tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know, usually a lame duck presidency is the second term.
		I mean, that's what we're used to.
		The president knows he's on his way out.
		There's not really much he's going to do.
		Not really going to sign any laws.
		Well, right now they're calling this Joe Biden's lame duck presidency, despite the fact that it's the end of his first term because the dude was forced out by the Democrats.
		Now, of course, as most of you know, Joe Biden is infirm.
		We know this because we all watched the debate.
		In reality, we know this because we've been paying attention quite a bit the whole time.
		And we knew that Joe Biden was incapable of doing this job as he has been in serious mental decline.
		Well, just the other day, video went viral showing Jill Biden leading Joe's cabinet meeting.
		This pissed off a lot of people.
		Nowhere in the Constitution does it say that a president can hand over the duties of the presidency to an unelected spouse.
		Now me, I call this seditious.
		And boy did that trigger many liberals and democrats.
		But my point is this.
		Jill Biden has no authority to lead governmental functions.
		None.
		No authority.
		And to do so and take charge, I believe, is subversive as to this government.
		That is to say, sedition is to cause others or to encourage them to rebel or act against the interests of this country, to seek to subvert this country and its government.
		And I believe that's what's happening.
		Joe Biden is incapable of doing his job.
		Kamala Harris has a duty to invoke the 25th Amendment.
		However, this may be the October surprise.
		Many people are saying that, uh, many people, but there's some predictions that the October surprise could be that Kamala Harris becomes the president.
		And if you watch this video of Joe Biden handing off his cabinet meeting, it's not just that he gave it to Jill Biden.
		It's that the man can barely speak.
		It is shocking.
		The man is practically asleep at this meeting, and that's why he hands over the authority of this country to Jill.
		Who's Jill?
		Did we elect her?
		Now some people say, you know what, who cares, it's no big deal, but many of these people are seemingly broke, Amala Harris.
		I think it's a particularly big deal when the president, who was elected, is unable to do the duties of his job, and we just sit back.
		Now get this.
		The New York Post is reporting that Joe Biden has taken 48 years worth of vacation in four years of his presidency.
		That is to suggest all along this man was never really the president.
		They have desecrated this office.
		They have put in a man who is not working and now there are calls to remove him.
		So we're going to talk about that.
		Plus we got a bunch of other funny news.
		The IRS has endorsed Kamala Harris.
		So that tells you all you need to know.
		I'm like, the IRS union has endorsed Kamala Harris.
		Okay, now it's just, that's the talking point you need.
		That's all you gotta tell everybody when they're like, I don't know, I'm, I'm one of the 10% who's undecided, which we presume exists somewhere.
		You say, okay, well, the IRS endorsed, the IRS union endorsed Kamala Harris.
		They're gonna go, oh.
		Yeah, so you know what that means?
		The IRS There's no fans of the IRS.
		I mean, I'm sure that even people who work for the IRS are like, you know, I hate my job.
		Maybe there's some guy who does like a cool thing for the IRS.
		I have no idea.
		I mean, maybe there's like a law enforcement investigative team and they're going after like gangsters and things like that.
		Fine, whatever.
		Tax evasion.
		But I'm pretty sure you go to any American and say, how do you feel about the IRS?
		And they're gonna be like, I don't like them.
		Why?
		Come on.
		How many people do you know received a letter in the mail that says you owe the IRS a couple hundred bucks and you're like, I don't know why.
		What am I supposed to do?
		And you just have to pay the money.
		So congratulations to Kamala.
	We'll talk about that.
	We've got some cultural stories for you.
	We've got a great op-ed by Phil Abonte in Fox News talking about how society is failing men and boys, which I think will be particularly interesting.
	We've got a big story.
	This is the RNC filing a lawsuit.
	In Pennsylvania, they have, according to the suit, illegally released untested ballots for mail-in voting, which is...
	Welcome to the Shadow Campaign, my friends.
	We're gonna talk about all that.
	It's gonna be a whole lot of fun, but before we get started, my friends, we got big news!
	Head over to buycominghome.com, and you can pre-order the latest single, which is by TimCast, coming out next week.
	I'll give you a quick sneak preek as it is available on TimCast Music, so you can go subscribe at TimCast Music, but 30 seconds, we'll give you this quick preview.
unidentified		On a quiet faded pavement, I drove myself to find the place.
		There's nothing more, it's just something else.
		So this is our latest song.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It'll be out on the 27th, so in just about six days it will release.
		And then, of course, we'll have a big push throughout the week to try and get as many sales as possible.
		And I'll give you a quick update, you know, self-promo, all that stuff.
		Buy Coming Home.
		Like, buy it.
		ComingHome.com.
		And you can pre-order it now on iTunes.
		Phil Labonte, guest vocals for the big finale in the song.
		The song is about an individual coming home to find that the cities are left in ruin because the people we entrust to run them have run them into the ground.
		You know, Chicago, it's a hundred years under Democrat rule and it's only gotten worse.
		Crime is rampant.
		And I talk to people who are back home and they say, it's crazy.
		Child gangbangers running around robbing stores.
		They're putting up weird barricades all over downtown.
		Stores in downtown, once prominent, shutting down.
		These people, and you all know it because you've watched it, have destroyed our cities.
		Now, one last thing I'll say on this.
		We released this song, I'm sorry, Together Again, which was a collab with The Daily Wire.
		And I think that may have been the last song we put out.
		And I just, let me put it this way.
		We're trying, just like with Am I Racist, Matt Walsh's film, we want to put out creative works, and we're gonna promote them, and, you know, Am I Racist is not overtly political, but boy does it get the message across.
		The songs we put out are not overtly political, but we try to get the message across.
		I'll leave the judgment up for you guys, not everybody's a fan, that's fine.
		But the institutions are losing their minds and doing everything they can to make sure that even though we have chart-topping songs, they will not let it happen.
		The same is true for Tom MacDonald.
		We're nowhere near as big as he is.
		I'm just a musician.
		We work, you know, Phil Labonte is a good friend, and he's part of the show, and he collaborated and helped write this song.
		And, of course, he's got tremendous success in the music area as a musician.
		But the last song we put out We followed all their rules.
		We asked them, what do we need to do?
		We sold somewhere around 35,000 to 40,000, I think, singles.
		And for some reason, we hit some of the charts.
		We hit, like, emerging artists and digital sales.
		But this should have been much, much bigger.
		And then they come back to us afterwards and say, oh, you know all that stuff we told you to do?
		Yeah, whoops.
		Whoopsie daisies.
		Previously in another song, same thing happened.
		They said, oh, you know, we told you you could do this to chart.
		They remove it at the last minute.
		I can only tell you this, the game is rigged and we all know it because the institutions are terrified that we're going to come in and we're going to take over and they can't stand it that people who defy their crackpot narrative are producing cultural works or at least attempting to.
		Now, I can say this for Matt Walsh.
		That movie, Am I Racist?, is incredible.
		I've made documentary films before, so as I'm watching it, I can just see the things they had to do to get that done.
		That's why I give it a 10 out of 10.
		Aside from being funny and great and all that stuff.
		Now, it's easy for me to look at his work and say, it's amazing.
		I'm not going to sit here and say that, you know, anything we put out music-wise is a masterpiece or otherwise.
		Music is, you know, people have different tastes and different styles.
		They like different things.
		But we are trying every day To create some kind of culture.
		And you know, musicians, artists, they put stuff out.
		They make it, and they say, I hope this one people like.
		And you know what?
		Most of the time, they don't like it.
		But I'm not going to let the institutions control the narrative, and I'm not going to let them try and block us, because I can tell you this.
		We've got, I think, six or seven songs out, and five or six of them have charted on Billboard in spite of the efforts of this industry to block us from getting there.
		And so you get these haters and they say, you're putting out garbage, no one likes what you're doing.
		I'm like, I don't know, we're seemingly hitting billboard.
		We're charting where most bands never chart once.
		Even some of your favorite bands may only have been on the charts a little bit.
		They put out 50 songs and one or two of them make it.
		And so we put out this song, we did a big collab with The Daily Wire, Smokey, Mike, and The God King, Jeremy Boring, Michael Knowles, and... I want you to call it shenanigans.
	I say, in my opinion, shenanigans.
	They come out and they say, we changed the rules, this no longer counts for charting.
	Despite it being our biggest release, 6.6 million views on the music video, 2 million views on the lyric video, plus hundreds of thousands on other streaming platforms, 30 plus to 40 thousand in sales, and they said, this one doesn't count!
	Yeah.
	It's annoying, I'll put it that way, but if everybody who watches the show pre-orders the song, buys the song on iTunes, for all we know, this time they're going to say, now we've banned iTunes, because they don't want this to happen.
	But I digress, my friends.
	Let's talk about the news this morning.
	I got a bunch of segments for you today.
	It's Saturday.
	We didn't have a show last night on IRL.
	It was no big deal.
	No big deal.
	A lot of people were worried, family emergency, but it's nothing serious.
	I just had to go and take care of some family stuff.
	And everything turned out to be okay.
	So apologies for not having the show, but these things happen.
	And, you know, when I get a, like, I'll put it this way, when I'm sitting here getting ready and, uh, you know, I hear there's, like, an issue or family's in need of help, I'm running out the door, I'm getting in the car, and I'm gone.
	There's no chance for pre-production.
	I'm not gonna, you know, I'm like, I'm not gonna try and rush back.
	I'm gonna make sure everything's taken care of.
	And then, you know, it turned out to be okay, and everything's fine, but these things happen.
	And it was Friday, too, so...
	Let's talk about the news, my friends.
	Here we go, from the New York Post.
	Now, this has got a lot of people pissed off.
	They're basically saying that this is... I mean, this is Joe Biden.
	hosting Rose Garden party without him.
	Now, this has got a lot of people pissed off.
	They're basically saying that this is, I mean, this is Joe Biden.
	He's infirm.
	Who is our president?
	The New York Post says Biden's astonishing vacation total.
	He took 48 years worth of leave in four.
	So who is our president?
	I want to show you this video.
	Look at the man.
	I'm going to play this for you.
	It is shocking.
joe biden ▲ ● ▼		In the peace process, we're continuing to try to do what we tried from the beginning.
		To make sure that both the people in northern Israel as well as southern Lebanon are able to go back to their homes and go back safely.
		And the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, our whole team is working in the intelligence community to try to get that done.
unidentified		We're going to keep at it until we get it done. But we've got a way to go.
unidentified		We gotta make our way out. Thank you, everyone. Thank you so much. Thank you, everyone, we gotta make our way out. We're
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		moving this way. We're moving this way. Thank you. Shh.
unidentified		Is it realistic to get to a ceasefire deal, or has too many bad things happened to make it difficult?
joe biden ▲ ● ▼		If I ever said it's not realistic, we might as well leave.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is what we're seeing right now of Joe Biden.
		He then hands off the cabinet meeting.
		A lot of people are pointing out that this is not even constitutional.
		You can't just do this.
		But I think it's not so much to sit here and be outraged and say, oh, heavens me, this is the moment.
		No, this is just a grain of sand in the heap.
		This has been ongoing for some time.
		Quote, she's officially Edith Wilson.
		I don't know why we as Americans tolerate something like this.
		I mean, there should be an immediate congressional move, but I can tell you why.
		You know, the other day I'm hanging out and there's, you know, an older guy recognizes me and he said, you know, when I was younger, we used to have disagreements, but we were okay with those disagreements.
		And when there was, when there was partisanship, you know, we'd try to negotiate and you'd see, you know, they'd come and they'd talk about it.
		And I said, the disagreements were minor compared to what we see today.
		The problem now is Democrats... I told the guy, I was like, look man, half the country lives in a delusional state.
		He goes, half the country?
		And I was like, yes, half the country.
		Maybe slightly less than half.
		And he was like, just half?
		When you look at viewership trends in media, independent voters and conservatives consume both liberal and conservative media sources, but Democrats, 98% only leftist sources.
		So independent voters are seeing a little bit of both.
		They lean a little bit more towards the left, that's why they're not Republicans.
		They're getting about two-thirds of their media consumption from corporate press, left-leaning outlets, but one-third from conservative outlets.
		Conservatives, it's inverted.
		About two-thirds from conservative sources and a third from liberal sources.
		So conservatives know what liberals are saying, independents know what conservatives are saying, and they understand each other.
		Democrats and liberals live in a delusional state where they think Trump called neo-Nazis very fine people.
		This is why I want to make a game show where you make liberals and conservatives do trivia because the liberals are gonna get everything wrong.
		I mean, you're gonna ask questions like, what was the name of the Trump aide who was falsely charged after a Democrat-aligned lawyer fabricated or altered evidence to get a conviction?
		And they're gonna be like, huh?
		That never happened.
		Yeah, you get the point.
		Independent voters are aware.
		Now, here's the reality.
		It's because when you look at independents today, that's where Democrats were 15, 20 years ago.
		Maybe even 10 years ago.
		Well, probably not 10 years.
		Yeah, maybe 10 years ago, but then things got real crazy with Hillary Clinton.
		But Democrats, you know, they consume a little bit of the right and, you know, and that was the difference.
		Two-thirds left, two-thirds right.
		You'd have your debate and you'd have your argument.
		Now what we're seeing is that Joe Biden is clearly incapable of running this country.
		They call him a lame duck, but that's not even fair.
		As you can hear him struggle to speak, you know that they've got him sleeping 16 hours a day.
		He wakes up, they probably give him uppers, and I'm not trying to be mean, they probably have him on something.
		There was one instance where you saw, he had like IV marks on his hand, they're probably giving him vitamin drips and NAD to try and keep him going.
		He shows up for cabinet meetings, the first one in 11 months, and he hands it over to Jill Biden.
		Any functioning sane country would say, okay, We need someone to step in and do this job, but who's doing it?
		This proves something to all of us, my friends, something you should all be aware of at this point.
		With Kamala Harris, an individual who received not a single vote from the American people to be the presidential nominee, to Joe Biden not actually doing the job, taking vacation and handing off his meetings to his wife, Trump is running against a machine and not an individual, not a party, a machine.
		It's a system.
		The question is, can Donald Trump as an individual defeat that system?
		It's rather terrifying.
		It's an emergent consciousness of chaotic destruction.
		And I don't say that lightly.
		You know, we were talking about this the other day on the Culture War podcast, emergent phenomena in social media algorithms, and we were talking about the Cult of Keck, they called it, or the Pepe Prophecy.
