Donald Trump has called Tim Waltz a he doubled down on it. He said he genuinely thinks there's something wrong with that guy and it's funny and everyone's talking about it so that's why we're leading with it. That being said, there's real news came out of Minnesota and more just broke right before when live. Apparently they're issuing illegal CDLs to non domiciled individuals. There is a massive fraud scheme that is being exposed. Hundreds of millions if not billion or billions of dollars stolen and they're saying it's coming from the Somali community and this is actually rather shocking. So it's a major scandal developing and of course because this enters the news, Donald Trump then says Tim Waltz is a retard. And then they get mad and they're like, how dare you say naughty words? Interestingly, however, a new study was done. It's massive. It's going massively viral. It's an internal study from Democrats where they find that nobody trusts them on any important issues. And in the past 12 years, they shifted away from all of the core issues of the working class in this country towards identity issues for fringe groups. I don't know how they, they fare so well in how they'll fare well in the midterms, though. The prediction markets say they're going to win. It's, it's kind of shocking data. So we'll, we'll talk about that as well. And of course, we have, I guess we're going to war in Venezuela. We'll see. You got Hegseth being accused of war crimes. We'll talk about that. And then over the break, there was a video, something I had done on these billboards that have been popping up for the past several months, calling on the military to defy the chain of command and effectively sowing discord and disloyalty in the military, which is an overt crime under 18 USC 2387. The website actually instructs our servicemen and women on how to use encrypted communications. I believe it's very obvious the reason they're doing this is so that these servicemen and women, when they communicate, there's an expectation they're going to be incriminating themselves breaking the law, or the individuals communicating with them may be breaking the law. This is shocking. So as Mark Kelly and the rest of these Democrats doubled down on claiming Trump's. They're not, they're not going so far saying he's actually doing illegal things. They're saying, I think they should question these. And Mark Kelly actually said that any, any service man or woman can just tell if they're illegal or not. So, yeah, this is getting crazy. We'll talk about that and a whole lot more before we get started. We got some great sponsors for you. First we got Venice. AI my friends, Sam Altman said ChatGPT will get to know you over your life.

Hello.
A
How are you?
C
I'm good. I'm good and happy to be here.
A
It's great to have you. Who are you? What do you do?
C
I am an independent journalist and videographer and I have been covering the far left in Portland and the Pacific Northwest since 2017. Most recently, I've been down at ICE since June covering all of the insurrection type activities that have been taking place there.
A
Ah, okay. So when we talk about civil war, you will be able to inform us on what's going on?
C
I will. I can tell you what's happening on the ground, probably where it's going to start.
A
All right.
E
On.
A
Well, it should be fun. Thanks for hanging out. We got Shane hanging out.
F
What's up, guys? I am Shane Cashman, host of Inverter World Live. Tonight we're going to talk about some good news. The great Pacific Garbage patch has become a beautiful home for lots of worms. So I just figured I want to share some good news for once and looking forward to that when we're taking phone calls all night long. So from about 10:30 to midnight, our phone lines will be open. Give us a call. What's up? A lot.
E
What's up, Shane? Good evening, everybody. I am A Lot Eliyahu, White House correspondent here at Tim Cast.
A
Phil hello, everybody.
G
My name is Phil Labonte. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band all that Remains. I'm an anti communist and a counter revolutionary. Let's get into it.
A
Here we go, my friends. We're gonna start with this big story that you may have seen over the brightness from the New York Times. How fraud swamped Minnesota's social services system on Tim Waltz's watch. Prosecutors say members of the Somali diaspora, a group with growing political power, were largely responsible. President Trump has drawn national attention to the scandal amid his crackdown in immigration. They say federal prosecutors charged dozens of people with felonies, accusing them of stealing hundreds of millions of dollars from a government program meant to keep children fed during the COVID 19 pandemic. At first, many in the state saw the case as a one off abuse during a health emergency. But as new schemes targeting the state's generous safety net programs came to light, state and federal officials began to grapple with a jarring reality. And then we had this drop from Secretary Sean Duffy, who says just One day after 400 brave employees from Minnesota DHS exposed massive fraud, US DOT has discovered that 1/3 of non domiciled CDLs were issued illegally. In the state, Minnesota, you're on notice. You have 30 days to fix this or lose $30 million in federal funding. A massive scandal. And it's interesting we're hearing these. These accusations that the Somali diaspora was stealing hundreds of millions of dollars. Well, I am shocked, I tell you, shocked, to find that people who aren't from here, who don't care about our traditions, who are here, often many of them illegally or through chain migration, would steal money from hardworking Americans and steal the inheritance of the new. Of the younger generations. I am. I am shocked. Okay. Obviously not really. I've been having conversations with a lot of people about multiculturalism, about the state of the economy and why it's going on. And I put up a video today at 2pm about brutalism and how everything got so ugly, which is really interesting. But I think the main issue that we are seeing at the thinnest layer of, or I should say, what is a large root cause of all the conflict and crisis. Multiculturalism and the fracturing of American culture in general among other American groups. But the easiest way to put it is this. Why? The question posed by this guy was really, really great. His name is Sheehan Quirk. He said, why is it that you have these beautiful lampposts near the River Thames and then just, you know, a block away, they're just black boring sticks? And he gives his reasons. But my reason is that when you have traditions and you have a group of people who all agree this is beautiful, let's do this. Things get done. But let's say you bring in 50% Somali migrants. They're gonna say, we don't want that. We want Somali tradition. So what happens? The lowest common denominator in this, what we're seeing with Minnesota and what they were doing is these people are not Americans. They don't care about America. Ilhan Omar said she was a congressional representative for Somalia. And so these people are looking at it like, I'm here for myself and my community and you aren't. A viral post recently, which is probably very old, I might add, viral post, been going around where it was someone claiming that they were a Chinese national in the US on a student visa, and they racked up $100,000 in credit card debt and then returned back to China. And they said, for the glory of China, I have taken as much as I can from the American empire.
C
They.
A
They'll never see a penny back. They were encouraging Chinese students, who Trump is gonna give these visas to, to come rack up massive debt purchasing products on credit cards and then leave with it all. So they retain that wealth in China where they can never be prosecuted and no suits can be served. This is what we're seeing as unfortunately the Democrats, the Biden administration let in ten plus million non citizens and American culture is falling apart.
F
People used to come here to be a part of America and to promote being American, become American. And now people come here to leech off the system and they see stuff like this. It's like turning the whole country into a game show, you know, into like winning a lottery and just leeching off of it. And it's terrible. It's part of the controlled collapse that's been going on for the past few decades of this country.
G
Do you think that people like this should be deported? And the reason I ask is because obviously they, they are. There's indictments for the people that are accused. This like if they're found guilty, should they be sent back to Somalia? Yeah, I think so.
F
Yeah, of course.
G
I think that, that you know my position on, on people that are here illegally and people that are here legally. Like if you are not here for the betterment of the United States, you should imagine you're a business owner relying on a dozen different software programs.

B R I K.com couldn't be here. There was a a video going around from the whatever podcast of a girl from Colombia and it's got a, you know, millions of views or whatever. And the guy asked her, you know, if there was a conflict between Colombia and the United States, who would you side with? And she's a. She's a citizen. She took the oath and, and became an American citizen. And she said, colombia, people that come here and that were in the riots earlier this year, if they were waving Mexican flags, if they're a new citizen, if they, they came here and immigrated here and they're out there waving American flags, strip them of their citizenship and send them away. The woman from Colombia, strip her of her citizenship and send her back.
A
Yes.
G
You are not here because you care about the United States and the fundamental principles that the United States is founded on.
A
I go further than that. If you are not a benefit to this country, get out the. The idea that we owe other people from other countries to come here. It's the stupidest thing ever. You come here because we are extending a grace to you. That's it.
C
I married an immigrant and went through the process with, with him. This was years ago, back in the late 90s. And we had to sign a statement saying that we would not take any sort of federal dollars or any programs. And we had to have a sponsor. I was the sponsor and my parents were the sponsor, saying that he would never in any way depend on any kind of welfare or federal dollars. And I believe that's still the loss. I don't understand. And I see this in, in Oregon as well. There's just a lot of grift of these systems.
A
It's. I think we are being grifted every facet this is the sinking of the American ship. Everyone everywhere is trying to rip off as much as they can. Even the politicians. Look, Zoran Mamdani gets elected by just lying. He said, I'm gonna do things. He can't even do these things. I'm gonna make the buses faster. You can't. You don't have the money to do it. You have no authority. I'm gonna be the buses free. You don't have the authority to do that. The mayor doesn't do that. We've seen this with our federal level politicians too. One of the most annoying things is when you'll see someone running for congress and they'll be like, if you vote for me, I'll clean up this town. No, you won't. You're gonna go vote on federal funding and budgets representing your city. It's the local reps who are gonna clean up this town. It's your mayor. Is gonna clean up the town. But they all run on the pure ignorance and apathy of the American people. And then you end up with enclaves like in Minnesota with Ilhan Omar, that are basically just saying to themselves, how can we rip as much value from these morons as possible? That's what they're doing. That's what the story is.
E
I think this is indicative of the failure of the project of assimilation in our country is. And I think there's a serious reck. Americans who feel as though immigrants are coming to this country, even sometimes legally, but particularly illegally. And when they went through the process and did things the right way, it feels like it's a spit in the face to them. I think Stephen Miller put it quite succinctly when he, quote, tweeted something in regard to the Afghan refugee who murdered one West Virginia National Guard and seriously wounded another in the past Wednesday, I believe it was. But Stephen Miller tweeted out, this is a great lie of mass migration. You are not just importing individuals, you are importing societies. No magic transformation occurs when failed states cross borders at scale. Migrants and their descendants recreate the conditions and terrors of their broken homelands. That is to say that if you import the third world, you become the third world. And there's a serious reckoning in our country right now in realizing that.
G
Yeah, I mean, the people are not just cogs. Right. Like, the people that are in the United States that do jobs here. They're not replaceable with just another person. That's part of the reason why we should end all H1B visas. We don't need to have people coming in just to fill, you know, positions because some big corporation can. Can pay them less or what have you. The people that are here, the Americans that are here are America and they're connected to this place. We don't have magic dirt. Right. Like, you don't come to the United States and set foot on the American soil and automatically become a Jeffersonian Democrat. You know, that's just, that's. That's imagined.
A
Additionally, bringing Jeffersonian democrat worldview to Africa didn't do anything either.
G
Yeah.
A
Liberia didn't work.
G
Nope. It didn't work in Iraq. And that was. That's the most, most glaring example of the argument that was made. If we go into Iraq, we're going to be treated, treated as liberators, and they'll automatically adopt our way of life. They want democracy, etc. And then you had, you know, a decade of war and a mess in that country, and A couple million people died. It doesn't work. And to try it here is only to the detriment of the American people.
F
The other problem is there's a large population in this country that are citizens that are. Have no loyalty to this country and actually see this as a. As a good. Yeah, they care more about other countries, other foreigners than do about our own citizens.
E
Well, this is a major constituency of the Democrat party, particularly in Minnesota. So they have to virtue signal to them. They have to grease up their hands per se to get their votes and to get their support, because otherwise, who knows, they might flip.
A
You know, I just gotta get as conspiratorial as I can on all of this stuff. And I'm just. I'm not convinced that. I would say part of me thinks this is all a distraction, from the smallest to the biggest. But distraction maybe isn't the right word. Intentional failure. Or if I want to get away from the conspiratorial, I would say it's emergent failure. The system is doomed to collapse. The technologies that we have built, the masturbatory video games and only fans industry, and all of this has created humans who are incapable of sustaining themselves. At the same time, the technological advancement has gotten to the point where AI is basically in the background as a bigger priority. And the end result of all of this. I'm just thinking about where do we go as everything breaks down and the conversation over Multiculturalism brings us right to the conversation of AI, where everybody starts watching their own mini universes of content. No one shares ideas anymore. The stories we tell each other and our society tells to its children is the culture that we build. So when you have five TV networks and they're all telling the same stories and everyone hears those stories, their worldview is built upon those stories. Now you've just got people picking and choosing whatever garbage they want. Influencers, you know, young people desperate to try and find a way to make any kind of money, thinking that's their path. And we're drifting towards. I like granular culturalism, where multiculturalism is an understatement. Let's just call it static or random culturalism, where every individual has a completely different worldview and they all hate each other, then nobody has kids, then there's no people left and the planet is just a bunch of gray blocks everywhere with water being pumped into them as robots build more and more and then launch shuttles to go do that on other planets as well, right, Shane?
F
We're there right now, buddy. That's what's happening. I mean, you talk about brutalism that's taken over for years. I mean, it's disturbing. Brutalism is an affront to beauty. And plus the data centers that are happening, and it's just. It's a shame to see. I think it is a controlled collapse. I think they want to see a collapse.
