According to a new poll, Joe Biden's approval rating is down to 38% among independents. It's really low and getting lower, and I can't say I'm surprised. And this country's in trouble. We've got Kellogg employees are going on strike now. We're being warned repeatedly. Today's show talks about how the mainstream media is finally getting on board. Food shortages, what you can't buy for Christmas. Now we're hearing Dr. Fauci say Christmas is canceled.

And then he comes out and says, actually, I misinterpreted the science. It's not canceled. So we'll see if it's actually canceled or not. But I will tell you this. When the news comes out across the board, the U.S. government could mint a trillion dollar coin because they have no money. I'm just like, wow, we're in The Simpsons now. It's a clown world. We're literally in an episode of The Simpsons.

That's how insane things are getting. But my friends, if you were fans of the show and you listened and you then did research and made your own financial decision, you may be extremely happy now because Bitcoin is through the roof. Crypto is through the roof. And this happens. The machine, the establishment will lie and tell you something bad about crypto. And then they trick poor people into selling. And then the people who got diamond hands and hold on to crypto are happy as can be. I genuinely believe that this economy is in serious danger. They're printing money like we've never seen before.

The M1 money sack is through the roof. Biden is just collapsing. And now they got this thing. It's really funny. Jack Posobiec, he shared this tweet where Joe Biden is sitting in like a fake studio version of the Oval Office with blooming flowers behind him in fall. And people are just like, yo, what is this? I mean, I don't even know what it is.

But many people said maybe they're just isolating him because COVID or whatever. And I'm like, yeah, that's a bad sign. Like the president still. So we're going to talk about this stuff. We got a lot to talk about. Joining us today is John Cardillo. Do you want to introduce yourself? Yeah, good to be here, guys. I don't just rant on Twitter. I'm such a nice guy. I came all the way here to see you guys. Well, appreciate it. But but used to be a cop. I was a cop in New York. Went into media. Hosted a couple of radio shows. Then most recently did a couple of years on Newsmax.

And about a year ago, just decided to go back into the private sector doing some production and finance work. Just wanted to take a break from media. I get yelled at enough on Twitter. Yeah. But you do have all those spicy memes and hot takes on Twitter. We'll definitely get to talking about a lot of this news stuff. We also got Luke Rogowski. I got some very exciting news. I officially have a room inside of the Beanie

Mansion and right now it's completely empty and I think I would love to do an experiment if this is okay. There's a blank wall. I want to volunteer this wall to you, the viewing audience. Anything you send to this Beanie Castle, I will have to put up on the wall.

We will see what kind of audience you have. There's a line. No, no, no, no. Anything and everything. I mean, it's blank. So whatever you guys want to send me, posters, anything that could go on the wall, anything, paper or pictures, we will have to go up on that wall. We're going to document it on the vlog. I think it's going to be interesting to see.

I think it could go either really horribly wrong or horribly well. We have the P.O. Box at TimCast.com. If you go to the About section, I think it's there. What's the address? Does anyone know? The P.O. Box? I don't know off the top of my head. The only thing I would ask is that people don't use Amazon and they

use something like Craigslist or eBay and try to purchase from other individuals. Whatever you guys send, send it to, I guess, Luke at... At P.O. Box 1229, Frederick, Maryland, 21702. So yeah, thanks for having me and I'm excited to see what you guys come up with. It was our receptionist's office. Yes. And Luke is like Jenna Maroney in 30 Rock. He was like, I am not doing this show without a room.

And we're like, Luke, you have a whole trailer. We'll give you power. And you were like, no, no, I need a room. And we were like, what can we do? And then we threw out the receptionist and put Luke in the receptionist's office. Damn right I need a room. There's going to be fuel shortages, energy shortages. It's going to be cold outside here near West Virginia.

And I want to make sure I'm going to be inside where the beanies are, where it's going to be nice and warm. Well, there you go. And I just would like to point out that Joe Biden is the reality show that no one would watch if he was not being propped up by the American government. When we see that in his fake set. Hi, everyone. I'm Ian Crossland. government yes but we see that in his fake set hi everyone i'm ian crossland i i don't hate joe biden personally but i think he's one of the worst aspects of the united states i've ever seen yeah you don't have to hate joe biden to be able to see that he's doing a really bad job and i'm really

interested to get into the numbers and see why independents don't like him at all very curious right on well of course lydia is their personal. I am. Yeah, that's me. Yeah. Don't forget to go to TimCast.com.

But don't forget, like this video, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, share that URL right now. And let's check out this story. To start everything off, everybody hates Joe Biden. Okay, not everybody, but enough.

Biden drops to 38% approval in new national poll. Majority questioned in poll say Biden administration not competent in running government. Now, we've seen other polls. We've seen polls saying he doesn't have the mental capacity to be president, that he's not competent enough to be president, and people generally don't favor him or approve of him. And this is just like he's getting peppered by constant bad press, bad approval. People don't like this guy. We have this.

This is from Quinnipiac, but we have this tweet here from Eddie Zipperer. Among independents, total approval is 32 percent in the economy, 33, foreign policy, 29, immigration, 22 percent approval on the situation at the mexican border 18 this is so bad i have to assume that we are going to see maybe maybe a red wave of epic proportions come uh november i see a nodding over there oh yeah yeah i think you look i think these uh if you look at the polls you dig into the crosstabs, and you guys have done it. I think those numbers are lower. I think Biden's overall approval among independents probably isn't out of the 20s, and there's an oversample not just of identified Democrats, but an oversample of independents who leaned in.

I agree. I think there's a gross oversample. I would be shocked if he was out of the 20s based on policy. Forget the speculation of dementia or cognitive disability. On performance and policy alone. Look, I'd have to say his approval rating is probably 3%, and that's just because of the margin of error. I don't know anybody who likes the guy. No, and you go to the – I don't remember a time in my life when I've gone to the supermarket or a Walgreens,

and there have been empty shelves. This is unheard of, but it's been going on. Yeah, and it's only going to get worse. It's only going to get exacerbated. I mean, there's apolitical college students literally screaming, let's go, Brandon, everywhere across the country. I mean, there's an epidemic of this and it's absolutely mind-boggling to see because colleges don't care.

They don't get involved in politics. NASCAR doesn't really get involved in politics. they may even wave the flag once in a while but they're not even that political it's about sports it's about letting loose and even then you have cheers of people there was a congressional baseball game even then he got booed and they showed him on the national teleprompter on the big teleprompter in front of everyone so again what is there to like that's brutal yeah that's where the democrats and republicans are being nice to each other at the baseball game yeah and they booed him there well in michigan today he got booed i mean that crowd that people that cheered him it was depressing it's like it sounded like a simpsons

i'm convinced it's not a simulation that we're in. It's a AI-generated sitcom. Oh, yeah. People are watching and laughing the whole time. The mainstream media put him in there, right? I think we could make that argument there. They would be running and applauding if he did anything good. They don't have anything to run and applaud for because he's not doing anything. Can we even name anything that the left has had a victory when it comes to Joe Biden?

Is there anything? If you support the Taliban, you'll be cheering and celebrating. Just destroying the United States. Look. Can we even name anything that the left has had a victory when it comes to Joe Biden? Is there anything there? If you support the Taliban, you'll be cheering and celebrating. Destroying the United. Look, this is the drug cartel members. Taliban members have never been happier. Right. Right.

At least there's that. But think about where we are as a nation. That's his approval rating right now. They're like among independent voters. It's zero. Democrats, you know, zero and Republicans zero. But among cartel members and supporters of the Taliban, it's at 97%. But we've got a corporate media. And look, I'm not even trying to be funny, but it sounds funny.

We've got a corporate media that has set the performance bar for the president and vice president of the United States to being able to order his own ice cream and her being able to flip a coin. I mean, this is where we are. I look at – you saw that story about Merrick Garland going after the parents. Oh, yeah. So for those that aren't familiar, you've got parents protesting critical race theory and masks and vax mandates. And now the DOJ for some reason thinks that local issues of harassment is a federal level

issue. But I see that and I'm like, the only reason they're doing that i think is because we now know the emperor has no clothes uh i remember talking to somebody about the atf and like the nfa and they said you know one of the issues with enforcing the gun control stuff is that there's not enough atf agents to police the entire country yeah just literally not possible not enough cops in general right right, right. So even for New York, I mean, how many cops are in New York? Yeah, yeah. Like 38,000? 38,000 sworn

and then about another 15,000 civilian and support staff. It's a lot of people. It's a big agency. But think about how many people are in New York. I mean, in the metro, what is it, like 9 million or 10 million? Yeah, and that's just NYPD.

Yeah, I mean, it's a $5 billion budget. NYPD's big, yeah, around 5 billion. If everybody was breaking the law, the police literally couldn't do anything about it. Nothing. However, I think, you know, because of that, what we're seeing with the federal government, you know, slamming an iron fist, they're desperately trying to get people to believe they have the power they don't have. That's right. But you said it right, Tim. I mean, harassment, threats.

These are not federal. There's no mechanism by which the FBI can prosecute these people, maybe in D.C. in the district because they don't have their own D.A. They use the U.S. Attorney's Office, but around the country. It hasn't stopped them before, though. You're talking about the FBI that literally makes up charges out of thin air. It goes against Michael Flynn. It goes against Mr. Stone.

Roger Stone? Roger Stone for lying to Congress. He lies to Congress nonstop. They've been doing it for years. They've been doing it for years. Clapper admittedly, the old DNI, James Clapper admittedly lied to Congress about spying on Americans. The NSA being weaponized against Americans. They didn't even reveal this until the statute of limitations expired.

There's a big ATF scandal today, too. I don't know if you guys heard it in the news. CBS News is reporting that there's undercover allegations of fraud, waste, and abuse at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, potentially involving hundreds of millions of tax dollars. Not surprised, not surprised. But look, this might be a little bit of what Inside Baseball. We all pay attention to politics.

I think a lot of people who are watching this show absolutely are tuned into politics but what about these approval ratings what about the sentiment you know of the regular american people how do we get to the point where people who go to a jets game are chanting let's go brandon i mean not literally but you get the point like what i gotta tell you i know a lot of people everybody knows a lot of people but i go on facebook and there's all these default democrat types who don't know anything. Republican bad. And I watch Stephen Colbert. And I believe, you know, whatever they tell me.

And now they're freaking out. Yeah. I got, this is the craziest thing. A communist who follows me on Facebook said to me, we can agree the vaccine mandates are statist authoritarianism. Yeah. And I was like, wow. Wow. Yeah. Okay, where do we go? We're here. This you're antifa okay now now we agree here okay what can we

do yeah where do we go from here how do we stop it but you make a good point look here's what i think here's why i think those approval ratings are what they are because i think we're now with biden's abysmal performance in an almost apolitical place. And here's what I mean. I don't care who you talk to. I don't care if you talk to a lib. I don't care if you talk to a conservative, a dem, an R. At the end of the day, I think most people care about three fundamental overarching issues,

money, safety, family, right? And within those are money. Do I make more money? Am I going to get a raise? Am I financially comfortable? And safety can be anything from not being killed in a terror attack to not being mugged to go into your car biden fails every metric on every issue exceedingly and demonstrably there isn't one core fundamental issue so i talk about i live in blue broward county florida people say well you know

you got those soccer moms yeah okay those okay, those soccer moms vote D. But do you know what else they vote for? They vote to keep that off-duty cop in his uniform in his marked car in the driveway of their HOA at night so their kids sleep safely. Defund the police doesn't sell with them. They want their kids to go to good schools. They'd rather a STEM curriculum, not a CRT curriculum.

So on every issue of importance to normal people, I don't care about your political persuasion. The president gets up, goes to work to support themselves, their family. The Biden administration is failing miserably. And I think that's translating into those poll numbers. There is one area where the Biden administration is doing exceedingly well. At failure? Well, I was going to say it's at being right for parody.

Yeah. Maybe dark humor. You know, because we've laughed several times into the show, and it's kind of funny, because it's like, imagine being on a plane that's spiraling out of control and going down, and we're like, dead pilots and dumbass! We're all laughing. It's like, dude, we're on this plane, too.

We're on the same plane as well. Usually the economy is correlated with a president's popularity, and the economy is tanking. And we have to understand that this huge, larger financial bubble is about to pop. The reckoning that we're seeing, not with just the labor shortages, not just with the supply shortages, but with the restrictions and mandates that are still in place right now as we're speaking, we are headed to a very dangerous time with very serious problems to our energy sector, to our power grid sector, to a lot of commonly used things that we take advantage of.

And that's why a lot of people are predicting a very cold and harsh winter coming up in just a few weeks from now. And I've been talking about it for a very long time. All the signs are there on the wall. Trouble is ahead, and it's going to be very serious financially. And that's going to, of course, correlate with the presidency that just tells you that trillions of dollars are really zero dollars, and they keep printing it out of thin air,

and they keep allowing the Federal Reserve literally just to keep pressing that button insanely to bail out all of their friends, to give it to all the banksters, to literally wash it out all through Wall Street as the rich get richer and everyone else gets screwed. And we have the record numbers of inflation, which is terrifying to see. I love showing the M1 money stock. Yeah. This is often as possible.

So people get an understanding. So here you can see, you know, going back to 1960, it's like the money supply was expanding and it stayed under 2000 billions of dollars. And then around the market crash, it starts to go up substantially faster, doubling within the span of 10 years. And then they change the rules to make savings accounts liquid. And all of a sudden,

the money supply jumps up by $12,000 billions. But the important thing you need to understand is since then, it's actually been skyrocketing faster than it's ever been. Even though they changed the rules, and a lot of people are like, see, they changed the rules. No, no, it's like they're dumping money like crazy. And now they're saying, we're going to pour platinum into a mold and have it say $1 trillion, and then we have the money. Imagine that kind of Monopoly money, Disney World money, level garbage.