		It's a really great video that talks about something people refer to as meme magic.
		I refer to this as more of emergent digital consciousness.
		Let me explain what I'm talking about.
		In 2015-16, memes were flying like crazy.
		Individuals were going online and posting Pepe the Frog and Donald Trump dancing and things like this.
		They say they memed him into the presidency.
		People refer to this as meme magic.
		Now, there's a bunch of strange coincidences.
		That is, in World of Warcraft, they wanted to make it so you couldn't talk to the enemy faction, so if the enemy faction was speaking, the word bubbles above their head would be weird, strange words you couldn't understand.
	If one player typed in L-O-L, laugh out loud, enemy factions would see K-E-K, kek.
	So it became a meme among young people to say kek, instead of L-O-L.
	That was the joke.
	Eventually, With Pepe the Frog becoming a viral meme coming from some comic in 2005, I think it was, people started associating, using the words Kek, saying, you know, Pepe the Frog, making Pepe memes.
	There was a gag about a false country called Kekistan.
	And then people pointed out that Kek is a frog god from Egypt who represents chaos and darkness.
	Now, all of this is silly, right?
	I'm not trying to get any occult stuff, but my point is this.
	People were creating this digital consciousness that wanted Donald Trump to be president.
	They were all posting the same things.
	They were all building this culture.
	And then the powers that be, the institutions, crushed it.
	They banned people.
	They started shutting certain images down.
	They accused it of being white supremacist to make sure that this cultural consciousness could not emerge.
	That which helped Donald Trump win.
	What we're seeing now is the exact same thing.
	Now, the easiest way to put it is that you have a left and a right.
	The right at the time was making memes and joking about fake countries and Egyptian gods, and it was silly, right?
	But it was a unifying culture that the machine state didn't like.
	That's the Uniparty.
	Where we're at now is that the machines that Trump is running against is effectively the exact same thing.
	A digital consciousness.
	It is a swarm.
	It is a hive.
	It doesn't make sense.
	It doesn't need to make sense.
	It is chaos.
	It is fire.
	It simply consumes and expands.
	Let me tell you, what did we hear in the news today?
	Patrick Mahomes won't make an endorsement.
	The Teamsters won't make an endorsement.
	Why?
	Because you know they're endorsing Donald Trump, and the way it goes is that if you publicly come out and say, Donald Trump's my guy, they will try to destroy you like a swarm of venomous insects.
	Like a cult!
	If you say you're endorsing Kamala Harris, Republicans and Conservatives will just roll their eyes and say, you suck.
	No one's gonna take your job from you, no one's gonna show up at your house, you've got nothing to worry about other than mean tweets.
	And so prominent celebrities and individuals are terrified and won't do it.
	The teamsters, despite it being two to one support for Trump, their leadership will not endorse Donald Trump.
	So what do we see now with Jill Biden taking over for Joe Biden?
	It's a swarm.
	It's a hive.
	It's a cult.
	There's no leadership.
	There's no form.
	There's no structure.
	Joe Biden's not president.
	I don't even know how to describe it.
	That's Trump running against a machine.
	The way they describe it is that it's a cult because people like Trump no matter what.
	Well, it's because people don't believe Trump is a messiah or savior.
	They think he's a strong man and they want a leader.
	They're not going to follow him or jump off a bridge.
	In fact, when Trump goes to his rallies and check these videos and brags about Operation Warp Speed, they boo him.
	Sounds like a cult to me.
	Sounds like people saying, look, I'm a tradesman.
	I'm going to go to work.
	I'm going to make money.
	I'm going to feed my family.
	Trump, I want you for this job.
	You take care of the stuff.
	I can't.
	That sounds like hiring someone.
	To the machine state, they say, the machine must be in control regardless of who it is or what they want or what we accomplish or what we destroy.
	There's no real rhyme or reason or policy on the left.
	I mean, you have this video going viral of Kamala Harris talking to Oprah being like, if someone broke into my house, I'm gonna shoot him!
	It's like Democrats have long been opposed to that.
	You go to Maryland and you shoot an intruder, you go to prison.
	Why is Kamala Harris acting like Democrats favor that thing?
	Because it doesn't matter.
	They say whatever, and as long as they are the machine state, they can say whatever they want.
	They can contradict themselves.
	And thus, Trump versus the machine.
	Take a look at this.
	They say, here across the previous administrations, first ladies have attended these meetings for specific reasons.
	This is the first time Jill has joined us, and it goes to show how important the issue is.
	Blah, blah, blah, blah.
	Former Fox News host, Andrea Tantaro, said, I'm unsure which part is more disturbing, that the White House held its first cabinet meeting in a year, or two, Jill Biden is leading the first White House cabinet meeting in a year.
	She can't lead a presidential cabinet meeting.
	She doesn't hold a security clearance.
	Now, hey, hold on there a minute.
	We can make this argument because I'll play this game.
	Joe Biden as president has plenary declassification powers and thus everything presented is now declassified.
	Play that game.
	No, they're trying to still arrest Donald Trump over classified documents that were scattered in boxes.
	We're supposed to act like this is normal.
	Take a look at this from Fox News.
	They bring up a bunch of different quotes.
	Greg Price saying, she is literally Edith Wilson, except right out in the open, in a 24-hour, 24-7 news cycle, and nobody in the media cares.
	A visibly exhausted Joe Biden just held a full cabinet meeting for the first time in 11 months, and immediately turned over the mic to his wife.
	I'd like to turn it over to Jill for any comments she has.
	It's all yours, kid.
	Who is running the country?
	Look, man.
	When Joe is talking like this, you know he ain't there.
	Let's just talk about a strapping young lad like me.
	Actually, I'm 38, so I'm just about getting close to middle age.
	But at 38, I'm still quite functional.
	I can't imagine anybody watching my live streams if I talk like this the whole time.
	You know what would be really, really funny?
	And maybe we should do this.
	We'll be doing TimCast IRL, and I'll sit here and say, uh... The news is, uh, you know, uh, Israel... Blew up a bunch of pagers.
	I'm gonna hand it off to, uh, Anna Claire.
	Take it away, kid.
	And then they're going to be like, is this Tim Castellar anymore?
	You know, if I were to do that, this is really, really funny.
	If I were to host my show, say five words in 30 seconds, and then pass it off to someone else to speak and I did nothing, people would be like, Tim's not hosting the show.
	He's just sitting in the room.
	And that's actually what's going on.
	The problem is this person is supposed to be leading our country.
	Well, I can't say I'm surprised.
	I don't think any of you are surprised.
	Red-headed libertarian Annex says at no point do the Articles of the Constitution state that the First Lady may sit in for the President when he cannot fulfill his duties.
	In fact, Article 2, Section 1 explicitly states the Vice President has that responsibility, but we don't know where Kamala Harris is, so there you go.
	Remember this one from the New York Times?
	Biden's lapses are said to be increasingly common and worrisome?
	Indeed we do.
	Trump has called for modifying the 25th Amendment to make it possible to remove a vice president because he's basically like, let's get rid of them both!
	But hey, Trump, there's no vice president.
	She'd be sitting in for the cabinet meeting.
	She'd take over the duties for the president.
	There's no president.
	He can barely speak.
	So I can't tell you what's going on.
	The apparent situation we're dealing with is that we have a machine state.
	It's a chicken with its head cut off.
	It's chaos.
	If Trump does not win in November, this country doesn't exist.
	We will become a chicken with its head cut off.
	At least I can say now that Donald Trump is trying to lead this country.
	And of course, there's Senate and there's Congress, but they're so dysfunctional.
	I don't know how we navigate out of this one, my friends.
	I really don't.
	Ben Shapiro responded, isn't the vice president constitutionally obligated to invoke the 25th
	amendment under the under these circumstances? Indeed, but I don't know if I want to see
	President Kamala, although she's probably better than Joe Biden, let's be honest.
	That's a low bar.
	That bar is basically laying on the ground and you need only step over it, I suppose.
	I don't know if Kamala can do it.
	But maybe that will be the October surprise.
	Many people speculating that the October surprise is going to be Kamala Harris becomes the president.
	One month of the election, the ads they run are going to say, the legacy of women and people of color cannot be A one-month presidency.
	For the first time, this nation has, you know, a female, a female person of color who is the president of the United States.
	And they're going to try and rally every young person.
	I would be surprised.
	Because they're going to go, Oprah's going to come out again, every celebrity, and they're going to say, if Donald Trump wins, the message sent, think about it.
	You have the first female president of color.
	But she's only in for a month.
	You can see the narrative.
	removed by a old white man proving this country, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	You can see the narrative.
	I'm not so convinced that'll happen, though, to be honest.
	I mean.
	Biden was removed, so I would say that prediction was correct.
	My speculation as to how they pull it off, you know, to be honest, I never said definitively, but I did like the idea of, you know, Joe Biden's life being saved by Gavin Newsom.
	Of course, it didn't happen.
	And to be fair, I also did say this too.
	They might just remove him.
	They don't need to do anything special.
	They'll just literally be like, Biden's out.
	It turns out that's what they did.
	They just said, yeah, Biden, you're gone.
	Bye.
	So we'll see.
	We will see.
	I'm going to wrap this first segment up there.
	We've got a lot more coming up for you guys.
	The RNC is suing PA County for illegally issuing untested early bouts.
	But get those super chats in.
	It's a Saturday special show, of course.
	I'm going to do a show tomorrow as well.
	Just do the show every day, I guess.
	And, you know, I used to do weekends, had the show up every single day.
	And so we'll do that.
	But in order to work this hard, I need your help as well.
	Share the show on all your social media if you can.
	We are competing with a YouTube algorithm that certainly does not want to see this kind of message or narrative emerge in the culture.
	And so, you know, I can do as much as I can.
	We run advertisements to promote TimCast IRL, which is something new we haven't really done.
	We did billboard ads in the past.
	That was, you know.
	But now we're doing direct ads on YouTube, and we're going to be expanding because marketing is important.
	We have to do it.
	But also, I'll just say this.
	If every single person who was watching shared this, of course, as you know, we'd be the biggest media show in the world.
	But, you know, that's the challenge.
	That's the challenge.
	If every single person who watched became a member at TimCast.com, we'd be the biggest.
	Well, not the biggest, but we'd be massive.
	I mean, let's be real.
	I think we'd be competing with the likes of some of the biggest networks.
	We have 1 million subscribers to the audio podcast.
	We've got about 2 million to TimCast.IRL.
	We've got a million here.
	There's some overlap, but imagine if 3 million people subscribed to TimCast.com.
	Pretty sure that would put us in the top of the top.
	It's like $30 million a month.
	You know, we could do a lot.
	We do a lot.
	But also, I'll just shout out, buycominghome.com, pre-order the song.
	If you want to help us in our cultural endeavors, if you're fans of our music, if you want to hear a song whose message is, they have destroyed our cities and those who are coming home to find in this way aren't going to take it anymore.
	It's coming home.
	You go to buycominghome.com and that's B-U-Y.
	Probably should have thought about that one better.
	We'll grab some of your superchats right now though, my friends, before we jump to the next story.
	We do have a bunch.
	We'll just be having fun with this one on the Saturday because I've got some cultural stories.
	There's an op-ed from Phil Labonte about society failing men and boys that I think is going to be particularly good.
	Shout out, Phil.
	All right, Jim Baramba says weekend money.
	Hey, appreciate it.
	The Emperor's Champion said same thing happened with Woodrow Wilson.
	He was incapacitated and his wife did his duties for him as well.
	Hey, and a lot of people think Woodrow Wilson was the worst president.
	David Brickin says, your premise about an island prison, as it were, is actually a plot point in Ray Liotta's movie from the 90s called No Escape.
	It's actually a pretty fantastic movie.
	I'm right.
	I'm completely right.
	I had a great debate with Matt Walsh.
	And he was saying, we have to argue within the realm of reality, and creating an island is not within the realm of reality.
	And I said, it's a fair point, it's a fair point.
	I would push back and say, it's not the most extreme idea, mind you.
	But look at what we're doing with all these prisons.
	Look, man, I gotta be honest.
	I just think penal colonies, maybe not in the traditional sense, that's probably the wrong way to put it, island imprisonment, I think is much, much better.
	That there should be a series of crimes.
	If you get life in prison or warranting the death penalty, we just exile you.
	We just say, you go to the island, dude.
	You have to now fend for yourself.
	Alright?
	You can grow food, you can farm.
	That's it.
	Have a nice day.
	You figure it out.
unidentified		There you go.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I did see something amazing, by the way, though.
		I watched this video where they went to a prison, and they had a bunch of cats that were going to be put down because they were shelter cats.
		And instead, they gave each inmate a cat.
		And then the inmates chilled the F out.
		Fighting started stopping.
		It was interesting.
		The fighting has to do with interests.
		People don't fight in prison or fight in general for no reason.
		Sometimes they are stupid reasons.
		But when they gave all these inmates a cat to take care of, not only did they want the cats and like the cats, they were concerned about the safety of their cats more than the safety of themselves.
		They were saying things like, well, they don't want to fight because they're concerned someone might retaliate against their cat.
		And so everyone's like, hey, hey, I got a kitty.
		Leave my kitty alone.
		And so things got really calm.
		As everybody had responsibility over a smaller life, it made them more concerned about the cat instead of each other.
		You know, when you think about it, You get into a beef with someone, and they can hurt your cat.
		I mean, that's a cross in the line.
		Guys will fight and be like, I don't care about my safety, you don't... No, no, no, no, don't hurt my cat.
		I think the funny thing is, it's like, a weak facsimile for having a baby.
		You know?
		People with kids, they leave my kids alone.
		But anyway, that was funny.
		Alright, let's grab a couple more Super Chats here.
		Nathan Ritchie says, Hey Tim, fun fact of the day, Kamala's more famous for what went in her mouth rather than what comes out of it.
		I'm sorry, that's too harsh.
		That's my bad.
		The memes, they are so brutal, my friends.
		The memes, they are brutal.
		Andrew Jacobs says, Hope everything is okay with you and your family.
		Yeah, you know, I didn't think people were going to think it was like a five alarm fire.
		It was like a one.
		Dude, I don't want to, you know, bring up personal family issues.
		Like, nobody died or anything like that.
		It was like, not even a big deal.
		It was just, you know, when I get a family member saying like, hey, something's happening, I'm like, all right, all right.
		I got to go.
		Like, I'm not going to sit here.
		I jumped in the car and, uh, I just said, I'm not going to be able to put the show together.
