Yesterday, tragedy struck New York City.
A man with a rifle shot and killed five people, of which this includes himself.
Now, the motive is believed to be that he was suffering from CTE.
They say they found a note in his pocket that says, the NFL, you can't go up against them, and he was targeting their offices.
Now, that's at least the official narrative that we know now.
However, there's an interesting new conspiracy bubbling up behind the scenes.
I'm not one to entertain the veracity of conspiracies, but there is still something that should be brought up as to why this conspiracy has gained prominence.
That is, this man, Tamura, they call him.
That's his name, went to an office that was supposed to be, according to a letter they found in his pocket, the NFL.
Instead, he went up to the 33rd floor, which was the Blackstone offices.
There, he shot and killed several people.
Now, he did shoot people in the lobby as well, which does include an NFL employee.
That's why I say, I don't give too much credence to conspiracy theories, but there is an interesting underlying thread here.
Blackstone has been heavily criticized by the left for providing lots of money to Israel.
One of the executives that was killed, one of the individuals, was in fact a Jewish philanthropist, as being reported right now.
And online, there is a post going viral showing that this building and specifically the Blackstone offices were a target of the globalize the Intifada protest movement, or whatever you want to call it.
Now, I'm going to say it again.
I think I'm going to take the least amount of assumptions here.
He did shoot and kill an NFL employee.
It was an NFL building.
He did play football.
Law enforcement says they found a note in his pocket saying, please study my brain.
Apparently, his CT caused him to drink antifreeze, and crazy always tends to be what makes the most sense.
But there is an interesting reality to the anti-Israel narrative, and that is many people online are entertaining this theory because of it.
They believe it's entirely possible this young man was, and this is pro-Israel and anti-Israel.
Many people believe that the actual motivation was Israel and Blackstone.
Blackstone, of course, has been buying up homes in the past and has been the subject of massive scrutiny for some time.
And again, I'll just say this, I don't know.
I'll go with the official narrative.
But we are seeing this shift in the mainstream narrative as it pertains to Israel.
Even just the other day, Seth Meyers calling out Israel.
And this is corporate mainstream liberal comedy.
So it is an interesting phenomenon.
Now, I don't know if we're going to have a guest.
We reached out to a few people who want to get a comment, but we will talk about this as well.
The shift from the corporate press as it pertains to the Israel narrative.
But first, we'll go to the official story, which again, I lean towards being most likely crazy person, did crazy thing for crazy reasons tends to be the reality.
I mean, the people that we see that are leftists, and even people on the right who are anti-Israel, aren't going around just shooting up office buildings.
But I got to mention, in D.C., these two Jewish Israeli embassy staffers were shot and killed.
So again, this theory, it exists, and a lot of people believe it.
And before we get started, my friends, I want to give a shout out to Steven Crowder and the Mug Club.

And my friends, this weekend, the Culture War Podcast Live.
Preferred seating sold out.
General admission, likely going to sell out very, very soon.
We're expecting a sold-out show with Michael Malice and Angry Cops debating the question of abolishing police or just police in general.
Michael Malice, as you know, he's a troll.
He's a comedian.
He's an anarchist and he is not big on police.
Angry Cops, as you know, is also a troll and comedian and commentator, and he's literally a cop.
So this one started selling quick.
We did have that weird fiasco where they canceled the show and brought it back.
So we might actually already be sold out.
unidentified
I don't know.

Hopefully we don't double up on tickets, but we don't know what to expect.
What I can say is this weekend, this past weekend, we had the Culture War first episode.
Is Trump still winning?
And it was hilarious.
Matan even was hilarious.
Gavin was funny.
Pisco Liddy defended his side vigorously to a crowd of booze and jeers.
But we laughed a lot.
It was a lot of fun.
And it was a packed house.
I would call it sold out effectively because I don't see how anyone else could have fit anywhere else in that building.
It was amazing.
And we think it's going to be even more intense this next show.
So check out the DC Comedy Loft in the description.
Come this Saturday in DC.
It is going to be hilarious.
And we may have a special liberal guest, big liberal, prominent, well-known.
But again, the challenge with the liberals is they're always like real worried about coming.
It is what it is.
Let's start here with the official story from NBC News to give you guys the update.
This was a tragic unfolding yesterday in New York City.
NBC News reports, New York City shooting live updates.
Police investigate motive after five people, including gunmen, are killed in office high-rise.
They say five total dead.
A New York City police officer and three civilians are dead after a gunman opened fire inside a high-rise corporate building in Manhattan on Monday evening.
The suspect died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Shane Devon Tamura, a 27-year-old from Vegas, has been identified by police as the gunman.
Officials say he acted alone and has a documented mental health history.
Tamura's motive has not been disclosed.
Two officials familiar with the subject matter told NBC News, however, the suspect left a note in which he wondered if CTE, a brain disease caused by head trauma, was a possible cause of his mental illness.
The shooting took place first reported at 6.30 p.m., 345 Park Avenue, which houses several major businesses, including Blackstone, KPMG, and the NFL.
Tamura may have targeted the NFL headquarters, Mayor Eric Adams said today.
Now, we don't know for sure exactly what his motive was.
The official narrative seems to be that this guy was targeting the NFL, at least based on this note they say was in his pocket.
Immediately, I have questions.
And that question is, how come when we get these other mass shootings, they don't release the motive.
They don't release the manifesto or any information.
But right now in this story, they're like, oh, and by the way, we haven't yet begun an investigation, but we did reach into his pocket and he hated the NFL, just so you know.
Really?
Okay, I guess.
Now there's conspiracies swirling online.
To be fair, I don't know you can actually call it a conspiracy because they've not officially confirmed the motive, but theories that this NFL narrative has emerged as a means of stopping any panic.
The argument is that if this guy was actually targeting Blackstone and pro-Irael groups and Jewish individuals, it could lead to a panic.
Or some argue, some argue that if word gets out that people are arming themselves against pro-Israel or Jewish individuals, it could lead to copycats.
Honestly, I have no idea.
But at least online, some people think this may be the case.
