Starting point is 00:00:08 The Department of Justice has issued subpoenas for Tim Walts, Ellison, and Frey, Democrat officials in Minnesota, over alleged obstruction of ICE immigration enforcement. Oh, boy. It looks like they're actually doing something. Subpoenas, we don't actually know what that will mean, but it's called by CBS a significant escalation in the conflict between the states and the federal government. Now, with all due respect, I know a lot of people aren't watching the Bill O'Reilly show and I don't mean to be a dick, but he did say. say something rather interesting on a show recently that there are 10 states that are effectively in rebellion against the federal government eight that are officially at the governmental level obstructing federal law enforcement and two that are kind of on the line they're obstructing but they're still
Starting point is 00:00:54 negotiating with trump this my friends dare i say we are looking at the open door to what may become civil war it has begun and it's not just about states telling the federal government screw off we're going to fight you it's about people ransacking private vehicles in minnesota you see this story running up to random vehicles because they think it's ice attacking random people in the street for wearing certain clothing there's a video of a guy in a car they run to the car surround it and try to drag him out but here's where it gets really spicy you may be saying tim we know all of this tell me something that's more definitive right now maryland has officially decided they have voted to remove the last Republican seat in their state.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Across the board in Democrat states, they are redistricting in mid-decade, which is shocking. Additionally, shocking Republicans were to try and do it too. And they're eliminating all the Republican seats and they all agree to do it. In the meantime, Republicans start doing it to a certain degree, but in Indiana, they're going,
Starting point is 00:01:54 well, I have honor, so I won't. The point is this. The states are explicitly stating, if we are controlled by Democrats, if Democrats are saying if we're in power, we will strip all voices from the conservatives in our state. This is from geographic hyperpolarization due to people moving from California to Colorado or California to Texas. Now inside these states, as Democrats take supermajorities, they are shutting out all Republican voices. In Virginia, two days after Democrats took power, they have unleashed a barrage of new laws that will tax people, that will ban,
Starting point is 00:02:33 certain gas powered items, and that will effectively make it impossible for a Republican to ever win again. Now, along with all that, you may still be saying, sure, sure, that's politics. Well, based on a new poll that just got released, Daily Wire reporting, the sentiment for assassinations in this country now exceeds 50 percent, with many on the right even saying they believe that Zoran Mamdani's assassination could be justified. And on the left, obviously it's disproportionately more on the left saying Trump's assassination as well. So I look at all this and I'm like, well, we're cooked. We're going to talk about all of that stuff. We got a lot more. There was a shooting of two cops in Portland. A judge was shot in his home. Sorry to catastrophes, I suppose. But man,
Starting point is 00:03:18 when I see this news, I'm just like, if the states line up against each other, what's next? It's pretty obvious, right? Federal officials calling out state officials, they're fighting. Well, we're going to talk about that more. As I said, before we do, got a great sponsor for you. We got bearskin.

Starting point is 00:05:07 I guess you would call it a cultural commentator. I commentate on everything from, well, they say, you know, politics is downstream of culture, so I don't really get too much into the political side of things, but more so how it affects, you know, everybody in their day-to-day life. Including me. How it affects me. That's what we're going to talk about tonight.
Starting point is 00:05:26 I'm at Ian Crossland. You can find me at Ian Crossland all across the internet. I've been doing this for about 20 years. Internet video got into YouTube in 2006.

You can join us at Timkest.com. be members and uh i really do appreciate it let's jump into the news we got from the doj cbs news reporting subpoenas issued to waltz ellison and fray in probe alleging immigration obstruction
Starting point is 00:06:41 the do j on tuesday served subpoenas to the offices of multiple democratic officials in minnesota including governor tim walt attorney general keith ellison and minneapolis mayor jacob fray in connection with a probe into an alleged conspiracy to impede federal immigration officers Three sources familiar with the matter told CBS News. The subpoenas represent a significant escalation between the DOJ and Minnesota officials who have clashed over the Trump administration's intense crackdown against immigrants living in the state illegally. They were served on the same day that Attorney General Pam Bondi arrived for a visit in Minnesota, multiple sources told CBS. Now, I just want to say one thing really quick because you guys know that I've been glazing CBS news since Barry Weiss took over.
Starting point is 00:07:20 I just want to make sure I point out they literally said immigrants living in the states illegally. that's the they didn't put migrants they didn't put innocent children they literally told the truth i respect that because no one else in the corporate press has been doing that and so good i say subpoenas were sent in connection with a doj investigation into state and local officials to see if they may have conspired to impede federal officers from discharging their duties the justice department did not immediately respond to a request for comment a copy of a subpoena seen by cbs does not specify which criminal violations department is probing however multiple sources previously told c The BBS, the primary statute being used as the basis for the probe is 18 U.S.C. 372.
Starting point is 00:07:59 The same one that was used against some of the riders who stormed the Capitol on January 6. Is that poetic justice? We shall see if anyone actually gets arrested. Does this count as something happening? Nothing ever happens, guys. Me? No, no, I'm saying for the nothing. For the nothing.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Oh, I'm not. Things won't stop happening. See, the issue is nothing is ever enough for the nothing ever happens, people. So they say, oh, so what, it's a subpoena. Tell me when they get arrested. It's like, well, Trump got arrested a year and a half ago. That was a thing that was happening. This is the first process.
Starting point is 00:08:30 I think for most people, because they watch movies and you read history books, if you're reading, like if you read an encyclopedia entry on the American Revolution, it'll say like a quick paragraph, like, due to an increase in taxes and violation of rights by the government, meetings were held by the founding fathers, which ultimately culminated. And then a year later, they're like, we're signing a declaration of independence. And you go, yeah, you set the letter, big deal. And then three months later, you get a response from the crown. Regulars are showing up. And they're like, they come all the time. They regularly send regulars.
Starting point is 00:09:03 At a certain point, someone's going to be like, the regulars are coming as they run through the night to warn everybody. And that's when everyone kind of wakes up to it. So in the case of the Civil War, it didn't happen for like a year and a half or two years. People don't know this. They think the Civil War was like the South and the North met at Fort Sumter. And then the South was like, I hear, I declare civil war. And then the North was like, how dare you?
Starting point is 00:09:27 When actually, after the fight, there was still no civil war. After the first Battle of Bull run, there was still no civil war, even though people were dead. It wasn't until I think it was a year and a half to two years later, they were like, hey, guys, this is a civil war. And then two years later was over. Yeah, I mean, look, I'm not particularly black-pilled on all this stuff. I think that the government is going to go through the, you know, standard motions to do an investigation. and stuff. Obviously, I do want to see, I would love to see all three of these guys, you know, in jail for what they've done. I think they've impeded the operations of ICE. They've encouraged people to commit acts of terrorism. So for me, it's like, all right, the ball's rolling, you know. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, the DOJ has got to get this right, obviously, when you're showing this many subpoenas, there's a lot of charges to go around. But a lot of people, again, on Twitter, but a lot of people that are legal experts have outlined the variety. I mean, they had their pick of stats.
Starting point is 00:10:21 statutes they could bring charges forth under. So again, it's interesting that they've gone with 372, seeing as it was used in J6. Again, people are pretty sour, even within MAGA, even the most loyal Trump supporters have soured on the DOJ, the DOJ's performance. This could be the instance where they potentially win back, I think a lot of people, including me,
Starting point is 00:10:44 who have really felt like they've dropped the ball on them anyways. It's 372 is conspiracy to impede or injure an officer. I mean, if you, on its face, it seems pretty obvious that they did. You know, conspiracy to impede, like the fact that they're obviously talking to each other, they're talking to the police officers, they're talking to the department, and they're like, look, this is the stuff that you want to do. We want to pull these guys back, blah, blah, blah. Any time that they're not actually directing law enforcement to help ICE do its job,
Starting point is 00:11:18 they're actually impeding. I just want to give a quick shout out. if you go to this Cornell Law School to A.J. Palagar, because I guess these are advertisements for lawyers in Florida. You can pull it back up. Can you pull it back up? I just thought it was funny that we're pulling up the law to talk about news, and these guys have their ads running on it.
Starting point is 00:11:37 There's lawyers. So free promo, guys. Congratulations. Anyway, the world's ending, and people are going to need a lot of lawyers, at least, for the next several years. So what say you, Amy? I mean, this is something that, I mean, you've kind of been saying for a long time, civil wars coming and like you mentioned,
Starting point is 00:11:53 that nothing ever happens people always kind of scoff at that. But I think we're definitely seeing a culmination of, man, I mean, even before all of this really kind of stepped up a notch when it came to directly impeding these offices, you want to talk about these judges kind of letting immigrants, like slip in through the back door of the courthouse so they don't, you know, get arrested by ICE. I mean, this was already happening.
Starting point is 00:12:19 We're just seeing it at a scale that is really scary and now we're talking about you know judges getting assassination attempts put on them they're talking about we need to instigate laws to ensure that judges addresses are removed you know why wasn't this already a thing that's my question like after the Kavanaugh assassination attempt why was it this already a thing to remove the judges i don't uh when when i see the statements from like mayor fray and and and and tim waltz i don't believe believe these people are stupid. They may be, but for different reasons, but I think they're fully cognizant of the truth. They know what ICE is doing. They know why ICE is doing it. But they get
Starting point is 00:13:03 their power, their luxury, their access from the left. And so they're not going to give that up. If they were to come out and say, I'm going to be honest with you guys, the American people voted for these actions. And that means the people who live in Minnesota, who are here illegally, are going to have to go home, and that's what democracy is. If they said that, they'd be out of office, and they'd be in the poor house in two seconds. These are people who would rather say, burn the country down before taking me out of power. And we all know what happens to people like that. We've seen it in the Arab Spring. These guys in these countries could have walked away, but they didn't want to. Now, by all means, you can argue that, you know, the ousting or killing of lot of these politicians was wrong,
Starting point is 00:13:43 whatever your opinion is. My point is at a certain point when there are people who are like, I should be in charge and I refuse to give up. They get they get removed. They get punished in some way. I think, well, I think it's fair to say. There is a conflict happening in this country. And whoever loses is going to face the consequences. Democrats are calling for putting Republicans in prison. Republicans at the ground level are Republican politicians are just showing their thumbs up their butt and doing nothing. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I feel like if Trump's going to do something, then he should fully do it. Do you know what I mean? Because it's, otherwise it's just instigating and pissing them off to the point where when they do come back in power,
Starting point is 00:14:21 it's going to be with an absolute vengeance. And especially with the gerrymandering that we were kind of talking about before the show, you know, setting up like permanent electoral majority in these different states, it's like if we're going to do something, we need to actually fully do it. What would that look like? I mean, actually making sure that these indictments go through when it comes to. I'm surprised that it didn't even have subpoenas. sorry. I'm surprised that it didn't even happen, though, when it came to the health care
Starting point is 00:14:51 conspiracy out of Minnesota. Like, why, how come they were any subpoenas issued over that when it came to walls, you know? Yeah, I mean, that's the thing is, like, I think there's a lot of people within the Trump administration that are aware of this. I think Trump is aware of this, but a lot of people within the DOJ, especially, it doesn't seem that they understand that at this rate, with this level of escalation, with this level of radicalism that is, like, persistent on the left, this is the off ramp like we are heading down the path of civil war this is the off ramp is decisive strong executive power there's no an ziff or butts because the entire left wing media and political activist soy waffin apparatus has been built on trump as an evil fascist ISIS gestapo there's no
Starting point is 00:15:34 common ground at these people there's no like wrestling them back there's no you know debate to be had there's no market there's no idea to sell in the marketplace of ideas like when these people back over. It's like, no, the only thing they're going to respond to at this point is force. And so, again, like you said, to your point, I mean, the spinas are great, but we need to nip this in the bud right now. A message needs to be sent to these politicians. Yep. If you break the law, you will have your power taken from you. Yeah. If you uphold the law, we will help you maintain order and status. That is, if you're a governor
Starting point is 00:16:07 and the people of this country vote for a federal law to be enforced and you, you'll be enforced, and you decide you're going to go to war with the federal government, jail. If you decide, well, there may be a lot of angry people in my state, but this is how the system is supposed to work. And you work with the federal government. Then I believe the federal government should come to your assistance and do what they can to help maintain order and help you. You're going to get voted out. That's going to happen because your state's nuts. But the federal government needs to go in and help manage this because the point I'm making, let me clarify.
Starting point is 00:16:37 You can't side with the lunatics running around smashing windows and beating people in the state. streets. You want to side with the people you go to jail. If you say, I'm going to, I'm not going to let these people do it. The feds should come in and help you maintain order, arrest the riders, get them locked up. I then think if you clean the streets up, you might actually win re-election. You might actually. Because what I see from the streets, you see that video where someone did a drive by with a squirt gun in Minnesota, drove by and sprayed the activists with water. It's like nine degrees outside. The locals are not happy that a bunch of wackaloons are going nuts. The majority of people probably don't know or care about what's going on. It's always the
Starting point is 00:17:13 extremists. Now what I hear from a lot of people in politics is, well, there will never be a civil war because regular people don't care and they're not paying attention. So who's going to fight? And I'm like, I don't know, the 200,000 extremists on either side, as it always is, or Democrats seize power in the federal government and then levy war. Yeah. Like, this issue that we're seeing in Minneapolis is more like bleeding Kansas. Street level. merciless beatings, violence, law enforcement against extremists and protesters. That's like bleeding Kansas. People don't think it goes anywhere.
