If you have questions or concerns about your gambling or someone close to you, So we've got some interesting social media posts that have come out from Gab. Apparently, the would-be Trump assassin made several posts defending Joe Biden and attacking many prominent conservatives, which is interesting. What kind of liberal Joe Biden supporter would be on Gab? Only the most fervent anti-Trump, someone who's deeply involved and trying to actively promote a cause to a great degree. Now, the CEO says they're not sure they can confirm this, but it is basically,
Starting point is 00:01:27 it seems pretty close. They're saying law enforcement requested this under emergency disclosure. And so it seems to be the first ever definitive proof that the individual who tried to kill Trump was a Biden supporter. Now, take it for what you will. They're also saying they can't confirm it, but at the same time saying it's definitive proof, perhaps it is. We'll talk about that. And there's a bunch of other news, but it is a relatively wild news day in that the news is, it's one of those days where there's no massive stories, it's a bunch of little stories. And we got now from the media, Kamala Harris is gaining ground among Gen Z, which I plumb don't believe. But we'll talk about that. They keep trying to play this game where they're like, she's the meme queen and she's brat. And it's like, yeah, OK, I don't know

Starting point is 00:03:57 Thanks for having me, Tim. I appreciate it. Absolutely. Who are you? What do you do?

So I'd say that's a pretty good testament to the American dream right there. And you are of the opinion, nay, the view that Gen Z does not like Kamala Harris. I completely am of the opinion. As a first-time voter, I got to say, I think she's turning more voters off than turning them on.
Starting point is 00:04:24 It's so weird that they're like, Gen Z loves her. And I'm like, not at all. No, we're laughing at her. And I think she's going to pull worse than Biden did with the youth because again, she's the laughingstock. Well, we'll get into it. Thanks for hanging out. Should be fun. Libby's hanging out.

Starting point is 00:04:47 Let's get started. Here's the first story. This is big. Shocking social media posts of Trump shooter Thomas Crooks are revealed by social networking website's CEO. Now, what's strange is the language used in that it is unconfirmed but also definitive proof. Take that for what it is unconfirmed, but also definitive proof. Take that for what it is.
Starting point is 00:05:05 It seems to be based on law enforcement requests. This is his account and posts he made. And I think they're just trying to be careful in saying unconfirmed. But let's give you the news and you can draw your conclusions. And I'll stress, it is a strange headline because the Daily Mail is definitively stating these are the posts of the shooter. They said the CEO of Gab revealed posts that he claims may have been written by Donald Trump's, would be a citizen, Thomas Crooks.
Starting point is 00:05:32 And I just want to clarify, like, the games they're playing with how they're wording these things. Torba said on Wednesday that an unnamed law enforcement agency informed him that Crooks may have posted pro-Biden messages on Gab, a platform known for its alt-right users and conspiratorial content. Oh, you love that, don't you? I don't believe that's what he said. I believe they received an emergency disclosure from a law enforcement agency notifying them of these posts for the individual,
Starting point is 00:05:57 which lead him to believe that it was definitive proof, though he could not confirm that was the case. It's weird language. I'm going to stress that for a millionth time. So we have some of these posts. They're all pro Biden. They say in a post from February 2021, the poster applies to an electoral projection with didn't you also think Biden would lose in a landslide? Yeah, I would not be very confident in your election predictions. In another post, the Gab user defended Biden's border policies, saying they don't incentivize human trafficking and linked to a study that compared crime by undocumented migrants with those of legal migrants and
Starting point is 00:06:28 American citizens in Texas. The poster wrote Biden executive orders don't incentivize trafficking as human traffickers aren't interested in citizenship. Likewise, the majority of illegal immigrants are not criminals. And in fact, some studies, such as the one linked below, show lower rates of crime committed by these individuals. I think they're trying to be careful here, but I think the it's a 99 percent that these are the posts from the guy. I think it is obvious that this dude was anti-Trump because he tried to kill Trump. And we're getting this argument that he was he was a registered Republican and he was like and I'm and yeah, a bunch of Democrats voted Republican for Nikki Haley. Yep. That doesn't mean and there are Republicans who don't like Trump. So this is a strange story.
Starting point is 00:07:07 And I will stress this, especially with how the Daily Mail headlines it as though it's a definitive fact, but then goes on to insert every possible caveat imaginable. So I don't know why the Daily Mail is trying to walk the line, right? You don't want to be the news organization that's publishing something as if it's been proven completely. But I do appreciate that Andrew Torba and Gab are coming out and saying like, look, this is the interaction we've had with law enforcement.
Starting point is 00:07:32 This is what they've requested from us because we get no information from the government. I mean, they're not even putting out sort of the like, here's the profile we have created for this person based on what they have. They're really giving us no information, including initially they said he had no social media activity at all.
Starting point is 00:07:46 And then it was like, well, he was on that gaming website. And also maybe it turns out he was like intentionally going on to maybe more conservative platforms to agitate in favor of Biden. Also, even if he didn't have a social media profile, that is a social media profile in itself. That has to be intentional at this point to not have a social media profile. But it's true what you say, because normally these law enforcement agencies would hold press conferences every day and we would keep hearing about it. Just think about with other shootings or the bridge collapse,
Starting point is 00:08:11 you know, it's like every they just keep updating you as to when there's going to be a briefing. Because I try to look busy. No, you're good. I totally think we've had a lot bigger press conferences on more minor stories. And there's been nothing. The only things we've seen is from House Oversight Committee testimonies where they've subpoenaed them to come in person, and obviously that turned into the resignation of the Secret Service Director. Two big things I see here. First of all, this is another example of a media cover-up.
Starting point is 00:08:34 I mean, they constantly try to tell us in the days following, oh, he was just a Republican who was upset with Trump's policies. He was just a crazy guy. And we're like, no, no, no, no, no. This is more than just a crazy guy. Obviously, there's some more behind this. And then a good point that you made, he intentionally went into a conservative safe space, made an account and put very long post out replying. He wasn't in his own territory. This was intentional. I mean, you look at those
Starting point is 00:08:56 posts, they're wordy. These are paragraphs with like articles attached to it. He spent time and was meticulous with us. Yeah. And that's a really good point. Cause I didn't even read some of these. These are in-depth analyses talking about percentages, years. Look it, he's like, the turnout in 2020 election was 66.7%, 2012 it was 55. Now if you do it, blah, blah, blah. This is a guy who was deeply active.
Starting point is 00:09:16 I kind of have a picture in my mind of who he was. He's a very anti-Trump guy, lives in this media world of anti-Trump where they lives in this media world of anti-Trump where they sell these things, and then he wants to go into the right-wing spaces, and he's angry with these people.
Starting point is 00:09:31 He's going after them. Didn't they say that he wanted to kill a bunch of the Trump supporters after he shot Trump? Yeah, because they had that explosive in the car that he didn't set off. Right. I think they were saying that it wasn't operational. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:44 That's what I just saw today. But they were mentioning that he also had plans on just basically shooting everybody. That's why I don't like when they say he missed because he didn't. He hit the Trump supporters that he hated. I think these messages are his. I think it's a fair assessment based on what Gab is saying. And I will stress they did also say in their emails it was definitive proof that he's a Biden supporter. It's like, OK, it's tough. I don't know. But it makes sense. You've got a guy a few years ago. Then he watches the news media and they say all day, every day, Trump is Hitler. He's an existential threat. He must be stopped by any means. And this crazy guy says, OK, what do I got to do? That being said, I do not believe for a moment the story of what happened in Butler, PA,
Starting point is 00:10:22 was literally just crazy guy did crazy thing and got lucky. Not at all. You think that he had people behind him? I mean, there could be weaponized incompetence. I don't know if it was Luke who said that, or I'm stealing credit from somebody else we had on the show. But the idea being that it takes but one person in official capacity,
Starting point is 00:10:41 Secret Service knew there was a threat, Trump's in the holding zone, and they say, hey, do we still have that threat active? And one person goes, no, you're good. But what I had heard was that Trump's team didn't know there was an active threat. So there was a miscommunication somewhere along. Like, it's very weird to me. Did you hear the thing where like Jack was talking about this? Hey, all you true crime fans. This is Mike Ferguson. And this is Mike Morf. And we'd like to invite you to listen to our podcast criminology launched in 2017 we've covered a variety of strange cases from murders to
Starting point is 00:11:11 missing persons some of the cases are ones you may not have heard of other cases we cover are some of the most historic in true crime there are 200 episodes of criminology available to binge on right now and new episodes come out every Saturday night. Subscribe to Criminology Today wherever you listen to your podcast. Secret Service didn't show up for the briefing that morning and so they weren't all on the same frequency. I heard that too, which is insane. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Come on, how is it an accident? That was from my friend, Ron Johnson's report. The Secret Service did not show up for the morning briefing and so they weren't all on the same frequency. And there was a whole bunch of like having to talk to this person or talk to that person. And Cheadle didn't talk to any of the agents on the ground that the night after, like in the hours afterwards. So there is something wrong there.
Starting point is 00:11:50 And we have a whistleblower. Yes, I believe it was Josh Hawley posted it that they denied additional technology, drones and security. I kind of feel like somebody wanted something to happen and there was a an effort to make it. I'll put my tinfoil hat on here and say that I think you're right. I mean, that's a pretty outlandish statement, but I think it's absolutely factual by what we've seen in the past few days. I mean, I think that this was clearly an incompetent action, clearly a misstep, a major, you know, major misstep in Secret Service regards where they have a no-fail policy, and this was a major failure. Obviously, it resulted in resignation, but I don't think we stopped there. I think the House still needs to investigate and it needs to go further than the House. I would expect the FBI to investigate, but I don't know whose side they're
Starting point is 00:12:30 on in the situation. So it's unfortunate. Well, I hope Trump wins. And then Trump's like, OK, figure out who did that. Well, I think Mayorkas should have to come before everyone. I mean, he is ultimately even, you know, you don't say the buck stops with me. It's actually Mayorkas who has already been impeached by the House because he didn't take our national security seriously at the border. Did you see where Ro Khanna questioned Cheadle and said, do you know what happened to the secret, the head of the Secret Service when there was an assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan? Did he resign? And she said, no, he didn't. And Ro Khanna was like, yeah. What are you doing here? What are you doing here? What are you doing here Cheetle? He's going to be at a Bitcoin conference too.
Starting point is 00:13:09 I'm not a big fan of, I don't know if there's any Democrats I'd actually consider as good but Rose is as close as you get. I mean he's at least a thinking person which you got to appreciate. That's something. That's big. I don't trust any of it. I think that's the problem though. There's i don't i don't trust any of it and i think
Starting point is 00:13:25 that's the problem though there's so many americans who don't trust any of these systems and the longer we have this lack of information the longer it cultivates this who do we even look to who do we look for i mean there is this messaging that was coming from the biden administration saying we need to have unity right and yet they have done nothing to try to restore any confidence because you're missing what they meant by unity, right? You watched Biden's speech last night. Biden's speech last night where he said he resigned from the race to unite his party. And for the younger generation.
Starting point is 00:13:54 He said to unite his party. And then he had a whole bunch of rhetoric about, you know, I'm too old. And so now you should bash Trump for being, you know, younger than me, but still, you know, older. So, yeah. But I mean, that was the thing about that. He said that he was stepping down to unite his party. It wasn't about democracy. It was about Democrats.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Yeah. What I thought was huge there is he kept using the phrase pass the torch to the younger generation, pass the torch. They ripped the torch out of his hand. Pass the torch to anybody. They ripped that thing and said, you're done. And he finally gave in. It was definitely a coup. You see the bruising on his face? it. They ripped that thing and said, you're done. And he finally gave in. It was definitely a coup.
Starting point is 00:14:25 You see the bruising on his face? What was that about? I don't know if it's actual bruising, but people are pointing out there's a dark spot on his face and around his eye. Him and Obama got in a fist fight. Or the injury was that he was on the plane and he fell and hit his face. Oh, interesting. And that's why they wanted to rush him to the hospital. Maybe it was a stroke.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Maybe it was a stroke and he fell and hit his face. It's dangerous when old fellas fall. Or maybe somebody made him fall. Well, just look at the comparison. He had just done an Address to the Nation 10 days before that, the 14th and the 24th. The two comparison pictures, if you look at them, completely different, obviously, with having some injuries in the face. So poor guy. Hasn't had a good few weeks. No, he hasn't. I mean, the the real issue for me with Biden is,
Starting point is 00:15:11 you know, the fact that this all could have come out months and months ago. Right. I mean, he I think he's problematic for a ton of reasons. I don't like him, but he also didn't do anything to win him any favors among Democrats. And I think that's why you see this division with Obama. Right. There's this rumor that Obama is going to come out in support of Kamala Harris, but he's just waiting to give Joe his moment in the sun. Right. And really, it's I think that no one wants to be a silly affiliated with the Biden Harris administration because it's just been errors and missteps and intentional evils all the way along, even for Democrats who look at this and say, why did we back you? Why were you our last option in 2020?
Starting point is 00:15:50 Well, you'll remember this. We were calling out Biden's mental cognitive decline when he was running in 2020. Like four years ago, we were saying all this and they're, oh, you can't attack him. He has a stutter. How dare you do that? And now they've come out only because it was bad for polling. They don't care about Joe Biden's health. They don't care about the future of the country. They just care about
Starting point is 00:16:09 the Democrats staying in power. And when they saw the poll numbers, they said they had to switch it around. That was it. Do you guys remember in the 2016 convention, Bernie had some kind of mark on his face? Yeah. People were saying that they thought he got punched or something. I don't know. I just thought it was interesting as we're talking about it.
Starting point is 00:16:26 I looked it up. But going back to your point about Joe Biden's stutter, I was watching, what was it? Fox News pulled the clip up. I think it was The Five. And it was like Joe Scarborough and a bunch of people. And then when they're like, and then Joe said, a young boy with a stutter made it. It's like, oh, I was welling up. And then Whoopi Goldberg was like.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Stutter's a lie. Yeah, there's no stutter. What are you talking about? I never had a stutter made it's like oh i was welling up it's it's a and then whoopi goldberg's like stutter's a lie yeah there's no stutter what are you talking about like i never had a stutter no i mean look back at the 70s when he was running for you know his first term in senate after his whole family got killed or like in the 80s or at any time or when he was out there did he have a stutter when he was five or six yeah or did he have a stutter when he was criticizing uh you know clarence thomas no he did not yeah and there's a difference between a stutter when he was criticizing uh you know Clarence Thomas no he did not yeah and there's a difference between a stutter and a brain freeze and completely just not being able to have conversations with people remember names read off the teleprompter finish sentences finish that's not a stutter maybe you know where he got the bruise you guys it was when he was fighting medicare that's true yeah that's good no I like that it's, remember his stutter as another reason that you probably shouldn't
Starting point is 00:17:26 criticize his speech, right? At one point, his doctor had released this medical report, which they always tried to draw any attention to. And they'd be like, well, he has a raspier voice now, but it's not an issue. He's had a cold for a month and a half. For his whole life, apparently. So if you watch this, can we look at his eyes? He's not looking at a teleprompter.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Oh, no, for sure. The teleprompter is like up on the mantle, apparently. No, we covered this at Postmillennial last night, and I wrote this. And my first sentence was, you know, looking somewhere above him at the teleprompter. His advance team is horrible. But they don't care. He's an afterthought. They gave him the ice cream social.
