'll try to read some of those.
	StrawberryMochi says, as someone who's been punched in the face multiple times, you don't get angry immediately.
	It's a shock.
	Also, my birthday is Friday.
	Can I get a happy birthday?
	Been a fan for a few years now.
	Happy birthday, StrawberryMochi!
	Uh, that's true too.
	When someone hits you, like, people think it's like a movie.
	You know what I mean?
	The sound is different.
	The feeling is different.
	Uh, and it depends.
	If you get punched in the face, you might actually lose consciousness.
	You just really don't know.
	You don't know.
	So my recommendation is always to not be in a position where you could be punched in the face.
	You want to have distance from anybody who's threatening you.
	And you know what always really bugs me?
	I was watching Book of Eli.
	You guys see that one?
	I don't like it.
	And it's fine because it's a movie.
	Awesome movie, by the way.
	I love it.
	So, I think it's Denzel.
	It's post-apocalyptic.
	He walks into a bar.
	He wants to sell something.
	He wants water.
	A cat jumps up on the bar, and he shoves the cat off.
	Kind of a dick move.
	The guy says, okay, we'll get your water.
	When another dude walks up and says, I seen what you did to my cat.
	You know, that's my cat.
	And then Eli goes, I don't want no trouble.
	And then he's like, don't be shoving my cat.
	He goes, it won't happen again.
	And I'm like, dude, what I didn't like about it is if I shoved somebody's cat and a guy walked up to me and said, hey man, I saw you shove my cat.
	I'd be like, oh dude, I'm sorry, man.
	I shouldn't have done that.
	That's my, that's my mistake.
	Legit should not have shoved your cat.
	Can I buy a drink and make it, make it up to you?
	Because seriously, like shoving someone's cat is kind of a dick move.
	And that's what I don't like.
	It's like, a fight breaks out, he kills the guy on accident, he bangs his head on the bar, and then I'm just like, was that necessary?
	Well, it's a movie, I get it, it's fine.
	Not everybody is... But my thing is always just like, dude, I don't care about if you think you're a tough guy.
	I'm not here to prove myself to anybody.
	If someone tries getting up in my face and threatening me or whatever, I'm gonna be like, hey man, look, I'm sorry for, you know, if I did something to upset you.
	How about this?
	I'll leave.
	It just depends, really.
	It really, really depends.
	I've been in circumstances where I think standing your ground is the most important thing to do, and like I said, that's when the threat is persistent, or the threat is against other people.
	So if someone's at a bar, or wherever, and they're threatening other people, and you know this person's about to get violent with other people, then there's a different story here.
	Acting in defense of others, so.
	I don't know, whatever, I'll just read some more Super Chats, we don't gotta keep going over getting punched in the face, right?
	Omega says, you said the fight you win is the fight you never have.
	That's wrong.
	The fight you win is the fight you bring in overwhelming show of force.
	Show the enemy that they're outgunned.
	That's the same thing.
	The same thing is the fight you win is the fight you never have.
	It doesn't matter how you accomplish it, there's better ways than others.
	So, if, let's put it this way, if a guy's at a bar, And he's smack talking and he walks up to you and he says, Hey man, stand up.
	Let's take it outside.
	And you straighten your shirt.
	You stand up and you say, take a look around.
	And then he turns around and there's seven other guys standing around him looking at him.
	That's a fight you never have, and that guy goes, okay, okay, man, okay, man.
	That is acceptable, too.
	Because you don't want people coming into the bar and starting fights.
	One of my favorite scenes in Deadpool, I just watched the first one, is when the bad guy, Ajax, comes into the Merc Bar, And, uh, Gina Carano's character grabs him by the neck, and then everyone in the bar stands up and points guns at them, and he's like, you might want to consider, uh, reconsider your course of action here.
	Something like that.
	That's a scene I like, where it's like, you threatened a guy, tried to start a fight, everyone here is against you, nobody wants to fight you, they want to drink their beer.
	I, I, so I agree with that, but I think it's broad, it's broad.
	You win the fights you don't have, but you also want to make sure the threat doesn't persist.
	That's the point I was making.
	If you can present an overwhelming show of force, I don't know, here's what you do.
	You're at a bar and someone tries to fight you, do a bunch of, you know, Capoeira moves and freak him out.
	I don't literally mean that.