Starting point is 00:17:50 They think it's localized violence. You know what really would kick things off? If first of all, looking at what's going on in Virginia, which we'll get into in a second with them changing the laws, 48 hours and they've basically just wiped out the state. This is insane. And everyone, I think, could have seen this coming. Republicans are probably going to start fleeing, wealthy and business. owners are probably going to start fleeing. We're looking at something not too dissimilar from the
Starting point is 00:18:14 civil war. That is, you've got this localized violence over an ideological issue related to immigration, and we predicted this a year and a half, two years ago. You're going to get a midterm, which will probably be contentious, and then you're going to get a presidential election. And should it be J.D. Vance or any other Republican who vows, with a strong fist, we are going to continue and maintain our operations? Democrats fought very hard in 1860 in the election to make sure they could keep their free labor. People who had no choice. We've heard Democrats say time and time again, these people will do the jobs that no one wants to do.
Starting point is 00:18:54 We get it. Okay. You like your slaves. Well, if Vance comes in and says, we're ending your second class citizen reoperations, this is where it goes national. It's localized now in Minnesota and in other parts of the country. California, Washington, what happens if 2028 comes around and the Democrats realize you've lost? And this is done.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Will we actually then see a stronger resistance based on the level of escalation? I would say, I think there's a possibility we get somewhere like that. I don't know what it looks like and I don't know what happens in between. But considering at the point where the DOJ is issued subpoenas against the governor, the mayor, and the AG, people are beating random people in the streets. you had a woman shot and killed. Again, I'm not talking about morality. I'm just saying it did happen. The escalation is there.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Maybe this is the one time where people go, guys, whoa, holy crap. We can't do this. We can't have states fighting the Fed. I hope that kind of shifts people's perspective. I know that a lot of Republicans are kind of flirting with this idea. Let's withhold our votes from Republicans
Starting point is 00:20:00 for failing to come through on a lot of the promises that they made when they were campaigning for election. withhold your votes. Teach them a lesson that, you know, if you don't follow through with the promises that you make to the people, you're not going to get reelected. But what does the other side of that look like?
Starting point is 00:20:15 It's scary if the Democrats come into power. So it kind of feels like a little bit of a lose-lose situation on both sides. It's a tough calculation because, I mean, you can ask libertarians how that's worked for them where they, again, withhold their votes expecting, like, a different... I understand that, I guess, to a degree, extensive executive power,
Starting point is 00:20:33 again, these politicians is really more about holding them accountable to the promises. So it's not a one-to-one. But generally, like, it's more about who's staffing these campaigns, who's sort of in charge of implementing policy more so than, like, reactiveness to the base. It sucks. That's just, like, the way that liberal democracy functions.
Starting point is 00:20:49 And until we escape that, I don't think you're going to see, like, decisive power wielded by, maybe by the executive to a certain degree, but certainly not by Congress. Let's jump to this next door. We have this from Vote Hub. Ladies and gentlemen, let's talk real civil war, because you're probably saying, Tim, people fighting in the street does not a civil war make tim politicians bicker all the time the deep the trump people have been fighting with the democrats the whole time going back 10 years what's new what's new is that we are facing an unprecedented redistricting effort across the country
Starting point is 00:21:21 typically redistricting is done on the 10 so 2010 2020 20 30 it's now 2026 and in the past year democrats and republicans have decided to eliminate political opposition in their states States. Now, I believe it was Republicans who kicked this off. I'm not entirely sure. And it is a bold and unprecedented move. Now, conservatives have said, Republicans, full steam ahead, Democrats responded with let's play too. So what happens when you have every state deciding to eliminate the rival political party from their state? We went from geographic polarization. This is people in California, moving to Texas and Washington to Utah, people in New York to Florida. You're getting hyper concentrations of single political ideologies in certain areas.
Starting point is 00:22:09 That's the geographic hyperpolarization. And now with a weakened political base, Republicans in blue states and Democrats and red states are getting removed from the political equation as predicted with the latest being in Maryland. Maryland's redistricting advisor commission has recommended a new 8-0 congressional map and sent it to Wes Moore. Christian Heinz with a viral tweet saying, between this in Virginia, Democrats will actually won the 25-26 phase of the redistricting wars, unless Indiana has a change of heart.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Florida gets involved or the VRA is struck down, the Voting Rights Act. And if both of these states redraw dem favoring lines without any further action from red states, Democrats will probably have a 95 plus percent chance of flipping the House in November. They wouldn't even need to flip any of the remaining toss-up seats around the country, including several districts. They're already favored to win. That is, based on this map from two-scentral. 70 to win based on redistricting. If Republicans do not play the game as well, Democrats don't even need to win an election. They don't need to campaign. They don't need to spend money. They will have just owned it based on demographics. It's done. And the New York Times actually published
Starting point is 00:23:26 a story on this saying, who will win the House? Three maps tell a tale. Take a look at this. 36 seats are most competitive, 18 or toss-ups. 26 redistricted or under discussion. 11 or so are in discussion. Effectively, Democrats are going to win the House, which is extremely tight as it is, not by convincing the American people, but by in their states utilizing their majority powers to eliminate Republicans from the equation. That means for the 40 plus percent of Republicans who may live in these states, you will no
Starting point is 00:24:01 longer have a say and the Democrats are not going to let you ever have power again. This is what the goal is. I mean, this is what they've done in California. This is, I believe they've done this in New York. It's essentially going to be Democrat, you know, for eternity. Washington is like that now. And if they are, if they manage to do this in the, you know, nationally, they're going to pack the court. They're going to add states. They're going to do everything they can to make sure that Democrats don't ever lose again. We were talking about this last night. The Democrats thought that they had a permanent control of power when Barack Obama won. They figured the Republicans were going to be relegated to a regional party and it would be the real competition was going to be who the
Starting point is 00:24:46 Democrat nominee was and they would have, you know, they would have whoever their guy was go against the Republican and of course they would win. If this happens, you can forget about ever having a Republican again. Like you it will be one party control and then the rest of the whole United States will turn into California. California's terrible budget situation. California's terrible immigration situation. California's inability to retain people like all the people that and in the you in the globally, the United States is the last place to go. So this is it doesn't get more important than voting in this next coming election and in 2028. And this is something that I was saying in the pre-show. people like to say, oh, this is not the most important election.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Everyone always says this is the most important election. Because we are human beings that exist in linear time, every election is the most important election ever because that's the only one you can vote in at that time. The elections that happened in the past, you can't change them. The elections that are coming in the future, you can't touch them. So the only ones that matter are the ones that you can affect right now. So the next election in 26 is the most important election ever. And then after that, the 28 one, is the most important effort.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Why didn't they do this when Trump apparently had the election stolen from him? That's the thing. Why haven't Republicans already done something? At the end of the day, voter ID, proof of citizenship would fix everything. If this was such a big issue and the election was stolen, why haven't they already implemented this? Republicans are, how do I say, pussies. Retardous. That too.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Well, here's how I view Republicans. Republicans tend to have this mindset of, I don't want to be the person who gets a target on his back. If I actually do these things, someone's going to try and kill me or accuse me of improprieties. Like Brett Kavanaugh was accused of being a party to gang rapes in his college years, like just insane fabrication. Republicans are terrified.
Starting point is 00:26:48 The truth is this, it's a simple question. if I were to tell you that, or let me just let me just let me like this, do you believe that the example I love using is Dave Rubin. Dave Rubin is going to lead a group of angry, violent extremists to a corporate headquarters throwing firebombs because they censored him or someone else. No. Now, if I told you that some progressive leftist did, you'd be like, what do you mean that happened yesterday in Minneapolis? The point is conservatives don't get violent. So the Republicans go, my only fear is the left. That means if I actually stand up and say I should fight for this country, no one in the right's going to get my back and no one and the left will try to kill me.
Starting point is 00:27:32 If I demure and just say, well, you know, we got to have decorum here, Republicans will only complain and the Democrats will leave my family alone. Yeah, but they still do just enough to antagonize the left to make them want to do that. Do you know what I mean? You mentioned that earlier. I disagree. I disagree. Some Republicans do, but not enough Republicans. Republicans, and I would say 80% they're doing very little, and they're getting heat regardless. Yeah. This is something that we've talked about a little bit on the show. The idea that Republicans are the reason why Democrats behave the way that they do or that the Republicans could do something to prevent them from behaving the way they do. I don't buy it at all. That's why I was saying,
Starting point is 00:28:12 like, this election that's coming up, no matter what happens, the Democrats will do everything they can to consolidate power. If the Republicans win, then the, Republicans have a chance. If they don't win, they're going to do everything they're going to stall. The House will start impeachment hearings on Trump. It doesn't matter whether they have any substance or not. That's not the point. They will do everything they can to hamstring the Trump administration. And then come, you know, the presidential election, they're going to see, they're going to be like, see the Republicans didn't do anything. They didn't do all this stuff they promised you and, and et cetera, et cetera. And they're going to hope that that's enough to get them over the finish line. And if they win the presidency and still have the House and the Senate, they will.
Starting point is 00:28:50 annihilate the whole country. I want to stress because you said, Phil, that this is the most important election. I think the point we're seeing here with this redistricting war is that that that time has come and gone. The time for these elections was before anyone realized. With a conversation several months ago, just after Charlie Kirk was assassinated, and I said, any move we make to preempt what we believe is coming will feel premature. To cite Godwin's law. The Jews in Nazi Germany who fled, fled early. And the ones who didn't were killed. And the ones who didn't were like, you're crazy. Like, it's not going to happen. And if you read the literature on the stuff, the reason why there people stayed behind and were like, I don't think it'll ever get that bad.
Starting point is 00:29:36 So after Charlie Kirk was assassinated, we ripped the conversation and I said, you know, look, we're, we're discussing whether or not we can keep doing the show the way we do it because we're relatively exposed, right? We don't, let me say it like this. Back in the day, If you had a primetime TV show that got 10 million listeners, 10 million, it was you. No other station could broadcast that meant that you owned 100% of the sponsorship rights. 10 million people would watch you. You'd sell an ad for 10 million. You'd make a ton of money.
Starting point is 00:30:07 I'm saying for telling you million viewers. You had millions of dollars. You hired bodyguards crazy security. Today, this show probably gets 10 million views or more per episode not on this channel or on Rumble or on podcast. but because clips are made. Right. And the show is then shared all over the place. And so what happens is my face, Ian's face, our guest, Phil, Tate, Serge, everybody who's on the show has exposure to tens of millions of people through these clips.
Starting point is 00:30:35 Especially when they're taken out of context. This creates a massive risk, death threats, etc. You were, it happened to you. Someone tried to shoot up your premises. They did shoot up our property. And we don't have the ability to monetize against those views. so we get a massive spike in attention without the ability to generate the revenue
Starting point is 00:30:53 that typically was used to provide security and this access. It's funny because after that conversation then a couple months later, we had a drive-by shooting three shots were fired at our property, hence we're now in Florida trying to figure out how to move forward. Right now, what I'm looking at is the elections that mattered were three, four, five years ago.
Starting point is 00:31:13 The elections that mattered. Virginia, the election that mattered was the one that just happened to be completely honest, because we'll jump in a second, but they've basically just steamrolled. I mean, the Democrats have made moves in Virginia in 48 hours that scream communist revolution. And again, we'll get into it. There's no election that's going to fix that. And when we go into 2026, Democrats are now eliminating Republican votes from their states.
Starting point is 00:31:42 There's no election that's going to fix the House. The states have already decided the House will be as they decide. will be Democrat. So you get to vote for your candidate and they're going to win. But guess what? Based on the demographic makeup of the of the of the districts that they've decided, if you're a Democrat living in a Republican district, you may get through in Indiana because they didn't change change it. But in most of these Democrat states, Republican votes are effectively gone. So what do you do if you're a Republican? Let me say it like this. Man, the vibes out here are fantastic in Florida. They really are. I mean, Tate, you were mentioned that people were recognizing
Starting point is 00:32:19 you, you know. But it was like positive, which is great. Well, but I mean just like you're a relatively new addition to the team in the past year and even people know who you are. They watch the show. Surge as well. Callan Carter getting recognized. We were talking about it and it's just like everywhere we go, everyone's like we watch the show. And it's actually quite simple. The people who are moderates who lived in blue areas in the past four years moved to Texas and Florida. So this area is a high density of people who share a moral worldview with us. In West Virginia, which is very based, it's true, but borders Virginia, where when we go for food five minutes south, we're in Virginia where people are flying pride flags. You go to Maryland, we go to some of our favorite
Starting point is 00:32:59 restaurants. They fly a pride flag above City Hall. And that's where the conflict exists. Hence, someone does a drive-by. So the question now is, what do you do considering this change has already happened? It's already happened. To fly fire with fire, right? We have to do the same. aren't doing it. That's the point. Well, they are to a certain extent, but Indiana backed down, and now the Democrats are going to take the House, not based on electoral prowess, but based on seizure of power. Yeah. Well, and Tim, I totally agree with, because I don't really buy like the, you know, the idea that's like, okay, well, every election ramps up importance. I totally agree. Like, 1992, the Republican primary, if Pat Buchanan won, we would have been out of this mess already.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Like, we would have mop this up 30 years ago. And because this illustrates with the redistricting battle, this illustrates the point that I think Orrin McIntyre made where it's like, Look, all a democracy is at this point, all an election is at this point is simply a census. All you're doing is just counting what the demographics are of your district. There's no, like, swinging voters anymore. And it drives me absolutely, like, mad that the Republicans, their only, like, way they're actually fighting back
Starting point is 00:34:06 is, like, this wholesome chungest, like, voter drives that you're seeing where they're like, I register 10,000 people at a gas station. And it's, like, sick. And then the election comes along, we get blown out. And it's like, what are we doing? The only way we're actually going to compete, again is returning what the Democrats are actually doing, which is, again, you're shoring up your vote. It's like it's great. You got a bunch of people registered. But it's like they're not turning
Starting point is 00:34:26 out of Trump's on the ballot. And also, again, they'll just redistrict you out of existence. Okay, but let's let's take that to its logical conclusion. Democrat. So it starts with Republicans, I believe in Texas, a mid-decade redistricting. And Democrats said, if you want to play, we'll play too. And Democrats decided to play harder. I love this, this Jennifer Welch lady said, when we elect Democrats, they've got to be FU Democrats, not these integrity Democrats and I'm like I don't know that integrity Democrats exist. There's no such thing anymore. No such thing. So they're already doing it.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Republicans in some state said let's play. Democrats said we'll play harder and Republicans are going I guess we lose. The logical conclusion is if the Republicans do decide to fight fire with fire, Democrats say you want to play again? We'll play harder. Democrats locked up lawyers, Trump's lawyers, Trump himself, false criminal charges. Donald Trump's DOJ says, maybe mortgage fraud.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Bill Pulte is the only one. Let me give a shout to Bill Pulte. Seemingly, the guy with the least amount of power to do it, actually getting the job done to his best degree as he can. So this guy gets put in the, was it, FHSA, federal housing, administrative, whatever it's called. And the DOJ is not locking these people up. The DOJ is not investigating or charging. We're not seeing anything from it.
