| We got Alad Ilyahu, our very own Alad Ilyahu. | ||
| He is in the studio. | ||
| He will be hanging out today. | ||
| So we'll bring him in a little later because I don't know if you guys have seen. | ||
| He's been all over with his coverage of the situation in the New York courthouse where ICE is literally just like basically XP farming. | ||
| They're hanging out right there. | ||
| They're grabbing the illegals right when they get out of the courthouse. | ||
| So it's been pretty insane to watch these videos. | ||
| It's pretty based, actually, but we're going to bring him in. | ||
| We're going to have a chat with him and really break down the dynamics of what's going on there. | ||
| Besides that, we got some big stories. | ||
| We have President Trump saying he's going to invoke the Insurrection Act if these governors keep holding up the feds from trying to do their jobs. | ||
| Very based. | ||
| We're going to get into that. | ||
| We also had the White House issuing a memo like this morning about the shutdown. | ||
| How, look, the federal workers might not get their back pay if you guys don't come to the negotiating table, if the Democrats don't come to the negotiating table. | ||
| So pretty hilarious, the White House playing hardball. | ||
| We have a few more stories that we'll get to if we have time. | ||
| We have Pope Leo, you know, being very woke. | ||
| I know this is very surprising, the Pope being woke. | ||
| I know I can't believe it either. | ||
| We have a story about a black college president plagiarizing and treating white employees like quote slaves. | ||
| That's Revolver's words, not mine. | ||
| But a very interesting story. | ||
| And we have a few more. | ||
| We'll see if we can get to it if we have time. | ||
| We have a lot. | ||
| We have a lot to talk about. | ||
| But besides that, let's get into our sponsors, our great sponsors. | ||
| First, we have Cass Brew Coffee. | ||
| This is great stuff, guys. | ||

It's sold out. | |
| It's done. | ||
| Yeah, nice try. | ||
| It's been sold out for a while. | ||
| If you're a Timcast fan, you know these things. | ||
| You understand these things. | ||
| But on the bright side, you can still get your Ian's graphene dream. | ||
| Where is it? | ||
| Where is it? | ||
| See, I need to like, I need to have it ready to go. | ||
| Yeah, Ian's graphene dream. | ||
| This is the, I mean, I've spent a week with Ian. | ||
| So I've been working here for a few months now, but I hadn't had like a lot of one-on-one time with Ian until the Arizona trip last week when we were in Phoenix. | ||
| And he really got me up to speed on graphene. | ||
| And, you know, I kind of rolled my eyes at it. | ||
| You know, we had a little blow up on the show where I said, who even cares about graphene? | ||
| And then he filled me in and I'm bought in. | ||
| So I'm going to be stocking up on Ian's Graphene Dream. | ||
| Timcast fans have been stocking up for a while. | ||
| We also have a new blend here, Mary's Ghost Blend. | ||
| Can you believe this? | ||
| Mary Morgan, she's got her own ghost blend. | ||
| I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard it's very, very good. | ||
| So I don't know. | ||
| Maybe you can try it and send me a message. | ||
| Let me know what you think. | ||
| But yeah, head on over to castbrew.com. | ||
| There's a lot of great, great options there. | ||
| And we also have Boonies. | ||
| Boonies HQ. | ||
| This is our in-house skate brand. | ||
| Well, it's in-house. | ||
| It's related to Timcast in a lot of ways. | ||
| This is sick. | ||
| You don't even need to be a skater. | ||
| You could just buy a board to have as ornamentation. | ||
| That's what I'm doing because it's so sick. | ||
| But some great boards here. | ||
| We got the Declaration of Independence. | ||
| Very patriotic board. | ||
| Oh, you know what? | ||
| I'm full screen. | ||
| So you can't even see it. | ||
| One second. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Check that out. | ||
| Bang. | ||
| We have the uncancelable board. | ||
| I don't know if you know the story. | ||
| It was a famous skate brand, these sorts of things. | ||
| And it was canceled because it looks like an Iron Cross. | ||
| That was about 10 years ago. | ||
| And we've brought it back. | ||
| We've brought back the brand. | ||
| We're saying, look, if you want to go to war with cancel culture, don't just tweet about it. | ||
| You know, actually fight back. | ||
| You know, fight with your dollar. | ||
| That's what makes things move is a capital, throwing your capital around. | ||
| I think the Bud Light thing demonstrated that. | ||
| If you grow the great boards, you're be gay, don't be gay. | ||
| It's your choice. | ||
| In general, it could be your choice too. | ||
| Out of the jury's out, I know for sure that it's a choice on boonies. | ||
| So head on over to shop.boonieshq.com. | ||
| A lot of great boards. | ||
| Let's get into that first story. | ||
| It's from the man himself, President Trump. | ||
| This was yesterday afternoon, so we weren't able to get to it on the morning show so we can cover it. | ||
| Just listen here. | ||
| Hear what he has to say. | ||
| This is from Right Angle News Network with the clip off of C-SPAN. | ||
| So take a listen. | ||
| Over a weekend. | ||
|

|
Mr. President, what? | |
| The Insurrection Act? | ||
| Under what conditions are terms with you? | ||
| Well, I'd do it if it was necessary. | ||
| So far, it hasn't been necessary, but we have an insurrection act for a reason. | ||
| If I had to enact it, I'd do that. | ||
| If people were being killed and courts were holding us up, or governors or mayors were holding us up, sure, I do that. | ||
| I mean, I want to make sure that people aren't killed. | ||
| We have to make sure that our cities are safe. | ||
| So, I mean, you can see here, look, he didn't just, some people are freaking out, and they're saying he's invoking it right now. | ||
| Get ready. | ||
| You know, if you're in the military, clean off, you know, get your shoes tied, whatever. | ||
| Not quite what's happening, but yeah, he's saying, look, if these Democrats, if they continue to, if they continue to play these games and prevent the feds from doing what they need to do, then yeah, he'll invoke the Insurrection Act. | ||
| So we have a write-up here from Reuters kind of discussing the degritty. | ||
| So I'll read here. | ||
| It's Reuters, so you're not going to get, you know, it's not going to be the most fair coverage on planet Earth, but they do a decent job here. | ||
| Trump's threat to invoke Insurrection Act escalates showdown with Democrat cities. | ||
| And we'll read here. | ||
| Donald Trump's threat to invoke a federal anti-insurrection law to expand his deployment of military personnel to U.S. cities has intensified the legal battle between the president and Democratic-led cities as hundreds of National Guard troops from Texas on Tuesday prepared to patrol the streets of Chicago. | ||
| Trump told reporters on Monday that he would consider utilizing the Insurrection Act, a law enacted more than two centuries ago to sidestep any court rulings restricting his orders to send guard troops into cities over the objections of local and state officials. | ||
| Quote, we have an insurrection act for a reason. | ||
| If people were being killed and courts were holding us up, or governors or mayors were holding us up, sure, I'd do that. | ||
| That was from President Trump, as you just saw. | ||
| The law, which gives the president authority to deploy the military to quell unrest in an emergency, has typically been used only in extreme cases, as almost always at the invitation of state governors. | ||
| The act was last invoked by President George H.W. Bush during the Los Angeles riots of 1992. | ||
| Using the act would represent a significant escalation of Trump's campaign to deploy the military to the streets of Democratic cities and an extraordinary assertion of presidential power. | ||
| Last week, this was fantastic. | ||
| Last week, in a speech to top two military commanders, Trump suggested using U.S. cities as, quote, training grounds for the armed forces. | ||
| Which, honestly, if you've been to, if you've already just seen the videos of Portland, it's not a bad idea. | ||
| I think it does resemble a kabool in many ways. | ||
| Trump has ordered guard troops sent to Chicago, the third largest U.S. city in Portland, Oregon, following his earlier deployments to Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. in each case. | ||
| He has done so despite staunch opposition from Democratic mayors and governors who say Trump's claims of lawlessness and violence do not reflect reality. | ||
| So then, look, this is what they say here. | ||
| Chicago and Portland protests over Trump's immigration policies have been largely peaceful, while both cities have seen sharp declines in violent crime so far this year. | ||