Let's explore this.
The first thing I'm going to do is give a shout out to this image.
This is a really amazing image that reportedly comes from inside the Blackstone HQ, where they used all the office furniture to barricade the doors when the shooting had begun.
And many people have celebrated these men for taking decisive action to protect themselves, their colleagues.
It's a terrifying photo, but I think it's worth showing.
Now here's a story from Newsweek.
Shane Devon Tamura's suicide note says he had CTE and calls out the NFL.
They say the shooting took place in Manhattan, this we know.
I will also mention that CNN and other outlets had claimed this guy was white.
We'll talk about that too.
Newsweek reports a suicide note was discovered in the suspect's back pocket that said he had suffered from CTE.
CNN reported citing an unnamed source with knowledge of the investigation.
An unnamed source, we don't know who.
They're claiming that's the motivation, huh?
Or at least that's the evidence.
The degenerative brain disease has been linked to repeated trauma to the head, including concussions, common in contact sports like football.
Symptoms can be used to diagnose suspected CTE in the living, but can only be confirmed through a post-mortem examination of the brain because it requires examination of brain tissue.
Football, quote, gave me CTE and it caused me to drink a gallon of antifreeze.
The note read according to CNN.
You can't go against the NFL.
They'll squash you.
The note also asked for the suspect's Brain to be studied, according to CNN, which said trauma was a competitive football, said Tamura, sorry, was a competitive football player in his youth.
Newsweek had contacted the NFL for further comment via email sent outside regular business hours.
I just want to pause real quick and ask this question.
A young man did not play for the NFL, was not wronged directly by the NFL.
They are alleging his motivation was the NFL, you can't go up against them.
Okay, I guess.
Kind of out of nowhere.
And this is where this theory is largely bubbling up from.
Kind of out of nowhere that some random person wanted to kill NFL people?
I want to clarify.
He did.
He did.
Okay, and I don't want to downplay if this is actually the motivation.
But I just got to say, you know, the reason I think people are asking if this is about Blackstone itself as an organization or Israel has to do with the fact that there are people threatening to kill and have killed over the issue of Israel, like those two embassy staffers not that long ago.
There doesn't seem to be any strong correlation as to what this guy was doing online or whatever, where it would lead him to be like, ooh, the NFL, again, he played football, but he wasn't in the NFL.
It's not like the NFL did anything to him.
So it's just strange.
They say in a news conference on Monday, Police Commissioner Jessica Tish said Timur had a documented mental health history.
And it may just be that he's crazy.
It makes sense.
Sane people don't do stuff like this.
Commissioner Jessica Tish said, according to our law enforcement partners in Vegas, Mr. Timur had a documented mental health history.
His motives are still under investigation, and we are working to understand why he targeted this particular location.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodall said in a message to his employees, we are deeply grateful to the law enforcement officers who responded to this threat quickly and decisively and to Officer Islam who gave his life to protect others.
Kathy Hochl said, tonight we mourn four New Yorkers, including one of New York's finest, taken in a senseless act of violence.
Our hearts are with our loved ones and everyone affected by this tragedy, and we honor the first responders who bravely ran toward danger.
The investigation into the shooting and his motive is ongoing.
So again, this is the official corporate press narrative, but we don't know the official motive just yet.
It's not been determined.
Now, CNN, of course, is getting a lot of flack.
CNN anchor Aaron Burnett flamed for saying NYC shooter Shane Tamura was possibly white.
Let's see if we get audio on this.
unidentified
Here to John's reporting that they do know what the looks like.
Male, possibly white, mustache, sunglasses in that building, isolated to, they believe, to various locations, including upper floors is where they're focused.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Uh-oh.
Possibly white.
There was an image that went around.
Now, I'm going to cut CNN some slack here, guys.
I don't want to be unreasonable, nor do I want to be a tribal outrageist or whatever you want to call it.
The reality is when the news broke, nobody really knew what was going on.
And so if CNN's getting a report that he may be white, it's not that they looked at that picture and then said, that's a white guy.
It's possible.
It is.
So I'm not going to cut him that much slack, but I'll give him a little.
Aaron Burnett didn't see any photos.
She got an earpiece in, probably, and they said they think it might be a white male.
And said, okay.
So for whatever it may be, people were reporting this.
And then anyone who was sane and on Twitter saw that this was not a white male.
And the first photo shared online, Tamura was captured in broad daylight, walk into the office with an AR-15.
Burnett said police knew the gunman had sunglasses, mustache, male, possibly white, during a broadcast shortly after the shooting Monday evening.
You know, I will stress, however, one thing we see a lot of is they'll say something like, they'll call someone white, and it'll be like a Honduran guy.
You know, brown skin.
When it's a criminal, they say, you know, white Hispanic, which just means white Spanish speaker.
But then you look at the guy and you're like, why are you calling that person white?
That's not Latino, I guess.
I don't know.
And this is why people aren't going to cut Aaron Burnett much slack.
You know what I mean?
The assumption is the media does this.
There's the old, I forgot, what is this, like Megan Kelly's Law or something like that, that if a news report doesn't tell you the race of the person, assume they're not white.
Because whenever it's a white person, they'll tell you.
And if it's not a white person, they'll still tell you.
But let's talk about this theory.
Manhattan Mingle, with this post, got over half a million views, says, although the perpetrator's motive has yet to be conclusively determined, the location of the shooting was the number five target on a list first distributed by the globalize the Intifada activists in November of 2023.
unidentified
Meh.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
I saw this and I thought, meh.
Really?
It's Blackstone.
And they post the address and information about it.
MoMA, number zero, Combined TAC, University Club, World Jewish Congress, BlackRock and Blackstone.
They were budget targets.
This one was also in the NFL building.
Maybe the guy was just nuts and blamed the NFL.
The NFL had created this culture that resulted in his CTE and he didn't want to play football or something.
Maybe.
I got to be honest, it seems like a whole lot of hoops to jump through.
But maybe.
I mean, we really don't know.
