| It's me. | ||
| I'm back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Tim is healthy. | |
| It's all good. | ||
| Tim is healthy. | ||
| No need to fear. | ||
| No need to be calling for FOA requests to make sure the government doesn't have him captive. | ||
| He is healthy. | ||
| He's good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But, you know, we're moving things around. | |
| There's so much happening here at Timcast. | ||
| There's so many events. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have these live events. | |
| We have the Boonies skate events. | ||
| There's so much going on that he asked me today to hold it down for the Thursday live show. | ||
| And I'm like, you guys know who I am at this point. | ||
| I think they'll be okay with it. | ||
| Are you guys okay with it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I hope so. | |
| If not, you know, maybe just let me operate a little bit. | ||
| Let me cook. | ||
| I've said this before. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I've made this plea. | |
| You know, I see some of you holding your mouse above the X button. | ||
| You're about to close out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I don't think that's right. | |
| I think you should set you should enjoy the show because we have a huge, huge show today. | ||
| We have some really, really big stories. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, the big one, and it just dropped like right before the show. | |
| This report, the Daily Wire actually was first on it. | ||
| I think they were the first on it. | ||
| Is the DOJ is looking to ban transgenders from owning guns. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know if you are much of a news junkie, but as you've seen recently, they're not the most responsible gun owners. | |
| It's a huge problem. | ||
| We'll break it down a little more. | ||
| We also have Gavin Newsome, the love affair, the Democrats' love affair with Gavin Newsome is getting a little weird. | ||
| It's getting a little creepy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The glazing is a little out of control. | |
| So we're going to get into that as well. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We also had this report that the Trump at Trump advisors are discussing giving Curtis Sleewa, Eric Adams, New York mayoral candidates, thinking about giving them the gig in the White House to get him out of the way. | |
| So we'll break that down. | ||
| We'll break down the status of Zoron, Mayor Zoron. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It looks like it's going to be Mayor Zoron. | |
| So this is a nice effort from the White House to try and mitigate this as much as possible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we're going to be joined at the half hour mark by Viva Fry. | |
| He's going to come on. | ||
| We'll discuss the DOJ consideration, deliberation, whatever you want to call it. | ||
| We'll discuss that a little more. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's going to be a really, really good show. | |
| So you guys are in for a treat. | ||
| So yeah, with that, I am your host, Tate Brown, holding it down today for Tim Poole. | ||
| I think maybe Tate Thursday, that could be a good potential name. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll workshop it. | |
| I have a suit on. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, you know, I don't know if that's a little too much for a noon live show. | ||
| For a Thursday show? | ||
|
unidentified
|
For a Thursday, you know, like, you know, it's not like I'm working at a bank or anything. | |
| I was going to go to Nat. | ||
| I've been at NatCon this week. | ||
| A few people said hello at NatCon. | ||
| So it's really great to meet everyone. | ||
| So I think I might pop by later today. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But yeah, I've been at NatCon and a lot of great people there, a lot of great speeches. | |
| I would recommend checking their Twitter feed to see the status of conservatism in America. | ||
| We're actually seeing some really good, really good stuff coming out of NatCon's great. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A bunch of high IQ patriots there. | |
| But yeah, with that, Tate Thursday, we'll see him. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe it'll be a thing. | |
| I don't know. | ||
| Are you guys okay with this? | ||
| I think that'd be a lot of fun. | ||
| Make it a thing, a Tate Thursday thing. | ||
| So we'll see. | ||
| I have producer Surge in the cut. | ||
| He's holding it down, the GOAT. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know him. | |
| You love him, Surge. | ||
| He's the best. | ||
| So with that, let's get into it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But first, we have our monster monster sponsors. | |
| You know it. | ||
| You love it. | ||
| Cast Brew Coffee. | ||
| The best. | ||
| Are you low energy? | ||
| Are you a low energy pannigan? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| Maybe you need a little Casper down the hatch. | ||
| Maybe that'll, maybe they'll get you locked in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We got some great stuff. | |
| Unfortunately, the Alex Stein primetime grind is sold out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, really? | |
| It's sold out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It says right here, you know, it is what it is. | |
| But show last week. | ||
| It's true. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| As you can tell, it works. | ||
| Yeah, it clearly works. | ||
| It clearly works. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So with that, that's indicative of the quality of the Casper brand that it can just really elevate the human experience. | |
| It's an amplifier, an upper, if you will. | ||
| Disavow. | ||
| With that, we have Appalachian Knights. | ||
| This is a fantastic. | ||
| This is my go-to blend because it's as dark as pitch. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, it is, you know what they say. | |
| When you go black, you can't go back, right? | ||
| This is what they say, specifically when it comes to coffee. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is true in other regards as well in my life. | |
| I won't get into that. | ||
| You know, this isn't a therapy session, but I definitely rings true with coffee, and I'm willing to admit that. | ||
| I am a black, black coffee enjoyer. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Black coffee matters. | |
| We also have the 1776 signature blend from the Josie special. | ||
| We have a lot of great stuff here. | ||
| We have a low acidity blend. | ||
| Which one is that, Serge? | ||
| Which is the low acidity? | ||
| It's Ian's Graphene Dream. | ||
| Ian's Graphene Dream. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This thing is like a smash hit. | |
| I say it all the time. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| I was stunned, stunned at the live show to see that stuff just flying off the shelves. | ||
| I mean, it looked like a theme accamp. | ||
| People are diving over each other. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're fighting Charlie. | |
| I saw one guy get a, he bought a skateboard just to hit Charlie over the head with it to get some Ian's graphene. | ||
| I mean, it was absolute pandemonium. | ||
| It looked like Hurricane Katrina over there. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So luckily, you can just buy it online. | |
| I don't think the people there realize that. | ||
| You can just buy it online. | ||
| We will just mail it to your house if you buy it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's really not that complicated. | |
| So get you some cash brew. | ||
| We also have Boonies. | ||
| Boonies is, you know, Boonie's stock is really high right now. | ||
| I'm not going to lie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, Boonies is taking off. | |
| We saw a lot of skateboards. | ||
| Sold a lot of skateboards. | ||
| The skate event was sick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And this is me. | |
| I'm a layman, right? | ||
| I don't know anything about skating. | ||
| You know, I mean, I've been known to watch a little Rob Deer deck every here and there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, I've been known for that. | |
| But beyond that, you know, and a little Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 was, you know, that was instrumental in my life as a classic, as Serge says. | ||
| But yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I mean, you know, it's been just sick to like learn. | ||
| I'm just learning firsthand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the skate event was amazing. | |
| You got to go over to the Boonies YouTube, and I think it's on Rumble as well, but I know for sure it's on YouTube to check out the skate event. | ||
| It was really, really cool. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They played games of skate. | |
| It's kind of like a horse, but for skate tricks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Next one next week. | |