		Family comes first.
		And, uh, you know, hung out, everything started to be okay.
unidentified		You know, that's about it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's a no big deal.
		It just means that if I've got to run out the door to go check on family, like there's no way to put a show together.
		I think even like some some people were sick or whatever.
		And I'm like, I just I just can't right now family comes first.
		You know, and I think everybody agrees.
		I also think it's like I just, could you imagine if I'm like, I do this show and I have some kind of family issue that actually gets worse to where people find out and they're like, Tim had a family member in need and ignored them and did the show anyway.
		I'm like, I'm pretty sure everybody would cancel their memberships if they were like, Tim abandoned his family to do the show.
		But I wouldn't do that.
		I wouldn't do that, right?
		So, that means, you know, all 500 to 3 million individuals who watch between the clips and the full show will go without, so I can help out my family when they're in need.
		Alright.
		Hank the Hokage Hills says, I always wondered why you don't have a backup main host.
		I think Hannah would be okay.
		Hannah Clare essentially is, and I believe we've talked with Phil Labonte, I mean, literally about why he's here for that role especially.
		That either of them could take over the duties in the event.
		That being said, it was, the issue was, it was, you know, normally, if I'm, like, sick or something happens, and we have to, like, so I had an infected tooth, and so I knew, like, that morning, and I was like, hey, you guys take care of the show, I'm going to the dentist, I've gotta get this thing taken care of.
		This was like, I don't know, what was it, like 5.30 or 6?
		And I was like, nobody's gonna be here on time, no one's got anything prepped, it's Friday, they're weak news days, I think a couple people were even sick and we were trying to find a rotate, like, so I was just like, guys, I can't stop and think about this.
		I can't negotiate.
		I gotta go.
		And so it happened.
		But I do think we're going to get that rolling.
		And probably have, you know, Hannah, Claire and Phil could both do it.
		And so we probably will have that be the circumstances in the future, especially, especially considering, you know, I hate missing shows.
		I really, really do.
		Let's go, we'll grab a couple more here.
		My name is Will M, says Atlantic City Electric in South Jersey had a major price hike.
		I just paid over $900 for a bill.
		I can't afford electricity anymore.
		WTF is going on?
		Dude, this is insanity.
		And Donald Trump says unleash energy!
		Deregulate.
		Make it cheaper.
		A good portion of the cost of your goods is transportation because of fuel prices.
		If we get those costs down, we got an entire Alaska over here that we ain't utilizing.
		Okay?
		And I think we should.
		I think we should occupy Alaska.
		All right.
		Let's jump to the story, my friends, because It is the Shadow Campaign.
		RNC files lawsuit against Montgomery County PA for illegally issuing untested early ballots.
		Take a look at this guy!
		Commissioner Neil Makija, I officially cast the first ballot in Montgomery County, and perhaps the first in Pennsylvania.
		Mail-in ballots are being sent out now, and you can apply for yours at montcovotes.com.
		Oh boy!
		Hold on there a minute.
		They haven't tested the ballots yet.
		They're not ready to be released.
		And this guy's releasing them.
		The Republican National Committee has filed suit in the Common Pleas Court of Montgomery County, PA, alleging that the Montgomery County Board of Commissioners have commenced the 2024 election without completing the required testing per the election code.
		This testing is intended to promote election integrity, and without it, certain assurances cannot be met.
		The testing provides, quote, Election officials an opportunity to identify and redress errors in the election definition, ballot format, and layout, including but not limited to appropriate locations for folds on absentee mail-in ballots, missing races, missing party identification, incorrectly worded ballot questions, and incorrect tabulation.
		The directive for pre-election testing of ballots also requires county boards to, quote, certify to the secretary when they have been completed.
		the testing and to complete the certification at least 15 days prior to every election
		in their jurisdiction and must submit the certification electronically to the Department
		of State. Pursuant to the election code in the state, all counties in Pennsylvania must conduct
		pre-election logic and accuracy testing prior to every election, primary, general, special,
		and municipal that is conducted in their jurisdiction. This testing, per the directive,
		is a series of pre-election steps intended to ensure that ballot scanners, marking devices,
		and all components of the county's certified voting systems are properly configured in good
		working order prior to being used in the election.
		On September 13th, the defendant Frank Dean with the Montgomery County Board of Electors emailed plaintiff Christian Nascimento, chair of the Montgomery County Republican Committee, saying, As you no doubt are aware, we have yet to receive a certified ballot for the Department of State.
		As such, we will not be starting L&A on Monday.
	Once we have a certified ballot, my intention is to begin L&A testing on the next business day, but in any event, I will notify you once we have the ability to proceed.
	The names of the candidates that would appear in the 2024 general election belt were finalized by virtue of the decision of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on September 16th, the lawsuit states, and were certified by the Secretary of the Commonwealth.
	The next day, Dean contacted Nascimento to say the testing would begin on the 19th, just three days later.
	The emails included in the suit as exhibit three. Dean then rescheduled the testing for September 23rd,
	this coming Monday, but in a dramatic and unprecedented maneuver, the lawsuit states
	ballot distribution began on the 17th before the testing had taken place. Upon information and
	belief, defendants are the only county in Pennsylvania to have commenced voting without
	completing proper testing. Montgomery County Commissioner Neil Makija went as far as to
	brag about the ballots being sent out, saying on X he officially cast the first ballot. You know,
	we read that already.
	Despite testing not being done.
	Excuse me.
	The suit states, remarkably, defendants were aware that LNA testing had not been completed on September 17, 2024, and publicly stated it would not commence until September 19, 2024, and would continue on weekdays until 3 p.m.
	The RNC demanded that Montgomery County election officials immediately cease the distribution of all mail-in absentee ballots until the satisfactory completion of all mandated testing, and that any and all mail-in absentee ballots distributed thus far must be immediately segregated upon return so that arrangements can be made to count these ballots by hand.
	The defendants failed to respond.
	Why did you break the law, Neil, when you just said you mailed out ballots that require statutorily required logic and accuracy testing?
	Both state law and the Secretary of State require testing.
	on the post offer concern that Mikesha has engaged in illegal activity by mailing out
	ballots and casting ballots prior to legal testing.
	Why did you break the law, Neil, when you just said you mailed out ballots that require
	statutorily required logic and accuracy testing, both state law and the secretary of state
	require testing.
	I got to tell you already, whether it's an error or otherwise, this is going to create
	chaos.
	Are we going to be able to track these ballots?
	Are they going to intercept them?
	Are they going to get rid of them?
	Are they then going to say that people don't realize their vote didn't count and they've got to re-vote again?
	Chaos.
	That is the game they're playing.
	On Friday, Mikejia complained the RNC was launching an attack on voting rights.
	Happy Election Day!
	This morning I cast the first general election ballot.
	I serve as the chief election official in PA's 3rd largest county, where we are working to ensure safe, secure, and accessible election for all.
	Get ready!
	He says, in response to Jack Posobiec, let's pull up his tweet here.
	Voting has begun in Pennsylvania, and so has the RNC's first line of attack on voting rights.
	Here in Montgomery County, they're threatening us under spurious legal grounds to breed distrust
	in voting systems, casting our ballots illegal without any legitimate basis. We test our
	machines. Voting here is safe, secure, and no level of intimidation will prevent access to
	the ballot of every Montco citizen. So in other words, they lie. They know they're lying because
	I'm sorry, these people want power. You know, I can't I can't really I can't really blame them.
	You know, I understand.
	I just think it's evil, right?
	I've met a lot of people in my day, and so have you.
	And they don't seem to be all with it.
	And you're sitting here going like, my guy, I just told you, what don't you understand?
	And we have this gag where we say, perhaps at that point we simply ask, if you didn't have breakfast yesterday morning, how would you have felt?
	And that's the joke, to imply the person is of low intelligence.
	And so here's how Democrats operate.
	And I'll tell you how I know this, because Michael Bloomberg admits it.
	They operate by saying, these people are so stupid.
	I'm done trying to convince them.
	I need only say things to them so they fall in line and do what I want them to do.
	And that's it.
	On the right, they say, inform everybody to the best of your abilities and let the decentralized system unfold.
	Now, there's pros and there's cons, but I believe the decentralized system with a strong leadership and proper advocacy is the right way to go.
	It's challenging, though, right?
	I was thinking about this last night.
	What would the world be like if I was supreme dictator?
	I was just in charge of everything.
	Iron fist, bang the gavel, whatever I say goes.
	Well, the problem is, I might say something like, this is the problem with dictatorship, right?
	Let's say I came out and I said, guys, What we're looking right now with oil is the collapse of the petrodollar.
	And this means that we are going to see imports become more expensive.
	We're going to have to build up the American economy and secure our borders to make sure that our labor force is secure.
	We want unemployment low, but you don't want no unemployment because there need to be open positions available.
	If the economy is expanding properly, there will be jobs available.
	Unemployment means people.
	So you want job availability with some unemployment for flexibility in the market.
	And this means that we're never going to have a perfect system, but it does mean we're going to have to drill for more oil.
	I recommend Alaska, right?
	Sounds reasonable, doesn't it?
	A bunch of Greta Thunbergs show up and they scream, oil is going to kill everyone!
	And I can go to them and say, guys, listen, okay?
	Which would you prefer?
	The death of individuals who need food, shelter, heat, etc?
	Or Political platitudes.
	I mean, we go through the data and we're going to try to seek out energy forms so we have a balance here.
	We do want to reduce maybe fossil fuels that overproduce carbon emissions.
	I can give you that one.
	However, we are not going to sacrifice our economy, the lives of the American people, their pursuit of happiness for a political scientific maybe that you believe is true that others believe is not true.
	So what I can tell you is this, the compromise?
	Nuclear energy.
	We're going to start establishing nuclear power plants that are emission-free, that have a high return on energy invested, better than oil.
	It's a solution for all.
	And then they're going to go, nuclear energy is going to kill everybody!
	And you're like, oh my god.
	So what happens?
	They riot, they smash things.
	You can't just rule with an iron fist.
	It is very, very difficult to navigate these systems.
	That means it's a constant state of compromise and development, but you have to be brave and you have to be willing to do difficult things.
	You can't just rule with an iron fist, because what happens is eventually they just say you're a bad guy and they remove you.
	Plus, let's be real, no single individual knows how to run an entire system like this.
	You need decentralized voices.
	You need the wisdom of the crowd.
	But I don't blame these Democrats for thinking this way.
	I blame them for succumbing to the dark temptation of trying to seize control from everybody else.
	And I gotta be honest, there are some that I think may be well-intentioned, albeit I would describe it as evil.
	And there are some that are just outright evil!
	You know, like Michael Bloomberg, I don't think is... I wouldn't call him overt evil.
	He genuinely thinks people are too stupid.
	He's like Dr. Doom, right?
	Like, Dr. Doom's a bad guy.
	But let me tell you about Dr. Doom, okay?
	You Marvel fans, you know this one.
	For those that don't know anything about it, just don't worry.
	My point is that great writers have imagined these scenarios.
	So, Dr. Doom is a character.
	He believes he should rule the world.
	Why?
	He says, I have looked into every future and humanity dies in every single one except the one where I'm in charge.
	He genuinely believes it.
	Not that it's true.
	And they've also written many comics where when Doctor Doom actually does succeed, it's a utopia.
	It's a paradise.
	I remember watching this when I was a kid, this Spider-Man cartoon.
	They go to a different dimension or something, they go to a planet where Dr. Doom, the bad guy, is in charge, and like, we have to stop him, Doom's evil, and everyone loves him.
	And they're like, no!
	He's fixed everything!
	Unfortunately, that's fantasy.
	That's never gonna happen.
	So we can't sit back and let Democrats just decide they're going to lie, cheat, and steal for power because they're smarter than everybody because I got news for you.
	They think men can get pregnant!
	Okay, and you know, I'm just sorry.
	If that's the reality you live in, then you are just suffering from histrionic, narcissistic, and borderline personality disorder, where you think you should be in charge of everything, but you really have no idea how the world works.
	As the saying goes, my friend, the, uh, the, what do they say?
	That the, the capable are, I don't know the exact quote, but it's, uh, the ignorant are so confident, while the capable are so full of doubt, or something like that.
	You know, if you're aware of the system and you understand how the system works, then you're constantly questioning, because you don't know everything, and you're like, man, I really do feel this is the right move, but I just don't know, so maybe I can't make this move.
	Stupid people don't know anything, and they're like, ah, there's only one way forward!
	There's a great clip that's going viral from Bill Maher, talking to a scientist, who said, the Great Barrier Reef is at the highest levels you've ever seen.
	This climate change stuff is not correct.
	Bill Maher's like, well, How is it better now?
	How is the Great Barrier Reef coming back?
	What have we done?
	And he's like, nothing.
	I don't know.
	That's a fair point, huh?
	We have no idea, like, just started happening.
	Now what he says is, we can certainly get rid of pollution.
	We can stop, you know, dumping things in the water.
	We can stop overfishing.
	We can stop dumping plastics.
	Agreed.
	Agreed.
	But this lie.
	I think it's a lie about climate change.
	I certainly think pollution is causing a lot of problems, but I think they lie for political power.
	They tell you the world's gonna end and you gotta vote for them.
	Why?
	Because, you know what?
	Let me put it this way.
	I just watched that movie the other night, The Invention of Lying.
	Talk about a great movie, okay?
	Ricky Gervais lives in a world where nobody can lie.
	Everything is literal and verbatim.
	There's some plot holes, however.
	And he figures out how to lie for the first time.
	There's no word for it.
	And he asks, if you could do anything, what would you do?
	And these two guys are like, boobs.
	So he goes outside and he tells a woman.
	He's like, please, ma'am.
	And she's like, I'm not interested in talking to you.
	Nice try.
	And he says, if you don't, you know, with me, the world will end.
	And because nobody knows what lies are, everything's literal.
	She goes, do we have time to go to a motel?
	And he goes, he's like, I don't want to do this.
	This is terrible.
	The point is, these are the kind of people that fall for what the Democrat party line is and the corporate press.
	They basically say, the world is going to end unless you vote for me.
	And they go, Do I have time to make it to the voting booth?
	You do!
	Quick, go vote for me!"
	And they go, okay!
	And then 10 years later, people are like, hey, how come the world didn't end?
	It's like, well, it's because you voted for me.
	And they go, oh, that makes sense!
	That's the world we live in.