	You know, what are you going to do?
	The risk is, a lot of guys try to play this game where they'll show a weapon, and I'm like, you can't do that.
	You gotta be careful about this idea of overwhelming show of force.
	Because there's been a lot of circumstances where someone threatens a fight and the guy lifts up his shirt and the other guy immediately draws his gun.
	We don't, we don't do that, dude.
	You don't want to get in those fights.
	Innocent people get hurt only when you absolutely have to.
	Adrian Contreras has got a bad feeling that the Dems are going to win this one.
	Despite the fact everyone whines about immigration and economy, most people just refuse to learn their damn lessons.
	Agreed.
	But, how do you win a- how do you defeat a standalone complex?
	You know, when a lot of people say, um, the Democrats cheat and all that stuff, if you live in this world where you think there's a guy in a suit at the highest level of the Democratic Party being like, ACTIVATE CHEATING PROTOCOL 13.
unidentified		Sorry.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'll tell you what you gotta be worried about.
		What's that, Kamala Harris?
		That's a Kamala vote.
		This one?
		Can't read it.
		Garbage.
		Kamala?
		Can't read it.
		looking around they see a trump ballot
		and they go i i can't read this one and throw the garbage
		what's that com harass yes a combo about this one can't read it garbage
		can't read it garbage there's nothing you can do
		if ten thousand democrats do that as individuals nothing you can do
		there is no mechanism by what you can track all of that down
		Good luck.
		And that's why people are like, we gotta have paper ballots, and the count is like, sure!
		And then you run into that risk, so audits are important.
		You need a Democrat, a Republican, and an Independent, and three people count ballots together.
		And then they say, okay, this one's for Kamala, pass it.
		Kamala, okay.
		Kamala, it's a Kamala.
		Trump, Trump, Trump, done.
		Not gonna be easy.
		Not Alan Rogers says, let me guess, 5th Generational Civil World War 3.
		You've got it.
		It's exactly it.
		Wayne Moore the Outlaw says, getting into fights is always easier to get into when you don't have people dependent on you or you feel like you don't have anything to lose.
		You are correct.
		This is why the far left goes out and riots, smashes, and gets arrested.
		They don't care.
		They don't got kids.
		They don't got family.
		They don't have jobs.
		They don't run companies.
		I got family.
		No kids.
		Got family and I've got employees.
		So if I decide to get into a fight for my honor or whatever, and I get punched in the jaw and then I can't talk for a month, a lot of people are gonna go without paychecks.
		So, uh, we can't have that.
		So by all means, any lunatic who wants to start a fight, I'm gonna be like, there is no benefit to me getting into a fight with anybody.
		That's it.
		Food Reviewer says, the Facebook stuff was a whoopsie-doodles, Tim.
		Just like when Facebook asked if fetos should be able to ask kids into- ooh.
		We'll keep this one family-friendly.
		Just a big ol' whoopsie, nothing to see here.
		Cars on Leases says, hey Tim, Israel derangement is definitely a cultural phenomenon.
		It was mentioned in an episode of Rick and Morty in 2017.
		Whenever Rick would black out, he would rant unsensibly about Israel.
		That was a funny episode where, um...
		There's- he's put all of these heroes in this trial where they have to like answer questions, and then it's just like...
		I forgot what the thing was about Israel, but it was something about...
		What was the- like one of the characters was like, I know the answer to this question, and then he gets killed.
		And then Morty's like, ugh.
		Israel, and then it's like, ding, you got it right.
unidentified		Yeah, I think that's what you're referring to.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right, PC Game Boy says you need to watch the James O'Keefe new video.
		It's huge!
		What, being Shadow Man on X?
		I'll check it out in a second.
		But first, let's talk about this.
		NBC News is upset that Kamala Harris is a diversity hire.
		Harris's political assent makes her the latest target of DEI insults.
		DEI hire has become the latest insult to black success, and presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris isn't exempt.
		I'm just gonna stop right there and ask you a question.
		How is DEI higher in insult?
		I thought we wanted diversity, equity, and inclusion.
		You know, it's really funny.
		I should pull this one up, because I didn't actually have it pulled up before, but, uh, let's, uh, it's George, George Takei.
		Takei?
		I think it's, is it Takei?