| Next one's next week. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There we go. | |
| So just lock in. | ||
| I mean, it's fantastic stuff. | ||
| And head over to boonies, shop.boonieshq.com and grab you a board. | ||
| You know, and we talk about it all the time. | ||
| There's some great boards. | ||
| We have the uncancelable board. | ||
| If you know the story, you know the story. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're reclaiming this logo because it was cancel culture. | |
| It was one of the first victims in the skating world of cancel culture. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we have the begay and don't be gay boards. | |
| Obviously, Milo has some interesting thoughts on these, on the selection that you have an option. | ||
| So it's really a beautiful thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A lot of great boards on there. | |
| So head on over to Boonies and get you a board. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just do it, man. | |
| This is great stuff. | ||
| And 55 bucks for just a high, high quality board. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Even if you're not a skater, it could be like a wall ornament. | |
| You know, it's a beautiful thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Anyway, with that, I digress. | |
| Let's get into the first story. | ||
| This was Mary Margaret Olihan reported this. | ||
| I think I got her last name right, Olihan. | ||
| Breaking. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Justice Department is deliberating banning guns for transgenders as part of a range of options blocking mentally unstable individuals from committing acts of violence. | |
| The Daily Wire has learned. | ||
| Story to come. | ||
|
unidentified
|
She followed up with a little more info here. | |
| I'm told that a senior DOJ official said discussing the matter: quote, We're not playing semantics with word like dysphoria. | ||
| We're talking about, it's YouTube friendly, transgenders, and we don't think they should have guns. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And it's so true and it's so base that a senior DOJ official is saying this because it is so true. | |
| As we saw, I mean, look, you saw it last week. | ||
| I mean, it was really, really tragic, tragic thing. | ||
| I actually covered it on the show. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Horrible, horrible stuff. | |
| And again, this happened again. | ||
| This is now, this isn't just a one-off thing. | ||
| This is a pattern of mentally disturbed, transgender people taking it out on just good, normal, normal people taking their pain and their anger and their dysphoria and inflicting it on the public. | ||
| We got to nip it in the bud. | ||
| The patience ran very thin. | ||
| And it's just, I think we're all relieved to see that the DOJ is doing something about it. | ||
| I mean, this was last week, obviously, a refresher was the, and in Minneapolis, obviously a transgender, it was a man. | ||
| He was born a man, and he still is a man, and his bones will indicate that he's a man. | ||
| He went into a Catholic school or a Catholic church that was hosting Mass that was attended by kids from the local school, the Annunciation church, and fired through the stained glass and killed people and maimed people, children. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Horrible, horrible stuff. | |
| Shocked the conscience of Americans to some degree. | ||
| We're also kind of used to it and desensitized, but we're starting to realize now in the Trump era that you can do things about this. | ||
| You don't just have to take this stuff lying down. | ||
| This was yesterday. | ||
| This was from the post-millennial. | ||
| LGBTQ, whatever, activists protest JD Vance as he and Usha visit Minnesota. | ||
| Usha's the second lady. | ||
| Pay respects to Catholic school children murdered by trans killer. | ||
| I'll read here. | ||
| Vice President JD Vance and second lady Usha Vance visited the Annunciation Catholic Church and school on Wednesday, which one week ago was the site of a mass shooting that saw the deaths of two children after trans-identified gunman Robert, quote, Robin Westman. | ||
| That's his moniker, Robin. | ||
| His name's Robert. | ||
| Opened fire on the school's first Mass of the year. | ||
| The Vance's were seen laying flowers outside the building among a sea of other bouquets and arrangements, while Usha Vance wore black and JD Vance making the sign of the cross as they stood together. | ||
| Obviously, JD Vance is a Catholic. | ||
| So this, you know, hit close to home for him. | ||
| I believe they're raising their children Catholic as well. | ||
| So, you know, I've spoken to a lot of Catholics over the last week and Christians in general. | ||
| Just really disturbing that you can send your kids to school and not know if you're going to see them at the end of the day. | ||
| It's really just horrifying times we live in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'll play a little video here of the vice president and second lady arriving. | |
| Obviously with the flowers to pay homage and mourn the victims. | ||
| So we see here. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And you see here, obviously, the arrangements up along the sidewalk here. | ||
| And there's other shots and there's just, it's everywhere. | ||
| The community, obviously, it's just shattered, heartbroken. | ||
| It's just horrific stuff. | ||
| And yeah, so this is obviously a really somber but touching moment. | ||
| Obviously, this is something that there's a degree of sacredness and seriousness and somberness. | ||
| But of course, and we see here, there's some more coverage from the event. | ||
| The two students lost were eight-year-old Fletcher Merkel and 10-year-old Harper Moiske. | ||
| Rest in peace. | ||
| But, of course, with the left and their fantastic optics, here we go. | ||
| Outside the church, protesters were heard shouting, quote, you're a coward. | ||
| Protect our kids and do better at Vance. | ||
| And the group was seen flying a pride flag. | ||
| So the flag of the group that was obviously one of their people perpetrated the shooting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll play the video here. | |
| This is from Dustin Grage. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So it's just like... | ||
| What? | ||
| It's absolutely mental. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dude, the plot is gone, man. | |
| I mean, look at these freaks. | ||
| Look at these people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They will not let these children rest in peace without inflicting and imposing their, it's not even political. | |
| It's just like it's another form of mental instability without inflicting this on the public and inflicting this on Vice President JD Vance, as he's simply there to pay respect. | ||
| There's nothing political about his showing up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, that's just what you do. | |
| And like I said earlier, I mean, he's a Catholic, so this especially hits close to home for him. | ||
| Here, Vance wrote after his visit: I just left Minneapolis where I was honored to meet with a number of grieving families and hear about their beautiful children, in particular, Harper and Fletcher, who died in the Annunciation school shooting. | ||
| I also met another beautiful girl who is recovering well. | ||
| Thank God. | ||
| Thank God for that. | ||
| We discussed a lot, but all the families had a couple of immediate requests. | ||
| First, to pray for Sophia, who continues to fight for her life every day. | ||
| Yes, please pray for Sophia. | ||
| Pray for her health. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Pray for her swelling to be controlled and pray for the strength for her parents, doctors, and nurses. | |
| There's these beautiful children here that are no longer with us because of our enabling of these mental disorders as a society. | ||
| So horrible, horrible, horrible stuff. | ||
| He said that there is a quote mental health crisis in the U.S., noting that Americans, quote, take way more psychiatric medication than any other nation on earth. | ||
| And I think it is time for us to start asking some very hard questions about the root causes of this violence. | ||
| So if you saw the show Thursday, we had a, what I'll say, a mental health expert, right? | ||
| Naomi Best. | ||
| She's fantastic. | ||
| She's been on the Culture War before. | ||
| And I mean, she really is. | ||
| There's not many people that are more in the know on this kind of stuff that are bold enough to actually say what's happening. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's a lot of people that know the industry, right? | |
| But a lot of them have biases that want to sort of reinforce the system and reinforce the status quo. | ||
| Naomi is not one of them. | ||
| She's very clued in on what's going on here. | ||
| And she reiterated this. | ||
| She, you know, obviously she's a bit hesitant to make these bold, you know, like widespread declarations, but she definitely laid out the problem in a very, in a very great way. | ||
