The honorable Texas Republicans, ever the bastions of civil rights and the defense of the marginalized, have been trying to pass a voter bill which would guarantee and protect the rights of all the marginalized people of Texas. But the evil Democrats who seek only to strip the rights away from the poor and the working class have fled knowing that they can do nothing to stop civil rights from reaching the marginalized people. So they, okay, I'm done with that bit, but you get the point. The media frames everything in a specific way. What's really happening is the Republicans have a couple of bills they want to pass that are going to pull back some of the lax voting provisions that were pushed through with

COVID. The Democrats fled. They don't want to give a quorum to the Republicans. You may have heard the story, but long story short, fleeing was illegal. And the Texas House has voted to arrest the Democrats the moment they return. So there we go. This is a fascinating story, because when the Republicans in Oregon fled for something about climate change, they said, you know, we're going to block quorum. We're not going to be here. You can't vote. The media across the board said Republicans were destroying democracy. Now, what are they saying? They're saying the Democrats need national support. So as long as the media is going to play that game, I will play that game right back.

The honorable and noble Republicans are trying to protect the poor, marginalized people of Texas. But these evil Democrats just want to hurt and maim and ruin and destroy. We must fight back against the evil corruption of the Democrats and their vow to destroy democracy. Yeah, OK, OK, OK. I'm half kidding. Half kidding because it actually is happening.

We got a bunch of crazy stories today. It is absolutely insane today. We got this new report coming out. The Navy got woke, went broke. A new report says the Navy went so woke, they stopped prioritizing actual war fighting training. And now they're not ready for war. As Japan is warning, the escalation between China and the US over Taiwan is getting very serious.

No joke. Now, elsewhere, South Africa, 70. I think the total amount of debt is 72. Regular citizens are shooting at rioters. It is nightmarish going on. So we're going to talk about all this. It's going to be a heck of a spicy day that's for sure and we're being joined by the incredible olivia rondo writer commentator and wrestler do you want to introduce yourself well hello thank you for having me this is so great um i've been wanting to come on here for a while i've been

cool with liz on twitter for a long time we roast each other back and forth so i think this was a long time coming but uh yeah so i write i do my own youtube show which is small uh but i write for mainly fee um i've been a contributor to the daily caller uh campus reform lone conservative porter media and the rogue review a couple others uh and i'm also a collegiate wrestler, which may provide some insight on some current events today, especially having to do with the Olympics. Yep.

Yeah, we'll talk about the Olympics. And, yes, there are new rules, and it's the issue of gender and wrestling. And the interesting thing is there are some instances where people who are born female and transition still, in some circumstance, choose to compete against females. Yet when males transition,

they choose to compete against females. It's like a one-way street. So we'll talk about that stuff, too. We also got Ian Chilling. Yeah, what up, everybody? Ian Crossland over here. I'm looking forward to talking about... Ian's not moving at all. Time to fix it up. Let me tell you from the distance. I'm looking forward to watching these Democrats talking about ian's not moving at all something's wrong with his camera time to fix it up hold on

one second let me tell you from the distance uh i'm looking forward to watching these democrats why does this happen it's a weird thing only with ian exact their uh their duty uh to to perform civil disobedience that's not the issue the issue is the computer you guys there's get what i'm feeding you something that happens with with the computer where Ian's camera freezes. Maybe I'll move seats. Yeah, you're going to have to move seats. Ian has been erased. Anyway, the Democrats of Texas are establishing civil disobedience,

which is their duty to flee. The duty to flee state. They have a duty to represent their constituents. Yeah, they do. Tim speaks the truth. Yeah, and by fleeing, they're not doing that. It's true. Like, even if they were to put in a vote that was saying

no to these provisions, that's how the process works. My point is saying it's illegal is not enough to say that it was wrong because the American Revolution was illegal, and I argue that it was right. All right, Ian's going to put his hand on that. I'm moving. Yeah, he's also moving, so we're actually getting his camera working. The circumstance

is certainly nuanced. The issue is how the media frames everything, how they manipulate the conversation. And if someone wants to stage a filibuster, I've got no issue with that for the most part. I get it. It's part of the process. But the Democrats are the ones who are saying to get rid of the filibuster, then at the state level are cheering on the Democrats who are filibustering.

What up? Yeah. How's your camera? Is it working? I'll be resituating. Oh, there's Ian. He's alive. Yeah, there we go. You can guess what kind of clothes he's wearing. I don't know what's wrong. It's not the camera, it's the computer. There's something about Ian's camera.

It just freezes on him from a single frame from the show the night before, which makes no sense because we conclude the show the night before. It randomly pulls up a frame from the middle of night before, which makes no sense because we conclude the show the night before. It's really weird. It randomly pulls up a frame from the middle of the show for some reason. Freaking weird, man. It is weird, isn't it? I'm an alien. Yeah, it's true. I think Ian's doing it on purpose.

Alright, we also got Lydia pushing buttons. Yeah, I am technically pushing buttons in the corner. Now we've got Ian figured out and I'm excited to have another lady on the show. I always love having my girls on. I need some female representation over here. And don't forget, go to TimCast.com. Become a member. We're going to have a bonus segment for the member.

This is the big story from NBC5, DFW, Texas House. Texas House votes to track down Democrats, arrest them when they return to Texas. House Democrats can't be arrested until they return to the state, the governor says.

So this is the update because initially, Governor Greg Abbott was like, we will arrest them, mark my words. Now the Texas House was like, all in favor of arresting them. And they're like, yes, the Democrats are going to get arrested. Here's the funny thing about all this. It's a filibuster, basically. Apparently, Texas has already passed the bill anyway, the voter bills. The media is trying to make it seem like Republicans are trying to strip away the rights of regular people. The Republicans have no real counter to this because the mainstream media lies all the time and conservative media doesn't. Oh, I can already hear the collective screams of all the leftists who are hate watching this show, claiming that all conservative media

does is lie. Yeah, then why isn't Tucker Carlson coming out saying Republicans are trying to pass voter protection bills to protect the rights of marginalized people? But the left thinks that they should take those rights away. No, he doesn't do that. The right never does that. And that's one of the reasons the left keeps taking because they keep putting pressure. They keep doing these propaganda campaigns. Well, at the very least, Republicans say they'll arrest these Democrats who are what are they?

They're fugitives. Yeah, apparently now. Yeah. Well, I mean, I guess they, they're fugitives? Yeah. Apparently now. Yeah. Well, I mean, I guess they're going to get arrested, right? Does this mean that they're officially arrested? Like, does this, I mean, does this mean, like, do they have to, like, vote on this declaration that they're going to arrest them?

They did vote on it. This is it. They voted. So are they on the lam now? Yes. Oh, wow. Well, that was why Gene What's-His-Name was tweeting about his first meal as a fugitive. Oh, it's a Caesar salad. Oh, my gosh.

And you get Kamala Harris and you get the national level Democrats and all of their cronies in media who love licking their feet saying, like, these are heroes helping protect the rights of people. Let me explain something very, very simple to everybody. What the Republicans are doing actually is to protect the rights of people who want to vote. What the Democrats are doing are purposefully damaging voter integrity, which confuses and mucks up the system and makes it very difficult for people's votes to be counted properly, for the system to work properly. There's no chain of custody on some of these votes. They have curbside voting, universal mail-in voting, 24-hour voting. Not only that, it's really expensive.

You've got to maintain staffing for these things and security for these things. So what the Republicans are doing is they're trying to pull back only a little bit of those special provisions, which effectively means the Republicans are still losing no matter what. This is the power of the Democratic Party. They win no matter what happens.

If they don't get what they're asking for right now, the Republicans only curtail a little bit of the advanced voting stuff that Democrats got. And if the Republicans back down, the Democrats get indefinite COVID special voting access. So I don't know. There are people who are surprised I'm not a fan of the Republican Party at this point. Granted, it's Texas. My mind consistently goes to the military-industrial liberal economic order developed 1946 it's basically the party of the warmonger i mean i

thought of those neocons growing up in the early 2000s and now it's just accepting that this group like bill crystal and like i don't know dick dick cheney's not really involved with the democratic party project is that what it is? No, just like those creepy weirdos. Friends with Raytheon, and now they got their tentacles inside the brains of the DNC. I mean, they always did. Did they? Yeah, so it's funny when people talk about what the Democrats are doing, and I'm like, you know, the Democrats and the Republicans are doing all of that forever.

The only thing that changed was that Donald Trump ran full speed and slammed his body into the front doors and broke them down. And then with Trump throwing himself at the doors and getting in, people believe the Republican Party somehow, like, was better. They're not. I just saw an article that

said that the DNC is proposing that they're going to go through people's text messages to look for COVID misinformation. I mean, that's... That's absolute disgusting overreach of power. Oh, that's beyond this. This is it. The Democrats are like communist authoritarians at this point.

It's disgusting. But do you really believe they haven't been doing that this whole time? Good point. They're just announcing it now, but... No, no, no. They're going to block your texts. Like, that's something I've never seen. Yeah.

No, that is on a whole other level. Unless you live in Cuba. Or in cuba blocking your phone call like if you just couldn't make a phone call because your last phone call you said some stuff in it redacted well definitely we should get into that but let's let's talk about what's going on in texas we got the story from nbc they say with only 80 of 150 house members present tuesday the house lacks the necessary two-thirds of legislators to do business a call of the house motion was called that compels all members to the House to appear in the chamber. Those who do not appear are subject to arrest. The call of the House was approved 76 to 4, with four Democrats in the House chamber voting nay. Following the vote,

the doors to the House chamber were locked, preventing anyone else from coming or going. Oh, wow. Yeah, this is no joke. State troopers in the Texas Department of Safety may now be appointed to go look for the missing legislators at their respective businesses and homes. So they are on the land. But they'll be unlikely to find any of them since they left the state the day before. Texas law enforcement is unlikely to track the lawmakers to D.C. since they lack jurisdiction

in the nation's capital. During an interview on Fox News Monday night, Governor Greg Abbott said, Once the Democrats who fled the state return to Texas, they will be arrested and brought back to the Capitol. They're quitters. That is not the way we do things, Abbott said in the television interview. This is fascinating. You know why?

The Democrats are claiming, we've got to get rid of the filibuster. The filibuster is a problem, they say, at the federal level. But this is basically what they're doing. You can charter a plane and flee you can be you can become a fugitive and flee your actual duty in texas and i mean this is worse than a filibuster it's like miles it's it's it's it's yeah it's a hardcore filibuster for sure like uh so the way the filibuster basically works in uh in in the senate if someone says hey i filibuster then they need 60 votes to overcome the filibuster basically works in uh in in the senate if someone says hey i filibuster then they need 60 votes to overcome the filibuster i guess they did that because they didn't like the idea

of someone standing up and talking for 30 hours which just shut downs the vote like it ends the session and so i guess the democrats tried things like that you know trying they they they've delayed the vote they've skipped out on the vote and they keep doing this because they've lost texas now here's here's the problem, man. You can't function this way. We can't. How is Texas? How is any state?

How is the government supposed to function when people are just like, if I don't get what I want, I quit? I'll walk out. So is this come from the Oregon Republicans doing this to fight against whatever it was there? It was climate change. Yeah, it was a climate change thing. Did they set the precedent here? And this is just the Democrats that are carrying it on? No, I think this is just a normal tactic.

But it's interesting. You see this and the core issue here is voting. Like we're not even talking about policy anymore. This is literally just I hate you and you hate me. And let's hate each other as much as possible. If they were like, you know, we need a bill that like fixes the roads. And Democrats were like, but you're not going to fix the roads. Right. We argue over policy. Like that makes makes sense now they're just like the

democrats are like we want no security in our election we want people to just get a ballot sent to a random house and if you disagree you're a racist oh yeah so that narrative didn't work if these people these these democratic politicians that fled if they're doing like what their conscious dictates then i guess they're doing the right thing for them. But should then they be removed from office because they can't functionally participate ethically? I don't believe they actually think they're doing the right thing. I think it's a virtue signal. I don't think they genuinely believe that they're saving the day.

I mean, let's be real. Yeah, it's campaigning. Their constituents in their blue areas are going to be like, yay, clapping and cheering for it. Nothing's going to change. Nothing's going to get done. What are they going to do? This is how insane it is. What are they going to do, stay out of Texas for a year?

I don't know. Because Abbott said, we will keep calling special sessions until the election. We'll keep doing it. So that means the Democrats from Texas have to have fled the state, and they can't return. What's a special, what do you call it? A special what? A special session. What's that do?

Did I say elect in a special session? Special session, yeah. So the way it works is there's the normal process by which there's a session of the House, like most states and jurisdictions have this. And if the governor chooses, he can convene a special session and call back the state Senate and the state representatives to come in and do their votes and everything. So a lot of states have that system. So Governor Greg Abbott, they're Republicans. Republicans have Texas. So he said, OK, special session it is. And then the Democrats were like, no. And they ran away. Now there's no quorum. Now they can't hold a vote. So why don't they just treat it as abstentions?

That's a good point. I think they should should. I think they – I was saying earlier they should have – they should vote on this bill right now. They should put it – someone should draft it up. If you are absent for at least three sessions in a row, you forfeit your position as a representative from your district, and you are removed or something like that. Yeah. You start abstaining. Maybe you could have someone come in and vote for you. Maybe. At the very least, send a proxy.

But then why are they getting taxpayer money? Yeah. Imagine you're a taxpayer in Texas and these people are like, we're getting paid. And they're going and partying on private jets. Yeah. And their salaries should probably be halted while they're refusing to do their job.

Good point. Yeah, look, I'm all for the civil disobedience, right? But, hey, that has consequences. You get arrested, you get fined, you get all that stuff. Where in the private sector would you be able to say, I'm just not coming into work, and not only that, I'm not coming until you give me what I want? It sounds like a union. And you have to still pay me. Exactly, still have to pay me.

Nowadays, actually, a lot of places in the private sector. Okay, well, I'm old-fashioned, I guess. Yeah, people do this all the time where they'll be like, I've decided that you're a bigot, so I'm not coming into work for two weeks. And the boss goes, okay, okay. Wow. Whatever you say. Diversity training.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah, there was one of the companies I worked at, who I won't name for this one's a bit specific. There was a woman who threatened retaliation against anybody who who told her she had to work and so apparently she literally did no work and she got paid a ton of money but what was the reason every all the bosses were scared that they would get a harassment complaint and they were like but she was saying they were sexist or harassing her or what yeah okay but like i don't think it was as overt like she walked in and said, I will say this about you.