		And, uh, he calls, he calls Kamala diversity hire.
unidentified		And, oh, that is, that is what I wanted to look at.
		Optimism and joy.
		And she is the very personification of diversity.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Ah, the very personification of diversity.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's play that again.
unidentified		Strength, optimism, and joy.
		And she is the very personification of diversity.
		You can see it in her, and her diversity embraces the world, from Jamaica all the way down to South Asia, India.
		And beyond that, what she has done Well, you know, I just gotta call out George for insulting Kamala Harris like this, because as we know, calling her a D.E.I.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		hire is an insult.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And he said she embodies diversity.
unidentified		Oof!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That was cold, George.
		That was cold.
		NBC News says, An insult uttered in schools and boardrooms about many marginalized people as a new high-profile target, Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
		I think she's one of the weakest candidates I've ever seen in the history of our country.
		I mean, intellectually, just really kind of the bottom of the barrel.
		I think that she was a DEI hire, Rep.
		Harriet Hageman, a Wyoming Republican, said of Harris.
		Earlier this month, Rep.
		Tim Burchett of Tennessee said on X that the news media had propped up Biden, then dumped him for our DEI vice president.
		Curtis Bunn.
		black diversity, equity, and inclusion professionals, the attacks on Harris as a DEI hire or a DEI candidate
		show the ways racial tropes can be used against black people in power, despite their successes.
		Burchette and Hagaman did not respond to requests for comment from NBC News.
		Oh, I'll give you, who wrote this one?
		Curtis Bunn.
		I'd love to give you a comment on all of these things, and I'll tell you my thoughts right now.
		DEI refers to workplace policies and practices designed to support people of various backgrounds
		and provide resources for them to thrive, while also identifying qualified candidates for jobs
		to close racial and gender disparities, but has become the latest shorthand way
		to allege that success and power for some people of color or from other marginalized groups are unearned.
unidentified		What?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		How is it offensive?
		That's literally what it means.
		Diversity hiring means you are intentionally choosing a person for being black.
		Now the left will argue, no, no, no, no, what we're saying is if they are equally qualified, then we hire them because they're black.
		Uh-huh.
		So why are you insulted when someone's a diversity hire?
		You should be celebrating it.
		I'm genuinely confused by this.
		They want diversity hires They should be going, you're correct, she is a diversity hire.
		We do a great job to bring in diversity hires.
		And then we can go, uh-huh, okay, we agree then.
		But they're offended by it.
		Gee, I wonder why.
		Susan Rice, who is black and has been ambassador to the UN, national security advisor, and most recently an advisor to President Joe Biden, said on CNN, that when a person like me or anybody else is called a DEI hire, it means if you're a woman of any background, if you're a person of color, if you're an immigrant, if you're LGBTQ, if you're disabled, If you're a religious minority, if you're a veteran, and you achieved success, rose to a position of leadership, you didn't deserve it.
		You didn't get there on merit.
		You got there because of some unfair advantage.
		That is incredibly insulting to the vast majority of Americans who fall into all of those categories.
		But I want to pause for a second, my friends.
		There are a lot of people who are in prominent positions who are not called diversity hires.
		You know what?
		Who's the current cast of... I feel bad not knowing this, actually.
		Let me pull this up.
		Fox and Friends.
		Is that Lawrence Jones?
		That dude is awesome.
		Lawrence Jones, 31, on the cast of Fox and Friends.
		I never heard anybody call him a diversity hire.
		And it's interesting because some people might.
		You've got Fox and Friends, which usually has, like, a rotating cast of white dudes, and they bring on Lawrence Jones.
		But I gotta tell you, he's actually my favorite dude on the show.
		I think he's actually smarter than the rest of them.
		I don't, I, nobody calls him a diversity hire.
		Uh, then you've got, uh, well, I guess I run my own company, but it's funny when, uh, I don't know, someone like me, I don't count.
		No, I'm a white cis man, despite being mixed race.
		Nobody calls me a diversity hire, but again, I guess I run my own company.
		There are a lot of people uh... who are black
		that aren't being called a nobody calls larry elder a diversity hire when he gets
		book for jobs or whatever interesting isn't it
		it's because diversity higher makes a specific reference hiring someone who doesn't have the capabilities
		to do the job they're doing for the sake of diversity so when uh... joe biden said he wanted a woman vp
		and then he said i've narrowed down my vp to black women and they said i want to appoint a black woman of the
		supreme court you are not
		you're highlighting race over merit
unidentified		.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But now you get offended when someone calls you a DEI hire?