Starting point is 00:18:00 They shuffled him off to bed. Look at his left chin right here. Wow. Yeah, there's a. Right. Yeah, I agree. It's actually really crazy. Wow. social they shuffled him off to bed look at look at his uh left uh left chin right here wow yeah there's a right yeah i agree it's actually really crazy wow yeah and other people mentioned there's something around his left eye but i'm not sure i see it the chin you can see for sure and that's not covered they probably put they probably put makeup on it too right so that's probably like coming through before yeah yeah i don't know man, man. We can conspiracy theorize two things.
Starting point is 00:18:27 He fell and hit his face or he got hit in the face. Look, he said Saturday to Sunday morning, somewhere in there is when he changed his mind. I mean, who knows what happened? What I find fascinating, too,
Starting point is 00:18:39 is that we're going to go into this Joe Biden lame duck period, right? Because he says he's not resigning. I mean, if you look at his ex account today, it's like basically all platitudes. It's like the worst Hallmark card of all time where he's like pretending. He's one sentence things from last night.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Right. It's super weird. I mean, I don't think anybody knows what to do. And it's sort of the collapse of, you know, what at one point they think they would have tried to carry off as a triumphant political legacy. Yes. Well, two things I think are funny there. So sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:07 No, go for it. One of them is you say the little hallmark sayings he keeps saying. Notice that they're just putting the text because the videos are so bad. Some of them he messed up when he ran off the teleprompter. So they couldn't put the actual video footage. They're just putting the text of the speech on Twitter because nobody's going to catch him on that. The second thing, you talked about this lame duck period. And we were talking about this earlier off camera, but we started seeing that today. Netanyahu was the first world leader to come after Biden's dropped out. They had separate meetings, like three hours apart,
Starting point is 00:19:30 because Kamala's like, I don't want to be in the same room with him. Get me away from Biden. Plus, she had to go talk to the sorority. Oh, yes. That's super. Oh, yeah. Vice presidents are never this involved. No, not until today. But they're trying to set her up to be a takeover.
Starting point is 00:19:42 She has been involved for a week. She's the president. Yeah. They're trying to install her up to be a taker. She's the president. Yeah. They're trying to install her as president without anyone really noticing so that they just can push her into the election spot. Hear me out. Biden has called her the president, I think, like eight times. He has. And he's called Trump his vice president.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Maybe Kamala's taking over as president and Trump's VP. We don't know what's happening. I mean. That would be like in the old days when your opposition becomes the vice president. Wow. That's how it used to be. I think that was actually a good idea. I think it was a good idea, too.
Starting point is 00:20:12 That's how we ended up with George Washington and John Adams. First place is president, second place is vice president. I agree. I think that is a solid idea. Well, then picture Trump as Biden's VP for the past four years. We would have had better standing. We would have gotten things done. Republicans would have had the Senate. years. That would have been, we would have had better standing. We would have gotten things done. The Republicans would have had the Senate.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Exactly. He would have been the president of the Senate. He would have been the tiebreaker. He would have had representation in the executive branch. Yeah, it gives a broader swath of the American people more representation. Let's pull this up real quick and just add this while we can. Josh Hawley says, a whistleblower tells me local law enforcement partners and suppliers offer drones to Secret Service before the rally, but Secret Service declined.
Starting point is 00:20:45 So hold on. You were saying this a moment ago that they they didn't show up to the briefing. That's what we were saying. Yeah, that's right. That's what Jack was saying based on the Ron Johnson report. I mean, this interview, which was killer. I don't know if you guys thought it sounds like they were in on it. I mean, Marjorie Taylor Greene was saying she wants a criminal investigation.
Starting point is 00:21:03 I think there's probably a lot of Republicans, Marjorie Taylor Greene was saying she wants a criminal investigation. I think there's probably a lot of Republicans, Marjorie Taylor Greene, you know, I wonder what Josh Hawley's thinking. And they're thinking they were in on it. Someone was in on it. It's not just some dumb kid who slipped past the entirety of Secret Service, flew a drone overhead, had a range finder. None of that makes sense. You know what this reminds me of? That January day at the Capitol a few years back when they requested assistance and assistance didn't come. This is the exact same thing, and it's a cover-up again. And another example, Sunday of Convention Week in Milwaukee. I know for a fact, because my friends were in the meeting, there was a three-hour volunteer meeting for all of the different Hill staffers, GOP staffers, RNC, you know, convention staffers, they had to come in and have a three hour meeting with Secret Service about how to understand the different color credentials for the week to know that this color gets you to the green room. This color can get you this far.
Starting point is 00:21:51 If there was a three hour intern meeting, a briefing, why was Secret Service not at the briefing the day before that could have, you know, prevented the life of the person that was, you know, I mean, yeah, if they if they stopped that guy three hours before I said, hey, you can't come in, he'd be alive. Exactly. It is amazing to me because they're shifting. I mean, immediately they were shifting blame to local law enforcement. Robert Cheeto was like, well, we secure all kinds of stuff except for that building. Local law enforcement was in charge of like, this has been sort of the narrative. And I, it's hard not to be like, why are you positioning yourself as being like this local Pennsylvania township police police force failed when actually you're also saying you're in charge of everything?
Starting point is 00:22:30 And this is kind of unprecedented way for the Secret Service to behave. Let's pull up this story. We've got this from Sky dot com. Donald Trump could have been hit by shrapnel during assassination attempt. FBI director says that's ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous. You can look at the damage to his ears in two points, indicating it likely was a, I mean, sure,
Starting point is 00:22:52 they're arguing the shrapnel went forward and then through. Shrapnel from what? From what? The teleprompters were intact. This is Christopher Wray pushing Democrat talking points so that you can diminish. And I guarantee you right now, there are a bunch of Democrats going around saying he wasn't shot. Something bounced up and hit him so they can undermine the idea that someone nearly killed him and that he took a bullet for America. Yeah. Joy Reid has been saying that a bunch of the fringier Democrat pundits have been saying that.
Starting point is 00:23:24 And of course, what they've been trying to do this whole week is just push Kamala Harris into the spotlight, make her seem like she's definitely the heir apparent. And I got to say, Democrats have done a really good job controlling this news cycle. And it's been hard to like, get other interesting stories out there. You know, Trump had a great rally the other day. The one was in North Carolina. That was terrific. You know, they're really trying to screw with J.D. Vance. Well, I mostly blame Republicans. Republicans need to stop following the news cycle of The New York Times. And every so often, Republicans will set the news cycle. All that matters is they talk amongst themselves over what matters most. But the news cycle says Kamala. And then all of a sudden, tons of pundits stop. They stop talking about the Trump assassination attempt. Yeah, I definitely understand why there is a need to cover Kamala now. But I think it's obviously being pushed too heavily because they're trying to make something happen really fast.
Starting point is 00:24:21 There's a need to fact check her. There's a need to call out her. I mean, it is news. It's just not the only thing going on. And again, that's why I think they are trying to quickly drum up enthusiasm for her, because I think if they don't get enough support, if they can't really convince people in the first, I would say, 10 days, but let's go with two weeks, then you will see some Democrat come out and challenge her. I mean, what's named Golden from Maine came out today and said he doesn't plan to vote for her.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Well, they're trying to tie up all the delegates before the convention in that virtual roll call thing, which wouldn't that make it... Isn't it amazing how this is all going according to plan for them? It's exactly what they wanted to do. They stuck to the script, yeah. How many months ago were we talking about,
Starting point is 00:24:59 hey, Joe Biden's not on the ballot in Ohio. This makes no sense. Why would they do that? Oh, how well, because of the convention timing. It's like they did that on purpose. So they announced they were going to do a virtual nomination that was just a formality so that they could get through in Ohio
Starting point is 00:25:13 and then they would nominate Biden. Just a coincidence that when he drops out, Kamala Harris, who needs this, is now able to get confirmed without a convention. And all of the stories that we're talking about how Kamala Harris was going to have this happen, it says, you know, the DNC said this was planned since May. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:25:32 It wasn't planned since, I mean, or it was. One or the other is true. And both of them are really bad. They are. And remember, this is the party of democracy. Right. This is the pro-democracy. They're going to save democracy by ignoring the voters from the primary.
Starting point is 00:25:45 You guys saw Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer the other day giggling like little schoolgirls, you know, who just killed their best friend in the woods. Super excited about how Kamala Harris is. What is that analogy? Haven't you heard about that? To the Slender Man thing? Yeah. Oh, I know. But it's just, you're describing them as... Every time there's a group of teens who kill their best friend in the woods. I've never... Which happens.
Starting point is 00:26:12 There's a case that was out in Morgantown, West Virginia, too, very similar. But the Slenderman one, they were like best friends. And they're happy. They like lured a girl out because they were nuts. There's another one in Morgantown, West Virginia. It's a really sad case. What are these girls doing? Look, they're doing exactly what Jeffrey's
Starting point is 00:26:26 and Schumer were doing, which is lying, making stuff up, and trying to push themselves into power. And they said that Kamala Harris, that she earned it. Now that the process has played out. That it was grassroots support, and it's so clearly a top-down,
Starting point is 00:26:40 authoritarian, totalitarian, fascistic undertaking to install this woman as president without any people voting for her ever. She's had zero votes. She couldn't even get votes in the primary in 2020. She had 3% of the vote before she dropped out because she had no support. All of her staff was saying that she was confusing and kept changing her policy positions, and nobody liked her. This woman is untested. She's unvetted and she has absolutely no business being in this position, but they're just going to keep lying and saying that they, that, that she should be there. I have never been so full of hate for Kamala Harris. Yeah. I woke up this morning,
Starting point is 00:27:18 Democrat party. Yeah. Cause Joe Biden, I dislike, but people vote for him in a primary and I'm like, I don't trust the primary process, but people advocated for it. They advocated for the voting for him. And then he wins the primary through their ridiculous superdelegate process. Now I'm sitting here being like, we know they steal it. We know they manipulate. But now they're just coming out and outright appointing someone who no one voted for. And then, Lord help me, you've got these liberal pundits being like, yay, democracy.
Starting point is 00:27:46 And I'm just like, I have never been so full of hate in my life. It is so infuriating. And the other thing, too, that I've noticed is there you have the situation, too, where it's very hard to, like, break through to the mainstream media, to the legacy press like they have this all so wrapped up and you saw this too at the rnc when you had um in the fiser forum you had all of the big legacy press you had cnn and nbc and abc and everyone doing their broadcasting from there and fox was there and newsmax was there but these were the guys who could pay the big money to have the big you know big news programs there and then all of the good media was relegated to the panther arena and that was the good stuff that was the stuff that should be streaming this and i understand that the rnc has to make money or whatever but like like put the daily wire in the fiser i can't yeah cast in the fiser put human events daily in the fiser war room
Starting point is 00:28:43 was in the panther building the f. That's where these people should be. That's where these pundits should be. Like, why is Charlie Kirk broadcasting from outside? He should be broadcasting live from the RNC. They should have had one AP pool camera pointing at everything. That's all you need. That's it. And then you give the actual press and podcasts
Starting point is 00:28:59 and personalities the real space inside. The real space inside. Because that's who the people of the RNC, that's who the delegates watch. And that's how you get, that's how you break through this legacy media bubble. So you ended up with a situation where all of these people, you know, who like on CNN, who believe that they are the voice of the people. They believe that they are the real press. They were able to maintain their bubble. And they had no business maintaining that bubble.
Starting point is 00:29:26 It should have been popped. And now we're out here. They're installing Kamala Harris. We can't break through it. And they didn't help us. You know what I mean? So I was actually asked this when we went to the RNC. They were like, some of our guests found out we weren't actually in the secure perimeter.
Starting point is 00:29:42 We were outside because there's no way. Well, it's impossible. We're doing a live audience, right? So we weren't actually in the secure perimeter. We were outside because there's no way. Well, it's impossible. We were doing a live audience, right? So we couldn't do that show. And then the other issue was getting enough passes for everybody. I don't know how we got passes, but shout out to whoever got us passes because I did have them. Oh, I helped Nancy get you guys passes.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Okay. Well, thank you very much because they were just like, Tim, your passes are here. And I was like, they are because we weren't planning on going like actually inside the perimeter. Yeah. We were going to be there for the ancillary outside events. Things went all over the place. But when I was there, I got asked multiple times
Starting point is 00:30:13 by many of the people, where inside is the show going to be? And I said, we're not. And they were like, wait, you're not? Exactly. They were like, didn't the RNC bring you guys out to do a show here? And I was like, no. People actually thought that the RNC gave us space and said, we want Tim Kast IRL at the RNC. It makes a lot of sense. I was like, no, of course not.
Starting point is 00:30:32 We had no community. And then you look at the viewers, the view count of these alternative media, and it's breaking through CNN and MSNBC and these other places. Yeah. And then also our party's constantly like, oh, we need to embrace alternative media. Let's modernize. Let's do that. And then you have the opportunity for the biggest week. we need to embrace alternative media. Let's modernize. Let's do that. And then you have the opportunity for the biggest week and you don't do that, which is so sad. And it was really fascinating to be there at the RNC.
Starting point is 00:30:54 I had never been to a political convention before. And it was really so interesting. And I thought, why, when I turn on the TV, are the main players the same people who have been lying to us for the whole rest of the year? The DNC is going to be nuts. We saw those riots in D.C. We have a reporter heading out to cover the protests. We can't get into the convention. Was it Biden with Netanyahu earlier?
Starting point is 00:31:20 When he said something like from one proud Zionist to another or something like that? I can't remember. He said something like that, right? He said something like from one proud Zionist to another or something like that. I can't remember. He said something like that, right? He said something like an Irish Zionist. Yes. Yes. To an Irish. Yep.
Starting point is 00:31:30 And then. That's really great. Yay IRA. But then you've got Kamala who came out and said that she was raising money for Israel as a little girl. And do you think these far leftists are going to sit by and be like, no, it's fine. Tim, I remember what she was raising money for. And it was the bail to get those people out that were previously protesting.
Starting point is 00:31:46 And I saw some people who are going to go throw firebombs at these exact same people, and I thought something, I'm sorry. And some of those people are killers. They are. That's what I was going to say. I saw that yesterday. I didn't realize. You know that tweet that we keep pulling up where she was doing the bail? That link still works. A reporter yesterday did a testing for $10
Starting point is 00:32:01 just to see, and it still works. That's crazy. We were reporting on that at the Post Millennial in 2020. Andy Ngo was all over that. And we were shocked then. She still stands behind it. That's crazy. Out of all the things people have scrubbed from their Twitter, she is standing by that.
Starting point is 00:32:17 Why should she scrub it? She needs the far left. I'm trying to look for confirmation of this right now, but if I'm not wrong, her stepdaughter has pushed a lot of pro-Palestine fundraisers. So there's a level of like Kamala Harris is about to try and be on every side of every issue. How old is this stepdaughter? She's in her early 20s, I think.