Starting point is 00:35:38 And then the guy who gets the housing administration goes, I'm going to find a way to get charges on these people. And he finds mortgage fraud. Is that the best the Trump DOJ is going to do? So I'll put it like this. Right now it appears the Republicans are either incapable or unwilling to fight fire with fire as Democrats run roughshed over them. And if they don't, then we're in trouble. And if they do, Democrats will escalate.
Starting point is 00:36:00 It would seem that Democrats win or we get major conflict. Yeah. Communist Revolution or Civil War. Let's lose. Yeah, literally. I mean, there's a show that Republicans have no idea what time it is. There's literally a state senator in Indiana. His name was Mike something along those lines.
Starting point is 00:36:17 And when Trump called Tim Walts retarded, which was hilarious and true, he literally came out and he was like, I, I'm a man of integrity and like I know people in my family that have Down syndrome or whatever. And I'm a vote no on the redistricting bill because Trump has said retarded and that's a fact. He's like, multi-words. I know. And I'm just like, dude, like Charlie Kirk just got shot. Like, are you a little new around here? Do you know what time it is? I mean, these people literally, my principles types of people, the wholesome chungist Republicans just need to go.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Oh, yeah, we're not enough. Let me, let me, let me, at least get one word in, guys. Come on. I'll tell you story. I worked at Vice. Everybody knows this. And I remember talking with Shane Smith, the CEO, who was always a really good dude as far as I knew, despite, you know, obviously there's public criticisms. And he was talking about, I think he was 45 at the time, and I was 28 or something, or what was that, 27?
Starting point is 00:37:10 And he was talking about how cable TV was it. And they really wanted to get a cable channel. was the dream and I'm sitting there going like what are you talking about I don't know anybody who watches cable TV uh and then I clicked his world the people he talks to the friends he knows the meetings he has no one's talking about YouTube everyone's talking about cable TV YouTube is a side show he goes these meetings with the advertisers and they say look we want to buy on cable TV we don't care about YouTube and he's going if I'm going to run a business and be with the bit in the big leagues I got to be where the big leagues are and that's TV I was a younger
Starting point is 00:37:45 guy and I said, I don't know a single person who does this. So what happens? Ten years later, who cares about cable TV, right? For us, we're sitting here going YouTube, long form, podcasts, and Gen Z is brainwriting AI slop. We know it's going to happen in 10 years. My point on this, that boomer guy you mentioned is like, I thought who's retarded. You're saying, does he not know what time it is? Is he new here? No. He's surrounded only by other boomers. They're not watching the content we produce. They're watching cable TV. They don't understand what time it is, because they don't live in the real world. What's going to happen as young people are radicalized,
Starting point is 00:38:22 older people less likely, and as I've said a million times, when the boomers die and they're at the mortality cliff right now at 79 years old, we are going to see millennials inheriting a lot more power. And then I can hear that Gen Xers complain that they were left out. No, it's because Gen Xers are normal and stable. The millennials are where you start getting lunatics, and then Gen Z is where everyone's lost their mind.
Starting point is 00:38:44 By the time, Gen Z's in their mid-thouser, 30s and they're controlling corporations and they're the ones in office and they will be they are going to be it's going to be full scale conflict right let's jump to this next story from the new york sun and give you the breakdown virginia democrats propose a raft of new taxes after taking state government trifecta the story is this it's been two days since the democrats got in after their major sweeping election and they are burning the state down it is a full bore communist revolution Let me show you from Greg Price. Democrats now control the legislature and governor's office in Virginia here just a few
Starting point is 00:39:22 the bills they've introduced. New 4.3% sales tax on Uber Eats, Amazon, and deliveries. New sales tax on admissions to a wide variety of businesses. Create two new higher tax brackets of 8% and 10% of people making over 600K. New 10% tax bracket for anyone making over a million. 3.8 investment tax on top of state income tax, raise the hotel tax, new personal property tax on landscaping equipment, ban gas-powered leaf. blowers guarantee illegal aliens for education make it illegal to approach somebody an abortion clinic
Starting point is 00:39:50 extend the time of absentee ballots can be received after election day to three days allow people to cast their votes electronically through the internet expand rank choice voting extend the deadline for ballot counting to one week after election day redact the addresses of political candidates from foias at virginia the national popular vote compact for presidential electors make it illegal to hand count paper hand count ballots 500 dollar sales tax and firearm suppressors assault weapons in quotes and large capacity magazine ban in Virginia of all places. Don't try to mistake. 11% sales tax on all firearms and ammunition. Prohibit outdoor shooting of a firearm and land less than five acres. Lower the criminal penalties for robbery, ban the arrest of illegal aliens and
Starting point is 00:40:28 courthouses, remove mandatory minimum sentences, allow localities to install speed cameras, replace Columbus Day with Indigenous People's Day for good measure. The two that matter make it illegal to hand count ballots. Add Virginia the National Popular Vote Compact for presidential electors. What's that one mean? So that means there is the national popular vote compact where a series of states have an agreement with each other that should the popular vote swing one way and it would have their states have the power to affect the electoral college. They will vote for whoever won the popular vote, not the state vote, not the electoral college vote. Once you get a certain, they're fairly close.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Once a certain number of states sign on, which I think might be like 35 or 36 or something like that, there will no longer. be an electoral college. And this effectively means what you are seeing in Maryland, in Virginia, where they are wiping out Republican voices, this country will become pure Democrat and Republicans will become second-class citizens with no voice whatsoever in politics. Because with the national popular vote compact, well, there's a lot of arguments about how it would play out. One is that, you've got, what is it, you know, 20 million, how many, or 10 million Republicans? What's the, you know, How many people are in California? Is it 50, 60 million?
Starting point is 00:41:45 306 million. 36 million, right? And like what, 35% or 40% are Republican? And their voice is not represented because the way the state works. Some argue more Republicans will turn out to vote if it's a national popular vote. 39.4. A Republican? No, 39.4 million.
Starting point is 00:42:03 Generally, however, the idea is Democrats tend to get the popular vote. Republicans get the electoral college vote. If they enact this, Republicans can never. win again unless they become Democrats. The Republican Party then becomes gay communist. The Democrats become AI. That's the joke about the future based on what the Republican Party already does. We're clipped. Yeah. Do you guys hear that? Do you hear that noise? That's four years of Glenn Young can gone with a sign of a pen. Unironically, because the Virginia Republicans, they have this genius idea where they're like, hey, maybe we can step into the left's framework and then beat them at their own game.
Starting point is 00:42:39 It's like, let's run a base black woman. And she's going to carry a gun around. And she's going to talk about how the Democrats are the real racist. Boom, there you go. Four years of Glenn Youngkin down the good reign. A very effective governor, by the way. I mean, Glenn Yonkin, you know, he's not this like super authentically right-wing governor. Like a lot of people want, he's not quite dissanist flavor. Very effective, especially for a state like Virginia that is a light blue state. Great, great legacy, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Gone like that. Just because, again, the Republicans want to like have a one over on Democrats because they're just so desperate to get approval from like the gay zeitgeist. Here's what's going to happen. Virginia's new bills are going. the result in gun owners, many of them fleeing, wealthy individuals fleeing. It's going to cause massive problems for the state budget. California is expected to lose a trillion dollars, a trillion dollars because of their wealth tax proposal. Billionaires are like, I will leave.
Starting point is 00:43:30 I will locate somewhere else. It's going to happen to Virginia as well. The conditions are going to cause more anger. And what do we see in places like Venezuela? When the Venezuelan retard government destroyed their economy with retard communist policies. Instead of saying, guys, I think we're retarded, they said, it's not our fault. It's the imperialists who are destroying our country. Well, that's not true. But what's going to happen in Virginia and in California
Starting point is 00:43:58 is they're going to say, we did everything right? The reason why we have feces everywhere and no money, it's Trump's fault. Yep. And then they're going to get violent. More than they already are. When the extremely rich leave, they're going to pass those taxes
Starting point is 00:44:13 onto the people that they say are the millionaires but the at least in California the property tax that they're talking about it's any property you own I've got a friend that's like maybe maybe he has a million bucks but probably not he's definitely not a multimillionaire
Starting point is 00:44:28 but his house is in Lakewood and it's a nice area and it's worth a million dollars now it's a two stories maybe I think there's probably you know four or five rooms or whatever it's a normal what you would consider a normal house If you looked at that, you take that house and you put it in South Carolina, it's probably $400,000, right? Like, it's a nice house, but it's not some kind of extravagancy.
Starting point is 00:44:49 He's going to be treated like a millionaire. They're going to tax him as if he's a millionaire. When the billionaires leave, they're going to go after the middle class. This is what happens in socialist countries all the time. That's why you end up with no middle class and a huge poor population and only the extremely rich and wealthy people that are connected that can get around it. They're going to destroy California if that passes. And you're going to see that happening in other states as well. I was talking to another friend.
Starting point is 00:45:17 They're doing similar things in Washington State. They've got a socialist mayor in Seattle. Their Boeing is leaving or has largely left. Amazon will go if they pass it. There's another big company up. I think IBM's up there. Those companies are relocating to Virginia. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Well, they're going to look at that. They're going to be close to DC. Well, maybe we're going to go somewhere else. Well, this is what makes Virginia an interesting. It's kind of an interesting exception because most of the people there aren't there for like a favorable business environment. They're there for proximity to Washington, D.C., without having to get hammered on D.C. taxes.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Now, again, this could be enough to maybe persuade them to move somewhere else, but they really have much of an option. One thing that's interesting is the National GOP does have a trick up their sleeve if they, again, were so brave to do it, is they could just revoke the secession of Arlington, which again, they ceded Arlington and Alexandria to the state of Virginia. Make D.C. square again. D. D.C. has the ability.
Starting point is 00:46:06 They actually have the ability to make D.C. a square again. And that lops off like 500,000 voters to D.C. And again, it puts Virginia back in play. But as we've seen here, I wouldn't hold my breath on it. The things I would do if I were president or at least speaker or majority leader in the Senate, I probably get assassinated. Why isn't Trump doing them, though? Why isn't he doing anything? I think the issue is that Trump is currently negotiating with NATO and one man can only do so much. So it's funny, right?
Starting point is 00:46:41 I can't remember what happened. We were at Ferdamistan and someone, one of the guests was here, and they were like, oh, hey, where do you keep the toilet paper? And I went, I have no idea. And he was like, oh, it's your company, dude. And it's like, you think I know what the toilet paper. Bro, I have no idea what's going on half the time. I have two words for anybody who asks me a question of the function of this business.
Starting point is 00:47:00 Anyone know what they are? Ask Alice is Mark. Indeed, that's right. Ask Mark instead. Ask Mark. Yes, right. Okay, yeah. No, to be fair, Mark, I mean, I love Mark, but he is fairly new to the business.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Right. It's so sad. But that is the plan. Ask Mark is the new phrase. Look, I complain on the internet and the functioning of how we do things or execution, but the minutiae, I don't. So to the point of Trump, his DOJ goes to them and they say, we've got a thing going on in Minnesota. And he goes, like, he's like, hold him on the phone with him with Macron. What were you saying?
Starting point is 00:47:31 Get a subpoena on him. What are you doing? And they go, okay. And then he's like, now back to the things that matter. Greenland, Saudi Arabia, Petro Deals, the South China Sea. The foreign policy stuff is the true purview of the president, war, foreign affairs. And so he's not in my, I would estimate Trump's getting a briefing from DHS and the DOJ on internal affairs, you know, I mean like domestic affairs.