		I love it.
		Hilarious.
		Also, shout out to Lawrence Jones.
		He's my favorite guy on Fox & Friends.
		Maybe it's because he's younger, and he's more in touch.
		He's a libertarian guy.
		He's fantastic.
		While the term has been hurled at Harris before, such attacks ramped up almost immediately after Biden announced on July 21st that he was relinquishing his re-election campaign and endorsing the Vice President in the November election against Trump.
		The incendiary comments by some Republican lawmakers against Harris are just another pejorative, said Fatima Gilliam, author of the book Race Rules, What Your Black Friend Won't Tell You.
		Oh yeah?
		Maybe you could ask him.
		Spare me!
		Are you kidding?
		I don't understand why you're offended by what you made.
		California Attorney General and a U.S. Senator, and has been Vice President for
		nearly a full term. So when people want to say she's a DEI candidate, it's just a
		new way of trying to say she is the N-word candidate. Spare me! Are you kidding? A way to try to
		break her down, chip away at her. I don't understand why you're offended by what
		you made. That's it. Like, you know, it's like imagine if someone was like, yeah
		well Tim's a mixed-race commentator.
		I'd be like, uh-huh.
		Okay.
		I love the weird stuff, when they're like, you're weird.
		Can I just, I'm so proud.
		My magnum opus.
		My magnum opus, the Trump holding the bunny AI.
		I deserve all of the credit for this, and I want everyone to see it.
		I hope they insult me as much as possible over it.
		Because I have fun.
		I know you guys have fun.
		I reposted it.
		It's got 6.2 million views, 4,300 retweets, 4,100 quotes, and it is Donald Trump holding a giant rabbit.
		And the text is, quote, You'll never know want or loneliness again, Trump said.
		The world was cruel to you, but you have Trump now.
		It's called having a sense of humor.
		It's called making fun of the political landscape.
		And I intend to do it all so often.
		But what's funny is, This is my point.
		They say, why are you calling Kamala a DEI candidate?
		That's offensive.
		You're calling her the N-word.
		And I'm like, you made that up.
		You wanted that to be the case.
		You want diversity.
		Why are you mad about it?
		Then I post my very weird Donald Trump bunny AI.
		And it's not the weirdest I've made, but I'll take it.
		I don't know, I've had Joe Biden and Trump frolicking as best friends.
		I had ripped Joe Biden with no sleeves and glistening muscles with sunglasses.
		Nobody liked that one.
		But this, my magnum opus, they say, haha, you're weird.
		I'm like, thank you.
		I have strived to be the best.
		And with 6.2 million views, I'll take credit for it.
		But of course, when you call them what they want to be called, they get mad about it.
		I think that's really it, too.
		Looking at the weird line they're trying to play against conservatives, they're looking for words that insult conservatives.
		They know they're weird.
		They know they're the party of weirdness.
		And they're trying to insult and troll conservatives, because conservatives really want to be normal.
		And it works.
		A lot of conservatives are getting offended by it.
		I see it much the same way.
	I'm like, why are you mad they're calling you weird?
	Take it as a compliment.
	You know, it was funny because Pete Buttigieg on Daily Show is like, and J.D.
	Vance, look how odd he turned out to be.
	It's like, I know, very weird.
	And I'm like, uh-huh.
	Okay.
	I don't get it.
	Republicans sure are mad about it though, but I take it as a compliment.
	I grew up skateboarding, I grew up anti-establishment, punk rock, screw the machine, screw the military-industrial complex, screw the political status quo.
	Weird?
	I will take.
	I strive every day for it.
	If your mission is diversity, equity, and inclusion, the response should not be, we are insulted that you would call me what I'm doing.
	It should be, thank you for recognizing what we're doing.
	If Democrats really stood behind diversity, equity, and inclusion, as they brag about it to all of their constituents, when Republicans call them DEI hires, they should just turn to their constituents and say, have you noticed that Republicans keep referring to all of us as diversity hires?
	That proves to you we are doing the work of diversity.
	Wouldn't?
	No.
	The reality is, they're deeply insulted when you point this out.