| I would recommend it's on the Rumble show from Thursday, or if you're watching elsewhere, it's on YouTube on the Culture War channel. | ||
| And yeah, I mean, the psychiatric medication, I mean, they're handing these things out left and right. | ||
| You just need a pulse, really, to get a prescription for these kinds of things. | ||
| She even explained the situation where people are able to get these things online, right? | ||
| Like that's, it's, it's just absolutely out of control and it's frying Americans' brains. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And beyond that, now the DOJ is doing something about it, right? | |
| I mean, this is always the critique from the left. | ||
| And this is what, of course, every, not every, but the majority of Democrats were saying. | ||
| You know, Jacob Frey, what is his name, the mayor, and the Waltz, they get up and they say, oh, thoughts and prayers. | ||
| What is that going to do? | ||
| Right? | ||
| We want to see action. | ||
| The problem is we actually know what to do, which is investigate these psychiatric medications being distributed in mass. | ||
| And, you know, and also the DOJ now saying maybe it's not a good idea for mentally unstable people with a very high rate of suicide to have guns. | ||
| True. | ||
| What gave it away? | ||
| Yeah, what gave it away, right? | ||
| And so, yeah, so it's like, okay, thoughts and prayers. | ||
| We're offering thoughts and prayers, which is ultimately the most important thing because that is, you know, prayer is a very powerful tool. | ||
| But in addition, we're actually implementing, we're implementing solutions, providing solutions. | ||
| And this is one of them. | ||
| And this is something that'll nip this crap in the bud to a large degree is get these guns out of these people's hands. | ||
| They're just clearly mentally unstable. | ||
| And look, I understand there's a lot of Second Amendment purists out there that are very skeptical of any sort of any sort of legislation involving guns. | ||
| It's totally understandable. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And they have the right to be skeptical. | |
| I mean, the last 30, 40, 50 years even, the government's relationship with the 2A community has obviously been quite frosty. | ||
| They like to create pretenses to establish gun control and punish well-to-do gun owners. | ||
| But I would make the argument that this is not the case. | ||
| This is not targeting well-to-do gun owners. | ||
| This is targeting people that, quite frankly, should be institutionalized. | ||
|
unidentified
|
People that are institutionalized don't have access to guns. | |
| And if we can't quite get institutionalization for these people across the finish line, this is a good start, right? | ||
| This is just a step in that direction is slowly taking away the tools that they use and the mechanisms that they use to inflict harm on Americans. | ||
| Because, you know, I pointed it out last week. | ||
| You just have a lot of people in this country that have nothing to lose. | ||
| And we just have to sit around and twiddle our thumbs waiting for one of them to snap, which seems to be happening more and more. | ||
| It's what happened last week in Minneapolis is one of them just decided to snap one day. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We need to get serious about it. | |
| And so it's very refreshing that the DOG, DOG, the DOJ is deliberating this. | ||
| And I do think that they wouldn't let this get out, right, unless they were serious. | ||
| We're serious about it, as they should be, as they should be, because those two children would likely be with us if there was, as a country, we took this transgender madness a bit more seriously and rightfully so nip this in the bud, as I said earlier. | ||
| So with that, we'll stay tuned, right? | ||
| I mean, maybe we'll get some action. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll get like a release from the DOJ, a statement of some sort of sort of what their plans are, how they'll implement this. | |
| Again, like I said earlier, if you're a 2A, and so am I, right? | ||
| I mean, the 2A should not be touched, shall not be infringed. | ||
| It's clear. | ||
| But we do need to institutionalize these people. | ||
| And this is what part of the institutionalization is going to look like. | ||
| You got to do what you got to do. | ||
| You can't let mentally unstable, suicidal people possess weapons when they clearly say over and over again that they just want to harm you, right? | ||
| They just want to harm you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You don't give someone a weapon when they openly say that they want to harm you. | |
| Again, if you doubt that, look at the reaction on Reddit to this shooting, and you're not going to see thoughts and prayers. | ||
| You're going to see quite the opposite. | ||
| You're going to see celebration and joy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So grim stuff. | |
| Grateful for the DOJ that they're taking a look at this and heavily considering it. | ||
| And the senior DOJ official, whoever you are, very based. | ||
| Keep up the good work. | ||
| But with that, we'll shift gears to our second story. | ||
| Let's get into this one first. | ||
| Let's get into this one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This one's really interesting. | |
| This was the post-millennial reporting here. | ||
| Breaking Trump advisors discuss giving Sliwa and Adams admin jobs to clear a path for Cuomo win. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Report. | |
| And I'll read here. | ||
| This was Hayden Cunningham of the post-millennial. | ||
| President Donald Trump's advisors have discussed the possibility of offering New York City Mayor Eric Adams a position in the administration as a way to reduce the chances of Democrat socialist candidate Zorhan Mamdani winning the city's upcoming mayoral election. | ||
| According to the New York Times, the talks have also included the idea of giving Curtis Sleewa, the Republican candidate, a spot in the administration. | ||
| This move would be aimed at boosting former governors Andrew Cuomo's chances against Mamdani by clearing the field. | ||
| The Times reported that discussion within the Trump circle about such a plan goes back weeks. | ||
| While it remains uncertain what the plan will be moving forward, the issue has gained urgency as the New York City mayoral race heads into its final stretch before the November election, which is rapidly, rapidly emerging. | ||
| I don't think people realize it's right around the corner. | ||
|
unidentified
|
November in general, there's a lot, obviously, midterms. | |
| Trump intermediaries have been in touch with Adams' team about the possibility of him dropping out of the race. | ||
| One source said that talks were going in, quote, several different directions. | ||
| Trump associates have also spoken about whether Slee would be interested in a federal position despite his long history of saying he has no interest in working in D.C. Obviously, some of New York's real estate executives expressed concern over a potential Mamdani victory, fearing that he would bring in anti-business policies in the city. | ||
| However, Republicans in D.C. are warm on a Mamdani victory, believing it could help paint the Democratic Party poorly leading up to the midterm elections. | ||
| As if the Democrat Party has like excellent PR right now, this is just this would be just a self-imposed L. There's Democrats love Mamdani, right? | ||
| Like half the country is, whether you like it or not, is going to warm up to this guy because that's just the way the media machine works. | ||
| They're going to, it's about shifting the Overton window. | ||
| In the same way that Trump and the Trump admin are able to shift the Overton window to the right, guys like Zorhan Mamdani are able to shift the Overton window within the Democrat Party to the left. | ||
| All that's going to happen with a Mamdani victory is it's just going to create more room for people like him and the Democrat Party. | ||
| That's all that's going to happen. | ||
| You're not going to have this mass awakening where people realize that, oh, these policies don't work because it's not about the policies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's about what he signifies. | |
| It's about what he sort of what he sort of, what message he sends, broadly speaking. | ||
| So, I mean, it's just, that's just a self-imposed L, really. | ||
| You got to, you got to set the tone with these types of things. | ||
| You can't, you got to take, I mean, and I've said, I've made this point before with New York. | ||
| It's like, look, New York City's changed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Cuomo really epitomizes 20th century New York, right? | |
| You know, Italian, you know, kind of more old school Democrat in some ways. | ||
| You know, he's from Queens, has a very thick New York accent. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then you have Zoron, who, just by his accent alone, could be from anywhere in the country. | |