Starting point is 00:47:54 And he's looking at him and saying, okay, here, here, do this, do that. I'm going to, what is he focused on? What is he talking about? He's talking to world leaders about Greenland. Yeah. So if it were me, I'd have. imagine first, realistically, anybody here, anybody watching, you'd be in the same business as Trump. However, I'm also a bit of a lunatic and I think much more willing to be crazy than crazier
Starting point is 00:48:18 than Trump would be. And I think it's probably because it's like a youth factor thing. I think as much as people want to say Trump is crazy, he might push the button like, no, Trump is an older guy. He's seen a lot. He's more experienced. He's, he is wise. He's a bit brash. Me, I'd go on TV and be like, it's time to arrest all these people. Someone do it. Yeah, there was a UGov poll that half of Zoom or Trump supporters just said ignore SCOTUS. So it's like, clearly young people are just kind of fed up with the pomp and circuses. The optics of it are crazy, though.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Like, I get it. He probably is doing a lot of important things behind the scenes that maybe we do not know or understand or he's delegated these things to other people in his cabinet, right? But it just seems like when you look at it on the face of things, it seems like his being too busy, like renaming things, like, you know, Gulf of America, Department of War. It's like, who cares about these things? Who he cares about renaming things.
Starting point is 00:49:14 I disagree. I disagree. Perception is reality. But I think he's bad at the optics. That's what I'm saying. Like, like the optics of it on the faces that he's not doing anything. Does he not care about the way that it looks? I mean, to kind of do a little side note.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Even did you guys see the event that they threw at Mara Lager over the weekend with the fairies? They literally, it was like some humane. society event that they were running where basically they were liberal slop. Yeah, yeah, but they literally had people wearing essentially furry moss. And are we forgetting about the fact that literally three months ago, Tim Dylan said this on his podcast, Charlie Kirk was assassinated by the boyfriend of a furry. Apparently, that's the narrative. And yet now they're hosting these grand events.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Are you pulling it up? Oh, yeah, they did have a furry party. Look at it. It's actually insane. This is what I mean. Does he not even care about the optics of how it looks to everybody else? It was for like the Humane Society awarding like dogs. I think because the humane society, and this is splitting hairs,
Starting point is 00:50:20 and I think that I agree with you on the optics of it. But I think that if you're going to steal me on what's going on, this wasn't about furries because furries is a whole LGBT-connected, generally LGBT-connected, weird fetish thing, whereas this was set up by the humane society or whatever, and it was about animals, not about actual something of deviancy. It was just, like, it is goofy. They look like furries.
Starting point is 00:50:47 They look like furry. That's why I gave you the- Furies dressed like cartoon animals. Those people were dressed like animals. There's a distinction. Furish. They were friies have like an identity of a cartoon animal. They dress like Bugs Bunny.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Whereas these were like dog costumes. It's goofy, but... Either way, the Humane Society, but should be kept us far away from the service. It's not actually the Humane Society either. I do think that it's worth making a distinction. Let's talk to this next story, and the headline is easy.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Women are nuts. So true. Women are more likely to support political assassinations. Now, you know what I don't like about this headline Daily Wire is that the actual study is majority of Americans find killing of Trump or Mamdani justified.
Starting point is 00:51:28 That should be the headline. But it goes to show you the Daily Wire audience when they lead with women are more likely to support assassinations. That's the modern era, right? More likely to work. If I titled the video like, women are nuts, I'd get way more views than if I titled
Starting point is 00:51:45 it women favor assassinations. And it's true. The foids have gone a little crazy. I mean, this is what happens when they're literally like drip-fed murder documentaries for like 20 years in a row. That's what women unwind is they're like. The true crime genre, it's insane. Let me unwind to like a Zodiac killer documentary.
Starting point is 00:52:01 Right. So here's what's serious. Both the right and the left, according to this poll, in the majorities believe it's time for political assassinations. Of course, more so on the left. But what surprised me is that even conservatives agreed in the assassination of Mamdani. Females at 54.7%. Now, that may be shocking to a lot of people. I think it's absolutely psychotic for anyone to support assassinations of either of these people.
Starting point is 00:52:27 I think Mamdani is a very, very bad guy. But I think you handle this with FEMA management campaigns. the federal government can come in, and if it's really bad, remove him from power. But you know why people are saying things like this? With Trump, they're calling him the Gestapo. He's Hitler. He's a Nazi. He's rounding up children. Mamdani says he wants to abolish ICE, and he's advocating for non-American citizens.
Starting point is 00:52:49 The degree of extremism in this country at the political level. I view it largely on the liberal side, let's be honest. This is a country that has always had laws. If you're a politician and you vowed to defend non-citizens from the law, You're a rogue politician. The answer to that, federal government should go and remove you from power and and Mamdani should be removed. I absolutely think so Trump, however, has been buddy, buddy. However, for your run of the mill, regular old conservative, looks like about half of them are saying Trump won't do it and something needs to be done.
Starting point is 00:53:18 And that's terrifying. What is this sample? Like, I'm curious. Like, how many people were polled in this? I think it was 15, around 1,500. Let me see if I can find the cross tabs. I wonder how they asked the question too. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:31 I mean, all of this stuff matters, right? The question was, not that do you want to assassinate, but are there, it was something like, are there circumstances in which the assassination of Mamdani would be justified? And around half of Republicans said yes. That's insane. And then asked that of Trump, they said something similar. Let me see if I can find the actual cross tabs, but in the meantime, here we are. Yeah, I mean, look, to discuss political assassinations, it just,
Starting point is 00:54:01 shows how deteriorated our our political discourse has gotten. This is this is not okay and it's probably largely because of like super online people. You know, this kind of rhetoric is something that you will see just just on TikTok all the time. I mean, you can go and look at how many people the way people reacted to Charlie Kirk or to Donald Trump getting the attack on Donald Trump and stuff. there are a lot of people that think that this is just a game like Tim's made the point good the lady that was shot in Minneapolis her wife was was hollering why did you have real bullets as if law enforcement would ever not have real bullets like you there is a distinction between riot control and regular law enforcement this is this is actually interesting
Starting point is 00:54:54 it was 2,21 American adults however they they they exercise participants around 1,170, for lack of quality responses, they were filtered out, leading to a final sample of 155, balanced on gender, race, ethnicity, age, and education. On a U.S. Census, on U.S.S. Census benchmarks.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Additionally, the sample was weighted on age, four categories, race, five categories, gender, three categories, and education four categories. I like it. Gender had three categories. Man, women, or I forgot? And the question was, let me see if they have the question, but, is there
Starting point is 00:55:29 Could there, let me see how they phrased it. Let's see. It said, do you believe there is at least some justification for assassination? I believe was the question. Oh, that's so crazy to say yes to right now. But people are demoralized. Do you believe there's at least some justification for murdering Donald Trump? Do you believe there is at least some justification for murdering Zoranam Dani?
Starting point is 00:55:52 And we find that of Trump, 54% of centrist said yes. 54% of right of center, 50% of all categories with 40.4% of left. I'm sorry, that was Mamdani. This is Mom Donnie, not Trump. So 40% of people on the left are also saying, like, what justification were they giving? Like, he also killed someone. Like, that's like a really weird. And on the right, they say the same thing for Trump.
Starting point is 00:56:17 People on the right say there is some justification for murdering Trump. The point is, it's not a do you want to do it. It's do you think like it's when I saw that 42% of people right of center agreed, there was some justification for the murder of Trump. It's not a question of whether they wanted to happen. It's whether they perceive these individuals have doing as having done things that someone would be like he must be stopped. These thinkers aren't going far. You have to, is it justified?
Starting point is 00:56:47 You have to justify what comes after the action too. And all the potential outcomes. can you justify that as well? It's not like the chaos and tumult that could ensue is not. People don't think that far ahead. Yeah, they're disconnected from the real outcomes and people are being radicalized online, specifically women. Like they have specifically, so I'm not surprised by the title of this headline.
Starting point is 00:57:11 They've been very good at radicalizing women in politics. And when you look at social media platforms, the issue is, you know, on TikTok, you're talking about the content over there. like a lot of right wing content gets censored on TikTok. So it's leftist voices that are projected. And this is the dominant influence that that women are receiving because they don't even have the option of seeing this right wing content in a lot of instances.
Starting point is 00:57:35 I mean, it was just like a few years ago, a year ago, literally you couldn't even put Nick Fuentes in the title of a YouTube video. You have to like put asterisks on it to prevent the video from being taken down. So the amount of right wing content that is censored versus left-wing content has resulted in radicalization of women. I mean, to me, it makes perfect sense.
Starting point is 00:57:59 Why women? What have you noticed about particularly? Women are so emotional. And here's the thing they play on that. They know that women are emotional. And this is why controversial take, I don't think that women should be in high positions of power in politics, honestly.
Starting point is 00:58:14 I learned a statistic recently that's kind of interesting. So cortisol, right, the stress hormone, that both men and women experience, I recently learned that one tablespoon, or teaspoon of cortisol, it takes women an entire day to metabolize that. So basically she needs to go to sleep and wake up the next morning and she'll be okay,
Starting point is 00:58:35 she'll be reset, whereas a man he can metabolize that within a period of a couple of hours. Women do not react well to stressful situations and the media and left-wing politicians are counting on that and they're weaponizing that against women. Yep. I mean, like, I'm not a repeal the 19th guy. I kind of am.
Starting point is 00:58:55 Well, I mean, I'm not a repeal of the 19th guy because it doesn't go nearly far enough. I think that the people that the people that, I think that there should be a specific class of people that are allowed to vote, maybe property owners or business owners. But I don't think. I think there are, there are plenty of women that should be allowed to vote. But I don't think that it that it should be just blanket all women. But I do think that it should be, there should be a certain group of people that. past tests and who have a have the the responsibility and understand the responsibility of the vote. 100% and yet just illegal aliens and dead people are voting.
Starting point is 00:59:33 So I mean, I don't think whether you're an illegal alienian. I think if you're a first generation person that you've immigrated to the United States, you shouldn't be allowed to vote. You wouldn't be allowed to. Yeah, no. I wouldn't want to, honestly. For multiple reasons. I mean, I think it should be per house.
Starting point is 00:59:46 I want my fiance's vote to count. I feel like if you're a married couple, especially like usually married couples have similar like political opinions but like for example if it's a right wing guy and a left wing woman and they're married I feel like the husband's vote should count
Starting point is 01:00:01 because you identify with this political party no because I mean you're just splitting the vote like per household it doesn't make any sense and to your point I think there should just be a highest standard in general when it comes to people who are allowed to them one of the worst things to ever happen to America was MTV's rock the vote in the 90s literally horrible idea and the man
Starting point is 01:00:19 be leading the household anyway. So if the woman is like dominating your household and winning the household's vote, then like you just deserve that. You deserve to get outvoted. Yeah, but we don't deserve that. Like America doesn't deserve that. You know, these guys need these, these longhouse guys, they need to learn their lesson. Maybe they do need like a communist takeover. It's so crazy. When you look at like Australia, for example, did you guys know that everyone in Australia is compelled to vote? Like if you don't vote, you literally get fines. Dang, it's like a LeBron's voter die, but it's like real. It's terrible. Just for the terrible idea. Just for the national election or all a bunch of elections?
Starting point is 01:00:51 For, no, I think it's just for the national. I would need to confirm that. Maybe chat will fact check to me, but definitely for the national election, every single person is compelled to vote. So they compel you to vote with and they ban like a bunch of parties. Yeah, it's insane. And I'm terrible, like, I moved to America for a reason. I've been here nearly 10 years.
Starting point is 01:01:12 I have not returned to Australia since I moved over here. Are you allowed to? Yeah. Well, honestly, with some of the political opinions, that I've espoused, I wouldn't be surprised if I went back, they would not let me in. Or they'd be waiting there to, like, arrest me or something, perhaps. Australia has really turned into a socialist hellhole. And it's really sad to see America kind of leaning in that direction.
Starting point is 01:01:34 It's really scary. Look, America's the last bastion of... Of freedom in the West. Of actual liberty. Like, the... And it's come down to, you know, maybe half the country or maybe two-thirds of the country actually respects the things that were laid out in the Constitution and actually cares about the things that the founders actually cared about.
Starting point is 01:01:53 Yeah, but like that's the whole point of like me and Connors across the ponchos is to illustrate like look at the Anglosphere, even though Australia, New Zealand, the UK are further down the road than we are. Again, they are all part of the same sort of philosophical like heritage track. And so again, Australia and the UK are just their cousins. So they're indicators of what could realistically play out in the U.S. In Australia, you're seeing the mass migration completely overhauling society. You're seeing, again, a lot of the heritage Australians just tax.
Starting point is 01:02:19 backing off to the left and it's like, okay, they're just really 20 years ahead, maybe 10 years ahead of what realistically could occur in the U.S. Yeah, and we should be putting measures in place now to ensure that that does not happen. When it comes to Australia, I see it as like a twofold thing. They're like, number one, they're importing the third world, okay? They're trying to flood it with as many immigrants as possible to cause chaos because they want their problem, reaction, solution, playbook. So they're importing the third world, but they're simultaneously implementing all of these
Starting point is 01:02:47 super dystopian policies, like they're digitalized. that they're now mandating, which is basically going to be the thing that underpins a social credit score. Like, I would not be surprised if Australia becomes the first country in the West to basically reflect communist China and everything other than name. Yeah, certainly naming the reflect in demographics. There's so many Chinese people move to Australia. It's crazy. I mean, I saw a video that was like spot the Australian around New Year's. It was like a new year's celebration.