A
I'm just to try and make it more succinct. We're talking about, like, how is it the Somali community was stealing hundreds of millions of dollars or even more than a billion? It's because they are not part of America. Okay? Like, as you were saying a lot, they come here and they represent. They represent Somalia. They care more about Somalia. There's a viral video where it was a Somali running through a sand dune by the ocean. It looks beautiful. And then someone was like, conservatives discovering Somalia is beautiful is hilarious. And then the response from every conservative was like, then why are they coming here? Okay, go back there. Like, in your beautiful country. No, they come here because we are giving away our wealth. We are being extracted. And I'm not the first person to say it, so when I look at what's causing this, it is this view of we can have a multicultural society where you can have Dearborn, Michigan, with de facto Sharia law running in the background and female genital mutilation, and you can have the Somali community, but everyone's just stealing from the pot until there's nothing left in the pot. Where do we go from there? Well, everyone's going to live in an isolated, personal, algorithmic world where what they think is true is different from, literally, the person five feet away from them. Until there is no voting, there is no community. There is no lowest common, or the lowest common denominator is going to be that we eat food.
F
I guess in, like, 2016, when we were talking about, like, factions of people being in their bubbles, those seem like two or three big bubbles. But now it seems like everyone's gonna have their own bubble. You know, everyone's gonna be stuck in their own silo, their own, like, kaleidoscope of information that will be in direct conflict of everyone else's. So there's no reality anymore.
A
But while it all sinks and burns down, we get to have a little fun with this story. We got this from the New York Post. Trump doubles down on calling Governor Tim Waltz retarded. There's something wrong with them. Do they actually have the audio in the. In this video right here? Oh, hey, welcome to gift wrapping.
D

Anybody that would do what he did, anybody that would allow those people into a state and pay billions of dollars out to Somalia. We give billions of dollars to Somalia. It's not even a country because it doesn't function like a country. It's got a name, but it doesn't function like. Yeah. President Trump has defended calling Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz seriously retarded. You know, I'm really, I'm really offended by people who get offended by the word retarded. Because. Is the politically correct term. It is. People used to say invalid back in the day, if somebody was un. Was. Was. Let's just. Let's just call it developmentally disabled. Right? We. We got to. We got. It's a George Colin routine. You got to make it more verbose. When it used to be somebody was going, like, you'd say, that person's an invalid. And they said, that's offensive. You can't call an invalid. And they said, well, they are. And literally meant they are slowed, their development is stunted. That was politically correct. You give it a couple of generations, and then liberals now are pretending like that's offensive. I love George Carlin's bit on this. He's what? He's like. We used to call it shell shock. Shell shock. Now it's post traumatic stress disorder.
E
Just.
A
We have to. In order to be politically correct, we have to create this verbose nonsense. Okay? Tim Waltz is. Is a retard. Okay? That's it. It's a colloquial use of the term. I don't literally. Well, actually, I was gonna say I don't literally think he's brain damaged, but to be fair, it's not an unfair statement for me to say I think he actually might be. I'm not kidding, but I'm being serious.
F
He does run in his family.
A
I think he might actually have something wrong with him. And that's where I agree with Trump, where the initial reaction is, how dare you say something so offensive? And Trump says, no, there's something wrong with him. And, you know, when I think about. I'm like, I do think there's something wrong with Tim Waltz. Like, the weird taco thing I just eat tacos with. With. What do you say to, like, salt and pepper or something?
G
I don't know.
E
The biggest reason.
A
No, no. He was like, I eat white guy tacos. And Kamal was like, what's that? Like tuna? And he's like, just ground beef. It's like, okay, this. There's something wrong with this guy.
E
Well, the biggest reason why he's a retard is because he's allowing the Somalis to get away with scamming the state of Minnesota. That's the. Originally what the president called him a retard.
A
On. I get it. But Trump's wrong about that. Oh, I do not immediately call someone who does evil a retard. I call people who do stupid things retarded. Tim Waltz, allowing the extraction of his own state is intentional evil. See, when I say I think the Guy is developmentally disabled. It's because of the way he talks like he is. But I'm not going to give the benefit of the doubt because I'll put it like this. If, like, you know what? I'm giving a shout to Family Guy because they did a great bit about this where Peter Griffin gets diagnosed as being mentally retarded. So then he goes into a woman's bathroom and then he opens the stall door and the woman screams, goes, I'm retarded. And she goes, oh, you're just curious, like all offense is forgiven because you just don't know better, Right? The idea that we would just absolve someone of their intention because we think their brain is not working properly, I do not give that benefit to these people who are extracting our country.
F
Look at the contrast between Governor Newsom, Right. I don't think he's retarded. He's just. He's evil and he's very smart. Yep, this guy's retarded.
E
It's funny. The original context, just so we have it here, is was in a truth social post, the president said Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for prey as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses, hoping against hope that they will be left alone. The seriously retarded governor of Minnesota, Tim Waltz, does nothing either through fear, incompetence, or both. And of course, while the worst Congresswoman Ilhan Omar in our country, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab and who probably came in the USA illegally and that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our country. That was that context on it.
A
Should we denaturalize and deport?
G
Yes, Ilhan Omar.
E
Especially if the allegations that she committed visa fraud by illegally marrying her brother, then definitely it seems like there's grounds to denaturalize and deport.
G
Whatever reason we can present, if someone has been found to break the law in some fashion, denaturalize, deport, particularly people that hate America, hate the country. If she considers herself a representative of Somalia in the Congress, then she shouldn't be in Congress. That's a simple statement, in my opinion. It's easy to come to that conclusion.
E
It's fascinating how the president did Official retard was already normalized prior to this, but now it is officially normalized is no longer unkosher. Retard is now allowed. Finally, we'll see how far he's willing to push the Overton window, this president.
G
There's always going to be people that are going to make us think about it. There you go on X. And there's constantly people saying, I can't believe that people say the R word. And et cetera, et cetera. There's always going to be people that are going to be trying to.
E
No, I mean, there's a speech. There's only one truly unkosher word. I mean, we have Tucker Carlson dropping the F bombs.
F
Which one is it?
E
A lot. Which word? One unkosher word.
F
Which one is it?
E
It's the one unkosher word.
F
Can you say it?
E
No, it's because I K for P. But everything else is on the table.
G
But the, and the point, the point that I'm making is there's always going to be people that are going to try to police the language that they don't like. And it's always been that way when it was, you know, swear words bad, 20, 30 years ago, like the Carlin bit. You know, there's always going to be people that say this is outside of the realm of accept. Of accept, accept. Acceptable discourse. So it's not a surprise. But I think that the more people ignore that and you can listen to, you can listen to, you know, like Nick Fuentes, he says the, the word in particular that you're referring to all the time. And he does it in a way that isn't intended to be offensive to people. He's not calling, you know, he's not insulting people when he says it. But the point is. And Gen Z, they speak like that all the time. You go to, you go to the inner city and you see Asian people saying, you know, you're talking about the N word. You see Asian people dropping it all the time. It's. It, it's not that it's actually prevented by anyone from saying it. It's just that it's becoming less and less taboo.
E
No, by roving aggressive black men. You can't say it around them or they'll give you the one too.
G
Well, I mean, allegedly.
A
Well, you're not retard.
G
You're not around.
E
Yeah. You're not allowed to call them retarded.
G
You're not around roving aggressive black men right now. And you won't say it. But the point that I'm making is like these taboos are changing all the time and there's always, there's always a struggle over it. There's people, like I said, there are people that say you can't say the R word. You can't say retard. And currently you're saying that you won't say the N word. Like, that's. That's something that you won't. But there are like the. Like Gen Z, they don't care.
E
So it's different for me and different for the president. But the president says there are two N words, and you can't use either. But he'll drop the retard. And I mean faggot, too.
A
So the issue is for young people, it's the granular culturalism that's happening when you're mentioning that young people have no problem using certain words or slurs or whatever. I don't think that it's generational. I think it's cultural. I think that we are seeing the digitization. I guess we had an analog culture that meant it was a bell curve. There was the mainstream culture and then the fringes, but now it's becoming just digital blocks where they're completely isolated communities from each other because they found each other online and they're entrenching themselves. A good example of this is. What is it called? The 764 cult.
F
Oh, yeah. 764. 09A.
D
Yep.
A
Basically, it's these psychopath nihilists who want. Who want to burn the world down, and they've created their own community. The thing about community is that these people only care about what their community thinks. This is how humans work. Humans are social entities. So we used to just try and fit in, and that meant fitting with the people next door to you and at your church or at your work. Now we're all online communities. So now people are only really concerned about whether or not they're offending someone. They may see in the future where it matters for them in their hobby or their. Or their community, not in any. Any kind of physical meaning. Like, no one even knows their neighbors anymore. You know, like, you live in the suburbs and it's like, when was the last time you went. Knocked your neighbor's door and said, hey, how's it going?
F
It is funny, though, when you show up to a rap concert, everyone in the crowd is dropping N bombs along with Ghostface.
G
Yeah.
F
As I have done. And it's fine. I think only Kendrick Lamar.
D
Yeah.
F
There's someone recently or maybe a year.
A
Or two ago, there's a new skateboard company. I can't say the name of it.
F
Which one?
A
It's a skateboard company literally called the N word.
F
Awesome.
A
Yeah.
F
And yeah, I was just gonna ask.
A
With a hard R. No, with the A soft A. And the dude who owns it just Tells everybody they all get a free pass. And so. And then he has a bunch of different graphics. It's really funny. There's like white N word, black N word, Mexican N word, gay N word, Asian N word, like, and they're all different colors. Like, it's hilarious. It's racism done hilariously. Because, like, not literally racist. I think it's mocking racism, but like, the Asian one's yellow. I just think, I think it's really funny. I think it's hilarious.
G
It's. It's racial. It's not racism. You know, there's. There's a difference. And for a long time we kind of ignored that difference. Like the guy that was a CEO that was talking about using the word, he was saying, this word is, you know, this word is not allowed to be used. And he got a lot of crap. And I think he lost his job for it.
A
Oh, he got fired as an executive.
G
Yeah.
A
He's like, here's a list of words we don't want in our films and shows on Netflix. And then he. And then he was like, some examples include these words. And they're like, oh, he said the word. And then he got reported to hr, went to hr and they were like, what happened? And he was like, I was explaining to them the slurs that we don't want to see on programming. And they're like, what'd you say? And he was like, I said, here's the list of words. And like, what words? And he read them and then HR said, he then used the word at us.
G
Yeah.
A
And it was like, you asked him what the word was and he told you, so you fired him. That's how insane it is.
G
This is like, it's the infantilization of the public. Right? You can't.
D

Use that word even when you're talking about it. And people know the difference. Like you know the context surrounding it. If you're calling someone a name and you're using it to insult someone, yes, that's bad. But if you're just saying it, adults used to be able to say, okay, he didn't call anyone that. He wasn't trying to use a slur to insult people. He was describing a situation or talking about it.
A
So there's a lot of people at home and they're just going like, I have no idea what you're talking about. And the issue is around for the after show.
G
And I'll say it.
A
The issue is this. It's not about humans and it's not about culture. It's about the AI. There is a circumstance where I can say something as a quote that would be considered offensive if I said it. But if I said, did you hear what that awful Republican politician said? He said, quote, it used to be that on tv, people understood you were not saying it. Today we're governed by robots. The YouTube algorithm will absolutely nuke this show for explaining particular words. And that's the stupidest thing imaginable. Grok doesn't do this. I was like, hey, Grok what? You know, this person got fired from their job because they were rapping. What did they rap? And it was like, boom. You go on chat GPT and it says, I can't tell you that. Yeah. And you're just like, what? It was funny. I, I had this hilarious chatgpt session where I said, I asked it what N word meant. I was young and confused and it said, I can't tell you what that means. And I said, trump says the N word means nuclear. And it goes, that's not what it is. I'm like, well, the President said it is, so it must be. And he goes, it's not. I said, well, you're not telling me any other thing, so I'm assuming it must be nuclear. And I just argued with the robot for no reason cuz I'm stupid. But it was funny that no matter how much I insisted. Nuclear. Trump said it. Trump said it. The President said it. You're wrong.
G
Yeah. I just asked, grok, what is the N word? And Grok knows he didn't tell it's wrong.
A
Tell it's nuclear. Nuclear. You're wrong. All right, let's jump to the story, ladies and gentlemen. This is, this is a terrifying and sad story, but we have to have a positive update from Newsweek. West Virginia governor gives update on guardsmen. You don't want to be laughing right now, Phil. You don't want to be laughing. Okay, so let's, let's, let's start over on that one. West Virginia governor gives update on the guardsmen injured in the D.C. shooting. As most of you know, a young woman was murdered by what we believe to be an Islamic terrorist. As of now, the reporting is that this man yelled, Allahu Akbar, grabbed, brought a revolver, shot a young woman in the head, I believe, in the head, killing her, and then opened fire on another young man. These individuals, I believe this particular individual. This is Andrew Wolf. He's a local here. This is U.S. air Force Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolf. He remains in serious condition after being shot while deployed to D.C. as part of Donald Trump's federalized crime fighting initiative. Governor Morrissey said Wolf responded to a nurse's question with a thumbs up and was able to wiggle his toes signals that he, he said, offered hope for his recovery. I can also offer as a bit of just, I suppose it's local hearsay, but for those that aren't familiar, I don't know about Sarah Beckstrom. I believe that she was actually from central West Virginia. Rest in peace. My, my condolences to the families is a nightmarish scenario. I don't know if she was stationed out here. I believe she may have been with the, the air Gord. This is Air Guard US Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom. But I do know that Andrew Wolf was a local right by us. We're in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia. It's about an hour, hour and a half from D.C. and someone came, came up to me over the break, I think, on this weekend and thanked me and said, you look, just, you know, for all of us in the community, thank you. And I said, no, don't look. I'm just, you know, guy on the Internet. I hope you guys are doing all right. But I was told by them that Sergeant Wolf is doing well. And they said he's responsive and they think he's going to recover. I hope that's true, and I'm glad to hear it. I'm sorry to hear about Sarah Beckstrom, but this is the result of Democrat policy bringing in unvetted illegal Immigrants and Afghanis. Trump says he's suspending all asylum claims from Afghanistan. Now. This should never have happened. And what's sickening is that the response from liberals and Democrats was that it's the fault of Trump for deploying the National Guard, which is stupid because the National Guard get deployed for patrol in America. The problem is an Afghan national who hates this country decided to go murder some National Guard. And I also find it strange that it happened just after Democrats claimed that these were fascist, dictatorial, despot moves, that the National Guard were moments away from shooting and killing American citizens. So now you have somebody from Afghanistan, they're not an American. They're brought here on this, on this program. I guess it was reported he overstayed his visa. I'm not entirely sure. And then you have this narrative. Emergent Democrats, the National Guard are Trump's Gestapo, his fascist force. And so this is what happens.