Starting point is 00:32:34 She might be 25 now. Because they push this whole thing that she's the stepmom and she's the mamala and everything. She got married 10 years ago. Yeah. I think both of her kids are in their... She hasn't... Or like her stepkids are in their 20s. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I mean, so she was around, what, during their teen years for a little bit? Mamala. Yeah. And she will bring up these narratives. She got married when she was 49. And before that, what was she doing? Like sleeping her way into California politics.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Well, look, she's a feminist. She's trying to make her life work. No, but the thing is, Kamala Harris is about to try to be on a lot of, every side of a lot of issues, right? Like she was touring abortion clinics, but she's going to come out and say, well, I'm for women and they're bad. She's going to say, oh, well, I'm the tough on crime prosecutor and I can tell Donald Trump what to do. Here you
Starting point is 00:33:13 go, Black Lives Matter rioters. I mean, it's just going to be everything. I think that's like the Obama thing where he kept telling every group exactly what they wanted to hear and every group believed him. That was great. I remember the anti-war people and I was talking to my anti-war theater friends and they were like, no, he's anti-war. And I was like, but he just said that he wants to boost troops in Afghanistan. He's pro-gay marriage. No, he isn't, you guys.
Starting point is 00:33:37 He is just a liar. But I don't think people believe Kamala Harris the same way they believe Barack Obama. Did you see that they're saying Kamala is the most liberal member of Congress or the Senate? Yeah. Yeah, from that GovTrack thing. Yeah, but this has been a talking point for a long time, and it's technically true,
Starting point is 00:33:52 but you need to understand the context. It's that she doesn't engage in any deal-making, so all of the bills she signs on to... That's great for a possible future president. Absolutely. No deal-making. Bernie Sanders is the furthest left politician we probably have, other than AOC maybe.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Well, actually, he used to be, but now he's like number four. But the reason they don't say he's the most liberal is because he negotiates with conservatives and you'll find him on bills that are slightly moderate because he says to them, I'll vote for you if you vote for me.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Kamala does not do that. Wow. But did you see the, she was interviewed and she was asked about this. You're called the most liberal. I'm watching and I'm like, she's Dr. Hibbert.
Starting point is 00:34:29 She's Dr. Hibbert from the Simpsons. They go, yeah, you, right. He says, you've been criticized
Starting point is 00:34:35 as the most liberal member of Congress. And this was, this had appeared on a website and she goes, I'm like, why, why,
Starting point is 00:34:42 why are you laughing? You want four years of that? Come on, people. Oh, heaven help me. And she didn't deny it. I don't want to just give her a Venn diagram of her liberal policies, right?
Starting point is 00:34:50 With a yellow school bus. Right, there you go. This is an interesting question I have for you, Brylin. Solar, solar yellow school. Yes. Because Simpsons certainly still does exist, but do you understand the Dr. Hibbert reference? I don't, no. Dr. Hibbert, because I don't know if he's still on the show anymore because the show's so old,
Starting point is 00:35:03 but he laughs inappropriately. Oh, okay. And so Herbert, because I don't know if he's still on the show anymore because the show's so old, but he laughs inappropriately. Oh, okay. And so this is in the 90s. Yeah, he walks in and he's like, you've got cancer. That's Kamala Harris. Oh, it is. Yeah, you ask her a simple question like, what's your tax policy? What?
Starting point is 00:35:19 It exists within the context of what it exists in. Yeah, why are you laughing, lady? I think that is a direct quote. That's a direct quote, yeah. That's her famous one. It's so unfortunate. It should exist in the context of what it should in. Yeah, why are you laughing, lady? I think that is a direct quote. That's a direct quote. That's her famous one. So unfortunate. It should exist in the context of what it should exist in. It does.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Hey, I just found this article about the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which is the group that she obviously was supporting with the Bell money. Here are just a few examples. I won't read them all. In April of 2022, a guy named Sean Michael Tillman was released thanks to the Minnesota Freedom Fund. One month later, he shot a man six times. That's right.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Thanks, Kamala. George Howard was in jail for domestic assault in August 2021. In August 2021, he was bailed out by the Minnesota Freedom Fund. 18 days later, he shot and killed a man in a fit of road rage. One more, Christopher Boswell, twice convicted rapist. He got out thanks to the Minnesota Freedom Fund that Kamala Harris is still raising money for as a city vice president
Starting point is 00:36:09 he promptly strangled another woman the same day and said he would do something to her I kind of feel like conservatives want to sit on their porch in a rocking chair sipping on some lemonade while their kids play in the grass with a soccer ball or something. And then they want to, you know, just get the work done, come
Starting point is 00:36:29 home, see their family. And it feels like liberals just want to party and have things paid for for them. Look, man, there's way too many millennial liberal types who are like, I don't want work. And there's way too many conservatives who are like, ah, another good hard day of work. I'm just like, it's becoming this polarized. Oh, it is. What a stark contrast, too. I mean, that's like the generation that's coming up when they're like expecting that of like, oh, I'm just going to sit there and everything's going to be paid for me. They're going to bribe my
Starting point is 00:36:56 vote every time. I'll vote for whoever cancels my student debt or pays for my housing. But you're a part of this generation, right? I mean, is this how you feel? Because I have the perception that it's divided. Let's pull this story up first before we get into that we've got this from axios exclusive poll oh we trust axios harris opens up early edge with young voters take a look at this if 20 if the 2024 election were held today who would you vote for if the candidates were biden or trump 53 for biden if the elections were all today who would you vote for if the candidates were kamala harris trump and kamala's got 60 okay now you're you're a young conservative man i don't think that you represent
Starting point is 00:37:32 all of gen z but what are you seeing well i don't represent all of gen z but i've been fortunate enough to talk to a lot of gen z and i've constantly seen both sides of the aisle people are frustrated um regardless of if you're even like, OK, I'm abnormal. And, you know, my age, most 18 year olds aren't politically interested or involved. But even ones that aren't interested or involved, they're affected by this. Like I'll say last week in Milwaukee, every single Uber driver I had was a college student taking a second or third job to make ends meet. And a lot of them were like, oh, like, I disagree with the MAGA hat you have on. But like the economy was better with him.
Starting point is 00:38:05 And I was like, it was, right? It definitely was. You didn't have to have two jobs. Exactly. Which is so sad. So I think that this is BS. And I absolutely think that this is something that we're seeing. I'm back again.
Starting point is 00:38:16 So for you, is it like 2019 was a hot year. 2020 was pretty bad. So you're young. Sure. And I have to imagine like with your family, you're going out to eat more. You're going to the movies more. When you were getting older into the,
Starting point is 00:38:30 now into the Biden administration where you notice things, these things with your family where your parents are like, we can't afford to do it. You know, we got to tighten our belts. Well,
Starting point is 00:38:37 then I'm going into college, you know, after this next school year, you remember graduating from high school, you know, renting your first apartment, like becoming financially independent, actually going into the age of like attempting to, you know, go on school, renting your first apartment, becoming financially independent,
Starting point is 00:38:45 actually going into the age of attempting to go on road trips with your friends, just go out and eat dinner with your friends. Very simple things that you should be able to do as a freedom-loving American, and you can't do because, and again, it's constantly in the news that the economy is bad, and it's hard enough for my parents and grandparents' generation. Picture how difficult it is for my generation getting a start in this economy. Well, if it makes you feel better, had the 2008 crash there you go so uh how old i was i was 20 okay as we went into that yeah and
Starting point is 00:39:14 so when i finished grad school and i was like oh goody i i tried to get a job as a dishwasher and i could not because good luck finding a job everybody needed needed one. The people who are slightly older got laid off from their jobs. So they started dipping lower and lower into lower tier jobs. And then I'm like, but I played guitar on the subway. I made it work.
Starting point is 00:39:31 It worked out. And then millennials got to experience a second. And fortunately, Gen Z got to experience their first. Yes. Although I think Gen Z was actually around for the first one too, just not experienced it in the same way. Their parents experienced it.
Starting point is 00:39:41 I was two, so yeah. I mean, that's how I feel about the 2008 crash because I was in middle school at the time. And I think there are a lot of like, there is the tension in the same way their parents i was two so yeah that's how i feel about the 2008 crash because i was in middle school at the time and i think there are a lot of like there is the tension in the household even if you're not super engaged you're at an at an age where you're becoming aware and you know that ultimately these are consequences that will affect your family i mean i know a lot of people whose parents couldn't help them pay for college because you know of the 2008 class where they had to lose the like move from where they live because they had to sell their house because couldn't afford anymore i I mean, people remember the effects
Starting point is 00:40:07 of challenging economic times, even if they themselves are not part of the tax base yet. Yeah. I had, I think, four part-time jobs. Wow. And that was, that was like how I was doing stuff. And I was doing my art and stuff. So. Well, here's a non-economy example. I mean, I know the numbers on the screen, and this is Axios again, like Tim said, we can't really trust him. These are some people telling us that Kamala's not really the borders are, but the numbers on the screen actually are better for Trump than 16 and 20. And I think a big part of that is my generation, you said you're in middle school for recessions and stuff. I was in middle school when COVID hit. And that really radicalized my generation to being like, wow, big government is bad. Like COVID was big government at its worst. Big government during COVID shut me out of school for a year and a half, told me I was an evil, horrible human being if I went and visited grandma for Thanksgiving dinner, that I had to strap a diaper to my face anytime I walked outside. I could pull it up to eat, you know, but that was fine. We really was like, oh, wait, hold on. This is kind of crazy. And I remember so many people in my class, none of this makes sense.
Starting point is 00:41:04 And like, I'm from Alabama, like, you know, majority of my class is conservative, but I had people during then, like, you know, we're on, you know, Zoom chats and stuff for class. And they're like, this is a little crazy that I can't go to church, but the strip club down the street is open. And these are people that their parents voted for Biden,
Starting point is 00:41:18 you know, at that point, they would be voting for Biden to just go around. And they're like, whoa, wait, why do we want big government? And I'm like, exactly, small government's great. And so I think the polling is better because of that. I think COVID helped us by radicalizing. But I think you're going to have to pony up and admit it. Kamala Harris is memeing with Gen Z and Gen Z is with it. They take one look at that face and they're like, that's cool. Let's say this isn't Kamala. This is
Starting point is 00:41:42 some staff or some intern that's in their sophomore year of college somewhere that just found out what Brad is. Kamala doesn't even know. She probably has a TikTok account. and stuff like that. And he was like, I'm going to try this. And it worked. And so him and I had a conversation a few months ago. He was waving his hand to the air. He was like, Brylin, what can we do to win Gen Z? And I said, Mr. President, it's simple. Like, go to mainstream social media platforms. True Social's great, but my generation's not on True Social. You're talking to an
Starting point is 00:42:19 echo chamber. You have to go to places where young people are. And so he rejoined Instagram a week or two after that. And since then, he's on TikTok, he has the fastest growing TikTok account in TikTok history. I promise you, we can revisit this next week. Kamala Harris will not beat his numbers because it's young people are like, wait, he's authentic. Like when Biden started his TikTok, you remember this, he pulled up the screen. He was like, good morning, Gen Z, pause. I'm so happy to be on your For You page, pause. And Trump's on there and he's like, he's a selfie video with Logan Paul. He's like, hey guys, what's up? Glad to be on TikTok, You page. Pause. And Trump's on there and he's like, he's a selfie video of Logan Paul. He's like, hey guys, what's
Starting point is 00:42:46 up? Glad to be on TikTok. Vote for me. It's just authentic. Well, and he's making YouTube content. He was doing that golf video the other day. I mean, there is an element of he is just being himself and it's working. Whereas I feel like you're in a better position to comment on this than I am, but I feel like this is
Starting point is 00:43:02 Gen Z or maybe very, very young like tail end of millennial staffers trying to cram Kamala Harris in front of youth voters the only way they think they can and trying to make her relevant. Like you have all seen videos where people teach their like 98 year old grandma's current day slang, right? And they'll say it and like she says cap and you're sort of like, that's so weird and awkward. It's kind of funny. Like it's not authentic. In fact, they're just kind of laughing at her because she seems almost out of place. It's only been a few days since she obviously is top of the ticket now. But just in these short amount of days,
Starting point is 00:43:31 what I've constantly heard from young people is, and this is both sides of the aisle, is we're tired of chaos. And we've constantly seen chaos with the left. We saw chaos with them. They didn't have a nominee to like two days ago. They still don't have a VP nominee. We're the party of stability. And it's very easy to say, listen, and this election is unique. Typically, you have two untested people coming, you know, running for office, and you don't know what a term of either one of them would look like. You know exactly what a Donald Trump administration would look like, and you know exactly what a Kamala Harris administration would look like. So it's very easy to sit down with an 18-year-old who's, you know, in high school like me and say, listen,
Starting point is 00:44:01 do you want stability or do you want chaos? Clearly, Kamala's a chaos president. They're trying to Obama Kamala, and you can't. They're trying to Obama Kamala. No, Obama has got charisma. Obama knows how to stand on a stage. That'll be a thing. Let's compare Obama to Ron DeSantis in terms of charisma. And with all due respect to Ron, who's done some good things with his career, we talked
Starting point is 00:44:26 about this when Ron was announcing his candidacy. He's on X-Space going, I'm here to lead the great American comeback. The smile was the worst. I'm like, wow. Barack Obama's on stage in front of thousands of people in Chicago with a scowl and he's like, we are going to lead America to freedom. Just something like that. Everyone's screaming and cheering, and he's shaking his fist.
Starting point is 00:44:48 That guy knows how to rally a crowd. Sure. And so I can understand, back in the day, I remember when he was running, he was the celebrity candidate. He was the cool guy, and they played that up, and it did work with young people. Not that young people turn out in massive numbers anyway, but it did work to a greater degree than usual. You can't do that with Kamala. She is a cackling fiend. That's what she is. What is she going to say? Like, you fell out
Starting point is 00:45:12 of a coconut tree. Like, what's her thing going to be? It's not, yes, it can. That's what it is. I mean, that's all it is. Yeah, it's crazy. What did Poduis, is that what Jill Biden said? Poduis? Yeah, Podway. What did POTUS, is that what Jill Biden said? POTUS? Yeah, POTW.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Remember, Jill Biden said CSA POTW or whatever. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Oh, we should stop trying to make politicians that don't speak Spanish at all speak Spanish. I know. What a crazy concept. I know I'm being radical here, but I just feel like everyone would appreciate it. I think Kamala is struggling with this image, right? That's why it is rapidly evolving. Like they're trying to make her both
Starting point is 00:45:49 memeable and this prosecutor who's going to take on Trump and then she's going to, you know, pivot to being, I don't know, a TikTok date. Like it doesn't make any sense. They took the video down. They took it down? Of course they did. Yeah, of course, of course. They can't, they can't let you do that. Somebody said this earlier. Don't you think Kamala would be a really great daytime talk show host? She could sit there. Well, she could laugh and talk, but she can't run. I don't know
Starting point is 00:46:13 what part of me is like, she could sit in the Oval Office or the situation where we'd be like, we're going to make this decision. She's going to be like, that's hilarious. No, I don't think so, because if she was a daytime talk show host, she'd be sitting down next to a guy and he'd be like, I have cancer. And she'd go. Hey, all you true crime fans.

The best thing that happened for Kamala Harris's image during the 2020 campaign was that Maya Rudolph played her on SNL and actually made her sort of funny and not charming, but like made her into almost a likable character, like bizarre. You don't relate to her, but there was something there. The real Kamala does not even hold a candle to that. And that's a bad sign for a campaign that's now trying to rapidly throw this together, you know, basically before the election, because they know they're going to secure the. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you this is pretty bad like i don't know they've made better ones of biden and stuff this video is made for me
Starting point is 00:47:44 my generation and no part of that was like, I'm voting for her. I'm like, get her away from me. I mean, the hard thing, though, is that you you were apparently like died in the world conservative over there. So we need we need to ask the Democrats and independents. I would love Harry Sissons take. Yeah, I know he's bought and paid, but yeah, he's OK. I'm sorry. You want to see funny? I'll show you this. I've been on my own for long enough. Maybe you can show me how to love.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Maybe. You know, there was a whole channel on YouTube of Trump singing pop songs like this. And they would do them for Obama, too. I mean, they were funny. Right. Oh, I should. What's a good Obama song? He did Call Me Maybe.