But apparently upper management was scared that they knew this woman would do it. And it was implied. So they were just like, here's your salary. You can have whatever you want, do whatever you want, have a nice day. And she just got paid to do nothing. Female privilege. And I remember talking to one staff and they were like, this person literally doesn't work here but is here. Just eats food and then gets paid and then leaves.

And then I was like, so why are they paying this person and they're like because she threatens them you know they're they're scared so that's like implied blackmail which apparently is not a crime you can if you if you're subtle enough about it you can get away with no i mean it's not blackmail to say i will report you for harassment right you're just doing your job you're doing the right thing at that point. Even if they're not harassing. Can I say that? I will report you for harassment. In parentheses would say if you actually harassed me, but you didn't.

The line is very thin, and it really just depends on whether or not the feds want to go after you or the authorities, whatever in the state. But if you threaten somebody with accusing them of a crime, it could be extortion or blackmail. But depending on how you frame it, then they can't accuse the person of you know so the issue is if you're an employee and in this instance you don't actually demand anything you just say i've had it up to here with this harassment and you look around they say i'm not going to that person so you get a person who just anyway the democrats this is my problem with the Democrats is the DNC is obviously corrupt. Since I've seen what they did to Bernie Sanders in 2016 and probably so many

other things, you see the DNC stuff. But that doesn't mean that every Democrat is culpable, corrupt, or even has bad intentions. There should be some amazing people that happen to be in the Democratic Party. Like, obviously, Tulsi Gabbard. I think she was incredible. Is she still there, though? No she rolled i think i think it mostly does i do like

the republican party today is very very different like trump came in and smashed through those doors yeah you had the neocons a lot of those people fled to the democratic party all right but i'll put it this way if like you know look man i know i know the cartels murder tons and tons of people doesn't mean every cartel member is a bad person, right? Well, that's actually a good point. No. No. I don't think – no.

Some people are drafted into that lifestyle kind of against their will, and they don't want to do the damage, and they're kind of forced to eventually get out of it. That's a good point, but I was making – I was being facetious a little bit. The Democratic Party is not a cult of – well, actually. Okay, well, the Democratic Party is bad, but you can always walk away. You choose to be a Democrat. As far as I know, Democrats aren't going to hunt you down for being an apostate to the Democratic Party. But I think the Democratic Party – it's really fascinating to see this meme where people say that the left and the right both view each other as the problem. I saw someone said the left thinks the right is abusing its power and will stop at nothing and the right thinks the left is doing it.

People need to realize. Hold on a minute. The people who say that are the people who are like sitting back with their feet up watching Police Academy on rerun, like on repeat, not really paying attention to what's going on, looking at the screen and seeing liberals and conservatives fighting, and they're going, they just think each other are bad. Well, it's true they do, but one side's objectively right and one side's objectively wrong, and the Democrats are psychopaths. The Republicans are do-nothings.

The Democrats are insane. What they did to Bernie was basically like made an apostate out of him, it seemed like, in 2016. He just bent over and took, he just let them just take it to such a disappointment yeah man why didn't he run independent i'm gonna be scared for my whole life i'll be wondering 2016 he could have went independent and won that race he just sold out he's just a sellout that's it how many houses does bernie sanders have three i think it's three three yeah one that's worth over 1.2 million or something. Oh, really?

I don't know. I'm guessing with inflation maybe. I think he's got like a townhouse in D.C. for work. He's got his house in Vermont and he's got a summer home. He has wife's parents. You write a book. You can be a millionaire too. That's right.

You write a book. So where did Bernie go when the Democrats started going crazy and demanding allegiance? And Bernie, I remember that photo of Bernie in the gym with that really crappy banner. He's like, I'm running for president. And then he runs. He gets really, really popular because people saw him as a populist. And he was. And then he had a meeting with the DNC

and he was like, okay, I'll do whatever you say, Hillary Clinton. And then he endorsed her. Yeah, the Democratic machine is broken. The neocon Republicans fled to the Democrats and now they're panicking because there's like the gates to – it reminds me of that battle in Lord of the Rings where the orcs are trying to break into – what is it? Helm's Deep? Yeah.

That's what it is. And it's probably a bad analogy because in this instance the orcs are the good guys breaking down the door. But the point is the Democrats are in the fortress, and they've crossed the bridge. They've broken the doors down. And now the elites are freaking out because with a lot of the populist Republicans and Trump's popularity, they can't do anything about it.

Now, Steve Bannon made a good point. Actually, I don't think it was Steve Bannon. But I can't remember who it was that populism only goes so far. Was this Darren B? I think it was maybe. No, that was Darren. I think it was Darren, yeah. But I can't remember who it was that populism only goes so far. Was this Darren B? I think it was maybe. No, that was Darren. I think it was Darren, yeah. Yeah, populism only gets you so much.

You can have all the people on your side, but if you don't have any of the elite factions, you struggle to get anything done. That's true. Yes. Yeah, the way that people kind of cognitively dissonanted when Hillary'santed when, when the Hillary's emails dropped, I'm obsessed with Hillary's emails. I read a bunch of them, John Podesta emails, stuff about Sidney Blumenthal,

getting us into war in Libya with Osprey, his company, Osprey global solutions is like gun running company. They basically coerced our secretary of state to get us into war so that they could profit. And people didn't do anything about it. People just sat there and watch then i realized okay maybe we need populism maybe we need emotional sway to get people to do things but like

you're saying if you don't have the institutions which we kind of do we do but i mean this is an institution tim cast is an institution you know it's bro we're like we're the we're the rebels yeah like on on on the ragtag group using makeshift cargo ships to go up against the Death Star. Yeah, this is the Millennium Falcon. Hey, I'll take it. That's why I find it so hilarious when you have these leftist YouTubers who are just sitting there

ragging on the right all the time. And it's like, imagine... We need to parody this, maybe. We should do it. We should totally get... We should make that comedy show we're talking about with Seamus where we could have, like,

they're on the Death Star and it's like Empire podcasters making fun of the poor people who are fighting back, insulting these Jedi, a bunch of religious fanatics, you know, with their order and their forces,

you know, and they think... You know, they're fascists. They're all fascists. They want to indoctrinate kids and it's just like a bunch of imperial guys on the death star and they're blowing up planets that's basically what it is that's why i find it funny when you have these progressive youtubers uh maybe not necessarily progressive but some of them but the really establishment democrat ones where they're just like haha trump is bad and the democrats are good

it's like orange man bad no more mean tweets at least trump is gone and that reminds me i made this tweet like maybe a week ago uh just expressing the cognitive dissonance that they have saying like oh at least i didn't vote for the president that said that you know i will grab them by the p word i'll grab them by the who but i voted for the president that said that if you don't vote for me, you're not black. Black people can't use the internet. I mean, he disrespects minorities and black people on a weekly basis. He doesn't know where he is.

What was the latest thing Kamala said? That poor people can't use fax machines? They can't Xerox. Because they can't make it to Kinko's. Kinko's has been out of business for years. That just shows how out of touch she is. A little bit, yeah. And then it was –

She doesn't have a smartphone, does she? I don't think so. She's a boomer. No, the one that flew under the radar was maybe a week or two ago, Biden was saying, well, you know, black people don't want to get the vaccine because they've been experimented on. You know, the Tuskegee Airmen. Yes.

The Airmen? Uh-huh. The Tuskegee Airmen. Yes! The Airmen? Uh-huh. The Tuskegee Airmen. That was awesome. That was fantastic. When I say awesome, I don't mean like in a positive way. No, I wasn't awesome.

I was just like, my jaw was hanging open like, did he just call like one of the most heroic like World War II pilots syphilitic experimentees? But the other guy is racist. The other guy is racist.

You had to get him out. It was the bad tweets, the mean tweets. Well, you had your choice between grabbing by the hoo-hoo and trinidad shopping pressure. And, you know, the thing about Trump was like, the thing about Trump is like, I mean, dude's going to run again. He's off the rails a little bit in terms of like, he's like really out there and like, ah, and he's angry.

He's a fighter, but he's a fighter. And he really does want to want to do what he says he wants to do. And, you know, and he's not part of the establishment in the same way that, you know, Joe Biden has always been a part of the establishment. Certainly Donald Trump is an elite. And I don't know who's on his side, but he went for the American people instead of the wealthy elites. So what I mean is I don't know which elites are on his side. I know he's got the people, 75 million of them. That was truly crazy to me. The people I knew, there was one person who I met at Black Lives Matter protest.

I saw her posting on Twitter and I was like, are you voting? Are you a Trump supporter? And she was like, yep, 100% all the way. And she's like sending memes and stuff. I was like, wow. A lot of people started waking up to what was going on. And they were like, dude, I will take trump over anything the machine has to offer why bro the dnc is crooked yeah i mean the rnc don't get me wrong they just trump's just taking a sledgehammer to the republican establishment he's kind of got

them in a chokehold right now they can't go against him that's a funny image actually yeah for sure i really like that some of don Donald Trump's personal attributes are kind of spreading, like with Ron DeSantis. Literally, the hand gestures that Ron DeSantis is using, like the whole little accordion thing. He's adopted this. He's certainly a kingmaker now. So we'll see how that forms the GOP going forward.

I kind of wish he would help develop another candidate rather than try and run again, because I feel like they hate him. And by they, this establishment media organization, they hate him so much that they'll really go out of their way to manipulate the media so that he doesn't get in. Like he's not going to get the tweet again. They'll do this to anybody though. They'll do it to DeSantis. They'll do it to Alan West. They'll do it to anybody, right? The thing though, the thing is why I said this before that Trump shouldn't run and DeSantis should. Now, I don't know if I completely agree with that anymore.

That was at the time I was like, here's why I think Trump shouldn't run. As much as the media will lie, cheat and steal, regular people are triggered by Trump. He's the evil orange man. They just start convulsing and veins are bursting at the thought of Trump. DeSantis, they're going to go, who? DeSantis, he's far right. And they'll go, who? You can't trigger someone off DeSantis. It's not easy. Because they're going to be like, I don't know who that is.

But Donald Trump's been on TV. He's this high-profile figure. They go nuts against him. And DeSantis doesn't have the same statements and tweets. He doesn't have the mean tweets. He doesn't have the mean tweets. It's true, too. DeSantis is a calmer, more presentable, and easygoing and younger figure.

I mean, he's not like Mike Pence, but he's more like Mike Pence than like Donald Trump. Pence is awful. Calm and reserved. Yeah, Pence was always kind of a do-nothing, in my opinion. He just kind of stood there. I met him once. He's a nice guy.

He seems nice. Yeah, he's nice enough. He was very quiet. He was afraid of saying the. He's a nice guy. He seems nice. Yeah, he's nice. But he was very quiet. He was afraid of saying the wrong thing. He was quiet. Possible. Yeah, now do you see that CPAC did a poll? It was like a straw poll, like a primary vote.

DeSantis won, right? No, no. Trump got 70%. DeSantis got 21%. Guess how much Mike Pence got? Zero? One. Zero.

Zero. Yeah. Was it like zero point something? I don't know. It just said zero. Close enough. One. Zero. Zero. Yeah. It was like zero point something. I don't know. It just said zero. Close enough to zero. Approaching zero. Dude, somebody was chatting.

They were like, Tim Pool says he won't go to Texas because the libs are moving there. But then he says he goes to West Virginia and won't vote Republican. And it's like, yes, all of that makes perfect sense. When you're picking your VP, what's the point? What do you want out of a VP? Why did Obama pick Biden? They're the president of the Senate, right? I believe so.

So you want someone with a highbreaker? Yeah. You want someone with a senatorial experience? Is that a big part of it? Not necessarily. I think about you want someone that's more dangerous to the establishment than you are so that they won't try and kill you. What?

That's my thought. Like, if you want to be like, no, there's no way they want to put the VP in power. Mike Pence's establishment. Yeah. So is Biden. I was about to say, Biden was clearly picked. I don't think Obama wanted him at all. I mean, he was, y'all know that quote from, like, I think 2007 where Biden's saying,

oh, well, Obama's the first clean, articulate, nice, well-spoken African-American. He said that about Obama. I don't think they liked each other. Can we go deep on Biden's racism? Because this BLM is like a thing right now. And Biden has said massively racist stuff over the last 50 years, 170 years of his life. The orange man is gone. Didn't Biden call black men predators?

Yeah, he did. And didn't Hillary Clinton too? Super predators. Hillary Clinton said super predators, right? That's a step up, right? Clinton said super predators. And I got hot sauce in my bag.

Oh my gosh. That was weird. I don't understand. Don't you get it? Because black people like hot sauce and chicken. What if she said she had watermelon in her purse?

Oh, wow. That would be too obvious. But what's the difference to be like, I got hot sauce? No, that was clearly a reference to black people putting hot sauce on chicken. I used to drink Frank's Red Hot.

My friend was like, I drink hot sauce. I was like, oh, that's cool. I'll try. So I started drinking it. I got my grape drink right here. Oh, my gosh. It's a lot of salt, though. It's ridiculous.

She might as well have just said she was like, I eat fried chicken all the time. Oh, did you see what ikea did remember that no ikea did juneteenth celebration and they served watermelon and fried chicken and collard greens and collard greens delicious food i'm not mad at it you know what you know what really bums me out though i'm like dude like fried chicken watermelon collard greens those are delicious yeah that kinded with a little salt and olive oil. Yeah, that kind of smacks. Isn't it crazy that like Ikea is like, we're going to have these things.

And I'm like, that sounds pretty good. And they're like, oh, but we're going to get rid of it now because it's racist. I'm like, come on, man. It's good food. It's good food. Who doesn't? The funny thing about the stereotype is like, who doesn't like fried chicken? Vegans?