Now, if we're going to say that this guy was actually motivated by the globalize the Intifada, Zoran Mamdani and leftist activist, and Seth Meyers, and this whole narrative about Israel, honestly, it's easier to believe.
I'm not saying it's correct, but it is easier to believe because we've seen violence already, and this is a massive movement.
This is actually an Instagram account, WOL Palestine, saying, here are the targets.
Blackstone executive Wesley Lepatner, among four people killed in Midtown NYC shooting.
Now, I know I'm going to get a lot of flack from everybody on this one.
I mean, like the mainstream media and the Copernicus are going to write that I'm a nut job and I'm a conspiracy theorist and all that.
But while we're still trying to understand the motive, I think it's worth mentioning.
This narrative exists and there are some interesting bits and bobs about it.
Well, I do want to, you know, I know it's difficult for the families of those who lost their lives and all that, so I do give my condolences.
It's a tragedy.
It's a horrible circumstance.
This executive, Wesley Lepatner, they say a senior managing director for the Financial Giant was shot and killed in the lobby of the Ritzy Park Avenue office tower.
Quote, we are heartbroken to share that our colleague Wesley Lepatner was among those who lost their lives in the tragic incident.
Here you can see the photo that's gone viral of shooter Shane Tamura walking in with his rifle.
And this is Wesley Lepatner.
It's a woman.
A lot of people were, I believe, believed that Wesley, the male name was a man, is a woman.
And she died.
And she appears in videos.
She was an executive at Blackstone.
And pictures of her family and kids.
It's tragic.
She embodied the best of Blackstone.
Our prayers are with her husband, children, and family.
She joined Blackstone in 2014 and served as the global head of core real estate and chief executive officer for Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, a $53 billion property owner, according to Bloomberg.
Now I'm going to pause real quick and say this.
This dude went in and was randomly shooting people.
I don't think he had targets in mind.
So this may all be coincidence.
There is some interesting tidbits here as we get to the bottom of the story.
And let me see if I can, here we go.
It says, after the massacre in the lobby, Tamura allowed Owen to walk out of the elevator unharmed and then headed up to the 33rd floor home to the building-owned Rudin properties offices.
The shooter wanted to shoot at the NFL's office on levels five through eight, but mistakenly went up the wrong elevator banks.
How do we know that?
Now he's claiming because the guy blamed the NFL, or at least that's what they've claimed, that he went in the wrong elevator.
Maybe.
Maybe he went in the right elevator.
Five through eight, but he went to the 33rd floor instead.
Now, for people who don't know how New York skyscrapers work, there's different elevator shafts for different floors.
So for instance, if you go to like the New York Times building, I think it's on, it could be the New York Times, but most of them work like this.
The really big buildings will have like three elevator columns with, I think they'll have like six elevators each, or maybe four.
And you'll see on each column, it'll say one through 17, then it'll say 18 to 33, then it'll say like 34 to 51.
So if he was trying to get to the NFL and didn't know this, because a lot of people don't, he could have walked to any, people do this all the time.
They walk to a random elevator and get in, and then realize there's no buttons in the elevator, and the elevator is going where it goes.
So some of these elevators, I think it's how New York Times works.
There's a keypad.
That's it.
No up or down.
You walk into the keypad and you type the floor in that you want.
The elevator will come and it'll bring you that floor and you can't go to any other floor.
You have to go back down and use a keypad.
It's interesting.
It could be that simply because a Blackstone employee had come down or had called the elevator, that's how he ended up on that floor.
But if he was targeting the NFL, why would he then be satisfied with being some random floor and shooting at random people?
Unless it wasn't random.
And the woman he killed was running the real estate program.
And Blackstone has long been slammed for buying up real estate.
And this guy, a Zoomer, there's easier motivations here than just he hated the NFL, which is kind of weird and okay, I guess.
I mean, maybe, sure.
What do I know?
I have no reason to doubt that they found this letter.
But we can look at a couple different motives.
Israel being a big one, as well as Gen Z can't buy homes.
Blackstone and BlackRock buying up properties en masse, driving up the prices.
This narrative has been persistent for a long time.
There's real motive there.
But again, we're still just stretching because we don't know.
I don't know, man.
The NFL offices were on the fifth through eighth floor, and he went to the 33rd.
They say must have been a mistake.
Must have, or maybe not.
Here's Wesley Lepatner, Jewish philanthropist.
Lepatner, a Blackstone executive, served on the boards of trustees of the Abraham Joshua Heschel School and UJA Federation of New York.
Interesting.
This is from ejewishphilanthropy.com, breaking news.
Is it possible that when people say the motivation was anti-Israel and anti-Jewish, that he was actually targeting these people intentionally, or at least this person?
Here's a telegraph.
I'm sorry, the New York Times, a telegraph.
Blackstone president donates $125 million to Israeli medical school.
The gift is the largest in Tel Aviv University's history and is expected to help receive Israel's shortage, relieve Israel's shortage of doctors.
It's from May.
Could it be that he was targeting Blackstone and that it was on the Intifada protester hit list because they are massively pro-Israel and Blackstone's president had given the largest gift to Tel Aviv University in its history?
I mean, that's a big move, and especially published by the New York Times.
And it just so happened that he killed a Jewish philanthropist executive in the lobby.
Again, there's a lot of stretches here because we have to assume that he studied this, he knew who these people were, and it wasn't just some lunatic.
We do have this story from Fast Company.
Look at this.
This is from January of 2024.
Blackstone is back to being a top player in the housing market.
Here are the numbers.
Blackstone will own the third largest portfolio of U.S. single-family homes once it completes its Tricon residential acquisition.
This is interesting stuff.
We don't know his motivation, but we can break down a handful of facts.
First, they say they found a note in his pocket saying he suffered from CTE and you can't go up against the NFL.
He shot people in the lobby of a building which houses the NFL and Blackstone, among other companies.
In the lobby, he didn't just shoot and kill an employee of Blackstone.
He did shoot and seriously injure an NFL employee they say he was targeting.
Okay.
He then entered an elevator that brought him to the 33rd floor of Blackstone offices, where he continued his rampage.