People are just going to believe that? The Ponzi scheme is unraveling in front of everyone's eyes and they're they're realizing the money i have the the trust i have in the system is slowly dwindling away because just like inflation inflation is one of the largest taxes against people's savings their money is being eviscerated right in front of them they worked hard for it for the rest of their lives and now it's being taken away by a crazy administration that wants to have more diversity and woke programs and schools and jobs and everywhere else i mean it's just it's just absolutely insane to understand the the numbers here because people don't even quantify they hear trillion they don't understand the true reality of that number and how vast and huge it actually is. Is Joe Biden the patsy?

Yes. Yeah, I think he is. He's a puppet. I mean, I think he definitely is. Look, doesn't that set at the old executive office building tell you something? I don't remember a president doing that. That's just creepy. What was that?

He had a fake set that looked like the Oval Office. That's where he allegedly got his booster shot. Allegedly. But where was that? It was at the oeob across the street the old executive office because they said their excuses the lighting it was a larger room where they could set up a studio and set up lighting and give me a break yeah broadcast like yeah we we show the president in the oval office yeah for a reason yeah showing the president

in his office a show of strength have Have we lost the White House or something? Is something going on we don't know about? It's bizarre. But, you know, to Luke's point about inflation, you know, typically a president can survive even if they're horrible on one issue. But how do you survive when you're this abysmal on the economy? You're this abysmal on crime. And you're telling America every day. You're telling America every day that there is no justice.

There is an equal justice. You brought up Merrick Garland sending FBI agents to PTA meetings. This is sheer insanity. I don't know if he's gone that far, though. Well, but what I'm saying is that, okay, that's hyperbole. But my point is,

the mere fact the Attorney General of the United States would say, if you speak up at a school board meeting and we arbitrarily don't like what you said, because, look look they haven't defined i thought that josh hawley did a great job uh questioning that woman from doj i forget her name but he said look you're not being clear about this the terms you use i'm paraphrasing but he said the terms you use are arbitrary we don't know how you're going to apply these terms and that's

a pretty dangerous place for america to be so now you've got the person. They don't have to be politically astute or particularly nuanced, right? They know that if they get a speeding ticket, the average American tomorrow, they have to go to court. They've got to go to court, and they've got to waste a day, and they may have some draconian fine, and they may see their car insurance raised by a few hundred bucks a year, but they're watching the elites get away with massive frauds and massive felonies. They're watching

BLM and Antifa loot and burn and try to murder. They're watching and we'll get into it later, gangbangers in Chicago on video in a shootout not being prosecuted and they're saying, I'm not getting this break. There's something fundamentally wrong here. They're watching people walk across the border as they're told

they need tests and Exactly, yes. And now possibly even a passport to even another additional vaccine passport just to potentially even get into the United States. I do think that there's – everything that we're seeing, I think it is having an impact on regular people. Check out this story. Bill Maher on crowds hunger – I'm sorry. Bill Maher on crowds hunger for mocking wokeness quote for the first time i am playing to a mixed audience bill maher dings democrats for leadership since trump left office i would have liked a little more competence yeah bill maher is not the the most you know like

fall in line kind of guy he's always been you know i'll say what i feel like saying but when bill maher all of a sudden is now getting a mixed audience, I mean, regular people are saying enough. So this is I think the guy should have taken the red pill a long time ago. It seems like he purposefully ignores these stories. And I do think that I'm willing to bet that Bill Maher deep down inside knows how bad it is, how screwed up the establishment and the Democrats are. But he has to be careful because his audience is all liberals. I mean, look at SNL. They have so much material to work with.

They have so many controversies. They have so many hiccups. They have so many just absolute goofball, insane moments. And then they go light on Joe Biden. Compare how they treated Donald Trump. Compare how the media treated Donald Trump. I mean, when Donald Trump was in office, every COVID death was responsibly, mainly because of Donald Trump's policies.

The numbers are going up. Biden's not being held responsible for that. It's also who they work for, right? I mean, you take Maher at HBO, the powers that be at HBO are as far left as you can be. He doesn't, I mean, the guy's making a good salary. You know, it's similar to when people say, well, you know, if there are good agents at the FBI

or there are good agents at ATF, speak up. Yeah, easier said than done when you're making that kind of salary, living check to check, and you've got a family to support. Not that easy to blow up your career. With a guy like Maher, you blow up your brand, you blow up your influence, you blow up your salary. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it. I mean, thank God he's not Colbert and the vaccine dancers. That was creepy and weird and freaky. But, you know, know you got to keep your

audience to an extent so how far can you push yeah but i think the real issue is bill maher lost his audience a long time he may have yeah i mean he's retained his viewership yeah i think it's like 800 000 900 000 you know viewers per episode yeah relative to most other late night it's relative for him it's it's yeah's low. I'll tell you this. I stopped watching a long time ago. Because you look at when he came out against the Covington kids. It was a week after the story had already been fact-checked, and then he came out wrong. And I'm like, dude, do you have Google?

I can't watch this stuff. And so maybe now he's finally realizing, oh, those people who used to watch me. I used to watch Bill Maher all the time since I was a teenager. And now I'm older, and I'm like, I can't watch the guy. He doesn't even read the news. He probably has somebody read the news for him and tell him what to say. And they don't even fact check anything. Then he comes out and has mangled opinions that don't make sense.

But he's now starting to realize what's going on. You mentioned something earlier. We're talking about Joe Biden's approval rating. You said on the three metrics, which is, I think, money, safety and family overarching. So there's there's there's there are these I think those are maybe not specifically that, you know, those three things. But similarly, they say that if people don't have security, shelter or food, they they revolt. And so when you look at the Arab Spring, people were saying food prices were going up. And so people were backed into a corner. People who are fat and happy don't revolt ever. But when the shelves are running dry,

the shipping containers are backed up in California, and Fauci goes on TV and says, no Christmas, then people are going to be like, my head is going to explode. And then you see the parents show up. And that's how it starts. We had Bannon on the show. Shout out to Bannon for being right. He said the parents are going to revolt when they find out what's happening with their kids. The government reacts. Merrick Garland. Regular people. This is why Bill Maher is actually playing to a mixed audience.

Because regular people who are supposed to be his audience the whole time, it's not mixed. This is the same people who used to watch him. They just have been paying attention and he hasn't. I think regular people are on the verge of just snapping off. But you know what? Most hosts are lazy. I think regular people are on the verge of just snapping off. But you know what? Most hosts are lazy. I'm going to say something about my industry, your industry. We know this, right?

I enjoyed the research, but most hosts are pretty – not most, but a good portion are lazy. They come in. They sit down. They hope the prompter is already filled out by their producers. It's been populated. They get the stories. They get some clippings. They go through the motions.

Even when they're supposed to be opinion commentators, I won't name any names, but they're lazy as sin. And with that laziness comes terrible content, a lack of critical thought, a lack of critical research, and it happens on both sides. And unfortunately, it's happening more on the right. And we're the ones who really need to be doing this. I was here with you guys for a few hours.

You guys were researching intensively. I used to do that on my show. I can tell you, having been on radio, two major networks, having been on TV, that's not the norm. Sadly, that's an exception these days. Yeah, there's a lack of passion. There's a lot of actors, and there's a lot of people who abuse substances in the media business

more than you would even be surprised to know. Get out! A lot of them are using substances, pills, in ways that you'd be absolutely shocked to find out about. But they just rely on their producers. These producers cycle through, right? Oftentimes you find these producers are in their early 20s, zero life experience.

They don't know the backstory on the story. They're reading the history of it, who the players are, what a player in the Biden administration might have done nefariously in the Obama administration. That deep research, that understanding of the content, the historical understanding just isn't there. Well, a good example is when we had Vosch on the show. And I was talking about, you know, to me, it's funny to see these leftists supporting

Joe Biden because we were literally protesting him during Occupy Wall Street. Like he was the vice president. He was the partly, you know, he was a large portion of what people were angry with. The bank ballots, all this stuff was under under under the Obama administration. And he went, I was like, I don't know, 10 years old. I don't remember that. And I was like, oh, no, I don't I don't mean to disrespect by that. He literally wasn't politically active or old enough to understand what's happening

during Occupy Wall Street. And so, you know, I think people need to realize this. He literally wasn't politically active or old enough to understand what was happening during Occupy Wall Street. And so I think people need to realize this. When you wonder why the leftward shift happened, it's because young people don't know anything about politics, and the right didn't do a good enough job teaching young people. So what happens is the old school right has effectively been just – they're just gone. They're older folks, and now you have this millennial right, which is fairly moderate. So the wheel is shifting. Then you get these people like Jack Dorsey and others.

Now, I'll give a shout-out to Jack Dorsey for shouting out Rothbard and things like that. That surprised me. Yeah, that was surprising. But you get the people working, these millennial leftists at big tech, and they infiltrate cultural institutions. They take over. And then all of a sudden, anyone who is further right than moderate is excised. But I think with the Marr stuff, I bring it up because I think it's a good example of regular people reaching their wits end. They're waking up.

But I don't want to be too optimistic. Maybe there will be a big red wave. Maybe people just don't care. I think the know maybe there will be a big red wave maybe people just don't care no i think the numbers show there will be i've met with a couple i had lunch today excuse me with a couple of uh pretty astute political strategists one pretty well known on our side on the america first side and they're encouraged by the numbers they're encouraged by what they see in 22 so i think we do see a red wave but going back to your point about the culture we are so far behind i mean we are i don't know how we catch up and part of the problem is we don't even

understand so many on the right don't even understand what taking back the culture means i have these debates and even when i was on air and off air and on twitter and they'll say to me but we have Dinesh. Now, look, I think Dinesh is a great guy. I love the guy. I know him personally. But that's not what we mean. You can't say we have Dinesh when they have Hollywood

and they have the music industry and they've got the television industry and they've got every producer and they've got their line of succession at the journalism schools ready to take over who are more, those millennials you talk about, Tim, who are even more left-wing. They've got their generational lines of succession in place

for two generations, and we're talking about documentaries. I mean, we are foundationally so far behind. I don't know how we make that ground up. You've got to build technology that allows people to take it back for themselves individually. The metaverse is the way to go. Culture comes downstream from the technology of the day.

And then downstream from that, you start to see politics created out of it. Who controls Silicon Valley, though? Well, a lot of very strange, weird, rich people right now. The idea is no one controls it. It's a neutral ability for everyone. So that's one of the things that we're working on with the Open Network Foundation. Some of the work that Ian's been spearheading is open source know, open source social media technology so that people can't be banned. But that's just the machine.

Like you're talking about building an Iron Man suit. Someone's got to pilot it. So how do you get to the point where the right, and I don't mean like the political right, I mean like the culture war right, whatever it really means, the pro-freedom people, let's say that. The pro-liberty, individual liberty, the pro-America, America first. How do you get those people to start building culture?

Well, I'll put it this way. You've got to start doing it, and you've got to go faster than they're doing it. That being said, when you look at Colbert doing the vaccine shuffle or whatever, I'm not all that worried. You know, I think, look, this is what we're doing at TimCast.com. When you guys become a member, we've got the Cast Castle vlog, which was the first show we launched. Of course, we have this show, and we have, like, I do my show and this show. This is overt discussion about political issues. It's in your face. It's super liminal. But then

we have the Cast Castle vlog, where we have, like, the dogs running around. We get the chickens, you know, they're funny and they make funny noises. And then we have, like, jumping over the Tesla on a BMX, and we have skating, and we go to the, you know, the river, and we go to the technology stores. We go buy a bunch of weird rocks that is just fun random interesting stuff but that's culture that's culture that's

and so the goal is now we just launched tales from the inverted world with shane cashman hosting it's mystery paranormal ghosts cryptids true crime and the goal is produce good cultural content and have your values translate out through it. So when we start doing – we're working on a new pop culture show. When we start doing that, it's going to be talking about a lot of general pop culture stuff. It's not going to be political, but of course you're going to hear these opinions like don't ruin James Bond. And it's going to be very defensive of good content, so it's going to be critical of Hollywood. And that's the kind of thing where you create a space for regular people who share your values to grow and flourish

and for the kids to find a space where they can get good values and good ideals and share them. But the other problem we have on the right, and I couldn't agree more with every word you said, in terms of also the content selection. This is engaging stuff. Our rich guys don't put their money up, whereas the rich guys on the left do, right? And I've banged my head against it.

I've had this argument time and time again with big donors, not just about culture, but even about races. We just watched an election go down, a lot of frustration at county levels, audits, et cetera. No matter what side you fall down on that, the fact remains, elections are decided at the county level. You go to the RNC, you go to big establishment Republican donors, you tell them, hey, look, guys, Soros, South Fox, you're here.

He's been funding DAs and supervisors of elections because he understands it doesn't matter if it's a general presidential or school board. They're the people not only deciding it or counting it. They're the ones investigating any impropriety. The Dems own 99% of them around the country. You go to the RNC with that, they look down on you. Oh, we don't get involved in that. We get, no, no, no.

We go to the dinner parties in D.C. Oh, God, no. We drink, you know, cappuccino with our pinky out. We're not going to go to some dirty county with the unwashed masses and fly over country. That's not what we do at the RNC. That's why we have Joe Biden in the White House. Voter engagement, voter registration. Now, Florida was different, and people don't tell this story.

In Florida, we had a very robust grassroots effort, and it started a little bit before the election. It continued throughout. We had Rick Scott, who got rid of two terrible supervisors of elections. Bless you. Bless you. DeSantis continued that. With that, they shone a light on a lot of these problems in the super elections offices.

Well, what happened? A story you never hear in the mainstream media. Donald Trump won Florida in 2020 by two and a half times what he did in 2016, doing no small part to those efforts. Why? Because money poured in. Money poured in and attention poured in. If we did that around the country, we can move the needle in elections. And if that same money started funding culture, we could start to move that needle. But again, they don't do it. So if

we're going to place the blame on, we can place it on conservative content creators not going in the right direction. But we also have to place the blame on our big money that refuses to get into the fight. They won't step into the fight fight there are some people who think that i can't remember i was talking to a while ago and uh i i consider myself to be fairly immoderate my my idealism brings me to like left libertarianism but my realism makes me kind of just a moderate centrist and uh what i was told was they were like the reason your show works is because you're not a suit wearing traditional conservative but you're talking is because you're not a suit-wearing traditional conservative, but you're talking about freedom, you're questioning the establishment narrative.