	But I'll throw it over to my friends here.
	White men debase themselves during cringe fundraiser for Kamala Harris.
	Ah, look at all these dudes.
	Here's Post Malone saying, Black white dudes for Harris speaker.
	Okay.
	Tells the channel that silently disagreeing is not enough when dealing with the white nationalists.
	Here you go.
unidentified		White nationalists in MAGA, they want to speak for you.
		You specifically as white men.
		And I get it.
		As part of the vast majority of white men that are not a part of that extremist movement that has turned into a cult, you're focusing on your life.
		You're doing good in your personal life and doing no harm out in the world, and that could feel like enough.
		But in these times, silently disagreeing is not enough.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh.
		And what cult?
		Was that like when Trump and DeSantis were in a civil war over the primary process, and the MAGA factions were at serious odds with each other?
		And then DeSantis supporters, begrudgingly and still with disdain, said they'd vote for Trump, but they don't like the guy?
		That doesn't sound like a cult to me.
		Here we go.
		What's this guy?
		White dudes for Harris Host as people felt uncomfortable about the call.
unidentified		Oh.
		Why are we doing this?
		Why organize white dudes?
		And I'll start by really addressing the elephant in the room, which is a lot of people feel and felt uncomfortable about the call.
		And I think that's understandably so.
		You know, throughout American history, when white men have organized, it was often with pointy hats on.
		I think the skepticism is understandable.
		The reason that we are doing this is because we've just, you know, the left that has been seeding white men to the MAGA right for way, way too long.
		You know, Trump won over 60% of white men in both 2016 and 2020.
		And that's going to stop tonight because we know that the silent majority of white men aren't actually MAGA supporters.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Are they not now?
		The host of the event, Ross Morales Raquetto, opened up the Zoom saying, Morales Raquetto added that throughout American history, when white men have organized, it's often with pointy hats on.
		Oh, here you go.
		Pointy hats.
		Libby Emmons says, he says when white dudes organized, it was with pointy hats on, but I think he's forgetting when white men organized and founded the effing country.
		Indeed they did.
		Pete Buttigieg, I love this one.
unidentified		And what I think Kamala Harris is expressing so well right now is the positive side of all this, a reminder of what we are for, namely freedom.
		I'm so glad she has made freedom the theme of her campaign because I think in so many ways that's what's at stake.
		And yes, women's freedom is exhibit A after Donald Trump demolished the right to choose.
		But of course, men are also more free.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Wow!
unidentified		You get the implication of what he's saying there?
		stands up for things like access to abortion care.
		Men are more free when the leader of the free world and the leader of this country supports
		access to birth control.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
		You get the implication of what he's saying there?
		Dudes, you can bang whoever you want without any responsibility.
		I don't know, man.
		You know, I understand the people calling for peaceful national divorce because I look at a man like Pete Buttigieg and his ilk and I say, dude, live your life.
		How about you take those states and you can do whatever you want?
		I don't want to fight with you.
		I don't want to fight with you.
		I don't want to have to deal with sending somebody to federal government so we can argue about how you want to live and how I want to live.
		Don't tell me how to live in West Virginia.
		I ain't going to tell you how to live in Indiana.
		You know what I mean?
		But it don't work.
		It doesn't work that way.
		Maybe it comes to that.
		I hope not.
		But I really do feel that sentiment where it's just like, Mark Hamill, dude, you be Luke Skywalker.
		Go to California, be California.
		Leave me alone.
		It ain't gonna happen.
		It's just not gonna happen that way.
		So we'll see.
		But I'll wrap it up there.
		Shout out to the diversity hires and being deeply offended by it.

		It was a pretty good one, I might add.
		But for now, we'll read some Super Chats, and we'll see everyone else at 6 p.m.
		in the next segment.
		Let's go!
		I'm kidding.
		You know, the reason why I'm just so excited, so excited about the Trump bunny photo, is that if you've ever followed me on X, I've made so many of these weird AI images.
		I made cowboy Trump.
		Because what I think the left doesn't understand, I think many of them do, like the prominent liberal pundits know that this is satirical and it's meant to make fun of Donald Trump.
		But it makes fun of Donald Trump in a way that Trump doesn't care about and so it makes things fun.
		That is, Trump would probably look at this and then laugh and be like, but that's what people like him because it rolls off his back.