| His name is ambiguous, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Even, you know, people have no idea he's from Uganda, but he's Indian. | |
| People know what's going on. | ||
| It's just a lot of vague, he's just vaguely not American. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's the only way to really put it. | |
| And there's a lot of people like that in New York City in the 21st century. | ||
| Half of Queens, New York, Andrew Cuomo's homeborough and Donald Trump's homeborough are foreign-born. | ||
| Half. | ||
| Half. | ||
| I mean, New York City has dramatic. | ||
| Look, you know, people say, okay, it's always been a hub of immigrants. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really, that's only been the case in the 20th century. | |
| It is a heavily transplant city. | ||
|

So, I mean, you have immigrants and you also have transplants around the country. | |
| So it does have a lot of churn to it. | ||
| But New York had a very identifiable culture, had a very identifiable ethos and the way it carried itself. | ||
| As Donald Trump pointed out, you saw what those New York values were on 9-11 when you saw the brave men of the FDNY and men and women of the FDNY charge up the towers. | ||
| That really epitomizes what New York values are. | ||
| But it's looking increasingly so that that's what New York values were. | ||
| Because if you take a walk around Queens or even Brooklyn, and at this point it's looking like this way in Manhattan, is you're going to see more and more Zorons and less and less Andrew Cuomos, less and less Donald Trump's for that matter. | ||
| I mean, Donald Trump's home neighborhood, Jamaica States. | ||
| I actually lived in Jamaica States when I attended school in Queens. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nothing resembling what Donald Trump grew up in. | |
| There's been a Huge, huge churn of people there. | ||
| Um, and it's not a good thing, it's not a good thing. | ||
| You're, you're, it's, it feels increasingly foreign, increasingly less American. | ||
| And the stock of immigrants that came to New York City previously came, you know, there's problems, right? | ||
| I mean, you had the mafia, organized crime, these sorts of things, but generally, they were, it was much easier to assimilate, assimilate them, right? | ||
| They were coming from Italy, Ireland, they were coming from Eastern Europe, Germany, Trump himself. | ||
| His grandparents on his father's side are German, and his mother was a migrant from Scotland. | ||
| Those someone with that background is going to have a much easier time assimilating to the United States, which has this European culture to it and Christianity as its religion than a guy named Zoram Mamdani from Uganda, who who knows what his religion is, but you know, it's neither here nor there. | ||
| He's Muslim, I think, vaguely Muslim. | ||
| Vaguely. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So he's probably one of those guys. | ||
| You meet these Muslim guys and they, you know, do everything under the sun, you know, knock back a corona, but then if you offer them some bacon, they, you know, come on glued. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So one of those guys. | ||
| If you look, if you've been in a city in the last 10 years, you've met a lot of these types. | ||
| So polling, not looking great. | ||
| Mamdani, up double digits, just about every poll you look at. | ||
| Sienna has him at 44%. | ||
| The American Pulse Researching has him at 37. | ||
| So he's not anywhere near 50%. | ||
| So, right, I mean, you can see, you can see the calculus that the White House is running here, right? | ||
| Which is, okay, you get Cuomo out, you get Sleewa out, you combine, or sorry, you get Sleewa and Eric Adams out, chuck that 28% of Cuomos, that gets you above 50%. | ||
| That gets Cuomo across the finish line. | ||
| But I've said it before, and I'll say it again. | ||
| You're going to have the same problem in four years. | ||
| You keep Zoron out. | ||
| It's like New York City's changed. | ||
| The country's changed. | ||
| Jack Pesobic, he talked about this at the NatCon convention I spoke about earlier, which was a great convention. | ||
| I'm just going to, I'm just going to play this. | ||
| This was a really good soundbite from him. | ||
| I'm going to play his thoughts on Zoron and why this isn't just a one-off thing. | ||
| Like he just kind of happened to slip through the cracks. | ||
| I'll play. | ||
| I'll let Jack explain this. | ||
| Look at the propaganda. | ||
| It's everywhere. | ||
| And it's very simple. | ||
| But we can see when a great city like New York, our greatest city, is on the precipice of being run by a Zorhan Mamdani. | ||
| I think we realize that something has gone absolutely wrong and something has to give. | ||
| Because as I stand here today, we are less than 10 years away from one of America's great cities being run by a Muhammad. | ||
| We know it's coming. | ||
| We can call it out. | ||
| And it is time to say enough is enough. | ||
| Something has to give. | ||
| These people are not American. | ||
| They do not want to be American. | ||
| They do not want to assimilate. | ||
| And they are not interested in assimilation. | ||
| And I say if they don't want to be part of this country, they can go home. | ||
| So true. | ||
| So true. | ||
| That's really concise, excellent way to put it. | ||
| And it's true. | ||
| It's like if you, if you doubt this, if you are part of the way of the way of thought that was outlined in the post-million article, which is well, you know, it'll be a good way to teach New York a lesson. | ||
| Like, this is what you get. | ||
| And it's a great way to show, you know, the American electorate how crazy the Dems have gotten. | ||
| Ask a British person, ask an Englishman how that worked out for him because London, they elected Sadiq Khan, right? | ||
| I don't know how brushed up you are on British politics and UK politics. | ||
| They got this guy in into London. | ||
| You know, London's had some lefty mayors, but this guy's more than a lefty, Sadiq Khan. | ||
| He's an ethno-nationalist for foreigners, vaguely. | ||
| I mean, like, okay, he's Muslim, right? | ||
| He's of Middle Eastern extraction, but he really just goes the bat for anyone that's not English. | ||
| That's the reality of the situation. | ||
| If you look at his rhetoric in the UK, like for example, when London had a spree of huge terrorist attacks, every single time he would come out and he wouldn't say, this is terrible. | ||
| Like, as Muslims, we need to have a conversation about the radicalization in our community or whatever. | ||
| He came out and would just run defense every single time and say, like, oh, why are people being so mean to Muslims? | ||
| Like, we need to be nicer to them. | ||
| You know, they're under attack. | ||
| They feel victimized. | ||
| It's like. | ||
| We feel victimized because you just completely took over a city. | ||
| I mean, just look at a demographic breakdown of London over the last 70, 80 years, and you're going to see it go from like, Bill Maher talked about this. | ||
| Bill Maher talked about on the 70s and 80s when it was like almost entirely English and to an extent Irish. | ||
| He talked about how it was just a completely different city and he used food as his metric to see how the city's changed. | ||
| Usually these diversity lovers, food is really their only talking point they have. | ||
| Say, well, you get more food options. | ||
| But I think when people are getting stabbed on bridges and blown up left and right, you know, a kebab can only do so much to calm the nerves with that sort of thing. | ||
| And New York City's looking down the barrel of the same thing. | ||
| Again, New York City's had some lefty mayors. | ||
| There's no doubt about that. | ||
| Bill de Blasio was, you know, effectively a socialist. | ||
| He's certainly a Marxist in his thought. | ||
| But this is a different breed. | ||
| This is a different animal with Zoron because he views Americans, Americans that have been here, Americans that are here. | ||
| He views them as an enemy and he views them as sort of a roadblock for what he's trying to create, what his sort of new Americans are trying to create, the new America they're trying to create, which just won't be America at all. | ||
| It's just going to be the third world infused with some Marxism and Islam or whatever. | ||
| But it's just, it really is just anti-American. | ||
| That's all it is fundamentally. | ||
| So yeah, I mean, totally agree with what Zoron is, Jack, on Zoron is this shouldn't just be a moment of like, let's rally the troops and keep them out. | ||
| This should be a moment of introspection and a moment where we look nationwide, have a nationwide conversation on what sort of people are we bringing to this country and what are we allowing? | ||
| And it's the same thing, the same conversation with the DOJ. | ||
| It's like, what are we allowing to happen? | ||
| Because, you know, principles, it's good to be principled. | ||
| There's no question about it. | ||
| But at a certain moment when your country is facing extinction, when America's facing a complete change, we need to have a national conversation. | ||