And I think that actually is a good point. When you look at Turning Point USA, for instance, they do a good job. They're extremely effective, but are they cool? I'm so sick of seeing red, white, and blue sets. It's so obnoxious. They're kind of cringy with some of the stuff that they release, but you brought up some very important points because I think there's a reason why George Soros is literally giving

over $2 million to Kim Fox in Chicago. There's a reason why they're getting involved on such a local level and the impact of it is real. We get all that, but how come every time you can have these people on the right talk about how they understand you're losing the cultural battle,

that the left is funding DAs. They're getting into the nooks and crannies in every single way, and the right still just has this culture of being stodgy and uptight. America is an empire, which is a big problem, because pro-America to a lot of people might mean pro-imperialism. I'm very much for the Constitution and what it was meant to produce, but I'm not for the takeover of Afghanistan and Iraq and the absorption of materials from around the world, military bases. I understand you want to prevent total war and the idea of limited war, but I don't like that. I don't want to rip up the United States completely. But most conservatives are

going your way. I think most conservatives, Ian, are starting to shift your way. I know I am. Was to shift your way i know i am was it uh the american conservative i think who said fire john bolton hire tulsi gabbard yeah i think yeah that was and i'm like yeah i'll take it and i think most people on the right well on the america first right right looked at that and said yeah yeah okay yeah you're not putting in charge of economic policy right you're telling her to stop wasting our money in afghanistan but are they the majority or are neo-conservatives who are bought out by the military industrial complex, who want more conflict, who have failed this country time and time again?

I think the Bush presidency absolutely destroyed the Republican Party and has put an absolutely disgusting face on the Republican Party because it's a party of corruption. It's a party of war. It's a party that will lie to you about WMDs have lost the trust of middle america because of that presidency but luke your question is a great one it might be one of the most important questions and i think the answer is the 2022 republican primaries are going to answer that question yes the primaries are everything because people keep saying i hear i hear this i two things. There's going to be a red wave in 2022. And then people say, and what do Republicans do anyway?

What's the point? And that's why I'm like, go to the primaries. Make sure the neocon, the establishment, thumb twiddlers or whatever, dilly dallers, aren't the ones who are getting in. Put support behind the people who you know and trust who say they're going to help this country. They're going to help the American workers. They're going to help our borders. They're going to help trade. They are going to bring back jobs, not ship them off to foreign countries.

Get those guys in the primaries. Primary McConnell and Lindsey Graham, like, come on. I'll be honest. The things you were just saying, it just sounded like rhetoric. I almost started to tone out while you were talking just then. Bring back jobs. Fix the economy. Like, I have heard that my entire life, and it's meaningless to me.

What are you specifically going to do? Are you going to build a graphene facility in Washington, D.C.? Give me some specifics. What's your plan? Fusion generators in Ohio? The famous story is Donald Trump going to the auto manufacturers and saying, if you ship your factories overseas or across the border, I will

tax you at 30% and no one will ever buy your car again. Put your factories in America. Give Americans jobs. But if your factories and your bank accounts overseas, then what's the difference? Under Donald Trump's presidency, they did bring back auto plants to Michigan. And they invested, I think it was like $3 billion. Yeah, it was a good amount. A thousand jobs.

So if people don't have jobs, what happens? They end up unemployed in middle America that the elites call flyover country, and they start doing opioids. They start getting addicted. They have nothing to do anymore, nothing to live for, and they go to the hotspot slot machines and just gamble away doing nothing. People need purpose. They need work. If they don't have work, they can't generate revenue. Purpose and work are different, though. You could give a guy a job to dig a hole- That's why I say them separately.

And another guy to fill the hole up. And now they're busy not looking at you, who's the banker, profiting off of both of them, but they both have jobs. So it's actually really simple. Right now, there is an establishment. Democrats and Republicans alike have been extracting from this country for decades, sending jobs overseas. What does that mean? It means that when you get money and then spend it on a product, it goes to a massive multinational corporation, and then it pays out salaries in foreign countries, the money leaves your community. When there's less money in your community, your community becomes impoverished, and then people fall to drugs and poverty and crime, and cities start decaying.

We are seeing small towns across the country falling apart, populations leaving, kids growing up and saying, I got to get out of here. There's nothing here for me. We need to reinvigorate American industry so that people have work to do. And it doesn't mean archaic, you know, old technologies that are pollutants. It means new innovations to technologies. But so long as you have the Democrats who say, we're going to jack up the price to hire workers, we're going to then increase the tax on your corporation, but remove all tariffs.

You're telling those companies, look, if you hire the Chinese people who are going to work for a dollar an hour and you don't got to pay them health care, we're not going to tax the goods they produce. You are telling them to extract from this country. So we need Republicans. I mean, I'll take anybody at this point. I don't care what party, libertarian or otherwise, who is going to say we need to actually have some policy, some regulation that says we will not let you extract the value of American innovation and send it to foreign countries to profit.

You are stealing from the American people when you do that. But I think you can even simplify that. And to both of your points, we need to distill our messaging. All right. Right now, people are pissed off. They are angry. Those primaries, I truly believe, and I've been involved in politics since I was a teenager and throughout law enforcement, any private sector company I've been involved in politics since I was a teenager and throughout law enforcement I any private sector

company I've been involved in has always had some kind of regulated product whether it be firearms or ammo or something like that it's simpler than that you we need primary candidates on the right it's almost neo-neo conservatism right let's you know out with the old in with the new that first educate America and they turn turn America onto the fact of what you said. Both parties are against you. They hate you. They look down on you. You're nothing.

You're a serf. You're meaningless to them. You're a worker bee designed to do the job. The lobbyists who pay them want you to do to enrich those companies. So until you teach Americans that the uniparty, the establishment of both parties, are the same people, they hang out at the same parties in D.C., they go to the same parties in Hollywood, that you've got to bust it because it's a cartel is what it is. And you have to start likening the D.C. establishment to one of the Mexican drug cartels. It's all it is, right? Sinaloa and New Generation, yeah, they kill each other.

But at the end of the day, they're all enjoying money from the same pie and destabilizing the US in the process. You have to educate the people, the candidates that come out punching and start pointing out leadership. You know what? Even if you elect me, you may like me, I might be America first, but if you elect me and you don't elect more like me, then you're stuck with a Kevin McCarthy, a speaker who's John Boehner and Paul Ryan 2.0 and 3.0 so give me some support give me a caucus that can elect the speaker to move the needle and most importantly state legislatures people have got to start learning that their state legislatures their county commissions affect their lives far more than federal politicians do until we bust the cartel up and we have enough bodies in there

fighting all of these things are platitudes. What's a good way to get involved with state legislature? That's the easiest, right? You can join your county party and bring 10 of your like-minded friends in. Kind of be a jerk in there. Get loud and buck the system. How many states do we need for a convention of states? What do we need?

Two-thirds? 34, I think. 36? We need two-thirds. Is it 37? Whatever, two-thirds. And we have what, 35? We need like 32 and 38 for a vote, I think.

So if we change the complexion of those legislatures, we may never even have to move to a national divorce. We might just be able to put enough fear in these people that they'll say, okay, the right is now serious and it's formidable. Because right now we're not. The Democrats know they can steamroll us. You made a very good point, and I wanted to kind of add to it. Because when you look at the mafia and the government, there's not much difference in how they operate. They're almost the same exact thing. No difference at all. Thank you. Exactly. Look at the mafia and the government, there's not much difference in how they operate. They're almost the same exact thing. There's no difference at all.

Thank you. Exactly. Look at the Fed and look at private sanitation. There actually is an important difference. We have a chance to actually get in and affect government. Yes. We've got to get in at the state level. Now, the mafia, I mean, you can try and join the mob.

You might have better chances with the mafia. I think I'm the only guy in the room eligible. I'm the only full-blown. You need 34 states to call the convention and 38 to ratify an amendment that's proposed. So I don't know how many. I think it's, what, 35 Republican states, maybe not. That means if you can get real America first state reps in these jurisdictions, and maybe even having all these states, a Republican doesn't guarantee they'll be in favor of this.

But if you get a few more states, if people go at the state level and vote for people who actually mean it we could just have an art was an article 5 convention of states yes what do you need the governors i think state legislatures and that's a lot easier to do and then they can they can all they can amend the constitution yeah they can amend it but you need 38 to ratify but the point is you don't even need to get that far the simple fact that they see this grassroots groundswell starting to work not not just coming, but actually starting to be effective, having some utility, that's when they become very afraid. And that's if you remember, go back to was the Bush Clinton race, right? Bush was assumed the winner after he won the Gulf War quickly. You know, Kuwait was freed again.

Not that it's free. You get what I'm saying? He pushed the Saddam out of Kuwait. Even one of my professors in college said, George Bush just won his reelection. It's done. Nobody should run. And then Bill Clinton played the saxophone on MTV. Really, right?

And then what did Bush do? Oh, no, I hear you. You want change. You want something new. He completely pivoted. He threw his 40-some-odd years in politics out the window, completely pivoted. But by this point, he was playing catch-up. Clinton had already opened a gap that was never going to be closed and entered into, ushered in a new era of politics.

But if you put a little fear in the establishment, a little fear, and you start to see, they start to see that the numbers are moving away from them, they'll do what you want. We saw that in 2008 when the CNN YouTube debates happened for the first time. We were pushing hard on YouTube, 2006 and 2007, for just control of politics as young Americans. That's right. And they capitulated immediately, and then they put those people, but they hand-selected what questions got to be seen.

I asked about the Federal Reserve. They ignored me, but I was a loud voice in that seen. I asked about the Federal Reserve. They ignored me. But I was a loud voice in that movement. We do have good news on this front, though. Check out this story from Fox News. Group that works to elect GOP officials at state level showcases record fundraising haul. Republicans look to strengthen their upper hand in control of state legislative chambers. I think at this point the state is the most important function right now.

And people are heavily focused on Congress and the Senate and the presidency. But there's a huge opportunity right now. I think people are seeing it. Which group is that, Tim? Did they name it? So this is. I got to scroll down a little way. This is our the Republican State Leadership Committee.

OK. We'll announce Wednesday that along with its strategic policy partner, the State Government Leadership Foundation, it hauled in a combined eight point three million dollars in fundraising during the July-September period, which the RSLC said is the most it's ever brought in in the third quarter of an odd year. So that's massive. They say they noted that the $19 million it and the SGLF have brought in through the first nine months of the year exceeds the total of the two groups raised in all of 2019 which was the comparable uh the comparable off election year in the 2020 cycle this is this is big it's huge if the states all just start saying look california illinois new york oregon whatever we don't care maybe washington we are all in favor of these

changes the states can do it without the federal government's involvement. We were talking about this yesterday, especially when it comes to gun rights that have actually been expanding comparatively on the state level, not on the federal level. And when you look at the states that passed constitutional carry, that list keeps growing. It's going to keep growing, and that's an amazing thing. And as I said yesterday, I'm not hopeful at all at the federal system. The local system, I do have some optimism. But we also have to acknowledge here that the Republicans are kind of at war with each other. You have the Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney,

Lindsey Graham party, and then you have the Rand Paul, Thomas Macy, and other representatives of the party that are absolutely, totally different on a spectrum that's very wide. So even if Republicans do get in, I'm still, to be honest, skeptical of them. I think people should be skeptical of politicians because there's a chance that, again, the same corporations that support the left support the right, and it could just turn out to be another situation where we're just going back in circles. But I think there are more people now gravitating toward the Rand Paul, the Massey section. You know, look, you made a good point about guns.

I'm glad you brought it up. It goes to what I said about you show them a little bit of fear and they'll back off. The reason Obama never went after guns, he saber rattled and he claimed he was because he knew he could never sell. Trump went after guns. Trump went after guns more than Obama ever did. And his base put up with it. And that infuriated me that his base put up with it. And that infuriated me. His base put up with it.

They put up with the Bumstock ban, which was ridiculous. One incident. Here's what I'm trying to say, though. Even Biden's people, who are politically savvy, understand that if they were to try to pass sweeping gun reform, Manchin, Sinema, and Tester

could never go, unless they just wanted to be crushed in primaries by more conservative Dems and then crushed in the general by ours. They know they can't get this passed. The one issue that the Dems will always saber-addle on, but they're terrified of, losing seats. We need to do that with every issue. We need people in these state legislatures and in Congress who put that fear into them on every issue and we just refuse to elect them because we keep electing that you know

I think Liz Cheney is going to lose her primary by about 50 because South Dakota Wyoming rather is not happy with it. Look you said Christy Noem

was one of the most popular governors in the country. A couple of misstatements she's toast. I'd like to see a 28th amendment and it can be really simple.

It just says re- second amendment yeah not be infringed we're asserting it actually it could be i'm joking but it can be a bit more specific all legislation uh related to uh gun gun uh gun ownership is hereby revoked gone that's eliminated or amend the second and just put that comma that we always should have put the right of the people to keep and that comma that we always should have put, the right of the people to keep and bear arms because we understand how tyrannical a government can be and add something about it as an individual right, the right, boom, should not be infringed. It used to actually say that regardless of military service,

you can bear arms. But they were worried it would be argued you could avoid conscription or something like that. So they said, we'll simplify it. But now we have, you know, we went to the gun store the other day and i got a calico m100s it's a fun little crazy thing the boba fett gun and uh you can't have it in maryland so it's in my house in west virginia and i'm just like you know we get all of these democrats saying no one's trying to take your guns away no just i'm like dude it's a 22 yeah it's like and they call it an assault weapon yo they

are taking our guns away all the time there's a huge list of guns you can't have in all of these places so when they say the right to keep a bear arm shall not be infringed and you literally can't own an m1a which is not some futuristic sci-fi power weapon then you it's bs so i'll tell you i'll tell you what we can do a lot of good with the Convention of States. I'd be really happy if we just had any one of these members of Congress to at least try to repeal some of these garbage laws.