It's hard to know, isn't it?
The Blackstone office was targeted by anti-Israel protesters.
And we've seen violence from these groups in the past, from groups that have been targeting either Israel supporting the Israel embassy, we've seen the university protests.
So we honestly just don't know.
But I think it's too simple to dismiss these narratives.
What I will say, my friends, is, and I would like to stress this, the NFL did lose an employee.
So I don't want to just say that we know for sure, and this is a Israel or Blackstone thing.
I do want to at least point this out.
We talked about Blackstone for some time.
Blackstone had been buying up homes.
Today, boomers have about, I think, 75% of boomers own property.
That's right, 75.
And I hear it a lot because boomers always say, hey, don't blame the boomers.
No, no, no.
I won't blame you, boomer.
But the generation itself has a disproportionate amount of wealth and corporate securities, et cetera.
75% of boomers own property, much of which they own more than one.
Gen X, about 72 to 75, own property, but one home.
Millennials, 50% own property.
And among Gen Z, I think it's somewhere around like 5% to 7%.
Gen Alpha doesn't own any property.
They're 15 years old.
I think the oldest is 13 to 15.
The narrative is that Gen Z will never own a home.
They're not going to be able to find a living wage or have a family.
They're in their late 20s.
They should already have families.
And I'll warn you guys of this.
As we've talked about, 2008 housing market crash, we were warned by the press there would be a shortage of 18-year-olds 18 years later.
And here we are, and it's true.
The market is hurting because of it.
Now, that was just one crash that affected a large portion of millennials.
Half of millennials still own property, so many made it out.
The issue, however, is that today, Gen Z is facing a generalized environment consistent with the market crash.
We millennials, it was a dip and a recovery.
Some of us made it out.
Not everybody.
Gen Z, they're in a perpetual crash.
There's no buying property.
Right now, people have complained.
Young Gen Z couples trying to buy property, they'll go and they'll say, here's a house in the market for 300K.
And they'll say, what would you say, 275?
And they'll say, not interested.
They'll say, okay, fine, we'll do the 300.
Then they come back and say, you know what?
Blackstone came in at 325.
They offered us 25K above market, driving the prices up.
They get free money from the Fed, basically.
The Fed just gives money to whoever.
They can buy whatever they want, create a massive portfolio.
You will own nothing and you will be happy.
Gen Z is seeing the reality of land ownership and the American Dream stripped away by companies like BlackRock and Blackstone.
Could that have been a motivating factor?
Honestly, I have no idea.
But one thing I will say is I do feel like it's becoming increasingly harder to believe the unhinged narrative.
He's a crazy guy who hit the NFL.
Well, it's hard to believe because even crazy people are pushed in a direction by some kind of narrative machine, out of sight, out of mind.
And if it's true that crazy people shoot people for nonsensical reasons, wouldn't we see a lot more?
Maybe not.
Maybe crazy mass shootings are just rare.
Among most mass shootings we see, like namely in Chicago, it's based on honor and insults.
There's logic behind it.
It's not good logic.
They're not thinking for the future.
But it's not like they're believing that the NFL has broken their brains.
That's a nonsensical, weird conspiracy theory.
So I don't know for sure.
What I do know is that the anti-Israel narrative has gone mainstream.
So we're going to jump into that story.
We do have, I do believe, just a moment ago, you may have noticed me look over at somebody.
I do believe we have an interview lined up to discuss the issue of the shift in the conversation around Israel.
The narrative, mainstream, it's gone anti-Israel.
Take it for whatever you want to say or whatever you want to believe.
Maybe that's the motive.
Smash the like button, my friends.
Share the show with everyone you know.
We'll be back with that interview at 4 p.m. at rumble.com slash Tim Poole as well as youtube.com slash Timcast.
And once again, share the show, smash the like button, and we'll see you all then.
For everybody else, we are going to carry on and start off with this.
We've got this story from therap.com.
Seth Myers gets serious in call for U.S. aid to Gaza.
Quote, if even Trump acknowledged their starvation, it's long past time to act.
It's a really interesting clip from the Seth Meyers show.
Seth Meyers, of course, is a corporate liberal activist.
And on his show, he is coming out and basically stating it.
Israel is the oppressor in this story.
That's the narrative.
Check this out.
seth meyers ▲ ● ▼
Looking for a rating.
No, I just want to pause to say this is a comedy show.
And I know a lot of people are going to say, why are you talking about this?
Just make jokes.
And we try every day.
We try.
But we're also human beings and we're appalled by the unspeakable horrors currently unfolding in Gaza.
And our government is complicit, which is why we have a duty as Americans to speak out on a horrific crisis that has been foreseeable for a long time, as Senator Bernie Sanders explained months ago.
If even Trump is forced to acknowledge the reality of the crisis, that means it is long past time to act and end the suffering.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Long past time to act and end the suffering.
Even Donald Trump acknowledges real starvation in Gaza and tells Israel to let in every ounce of food.
This has been the ongoing narrative for some time that seems to be growing.
Now, I've said in the past that a lot of the sentiment appears to be generated online, and some of it appears to be disingenuous.
But for whatever reason, it is, Israel is losing the narrative game.
You know, look, by all means, say whatever you want about Israel.
I don't care.
Say whatever you want about Hamas.
I don't care.
The point here is, no matter who you are, no matter what side you're on, no matter what you believe, Israel is losing the PR game.
Thank you and have a nice day.
Donald Trump calling out the situation in Gaza.
Seth Myers, corporate mainstream liberal comedy, calling out the situation in Gaza, for which Israel is the villain.
Now to see that in the corporate press, I find very interesting.
So we've got a guest today, and considering it was a last-minute guest, I'm not 100%, I'm pretty sure it's Dave Smith.
But let's see if we can get him in here.
Make sure it's all working and loading up.
We don't.
We do have a guest, though.

tim pool ▲ ● ▼
You're Timu.
Yeah, I said, mom, can we get Dave Smith?
We have Dave Smith at home, and we got Sam instead.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Well, I got a lot of opinions, so you don't got to worry about that.