| So this is like as soon as the spotlight is shown onto the insanity happening in these cities, they start spinning up these talking points of, oh, it's been largely peaceful. | ||
| I mean, I don't know if you've seen the videos out of Portland. | ||
| They beat up Nick Sorter. | ||
| They tried to, they assaulted Nick Sorter this weekend. | ||
| And earlier that week, he had been arrested. | ||
| So the police clearly are not enforcing the peace on these streets. | ||
| And they're, if anything, arresting conservative journalists for like defending themselves. | ||
| And then, yeah, and then he gets assaulted, these sorts of things. | ||
| Far from peaceful. | ||
| If you've seen the videos outside, we had James Klug. | ||
| We had a pre-recorded interview that went up on the Culture War YouTube channel yesterday afternoon. | ||
| He was kind of discussing the situation outside of the federal building in Portland where you just have people just outside protesting almost all hours of the day. | ||
| And it's non-stop. | ||
| And it's like, well, I mean, you see the videos, Nick Shirley's video in Minneapolis, where when the feds come into town to conduct an operation, people start shoving officers and they start throwing stuff. | ||
| They start pelting the vans with rocks and trash and whatnot. | ||
| And these people just feel completely emboldened. | ||
| They feel emboldened by the fact that these local police departments won't do anything about it. | ||
| Because that's kind of what's going on here. | ||
| This is what the tension is, is this is why Trump is having to send these federal agents in is because the local police just aren't doing their jobs. | ||
| They're not protecting these federal agents in these federal buildings. | ||
| And if anything, in Portland, what we saw was when the feds tried to protect the building where they boarded up the windows, they got issued a code violation by the city of Portland. | ||
| So it's like these cities are an open, we discussed it on the show yesterday, but it's worth repeating. | ||
| These cities are in open rebellion against the federal government. | ||
| And so this isn't really, there's all this talk over national divorce, right? | ||
| And, you know, Marjorie Taylor Greene referenced this somewhat recently. | ||
| But that's not really what's going on here. | ||
| This isn't states necessarily going against each other. | ||
| This is a few states questioning the authority or not questioning, subverting the will of the federal government. | ||
| So I don't know if national divorce is really what's going on. | ||
| I think this is more of an institutional crisis, right? | ||
| This is a crisis of legitimacy. | ||
| That's what's going on here. | ||
| And the Portland police just refusing to protect these federal agents in any way. | ||
| Yeah, that's open rebellion against the United States government and the popularly elected President Trump. | ||
| So yeah, sorry. | ||
| Sorry, guys. | ||
| You don't want to play ball National Guards coming in. | ||
| And then when they issue these lawsuits and they gum up the court system to prevent the National Guard from deploying, look, we're going to have to invoke the Insurrection Act. | ||
| I mean, what else is this? | ||
| This is an insurrection. | ||
| This is a state government saying we are no longer subservient to the will of the federal government. | ||
| That's an insurrection. | ||
| That's what that is. | ||
| You are undermining the you're undermining the policy of the federal government, who is simply trying to conduct. | ||
| Remember, this is all over ICE. | ||
| This is what this is all over. | ||
| This is all over, let's see. | ||
| This is all over the sorry, we got producer Surge in the house. | ||
| He just showed me a message. | ||
| We're getting a lot of situations for city ridge. | ||
| But anyway, this is all over ICE. | ||
| This is all over us trying to get illegal immigrants out of the country, which is hilarious. | ||
| I'm just going to show something real quick to you guys. | ||
| This polling here, this is from Harvard via Brian York. | ||
| Deporting immigrants who are here illegally and have committed crimes is, by all accounts, the second most popular issue in the country. | ||
| 78% support. | ||
| 69% of Democrats support this. | ||
| They're in support of this policy. | ||
| And the fourth most popular was closing the border with added security and policies that discourage illegal crossings. | ||
| So the actual policy that Trump's pursuing here is very, it's very popular within the United States. | ||
| This is a very popular, very popular policy. | ||
| And look, ICE is how you get it done. | ||
| This was the thing. | ||
| This is what I knew. | ||
| This is what I anticipated happening: everyone says that they want mass deportations. | ||
| Everyone says that they would like to see illegal criminals deported. | ||
| And beyond that, people say, I would like to see my Medicaid or my healthcare get cheaper. | ||
| I would like to see housing get cheaper. | ||
| I would like to see food costs go down. | ||
| And that comes in tandem with getting people out of the country that are occupying space that shouldn't be in the country that are here illegally. | ||
| But then as soon as ICE starts doing what they have to do, which is sometimes you got to drag someone out of a car, it happens. | ||
| Not everyone's going to self-deport. | ||
| A lot of people have self-deported, and that is not being discussed as much. | ||
| Over a million. | ||
| But yeah, ICE has to get down and dirty sometimes. | ||
| Like it's, it sucks. | ||
| I mean, I don't want to see it. | ||
| I mean, I know like people kind of do a routine where they're like, I voted for this. | ||
| And it is kind of true. | ||
| It is. | ||
| But like, you know, it's not, I mean, it's not optimal. | ||
| Like, I think we would all prefer for them all just to leave overnight, you know, on the next flight out. | ||
| That's certainly preferable. | ||
| But yeah, ICE has to get down and dirty sometimes. | ||
| And I knew, I knew as soon as they started doing this that a lot of people that said they wanted illegals out, that said they wanted cheaper housing, that said they wanted this, they would start to get a little queasy. | ||
| They wouldn't like to see that because we don't have to be mean about it. | ||
| Because people, quite frankly, Americans and broadly Westerners don't have the stomach to do what needs to be done to fix these issues. | ||
| That's just the reality of the situation. | ||
| People say they want one thing, but then as soon as you have to implement the policies and use the institutions, wield the power of the institutions that you have to use to get these, you know, get this across the finish line, people get queasy. | ||
| They get uncomfortable. | ||
| Because people, I think, especially people on the right, just aren't comfortable with winning. | ||
| They don't understand how to win. | ||
| And yeah, like you got to get a little, you got to get a little mean sometimes. | ||
| It's just the reality of the situation. | ||
| So yes, when you see, you know, when you see an ICE, you know, ICE thing like we had right here, this is what we'll talk about later from a lot. | ||
| ICE containing illegals right now, right in the corner. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What country are you from? | |
| Oh, it's okay. | ||
| It's real managers. | ||
| And a lot of these, a lot of these broadcasters, they don't like to see it. | ||
| I should have had the article in the stack. | ||
| See, this is what I mean. | ||
| That's really rookie, whatever. | ||
| But a lot of these broadcasters are flipping out. | ||
| Tim Dylan, kind of rather infamously, he's been railing. | ||
| I like Tim Dylan. | ||
| I like his show a lot. | ||
| I think he's a genius. | ||
| I think he's one of the funniest, if not the funniest comedian in the game right now. | ||
| But he'll spend like the last couple of shows, he'll spend a large amount of time really railing on ICE's operations. | ||
| He's very concerned. | ||
| He's calling it barbaric. | ||
| He's saying this isn't who we are. | ||
| I'm like, what did you, my question is, and it's not even a mean question. | ||
| It's just like, what did you think this was going to look like? | ||
| Did you really think that people who are grizzled criminals or even people that are here illegally, they're already willing to violate the law? | ||
| Do you think they weren't going to leave without a fight? | ||
| Is that what you thought? | ||
| Did you think they were just going to like peacefully self-deport? | ||
| And how do you expect ICE to get these people out? | ||
| You're going to have to put a hand on them. | ||
| I mean, it is what it is. | ||
| This is how law enforcement has always worked. | ||