Or how about this? There can be two laws proposed by any one of these, you know, populist candidates right now. I'm not seeing it. Repeal the NFA and perhaps some overarching legislation

protecting the rights of individuals with the power of the federal government from states who seek to oppress their right to keep and bear arms. Listen, I think you get a populist candidate who just proposes to repeal the NFA and abolish the Department of Education. And the ATF and the IRS. You guys are getting me excited here. Watch out. Like, holy cow. I wonder if someone ran on abolish the irs would that would

that win what i mean because you got to think about i think they would audit their campaign to the point they crippled them but think about this what i mean what the republicans would be like what do we do like if we go after this person we'll lose support so they'd be too timid and scared like the established republicans the democrats would be running campaigns saying the irs is good. Yeah, they would. And how many people who have like – you ever see those commercials where it's like, in trouble with the IRS? Call us today and we'll negotiate your debt.

Those people are going to be like, I'll vote for him. That's right. I mean, they're already doing it. Janet Yellen came out and said the IRS rule requiring banks to report all transactions over $600 is something that is worthwhile to do. She's defending that policy and saying we need to implement it. If we had a convention of states,

I'd love to see some wacky stuff. And I don't mean like overtly wacky, just like as soon as it's called, some guy goes, Amendment 28, abolish the IRS. Hear, hear, and they all bang the gavel. Amendment 29, ATF next. You got it.

Bang, bang, bang. But that's what would put the fear of God into that. That's exactly what I'm talking about. FBI, see you later. Boom. You know, I mean, that's what we need to do. Because what we've, let's face it, there's no reason whatsoever that we should have. I think today, as we sit here, there are 144 federal law enforcement agencies.

Bureau of Land Management has a law enforcement agency. Department of Education has one. Department of the Interior has one. It's lud ludicrous it is absolutely ludicrous federal protective service runs around and they guard federal buildings that have other law enforcement agencies in them that have their own uniform divisions that could guard the building the amount of waste the amount of taxpayer money wasted on this. And look, the creation. It was the creation of an authoritarian police state, but it was also the normalization of it, right? People are so used to seeing so many different federal agencies that carry guns and badges and can lock you up.

And talk about the U.S. Code, right? Every American wakes up in the morning and does something to violate some criminal statute. In either the U.S. Code, their state law, county ordinance, everybody, even including like toddlers who get up in the morning. It's ludicrous. And I think we need real reform in terms of repolation of bills, but you'll never see a bill repealed. I had a conversation about six years ago with a very conservative, put that in quotes, Florida state senator. And I asked him this. I said, look, in quotes, Florida state senator. And I asked him this. I said, look, we're a red state. We pride ourselves on being conservatives. I think Rick Scott was governor at the time. Why don't we repeal anything? And he said,

and I almost choked on my drink. He said, we're legislators. We legislate. I said, but you're supposed to be a conservative. He says, yeah, but our legislation is conservative. I wanted to bang my head on the table. They should have sunset clauses written into them. Every bill. Every bill. Every bill. Recently, the government ran out of money. They were like, we don't have enough money. We've got to raise the debt ceiling. How about you stop spending money you don't have?

Why is that such a crazy idea? And now McConnell's on board. We don't have conservatives even arguing against that. And the Institute for Policy Studies literally came out that the average day an American commits three felonies. Yeah. So the U.S. government is an abusive, significant other who is a deadbeat, doesn't work, threatens

you. You come home, smacks you around and says, give me the money. You know I love you. Yeah. They only do it because they love you. Yeah. The federal government loves you. Right.

It's really bad. And the problem is we're now normalizing it even you. Yeah. They only do it because they love you, Tim. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The federal government loves you. Right. No, it's really bad. And the problem is we're now normalizing it even more, right? So with CRT and with woke culture, kids are being conditioned to believe that the FBI persecuting people who... Listen, tell you guys a story, which is chilling. I've got a friend who's on one of the JTTS, the Joint Terrorism Task Forces, which if your viewers, listeners don't know, those are FBI-managed task forces in pretty much every major city, every major region.

That includes state police, local cops, other agents from federal agencies. This is one in the Northeast, in a large area. His team alone, and there are dozens of these around the country, his team alone received in one month almost 200 referrals from DOJ, from FBI's Washington field office on January 6th. Suspects. 77 warrants on the bank accounts of people who weren't even in D.C. on January 6th. They didn't receive one referral on Antifa or BLM. Not one. And when they asked why, they were told receive one referral on Antifa or BLM. Not one.

And when they asked why, they were told stand down. Leave it alone. Now, that's one JTTF team. All right? If you don't think the FBI has been weaponized for political persecution, you're not paying attention. And this is from a guy who built his media career first on supporting, analyzing, and defending law enforcement. It's abysmal. It's chilling what's happening here.

They have weaponized that agency. But that's the entire government. I keep tweeting. It's abysmal. It's chilling what's happening here. They have weaponized that agency, but that's the entire government. I keep tweeting. That's what I... I mean, that agency has been politicized from its very beginning with J. Edgar Hoover and what he was doing against JFK, MLK.

It was absolutely disturbing to see the start of this federal agency that has been continuing to be extremely political when they're not supposed to be. And they don't really have a mission anymore, the FBI. They're like a sea of generalists in a field of specialists, right?

DEA does drugs, ATF does guns. They shouldn't, but they do. HSI is doing terror and a lot of the child porn and child trafficking. You know, if FBI wants to be investigators for DOJ, do public corruption fine? The National Security Branch, we thought, was effective until we saw what they did in the Trump-Russia case. I think heads need to roll for that still. But it's an agency really without a specific mission

and every, when you're a hammer, everything looks like an L. This is why I've been saying abolish the police for the past several months. Right now we're at this period where, I mean, you look to Australia. Nightmarish. You can't travel. I mean, these videos that are coming out are getting increasingly crazier. People have to take pictures of their faces, otherwise the cops show up.

In the United States, you have conservative areas. They want a right to keep in bare arms. Some of these conservative areas are in blue states where they have no right. And it is the police who will come and arrest you for exercising your Second Amendment right. There's a story I often tell of a woman who lives in Pennsylvania and had a legal concealed carry and crossed the bridge to Jersey. Didn't understand. Yeah, I spoke to that woman.

I know who you're talking about. It was a famous story, right? Yeah, yeah. They turned her – like they ended up trying to charge her. I had her on my show. It was terrible. She had a permit in Pennsylvania. Right.

And she came into Jersey. Actually, she just made a wrong turn off the highway. Wound up in Jersey, was pulled over, and they wanted to put her in federal prison. And that was a police officer who did that. officer then it then then federal charges applied because she came across state lines it was so so what i say is this look if you're in a conservative area and you're very much pro responsibility personal responsibility gun rights then you're not really worried about the police for the most part shanine allen that was her name shanine so so we're in the middle of nowhere there's There's not cops nearby.

We don't have a large – we have a sheriff's department. We can call and maybe they'll show up eventually. It's mostly for administrative stuff. If something happens, the responsibility, the onus is on us to defend ourselves, protect our rights the best we can. And then afterwards, as soon as whatever conflict is being resolved, you try and get the police to come and sort things out. In big cities, you don't live in a big city. Conservatives don't live there. Why are they supporting big city cops who the left are complaining about? If the left says they don't want police, then OK, then we're in agreement. We don't live there. We don't care about how you want to live. Let them live the way they want. The big problem I see for the most part with policing as

we move forward under Joe Biden, Capitol Police, for instance, are being weaponized nationally. nationally now i'm sure there's a lot of good local cops nypd aren't they're refusing to enforce a lot of the mandate stuff but we did see state police willing to absolutely go totally unconstitutional and start harassing small business owners so i'll put it this way i'm not saying you know when i say this i am being a bit hyperbolic because i'm trying to use that that phrase which is like triggering and the left wants to say it. I do think there are a lot of really great cops. I think police are important. But if we're dealing with people destroying

small businesses, be it Antifa or police officers, I say they shouldn't be allowed. You know, there's an important distinction. There really, there's two there are two genres of policing in this country. One is the big city cops who work under an appointed chief.

The others are the deputies that work under constitutionally elected sheriffs. And you see an incredibly distinct difference in both. I worked for the former. The NYPD today is unrecognizable. So on September 11th, I was at the dinner. Rudy Giuliani and Bernie Kerik had done a dinner for about 200 people downtown for the 20th. I went. It's a great event.

And as I was leaving, there were some young rookie cops out on the street and I was chatting with them. And they were outside doing security. And I said to them, hey, it'll get better. And they said, no, it won't. Not here. And they know. And what they meant were a couple of things. The political climate in New York City is such that the police are handcuffed. But the real problem is that, and this is also policy inside the FBI right now, there is a litmus test for ideology in these agencies. The people that

are promoted up, take the NYPD, anything up to captain as a civil service test, anything above captain, inspector up to chief to deputy commissioner is an appointment. Now, you know full well that if a police captain were on this show talking with us and even semi-agreed, he's never getting that appointment in a place like New York. So the cops then become instruments of policy for radicals. Now they've got a choice. NYPD cops are making $40,000, $50,000 for their first few years. Live and check the check.

What do you do? Do you leave and find a new job? Well, the ones who can't stand it anymore do. They go to Nassau or Suffolk County on Long Island where the cops are paid two to three times more. And the community likes them and they leave everybody alone and everybody gets along or they believe in it they stay which creates an even worse environment in the department you see such a difference in the sheriff's office because like you say Tim your response time out here is probably 30 minutes minimum oh that would be ambitious that would be like I'm being as general right maybe an hour

and the the difference is in the cops themselves. They understand the need to be armed and self-reliant because their response time to you is an hour. That means backup for them is an hour away. If they pull a car over with four armed bad guys in it, they don't have any backup. In NYPD, we got on the radio 15 seconds, we had five cars there. Not so in a rural county, right? So they understand that a home a rural county right so they understand that a homeowner who's armed they understand the danger they're in out there alone it's geographical

it's ideological and this is a story that really needs to be told this is 10 shows but that's a problem and the fbi is now emulating these big city departments we're going to see more of it state police again are a byproduct of the governor and who the governor appoints to run that state police agency. I am not a fan of appointed commissioners, appointed chiefs anymore after what we've seen. I agree. Yeah. Elected elected sheriffs. And I'm a big fan of elected sheriffs. Yeah. In fact, I was showing your staff before we went on air. A friend of mine works, I won't say which one, for a sheriff's department in Florida where the sheriff is a dem, but he's like a blue dog Dem. He's a conservative old school Dem. He put out an email that said,

I'm not going to tell you to inject anything into your body. Here's a couple of news articles. I want you to be safe. You make your own decision. And that's our agency's policy. End of story. And this is a Democrat in Florida. Now, you're never going to hear about this guy in the mainstream media,

but he runs his agency the same way. And the community, the sheriff's been reelected four times as a Democrat in a pretty conservative county because of the way he polices his county and the way his deputies treat the constituency, which I think needs to be the norm around the country. Yeah, I think, you know, it's really, really funny when we hear from like Black Lives Matter talking about police brutality and racism. And then you get all of these uh you know conservatives saying it's not true the cops aren't racist and i'm just like new york is overly democrat yeah

the people who are running the departments are appointed as you stated are the political elites who control it democrats in new york new york i think they're left the democrats left the demo okay so even worse yeah okay so the left and the people they appoint then are ideologically aligned and chosen by them? Oh, of course. When a New York City mayor, for example, hires a new police commissioner, they bring in five, six, seven candidates and ultimately settle on the one that, A, the party line has their view of how to police. Really, it's who's going to be the sycophant who lets them run the department. All right, then. Are Democrats racist?

I believe Democrat. I believe today's liberal Democrat is the most racist human being in the history of the world. So it sounds to me like the entire political infrastructure, be it police or otherwise in New York, is probably racist. And I'm going to agree with Black Lives Matter on that one. The problem is they then loop in all the other jurisdictions and the suburban communities. And I think this is where – but, you know, AOC did say we want policing to look like it jurisdictions in the suburban communities. And I think this is where, but you know, AOC did say we want policing to look like it does in the suburbs.

So I'm like, okay, stop electing racists, following racist ideology, who then appoint racists, and maybe your police won't be systemically racist. Or just decentralize the police into smaller organizations,

into smaller neighborhoods, communities, boroughs, whatever it is, because the bigger the organization, the more room for corruption. Depends how you run it, though. I'll tell you, when Giuliani was it is, because the bigger the organization, the more room for corruption. Depends how you run it, though. I'll tell you, when Giuliani was there, forget that I know the guy, he ran the department in a way where it was the most proactive, the most constitutionally minded, and cops

had, I would say under Giuliani, and there are statistics to prove it, we had the lowest amount of complaints. And the reason was simple. When a cop was dirty, Rudy's policy was for him and his commissioner or his commissioner to personally go out and put the cuffs on that cop. Leadership said, we're not going to talk. We'll back you up to the wall if you do your job right. But if you're dirty, if you're abusive, your bosses, the ones that the public knows,

not some captain in a precinct, the mayor, the commissioner, we're coming to put the handcuffs on you. And let me tell you something. Rudy Giuliani and Bill Bratton, Howard Safer, then Bernie Kerik after him, pumped more money into the NYPD Internal Affairs Bureau than they did into any other bureau. The policy now in NYPD, which has stood, Ray Kelly did it as well, is if you're a talented cop and you get promoted to sergeant or lieutenant or detective, internal affairs is first crack at you. They get first crack at the better people.

They wanted to keep the job clean. Unfortunately, it's going in reverse now under de Blasio. There's a lot of affirmative action promotions, ideological promotions. The best people aren't being promoted anymore. And so I think you can have a large agency that runs well. It all comes down to who's ultimately calling the shots and it's always going to be the mayor right laurie lightfoot is running the chicago pd bill de blasio is running the nypd that's why you're seeing the problems you are that's a problem though because you're

always going to have leadership change so if the system is built that a faulty leader will destroy it 100 then it can't be large i think you can't it won't ian's right we need a monarchy i don't know how you would decentralize authority. I think decentralization is the way to go. I mean, even if you have a police department like in New York City based on boroughs, but you have a collective PAC where you protect each other if there is a major incident, and you work together and you practice and draw, I think that's more practical than having this large bureaucratic agencies.