Starting point is 00:48:24 That was the first one I ever saw. And it was just so funny. I don't. The other thing is, and you talked about this. Trump was an original influencer. He he the well. Don't ask me. I'll never tell. I look to you as a bell. And out here in my way, I trade my soul. That's not even that good, and it's got 50 million views. I mean, that was early day stuff. The Trump singing blinding lights is like, it's actually really good. Let me, let me, here we go.
Starting point is 00:49:04 I'm blinded by the lies. I can't sleep until I feel your touch. I'm sad. I'm drowning in the lies. Yeah. That was three years ago? No, this is not the original video. This is someone reposting it.
Starting point is 00:49:24 I was going to saying this art form has evolved over the years uh yeah it's miss what's the guy's name um i gotta get his his name to give him credit it's uh he put it in the video where is it maestro zicos credit to him i think trump has uh an influence on culture that Kamala Harris couldn't. Right. She just doesn't have it. If she did, she would have done better in the primary. Someone would have discovered her by now. It's not like she has been in the public eye for a long time. And I think this is something that I really credit Gen Z for. I think they can sniff out frauds. Right. Like she does. Can't make them like people. Yeah, she does. She does. Super fake.
Starting point is 00:50:04 And yeah, if she had any draw. What do we have? I would have drawn it by now. Like she already ran for president and it didn't go well. No. And she actually got shuffled. In my opinion, she got shuffled right to the back of the Biden administration early in early days. So I love this one, though.
Starting point is 00:50:20 This is Ryan James Gerduski. He says this is how Democrats think about their fellow Americans and how they they select a vice president quote let's just face it there's a lot of sexist racist white dudes out there in america who don't like trump but just need a little extra validation one person familiar with the campaign's thinking told nbc news and bringing one of the people mentioned onto the ticket helps validate her among those constituents wild apparently her entire shortlist is just white guys. But it's also a random person we don't know. They've not quoted anybody.
Starting point is 00:50:50 And this person is psychic and understands what Kamala's campaign is thinking. I'm sorry, dude. I'm not interested in whatever that is. But they've normalized that whole one person familiar one sort of. Which is crazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Look, what they do is they will say something like a source close to Donald Trump's office said he was planning on kicking a dog. And that source close to his office is the homeless guy who's in the alley close to the building. And they're like, but we're telling the truth. Who has a dog? The homeless guy has a dog and he's kicking it. Well, I'm just saying like they use these manipulative phrases.
Starting point is 00:51:28 One person familiar with the campaign's thinking. I'm familiar with the campaign's thinking. And I think Kamala wants to kick a dog. I think probably Kamala already did kick a dog. To your point about the 2020 primaries, I think you're absolutely right. I don't know if you remember. It was down to Biden and Bernie. And remember that last CNN?
Starting point is 00:51:47 They forced him out. They did. They forced him out. It wasn't Kamala on the stage. She had been gone well. Remember, Tulsi got her to leave after that, you know, horrible debate.
Starting point is 00:51:55 After she destroyed, yeah. Tulsi Gabbard destroyed Kamala Harris. Yes. And then to your point about the influencers and Trump understanding that, he really, like, it's not something
Starting point is 00:52:02 we have to convince him. It was like, we were talking about the convention, the idea that I pitched last year when Ronald McDaniel was still in charge and didn't get anywhere
Starting point is 00:52:09 and then Watley actually took it on and we did it because Trump actually let us do it. He let us spearhead it. We flew up 100 influencers to the convention last week
Starting point is 00:52:17 and they had a suite on the top floor and they got to sit and cover the convention. It had hundreds of millions of views. Trump let us do that. That's something
Starting point is 00:52:23 in the past, R&T was like, ah, you know, we're not going to go there, we're not going to touch that. Was that like the creator's hub thing? It was the creator hub, yes. Trump let us do that. That's something in the past, R&T was like, ah, you know, we're not going to go there. We're not going to touch that. Was that like the creator's hub thing? It was the creator hub, yes. I was doing that too.
Starting point is 00:52:30 I didn't see it in there. Yeah, it was really cool for him to get in. Again, it was an immediate, I pitched to Watley. Watley was like, let me check with Trump soon. That was your idea? It was mine, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Very clever, Ryland. He called back maybe 30 minutes later. Trump loves it. How quick can we get it? Because you know what's funny? I got invited to apply for credentials for the creator thing and my friends in press did not have
Starting point is 00:52:50 floor access, but I did have floor access. You get to go down for your 30 minutes? Yeah. And it was very cool. Did you go up to the suite too? Yeah, yeah. I did some work up there. He's making sure you had a good time.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Did you get enough water? I'll send you a survey later.'s making sure you had a good time. I'm feeling good. Did you get enough water? I'll send you a survey later. We're doing it again in four years. When I met Trump for the first time at Mar-a-Lago, it was Bruce Witz who introduced me to him. And then he was like, Bruce Witz was like,
Starting point is 00:53:16 Tim's got one of the biggest channels on YouTube. And then immediately Trump goes, you know who the biggest influencer in the world is? And I went, Joe Rogan. And then he was like, me. That's what they say. They say it's me. And I was like, you know, you're right. And I was like world is? And I went, Joe Rogan. And then he was like, me. That's what they say. They say it's me. And I was like, you know, you're right.
Starting point is 00:53:27 And I was like, oh, yeah. That's a good impression. Actually, did you do it? To him, no. But I was like, actually, yeah, he's probably right. He posts one thing, and the entire media apparatus is just, like, on it. Right. It's like pigeons in Central Park when you throw out half a stale bagel.
Starting point is 00:53:43 You know? And they go nuts. I was with Sarah Sanders last week, one day around lunch. And we were talking, just kind of reminiscing on White House days. And she was like, yeah, I never had to send out these press releases. You know, they have to speak on Biden's behalf. She was like, Trump would do the talking and I would just go defend him. You know, he would just tweet it. That was the news for the day.
Starting point is 00:53:59 Immediately, he would sit there and watch the Kaiwan train, you know, sipping a Diet Coke. So, also for the impressions, the amount of times that I've seen people walk up to him and do an impression in front of him is wild. They have so much courage to do that. And he always loves it. You know how he is, but you need to do it next time. No, I don't know. I wouldn't do that.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Let's check out this story. As we're talking about how could Kamala Harris possibly win from SCNR, nearly two thirds of voters believe cheating will occur in the 2024 election. More than a quarter admit they would consider engaging in illegal voting to help their preferred presidential candidate. Okay, I mean, that's the news, right? What would you call it if a quarter of the nation is openly saying that they will or want to cheat to win power? Is that just the way things are? It's in a sad set of affairs.
Starting point is 00:54:45 That's criminal actions there. And also two-thirds, that's well, they'll say that Republicans believe this, you know, quote-unquote brainwashed lie, but two-thirds is well more than just Republicans that think that we don't have fair and free elections. The party of democracy really needs to step up on securing this election here.
Starting point is 00:55:02 I mean, come on. Well, the Democrats make this claim. It's the weirdest thing, too. Like when I'm talking to like a liberal family member yeah and they say yeah well republicans are just trying to stop people from voting and i go who and they're just like well they're trying to get people off the voter rolls and i was like dead people what are you talking about what are they getting off the voter rolls like well they go through and they remove names and i'm like can't you just go and register to vote like shouldn't you just check your registration periodically let me say this they try to say it and register to vote? Like, shouldn't you just check your registration periodically? Let me say this. They try to
Starting point is 00:55:26 say it's difficult to vote. I turned 18 two and a half weeks ago and I registered on my 18th birthday. I timed it. A minute and 42 seconds. Yeah, it's not hard to do. Yeah, and also, there was just one box to check if I was a U.S. citizen. No proof that I was a U.S. citizen. They didn't ask for birth certificate or anything. I literally checked the box.
Starting point is 00:55:43 So, that needs to be addressed. But also, a minute and 42 seconds. They're always like, oh, it's so difficult. They're trying to make it so hard. No. It wasn't hard when I registered in whatever it was, 1993. They registered for me. And then I got jury duty.
Starting point is 00:55:55 Oh, wow. Yeah, when I got my ID, they just registered me. I guess it's like on the form or something. It's like when you're getting your license, it's like you're registered now. You can register at the DMV in a lot of states. Don't you guys have to register for selective service too? Oh, yeah. I do that too.
Starting point is 00:56:06 It's a whole form. Which, again, this is a cool story. I was back home for a night or two, and it was around my birthday. I had a birthday party. I was sending the register in a vote. One of my friends had turned 18 around the same time. And you could tell the wheels were turning in his head. He goes, wait, I have to do selective service too, right?
Starting point is 00:56:21 And this is a guy that is not the biggest Trump supporter. I'll just say that. And I was like, yeah, yeah, you actually have to. I'll send you the link. It's pretty simple, blah, blah, blah. And he goes, I could actually serve on the front lines. I was like, I mean, that's what that means. He was like, no, no, no, Biden.
Starting point is 00:56:37 If anybody were to send me to the front lines, it would be him. And I was like, you have a good point. So again, this is somebody that his whole life is football. He plays Fortnite every night. I love that recognition. But it clicked. I didn't have to tell him. That's the war guy. He's the war guy.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Yeah, but come on. Deep down, we're all excited to see Harry Sisson on the front line. Oh, my goodness. He would be doing amazing propaganda. Maybe that was part of his agreement. Maybe it was if he tweets this entire time, they put him, you know. People of privilege sometimes get to go to do special positions. It's going to be Tom Cruise in Edge of Tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:57:05 He's going to be like, look, I'm just an Instagram guy. And they're like, that's why we need you on the front line. We need you on the front line to sell this war to the American people because they trust you. And he's going to be like, oh, crap. Well, I'm sure he'd be happy to serve under, you know, President Kamala Harris. He's a huge fan, I've heard. It took him seven minutes to endorse her, to turn his back on Biden. Seven minutes.
Starting point is 00:57:26 He put out one post and was like, Biden's the defender of democracy. And then the next post, he was like, all hell, Kamala Harris. Seven minutes. So the check hit very fast from the Kamala Harris for president campaign. Yeah. What a grifter. Really? I have to just believe that Gen Z doesn't care at all.
Starting point is 00:57:43 You know, of course, there's a handful of people, you're here, obviously, you wrote a book even, and you seem to know a lot about what's going on, you're very active. But most Gen Z is probably just like, huh? You know, I agree with you to an extent, but I would say this. Unfortunately, we're being forced to care. Like we're being thrown into this thing of we're trying to stay apolitical, we're trying to stay away from it. And it keeps hitting us, whether it's the pocketbooks or like in life or realizing like, hey, next year I could be, you know, serving on the front lines of war. It's really forcing us to say, even if you don't support either side, at least pay attention.
Starting point is 00:58:13 And I think we're seeing that. That's why we're seeing so many young people register to vote, which is going to be a major shift this time. Like 53% of registered voters as of last week are Gen Z or millennials. And unregistered voters skew Trump. Yes. Republican. Yes, big time.
Starting point is 00:58:28 I was just going to say, when I was 18, the only things I cared about were art and parties. No, I was voting. I voted for, like, in the, whatever it was, but. I voted for Obama. I voted for Bill Clinton. I wasn't old enough to vote for Bill Clinton, but I remember when I was little,
Starting point is 00:58:43 they had us do a mock poll of like when I was in grade school and it's really about they're doing the poll to see what your parents influencing on you but I remember I think I don't know how old I was I must have been 20 I voted for Obama and I was like well I hope he ends the wars you know beep and then as soon as he gets elected
Starting point is 00:59:00 he's like I'm gonna go blup kids and I was like ah crap I remember being totally committed to be like my first vote's gonna be for a libertarian president that was not the case uh the thing is i i think you're touching on something that's really important which is like young people are kind of forced to pay attention in part i think because our media has realized how fear-mongering people and scaring them about politics all the time keeping that like anxious attention is working for their bottom line but i also think that like the this is a different culture i think our culture is much more politically oriented than than generations past to
Starting point is 00:59:35 our detriment like libya's saying when she was young she was focused on art and parties but that's kind of cool right like you were supposed to have life outside i mean maybe not you you've picked a path but like it is good to have institutions of culture that people are passionate about that they want to pour into. So we have a vibrant culture in this country. If it has to be constantly fighting over, like, please don't send me to war. Please let me, you know, be able to have a secure financial future. Then, of course, you have to kind of fall in line on these party politics, at least in the American system as is. My friend shouldn't have to be stressing about serving on the front lines next year instead
Starting point is 01:00:05 of going off to college, which is just a crazy concept to fret over. To your point about the mock elections, that was actually what got me interested in politics. So the clip that I love, and I know it's one of your favorites, is when Trump and Hillary were debating, I was 11, and happened to be walking through the living room at the same time when he said the line, well, you'd be in jail. And I was like, oh, I love this. Like this guy is not reading the consultant like memos. Like this is real. This is genuine. Like he's authentic. And so sort of paying attention. And I was SGA president of our lower school at the time. And we had a mock election in the library
Starting point is 01:00:36 and like Trump won wide margins against Alabama who shot. But I was like, this is so cool. Like they're like actually casting their vote. And so somehow that turned into this. But again, it's just young people paying attention. And it was a clip. I mean, that was a 15 second clip of Trump, but it brought me into a seven year career. Wow. Now, uh, nobody trusts the election and the expectation is just that it's going to be a bunch of cheaters cheating. So I don't, I mean, and we've been saying this for three years. We've been saying this since January 6th, what will happen after this election? Why would the Democrats or the Republicans accept the results? And assuming they don't, then what happens afterwards? Great, great question that nobody's talking about because everybody's too afraid to.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Well, it's not just that. It's like, does anybody know? Nobody knows. We have no idea. Well, it depends on it depends on, I guess, in part what the leaders do. Right. Well, we don't know who our leader is. I mean, Kamala Harris, if you know, if she's the one who loses out or whatever, she's the same one who said that the protesters should not stop and the rioting should not stop in 2020.
Starting point is 01:01:34 She said that on late night TV. Trump has been looking incredibly presidential. I mean, in a way that he didn't even in 2020. He's maintained his calm. He's very cool and collected. It's been sort of impressive to watch that. So it kind of depends, I think. Yeah, I have no idea. It's really hard to say. And I think that's one of the things that I feel wary about with speculating because you don't want anyone to start to panic too early. I think there was a panic too early.
Starting point is 01:02:06 There's plenty of time for panic. Don't worry about it. Don't forget your towel. I really think that the DNC is in a certain amount of chaos. And I think that the next couple of weeks leading up to this roll call will be fascinating. I suspect they'll be able to install Kamala Harris, but I don't think that we'll do them any favors with their party, with their members in Congress or anything else. So BLM doesn't like it.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Right. Which is so interesting to me. That's fascinating. In the past couple of weeks, I agreed once with Taylor Lorenz and once with BLM. The world is over. Was it the Blue Anon article she wrote? I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:37 No, but I mean, look what's going to happen to the DNC. The far left is going to lose it and they're going to try and storm the gates and they're going to attack the DNC. To your point about the protest earlier in Kamala's quote, you know, back in that election, our leader, our nominee got shot in the head and we didn't have a single protest, like not a single one. And they tell us that we're going to go riot and blow things up. And we're just like, he literally got shot in the head.