| We need to, like Jack said, realize that something has gone absolutely wrong and that something has to give. | ||
| So with that, I'm going to wrap up this first portion of the show. | ||
| Thank you for watching. | ||
| If you're watching on YouTube, the interview with Viva Fry will be up on the Culture War channel at 4 p.m. | ||
| Again, thanks for watching. | ||
| We'll be back tonight for Timcast IRL at 8 p.m. | ||
| Connor Tomlinson's on the show. | ||
| I'll be on as well, but you got to hear Connor. | ||
| If you don't know Connor, he's an absolute legend. | ||
| He can probably explain. | ||
| He's a Londoner, so he can explain what Sadiq Khan's done and he can give us some forewarnings on what Zoron, a little preview of what Zoron's New York would look like. | ||
| So thanks for watching. | ||
| We'll be back for Timcast IRL. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| With that, you know, I'm getting better at that segue. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Tim makes it look easy. | ||
| We're getting there. | ||
| We're getting there. | ||
| But we're going to get into the interview portion of Viva Fry. | ||
| I do want to open up with this article from the Hill. | ||
| Newsome is becoming, this is from the Hill. | ||
| Newsome is becoming an obsession for Democrats beyond California. | ||
| Democrats have become obsessed with Gavin Newsom as the California governor becomes the topic for operatives, donors, and lawmakers. | ||
| With the 2028 presidential election is still more than three years away. | ||
| Newsome is making the kind of name for himself that could lead to front-runner status, political operatives say. | ||
| Democrat strategist Jamal Simmons said Newsom's name is coming up more than anyone else's in recent weeks, particularly with people outside the political sphere. | ||
| They asked me two questions. | ||
| Do you think he can win? | ||
| And do you think he can be the guy? Simmons said. | ||
| No one ever asked me a single policy question about him. | ||
| So it's very vibes-based. | ||
| Trump, of course, was clowning on him. | ||
| Exaggerating when I said that I received in the mail a Trump 2028 hat from one of his biggest supporters. | ||
| These guys are not. | ||
| It's a warning shot from Trump, but does indicate that even in the White House, they are starting to see Newsom as potentially the frontrunner for the Democrats, which would be great, I think. | ||
| Newsome's pretty easy to beat. | ||
| He's just shot up in polling or in prediction in the betting market. | ||
| He's at 35% now. | ||
| So he's just completely crushing the field on the betting side. | ||
| And even in polling, he's surging. | ||
| You see here in red, his polling has completely shot up over the last few weeks. | ||
| Now he's on par with Kamala Harris, who it's unclear if she's going to run. | ||
| Look, Newsom might be the guy. | ||
| So I think we should bring in Viva. | ||
| I think he might have some thoughts on this. | ||
| I think he could break this down further. | ||
| I'm also going to ask him about the DOJ report that we got. | ||
| I'd be curious to hear his thoughts on that as well. | ||
| So we're getting him in the room here. | ||
| We're getting him situated. | ||
| Let's see here. | ||
| Surge is punching buttons. | ||
| That's what he does. | ||
| He punches buttons better than anyone else, anyone else. | ||
| It's fantastic stuff. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Is he in here? | ||
| I see a black screen. | ||
| Yeah, just give me one second. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So I don't know if he's in. | ||
| Maybe he's in the room. | ||
| These things are always tricky getting these interviews situated. | ||
| It's part of doing things remote. | ||
| Viva, how are you doing? | ||
| Can you hear me? | ||
| Area, how you doing? | ||
| Hey, how's it going? | ||
| Well, thank you for joining. | ||
| I mean, everyone's going to know who you are, I would say. | ||
| But just for people that maybe don't, could you give a quick introduction to who you are and what you do? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I got to make sure my hair is in order. | ||
| I didn't like my makeup person is out today. | ||
| Viva Fry, David Fryheit is my real name for anybody who thought it was Viva, former Montreal litigator or Quebec litigator, now living in Florida, legal analysis, commentary, and following the madness of the world on a minutely basis. | ||
| Legend, legend, the Viva Fry, the legend. | ||
| I'm just glad to be talking to you. | ||
| I want to open up with, I was reading a report from the Hill, not a report, a story from The Hill. | ||
| Newsome's really starting to take a decisive frontrunner position here with the Democrats. | ||
| I mean, there was a Democrat strategist, Jamal Simmons. | ||
| He came out and he's saying everyone he's talking to is Newsome, Newsome, Newsome. | ||
| And you look at the betting market. | ||
| I mean, he's really just up. | ||
| He's like 20, 30 percentage points ahead of everyone else. | ||
| And then in polling, he surged recently. | ||
| I mean, Trump fired off a warning shot this morning. | ||
| I don't know if you saw where he had the Trump 2028 hat on Newsom. | ||
| But the fact that he's firing off a warning shot indicates that even within the White House, there's the view emerging that Newsom might be the frontrunner for 2028. | ||
| I don't know what you're seeing. | ||
| It's astonishing just the caliber of candidates on the left. | ||
| Like you say, if it's not going to be Newsom, who else is it going to be? | ||
| I mean, I take even just plausible candidates. | ||
| It's not going to be Pritzker. | ||
| It's not going to be Whitmer. | ||
| It sure as hell isn't going to be Hochul. | ||
| Who's it going to be? | ||
| AOC? | ||
| It's either Newsom or people who are even more radical. | ||
| But the irony, Newsom is a failure. | ||
| He's an abject failure. | ||
| And so it's nice. | ||
| You know, he's charismatic if you like used car salesmans. | ||
| He's got experience if you like failed politicians. | ||
| And so, you know, but when I was studying philosophy in 25 years ago, I took a class called Philosophy of Jazz. | ||
| And they actually, we studied how people get conditioned to like music. | ||
| That's not even good. | ||
| It's basically how everybody likes pop music. | ||
| It's conditioning. | ||
| You see it every day. | ||
| You get to know it. | ||
| You become familiar with it. | ||
| And then you sort of brainwash yourself into thinking you like it. | ||
| That's what they're doing with Gavin Newsom. | ||
| That's what he's been doing by doing these podcast runs. | ||
| He's clearly got the aspirations going. | ||
| He's adopting Trump tactics on Twitter. | ||
| But just the irony, he's a horrible failed politician. | ||
| I don't know if he's as corrupt to the core as the others are, but immoral and just an abject failure. | ||
| So let him run. | ||
| The only alternative is someone who hasn't had time to fail in government, like an AOC, although she's had her time to fail as well. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| I mean, the one thing that scares me is 45% of the electorate voted for Kamala Harris. | ||
| So I do think to a degree we underestimate the foolishness of the American electorate. | ||
| Someone like Gavin Newsom, I mean, like, I know the resume is horrible, obviously, but when the media machine kicks in, someone like Gavin Newsom, he can polish things up pretty quickly. | ||
| Americans have short memory. | ||
| I wouldn't even say that they're, you know, the electorate is stupid. | ||
| It's, it's, they, it's tribalism. | ||
| Hopefully it's getting a little bit better that people have been exposed to it. | ||
| But, you know, not everybody lives on the internet like we do. | ||
| Not everybody knows Gavin Newsome. | ||
| Forget the affairs, but not everybody knows, you know, Gavin Newsom running on ending homelessness. | ||
| And so, you know, they just don't know. | ||
| People are living their lives and they, you know, they see blue and that's who they vote for. | ||
| And it doesn't matter who it is. | ||
| I ran for the People's Party of Canada in westbound NDG in my riding in Canada. | ||
| I swear to you, if they didn't see that it was a dog, they would have voted Winston for prime minister, you know, Winston for the Liberal Party because it's just they don't care, not in a negative way, but also branding. | ||
| They're going to see a charismatic, slick, well-dressed, you know, healthy-looking Gavin Newsom, and it's all branding. | ||
| If they turned Kamala Harris into the 50-50 candidate, Gavin Newsom's been around longer for good and for bad. | ||
| But yeah, no, it's branding, it's conditioning, and people will vote for blue, no matter who. | ||
| It's the old expression. | ||
| Well, I mean, because I've been kind of pushing back on the idea that a lot of people in the GOP circles are discussing this with Zoran, for example, in New York. | ||
| They're saying maybe we should just let him win because it could be an example to the rest of the country of how crazy the Democrats are. | ||