Maybe. But they still like it. They just don't eat it. Yeah, exactly. They'll eat vegan fried chicken. eat it yeah yeah exactly vegan fried chicken oh yeah actually like uh like adam and nish used to get the vegan fried the vegan chicken wings all the time because like fried chicken is good you just don't want to eat the meat i went vegan for like eight months man when you get a taste of that meat that vitamin b oh it's so good it's

good but you can tell these elites you can tell hillary clinton has never eaten a piece of fried chicken or any good american fare in her entire life she eats lizard food or whatever flies she does not have hot sauce in her purse definitely not no i just imagine like hillary remember that story about hillary on on the on the she was on the air force jet of some sort and they'd like like high-ranking air force officers are working on the plane and she is according to, I guess, she holds up her wine glass and goes, like trying to get some, like, lieutenant to pour her wine for her. And they're like, dude, we are, like, officers. But then they did it.

I'm just imagining, like, her being on a plane. And then her going, and the guy bring up a big bag of flies and, like, ladybugs. And then her just tongue was, like, eating them up. No, Hillary Clinton is not a lizard we're joking we're making fun of her for being cold and sociopath the amygdala is the lizard part of your brain i believe everyone has it it seems like in our evolutionary process we used to be more just like hunting and like seeking meat and so we developed that area and then over time the rest

of the brain kind of grew around and we developed thought and more lizard brain. Hillary only has the lizard brain. Yeah, she overdeveloped amygdala. Did you ever see that photo of Hillary Clinton in a regular person's house? And she's just standing there like... She's looking at the kitchen, and she has... This is what a white refrigerator looks like. Wow.

Have you seen that, Ian? No. She's walking through the hallway, and she stops to look at their their kitchen and she has this look of disgust and disbelief. She's like so much gripping. Yeah. Where am I? The pores. Yeah, the pores.

It's like that Futurama joke where the judge is like, the only poor people I want to hear about are the people who tend to my pores at the spa. Oh, my. That's how I envision Hillary Clinton. When she's not eating bugs, of course. Right. I forgot what we were talking about because we were making fun of Democrats. Biden's racism. Oh, of course. I forgot what we were talking about because we were making fun of Democrats. Biden's racism. Oh, that's right.

But I felt like it's like banging on a drum that everyone already has heard the song. Yeah. But maybe it's reaching new people. We can't talk about it enough. I mean, he got elected on the fact that he was the supposed anti-racist president. And he said, if you don't vote for me, you ain't black. He said that to people. Literally.

I love that meme over there on the from g prime it's the uh it's the the comic where the black woman's like i won't vote for you and then biden like yeah and he like sucks the black out of her skin that's what happened to me you know you know ian that's why i'm so light you mentioned that it's like banging on the drum but it's the same song everyone's heard but it's kind of like fortunate son how like in every single reference to vietnam you play fortunate son oh great song yeah right like yeah we're talking about vietnam you gotta play fortunate son so you know it might be the same song i'm overgoing to be like joe biden is like seriously racist his son is a crackhead like literally hunter biden is a corrupt crackhead who was

selling the family name this is who they choose against against Donald Trump because he said mean words. Isn't that hilarious? Wow. Grabbed by the hoo-ha. Hoo-hoo. Hoo-hoo. The hoo-ha. Well, FBI is not worried about crackhead hunting. They're worried about seizing Legos that are still in the box, unassembled. Oh, isn't that amazing?

No, I haven't heard about this. So the first story came out that they found a fully assembled Lego version of the Capitol at some guy's house or something. And then everyone was like all shocked, like he was building a diagram of something of the Capitol. Like, what house or something. And then everyone was like all shocked like he was building a diagram of something of the Capitol. What's your point about the Legos? But then it turns out it was just a box of Lego set. They went in someone's house and found a box of Legos and were like, ah, wow.

And the FBI seized it and it's unassembled in the box. From who? When did this happen? Just recently. What the heck? They were trying to apply that. It was like this criminal mastermind who had

this Lego set and he was like using it to plan something crazy. Like a movie. It was just a box of Legos and it was a kid's toy. Like literally any kid

would have. You know what would be funny? It's like the feds show up and they go into Ian's room and find a sketch pad and he's got a picture of a werewolf about to attack Santa Claus

and they're like, oh my God, he's violent. What does he plan A? What does it mean? And then instead of telling people what the picture was, the media reports like a podcast co-host has violent depictions of famous figures being attacked and brutalized. And then it's like it turns out it's a werewolf fighting Santa Claus. It's just nonsense. Yeah, but it would just show the close-up on the neck with the claw ripping it open.

No, it wouldn't turn at all. And they cut out the part where Santa then turns into a werewolf because it was like confusing to the general public. I think that if someone was really going to plan something, they would use like SketchUp,

like a digital thing. Anything but Lego. Yeah, come on. They wouldn't use Legos. I don't know if Lego is to scale of the actual Capitol building. I'm sure it's not. I don't know what's more to scale of the actual Capitol building. I don't know what's more terrifying is thinking that someone

would have been planning something or that the FBI would stoop to seizing Legos. Yeah. And that the media reported it was fully assembled and they were all like gasp. All these journalists on Twitter, these blue checks were like, oh, you got a fully constructed Lego

version of the capital and then it's like oh it was just a box it was like well they're walgreens you know there totally is a silver lining here though like where we were super scared of the fbi like tracking us and being oh they're clearly incompetent they're super competent holy moly nothing to worry about remember when the guy uh the nascar guy had the garage pull rope oh and like a dozen feds run to the garage like oh and they find the rope and like oh oh this was right after like the jesse smollett thing right wasn't i don't think it wasn't right after okay relatively close like the feds swoop in and they start investigating a garage pull rope and then they're like oh

it's not a noose it's a garage pull rope which everybody has and shouldn't be surprised by wow but there's an interesting thing about you mentioned biden is the anti-racist candidate supposedly well no but anti-racist means pro-racial discrimination that's ibram x kendi's ideology oh right because if you're anti-racist you and you believe that all white people inherently have some type of thing wrong with them that makes them hate everybody else if you said about any other race replace white with any other group that's racist so here's what's fascinating though imagine what kind of person sees a garage pull rope and then has like a panic attack and calls 9-1-1 you have issues yeah you have issues well and even if it is even

if it like seriously looked like a news why was why is your first thought it's because i'm black that there is some somebody left this rope in my garage that just that's that's the indoctrination man yeah that's what they're like they're indoctrinating kids and people to believe this stuff that if you there was one where it was like they said they found a noose at a construction site you remember this one and it was literally just like an it was like an extension cable hanging down where someone like tied a knot off. Something totally innocuous. And someone saw a loop and they were like, Did they say it was a hate crime towards minorities?

Well, the media reports like, Noose found at construction site. It's a noose symbol, a hate symbol. The symbol of the noose. ADL is going to put it up on their website. The symbol of a noose is a hate sign? Yeah. The OK hand sign is now listed by these organizations.

So I'm thinking the garage pole rope probably had like a little loop at the bottom of it, right? That you could grab and pull. Like a handle. All noosed out. So, of course, this tiny little thing is a noose. I don't know where we're going, man. Is it 70% obesity in the United States right now? 60% to 70%?

What? I'm just thinking about if we needed to call up a military. If we were really serious. So random. So random. We have a lot 70 percent. I'm just thinking about if we needed to call up a military, if we were really serious. So random. We have a lot of topics. I see it. Just the ineptitude of our military right now. You're talking about the FBI, which is our internal police state.

And this has been on my mind the entire show, which is why I'm blurting it out right now. We're actually going to get to this. We have a segment. Oh, good. Let's go for it. We were supposed to talk about- If we really have an obese we're supposed to talk about joe biden being racist joe biden is a racist the most racist president thank you is he the most racist president in the last 50 years yeah well nixon probably i remember remember when i talked about

that guy in new york where he said donald trump is the least racist he's a black dude he's like donald trump is the least racist president we have ever had in this country. He is. But he's still racist. And I was like, what does that mean? He's like, oh, come on, man. He's like, you know, people are racist. Donald Trump's an old guy.

So he's probably got some, you know, he's got some stereotype beliefs. You can see the kind of way he acts. But let's be real. He's the least racist president we've ever had. I was like, that's actually an interesting point. Like, even if you think that he's racist in some way, admitting that way, admitting that he was like, bro, we had presidents who had slaves. And I was like, oh, that's a good point, actually. But he's literally Hitler.

Yeah. No, I mean the media. These people live in this fantasy realm where they're cowering in the basement. It's fascinating. I love this. When I tweeted, I tweeted that Democrat guy who was like, I'm a fugitive hiding in the airport. I tweeted something like, he's a fugitive because he's trying to, because he illegally blocked a voter integrity bill to protect the rights of marginalized people to vote. And then someone responded, all offended, some blue check, like, remember when you used to be a journalist?

And I'm like, oh, no, like over target much because the way the democrats and the media works is that everything is always framed as if republicans are like goblins going like trying to like destroy and burn everything to the ground my problem about talking about the dn the democrats like they're villains sometimes because i think that if we if i indulge and talk like ripping on democrats then they're going to indulge in ripping on republicans and then they're going to indulge in ripping on democrats and it's going to propel this. But like those people, it's not the people. The people are cool a lot of times. But the system is messed. You may be a gentleman and a scholar.

Thank you, sir. So you're like an elf. And the orcs are coming in and brutally murdering people. And you're like, but we must fight with honor. Congratulations. people and you're like but we might we must fight with honor congratulations you know how that that honor works for you when the ninja throws the the the dirt in your face in the middle of the fight oh you think i'm being too honorable i do like the consistency i would i wouldn't say like all democrats are evil or plotting or anything i would just say politicians are i'm not i'm not

partisan in that way is it that's true that the system forces you to become that way or that people like that tend to enter? I think people like that tend to take advantage of the system. So I think it's a little bit of both. Yeah, and you know the other thing too is that people crave conflict. So if you're a politician and you're just like, I don't want to engage in any bickering. I'm just here to get something done. Here's the bill my constituents want. No one's going to care.

Boring. No one will know your name. Yeah, you're not fighting. You're not going to war i mean thomas massey's feisty he's on twitter and he's tweeting all this stuff oh he's pretty rad he is but he won't he won't get down into uh i guess the trenches and actually play their game so to speak that's good to a certain degree i guess my thing is you know the republicans are like now now let's not go overboard and condemn the democrats as evil and the democrats are literally like so these evil mfers need to be like booted from politics yeah yeah literally the turn the other cheek method i thought sometimes i think that

that's like christian that church propaganda to be like submit don't don't defend yourself against aggression and then so all these people become like slaves to the church when in reality if someone hits you in the face uh you better take evasive action and figure out how to make that not happen again that's right otherwise you just get beaten but you have right now okay across the country we had this pandemic and so then everybody basically said okay okay let's make voting a bit easier because of the pandemic so we'll do universal mail-in voting we'll do curbside we'll do 24 hours what, what Texas was doing. All right, now that we have the vaccine out and the rates are declining and Texas has reopened completely, Texas goes, so here's what we're going to do. We're not going to remove all of those provisions. We'll remove some of them.

And the Democrats started just foaming at the mouth and screaming and vomiting all over themselves. They're trying to suppress the vote. So what happens is there's two there's two principal outcomes. Now, the Republicans give Democrats half of what they want or all of what they want. Great. Bravo, Texas, I guess. So when I say I don't want to go to Texas because of all these liberals that are moving there, let me explain something very simple to a lot of people don't get this.

Joe Rogan moves from California to Texas. And there's that comic I mentioned frequently where he's carrying the liberal policies suitcase. Well, a lot of people say, yeah, but come on, you really think Joe Rogan's going to vote in all that stuff? Maybe not. Joe's a smart guy. But what about all the people that get hired because of the industry he brings to Austin? What about when Joe Rogan says, I'm moving to Austin, and then a bunch of people go like, there's going to be new shows, there's going to be comedy venues, there's going to be jobs and industry and opportunity. So they start moving. Then you get Elon Musk, and he's like, I'm going to move to Texas because California is oppressive. Is Elon Musk going to vote for these people?

Maybe he doesn't. He's kind of a weirdo. But what about all of his employees from California who then have to move to Texas? Of course they'll vote for all this stuff. So I'm not going to go there. And here's what I explained when I said I don't necessarily want to vote for Republicans. I might. The Republicans got me in 2020. We'll see what happens this time around. The problem is just by virtue of being Republican doesn't guarantee a vote for me. You got to fight for something. I'm sick and tired of these Republicans who go in there and just wag their fingers and literally do nothing. Thank you. Thank you. Because Trump did win me in 2020. That was the first time I was actually old enough to vote. So my first vote ever was for Donald Trump.

So I've only ever voted for Republicans that one time. But it's not guaranteed. I'm a registered independent. It's not guaranteed. And especially since we're talking about Texas,as greg abbott was horrible on the lockdowns in the beginning he had people thrown in jail in the beginning there was this um hair salon owner shelly luther who was thrown in jail and then she ended up running for i think state senate i believe her state representative and then greg abbott throws all this money at her

republican establishment opponent so you can see the type of people the type of republicans that are running texas i mean they're really no different than the Democrats. Now, I'll give the Republicans one thing. First, I'll say all the neocons were just awful. I hated that era with W and Cheney and the war. Yeah, Jeb. Jeb. At least he gave us the memes though, right?

Yeah, I'm glad he ran in 2020. Yeah, those memes will live on forever. I love the meme where he wins the entire electoral college. You ever see that one? It's like Jeb. But you know what the best one was? It was in the UK elections

when they were like, it's the UK and then someone made the map of the UK and it was like Tory and Lib Dem or whatever. It was Jeb over there. And it was Jeb

over the UK. Jeb. He wins all of the UK. So anyway, I digress. Look, what I will give the Republicans is that because of the populist takeover of many Republicans, they forced the establishment's hand, kicked out a bunch of the neocons. And I got to admit, as much as I'm not a fan of the idea of voting against a party, Democrats have crossed the line to such a degree.

We are at one of the most dangerous points in American history. You think I'm exaggerating? Check out the story we got from the TimCast.com alpha demo. That is to say this website is not live, but you can get a quick little glimpse of what this website looks like. Anyway, to the important news. Biden admin is pushing companies to censor vaccine misinformation in texts. You know what the funniest thing about this story is?