		The idea of Donald Trump as a red-caped golden paladin hugging a giant rabbit that he's rescued from a castle or something?
		It's meant to be as absurdist as possible.
		I'm just trying to be weird.
		I'm trying to inject oddity.
		It's funny, like the flag of Donald Trump riding a velociraptor with an Uzi or whatever.
		Like, dude, nobody actually thinks, like, they don't understand humor or jokes.
		But I'll tell you this, when I make AI, like I mentioned, Joe Biden, super ripped, his sleeves are ripped off, he's wearing a button-up with ripped off sleeves and his muscles are massive and he's grinning, none of the left cared!
		And I was like, guys, isn't this one weird too?
		So, Magnum Opus.
		Only because it's currently sitting at 6.2 million views.
		And what I don't get is just, like, they really don't live in reality.
		This guy Alex says, y'all get mad when Dems call you weird and then you post things like this.
		Dude, I said, I have never been mad at Democrats calling me weird.
		I'm trying to be as weird as possible every day.
		As soon as Dems ran the line weird, I was ecstatic and I doubled down.
		Dude, I ran full speed to mid-journey and I was like, let's get crazy with it.
		And this is what popped up at the time.
		I said Donald Trump in paladin armor hugging a giant rabbit.
		Because, you know, it's got to be family-friendly kind of weird.
		You can do weird stuff like the left does, but that doesn't play.
		I'm not interested in that.
		You got two guys doing adult stuff in the streets of San Francisco as weird and gross.
		No, I want weird, like, paladin armor.
		Look at this one.
unidentified		I love it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I wonder what people in the future are going to think when they look at these things.
		And if the Democrats win, they're going to be like, Conservatives genuinely thought Trump looked like this.
		My favorite thing, I will tell you, this is when Ben Garrison, the artist, whenever he draws Trump, he makes him ripped.
		It's like, come on, dude, Trump's chubby.
unidentified		Look at this.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Italy creates god emperor Trump for parade.
		Have a sense of humor, dude.
		These people live in a weird world.
		Uh, look at this, nothing, not beating them allegations.
		I ain't trying to beat any allegations, brother!
		I, I, like, this is what they don't get.
		This guy Anarchy James says, yikes, bro.
		After all, why not?
		Why shouldn't I post cringe?
		I, yes, agreed.
unidentified		100%.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know, you know what's funny about all this?
		Is that the left can't differentiate people.
		They think if you support Trump, you're just one thing.
		The right can easily point out there's Antifa far leftists.
		Within Antifa, there are communist factions.
		We call them tankies, but they're also anarcho-leftists.
		They all kind of support violence and marching locksteps, so we're still generally upset with them.
		But we see the distinction between the liberal and the leftist.
		On the left, Only the fringe left understands the difference between the right.
		With tremendous respect to our good friends over at r-slash-anarchism on Reddit.
		Leftists.
		They say Tim Poole's a liberal.
		And I'm like, oh, thank you.
		You guys understand academic political factions like what it means.
		The default left, all these people.
		Like, this guy's not really a leftist, he has no idea what he's talking about.
		Anarchy guy.
		They think the right is one big block of all the exact same thing.
		I'm like, dude, I am not a conservative.
		I have never been a conservative.
		I am a weird, random, I-don't-know-what, grew up in Chicago, in Democrat cities, whatever, and I will make pictures of Paladin Trump hugging rabbits all day.
		And, uh, I made Cowboy Trump, too.
		Cowboy Trump.
		It's a mix-and-match multiverse of Trump characters.
unidentified		You know?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You pick.
		But I'm gonna have fun with it.
		I do love when, like, the Republicans get all offended.
		Like, how dare you?
		I'm not weird, I'm wearing a suit!
		I had to buy a suit for the first time to go to Mar-a-Lago because they were having a fundraiser and I couldn't get in.
		And I was like, well, you know, I guess you need it sometimes.
		But I don't consider myself to be a suit-wearing dude.
		I just have the rolled-up sleeves and the black t-shirt.
		Well, let's do this.
		Let's talk about weird.
		From the Daily Mail, U.S.
		woman who was due to be the first person to die in a suicide capsule goes missing in Switzerland since company behind the euthanasia device decided she was not a suitable candidate.
		Ah, dude, I gotta tell you, it is dark days.