| Do you think the police department, when they're stopping crime, do you think every interaction is peaceful? | ||
| No, they have to get down and dirty sometimes. | ||
| It's very unfortunate. | ||
| I wish it wasn't that way, but it's just the reality of the situation. | ||
| So yeah, people get very queasy over these things and they, and, you know, it's whatever. | ||
| But yeah, this is how it works. | ||
| This is how ICE has to conduct their affairs. | ||
| So again, really popular. | ||
| It's a really popular policy to deport them all. | ||
| And ICE, like, just do what you got to do, really. | ||
| Sorry, that's that simple. | ||
| But yeah, these people, these demo, these Antifa people, that's what this all started over. | ||
| This all started over ICE conducting affairs. | ||
| So if you ever get a little queasy over ICE, an ICE video, remember that that's who you're up against is these Antifa people. | ||
| Those are the people that really hate ICE as these freaks out in Portland. | ||
| So with that, we'll move on to the next story, right? | ||
| We'll get to the next story. | ||
| This one is really funny. | ||
| This is kind of a quick one. | ||
| This is from Axios Scoop. | ||
| White House memo says furloughed federal workers aren't entitled to back pay. | ||
| So this is really funny. | ||
| This is like kind of, this is a very, very politico article, a really politico situation to happen, but it's so funny. | ||
| I'm really itching my nose a lot right now. | ||
| It's a very, I have a very itchy nose. | ||
| My skin's kind of, I'm not, there's no booger sugar involved. | ||
| Don't worry. | ||
| I'm off the, I'm off the dunkin' ice coffee right now, hence the energy. | ||
| But my nose is very itchy, and I'm very self-conscious that people are going to think that, you know, it's like hashtag Miami Knights or something. | ||
| That's not what's going on. | ||
| I have an itchy nose. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| But we have this article from Axios. | ||
| Furloughed federal workers aren't guaranteed compensation for their forced time off during the government shutdown, according to a draft memo described to Axios by three sources. | ||
| We'll read their write-up here. | ||
| If the White House acts on that legal analysis, it would dramatically escalate President Trump's pressure on Senate Democrats to end the week-old shutdown by denying back pay to as many as 750,000 federal workers after the shutdown. | ||
| Trump wants the Democrats to back a continuing resolution to fund the government with no strings about healthcare subsidies attached. | ||
| Quote, this would not have happened if Democrats voted for the clean CR, a senior administration official said. | ||
| So this is really, this whole government shutdown is really funny. | ||
| A, because no one cares. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| The past government shutdowns, like the, what was it, 2019 where they had the last one near the end of the Trump and first Trump term. | ||
| And it was like a big deal. | ||
| Like everyone was reporting on it. | ||
| Everyone was watching the news. | ||
| There was like so much drama involved. | ||
| Like it was really a big deal. | ||
| I remember this. | ||
| I remember this vividly. | ||
| This government shutdown kind of just snuck up. | ||
| I mean, I know a lot of, I know a lot of admin staffers personally. | ||
| And even they, like, it was the day of they realized that, oh, this can, this can happen. | ||
| Like, no one saw it coming. | ||
| And then it happened and no one really cared. | ||
| Like on Timcast IRL, last week we were in Arizona, the government shut down. | ||
| And that was like the third story of the day. | ||
| Because it's like, there's so much going on. | ||
| Do we really care about a government shutdown? | ||
| And then it's even funnier because this is just a total self-owned from the Democrats because this whole thing was over the healthcare subsidies and the C, the CR. | ||
| And they just really were upset about it. | ||
| It shut the government down. | ||
| And they thought this was like Hakeem Jeffries was really going to get his like big moment here where he's like standing up to resisting fascism or whatever. | ||
| And no one cares. | ||
| No one cares. | ||
| And then Trump, the Trump White House this morning just leaks this memo saying like, hey, by the way, it would be a real shame if that back pay for the federal workers just like went away if that didn't happen. | ||
| So it's just maximum pressure on the Democrats to come to a come to a deal here. | ||
| And it's just so funny, Trump, Trump toying with these, because these Democrats, they're just, they're not used to dealing with master level trolling like we have with the second term Trump admin. | ||
| Maybe this kind of antics would have worked with the first term Trump admin, but second term is just a different, different animal. | ||
| It's just hilarious. | ||
| This is just a really funny move by the Trump admins. | ||
| So, yeah, the Democrats, it's really, they can just end this shutdown whenever they want. | ||
| They just have to like agree that, yeah, illegals can't get, like, they don't have the right to taxpayer, um, taxpayer health care subsidies. | ||
| Like, sorry, that's that's really that's legitimately what this is over. | ||
| That's legitimately what this is over, which is why it's so funny. | ||
| Um, yeah, I don't think the Republicans and the and the Trump administration are really in any hurry to bend over backwards to give the Democrats what they want here. | ||
| Because, um, I mean, there's a lot of there's a lot of commentary that this actually gives the Trump admin a chance to clean house within a lot of these federal agencies and offload a lot of federal workers that probably shouldn't be there. | ||
| So, this is really a whatever situation for the Republicans. | ||
| It's the Democrats that are kind of have the kind of have the pressure here. | ||
| And then, yeah, this is the purpose of why the White House would drop this memo here is to say like, hey, by the way, we could just like also not backpay these workers. | ||
| They'll be pissed at you guys. | ||
| Because right now, the narrative is, I think, the narrative that everyone is accepting is that this is the Democrats doing. | ||
| And it is. | ||
| So, yeah, hilarious. | ||
| So, we'll get to the next story here. | ||
| We'll keep rolling here. | ||
| But that was a really funny, really funny story. | ||
| I showed you this video from a lot who will be in here shortly, about the this is, this is really just kind of adding to the conversation we were having earlier about how people say they want one thing, But they go a different direction as soon as we actually try to implement these policies. | ||
| They get queasy. | ||
| I wanted to highlight this. | ||
| This is kind of epitomizing um, epitomizing what's wrong with uh, what's wrong with the cognitive dissidence of liberals of the Liberal world order that has kind of put us in this mess in the first place. | ||
| So this is a tweet from pope Leo and like I don't want to like sit here and just dunk on the pope all day long because he didn't write these tweets. | ||
| I mean, this dude he, he did have a twitter and he did like he was like vaguely, I think he retweeted something that was vaguely critical of Trump. | ||
| Um, like way back when, I don't know, I don't know what the politics of this guy is. | ||
| He's probably just a normal like liberal, Boomer liberal, if I had to guess he's from Chicago. | ||
| Um, he has, like a Republican brother lives in Florida, apparently I, I don't know. | ||
| I mean, i'm a, i'm a, i'm a Presbyterian, so like I don't even really there's. | ||
| I don't have much stake in the pope beyond, like i'm. | ||
| I would hope that the pope would be conservative, because he kind of informs the politics of a lot of Catholics. | ||
| There are a lot of Catholics um, but he tweeted this again. | ||
| May or may not have been him, who knows, it could just be like some, I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But no one should be forced to flee, nor exploited or mistreated because of their situation as foreigners or people in need. | ||
| Human dignity must always come first. | ||
| Of course he's. | ||
| This is a pot shot at the Trump administration. | ||
| Of course that's what this is. | ||
| I mean, if you remember Pope Francis, the previous pope, where he was like oh, we should be building bridges, not walls um, but then we can see here, everyone's just asking Grok some basic questions. | ||
| Hey Grok, who can live in the Vatican City? | ||
| The Vatican City residency is granted mainly mainly, to those with official roles, like clergy, diplomats, Swiss Guard, and their families living there. | ||
| Citizenship is based on appointment to the Holy See service and typically ends when the role does. | ||
| It is not open to general immigration or birthright. | ||