| But I'm sitting here thinking, I'm like, I think Zoron, if anything, he just pushes the Overton window within the Democrat Party further to the left and just gives permission for these more moderate people to adopt more radical policies because someone like Zoron can sort of redeem his image quite quickly, especially because he does have a degree of charisma to him. | ||
| I mean, do you think there's any credence to this theory of like, well, maybe you should just let him win to see if it gets bad enough? | ||
| No. | ||
| I mean, I say you fight politically tooth and nail because you give them an inch, they'll start fighting from that point going forward. | ||
| What's amazing, though, even with Zoran is how quickly people who are unfamiliar with his prior statements, they'll never know about them, but how quickly they can rebrand the guy into being something of a more centrist as opposed to the radical that he is. | ||
| Do you follow Keir Starmer on Twitter by any chance? | ||
| I don't follow him, but I see him too much, unfortunately. | ||
| Well, the amazing thing is like Kier Starmer literally overnight, and it's fitting that he's British, like out of 1984, flipped his script. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| He says, now he's anti-immigration, closed borders. | ||
| You got to speak English. | ||
| This is a man who has been the most radical activist supporting multiculturalism invasion of the UK. | ||
| And overnight, he flips the switch where anybody who hadn't been following him from before, that all gets erased. | ||
| Zoran is almost doing the same thing now. | ||
| And it's the danger of these duplicitist, socialist, progressive, ultimately very duplicitous politicians. | ||
| They pretend they didn't say what they said in the past. | ||
| They get into office and then they implement that and then some, much like with the, what was it? | ||
| Defund the police. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| It was like, oh, no, no, nobody's saying that. | ||
| Okay, people are saying that, but it's radical. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Now we accept it. | ||
| And so it's going to be the same thing with Zoran if he gets into office. | ||
| No, I'm not that much of a radical. | ||
| I just want common sense transit ambassadors. | ||
| And then a year later, you are literally living in a 1984, everyone is spying on everybody Orwellian landscape. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Well, I mean, like you said with Kier Starmer, I mean, you know, he's touting the wonders of diversity. | ||
| And he's like, okay, sure, people get stabbed and blown up, but you get kebabs. | ||
| It's fantastic. | ||
| And then he then, all of a sudden, like overnight, he flips and he gives this speech where he calls the UK an island of strangers. | ||
| I mean, it sounded like a page out of an Enoch Powell speech. | ||
| I mean, it was like, whoa, this is crazy. | ||
| And the media over there bought it. | ||
| And, you know, you're starting to see Gavin Newsom adopting somewhat of a similar playbook. | ||
| Gavin is ignoring the fact that, first of all, I don't trust the stats coming out of California, period. | ||
| But the demographic stats in terms of who's leaving California versus who's going to California, you can't falsify those, or at least it's more difficult to. | ||
| Crime stats, if people stop reporting, they stop convicting. | ||
| They can change Asian to caucasian and then jack up one stat versus another. | ||
| But he's an abject failure, a disaster of a governor. | ||
| And, you know, I think they say between the AOCs, who doesn't even have that much of a track record to have been a failure yet versus Gavin Newsom, I can see politically they say, well, we'll take a Gavin Newsom because at least he's got a track record of failure that we will then be able to hammer home. | ||
| But people don't even listen. | ||
| I mean, people are going to go, Gavin's going to go do the podcast. | ||
| He'll go on call her daddy and they won't talk about his failures. | ||
| But he's clearly, he's got the strategy. | ||
| He's adopting it. | ||
| And it's obviously what he wants because he's a power-hungry sociopath. | ||
| And I say that as an armchair psychiatrist. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, I mean, there was a report in the New York Times either this morning or last night that the White House is considering offering gigs to Eric Adams and Curtis Liwa, the GOP candidate, to basically just get him out of the way. | ||
| So that way Andrew Cuomo has a actual shot at dethroning Zoron. | ||
| And Jack Pasovic, he had a speech this morning at NatCon where he was just saying, look, the thing with Zoron, it's one thing just to try and get him out of office, you know, prevent him from holding office, but you're going to have the same problem in four years. | ||
| He's saying, Jack is saying, we need to have a conversation of how are people like Zoron even getting created? | ||
| I mean, the irony is you're going to have either a mass murderer, and I consider Cuomo hyperbolically to have been a mass murderer for what he did during COVID versus an aspiring mass murderer because that's what socialists and communists are. | ||
| These are the two best candidates. | ||
| I don't like Cuomo, period. | ||
| I'd rather see everyone put their weight behind Chris Chris, Eric Adams. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Because I think he's a more, oddly enough, his realignment has been more organic. | ||
| It's not like a flip of the switch like Kier Starmer. | ||
| He's a more reasonable person. | ||
| I would love to see him throw his support to the Republicans. | ||
| And I think there would actually be more. | ||
| I say this, I'm not sure that it's accurate, but because I just can't understand how anybody could support Cuomo, period. | ||
| Literally a man responsible for 10, 15,000 deaths, then weaponize those deaths to try to blame it on Trump. | ||
| The man should be in jail, not back in office. | ||
| So if it's between Zoran and Cuomo, I mean, it's the devil or the devil. | ||
| Eric Adams has gotten reasonable. | ||
| So I think he just needs to either go more independent but align with the right or go full-throated and see what New Yorkers are prepared to tolerate because their options are bleak with those options. | ||
| Eric Adams is funny because he's clearly just a very simple guy, right? | ||
| Like you see these Zoron and Andrew Cuomo, like there's these total ladder climbers, like cutthroat. | ||
| They'll say anything to get elected. | ||
| And then Eric Adams is like every time he gives a speech, it's like he has no idea what he's going to say. | ||
| And then he's just like floating ideas in real time. | ||
| It's actually kind of refreshing to see someone like that because they don't really exist in politics anymore. | ||
| Well, I never liked Eric Adams' plant-based stuff. | ||
| I'm convinced all of that is more unhealthy than a full carnivore diet. | ||
| But with Adams, it was policy. | ||
| He was sort of on the virtue signaling landscape when it came to immigration. | ||
| Diversity is our strength, yada, yada. | ||
| But then the economic realities of the policy sunk in and he appreciated that it's nice to want to do good, but you have to be able to support your own children before you can have more. | ||
| He's come around on his policies and I think he would actually be of the three, obviously the best. | ||
| Who's the guy with the Berette? | ||
| I don't know enough about him, but I do know that I think people are right about, you know, who am I to judge someone for what they look like? | ||
| No, Eric Adams has come around in an organic way. | ||
| And I think he would be the best leader. | ||
| So I don't know how to make it happen. | ||
| But people who are voting for Zoran, they're the same people who were voting for Justin Trudeau in 2015. | ||
| And I voted for Trudeau in 2015, not because I liked anything about him, but first of all, I knew nothing. | ||
| You only are paying attention to 30-second commercials you see on the on TV at the time. | ||
| And if you don't know even what to look for, you're not going to know anything. | ||
| And so they're young, they're idealists, and they see in Zoran a young, newly arrived immigrant, or at least, you know, and then they're going to feel good voting for him, even though they have no idea what policies he's espousing and how it's actually going to destroy New York as anybody knows it now. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, it's interesting that the White House is considering. | ||
| It shows that the White House, this is a different ballgame compared to previous GOP administrations because they're not afraid to go on the offense to address these issues that Americans are concerned about. | ||
| I mean, Americans don't want to see our largest city fall into the hands of an insane kind of third world, third worldist Marxist, like crazy person. | ||
| And with the same regard, there's a story that the Daily Wire actually is reporting this morning where the DOJ is deliberating potentially just outright banning transgender individuals from owning guns. | ||