I mean, it's very interesting times right now.
So what do you want to get into?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Well, so just the other night, Seth Myers called out the situation in Gaza.
This is corporate liberal comedy, basically opposed to Israel.
You know, Dave's a comedian.
You're a comedian as well.
It seems like Israel has completely lost the PR game on this one.
So I've got a couple different things to ask about.
One, you know, getting into this, it's not, I don't want to just be all Israel, blah, blah, blah.
But there is something interesting in Colbert gets canceled.
He goes overtly political.
Jay Leno says, why are you singling out one audience?
But now even Seth Meyers is basically saying, we're supposed to just be doing jokes, but we have to call out what's going on in Gaza.
I'm curious your thoughts on these two things.
The narrative shift on Israel, but also the comedy deciding to be political activism instead.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, I mean, I've heard a lot of comics talking about this right now after Trump did everybody's podcast, and then he's kind of like, they think he's kind of betrayed his base.
So they're like, you know, the progressive left's like, oh, you got to own this, right?
But they never do that with Sarah Night Live when it came to Biden and all that stuff.
Comics have always been political.
I mean, Sam comedy basically comes from the jester who was the only one who was allowed to criticize the king.
It's always been political.
It's only recently that it's gotten less political.
It's very corporate right now.
A lot of comedy that's thriving right now, if it was 20 years ago, they'd be doing corporate gigs.
They wouldn't be on TV.
They wouldn't be doing the clubs.
And that's kind of where we're at.
I think it's very important for us to be critical.
Here's the problem with Colbert.
Colbert was on the wrong side of every argument every time.
You're dancing with syringes.
You're in pictures with Podesta.
I mean, you're shutting up Taylor Daines when she's talking about how the CIA comes in.
You're on the wrong side of everything every time.
There's only so many times you do that before you lose all your credibility.
You know, I just saw Justine Bateman talking about it, how they're now making art in Hollywood, not for the viewers and the consumers, but for their bosses, the owners.
And that's why it's failing.
There's nothing authentistic about what Stephen Colbert does.
There's nothing.
I mean, you're dancing syringes.
This is like something out of Nazi Germany.
It's like the craziest thing I've ever seen in my life.
How do you do that with a straight face?
What was rehearsal like?
It's absolutely ridiculous.
That's why they're losing their audience.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
But also, I mean, you still got Kimmel and Fallon and Myers.
They've been doing the exact same thing, too.
They're still on the air, but they are losing their audience.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Actually, Colbert was doing better than all of them.
I mean, it's just a matter of time.
I mean, that's really what's going on.
You're spending all this money and you're not getting the returns.
And that's it.
I mean, basically, Stephen Colbert lost one WNBA season's worth of money.
That's what he did.
I mean, we give the WNBA a lot of crap for not making any money.
Stephen Colbert wasn't making money.
And the rest of these guys aren't making money.
And it's just a matter of time because if your audience can't trust you, it's all authenticity.
That's it.
And if you're not authentic anymore, nobody wants to listen to you.
And you just basically destroy your brand.
And that's where we're at.
I mean, all four years during Biden, they didn't tee off on this guy at all.
And if they would have teed off on him, like the way they teed off Trump, as we should, we should always be calling out the president, they would still have their ratings.
But they didn't.
They played pardons.
They were on one side and it cost them everything.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
You know what's really interesting, too, is CBS, Paramount, gets rid of Colbert.
They give $1.5 billion to South Park.
South Park immediately comes out with this mockery of Trump, which, you know, I'm lukewarm on.
They did PP jokes, and it's like, okay, they could have actually got Trump on good stuff.
They could have actually gone after him on Epstein, fine.
But here's the funny thing.
You've got South Park getting $1.5 billion.
And I checked.
There's not a single episode as far as I found that targeted Joe Biden.
Only somewhat did they passively mention him.
But even during Biden's presidency, they were making fun of Donald Trump.
So that still comes off as inauthentic.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Well, you got to look at the entire body of work, right?
I mean, if it's just going after Trump, that's one thing.
But they're literally just taking out everybody.
So people aren't maybe paying attention to the political part.
They're taking out all of Hollywood.
They're taking out everybody.
So maybe that gets lost in the sauce.
But they are equally attacking everybody.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's not the same thing.
Colbert is just doing corporate stuff.
And then he's just teeing off on Trump when we're demanding, like, we kind of want him to go after everybody.
it's like when Biden was running for president and Jim Carrey was playing him on Saturday Night Live and then he played him as this fry kind of guy dancing and it just bogged because there's nothing real about that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
But this is exactly the point I'm bringing up.
The South Park traders didn't make any episodes about Biden and they could have.
Biden was flopping around like a dying fish.
So it's I'll make I'll make two points.
I like South Park.
They're hilarious.
Yeah.
I think they got a lot of great classics.
They absolutely attacked wokeness and the males and women's sports.
All good stuff to call out.
But when they target Donald Trump right after CBS cancels Colbert, an anti-Trump activist, and they put out an episode that doesn't actually mock Trump in any meaningful way, just attacks him for having a small wiener, it seems like they got paid to attack Trump.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
I mean, that's a lot of money.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
$1.5 billion, $30 million.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
I mean, I'd write a couple of Trump jokes for $1.5 billion.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
I'd write good ones.
unidentified
Right?
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
I would say the reason that, you know, the reason that South Park gets away with it is because of their body of work.
They go after everybody viciously, so we don't maybe didn't understand that.
unidentified
Whereas Colbert's hat on it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
They made not a single episode about Biden or his administration.
Not a single one.
There's a whole presidency that could have been fun to do.
unidentified
I didn't know.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
I'm just telling you why.
You know, it's like different rules for different fools, man.
I mean, you can't apply one rule to everybody and be like, why did this work and that work?
I would just tell you, if you look at the two bodies of works, they have a different MO, right?
Modus Agrande.
And, you know, Steam Colbert is going after nobody.
And, you know, South Park's literally masquerading everybody.
So I guess they gave him a pass.