| Citizenship population is around 800 to 1,000, all Catholic. | ||
| So again, you know, he's sub-tweeting Trump here. | ||
| That's what's going on. | ||
| There's no ambiguity here. | ||
| So, right, he's saying Trump should open the borders and let the dredges of the world just flood under the country. | ||
| That's what he's saying. | ||
| He's just saying, yo, yeah, Biden's immigration policy is consistent with whatever his libtar, Catholic theology is. | ||
| And then, boom, he follows that up. | ||
| These tweets are literally, I picked them out, but he literally tweeted this right after the tweet where he's like guilt-tripping Trump. | ||
| He says, I express my concern about the rise of anti-Semitic hatred in the world, as unfortunately we saw with the terrorist attack in Manchester a few days ago. | ||
| So he literally, like, he literally put a tweet out saying, oh, you know, we should have mass migration. | ||
| Everyone should be allowed in the country. | ||
| This is so sad. | ||
| And then he follows it up with a tweet about the anti-Semitic hatred. | ||
| And who do you think is bringing anti-Semitism to Manchester? | ||
| You think the English? | ||
| Do you think it's the native English? | ||
| Well, if you saw the perpetrator of the terrorist attack in Manchester, his name was literally Jihad. | ||
| I'm not making this up. | ||
| I should have put this in the stack. | ||
| His name was Jihad. | ||
| So like for starters, if you're concerned about anti-Semitic hatred, you should probably start with just not letting people into the country named Jihad. | ||
| But in general, this prescription right here with no one should be forced to flee, no one should be mistreated as a foreigner, that leads to this. | ||
| That leads to anti-Semitic hatred. | ||
| That leads to terrorist attacks in Manchester because it looks like a bazaar. | ||
| Have you been to the UK? | ||
| I've been to the UK quite recently. | ||
| You go to these cities there. | ||
| It looks like a total bazaar. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| They're doing call out of prayers left and right. | ||
| I mean, it's looking like Dearborn over there. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| So it gets worse. | ||
| This was from Captive Dreamer. | ||
| Malad's a big fan of his. | ||
| The Pope is promoting anti-Western policies of mass third world migration. | ||
| Let's stop mincing our words here. | ||
| He's an enemy of the West and our people. | ||
| It's pretty poignant language, but when you read the, this is from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. | ||
| This is a direct quote from the website. | ||
| Pope Leo called for a new form of missionary cooperation that taps into lively faiths of many migrants and refugees. | ||
| Quote, in the communities of ancient Christian traditions, such as those of the West, he said, the presence of many brothers and sisters from the world's south should be welcomed as opportunity through an exchange that renews the face of the church and sustains a Christianity that is more open, more alive, and more dynamic. | ||
| Oh man, this is so great. | ||
| This is so exciting. | ||
| All these migrants that are coming here, it's actually an opportunity to renew the face of the church and sustain Christianity. | ||
| Unfortunately, that results in this. | ||
| Unfortunately, all that actually results in is you just having to put tweets out like this non-stop, like constantly, constantly condemning anti-Semitic terrorist attacks. | ||
| That's the result. | ||
| Terrorist attacks, broadly speaking. | ||
| That's the result of the renewing the face of the church or whatever. | ||
| Just really just sinister, sinister stuff here. | ||
| And this is the problem. | ||
| This is at every institution, and this is not me picking on the Catholic Church. | ||
| They're one of many institutions across the West. | ||
| And don't get me wrong, this is Protestant churches too. | ||
| This is the Episcopals. | ||
| This is the Presbyterian Church, PCUSA. | ||
| A lot of these institutions have just been completely corrupted by, in some cases, leftism. | ||
| Like, okay, the Episcopal Church is full-blown leftist. | ||
| But like with the Catholic Church, with a lot of these institutions, it's just like just like gay, liberal, like gay, gayatry. | ||
| Like it's just gay. | ||
| That's the only way to really put it. | ||
| Like I can't assign any like fancy adjectives. | ||
| It's just gay. | ||
| That's all it really is. | ||
| That's all there's really going on here. | ||
| Like, this isn't hardcore leftism, renewing the face of the church and sustaining. | ||
| It's just, it's just gay. | ||
| That's like, that's all it is. | ||
| It's just, it just sucks. | ||
| I don't have much more complex adjectives to put, you know, to assign to it. | ||
| But anyway, we had a few more stories here, but I'll wrap up this soft. | ||
| Yeah, Serge says soft. | ||
| It's just soft. | ||
| It's soft as Charmin. | ||
| It's just not what we need right now. | ||
| You know, the Pope used to call for Crusades. | ||
| Do you guys know this? | ||
| We used to live in a proper Christendom. | ||
| The Pope used to call for Crusades. | ||
| He used to just say, like, hey, you know, the whole Middle East should just be Christian. | ||
| You know, we should just go over there. | ||
| Like, we should, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, like, we should just, like, that should be ours. | ||
| You know, the holy sites, these sorts of things. | ||
| That should just be ours. | ||
| You know, the Pope used to say these sorts of things. | ||
| And now he's like, we should bring all those people here and like flood Europe with migrants and like just hope for the best and hope it doesn't result in me having to tweet more condemnations of terrorist attacks. | ||
| But that's all this results in. | ||
| The Pope is just, it just sucks. | ||
| And that's every institution. | ||
| It just, it's bad, man. | ||
| It's just bad. | ||
| This crap needs to end. | ||
| I had a few articles here. | ||
| I mean, like going further on the H-1B situation. | ||
| We can discuss tomorrow. | ||
| I'll bring it up tomorrow. | ||
| But we have like FedEx. | ||
| They got taken over. | ||
| Their new CEO is an Indian guy. | ||
| And then the entire E-Suite got replaced with Indian. | ||
| So now the entire E-Suite has just like Indian people. | ||
| And it's, you know, whatever. | ||
| But the problem is they like hire along ethnic lines. | ||
| So now you have all these H-1Bs and the entire city of Memphis is being, the suburbs are being changed. | ||
| They're becoming very Indian because of this takeover. | ||
| So it's, I mean, I'm picking on the Catholic Church, but it's like even the place like FedEx, like they just ship stuff all day. | ||
| And even they are promoting this migration. | ||
| They're promoting this, this, I'll use the words from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, renewal of the face. | ||
| They want to renew the face of America. | ||
| And that just looks like, unfortunately, third world chain migration. | ||
| So with that, I'll let Serge cook here. | ||
| I don't know, Serge, what do we have to do here? | ||
| We have, this is the first, this is a, this is a first, I want to emphasize, this is a first in the history of the morning noon live show. | ||
| We have an in-person interview. | ||
| This is really amazing. | ||
| We have our very own Alad Iliyahu. | ||
| He is here. | ||
| Alad, how are you doing? | ||
| I'm doing well. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Afternoon now? | ||
| Good afternoon, everybody. | ||
| Thanks for tuning into the afternoon live show. | ||
| It's an honor to break the glass ceiling of being the first. | ||
| You are the first live guest here. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So the reason I wanted to bring you in, we have these insane videos you've been posting. | ||
| So this is, I'll play the videos. | ||
| I'll play a few of these first, and then we can like break these down further. | ||
| So this was from you. | ||
| Masked ICE agents grab onto and detain illegal immigrant as she leaves an immigration court. | ||
| So I can just play this video here, a little bit of the video. | ||
| And these are ICE agents flanking here with the masks, presumably. | ||
| Yes, that's what's going on. | ||
| We have that. | ||
| had another one here uh this is i don't speak spanish but i think they're saying let go of the girl this is when a family is resisting | ||
| um Understanding of what's going on here a little bit. | ||
| So first and foremost, my. | ||
| are also a ton of activists there and photographers acting as activists trying to dox these agents. | ||
| So, it's very tense scenes outside of these courts. | ||
| It's relatively few people actually being detained there. | ||