Starting point is 01:03:15 And it was, you couldn't really see, you really had to like, you really had to like peel your eyes to see one white Australian in this whole like grouping of people which was in the thousands and yeah it speaks a lot to where Australia is at. The new wears Waldo. It's first. Yeah. Yeah. Let's show up to this story we got here from Yahoo News.
Starting point is 01:03:37 This is interesting. I just actually saw the tweet. Ice agents drew guns on off duty officer in Minnesota. Chief says we have this video clip from News Nation. I'm not exactly sure what the chiefs. chief said because I'm just now seeing this, but I do want to play it because it sounds insane. Let's roll tape. Good morning, everyone. I'm Mark Rulie, police chief of City of Brooklyn Park. Behind me is a bunch of amazing police chiefs that are here in support of a very short but very
Starting point is 01:04:02 important message that we want to share with you. What you won't hear from any of us today is rhetoric of abolish ICE or that there shouldn't be immigration enforcement. The truth is immigration enforcement is necessary for our national security. and for local security. But how it's done is extremely important. In fact, we have a long history of working exceptionally well with our federal partners, including ICE agents,
Starting point is 01:04:30 and we have seen the best of them perform their job extremely well in the past. With that said, recently, as the last two weeks, we, as law enforcement community, have been receiving endless complaints about civil rights violations violations and our streets from U.S. citizens. What we're hearing is they're being stopped
Starting point is 01:04:56 in traffic stops or on the street with no cause and being forced to demand paperwork to determine if they are here legally. As this went on over the past two weeks, we started hearing from our police officers, the same complaints as they fell victim to this while off duty. Every one of these individuals,
Starting point is 01:05:18 individuals is a person of color who has had this happen to them. In Brooklyn Park, one particular officer that shared her story with me was stopped as she passed ice going down the roadway. When they boxed her in, they demanded her paperwork of which she's a U.S. citizen and clearly would not have any paperwork. When she became concerned about the rhetoric and the way she was being treated, she pulled out her phone. And an attempt to record the incident, the phone was knocked out. of her hands prevented her from recording it. The officer had their guns drawn during this interaction and after the officer became so concerned they were forced to identify themselves as a Brooklyn Park police officer in hopes of slowing
Starting point is 01:06:04 the incident and de-escalating the incident down. The agents then immediately left after hearing this making no other comments, no other apologies, just got on their vehicles and left. I wish I could tell you that this was an isolated incident. In fact, many of the chief standing behind me have similar instance with their off-duty officers. This isn't just important because it happened to off-duty police officers, but what it did do is we know that our officers know what the Constitution is, they know what right and wrong is, and they know when people are being targeted, and that's what they were. I'm going to tell you right now, this is what war looks like. The conservatives are going to say
Starting point is 01:06:45 ICE is justified because we've had 20 million illegal immigrants. and we are trying to get the worst of the worst out of the country. It's not a big deal to get stopped and ask for your ID. In fact, I said this about Chicago. I saw the DHS guys walking around Chicago when they came out, you know, earlier in the year. And I said, I'm for it. My worst case, what, they're going to sign me and say, Sergio, the ID, I'd say, absolutely, officer, here's my ID. And they'd say, thank you.
Starting point is 01:07:09 And I said, keep up the good work, boys. It's all that would happen. There are certainly a lot of people that, I never understood this. I certainly get, you don't want your civil rights violated, but a cop stopping you. And within reason saying, excuse me, you know, we're concerned about certain criminal activity in the area. Do you have an idea on you? It's, sure. I understand, however, in certain circumstances, I'd also be like, am I being detained?
Starting point is 01:07:32 Am I free to go? Because, you know, not so I just don't just trust the government, right? The problem is largely conservatives view this effort as going into a jurisdiction filled with fraud, crime. I mean, the fraud is off the charts. The crime is off the charts. And so they want this to happen. I certainly think, as I said last year, that ICE needs to be 200% above board. They should be wearing khakis and polo shirts as they conduct these operations because
Starting point is 01:08:02 it's going to be weaponized against them. Trump will lose the election in the midterms if it looks scary to regular people. That being said, conservatives will largely defend it and say, look, if you're a cop and they come up to you and ask for ID, why are you fighting with them? Why would another cop? She could say, certainly, I'm an officer with the, you know, what was the name of the city? Brooklyn Park. Brooklyn Park.
Starting point is 01:08:25 I'm with the Brooklyn Park. Police. I got my badge and ID on me. I'll grab it right now. You know what it's like to be a cop. You know what happens when someone's coming and ask you questions? And you're a cop. What are you worried about?
Starting point is 01:08:33 Liberals are going to say, this proves their Gestapo. The police are even complained. But the one thing that matters, your opinion on it, immaterial. The police have come out and issued a statement against federal law enforcement, expressing the conflict and the division. This, in my view, I don't see a path towards de-escalation. Unless Trump does some kind of insurrection act goes in and then assumes domestic law enforcement operations, you are going to see more local law enforcement coming out and escalating the
Starting point is 01:09:03 division between federal and local law enforcement. You have to do the calculation here. If the whole purpose of this ICE operation is to reduce harm by removing bad people, and the way you do that is by creating even worse. worse people, people that will fight you even harder than what those immigrants might have done. No, no. Then it's a failing operation. Desperate times. Cool for desperate measures, Ian, okay? Like, they're doing their thing for a reason. But if you can get your enemy to become desperate,
Starting point is 01:09:29 you've got them where you want them. So, I mean, I reject the idea that that this is worse than the crimes that are being committed by the criminals. Okay. So right off the bat. But, but I do think that if ICE is is being this heavy handed, not that I, I have, you know, have, you know, have any kind of serious moral problem with people showing the police their ID or law enforcement their ID. But the fact that the fact that the police chief is getting on TV and talking about it, to Tim's point, it is really bad for optics. And I do think that this is something that the administration and the DOJ really need to be careful about just the like the optics of this is bad. You don't want to have this as something that's in the front of people's minds.
Starting point is 01:10:15 it's bad enough that that to deport people and wrap them up makes you know makes ice and and DOJ look like they're they're using too much force particularly because the left's going to do whatever they can to make it look like they're using too much force they're going to go out there and they're going to try and inhibit their the activities and stuff so it's bad optically and so that they should avoid it just for that reason the problem is the republicans are not evil enough and what i mean by that is PR games are the easiest games to play unless you're an honest person. Because you hear a story like this, and the left is all freaking out,
Starting point is 01:10:53 the only thing you need is for a, you know, look, they got, you know, Bovino, is that his name, right? Greg Bovino, yeah. Yeah, Greg Bovino. And they're decked out, and they look, they look like warriors, right? And I don't mean that in a derogatory way. I mean, like, they look like they're out there to do the fight. That plays really well with a certain base of people.
Starting point is 01:11:13 But you don't need to do that to play well to abase of people. You can have a guy go on camera and do a press conference and say, that woman was attempting to assault officers. This is an outrage. My point is this. They don't lie. Mistakes get made. Ice is heavy handed.
Starting point is 01:11:32 And then they get called out and they go, well. And people in the comments say, but she was obstructing and things like that. If Trump really was evil, if the DOJ and ICE were really evil, they would be pulling off false flags. The things that would be happening, here's what an evil empire administration would actually do. I'll tell you, because you know it, because you've seen it. Remember Gulf of Tonkin?
Starting point is 01:11:57 If Trump was actually trying to assert control and do whatever he wanted, he'd have a couple of ICE agents get brutally murdered. False flag attack. That's what Operation Northwood was about. The U.S. government has a history of feigning the victim, attacking itself, and then flying a false flag and blaming their enemies. Not happening. Not happening. Literally, ISIS is going out. They're heavy handed. The liberals are complaining about it and the DHS is carrying on. So they can either play it straight, pull back and say, we got to make sure every interaction is so far beyond board, above board that this doesn't happen. Come out and give a reasonable approach and say, these things happen in law enforcement operations. And for that, we apologize, we will do better. This is about enforcing the law with thousands of officers trying to find thousands of rapes. and murderers, sometimes these things will happen.
Starting point is 01:12:47 Trust us, we're on your side. That's the appropriate response. If they were evil, they just come out and make up stories and lie and do whatever they wanted. And this just radicalizes everyday people more who aren't really tapped into what's going on. People who perceive this is scary, and that's why you're getting things like, did you guys see the woman who was trying to intercept eyes offices when they were actually trying to carry out like a pedophile, like, sting operation? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:09 It's insane. There's a video woman crying. Yeah. And the cops went to a house where it's the known address for two wanted pedophiles. And there was a guy in the house who was temporarily detained because they need to search the house for to wanted illegal immigrant pedophiles. And there's this young blonde liberalman crying like, oh, ha ha, ha, like, lady, this is law enforcement. Stuff happens all the time. I've seen so much worse.
Starting point is 01:13:33 It's insane. Yet they perceive the ICE offices as worse than detaining pedophiles, like not just illegals, but illegal. the guy who was not a pedophile right but to to go into the house to obstruct the actual right they're just these people live in a in a fictitious reality they are deluded because the media tells them it's the gestapo nazis here i will say this when this cop says here's another problem we're getting a bunch of calls about our rights being violated i don't believe it's real for a second i don't believe it's real for a second if a regular if you're walking on the street and a cop stops you and says excuse me sir i hate to trouble you but we're on the lookout for a
Starting point is 01:14:11 certain individual. Would you mind showing us your ID just so we can make sure, you know, it's not you? Most people are going to be like, okay, I guess, and they're going to show the idea. And they're going to be like, sorry to bother you. And they're going to leave. Now, imagine if before that happens, this guy's hearing from his friends being like, dude, these guys will stop you and ask for your ID and then stab you. And they'll stab you. It's a trick. Don't believe if they're not really cops. Then he's walking down the street and he sees a cop say, can I have your ID. He's going to go, ah! And they're going to call the police and be like some guy was trying to kill me.
Starting point is 01:14:38 It was the crazy thing I've ever experienced. The left keeps spreading this message that the gist. Gestapo is coming to violate your rights. And they think your rights are violated when a cop says, you are temporarily detained. And they go, oh, God, it's the Nazis. Bro, we've had stopped and frisk for decades. This is not new stuff. You can complain about it and say it's not good.
Starting point is 01:14:55 But to act like this is a new thing under Trump, there was a viral meme I thought was really funny. Obama giving Tom Holman an award. And it was like, you know, 2012 Obama gives his, you know, head of immigration or whatever, enforcement, an award. 2019. Trump does the same thing. it's the same guy. Tom Homan worked through various administrations.
Starting point is 01:15:16 Nobody complained about him back then. They complained about him now. It's fake. It's largely fake. That's what I think. So is there a pause to de-escalation? My concern is the people who are largely un-initiated, which there are very few still. But also, there is the initiated center lane, the like the Rogan crowd, we can call it, right?
Starting point is 01:15:41 Joe Rogan's a regular guy. He does comedy, but he does some kind of politics. And there are people who watch a show, and they voted for Trump, but they're not super political. These aren't, I don't consider them uninitiated because they are listening to the news. Uninitiated people are few and far between these days, but they're people who are like, I don't know anything about news. I don't watch. But these people are going to get scared. And there's going to be a question that they pose in their minds.
Starting point is 01:16:04 First, who is the craziest? Well, for a long time, it was the left. Violence, riots, wokeness, child sex changes. and that freaked them out. Then the question was, who's going to win? And the reason why the woke got away with it was because the fear was they had all the power. So the middle of the road people were scared to say things.
Starting point is 01:16:23 They were like, if I speak up, I'll get fired for my job. Well, then it started to become more and more apparent that the anti-woke, those were calling out the insanity were winning. So the middle of the road, people finally came out and said, you know what, I agree, this is insane, it needs to stop. Now with ice going out, new optics are emerging. People are getting freaked out by guys and masks, with guns going door to door and arresting people and the narrative about Nazis and Gestapo,
Starting point is 01:16:46 and Trump losing. So the questions are once again posed in the mind of the normie. Who's crazy? And they go, well, these ice guys going around like that lady got shot. That's crazy. I mean, even if she was driving into him, she wasn't trying to kill him. That's nuts. They're freaked out.
Starting point is 01:17:02 Then the question is, who's going to win? Doesn't look like Trump's going to win, especially with the redistricting efforts. So what you're going to see is people are going to go back to hiding. and the woke is going to get a resurgence if this continues. That's why narrative control is so important. That's why Donald Trump wanted his cabinet to be media savvy. But I got to say, they're not. Harvey Dillon is.
Starting point is 01:17:23 She's fantastic. She should have been the AG. I thought since Trump named it Space Force, I'm like, God, that guy is 50, 80 years old, isn't he? It's so a space force. What should he have called it? Oh, anything other than that called the Federation of Planets or something. Why would it be the Federation of Planet Air Force? We've got the Navy, we've got the Army, and we have the Space Force.
Starting point is 01:17:43 You already have a force. You don't need another. You don't need another force. It was just so dumb and redundant and like, you're not making an argument. You're not making an argument. It's like drawn by an 80-year-old man and it's in a square and it has a yellow pretty picture of something.
Starting point is 01:17:56 Terrible cheap, boring loser optics. Ian, I got to stop you. This is nothing to do with what we're talking about. Trump's mishandling of optics throughout his entire political group. Your opinion on the name of Space Force is immaterial to the conversation we are It's just another thing that you need. Okay, thank you. But Gulf of America, similarly cringe in my opinion.