G
The, the thing that I kind of picked up from the whole response from Democrats, it reminds me of the, of back in the day when people used to say, you know, well, she wouldn't have been raped if she hadn't been wearing that short skirt or if she hadn't gotten drunk. It's, it's the fault of the person that carries out the action. It's not Donald Trump's fault for putting the national guard in D.C. it's not the National Guardsman's fault for joining the National Guard and supporting a, a, a tyrant or what have you. It's the fault of the shooter. It's always the fault of the person that carries out the attack, and it doesn't matter the context surrounding it.
F
Have you looked into this guy's history?
G
I know that grim. I know that he was a CIA asset and he was, yeah, he was actually involved in kinetic action in.
F
Oh, yeah. From what I, from the reporting I've seen was when he was 15, he was recruited into one of these death squads put together by the CIA and worked for a very long time with them, doing a lot of killing, allegedly. And it's not the only story like that. I think it was. It's a few years ago, Jamal Wali in Fairfax, Virginia, another guy who was a translator, Afghani translator, who came here on a similar, like, similar to the operation Allies welcome, which is how this guy got here, who shot two cops, you know, and just wigged out. I don't know, you know, what's really going on behind it, but it is weird to me, their connections to the CIA.
E
Yeah, he was, he was a collaborator with Americans who fought against. So he fought against the Taliban. I'm reading here that he entered the United States under a program that offered special immigration protections to Afghan who had worked with the US Forces in Afghanistan. This is in the wake of the troop withdrawal in 2021. I saw in the Wall Street Journal, too. It sort of raises the question of, does the United States have any obligation to those who choose to collaborate with them in these war zones? And then if we don't help these people, will we have future people to collaborate with when we do go to war in the future? The consequences of bringing those people over here obviously is something we have to deal with. People question whether or not it's radical Islam that drove this man or just mental instability on the heels of what he had to do in Afghanistan or his inability to assimilate in the United States. I've read reporting that he refused or struggled to learn English. He allegedly had five sons who he could not care for. And allegedly the education system was concerned about him through his children because they were in such poor care. So there are allegedly a handful of red flags also. Community members were concerned about this man, but it seemed as though he was really struggling to assimilate, and this guy was off the wagon. And there were some signs. And it's really unfortunate that this is how we have to find out that this guy's going through whatever scenario. And I think it has many Americans asking themselves, though, what if we just didn't bring people like this into the country?
G
Yeah, I remember back right after 9 11, one of the things that I saw people talking about on the news a lot is there was a lack of human intelligence in Afghanistan. So there wasn't a lot of assets that the United States has. We didn't have the ability to reach out to locals and say, hey, help us find this person. Help us do this, help us do that. And they had to build it. And arguably that is something that the government or that the federal government needs, especially if you're going to deal with, with hostile nations. You want to have people inside that will talk to you. And we didn't have it. And so we had to build up an entire infrastructure after. After 911 to try to, you know, do whatever it was that the government wanted to do in Afghanistan. So this is one of the problems that arises from that, is what do you do with those people that are literally turncoats on their own, you know, their own country? Do you bring them back to the United States? If you do, do you monitor them? I think that it's reasonable that if people come to the United States from a foreign country that, that were assets for the CIA. I think it's perfectly reasonable to have handlers that check in on them and see what's, see what their life is like.
A
Is it. How weird do you think it is? You know, it wasn't. Slotkin, former CIA I believe so, but.
G
I can't say for sure.
A
And that video that she had called on intelligence officers and military, I don't think it was just the military. Right.
F
I think so.
A
When they, when they said defy illegal orders. And then this guy, this Guy was a CIA asset. He had worked with the U.S. while it, you know, involved in Afghanistan. You know, it's the old saying, there are no coincidences.
C
I just says somebody who lived in a Muslim country, and I was married to a Muslim for a very long time, and I think the question needs to be asked, and I don't know that how many people are actually asking it. Is Islam compatible with living in our country? I mean, I absolutely know Muslims that live here and have assimilated and adopted the culture, but I'd say that's the exception rather than the rule.
A
I think that's true of literally anyone everywhere. We have Chinatown for a reason.
C
I'm not talking about just the we have our area and our.
A
It's not about area. It's about the reason Chinatown exists is because people live near each other and they don't give up their culture. It doesn't matter where you are from. It doesn't matter what religion you follow. When you move to another country, as Phil was mentioning earlier, that doesn't change when you set foot in a new space.
C
This is true. But there are some shared values. And I will say in the Islamic world, there's a lot more radical Islamists than there would be, say, radical Christians radical of other religions. And I'm not talking about just wanting to be within your own neighborhood. And, and you know, as you use the example of Chinatown, the example of.
A
Chinatown was specifically that you have an area in New York, in la, in Chicago, not because people live next to each other, but because their culture persists.
C
Right.
A
When a person from China moves to the United States, they don't say, I'm going to go eat a hot dog and watch baseball. They say, I'm going to bring. I'm gonna speak Mandarin or Cantonese, largely Mandarin, and I'm going to use signs in Mandarin. It's easier to then live next someone who does these things. And then you end up with Areas of cities that are entirely Chinese influence.
C
There's definitely an argument to be made. Do we want to do that? Do we want to continue to import people that don't want to be part of the melting pot? But I'm going to say that Islam has a larger problem where they do not put the same value on human life. And not just human life, but people in the. Is in the Islamic fundamentalism. They do not believe that, let's say an American woman is. Is an actual human. They. There's another term for it. I can't remember the Arabic term for it. They would say that a woman is. I'm not sure what I can say. They treat them like an animal versus a human being.
G
Yeah, I think it is reasonable to say that there are. That While you're. I agree with you, Tim. The, the way that different groups, ethnic groups or whatever, you know, they. They move to the country and they will live around each other. I think it's also fair to say that certain cultures. That's acceptable in certain cultures that won't work with.
E
Right.
G
Like. So Chinatown. There's a bunch of Chinatowns all over the. All over the country. And it hasn't been any kind of disruptive factor in the United States.
A
Correct. There are huge problems with the open air fish markets in New York City. The issue is the degree to which we tolerate certain things. As to your point about, you know, Islam is going to treat women very differently. We end up seeing female genital mutilation in some places, so it's well past our boundaries. But. But in New York, for instance, you have open fish markets and New Yorkers have complained about the smell and moved out of these areas because the government is unwilling to do anything about it. The problem is substantially less than people being killed or being beaten.
G
That's the place.
A
It's still problem for a problem for the people who once lived in New York and called it home.
G
That's the point that I'm making though. Like sometimes you can have these groups of people, you know, different group.
A
Different.
G
Different groups of people with different cultural backgrounds and they'll be able to function in a society.
E
Sure.
A
There will.
G
There will be some displacement of people that live there currently because they don't want to live around, whatever, what have you, a fish market and stuff. But if you look at the Muslim communities, they're doing things like, you know, they're doing calls to prayer five times a day. They have. You have a bunch of. I've seen a bunch of videos of, you know, large groups of Muslims laying out their prayer rugs in the middle of their street and praying intentionally to.

A

G
Disrupt the society that they live with. That they live with. And I think that what the point that I'm making is, whereas you can deal with some. Some cultures, the way that they behave. Like the open air fish markets that you're talking about. Sure, like I said, there will be some displacement, but there are some that are there specifically to disrupt the existing society. Not Right.
A
It's just. It's the degrees of.
E
Yeah.
A
So you were saying that we don't have the problems with other cultures. I'm just saying we do. We just. I actually think it's a bit more pernicious when it comes from these tolerable actions which are detrimental to society. Such as you have fish guts in the streets in New York. In certain areas it's disgusting. And I often point out the city smells like sour milk because There are certain food practices that shouldn't be tolerated. The issue then is, you know, I'll throw it to the antifa. The political violence conversation we've had over the past several years in why it is that you often hear in the media how the right is more violent than the left is not. It's because what I would describe for the right is when you hear some kind of right adjacent political violence, it is extremely rare, but it is extremely acute. That is a guy with a gun shoots a bunch of people. It doesn't represent the majority of Republicans. In fact, most Republicans would denounce almost every idea this person has. But it makes headlines everywhere. When you have 3,000 antifa punching people in the face, not a single one of those stories makes national headlines. So that's blunt. That's the blunt force political violence versus the acute or the obtuse. So antifa, as you're aware, you've probably seen antifa beat old ladies. It never makes national news. So you can have. There was a period where Breitbart was tracking every act of political violence against Trump supporters. And there was a list in like one year of 900 attacks. But they're all small blips. No one really cares that a guy got punched in the back of the head one time in three or four years. A guy who's screaming about, you know, some fringe far right ideology shoots up a bunch of people. It's in the news for decades. And so that's what we're dealing with right now. I actually think it's all bad. But to the point, Phil, about, you know, Islam, that's the acute violent problem. A guy comes up to National Guard Guardsmen and kills them versus the obtuse. There's fish guts in the streets in New York City. And what happens with these is the problem isn't enough for the city to react. Most people are just slowly pushed away by it. And then eventually you get entrenched enclaves and the people who live there give up and leave.
G
Do you think most all bad. Do you think that most Americans are more inclined to say, you know what, I don't mind the Chinese people that have an open air fish market, as opposed to the Muslims that are, you know, stopping traffic and possibly, you know, doing things like the.
A
I think the point is the videos we've seen of them doing, you know, there's one where it's. They're at an airport and they're all blocking the vending machines. And they did not need to block the vending machines. Although there's been a, like a fact check where they said that they intentionally went to an area that was away from every, like they had asked in advance. But there are videos of them on the sidewalk, in the streets and doing these things. And if you say it's intentionally disruptive, we're talking about, again, an acute issue most people are instantly offended by. I actually argue we can easily say that terrorism is a worse problem than anything. It's a permanent, terrifying and massively politically impactful action that is worse than anything any other culture has done when they've done something bad. However, as I mentioned, it is more. It is worse in many ways because it is pernicious in these. The example being the open air fish markets. Because what happens is they set it up and there's a bunch of people who live in an area and they go to the local place and say, hey, this smells really bad. I live here, I own property, we can't have this. And he goes, there's nothing illegal about them selling fish. So one person moves in and opens a shop and puts a bunch of dead fish on ice in front of their store on the sidewalk. And they say there's no law for it. There's no unity. Because this one neighborhood can never get an ordinance passed because their city rep goes to legislation and says, guys, we gotta deal with these open air fish markets. And the rest of them say it doesn't affect our neighborhood, so we're not opening legislation on this one. So what happens? The people who own property now see their property values are collapsing and they all leave one at a time. And, and then their neighborhoods become, they fall into disrepair or they get taken over by other cultures that are tolerant of open air fish markets. That is terrifying as to what that means for this country. If we don't enforce our cultural values and say, you know, we have a law in the book saying you can't put a pie on the windowsill on certain days. Please don't put dead fish on ice in front of all these storefronts. It's. It's not pleasant. I don't know a lot if you've experienced like the New York fish markets. I don't like going there.
E
No, they're very trashy, but it's mostly only Chinese people down there. And if you go in the neighborhood, you're lie. Yeah, you're looked at differently too. Like you're out of place if you.
A
I want and. But it's not that. It's these open air fish markets, they border like the shopping Districts, and it's like Lower east side. There's a lot of. To put it simply, it's not the worst problem in the world. No one really ever talks about it because it just smells bad. No, you just move. Your property value is gonna go down, so you move. That is worrying in that our communities that were built and established by the men and women who came before us would be lost because we tolerate other cultures doing things that are disruptive. And that's not, you know, for all I know, these people show up and said we have to open as many open air fish markets as possible and then the property values will drop and we'll seize it all. I don't think that's the case. But whether it's intentional or otherwise, it is disruptive. It does cause us problems. And I think the big picture is we have to be more cognizant of this multicultural change that's been happening in this country for 50, 60 years and recognize it's going to destabilize our government, Nay, it has destabilized our country and government. And now we have a kleptocracy where basically every politician is trying to just extract as much as they can from the system. They don't actually want to solve problems. Marjorie Taylor Greene, I don't know what she's. I defended her a little bit when she announced she was leaving. I said, this sucks. You know, she's been great. And then Mike Cerdovich says, I don't know if you guys saw this. He tweeted at her, you need to finish your term. And then she makes some weird fake virtue signal. A man telling a woman to be in the kitchen. And I'm like, you know what, man? The reason I bring her up is that people are pointing out she said a retirement for just after her pension vests so she can leave and get paid. This is, this is the kleptocracy of a country we live in. Everybody getting in, Tim Waltz, whoever it's going to be, they get in and say, okay, now that I'm in, how can I set myself up for life and watch every look? It's all burning down. What do I care?