| Despite that, we still get these very dramatic scenes, and they're happening Mostly in courts in California and courts here in New York City where the immigration courts have the most traffic. | ||
| Critics of this would say that, you know, this will discourage people from showing up to their court hearings if they know or think that they will ultimately be detained as a result of going. | ||
| So things are getting a bit tense. | ||
| These are dramatic scenes. | ||
| this is the trump administration fulfilling the promise of trying to get to these high i just shot a lot at you No, yeah, there's a lot. | ||
| So I guess my first question would be: how often are we seeing Democrat activists come in here, impose their will, try to cause a scene? | ||
| So let's scroll through a few more videos, actually, because in some other videos, you'll actually be able to see the so-called, okay, there's a few different groups of people here. | ||
| First, so-called court observers. | ||
| These are people who have the legal right to observe courts and sit in the courts and see what's going on. | ||
| But oftentimes, these are masked agitators who protest outside of the building and then just end up coming in. | ||
| They're there to try to obstruct and get in the way. | ||
| There's usually like six to 20, depending on the courtroom. | ||
| But the activists aren't able to do much while literally in the building because they will be arrested. | ||
| I want to see every week or every other week, you'll see Brad Lander or Dan Goldman. | ||
| Brad Lander is the New York City Comptroller. | ||
| Dan Goldman is the congressman of this district. | ||
| Jamani Williams is, I think he's the public advocate. | ||
| And you see these guys coming here frequently and trying to access the 10th floor. | ||
| These arrests are happening on the 12th floor. | ||
| And the processing facility is on the 10th floor. | ||
| Many Democrats criticize the alleged conditions that are being, that the people are being held in there. | ||
| So every other week, you are seeing protests of some sort, whether inside or visits from politicians inside, or just a complete mess of a scene from photographers and so-called court observers or activists and other names. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, because, so, I mean, you're obviously there. | ||
| How thick is at least 10 to 20. | ||
| If you want to scroll up to, uh, well, if you, if you go up or down, you could really tell that there's five to twenty of these very partisan journalists who are constantly trying to be extremely sympathetic to these people while they're being detained. | ||
| And I will say, I mean, these are extremely dramatic scenes of people being grabbed, and it's almost always unbeknownst to them. | ||
| They're not prepared for the situation going in. | ||
| Also, you know, many people on the left say of the President Trump administration's immigration policy that cruelty is the point. | ||
| Most of the people who show up to their court proceedings aren't being taken away, but in the hallways, you'll see dozens of these cops kind of standing over people waiting outside of the courtrooms as they're going from courtroom to courtroom. | ||
| So people are also saying there's an intimidation factor at play here. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Do you think? | ||
| Yeah, I mean, this, this kind of reminds me. | ||
| I think the sorry, I was looking at chat. | ||
| They were saying that they were saying apparently audio was, there was an audio issue on the split screen. | ||
| Yeah, sorry, guys. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I only showed up here halfway through the beginning of the show. | |
| So you didn't hear me or the video. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's my fault. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| No, I think we're good. | ||
| I mean, look, we still have 20 minutes, 20-something minutes. | ||
| Can I just repeat everything I said? | ||
| Yeah, we definitely hit on it. | ||
| I mean, so, I mean, like, I guess you could walk again through like the logistics of specifically how these agents ended up in these courthouses in the first place. | ||
| If there's no audio, let's just, let's just rewind and do the whole thing. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| I mean, was that the okay? | ||
| So let's go through the whole thing again. | ||
| There's a nice pitch I had there. | ||
| It was a nice elevator pitch. | ||
| Okay, so my name is Alad Eliyahu. | ||
| I'm a White House correspondent here at Timcast. | ||
| My off time, I cover immigration and the Trump administration's new immigration initiatives and how they play out around the country. | ||
| So they've recently been trying to obviously up their numbers and the President Trump administration. | ||
| Are we Gucci? | ||
| So part of the new initiatives of trying to increase their numbers have been DHS and ICE agents going to different immigration courthouses around the country, mainly in New York City and California is where they have the highest numbers. | ||
| And they are waiting outside of courtrooms of court proceedings for illegal immigrants. | ||
| And oftentimes they are taking them before their proceedings have fully finished because they are eligible for so-called expedited removals. | ||
| So the administration and DHS is prioritizing those who came here in the past two years or those who have a criminal record. | ||
| And then after their court hearings, they are grabbing them. | ||
| And then you'll see many of these dramatic scenes outside of the courtrooms going on. | ||
| And despite these very dramatic scenes that I film while at these courthouses, only five to 10 illegal immigrants are being detained per day at these different courthouses. | ||
| So you're seeing that. | ||
| And actually this video, why is this important right now? | ||
| This is making national news because this video in particular is of a man who was actually separated from his wife who chose to resist arrest with him and his family. | ||
| So they all chose to grab each other. | ||
| The agents were forced to forcibly remove them from one another. | ||
| And then if we want to scroll down to the next clip, DHS agents, you know, while being physically agitated by the woman also who is an illegal immigrant, who was frustrated with her husband being taken away, this DHS agent reacted to him being grabbed and shoved this woman to the ground. | ||
| This got a lot of pushback initially. | ||
| I believe the spokesperson for DHS, I believe her name is Tricia McLaughlin. | ||
| I'm sorry if I'm butchering that. | ||
| She said something along the lines of this being unbecoming of ICE agents. | ||
| Despite that, he is actually back on duty. | ||
| So 26 Federal Plaza, where these ICE agents are hanging outside of these immigration courts and doing these arrests, has increasingly become a flashpoint. | ||
| Democrats and activists are often going there to protest what they see as poor treatment of people going through the court process, poor treatment of people in the processing facility on another floor where they take them to prepare them to be taken to a detention facility to ultimately be deported from. | ||
| And so that's why, you know, we're seeing a lot more of these scenes out of these courtrooms. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, so from my perspective, I was going through it earlier. | ||
| I was showing some of the polling as how deporting illegal immigrants and illegal criminals is extremely popular, even with Democrats. | ||
| This is a very popular position. | ||
| So going into going into the election, you had the bro casters, I think is what you would call them. | ||
| That's like your Rogans, your Tim Dillons, your Theo Vaughns. | ||
| You know, they were behind Trump. | ||
| They were supporting Trump, these sorts of things. | ||
| And then as soon as videos like this started coming out, and a lot of them were your videos, everyone just soured really quickly. | ||
| And they were like, oh, but this is so mean. | ||
| These sorts of things. | ||
| I mean, how else is ICE? | ||
| From my perspective, I'm sitting here. | ||
| I'm like, how else is ICE supposed to conduct these operations, especially when they're not getting any support from these blue state and blue city governments? | ||
| Totally. | ||
| And there's a few things at play here. | ||
| So these are some of the more dramatic scenes. | ||
| Most of the detainments and arrests don't look like this. | ||
| If we wanted to scroll through some of the others, most of them don't look like this. | ||
| But it's the power of video. | ||
| It's very potent, the power of capturing live arrests. | ||
| We could be sympathetic to criminals if we see, you know, how they're treated after they're arrested. | ||