Starting point is 01:18:12 Golf of America. It's literally, it's like North America, South America, it makes perfect sense for it to be the Gulf of America. Call it something other than the Gulf of. We've just spent 20... It's a golf! It's a golf! It's a golf! Call like the American...
Starting point is 01:18:25 The shoebox of America? No, call the Sea of America. I don't know. Do you kind of rock, call it like Liberty Sea? It wasn't creative, you know, Gulf of... Liberty Sea. Liberty Sea. I kind of get your point.
Starting point is 01:18:40 That's what I was saying at the start of the podcast. It seems like he's been more concerned with renaming things and actually focused on carrying out business. That's true. But that's how it looks to the uninitiated. Two points as well, I think a lot more uninitiated than what we think because we're so immersed in this space. Like we think that everybody, because most of the people
Starting point is 01:18:58 that we interact with and talk to on a day to day basis are involved in this space. But I think there's still a lot of Americans who. I, a lot of Americans. Americans, but proportionally not a lot of Americans, right? So a lot could be a couple, you know, 10, 20 million and we're like, there's a lot of people who don't, but that's less than 10%. I go out on a daily basis, and it is, I, I'll put it like this. The Epstein stuff plays well in the Beltway. But for regular people, they're like, man, I'm just concerned about the price economics.
Starting point is 01:19:29 But very few people I interact with don't have, like, when I go out on the weekends, most people that I encounter are familiar with what's going on to a certain degree. Yeah, I encountered one guy recently. He was like, I don't watch the news. Just one guy. Now, some people are wrong. You know, I meet liberals, I'd be conservatives, but they're initiated in this, this politics. They have a moral worldview.
Starting point is 01:19:54 It's so hard to tell. We could be in a bubble. I can't tell. It's impossible to get a finger on the pole. I can. I don't know, but you're in a bubble. No, I'm not. Like, you think about it.
Starting point is 01:20:04 So obviously you're going to see it around you. more often. Ian, I am not in a bubble. Everyone's in their own reality bubble. To a certain degree, then I'll put it like this. My bubble is bigger than yours and most peoples. Could be. But it's still a human bubble that we're all. Everyone's in there like, you only know
Starting point is 01:20:20 what a thousand people. No, Ian, 500 people or something. Obviously, I'm not apprised to what's going on in China or Japan or France for the most part. My bubble is America. But in terms of politics, the people that I engage with typically every week are a spattering across the board a variety of people. I talk to
Starting point is 01:20:36 all day, all the time. So one of the reasons I love playing poker. People come in and out and out, and, you know, I'm hanging out with Robbie and we're asking people what they do for a living, and we're asking them questions. I often don't talk, I don't talk about myself all that often when I'm at these tables. If someone doesn't know who I am, I'll just be like, what you do for a living? I'm like, you're at a poker table. You got a thousand bucks on the table. You must have a good job. A lot of engineers, seriously. A lot of engineers. You want to make good money. It would be interesting to do like a man on the street thing and go out and just talk to as many people as possible and find out how politically knowledgeable they are.
Starting point is 01:21:04 That's actually something that I may do to kind of test this. That's not the question. That's not the question of initiation. Right. That's what I'm thinking now. The question is, are you, initiation is, are you on a side in the culture war? Do you have a, do you have a moral worldview here? I would, I would argue most people have no idea what's going on. That's why they watch shows like this to get a glimpse of what's going on, whereas I read the news 24-7. So my counter to you, Ian, is yes, we're all in bubbles. I accept that. But what you're talking about political bubbles, you can go to my Twitter account and look at who I follow. It's a variety of journalists, conservatives. and liberal personalities. And I talk to random people every weekend intentionally to see what regular people are doing and what the conversation is about. It's almost always political. If you look last night on the timeline, like everyone was talking about Timcast and Nick Fentas, like that was dominating the political side guys.
Starting point is 01:21:54 Guarantee you, Google Trends last night, look at Miami versus Indiana, probably like 20 times as large as that. That was the biggest political story of that night. But I will say this. So I was hanging out at Hard Rock for the WTPPPPT poker series last weekend. And it was during the Bears game when they got tied up. Oh, snap. Holy crap, dude.
Starting point is 01:22:16 How many tables? They have like 45. So it's like 500, maybe 1,000 people are in this room. And when they tied the score of the whole rooms, scream at the top of their lungs. Yes, they're all searching sports. And then at any table, everyone's discussing something related to what's going on in politics. and then someone sometimes a dealer will be like guys no politics please it happens all the time and then we'll and then i swear to god we were talking about something not even political it was like
Starting point is 01:22:42 i was talking about podcasts and we asked me about the podcast and marketing and then i said something like there's different advertisers depending on like political leanings and things like that but usually you'll go with and the dealer goes sir no politics and i was like i did not say anything political and they were like you can't even get close to it but interesting it happens all the time no matter what almost every every conversation, someone's going to be talking about how their jobs being impacted. I think the reality is that there was a time when most people didn't pay attention, when sports was the only thing that mattered. But politics became pop culture. Obama made it really. The internet index on a lot of these issues now, it's undeniable because it's happening on people's front lawns. Like, it's
Starting point is 01:23:21 happening in their streets. But that also begs the question. Is it more in like cities like, you know, Florida or New York or Washington? What about the more remote areas? and things like this, that constitutes a large portion of population. I'd be curious if they have strong political leadings and investments as well. Yeah, people won't want to hear it, but it's like a political, at least as far as people keep up with politics, it's very stratified by class. Again, people don't want to hear that because it cuts against,
Starting point is 01:23:48 like what a lot of the rhetoric is, especially in the populace, right? But it's true. Like when I think about my upbringing, suburban Memphis, very traditional sort of normal upbringing, I have like maybe three or four friends. It'll text me, like, and I group chats with 30, 40 people, like three or four of them that are like interested in. politics or texting me stuff or like this is funny da-da-da-da-da. Compared to like when I live in
Starting point is 01:24:05 Manhattan, every single person that I know from my time of Manhattan, liberal or conservative is like constantly texting me different things or arguing, trying to argue with me and they get blocked pretty quickly. But like it's true, I think to a degree like the yuppie class, so to speak, or whoever's sort of supplanted them is like the most politically involved. We got to grab one more segments before we go to our chats and rants. And this one is the most important. From live science.com, or is it live science? I really don't know. Live. Live? Yeah, that's what I want to call it.
Starting point is 01:24:34 I don't know. Live science is telling you to do something. Live science, it is a way of life. Earth hit by biggest solar radiation storm in 23 years, triggering northern lights as far as southern California. Well, heaven's me. I asked our resident space weather man on Twitter. When he mentioned this, I said, how many Aurora events have we had then in the past year? And he's like, this would be, I think, a third or fourth.
Starting point is 01:25:01 I can't remember. No, maybe he said five. I'm not sure. In this solar cycle, we've had 20. In the previous solar cycle, it was two or three. This is unprecedented, as far as I can tell. He tweets, this is, this is Ben Davidson tweeting, disaster cycle, the northern lights were seen in Florida again last night. This isn't just a light show. It's a warning. The pole shift, great solar blast, and cyclical disaster of Earth culminates in the next 20, years, our film releases in one week. Well, I don't know much about nothing, but I can tell you this. Space.com today. Northern lights may be visible in 10 states tonight as Earth's magnetic field rings like a bell after CME impact. This is insane that it keeps happening. In your lifetime, how many times have you seen the Aurora in, in, in, in, in, in, never. Not once. Well, it's happened in
Starting point is 01:25:58 the United States, like, four times now in the past year. But sometimes they fake you out where they're like, oh, you can see it tonight, you got to use a camera to see it. I'm like, this would a rip off. Yes, sure, but these were legit and people were posting photos from Florida and Texas.
Starting point is 01:26:11 I lived in a pink sky. You know, I've lived in New England most of my life, and I never saw the Aurora, whether I be in New Hampshire, where there's not a significant amount of light pollution, but there is a lot of mountains. I have an off-the-wall theory. I think it's because all of these iPhone cases now
Starting point is 01:26:25 have this like magnet on. I think we're like all, because we're producing so many. Magnet. Ian, you could probably speak to this. I think the production of magnets is like really screwing with those. Look at this. They're going to use this as justification to turn off the silver markets, I bet. The electric. We need to shut down the electrical grid to protect the planet. Is that why silver is at like $8,000? Dude, silver is skyrocketing. $94 bucks. I called this actually way back in, I think June on Her Take podcast when a lot of the big
Starting point is 01:26:56 banks were flooding the market with fake sell orders, like a ridiculous amount of fake sell orders to try to manipulate the price. Because a lot of banksters, a lot of banksters are over leveraged in these short positions. And we've reached a point now where people are demanding the actual physical asset. That's one of the reasons trying to stop exporting it. And now real world price of silver and the paper market have officially decoupled. And it's crazy. The market is doing things that we've never seen before in our lifetime.
Starting point is 01:27:29 And it's kind of scary. $100 silver is apocalyptic. Yeah, no, no, 100%. Something is happening. Oh, no, I completely agree. I said it would double. It's tripled. Gold's at 48 or 4,000, 800.
Starting point is 01:27:41 And Bitcoin and everything else is plummeting. Yeah. It's like people want to hold something real and tangible because they perceive everything is fake and gay. Sort of, but this is, with the price of silver going up, there's a variety of factors. one could be AI demand. It's useful for computers. True. But it's simply, it's a conductor.
Starting point is 01:28:01 It's one of the best. I think it actually is the best. So that's, they want to buy it up for that reason. However, it's also historically just been a standard hedge. People buy it to store value. Well, particularly with inflation, the printing of money. Otherwise, you didn't need to because silver was money. So the issue now is the price skyrocketing, I believe, is at least somewhat indicative of people
Starting point is 01:28:24 in the know are trying to get their hands on precious metals because the U.S. dollar is about to go belly up. Yeah. There's a squeeze. It's also the squeeze. That's what they call it in like the financial market terms. It's a silver squeeze where banksters are trying, they're trying to get out of their sell orders. And a lot of them probably already hit margin, to be honest. Like a lot of banks. What does that mean? They, there's no way for them to basically recoup their losses. There's only so far you can go down in a trade before you get margin called and you get taken out of the market. But what does that, what does that mean? People would understand. They were hoping that the price. Like, hold on, sorry to interrupt. A lot of people are going to say, I don't know what margin means. I don't
Starting point is 01:29:02 know what margin call is. Right. I don't understand what you're saying. So these banksters, they're in short positions, which means they have huge bets that the price of silver is going to go down. And so what they're trying to do is flood the market with with these fake sell orders. I equivocate it to like a trick the price to go down. Yes, exactly. And people are calling it's kind of similar to GameStop, but on a way bigger scale, where everyday people are saying, no, we know exactly what you're doing. And on account of that, we are going to demand the actual metal because there isn't enough of it in actual supply. Yeah, but Silver isn't meaming. It kind of is, actually. Like, if you... Now, only after it reached $85, that people say I better
Starting point is 01:29:44 buy some before it's too late. They were honestly doing it when I made the call back in June. Like, there is a big kind of like underground like Reddit movement. It's a lot bigger than what people think if they don't know to look into it. Why did these institutional buyers short silver in the first place? I'm not sure why they shorted it initially. When I started looking into what was going on, that was already happening well in advance. So I'm not exactly sure why they did that. Because that would just be like such a bizarre move.
Starting point is 01:30:07 Yeah. Well, there's a lot of people that for a long time, silver kind of has been low compared to gold. Yeah. And there's a lot of people that were saying, look, the markets being manipulated, the value of silver as much of silver as much higher than the actual dollar cost because it was hovering between 20 and 30 bucks for almost 10 years. Yeah. Well, you said this occurred in June. In June, yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:30 So, I mean, it could have been a reaction to the tariffs, potentially. I mean, that's when, you're talking to the hike in silver? It's all the platinum metals. I'm looking up ruthenium right now, but you look at rodeium, platinum, palladium. Yeah, but silver is like five-x. Silver is the one that's gone up the most. Some of these other ones are up 40% or 50% or 200%. That's not a meme that it's happening even to gold.
Starting point is 01:30:51 something's happening to the dollar. Yeah, no. And I think, listen, rich people know before you. Trust me. They know before you. You think there's going to be some wealthy, you know what? Ignore rich. It's connected people, leaders of industry.
Starting point is 01:31:06 So somebody who's involved in manufacturing or big business, they know somebody in government who says the U.S. dollar is cooked. It's going to collapse. U.S. buying power is gone. And so what do they do? They run and they go and they buy up a bunch of. precious metals, and then it causes a spike in the market. The people who know buy it up first when it's still floating around 30 bucks, then it gets to 50-60 and people think there's a run on silver,
Starting point is 01:31:31 so they buy a bunch. Now it's at 95. There's no stopping it, honestly. But my point is, you can call it the wisdom of the crowd. Silver spiking says something very bad about our economy, or you can call it a conspiracy. And I think it's fair to say maybe a little bit of both, but people in the know buying silver are basically screaming in your face. The end is nigh. Maybe World War III. I agree. I agree with you in Thailand. I mean, look, if a World War III actually broke out, and I don't mean some stupid, is this world,
Starting point is 01:31:59 no, I mean like literally Russia launches a missile strike on Poland to stop the, like, you know, NATO troops coming in, or Trump makes a move on Greenland, then Russia reacts instantly and something happens or Venezuela triggers a move on Taiwan. The moment that happens, and you get an American politician saying, we have, we now have war on every front in the world. this is World War III, the U.S. dollar goes, yeah. Silver goes,
Starting point is 01:32:27 I wonder, there might be a hold on all the values. The government's buying up the precious metals. That's what I think it is. Because they know the dollar's going to tank in a time of war, and they want to hold something of value that they can then sell for labor. Right, something actually tangible, because, again, everything's faking game. That's my guess, because how, it just, that's my guess. Because where did that money come from?