| I don't know if you've seen this story. | ||
| Well, I was going to, Twitter's a weird place. | ||
| You don't want people thinking you're taking shots at other people. | ||
| No, I knew from that headline that all that the DOJ was contemplating was applying mental illness criteria to the ownership of firearms. | ||
| And they were going back to the traditional definition of gender dysphoria being a mental illness and whether or not it should be one of the mental illnesses that precludes a citizen from owning a firearm. | ||
| I'm following it. | ||
| In as much as there are disqualifying mental illnesses, you don't want psychotic schizophrenics owning firearms with delusions of reality. | ||
| Look, you can understand where the argument goes when it comes to what is, was, and as far as I'm concerned, should always be a diagnosable mental disorder of gender dysphoria. | ||
| The argument people are going to make is they once diagnosed homosexuality as a mental disorder. | ||
| And there's a fundamental difference between homosexuality and transgender dysphoria, which is homosexuality, you are who you are attracted to, someone who's the same sex. | ||
| There's no separation of reality from body. | ||
| Gender dysphoria fundamentally is a mental illness in the sense that someone has a different perspective of what they want to be reality versus what reality actually is. | ||
| And so to compare what might have been at one point diagnosis of mental illness unfairly to that which is objectively a mental illness by any definition of the term, not analogous. | ||
| And so they can set that argument aside. | ||
| The bigger concern is going to be this is one big step towards red flag laws where they're going to say, okay, if you haven't been diagnosed as transgender, but you have certain sexual gender predilections, whatever, someone calls in the authorities, say, hey, that guy's transgender. | ||
| He owns a firearm. | ||
| Or are they going to ask you about your gender ideology on an application? | ||
| It's one thing to go to a doctor, but are they going to say, do you identify as trans? | ||
| Well, those are exactly questions we don't want people asking right now, period. | ||
| So it's a double-edged sword. | ||
| I see where they're going with it. | ||
| Yeah, well, I mean, like someone just crushes the notes of a Michael Jackson song in their car and they just say, oh, he's trans. | ||
| You know, there's something going on. | ||
| And they come after you and take your gun. | ||
| It's the issue we had. | ||
| I mean, even with schizophrenia, with other diagnosable mental illnesses, that people would say, Yeah, you shouldn't own a gun. | ||
| It takes a disgruntled ex-wife or something to say he's an undiagnosed crazy person, go get his guns. | ||
| And then lo and behold, you have like Joe Biden-type FBI raids where people are getting shot. | ||
| But it's interesting. | ||
| The administration definitely is bolder in what they will contemplate as talking points, even if they don't make policy of it. | ||
| I think the underlying issue here is from the military perspective, they said, look, gender dysphoria is a mental illness and it might disqualify from certain types of service. | ||
| Well, you know, I can appreciate where they're going with the extension of this argument, especially in the wake of what we've been seeing now in the States. | ||
| And, you know, to a certain degree also up in Canada, it's just that, you know, when people who identify as trans, whatever, commit crimes, at least in Canada, it tends not to be with guns quite as much. | ||
| But we're having that same problem up in Canada now. | ||
| Yeah, well, you saw yesterday JD Vance visiting, JD Vance and his wife, Usha, visiting the site of the shooting, the pay their respects and that sort of thing. | ||
| And he had a quote that was quite interesting where he talked about how we need to have a national conversation around some of these psychological medications that people are taking. | ||
| I had Naomi Best on the show Thursday, who's a mental health expert, really. | ||
| And she broke down sort of how easy it is to access a lot of these medications and these sorts of things. | ||
| And you kind of wonder if the DOJ maybe should take more of a look at that, because I mean, like you talked about the disassociation that occurs with transgenderism where you're removing sort of your body or you're separating, putting a rift between your body and your mind, your soul, that sort of thing. | ||
| A lot of these psychiatric drugs do something very similar. | ||
| And we see a huge ramp up and prescriptions for these sorts of things. | ||
| Well, the admin is already heading that way. | ||
| RFK coming out and saying, look, you guys want to focus on the guns. | ||
| I think we should talk about the SSRIs. | ||
| It's not an if anybody who I've never taken them, period. | ||
| Full stop because I'm absolutely neurotic about what it might do. | ||
| When I was a kid and I used to suffer from migraines, the doctor said, well, we'll prescribe you a low, what's it called? | ||
| The things that like a type sedative, like an Adam type thing. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| I said, it's for migraine. | ||
| He's like, well, you know, it relaxes you, whatever. | ||
| It's like, I don't want to take anything that tinkers with the brain chemistry. | ||
| These SSRIs, there's a reason why on the side effects, it says, you know, it might increase the risk of suicidal ideations because A, you're messing with brain chemistry. | ||
| And it's one thing to say, like, they know what it does. | ||
| They don't know what it does, but they know it does certain things. | ||
| You're messing with brain chemistry. | ||
| Some people who have depressive thoughts don't act on them because they lack the motivation, for lack of a better word to do it. | ||
| Then they get on these medications and they finally have the motivation to do now what they have wanted to do or have been contemplating doing. | ||
| So, you know, it increases the risk of these in a substantial amount of people. | ||
| And the amount of kids that are jacked up on these things, and I can tell you this from my own experience now with the public schooling system, it's insane. | ||
| And so, true, you know, someone who kills someone with a gun, necessarily, they used a gun. | ||
| But what is causing this issue now? | ||
| What's new versus what's not new? | ||
| Whether or not guns have gotten more sophisticated, guns have always been around and these shootings didn't exist 50 years ago, period. | ||
| SSRIs have not existed for 50 years to the extent that they do now. | ||
| And so you just got to look at where the problem might actually be occurring. | ||
| But the normalization of mental illness in today's society, and not just normalization, but glorification and glamorizing of it. | ||
| We've literally entered the era of idiocracy where you don't treat mental illness, you affirm mental illness. | ||
| And that is exactly how you make it exponentially worse. | ||
| And we're seeing the consequences of it everywhere. | ||
| And in the States, the left wants to go straight to the gun issue. | ||
| You look up in Canada, we've got a number of very, very prominent, outrageous situations where I don't even think the guy in Quebec was bona fide trans, but a man murders his wife and two kids, says he's trans, and then there's a debate as to whether or not he gets to stay in a woman's facility. | ||
| The other story that just happened up in, I don't know if you heard about this, up in Welland, Ontario, a psychotic individual sexually assaults a toddler by breaking into the neighbor's house. | ||
| And on his Facebook page, it says she him. | ||
| And so, you know, I don't think these are bona fide cases of transgenderism. | ||
| I think it's actually psychopaths now exploiting this movement. | ||
| But what we have now is not just a normalization of mental illness, but an absolute glorification of it, where you get people copycatting mental illness because it creates some sort of social protection. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean, you're seeing just, you're just seeing this general, you're seeing this general decline and people just aren't thinking clearly. | ||
| I mean, JD Vance, when he was there laying flowers, is you had a group of, I would say, protesters, I guess is what you, I don't know what you would call these people, just harassing them saying, you know, oh, do something about this, like you're a coward, these sorts of things. | ||
| And you see that and it's horrific and grim because we're talking about children here. | ||
| And from most of the mainstream left, you know, pundit class and even the politicians is there was almost an endorsement, a soft endorsement of holding these politicians accountable. | ||
| And it kind of gets back to our conversation of the direction the Democrat Party is heading in. | ||
| It's like that kind of stuff is not only palatable, but it's like, it's emphasized. | ||
| It's emphasized to sort of behave this way within the Democrat Party. | ||
| Who wouldn't like it? | ||