| So this is ultimately, I think, the safest and most reasonable way to go about it oftentimes, because if they've said, I believe Todd Lyons has said that if they're not going to get them at these courthouses, or I believe it wasn't Todd Lyons, it was the Border Czar Tom Homan, who said that if they're not going to get them at the courthouses in an orderly way, they're going to be forced to go into the neighborhoods. | ||
| If they're not able to go after them in the jails, then they're going to have to be going through the neighborhoods and then really break neighborhood trust with law enforcement, which would lead to a more detrimental situation. | ||
| Has, I mean, you've been covering this for a while now. | ||
| Had things ramped up after the Big Beautiful bill is passing? | ||
| I mean, have we seen a thicker presence of federal agents? | ||
| So the number of agents there, frankly, actually hasn't increased since the passing of the Big Beautiful bill. | ||
| The number of detainments at these immigration courts has actually gone down since the President Trump administration has began. | ||
| And this is because as they began taking more and more people out from these courthouses, more people have been suing and they're caught up in a lot of litigation. | ||
| Also, there's issues with people with the processing facility allegedly not having enough room to house all the people that they were being detaining. | ||
| So between that and a couple of other factors, they've definitely been decreasing the numbers of daily detainments, at least outside of the courthouses that I've witnessed. | ||
| Is it evident? | ||
| Because I love ICE. | ||
| I'm a big ICE backer. | ||
| There's no question about it. | ||
| But there is something to be said of they've had an influx of agents, a lot of them not coming from law enforcement backgrounds in some cases. | ||
| So there's been accusations that some of these arrests have been sloppy. | ||
| I mean, obviously the guy like hit sticking the lady was dramatic. | ||
| And, you know, a lot of people are saying, okay, maybe, I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's neither here nor there. | ||
| Have you seen, do these ICE agents feel, do you see a lot of sloppiness in a lot of instances? | ||
| I'm surprised at the lack of sloppiness. | ||
| The person who has actually shoved the woman to the ground was a supervisor and was hired way before any of these recent Big Beautiful bill or the signing bonus or what have you. | ||
| That guy wasn't getting in any of that. | ||
| This gentleman in the plaid shirt, who's now back on duty. | ||
| No, no, the new guys have been surprisingly orderly. | ||
| All of the photographers are desperate to try to catch a story to try to slander ICE. | ||
| All the photographers there are trying to catch the most dramatic moments and whatnot. | ||
| And I mean, these scenes do look very dramatic, but no, by and large part, things are extremely orderly. | ||
| They're not beating up or I don't know. | ||
| They're not hanging. | ||
| They're not killing. | ||
| They're not assaulting any of the people who are there detaining. | ||
| If you leave in an orderly way, they'll escort you gently, frankly, in my estimation. | ||
| If you go scroll down a little bit more, most arrests, if you could keep going, those are some of the protests outside. | ||
| This is the very dramatic arrest, but most of the arrests are actually extremely orderly. | ||
| Keep going. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Go like three or so post down, if you could, please. | |
| Like many look like that one. | ||
| Something like this. | ||
| So the guy will ask for his court papers. | ||
| The agent will have a packet in his hand where it actually has all the information of the illegal migrant. | ||
| They'll make sure it's the correct person, and then they'll just orderly escort them down the hall. | ||
| Sometimes I'll try to ask them what country they're from. | ||
| They usually don't tell me which, either because they're embarrassed or don't speak English in such cases. | ||
| So yeah, but there's been a lot of concernation from the left over this because, again, they think this discourages people from showing up to court. | ||
| They're uneasy with these agents being masked. | ||
| I believe Tim was also uneasy with these agents being masked. | ||
| Some agents also used to obscure their ICE badges until like the last moment, which could be a concern for some people. | ||
| But I believe this is actually, by and large, part the most orderly way to go about this. | ||
| Here's another example that I'm talking about. | ||
| This really demonstrates what's going on there. | ||
| These are hallways around courtrooms. | ||
| Most of the people who go to their court hearings aren't being detained, but there is this sense of, you know, this illegal migrant, illegal migrant woman with their presumably American child walking down these hallways with ICE agents just lining the halls. | ||
| And it's sort of intimate, like masked agents. | ||
| And there is a sort of unease. | ||
| I will say, I don't, I talked to Todd Lyons about this, the acting director of ICE. | ||
| He said, you know, he doesn't like it, but he doesn't want to encourage, you know, things that could promote violence against his agents. | ||
| And I understand that, but these guys are all armed and you're getting a nice signing bonus. | ||
| And this isn't an easy job, but it's an important job. | ||
| And I don't want people in law enforcement to get attacked, but I think there is this uneasiness of not being able to, you know, identify. | ||
| I don't want people masked up. | ||
| I didn't like it when Antifa masked up. | ||
| I don't like it when the left masks up. | ||
| And I understand that the consequences will be some of these ICE agents getting doxed. | ||
| But guess what? | ||
| There are also just a handful of ICE agents who don't wear the masks and have dealt with the consequences and they've been fine. | ||
| So for example, this short little girl, Serge, in the video before this, that one. | ||
| Yeah, you see this short little woman. | ||
| She's not wearing a mask. | ||
| If you want to scroll through the beginning of this, yeah, that she that woman is, I believe, also a supervisor. | ||
| She's not wearing a mask. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And then the guy who shoved the other lady, you know, he wasn't wearing a mask ultimately. | ||
| And I think you lose trust. | ||
| And it's very bad optically. | ||
| Yeah, well, I mean, I understand the need to protect our agents, but look, you're strapped in New York City. | ||
| Nobody in New York City is allowed to have a gun. | ||
| All of these guys are still armed. | ||
| Well, I think the problem is like, look, we're trying to, we need mass deportations. | ||
| There's tens of millions, upwards of 30, 40 million people to some estimates of legal immigrants in the country. | ||
| And it's like, I'm not so concerned about the trust of the institutions. | ||
| I just need them to conduct their job as efficiently as possible. | ||
| And if they're getting docks and there's people showing up to their houses and giving them a hard time, that impedes the operation, the mass deportation operation. | ||
| So it's like, I'm willing in the short term to make people feel a little uneasy if what we're trying to do is get millions and millions of legal immigrants on. | ||
| I'm okay with them doing these sorts of things. | ||
| And it's like, if you don't want a mask, that's great. | ||
| If you want the smoke, but it's like, look, I don't need these guys to be thought leaders. | ||
| I don't need these guys to be brave and putting their face out there. | ||
| I need them to get the job done, right? | ||
| I need them to get illegals out of the country. | ||
| So I mean, I don't need to test them. | ||
| I don't need them to be, like I said, I don't need them to be thought leaders. | ||
| I just need them to, and I don't care if, I don't, I really don't care if it makes people feel uneasy. | ||
| If you're here illegally, you should feel uneasy no matter what, because you're here illegally. | ||
| You're breaking the law. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| I ultimately think it's counterproductive, though, because if it's DHS and ICE agents' goal to try to deport as many people possible, then they need to stay popular and writ large among the populace and politicians while they do so, or they won't be able to fulfill that goal. | ||
| So I think this is a small, I don't, I don't think, I think most ICE agents would be fine if they were unmasked. | ||
| As I said, there are already a handful of agents who chose not to wear the mask. | ||
| I've spoken to agents both who do and don't wear masks. | ||
| And one person told me, you know, he'd be popular if I got, I'd be popular if I got doxed in my neighborhood. | ||
| Like they all appreciate agents there. | ||