So we're getting really close to the launch of our website. We've got a bunch of amazing talent writers and journalists and investigators. We're going to be bringing on an independent fact checker to work offsite and just do fact checking on our article. It's going to be fantastic. So we're going to have an editor and then we're going to have a fact checker. And I see this story pop up from the writing crew. And I'm like, there's no way this is real.

And I legit was like, when Biden is trying to censor private text messages, there's no way the government is going to a private phone company and saying, shut down their private texts. All right. I'm like, this has got to be some hyper partisan rage bait trash. What's the real story? And I'm like, I'm going to have to email people and be like, guys, guys, guys, we've got to have a better review because there's no way this is true. The story's real.

I fact-checked this. I went through it, and I was just like, I've got to have a little bit more faith in my writers, man. Your team. They wrote this up, and it's legit. Joe Biden and the DNC are going to phone companies and telling them to, what are they saying? Sort through, sift out, and mete out misinformation.

I don't think they should even have the ability to do that personally. Oh, of course they do. Like, of course they have the ability to do it. But at what point are we just like, well, they set the Constitution on fire. I don't know, man. Those texts should be encrypted. This is crazy. Well, you got to use uh yes signal

um and there's probably other apps i guess mines has encrypted chat right mine says encrypted chat uses the uh the matrix protocol telegram yeah look at this quote biden's allied groups including the democratic national committee are also planning to engage fact checkers more aggressively and work with sms carriers to dispel misinformation about vaccines that is sent over social media and text messages the goal is to ensure that people who have difficulty getting a vaccination because of issues like transportation see those barriers lessened or removed entirely what does that mean dispel misinformation this is our land yeah yeah but like look yo we it was like 2016 when they started censoring people and we're like

man this sure is like 1984 then it was like 2017 and luke is like hey look i made a shirt where it's brave new world 1984 and uh what was the other one fahrenheit 451 all together and now i'm like it's been four years since then dude and it's only gotten worse and now biden's like come on man i'll censor your text messages and where's like the the pitchforks i don't know this is quiet it's happening quietly part of the problem i didn't see on msnbc yet maybe maybe i will pick it up this is a whole new level of beyond you know a big problem with this that is is showing its head to me is that a year ago well even like six months ago talking about the lab

leak hypothesis was considered misinformation and would have been censored so right i don't know what's going to not be considered misinformation in the future that's considered misinformation right now that would cause people to have their entire phone history it's censored or what is i don't all right i put them on tracking lists in In the report from Politico, they gave us an example. Charlie Kirk. He's the example. Yeah, Charlie Kirk, they say, needs to be censored. Why?

Because Turning Point USA had a tweet where they said that Biden is, I'm paraphrasing, is sending out goons to go door to door to make people who are not vaccinated get the vaccine. And they said, that's not true. That's not, it's not happening. We're just sending out people to go door to door to tell people to get the vaccine. And they said, that's not true. That's not, it's not happening. We're just sending out people to go door to door to tell people to get the vaccine, but they can say no. Okay. So maybe Charlie Kirk was being a little hyperbolic, exaggerating a bit, make you get the vaccine. They're not going to make you do it. So, you know, Charlie, pull it back a little bit. But I guess it was a fundraising thing. So obviously the sense of urgency and fear was

included in that. All right. But it's only off So obviously the sense of urgency and fear was included in that. All right. But it's only off by like the degree of magnitude by which Charlie expressed the idea. They literally are sending these people out. Jen Psaki did say that they were going to have vaccine volunteers go door to door. They are goons. Yeah. And they're literally now.

This is the craziest thing. There's a video. I think it's in North Carolina where they go door to door, knock on the door and then say would you like to get the vaccine and they interviewed one guy was like hey this is fantastic yes i gotta say man look if a stranger let me just ask you a question if a yeah let me ask you i'll ask you guys both if a stranger showed up at your house knocked on your door and then pulled out a syringe and said can i stick this in your arm what would you say no no i'd say no I might not say anything. You might just get suplexed. Right there.

Right on my doorstep. But think about how insane that is. That there are people where a guy shows up. They don't know who this person is. How are they supposed to know and trust it's a doctor? It's a random person they've never met before. Like, I'm here to inject you in the arm. Listen.

Holding a syringe. The craziest thing about this is there's counterindications. There's allergies. There's literally doctors who will tell you if you can or can't get the vaccine. Most people are fine to get it. But you still need to like the stranger in your doorstep doesn't know your medical history. I don't want to get too much into that necessarily because I'll talk about this. I want to talk about the censorship.

But that is happening. It is messed up. That's the kind of stuff that they want to censor. They want to, I don't know if that means dispel, you know, but there were a few people who followed up saying like, wait, wait, wait, let me get this straight. Like you're saying they want private phone companies to like block these messages. Yeah.

This is like, it feels like a lot, like a Hail Mary that is like, this could never, this could never get pulled off. They could never pull this off. This could never happen. But these kind of things have happened. Like, I've had that thought of like, this will never happen. The Patriot Act, I was like, well, they'll repeal that, obviously. That thing was ridiculous.

By 2005, that'll be repealed. Now they're using it here. Yeah. So this is kind of terrifying. You know, they can't just come out and do it right away right they they announce this right now but it's not going to be for a little while until they actually start doing it because i got to do it one step at a time very slowly like increment by increment eventually people are just not going to realize your texts just don't appear anymore and they're going to

be like oh i must i guess i can't tweet that and then you know what the left is going to say but dude it's a private company. Wow. So Ian, what is stopping this from happening? Because I'm with you on this one. I'm like, how could this possibly happen? But the more I think about it, the more I'm like, why not? What's stopping a company from being like, yeah, all right, whatever you say?

What's stopping a phone company like T-Mobile from being like, I can go through our data? I mean, they probably already use the data from phone companies to track people like who were involved in January 6th, right? Definitely, I would imagine. But I think common carrier rules, I don't know the actual restrictions and rules, but I think that they're not allowed to like curate what can and can't be said on a phone call or text. Technically, I think, at least that's the way I believe it was supposed to have been created and protected.

That's because they're like a utility, right? Yeah. They're utility. Yeah. You can't do That's because they're like a utility, right? Yeah, they're a utility. You can't take it away. But a private company. Well, so? Well, they're a utility. Isn't there an agreement between people who use the service and the company that they won't look through their messages,

they won't censor their messages? I think it's the opposite, actually. You allow that? No, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, everybody, when you turn on your iPhone or whatever, they're like, we get access to your information. Because how are they supposed to transmit the information unless they had access to it, right? There's a lot of people don't understand about these social media companies where it'll say, like, we have the – it'll say, you know, in the terms of service, we have the right to host, distribute, and, you know, perform any content you post, create, or otherwise display on our website in perpetuity, blah, blah, blah. And people are like, they're saying they're going to take all the rights to your content.

And what that really means is that you're saying you can post this on your website. People don't understand that in order for Instagram to actually show your image, they need to have the distribution rights on that image to a certain degree. And people freak out about that. Like a non-exclusive right. Yeah, otherwise you could be like, I never gave them permission to show that photo in this part of the world or whatever. I think Mines had, before we went over to the Matrix messaging system, it was all encrypted messaging. Mines didn't have any of the messages. It would only be the end-to-end user encryption is what it's called.

Is that still how it is? No, well, now it's Matrix be the end-to-end user encryption is what it's called. Is that still how it is? No. Well, now it's matrix still end-to-end user encrypted. It's a different system. But a long time ago. So I would think that Verizon could be doing that with their texts. They just have chosen not to. They've opted to gather the data. Oh, they got to let that go to the NSA, right? Maybe it's time that we force

legalization or Well, to me, this sounds a little bit like Section 230. Because why would a company not want to be able to say, this sounds a little bit like Section 230. Because why would a company not want to be able to say, oh, I have no access to that information. I can't even give it to a security organization. I can't give it to the government. Because they don't want to be held liable for that, right? Yeah, exactly.

So isn't it easier for them to just be like, nope, don't have it, never had it, never saw it, no big deal. Easier, but less profitable. That's probably it, huh? Exactly. Yeah, I can see it. Well, we're in communist America. Never had it. Never saw it. No big deal. Easier, but less profitable. That's probably it, huh? Exactly. Yeah, I could see it. Well, we're in communist America. Yeah, it's fun.

The Democratic Party outright is saying, the Democratic National Committee, that they want private text messages censored. Facebook and Twitter have already censored private messages and Instagram, but Instagram is Facebook. I remember I was talking to someone recently on Facebook and they blocked some tweet or some post and it was really really weird like some we were talking about something i think was having to do with immigration and i was like here's a story check this out and it was blocked and it was from like a regular news outlet oh yeah and it was like cannot display cannot display there was also a period where you couldn't tweet out uh i think

bit shoot yeah you might still might blocked. I'm not sure. So already, as we shift our communications onto Facebook Messenger instead of text, because most people do, a lot of people do, they can already censor what you say between your own friends. I used to think technocracy would be awesome. Now I'm starting to think this is technocracy. This is what happens when corporations, technical

corporations take over, control the government. Yeah, but why would I assume that Mark Zuckerberg or Jack Dorsey or Bill Gates know how to actually manage people? They don't. They don't. They know how to build software code. They know how to entice people with algorithms. Is he not a developer?

I don't even know if he's a coder. He's a salesman. Him and Steve Jobs are just business guys. They were really good at manipulating people and doing the deal. I think he did some early development, didn't he, Gates? I don't want to go too, I don't know. No, I don't think so. Yeah, I literally don't think so.

I don't know. Maybe this is a technocracy. Maybe not a communism. Maybe this is a technocracy. Ah, it's techno-communism, bro. Techno-communism. Yeah, yeah. It's communism enforced and controlled through the manipulation of communication technologies.

Communism for the few at the top. That's communism. That's what communism is. That's what it is. When has it ever not been that and then i love it that's not real communism it's like well every single time you've done it that's what it's turned into you know it's funny it's like you tell them two plus two equals four and they say that's not real four it's like bro every time you put these things together you get four but it's not real

four it's five well their argument is like humans are too evil and selfish in nature for capitalism to be fair. But they're perfect human beings and they can have angels and saints just controlling the redistribution of wealth. And that will never happen. Yeah. It always happens. Yeah.

Yeah. I think the biggest problem with communism is that we have the wrong kind of human. I said this many times. I'm like, if we had perfect people, this would be great. I think more than a technocracy, this is like, so this is almost like AI because, you know, humans program the AI and make it happen. Now we're just using humans to try and censor these people. We're using these fact checkers, people like Glenn Kessler, who are just fantastic.

People like PolitiFact. We know these people check facts in a very biased way. So we're like one step closer to AI, but we don't have any kind of. There was a famous fact check where Bernieers said something like half of any inner city youth are unemployed and then donald trump said you know it's it's a horrible statistic half of our inner city kids not getting jobs and then when with with bernie sanders politifact is like mostly true with trump mostly false because it's subjective it's an opinion what is mostly true or false because it's subjective. It's an opinion. What is mostly true or false about it? Yeah. It's like maybe and maybe not means the exact same thing.

Yeah. Pessimist and optimist. We hate Trump. So he's mostly wrong. We like Bernie. So he's mostly right. Half full, half empty. Isn't it really weird?

You know, Eric Weinstein tweeted this. He said, you know, I swear the country was completely a different, completely different country a few minutes ago. Like what happened? Yeah. Yeah. No joke. Like the chain between the factions just severed.

And now you have the left who are saying they're just like, when I think about the modern left, I see a bunch of people just standing there, beet red, screaming at the top of their lungs. And when I think of the right, I see a bunch of people with their eyes half closed, smug, waving American flags. That's like my vision of the left and the right right now.

So you can't have a conversation with people who are just standing there screaming at the top of their lungs. Do you guys see this viral video of the woman who's being filmed? And then she drops the floor and starts screaming and crying. I'm like, bro, that is anti-phobia. No, I don't think so. That is millennials. That is anti. It says white woman.

And there's a black woman filming her. then she's like stop filming me and she hits the woman and then just falls through he starts crying and screaming and rolling on the ground weirdly that's the weird thing is nobody around is like doing anything they're just kind of like letting this woman holding stuff twitch on the floor this is millennials dude like glad i'm gen z oh yeah well like but gen z's got their i know we're probably gonna be worse dude you've got these people who have never been disciplined and so they grow up and all they do it's like that woman who falls to her knees what did she do that when she was like seven and her parents went okay dear temper tantrum dear we'll give you

whatever you want now she's like screaming beet red in the face. That's what Antifa is. You can't film me. You can't film me. And they throw a brick at you. Hey, Rage feels good, but you gotta get, that's why I do acting and music because you get it out in a scene on camera

and it's entertaining for people or you get it out in a song and people cry. But you don't want to do it in real life. Rage doesn't feel good. Oh, I love it. It's like the best outlet. Yeah, exactly.

I don't think rage feels good. It strips you of your focus. It puts you in the animal brain. You lose control. And then it's like you get nothing done. You're failing. If you're performing when it happens, then... Well, that's a production. After the fact. But to just break

down with this woman screaming, it is you are Well, that's a production. After the fact. But, like, to just break down this woman screaming, it is, you are failing. You are a failure. These Antifa people, when they go out and they're screaming and just banging their heads and smashing things, that is them failing at life. But the problem is, you know, we can make fun of how dumb they are, but there's a lot of them going around smashing up stuff, screaming and rolling around on the ground. So, like, when Michael Malice says that these people aren't really dumb, so obviously we're going to win. I'm like, no, there's a lot of them.

There's a whole zombie horde out there. And what happened? What happens when the zombie apocalypse reaches the highest levels of government? Check out this story we got from Post Millennial. U.S. Navy in shambles as leaders prioritize wokeness over combat readiness. This is a report that was commissioned by Congress. And they found in a couple instances, one, there was on the USS Bonham Richards, I think it's called. It's a $750 million warship started on fire. Why? They said the people there weren't properly trained. But I can tell you what

they were properly trained on, diversity. They have begun to prioritize diversity trainings over combat readiness. One person testified that they handed a CD to someone said, here's your combat training. Go, go do it. But don't forget to finish your diversity training. No joke. So now you have the zombie apocalypse. We're in a zombie apocalypse. People don't realize this. Did you think the zombies were going to be like a zombie apocalypse. People don't realize this. Did you think the zombies were going to be like walking around mindlessly, just groaning and muttering nonsense? I hope you did because that's literally what's happening with these people. That's what they're doing.