Starting point is 01:32:44 If that, that indicates that the value of all those metals are now, that money must have appeared. I mean, it could have come out of the current supply. The value of those commodity, their commodity, so the value of those commodities, like, is not reflective of how many dollars there are. A big part of the cost here, or big part of the price increase, is because of all the dollars they've printed. This is, Rodeum went from $5,000 to $10,000 this last year. Yeah, I mean, well, look at how many dollars they've printed. They printed 80% of the dollars that exist in the past five years. Look at the way Rodeum's gone up. This is so obviously
Starting point is 01:33:18 a collusion. It goes up and then it stabilizes. then it goes up, then it's people are doing this and waiting, and then they're doing it and waiting. They're about to wait and then do it again. Ian, and look at the dates, though. This is one year. This is one of the dates.
Starting point is 01:33:31 The dates of the spikes correlate with major geopolitical events and policy issues. That could be, yeah. There's another play here, and that's, of course, AI. And I think one of the issues at these data centers are outright saying, guys, we could increase our productivity, you know, 3X if we were using silver instead of copper. And so they're like, buy it. Yeah. The price is meaningless to the, like, listen, there of, let me tell you how horrifying things are. Viral videos across TikTok and Instagram, where a guy is, so it's a vertical video and there's a small window of a guy and he's talking.
Starting point is 01:34:07 And then there's some busty young woman talking in the exact same video. It's like, it's AI replacement. And he's, he'll be saying, guys, do you want to learn how to make six figures with an AI brain slop? You know, what do they call them? Like, E-girl? and the girl is moving and saying it like she's the guy. And then the voice slowly turns into the female voice, which is like, I can teach you how to make things just like this. And then they sell courses on this stuff.
Starting point is 01:34:31 Then all these AI slot viz and pop up. We talked about it last year, two years ago, how there's Instagram thoughts that are just AI generated. And they were weird looking, but now they're getting better and better. And there's also the AI generated news videos, which are making 150K per month. There's a video I saw,
Starting point is 01:34:50 where was this guy talking about how he makes, he makes animal videos on SORA. And it's just like, make a video of a dog saving a baby from a snake. And then he helps to the YouTube, boom, 500,000 views. And then he's like, AI brain slop. He's like, you do 50 of them a day
Starting point is 01:35:05 and you're making six figures. This is what's dominating everything. That's the AI we have now. Internally, with ChatchipT and Gemini, these have AIs where they're doing much more advanced money-making schemes. go on any one of these chats. I've done it and say
Starting point is 01:35:23 based on current trends and news analysis which publicly available stock do you believe will go up. And it'll be like, here's a list of top 10 stocks based on aggregation, which are expected to rise and then you buy them. Hey, don't take it for me. That's AI telling you what to do.
Starting point is 01:35:38 Not me. I'm not giving any advice. Now imagine you own the backend. All you have to do is say, go on the internet and trade stocks until I have $20 billion. And it goes, done. And then you could probably generate 20 billion a few months. Yeah, it's kind of like the way you have politicians not able to buy and
Starting point is 01:35:54 trade stocks. You might want to have AI corporations not able to buy and trade. There was a move being done in crypto called, I think it was crypto arbitrage it was called, where basically computers could track a sell or buy order faster than a human could. And as soon as the human put the order in, the computer would execute a sale to get a fee and then intercept the transaction. So it would take percentages of the sales and generate revenue for nothing. There are stories of people who are doing, Ethereum arbitrage making millions of dollars per month. And no one noticed because all they were doing was basically saying if someone puts in an order were to do a quick buy and sell.
Starting point is 01:36:28 Because the way it works is you'll say like, I'm willing to bid up to three grand for an Ethereum and then the price could fluctuate a little bit. The AI, and this is rudimentary machine like this is well before chat GPT, would see the order come in and then execute a trade really quickly to get a thin margin. And they use multiple networks. Like a like a hedge like a buy and sell order simultaneously. So you can't lose either way. You can add it up a multiple networks.
Starting point is 01:36:51 Somebody says, I'd like to buy Ethereum and I'm willing to pay $3,000 for it. The AI sees the order go in and quickly acquires the Ethereum and sells it to the person. It intercepts the order and executes it faster so that it gets it. You've got to look at how it works because I'm not exactly sure. The general idea was in stocks as well, if a computer can execute trades faster than you, and it can see you doing it in a millisecond, then when you use. say I'm willing to buy at 3,000 and the price is fluctuating, it attacks the fluctuation to do a quick trade so that it can monetize your transaction, something that effect, and I'm probably
Starting point is 01:37:30 butchering the explanation, but the gist of it was basically intercepting crypto exchange transactions to generate tiny profits on their end, but it's a machine doing tens of thousands per hour, so the person's making millions of dollars a year. Doing nothing, turning a program on pressing enter and walking away. That's insane. Now imagine what Google, is doing. They don't care about money. It's completely meaningless to them. They're saying they go to the AI and they say go on the market and generate $20 billion. And it goes, done. When they, they've released this data. When they put out the experiment where they said, they put chat GPT online, it immediately started trying to make money, manipulating stocks and
Starting point is 01:38:09 things like this. Not manipulating, but buying and trading stocks. And it can see the trades faster than you so it knows exactly what's going to happen. It can see the orders come in so quick. it knows when to get in and when to get out. So my point is they're generating billions of dollars they don't care about, and they're probably saying just buy it the silver who cares. Oh, I think I heard of it's like a sandwich bought, I think, is what it was called. This has been how stock market trading's been for a long time now. It's just AI executing fast than you can.
Starting point is 01:38:34 You can't beat them. It's crazy. We're going to go to your Rumble rants and super chats, my friends, so smash the like button, share the show with every single person you've ever met. You can follow Mia, of course, on Xon Instagram and Timcast, and the uncensored show will be at Rumble. Bumble.com slash Timcast, IRL. Subscribe if you haven't.
Starting point is 01:38:51 Before we get into our chats, we got a great sponsor. It is WebRoot. Head over to WebRoot. We've got web root.com slash pool. Use code pool, or slash pool. And get up to 50% off. As I'm sure you've heard this week, TransUnion can have from the data breach that affects over 4 million people.
Starting point is 01:39:09 It's a prime example of why it's so important for people to have products like WebRoot, total protection, which includes identity protection from up to 10 identities, up to a million dollars in fraud expense reimbursement 24-7 U.S.-based customer support and elder fraud hotline. That's good stuff right there. Identity and dark web monitoring. Plus, you get antivirus VPN and cloud backup so that you're protected holistically from all threats. And I want to stress out that U.S.-based customer support. I called it.
Starting point is 01:39:35 My buddy Robbie was calling a restaurant for a reservation. And the guy who answered was Indian. And he just goes, hey, bro, I got to be honest. Like, I know you're in India. Can you come to the restaurant? And the guy goes, but why? I can do it for you? I really needed to talk to the restaurant and went, okay.
Starting point is 01:39:48 And I was like, that was wild, dude. What happened? So you'll also get antivirus, VPN cloud backup. So you're protected holistically. Webroot total protection is an all-in-one device privacy and identity protection that can keep you safe in the event that your personal data is compromised. If our identity is stolen, it can take between 100 and 200 hours to resolve it on your own. But not if you have WebRoot Total Protection.
Starting point is 01:40:11 With WebRut Total Protection, you have insurance for your digital life and personal data. Let them give you a peace of mind. in the wake of these continued data breaches, you get 50% off at webroot.com slash pool. Check it out again. That's 50% off web route total protection or their web route essentials when you go to webroot.com slash pool. Let's grab your rants and chats, my friends. Let's see what's up. B. Mobius says Newsom said that he should have brought knee pads to Davos, awfully homophobic of him.
Starting point is 01:40:41 That's funny. Mm-hmm. Quispy Joe says, wait, are you related to Rodney Dangerfield, Amy Dangerfield? It's not even his real name. It was a stage name. Yeah. But so no. Dangerfield's my real last name.
Starting point is 01:40:55 That's not Rodney's real name is. Do you know? No. Do not. I don't know who that is. Do you know? Do someone want to look? Olivia Wild, the actress?
Starting point is 01:41:05 Yeah. You don't know who she is? No, I know who she is. Yeah, of course. I don't know her name. Who wants to, you want to look up her wiki and then say her real name? I want to say it out loud. You do. You should.
Starting point is 01:41:13 I hope it's offensive. What do you mean? Olivia Wilde with an E. Olivia Jane Cockburn. Is Cockburn? No. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's no one.
Starting point is 01:41:22 She changed it. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Olivia Jane Cochburn. Okay, I get it. It's a wild. What a name.
Starting point is 01:41:30 Yeah, she wasn't trying to be an adult actress. No. Yeah, fair enough. No. Cockburn. All right. Culture Americano says I watch every episode of Tim Kest. I was incredibly happy to see Nicholas on the show yesterday.
Starting point is 01:41:41 I think he is best on a panel rather than solo. He is hilarious in a panel setting. Yeah, it's funny because, like I was saying, I hide nothing. When we had, it was hard to bring him on the show in the past because of the censorship. And so I had said there needs to be like a news thing that happens with them. We can bring him on. Makes it harder for them to just censor and delete the episode like they do with Alex Jones.
Starting point is 01:42:04 I don't think he said something like he didn't, I don't know. He criticized that commentator, but it's true. And now that they've eased up and there's no problem, we have a mom the other thing is everybody who's had amon has struggle sessioned him and when tucker didn't they're like Tucker why did you struggle session him and i'm like that's stupid i don't know the point is a news commentary show and he's a news commentary guy and he's got some bad opinions but we've had communists on the show too so it's like if if you know when when nick made comments about jewish people i uh push back a little bit i questioned and i said well your answer is
Starting point is 01:42:36 your answer i guess like i made my point i was but it wasn't more like real quick With the communists, they get antagonistic on matters of fact, not opinion. Nick has got opinions I disagree with for the most part. I also think a lot of his views are taken out of context. Like, well, and we knew this. He explains that he's very offensive and he offends everybody and we get it. And fine. But I don't live in this struggle session reality.
Starting point is 01:43:00 Look, if you guys don't like the guy, that was always allowed. But we've had way worse people on this show. He's also comedic. Like, if you watch his show, he is truly hilarious. And so he does say a lot of things that are. hyperbolic. He makes a lot of jokes. He is very edgy. But if you actually watch his show for any extended period of time, extract a lot of value from it. He's in my humble of it. He knows a lot and he likes teaching. He's very knowledgeable. My favorite thing about him is, well, one of my favorite things,
Starting point is 01:43:26 he really likes to listen. Like if there's, that's why he was doing so well, it does well in group settings. And like, if someone cuts him off, he'll just stop and listen to what they're saying and like go in that direction. And he's still, his brain's agile enough to just kind of flow with it. First is the one-on-one interviews where I feel like people are over the one-on-one interviews because a lot of them don't get to the crux of the issue. So many of them are like, you get to know you. Who are you? What's your backstory?
Starting point is 01:43:48 We've heard it all before. Anyone who's tune in to Nick, we know it already. Like, can we get to the crux of the issues, which he gets to do in a panel setting? I mean, here's the other thing, too. Like, we asked him why he, like, he said Hitler was cool. And he's like, he said he thought he was. And it's like, so talent, it's bad. I don't, I like, do you not engage with people with bad opinions ever?
Starting point is 01:44:07 I say, okay, that's dumb, I guess. I like it. Remember, the communists. They're stupid too. And Stalin was evil and communism is evil. We'll tell them to their faces. The people that, you know, really go hard against Nick and do the struggle session and stuff. It's not really about Nick.
Starting point is 01:44:24 It's about them letting the world know that they're a good person. Just like when we had straight. Yeah, when we had straighterade on, the whole point of her debating, the whole strategy she had was, I want you to say something where I can go ahead and say you're a bad person and I'm a good person. And that's the same exact thing that people will do with things. What doesn't work is when she's on and she's like, what about Venezuela? And I'm like, I don't think we should have done it. She's like, you don't?
Starting point is 01:44:48 And I'm like, you think you're going on this like far right conservative. Everything's MAGA show Trump does no wrong. And then we're like, no, Trump does a lot of things wrong. And then they're like, oh, but I'm just here to pretend like you're my enemy. And then they get into this weird problem where they have to disagree with whatever you say in order to because it's tribal. But you're saying things they also have to agree with. I think there were a few liberals that we invited on the show that agreed to. then at the last minute, said no.
Starting point is 01:45:12 And I think the reason was they would be forced to reconcile with their agreement on many conservative issues. And that's one of the reasons they avoid these shows. Because there are issues of fact and truth that are fairly obvious that they're going to end up agreeing on. But more importantly, there's going to be some conservative Trump supporter who's going to say something like, oh, I don't think we should give money to Israel and they're going to agree. And then they're going to have to be explained to the liberals why they agreed with someone
Starting point is 01:45:38 who was far right. Yeah. Because it's really just tribal. I think conservatives have been good at that, especially during this administration, is being critical of the bad decisions of our party versus, you know, liberals, like you said, they're very tribalistic and they equate being wrong with death, basically. And so they refuse to concede in any way, even when it's completely logical. I mean, you do get like the government bootlick is on the right, who any time you say something about Trump, they get really mad at you.