| But I do think that it does give people an easy way to sort of slander them. | ||
| If you're not proud of your work, why are you wearing like if you're proud of your work, why are you hiding your face? | ||
| I think all the arguments that people use against Antifa and the far left hiding their faces really does also apply here for law enforcement. | ||
| Well, I think at this point, to your first point about keeping popularity up, keeping a public opinion of ICE popular. | ||
| I think at this point, everyone that has an opinion on ICE has, you know, they've come to a conclusion whether they like them or not. | ||
| I don't think there's anybody that's on the fence about ICE. | ||
| So I don't really know if there's much more that ICE could do to really win over new supporters, I guess. | ||
| No, I will say no. | ||
| I mean, I think they could lose supporters over this. | ||
| I think there's a percent of people, maybe small, maybe in the teens, maybe in the 10 to 20% of people who support law enforcement, but do genuinely feel uncomfortable with masked law enforcement doing their job. | ||
| And I'll give you an example. | ||
| Our boss, Tim Poole, he feels very uncomfortable. | ||
| He said before on the show, I don't know if he'll change his mind, he changes his mind often. | ||
| But he said, like, no, this is bullshit. | ||
| And the ICE agents shouldn't wear these masks. | ||
| And, you know, they really do look like a form of secret police in some way. | ||
| I totally support their, you know, what they're trying to do. | ||
| And they're just enforcing the law. | ||
| They don't, they don't write the law. | ||
| And I think it's ultimately hurting their cause. | ||
| The masks, like some of these videos, they here's the thing too. | ||
| As some on the left have said, I don't know if we caught it in the second part of the audio or what have you. | ||
| Some people say that the intimidation is part of what they're trying to do. | ||
| Part of the like factoring in the cruelty is the point, I think is what the liberals and the left say says about this. | ||
| So if that is true, then the masks are actually playing into that. | ||
| But I think ultimately we saw with, and you know, it's unfortunate this is the environment we're in, but we've seen that the left is willing to use violence as a means to shut people up and to impede on their opponents' goals. | ||
| And so I'm looking, I guess I will go back to my first point, which is my goal ultimately is to get as many illegal immigrants out of the country. | ||
| And as if this causes them to lose, you know, 10, 20% of the country support-wise, I think that's worth it because the alternative is, I mean, you don't know what could happen to these guys or their families. | ||
| I mean, we just can't put it past. | ||
| We're seeing coordination. | ||
| I mean, like with the Charlie Kirk murder, there's now like, you know, a lot of people speculating there was coordination. | ||
| Who knows what these black block operations in New York and Chicago and in Portland. | ||
| I mean, they probably have a list of these guys and their families and these sorts of things. | ||
| And it's like, whatever these guys can do to insulate themselves from violence, vigilante violence, I think is worth it because ultimately, I mean, they've had trouble. | ||
| They've had some difficulties hiring in certain places. | ||
| And I want to maintain as many agents as possible. | ||
| And I don't want to see these guys getting, you know, getting roughed up by these leftist activists. | ||
| I think they're roughed up would be in reverse. | ||
| But it's well, you know, I mean, like we saw with Kirk and we've seen with others is they're willing to go there. | ||
| They're willing to harm these guys. | ||
| And ultimately, I just don't see why they need to unmask for public. | ||
| They're already these people that would be uneasy with ICE agents being masked. | ||
| They're going to be uneasy with them anyway because they're doing something they don't support, which is their. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| I will say that people who make the argument that ICE agents shouldn't be wearing masks are almost exactly the same people who don't care about the far left and black bloc and Antifa wearing masks and using that as a way to protect their identities while committing crimes. | ||
| So there's probably a narrow group of people that just don't want masks across the board, whether it be Antifa or I think there's like a libertarian leaning type who's like anti-law enforcement, writ large, anti-authority figure, writ large, who feels that way. | ||
| I will say though, after the dramatic video of the gentleman shoving the woman to the ground, which went viral and many Democrats, congresspeople ended up commenting on, that guy was put on leave, ultimately brought back. | ||
| But I spoke to some of the agents around that gentleman and after the fact of that video going out, and he told me there were efforts to dox all of them. | ||
| Yeah, all of the guys in the video. | ||
| And I said, obviously, like, of course, and that's unfortunate. | ||
| And, you know, you guys are masked up. | ||
| But like there are consequences that kind of come with the job. | ||
| I'm not saying that a consequence should be getting doxxed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, I think the government should protect their agents. | ||
| Should regular police wear masks too? | ||
| Because some people will threaten to dox. | ||
| But they're not conducting as abrasive of an operation as mass deportations. | ||
| Like the police have, they're doing the same thing they've done for hundreds of years versus what ICE is doing is actually unfortunately is unprecedented, which is mass deportations. | ||
| That hasn't been done since like Eisenhower and this, at least in the scale that the Trump administration is envisioning. | ||
| And so, yeah, I mean, they are conducting an operation that is much more abrasive. | ||
| There's a large proportion of the country that really just wants to kill them. | ||
| And so it's like, I'm sitting here like, yeah, I mean, I think this is, at least in the short term, the solution until Tim made a good point, which is he just doesn't like that there's an environment in which federal agents have to mask for their lives. | ||
| Like that just shows you that the country is in a position that is just untenable, which is that they have to mask for their lives. | ||
| Like, well, frankly, you should be able to crack down these people preemptively. | ||
| Anybody advocating for violence against ICE agents, I mean, should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. | ||
| So, that's why I ultimately think, you know, it would be dumb of somebody to try. | ||
| And if they do, then we have law enforcement answers to that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Do you think cruelty is part of the point, so-called here? | ||
| No. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| I mean, that just doesn't really track with what they're trying to do. | ||
| I mean, the cruelty is typically because of them fighting back. | ||
| That's when, or cruelty, when it looks cruel. | ||
| That's what every arrest gets physical. | ||
| People resist looks like. | ||
| Yeah, this is what the arrest will look like. | ||
| When it gets physical, then they have to get physical in return. | ||
| And then that's when the clips just look ugly of them like hit sticking someone. | ||
| It's like, well, I mean, that's what you have to do. | ||
| I don't think these ICE agents really want to be going out and just, you know, hit sticking random illegals. | ||
| Like, that's, that's not, especially if they're masking. | ||
| They're already concerned about, you know, their getting doxxed. | ||
| Why would they make it worse for themselves? | ||
| And like you were saying, that's why I asked the question earlier where I was like, I mean, are these guys sloppy? | ||
| And you're saying, no. | ||
| I mean, because that's what I've seen. | ||
| These guys seem to actually be really professional, especially in their new hires. | ||
| And they're, and I think part of that is because they know they know the pressure. | ||
| They know that there's a lot of eyeballs on them. | ||
| And these have a million cameras on them. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| People hoping they're about to make a mistake so they can like take a picture and sell it to the New York Times. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| I think frankly, they've been very orderly and coached very well, it seems. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I think these guys are patriots. | ||
| They just want to, they want mass deportations and they know that being on their best behavior and whatnot is how you conduct that. | ||
| One more bring one fascinating tidbit. | ||
