Donald Trump signed it. He signed the executive order declassifying the jfk, RFK and MLK files. And then with the pen, he hands it off to someone says give that to RFK Jr. And everybody was just like, dang, what a mic drop moments. So we're all getting really excited to see this. Trump said, People have been waiting for this for a very long time and we are excited too. There's also a lot of big news. Donald Trump's approval rating is plus 13. I kid you not. In his first term, he enjoyed only very briefly in his first couple of days at a 4 percentage point net approval before it flipped completely. And never, never did he achieve above water approval ratings in the first few polls to come out for the beginning of his presidency. He's enjoying. There's three polls, plus 17, plus 6 and plus, I believe 16, giving him an aggregate of plus 13. Let's see if he can maintain this. But you see, I wonder, I wonder what it is that Trump is doing that perhaps is generating such strong approval. Could it be that he's already authorized ATF and DEA to deport people? He's. The Pentagon has already confirmed they'll be using U.S. air Force aircraft to begin migrant repatriation, they call it. And we've already seen over 500 criminal illegal aliens being arrested and deported. And you've got numerous journalists embedded filming this stuff. These people are very dangerous criminals, violent offenders who are being caught. Perhaps all of that together has a lot of people cheering for Donald Trump. So we're talk about all of that, my friends. But before we do, of course, head over to cast brew.com and buy cast Brew coffee. Does Ian still have any? Ian, of course, has just 392 bags left of Ian's Graphene Dream Low Acidity coffee. And then of course you can pick up Phil Labonte's two weeks till Christmas. Let's go.

Cause usually we expect to last us six months to a year. Ian sold all of them in one month and it took us six weeks to get more and then he sold 2,000 in like two weeks. So he's almost sold 2,000. They love that coffee. So, you know, hopefully we sell it faster than we realize. But of course you can always get Appalachian Nights. That is our top seller.

Summary

Podcast Summary: Timcast IRL – "Trump Declassifies JFK Documents, Mass Deportation Raids HAVE BEGUN w/Jake Rattlesnake"

Release Date: January 24, 2025

Introduction

In this episode of Timcast IRL, host Tim Pool engages in a robust discussion with guest Jake Rattlesnake about recent significant political developments, including former President Donald Trump's executive actions and their implications. The conversation delves into Trump's unprecedented approval ratings, mass deportation efforts, interpretations of the 14th Amendment, and the challenges posed by restrictive state laws on independent contracting. Additionally, the episode touches on broader cultural and legislative issues affecting businesses and individuals.

1. Trump’s Executive Order on JFK, RFK, and MLK Documents

Timestamp: [00:29] – [13:36]

Ian Crossland introduces the episode by highlighting President Donald Trump's signing of an executive order to declassify documents related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy (JFK), Senator Robert F. Kennedy (RFK), and Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. (“MLK”). Crossland remarks:

“Donald Trump signed it. He signed the executive order declassifying the JFK, RFK, and MLK files. And then with the pen, he hands it off to someone says give that to RFK Jr. And everybody was just like, dang, what a mic drop moment.” ([00:29])

The executive order aims to bring transparency to these historical events, with Crossland expressing enthusiasm about the forthcoming revelations. The discussion includes speculation on the potential contents of these documents and their impact on public understanding of these pivotal moments in American history.

2. Trump’s Surging Approval Ratings

Timestamp: [00:29] – [25:00]

A significant portion of the episode focuses on Trump's approval ratings, which have surged to a remarkable +13 aggregate net approval. Crossland notes:

“Donald Trump's approval rating is plus 13. I kid you not. In his first term, he enjoyed only very briefly in his first couple of days at a 4 percentage point net approval before it flipped completely.” ([00:29])

The conversation explores possible reasons for this surge, including Trump's recent authorization of the ATF and DEA to commence mass deportations and the use of U.S. Air Force aircraft for migrant repatriation. Crossland suggests that these actions resonate with segments of the population concerned about illegal immigration and law enforcement, thereby boosting Trump's support.