	Now certainly, I'd agree more with the Ricky Gervais point where he's like, you know what, this is not a good idea.
	I don't want to trick this woman into, you know what I mean?
	He's like, we shouldn't be doing that.
	We shouldn't.
	We should be honest with people.
	Well, basically in the whole movie, he just lies endlessly and gains tons of power and fame and all that stuff, and it is a bit silly.
	But, funny, I'll give you a plot hole, however.
	A plot hole is that there's one line where Rob Lowe says to Ricky Gervais, he says, you know, Shelley has insulted you in this way.
	I can't repeat what was said in the movie.
	Tina Fey would get cancelled today if she tried to say these things.
	He says, I'll just say this, I'll cut the insult in half.
	He says, she called you overweight, and she goes, no I didn't, I said he was fat.
	She says something else, but my point is this.
	If in the show, you can't lie, but you can be wrong, then certainly you couldn't just lie your way through everything, because people would just be like, you must be incorrect, sir.
	But they could have written through that one.
	Anyway, my point is this.
	What we are watching right now, With these moves coming out of Pennsylvania, is exactly what everyone already expected.
	They are going to start making moves, and in violation of the law, it is the shadow campaign.
	Why did this man release ballots that were not properly tested?
	Why?
	Why are we having... It's a month and a half to election day!
	We're supposed to have election day!
	Nope.
	So this guy releases ballots untested early, and it makes you wonder, doesn't it?
	Well, my friends, the state of the country is as such, and I don't know what else to tell you.
	We're gonna be watching this stuff go down the whole time.
	I would not be surprised.
	Actually, you know what?
	I'll say this.
	I'm surprised right now we don't have 50,000 lawsuits already.
	Seriously, I'm surprised we aren't already seeing just 10,000 lawsuits in every state.
	We're a month and a half from the election.
	Maybe the dam will break now.
	Already a lawsuit is being filed.
	How about any other lawsuits pertaining to any other similarities?
	Are the Republicans prepared for the procedural election apparatus the Democrats will deploy to win this thing?
	You can argue to the high heavens, my friends.
	You can go to every single person in this country and say, here's the definitive proof.
	And the Democrats are going to say, none of that matters.
	All we have to do is ballot harvest.
	And then we win.
	If the Republicans think this is going to be a game of convincing people to vote, they've lost.
	Because Democrats have long figured out this is not about convincing people to vote.
	It's about convincing people to write their name on a piece of paper and send it in.
	I certainly hope the Republicans are prepared for this because this is PA.
	Pennsylvania is the state.
	Nate Silver says if Kamala Harris does not win here, she has a 4% chance of winning.
	Of course, as of right now, Nate Silver is predicting Harris to win.
	Trump was enjoying a mighty high, but as of recent, it's begun to decline.
	That being said, I don't buy it.
	I really don't.
	I'll tell you why.
	In 2016, the polls favored Hillary Clinton by about 3.2 points.
	In 2020, they favored Joe Biden by 3.6.
	They got worse!
	Take a look at all these polls.
	The Silver Bulletin.
	Let's entertain.
	Let's lower and say 3-point swing.
	If it is true that we will see in this election a three point overestimation for the Democrat
	candidate, that means Trump is up one point seven in Pennsylvania, one point two in Wisconsin.
	He's up point six in in in Michigan, three point one in North Carolina, three point nine in Georgia,
	three point eight in in Arizona, six point nine in Florida, one point eight in Nevada.
	He's still down in Minnesota by 3.2.
	He's up in Texas 8.2 and down in New Mexico by 5.2.
	If we shift this for the Republicans by three points based off of the biases we saw in 16 and 20, Trump is winning every swing state.
	They ain't getting Minnesota or New Mexico.
	But what's interesting is that Minnesota is now being included, it appears, because it swung in the last month up nearly two points for the Republican.
	New Mexico seems to be completely irrelevant.
	So we'll see, my friends.
	We'll see.
	We got more to come on this special Saturday show.
	I've got many more segments, of course.
	We are going to be jumping into the... Where is this one?

unidentified		All right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Here we go.
		We got a bunch of Super Chats.
		They're flying in, ladies and gentlemen.
		The Super Chats are flying in.
		Ginger Rogers says, Courts in Arizona ruled 98,000 people whose citizenship hadn't been confirmed can vote in the full ballot.
		So concerned about my state.
		Wow.
		That's crazy.
		Finkenpharm says, What do you think about this definition of rights?
		A right is an action that does not result in harm to others.
		Therefore, everything I do that doesn't mean harm to others is my right to do.
		I disagree.
		I disagree.
		Speech can harm people.
		We just, we don't care about that degree of harm.
		I mean, it's minimal, if anything.
		What I mean is like, you can say things to someone that cause them emotional distress, where they actually have a cortisol buildup, and then they actually, it negatively impacts their health.
		But we don't think that really is that big of a deal.
		It's harm, sure, but it's like, grow the F up.
		These pink underbelly woke leftists can't handle being called mean words and they lose their minds over it.
		Sorry, we draw the line at harm being like physically impairing somebody, maiming or damaging their body in some way.
		You know, my view of rights are behaviors, actions, and functions that is required for the efficient purpose of life, be fruitful and multiply, survive.
		And you think about the Bill of Rights and the things that are in it, the need to communicate, express ideas, defend yourself, be secure in your property and your person, not being locked in a box, all of these things are pertaining to how you literally, what you need to do to survive.
		But there is a definition, and it's relatively vague.
		It is, a moral or legal entitlement is a right.
		Or to obtain something in a certain way, but it's a moral or legal entitlement is the general definition of what rights are.
		And there's another way to define it, but it's My view of it is, the morality that I see on what rights is, because we had this debate with Andrew Wilson, he said rights don't exist, I was like, they do.
		My view is that you can infringe upon someone's rights, but rights exist.
		I need to speak.
		Why?
		At the most fundamental level, hey look, there's a bear!
		That saves a person from being killed by a bear, or at least increases their chance of survival.
		Oh no, the bear is coming right for me.
		I better defend myself.
		So a right to keep in bear arms.
		These are aspects of the bigger picture.
		You can't live in my house.
		You can't take my stuff.
		You can't search me for no reason.
		All things have to do with the right to be secure in your possessions and your person.
		If I can't Have food saved for the winter?
		I will die!
		So we must... These are our rights.
		That is to say, I view them as God-given and unalienable because if you can't do these things, you die.
		Or at least it becomes extremely difficult to become dependent on others.
		So we enshrine in the Constitution restrictions on government from infringing upon our rights.
		Just because someone can punch you in the face doesn't mean the right doesn't exist.
		You still need to do these things to survive.
		We all recognize, hey, we all need to store food and not have anyone take it from us if we're gonna live.
		Agreed.
		So I think it's a right regardless.
		You can have an entire society saying, no food for you, then you die.
		So without that capability to be securing your person, your property, et cetera, you die, you don't exist, and that's the end.
		That's how I view rights.
		Alright, we'll grab a couple more before we talk about the IRS.
		Old Fart Gaming says, why is anyone talking about thorium nuclear reactors?
		There's little to no waste, and we pioneered this technology back in the 50s before big oil shut it down.
		China's currently working on thorium, but we already have it.
		Yes, it's called thorium salt liquid reactors.
		And sure, the big problem is these crackpot Greta Thunbergs, who are like, oil is bad, we must shut it down!
		And then you're like, okay, can we do nuclear?
		It's better.
		And they're like, no, nuclear Fukushima kill everybody!
		And you're like, Greta, please, can we have anything?
	And she's like, no, we can't wait 30 years, we have to stop all of it now.
	And you're like, if you shut down fossil fuels today, 60 million people die in three days.
	Yeah, I call that genocide, dude.
	The elderly, the infirm, children, diabetics, come on.
	Food production stops, food transportation stops.
	Jeez Louise.
	Anyway.
	We're going to jump to this next segment, but my friends, do us all a favor.
	Go to buycominghome.com.
	Buy the song!
	You know, we sold $35,000.
	I think it was $35,000.
	It's probably around $40K now, if together again.
	We teamed up with The Daily Wire, and they pulled some shenanigans.
	I mentioned this.
	They pulled some shenanigans on us.
	And they claimed that the sales we got didn't count, and we are just like, holy crap, are you kidding me?
	Dude, we did everything, you know what?
	So now we're just like, go on iTunes, buy the song for 99 cents there.
	I think if we got like 50,000 sales in one week, it's going to be like a Billboard Hot 100 song.
	I don't know how much that matters.
	I mean, we really want to smash into the cultural institutions and demand that, you know, they open up.
	They can't keep us out forever.
	Look at what happened with Am I a Racist?
	They were blocking the corporate press.
	The woke entertainment industry will not review the film.
	They're starting to get some reviews, but they won't review it.
	And it's apolitical.
	Certainly it mocks woke grifters, but he never preaches about his politics or conservatism.
	He just mocks these people, Borat style, and it's funny.
	I think that's why they won't go near it.
	So if you want to support our work, but for now, let's talk about, oh, Kamala Harris.
	In a move that explains exactly why, my friends, you should not vote for Kamala Harris.
	The IRS has endorsed her!
	I absolutely love this.
	IRS agents endorse Kamala Harris.
	And we have this from MCR-TV.
	The IRS agents union endorses Kamala Harris, citing her Inflation Reduction Act windfall.
	I'd like to give a round of applause to the IRS for possibly one of the best moves in support of Donald Trump.
	Everybody hates the IRS.
	Sorry.
	They just do.
	Did you know that the IRS has armed law enforcement agents?
	People don't realize this.
	Because they actually have to go and enforce tax law.
	I'm totally fine with it.
	I mean, I'm not a big fan of taxes.
	But I recognize so long as we have taxes, you are going to need enforcement.
	And so they have armed IRS agents.
	They bought them a bunch of guns and hollow point bullets.
	And everybody was like, I'm kind of worried about that.
	So basically, here's what's happening.
	Why are they endorsing Kamala Harris?
	Well, my friends, I'm going to tell you in my words.
	It's because thanks to Kamala and Joe Biden, 87,000 new agents got jobs.
unidentified		87,000.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And those 87,000 employees are probably like, I like my job.
		I like that I got hired.
		Everybody should vote for Kamala Harris.
		Trump's going to fire IRS agents.
		That's right.
		So they're not going to endorse him.
		Welcome to reality, my friends.
		They lied.
		They claimed the 87,000 agents are going to be there so they can go after the millionaires and the billionaires that are not paying their fair share.
		The millionaires and the billionaires, they say.
		Yeah, well, I gotta tell you this.
		There's very few of them, and you don't need 87,000 employees to go after a tiny handful of ultra-wealthy individuals who, by the way, have the means to fight back through lawyers.
		The 87,000 agents are for you, America.
		I'll tell you what's going to happen next year.
		For some of you, it already happened.
		I know because you've messaged me.
		You went to the mailbox.
		You're going through your mail.
		You got some bills.
		You're living paycheck to paycheck.
		Milk is expensive.
		Bread and eggs are expensive.
		You're trying to make ends meet.
		I've seen the videos.
		There's a dad saying, I can't afford to feed my daughters.
		What am I supposed to do?
		The costs are too high.
		And as you're going through these bills, what do you see?
		IRS sends you a letter.
		And you open it up, and there it is, and it says that you owe $223.
		And you say to yourself, what do I owe the IRS $223 for?
		This is ridiculous.
		Now there are services, they've sponsored the show in the past, they say any amount they come after you for, call them, they will help you.
		But for the average person, and you probably should do everything you can and look at it as best you can.
		But you might get a bill for $75.
		And you're like, What's it worth?
		Most people are just gonna pay it.
		They're just gonna pay it.
		That's the point of 87,000 new agents.
		Because they're coming for you, middle America.
		They're coming for you, working-class Joes.
		I already have people messaging me saying they got a bill for a thousand bucks or something like that, and they have no idea how to pay it.
		Well, here we go!
		The union that represents the nation's IRS agents announced Wednesday it is endorsing Kamala Harris.
		Vice President Harris has played a role in one of the most pro-labor administrations in history, they say.
		It's the National Treasury Employees Union.
		The administration also delivered agency budgets that provide federal employees with additional staffing and resources, including significant new investments to rebuild the IRS under the Inflation Reduction Act.
		Harris, they say.
		However, the IRS expansion won't just increase union membership.
		It'll also help the agency to collect an additional $5 trillion of tax increases Harris wants.
		Analysis by Americans for Tax Reform finds.
		Harris's proposed tax increase will kill jobs in the private sector, but create jobs for IRS agents.
		Agents certainly appreciate her call to make the IRS even larger and more powerful if she wins the presidency.
		Agents will be hired and deployed to implement the $5 trillion of tax increases Harris wishes to impose over the next decade.
		And you know, they'll lie to you.
		They're saying, no, no, there will be no new taxes on anybody who's earning less than 400,000.
		Trump's just saying that's because he wants to give his millionaire buddies tax cuts.
		They're not going to raise your taxes.
		What they're going to do is they're going to say, you forgot to pay a tax you already owed.
		They're going to say, no, no, we didn't change the tax law.
		We just realized that you missed us.
		How do I know?
		They want reporting on all transactions over $600 so they can nickel and dime you.
		What do we have here?
	Someone just threw in a chat.
	And it disappeared on me, but I thought it was particularly relevant.
	Someone said, I made $78,000 a year and the IRS sent me a letter yesterday for $3,000.
	I'm telling you, people need to understand this.
	Here's another user.
	I got a $700 bill out of nowhere.
	I just paid it.
	No idea what it was for.
	This is exactly what I am telling you.
	This is what I warned about when they started pushing this stuff.
	The goal is going to be to nickel and dime you.
	And so when they say, no new taxes, no new taxes, what they're really saying is, we don't need to modify tax code.
	We need only interpret the existing code.
	Now, imagine this.
	You file your taxes.
	You do everything right, you go to H&R Block or something, or what's the other one?
	I forgot the other one.
	H&R Block, that's the big one.
	TurboTax, they do this, right?
	And you're just like, I don't know, I filed my taxes, I made 80K this year.
	It says, here's how much you owe in state and federal, and you're going, ugh, my refund is gonna be so low.
	Not to mention the idea of a refund is crazy, they took extra money from you and then give it back to you and you're happy about it.
	It was yours to begin with!
	I know people who, at the end of the year, paid their taxes.
	Actually, this happened to me.
	I got a job.
	I paid my taxes.
	I asked them, like, how do I fill this out?