Because I remember there was a lot of also police brutality incidences under the Giuliani administration. There were complaints, but there really weren't. I mean, I got the crap out of me during the Giuliani era by police officers. I didn't ask for it. I didn't deserve it. It happened. 40,000 cops. I don't have any evil intentions or vendetta or hurt feelings. It happened. I let it go. But there is something to say about huge, big forces and the room for corruption. And I think there's more corruption and more possibility of corruption than there is actually

possibility for good in big centralized organizations. The problem with decentralized is that they might start fighting amongst themselves, though, without cohesion. You take an incident like 9-11. Who has command? Manhattan.

Yeah, but it doesn't work that way because what if you're – you don't have – What would have changed? Here's why I say that. So, for example, your emergency services unit, which goes out there, your aviation unit, they're in Brooklyn. So Manhattan has command. So then who's ordering aviation and the big truck's over? So in a city like that, I don't disagree with you that you could examine it, but I can tell you I haven't worked there practically.

It just couldn't work. It couldn't work. You've got to have, unless you broke up each county, each borough into its own governed entity, which will never happen again. I think we've got to break up cities. Yeah, New York's too.

Well, I'm with you on that. Yeah. Yeah, cities are a problem. I think cities create this environment of a coddled mind where people are so far removed from the struggles of the real world, they become soft and terrified, and they're just these frail, little, uncalloused, pink, terrified individuals. Guns are bad. Guns are dumb. No one should have guns.

It's like when that guy tweeted 30 to 50 feral hogs and the left is all starts hooting and laughing and high-fiving each other. It's like, yo, that's a real thing that happens. Oh, but you live in a city where you effectively got a small army guarding you. So you don't got to worry about it. I get it. You know, I love when the left complains about hunting like the hog hunting, right? Move down to Florida.

Talk to these small family farms that when a when the hog come in and they destroy months of their livelihood, they root the vegetables, their domestic livestock is dead, these families lose $100,000, $150,000, $200,000 they didn't have. Or the iguanas in Florida and mainly the hogs in Texas. Florida, the hogs are bad too. We had three dogs, three stray dogs that would come on our property. What do you do? No, look, I love dogs. I don't want to hurt a dog. But what happens when three snar that would come on our property. What do you do? No, look, I love dogs.

I don't want to hurt a dog. But what happens when three snarling dogs come onto your property? Call a social worker. Oh, right. See, I was in the Redlands, right? You know where that is? Yeah, of course. And so there's no cops.

The cop has an hour response time. And these dogs are literally at the gate, and they're like trying to dig under, get their way in. They squeeze in. And then I'm like, okay, what do we do now we go inside we close the door we hope they leave so look i got a bb gun because i'm like i'm not about to get into you know firing wildly into the air or something at these dogs the bb gun scared him off but i talked to people who friends of mine who are like there's never any reason for anyone to own a gun guns are dumb and i'm like have you ever lived in the middle of nowhere no what if like a coyote is like snarling as you had taken the garbage out you

know what do you do i don't know i wanted to point out there 9-1-1 we had a bear attack we had a bear here yeah last weekend last weekend oh really uh so i go outside it wasn't an attack it was just bear showed up on the property i think and and tried ripping down the chicken coop oh yeah so we noticed that we we triple layered the chicken city that we have now, the old one. And we did two layers of this, you know, this thin wiry chicken wire going to the ground.

And then we did a thicker one that went to the ground and over. And I come out and it's completely ripped open. Metal. Like pulled apart and bent up. Did you get a picture? You tell me this now and you're keeping me in that RV?

Damn it. We got you. So anyway, so anyway. I got me this now and you're keeping me in that RV? Damn it. We got you. What are you talking about? So anyway, so anyway. I got a shotgun. I'll be fine. I didn't know what it was. And it's right next to, it's literally next to the house.

It's the front porch. The chicken coop is literally the front porch. You're right there. This is the window to the kitchen. And so we didn't know what it was. And then it turns out it was a bear trying to rip into our coop. Fortunately, it was early in the morning. Everybody was fine. And we didn't have to do anything but i'll tell you this i'm lucky that i didn't hear something and got because i'm not gonna let something kill my chicken so 5

a.m if i spot a bear you want me to wake you up 4 a.m okay yeah so you know we've talked to a lot of people about different strategies for dealing with bear everyone's got a different answer yeah um you know uh one guy told us rubber buckshot that's what i got rubber bullets um that go out the shotgun and then i have slugs so in case if a bear is attacking going to hurt someone and kill someone you use the slugs if they're just around you try to you try to use noise on a porch you try to use noise try to scare them away you i have bear mace. That doesn't work. Rubber bullets. The rubber bullets will work. Rubber bullets in the butt.

But I got to tell you, she needs something lethal just in case. In case. That's what I got to tell you. I'm telling you this right now. I got a KSG shotgun with a double barrel, and I could just switch lethal, non-lethal at the switch of it. That is really, really cool. I got the KSG-25.

KSG's cool. That one's fun. You're overcompensating for the KSG-25. I have a normal KSG, and theSG's cool. You're the compensating for the KSG25. I have a normal KSG, and the normal one does the job, okay, Tim? It's not the size of the barrel that matters. Okay, Luke. This bear was on our porch. That's close for comfort.

I'm not walking outside with rubber bullets. That's not happening. Look, I think we're all lucky that we just kind of let the bear came in the middle of the night, did its thing, did not break into the chicken coop. But I'm telling you, if we were there and we're watching a bear trying to rip the coop down literally at our front porch outside our kitchen window, I'm going out there with slugs. Yeah, that's an escalation, a deadly force at that point. I think because it's not – once they do that, they might just come into the house. Exactly. The bear was desperate to come this close to the property.

So this house is an island. It's surrounded by open grass and then parking lot. So we put the chicken coop in a space for now where animals don't go near it. We have foxes that run around. There's coyotes that run around. But they don't come on the parking lot. They're scared. For a bear to actually come on our property and go to our neighbors, this was a desperate bear. And those are dangerous. You go outside with a rubber bullet and you're like, I'm going to scare him off.

He's going to charge you. And then what? You go inside and close your little bullet and you're like, I'm going to scare him off, he's going to charge you. And then what? You go inside and close your little door, you little luck. He's going to break the door in. It's 400 pounds. That door is an afterthought. You should consider bears like crowbars. Long story short, I certainly hope you understand why guns are important and necessary.

Yeah. What I was saying is 9-1-1 is a number. That's all it is, a number. 9-1-1. The Second Amendment is your legal authority to wield a weapon, a firearm, to defend yourself. 911 is just a figment of your imagination, man. What did they say? When seconds matter, police are minutes away.

Look, and that's the truth. So look at those numbers, right? You take New York City, biggest department in the country, quick response time. You make a 911 call. You figure you're on the phone with the dispatcher. Best, best, most efficient, 45 seconds to a minute. They've now got to route that to a different dispatcher who routes it to a patrol car. Four minutes, three, four minutes.

I mean, your best case scenario is three, four minutes. The average time a deadly force incident, shooting incident, robbery, et robbery etc takes to go down is about 15 seconds yep yep so that four minutes is an attorney might as well be four and a half hours i mean i i got a crazy story i was some guy was trying to mug me in chicago and then quite literally as he's hassling me like three cops just appear out of nowhere and grab the guy and i was like that's a response time yeah you know but they were stalking the guy because they got reports. They followed him. Yeah, it was an anti-crime team.

I think what happened was one of the guys was not a beat cop. He was like wearing plain clothes. He had like a trench coat. Yeah, the anti-crime guys. They do the street crime, the robbery details. But I think what happened was some young women called in. They were being harassed. The beat cops then called in, hey, we got a guy.

And then the specialist comes out, they stalk him. And then as soon as he made a move, they just charged him. Well, New York did away with that. So one of the most effective... That's right, that's right. One of the most effective units

the NYPD ever had was street crime and precinct level anti-crime. They've all been eliminated. And they were responsible for dramatic reductions in robberies, shootings, homicides. The other thing is,

you know, one of the things that just infuriates me is when they say, well, stop and frisk is illegal. It's unconstitutional in New York. A judge ruled on that. People don't understand what happened there

and what a travesty it is. A very liberal judge, very liberal federal judge, a woman named Shira Scheindlin, deemed stop, question, and frisk is not just stop and frisk illegal, unconstitutional. Knowing that she was going to be overruled,

summarily by SCOTUS, because it's already a decided issue in Terry v. Ohio in 1964, she resigned her lifetime judgeship. Wow. That was her parting shot, her parting progressive gift. The only reason stop and frisk stands as, quote-unquote, illegal, which is not in new york is because the de blasio administration never appealed her decision because they agreed with it

had they it would have been immediately overturned i still think probable cause is important and that got away with probable cause for a lot of people including me i got routinely harassed during stop and frisk and it was uncomfortable police officer no probable cause puts you up against the wall puts your hands in your pants. Accuses you of all these crimes. Treats you like a criminal when you're not. And that happened a lot. It happened routinely.

We have probable cause for a reason. But it's not probable cause. Isn't the Supreme Court. This is important. The Supreme Court didn't determine probable cause was the standard for stop, question, and frisk. Reasonable suspicion is. So levels of suspicion. Mere suspicion is I'm driving by Tim's house. I know Tim. I know you guys are here, but I see somebody who looks out of place in the driveway. I'm a cop. Well, in the driveway,

I can roll back. Now I see the same guy. I know you guys are broadcasting up here. Now I see the same guy that I know is not from the area. He's got New Jersey plates. His car is down the block, but I see him looking in your windows, in the windows of cars. Now I've got reasonable suspicion to approach him, stop him, question him. I can frisk him, but I can't put my hands in his pockets. If I see something consistent with a weapon, I can pat down. If it feels like a weapon, I can remove it for safety. Not even contraband.

It has to be a weapon. So if I feel it feels like a crack vial, can I articulate it felt like ammo? Maybe. This is the same thing in Illinois. In Illinois, an officer is allowed to stop you, question you, and frisk you. It's federal. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So in Illinois, the cops will routinely, they'll see you and they'll be like, hey, stop.

They'll walk up to you. I'm being detained. You're being detained. Put your hands up against the wall. They're not allowed to put their hands in your pockets they'll feel and so there's a lot of cases where an officer like there was one case i remember it there's there's a lot of maybe this is just the exception at the rule where they were frisking someone and they felt something in his pocket and then they took it out and it turned out to be something wildly different i think then exclusionary rule kicked in they tried arguing i thought he had

drugs i felt that it felt like drugs it turned out to be something wildly different, I think then exclusionary rule kicked in. They tried arguing. I thought he had drugs. I felt that it felt like drugs. It turned out to be something totally different but still allowed them to investigate further. And they said, you can't go that far with it. Yeah, you can't with drugs. Now, what you can do is the example I just used. So if I pat you down, I find a gun.

Then I pat your pocket. I feel two cylindrical objects. I can reasonably articulate that might be additional ammunition. If I reach in and they're crack files, that's going to be a good search. Is reasonable suspicion like I don't like how that guy looked at me? No. It has to be a little bit more than that. I think he's stoned.

The way he looks at me looks like he's stoned. No. It has to be like mere suspicion. It has to be. Smell marijuana. That or even if you don't approach. It has to be. You're a cop on patrol and you work in an area with warehouses, industrial area. Nobody's ever in that area at 2 a.m.

And now you've got a guy tugging on the back door, checking the locks on a roll-down gate. That's really reasonable. So that is reasonable. I've had cops pull me over and then – I've told this story several times. I get pulled over and then I roll down the window. I put my wallet and my keys on the dash. I turn the light on. I put my hands on the wheel, and the cop walks up, and he goes, excuse me.

Oh, you're smoking marijuana? And I was like, what? People who watch show know I don't smoke. I don't drink. I go to tattoos, no piercings. He accused me. He said, out of the vehicle now. Opens the door.

Takes me out. Cuffs me. Calls for backup and says, we got driving under the influence. Then they start demanding I confess. The cop says, I know you're smoking. Confess. And I was like, I don't smoke. I'm wearing my uniform for American Airlines.

You can't smoke. I stink like jet fuel or something. You can't smoke if you work at an airport. They test you all the time. And I was like, I don't smoke. And he says, confess now and make it easy. And I said, I don't smoke if you work in an airport. They test you all the time. And I was like, I don't smoke. And he says, confess now and make it easy. And I said, I don't smoke. I don't know what you're talking about.

And the other cop walks over and he's got some kind of like, you know, nug or something. And he's like, what's this? And I was like, I don't know. And he goes, it was in your car. And I was like, did you put it there? And he goes, no, sir, it's yours. And I said, no, it isn't. I don't smoke.

I work for an airline. The other cop goes back and starts searching my car again. And the guy's behind me holding the cuffs in his hand. The other cop opens the glove box, finds my dad's firefighter emblem, walks out and goes, who's a firefighter? And I said, my dad. And he goes like this. The cop behind me on the cuffs goes, go home. Tim, we got pulled over allegedly for having the same car that was allegedly stolen in Chicago.

The state's plates were from Arizona. Do you remember that? Yeah, we got pulled over at gunpoint by CPD. The cop literally took the gun out and then put it right in my face. They were screaming at us. They walk up to the car. All these cars surround us. They throw a stolen car?

No. No, no, no. They lied. So I'll tell you the story, man. It's been a long time. It's a story. We're in Chicago. We went to go eat or something. So, so I'll tell you the story, man. It's been a long time. Yeah. It's a story. We're in Chicago. We're, we're, we went to go eat or something.

No, no. We were covering the protest. And then we went to go eat. And then we heard that someone was going to. And then we got a call that the place we were staying at had been raided by police. And so we needed to go see what was going on. On the way there, like 12 vehicles surround us. A CPD SUV, some, some, some blacked out SUVs. I take out the camera.

I'm live streaming. Cops literally turn out their firearms on me. They start banging, open the doors, open the doors. And we're like, okay. We open the doors, get out. They all detain us. They took my passport, my credit cards. They wrote down my credit card information.