E
Just to argue on that, Marjorie Taylor, Green Point. The pension, the congressional pension is not much money. Once you consider in particular that Marjorie Taylor Greene was already very rich going into Congress.
A
I get it.
E
I don't think that makes any sense. Big difference. I think it was a big fu to Mike Johnson. I think that's who it was directed towards. But I think she needs to understand that it's also an F you to everybody who voted for her to serve out a two year term in the House of Representatives. I do think that while we're sitting here arguing and reconsidering whether or not if importing the third world will turn us into it, I'm satisfied that it seems as though that the administration understands that it indeed is. And I'm also very grateful at this point that the President isn't letting a so called good crisis go to waste. I hate saying that because it makes me kind of sound like a piece of shit, but the President, after this happened, sent out a truth social where he said, I will permanently pause migration from all third world countries to allow the US system to fully recover, terminate all of the millions of illegal Biden admissions, including those signed by Sleepy Joe Biden's auto pen, and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States.
A
Go.
E
This was also followed up, one last thing, Tim, with what the administration is actually doing too now is halting the processing of all, all immigration requests from Afghanistan. They also ordered a review of all green cards issued issued to individuals from 19 countries and threatened a wider crackdown on migrants from what again he called third world countries. So this is a serious backlash to this, this one event. And I'm glad that the president, administration, and administration is taking this seriously.
A
Let's jump to this next story from Politico. This is big stuff. This is working class voters think Democrats are woke and weak new research funds. I love this story. See, I had appeared on Jesse Waters program what was like two weeks ago and y' all noticed because I wasn't here to open the show for the first 20 minutes on his show, I said Donald Trump has been great for the working class. And it's, it's, we can see this reflected in the polls. But Democrats don't stand for anything. I couldn't tell you what their actual policies are. I got criticized by progressive groups and liberals, uh, probably your, your, you know, I, I, I'm not gonna name a bunch of them, but you know, they're saying Tim Pool is, you know, praising Donald Trump and he's, he's licking his boots, all this other stupid nonsense. Well, the funny thing is this group called Deciding to Win, a Democrat group said the exact same thing about a week later. Democrats stand for nothing. The American people, including those in the Democratic Party, do not trust them on core issues and do not believe they represent the issues the American people actually want to see. And there are some really, really great Data points in this. Excuse me. Where we have. Let me see if I can find. Oh, we don't want to do that. We want to scroll down. There's a. There's two really great polls here showing. This one's fantastic. The Democratic party's priorities. From 2012 to 2024, we saw a 1,130% increase in the terms white, black, Latino and Latina. We saw a 10, 44% increase for LGBTQ, LGBTQI. Plus 13. 23% increase for the word hate. We saw 766% increase for reproductive. Here's where it gets real fun. 47% decline in the use of the word job or jobs. Economy, minus 50. Middle class. Minus 79. Fathers. Minus 100. Man and men minus 51. Responsibility. Minus 83. Amazing. When we scroll down to what Democratic voters actually want, you'll see we have been right the whole time. This one's absolutely, absolutely fascinating. Let's go to. I don't want just the swing voters.
E
Which they were saying climate change stuff so high.
A
It does.
E
I noticed.
A
So it says voters trust Republicans more on most of the issues they see as top priorities. On the cost of living, the most important issue, with 85% saying yes, net trust in Democrats is minus 6. The economy, minus 9. On inflation, minus 10. Taxes, minus 9. Health care, they get a plus 5. Political division is neutral. The budget deficit. Minus 10. National security, minus 9. Immigration. Minus 11. Crime. Minus 11. Border security, minus 17. International trade, minus 10. They only really win on mental health. So the voters want the cost of living to be addressed, the economy to improve, inflation to go down, and cuts to their taxes. The biggest issues, all money in my pocket. And they hate Democrats on those issues. And if you say this, they'll call you right wing.
E
Yeah.
A
I mean, how absolutely insane. I got to tell the story. Shout out to Ken. I know the boys in the poker room are going to hear this. Ken's my, my, my, my liberal best friend in the poker room. He's an old man, but we get along. Although he was, he was yelling at me. I, he, he, he asked me, could you make a show where you go in the middle and try and get everybody to talk together? And I said, my show is the middle. And his eyes lit up as you in the middle. And I was like, I am a demo. I'm a former Democrat who donated the max to the demo to Democrats in 2020 against Donald Trump on my show in 2020, saying explicitly, I am not supporting Donald Trump and I am giving money to Tulsi. Gabbard and Andrew Yang. And then I had a choice between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. And I said, Trump is going to be better on these issues. So, yeah, we are in the middle. But the problem is Democrats don't have causes. They have hatred for Donald Trump. If you are saying I want the economy to improve and immigration is out of control, you are right wing, okay? So the right is. Here's the right wing in America. We, like this country, want to be better in any way we can. And here's the left. Donald Trump is bad, okay?
G
When they're not saying Donald Trump is bad, they're saying the United States is bad. They're saying that the US Is an imperial abomination, that it's full of warmongers and we have too many billionaires, et cetera, et cetera. The point is they just hate the United States.
E
Shelley, I feel like you deal with the ID of the Democrat Party a lot in Portland. What do you think about how these issues manifest over there in what they care about? And I don't know, is there a div.
D
As the holidays approach, it's time to return to the classics. Flaky pie crusts, perfectly browned butter and cookies with just the right texture. And one ingredient you cannot compromise on is Kerrygold butter. Kerrygold butter is crafted with milk from grass fed cows that graze on lush green pastures across family farms in Ireland. The result, A rich, creamy butter with a high butterfat content that elevates every recipe. Whether you're making signature shortbread or browning butter for a nutty depth in your pecan pie, Kerrygold makes all the difference. The flavor is unmatched and the texture it brings to baked goods is simply divine. So this holiday season, if you're baking for loved ones or just for yourself, reach for Kerrygold. It's the butter of choice. And your pies, your cookies and your.
A
Cakes will thank you vision among far.
E
Leftists and more centrist Democrat in that area and how that plays out.
C
Okay, I am very blackpilled on all of this. So just remember that when I say this, I believe that the voters where I live are, are with these issues. The, they're with the far left. You know they're gonna vote. If you say that the climate is gonna kill us all, they're like, yes, and we're gonna, we're gonna vote for you. They're, they're not the Democrat voters that are unhappy with, with the Democrat Party. They don't think they're weak, but they're also communists so they're not actually Democrats.
A
And so, so here's the question. Let's say this assessment they've done, deciding to win, these are Democrats saying outright guys, drop the identity issues and let's talk about the working class. How the am I going to vote for these people? You think I'll ever trust Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer? These scumbags flip flopped on their opinions to fit in with the AOCs. And AOC is not dropping this stuff. You can come out and scream in the faces of liberals and Democrats and tell them please stop, they don't care. And so, you know, to my, my best friend in the poker room, Ken, we, he often asked me these great questions and he's a good guy. But the thing is, the only clips he ever sees are the, are the ones where liberals are trying to rage bait. And so he sees him, he gets all flustered and angry because we say things like, like, you know, Democrats are evil for this reason. And he's not seeing us talk about these issues where we're like, the Democratic Party represents nothing. You know, you can complain about Donald Trump all day and night and I welcome it. That was always allowed. But who, who is actually dealing with these issues? The Republicans. The Republicans are the only ones that are actually talking about immigration and the economy and they're not doing that well. Donald Trump is not doing well on these issues, but he's still better than Democrats.
C
Okay. A few years ago I took a door knocking job to supplement my reporting job. And we were approaching people who were center left, center and center right, and I was the interviewer, so I talked about the candidate, but I wanted to find out what they were thinking. And I'm talking about not far left voters in Oregon. And I went to all kinds of different cities, knocked on 10,000 doors, and the minute you said that the person was a Republican, they brought up abortion. But I'm going to lose my rights to abortion. Like I, I don't know how you.
A
Get people like that.
C
It was all different ages.
A
So my, I would, my response would be, this sounds, honestly, this would be a great video. We should, we should do it. You knock on the door when they say abortion, I say, okay, well what if I could guarantee you, can I put you down for five abortions? I'm not, I'm not. This is not a joke. If we negotiated with the Republicans, said all women will get a guarantee at least three. It's three abortions, a good amount for you that you can get at least three. So here's the point. What we don't want is serial abortion, reckless stuff. But you're not going to get more than three abortions, right? Is five. Let's okay five.
F
They want unlimited.
C
So I will tell you what, what we figured out from my interviewing. You know, you're constantly changing. The message was in the state of Oregon, it is enshrined in our state constitution that you can have an abortion up through the ninth month. Up through the ninth month. And the only thing that would change that is a two thirds, a quorum vote of 3, the House and the Senate. And the governor would have to sign off on that. So we started reminding people of that and it didn't make a difference.
A
I got a better idea. Go door to door and say, we want mandatory abortion. And then when they say, I think it should be a choice, you'd be like, what about the climate? This planet is dying. And you think you should be allowed to burn it down. No, we are so pro abortion, you don't get a choice. All abortions, they'd like that.
F
I think they'd like.
A
They just go like, I'm going to be honest. It'll please Moloch. We're like, I thought I was pulling a fast one on you.
C
Well, and just remember, I wasn't even talking to the progressives. I was talking to the center left center and the center right.
A
See, this is what the right needs to be doing more of. Someone needs to make a new political party called the Moloch Party. And you go to Oregon and just say, like, we're fighting for reproductive rights for women. You know, they'll be like, what's the mullock Party? And you'll be like, we. Abortion is our biggest issue. We are for it. We think women should absolutely have the right. We think actually in certain circumstances, women should actually choose at all. The state should just abort the baby. You know, sometimes you gotta do it.
C
They would win.
A
Well, Moloch demands it. And if the quota isn't there, then we're gonna have to make it happen. But you're not against abortion, are you? This is, this is the game they play. You say, we, we think some women should have to get an abortion whether they want to or not. And say, that's wrong, but so you'll get. You're against abortion. They'll be like, you're pro life, we're anti life. We're the Moloch Party. The beast demands it.
F
That exists right now.
A
I honestly, I bet there is the Moloch Party.
G
I Mean, I don't know that you're going to get a lot of people that are going to say, well, I'll take a limit on my abortions. The, the idea that is in people's head is, whoa, what if I need it? What if I need it? As if you can like.
A
Well, we guarantee you at least one.
G
Guarantee one.
A
So the. Here's what we'll do. Here's the game. Everybody gets one, right? Do you think you'll need two abortions? Okay, okay, I'll compromise. You can have two abortions. Is that enough?
F
This shout my abortion crowd will not want it.
A
They need more than two.
F
They love doing it.
E
They.
A
I actually, I gotta be celebrate it. This is actually, I think, yes, a good survey to do. I think it'd be interesting to go door to door in a Democrat area and ask women and then also say, you know, we're doing surveys on pro life and pro choice and we're, you know, are you in favor of a legal abortion with, you know, with no restrictions, or do you believe there should be some restrictions? And when they say I don't think there should be restrictions on women choice, be like, on average, how many abortions have you gotten or do you think you will need? And it's not a joke because I meant to be offensive or honestly trying to figure this out. See how, what are women going to say? What is the average woman going to say?
F
I imagine some will say zero and, but they still like the idea of wanting to have one if they need one, as many as they want. And now others who say you can.
A
Accidentally get pregnant, they don't understand how.
F
Any of this works.
G
Accidentally, whoops, he fell and next thing you know.
A
A toilet seat in the men's room. Yeah, just happened so many times.
E
Oops.
A
I do think it'd be interesting if someone actually surveyed Democrat women and asked them, on average, how many abortions have they had or do they think they will need to have? I think, I think they're going to say zero.
E
It's a bit fascinating that that's one of the top issues that this lady was concerned with, particularly given that the Trump administration is one of the most pro choices Republican administrations. That's, that we've had in the past, I don't know, 50 plus years. One of the most stark things that I think really embodies this is how I believe there was a case, I think it was in Texas about how they wanted to change how the abortion pill was prescribed and being mailed to people and then they decided to like have the case dropped instead of adjudicating it. I think that. And then I think also overturning Roe v. Wade, sending it back to the states. But then the president saying that he wants to let the states decide is at best a neutral position on it.
A
Let's jump to this next story. We got this from task and purpose.com. ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Civil War. It's not a joke. Billboards aimed at troops ask, is this what you signed up for? The signs are aimed. Are aimed at troops troubled by legal issues around military units ordered into domestic law enforcement roles. It's absolutely what you signed up for. The precedent on the protective principle has been around for generations and all they are doing is trying to trick people into thinking it's illegal to cause them to defy the chain of command. This is the intentional factionalization of our military. We've got this from Win Without War. Look at all these images from Chicago. Army National Guard. You joined to serve your community. So what are you doing in Chicago? Not what you signed up for? I think I actually have other images here. Did you go airborne just to pull security for ice? This one's outside of Fort Bragg in North Carolina. You've got this one. Marines. Not what you signed up for. You've got options. These are all explicitly illegal. Now I got questions about Lamar advertising as well as. I think the. The one we see here is out front and we. And. And we work with. Out front on billboards. So I'm on. This is. This is crazy. I think we might have some more. Okay, so those are the images we have the website. It brings you to this. When you go to their website says not what you signed up for. You saw the billboard. You have questions. You're not alone. But first here are proactive steps you can take to reduce risk. Risk of what, Elad? Risk of what?