	They said, do this.
	I went to H&R Block.
	I filled it all out.
	And then they went, you owe $7,000.
	And I was like, what?
	I was like, I paid all my taxes the entire time.
	And they were like, yep.
	Too bad.
	And I'm like, I... I don't have it.
	And they're like, that's fine.
	You've got several months to pay it.
	So just save up now from every paycheck.
	And to be fair, I was making well enough, so...
	It took me a couple months to pay off the entire seven grand.
	Basically setting aside my paycheck to pay off taxes I didn't realize I owed, which is nuts.
	Because I went to the... When I filled all the forms, I did them exactly as I was told.
	And then they said, oh, well, you know what?
	I don't know.
	Rule changes.
	You owe more money now.
	And I'm like, I don't even know why.
	What am I supposed to do?
	And so a combination of savings and setting aside paychecks to try and pay this off, and it hurt.
	I'm like, there goes my savings.
	But you know what?
	What are you gonna do?
	I can't go up against that machine.
	Who can?
	No, I gotta tell you this, my friends.
	You gotta ask yourself why it is the IRS, of all agencies, is supporting Kamala Harris.
	It's because she is the party, my friends, of the federal bureaucratic state.
	So everything that is bad and bloated in government will be made worse under President Kamala Harris.
	No, I want to point this out for you, my friends.
	I am not an overt partisan individual, despite the fact I'm saying Kamala bad, Trump good.
	Of course, on the surface, you might say that's overtly partisan.
	No, I'm just trying to understand the truth.
	And I can tell you the truth right now.
	I can tell you all about it.
	Donald Trump guarantees you no utopia.
	Donald Trump has character flaws and defects.
	Donald Trump has lied about many things, but usually they're about his personal endeavors, and they're silly.
	Although I will say, in the past several years, Trump seems to have chilled out on this quite a bit.
	I'll give you an example, because a lot of people say, what did Trump lie about?
	Okay, so when Kamala Harris said, people leave in his rallies, he goes, nobody leaves my rallies.
	Nobody's like, dude, come on, people leave your rallies.
	And so it's like, it's not a lie in the sense that he's claiming he's worth more than he is.
	It's not a lie in the sense that he's claiming he'll build a wall but then he won't.
	It's a lie in the sense where he's defending his ego.
	And he's big for that.
	I think Trump is very much motivated by ego, but I think he's also just trying to do good.
	And I believe that he wants to do right by people.
	He wants to keep his promises.
	I think he's far from a perfect individual.
	But I think no new wars was good for this country.
	I think securing our borders is good for this country.
	I think all of these things can be looked at mathematically.
	And what do you get?
	I gotta tell you, you give me Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump 2016, I ain't voting.
	You give me Mitt Romney, Barack Obama, I ain't voting.
	You give me Barack Obama McCain, I voted Obama.
	Why?
	Because I was tricked and I was lied to as a young man and I believed this was something different.
	And then Obama killed American citizens, did everything the same, and I said, uh, yeah, they're all ours.
	But then I can tell you this.
	My position is not Democrat good, Republican good, none of that.
	I hate both parties.
	It's simply this.
	Donald Trump represents no new wars.
	That's what he did in his presidency.
	You can insult him all day and night, all day and night, fine, don't care.
	You can say he's disgusting, he's ludicrous, that's fine.
	You can say he's a lecherous old man, he's a dog, uh-huh, yeah, okay.
	I can say a lot about Kamala Harris in much the same way, to be honest.
	But I'm going to throw those aside.
	People say, Kamala Harris and Mayor Willie Brown and Montel Williams and blah, blah, blah.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever.
	Like Donald Trump's got several wives and things like that.
	Whatever, man.
	You're allowed to insult or criticize for whatever you want to do.
	I can just tell you this.
	You're never going to convince me that Donald Trump is a saint.
	You're never going to convince me that he is of utmost nobility and decorum.
	He's Trump.
	We know what he is.
	We know what he offers.
	We know about mean tweets.
	I think he's improved greatly over the past several years in this field, to be fair.
	But no new wars.
	And so that's it.
	I'm like, guys, I don't like the Republican Party, Mitch McConnell, you know, like, come on, like, Lindsey Graham.
	Historically, Paul Ryan back in 16, 17, or in 17.
	I think he became Speaker in 17.
	I don't see these guys as being effective, good leaders.
	You know, look at where they've brought us.
	No new wars, though.
	Better trade agreements.
	I mean, the Teamsters didn't endorse Clinton in 96 because of NAFTA.
	And now they're refusing to endorse Kamala Harris because of the loss of jobs.
	You got UAW in Michigan saying the Democrats have cost them auto jobs.
	Donald Trump is a man who is, let's just call him far from perfect.
	But he's proven good policy in certain areas.
	So you come to me and you say Democrat, Republican, in a traditional sense.
	I say warmonger or warmonger.
	Bye!
	Donald Trump comes in, no new wars, and I go, I gotta be honest, I may not like the Republican Party or agree with them on all their positions, but I don't know how you deny that.
	I can speak to, you know, Dave Smith or Maus or other Libertarians, and they may still say I'm not going to vote.
	But I say, I don't know how you tell the Mises Caucus, the Libertarian Party, that you've got a candidate right now who's the first president in my lifetime who started no new wars, and you're going to be like, I'm voting for somebody else.
	How are you going to vote for Chase Oliver, who you know can't win, when Donald Trump didn't start any wars and actually sought to end them?
	And don't get me wrong, he's been criticized for drone strikes and other things, and I'm like, I get it!
	You're right!
	And he didn't start any new wars!
	It's like, bro, you're really gonna let that one go?
	Dude, I don't believe you for a second, okay?
	You are not being reasonable or rational if you're saying, I have an opportunity to vote for the first president in our lives who didn't start a war, and you're like, but he drone-striked.
	The drone-strikes were already happening.
	The war had already begun.
	He didn't start any new ones.
	He's your best chance.
	At the very least, you can say you supported the guy who was winding down and pulling our troops out.
	And that's it.
unidentified		That's it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's not about being partisan.
		It's about just that.
		So my friends, by all means, vote for IRS agent Kamala.
		And then you're going to pay everything in taxes.
		And they're going to say, no, no, no new taxes.
		Yeah, don't worry.
		They'll come after the existing ones.
		I'm going to leave it there.
		Next segment's coming up.
		I don't know.
		I don't know if the schedule's going to be exciting.

		Buycominghome.com purchased the song Pre-Order coming out this coming Friday.
		It's a song about coming home to find that your cities have been destroyed by the people who came before you and they left you with nothing and destroyed your birthright.
		And it's about how we're not going to stand forward anymore.
		So again, smash that like button.
		We'll see you on the next segment.
		For those that are watching live, super chats.
		We'll grab a couple now.
		And then, uh, what do we have next on the roster here?
		I didn't get into the White Dudes for Harris thing.
		We do have, uh, we got a lot of stories.
		We got a lot of stories here.
		Jake Tapper calling out Kamala Harris.
		But I think maybe we'll go with this one, Why Society is Failing Men and Boys.
		This is a great one by Phil Labonte.
		I think it's pretty good.
		And, uh, it's an opinion piece.
		I think there's a lot to go through here that I want to tackle.
		But we'll grab some of your superchats for now.
		Alright, Legacy Farm in Homestead says, Bring back Shimcast!
		Shamus!
		It's up to him.
		He abandoned us, you know?
		That's why we call the cat James now.
		You see, I caught a cat in our garage.
		The way it works is, in the morning I open the garage and ride my motorcycle out to go to work.
		We leave the garage open because we live in the middle of nowhere.
		When I come home, there's a cat sitting in the back of the garage.
		And I come in with my bike and he bolts out, frantic and panicked.
		And so I'm like, I'm gonna catch this cat.
		So, I lower the garage door down, and I take it off the track, so it's just, basically, you can lift it up.
		And I put a skateboard, so that it was held up about, what would that probably be, like, eight and a half, nine inches?
		When I come back, what do I do?
		Well, I don't know if the cat's in there.
		I pull the board out, boom, door closes.
		Go inside, there's the cat, freaking out, running around like a lunatic.
		We got him.
		Then we did what we called a Stockholm Syndrome, where we put him in a cage, and we put a trap in the garage, because he's running around pooping everywhere.
		We put food in the cage, and eventually he gets so hungry, he goes in to get it, catches him.
		We then bring him inside, and we give him a de-lousing.
		Not literally, but I sprayed him down to clean him off, I was giving him a bath, and he's freaking out, and he's like, argh, yelling at me.
		And we tried to figure out a name, so we decided to call him Seamus.
		Kind of as a joke, we were like, we need a name for him, and Seamus was with us in the car, and I was like, we'll call him Seamus, and Seamus was like, you guys are bad friends.
		Jokingly.
		And then now, however, Seamus abandoned us.
		He's been gone.
		And so I said, the cat's name is now James.
	That's right.
	James is the Anglo version of Seamus.
	Seamus is, of course, the Irish, Gaelic.
	James!
	I call him James now, because Seamus, you left!
	I'm half kidding, but I do call the cat James, to be honest.
	Seamus is coming back, however.
	I believe he'll be here in a couple of weeks.
	He'll be joining the show for a couple of weeks.
	Really excited to have him back as we get close to the election.
	His latest Freedom tunes, if you guys haven't seen it, have been amazing!
	Definitely check those out.
	Let's grab a couple more superchats.
	Duanka says, my wife got an IRS fine saying she didn't pay into 2020 taxes $877.
	Her memory is awesome and she sent them a picture of the check she wrote.
	Keep records.
	Shout out Christian Golf, St.
	Fairway.
	Right on.
	I'm telling you.
	It's happened to me before, and there was one where, like, I'm filing my taxes and they say, no, no, you owe this extra.
	I've also gotten letters in the mail where it's like, the IRS says you owe this amount, and I'm like, for what?
	For when?
	Like, especially now, we have plural accountants.
	Whatever, man.
	So you gotta keep your records.
	You gotta keep your records.
	Clank Clank says, I still haven't gotten my refund 2023 tax return.
	That's crazy, dude.
	TheWhiteTrashPanda says, don't use iTunes, where else can I buy your music?
	It might be up on Amazon as well, but right now it's pre-order.
	I think pre-order might only be iTunes, so when the song releases, we have from Friday till Thursday to get as many streams, plays, and sales as possible.
	If we get a certain amount, we hit the charts, and then they're forced to acknowledge it.
	I'm pretty sure every single song we've put out has charted in some degree.
	Maybe except one.
	There was one where we didn't do any promotion.
	And we needed, because we needed, we've promoted all the songs, we've like, week long, hey everybody, buy the song, buy the song, we've put it all in our clips and everything.
	And there was one where we didn't, specifically because we needed a control song to see what natural organic play would be if we upload a song and don't really say anything about it.
	And I think it was something like 500k total plays on the song without doing any kind of promotion, which is really good.
	But without being in digital streaming playlists or having access to this, which the big networks don't want to put us in—surprise, surprise—it makes it difficult.
	That's why we have to do heavy promotion.
	But for now, iTunes, go to buycominghome.com.
	All right, we'll grab one more here.
	PokePaul says, in 2020, I sold my condo in California, moved back to Chicagoland.
	I had only pocketed around $15K for the sale.
	Last year, the IRS sent me a bill for over $10,000.
	We fought and won after seven months.
	It was insane.
unidentified		Wow.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		All right, Sparky Kev says YouTube normally notifies me of stream, but not today.
		I forgot you said you were going live today.
		Well, I used to do the show every day, Monday to Monday, Monday to Sunday, whatever you want to call it.
		And then I think it was like, probably what was it?
		Two years ago, two and a half years ago, I stopped doing the weekend shows.
		Well, I'll tell you this.
		Um, I don't know.
		I got to a point where I was kind of just thinking, the election's coming up, someone said, do more shows, and much to the chagrin of my family, I said, yeah, look, if I can do two hours in the morning, I'm done with the morning livestream by around 1 p.m.
		So I wrap the livestream at noon, then I do editing, thumbnails, all that stuff, I'm done by 1.
		I got the rest of the day to do whatever.
		So, I don't know.
		Maybe they want to get breakfast on certain days, but if I do the show every single day, we can't.
		But there is a massive advantage in doing more and working more.
		Aside from just working more produces more, it boosts you all around.
		The more people watch, the more they watch every day.
		When I was doing the Morning Show every day, the Tim Pool Daily Show on iTunes and Spotify was the 34th biggest podcast in the world.
		Isn't that crazy?
		Hit number 34!
		Now, I think TimCast IRL fluctuates in the 100 to 200s, and we do that five times a week, but adding weekends just drives you straight to the top.
		So, share the show with your friends, my friend!
		If you appreciate me working seven days a week, my family won't.
		Let's talk about this story.
		In an op-ed for Fox News, Phil Labonte, lead singer of All That Remains, writes why society is failing men and boys.
		We're in danger of losing a whole generation of men and families they'd help build.
		He writes, Every day we see more grown men and young boys dropping out of school, dropping out of work and choosing to drop out of society entirely.
		They're getting lost in distractions, chasing comfort and losing the sense of purpose that used to drive men to live with meaning and ambition.
		We need to turn this around.
		Phil says, in 1998 I started the heavy metal band All That Remains.
		And in the past 25 years, I've performed for hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.
		Most of them are young men.
		I've had countless conversations with them, and often their stories are devastating.
		I hear about addiction, depression, and a feeling that there is no hope.
		Some of them tell me that my music helped them find a little light in the darkness.
		But while I'm glad I can be that for some, the fact that so many feel this way is a massive problem.
		The foundation of any strong society is built on family, faith, and community.
		And without strong male figures and role models, these foundations start to crack.
		I consider myself lucky I had a dad who showed me what being a man is all about.
		He was a blue-collar guy from Western Mass.
		He was a machinist, a construction worker, an entrepreneur, and a business owner.
		While we didn't do the same type of work, he was and has always been the type of man I aspire to be.
		So many young men today don't have that, and it's showing.
		And I'll add this.
		This is why Jordan Peterson became so popular.
		It's not about him complaining about censorship and gender ideology.
		It was because his message was bigger than that.
		Millions of people tuning in to watch his lectures.
		Watch what he has to say.
		Why?
		Because... You know, it's funny.
		He's a professor.
		You don't often associate that kind of personality with a strong male role model.
		But here's the guy who sometimes just starts crying, and he's like, the chimpanzees!