Starting point is 01:03:00 Let's have our convention and a proper nominating process. And then yesterday in D.C., they rioted, stole a flag and torched it and destroyed it. On government property. Didn't they raise Palestinian flags? Yes. In our nation's capital? Yes. And where's our police?
Starting point is 01:03:14 Yeah. Pretty funded. They were just hanging out. There were a bunch of, you know, centrist Democrats, let's say, who joined to vote against or vote in favor of this resolution to condemn Biden and Harris for the border crisis. I mean, I think you're starting to see a fracturing in a way that they are not prepared to handle. Yes, there was an immediate coalesce around Kamala Harris, but long term, the party is forever damaged by, you know, I would say the entire Biden administration, but definitely since January when he was like, I'm definitely running and everything's fine.
Starting point is 01:03:45 It's a cult, man. Let me tell you this. You had a primary. Ron DeSantis supporters were ripping apart Trump supporters. Haley supporters were ripping apart DeSantis and Trump supporters. Vivek Ramaswamy had people who were very amicable and liked Donald Trump, but were hoping that Vivek could get in. You had DeSantis supporters on X saying, F you, you trump supporters i will never vote for this man
Starting point is 01:04:06 and then a few weeks later being like you've won i i admit it i'm gonna have to vote for this guy and i don't want to and they're like he's in a cult and i'm like the dude hates trump yeah he he just you're a cult and you you are marching in locks up on authoritarians who have now put in kamala harris without a single person voting for her. And this guy's like, well, I don't like Trump, but at least people voted for him. And you're like, he's an occult. This is what we're up against right now in this country in our election. Cult behavior was that 12-hour period where every single Democrat somehow got behind her that quickly. So fast.
Starting point is 01:04:39 And then started making stuff up about how she was the grassroots candidate. Just crazy. She's been grassroots for six hours. I thought it was crazy when Schumer was like, well, the process has played out. Sir, it has been maybe 48 hours. This is your process? And that's the thing, too. It's like people are saying, you know, Obama hasn't endorsed Kamala.
Starting point is 01:04:57 All Obama has to do is endorse the process. Oh, yeah. Let's pull this, sir this from the New York Post. Badly understaffed park police assaulted by mob of thousands pelted with poop at pro Hamas riot in D.C. Union chief.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Vote for Kamala if you want people throwing poop at cops. That is horrifyingly disgusting. They had to they they like to all the cops.
Starting point is 01:05:20 I mean, it's it's so fun that this battle between foreign nations is playing out in America's soil. Really love that for's so fun that this battle between foreign nations is playing out on American soil. Really love that for us. This is what the left does. Meanwhile, they're saying that there's one video I watched where a guy's like, you know, what do you think happens if Trump wins? Or do you want Trump to win?
Starting point is 01:05:38 The lady's like, well, if Biden wins, the Proud Boys are going to come out and start shooting people. And he's like, the Proud Boys? And she's like, yeah. And he's like, do you think that all of these people are Proud Boys? going to come out and start shooting people. And he's like, the Proud Boys? And she's like, yeah. And he's like, do you think that all of these people are Proud Boys? Like, no, but they'll come out. The left is doing it right now. They've been doing it for years. There's not a Proud Boy in sight.
Starting point is 01:05:53 There's not. I talked to Tommy Tuberville yesterday, who's my Alabama U.S. senator, former football coach, and his Capitol office faces the direction of Union Station. And they texted me a picture of this, the Palestinian flag being raised and you can see it from Capitol Hill sitting in the U.S. Capitol as a sitting United States senator watching the Palestinian flags being raised and they could do nothing about it that's so sad but it's not an act of terror it's not no not at all I mean in Congress itself what was it last year the year before you had Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris raising the Ukrainian flag in Congress but But we're not occupied.
Starting point is 01:06:25 It's not a hostile takeover. Don't question anything, Libby. Did you see how Zelensky was like, oh, I'd be very happy to work with Trump. I know. And we should probably look for some peace. Yeah, let's do that. Peace for sure, he says now. And Netanyahu's going to go down and meet with Trump.
Starting point is 01:06:40 I mean, we've also had world leaders from across the world already lining up to meet with Trump. I mean, I know Viktor Orban met with him. This is a Polish president. Right. Like they're looking at it. There is clearly someone who the world is like, maybe you guys should put him in because things seem to be not great for you the way it is. Maybe you do need actual grownups in charge instead of ones who are letting their brains drip out their ears. Well, picture from Netanyahu's perspective. I don't know how far the trip is from Israel, but it's quite a long trip. Made it all the way here. He gets here and he landed yesterday morning. Nobody greeted him at the airport. Nobody greeted him at Joint Base Andrews, not Kamala, not Biden. Neither wanted to be seen.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Biden was in the basement somewhere. He didn't even send like Carter or the Maryland guy who's retiring to go in the chair. Exactly. Nothing, nothing at all. No, he gets here and they asked in a press conference yesterday, oh, what are your plans while you're here? And then he said, you know, we'll see. We're going to go speak to Congress or that type of thing. Are you meeting with President Biden? We're waiting to hear back from his team. You flew all the way across the country and the leader of the alleged leader of the free world won't even give you a yes or no on if you're meeting or not. Well, they're terrified.
Starting point is 01:07:39 I mean, Biden and Kamala are both terrified of the far left. They are. That's why you have like that's why what's going to sort of be interesting this fall leading up to the election is Kamala is going to be outspoken against Israel. And Biden's going to be like, we back Israel. I don't I don't know. You don't think so? No. Today she was saying that she raised money from Israel for Israel as a child. I think she's also was backing Gaza, though. She said, we hear you.
Starting point is 01:07:58 We'll listen to you. She's going to follow Biden legacy of trying to be on every side of this issue issue and failing miserably. I mean, that's really what this is. I mean, you know, they put her husband in charge of the White House anti-Semitism task force. Her stepdaughter is raising money. And he was talking to donors the other day on some kind of Zoom call. Right. This is why they hate social media.
Starting point is 01:08:15 So intensely on this issue. They used to be able to show up to a rally in, let's say they go to New York, and there's a bunch of people, and Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, let's say the 90s, Bill Clinton will be a bunch of people and Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton. Let's hit the 90s. Bill Clinton will be like, you know, we're going to have no more war. And they go, yeah, I'm going to bring all our troops out of the Middle East. Desert Storm was a bad idea. I don't know what year that was. I don't know. But you're the point.
Starting point is 01:08:37 They're going to say we're not going to have these wars. And then people are going to be like, yay. Then he's going to march down to a district that's mostly funded by military contractors. And they say, we're going to make sure we defend America's interests overseas and not abandon our men. Nowadays, you can't do it. Remember Kamala constantly changed her accent a while back when she went down to Louisiana, she had a southern accent. She's still doing it. She still does that. That's going to be her own policy positions now.
Starting point is 01:08:55 They're just going to call it code switching. Right, AOC did it. Yeah. And if you complain about it, you're racist. Yes. Yeah. We attacked the stutter. What do they call it? Yeah, you're racist. Yes. Yeah. We attack the stutter. Remember now what they call it?
Starting point is 01:09:05 Yeah. You remember code switching? It was like it was a whole thing when like microaggressions started being a thing that was like the new kind of racism. So code switching was the thing that people of color do when they're around their own people of color and they talk like each other. And then they code switch when they're around white people because those nasty white people, you can't just be yourself around the nasty white people. I mean, that's like, everyone does it in Chicago.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Everyone does it everywhere. Like, do you talk the same way with your family when you get home at the end of the day as you do to like your colleagues? No, at work you talk like this and then you get home and you're like, oh my God, it was terrible at work today, blah, whatever. Blah, whatever. I don't know. But but everybody does it you talk one way with your friends and another way with your siblings and then some other way with yada yada yada blah blah blah yeah the whole thing
Starting point is 01:09:55 blah blah code switching yeah now hillary was even there's an npr podcast called code switching or something yeah i think a lot of the problems we see culturally are due to uppity, wealthy liberals who have been isolated from society and are just now discovering very basic things most of America already knows. But because they're arrogant and racist, they think they're supreme and superior and need to assert this over everyone else. You know, Biden hit on that point. I don't know if you remember right after the debate when he was kind of in hiding for a
Starting point is 01:10:23 few days and he finally came on a morning Joe and did that supposed to be recovery interview, but actually made it worse. Remember that was when he was flipping the pages next to the microphone where like you're reading a script. He was in the interview and he said, the D.C. elite are trying to take me out. Joe Biden has been in D.C. for 51 years. He is a D.C. elite.
Starting point is 01:10:40 He's that old white guy in the room. All his friends turned on him. Yeah, they are, which really shows you. It's the Julius Caesar thing. It is. Backstabbers. He doesn't have any friends left is the real issue. They all died. He's of that age where all your friends died. Absolutely. And I'm not trying to be crude, but this is the reality.
Starting point is 01:10:53 His friends are all gone. And Kamala's 59. And he's like a younger generation. She's retirement age. Yeah. Jeez. What we need is like a 50-year-old. 45-year-old maybe? We had DeSantis. We could have 35. He was like looking around, right? Geez. What we need is like a 50 year old, 40, 45 year old, maybe.
Starting point is 01:11:10 I mean, we had to have 35 like looking around. Right. And he was the Vance's 40. Yeah. Yeah. That's good. Advances for you. Well, that's actually like, you know, leading your movement into the future. Yes. Which is smart by Trump to say we're going to put somebody here that's younger that could be the leader of the party in the future, potentially. Also, J.D. Vance's policy plans, his ideas are really interesting because they're basically liberal plans from the mid 80s. They all are. My stepmother was a Democrat at the time and my dad was a Republican. My dad was like a pro Ronald Reagan. And my stepmom was what was it? Walter Mondale was like the race at the time. Oh, wow. Yeah. Old timey. I know. Mondale. Mondale. And I remember, yeah, I remember sitting around, not as bad as Dukakis, but I remember sitting around the dining room table
Starting point is 01:11:54 with my, you know, parents and they would talk about different stuff. And my stepmother was all labor, you know, families, working families, you know, all of this kind of stuff. And my dad was like fiscal responsibility. And that's what they would argue about. And now Vance is like a little bit of fiscal responsibility, families, labor, American dream. Yeah, I think that's what's the most fascinating thing in American politics is that we the parties that we have today, though they have the same name, are fundamentally different than they were two or three years ago. And I think that's the reality that especially like younger generations are growing up in. They actually cannot relate to
Starting point is 01:12:33 their grandparents who are registered Democrats or Republicans because not only do they face, you know, different technological issues, but they are actually not talking about the same thing. So I say it a lot, but, you know, America, you know, it would be different if American politics were about a common goal, shared values, and we have different ideas on how to get there. But actually, right now, these parties have different visions and opinions on the country. They are leading them in different directions. It's not about compromising because they don't want the same things. Well, I don't know if you've watched Hillbilly Elegy yet. I've heard about it for years. I've read the book.
Starting point is 01:13:01 Finally. Okay. Yeah. I finally watched the Netflix show on the way back from Milwaukee while we were doing all the flight issues we were talking about earlier. And I was like, I have some time. I'll watch it. That's the family and community he grew up in. And so it's authentic. It's genuine. It makes sense where the policy- They're starting to attack him for it too. They're like, that's not even real. That was a Time article today, which you're going to be like, what are you talking about? And for the Kentucky governor to come out and be like, oh, he doesn't know what growing up in middle class was like. That's a man who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth. His dad gave him the position he has.
Starting point is 01:13:29 And you watch that or read the book. And like he grew up in the worst of the worst. And the way that he first of all made a career himself completely by himself, first in his family to ever go to college and then actually become a VP nominee. Like that's the true testament to the American dream. And it's not somebody code switching or actually making up this false life story like we've seen some on the left make up. He wrote this book years and years ago before he even entered politics.
Starting point is 01:13:52 And so this is true and genuine. He didn't have aspirations at the time. Right, and he was already successful, right? He had this career in Silicon Valley. It's not that he, you know, I'm sure everyone has political aspirations when they're thinking about the future. But, you know, it was a very different time period when he was writing it than the stage of life he's in right now.
Starting point is 01:14:10 Andy Basher out of out of Kentucky is on the shortlist, hypothetically, to be one of Kamala Harris's VP picks. So I feel like you have to look at Shapiro. I mean, I feel like there could be any of them. Well, the media said they can't do Shapiro because he's Jewish. Wow. They they. Wow. Can There's a guy in Arizona. The media said they can't do Shapiro because he's Jewish. Wow. They can't have a Jewish vice president? Yes. Numerous media outlets have said that her husband and a vice president being Jewish would cost her the election. You know that that, I mean, does the media know that that's anti-Semitic?
Starting point is 01:14:39 It's actually crazy to say. It's not because they're allowed to say it because they're the media. It's only when their opposition says that it's bad. Well, isn't Doug Imhoff chair of this little anti-Semitic group? He needs to be writing some strongly worded letter against these media organizations, but they won't because they're in bed with them and they're their best friends.
Starting point is 01:14:53 And they might look at Pennsylvania as a lost state to be honest. That's the thing about Shapiro. I mean, Trump's assassination attempt, I am sure, fundamentally changed the way Pennsylvania voters feel about the election. I'm not saying all of them love Trump, but I mean, to have that happen in your backyard is impactful. And so then to look towards Arizona or Kentucky or a different state is me. I mean,
Starting point is 01:15:15 there might be sort of a calculation there where they're like, look, it would be nice, but we just aren't going to win the states. We have to we have to use these resources differently. We heard a lot about Kelly today, and he sent out some fundraising emails for the Biden campaign, which I thought was interesting. I think Shapiro or Kelly makes the most sense to win like an actual state. But again, it's whether or not they view Pennsylvania as a lost cause. And I mean, obviously, that was such a pivotal state in 20. If they do this time, that's a strong testament to obviously Trump, you know, being so high in the polls. But the fact that I mean, I think can't pick a VP to singularly win a state.
Starting point is 01:15:46 It's just which state they choose to win. Let's jump to this story from the Post Millennial. Hey, that's us. That's you. Who wrote this? There's no byline. Come on, Libby. What's going on?
Starting point is 01:15:56 I know who wrote that, but I won't tell you. It says Tucker Carlson overtakes Joe Rogan on Spotify. Now the number one podcast in America. Look at that shocked Joe Rogan face. He can't believe it. Tucker's bigger than him. I do think that likely Joe will jump back into the number one slot in the next couple of weeks or so. But this just does show that Tucker is biting at his heels.
Starting point is 01:16:18 He's getting up there. And more importantly, how white-pilling is it that the top two podcasts are truth-tellers? I saw your post about that. Yeah, I think that's pretty cool. And Tucker has been killing it lately. He had two really... I mostly watch his interviews. Jack Posobiec's interview
Starting point is 01:16:35 was great. And he had an interview recently with Matt Taibbi that was also really great. I saw that. Yeah, that was really fascinating. And you have to look... None of those were fascinating.
Starting point is 01:16:44 He rebuilt this entirely by himself. Like, there's no mainstream media support. This was him and his team. He's like. Yeah, it was really fascinating. And you have to look. None of those were fascinating. He rebuilt this entirely by himself. Like, there's no mainstream media support. This was him and his team. He's like Public Square, I think. Yes, yeah. Like, he put this together. This isn't like a Fox backup or anything like that.