And then what happens is they show up. They all start screaming. And the person goes, ah, ah, ah, and then turns into one of them. Now the Navy is. They're looking at their phones, and that's turning them into zombies soon they'll be in the neural net and then they'll just be like full-on like getting the information they'll be you'll be looking at you in the eyes but they'll be thinking about the donald trump video they're watching in their mind yeah it's the borg dude the problem you know it's funny about the borg and star trek is that it was efficient you know it was able to work as a collective and get the job done what they don't realize is that it was efficient. It was able to work as a collective and get the job done.

What they don't realize is that who knows which idea or ideology will become dominant within the collective. So we right now have this assimilate or die mentality among the woke left. They're just cultist ideologues who believe nonsense. And that's why the critical race theory thing is so weird because it keeps changing. The left wokeness, it's amorphous. There's no rules. It makes no sense. They're just insane people. They cancel each other. One day, Wemixin is the right word. The next day, it's the wrong word. Like, oh, Wemixin is inclusive. The next day, oh, it's offensive because trans women are women. You can't say Wemixen. There's no rules. Then one day they say Asian people are white adjacent. Stop defending them. The next day, stop Asian hate. They are just, it's just, it's just a zombie horde. The only thing the collective strives to

do is protect the collective at all costs. So that means it will not necessarily provide any meaningful function to the body at large other than minimize damage to itself. So when it gets into the Navy and starts destroying things and things just fall apart, that doesn't matter. The Navy failing and these ships falling apart, the U.S. surrendered to Iran because of this. That's what the report said. Did you guys know that in 2019? The U.S. surrendered and American soldiers are on their knees with their hands on their heads as Iranian Revolutionary Guard come in at guns and point them at our soldiers. Why? Because they weren't prepared for combat.

And that was under Trump. Trump didn't realize what was going on and he should have. He had people like Mark Milley who is dumb as a box of rocks, who is part of the zombie horde. The whole system is just aflame. That's it. It's just on fire right now. Man, you know what I'll say? The night is always darkest before the dawn.

But here's the way I see it. There is an insulated bubble that is the community that we have and the people we talk to and the people who watch this show and the people who share this show. And go to TimCast.com. Become members. These people are prepared more so paying attention, active and principled for the most part. There are hate watchers, I'm sure.

But if the system screws up, you know, you look at what Michael Malice says about peaceful divorce, the dissolution of the United States. If that were to happen, I'm not worried at all. I mean, I got,

I got some chickens. We got some garden food. We're gone. We we've got supplies. We've got resources. I'll figure it out. I would honestly love that. I love Michael garden food. We're gone. We've got supplies. We've got resources. I'll figure it out. I would honestly love that. I love Michael Malice.

Yeah, he's a smart fella. So if – look, if there was a collapse, the fires raged so hot within the federal government, it just falls apart. No real civil war just – yeah, I think everybody's standard of living would go down. I think I'd be all right with it. No, it'd be horrible. It'd be horrible. No, no, no, no. What I mean is, like, I don't want it to happen.

You know, I want to see America flourish and be strong and last a thousand generations because we believe in really great things, but we're being corrupted from the inside out. So what would I feel if I woke up one day and they were like, America's no more? I'd be like, all right, let's start planting food. I've got survival guides and stuff. I'll look up proper crop rotation and standard farming practices. I'll go to the community up on the mountain and say, guys, what do you propose we do? Shall we start working together and figuring out things on our own?

Look, man, I think if you look at people who live in rural areas, they know how to deal with storms. They know how to deal with trees falling down and power going out. They know how to deal with running out of toilet paper. The people in cities don't. The problem I was studying, Kings and Generals YouTube channel, highly recommend go there. Amazing documentary channel.

And I was watching a documentary on the fall of the Roman Empire last night. What happened? Oh, well, firstly, it was barbarians attacked. The empire shattered into like six different countries. Dude, it's gonna happen.

The front, the Gauls, basically, the people from the north, came down and took over all of Rome, destroyed it, and created the Italian Empire or the Italian country. And then over like 150 years, they stripped the rights of the romans away slowly

so if if we were to do a peaceful divorce here i could see like yeah you've got your farm but then all of a sudden in 30 years or 40 years they come in and take a third of your property and and you're at at their at their whip because they have the weapons they have the government and then 50 years later they take another half of your property and then all of a sudden they draft your kids into slavery and so if we lose this government we're at risk of of suffering something like that i think okay so right now our government really super freaking sucks and i would not be sad to see that go you know i don't feel like we would miss it all the red tape would be gone all the restrictions on these weapons that we were guaranteed in the constitution would be gone you'd be able to you know do it shall not be

infringed exactly but apparently it can't not a difficult it used to be when we talked about dissolving the u.s people would raise the issue of the military they're like what will happen with the military as far as i'm concerned the military is off the table now the navy can't even defend against iranian soldiers Two years ago? Are you serious? And Tom Cotton is talking about he has no confidence that the U.S. military will be able to go up against China. China freaking cares about their

military. They're taking this seriously. We're not. They can see it. Mark Milley is a horrible sign of that. And I feel like a dissolution of the Union would be preferable to this nonsense. Well, China's not worried about the diversity. So maybe they're focused. That's why they banned all the LGBT accounts on WeChat.

Oh, right. We don't want that diversity stuff in China. You guys know about John Teeter? Titer? What is it? Teeter? No, that name sounds familiar. It's probably a hoax. It was an old, early internet thing where this guy claimed to be from the future.

And there were some really interesting things about what he was saying. And a lot of people were like, It's probably a hoax. It was an old early internet thing where this guy claimed to be from the future. Oh, yeah. And there was some really interesting things about what he was saying. And a lot of people were like, wow, the things this person is saying sounds like they're a really smart person. At the very least, someone was like, this has got to be like an MIT engineer who has access to serious academic records to pull off this hoax or a team of people. Or maybe he was really a time traveler. That's more like it. Well, it doesn't really matter. It's probably a hoax because I mean, you know,

look, what's the easiest solution? Someone on the internet lied. Hey, that happens all the time. But anyway, I bring it up just because when this was going on, I think it was like the late 90s, early 2000s, John Titor was posting on forums

claiming that the U.S. was going to fall apart in the early aughts or whatever and said like Canada would take the northern Midwest areas, the East Coast would join Europe, the West Coast would join China, and the southern states would go to Mexico or whatever.

Starting to seem more and more plausible, isn't it? I gotta get off the East Coast. Yeah. To your point, I think it would be cool if we balkanized whatever like i grew up like hunting fishing shooting i know how to do all that i could survive i think wrestling perfect got this self-defense going on i think i'd be like a grizzly bear yeah you know one problem i could

one problem with the balkans is it's been basically the the butt of military ravage for like 2 000000 years. I mean, that area of the world, because it's been splintered for so long, is just constantly overrun, conquered. People are murdered, genocide. I mean, just tragedy in the Balkans. War. Because they don't have a strong unified force.

Yeah. There were periods where they did, like the Byzantine Empire, but it's kind of sad. You know? So the power of our states, yeah, the federal government is so important. Because if we didn't have coordinated military between states, we would just have been picked apart. This military? This Roman stuff, man, it's freaky. I know.

Like the parallels to the Roman Empire. So how would you, would you support a very decentralized federal government that, you know, bare bones and protects your rights and protects our nation's security? But, you know, the states are kind of separate, do what they want to do. Oh, yeah. I'd love to build an app where you could vote on local issues, like a Tinder-style app where you could be like, hey, everyone, this is Ian Crossland. I want to put a fountain on Main Street. It's going to cost $40,000. Vote for this project.

Terrible idea. You go through, and then if you like that, you can swipe right, add it to your list of things you want to put your tax dollars for locally.'s going to cost forty thousand dollars vote for this project terrible idea you go through and then if you like that you can swipe right add it to your list of things you want to put your tax dollars for yeah that wouldn't be terrible a terrible idea i don't think so you absolutely want to decentralize and localize governance basically during occupy wall street i don't know about i don't know about the app portion during occupy wall street when someone goes i think we should we should get bins for the sanitation crew then someone someone was like, that's a good idea. I'm going to propose that our bins are fair trade. And then someone was like, yeah, but they've got to be

recycled too. And they went, okay. So we all agree, fair trade, recycled bins. Go find them. It was ridiculous. The stupidest thing, you couldn't find those. They didn't. They went to Walmart. They were like, everyone agreed, and then they went to the store and said, we can't find it, just buy the ones from Walmart.

If they were like, vote for this fountain, and everyone was like, yeah, and they put all this money towards it, and they didn't know how to build the fountain, that's a problem. So you'd have to be able to follow through with your plan, have an entire plan ready to go. I'll tell you exactly what would happen. I've learned the wonders of septic leach fields only in the past year,

because I never had a septic system before. But I can tell you exactly what'll happen when a bunch of people who know nothing about anything show up and they go, hey, look, a big empty field. I propose we build a building on it. I vote. Everyone goes, yay, we vote. And then the one that comes out, guys, guys, guys, that's the leach field for the thousand gallon septic tank.

You can't build on it. And they go, we voted. We passed the resolution out of our way. And then they build on a septic leach field and then they die. That's why you have governors. out of our way. And then they build on a septic leach field and then they die. Oh, no, I don't mind. That's why you have governors. You have governors and mayors to like stop stupid behavior, you know. But so you mean elected representatives? Yeah, you still have them.

But but rather than like rely on an external person to come build that building for you, you could like locally. Here's what would happen to people would vote for the building. Then someone would say, look, that's a leach field. We have a regulation barring the building of that. And go i propose we get rid of that regulation ah and they also they'll vote to get rid of it because people want to make money and it's a it's it's it's it bro it's not easy to govern so democracy does not work if a bunch of people voted for the the building on the leach field and it was all these people voted for it so it was ready to go and then all of a sudden they found out it can't happen it would be removed from your list by who by by the

governor basically yeah by the governance so the so the governor whoever yeah that means at any point or the governor at any point the mayor could be like i do not want this civil rights bill deleted i'm the smart one well if it violated some sort of standard yeah what standard by who who sets the standard the leach field who sets the standard? The leach field. Who sets the standard? Well, the people do, through the governance. Great. So when the mayor says, you can't vote on the leach field, like I said, they'll go,

we vote to say you can. So the mayor is pointless at that point. I'm not saying direct democracy overrule things. I'm just saying a way for us to pool funds locally. Yeah. Do you ever look at a a map of a topographical map of manhattan you can actually see in the skyscrapers where the bedrock is it's fascinating well what do you mean they can only build the skyscrapers on bedrock wow they can't build it on the dirt it sinks

that's why there's a lot of cities where you're like i wonder why they don't build skyscrapers here bro it's a swamp like dc is a swamp yeah you know what i mean like literally a swamp so it's hard to build massive buildings because they sink manhattan is a swamp yeah you know what i mean like literally a swamp so it's hard to build massive buildings because they sink manhattan is a big rock so that they can build and they can carve holes and do subways actually you know fairly easy but there's like a line because there are some areas that are you know dirt and mud and stuff regular people don't know these things so they're like i propose we build a building sideways and then you're like that you can't we shouldn't do that i'm gonna do it anyway and then everyone's like yay sideways building and then construction crew goes hey we're

getting paid gonna go build the sideways building and then they start building it and then they just no no you definitely need checks and balances but i i can't stand that like people in upper echelons of government are deciding what gets built where and i don't have like an opportunity to input yeah like a convenient way to input what if and and just bear with me here what if i pulled up on my app and i wrote let's bomb cuba oh my gosh and then swiped right and your hypothetical government that's not a local thing and everyone said yes we vote to bomb cuba like this story from newsweek yes you enjoy my segue there yeah i loved it. Bombing Cuba, an option that needs to be discussed, says Miami mayor.

No. Get that guy out of there. We don't want to bomb Cuba. They just said discuss. Give a chance. Hear him out. I don't think we should discuss bombing Cuba. See?

You're right. Like airstrikes. Airstrikes on Cuba. Who is this crazy person? All right. Look, look, look. People are protesting in Cuba, and they're yelling. I think they're yelling what? Libertad? Libertad. Libertad. like airstrikes airstrikes on cuba who's this crazy person that's all right look look people are protesting in cuba and they're yelling i think they're yelling what libertad libertad

liberty freedom and down with dictatorship and things like that and then you know the mainstream media is like people are upset about covert in cuba anti-government slogans the pro the pro-communist people and uh cube the cuban authorities have been i guess locking people up they blocked the internet we got this from voa cuban authorities have been i guess locking people up they blocked the internet we got this from voa cuban authorities block access to the internet response to protests my favorite aspect of the story is when brian seltzer of cnn tweeted out this quote where he's like restricting access to the internet is a move of dictators and i'm like what does that say about joe biden and jack dorsey and facebook and you because he's the one who's gone on and said don't

listen to fox news and you know been a defender of banning and regulating speech on these platforms. So what does it say about all these people? But yeah, anyway, look people of Cuba. They're fighting back. I don't think we should go bombing them though. But bomb who why what is what is this the communists bro? Who are the who are those? What does that mean?

The president of Cuba the Communist Party of Cuba. What do you mean? So like this guy wants to bomb the sitting government of Cuba? Are they all localized in one communist building? Or how do you go about that? Seems tricky. Yeah, the U.S. is like, we're going to surrender and convene a meeting of all the great communist party leaders in this one building right here. Yeah, this time.

And they're like, okay. And then, meow. Look at this. This is funny. In an interview with Fox News, this is Francis Suarez noted a brief history of U.S. involvement in overturning foreign leaders. His history mentioned the U.S. airstrikes in Kosovo during the 1999 humanitarian crisis. Are you suggesting airstrikes in Cuba? Fox News anchor Martha McCallum asked, what I'm suggesting is that option is one that has to be explored.

And can it be just simply discarded as an option that is not on the table? Suarez answered. And there's a variety of ways the military can do it. Wow. Please expand on those ways. I'm curious. I got to say, I'm curious because like a lot of people in Miami are Cuban and are protesting in support of the Cubans. But I think an airstrike on Cuba would kill civilians.