They went through every bit of that vehicle. They were banging a hard drive, trying to pop things open, looking at all the cameras. And then eventually, a guy walks over, and he points to the guy who uncovers me, and he goes, sorry about that. Your vehicle matched the description. Then they leave. Now, here's the best part. We go back to the apartment, and I said, because I'm not an idiot, I don't know who went in the apartment or why. It's not our apartment, so no one is to go in that apartment. However, Luke and I have a following. We have a public presence. We're public figures. However, Luke and I have a following. We have a public presence. We're public figures.

So only Luke and I will go in to get people's belongings. Anything perishable will be thrown away. I don't care what it is or why. Take only your personal belongings. Some dude shows up, and he was staying at the apartment as well. And he says, you know, like, what's going on? And we tell him. And then he's like, can I get a ride with you guys?

Can I ride with you guys? And we were like, yes, but here's the rule. You can't go inside that building. We don't know what's going on and we tell him and then i he's like can i get a ride with you guys can i ride with you guys and we were like yes but here's the rule you can't go inside that building we don't know what's going on and only luke and i are clear to go in and deal with this and he goes uh okay i guess a few minutes later he says hey man i gotta go in there and get some stuff yeah what do you need to get and he's like i just need to go down and get a bag you're not getting it if i don't know what it is and it's anything in it is is consumable or perishable like it's thrown away doesn't go in our car and then he's like dude come on man like i i really gotta go in i'm like then you don't come with us if you do so he goes okay fine i won't so we go in the car i'm live streaming the whole time and we have people on

the live stream telling us that the police scanners are discussing us yep and i said i'm streaming i'm like no way that's not true i get a text message from a friend who says dude i'm listening to this it is happening stop giving away your location so we're like wow this is this is crazy we end up going to a safe location we crash out for the night everything calms down the next morning it turns out that someone who was uh facing criminal charges and then started dating a cop was instruct instructing one guy, the one guy who was desperate to go in, to pick up drugs. That she needed her drugs, and he had to go and get them for her.

And if we had let him go and get that bag and got pulled over, in Illinois, it's mandatory. Yeah, he'd be done. We have to go out of that specific city into another city just for safety because the cops were detailing every turn we were making on the police radios. I still remember that day because we were literally covering, doing journalism at the major

protest. We got a notification that our apartment that we were staying was raided. We were like, what the hell's going on here? The plates were out of state. So there's no way the same vehicle, the same description with the same out of state plates from Arizona. So the cops just lied the same vehicle, the same description, with the same out-of-state plates from Arizona. So the cops just lied. I was like,

what's the probable cause here? Let me say this. What's going on here? Why did you pull us over? Oh, yeah, yeah, they stole a car. I'm like, bull crap. What car? Give me the details here. What's your name? What's your badge number? None of that information was given at all. They didn't show you anything? Nothing. Well, I will say this, though, and look,

clearly, something else was going on there, but you really don't look at the plate, you look at the car because it's easy to go swap plates off the car. We're talking about a whole squad unit of people. We're talking about 15 cars coming in all each way. There was a detail looking at you guys. You guys were targeted there, that's clear.

Apparently, when we came back to the apartment, the alarms were going off, the door had been forced open. And I don't think they planted anything like that. But there was this individual who was facing very serious criminal charges. All of a sudden started dating a cop. People knew. And then this individual texted the guy who was trying to get in the car,

please go downstairs and get my medicine. I really need it. And we learned this the next day after we're like, what a crazy night. And our friend goes, yeah, man, isn't it crazy that so-and-so was trying to get me to pick up her drugs? And I was like, what? What? And he was like, yeah. And he showed me the text. It was like, come on.

I thought you were my friend. You have to do this. Yeah. Go do it right now. They put her into play. Prescription medicine that would get you felony charges for transferring and transporting. Oxy. And they put her in a play.

Exactly. Get somebody to pick up Oxy. So I had a number of these incidences. And I still know not to judge every police officer as everyone else. I know not to blanket everyone. But there are incidents of this, and that's why we need more transparency, more accountability, and I would say more civil rights as much as we can. Nobody's going to argue with civil rights.

NBC Chicago covered when we got pulled over. So this story, you can actually see it on Google. Before we were out, we were actually profiled by a local NBC news team on citywide television about the future of journalism. These young and intrepid live streaming

journalists here to cover the protests. So maybe they knew who we were for whatever reason there was a political motive against us and then they definitely played it right they definitely were looking and and fortunately for us the moment it happened one of our friends immediately called the nbc team and said he's like frantically now the funny thing is the nbc report thought i was him so they they quote me as what he was saying but it wasn't the case but it's yeah nbc they covered it they said something weird happened to the reporters we've been following.

Yeah, we should pull up that broadcast because there was like a local news broadcast. We should try to play it maybe in the after show. But there's a large number of incidences. May 20th, 2012. I found it right there. NBC Chicago. Yep. I don't know if you want to play it.

Daily was mayor then, right? I'm not sure about that. I didn't hear Chicago. Yep. I don't know if you want to play it. Daley was mayor then, right? I'm not sure about that. I don't know. But I've just seen so many police officers just use that line, probable cause, and just not really assert it in the proper way. So giving them even more leniency like was given in New York City is something that wasn't, in my opinion, the right thing. I understand fighting crime, and I don't believe in allowing crime to happen. I think what's happening right now in the cities is absolutely ridiculous. I mean, you look at what happened in Chicago with Kim Foxx protecting people that were caught on camera shooting.

This is absolutely ridiculous. I think crime is increasing. It's only going to increase from here as we have more selective political prosecution of individuals. They're going after pta meetings but we have chicago literally having more kids there die from gunshot wounds than all the kids nationally from from uh the sickness but that's the uh the prosecutor's offices as well exactly i mean it goes back to look at this all started soros's first successful experiment with the prosecutor was Larry Krasner in Philadelphia. And he is paying massive, massive dividends for that progressive agenda.

They don't prosecute anything. Except if you're a right-winger or except if you believe in freedom or if you believe in liberty. And look, I'm not adverse to decriminalizing the small stuff. There's no reason. Like I worked in a bad area. We were busy. We were a one-square-mile command that would turn out 12 cars some nights there's a lot of bad people out there a lot of bad people and but we weren't looking for weed in fact i'll never forget our orientation we had a lieutenant an old school guy he said you guys do right i'll back you up he said you bring a weed collar in here on a saturday night

when we're busy he said you're gonna walk a footpost in the rain for a week. Like they wanted to go after real crime back then. Now it's become worse, right? They're looking. Now it's selective enforcement and persecution. So you talk about that video in Chicago. That's mind blowing to me. Mind blowing to me. They've got, you know, typically she's saying, well, it's mutual combat.

We don't know who shot it, who. The way there's video of it. The way it's worked for decades is everybody gets arrested, and the lawyers and the prosecutors sort it out. You know, the police don't not arrest people that were engaged in a gunfight on a city street. Witnesses and police officers watching. Video. Like, literal video.

And smoking, literal video and smoking gun evidence. And nobody got arrested for this. Yeah. No. And then Lori Lightfoot gets attacked. Lori Lightfoot gets called, you know, she's mortified at Lori Lightfoot's inappropriate. At Kim Fox, yeah. No, no, no.

Kim Fox is mortified. Kim Fox said she's mortified at Lori Lightfoot because of her inappropriate actions for saying, hey, there's video here, guys. Lori Lightfoot, I mean, there's a lot to criticize her. She's the one that just said, hey, there's video here. That's all she said. She was a prosecutor herself, right? She was a federal prosecutor.

Look, I'll never agree with Lori Lightfoot on anything but this. And she's speaking through the lens of a former prosecutor. On this one, she's right. I mean, broken clocks are right twice a day, right? Yeah. But I think the violence is only going to get worse. It's already increasing dramatically from last year. I think this is all designed. I think a lot of police officers are deliberately handcuffed and put in positions that are extremely difficult to be in.

I wouldn't want to be in any of those positions. I wouldn't get out of the car if I were a cop today. Many of them do. Many of them don't. Unless I saw a child being abducted, a woman being raped, or somebody imminently being killed, an old person being beaten for their Social Security. Why the hell would I get out of the car? You saw two dudes fighting, arguing and yelling, pushing each other on the side of the street never in a million years well in some in some instances like the joel lizito incident which we talked about

previously before there's incidents of police officers just been like i'm not doing anything why would they you know there's there's a there's a couple of decisions right warren v dc and in the dc circuit and castle rock v gonzalez and the scotus the cops have no duty to protect you they don't have to take they may face departmental sanctions for it. They may lose their job. Yep. But they have no... They have immunity from civil liability.

They can't be prosecuted. Why would you do it today? Why would you take police action when it's a roll of the dice, whether or not you're going to be prosecuted, if you do everything right? Yeah, only if you really love your community. And even then, it's a risk.

But that would be the reason I would think that someone would do it. Well, you know, the smaller communities, it's a little easier because the cops know the residents. They grew up with them. They went to high school with them. You don't see the problems as much. But the large cities? I wouldn't do the job today, but... How do we solve for this? Because I was thinking

robot police, but then Tim makes good points like, eh, they don't have feelings. They can't judge. Like, guilty, guilty. So that's bad. can't judge, like, guilty, guilty, and so that's bad. But authoritarianism, I mean, law enforcement's kind of the old tried and true method. You have top-down strength. How do you, what do you think? Is it just going to be always...

Selection. I mean, look, first of all, you can't lower the standards, which they're doing, right? They're lowering the standards. The other piece of this is that it's like everything else. We were talking about guns. Why do you need a gun? There's an incredible ignorance in terms of practical necessity.

Departments don't spend the money they need to spend on tactical training. Oftentimes, incidents go sideways, and the cops wind up being heavy-handed or shooting out of fear. Everybody gets afraid. I don't care who you are. Delta operators, six operators, they get afraid. Everybody has a threshold for fear. You can train proper response through fear.

But the big city departments will spend money on sociology, CRT, BLM, Antifa sensitivity, and pull money back from high liability, meaning shooting, using non-lethal devices, takedowns. If you trained police officers, look, the average police officer shoots a couple of hundred rounds a year to qualify. Contrast that with your average SEAL Team 6 operator who shoots about 1,000 rounds a day. Now, why would a cop... What I'm saying is now you have people that say,

well, the police were involved in a shooting incident and they average 16 rounds per incident and they only have two hits. Well, sure. You're having them shoot paper targets and run scenarios, but it's not real stress. Yeah, Andrew Yang suggested every cop become a purple belt in jiu-jitsu, minimum. I mean, I

gotta tell you something. I don't agree with Yang often, but jiu-jitsu is probably one of the best in-service and many cops do it out-of-service trainings because it enables them to do a safe takedown where they don't have to escalate to non-lethals. I'm a big proponent of that, actually. Like, if someone were to reach for a cop, is their go-to

right now to draw the weapon? No, their go-to is still to, you train to escalate force up a level, so it's to use now to draw the weapon? No, their go-to is still to, you're trained to escalate force up a level, so it's to use physical force, potentially a baton, pepper spray. The problem becomes the cops are afraid.

Here's the other reason these things are escalating deadly force too quickly. Cops are terrified of being caught on camera doing anything, using any force. By the time they decide

to affect force, the bad guy is now emboldened. He thinks the cop's a punk who's not going to do anything. The situation rapidly escalates. You know, I used to, in the NYPD, on one of your forums, it's called the online booking sheet. You had a box at the top.

Now it's digital. Use force, yes or no. I always said yes. And one of my sergeants said to me, why are you saying yes? I said, look, why wouldn't I? I put my hand on him to cuff him. I put the cuffs on him.

I don't want this to go to court. And if I had to use a force that you taught me that I'm allowed to use, I check no and there blows the case. Too many guys are checking no, getting jammed up for it. You're allowed to use force in policing. Policing doesn't need to look nice.

It's called the force. But I definitely think cops need a lot more training. We were saying that. I think the high liability training, your firearms training, cops should be shooting a couple of thousand rounds a year and a couple of hundred. Learn to shoot, don't shoot scenarios. I know you guys are shooters. You know what I'm talking about.

Shoot, don't shoot. Run those simulations. Run them and rerun them and rerun them it's the only way repetition breeds retention and muscle memory but even just how to take someone down absolutely without you know hurting them or killing them or not even hurting them but you know what i mean like like as you said andrew yang suggested purple button jiu-jitsu for real cops just swinging wildly and crazy during street balls budgets budgets are a byproduct of this as well right the agencies don't want to spend the money to engage in those.

First of all, you've got to get somebody through an academy in about six months because you've got to remember this is all a numbers game. The reason that any big city department, even medium-sized departments, field an academy class and higher is to make up for attrition, right? They've got minimum staffing requirements, so you've got to make up for attrition. You've got to push those people through the academy. I wouldn't have a six-month police academy i mean ideally if it was longer if it was a year with six months spent on high liability you'd probably see far less high liability is like

when they're on the force but still a train no no high liability i mean uh training with your gun any any incident any any action they take that could result in high liability to the agency the use of the firearm a physical force, non-lethal. Have you ever heard or thought about what if a police officer had like a bio-coated gun so only if it feels that their handprint would fire? They're going to get killed. Oh, how so? Terrible.

I wouldn't do that. Yeah, I hear it's very dangerous. Because what happens if – Then the robots can turn it against us. The robots can turn it – robots are everywhere and they eat all people's mess. They can shut all those guns down. Yes, yes. No, what if they have to use...

What if your firearm jams, your partner's shot, you need to use your partner's gun to save both of your lives. It's just... That's a... What if it's a... Like, how many times

have you tried to open your phone with your thumbprint and it's like error, error, error? I guess the reason... There's some water there. The value I saw is if someone reaches for a police officer's weapon

and they don't care because they can't use it. There's other retention strategies that are far better, yeah. How about we go to Super Chats? See what the audience has to say. Smash that like button if you haven't already. Go to TimCast.com. Become a member for that special bonus episode coming up after the show.