Starting point is 01:16:54 And you know Fox is like rolling over right now. And it took a little bit of time for him to hit his stride. Like, at first it seemed good. And then it was kind of like, what's going on? And now the interviews are really good. Has it been close to a year? Almost. Okay, yeah. Has it been almost almost a year i think almost a year at
Starting point is 01:17:08 this point one of my favorite tucker stories he was supposed to come to alabama for a fundraiser the monday after he got fired and i remember seeing the break i was driving from a campaign event and i was like oh he's not coming anymore and like totally would have understood like you you know you just got fired from a job like you're not still coming and he still came and it was his first public event and we were supposed to have a little meeting beforehand and so i'm waiting downstairs and he comes in and you know him and he's he's like orange i don't know i never met oh okay okay well he's like orange orange suntan and it's not what he normally looks like and i was like well what happened to you and he was like again everybody around was like oh like if he's a
Starting point is 01:17:42 little upset like it you know he got fired two days ago. Like, expect that. Like, you know, just kind of roll the punches. He walks in doing the cackle, completely burnt orange. I was like, what happened? I've been fishing every day, golfing every afternoon, just living my best life. And I was like, I love this. Like, again, this is somebody that happy warrior that just picks up and keeps going. And I think Fox News needed him more than they realized.
Starting point is 01:18:03 In fact, they needed him more than he really needed them. But wasn't it sort of about the Dominion lawsuit, getting him out of there so that they didn't have to fork over even more cash to Dominion? I mean, that was an interesting calculation on their part, right? That they could continue on at the level without Tucker Carlson and that they could lose him and he wouldn't become a competitor somewhere else. I mean, he could have gone to Newsmax, right? I mean, I think it's better that he's independent, but he was a talent that they had exclusive rights to and they decided it was worth letting him go. And I think that must have been a miscalculation.
Starting point is 01:18:31 I don't know how much money they would have owed Dominion. And you look at the views on, you were saying that specific interview, you look at the views on like each individual post, which obviously, you know, Elon letting him post that long is incredible. That's hundreds of millions of viewers as opposed to what, I mean, he did have the number one show, but this is a lot more. And again, I don't know how that all works,
Starting point is 01:18:49 but this is great. But yeah, I have enjoyed, I have enjoyed some of the recent interviews quite a bit. Oh, he also had a great one with Catherine Herrich. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 01:18:57 That was a fascinating. Oh, she's the CBS reporter that got fired. And yeah, there you go. Yeah. But then, as much as,
Starting point is 01:19:04 as much as I said it was good that the top two podcasts are truth tellers the third biggest podcast is call her daddy what's that it's like a girl's podcast that was really like raunchy back in the day and she's become kind of a mainstream influencer is it still raunchy i've never really listened to it i know she got married recently i mean it's gone from being this dating podcast, I think, to really becoming kind of all-around female influencer. Well, you look at the kind of content that
Starting point is 01:19:31 men listen to, and it's Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan, and the kind of content that women listen to is less... I don't know what the right word is. I can tell you what I listen to. It's none of this stuff. Well, True Crime is big. True Crime is big and it has a dominant female audience.
Starting point is 01:19:47 I listen to Jack and Charlie. I listen to this show. But those are male-dominated shows. And then I listen to Spooked. Just like ghost stories. Oh yeah, I love the ghost story ones. And I listen to Honestly with Barry Weiss. Oh yeah, that's a good one.
Starting point is 01:20:02 Those are mostly what I listen to. But these are still male-dominated. So, like, news and politics and culture is, like, 80% male audiences. Even culture is 80% male? Yep. And the female podcasts are, like, sex and dating. And true crime. I don't like true crime because it's always, like, some child was bludgeoned to death.
Starting point is 01:20:21 And you're like, ah. Those are a lot of crime. Don't want. Don't want. And I think like on TV, the big shows for women are like Married to Strangers. What's that?
Starting point is 01:20:31 You know what that is, right? You watch it. It's Married at First Sight is what you're talking about, right? But it's like 12 shows. Oh, there's hundreds of them. It's not Star Trek and Red Letter Media.
Starting point is 01:20:40 Turns out we're not watching whatever the Star, what is it called? I can't even make it. The Mandalorian. That's the Star Wars movie. There what is it called? The Star, I can't even make, The Mandalorian. That's the Star Wars. There you go. No, I mean, I think fundamentally the differences in what they're interested in is,
Starting point is 01:20:50 speaks to the fact that their brains are fundamentally different, right? It's not that women can't be interested in politics and men can't be looking for dating advice, but generally the anthropological, emotional, that kind of stuff is often something women are interested in. Like for True Crime, I hear this with women all the time. Like, why does this happen? How do we get here? Right. And men are often more interested in slightly different information.
Starting point is 01:21:11 I can understand where it's like this is happening now or whatever it is. That's that's the reality of culture. And that's why I worry for a culture that only becomes politically driven. I think that we have to have lots of different things that we are in trouble with that right now. I mean, that is an issue. There's politics in everything. There's politics in all of our different art forms too. Like I used to be really interested in modern art
Starting point is 01:21:34 and I still like modern art, but like I really like Brancusi, the sculptor and whatever else, but I used to really only like contemporary art. And then it's only within like the past five or 10 years that I've started getting a lot, a lot more interested, even less like more like five, six years, a lot more interested in the classical arts,
Starting point is 01:21:56 include like painting that's like representational painting, the religious stuff from not even the Renaissance necessarily, but like, which I i like but the middle ages because there's so much sincerity in it and there's so much sort of like a hope and wishing in it and all of these beautiful mother and child like the madonna and child ones i love that um but you don't see a lot of you don't see contemporary art forms and entertainments that are not infused with politics. That's a good point.
Starting point is 01:22:29 And like we said earlier, like it's shoved in your face and you're brought into politics constantly. And isn't part of that have to do with the fact that we've let religion to slip into such huge decline? Absolutely. And religion is somewhere that we see the beautiful things. You know, it's when you, it's when you look to God and you look to the heavens that you think like, oh, what beautiful sky,
Starting point is 01:22:49 what beautiful trees, what a beautiful thing mankind is, what beautiful things we are to each other. And we don't see that even half as much as we used to because we don't value the beauty of it. I was thinking about this the other day. It's like mankind was created in God's image, right? That's what we learn in Genesis. Mankind was created in God's image.
Starting point is 01:23:09 But as we move away from God, we move away from the beautiful because God created us to be beautiful just like him, you know, as best we can. God created us to be beautiful. And as we let go of God, it's almost like we're flipping God off by saying, and now we're going to be ugly. We don't want to be beautiful like you. And I think that's a real tragedy. Yeah. And I think we see this, you know, as our culture becomes more atheist, more agnostic, we see this in all kinds of things. I mean, when we were in Milwaukee, I was in love with the Milwaukee Public Library that was down the street from the RNC convention, right? It's gorgeous.
Starting point is 01:23:45 It's beautiful architecture. I mean, a lot of the art and creativity isn't just painting and writing and fiction and movies and plays and stuff like that. That's obviously integral. I think people who are passionate about should pursue it. But it's also like the architecture we put out. I mean, when I lived in Dallas, they were throwing up apartment buildings really quickly because people moving there. But it didn't look like the historic, you know, buildings that were created in a lot of major cities. We forget regional architecture and our rush to kind of put up whatever. And you'll see this like beauty, we are kind of rejecting it, or because we're in a rush to sort of get things done as cheaply and quickly as possible. We aren't
Starting point is 01:24:29 investing into it. Either way, you know, we are losing something that was so important to society for so long. And I think that's terrible. And to your point about faith earlier, when I was writing the book, I went back and forth with my publishing team. The middle section of the book is called The Modern Day F-Words, and it's faith, family, and freedom're like you can't call them under the f words i like that thank you and i was like it that's the cornerstone of america like the founding father set down your publisher yeah well and it worked you know but we we put that together and still put it out and that's been everybody's favorite chapter every time we talk to people because it's true faith family freedom were constantly attacked by the left it was the the cornerstone of America and the left knew
Starting point is 01:25:05 when they attacked that, they attacked all of America and it was this kind of thing. And we constantly see these polls that are thrown in the media every few weeks that Gen Z doesn't like America, doesn't see the beauty of America,
Starting point is 01:25:17 doesn't have hope in America. And it's because we're constantly told how bad it is and we don't view it as this like, this is a God-sent thing. This is this opportunity of this great experiment that obviously stood the test of time for 248 years.
Starting point is 01:25:27 But when, you know, not to sound like Kamala Harris, but when you don't step back and look at the context of it, without the coconut tree. So she is getting to you, you admit it. When you listen to it, you just look at all of it, like everything around you. You're like, wow, like it is pretty cool
Starting point is 01:25:39 that America's here this long. You look at the contemporary art, but they don't want us to do that. They don't want us to look at the classical stuff. It's just the news cycle's bad. Look right in front of you. Look how bad the fear mongering is. Let's, you look at the contemporary art, but they don't want us to do that. They don't want us to look at the classical stuff. It's just the news cycle's bad. Look right in front of you. Look how bad the fear mongering is. Let's scare you some more, get you to vote.
Starting point is 01:25:50 Hate yourself, hate yourself. Yes, that's all it is. Which is terrifying. I wonder what the shift was that made politics pop culture or vice versa. I think it may have to do... It had to have been Trump. It was well...
Starting point is 01:26:02 So in 2008, we started seeing media companies making money off getting political because rage drove traffic. But I think it was also a strategy from Democrats predominantly trying to figure out how to capitalize younger voters in 2008, 2012. And they were like, so let's attack social media where young people are. And then this created a generation of people who are like, politics is pop culture. And I think for Gen Z, you know, I really briefly worked at a school, not as a teacher, just kind of administration staff. And I remember that there was sort of a praise for the students who would take on activism. And it was an all-girls school. And it was very, you know, I think just
Starting point is 01:26:40 generally progressive. But there was a desire to sort of show that your youth was politically engaged in a correct way. And to the detriment to critical thinking and expression, because I think there are a lot of young people who are looking for validations from their teachers and their parents. And if they're signaled like, oh, well, we think it's cool that you're so precocious and and want you to talk about these issues and what else. I mean, you see this often with young children who are brought to testify before state government when they have these bills banning transgender, you know, medical interference laws. And they'll bring out these young, I would say very confused people
Starting point is 01:27:17 whose parents are probably like, wow, you're changing everyone's life. You're doing so great. And they crave affirmation, which is super normal. That's how kids are. And it's sort of confusing being mature and interesting with taking on and parroting the views of someone else. And you mentioned 2008. They claim 2008 was the first Twitter election when everything became on social media. I think 24 is going to be the first TikTok election where it's like, and Trump and I talked about this,
Starting point is 01:27:46 where you can put a 15 second video out for free, and right now he's getting 200, at least 200 million views on each video, for free as opposed to spending hundreds of million dollars on like a 30 second ad that people aren't watching cable. You don't think the views are real? Absolutely not. On TikTok,
Starting point is 01:28:02 how come? Just industry stuff. So I'll just put it this way. I've met people who... Let's phrase it like this. Selling advertisements, selling sponsorship. We do this all the time and we'll go
Starting point is 01:28:17 to a sponsor and we'll say we can get X amount of views and they will tell us we are not interested in TikTok and a couple other platforms who I will not mention because it's a waste of money. And the issue is, so the one thing we hear about like YouTube sponsorships is they're like, I can't believe how well the ad performed when we, when we sponsor your show. It's, it's incredible. And, uh, and I'm like, yeah, because we have a lot of people who watch, watch it. And they're like, yeah, because we have a lot of people who are watching.
Starting point is 01:28:46 And they're like, yeah, but we sponsor other shows of Compro Views and nobody buys stuff. And I'm like, because the views probably aren't real. Because they'll say my podcast gets X amount of views and that's not correct. And so I could be wrong about TikTok. What I can say is that they don't convert. And so we don't prioritize it all that heavily because it's hard to actually capitalize. Sure. I haven't heard that yet. That's a good point. Yeah. There's a couple other platforms I won't mention. I'm not 100% on TikTok.
Starting point is 01:29:18 I don't know exactly what's going on on their platform. It's fine, whatever. I don't know. I'm just saying my opinion. We've talked to sponsors and said, you know, we only do sales really on the audio version. So you can, for everyone listening, we're on iTunes and Spotify as well. People are like, hey, the show's not on YouTube. What do I do? It's on iTunes and Spotify. It's on every podcast platform, by the way. But they'll come to us and they'll say, we take all our metrics from every platform. We show them to the sponsors. We have like a deck and we'll be like, look what we can do for you. And we're very, very, very particular. That's why we almost never have any sponsors on the podcast version.
Starting point is 01:29:54 I think we have like four or five because I'll just outright be like not reading that. Won't do that. You get a lot of sponsors that are like, will you say that our underwear is the best underwear you've ever tried? And I'm like, if I try it and I think it's the best underwear I've ever tried. And they go, really? You mean you're not going to read a teleprompter, whatever they put in front of you? I will tell you this.
Starting point is 01:30:11 It's all fake. I know some people who have big endorsement deals and they outright say like, I never wore those shorts before. And they're like, really? That's 100%. I believe it. But that sucks. I like when happy in Cappymore, when he starts the subway.
Starting point is 01:30:26 But my point ultimately is when we were recently negotiating with someone and they said we wanted to buy X amount of ad reads or whatever. And I was like, well, I don't know if we could do it. What if we did this instead on these platforms? And they were like, not interested. And I said, why not these platforms? And they said, because they never convert and we waste our money. And I'm like like uh-huh so the views may be real but the question is with things like TikTok and I'll just I'll just say I'm not trying to be a dick but X you know doesn't convert well look we did our we we we stopped multi we tried multi-streaming two days and then we stopped
Starting point is 01:31:01 because it people are like wow Tim you got 800,000 views on x and I'm like yeah and then we looked at the back end and it's like I like x x does what it does but it doesn't do the live streams in the same way that it does I can post something and get a thousand retweets and then those actually do convert so the thing about x that works is if I tweet but if if if someone's like will you do a video with a sponsor? I'm like, eh. So we've offered that. We're like, hey, what if we do a stream on X? And then we do it.
Starting point is 01:31:28 No, because that's not going to work. So I think the issue is with TikTok, people are going to scroll through. Trump's going to get the view. But 200 million? I mean, you've got to be talking about people in Indonesia, Turkey, Singapore. How many Americans are you actually reaching with this? So when Mr. Beast gets 200 million views on a YouTube video, it's like, yeah, there's not that many Americans.
Starting point is 01:31:48 Like, there's 330 million, but I'm saying, like, they're not all Mr. Beast fans on YouTube. So the question is, are these actually worth getting? And that's why we don't care that much about TikTok. What I think we have to be careful of is there's been some other people who have been like, we get an email and they're like, we'd love to book Tim Pool to come on our show. We have a million followers. And I go, how about that? And then I go to their profile and they have a thousand views and 10 comments. And I'm like, no, you don't. And that's the same thing. So I don't think TikTok is actually all that worth it in my opinion, but you know, I don't think, I don't think TikTok will be the great influencer.