You get those little drones that are explosive and you fly them through windows. That's crazy they have those, dude. That's the next thing. I warned about that back in the day because I was working on this university drone program. I actually went and chose the first drone test site for the for the for the government program on like how to do the research and i was like before it started i was talking to a bunch of like government people in academics because i had done this drone research and they were like we need to get a better understanding of what drones mean and i was like the drone that we've seen can carry like a

kilogram what happens if that drone carries an explosive? How will you stop it? And they were just like stone-faced like, it's here now. The technology exists. And they were just like, maybe we should regulate these things. Dude, they're going to make,

have you heard of smart dust? They're going to make drones that are so small. Smart dust is like, yeah, Ben Stewart was talking about it. It's in the roads in Denver. Apparently it's like, they're mini sensors, talking about it. It's in the roads in Denver. What? Apparently, it's like they're mini sensors, like dust sensors that are as small as dust. But they're going to make drones that size.

They can, like, fly into your inner ear, into your brain. I don't know about all that stuff. Yeah, it's too crazy for reality, I know. They do have very small drones that can fly like insects. There was a Kickstarter once. Yeah, Black Mirror. There was a Kickstarter for them once. They're really, really cool. They're remote control. They just flap really weakly and There was a Kickstarter once. Yeah, Black Mirror. There was a Kickstarter forum once. They're really, really cool. They're remote control.

They just flap really weakly and fly for a little bit. What was that crazy drone movie? It was like 10 minutes long. Murder Drones or something it was called. Do you guys know what I'm talking about? Oh, you gotta see it. It's a YouTube video.

It's on YouTube. Murder Drones. Yeah, and it's this dystopian, this guy's building drones, like Amazon or whatever. He's like, we're gonna transport all your, we have drones everywhere to transport. And then the drones go haywire, and they start patrolling the city all day, every day, drones flying about, murdering, shooting at anyone.

So people are basically running from building to building. It's like a Black Mirror episode. And trying to live – yeah. Literally. The bees, right? No, not the bees. The dog ones. It's similar, man.

Yeah, the dogs were running around hunting people down, the robot dogs. I don't remember that one. Oh, me neither. They had an episode where there were these bee drones that would burrow into your brain. Yeah's similar, man. Yeah, the dogs were running around hunting people down, the robot dogs. I don't remember that one. Oh, me neither. They had an episode where there were these bee drones that would burrow into your brain. Yeah, because bees died. Yeah. Yep, bees died, so they replaced pollen bees with robo-bees. And the robo-bees went nuts. I don't know what that has to do with bombing Cuba, though.

It's the 21st century bombs. It's like tiny little drone bombs. Yeah, dude. I wonder if they have, like, antimatter bombs yet. Yeah, I was reading about anti-matter bombs because like when anti-matter comes into contact with matter, it has a 100% energy release. So it's extremely expensive to produce and contain anti-matter because if it comes into contact with matter, boom. How do you contain that? They put it in a magnetic ring.

Oh, okay. Yeah, so it's it's contained spinning around really fast gotcha and so to make a device that could utilize that that'd be crazy too low iq for this conversation really really powerful explosives yeah put it mildly boom boom yeah yeah really expensive to produce at this point like i'm talking trillions of dollars like a proton and a negatron i think i think i think negatrons aren't real yet, but we got a coin, negatron. And electrons and positrons. Positron's real, but the proton and the negatron.

What is a negative proton called? I don't know. Let's find out. It should be a negatron, right? Anti-proton. Oh, okay. Yeah, negatron's better. That's cooler.

Yeah, I agree. Negatron. Very cool. It's like a robot. Yeah, but a proton, is that a positron? The positron's an anti-electron is a positive oh right right right right okay proton i don't know megatron dude so this is not very political anymore no this is a great conversation though i want to talk about we might go into this more

since you're a wrestler and we talked about like uh trans women and wrestling we might go into this yeah we'll talk about that it's funny because like we end up talking about a lot of that stuff in the Members Only podcast because that's stuff YouTube bans you for. Yeah, we'll go deep. YouTube outright just like... The segment we did yesterday with Colonel West, I was mad. This is

dark, dark stuff that's happening. People were commenting that too. This is a dark episode. I know. It was horrifying what they're doing to people. I need to go back and watch that. But we will talk about that. I suppose for now we're mostly focused on like

whether or not we blow up Cuba. Yeah, so... And... We're just discussing it. Yeah, yeah. There's a lot of people right now. I imagine people like John Bolton are sitting there like,

bomb, bomb Cuba. Bomb, bomb, bomb. Bomb, bomb. By stocks? He's checking in with Robin Hood. Raytheon just... Yeah. No, I don't know. Raytheon got woke. Did you guys see that? Yeah. Yeah, raytheon got woke did you guys see that no yeah yeah raytheon got woke i knew they did like a pride month thing oh no they had like a white privilege training thing even better

i'm kind of i'm kind of okay with that like i i think about these companies or like the navy getting woke and i'm like no no no no this no, no, no, this is bad. This is bad. Get woke, go broke. And then the Federal Reserve gets woke and I'm like, maybe I'm okay with this. And then Raytheon, I'm like, oh, do I support this now? It's gutting these institutions from the inside out and they're being disintegrated.

No, because it's fire. You know what I mean? And you might have like schadenfreude when you're watching fire engulf like some enemy or something. But that fire spreads. It's so fun to be an accelerationist sometimes and just watch it burn. From afar. Sometimes.

But you don't even need to be an accelerationist anymore. I mean the stuff, the Navy. Look at those videos of the U.S. soldiers surrendering to Iran. And if that doesn't make your blood boil. What was that whole process? I didn't see that. There were a couple of boats. They got surrounded.

The U.S. surrendered. They were in Iranian waters or something? I don't remember the exact details. I think I might have heard about that. The U.S. surrendered a couple small ships, and U.S. soldiers are on their knees with their hands on their heads. Wow.

Swarm to the soldiers. Oh, they got released. Yeah, they got released by the iranian revolutionary guard but uh it's amazing when we prioritize wokeness our own navy our army so what you're saying is that we could technically bomb cuba but we're not going to be able to because we're super woke now and the military is completely ineffective oh wow could you that's the only reason we don't bomb cuba we have a lot of other issues. I'm just imagining that plane with the rainbow flag on it and Black Lives Matter in the front

dropping rainbow bombs. And the little Middle Eastern children are like, yeah. Diversity. Well, they're Cubans now. Oh, right. Well, it's still brown. You could probably put little prism shards in the explosives so that when it blows up, it's not red.

It just looks like a rainbow. Glitter. Oh, yeah. We've added 1 just looks like a rainbow. Glitter. Yeah. We've added 1,000 pounds of glitter to our ordinance. I think this guy, this Floridian guy is espousing rhetoric, political rhetoric of nothing's off the table. You know, they say this stupid stuff like nukes are not off the table in regards to Cuba. My neighbor is keeping me up at 2 a.m. with his rooster. Nukes are not off the table. Technically correct cuba my neighbor is is keeping me up at 2 a.m with his rooster

nukes are not off the table technically correct because they're not that's the point of the military is you don't want to take that stuff up but then why wouldn't you just come out and be like no nukes are off the table but secretly they're not off the table like that's better nukes are never off the table bombs are never off the table yeah but i don't i don't see what's to gain by actually intervening with cuba i don't like communism, but I just think the U.S. is – I mean it's probably good for the military industrial complex because they'll be like, oh, we can screw up the United States and then create another massive crisis where we'll get funding from the government forever. Let's do it. Seize Cuba and then install a central bank there. No, they'd probably just blow up half of it and then try nation building.

For 20 years. Yeah. Yeah. bank there no they probably just blow up half of it and then try nation building for 20 years yeah yeah although cuba is really cuba is really close to the u.s so make it a state it's not gonna be the same as oh man could you imagine we gotta go to tanamo bay already yeah cuba the 51st state porto rico doesn't cut we have an american military base in cuba yeah they hate us they're like get out of here that's so weird there's a's a McDonald's there. The Spanish, what was it? The Spanish-American War, 1898, I think it was, was when the Spanish Empire was controlling Cuba. And America was like, we're going to liberate Cuba. So they did.

And then Cuba was free. And then Castro came in and took control. So if we were going to liberate it again, what do we do after that? Wasn't it like him and Che? And Castro was like, hey, Che, check this out. I'm going to enslave all these people. And Che was like, ah, you won't do it, man. He's like, you want to bet? He's like, yeah, I'll do it.

And then he did it. He was smoking a cigar. Yeah, probably. And then Shay was like, you know how you – and then Shay was like, yo, guess who I don't like? And then Fidel Castro laughed and he was like, Shay, you don't like brown people. And then Shay was like, that's right. And Shay was like, your brother sucks.

Wasn't he super racist? Yeah. Super homophobic, too. I've heard that. I've heard that a lot. Is communists tend to be – like, oh, your brother sucks. Wasn't he super racist? Yeah. Super homophobic, too. I've heard that. I've heard that a lot. Is communists tend to be? Like, wasn't Marx? I think Che Guevara was, too.

He was racist. That's what I mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I don't know about Marx. I'm pretty sure Marx was super racist. Yeah. Yeah, that's why they didn't like it.

It's a comic theme. Yeah. Yeah. Even the critical race theorists are racist. So there's like a thing about these leftists that they just like being racist i think they're projecting like especially the white liberals who are like all white people are racist you have to atone for your racism you have to admit to your racism and then everyone's looking like they're a weirder like what are you talking about i'm not a racist and they're like yes you are because i am and i feel bad about it and i have to apologize

for like no you, go to therapy. Don't project on everybody else. Not all white people are racist. I do love that they're like, yes, you are because I am. It's like, okay, thank you for admitting that. But I'm going to leave now. These are my racist glasses. I see racism everywhere.

If you're racist, that lens is going to make you see it when you look outside. So at a certain point, are we going to be like Tony Shalhoub in Galaxy Quest, just laughing at the absurdity about how we're about to blow up or something? You guys seen that movie? No, not me, man. Have you seen Galaxy Quest? Part of it. What? I thought it was going to be awesome.

I was like, oh, it's going to be the greatest genre, sci-fi, one of the greatest genres. It's got Sigourney Weaver, Tim Allen. It's got Tony Shalhoub. Tony Shalhoub. And then what's the guy who played Snape? Oh, it's Alan Rickman. Sam Rockwell. Rockwell's. Yeah, it's a great cast.

And the movie's fantastic. But anyway, they end up in this spaceship, and they're just actors. And so they're, like, freaking out. But Tony Shalhoub's character is like, all right, man, I guess. Like, whatever. Laugh or cry? Like, they're about to get blown up, and he's just laughing. Like, yeah, laugh or cry, man. like freaking out but tony schlup's character is like all right man i guess like whatever laugh or cry like they're about to get blown up and he's just laughing like yeah laugh or cry man like at a certain point i just kick my feet back and be like bro i got jiggins we got space we got tomatoes bro we harvested the carrots we got like 10 pounds of carrots dude i can't even eat all

these what am i supposed to do with carrots i don't even know i grew that many it's gonna be good carrots stew it goes good yeah we'll make juice cake we got jalapenos i was having last night i don't know how you guys feel i was having kind of a nihilistic night last night do you guys go through this where kind of like you're saying just laugh at all the chaos like well let's just get what i can out of this before it's all over that's what our leaders have been doing for the past 20 years for probably thousands well you're right not a long time america was functioning we were we rallied against the nazis in world war ii we had drive during all the horrible interventions we did right with vietnam and korea there was still this american

elite being like we're gonna go to war because we're better than you now it's just like oh the system's broke i'm gonna steal as much silverware as possible before the house burns down. Yeah, we talked about this before. It's like the Titanic's going down, and they're running room to room grabbing stuff before they jump on the life raft before everybody else. I know we can fix the system. We could build a software, like a decentralized system that's powered by vacuum energy or fusion energy localized where people can communicate uncensored. But I don't know if the human um consciousness is is able to do it like i don't know if the if humans are just too too busted as an animal that we can't function you know sociologically at scale i wonder about that

i know we can build the technology gotta get that neural link bro gotta integrate resistance is futile that That's right. What's that gonna do, though? Make me hear your crazy thoughts? Then everyone will just be in the Borg, man. No, because everybody

will just be the Borg. Will it make the craziest person make everyone else crazy or will it make the calmest person make everyone else calm? Everyone will get crazy. That's what I was

explaining, right? In Star Trek, the Borg was working in unison towards a goal of assimilating more technology and expanding and whatever. But the reality is, if you assimilate, if you've got ten people and six of them are psychotic leftists and you assimilate everybody, the collective just becomes psychotically left.

It won't function properly. It will just spaz out and accuse everyone of racism and then collapse on itself. If you had like nine crazy racists and then a tenth like really calm buddha master joined would it make the other nine very calm or would it turn the buddha master racist the buddha master wouldn't necessarily become racist but if they all function in line with the collective they would all move towards the crazy racism so the buddha master would be like oh i'm having crazy thoughts but he keeps dispensing his thoughts having no thought and then eventually the crazy people start to have less and less thoughts that's how the board the Borg works. How do you know?

Because I watch Star Trek. You've never been in the Borg, Tim. Look at Picard when he became the Borg. They talk all about it. Seven of Nine talks about it. They lose their control. Their voice becomes one with the collective and they all function towards the collective goal. Of course, there was the Borg Queen who secretly

was manipulating the collective. That's communism. That's exactly what you can expect to happen. So if there was no queen, I wonder if you would, as a strong mind, be able to warp the collective, to bend to your will, so to speak, for the good of humanity, whatever that means. Well, I think there's something like that in Marvel with Dr. Doom. That guy's got an iron will. He's like a villain, but he's my favorite. He's almost like a hero. Anti like dr doom i like guys got like an iron will he's like a villain but he's my favorite he's almost like a hero almost like a hero yeah what was it he used to be part of the fan he was with them on the ship the fantastic four when they went to space and then he got what power did he what power yeah he got like uh i don't know like lightning

power or something and like he wants to not destroy humanity what is his goal save humanity so he wants to save humanity he's What is his goal? Save humanity. So he wants to save humanity. Yeah, he's a communist dictator, basically. He's an authoritarian dictator who thinks that humanity will only survive if he is the one who is in charge. Yeah. And there's like this famous comic where he's like confronted by this great panther spirit or whatever. And then he's like, I have seen a thousand futures or whatever. And in each and every one, humanity is destroyed.