		An American woman who was due to be the first person to die in a suicide capsule has gone missing after being told she was not a suitable candidate for euthanasia, according to the company behind the device.
		The 55-year-old woman, dubbed Person X, traveled to Switzerland to use the SarkoPod designed to allow its occupant to push a button and trigger their own death.
		But it's inventor, controversial assisted dying advocate, Dr. Philip Nitschke, said her planned death on July 17th was aborted after she was found to be suffering from deteriorating mental health.
		YA THINK?!
		They're gonna sell these all over Canada, by the way.
		What is that?
		Is that a website?
		Can I pull that website up?
unidentified		I'm pulling that website up.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No way.
		Dude, look at this stuff.
		This is the reality.
		Oh, and this one's a rainbow.
		This death pod is rainbow colored.
		So, you know.
		Pride.
		At least this morning, the force confirmed a mail online.
		Oh, and this one's a rainbow.
		This death pod is rainbow colored.
		So, you know, pride.
		Okay.
		Uh, let's see.
		Dr. Nijky earlier said of the decision to deny her use of the Sarco, given her situation, it's clear this person who should now be receiving mental health care rather than any suicide assistance.
		The Sarco, short for Sarcophagus, is meant to allow the euthanasia patient inside it to press a button to die within seconds.
		The pod, which looks like something out of a sci-fi film and has been likened to a Tesla car, fills with nitrogen to starve the occupant of oxygen, rendering the patient unconscious before they die.
		It was clear from statements attributed to the woman over the past weeks that she had become seriously mentally disturbed.
		We have tried all avenues to make contact, but we have so far failed to locate the woman.
		It comes after reports yesterday that the first deployment of the Sarcopod had been permanently postponed.
		Well, that's good news.
		Dr. Nitschke, who has widely been dubbed Dr. Death, is said to be involved in the pre-screening of the next person hoping to use the device.
		So, uh, oh, they have a short film.
		Should we watch the short film about their sarcophagus pod to kill people with?
		31 seconds long.
		They're not saying anything.
		This is their pod.
		Oh, look, it sparkles!
		How fun.
		Welcome to the creepy- and the- and the- aw, dude.
		So creepy.
		The weird breathing?
		Come on.
		What do we have in the next one?
		Sarko.
		Oh, yes.
		These people are evil?
		Um, I believe this is, this is pure evil.
		And, uh, you know, I believe that there is nuance to the medical assistance in dying with great challenges.
		And I believe this is, this is evil.
		Let me tell you what I think about these people who would kill other people in such a way.
		There's a challenge.
		You know, growing up, I heard about Dr. Kevorkian, I'm sure most of you did too.
		Someone's 90 years old, they're on their deathbed, they're in hospice, and they're just like, I'm just done, I'm ready to go.
		And, you know, some people say they should be allowed to.
		You can, you know, it's your life, your choice.
		The problem is, there is only but one door to be opened.
		If we say that it's okay for a person on there, who is terminal, to choose when they die, That opens the door to literally, to quest, like, the door then becomes exactly what we're seeing.
		26-year-old woman suffering from mental anxiety decides she wants to die, so they say okay.
		And I believe that was in the Netherlands.
		55-year-old woman, turns out she was mentally ill!
		So they had to abort the killing her.
		I actually think there's an interesting challenge.
		Let's say someone's 95, and they're hooked up to a bunch of machines, it's very expensive, and they're like, it hurts 24-7, I can barely move, just unplug me.
		That's a bit different, isn't it?
		Unplugging a medical device, which is just keeping someone alive, is still the challenge.
		It is.
		And I don't know what that line is.
		But there's a big difference between pulling the plug and injecting someone with something.
		I do not believe we should ever allow the termination of life because the problem then becomes medical error and things like this.
		If someone is 90 and they decide I want to die, and so a doctor decides to administer a drug or put them in a chamber, then what stops the 80-year-old?
		70?
		60?
		50?
		40?
	Do we say, okay, well, the nuance then is you have to be at least 60 years old.
	Then you get someone who's 50, suffers from cluster headaches, and is ready to take their own life, and they make the argument, and then they say, okay, well, this person qualifies.
	Then you end up with a 26-year-old.
	I'm gonna pull this one up.
	26-year-old, uh, what is it?
	Medical assistance in dying.