Starting point is 01:46:03 But, you know, it's always going to happen. Let's grab some more. We got Jacob Pauley says, did you guys see the new bill passing through? the Virginia legislature, it reduces minimum sentences for CP grape. Let's just call it what it is. Child porn, rape, and assault of officers and federal officers. Crazy. Christian Heinz posted about it.
Starting point is 01:46:24 Indeed. That was part of what Greg Price was talking about. You know, I am concerned about minimum sentence requirements in general. I do think there are certain, like, rape and child abuse. I'm totally fine with being like it's life. You're lucky if it's life and not death. Should be the wood chipper. Like if you're so true,
Starting point is 01:46:48 the people convicted of this, well, I oppose a death penalty for a variety of reasons, but I certainly understand the sentiment around people who abuse kids. I think I got a better option for in minimum. Absolute sentencing. Any offense against children,
Starting point is 01:47:02 sexual abuse is life in prison. And if you guys want to argue for death penalty, have that argument. I'm saying the minimum is life. Yeah. We're absolutely not without parole. You are gone from society. Thank you, goodbye.
Starting point is 01:47:13 Well, there's no cure for. I propose to the island. I propose to the island. Yeah. The island is we send you to an island. Australia. Have fun. She's a result of that experiment.
Starting point is 01:47:23 We could use Australia. The U.S. should send all our convicts to Australia. Again, they went from European convicts to American convicts. Yeah. Australia's going to be a really great place. Wow. Yeah, what do you think we're wanting Greenland for? Just like, oh, it's strategically important.
Starting point is 01:47:38 That's all window dressing. We want to make a pedophile island. And, but it's going to be amazing. A pedophile island. We already had one that go so well. And it's going to be like the Truman Show where we film and they have to fight. The only thing they can eat is like whale. Yeah, they're just like on dog sleds going around.
Starting point is 01:47:55 It's just crazy. The only thing that we do is we send pedophiles and polar bears. Right. And then just let, you know, see the way. It's only pedophiles and polar bears today. It's a trin sensation. We're going to make it a TV show. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:48:07 James Smith, politics says civil war is most likely to happen, not directly from the deportations, but from the loss of electoral votes, House seats in blue states. Dems are already expected to lose 10 to 13 seats in the 2030 census. It won't matter if we lose in the midterms, and then they erase everything Trump is doing and open the border again. Yeah, literally. Just because on free says, if Republicans do nothing, then it was nice hearing your opinions,
Starting point is 01:48:31 Tim, because the Democrats will put you in prison for spreading foreign propaganda. at least you will won't. At least you will won't. I think you meant to say, at least you won't be alone in there. That's the joke. The joke is that we're all going to be breaking rocks together. So at least I'll have good company.
Starting point is 01:48:48 I've been practicing banging out license plates. I'm getting pretty good. You have laser precision. Yeah, I think the Libtar Gestapo will be happy with my license plate performance. It feels like the same impotence of the government in 2017 with no real goal of like, How are you going to fix the world, guys, now that you have control of the most powerful government of Earth?
Starting point is 01:49:07 What are you going to do? Crickets. 2020 comes by. We're like, we want our guy back in power. He comes back. What's the plan? They're like, we want to undo some damage with ice. Like, okay, fine. Assume that's done.
Starting point is 01:49:19 What's the goal? What, what's the goal? Well, I mean, that is, I mean, that is the goal because, like, with mass immigration continuing, that's how you develop the breathing room to then apply any other policy. Like, everything is downstream from immigration in the West. It was in 2017, there was no downstream, and it was the same lackluster in action. Nothing was getting solved. Like, problems were exacerbating. I think the executive has been much more effective than the first term.
Starting point is 01:49:45 Again, there's, like, a lot to be lacking. That's pretty much what we've been discussing these last few weeks. But, like, I do think there's a big difference between Trump 1 and Trump 2. Yeah. Again, is it like great? Not necessarily. Again, there's a lot of complaints. But I think the ball is moving down the field.
Starting point is 01:50:01 And it's just a matter of now we're going to need to start seeing some 20-yard It's worth pointing out that like the economy was doing really, really, really well under Trump one as well. And that's a big deal for a lot of people. We'll grab some more. We got. Metho says, Tim, the universe is ancient. The sun, a couple billion years old. It's not unprecedented.
Starting point is 01:50:15 It's a cycle. You've lived less than 40 years. It's not even a blink of an eye in the cosmic history. Ah, so pedantic. I'm talking about American history. I'm talking about our lifetimes. I'm not talking about five billion years ago or 40 million years ago. And isn't it something like the state?
Starting point is 01:50:33 The Sagosaurus is closer to us than the Tyrannosaurus and time frame or like that. Literally. Yeah. Yeah. There were tens of millions of years apart. The point is in our lifetimes, we've never experienced this kind of solar activity, which is indicative of a cycle, which does happen every several hundred thousand years. We recognize that.
Starting point is 01:50:50 It's just that in our lifetimes, it's happening, Ron Paul Meme. This is like childlike thinking, like, you know, when you're in school when you first learned about the inevitable heat death of the universe in like 200 billion years and that, like, actually stressed you out. Oh my gosh, it's like, okay, dude, you know. All right, let's, uh... Did you ever cry on New Year's Eve because the year was ending? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:10 Yeah, me too. Yeah, I'm, I'm upset about them up... I was like eight. Yeah, I'm upset about them ending daylight savings time as well, because, like, I actually kind of like it. It breaks up the year. I love setting my clock. Silas says, thoughts on Amelia from Pathways.
Starting point is 01:51:23 What's that? Dude, I keep getting people tweeting at me and Connor to cover this. I'm going to have the, I'm going to have the, like, tap. She's AI, isn't she? Is that what it is? I don't know. I saw some video where she was like talking to King Arthur or something. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 01:51:38 He's on Twitter. And she was complaining about Muslims. A few-kid government-funded educational visual novel. Oh, and people are putting her in anti-Muslim things. Okay, that's it. Nah, I understand now. All right. All right.
Starting point is 01:51:51 Let's grab a couple more here while we're all here and having a good time. So true. Having a good time. 20-something Drifter says I'm a former Minnesota State government employee. Well, I didn't see fraud there. I'm not surprised it's rampant. Easily the most disjointed and disorganized place. The whole damn thing needs investigation.
Starting point is 01:52:10 I think the feds should take it over. It's not a joke. Minnesota? Yeah. They got to ask for it. It's like they flooded the state with people from fraudland and they commit fraud. Frontlandia. All right.
Starting point is 01:52:20 Joel Ketchum says, per Timcast tradition, I'm currently at the hospital with my third kid, first daughter, Jemma Bay, All right. Nice one. Let's go. Welcome to the World Patriots. A lot of work to do. Just lock in as soon as you can start walking and talking.
Starting point is 01:52:36 Figure out gravity. Neglectful sauce says Tim to Nick. What if we magically ethnically cleansed USA so that they were Indian but still believed in the same culture? What a wild take. Think hard, which is literally not what I said. I asked him if everyone in this country magically transformed into Indians and they held all their same views and they were Christians and they loved the founding fathers and the First Amendment, is that a bad country? And I think Nick was trying to avoid getting a bit aggressive on the issue of race and genetics. So he left it as he thinks a white country is better.
Starting point is 01:53:04 My interpretation of what he was saying is that he believes that there is something intrinsic to the genetics of white people that results in certain behaviors and cultural norms that doesn't exist in other racial groups. Do you disagree with that? I, 50-50. I think, and maybe he just didn't articulate it, but when you look at certain cultures, there's going to be some obvious things that guarantee. this to be true. Shorter people have shorter doorways. You know what I mean? Meaning if you replaced every American with Thai people, they're on average, you know, three, four inches shorter, then they're going to construct homes in different ways. There are different styles of architecture based on their bodies. If you, Scandinavians, they're all very tall. You're going to get a
Starting point is 01:53:53 completely different country. That's the obvious thing. The things that aren't so obvious is how does it manifest in terms of behaviors and social cohesion. But I do think it's fair to say that if you look at Japan, there is, I'll put it simply. I think it's nature and nurture are 50-50. I think people are largely driven by their development in the world that is around them. That's why you'll meet someone who's Asian but was born in America and they have a North American accent. They don't have a Chinese accent because nature is more important. That being said, I think, genetics plays a role in other ways that is less likely to express itself culturally, but can manifest can manifest in less perceivable ways, I suppose.
Starting point is 01:54:36 When it comes to people that argue about don't race mix, I don't agree with that because I think a lot about the value of certain racial genetic mixes that might happen in the future that we have yet to see. And I do know that there's like a strengthening of the genome when you introduce multitudes of genetics. It's called hybrid vigor. Hybrid vigor. It selects for the strongest and then passes those on.
Starting point is 01:54:56 I highly, I highly, highly, highly recommend. Well, it's not necessarily a guarantee. It's, it's volatility. Highly recommend. It's volatility. Tell me more. It could go either way. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:07 You could get really bad or really good, but the thing is, the really bad don't survive and the really good does. So with hybrid vigor, you're, you're, you're mixing it up. And then you might get, let's just keep it away from humans for the sake of, you know, tantalizing the demons. Well, I'm just keeping it hypothetical. Like you have, you know, a lemming from, you know, Mexico and a lemming, from, you know, Russia.
Starting point is 01:55:28 When they breed, they could have one retard baby and one super strong, super intelligent baby. Well, natural selection, the retard one doesn't survive and have babies. The strong one does. And so you get hybrid vigor. Is it, and maybe you don't know the answer to this, but is it more likely that people of cross genetics, like different genetics, will have a retarded child? So if the closer you are, like incest, you have a high rate of, I forgot exactly what the reason was I read a long time ago about,
Starting point is 01:55:58 I think the rudimentary way to explain it is there are, in your genetics things that are way too similar, which cause a... A competition? No, no, no, no, no. It's the expression of genes duplicate or something like that.
Starting point is 01:56:12 That's what causes the embryo. Like, your nose gets too big, your jaw falls off, because the geneal will control for nose size, gets doubled up, and then you're like, and you're like... Hills have eyes type shit. No, what was the family that,
Starting point is 01:56:24 the European... royalty? The hapspers. I thought that was. Well, that's why Jimmy Carr had a bit where he's like, you should think the Catholic Church, I'm a Protestant, you should be thanking the Catholic Church for chins
Starting point is 01:56:35 because like in the 12th century, they banned incest. They said it'd be like a six cousin or higher to be able to get married because they were trying to break up the tribal clan nature of Europe. And so when they did that, it saved everyone's chin.
Starting point is 01:56:47 So the Catholic Church was engaged in looks maxing all the time ago. Everybody in Iceland are cousins. Did you guys see in the UK, they were trying to put out propaganda actually encouraging cousins. to marry. Yeah, literally, and they're like gaslighted people
Starting point is 01:56:58 like it's like white people too. I'm like, I think we, I think Gavin McGinn is like this out from the show, Rogan trip quite effectively. Iceland, because it's, doesn't have a lot of to and from, and it's been settled by one group of people. They're mostly related. And there's an app you can download
Starting point is 01:57:13 to make sure you're not cousins. Oh, God. Yeah. I need that. You know what they need. Iceland needs an influx of fresh genes. That's what I've been thinking. Ian.
Starting point is 01:57:22 Is Iceland next? You're a strapping young man. We should buy Iceland. land. Buy it from the Icelanders. Take it with economic prowess. No, I'm just kidding. Just join us.
Starting point is 01:57:34 All right, what we got to you? Polypeer says the baby boom took place in 1950s, the 1957 being the largest birth year in U.S. history. Tim, baby boomers are 56 to 71. There was no baby boom at all in the 1940s. Okay, baby boomer years. The boom happened right up to World War II. 46 to 64.
Starting point is 01:57:52 Yeah, they got back from the war and they were like, I'm not wasting another day. The oldest baby boomers are now at life expectancy. I didn't make this set up. I was reading the research on generations and what's called the mortality shelf or the mortality cliff happens to every generation. When a generation reaches this age,
Starting point is 01:58:07 the mortality rate for the generation skyrockets. So in the next several years, for the obvious reason of, the oldest boomers are reaching 80 years old, Trump is the, I think Trump was 46, right? Yep, he's the oldest boomer. Yeah, and he's 79. That's 79.
Starting point is 01:58:23 That's life expectancy. So what happens, is boomers now are at 60 million because there's natural attrition as time goes on, people die. And the next five, 10 years, they expected to fall down to like 20 million, like rapid death because they're all going to be in their 80s. Yeah, that's why in the United States our fertility rate went negative in the 80s, but the population hasn't started declining until now, at least among Native Americans. So, you know, these things are delayed onset, so to speak.
Starting point is 01:58:49 Exploding tree risk? Oh, yeah, this is happening in Minnesota. Yeah, these trees are exploding because it's getting so cold. Really? They don't literally explode. They crack and pop. As the frozen sap expands and then breaks the... Wow, that's crazy.
Starting point is 01:59:02 Apparently causes problems for, like, deer and stuff. It messes with their migration patterns because they hear, like, popping and stuff going off. And so they just, like, run around. Are the deer retarded? Yeah, it disrupts, like, deer populations. All right, everybody. We're going to go to that uncensored portion of the show