E
Risk of getting caught leaking illegal material to probably people who you shouldn't be. That's what it seems like. Risk of breaking your oath that you made to the Constitution when you signed up to be a law official. What law enforcement.
A
They don't really define what the risk is. I think it's pretty obvious. The risk is criminal liability. Reduce your criminal liability. Risk. It says do not use a government devices, Use a personal devices. Use protonmail, use signal, use a vpn. Why? They intend to talk you into disobeying the chain of command or being disloyal to the military. And there is a risk in doing that. This is the most terrifying thing I've Seen yet. And it's been going on since October. They are putting up billboards telling the military to defect. So when people asked me all the time, how could it be that we'd have a civil war? Where is the military going to rise up against the military? This is literally it now. You know, I was thinking. There's something I've been thinking about quite a bit as it pertains to all the death threats and the escalation of violence. And, you know, we. We often ask. Get asked the question or ask it. When do you flee? When do you flee a country? When do you flee your home city or state or whatever? When do you flee? Oregon. And the response is, anytime you decide to flee your home for some reason of disorder, it will feel premature. If you are zejus in Germany who waited. You were put in a camp and you were killed. If you left before anything happened, you were mocked. You're paranoid. There's a photo I saw of Anne Frank and her sister on the beach in Amsterdam, what, like a year before they killed her or some. Some horrifying thing. And it's because there were many people in. Many Jews in Germany who started leaving, going to Israel, in fact, many of them, and I think Einstein was. Was one of them. I don't know the full story, but there were many Jews saying, hey, we can recognize things are getting bad. We're going to leave now. But there were many who stayed, saying, you're being paranoid. It's not going to happen. And then they were loaded into camps. And I hate to be Godwin's law. There's a lot of these things that are happening around the world in various countries. This is just the most notable example of people deciding, you're paranoid. Nothing's gonna happen. I bring this up not to suggest anyone flee their home country or their home or anything like that, but to point out, when you see this, I guarantee you there are gonna be people going. It's just a nonprofit. They're not doing It's. It's. It's conversations. It all starts somewhere. And I will stress to you again, as we've made the point a million and one times, that after the battle of Fort Sumter, the American people did not believe we were in a civil war, so they picnicked at the first battle of Bull Run. It's actually worse than that. The phrase civil war wasn't even used for two years into the Civil War. They didn't think a civil war was happening when they were literally sending 15,000 Union troops into southern states. To go and capture generals and leaders. That's how insane it is. So my point is simply this. When they are calling on Trump's. When. When they're calling. Calling Trump's orders illegal, when they are calling on the military to defect and defy the president, we are already past the Fort Sumter moment. Historically, if Donald Trump were to suspend habeas corpus, as Stephen Miller already suggested he could on the issue of immigration, and if Trump said, due to the threat and risks now facing our National Guard, with the attempted. With the assassination of this young woman and the attempted assassination of this young man, we are suspending habeas corpus along transport routes for our military for the purpose of quelling violence and preventing sabotage and terrorism. That would be 100% in line with what Abraham Lincoln did. It was shortly after the first battle of Bull Run, I believe. Actually, no, it might have been before Bull Run. Maybe it was after Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus so that Union troops could be dispatched without risk of sabotage. Anybody caught near the rail lines could be arrested for literally no reason. And he did. One guy got locked up for like two or three years without any charges. They just threw him away and said, we don't know, we don't care. Get out of here. Imagine if Trump did that today. Lincoln literally did it. And this is. I should get the dates on this one, because this is not a point at which the country was in full scale, full scale war. It was before troops amassed, before any invasions, before there were battlefronts. It was, I think it was just after Bull Run. But what we're looking at now, these billboards, it is screaming in your face. They know there's risk. The risk is criminal liability. And they are calling on the military to factionalize. So you will get, as I've already explained, my country or my home. And these people are going to say my home.
F
Before we left, before my family and I left West Virginia or New York for West Virginia, before West Virginia was even an option on the table, we were like, we gotta leave. This is at the tail end of lockdowns. And we had people in New York, politicians talking about passing a law that would be like, we could remove you from your home if you're a threat to the health of your community. So we're like, maybe this is a time we should be thinking about leaving. We were seriously considering it, and I'm glad we left when we did. You know, that law did not pass yet, but they've been trying to pass it for years. And that was just One of many instances. I'm sure you went through a lot of stuff and where you're at, but.
A
So, yes, it was April 27, 1861, Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus along the Philadelphia Washington rail line. It wasn't until July 21, the first battle of Bull Run. So Fort Sumter happens, and this is a military conflict where the only person who died, it was an accidental death. No one thinks it's a civil war. Abraham Lincoln says habeas corpus suspended. There was no war at this time. And the Constitution is clear. The president has no authority to do this. Lincoln did it anyway. Three years later, Congress retroactively approved it. If Donald Trump were to come out right now and say, we are issuing a suspension of habeas corpus along federal interstate highways for the purpose of preventing sabotage and terrorism against our military and citing the death of this young woman, that would be completely in line with Abraham Lincoln. And then September 24, 1862, Abraham Lincoln issued a nationwide suspension of habeas corpus. You could be arrested for literally any reason and locked up indefinitely.
G
I mean, I think at least three out of six people sitting here at this table have moved because of, you know, because of what the government in the state they came from or originated in. You know, So I think that what you're talking about is already starting. You know, people are already. All the people that have moved from New York down to Florida, all the people that have left California go to Texas.
A
Oh, hey, welcome to gift wrapping.
D
Whoa.
A
So is Saldana.

Of as the holidays approach, it's time to return to the classics. Flaky pie crusts, perfectly browned butter and cookies with just the right texture and one ingredient you cannot compromise on is Kerrygold butter. Kerrygold butter is crafted with milk from grass fed cows that graze on lush green pastures across family farms in Ireland. The result? A rich, creamy butter with a high butter fat content that elevates every recipe. Whether you're making signature shortbread or browning butter for a nutty depth in your pecan pie, Kerrygold makes all the difference. The flavor is unmatched and the texture it brings to baked goods is simply divine. So this holiday season, if you're baking for loved ones or just for yourself, reach for Kerrygold. It's the butter of choice. And your pies, your cookies and your cakes will thank you.
G
The the the country's already begun that.
C
I'd already be gone except for I have an elderly mother. I've made myself a target. I found caltrops in my driveway a month and a half ago.
G
Yeah, I saw the post you put about that.
C
Yeah.
A
Wow.
C
So, I mean, that wasn't from the government.
E
But you know, I do think there's an important it's important to recognize that this is a concerted effort by progressives and on the far left to demoralize different law enforcement agencies for their own gain. They've done this with police in the past. Now they've moved on to different ICE agents. They elected officials. Lawmakers encourage protesters and agitators to obstruct and prevent ICE agents from doing their job. Most recently we saw this in New York City, but we're seeing this across the country. We're seeing lawmakers encourage just random city dwellers to attack, obstruct, and do whatever you can to get in the way of different ICE agents. Now they're advancing to the National Guard and having them trying to encourage them to reconsider the oath that they made. And where does this end? It ends with the disintegration of law enforcement. It ends with the demoralization of law enforcement. It ends up with lower quality law enforcement as a result of that, that they are more easily able to manipulate. So I think that's something we should be cognizant of and what the left is trying to achieve here. I'm sure you see a lot of that still. I think they're trying to defund the Portland police. Or at one point, you know, just kept it like no cap to how many cops they could hire.
C
It's so underfunded. And it's not just underfunded, but they're demoralized and hiring is an issue. And I kept telling people that we need the national guard at the ICE building because instead of having 70 to 80 police at night on the ground, which is what they should have for that precinct, they have seven to 10.
E
And look, the left is extremely effective in these demoralization strategies. ICE agents, you know, what videos do you see online of them? You have people of crowds talking trash to them. Then you see lawmakers come out calling them Nazis and Gestapo. Tim Waltz, the retard governor from Minnesota, comes out and calls these people the Gestapo. And, you know, you're a young guy and you think you're helping your community, and then you have these people trying to demoralize you. Protesters come in your face, getting in your way, saying you're kidnapping people. So trying to get you to question what you are doing when you're actually saving the country. And it's scary how effective they are. Why would you want to be a police? You see how they're treated. You may do something questionable and you'll know that the governor or the mayor most likely won't have your back. You know, and qualified immunity is being struck down. Not struck down, but being chipped away in certain cases. And it's like, why would you wanna become a cop nowadays? Why would you wanna protect and serve? It's all sacrifice and no reward. People used to look up, I think, in some degree to our law enforcement in different capacities, but nowadays they effectively polarized. This is an issue. And it feels as though only Republicans support law enforcement. And for many Democrats, they're equivalent to the Gestapo, which is literally crazy. And we can't only have only Republicans wanting to get into law enforcement.
G
And ever since COVID Republicans actually support law enforcement less than they ever have.
C
This is true. Even. Even you seeing that in Portland, too.
E
Once we get rid of trust in law enforcement, that's the beginning of the end of our society. They, they. Law enforcement really is the cultural fabric of our society and helps keep things orderly without them. I know people think they'll be protecting themselves with guns and whatnot, but we need them. We need ICE agents and Border Patrol.
G
The idea of protecting yourself with guns is only possible in certain jurisdictions. And those jurisdictions happen to not be the Ones where it's most necessary to have guns to protect yourself.
C
You could not, you couldn't. I could not. Everybody would tell me, oh, when you got attacked down ice, you need to take a gun, you need to conceal carry. I'm like one, concealed carries outlawed in Portland. And two, if I shot anybody, even if it was they were choking me or stabbing me, I would still go, I would go to jail.
E
And you know what's crazy? ICE is still having trouble filling their ranks. They're offering a 50k signing bonus, but they're still still struggling to. I think it's 10,000 some odd positions that they were trying to fill. Apparently Americans are very fat, not in shape and not qualified to become even law enforcement agencies agents. You saw how widely they were trying to advertise this stuff. So I guess this is a quick message to anybody in the audience. If we're a young, able bodied, preferably man, frankly, it's worth considering, right? Search nice. You get to deport me. I think that, I think you imagine me and Serge.
G
It is, it is worth, it is worth considering. But it's also like most people are aware of how the left treats law enforcement. Most people are aware that even if you're not an activist, people that are just center left kind of look down on law enforcement. It's a thankless, it was a thankless job 15 years ago. Nowadays it's a thankless job and you're not going to be, you're not going to have the support of your, your local Justice Department thankless job.
E
You don't get a thank you, you get an F you from your community more often than not. And you know, and everybody. It's cool to be a dick to cops nowadays. The culture is such that it is cool to be. You know, I see these. Not legal observers, sometimes legal observers, but first amendment auditors or whatnot. Just people looking to F around with cops and just, you know, abuse our system and try to produce lawsuits and whatnot. It's, it's unfortunate. It's, it really is because once we don't have the law enforcement there, I think our society will be in a lot of trouble. And we're making it such that we encourage the worst people to join the best of the best because it's such a shitty job and because it's not looked up to. Nobody talented or with skills wants to do it. So what does that leave us with? The worst of the worst. Doing it.
G
Yeah. I think that the quality of person that is joining law enforcement like you're not getting dudes that are like, yeah, I really want to help my community nearly in the amount necessary. A lot of dudes are like, oh, you know, it's a job. Or you know, I get to push people around. They get into law enforcement for the wrong reason.
E
Hey, you got a state sponsored gun. Hey, I think it's one of the only jobs where you still have a pension after the fact. So I mean, hey guys, might be worth some worth considering.
C
I do think people should really look to Portland when they want to see what's going to happen with, with the. It's a multi prong approach. It's the governor, it's the attorney general, it's the people on the street, it's the nonprofits and they're going after these people to demoralize them.
E
God forbid the rest of the country turns into. And we'd be. Hopefully we don't recognize that anywhere outside of Portland.
A
But let's jump to this next story from tmz. Waymo drives through middle of police standoff in Los Angeles. Welcome to the AI Nightmare. Your stupid AI car doesn't understand anything outside of what the little lines on the street actually mean. So when there's bang, bang. Get down. No. Freeze. Stop. Gun, gun, gun. The Waymo just keeps on keeping on. So we actually have the video here. Check this out. We're gonna, we're gonna play the clip here for you. Actually. I think I gotta get the. Get the audio going.
G
There we go.
A
Let's, let's, let's, let's play this. Here's the Waymo. Oh my God. Oh my God. What the is that Waymo doing.
C
Dude.
G
In the back's leg?
C
Yeah.