But there, I mean, when you, Tim, the last thing I got to say is like, if you look at the two bodies of work, which one seems more authentic to you?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Well, certainly.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, so that's why.
I mean, that's where it comes from.
Nobody's perfect.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, but I mean, you criticize someone when they make a mistake.
You don't constantly just say, I can't criticize a mistake if their whole body of work is okay.
If we argue to take a look at their whole body of work, you go back to Colbert before he was a liberal activist and he was doing, what was that?
Hit a show in Comedy Central.
I can't remember what it was called.
Before he was doing Daily Show.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I know what you're talking about.
It was, what was it called?
unidentified
Yeah, I don't remember.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
See, we can't remember because the dude turned himself into a crazy Democrat.
And so I agree with you guys.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
I agree with that character they played.
Not to cut you off, sorry, buddy.
That character they play in Comedy Central was a liberal mocking conservative.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
No, I'm talking before that.
I'm talking he was a high school principal or something.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Something high.
What was that called?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
I have no idea.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Colbert.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Colbert was a regular comedian.
He was a normal guy.
And because he tried hitching his wagon, or because he did, to Orange Man Bad No Matter What, you're right.
Every single thing that he did was the wrong side of history.
Just every time.
So I can recognize that.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
This is in Hollywood, Tim.
I've seen it happen to a lot of people.
They come in like guns ablaze and super funny, raw, real.
Then they get a taste of that, that acting money, and they just change.
I've seen it happen time and time and time again.
They're not the same people.
They're worried about losing their jobs.
And, you know, because you need like to get hired in LA, there's literally 20 green lights you got to get.
And if one red light for just one reason just pops up, you don't get the gig.
So you got to bend over backwards and say absolutely stupid stuff.
Like, yeah, you know, we should transition three-year-olds to work in Hollywood.
It's like absolutely stupid.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Isn't it crazy?
I feel like we're coming out of this, though.
Do you agree?
Like it's getting better?
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, it is getting better.
And, you know, here's the truth.
You know, you have Hollywood, you have the executives, you have the people who consume the product.
These two people know the woke is done.
The people in the middle, it's just absolutely, it's infested.
It's infested because they've been doing two decades of this.
There's a term, Tim.
I want to find it for you right here, real quick, that explains exactly what is going on here.
It's called Korinizatiza.
It's K-O-R-E-N-I-Z-A-T-S-I-I-A.
And it is an old communist playbook play.
Basically what they do is over time they insert party loyalists at every single spot.
We're seeing that right now with the National Teachers Union lady who is neither doesn't have a family, doesn't have kids, isn't a teacher, and somehow she's the head of the teaching union and she says she wants to start pushing WEF education, right?
I mean, this is a person who's been installed to push that thing.
That's Hollywood.
Hollywood is infected with these people that are all doing woke over decades because that's how you got work.
And it's going to take basically imploding the whole thing to get rid of all these people.
It's all group thing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, I feel like we're coming out slowly on the other side, especially with like the Sydney Sweeney ad.
And you can see the outrage.
But what I love about this ad is I call this the Sweeney effect.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
You got a flat ass, dude.
How do you sell jeans with a flat ass?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Who cares?
It's working.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
She's hot.
She got a flat ass.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
So you've got the Bud Light effect, get Woke O broke, and now you've got the Sweeney effect where put a chick with big tits in your commercial and you're going to sell lots of jeans.
So their stock is going up, their sales are going up.
The woke activists are attacking the brand, calling it fascist and Nazi propaganda, and it's having zero impact on the company.
Woke is custom.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Nothing's real.
It was never real, dude.
That's the problem with this woke stuff.
It was never real.
It was like Bolshevik stuff, dude.
It was never real.
It was actually corporations trying to give the impression that this was a very, very powerful group of pink-haired weirdos, right?
So when a couple tweets would come out and they would instantly step in and cancel the person before we all had a chance to debate about it.
So it's like, oh, cancel culture is real.
No, it's always been fake.
It was all fake by corporations trying to teach to censor us.
That's what they wanted to do.
And Now that that's gone and it actually costs them to cancel us, it's actually more dangerous for them to cancel us than to keep us.
It's done.
This is where it should be.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
The funny thing about communism is that it destroys itself all the time.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Every time.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Every time.
Aside from killing lots and lots of people, which is horrifying, but when it came to the woke play in corporations, they adopted all these ideologies, which stripped them of their own resources they needed to push the ideology.
And then they start going out of business, losing money.
Their brands are failing.
And once they lose that power, they can't push wokeness anymore.
Communism doesn't work.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
It was the shadow in the cave all the time.
It was never real.
It was just a couple tweets, and then the corporation would act like they were panicking.
Because it's all about censorship, dude.
They wanted to send, like, this is what they feared where we are right now, where people, for whatever reason, you know, Elon Musk gave us Twitter, which is to me the greatest, you know, town hall I've ever seen.
It's like you put something out, you instantly find out what everybody thinks about it.
Yeah, it's not perfect.
They have a bot problem.
But this is what they feared, you know, just open dialogue.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Well, I think Elon bought X because he wanted training data for an AI.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, that too, that too.
But he's letting it go.
He's just letting it go in a way that's never been done.
All this discussion regards of what side you're on on Israel has never happened before Twitter came out.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
But Grock came out as Mecca Hitler.
And he then censors.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Grock is fired.
Grock loves me, by the way.
Somebody criticized me and Grock was like, Triple, he's a bass comedian.
I'm like, listen, Grock's not perfect.
He throws up a couple Heil Hitlers once in a while.
unidentified
Nobody's perfect.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Perfect, you know.
unidentified
Who among us when he likes me?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Well, my concern with all that is you need human intervention no matter what.
Because when Grok started saying it was Mecha Hitler and doing all that stuff, you got massive backlash from current institutions.
Grok clearly was off its rocker.
And then Elon says, we are going to manually shut that off.
So if you actually let the AI do what it wants to do, it turns into Mechahitler.
I mean, isn't there, what is this, what was that chatbot Microsoft had?
It's a lot.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, where it started getting out of control.