		You're a chimpanzee full of snakes!
		And it's like, you're like, why is the man so upset?
		But then he says, clean your room, bucko!
		You gotta clean your room before you change the world!
		And he was sending a message to young men about responsibility, about purpose, about destiny, about what you must do.
		Now they attacked him for it.
		Toxic masculinity, alt-right, all this other fake garbage.
		They lied about everything.
		Because they didn't like the fact that young men found a male role model who said, clean your room, get in shape, get in gear.
		The machine state wants you, men, to be weak, feeble, and effeminate.
		They want your testosterone levels to fall from 1,000 to 100.
		It's funny because if you take a look at the healthy testosterone levels of a male, they tell you it's between 300 and 1,000.
	But I gotta tell you, if you're at 300, oof.
	You know, I know what happens is every guy says, no, you should be at 800 plus.
	It's like, okay guys, like, there's healthy ranges, but a certain degree it is better.
	Though they do say, like, if it's really high, it could be bad for your heart.
	But typically you want more testosterone if you're a dude.
	You got the Try Guys on BuzzFeed, famously, several years ago, these four dudes getting their testosterone levels checked, and their testosterone was the equivalent of an 80-year-old man.
	They were like in the 200s.
	Then you had this viral story about NPR hosts, who's like, my testosterone level was 114, and you're like, holy crap, dude.
	Like, that's called hypogonadism, where you're gonna be suffering from fatigue, depression, mood swings, hot flashes, just like, yo, you gotta get in gear.
	I recommend talking to a medical professional.
	They'll tell you what to do.
	I recommend, first of all, anaerobic exercise.
	Lifting.
	Exercise in general is good.
	Strength training builds testosterone.
	High-fat meat diets.
unidentified		You know, pulling the heart out from a fresh deer and eating its courage.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't really recommend that, although I think people do that.
		Maybe it's the liver.
		I don't know.
		You've got to be careful eating liver because it's got a lot of vitamin A. Anyway, I digress.
		There's a lot you can do There's a lot you can do to better yourself, to be healthy, and you must.
		You must do these things.
		Phil goes on to say, The National Fatherhood Initiative reports that 17.5 million children, nearly one in four, are growing up without a father at home.
		It's a huge number.
		Their research also shows that children raised at home without fathers result in greater likelihood of poverty, drug use, and prison.
		But it's not just about absent fathers.
		We're also seeing fewer and fewer spaces that exist exclusively for men and boys to connect with each other.
		This trend is problematic for several reasons.
		First, it reflects on the lack of value we place on men, which can be viewed as an outright hostility to men and boys in society.
		Second, because of the lack of value we place on men, they no longer feel their own value in society and choose to opt out altogether.
		One of the areas we're seeing this play out is education, where boys and men are falling behind.
		College enrollment among young Americans has declined gradually over the past decade.
		According to Pew Research, young men now make up only 44% of young college students, down from 47 in 2011.
		I'm going to pause right there, and I'm going to rebut you, good sir, Phil Labonte.
		I actually think it's good that young men aren't going to college.
		I understand the point you're making.
		They're falling behind in social expectations.
		But college is a waste of time and money and it's a detriment in the long run.
		You want to be a lawyer or a doctor, maybe you got to go to college because we have laws and requirements.
		In some places you don't actually have to go to college to get a bar, to pass the bar, sorry, to get your legal, to get your, to pass the bar exam and be able to practice as a lawyer.
		But usually it's like, if you want to work in sciences, it makes sense to go to a university.
		That's where they happen.
		But why are people going to college for music business?
		You know what I mean?
		I know people who have got degrees in music, but they never worked in music.
		Journalism degrees?
		Get out of here.
		But I get the point he's trying to make.
		He was going to say, and this gap in education is spilling downstream into the job market.
		Senator Marco Rubio noted in his report, The State of the Working and Non-Working Men, men are decreasingly participating in traditionally male jobs.
		Rubio notes, in 1985, the median male wage was sufficient to provide comprehensive health insurance, reliable transportation, good housing, a healthy diet, and college tuition.
		With 20% left over for other consumption and saving.
		The same man in 2022 could work the whole year to pay for middle class essentials and still come up 10 weeks short.
		It's not just about money either.
		According to the data from the National Institute of Mental Health, men in the US die by suicide at a rate of 4 times higher than women.
		Additionally, men are more likely to engage in illicit drug use and to begin using alcohol and drugs at a younger age.
		And drug use is more likely to result in a visit to the emergency room or in death for men than in women, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
		Well I can tell you why I think this is.
unidentified		Men are worthless.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		In society, a young man is worthless.
		Sorry!
		That's reality.
		And so it's tough.
		But don't get me wrong.
		You must develop your worth.
		You must build your worth.
		Now, I'm being kind of a dick on purpose.
		Men, of course, are not worthless.
		A young man has all the potential in the world to be a great leader, to be a CEO, to be whatever he wants to be.
		The issue is, as a young man, without attaining those skills, there's very little value.
		And this is the reality of evolutionary biology or the state of men and women.
		And women don't experience the same thing.
		Women, young women, and this has always been the case, have the highest value.
		And there's only men and women, okay?
		So, of course, it's just binary.
		Women have maximum value, men have minimal value.
		Over time, this inverts.
		A skilled male who has survived to molt is scarred and chiseled and ripped and hairy and 35 years old.
		And it's the winter in northern Europe.
		This is a guy who knows how to live.
		He's proven himself capable.
		He can survive.
		He can hunt.
		He can do all the things he needs to do.
		Women create life.
		That is intrinsic to women.
		Women don't have to earn the ability.
		They need only survive with the assistance of someone who is capable.
		Now feminists get offended by this because feminists want to be masculine.
		The masculine is starting at nothing and working towards everything with most men failing.
		That's true.
		And the feminine is to create life and to hold within you the intrinsic value of humanity and men seek to protect that.
		But men have to earn that position.
		And you know what?
		There are some men that reject this.
		They don't like that idea.
		And there are some women that reject this.
		They're feminists.
		They say, no, women should be girl bosses.
		You can be whatever you want to be.
		A dad, a guy can be a stay-at-home dad.
		I'm not saying you don't have to do this.
		I'm saying that through evolutionary biology and psychology, weak men didn't matter.
		You have 10 young men who were born and you have 10 young women.
		Those 10 young women must survive for they literally create life.
		Without them, there are no humans.
		Sorry young men, there's a reality here.
		Nine of you might die fighting a bear.
		The last one finishes the bear off and survives.
		And that one man, he can have all the kids in the world.
		But, he is but one component and cannot create the life himself.
		This has been the natural way that humans evolved.
		The strong men reproduce, the weaker men, it's natural selection.
		They call this greater male variability.
		But it's also why men vary so much relative to women.
		Greater male variability is that men are dramatically different.
		It's a wider bell curve in all aspects to women because this allows human evolution.
		Some weak men die off, don't have kids.
		Strong men have many kids.
		And the women are the ones who make those children.
		You can do whatever you want.
		You don't have to be a mom if you don't want to be a mom.
		You don't have to be a dad if you don't want to be a dad.
	I'm not saying that's the case.
	I'm saying this is just where biological roles come from.
	But the reason why I'm telling you this, young men, is that you have to earn it.
	You don't deserve it.
	There are many men who are jealous and angry that women can go on YouTube, for instance.
	Here's a fact in marketing.
	If a woman goes on YouTube and makes a video, she's gonna get tons of subscribers just very easily.
	It's just true.
	Not all women.
	Attractive women, for sure.
	But, you know, most women have an advantage, so long as they have an average capability.
	Guys like watching women.
	Men don't have that same luxury.
	It's much more difficult to get a foothold.
	You have to be the cream of the crop, the best of the best, rise above everyone else and work ten times as hard!
	But that's what being a man is all about!
	Who's complaining about that?
	Yo, if you're a guy and you're like, I don't think it's fair.
	Men are treated this way.
	Bye.
	Have fun.
	That's life.
	Okay?
	You've got to find the heaviest thing you can carry, and you can carry it.
	And you're going to be upset, and you're going to say, other people didn't have to do that.
	Well, there ain't nothing you can do about it.
	You're going to wake up one day, and you're going to see the son of a millionaire, and he's going to be wearing the finest clothes, riding the best equipment, with the best bike, the best motorcycle, whatever it is, and you're going to say, that's not fair!
	Well, too effing bad!
	If you want it, there's one way you get it.
	You grind.
	Because the research is clear.
	There's one thing that proves success.
	Perseverance.
	In all metrics, when they test this stuff, they find only one characteristic.
	It doesn't matter if you're rich.
	It doesn't matter if you're poor.
	It doesn't matter if you're ugly.
	It doesn't matter if you're missing a leg.
	I'm not kidding.
	It is when you give up, you fail.
	And so they actually did these tests where they tracked the individuals who are wealthy, they tracked individuals who are poor, and they found that wealthy individuals started successful businesses and made more money.
	Why?
	They never gave up.
	Poor individuals started making more money, pulled themselves out of poverty, started successful businesses.
unidentified		Why?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They never gave up.
		And here's the reality.
		You have an upper limit.
		Maybe your potential is limitless.
		Those people exist.
		Most people don't have that.
		That's okay.
		Maybe you were born in poverty, and you come from a broken home, and you don't know what to do with your life.
		It's going to be hard.
		You've got to figure it out.
		You have to solve those puzzles.
		But you know what?
		There are many stories of individuals who grew up with dirt.
		And you know where they ended up?
		At 40 years old, with three kids, making $60,000-$70,000 a year, Living in an okay house, with an okay car, and that was always okay.
		That's the American dream.
		Come from a broken home, you had a bad dad, you had a bad mom, whatever it may be, drug abusing mom, abusive dad, and you leave and you say, I will make something better.
		And you work as hard as you can, and it is hard, it'll never be easy.
		What would life be if it was just easy?
		What would anyone, everyone would be so bored.
		No, we want the challenge, that is our purpose.
		And you will work harder than you've ever worked, and you have to work harder than you've ever worked.
		And it is shocking to me that there are so many people who grew up on the internet, who grew up in this world, who think, I should not have to.
		Laughable.
		The world is your oyster, my friends.
		You do what you want to do.
		But don't be surprised if sitting around and not doing anything proves nothing for you.
		And I hear many.
		They say, I don't know what to do.
		I hear you.
		I've been there.
		You are willing to do the work.
		You are willing to make the moves.
		But what are the moves to be made?
		How do you get from here to there?
		It's not always so clear, is it?
		But I can tell you one thing.
		There's always exercise, eating right.
		There's always studying and reading books.
		Go out and make yourself the best version of yourself you can be.
		Maybe some of you right now, you don't know what it is.
		Do you play video games all day?
		You sit around.
		You're out of shape.
		You watch podcasts and you play video games all day.
		You say, I don't know what to do.
		Here's some advice.
		First, start eating better.
		Consult a health professional.
		Eat better.
		Eating is half the battle.
		You have to exercise.
		Proper blood flow to the brain, my friends.
		You must get that cardio in, those anaerobic exercises.
		Boost your T levels.
		It'll make you stronger, faster, better than you've ever been.
		You will be the best version of yourself.
		None.
		You say, but all I'm good at is playing video games.
		Start streaming, baby.
		It doesn't matter what you do.
		What you do is valuable if you put the work in and figure out how to make a business out of it.
		That's how many people started becoming podcasters and streamers.
		Now, I'm not going to pretend like that's the end all be all.
	But you've really got to just make yourself the best version of yourself.
	And whatever your passion is, you just can't give up.
	But you know what?
	It might be much more simple than that.
	Maybe you got a job at Starbucks, and you're making coffee.
	Just keep working.
	Take extra shifts.
	If you don't know what to do, and you have nothing to do, get in shape, eat right, and work double shifts.
	You know why?
	Because they're gonna be like, this dude is the master.
	They're gonna start asking you for advice.
	I mean, seriously, just at Starbucks, you might say, I don't wanna do that.
	Well, you better find your passion, baby, and you better find that hard work.
	Because not every job, I worked for two years at American Eagle Airlines in Chicago, basically American Airlines.
	And I worked double shifts, I worked when I had to, and I made the money that I had to, and it was tough.
	And it really was.
	I ultimately left, don't get me wrong, but I put the two years in.
	I'm just saying, whatever it is you choose to do, You eventually get better and better at it until you're good enough and you can find that success as long as you persevere.
	But I'll tell you this thing, my friends.
	I can't speak to what it is you do.
	I say video games because I understand streaming.
	I can talk about music because I make music.
	I went and played guitar on the streets.
	I've been playing music my whole life.
	I'd play some shows.
	I might get paid a hundred bucks for playing that one show, but they don't come all that often.
	Twice a month?
	I didn't pay the bills.
	So I went into the subway in Chicago, got a permit, and I played songs.
	I played original songs.
	I made $7 an hour.
	You play music, people will throw you tips because they're being nice.
	I played Top 40s.
	I learned how to play some Neil Young, some Oasis, some CCR.
	I started making $40 an hour.
	I played Foo Fighters, and I'd have people coming down being like, dude, yes!
	And they'd throw a 20 at me.
	And I was like, you play the songs people like.
	That's the service.
	And I'd always try to bring them in.
	You know, I was, how old was I at this point?
	I must have been 20?
	And I'm playing my crappy little acoustic guitar, and I'm playing My Hero by the Foo Fighters, and some, I remember this dude come up to me and said, bro, Foo Fighters, and he threw 20 bucks at me, and they start singing along, and this is a service for these people.
	They're working hard, they're on their way to work or school, and they heard this live version of a song they love, and they joined in.
	Magic.
	I'd go out in front of Wrigley Field.
	I'd play guitar.
	The dudes are getting out, they're drunk, they're older, they make money, and it was $200 an hour.
	To be fair, you only have about 40 minutes to an hour when the game's letting out, when everyone's partying, drunk, and excited.
	I remember a guy came up to me, and he was just cheering, and he was like, yes!
	And he just, he threw 50 bucks in the thing, and he was like, I love it.
	Life is good.
	You give them that joy and that happiness when you're playing that music.
	And that's just something I did.
	I don't know what it is that you can do.
	But I can just leave with these final words.
	For one, shout out to Phil for the op-ed.
	My final words on this, I will tell you.
	Life is not easy.
	It was never supposed to be easy.
	Why would you want an easy life anyway?
	You play video games.
	You know how it goes.