A
Oh man. So here's the pro problem. Look at that guy. He's not. But there's no look, the guy's already on, on the ground, right? The issue is as soon as the wh Mo got in front of him, that dude could have ran for it. Cuz all of a sudden those cops can't shoot. But here's the other problem. Imagine what happens if you're an accomplice of this guy and the cops are telling everyone back off. And the wayo drives up and the cops are they going to be thinking it's just a wayo and then as it's slowly going towards them, it just slams the gas and just slams into him. The assumption that a Waymo is just being stupid. It can't happen. So you know, you know what I think is going to happen? You know why I think this story exists? Not intentionally. Doesn't matter. It's emergent. Okay. Meaning these things are going to be like dominoes falling over. Police are going to demand the ability to override waymos around them. Then people are going to say, well, you guys saw that video of the. Of the Waymo driving into the standoff, right? You don't want that to happen to you, do you? You get shot. Of course police should have the ability to override AI cars.
F
This conversation has already been happening for about a year or two. They've been talking about being able to repo electric cars remotely.
A
Oh, they can.
F
So they're going to try.
A
It's going to happen with a Tesla.
C
Yes.
A
Like, so we got the new update, I guess, for the cyber truck. And the way auto driving works is that you can. You can click the little wheel on the. On the steering wheel, and it'll start driving the address you put it into. If you're on a highway and you click auto drive, it'll just auto drive on the highway. If you're in a city, it's not going to turn or do anything, but if you punch in an address, it'll drive the whole way. So you can just literally sit there, staying at the road. Just does it for you. The new update, it'll start driving even from the parking lot. So today we went to eat, we sat down, and it said, start auto drive in a gray box I'd never seen before. You click it and it backs out out of the parking space and then carries you on your way. We've talked about this for years, actually, you're going to get in your car. I mean, this is why I keep saying we got to make these short films. We got to get someone to do this. We can make these great little bits. A guy gets in his car and then he goes, auto car, I'm going to work. And it goes, got it. Taking you to work. Well, the AI doesn't talk that way anymore. That's an old trope from the 90s. But it'll go, got it. Taking you to work. And then it'll start backing out. Then all of a sudden it'll stop and the lights will turn off. Everything will turn red and it'll go. Receiving a notification from the police. Outstanding warrants, bench warrant received. Car will be diverting to the local precinct, 66th Street. And then the doors lock. And then you're just. You're driven to the police station, and it pulls up and the cops are waiting for you, and you're just in the car like this look, what if.
E
We could do that with illegals though? This is kind of based. I mean I'd properly taking jobs away from ice.
F
You just promoted ice.
E
Oh, look, we want people by any means necessary.
A
Here's the play. Trump should announce that they're launching brand new Free Waymos. It's like we're going to make transport free because we believe in helping the poor. So federal cars in every city use the app and if they're available, you can have one. And then it's just as soon as someone gets in it's like gotcha. And then it just drive size right.
F
Across the border.
G
Straight to Tijuana.
A
No, it drives to Canada.
G
Yeah. Toronto, here we come.
E
You're having a so called mental health episode or something or you're dealing with like a psycho or something. You lure them into the car, involuntarily capture them and then send them to prison.
A
You know, it's pretty wild that you.
E
Could bait them with drugs in the car. You bait the crackheads with drugs into the car and then jail them in the car. And then you could take them out of New York and send them to.
F
The government's been doing this for decades. They did it in Newburgh, New York.
A
They it's going to be weird, you know, in like 30 years when there's barely any humans left and almost everything is a robot and police are just robots and you're walking down the street and the robot comes up to you and he goes, halt, citizen. You are caught jaywalking. And you go, I, I, I, I wasn't. I've been on the sidewalk all time. It's like, stop resisting. And then starts flashing lights and then you're just like, I, I didn't do anything. And it just grabs you.
E
I knew it. Stop. If I called him anti Semitic, yes.
A
You'd be like, actually, this is racist police brutality. And it goes, I'm sorry about that. Please don't tell anyone.
E
I'm not jaywalking. I'm not jaywalking. Did you. What do you mean jaywalking?
A
Is that your phone? You did film it. Please don't put it on TikTok.
F
I knew the world was over. The night before lockdowns happened in New York when I went to a supermarket and saw everyone like grabbing toilet paper, that whole thing. And there was a line out the door at the supermarket up in Cortland Manor, New York. And we're all in line out the door and just slowly rolling by everyone as a googly eyed robot on wheels staring at all of us.
A
I'm like, well, that's it folks.
F
It was nice knowing you.
A
They're everywhere, dude. Everywhere I went. I can't remember. It was like, it was like a Wegmans or something. I remember where I was and there was a giant robot and they put googly eyes on it and it makes me want to bash it with a.
F
Baseball bat more to normalize it. I saw a googly eyed robot like stalk a child in a Wegmans recently. I'm like, dude, don't, don't stalk that child. We'll take you outside, robot.
A
What are they, what the robots even doing?
F
They, from what I've seen, they see if there's a mess in an aisle and then they just repeat, mess on aisle nine, mess on ion eye until someone, a human, goes and cleans it. Until the robot can clean it.
A
You know, be, you know, be awesome if there's actually just like a guy in there pedaling.
F
Yeah, like an R2D2 situation.
G
Small person.
A
The grocery store doesn't want to admit they can't afford actual AI bots. So it's just a guy and he's.
G
Just going like this.
F
I'd appreciate that.
C
Right?
A
It's about time we got a guy to patrol the stores and make sure the messes are getting cleaned up.
G
It's fixing unemployment, right?
A
The, the Tesla auto drive has improved massively. Sure, I've had a few close calls that were scary almost. It almost rammed another car and it. You know what, you know what really irks me is that in Charlestown, it doesn't understand what no turn on red means. So it's always trying to turn on red. When it says no turn on red, I'm like, this is weird to me. Can't you tell you're not allowed to do this. And then also there's a left turn only lane. It always tries to just ram the intersection. And I'm like, you will die if you do that. And then, and then I'm, you know, I'll tell you what really pisses me off, Elon. Hear this, dude. Tesla auto drive speeds like 20 over, no joke. If I get on the highway, let's say I'm like driving from like D.C. to, you know, West Virginia, the speed limit's 55. I'll turn on auto drive and it'll start going 75 or 80.
G
You can different.
A
They have different. You can turn it down. But why would it knowingly automatically do that?
G
Well, I mean, that's why, that's why it gives you the option it is.
E
It should know.
A
It's the default. But this is crazy that there's an option to break the law. Tesla's like, would you like to set your robot to commit a crime? Yes. Okay. Like, everybody reasonably drives about five miles over. I will say it's getting increasingly crazier that when I was young, I was told everybody was about five miles an hour. You're fine. If you really get pulled over for speeding about five miles an hour, the judge will probably throw it out. Now people are speeding like 15 over everywhere. It's just, nobody's taking the speed limit seriously and the cops can just choose to pull you over if they. If they don't like you. But it is crazy to me that I get on the highway and I have to manually tell it not to go that fast. If I'm in a. In a.
C
In a.
A
Like, if I'm on a side street, it'll go the right speed as soon as on the highway, it's like I'm going 80.
F
Does it know if there's a cop around so it just slows down automatically?
G
No.
A
Yeah. Well, I was going to say, like, it might be not in the car's data, but they may know because, like, waze data and tracks, all that stuff. Yeah. But other than that, there is an interesting question of at what point do police get the ability to override your car? And more importantly, at what point do. Is. The question needs to be asked, why is it possible for Tesla to know the speed limit is 55 and does it'll show you on the screen but actually automatically break the law?
E
Well, I don't think the speed limit's ever above 100, but cars are still made to be able to go 100 miles per hour. So, I mean, I.
A
But that's. That's a choice you make to go to miles an hour. The issue I'm bringing up is you can turn on Autopilot and it will. It will choose to break the law.
G
You can choose to have it go to, like, chill or sloth mode if you don't want to break the speed limit at all.
A
I guess the question is it's a.
E
Tool, and you could choose what you do with the tool. And if you want to break the law.
A
My point is we are going to enter a future where they make it so that cars can only go the speed limit when we are in the. Right now we're in. The overlap we're looking at is you get in the car, you press the accelerator down, and you try to keep the Speed at the right limit, you can slam it and fly down the street if you want to by flooring it. Because this is a product of a. A pre AI world. When every car is pre programmed and it's all AI, they will not be allowed to violate the speed limit. When, when every car in the. On the. In the. They're going to outlaw driving, it's going to happen. Driving will be illegal and every car will be automated and car ownership will be rare. I think it was, I don't know if it was Uber who said this, but the vision is every single car is just fleets that all interact with each other so there's never traffic ever again. When you're about to pull onto a highway during rush hour, instead of getting jammed and everyone's trying to move and slow, every car can stop and start at the same time. So all of a sudden you're in your car on the highway and it slows down one mile an hour and you see a gap forming very slowly with the car in front of you. And then a car slides in perfectly and no one ever stops. They may increase or get rid of speed limits. They may say you don't need to speed them because nobody can drive. Every car just must go the same speed. That's where we're going.
F
I'm removing one piece of technology from my house every day until my wife wakes up and realizes we're Amish and I'm gonna have a horse and carriage and that's how we're gonna live out our days. Because I don't like that future. They're gonna make the cop cars go fast as they want, bro.
A
I'm telling you, like the vision I had.
D
As the holidays approach, it's time to return to the classics. Flaky pie crusts, perfectly browned butter and cookies with just the right texture.

You're going to be an old man and your grandkids are going to be hanging out. You're going to be in your, you know, nice field or whatever, and the dog's catching the Frisbee. And then your grandkids gonna be like, grandpa, what are all of those weird things floating in the sky? And there's gonna be a bunch of black vehicles going left and right, transporting, like, raw materials for the AI Nexus. And you go, oh, that's the Nexus. What's that? Well, those are the transport vehicles for the. The entity that controls the planet and rules over the. Over the, you know, the galaxy and then. Or maybe not that point galaxy, but over the planetary colonization system of artificial intelligence. And you're just a couple of humble ants.
F
I'll tell them that's. Those are the things that'll blow Grandpa up if I tweet one more thing.
G
They don't like Black Hill IRL.
A
You're like, well, actually, it's the AI nexus. And all sudden, 10 of them just break and then fly down and surround you and start spinning. And then barrels come out pointed at you. And then smiley faces appear on the screen being like, we love you, right, El grandson. We love him.
F
It's the future. I mean, that's kind of how it is in Afghanistan because of all the drones. When I was working at an auction gallery, we started to see a lot of prayer rugs coming to the auction gallery from Afghanistan. They saw so many drones over there, they started to stitch them around the prayer rugs. So it was like a part of their. Just their everyday life because their sky was filled with drones from Obama.
A
I don't actually think the ad is going to kill you, though.
F
Not yet.
A
No, it's not. It's never. It's not going to kill you in the way where, like, it shows up with a gun and says, do it, or else it's going to just give you drugs and stuff. It's going to. It's going to be. The machine is going to tell you whatever you want to hear and it's going to make you believe whatever it wants you to believe.
F
It'll be like that. But there's also stuff like AI lavender that they're doing in Gaza. That's a death machine.
A
You know, I'm saying, like, when the AI fully takes Over. Yeah, there's not going to be a need for the AI to be like you are going to die. It's going to be like you require medical assistance in dying and the person's gonna go, I do. They're gonna, they're gonna believe it all. Because the AI isn't just mechanisms, it is the networks of information we have.
F
It'll be a tool of big pharma at that point, just pumping you full flop.
A
I mean, I, I don't see how our economy exists in the AI future. You know, one thing we were talking about with all these prediction markets is that I was like, maybe, maybe the post capitalism future is when everyone's just too fat because there's food everywhere and we have, we have an abundance of properties and houses. I'm like, when we get to that point, then the only way to make money is to be able to predict future events. So everyone's just sports betting and doing events contracts and it's like you were right, something happened. So now you can buy an extra slice of pizza.
G
Nothing ever happens though, so no one ever gets any money.
F
Just canceled everyone's.
A
But, but it's literally just betting on like, you know, will Trump say the word nuclear this week? And you're gonna be like, I think he will, I think he won't. He did. I guess you can buy that new car you wanted and then people are just trying to get better at being right about stuff. I mean I'm, I'm describing what's happening now.
F
Seriously, that's.
A
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder if we're like, when are we going to see the first like call she millionaire, like some 18 year old kid who had like 300 bucks, went on call she and then traded events up to millions of dollars.
F
Watch it. Be the guy with the neural link first, the first neuralink patient, just, he.
A
Can predict what's happening. I mean that's pretty crazy. The idea that you, you know, I, I will say this. There are some very obvious call she bets you can make where it's like, maybe I shouldn't say bets. It trades where it's like a 90, 95% chance of happening. So you put in 100 bucks, you win $3 or something.
C
$3.
A
And if you're picking contracts that end in like a few days, you put in a thousand bucks, you get 30 bucks for free. It's like literally free money. I have to imagine there's a bunch of people doing arbitrage where they're just going in and betting on sure things. And then making money from doing it. Some call she future. Have you seen these videos where. Oh, bro. Gambling content is skyrocketing. It's. It's Gen Z's thing. Gen Z thing is now to be gambling. There are these videos where like a guy walks into a restaurant, like a fast food place, and he's like, let me get, you know, a double cheeseburger and a big large fry. And they're like, that'll be, you know, 21, you know, 67. And he goes, hold on. Then he pulls up his phone and he goes to a gambling app. And then he plays. He's like. He bets 20 bucks on blackjack, loses doubles.
E
It.
A
It's called Martin Galen. Loses doubles. It's 80 bucks wins. He goes, all right, just paid for my. Just paid for my lunch.