Jake Rattlesnake adds:

“Trump is doing that now.” ([50:58])

Elad Eliyahu emphasizes the unique loyalty of Trump's base:

“No other politician has anything near the supporter base who is loyal to Donald Trump no matter what.” ([27:26])

3. Mass Deportation Efforts and Law Enforcement Actions

Timestamp: [23:40] – [51:03]

The discussion shifts to the Trump administration's aggressive stance on illegal immigration. Crossland explains the administration's use of Air Force aircraft and federal law enforcement to deport over 500 individuals, including violent offenders and gang members.

“Give that to RFK Jr. Could you imagine? This is going to be nuts.” ([08:21])

Embedded journalists from Fox News report on ICE's operations, showcasing arrests of MS-13 gang members and murder suspects. The dialogue underscores how these visible law enforcement actions contribute to Trump's high approval ratings.

Phil Labonte reinforces this point:

“I mean, this is what people elect him for. You people can make up the Democrats on X and on Blue sky, can make a whole bunch of noise…the average person that said, you know what? I want to vote for Trump, they voted for Trump knowing full well that he was going to round people up.” ([46:44])

4. Interpretation of the 14th Amendment and Birthright Citizenship

Timestamp: [35:00] – [45:38]

A critical segment of the episode examines President Trump's executive order aimed at ending birthright citizenship, which has sparked legal challenges. Crossland cites historical debates on the 14th Amendment, emphasizing that its original intent was:

“This amendment which I have offered is simply declaratory of what I regard as the law of the land already... it settles the great question of citizenship and removes all doubt as to what persons are or are not citizens of the United States.” – Jacob B. Howard ([08:09])

The panel debates the constitutional implications, with Elad Eliyahu expressing skepticism about forthcoming transparency:

“I don't think no matter what will come out from this, I don't think anybody will be satisfied.” ([12:23])

The conversation anticipates a Supreme Court review, speculating on potential rulings and their societal impacts.

5. Challenges Posed by State Laws on Independent Contracting

Timestamp: [34:00] – [111:03]

Crossland vents frustration over West Virginia's restrictive laws on independent contracting, akin to California's AB5. These laws require individuals to register as businesses or become employees, severely limiting freelance and gig work opportunities.

“It is deeply offensive because the state has recently changed and they are trying to fix the state... effectively bans individuals from working as contractors.” ([05:19])

The trio discusses the adverse effects on Timcast Media's operations, leading to considerations of relocating to more business-friendly states like Tennessee. Ian Crossland passionately states:

“So it's because technology advanced and we must get access to your tax revenue. Let me put it this way. The real reason they say for these bills in California and West Virginia is because Uber is misclassifying employees.” ([74:01])

Phil Labonte and Elad Eliyahu explore the broader implications for businesses and the economy, highlighting the undue burdens imposed by these regulations.

6. Potential Relocation and Future Plans for Timcast Media

Timestamp: [112:00] – [123:38]

Confronted with restrictive state laws, Timcast Media considers relocating its operations to states with more favorable regulatory environments. Tennessee emerges as a favored option due to its absence of income tax, growing popularity among conservatives, and lower property taxes.

“Everybody enjoyed the rules in West Virginia but now they don't want to, but this one is large and so are all other states, we're going to leave.” ([25:22])

The panel discusses logistical challenges and the strategic importance of choosing a state that aligns with their business model and political stance.

7. Audience Interaction and Super Chats

Timestamp: [96:24] – [123:38]

Throughout the episode, host Tim Pool engages with audience super chats, addressing viewer comments and questions. Topics range from the legitimacy of the deep state, the impact of shaming in cultural reform, to the complexities of legislative changes affecting immigration and contracting.

Notable audience contributions include:

Dustin Wood: “Please consider Arkansas as a state to move to...” ([117:07])
Rusty Shackelford: “Contact the state legislature and demand they repeal the gig law.” ([119:07])
Hansen Digital Motion Media: “We have no issues like this in Indiana.” ([122:09])

These interactions underscore the audience's concerns and the broader community's engagement with the topics discussed.

Conclusion

The episode concludes with reflections on the ongoing political and legislative battles shaping the United States. Tim Pool and his guests emphasize the necessity of maintaining individual freedoms, transparent governance, and the challenges posed by entrenched bureaucratic systems. As Timcast Media grapples with restrictive laws, the conversation broadens to include strategies for cultural reform and legislative advocacy to preserve entrepreneurial freedoms.