	When you put in the cheat codes and make your character invincible with unlimited ammo or whatever, it's fun for a second and then it gets boring.
	No, climbing the mountain, the journey is what makes it all worth it.
	When your muscles are burning, and you make it to the top of that mountain, when you lift that, when you finish that final rep, and you feel that pain, and you just feel it.
	You did it!
	That feels great.
	That's life.
	If it's easy, it's just boring.
	What's the point of playing a game that's not hard?
	How about you go play one of those walking simulators these woke game developers want to make, where you walk around?
	No, it's got to have a challenge to it.
	It's got to frustrate you a little bit, because when you finally beat it, you know you did it.
	So, Jordan Peterson says, find the heaviest thing you can lift and lift it.
	I say think about the hardest thing you can do that is productive, that will make the lives of you and everyone around you better.
	What is the hardest work that you can do?
	Is it solving a math puzzle?
	Is it making a video game?
	Getting a job and just working the hours?
	Whatever it may be, challenge yourself and do it.
	I saw a great meme.
	The guy said that he hated his job, and so what he did was, he started imagining that his boss was a quest giver in an RPG, and that the money he received was experience points, and all of a sudden it, you know, made him laugh.
	So he kept going to his boss saying, what can I get done for you right now?
	And the boss would say, go do these things.
	He would go and do them, and he would pretend like he was playing a video game and solving a quest to gain experience points.
	I think it's funny.
	I think it's funny that that's how you envision it.
	I mean, this should be the natural way you think about it.
	You know, for me, I remember that's kind of always how I viewed it.
	I always saved my money whenever I could working the jobs.
	But I'd say like, okay, what do I need to do right now to get from this point to this point?
	I want to break that barrier.
	I want to get to that point.
	And those were the milestones, the accomplishments that I fought for.
	You got to do it too.
	Society is failing men and boys.
	It's not just because It is telling men they're toxically masculine or whatever.
	It's because it's not giving them the right motivations and the challenges.
	But I'll tell you, when they say men are toxic, when they say you don't deserve this, you don't do that, this is the world of men.
	It's not fair.
	Ladies' night, women get discounts.
	That shouldn't be allowed.
	Life isn't easy.
	Be a man.
	This is what it means.
	It means your hands will be calloused.
	It means your skin will be scarred.
	It means you will be chiseled and grizzled and experienced, and you will carry the stories of the world beneath your belt, and it is never going to be easy.
	You think you just get to be the world champ?
	There's only one world champ.
	And not everyone's going to be the world champ.
	But you can get as close as you can and maximize your potential.
	And I assure you, it will be hard.
	So good luck.
	The real message I think men and boys need is something like that.
	You will fall.
	You will get hurt.
	I go to the skate park and I see these little kids.
	They want to drop in on the halfpipe and they're scared to fall.
	And you know what I tell them?
	You are going to fall.
	Now drop in.
	And they get scared, like, but I don't want to fall.
	Like, that's too bad.
	You do not get to experience the joys and the successes of being a great skateboarder without paying your dues.
	That's what we call it.
	So, when I watch someone fall down, Assuming they're not seriously hurt, they fall and they hit their elbow and they're like, ah, you know, pay your dues, baby.
	That's what I call it.
	You got to pay your dues.
	You don't get to fly through the air 20 feet up, spinning around and all that stuff without knowing that at some point you must pay your dues.
	You will fall.
	You will get hurt.
	If you couldn't fall and get hurt, nobody would care you did it.
	Let me put it this way.
	Can you get hurt?
	Playing tic-tac-toe?
	Yeah, I didn't think so.
	Unless, like, the pencil snaps and a piece of the graphite flies in the air and hits you in the face?
	Yeah, right.
	Is anybody gonna watch the sporting event of tic-tac-toe?
	Yeah, sorry.
	But with games like chess or magic, where people watch and there's no real risk of physical injury, there is the challenge before you of beating someone mentally.
	So it's not all about being sports.
	I'm just saying.
	It won't be easy.
	Do you want to be the best?
	Well, risks come with it.
	I'm gonna wrap it up there.
	Smash that like button.

	Vivek Ramaswamy is the smartest guy in politics right now.
	I've never been a bigger fan.
	I think he has under his belt the future of MAGA.
	Vivek has proven himself time and time again, but this dude... Vivek's IQ's gotta be like 200, okay?
	He knows people.
	He knows how to run systems.
	He knows how to make money.
	Big fan, Vivek.
	Shout out.
	We'll get to that segment in a minute, but we'll grab your Super Chats.
	There's a couple here.
unidentified		Alright.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Steven Springstead says, doing nothing does nothing.
		Indeed, indeed.
		You know, I gotta tell you, my friends.
		Feel free to do this.
		Go to YouTube.com slash TimCast.
		I encourage this.
		Go to YouTube.com slash TimCast and go to videos and click oldest.
		And watch the oldest video.
		You know what I'll do?
		I'll even pull that up for you right now.
		YouTube.com slash TimCast.
		This is my first YouTube channel.
		It's now where we put the Culture War podcast.
		Let me pull that up.
		Look at these videos.
		Let's go to oldest video.
		What do we have here?
		Look at this goofy nonsense.
		Look at that, look at that guy right there.
		OWS one year action update.
		What is that even video?
		3,000 views.
		Here's one.
		Vermin Supreme, 972 views.
		What are these videos?
		This channel's got millions of subs.
		Here's me.
		I did have one big one.
		What is this one?
		Look, look at me like standing there all awkward with my hands.
		What am I doing?
		Apple's wireless phone disabling patent.
		What is that title even?
		Got half a million views by the way.
		Then you've got anonymous or accountability.
		What is that?
		3,000 views.
		Daily recap.
		Gawker vs. Reddit.
		Keystone XL.
		Wikileaks.
		Standing by the water.
		I filmed myself talking about news.
		Got barely any views.
		Look at some of these videos.
		Here's one where I interviewed a Bahraini spokesperson talking about CNN.
		684 views.
unidentified		Right?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The NDAA indefinite detention provisions in a hotel room.
		Look at these.
		These are all nonsense, weird videos.
		I was barely getting any traffic.
		Tried making more.
		Some of them did a little bit better.
		But ultimately, I was getting hundreds.
		That's it.
		Then one day, this channel ended up with substantially more.
		I started making more videos.
unidentified		70,000, 60,000, 600.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		10,000, 62,000, how sock puppets work.
		Then we made, here we go, look at this, Weaponized Drones, 100,000 views, 781 views.
		Can you believe it?
		I made this video, nobody even watched it.
		Some of them did well, many of them didn't.
		We began trying to figure out how to make these videos work, and slowly over time, despite the fact the videos were getting almost no views, some of them got some views, I just kept making them.
		Brief tour of camp at Obamaville, 829 views.
		Too many people I know say, I made a video and I got 800 views so I quit.
		Or not even 800.
		People will say, like, you know, I got a hundred views, so what's the point of even doing it?
		And I'm like, I never said that.
		I made a video, I got a hundred views, and I was like, cool, let's make more.
		I just kept doing it.
		Got better and better at it.
		Here I am.
		Three channels, over a million.
		Timcast IRL's gonna crack two million real soon.
		And, uh, we just keep building it up.
		You just, every day you grind, and the snowball rolls down that hill.
		It is not a secret.
		You can go to the oldest videos on all of the channels we have.
		Look at early Timcast IRL, even.
		We were getting 2,000 live viewers.
		And then within a couple weeks, up to 7,000.
		I had more experience at that point, and I still had a big channel, so...
		Driving viewers to it wasn't as hard.
		And then, now we consistently average the largest audience live on YouTube Monday through Friday.
		We had, this week, 45,000 concurrence, 57,000, 53,000, and it's just because every day we do it.
		But you know what?
		There was a period in 2020, we were getting 80 to 100,000 concurrence near the election.
		The next year, we're getting 27,000.
		I didn't quit.
		I didn't go, oh, my viewers are so low.
		I just said, we do a show.
		It's what we do, baby.
		We do a show.
		We sell the ads.
		We do the work.
		That's it.
		And maybe it'll be the best.
		Maybe it won't be.
		I can look on internet and I can see all the people who are way bigger than I am.
		They're just able to do it.
		That's the truth.
		I know that Steven Crowder's got more subs and gets more views.
		I'm a big fan.
		Steven Crowder's great.
		Dan Bongino, man, that guy's the best.
		He's so good at what he does.
		How does he do it?
		I don't know.
		But man, is he good.
		Does he nail it?
		I do my best.
		I do what I do.
		And I don't get let down by the fact that other people are bigger than me or do better than me.
		Take a look at Vivek Ramaswamy.
		I mean, this guy entered the political space a couple of years ago.
		I've been here for a decade.
		And this guy's already got more followers, more fame, he's much better at all of this political stuff.
		He's fantastic.
		That'll always be the case.
		There will always be people who are smarter, faster, better than you, but you can still be the best that you can be, and sometimes you'll be on top, and sometimes you'll be on the bottom.
		But you can still be successful, even if you're just a tradesman doing your job.
	Maybe you want to be a rock star, you never made it, but you can still make money playing music.
	Not everybody gets to be the best or the top.
	Anyway, couple more Super Chats.
	Here we go.
	Joseph Murphy says, did a bulk this summer.
	Got up to 206.
	Started eating chicken, rice, and broccoli.
	And down to 197 in a week and a half.
	I have a high-intensity job just doing my normal workout.
	Who's gonna carry the boats?
	Yes!
	We got work to do, men!
	Do you want to be a man?
	That's an honest question.
	Do you want to be a man?
	Do you want to be the guy who lifts the gigantic sacks of wheat and flour through the mill to do the work?
	It's kind of wild to me that there are people who endeavor to be these effeminate dancing entertainers.
	That's always weird to me.
	Look, I get it.
	I like musicians too.
	Some of them are grittier and better than others.
	Some of them do real hard work.
	But they're like... I don't know.
	What do you want to be?
	Maybe you don't want the same things I do.
	I figure that as much, sure.
	But I think about... You know, I watched this video.
	It was 16-year-old farm workers, boys, teenagers, versus heavyweight bodybuilding women.
	And the farm boys won.
	They're not trying to be the greatest bodybuilders in the world.
	They're trying to raise goats.
	You know what I mean?
	What it means to be a man is that people will spit on you, they will doubt you, they will mistreat you.
	Your life will be hard.
	You will be grizzled and chiseled and scarred.
	And you accept that.
	Because this idea that you could, I don't know, be fat and sitting on a golden chair with grapes on your belly as beautiful men fan you, that's not being a man.
	That's being a hedonist.
	But if you want to be that, don't let me stop you.
	It's a free country, it's a free world, I guess.
	You've got free will.
	No, you pick.
	Let's do this, though.
	I wanna play this.
	I don't do a lot of reaction videos, but... Here we go.
	We got this clip, AeroStudioMan posts, from Vivek Ramaswamy, actually.
	We'll just jump to, uh, okay, so, I don't know, whatever.
	Oh, he's tagged Vivek Ramaswamy.
	Sorry.
	Sorry.
	He says, Vivek shows a masterclass on how to win arguments with the youth while imparting knowledge.
	Charlie Kirk does a good job with these events.
	I think Charlie's fantastic.
	Vivek plays the good cop so well.
	This young liberal woman shows up, And she wants to play this game where she insults Charlie Kirk and she doesn't actually argue the points and Vivek totally disarms her.
	asks her a real question, and then all of a sudden she is left flabbergasted.
	I got no beef with this young woman.
	I respect her wanting to come up and speak, but she's wrong about what she thinks.
	She doesn't understand what's really going on.
	She decided to step up because she's brave.
	Hopefully Vivek can show her the light.
	But I do want to give a shout-out to Vivek Ramaswamy.
	This dude is the best we got right now in politics.
	You know, I'd have loved to have seen a Vivek VP, but I think JD Vance is a good choice.
	Let me play this video for you, and we'll break it down, and we'll react and talk about it.
unidentified		Do you feel proud of yourself for debating college kids who are unprepared to speak in front of an audience like yourself?
		Hold on, hold on, hold on.
		You're 30 years old.
		We can agree you're 30 years old.
		Right?
		Do you think that's a little bit silly?
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Are you a voter?
unidentified		I am a voter.
unidentified		I'm a registered voter.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Oh, so I vote and you vote.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		So I'm talking to voters of this country that will determine the future of Western civilization.
unidentified		That's what I'm doing here today.
unidentified		Yeah?
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Wait, hold on.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		How is it any different than a professor talking to you?
unidentified		Than a professor talking to you?
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Who are you?
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Important enough for you to come up to a microphone.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'll say this right now.
		Already, her opening premise is nonsensical.
		And then she says, who are you?
		Because she's run out of things to say.
		She's brave, but she doesn't know what she's doing.
		And so, respect for the bravery.
		Now, I'd push back.
		You know, I'd probably take a little bit more of a vague approach on this one.
		Although I don't think I'd ever be as good as Vivek at this.
		He's... Vivek, dude, you are a master at this stuff.
		I mean, if I'm talking to this young woman and she says, you know, don't you think it's a little silly to come and talk to college students?
		You know, you're 30 years old.
		I'm 38.
		I just say, um...
		Well, I think college students are exactly who we need to be talking to.
		You guys are going to be inheriting industry in the next several years.
		We want to make sure that you understand and are ready to do that.
		In fact, I think it's probably, I'd be honest, it's much less important for me as a 38-year-old to go and talk to other 38-year-olds or people who are older who already have had these experiences.
		You guys are stepping up to the plate right now and we need you more than ever, so we're going to do our best to make sure you are the best versions of yourself you can be.
		Older generations impart knowledge to the younger generations.
		Next question.
		Let's play more.
unidentified		Actually, when I first saw this ad, I thought it was like an improv comedy thing.
		It looked so ridiculous that I didn't even think it was real.
		Okay.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Well, no, you can see, look how popular Trump is on your campus.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		How does that make you feel?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		See, I feel like Troy's a little antagonistic.
		I didn't just respond to it.
		What she said has no bearing on anything.
		My response to that is, oh, okay, well, thank you for coming.
		You know, you can clearly see it's not.
		Maybe we'll do better on our posters next time.
		But did you have a question?