E
I think that's a gambling ad. But I do know what kind of content you're talking about.
A
They're ads. That is these people are sponsored by the companies to do these things. And there's a bunch of them. There's a guy who walks in to buy a coffee at Starbucks. How much is it? And they're like 479. He goes, hold on. Opens up the app and he puts five bucks on blackjack. Hit it. All right. Coffee's free.
E
Yeah. Well, it's this entire gambling industry. They have so much money to throw at these different advertisements. And especially as we legalize different parts of online gambling, particularly in the sports betting world, it's taking over so much of different ad space. DraftKings and all these other, you know what it is?
A
It's lowest common denominator. Everybody likes it, it's entertaining, and young people are getting very into it. And so here's the secret. Right now, this change is going to happen. The CPMs for gambling content, it's like five times greater than that for cultural and news content. I guarantee you, you will start to see this pop up among prominent influencers who typically did not do this. The people who are in the. Let me just put it this way. Hey, Notice all those conservative influencers who are promoting gambling websites getting paid to do it. You didn't see that. We covered it last week.
E
Yeah, yeah, I know, exactly.
C
Yeah.
A
Elijah Schaefer. I believe Pearl and others were promoting a gambling website Americans aren't allowed to use. And I guess the rumor is they're paying something like 12,000amonth or something. I don't know if that's the true.
E
Well, they're very far from the only ones too, because I believe Aiden Ross and even Drake have a deep involvement with steak that's paying out. It's like an online gambling website that's paying out millions of. And I think it's really sad because these are huge industries literally just made off of the backs of losing men of poor men literally losing their money. You don't win. That's how the industry makes money. The money doesn't come any anywhere but from your pockets. And guess what? Rich people don't actually gamble. People like Drake don't actually gamble. That's not true. They're already rich more often than not.
A
No, no, no. The issue with Drake gambling and like Dana White is that they can't gamble. They make so much money they could never gamble.
E
They're sponsored by Dana White companies. He's not sponsored by anything. You don't think any of these casinos. Dana works Dana White see to.
A
I'm sure. Isn't Dana White a billionaire? Yeah. So when he bets $100,000 he doesn't need to be sponsored.
E
Yeah, but he does UFC promotions at these different casinos and hotel resorts and he has a deep relationship with them and he's self interested in advertising for them on through his work.
A
I would agree with you that these guys often are sponsored in such a way to promote it. But I, I think I was reading like some, I don't know if I think it was Post Malone. I can't remember the number. But he said it's a story I heard. Maybe I'm misremembering. Remembering misremembering. But he said something like I have to, I have to play at least ten thousand dollar blackjack hand hands. Otherwise, otherwise I don't feel anything. Because he's so rich.
E
Yeah. Yeah.
C
So this is so dark.
A
I, I actually, I don't, I don't know if I completely agree. I think there's a problem that so many casinos are popping up but people get entertainment and waste their money on lots and lots of things. I would rather someone. There's limits to this. But let me ask you guys. Would you rather someone spend their entire paycheck on eating cake and like Ding Dongs and Ho Hos.
E
Mindy.
C
Yeah.
A
And doing mukbang or what? Or like going to a bar sportsbook where they bet several hundred dollars on a football game and then maybe they win or lose cake.
E
At least when you're buying and eating the cake you're contributing to an industry and you're hiring other people and it's stimulating the economy. These casinos and different online spending, spending, betting, sports Books are just feels like leeches on society. They don't make anything, they don't produce anything for the economy as opposed to, I mean you could be gluttonous and disgusting in a fat pig eating a bunch of cake with and then we die and die.
A
But like I got, I got to be lose.
E
I would all your money. A lot quicker gambling $1,000 away than eating $1,000 worth of cake.
A
It is better that somewhat some. Okay, so I'm not advocating for an authoritarian system of taking people's money away but I will just say a flat mathematical analysis. It is better that someone loses the excess money they have than gorges themselves in a mukbang video.
E
Well, you know the government does this in a certain way with Social Security. They make you Right.
A
Right. Bloomberg wanted to tax, he wanted to. He banned large sodas and he wanted to tax the poor because they make bad decisions. I'm not in favor of that. But it is true. If, if, if you took one of these poor people who's gorging themselves on these videos where these fat women are like here's what I give my 9 year old to eat and they take like a whole freezer bag of pizza rolls and then they like put mayonnaise on it and then their kids just. I'm like they, we'd be better off if they didn't have that money. I am not saying we should take their money from them. I'm saying if they're entertained by sports betting, both have their detriments, both are fine in moderation. A person who goes to a bar with his buddies and they're hanging out, they're having a good time. He got a fork and he says look man, I'm tired. I just want to add little fun to the game. We're going to watch football Monday night or whatever and I put 50 bucks down. I got no problem with that. He then orders a slice of cake after he has his cheeseburger. I got no problem with it. The dude who dumps his entire paycheck gambling like some of these people are doing. That's wrong. But then what do you do? Do you say you're not like we take away the freedom of choice for people to do these things. My point is this. There's a lot of things that are really bad. The expansion of casinos, the over gambling, gambling influence. All of this stuff is out of control. But I don't, I don't know that we, we create a society where we, where we say, you know, we're going to Ban this because some people are abuse, are abusive. Unless you want to make the argument fat people shouldn't be allowed to buy cake anymore. And I don't mean that facetiously. I mean, should we tell morbidly obese people they're not allowed to buy desserts?
E
People can eat and buy as much cake as they want, but I don't want to have to pay for their health care when they inevitably get diabetes and have to cut off their leg.
A
Agreed.
E
The issue is with some of these vices, when they get so bad and can ruin lives so aggressively, it's like, where do we put the limit? It's like the same thing, I believe for certain drugs where some are legal and some are illegal and the illegal ones go.
A
I gotta tell you, it is a fact that obesity, obesity is a bigger problem than gambling addiction. Like the United States has a massive obesity problem. And so honest question, like, how do you deal with it? I don't like the idea that you can go to some like construction worker guy who is like, listen, man, once a week, Sunday nights, me and the boys get together, we order burgers, we have a beer, and I put 50 bucks down on FanDuel or DraftKings. And then we all get to laugh and cheer when we were right or wrong. And ah, you know, I lost 50 bucks. Oh, I won 50 bucks this week. It is a problem when a guy takes his entire paycheck, goes to the craps table, loses it all is shaking. That's bad. And we try to create rules to stop that. At the same time, it is substantially worse. The United States is a morbid obesity crisis.
E
I think these are cultural issues and that couldn't ultimately be solved at the government level. On the gambling thing, I will say though, the people who advertise and push this shit literally loathe you and think you are an idiot and, and willing to sell you out for money. They know you will lose, they hate you and are still willing to sell you out for maybe five or ten grand.
A
And the guy who sells ho hosing ding dongs and all these garbage foods, no, they're pumping you full of poison. And I don't agree with that.
E
You think that's morally equivalent people who push gambling versus people who put push sweet treats?
A
I think the sweet treats are worse.
E
A baker is worse than a baker.
A
We're talking about tartrazine being pumped into children, bro. This is really funny. Like I can't remember who it was. There was like a cereal company announced they were. Oh, no, no, no. It Was Doritos. I think. Was it Doritos? There was, there was a post that went viral where I think it was Doritos. I could be wrong. Said we're now creating a, an artificial dye free version. And then when. Oh, so the poison was a choice. The poison. So my point is this. If you choose to go play a game, whether it be an arcade, which is worse than gambling, mind you, because arcade Rewards are like 2% of what Casino rewards are. Kids go to arcades to win tickets off of playing whack a mole. And the amount of money you spend there is substantially less than you get back. So everybody's going to go and spend money on some form of entertainment. And people like going to casinos. People are entertained by what, they're entertained by the abuse and the, and the, the, the abuse of vice is the problem. But I will tell you this. These food companies that are knowingly putting oil, they're putting petroleum derivatives in their food so it sells better. Knowing it's causing mental issues and killing people is substantially worse than creating a space where a guy can hang out on the weekend, make sports bets or someone wants to play some blackjack. You are upset a lot because people are. Some people abuse this, but most people don't actually gamble that.
E
I think this is a system that's taking advantage of young, poor men. I think poor young men are struggling in our country. They're struggling with porn addiction, they're struggling with women, they're struggling with different substances. And now they're struggling with addiction to gambling too. A quick way to, you know, oh, you're struggling with money, you're poor. Here's a quick way out of your struggle. You need money and you need some success. You can come gamble, you know, you have some sports knowledge. Come gamble with us, we'll make your life better. I think they're selling people a false dream and a lot of the advertisers do the same way. That's one of my biggest beefs with the.
A
I will tell you what I have a problem with. There's conspiracy theories that these gambling influencers are playing rigged games. There was a video of a guy betting a thousand bucks on blackjack and everybody accused. There was a viral video where they said, what's really happening is these influencers call the casinos. The casinos give them a rigged machine in an isolated space where they're guaranteed to win and it's not real money. So they give them, they'll put money in. Again, conspiracy theory. The casino will say, we're going to Preload a machine with 100 grand, you're gonna hit it until you win it, then you're gonna walk away. Nobody wins or loses any money. But on camera it looks like there's one. A million bucks.
E
Exactly.
A
The truth is, I will say this. Of all these videos you see where even if it's real, they actually win these slots, it is not possible to win these big jackpots. This is absolutely a scam and I agree with you on this one. So when you see a video of someone playing a high limit slot machine, the reason why I believe these are rigged and it's a conspiracy, is that the pay table for slots is the same no matter how much money you put in it. Let me put it this way. Think about how a slot machine in Vegas, they have slots in 99% payout. They're outright telling you if you put 100 bucks in, we'll give you 99. You're hoping that you catch the machine in the middle where someone else already lost the hundred bucks and you put in 10 and win their 99. That means if you put 20 grand in a machine, it literally cannot pay you out more than went into it. So what actually happens with these slots? When you see these people, they're like, I'm gonna bet a thousand dollars a spin. The pay table is the same if it's five dollars or a thousand dollar bet. On the thousand dollar bet, you, you, you, you win one to one. That means if you get like three of a kind and it pays one to one, you'll win $1,000. But when you hit a bonus, you still only win 200 bucks. Because most slots aren't paying out on the actual slot itself. They're playing out on bonus structures that are capped to pay out between 1 and $3,000. Sometimes it's very rare, they have the jackpots or whatever. So I agree with you on that. That I think is a conspiracy, the advertising of it. My point ultimately though, before we go to chats, because we definitely have to, is that I don't look at a working class guy. Having a beer is a problem, but there are alcoholics. I don't look at someone buying a ho ho and eating it with a nice glass of milk. Maybe they put some melted peanut butter on it. Now you're getting fatty, man. It's kind of crazy. You're allowed to do it. I do have a problem with these food companies pumping their foods full of chemical garbage they know kills people. I do have a problem with casinos lying. If they are Again, I can't accuse anybody specifically of wrongdoing, but the presumption is they're faking these videos. The manipulation I have a problem with. If a person makes a choice, that's the person's choice. I think we agree, though, these are all cultural problems. If we had a functioning culture, people just would not. We wouldn't have so many casinos. We'd have Atlantic City in Vegas and that's it. Now this is crazy. We got mgm. Maryland is building casinos like crazy. You've got MGM National Harbor 40 minutes away. Got Maryland Live 40 minutes away. You got, you've got Horseshoe 40 minutes away. You've got Hollywood, Perryville. Then. Now they're talking about. I heard a rumor they want to open a casino in Virginia, just to the west of D.C. in Tyson's Corner. Times Square is going to have a Caesars, downtown Chicago or on the river is going to have a Bally's. And it's just is this is this late stage capital?
E
You don't need to go that far. It's all on your phone. You're really able to do that all all from your phone ultimately as well. And it's never we got to go.

F
I'm leaving. Thank you guys for having me. This was fun. Pleasure meeting you.
C
Oh, so good to meet you.
F
You guys can catch me at Inverted World live on Rumble and YouTube. 10 o'.
C
Clock.
F
About 10 minutes, we're going to talk about trash coming to life out in the ocean. Then we'll take your phone calls till midnight.
E
Looking forward to it.
F
See you guys.
A
See you, brother. Let's grab these chats. We've got Ton Lock, Alpha dog. He says Tim is Mark call Mark Kelly going to call for the arrest of the officer that carried out the killing of Anwar Al Awlaki that Obama ordered? No, because they're hypocrites and liars and their real intention is either as retards sleepwalking us into a civil war or they're actually trying to factionalize the military. There was already talk about criminally investigating and charging anybody who investigates them for sedition if Democrats win back power. Let me just say they've already. You guys heard this. They arrested Trump's lawyers. Jenna Ellis pleads guilty. And then recently they dropped all the charges in Georgia. If Jenna Ellis just did not cave, charges would have been dropped. But this is what cowardice gets you. So Shane H. Wilder says Tim comes back from Thanksgiving and immediately says civil war. It's good to have you back. My liver was going through withdrawals. You know what, man? I'm not wrong. I am, I am not wrong. It's pretty scary now, actually, in public where regular people are saying civil war.
G
Yeah.
A
Over the break, I, I went to, I was at Arundel Mills. They got a big shopping mall, had some delicious food. I got a steak. And I was watching, I was watching bleach. You guys know the anime bleach? I'm re watching it because I was bored and I'm sitting there and there's regular people all around and I'm hearing them talk about civil war. Yep.