	Oh, wow.
	There's another one!
	I don't- I've not read this story.
	I'm gonna pull it up.
	Because there was that one 26-year-old in the Netherlands.
	Here's this.
	Don't take your health for granted.
	Vancouver Island 26-year-old says, preparing for medically assisted death.
	If you had unbearable, untreatable pain, where would you end up?
	It's the question of a 26-year-old Vancouver Island woman who's had to grapple with, realizing that for her, the answer is, they call it MAID.
	Medical Assistance in Dying.
	Elena, who's not sharing her last name to protect her family's privacy, is preparing to leave the world.
	What's this story from?
	It's from February.
	Maybe there are two or three people in British Columbia who've had something I do or experienced the world like me and they can see this and think maybe they're not alone.
	Unlike the majority of people in Canada who pursue medical assistance in dying because of cancer, Lena is pursuing an assisted death because of increasing unrelenting and untreatable pain in part from a malfunctioning immune system.
	I really encourage everyone to not take their health for granted.
	This started when I was 19 and it's progressed.
	There have been beautiful moments in that time but I've lost a lot of my life to illness.
	Becoming legal in Canada in 2016 made it only permitted to be conducted by medical practitioners after meeting a slate of specific eligibility criteria.
	Now my question is this.
	I'm not sure, I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure there's no way to detect pain.
	Correct me if I'm wrong in the chat.
	But my understanding is that when you go to the doctor and they say how much pain are you in, there's no machine that measures pain.
	You simply tell them.
	So you could be experiencing a 2 and you could say it's a 10.
	In fact, there are many people who do this to get drugs.
	People who are addicts will injure themselves, go to the hospital, and be like, the pain's a 10, you gotta give me the good stuff, I need the most powerful stuff you can give me.
	Because they're addicts.
	But for this woman to be like, uh, I'm hurting.
	And they're like, well, okay, I guess.
	Last fall, Lena says, the years of pain peaked along with no foreseeable treatment to alleviate it.
	I felt so lonely for some years with all these symptoms and this progressive dysfunction that no one could address, no one could answer.
	She says she remembers clearly the day she realized it had to end with a medically assisted death.
	And from that point, just, this is what needs to happen.
	This isn't a decision.
	I can't take this.
	It's unbearable.
	It's just gotten worse and worse and worse.
	It needs to happen.
	During the assessment process to receive approval for MADE, Lena says she found an affirmation of her suffering that she hadn't felt before.
	That piece of validation can be so important after having spent so much time trying to advocate for yourself in a system that feels like you're on a treadmill with the highest incline.
	You want to know why we can't do this?
	I'll tell you where this goes.
	With these pods.
	What happens when there's someone who doesn't want to die?
	And the doctor says this individual should die.
	Let's say there's somebody who has a whistleblower for some big corporation.
	They've downloaded some files and the company finds out.
	And then a doctor shows up, the police, 5150, this person saying, no, I'm not crazy, and they're like, look, we're doing a well-being check for your mental health, 5150, involuntary, you're involuntarily being committed.
	They bring her to a place, someone goes to the doctor and says, make this one go away.
	And the doctor says, OK, ma'am, your medical assistance in dying has been approved.
	And she goes, what?
	No, no, no!
	And then they go, oh, she's getting crazy again.
	Borderly's come in.
	Sedator.
	They put her in the pod, they terminate, and they say she requested it, she was suffering, she was undergoing serious mental trauma and pain, and so we fast-tracked her for medical assistance and dying.
	You know, you might say, that's crazy, Tim, that will never happen, but we are literally at the point where a 26-year-old woman has chosen to end her life and the government is going to do it for her.
	I do not see why I would be wrong in assessing the possibility of such a thing happening.
	That's the scary reality.
	Of where we are headed.
	So, when we look at the, um, I don't know, potential for World War III, or Civil War, or whatever you want to call it, take a look at this rainbow pod.
	They can put you in, end your life.
	And, um, maybe you'll be a, uh, 26-year-old person who's depressed, because that is one of the criteria that they've, they've introduced.
	And that is the scary reality of where we're going.
	Futurama got it right.
	I don't know how they predicted it, but, uh, yeah, suicide pods.
	That's a scary thought, man.
	I say no, but who am I, right?
	Some guy complaining on the internet.