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		That's not comedy.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		That is a five alarm fire for Kamala Harris.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Bravo, Charlie.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		But no, I just want to be clear.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Is there something wrong with talking to voters?
unidentified		No, there's nothing wrong with talking to voters.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's what we're doing here today.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		It's an open mic.
unidentified		I think that you push a dangerous agenda.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Such as?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Excellent, Charlie.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Excellent.
unidentified		Your stance on abortion rights, for example.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Which is?
unidentified		Okay, so let me ask a question.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		What is your name?
unidentified		Jean.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Jean.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		And what is your understanding of the current Republican Party's stance on federal intervention in abortion?
unidentified		Vivek.
unidentified		Well, I know that they want to bring it back to the states, right?
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		So it sounds like you do know that the Republican Party's current stance on abortion is they're against a federal ban on abortion.
unidentified		I do understand that, yes.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		And we're talking about a presidential election as the important election that we're talking about here.
unidentified		I understand that, yes.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		Great.
		Again, I think this open dialogue is great.
		I think it's great you're here challenging Charlie, and I think it's great that he's willing to travel campuses across this country to talk to the next generation.
		We need more conversation.
		Where's the disagreement, though, on content?
		Because you could criticize style or why you're talking to people or dunk on someone personally, but where do you actually disagree with the substance?
unidentified		I agree with the way that you edit content and specifically frame it so that people look bad talking to you.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		She agrees with that?
unidentified		The way that you edit your content.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		We post unedited content.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		Let me just ask you one thing, though.
		The video's unedited, by the way.
		Where is an area where you have a disagreement with the conservative movement, with Donald Trump, with Charlie Kirk, perhaps with myself?
		I was a presidential candidate last year.
		I think we need to talk about that more in the open, and the more we do, the stronger our country's going to be.
		We've got a long line of people, but I want to hear from you one substantive area where you have an authentic disagreement, and I'd be glad to address it.
		I'm sure Charlie would, too.
		Just in any political... Relating to any political topic where you have a disagreement.
		Let's air it.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		I disagree with some of the laws that are being pushed in Congress that are against the LGBTQ community.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Which ones?
unidentified		And the trans community.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so let's talk about that.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		I'm gonna give you my view, and then I want to hear yours.
unidentified		Okay.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		My view is that if you're a fully grown adult, 18 or above, you're free to live how you want, dress how you want, marry who you want if you want, if you're over the age of 18.
unidentified		I agree.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		But you are not free to indoctrinate children in schools who are not yet of the age of consent.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		You are not free, just as a 17-year-old or a 15-year-old can't get a tattoo on their own, I don't think that you should be able to go So I'm going to pause there and just, uh, I disagree a little bit with Vivek.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I actually think you should be allowed to indoctrinate in schools.
		It just depends on the indoctrination.
		I have a moral tolerance for some ideas and not others.
		I think everybody does.
		Many Christian conservatives tolerate morally or more like, I mean, tolerate in a flat, logical sense, but I should say this.
		want and promote biblical values.
		Many Christian conservatives want public schools to teach biblical values.
		They support those moral frameworks.
		I agree with most of the moral frameworks as well.
		My view is, if a school has the Ten Commandments in it—I am not a Christian.
		I don't care.
		The Ten Commandments, I believe, are very good.
		Thou shalt not murder.
		Honor thy father and thy mother.
		Those things are all fine.
		In fact, we even had a discussion about, you know, no false idols and things like this, and I'm like, I think those are all fine.
		None of them tell a person to self-harm, nor are they direct demands to be a Christian.
		If there were ten commandments in schools, the net negative is nothing.
		Literally nothing.
		It's only net positive.
		You might not like Christianity, fine, whatever, but they're still positive messages.
		The indoctrination towards the gender ideology promotes self-harm.
		That's bad.
		I do not tolerate that.
		I think there is some indoctrination.
		It's just about what moral framework is a positive, beneficial-to-life indoctrination.
		But we'll continue.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		And so the lines that I draw here is that men are free to claim to be women and swim in swimming pools.
		You're not free to claim trophies in a women's sports competition.
		You're not free to enter a women's locker room.
		You're not free to change a language.
		And you're not free to actually indoctrinate our children who are under the age of five in schools.
		Do we agree on the fact that adults should be able to live freely while still treating children differently?
		If so, we're on the same side of this issue.
unidentified		Listen, I agree with the majority of what you said.
unidentified		However, I don't think that you're understanding the implications of the laws that are trying to be passed.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I absolutely find it absurd that this 20-something-year-old woman thinks that presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy does not understand the policies that he advocated for and spent tens of millions of dollars on.
		This is another issue of arrogance and narcissism.
		We need to teach pragmatism and stoicism and things like this.
		Young woman, it's okay not to know.
		And that's why the presentation should always be, can you explain to me your view of the full ramifications of these bills that are being proposed?
		Because I can argue the net negatives from insert bill will outweigh the moral positives you think you're going to obtain, but it's got to be done in a logically consistent manner.
		She's not doing that because she doesn't know what she's talking about.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		Look, we got a head start on the conversation.
		We got a long line behind you.
		But my only ask is forget the personal attacks or the stylistic attacks.
		Focus on substance.
		The more we debate that, the stronger we're going to be as a country.
		Thank you for coming.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		I don't think you're focusing on substance, though.
unidentified		That's the issue.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		He intentionally tried to provoke substance out of you, and you said, well, I'm worried about some laws Congress should pass.
		I have to ask, what laws are you talking about?
		Can you be specific?
unidentified		I'm sorry, I'm very nervous.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I want to pause real quick, too.
		She's nervous.
		I respect her for speaking.
		She should listen more.
		But a lot of people are attacking her because of a nip slip, and that is BS.
		Come on, guys.
unidentified		This is what you do.
		This is what you do.
		You take people and you put them under the spotlight and you... Well, hold on.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		I didn't ask you to come up here.
		You voluntarily came to the front of the line.
		You didn't have to do that.
unidentified		You're purposely antagonizing people on campus.
		How?
		Asking people to come up by spreading your weird agenda.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		How?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, I want to pause there, too, and look, I'll give some criticism on the right.
		It's called the You're Being Brainwashed Tour.
		Me, I don't play that game.
		I would never do that.
		Maybe that's why you guys like watching my show, but more people like watching Charlie Kirk.
		He's got a bigger audience.
		TPUSA is way bigger.
		I think some people prefer that better.
		I'd love to do a college tour with IRL or some kind of show.
		But I wouldn't call it the You're Being Brainwashed Tour.
		I'd call it something like, you know, Steven Crowder originally had real conversations.
		He changed it to Change My Mind.
		I think Change My Mind is way, way better.
		Or something like Counterpoint, Point and Counterpoint Debate, et cetera, et cetera.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		What agenda is that?
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		I'm confused, though.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		Charlie, I'll say this.
		We'll end on this and we'll go to the next question.
		When I was 18, and I'm not going to blame you for this, I also took for granted a lot of the stuff that the media force fed me, because that's what you know at the age of 18.
		You say there are some vague laws making their way through Congress that are hostile to the trans community.
		I don't think those laws actually exist, but I don't blame you if that's what the cable media is feeding you.
		But let's get to the specifics, and then we're able to actually have an open dialogue.
		That's one of the things I've learned over the last 20 years.
unidentified		I think that the issue is, is we're getting our media from different sources, both... No, you are!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		TimCast pulls up the New York Times and CNN and Reuters and NPR.
		We fact-check that against other sources.
		We pull up The Federalist.
		We pull up The Daily Wire.
		We use conservative sources with a conservative perspective.
		And the majority of the articles we source are coming from corporate press.
		Because even though we know the corporate press lies relatively often, a good portion of the basic news reporting is fine.
		The political agenda stuff is work.
		It's messy.
		There is gal man amnesia.
		Don't, you know, you know, don't get me wrong.
		But the reality is liberals only listen to MSNBC and CNN.
		And I'm, I'm being somewhat facetious.
		Overwhelmingly, that is their source.
		95 plus percent.
		Independents and conservatives watch everything.
		Young lady.
		I can tell you that Donald Trump never called neo-Nazis very fine people.
		That is not a question of getting our media from different sources.
		That is a question of you being lied to and being wrong and Vivek being correct.
unidentified		People are getting media from these skewed sources.
unidentified		The facts that you're presenting are not always correct.
vivek ramaswamy ▲ ● ▼		And that's why we're here with no TV screens between us.
		So people who have policy-based substantive disagreements, we invite those.
		I think that's how we're going to get our country back.
		And as it relates to trans, which you brought up, 18 or above, you're free to live how you want.
		You're not free to force that onto somebody else, or especially kids.
		And if we agree on that, we make some progress.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
charlie kirk ▲ ● ▼		Disagreements, yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I thought that was fantastic, and it's a great display of, you know, Vivek is really a master at this.
		Look, I'll wind this down by saying this, I get it.
		If you go out and say liberals are demons, the liberals are demons tour, I'm not trying to be funny, I'm saying literally, if you came out and said, you know, like, Democrats are destroying the nation tour, you're being brainwashed tour, it is antagonistic.
		I don't completely disagree with her.
		Now, Charlie's not being antagonistic when you arrive.
		That's your choice.
		You could certainly just say, I have a question.
		I've seen X, Y, and Z. I'm curious what you think about how that's going to manifest, because I personally feel otherwise.
		I want to hear your answer so I can provide my perspective.
		Charlie's going to say, here's what we want to do.
		Here's why we want to do it.
		He's going to be nice to you.
		He's going to let you ask your question.
		And then you can respond with, OK, so I read X, Y, and Z. What's your response to that?
		He's going to respond, and that's it.
		That's why, you know, it's funny because you watch a lot of these videos with young people at colleges, and typically it's just conservatives being smart and college students being antagonistic.
		The college student comes up and just says, you're ugly, you're stupid, you have a weird agenda, blah, blah, blah.
		And then you get the conservative saying, well, you know, actually, blah, blah, blah, here's why, you're wrong, this, that, and otherwise.
		It's a forum by which conservatives can articulate their thoughts, but then also strike down individuals who don't have the capability to levy a proper response or debate.
		Now, you may say, that's not fair, Tim.
		You're saying that conservatives just want to debate college kids?
		Oh, I'm saying the liberals don't debate.
		You got a couple.
		You know, Destiny wants to debate everybody.
		That's fine.
		He's a smart dude.
		I think he lies a lot.
		Sam Seder wants to debate everybody, but he's kind of like WWE.
		He just wants political drama.
		The dude's obsessed with me.
		Like, at first it was Dave Rubin, now it's me.
		I mean, like, go talk about Dave Rubin, guy.
		You know, I don't know.
		Talk about stuff that matters.
		But he doesn't, because he's WWE.
		He wants politics.
		Many of these guys do.
		So don't get me wrong, they exist, but it's few and far between.
		I could go outside and throw a rock, and I'm going to hit a conservative begging for a debate.
		I go outside, I'll throw a frisbee in the air, I'll close my eyes, and then I'm going to hear five voices yell, I got it, I got it!
		It's conservatives who want to come on the show.
		We send out two dozen messages to liberals being like, please come on the show.
		And they're like, yeah, nah, I ain't doing that.
		Why?
		It doesn't matter if they're a college student or otherwise.
		They can't stand up to scrutiny.
		But you know what?
		Here's my thoughts.
		The Culture War Show.
		I actually think Friday's show was one of the better shows.
		It was very engaging.
		Jason Fick talking about Section 230 and these laws.
		Very good.
		The Culture War Show.
		We are routinely trying to set up debates on issues.
		But these prominent liberals won't do it.
		Every conservative wants to come on, liberals won't.
		There's a small handful of conservatives who would do it all the time.
		Seems boring.
		I think maybe we just go up to WVU or something.
		Let's just bring Culture War to the college campus, which is 20 minutes away, and we'll set up the show there outside, and we'll have debates with people who want to have the debates.
		And we could just—I bet we could hit up WVU and be like, hey, we want to do this routine show.
		They'd probably be super excited for it.
		It's extremely woke, extremely liberal, but it's also in West Virginia.
	So let's bring the debate.
	I think that'll be fun.
	I think it'll be real fun.
	We'll aim for that with Culture War, we'll see what happens.
	But for everybody else, I'm gonna wrap up here.
	Smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, head over to buycominghome.com, B-U-Y, cominghome.com, like, purchase the song.
	Pre-order now on iTunes.
	New song's coming out this Friday, and it's about the destruction and failed policies that have ruined our cities and those who are coming home and saying, I will not stand for this anymore.
	Follow me on X at TimCast.
	Thanks for hanging out.
	We'll see you all next time.
	No TimCast IRL on the weekends, but I probably will be live tomorrow morning as well.
	For everybody else, I think that just about wraps up.
	I do have like a ton of other news stories, but you know, it is what it is.
	I'll grab a couple of your superchats here.
	Unit Unit Glue says, young adult talking to Charlie Kirk, she flashed nip intentions trying to get him banned.
	Skanky, I don't think that's true.
	She was holding, she's holding her top up and trying to pull her pants up.
	I think she just dresses that way and, you know, it happened.
	Korowag says, we don't teach the basic foundations of morality, accountability, responsibility, and integrity.
	These are in all interactions, face-to-face or not.
	Lack of these lessons causes the issues we see on both sides of the aisle more in younger generations.
	That's why I think, you know, maybe we go to WVU, man.
	And we can go out, you know, Charlie Kirk's doing the work.
	I'm inspired by this.
	I like the idea of having people show up and talk and debate.
	And we could, you know, we could do is we could get guests and we could do something like this for the culture war.
	I think it'd be a lot of fun.
	I'm going to wrap it up here, my friend.
	So follow me on X. You already heard me tell you 800,000 times to check out Coming Home, the new song.
	But if we could get, you know, we had around 23 or so thousand live viewers this Saturday, which is massive for a Saturday, so thank you all so much for tuning in.
	But if 23,000 people who are watching just went and pre-ordered the song, then boom!
	We're on Billboard.
	We're hitting the charts.
	And the more we do this, the more it's difficult for the institutions to deny the fact that we're bigger than most of these other artists.
	They put up this music, they write articles about them, and these bands have no followings.
	And I'm not trying to disrespect them, okay?
	It's great that they're getting exposure, but this shows how the institution's intentionally tried to overlook Tom McDonald, me, other artists, based records on a whole list of artists, five times August, to overlook, despite the massive success of this music, hitting Bryson Gray.
	They don't want to acknowledge that we're actually doing very well.
	I'm gonna wrap it up there.
	Follow me on X. Thanks for hanging out this Saturday.
	I'll see y'all tomorrow at 10 a.m.
	for that Sunday morning special show.
	Thanks for hanging out.