Starting point is 01:32:29 Has Dylan Mulvaney been in the news recently? No. That's kind of weird. In a wellness check. I'm trending on, on, on Twitter all the time. And then journalists use Twitter and then journalists write about it. So this is, this is what X is. That's why it's so powerful. X. Instagram Instagram also converts really well. Instagram's crazy. People love buying on Instagram. But I don't see it on TikTok. That's just me.
Starting point is 01:32:51 I could be wrong. It could just be us. I think TikTok is weird because it does have an influence on some types of commerce. Like I remember when the world was out of feta cheese because that one recipe went viral. Or you'll hear this story about like book talk. Like authors will have released a book seven years ago and all of a sudden it'll just kind of blow up and they'll suddenly have this this new fan base um but i it's hard for me to know uh entirely because we don't totally know how they count views like how long does someone have to stay on it on a video what kind of engagement they have to have it's all weird and
Starting point is 01:33:22 it's all you know shadows right very shadow you know, shadows. Right. Very shadow. I think ultimately we'll probably see a collapse of the influencer market. I think that is an industry that has blown up and it will, you know, it will change. But it is interesting because you'll find that there are some people who have, you know, are on the cutting edge. Right. Like there are probably people on Rumble who have a very loyal following that don't have any engagement somewhere else. I mean, it might become more siloed than we realized it. I just don't know what the future of social media holds because we just don't know what's coming. Neuralink. That's a no from me, dog, but you already know that. You're going to be, you're going to, you're going to get a, you know, a book offer and they're going to say, we really want you to write this book. It's got a $3 million advance and it's because, you know, 20 years, $3 million will be equivalent of 200,000. And then they're going to say, we really want you to write this book. It's got a $3 million advance. And it's because, you know, 20 years, $3 million will be equivalent of $200,000.
Starting point is 01:34:08 And then you're going to be like, that's great. And they'll be like, so we'd love to do this deal. What's your Neuralink username? And you're going to be like, oh, I don't have Neuralink. And they're going to go, well, how do we send you the contract? And you're going to be like, well, I have email. And they'll be like, excuse me? Look, I still ask for restaurants to give me a paper menu even when they have a QR code.
Starting point is 01:34:24 I can make it for a little while probably. Thankfully, I won't be dead. So try applying for a job today and letting them know that you have a rotary phone, that you're at your house between the hours of X and X, and they can only call you then. They're going to be like, yeah, I'm not hiring you. They're going to say, where do I email you? I don't have a computer, but I do have a touchtone phone.
Starting point is 01:34:42 People talked about this, especially during COVID, because they were like, well, schools are remote. But then, you know, especially in the southern part of West Virginia, like the infrastructure doesn't support universally strong wireless services. And so it's like you are actually asking me to use a resource that I don't have. I mean, we will see. That was why Biden went out there and he just kept talking about Internet service. We got fiber out here now, which is really great news. I had friends during COVID who had to go park in a McDonald's parking lot and connect to their Wi-Fi and do things. Wow.
Starting point is 01:35:11 What if there's no McDonald's area? That's what I'm saying. Yeah. What are you going to do? Yeah. It's crazy. If there's no McDonald's, just go to the Starbucks. I'm sure, you know, Weld, West Virginia is prepared for that.
Starting point is 01:35:19 When we first moved to Western Maryland in the castle, the only internet was 20 megabit DSL. That sounds like a thing. DSL was a thing. Yeah, it's using a phone line. And so we asked about a fiber optic, and it took, I think, four or five months. And it's $3,000 a month. And they had to lay like a mile and a half of fiber cable from their backhaul connection down underground to our building. And so that, I think, cost like $30,000. Are you like founding a civilization in Maryland?
Starting point is 01:36:00 What were you doing? Well, so we're out in West Virginia, and in order to get internet here, we have to pay the company to lay the fiber line underground for miles upon miles to then wire the building up. We have Starlink backup, and now the good news is the provider out here has recently upgraded to fiber. So now you've got to lay the cables. I knew someone in West Virginia was trying to work with a fiber provider and had to sign a contract like, because it was a business and be like, I will be here for, I can't remember, it's three or five years because the businesses are gambling, right? Like they have to invest in it. Yeah. So they'll say something like if you do a five year guaranteed contract, they will cover 70% of the cost to lay the cable on the underground.
Starting point is 01:36:49 If you do a two year, then they'll cover 20% and if you do no guarantee you got to pay full cost 30 grand or whatever and then we did some kind of deal cuz like yeah whatever I don't care and then they installed the wrong box that because there's like two different kinds I can't remember what happened and then we were like why is the internet working and they were like whoops and then they had to come out and reprogram it. So dumb. I'll say I'm on your Wi-Fi and it works great. Yeah, well, the thing is, like, consumer gigabit internet is $100. Business, rural gigabit internet is like $2,000 to $3,000 in a month.
Starting point is 01:37:16 Per month. That's right. All right, everybody, we're going to go to Super Chat. So smash that like button. Subscribe to this channel. One like equals one f k h i'm trying it out what do you guys think i don't know fj beats kind of rolled off the tongue i saw a truck the other day it said fjb under it was like dodge ram or whatever and said fjb under
Starting point is 01:37:36 it and i'm like ah he's got to take that off now i spoke at rock the south of the day it's this really big southern music festival country music festival 35 000 young people there and i came out and gave this spiel about registering to vote and how important it is and blah, blah, blah. This is the day before Biden dropped out of this last Saturday. I couldn't get through my speech, Tim, because of the FJV chants. I had to pause because it was so like, it was great. It was wonderful. So now I have to change it. Well, F K H. So head over to timcast.com, click join us, become a member to support our work directly. And then you can come hang out for our members only uncensored call in show coming up at 10 p.m. where members get to call in and actually talk to us and our guests hang out on the show.
Starting point is 01:38:14 It's totally worth it. And in the meantime, we are going to read your super chats. But I will stress this, too. It's very important for all of you guys to know this. When we had an episode taken down a couple of days ago, I'm getting a bunch of messages saying like, where's the episode? Where's the episode? And it's always up on iTunes and Spotify right when the show wraps. So if you're ever on YouTube and you don't see anything, it's going to be there. And then depending on what happens, it may be on Rumble as well. So important context. But for those that would like to, you can also just listen on iTunes and Spotify as well. I will tell you this, iTunes and Spotify conversions are, iTunes conversions are insane. The, the, the, so I think it's like 4x for iTunes to YouTube. It could be more, it could be like 10.
Starting point is 01:39:00 Wow. Yeah. So if you get like the CPMs are bonkers, I think it's 10 times. It could be, it could be five or 10 times the revenue. So it's like, um, that's what everybody has a podcast. I think if you get like a hundred thousand views on your podcast, you'll might be making like a hundred thousand a month. If you get a hundred and that's in one day, 100,000, if you get 100,000 on YouTube, you're going to make like 200 bucks. So it's like five. Oh, that's substantially. Oh, no, no, no. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:39:28 That's per day. Yeah. So let's see. If you're doing like 100,000 per day, you're going to be getting, yeah, I think it might be like five times as much revenue on podcasts. Well, the thing is about podcasts that people turn them on, they leave them on the whole time. That's true.
Starting point is 01:39:41 Yeah. And they convert better for whatever reason. I think the issue too with social media is that people are scrolling through things. They click things, they X them on the whole time. That's true. Yeah, and they convert better for whatever reason. I think the issue, too, with social media is that people are scrolling through things, they click things, they X them out. But when you pull it up on your phone and you put your phone down in your car, you're in.
Starting point is 01:39:52 And so they end up generating a lot more money. All right, Tbomb85 says, How do you verify people? And then an eggplant and a peach emoji. Clint Torres in second place with Howdy People. It's finally happened. Clint, you've been dethroned.
Starting point is 01:40:09 Fortunately. Clint always has the first one, but not today. Token Black Guy says, Howdy People. Tim, when Trump wins the presidency, can SCNR request
Starting point is 01:40:16 a White House correspondence reporter? I think Hannah Clare would be a good pick, although she'd probably hate it. I have a great time. I would love to do that. That'd be so fun. Or I want to follow Melania Trump around. I think a great time. I would love to do that. That'd be so fun.
Starting point is 01:40:25 Or I want to follow Melania Trump around. I think she's great. I don't know that Scanner needs a specific Melania correspondent, but if we do, I'm there. That'd be kind of brutal because they do the press conference at 2 p.m. or 1 p.m. And then coming on the show after, after having been there, would actually be really good.
Starting point is 01:40:42 Yeah, you should totally do that. You'd be like, I asked the press secretary personally and they told me this. I think it would be cool. And again, I think it would kind of marry the relationship between alternative media. Like instead of a White House correspondent calling into Fox, it would be like,
Starting point is 01:40:54 I am here with you guys. Well, that was such a cool thing when Trump was in office because you had OAN in the briefing room, you had Newsmax, you know, and sometimes there'd be random other outlets just hanging out in the room. Sean Spicer started it where once a month
Starting point is 01:41:07 at the beginning of the administration, you could zoom in if you had a podcast. And that was really cool. I need to bring that back. That was cool too. Corporate press was pissed. Of course they were. But they've been pissed about everything ever since the blogosphere. Because they're dying. Alright, let's go.
Starting point is 01:41:23 Tim Crespi says, How can Kamala as VP count the Electoral College votes? She's going to be running and then counting the votes for herself without ever getting a vote. It would be really funny
Starting point is 01:41:32 if she just like, she gets up there at the podium. She's like, I'm going to count the votes that you've all given me. She's like, I'm going to count the votes
Starting point is 01:41:38 for the president. Here's the ones you've given me, but I got this basket right here. Kamala? Kamala? Kamala? They're going to be like, wait a minute.
Starting point is 01:41:46 This was just sitting here when I walked up. Yeah, these must be the votes. Villainous V says, Tim, does Kamala still have the post on X about the fundraiser for the BLM Riders
Starting point is 01:41:55 or did they delete it? Still there. Also, howdy Clint. Yeah, still there. And it still takes money, which is insane. She's sitting VP raising money for bail reform.
Starting point is 01:42:04 BC says, A.G. Bailey was sitting VP, raising money for bail reform. BC says, AG Bailey was just here the other day hating on VP Harris for wrongfully keeping people imprisoned. Today, he did the same thing with Christopher Dunn, who has been wrongly imprisoned for 31 years. What's that about? I do not know. I don't know enough about that case.
Starting point is 01:42:21 I don't know. Give me a second. I'll brief myself. The future White House correspondent is going to do some research over here. I feel like there must be something going on there. Yeah. Oh, okay. What's the story?
Starting point is 01:42:32 So 20 hours ago, Missouri Supreme Court halts release of a man with an overturned conviction as he's about to go free. This is AP News. He has an overturned conviction? That's what they're saying. So why can't he go free? Threatened by... And so Bailey didn't do it. The Supreme Court did.
Starting point is 01:42:45 What do you mean? AP News is reporting that he's been fighting Dunn's release. Right, right. The situation was chaotic as a deadline was set by the judge approaches. Corrections Department spokesperson Karen Pommagen told the Associated Press that Dunn was out of the prison facility and waiting for a ride. His wife told AP News she was on his way to pick him up. Let me read about this for a minute. I'll give you a summary.
Starting point is 01:43:07 I'm just wondering what the crime was and why Bailey's contesting it. Let's go. Wait, hold on. No, you guys talk. I'm going to find out. Long Wing D-Train says, just a reminder to cheer up your day,
Starting point is 01:43:22 have a chuckle, and always a white pill moment. Look up Antifa frying pan on YouTube. Good come in humor small moments we are going to make it i wonder if that's them making pancakes with the frying pan i wonder somebody told kamala that i've asked about chuckling and she really took it to heart she sent it every moment every day no to start chuckling to make her day better but someone did i think the the the marketing and pr consultants are just like you've got to laugh every second. Any question.
Starting point is 01:43:47 Anything. Oh, crazy. Yeah. What have we here? Mike Harrison says, Tim, I have been suffering all week with an infected root canal. I'm here today. Ask if you could shout out my give, send, go. It is Michael H. Dental Work. I need help paying for expensive dental work. I need done. Thank you. Well, best of luck, sir.
Starting point is 01:44:06 They said that, because I just literally had that like two or three weeks ago, antibiotics, dirt cheap, and it instantly alleviates the pain, and they weren't kidding. Award-winning taint says, always fun to watch Brimcast co-host,
Starting point is 01:44:19 Brimcast with co-host Tim Pool and specialty guest Libby Emmons, a lineup worthy of an award like myself. Look, the coup was successful, and we have supporters out there. I appreciate it. It was grassroots. Yeah, it was. It was grassroots. Immediately, especially led by Tim, who said, I can't come into work today.
Starting point is 01:44:35 I easily exemplified what's wrong with transferring all of Biden's funds to Kamala Harris by saying, what if I told all of you to become a member and I, Tim Pool, a show that you know and love, we will utilize this funding to hire good people, to build culture, to do a news show. And then once everyone donated, I went, oh, and by the way, we're putting Ian in charge and I'm quitting. You'd be like, no way. That's basically what happened with Kamala Harris. That is what happened.
Starting point is 01:45:05 All of these voters are entirely disenfranchised and the attorneys general for these states where the voters were disenfranchised should be up in arms and suing. Could you imagine being like a white supremacist right now? Going like, I donated to the old white guy. What's going on? Aw, jeez. He's going to want his money back.
Starting point is 01:45:22 Isn't that all white people? That's all the white liberals. Okay, what do we have? Franco Phillips says, Tim and crew, take a look at the recent picture of Biden and Netanyahu. Biden stands four inches taller, although Google has them both at six foot. What? Well, yeah, but Google would be wrong. They had JD Vance at 5'7".
Starting point is 01:45:40 And I also think a lot of men claim to be six feet when they are maybe not. Is that self-reported? We'll have to look that up. That's crazy. What have we here? Gary Marks says, please stop calling us snowflakes. A snowflake in an avalanche. What else could I say?
Starting point is 01:45:54 The raindrops in the flood? Yes, the rain, the unique snowflakes. No, you're all unique and beautiful snowflakes. We're here to be positive and whatever. Coroag says, we refuse to teach the next generation about the basic foundation of having good character. The foundations are responsibility, accountability, and integrity. Thoughts? Do you believe there is
Starting point is 01:46:16 a more basic foundation? I don't know. What do you think? I think that they're asking some complex questions in this chat. What is the foundation of good character? I think that it're asking some complex questions in this chat. What is the foundation of good character? I think that it starts in the home. And so I know we constantly attack indoctrination in the schools, which absolutely needs to stop. But we need to start again and encourage good parenting because that's how I have good character, which is a crazy concept.
Starting point is 01:46:41 But I think that once we start, you know, actually inspiring Christian conservative values and morals in the living room, we're going to have a lot better country. And we're going to look at this 10, 20 years from now and be like, wow, these young patriots that are coming up in middle school, where did this come from? And it's from strong parents. So when we encourage strong parenting, you know, the school choice and great things like that, I think they're onto something there. Marcus M says, quote, I'll throw beef.
Starting point is 01:47:05 I missed. Did it work? Nope. Didn't work. Is my favorite out of context, Tim pool quote, we've gotten from a live morning show. So the autofocus after I started the show, just focused on the mic and blurred my face. So I grabbed that beef and I threw it at the camera to try and force it to shift and it, shift. And it didn't work. And that's why I said those things. But the best quote ever is the one that Seamus Coughlin of Freedom Tunes turned into a cartoon where I was talking about how if you live in a city, Antifa will attack you and they'll beat you.