The only future I've seen where humanity survives is when I'm in charge. And then like the spirit finds that he's like pure of heart. Like he actually, actually means it. I like him. Let's read some super chats. If you haven't already smashed that like button, please. And subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, hit that notification bell, which apparently doesn't do anything anyway, because it helps, I guess. Sure. And go to TimCast.com, become a member. We're going to have a bonus members-only podcast coming up just after the show, around 11 or so p.m. So make sure you check that out. And let's read some of these super chats. All right, let's see. All right, what is this? Gemcast DCL says, is Tim, 18 U.S. Code 241, conspiracypiracy Against Rights. I think this is a good attack vector

for the free speech or any other rights argument. You should look into it. I will look into it. Mediocre Fisherman says, if you can pick two political figures to run in 2024, who would it be? Well, I don't know

who Dave Smith's VP is going to be, but I am really, really looking forward to a Michael Malice press secretary for the Libertarian Party. That is going to be the greatest thing ever. I mean, it would just be like, wow. That would be supreme.

I would vote for that so fast. I would love to just go back to like 14-year-old Tim and like sit down and be like, listen, in 2024, this guy named Michael Malice will be the press secretary for a Libertarian candidate. And it's going to be glorious. And then just like show like a clip of michael malice and the things he says and then get my younger self all excited for just the shenanigans the epic trolling of the establishment machine i had one single interaction with michael malice and it was so hilarious it was so strange i was at a c-pack after party last year like literally the last night before COVID,

like shut everything down. And he shows up fashionably late. And I knew who he was, but like he definitely looked familiar to me. And someone was like, oh, that's Michael Malice. I was like, oh, I definitely follow that guy on Twitter. And he comes up to me and he's like, I love your hair. Is that racist to say?

I don't care. I don't care. I love your hair. And I have this long twist. And I was like, no, it's not racist. Thank you. And that was it. That sounds like him. It does sound like him. I love your hair. And it had this long twist, and I was like, no, it's not racist. Thank you. And that was it. That sounds like him. It does sound like him. I love it.

All right, we got Colonel Jack O'Neill here, who's taking his break from his Stargate missions. And he says, Ian, I love you, but sometimes you say something so insane, I want to slap you until your eyeballs switch places. You'd probably feel better if you were here. I'll try and air out weird ideas and thoughts, and sometimes they come out incomplete.

Maybe it's a little frustrating to listen to. I can try and read that as Richard Dean Anderson. Ian, I love you, but sometimes you say something so insane, I want to slap you until your eyeballs switch places. Music in the background is surging right now as he's saying it. They do like three episodes of SG-1

every day now. It was two episodes at first, now it's three, and I'm like, I can as he's saying it. Dude, they do like three episodes of SG-1 every day now. It was two episodes at first. Now it's three, and I'm like, I can't keep up with this. I'm jumping episodes. I got to keep track of what's going on. It's a good show, by the way. I love SG-1. It's fantastic.

All right. Silver Kestrel says, not surprised with the Navy getting woke. This happened during the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s. Their Navy overwhelmingly broke for the leftist Republican forces wow could you imagine that if the navy becomes overwhelmingly woke and then they just like basically defect that's gonna happen to some degree will it happen with that i don't know something has happened in the past but what's happening now is unique you know it's not the same there's similarities but we don't know what's going to happen. All right. Lamb says, I want to shout out James Lindsay's new Discourses channel podcast.

The near four hour episode on Hegel, wokeness and the dialectical faith of leftism is brilliant and very eye opening. Absolutely. James Lindsay is a smart fella. All right. Let's see tanner hein says have you seen gavin newsom's campaign ads claiming the same republicans who refuse to accept the election results are back again to smear him and waste taxpayer money on recalling him ah projection yeah it's funny because it's not just republicans that want to recall newsom it's a lot of people who are democrats a lot

of democrats are fleeing the state because of that guy yeah well all right let's see james could says texan here some democrats just simply don't care and run to daddy biden when it's rough you were elected do your job servant leadership needed yeah the people and the democrats in texas are supposed to be like oh i'm here to vote for my people and if we don't win because we're in the minority position, like at a certain point, you recognize what democracy, a democratic republic is supposed to be or constitutional republic with democratic institutions, to put it more specifically. OK. Keith McCracken says, Ian, stop with your powerful thought energy. You're disturbing the camera. Keith.

Now, I got to this, right? So, Ian's camera froze from a random frame from last night, which is weird, because the show ends, like... That's the second time it's happened. Yeah. Oh, really? Yeah, usually we just restart Ops. What is going on? Yeah, usually we

catch it. Yeah. But it's weird that it's an image of you from last night's show, but the show went on like normal and then ends. Then, like, it just randomly pulls up this image and freezes it there. It's like, how is it that picture? Do you think people are capable of interacting with electricity? Yeah, you're too powerful. I think that's it. Have you ever had that where you shut a light just like...

Well, it's never happened to me, but clearly you were gifted. It's not intentional. I think it's the psychedelics. Do you think we'll get a copyright strike if I play music on my phone? It depends on the song, I guess. Yeah, because I was going to play the song. Because somebody, well, I just got an iPhone, and it's got this thing. But somebody was like, Jimmy Quinto says,

will we get more songs like Will of the People? Yes, because I got this epic new app. Can you hear that? There it goes, yeah. Yeah. Beautiful. Yeah, it's good. He's been playing with it.

If you sing it. Oh, actually, I think that song's Public Domain, House of the Rising Sun. Yeah, it is. Let me look. Yeah, I think that's Public Domain. It's like a really old folk song. I like that song. It's a good song.

Yeah, but we're going to get more songs. We're trying to hire a composer. We need somebody whose job it will be to just sit around all day making beats and tracks and music, kind of like ambient hip-hop, rock, indie style, just a mix. Because we need to use the music for our shows, for the podcasts, and then we can take some of those songs and turn them into full songs. So we literally need someone who just sits around making music all day and we could hire them and have them just sit in a room and make music all day. I've been watching a lot of Beatles lately.

And, man, something that music desperately needs right now is that ooh-wah-wah-wah, ooh-wah-wah-ooh-yah-yah-la-la-la-la. No, Ian, it doesn't need that. It does. music desperately needs right now is that ooh wah wah wah ooh wah wah ooh ya ya la la la la like no no it doesn't need that it does we've had we've had ball with the ball and we've had and we've had zig a zig but what we need is like a solid uh melody through line story like what you're singing with will the people but with that like la la yeah in the background. Like we need more of that doo-wop in rock. Why? Why do we need that? I'm telling you.

It's what made the Beatles great. All right. It's not specific. All right. Let's see. Eli says, Ed Calderon worked in the fields of counter-narcotics, organized crime investigation and public safety in the northern border region of Mexico. A U.S. citizen now and can definitely confirm what Alan West said.

Please get him on if you can. Love the show. Oh, Ed's manifesto. alan west said please get him on if you can love the show oh ed's manifesto he's great follow him on instagram yeah rick resler says donation for tim's wardrobe sunglasses 100 thumbs up and crying laughing face what's wrong with my wardrobe i have a hat a shirt a shirt and pants yeah i don't know you can't even tell what kind of pants i'm wearing one of these one night tim's gonna wear the craziest outfit well i do have the the the black a shirt and pants.

Purple, velvet. Yeah. Yeah. Prince style. Like a Friday night or something. All right. Let's see.

Some people are asking if i'm familiar with robert barnes and viva phrase show i am familiar with their show absolutely all right connor o'brien says uh let's see okay maybe i can't read that one sorry connor i don't i don't know what it's about but youtube's very censorious so i'll have to walk away from that one um eric a says have you been following china's actions in south america they built the space base in argentina china increasing ties there is worrying argentina is part of the lithium triangle where over 50 of mineable lithium is yes china was trying to build something called the nicaraguan canal you know about this story no panama canal very powerful because we have a

shipping lane that goes through the americas so China was like, we'll just build one through Nicaragua. How much will that cost? Can we do it? Yes. It would have destroyed this massive freshwater aquifer. And it was going to just cause a lot of people to have no water. And the project got scrapped. But it was going to cut through Nicaragua, which is like substantially longer than Panama.

I was about to ask. Isn't it bigger? Yep. For sure, right? As an FU to the Panama Canal. Yep. China is like, they're not backing down, man. I mean, what they're doing is crazy.

All right. John Marafa says, two things. One, Texas Dems have done this before, fleeing to Oklahoma some years ago. Two, when these guys fly back from D.C., I hope their plane drops out of the sky. No, no, we don't want that. We want their plane to land safely because you want to see a perp walk. This is the important thing about justice. You need to have them in a court of law, pay the penalty so that everybody knows and sees it's legitimate and they've paid their like they're being held accountable through a legitimate process. That's why with the Nuremberg trials, we said we're going to put these people down. We're going to show everybody the evidence, and we're going to prove it in a court.

You got to make sure that happens to these people. They got to get arrested. They land. They broke the law. They get arrested. There you go. All right. J-Mac says, some elites are fighting back.

There was some businessman who helped fund South Dakota's National Guard being sent to help with border security. Hell, I give super chats to those I feel with a good platform. People are fighting money with money. Anyways, keep up the good work, Cassitine. Thank you very much. Yeah, we need people to donate to, you know, Republicans in cities. I mean, imagine this. You get someone like AOC who's got a powerful media platform, which she didn't when she started. When she ran for the first time, there was no actual Republican candidate. I mean, there literally was, but not really. Apparently, the dude didn't even have a website.

How are you supposed to? They're like, oh, we can't win there because it's too Democrat. Republicans give up. You didn't even try, dude. Did not even try. Democrats certainly try to get young people in red areas. Certainly. Republicans just give up though yeah that's the reality oliver moreland says we just protested our school board in rochester mn for these far left teachings we had some good speakers and i got footage that i'll edit tonight we all need to rise together against this insanity that's Yeah, who is the Eye of Sauron then?

I don't know. If the rabble, the people, the orcs. Dave Rubin? No, I don't think so. It would be like a populist. It would be Donald Trump, right? Trump. Yeah, actually.

The eye of Trump. All right. Let's see. TRD has a great super chat, and I can't read it because, well, because I can't read it. YouTube says you can't say these things. So I can appreciate that you sent the super chat in, but I can't read what it says. But he does say Salty Army is legion, and the salt must flow. That part I can't read. The rest I can't say these things so i can appreciate that you send the super chat in but i can't read what it says but he does say salty army is legion and the salt must flow that part i can't read the rest i can't smokes says michael malice anarchist handbook handbook inspired me to break the first rule of super chat in making a guest suggestion please consider inviting my friend pedro delfino

That would be very great. We invite a ton of people to come out here. We had this one dude do a backflip on a scooter

I have never Healy's healy's cool closest. You don't know what healy's are They were like such a craze like the early 2000s It's literally like a sneaker with like a big fat wheel in the back of the shoe and you just skate around your heels

Okay. Beautiful. J-Mac says, some guy is complaining about me giving you guys super chats, even though I explained why I do.

Poor guy doesn't know I also give you guys money directly. Oh, well, keep up the good work. Please, please, people, keep telling our friends and fans not to donate to us so they donate more. Yes. It's the greatest advertising campaign. Hey, you should give them money. Well, I'll give them more money.

Oh, no. All right. Let's see what we campaign. Hey, you should give them money. Well, I'll give them more money. Oh, no. All right. Let's see what we got. Josh Martinez said, this may be my last super chat. They are going door to door and confiscating our Legos. We have formed a militia and we will resist. Well, you know why they have to confiscate the Legos? See, back in the day, I mentioned the ninjas, remember?

The ninjas would be like they would assassinate a feudal lord. And as they're running, they would have these Japanese caltrops. But they would serrate the metal so they could dip poison in it. And the grooves would hold poison. And so when you stepped on it, not only did you get spiked by the caltrop, but you got poisoned. Well, today's day and age, we have more advanced weaponry and technology so now when the ninjas are running they need only throw legos on the ground and then everyone's stepping on the legos ah poison legos not even poison just legos just stepping on the legos you

fall over ah even through the shoe it's like one guy's got like a giant lego just threw his foot and he's like help me and they're like i can! And that's why they're like, we better confiscate these Legos. Yeah, that would make more sense than the real reason. The ultimate Caltrop. That would be a funny sketch as well. They're just Legos, but they're in the foot and there's Legos sticking out all over like they went through his flesh.

He's like, ugh! Lego Caltrops, man. Alright, let's see where we're at. Dano says, news imperial forces found a lego death star set on tatooine in the former home of luke skywalker emperor palpatine outraged truited on a shot but a pressure dark side there you go beautiful all right phoenix ammunition says olivia better remember to bring her singlet to the solutionary summit we've got business to handle what is that yeah oh you guys are you guys familiar with maj

torre black oh yeah of course yeah he throws this annual solutionary summit i was a speaker last year this year it's in miami i told a bunch of people i twitter beef with that i will wrestle them if they see me irl at the solutionaryary Summit. Nice. Wrestling. Yeah. A good fair match with a nice referee to prove, you know, who's right. That's how I settle Twitter beef. Yeah, that's a good way to settle. Yeah, that's the right way to do it. Gentlemanly mutual sporting combat.

All right, let's see what we got here. Pin Global News says, Hey, Tim and crew, listen to you guys every day at work. I recently started a news commentary channel intertwined with some gaming.