| I mean, who on the end of what they consider to be the oppressed spectrum of the world would not love this, where victimhood is the currency. | ||
| Normalizing of what would otherwise be things that you'd have to work on and treat and overcome. | ||
| Now you don't have to. | ||
| Now you get to be celebrated for it. | ||
| And from the political perspective, what is easier for a politician to do than basically cater to the whims of the electorate without having to do anything meaningful? | ||
| And watching the RFK hearings this morning, you have this party claiming to support the science when what they're doing is the antithesis of science in every respect. | ||
| But it's not just politically palatable to many. | ||
| It's the easiest way to garner support by just saying, it's okay, you're good. | ||
| And we'll affirm you as opposed to the tough love that good parenting requires. | ||
| Right now you have bad parenting in government, which is bad government, not under the Trump admin, which is the tough parent, but that's been the MO of the Democrat Party for the last as long as I've been politically conscious. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| And I mean, that's a great way to put it. | ||
| And you're seeing this tension in the Democrat Party where the guys that know how to win elections, the strategists are just pulling their hair out saying, okay, we need to moderate. | ||
| We have to moderate. | ||
| This has gone too far. | ||
| But the base of the Democrat Party wants more and more. | ||
| They're saying these guys aren't left-wing enough. | ||
| I mean, I even see people nipping at Zoron's heels saying, oh, you shouldn't concede on like police and that sort of thing. | ||
| And it's like, yeah, you're just seeing this massive rift between strategists and the base. | ||
| You can never placate people who want merit without the work. | ||
| I mean, the more you give, the more they're going to, I don't know if avarice is the word in English. | ||
| It's just going to be greed, rapaciousness. | ||
| Like the more you give those who don't deserve it or who haven't earned it, the more they think they're entitled to it and the more they're going to demand in the future. | ||
| But no, it's, you know, I'd like to say it's gotten bad enough. | ||
| We're sort of reached the pinnacle of the insanity. | ||
| I think when you started promoting not just as normal, but as morally required men and women's sports, I think that's when it started turning for a lot of people. | ||
| But as I say, when you fight corruption, corruption fights back. | ||
| And the very vocal minority that had hitherto been getting their way simply by being a vocal minority, when they stop getting their way, they're going to get more vocal and more radical in their tactics. | ||
| And that, I think, unfortunately is what we're seeing at the political scale, is these radical minorities getting more radical, more vocal, and more violent and more destructive. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I mean, you see this way, the way politics operates because the Anglosphere, I mean, obviously the United States does its own thing. | ||
| They run. | ||
| We're vaguely the same culture, but the United States often bucks trends. | ||
| They're very clear right now. | ||
| We have a very right-wing administration. | ||
| But to a degree, like they do track in certain ways, you do see some commonality. | ||
| And you saw in Canada where with Trudeau, it was just basically as bad as it could get. | ||
| And all it took was just stirring up vibes a little bit, an anti-Pierre vibe, who was clearly the competent choice to get Carney through the door. | ||
| I mean, it's like, I know Canada is obviously not directly compared with the United States, but it's very, there's a lot of similarities. | ||
| And it's like, I could see a situation in the United States where like, yeah, short-term memory, people vote on vibes, and we get a similar situation that you saw in Canada. | ||
| I mean, it could very easily happen. | ||
| No, no, for sure. | ||
| And like, incidentally, in any realm of the universe, when you're talking about the lefty radicals getting more violence, in any other realm of the universe where on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, the dude doesn't miss the shot. | ||
| We're in Kamala Harris, Canada 2.0 on steroids. | ||
| And it is amazing. | ||
| Politically, by the national zeitgeist, Canada is out there with Australia. | ||
| England seems to be pushing back a little bit now, but I think it either is too little, too late, or just not enough right now. | ||
| America has always been the beacon and it's always been the exception, but it's only by an actual miracle that it's where we are now. | ||
| Because in any other realm of the universe, that day turns out differently and history goes down the, I mean, it goes to hell in a handbasket. | ||
| But no, what is crazy is just Canada is the living example of what happens when state-funded media has no meaningful opposition from what we call alternative media. | ||
| People don't really appreciate it. | ||
| Why Pierre Polyev lost that election? | ||
| It's due in large part to his own political cowardice. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But it's due also in large part to the monopoly that legacy media has over the minds, the hearts, the souls via the media up in Canada, state-funded media that amplifies or doesn't what it wants to amplify and ignores or suppresses that which it doesn't even want to give breathing air to. | ||
| And that's basically what they did to Pierre Polyev. | ||
| And he didn't do himself any favors. | ||
| But at least in America, there's a vibrant populist movement. | ||
| There's a vibrant popular, a vibrant populist base and meaningful alternative media that I dare say is, you know, has a broader reach than the legacy media. | ||
| You just don't have that in Canada. | ||
| You don't have that in Australia. | ||
| You don't really have that in the UK. | ||
| And you can see how it's very, very easy to control and manipulate entire swaths of people when you have basically a monopoly on information. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I mean, you hit the nail on the head there. | ||
| Well, Viva, I mean, I imagine the majority of people know where to find you. | ||
| But for those who don't, who want more, where can people find you? | ||
| Well, I made it into a daily mail article because I was mildly critical of the, I was highlighting the Epstein missing minute yesterday. | ||
| I need someone to tell me if the guy in that missing minute was the guy who was one of the two prison guards that was sanctioned over their negligence. | ||
| But either way, I'm on the internet, Viva Fry. | ||
| If you Google it, you'll find me. | ||
| I'm live on Rumble at three o'clock daily. | ||
| That's my time in the time slot. | ||
| Twitter is the VivaFry because there's some Russian dude who had Viva Fry from way back. | ||
| And VivaBarnsLaw.locals.com is our locals community. | ||
| And it's one of the best communities out there. | ||
| So those are all my socials. | ||
| Well, awesome, Mr. Fry. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| We'll see you next time. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Thank you for having me. | ||
| Sir. | ||
| Well, that was Viva Fry, the legendary, Viva Fry. | ||
| So good to have him in there, give his thoughts. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, painting that picture of, you know, where this could go, what avenues the left has to regaining power, that's not a prediction. | ||
| That's certainly a nightmare, obviously. | ||
| But that's to say, is we still are on a razor's edge, right? | ||
| With the Trump administration, so much promising things happening, obviously. | ||
| It is the most right-wing administration, certainly of my lifetime, and people far older than me's lifetimes. | ||
| But it does, I just want to illustrate how quickly, like I said earlier, you can't underestimate the incompetence of the American electorate, right? | ||
| This is a country that almost half voted for Kamala Harris. | ||
| So we still are on a razor's edge. | ||
| We can't take our foot off the gas, especially with the midterms coming up. | ||
| You just can't. | ||
| You can't get complacent. | ||
| You always need to be aware of threats and these sorts of things. | ||
| So that's Rossi. | ||
| So thanks to Viva. | ||
| That was excellent. | ||
| Yeah, with that, I think we'll wrap up here. | ||
| I've been your host, Tate Brown. | ||
| You can find me on X and Instagram at RealTate Brown. | ||
| We'll see if Tate Thursdays becomes a thing. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| It's up in the air. | ||
| We'll see what happens. | ||
| But with that, be here for Timcast IRL tonight at 8 p.m. We have Connor Tomlinson, Tim Poole, be hosting. | ||
| So don't worry. | ||
| Again, it's not a sick thing. | ||
| He's turning to the bench, right? | ||
| He's giving me some PT. | ||
| You know, you love to see it. | ||
| So yeah, we'll be back for Timcast IRL. | ||
| I'll be on as well. | ||
| Connor, the legend, it's going to be a great time. | ||
| So be there. | ||
| We'll see you there. |