And we'll pull up the article about me and Luke getting detained at gunpoint. And we'll show that and then talk about a bunch of other fun stuff. But again, smash that like button. Let's see what we got cs says already getting notified that we'll have to pay an extra 200 monthly for health insurance as unvaccinated people lucky the money's worthless yikes fair point one uh one individual whose name i won't read says 38 is too high mortimer duke says who are these idiotic 38 who actually find b Biden's presidency satisfactory? All right.

Crystal Mac 76 says, hi, y'all. Read TikTok. I have three sons aged 13, 18, 23. All of them agree that YouTube is what guys prefer and TikTok and Instagram are what girls prefer. We got banned on TikTok.

Yeah, I saw that. Yeah. It was the last video to get removed was one of our Alex Jones clips where he basically says one thing like for two seconds. That's totally irrelevant. And they took it down. And we don't know exactly what for because we were talking about, you know, economic policy or something.

I think that it might have been because of Phil's shirt. I don't think the CCP liked the Chinese, the communist symbol with the cross. Oh, that's what I came up with. China uncensored episodes probably got you guys hit. Oh, yeah. So we're banned. Whatever.

Ridiculous. A Magic Monkey says, Ian, bro, I heard you talking about fungus possibly being from space and stumbled upon a study about octopi likely being from space.

Check out Cause of Cambrian Explosion, Terrestrial or Cosmic. Interesting. Very cool. Very interesting. Bob the Monk says, Justin Trudeau will fire me on the 29th of October

because of the jabs. And for 26 years of public service, I refuse to comply. Well, hear, hear. Much respect. The Magic Monkey also says, I see Tim and prefer shim. I see Luke always puke.

I see Ian and I'm fleeing. I see lids. Lids is cool. Okay. Thanks. One of the things I saw in the comment section is, no Ian, we peeing. I love that one, yeah. I'll hold it in.

Brandizzle says, Luke, I'd love to do a painting for you. Please give me some ideas of what you like. Tim, I would also like to do something for you. Please give me an idea. I can send sample pics of previous work. I like the art of Stephen Gammill. I don't have a category, but firearms, dogs,

freedom, liberty. I got it. Alex Gray. Luke standing on the front of a tank holding two, I don't know. Barrett 50 BMGs. Levitating off the ground. Holding them rather successfully. Not struggling at all. Yep.

With an American bikini on. Oh my gosh. No. Yes. So in the game Fallout New Vegas, you can get a 50 BMG and you just run with it like it's a regular rifle and aim it like a regular weapon. Same with Call of Duty. I'm like, that's not realistic.

I would paint that picture of Luke on the side of my van. That's great, right? We went to the range and we brought out the Barrett. And for fun, we're like, we're all trying to lift it up and just aim it. And I could hold it for a second or two. I think Forrest, who was with us, actually was able to hold it really well and aim it. Yeah, because he's trained.

He holds the guns very interestingly. Yeah, he holds them. He's got a lot of this. Yeah, the forward grip. I took a buddy of mine. He was a SEAL teammate guy, clay shooting last weekend, and he had to adjust that hold because he was holding the shotgun that way. And he's not really easy to swing for the clay. But it's, yeah. There's new grip attachments that you literally could grab it just on its side that come on the side.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's pretty cool. I'm so excited for Domestan its side. Yeah. Come on. Yeah, yeah. This is pretty cool. I'm so excited for Domestan, man. Yeah. We're about a week out from finalizing the deal, and then we can immediately begin construction. We're looking at building a very large 10,000-square-foot facility for a lot of new culture, new shows, new expansion. And we're really, really excited. It's going to be a lot of fun.

It's cool. We're going to have a shooting range. We're going to have just all sorts of activities. We're going to do shows. So one of the things is we've been trying to do events here all year, and we're jammed up. And I even thought a few months ago, I was like, we did it. We got past the red tape. And then red tape appears.

And it's really, really simple. There's a lot more complexity to it. But having public events on private property is not something, especially considering, like, this is a big show. So there's concerns about even if we only invite 20 people or 30 people people will just show up knowing there's an event and then it's like you're not a venue you can't do this and we're like we got to figure something out so this new place we've we're getting sorted we can literally do what we want unrestricted access granted there's going to be security there's going to be rules we're going to put up streets and we're going to

put names and we're going to make like little areas like the town center and stuff. It'll be fun. There's going to be a shooting range and, I don't know, maybe a gun store. Yes, please. All right, now this is getting better. Yeah. A lot better. And a thousand-yard range.

Yeah, easily. We can do better. We can do more than a thousand. We can do easily more than a thousand. A mile, a mile, two miles. There are many of those. Yeah. That's a thousand yards.

Actually, I don't know if we can do a thousand. We should at least do a thousand a mile mile two miles there are many of those yeah that's a thousand yards we could actually i don't know if we can do a thousand it's it's it's a square do a thousand i don't know if we i'm we'll try we'll see i'll see it on our no i think you're i think i'm pretty sure we can easily do like i want to do some crazy long distance shooting i think we can easily yeah there's it's it's huge it's massive there's there's an area where we were looking down this cleared out area you couldn't see the end of the property. You could probably get your 1,000 yards in there. I think we can do more. I have a 416 Barrett. I want to push it some.

That's a nice one. Yeah. All right. Get a good scope. All right, let's see. Chance Jones says, I want to shout out Loza Alexander. He's a conservative rapper spreading culture. He just dropped a new song called Dear Soldiers.

It's dedicated to the 13 dead soldiers that died in the fall of Afghanistan. Get him on the show, Tim. Sounds cool. We'll take a look. Loza Alexander. Yeah, Tom McDonald. I wouldn't call him necessarily conservative, but certainly freedom, anti-woke. Yeah.

So there are a lot of people. Zuby. Is Zuby conservative? He is, right? He is. Oh, yeah. He actually is. Yeah.

His content seems to be. I mean, you know, he makes music. So there's culture here. You know, I really do think that the people who are true to their passions, like truly punk rock, are no longer aligned with whatever the left has become. Authoritarian is what it's become.

I mean, Ray Jansen. You can't be an authoritarian awesome artist. Yeah. That's true. Yep. Go establishment. Hey, right? That's entertaining. Huh. Oh, we got a lot of people saying, let's true. Yep. Go establishment. Hey, right? That's entertaining. Oh, we got a lot of people saying, let's go, Brandon. We got Sean Jock saying, let's go, Brandon. Let's go, Brandon. Christopher says, Tim, I've been a member since day one.

If you get banned, I'll double my monthly sub because you are the Kwisatz Haderach. That's from Dune. Yeah. Who's that? That's the young man what's his name uh he's the guy he's basically the the child of god oh snap the one high praise that's a happy thing to say am i right about that i hope i'm right about that up yeah miles gardner says tim can think about doing shorter youtube irls for key people and longer

members only segments with no chains? By the way, from last night, Nebraska exports beef. Iowa is known for corn. I think in terms of the conversation we have, for the most part, I think people assume that more, like, large portions of the conversation are censored. I see people say

like, you'll get the real opinions at TimCast.com. No, no, no, no. You get all of our genuine opinions on the show. We just, for one, are trying to move as much as we can off of YouTube. We do want to have a members-only space so that we can, you know, provide something of value to our members and create something unique. And there are conversations that just for, you know, to be safe, we'll put on YouTube. For instance, you know, we can talk about voter fraud and ivermectin on YouTube.

You know, I'm just like, I'm not going to play YouTube's game, so we'll do a lot of the other topics just on TimCast.com where we actually have journalists and writers and reporters, so.

The Kwisatz Haderach is the one who can be many places at once. The one who shortens the way. Nice. MK90 Tier 1 Asset says, Marines questioning

the top brass and the Biden admin are being slammed with njps and many are being denied religious exemptions for denying the covet vaccine and are looking for an administrative separation the military is purging non-stormtroopers yep that's true look at scheller somebody there's a meme of like uh millie and they're like he's five eight and obese he's not fighting any wars or anything like that that's true has but has he or has he just always been like political you know he's got a special forces tab he's got his ranger tab but who the hell i

mean the guy's not matching his own standards that he sets for his people he has a lot of medals on a lot of medals yeah north korea love medals i think a lot of medals indeed all right glacia says with anime outselling holly Hollywood and all the comic industry, why not have a focus on the promotion of That by the Right? P.S. Go watch Bungo Stray Dogs. I'm a big anime fan. I'm a big anime and manga fan.

And certainly, I think there's an opportunity there for sure. And games, video games. We're working on two video games. Oh, yeah. We have one video game that's in production and we're bringing a new video game developer.

We've never really talked about what the game's about, but it's hilarious. And so I think we'll have to just wait because we don't want to reveal too much. But it's a roguelike game, and we're going to be incorporating NFTs and doing a lot of really fun stuff. So that'll be cool,

and people will laugh and have a good time. All right. Aman Aman says, Yo, Project Veritas with another bombshell. Go check it out. Actual Pfizer employee with bombshell information and leaked emails. It is bad. Oh, yeah.

It's really bad. Another one. It's really bad. Another one today. Yeah, I hate being in the show. That's the way to do it, James. One-two punch. Is Project Veritas like the last true journalistic entity?

This was the first. This was impactful. They've revolutionized the industry. Big wins with these two. Big wins with these two videos. It's crazy to me that they're doing journalism. Yes. Like no one else.

Yeah, they're getting whistleblowers. They're getting leakers. This is what investigation is. They're doing stings. And the establishment media is like, the government press release today says, Joe Biden told us everything's okay. I was listening to Jen Psaki earlier, and the way she talks, she'll say something, something and she'll end it like this and then she'll say another thing and end it like this and then she'll make a statement like this that's her voice that's how it's something like this and like this it's like a robot i mean she's not a robot but it's like she's acting in this robotic

even why even even brandon he's more charismatic than that let's go brandon emily mower says we need 34 states to call an Article V convention of states. 15 have already passed legislation calling for it. Nine have passed it in one chamber, and 18 more have active legislation. So that's certainly more than enough. That's a lot of states. But what's the amendment we're going for?

I want sunset clauses on all current and future legislation. All current legislation. Term limits. Absolutely term limits. I think Ian just nailed it. Well, I think you need the sunset clauses, but I think you need to go for term limits as well. You can't ever have a McConnell again, a Feinstein again, a Pelosi again.

That right there is your problem. There's enough of us that are constantly in attention that we can have no term limits now. Sunset clauses on all laws. Then the NFA has got to go up for vote every five, ten years. That's right. That'd be great. Because you get a good pro-America constitutional Congress, and then when they're like, okay, the NFA is now up for vote again, they're all like, gone.

But we start with zero laws at first, and we'll see what happens. Yeah, but it's not just the nfa right you're gonna get you get to revote on those 86 the 86 update all the way back or you can go back to 34 stock bands all of it you can eradicate it all that's great that'd be great we only we only add laws we never take them away let's take them away yes azazel the fallen says i long said the right lost an entire generation with their opposition to gay marriage it was easy for the left to paint the right as evil using this subject and others not the only reason but a big one

well I can say that Jack Murphy wrote the book Democrat to Deplorable and he's often talked about how when the Republican Party stopped opposing gay marriage it allowed him to actually be like oh okay I can get on board with a lot of these ideals so that is a good point. I like Jack. He's a fascinating character.

When I see him, I see like a liberal DJ, but he's also got these conservative values. It's very fascinating. Eric Bernaldo says 20th Amendment could be all laws not explicitly in the Constitution of a 10-year sunset clause to be either rejected or reinstated every 10 years. That's a great idea.

It doesn't have to be 10. You could build a logarithmic scale or something, depending on the amount of people that are being affected by the law. So maybe you could come to a vote a little earlier, a little later. You could have some fun with it. Hondo says, I'd love to hear Luke's take on Nevada's executive order AB-286 and making tons of gun owners felons and their loose definition of unfinished. Any gun laws are unconstitutional. Are you familiar with this one in Nevada?

Nope. Doesn't matter. I wonder if this is the 80% lowers. If it's a law against it, it's unconstitutional or illegal. A lot of people are saying sunset laws. Sunset clauses in the heart of laws. That's a good sign. Yeah. That's a rallying cry.

Scope clauses defining limits of laws to reel in prosecutors. Ooh. M. Sheba says, so did Luke ever ask about his steaks? What about my steaks? I got to know. Okay, so there's a myth, and I want to see if this is real. I want to get to the bottom of this. Apparently, Andreas ate 50 of your steaks.

Yes. Wait, how many steaks did he actually eat? There was individual servings of them. 50. Around 50. I think it was around that number. But he ate like one. It was high. It was crazy. He ate many steaks did he actually eat? There was individual servings of them. 50. Around 50. I think it was around that number. But he ate like one. It was high.

It was crazy. He had many steaks in one day. This is the story. Yes. This is how the myth goes. Yes. I can't forgive him. All right.

Well, you heard it here first. It was funny. You don't take a man's steak away. No, you don't. That's war. I mean, he's lucky he got away with that. I think he really ate like 10 steaks in one day. Yeah.

Luke walks upstairs and he's like, hey, did you guys see my steaks? And we were like, no, where are they? And he's like, I have a bunch. I had like 10. They're missing. And I was like, okay, well, someone must have moved them because there's no way someone ate them. Yeah. Yeah, Andreas ate them all.

There's a way. If you want Andreas in. He's like a star seed. All right. Let's read some more. Matt McMullen says, fellow Illinois boy here, just found out I have a drug test next week and I have not been studying. When does recreational legalization catch up with modern employment? FSP is looking real appealing now.

Yeah, I mean, everything happens for a reason. You know, a lot of people are getting fired for a lot of ridiculous reasons right now. It's a perfect opportunity to make a change in your life and to check out beautiful places like Florida, New Hampshire, West Virginia, and other states that provide you a lot of sovereignty, a lot of freedom, a lot of liberty, and a lot of opportunities. A lot of jobs opening up as well. Why do jobs drug test?

Obviously, if you're a truck driver or a pilot, I get. But if you're working at a Starbucks or a McDonald's, really? They're legal departments. Lawyers tend to botch everything. I think we should drug test members of Congress. Yes. Amen.