| All right, let's roll this clip back if we can, Serge. | ||
| So I had this go viral on Instagram. | ||
| Yeah, this clip got 15 some odd million views. | ||
| And I was reading through the comments. | ||
| Very funny. | ||
| Somebody pointed out to me, it's like, yeah, this man's being detained by a little Hispanic woman, an Asian guy on the right, this fat black guy in front of us, and then a white guy. | ||
| So it's a very diverse group of ICE agents who are detaining and taking this man. | ||
| It's like a community college pamphlet is arresting you. | ||
| It's the black guy, the Asian guy, the little Hispanic woman, the tall, fat white guy, the back right. | ||
| So this is a very multicultural group of ICE agents who are enforcing our immigration laws outside of these courts. | ||
| I think that's a fascinating aspect because usually these people would be accused of being racist or self-loathing, minority racists. | ||
| I mean, that must suck if you're like on the left. | ||
| It's like when the melting pot begins to hate. | ||
| The melting pot has now come full circle and now they're our guys. | ||
| There are a lot of very large, intimidating black ICE agents at this immigration courts. | ||
| They hire big dudes. | ||
| I kind of want the brothers on the front line. | ||
| Yeah, there are a lot of and there are a lot of young guns too who like grab a guy and run away and I'll barely be able to catch him on video because it's like a young 23, 24, 25 year old who's just excited to be there. | ||
| And that's what excited to be on the job. | ||
| I'm sure ICE, I'm sure they're listening. | ||
| I'm sure they've done this. | ||
| They should really be scouting like the mid-major college football programs for linebackers because these guys aren't going to make the NFL. | ||
| And then, you know, I don't know what their job prospects look like. | ||
| I think they could be really useful for ICE. | ||
| I mean, they're quick, agile, can lay a leg if they need to, if things get physical. | ||
| I think if you're out there and you're with an ICE hiring, I would consider tabling at these mid-major schools. | ||
| There's a lot of downtime at the courts here. | ||
| I'm usually staking out for at least an hour or so to get an arrest. | ||
| And so are these ICE agents. | ||
| So these guys are just chilling and they're regular dudes. | ||
| They're really bros, bros. | ||
| They're cracking jokes to one another. | ||
| They're laughing and palling around. | ||
| So I know you only see them in the context of them grabbing somebody. | ||
| But then on the off hours, we're just kicking back, cracking jokes to one another, having a chill time. | ||
| These are just regular dudes. | ||
| And a lot of them are viewers of Timcast. | ||
| So they've been a lot of very chill dudes. | ||
| All of them follow my work, and I like to think they think I do a great job. | ||
| And it's cool because I'll post something and they'll be like, oh, funny video you posted to me last night. | ||
| That's great, dude. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| I have one more because we can go over because we lost like five minutes. | ||
| I just had like one more kind of, I don't know, your thoughts on it because you've seen this because a lot of people are interacting with your tweets. | ||
| I'm very frustrated. | ||
| I brought it up earlier where you have. | ||
| this segment of the country who got behind Trump. | ||
| A lot of these people are public figures who got behind Trump for other reasons, even though Trump's biggest issue was immigration. | ||
| He made that very clear and it always has been. | ||
| And then now that these ice rates are conducting, they get very uncomfortable. | ||
| They start freaking out seeing these videos. | ||
| And I'm sitting here like, who did you think you were voting for? | ||
| Like, this is like his thing. | ||
| This is why I voted for him. | ||
| What has your reaction been? | ||
| Are you seeing a lot of these guys that are kind of in the middle, supposedly, that are flaking because of these videos? | ||
| I mean, I think it's easy to support something in principle and then like in the real world, caught on camera in its most dramatic effect and like in its worst case scenarios are harder. | ||
| It's a harder pill for certain people to swallow. | ||
| Most policy, when it's enacted, like you don't really see much of it. | ||
| But this, it's really eye-capturing. | ||
| I think it was inevitable that he was going to lose some people. | ||
| And I also think it was a really, it's important to notice that there's a sliding scale for how much people and what type of deportations people in our country support. | ||
| So for example, I think people, it's like a majority position for people to support people, DHS detaining and deporting people who got here in the past two years or have criminal records. | ||
| But then I think you find decreasing support when you find, oh, what if the person had a family here? | ||
| What if they have a child here? | ||
| Then you start seeing support go down. | ||
| And then, oh, what if it's a person who's been here for 20 years? | ||
| Even if they don't have papers, a lot of Americans are still very sympathetic to people, illegal immigrants, nonetheless, but people who've still been here 20 years. | ||
| You'll probably be under 50% for people who support deporting people like that. | ||
| So I think you do see a sliding scale. | ||
| And then as things get more visual, people can get a little bit more flaky on it. | ||
| I think like another place where this effect is true, it's like people who are very pro-choice, but then when you see literal images of what an abortion really is in practice, the ghoulishness, gruesomeness of it can help sway someone's mind. | ||
| And I also want to note that that's not ever, that's not actually my goal with the journalism here. | ||
| As many people on the right accused me of like trying to garner sympathy for illegal immigrants through my work. | ||
| I'm just trying to document the Trump administration's immigration policy in action and how that's panning out. | ||
| A lot of people also told me that I shouldn't be posting this stuff and like that it's bad that I'm posting this because I will be deported soon enough. | ||
| But I'll have you know that I'm a child of United States citizens. | ||
| Oh well, sorry. | ||
| Sorry to the people hoping that they had a chance there. | ||
| Although, hey, maybe we should start deporting people with American citizenship. | ||
| I've actually seen a funny post where the meme where it was like, oh, just because you had a fudging rat infestation or a bug infestation that's in your house, right? | ||
| That was homeborn. | ||
| That doesn't mean it's a good thing. | ||
| You still have the infestation that you need to remove. | ||
| Cancer is a so-called natural thing that your body can produce, but it doesn't mean that it should be there to stay. | ||
| And it would actually be harmful for you to keep it there. | ||
| You're setting me up by saying cancer and infestation. | ||
| I disavow those, but I do think we should look at it. | ||
| Was that a euphemism? | ||
| I do think we should look at denaturalizing people like Zoron. | ||
| These paperwork Americans are a big problem. | ||
| Like, that's why the term exists, paperwork American. | ||
| They're American on a technicality versus people that have been here, that have stake in the country, et cetera, et cetera. | ||
| And I do think people loving those accusations at you that you're like somehow trying to undermine our deportation operation. | ||
| I think it's just ridiculous. | ||
| I think, if anything, this is useful for people to see that, like, hey, they're actually doing things. | ||
| Because I think the concern from a lot of people on the right is that we're not deporting enough, that we're not involved in all the people. | ||
| We really aren't. | ||
| I mean, as far as the courts go, I don't know if I caught it in the second part of the audio because I repeated myself again, but there's like something like five to ten deportations, a relatively low amount given how many people come through the court and that are actually eligible to be deported and detained, but ultimately aren't. | ||
| I've sat in on many court cases where the court, the judge will say that they are eligible for expedited removal, but the ICE agents didn't have them on their target list, or for one reason or another, if the processing center had too many people or there's other litigation that is ongoing. | ||
| There are many other eligible people to be deported at these courthouses that they aren't doing. | ||
| It depends on how you look at it. | ||
| That means there's a lot more to ramp up if the administration wanted to. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, dude, well, thanks for joining me in studio. | ||