Hope it makes news a little more easy and fun to watch. Pin Global. Right on, man. Uh-oh. Brett Russell says, Second night in a row,

Tim mentions ninjas. Check out Stephen Hayes versus SWAT team. They were sneaky and patient. Farmers and shop owners, not Hollywood. Cool stuff. All right. Keeping America afloat says, if government is supposed to protect our rights and the

big tech companies violate them, wouldn't the government contracting the big tech be treason? Not treason. Obviously, you'd like to be like hey that's wrong you can't do that but it's actually just more like they're outsourcing violations of the constitution because the government i don't think the government is supposed to protect our i mean well maybe they're supposed to protect our rights but in a perfect world yeah right exactly yeah government doesn't do that all that much so i don't know what else to say

stonehenge says will we get a get Alex Jones part two in the future? Technically, we already did. Part three, yeah. Yeah, the first Alex Jones thing we did got pulled down. So we immediately – so that's the story, right? YouTube took down our Alex Jones, Michael Malice episode. And then people were like, oh, Tim, they're censoring you. And people were like, Tim's so lame.

He's totally letting YouTube walk all over him. The first thing I did after the I got taken down was I texted Michael and Alex I was like guys can you come back on because we got to do it again we're gonna do it again and I posted the goofy meme I'll do it again but they couldn't come right away so like we did it a week later we should have Alex back when we have the new studio that have like a

group of people that'd be really fun yeah we I want to get Alex if he's willing to come on with someone and like I was thinking it'd be really interesting to have people who are in politics and culture but not in the same areas have conversations. So like we had Michael and Alex, and they're in a similar space. It's culture war. It's politics. It'd be interesting to have someone whose focus is on like economics.

Peter Schiff? Maybe. I don't know if he'd want to sit down with Alex Jones I would love to see Cenk Uygur and Alex together no way oh I could not that would result in a fight yeah that's not gonna happen if it didn't that would be the glimmer of humanity I was there that I need I was there uh when they were fighting I think that's the DNC when Alex showed up and then he went to the set of the Young Turks because it was like the Young Turks were doing a show but it was an open area in the press area you could just like walk past them and then Alex shut up and he's

filming and he's laughing. And then I think Jimmy Dore was Jimmy spat on Alex. That's when he spat. Yeah. Yeah. I was there. I was crazy. So rude. Oh, you were. Yeah. I was there. We were chilling. Jeez. Yeah. Yep. Yep. Yep. I don't know if we we do have

should we mention the plan for August? If you want, yeah. It's all confirmed and locked in, though? No, it's not. So, no, I don't mention it. It's not? No, it's not. I'm waiting for them.

For who? Okay, so we have some guests that are going to come in August, I hope, but I need to hear back from them, like, details of, like, for booking flights and stuff. But they both agreed. They did, yeah, that's true. It's going to be, like, we're going to do posters for it. Yeah. And it's going to be probably stupid to gonna do posters for it yeah and it's gonna be

probably stupid to overhype but you know it'll be a right and a left and we're gonna come in and it's gonna be like a gentlemanly debate indeed yes mma posters all right so we won't say anything just yet but not yet yeah but we'll uh we'll announce it once we have everything you know locked in that's right i believe we have a confirmation a yes but we need to have like flights and hotels and everything yeah i want receipts yeah exactly all right let's see ret bletcha says hi guys i'm a 25 year old farmer in nebraska i raise my own livestock and food kamala's comment on rural americans is truly a stab in our backs every time i go to vote i have to show my id or else i cannot participate why Why do people talk down the rural people? So sad. Because city people, they are the well-to-do,

good, moral, upstanding citizens who want to help the poor marginalized who don't know anything about them. Imagine that. It's like when someone comes to you and says, would you like to donate to help the poor children? And you give them 20 bucks and they go, thank you so much. And they go buy a cheeseburger with it. So these people in these cities are like i'm helping these poor poor rural people nothing you do is helping them the democrats don't care about the people in the cities actually want to help the rural people they'll help the poor people in the city but you know when when texas was having these like mass uh power outages there were plenty of liberal city elitists saying, oh, well, they

voted Republican. They're all these backwoods hicks. They voted Republican. They deserve it. They get what's coming for them. They don't really care. I don't know, but if city people are feeling contempt for country people, I think it's because they think, the city people think

the country people are cowards because they're not facing other humans. No, I think the city people think the country people are cowards because they're not facing other humans. No, I think that city people look down on country people because they think they're unsophisticated. They like their degrees and all that kind of stuff. But who provides your food? Who provides your energy?

They don't think about that, though. Sat says, if Tim thinks living in a broken nation will be fine because he has chickens, he's obviously never lived in a destabilized country before. Americans have it so good, and it shows when they say asinine comments like this. Or how about, Sats, you greatly underestimate my experience in many parts of the world. I've been to Venezuela. I've been to Egypt, Morocco, Ukraine.

I've been to Brazil. I've been to the slums. I've been to the favelas. Yeah, let me just put it in very simple terms. I didn't say life will be better. I said, actually, we'll lose a lot of our luxury. But I'll tell you this. I will be fine.

I know I will. I know most conservatives in rural areas probably will be fine. A large portion of them probably will not be fine. City people will be absolutely screwed. But I'll put it very, very simply. If the country destabilizes, my life will go from fantastic luxury to gutter trash. But guess what? I've been gutter trash. I've been homeless. I'm not scared of being in the middle of the woods and having to figure things out and surviving. That's just the real world. Everything else is just borrowed luxury. It's amazing to me how

Americans just live in the absolute of absolute luxury. And you still have these Occupy protests complaining. You still have people demanding the government give them more stuff and they barely work as it is. I've watched, I've seen, I've seen people who have no teeth and they're in their 20s because they mine sulfur and other garbage like that. I've been in countries where people live in hollowed out, destroyed buildings. I mean, I've actually been to a bunch of gutter squats in the United States, and I've seen how people live when they have nothing. And I've been to Venezuela, and we got to drive past the Tower of David, I think they call it, where they tried building a skyscraper and it failed and the company shut down. And now it's just people walking up 100 flights of stairs.

Bro, I've seen what destabilized countries look like. And when you live in the middle of nowhere and you can handle yourself and you're confident in yourself and you've prepared and you have research and you have resources, I'm not going to pretend like I'm Bear Grylls and I know how to, you know, I can fight a grizzly bear with my bare hands, but I can tell you this. I am resourceful and capable and I'm not worried. Will it suck? Yes, of course it will. I like skateboarding. I like going to the movies. All that goes away. But you know what? I'm a survivor. A lot of other people are, and I'll tell you who is going to truly regret it. It's the city people, not the country people. There's like, there's some dude

in a mountain right now who's like just super ripped and like chopping lumber. And he's like, why do I care about those people taking care of themselves, chopping the wood because you need the wood for the stove. You got to cook your food, going out hunting. You know what, man? I'm not going to pretend to have half the skill of those people, but I do know that I'm resourceful enough to survive in absolute chaos. All right.

Beastie Devil says, if the United States was to fracture into city states or smaller countries, what does this stop other foreign nations take advantage of the divisions and see an easy acquisition of new territory in the states? Just exactly why we said East Coast goes to Europe, Midwest and Northern states go to Canada, Southern states go to Mexico and the West Coast goes to China. Yep. That was the John Titor thing, I think, though. So it is what it is. All right. Let's see what we got. Let's see. I just saw something and I... Man of Culture says, speaking of comparisons to the Roman Empire, there was a period where they waged offensive wars in the name of security and defense of the empire. Sounds like the neocon Bush doctrine.

Yeah, it was like 400 BC to 600 AD, basically. The entire history of that country was aggressive war in the name of defense because in the very beginning they were rome was conquered and destroyed and 90 of the people were massacred so like they had this old consciousness of like we have to fight we have to kill our enemies before they destroy us it wasn't really it was like 300 bc to 580 or something all right let's see charles dixon says remember the bonham richard the first warship brought down in american waters by communist infiltration brutal pete conrad jr says as a former usmc sergeant i say whoever was in

command of a usn surrender to iranians should be njp'd and sent to the brig. P.S. This is Algernon. Will you help me find my daughter Madison? She watches your show, but I don't know how I can get her my phone number. I don't know either, but perhaps shouting it out will be enough. We'll see, I suppose. All right, let's see. Did I read this one already? Okay, I did read this one already. Don't want to double up. Let's see what we got here. Gohan the Fifth says, Hour of the Times.

Thank you for the super chat. Christopher says, Make sure Luke knows I saw a squirrel once. You guys should send Luke all of your love, and you can tweet at him and say, Luke, we love you, and follow LukeWeAreChange on Twitter, and let him know that no

Luke we puke every night before the show we all sit here and recognize that Luke isn't here and then we all just vomit profusely and then we got to clean it up and it's all over the table it gets in the keyboard it's like a 12th keyboard we've gone through because you just keep barfing because Luke's not here yeah it's true also I think it's funny that

people are like saying no Luke I puke when like Luke and puke don't rhyme yeah but then someone said no luke i duke and i'm like all right well it actually rhymes better yeah i don't want that no let's not do that gloom flower says i would love to buy an anti-crap t-shirt it would be so awesome that's actually a good idea love it critical race applied principles we are anti-crap. I don't know. Maybe that's a little too silly. I like it.

Abe Lee says the woke ideology in the military is going to lead to World War III. Our enemies will see it as an opportunity to attack. If we don't stop destroying ourselves from within, it will spell war on America's shores. This needs to change now. Yeah, you know, I agree. But unfortunately, it's a rot. The rot has gotten to the core. And now the foundations are falling down. This is the thing about similar to the Romans is if fill in the blank, then we will be attacked.

If something, something, then we will be attacked. So it's always like we're on the offense to prevent being attacked. We've created the military industrial complex to prevent being attacked because Hitler attacked. He attacked us. And the Romans were always afraid of being attacked. We've created the military industrial complex to prevent being attacked because Hitler attacked. He attacked us. And the Romans were always afraid of being attacked. And now we are too, it seems like. Maybe that's justifiable. Maybe it's like there is no homeostasis.

Either you're the aggressor or the aggressed. All right. I would love a homeostasis on this planet. Dan NS says, re Ian's app idea. What if instead of voting from the app, you put in your zip and get a list of proposed bills by city, state, federal,

along with info on who wrote and sponsors the bill and contact information for representatives at each level? I like that better. Fantastic. But that's still the problem. There is still that a lot of people who vote don't know or don't care. That's a good point. They're like, I'm going to put a mark on point they're like i'm gonna put a mark on the d i'm gonna put a mark on an r and then they walk out and the easier you make it the easier it is

to do that oh that's right that's true yep what is that people are saying luke is in the chat is he he is yeah oh he is yeah luke everybody's puking what are you doing? Where are you at? Atlas! That's Luke's dog. I bet you just went like, Atlas! So Luke was supposed to be gone for only a few weeks. What happened? We're still waiting. Lucas G. Mato says Max Kaiser and Alex Jones. Has that ever happened before? Cool. Cool energy. Has that ever happened before?

I don't think so. That has to have happened before. They're both such energetic individuals. That's so nice, yes. To put it mildly. That would be a lot of fun. Max is a Bitcoin guy, so he's not overly into a lot of the other political spaces. It'd be an interesting conversation, too. Yeah, all right.

Interesting, yeah. Maybe we'll do that. That's a thought. Lord Beerus says, ever consider Tom McDonald for your show? Might be fun. Well, yeah. Absolutely. So Tom has a standing invite, but I don't know if you've noticed at the rate he's dropping music,

that man is unbelievably busy and he's doing it all on his own with his girlfriend and his pal. So whenever he gets a break, we'd love to have him. All right. Jerome Morrow says, please create a fictional episodic show that starts as very thinly veiled narrative of the current activity of the American authoritarian left and then proceeds to depict the horrific nightmare dystopia that inevitably follows. Yeah, we could. You know, the thing is, like, CGI is getting relatively cheap these days, and you can do a lot with just one room that's all green. Oh. cheap these days and you can do a lot with just one room that's all green oh yeah so we could theoretically make a whole show a fictional sci-fi in filmed in one room they're crazy yeah you just

get one room and make the whole thing green and light it and light it up properly i suppose you you know you have to move the lighting for every you know every angle you're doing when you're filming but it's totally possible to do. That'd be awesome. Yeah, that'd be pretty epic. All right, let's see. We'll do one more right here. Amenthy says, how much in Super Chats to get Ian in the Rainbow Monkey costume for a Halloween show? I would do that for free.

Oh, wow. Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, my gosh. We are going to do, we're going to do, so as part of the new website, we're actually going to have like an auction functionality because what we're going to do for the live events, which hopefully we will have in the next like month or so, announce one of our first events. They were supposed to be months and months ago. We're a bit jammed up in the process. The way it's going to work is there's going to be first come, first serve as well as highest bidder.

We're trying to find a way to make it as maximally open as possible. Some people were like, I work 24 seven. How am I supposed to be able to go on the internet and buy a ticket before anyone else if I'm at work? And I'm like, so then maybe what we do is people can bid on tickets and we can also make it so that people can buy tickets if it's first come first serve. That way there's an option for people who are at work and don't have time but can spend a little bit more money and then people who don't have that much money but might have more time. I'm just trying to figure

out how to make it work. But we can do an auction on a variety of costumes like, you know, make Ian wear the rainbow bleep monk hat. I like doing it of my own free will. But if you want to entice me. We can have people buy costumes or something.

You know what we'll do? We'll do a poll. We'll have people vote. We'll have people submit costume ideas. Dude, send me clothes and I will wear them. Oh my God. Send me crazy outfits to the P.O. box and I'll wear them. Oh, I love it.

That's actually a good idea. Yeah. So at TimCast.com, and I think it's in the context actually, there's a P.O. box. Ian said it right there. Send Ian your clothes. You're going to get a bunch of banned t-shirts. That'd be fine. I need more clothes anyway, more crazy shirts. You're just saying that. Yeah, it's true. All right, everybody.

Go to TimCast.com. Become a member. At around 11 or so, we will have a members-only podcast up, which is the extension of tonight's show. That's where we talk about the things that YouTube tells us we can't really talk about. So, like, whatever Ian's costume might end up being, we'll say the actual name of it because we can't say it for the most part on YouTube. You can follow this show on Instagram and Facebook at TimCastIRL. We're also on TikTok at TimCast underscore IRL. We're just trying to leverage these networks to get people to go to the website because ultimately we want to have our own independent media platform that doesn't need any of these social networks. For the time being, though, we don't want to cede that ground in the

culture war by just abandoning them. So it's a double-edged sword, I guess. It's hard to know how to deal with this stuff because the censorship is really, really awful.