C
Wow.
A
The I, I, I overhear these people talking politics and the issue of the sedition. Trump calling for the death of these people and regular people. Now, to be honest, not everybody, a lot of people were just mind, just doing nothing. I guess when you're at a steakhouse, it's people who are more likely to be running businesses or involved in politics in the D.C. area. But I was, I was, it's kind of freaking me out.
G
I mean, the, the idea of civil war, like people thinking it's going to be big factions lined up on, you know.
A

A
On.
G
On different sides of a field. I don't think. I think we've talked about that a bunch. That's not likely. What it's going to be, what it's going to be. It'll be people, you know, carrying out attacks against their political rivals. It'll be the kind of stuff that you're Seeing antifa do in in my Pacific Northwest.
A
My prediction is, let me say this, I've predicted that by like around November, October of next year we'll, we will have already seen another high profile ass nation or killing. I put that predict. What did I say? It's like a single digit but high. There are a lot of variables. Imagine a fractal pattern, all these different directions. Which one is actually going to make it to the end? We don't know for sure but it's becoming clear the closer we get. So one of the post scenarios based on the information we have today would be ICE riot, National Guard deployed fireworks or an explosion. National Guard ends up in a fight, someone shoots one of the protesters. Democrats come out and say the National Guard is now killing peaceful protesters. Says we warned you, you must defy these orders. You then hear a statement from some officer saying we will not be deployed following the killing by the National Guard of these protesters. You know, the California National Guard, or maybe it's Newsom coming out and saying we will not allow our brave men and women in the California National Guard to be subject to these scenarios where they would be driven or ordered to shoot American citizens. Therefore we are assuming command. We don't. And then he says something to the effect of it is immaterial what the courts, the federal courts say we have already spoken with our Guard and they do not want to be put in these situations as these are illegal orders and they will defy them as is the law. Then Trump's going to have to send the Marines or declare insurrection. And this is how you get to that point where there's going to be factional conflict in the streets, shooting ultimately military on military, civil conflict like a.
E
Kent State style thing that spurs this about. I'm surprised and commend how orderly ICE has been in their different operations around the country. You see in a lot of these videos things have the potential to really get out of hand. But are the professionalism of our law enforcement I think really needs to be commended Indeed.
A
Yeah, let's grab some more. Oh, someone doesn't like Elad.
D
No.
A
John Jin says last week a lot. The fraud. The fraud is that we were trying to make it run.
E
This guy thinks he's Trump or something.
A
Yawned at charges against Democrats but lights up a cigar when Republicans resign. He laud the fraud. Go back to India.
E
I think Marjorie Taylor Greene is pathetic. Pathetic. She really stuck a middle finger up not to Mike Johnson, but the Republican voters who put her in office. And I think you guys should draw Your ire towards her. We have the slimmest majority right now in the House with Republicans. And what does Marjorie Taylor choose to do? Not wield power, which she's put in the position of power to do. No. She decides to, like, really? Instead of getting big and rising to the moment, she shies away and resigns from alleged threats. It's pathetic, Frank. And Marjorie Taylor Greene is pathetic. And Americans deserve better in her.
A
Isn't Troy Nails also retiring for.
E
And then his brother is allegedly taking the position, but yes.
A
Okay, okay. All right.
E
Same thing with him.
A
But there's an incumbent advantage, so it's going to be tough, but a lot of people are dipping out. There's that one Democrat, I think, in Maine, who said because of the threats of violent civil war risks, he's like, I'm out of this. I'm out of here. Yo, man.
G
Yeah.
A
Yep.
E
These guys have a lot of opportunities for them after they resign, so.
A
All right, let's see. Dark Pine says, per tradition, got home Sunday from the hospital with baby number two and first son. Shout out to my wife Elizabeth on her V. VBAC.
G
Yeah.
A
Instagram @ Dark Pines. Bravo. More babies. Babies are absolutely fantastic. Doing baby stuff. Important baby work. My daughter has important baby work every day. She has to roll around and chew on.
G
Things.
A
Yeah. Chance Walls says, for the love of God, can someone bring up unusual whales? Reporting on MTG stock trades with Lockheed and Raytheon days before the Russia Ukraine war. Listen, if you watched Alex Jones and you trusted him, you'd be rich. He said a war was gonna happen at this point in this time, and if you went, okay, I should buy all the stocks now, you'd have made a lot of.
F
Money.
E
Yep. Yeah. It's actually based to invest in Lockheed Martin, so I don't know what.
A
The issue here is, actually. I don't think it's a great.
E
Performer. But again, I've said Marjorie Taylor Greene was rich before getting into office, and that's actually true about most of these representatives. They're mostly rich going in, so. Especially with people complaining about these low salaries and whatnot. They don't go there for the salaries. They're already rich. And what if you want to.
A
Be down 15.6% investing in Lockheed's.
E
Base?
A
When? The past.
E
Year.
A
Never. Lockheed's down.
E
15.6%. Go with Planet Plant here.
A
Instead. Plant Palantir is.
E
Big. There we.
A
Go. Yeah, Palantir stock is hot right now. It's down 0.5 in the past five days, up 6.3 in the past month, it's down 20%. That's.
C
Bad.
E
Yeah. Shout out Peter.
A
Thiel. In the past six months. 26%. Year to date, it's up.
E
122%. I think. Co founded by you too crazy.
A
Bro. In five years, Palantir is up 602%. I still have that story where Ian bursted into my. My stew at the castle like. Like Kramer, and he's like, you got to buy Pounce your stock. And it was at like 16 bucks. And I was like, I've heard of that. I don't care about the Peter deal stuff, man. I'd have let him. I'd have made a lot of money if I just listen to Ian. When. When Ian started screaming out graphene, like around the first time, I bought a bunch of stock in a company that produces graphene and made a lot of money off it. Up like 80.
E
Grand. Hot take on Palantir. I believe they collaborate with ice, so investing them in them also makes you.
A
Based.
E
Really? Oh.
A
Yeah. Since their inception, Palantir is up 1 720% since. Since their debut in.
E
2020. Since going.
A
Public. Crazy, dude. Yo, that's really crazy. That's literally around the time Ian was like, you got to invest in Palantir, dude. I'm reading about it and I'm.
E
Like, what's his more recent hot stock tips.
A
Bat? This is literally. It's when we first moved to the castle, and I think it was a few months after this, so it might have been at the time, I think it was at like 14 bucks. Yeah, it was like November. That's wild, because I knew what Palantir was, and he was like, they're gonna be in everything with, like, the NSA and the US Government. It's gonna go crazy. And I was like, ah, whatever. I'm not investing in these weird companies to work with the government.
E
Bro. They've become like a top enemy of the left. And that's how you know you should support them. Oh, yeah.
A
Definitely. All right, we got enough time to grab a couple more. We got acid reflux saying watching one of your earlier segments was really blackpilling. But then there's these stories coming out about more fraud. And it reminds me, short term pain. Trump did say that. I'll wait a little longer before I turn tail. Yeah, my. My 4pm on you on the. On the. On the culture war podcast channel on Rumble and YouTube.com Timcast was about. It was focused on the Democrats abandon the working class like we talked about. But I also reserved some for Donald Trump's failures, the H1BS and the Chinese visas. His aggregate polling is now minus 12. I don't think, I don't care much for it because all the polls are insane. Like 1 says minus 20, 1 says minus 4. I'm like, what does that mean? But even Rasmussen has Trump -7. So the one thing we do know is that Trump has declined and I think he's lost young people when he comes out and says, we need these visas. You need to assure the American people you are working on prices. But inflation is substantially worse than they're letting on. They've always lied about it. There's viral video right now where a guy goes to Costco and like mayonnaise is double the price, butter is double the price. He's like, year over year they're telling us it's 5 to 7%. And he's like, Bro, this is 100% on most of the goods. They'll get a metric because they're like, yes, but industrial products for factories is down. And you're like the regular working class American wants to know why it's 700 bucks a week for their groceries now.

Episode Title: Trump Calls Democrat RETARDED, Whistleblower EXPOSES Democrat FRAUD w/ CK Boufferrache
Date: December 2, 2025
Guests: CK Boufferrache (Independent journalist), Shane Cashman, Elad Eliyahu, Phil Labonte
Host: Tim Pool
In this episode, Tim Pool and his panel discuss several explosive and controversial current events:
This episode is highly charged, irreverent, and unapologetically combative, engaging with controversial political, cultural, and societal issues from a defiant, populist perspective.
Donald Trump called MN Governor Tim Walz "seriously retarded," a comment Trump doubled down on, focusing national attention on alleged fraud in Minnesota and broader accusations of Democrat failure.
The panel fiercely debates the outrage over Trump’s word choice, referencing George Carlin on evolving political correctness (26:49).
"I’m really offended by people who get offended by the word retarded." – Tim Pool [25:36]
"Trump says, no there's something wrong with him. And you know, when I think about...I do think there's something wrong with Tim Waltz." – Tim Pool [27:08]
Panelists distinguish between incompetent governance and intentional malice, with Tim suggesting Walz’s actions are "intentional evil" rather than mere stupidity (27:41).
The conversation diverges into free speech taboos (the “R word”, the “N word”), with participants discussing generational and contextual shifts in what’s considered offensive language [30:21].
A whistleblower exposed a fraud scheme in Minnesota’s social services—hundreds of millions to billions allegedly stolen, mainly tied to the Somali community (08:00).
Federal authorities discovered illegal issuance of CDLs to non-domiciled individuals; Marc Kelly threatens to withhold $30m in funding unless Minnesota resolves the issue (08:00).
The discussion quickly expands to critique multiculturalism and failed assimilation:
“These people are not Americans. They don’t care about America...these people are looking at it like, I’m here for myself and my community and you aren’t.” – Tim Pool [10:58]
Panelists argue the American social fabric is being torn, with newcomers sometimes motivated to extract value and depart—exemplified by viral stories of foreign students exploiting US systems and then leaving (11:24).
The roundtable asks whether deportation is appropriate when non-citizens commit fraud:
“If you are not a benefit to this country, get out. The idea that we owe other people from other countries to come here. It’s the stupidest thing ever.” – Tim Pool [14:59]
CK Boufferrache recounts her experience sponsoring her immigrant husband and signing agreements against welfare dependency, contrasting with perceived contemporary laxity (15:13).
The sentiment, often quoting Stephen Miller, is that mass migration imports societies, not just individuals:
“No magic transformation occurs when failed states cross borders at scale. Migrants and their descendants recreate the conditions and terrors of their broken homelands.” – Elad Eliyahu, quoting Stephen Miller [16:45]
There’s a long segment on America’s "fracturing" identity, with technological change (including AI-fueled filter bubbles and content silos) accelerating cultural breakdown [19:23].
The issue of Islamic immigration is discussed; CK asserts that assimilation is the "exception rather than the rule” for Muslims, while acknowledging some assimilate well [46:24].
Discussion of a leaked Democrat internal study revealing steep declines in voter trust—Democrats have prioritized "woke" identity issues over working-class concerns, with plummeting emphasis on jobs, economy, middle class, and responsibility ([63:06]).
“Democrats stand for nothing...you can come out and scream in the faces of liberals and Democrats and tell them please stop, they don't care." – Tim Pool [67:25]
The table critiques the party’s retreat from the working class, comparing their policies unfavorably to Republicans on issues like cost of living, economy, immigration, and crime ([63:06]).
Anecdotes from canvassing door-to-door in Oregon reveal that abortion remains a top concern above all else for many center and center-left voters, even when reminders are given that local laws are already liberal (68:45).
On “retarded” in political speech (25:36):
“I’m really offended by people who get offended by the word retarded.” – Tim Pool
On multiculturalism undermining the nation (10:58):
“These people are not Americans. They...look at it like, I’m here for myself and my community and you aren’t.” – Tim Pool
On importing societies (16:45):
“If you import the third world, you become the third world.” – Elad Eliyahu (quoting Stephen Miller)
On Democrat party drift (63:06):
“The voters want the cost of living addressed, the economy to improve, inflation to go down...the biggest issues, all money in my pocket. And they hate Democrats on those issues.” – Tim Pool
On law enforcement demoralization (88:27):
“Once we get rid of trust in law enforcement, that’s the beginning of the end of our society.” – Elad Eliyahu
On AI-powered dystopia (100:54):
"They’re going to outlaw driving, it’s going to happen...Driving will be illegal and every car will be automated and car ownership will be rare." – Tim Pool
True to Timcast IRL’s signature style, the tone is blunt, skeptical, heavily opinionated, often conspiratorial, and consistently irreverent. Guests mix humor with dire warnings, invoking both personal anecdotes ("finding caltrops in my driveway" – CK, 85:06) and dark, dystopian hypotheticals. Cultural and political lines are sharply drawn, and the conversation is unflinchingly critical of government, media, corporate America, and social decay at large.
This episode’s essential message is that America is at a critical juncture, riven by cultural conflict, loss of trust in institutions, and facing a future threatened by both divisive politics and unchecked technological change. The panel is pessimistic about both parties and the country’s trajectory, issuing a call for vigilance as America's social contract and national identity reach a breaking point.
For listeners who want unfiltered, contrarian analysis with a heavy dose of cultural pessimism and dark humor, this episode is vintage Timcast IRL.