Starting point is 01:47:39 But if you live in the countryside, you can have chickens. But the way he pulled that out of context makes it sound like if you don't leave the city, I'm going to beat you unless you buy chickens or something like that. And it's tremendously hilarious. And I'll pull it up. I don't know. Actually, what did Seamus even call it? Just so we have it wrapped up. The Christopher Dunn situation in Missouri, he was convicted of a stabbing in the 90s and then his conviction was overturned.
Starting point is 01:48:07 But Bailey's office, at least in June, had said through the appeals process, multiple courts have affirmed that Christopher Dunn's murder conviction affirmed Christopher Dunn's murder conviction. We always fight to obtain the rule of law. So there's a question about whether his overturned conviction is fair, I guess. So it could be an issue of progressives trying to get a bad guy out. Yeah, I don't know enough about what the appeal process looked like. You know, we have to see why the conviction was overturned to understand both sides of it. Barrett1313 says, Tim, please shout out Creekside Antiques
Starting point is 01:48:36 in downtown Martinsburg. It's having a free swap meet this Saturday 7-27, two blocks from the Castabrew location. My wife and I will have a booth there. Great deals. Wait, that sounds really cool. Everyone should go to... That does sound cool. If you've got nothing else to do, come to
Starting point is 01:48:51 good old Martinsburg and go to Creekside Antiques to meet and live, to live, to talk to people, to check out antiques. What time is it at? It doesn't say. I don't know. I wonder if it's on Google. You can go check it out. Well, I might because I'm doing stuff and driving around with my kid this weekend and taking him to his friend's birthday party.
Starting point is 01:49:11 And there's some really great restaurants. I recommend Brick's. That's where I was going to take him because you said it was good. So sometime we're going to go there. They sous vide the filet mignon. And then they pan. It means it's like slow cooked at a very, very low temperature.
Starting point is 01:49:29 It's like in hot water. It's like sealed and then they put it in hot water so it gets real tender. And then they like bake it and pan-sear it or something. It's just one of the best I've ever had. And then they got truffle fries. Big fan. There's an oyster bar that's opened pretty recently in that area too
Starting point is 01:49:43 and apparently it's really good. I've never been. It's coming up. There's a building bar that's opened pretty recently in that area, too. And apparently it's really good. I've never been. It's coming up. There's a building there that's like 500,000 square feet that was like, yeah, crazy. And it was on sale for like $700,000, which is nuts. Yeah. Because how do you maintain something like that? And I guess a big firm bought it and they're converting it to condos.
Starting point is 01:50:00 So Martinsburg is coming up. Absolutely. Are you talking about the factory? Yeah, is that what it was? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's interesting because it's a developer out of Virginia that has converted
Starting point is 01:50:08 several different large-scale factories into apartments and stuff. I was going to buy that building. Really? Before, we were looking at the castle. I was like,
Starting point is 01:50:17 we could have a factory and then the issue is, how do you maintain such a large building? And I was like, I don't. And they're like, yeah, dude,
Starting point is 01:50:24 someone's going to break in a block away. A block away. Yeah, and you're going to have no idea. And it's hard when buildings have been sitting empty for a while because I know that building had gone through a couple of different changes in ownership. But it is interesting to see. I mean, I hope this happens to a lot of American towns, right?
Starting point is 01:50:38 People come in and invest in the area. You know, there are a couple other investors that have invested in that downtown Martinsburg block and made them nice apartments. And I know they sold out immediately. Better than tearing down, you know, old architecture. Like you're revitalizing. And there are a couple other investors that have invested in that downtown Martinsburg block and made them nice apartments. And I know they sold out immediately. Better than tearing down old architecture. You're revitalizing.
Starting point is 01:50:49 I love that. Yeah, for sure. I like that, too. It's really good. I like a little landmark status. Yes. Yes. J. Jesus. Hey, Tim Crew.
Starting point is 01:50:57 I have a great career opportunity near Lockport, Illinois. Oh, Lockport. But it means leaving Florida. Anywhere near there, we should check out when I interview next week. Appreciate your efforts. And remember, the left lane is for crime. Hill? Lockport.
Starting point is 01:51:11 I've not spent too much time in Lockport, but I had friends who lived around there. I think my friend's mom lived there. I don't know what to tell you. If you're going to Lockport, just go to Chicago. And go to Villa Rosa Pizza on Archer Avenue. It's near Archer and Central. Maybe, yeah, I think it's right before Central. And that's where I used to get pizza from when I was a little kid, and I'm pretty sure they're still there.
Starting point is 01:51:36 Cool. Yeah, Villa Rosa Pizza. They are still there because I was going to go there, but then I didn't end up in Chicago for long enough. And I just went to the Arden's. You checked it out, though? You looked it up? I looked it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:45 And it was open. Yeah. When I was little, whenever my school or my family or anybody would order pizza, it was always. There's other places. There's Danny's. And there's Abbey's. But it was always Villa Rosa. So my school would do pizza day or whatever.
Starting point is 01:51:58 And it would be from Villa Rosa. Because I guess they would put so much sausage on it. I always liked pepperoni. But they were like, people loved it. And it's Chicago Tavern style. There's some ad, I think it's Pizza Hut, that is like, hey, you guys let out the secret that Tavern style is Chicago's real pizza form or something.
Starting point is 01:52:16 What? We had just had this conversation. Pizza Hut did an ad about that? I think it's Pizza Hut. I don't know. I just got an ad for it on YouTube where they were saying, because you were telling me it's not actually deep dish, it's Pizza Hut. I don't know. I just got an ad for it on YouTube where they were saying like, you know, because everyone said, you were telling
Starting point is 01:52:26 me like, it's not actually deep dish, it's tavern style. That's the one that... Yeah, like deep dish is Chicago style, but if you are living in Chicago and you order a pizza, it's going to be Chicago tavern style, which is thin crust, flat, and it's got it's cut in squares and it's got triangles in each corner. That's really cool. I always loved
Starting point is 01:52:42 the corners. Anyways, I just saw the ad from some chain company saying like, you let out this secret and I was thinking, I just learned about this. Maybe it was directed at you literally like,
Starting point is 01:52:51 yeah, we're looking at you at a corner. Stop talking about this on that podcast. I just want more people to know of the deliciousness that is Chicago's
Starting point is 01:52:58 Tavern Style Pizza. SA Federali says, shout out to Gina Carano. Nobody will believe my Twitter account got nuked for the same reason Laura Loomomer did.
Starting point is 01:53:06 Before that, I reached deep down, basically told Gina she was a light in the dark for all of us. Her name has a candle after ever since. It's crazy that Gina Carano was on track to be like a megastar. And she's such an amazing and kind, gentle person. I mean, she's like one of those bright spot in the universe people. She was in Deadpool, the first one. The movie was huge. And then she's in Mandalorian. The show was huge. She was on track. And then
Starting point is 01:53:30 they lied about what she said. She said, hey, don't demonize your neighbor. And then they were like, she's saying conservatives are like Jews. That's a crazy thing to say. Nuts. But she defeated Disney's motion to dismiss. She did, which is amazing. So that's bad news for Disney, because I think we might move to Discovery. And I'm willing to bet there's motion to dismiss. She did, which is amazing. So that's bad news for Disney
Starting point is 01:53:45 because I think we might move to Discovery. And I'm willing to bet there's going to be messages at Disney where they're just like, well, I just plain don't like conservatives, so fire her or something like that. Either that or they're going to settle. And she could ideally get, if they did settle, I would hope that she gets enough money
Starting point is 01:53:59 that she can do some of her own projects. Yeah, that'd be good. What I love about this story is she fought back against cancel culture. And you so very rarely see that of people. They get canceled, quote unquote, or attempted cancellation. And they cower in the corner like, oh my goodness, I'm scared. I'm just going to do this.
Starting point is 01:54:13 Well, it's not easy. No, not at all. No. But she was courageous and actually did this and fought back and slapped him. And this is what happened. And it's great that she had this victory here. Yeah, absolutely. Raymond G. Maga Stanley Jr. says, Maga, sorry, it's Maga, everybody.
Starting point is 01:54:28 I have a family reunion this weekend. Lots of Dems. I look forward to their talking points they got from NBC, ABC, etc. Will I be invited back next year? He's trying not to have to get invited back next year. Maybe we could have, like, I don't know, Hannah Clare, if you or Elad wanted to put together like the ultimate show this to your family video. And it's not a partisan thing.
Starting point is 01:54:51 It's just like, here's the media saying Kamala is the border czar. Here's them now saying she was never the border czar. So just basically showing how the media lies about everything and you can't figure out what's real. And then all you do is you take the video and you go to your friends and family and say, don't know about none of all that and i'm not here to argue politics but check out this video yeah and then be like i don't know what's
Starting point is 01:55:11 a belief that's like brandon stroka talks about that when he did the walk away thing and he said he really hated trump and then he saw the video he was trying to prove someone wrong yeah that's right someone said that trump didn't actually mock a disabled reporter and he was like, are you kidding? We've all seen it. So I'm going to pull the video up and prove it. And then he watched
Starting point is 01:55:28 the full video and was like, oh, he wasn't mocking a disabled reporter. I met two people last week in Panther Arena in that media space walking around who were red-pilled
Starting point is 01:55:36 because they tried to do research to say that Trump was racist and did the research and proved themselves wrong. Yeah. And they were like, I'm here because of that.
Starting point is 01:55:45 And I was like, wow, like they voted against him in 2020, like very recently and try to do research for their shows. Like these are reporters and it become red pill because of that. Just do your own research. Cause the other thing too, is it makes you start to wonder what else they're lying about.
Starting point is 01:55:57 Like they, you know, the Democrats always say that Trump is anti LGBT and he had the first openly gay cabinet member in Rick Grinnell. Yeah. No, he's the first, gay cabinet member in Rick Grinnell. Yeah. And he's the first presidential candidate to support gay marriage before. Barack Obama opposed it. He said, we shouldn't do this.
Starting point is 01:56:14 We should have civil unions. We shouldn't have gay marriage. Hillary Clinton still opposed it in 2016. That was funny. And they're like, we want Hillary. She's for gay rights. She literally is not, even now. And she just wants to bomb kids. Yeah, yeah. Kid bombers. Alright. Kaylee Bologna says,
Starting point is 01:56:30 Tim, we need espresso beans from Casper Coffee. Perfect name for it. Speed Freedom Blend. Just put an American flag on the bag. We have Focus with Mr. Bocas. The bags have been designed and it should be coming soon and we're very excited for this one. In memory of Mr. Bocas. And then once that comes out, what we're going to do
Starting point is 01:56:45 is we're going to do like an end all Mr. Bocas pumpkin spice experience thing where we're going to sell it at just like cost or whatever and just there you go. There's no more of them. We are planning on discontinuing it,
Starting point is 01:56:57 but then we accidentally ordered more. Good job. Yeah, because it's like the order form is just like you put in numbers. It's like you don't actually type it out. So it's like we're going to order groups one, three, five, whatever. Something like that. And then it's just like, okay, we got an extra thousand bags.
Starting point is 01:57:12 And I was like, oh. Someone came to me and said, oh, we ordered more. And I was like, whatever. But then we're discontinuing that one. And then we're going to do. I think it's someone on staff who just really loves Mr. Bocas and doesn't want his legacy to go. But we're doing the focus with Mr. Bocas. Maybe they just really loves Mr. Bocas and doesn't want his legacy to go. But we're doing the focus with Mr. Bocas.
Starting point is 01:57:27 Maybe they only like fall Mr. Bocas. I suppose. But, you know, that'll be coming soon. Boosted Yogi says, imagine Trump becoming the highest paid TikToker. Ooh. He could be. Could be. I don't think TikTokers make that much money off TikTok, though.
Starting point is 01:57:42 I don't think they do either. I know people who are like, I make money on this platform. I'm like, I don't know, man. I don't think TikTokers make that much money off TikTok, though. I don't think they do either. I know people who are like, I make money on this platform. Like, I don't know, man. I don't think so. So someone mentioned, like, aren't we banned? We were banned, but the way TikTok works is you get banned, you just make a new account. And so I think we've got, like, two different accounts for me personally and then for the show. And it's just, we just don't get anything from it.
Starting point is 01:58:01 Like, with Facebook, you make money. Facebook's actually not that bad. You can make good money on Facebook. Some people make ridiculous sums of money on Facebook. It's crazy. We don't. We make a little bit. YouTube's really good.
Starting point is 01:58:13 YouTube's probably the best. In terms of, well, no, in all seriousness, iTunes is the highest conversion, highest CPM. So when you're selling ads. It makes sense what you say when you just listen to a podcast. You just put it on. You don't stop listening to it. I listen to podcasts when I'm cleaning up the house or whatever and I don't go rush and find
Starting point is 01:58:34 the thing to zap forward. Brett Russell says, your audio has been very low since you went to the RNC. I like listening to you when I drive and on my phone while I data input, I have to crank my car volume in my phone. It's really hard to hear. I am looking right now
Starting point is 01:58:50 at the levels and we are currently in the red, just about at like minus four decibels. So that's actually, you know, we're in the red zone. What's that mean? It means any louder and Yeah, so... I don't know, man.
Starting point is 01:59:06 Maybe it's your car. Let's see if other people say the same thing, and then we'll hit it. We'll hit the computer with a hammer. You'll investigate yourself and come back and say you did nothing wrong? No, percussive maintenance will hit until it fixes the audio.
Starting point is 01:59:20 What have we here? What have we here? Is this... Dom says, Go to Trump's Instaa that's where you'll see gen z humor why is he posting stuff or is it just the comment section what's his real donald trump oh i see real donald trump what's he posting he posted a video of kamala harris let's what is this kamala harris is a failure and uh what let's see here we go this is a gen z person
Starting point is 01:59:46 voting for trump okay here's another person trump uh-huh uh here's what looks like some kind of porn star trump this is a gen z female she says the party that can't even define what a woman is wants you to vote for a woman. Make it make sense. You can't. They can't. All right, we'll grab a couple more here. What do we got? Erudice Industries says he's on right-wing social media.
Starting point is 02:00:14 You know there are feds in there. A fed befriends this lonely loser and gives him ideas, visits his house. The social media site might be the connection. Interesting. Jeremy Rutledge says, shout out to the great state of Alabama. Moving here was the best choice I ever made. If you want to get fit and train your firearm,

Starting point is 02:00:39 There's no way Libby registered in 1993. You want to defend your claim, Libby? I'm pretty sure it was 94. And then it was 96 was the election, right? Yeah. Yeah. No, I didn't register until, okay, so I went to college and I didn't register to vote then. And then I moved off
Starting point is 02:00:57 campus and I registered to vote when I moved off campus, which must have been, you're right, it wasn't 1993. It was 1996. When you registered? When I registered. I was 18.
Starting point is 02:01:09 I turned 18 in 1993, but I didn't register until 96. Why? Just because you were like, I'm not feeling it. I'm busy. What do I care? And then my mom was like, you need to vote. And I was like, oh, my God. I wish your 18-year-old self could see you now, like the one that was like, I'm just
Starting point is 02:01:24 going to be an artist and there are plays. And now you're like. You know what? My 18-year-old self could see you now. Like the one that was like, I'm just going to be an artist and there are plays. And now you're like... You know what? My 18-year-old self would have been like, all right, fine. It's fine.