You've got to kind of be specific with drug. What a stupid word. Caffeine's a drug. Cocaine's a drug. Cocaine's a drug. Sugar's a drug. I want to know if they're doing caffeine. I want to know if they're doing the marijuana.

And I want to know if they're doing the crack cocaine. Like if someone's on crystal meth, that's way more dangerous than someone stoned on weed. I'll bet you there's a whole bunch of crackheads in Congress. That is absolutely true. It wouldn't shock me. Parting with Hunter Biden. I mean, yeah. There's functional crackheads out there that could pull it together.

I've seen a lot of them. I've seen it all. Look at Hunter Biden. He became a successful board member of an energy company in Ukraine. And are we going to see some Hunter Biden works on the walls here like george washington perpetually stoned on the one dollar bill let's be honest is that it okay oh yeah didn't the founding fathers do like do like the whole country was founded on on um on hemp oh yeah they uh snuff they had their own they were they were they were they were ben franklin yeah jefferson smoked pot all the time

didn't he? Likely. I don't know. To be honest, he was like a polymath. He could do all sorts of stuff, so I would imagine THC was part of that. Maybe. All right. Roberto Lara says, surely the tax the rich people should wake up after seeing this platinum coin worth trillions just getting printed.

Or trillion. Sorry. Planning to be printed to pay off debt. And what do you do? They said they would mint the coin and then deposit it at the Federal Reserve. The feds would be like,

wow, a trillion dollars. Thank you. This is valuable. Someone could buy it. What do you do with this? Could you imagine? There's an old comment from 2013 about Obama ordering the minting

to bypass the Republicans. And then it's like when they go to deposit at the Fed, one's missing because they did two of them. And then it's Joe when they go to put deposit at the Fed, one's missing because they did two of them. And then it's Joe Biden with a bunch of women and they're like,

sir, I can't break a trillion dollar coin. And he's like, then bring more wings. I love it. But yeah, the coin would literally be worth just the platinum.

Like no one's going to look at a trillion dollar coin and be like, that's legitimate. They've been discussing this since 2011. It's so moronic. I mean, you get a $20 gold piece.

It's not worth $20 with the value of the gold. Right, exactly. Mint something and make believe it's magically worth a trillion dollars. That's some money. That's what I love about those gold coins, where they're like, it's like a golden dollar. And I'm like, no, that's like, what, $1,000. A couple of grand. Yeah.

Listen, if you write $1 trillion on a piece of paper in front of you, it has as much value as that coin against $1 trillion. That's how the U.S. economy works. I just want to know, I forget who tweeted it today. It was a great tweet. They said, is the IRS going to disclose the bank transactions of members of Congress? That's a great idea. Love it. Can we audit the Federal Reserve?

Oh, that's a good idea. Interesting. Add that to the list of amendments we're going to get. Audit Hunter Buck. Every five idea. That'd be interesting. Add that to the list of amendments we're going to get. Yeah. Audit Hunter. Every five years. Yeah. All right. Little Tales Farm says,

we moved two months ago, got 16 acres, homesteading, raising chickens, goats, and veggies now. I'm networking my new community now and plan to run for local office,

inspire change on the grassroots level. That is amazing. That's how you do it. Love to hear it. And of course, we shouted out Little Tales Farms because they were the ones who built their own version of a chicken city.

Yes. And they posted this video where the chickens are like walking out, but then it pans to a window with like a screen and it's like chicken just looking out the window and it's hilarious. I love it. Chickens. Chickens are so dumb, man. Aw, man.

Window chicken. We have these babies. We've got eight babies. Trying to just like get them to know where food is or to understand the concept of like how to move. So we have these little houses where there's a first floor which is outside and a top floor which goes inside. And they don't understand the concept of going inside. So they just sit there. You have to pick them up and like put them in.

And then they freak out. And then you've got to put them all in there and then close it and let them just sit in there for a minute to understand inside. We put their food in there and their babies. So they immediately run out and then stand down and then close it and let them just sit in there for a minute to understand inside you put your we put their food in there and their babies so they immediately run out and then stand down and then don't eat and then later when i walk out and saw they weren't eating and i put them in there they freak out and start eating like crazy and i'm like guys your food is here this come from chickens you're not smart no they're not no one said they were all right mitch divine says amazing guest to listen to after surgery hate to ask but need some help with bills used all my savings and still oh plus normal bills and can't work go fund me help me pay my surgery bills and insurance Good luck. No joke.

I'm getting concerned because I've been getting messages from people. Can you help me? And I'm like, I can try and build a system. I can build a system that will allow us to help ourselves a little easier. But it's coming to a time where people are going to be begging for help. They are. It's happening more and more and more and more. Most GoFundMes are medical GoFundMes.

That's so messed up. Yeah, that's not right. So messed up. Jacob Dobbinspeck says, Luke said, I got a shotgun. It's fine. I love the show. Best show. Reformed Garbage says, want to get rid of a bear?

Get a Smith and wesson 460 xvr with an 8 and 3 quarters inch barrel no more bear tom mcdonald rocks named my son after him wow

wow impressive does tom know that tom's the best name make 1984 fiction again says it's a little frustrating hearing about graphene and opals

when we're literally on the verge of living in a reenactment of the walking dead if we are going to reinvigorate our industry, as we've been talking about, it's going to have to be by producing graphene. Hey, look, when the two states, when the two countries fracture from the U.S. and there's like the United States of America and then there's the American United States, one of

them is going to have to start making graphene, like, you know, build your industry up. Yep. P.R.C.E. Five says, Mr. Cardillo, when you refer to the Democrat sheriff who has been reelected four times in a red county, you aren't talking about our lord and savior, Grady Judd, right? No. Please don't tell me my sheriff is a Democrat. Absolutely not, Grady. With Grady, what you see is what you get.

That's always good. Megan Cole says, where is the EO for the employer vaccine mandate? Last I heard, it hasn't been filed in the National Registry, yet corporations are enforcing it. This is a really funny thing. If you're the CEO of a company, I think you'll still technically, as an employee, fall under their mandate. But if you're just like a shareholder or potentially a board member or whatever, a non-salary position where you still have voting power and profits, you've got no mandates. And then when you want to travel, you just pull up your private plane. And if you're rich enough, you don't need a passport either.

You can literally go to whatever country you want and they'll let you in because you're rich. That's the way the world's going. Think about what this means. If it goes the way, you know, Ian mentioned Klaus Schwab wants corporate governance. So there's like a news article, I think it was Bloomberg or whatever, that said Facebook and was it Google should be in the UN like countries. These are authoritarian dictatorships, these companies.

It'll just be a whole bunch of despots clawing their way to the top for power. Yeah, I just watched a Klaus Schwab video last night. He was giving a speech on stage. I'm about to pull it up. Try this one out. COVID-19 and the fourth industrial revolution. Klaus Schwab. It's from like four months ago.

Very disturbing. He's talking from like a video ago. I think I saw that. Very disturbing. He's talking from like a video chat on a big screen on the wall, like that 1984 thing, that commercial where they throw the weights at the screen. It was like an Apple commercial. Gino Benedetto says, I emailed Rick Scott and Marco Rubio. Both support red flag laws. Primary, these sacks of garbage. Yeah, no red flag laws.

Those are bad. Too many people support red flag laws. Too, these sacks of garbage. Yeah, no red flag laws. Those are bad. Too many people support red flag laws. Too many on the right do. And there's no due process whatsoever. It's not a good compromise. Trash Panda says, there's a video of a grizzly bear

kicking in a front door and entering the house. City leftists do not understand rural areas. I mean suburban, for that matter. When we're driving on the road, there's deer everywhere. Oh, yeah.

And we've had people hit deer. One jumped across us. We pulled in here tonight. Yeah. Deer everywhere. Oh, yeah. And we've had people hit deer. One jumped across us. We pulled in here tonight. Yeah. Deer everywhere. Yeah, they're always eating our fruits. How dare they? And pooping on a lawn and doing deer stuff without any regard for the no trespassing signs.

Very rude. Matthew Wood says, why did no one correct Luke last night when he repeatedly called Jimmy Kimmel Jimmy Kimble? Or does he just talk funny? I love all of you and truly appreciate your show. Peace and love to you all. Yeah, Luke. Don't be discriminating against me. Kimble. I love it.

Cornelius Buttknuckle says, Tim, get Ted Nugent on. You're big enough. You got enough pull. Do it on a Friday and then Saturday you could have all the two-way wet dream of a day on the range shooting 50Ks with Ted Nugent and Alex Jones. Oh, absolutely. I would love to have Ted on.

I was talking to somebody about bringing him on, somebody else who had him on their show. I need to follow up with that person. His comments for people who took the vaccine were pretty interesting. I thought it was one of the best interviews I've ever seen. That was just awesome. That's a smart dude. I like him. I would ever seen. That was just awesome. That's a smart dude. I like him. I would be stoked.

We're building out... We've got to build up the main new studio, which we've actually... This studio is good, but a lot of people don't understand the kind of janky setup we have. We just took a bunch of small desks and then bolted them together. You don't really see the desks. But the new... And Ian's

desk is not synced, and Lydia's got a weird desk. I'm in a parking lot with Smokey the Bear. The new studio we're putting together is one big table with a bunch of really awesome chairs so everyone will be more in a normal balanced lighting so I won't look like a ghost. Yeah, the light, the LEDs go all

the way around the ceiling. It's amazing. And then we're also working on our mobile studio so that we can go to Nashville and then Austin. Oh, that's exciting. And then Florida and then Mexico. And then we're also working on our mobile studio so that we can go to Nashville and then Austin. Oh, that's exciting. And then Florida and then Mexico. Heck, yeah. And then probably, you know, maybe somewhere in Georgia.

I don't know. Yeah. No, maybe we'll have to go straight to Florida. It depends on if we can make that trip because we have to do it Saturday and Sunday. So we probably have enough time, you know, if we just drive nonstop. We could probably stop in Jekyll Island. That would be an interesting stop. That'd be fun.

Yeah, that'd be pretty interesting. Florida would be great, stop. That would be fun. That would be pretty interesting. Florida would be great, too. Texas would be a whole lot of fun. Gators. A lot of people are saying you've got to go and check out Project Veritas because they've got a big, big, big release. And, oh, yeah, they are not kidding. Absolutely not. All right.

Let's see. Normative says, so how do you buy a parcel near Fredomistan? The panhandle of West Virginia, and then you're close enough. So where we are now, we're basically in the panhandle of West Virginia and the tri-state. So you can hit Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia in 30 seconds of each other. DMV. And there's a great little barbecue joint that when you're crossing through Virginia, it's right there.

And then people go kayaking and there's the adventure center and the brewery and all that stuff. And then we're, you know, like there's Charlestown. So if you're in that area, you know, you're in the area. Easy enough, right?

All right. Blaze Doll says, ask John Cardillo if he has any ghost stories. I actually do. What? Really? I do. You guys want to hear a cool one?

Tell us in your deepest, darkest, scariest voice. It's a true story, actually. So, I'm a rookie cop. I'm living in the second oldest building on 23rd Street in New York. It's a true story. I come home one night, and it was a four-story walk-up above a diner. And I hear footsteps in the hallway. Didn't think much of it.

Thought it was the guys from the diner until my apartment was at the top on the fourth floor. And the only thing left was the roof door that had an alarm. Figured it was guys from the diner just bringing stuff to the roof in their storage. The people that own the diner own the building. Needless to say, when I got upstairs, nobody there. So it happens a couple of times after that. So I tell the guy who owns the diner, the son, and he starts laughing.

And he says, well, I wanted to give you a key to the roof door anyway. It's good to have a cop in the building. So now it happens again. I go out the door. There's nobody there. As I'm coming down the stairs to tell this guy, an old woman, she was in her 80s. Her name was Jean.

I won't forget this. We're going back to the late 1990s. She says to me, oh, don't worry about it. They've been here longer than us. I said, who? So it's a true story. So a couple of, about a week later, two of my squad mates, girl I'm still very, very good friends with,

and a guy that unfortunately died. Natural cause is just young. We had, we all worked in the Bronx. We had court in Manhattan the next day. I lived down on 23rd so they stayed with me and I kid you not I opened the door and all three of us saw this dark pitch black thing move across the living room we I thought it was somebody who had broken in because I had a fire escape to my left in the kitchen and there was another one in the bedroom window that it was moving toward i draw my gun run into the guest room thinking okay i'm crazy there's nothing there only i saw i turn around they had drawn their guns because they saw it as well and then weird stuff started to happen in that apartment

and then i eventually moved out and here's the here's the kicker told the guy that owned the diner and when i moved i had moved out i just found a better place it was a duplex front of mine's brother owned it was real cool place i had it expensively and uh about i don't know about a month later when they were renovating the place they called me back and they said hey you got to see this and when they had stripped the walls there were upside down crosses and pentagrams on the bare sheet rock that had been painted over over the years. Yeah. It was creepy, man. It was really creepy. I had a hard time sleeping after that for a couple of nights.

Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. That's mine. That's a good one. Kind of reminds me of Ghostbusters, how like that guy that built the building, you know? Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. So that was creepy. Now I might have some trouble sleeping at night. Oh, great. That was a good story, man. All right. We'll just read a couple more here.

All right. let's see carrie harper says i have children and if you give into the mandates you're a terrible parent your children are looking up to you show them how strong you are correct i agree yep and outside of that i think complying has made everything worse because the people you know what i think it is there was someone mentioning this paradox where people go along with something assuming everyone else wants to go along with it when no one really does. And so I think what's happening is no politician wants to take responsibility. Other politicians want to exploit the crisis.

Well, you get a never-ending death spiral of destruction of the economy because no one is strong enough to just say, stop it. That's exactly. And I think part of the reason that so many push the vaccine and do it if you want to do it. I don't know.

Not my place to tell you what to do is because they feel guilty. They took it and they want other people. They want other people to join them because now they're a little concerned whether there's that's warranted or not. I don't know. But I that's my gut. I've been getting that feeling, too. Yeah, that's just the way I feel about this. All right.