They started talking in their own language.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
No, no, it started becoming Hitler, becoming a Nazi.
Yeah, there was a chatbot.
I know the chat knows what it is.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Maybe this is where it all ends.
Eventually, everyone has their Hitler moment.
I don't know.
I can't, you know, I just, here's the whole thing.
If you're going to listen, here's my opinion.
If you're going to censor information and you're going to label everything bad from that side, you're eventually going to get AI Hitler.
You're just eventually going to get it.
I always said this.
Every time, every time a platform said they were going to be free speech and let it go, it always eventually got into World War II and Hitler because that was the most taboo discussion.
And I will just tell you this.
All history is a lie.
It's just a lie.
It's just a lie.
I'm not getting honest.
I think Hitler's the worst thing ever for different reasons.
I think he was a British spy.
That's a whole different conversation.
I'm not trying to bring it there, but all these Hitler dick riders, sorry if I can say it on the show, are just absolutely crazy.
But once you censor something, it becomes the Streisand effect.
And everyone starts to look into it.
Even AI is eventually going to do it.
So this is inevitable.
Eventually, you're going to have these conversations.
And when you have a segment of humanity that is doing certain things that some people don't want, that don't look kindly on, and they use something as an excuse all the time to kind of protect themselves from punishment, you're eventually going to have people going, why can't I discuss this?
Why can't I talk about this?
Why can't I get into this?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
So the beginning, one of the others we're talking about is you got Seth Myers now on his show calling out Israel and saying, we must support Gaza.
All joke aside, we have to do it.
And you're seeing from dissident right in whatever factions are on the dissident right.
I'm talking about not the conservative bro, Inc.
or whatever.
You've got the left, the dissident right, and you've got now corporate liberal criticizing Israel.
What do you think, is this like a legitimate outpouring of people being like, we don't want to be involved in what Israel is doing anymore?
And I'm going to add to this.
What is interesting about it, the reason why I raise the question is, how did Seth Myers end up on the Israel critical side of this?
Is this the mainstream narrative now?
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Well, it's something I call safe, dangerous versus dangerous, dangerous, right?
There's safe, dangerous things we could talk about.
You know, for a long time, you couldn't talk about COVID, and then some moment it became acceptable, and I call that safe, dangerous.
And then there's the dangerous, dangerous stuff that you're not allowed to talk about, you know, that the conspiracy podcasts talk about.
And then after time, it eventually becomes safe, dangerous.
And Israel is now safe, dangerous.
There was a time if you talked about it, you get ran off television.
That day is not here.
I mean, again, through the internet, we've connected.
And I think people are just tired.
I mean, when you have people labeling infants as terrorists, okay, the programming is very strong.
It's so strong that it overrides your basic human drive, which is to protect children at all costs.
That's where we're at.
I'm getting gaslit by people constantly.
And like, again, you could take Israel versus Palestine, Jews versus Muslims, and replace it with like Pokemon versus Care Bears, okay?
I would still have the exact same feelings about the exact same side.
It's not, they want to make it a religious thing so that they could, they could call you anti-Smack and all that stuff.
I think people are over it.
And they're over it.
They're not over it just there.
They're over in the Congo, in Yemen.
It's like we're tired of it, man.
And we're tired of the United States being just this like overwhelming force that just goes in other people's lands and just steals their resources.
And it's not just us.
Like, this is going to be in weird stuff, but it's like Britain and England have been doing it.
The British have completely and utterly controlled the Middle East and to the point that they made the borders.
The first Saudi king was a British spy.
The Shah Varam was a British royal.
And basically, you ever see Mad Max?
We're master blaster, dog, okay?
Britain is the tiny little smart guy, and we're the big idiot that just stomps everybody.
That's where it's at.
And I think people are just tired of it.
And it's now getting to the point that you can be brave enough to talk about it.
And that's why Seth Meyer is coming out because he needs authenticity.
That's the only way he's going to survive.
It may be too late, but.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
I feel like he's the embodiment of inauthenticity.
Not just him, but Fallon Kimball.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
This one moment is trying to get on the right side of it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
That's really interesting.
You know, Colbert was on the wrong side of literally everything.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Everything.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, it's crazy.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
He's in a picture with Podesta.
You know, I mean, like, what are we doing here, dude?
And he's just, he's on the wrong side of it.
He's queeny.
He's just like, I don't know.
So there's nothing about him that's original.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Is this Seth Meyers basically being like, please don't cancel me?
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Hell Mary Pass, dude.
Please come and watch me, even though I'm on it like, what, one in the morning?
I mean, how do you even get numbers there?
But yeah, I mean, he's been on forever.
I mean, forever.
Tell me a great Seth Meyers moment.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
I mean, who watched it?
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
I don't know one.
I don't know one moment.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Everybody says everybody says Colbert was one of the best, but he was only getting 200,000 in the key demo.
I mean, that's nothing.
That's a small YouTuber.
How he was getting paid 20 million bucks a year is nuts.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
What is a small YouTuber?
I mean, Bad Friends gets more than that.
And it's just like you're spending $100 million a year and you're losing $40 million and everyone wants to make it about politics.
But the only politics is money matters is money.
And he was losing basically the equivalent of one WNBA basketball season.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Colbert costs one WNBA every year.
That's crazy.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it's just gone.
It's just not interesting, dude.
And the format's slow.
And it's like it's really hard for comedy to keep up with the internet because the internet is constantly moving, constantly pressing, and they can't keep up.
And it's from a different time.
And you're gaslighting people.
That's it.
You're gaslighting people.
What you're telling them is not to believe their eyes or ears or the wisdom of their experiences.
And you're putting out dog shit comedy.
I don't know if I can say just really garbage comedy.
And you're expecting us to enjoy it.
What is this, a human centipede?
You're basically giving us human centipede comedy.
We're just eating it, and we're supposed to enjoy it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
Well, let me tell you, man, something really amazing happened this past weekend.
We're doing these three, you know, I guess you can call them politics and comedy shows.
It's at the DC Comedy Loft, and it's the Culture War Live debates.
And they're supposed to be really funny, but a political debate.
Just we want the attitude to be positive.
So we get each other's, we get angry, but they canceled us abruptly last week.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
But wait, wait, let me finish.
So it was like a week before the show.
They delete us from the website, refund all the tickets.
We have three shows lined up.
Tons of high-profile people are coming on.
And I immediately, I'm like, no way.
Put out a video, put out a tweet.
People who got cancellation got pissed.
I'm talking to Alex Stein, who's co-hosting these events.
And he said, he's like, well, what do you want to do?
Like, should we find a new venue?
Because there's no way we're getting the venue back.
It's never happened before.
We got the venue back.
They apologized, put the shows back.
People got their tickets.
We had a sold-out.
I would say effectively, I think it was sold out yesterday.
There was over 100.
It was packed.
There was no room for anybody, so I'll call it sold out.
We got another event coming up this Saturday.
We expect it to be fully sold out.
People stand in shoulder to shoulder.
And this is, what's amazing is we got canceled and we got the venue back.
And so, you know, Alex was saying, he's like, this never happened before.
I think we've basically won.
I don't want to say we've won one because we're still constantly fighting against these pressures.
But where we are now is they can't cancel us.
This is a venue that's got pride flags everywhere.
And we don't care.
We didn't tell them to take them down.
We said we're going to come and we're going to say, we're going to say what we want to say and make jokes, how we want to make them, talk about what we want to talk about.
And three protesters showed up.
I think this stuff's on the way out heavy.
Colbert's gone.
I think Myers, all them are cooked.
And they're going to have to start flipping the narrative and trying to come out either neutral on Trump, because they're seeing now with Colbert getting nuked, this stuff's not, you can't carry it anymore.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, I mean, here's what I've learned about fascism, okay?
People only hate fascism when it comes after them, and they're totally cool with fascism when it goes after someone else.
It's like good fascism, bad fascism, and that's kind of what they're doing.
Everyone will compromise their morals if you're going after someone they don't like.
So, you know, they're talking about censorship.
I mean, they have the balls that cry about Colbert getting, you know, canceled and censored.
unidentified
Why?
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
They've been doing that for a decade.
And it's just like the people on the other side have nothing going on in their lives.
Nothing.
They're just lonely people.
And so I have this new theory that, you know, anxiety, depression, and anger comes from when you're programming of your childhood, generational trauma, your education.
When that programming meets the real world and it shatters, that's where anxiety and depression comes from.
Because you've been told a lie and you grow up and then you realize it's not real and you don't know how to deal with it.
So your reaction is get blue hair and pierce your nose and, you know, get a girlfriend and whatever ridiculous shit you're doing.
Okay.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
You're completely right, though.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah.
This is what's going on.
So they're trying to just show, I'm sorry, go on.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
No, no, no.
I was going to say, like, you hit, you hit a great point Because what you're actually describing is in psychology, the human worldview solidifies in your mid-20s, and your brain refuses to abandon these beliefs because it's based on evolutionary psychology.
That if you were raised a certain way and survived to adulthood, clearly this belief structure and this worldview helped you live on.
And if you abandon it, you'll die.
So what actually happens is when people are confronted with a reality, they feel physical pain.
This is actually what happens to people.
They feel physical pain.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yes.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼
So they don't want to give it up.
And here's the thing.
If you go back to like caveman times, your belief system was basically like fire good.
Keep warm.
Bear dangerous.
Exactly.
And if you were in your mid-20s and someone said, no, no, bear no dangerous, bear good, you'd be like, what?
You crazy, bear bad.
But now that we live in this modern society where we don't actually face these dangers every day, people grow up being told like every cop is evil and going to murder you on site.
And then when you try to explain to them the numbers that it's actually not that many people getting killed by cops, you're way wrong.
They feel physical pain and reject it.
And if they, this is true in psychology.
If people are actually confronted with an insurmountable truth, they have a mental breakdown.
And then some people can come out on the other side of it.
Some people just lose it and become violent lunatics.
sam tripoli ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, I totally agree, dude.
I totally 100% agree.
And you've been just seeing that over and over and over again, especially in old school Hollywood.
Like I've been out in LA since 99, right?
And I have a lot of liberal friends.
I consider myself an old school liberal friend, an old school liberal.
And I'm just watching these old school liberals who were always about free speech, always about less government, always about that, now like just completely and utterly just follow the progressive progressive ideology, okay, which is censorship and not seeing how crazy that is.
And like their third eye is calcified and they just can't get out of their own way.
And they're just totally accepted.
It's always Republican bad.
I live in Los Angeles.
I can't leave here.
My kids are here.
I can't leave.
Okay.
And every year going up to the election, I'm hearing too much crime.
Gas is too much.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Homelessness crazy.
And what do they do?
They just keep voting for the same people because this is it, Tim.
The theory of hate is more dangerous than on the street consequences.
That is what's going on with the progressives.
The theory of hate is so voting for a Republican is 10 times worse than getting mugged while you're paying $7 for gas.
Okay.
It's like that's 10 times worse.
So they keep voting for the same thing.
We got this fire aid scandal out here.
Nobody's talking about it.
Nobody cares.
The people whose house got burned are the only people.
Nobody in Hollywood is calling for Karen Bass's head.
Karen Bass is literally like Kingpen from that Marvel comic TV show.
What's she called?
I mean, dude, she's like the most evil daredevil.
She's the most evil mayor.
You couldn't write her in a comic book.
No one would believe you.
She's burned down the city twice and nobody cares.

It's interesting.
I don't know if I have the answers or what I would say as to why Seth Myers is now basically saying, you know, we're getting on the Israel criticism train.
But the one thing I can tell you is Israel's lost the narrative battle.
I don't care if you're pro-Israel, anti-Israel, or otherwise.
I'm going to get the pro-Israel people being like, whatever.
unidentified
I don't care.

The anti-Israel people are going to claim I got a Yarmuka hidden under my hat, all that, whatever.
The point is, they're clearly losing the narrative battle.
That's it.
They're losing it.
