1. Trump's Executive Order to Dismantle the Department of Education

Timestamp: [00:09] - [19:54]

The episode kicks off with a bold announcement: former President Donald Trump signs an executive order aimed at dismantling the Department of Education. Tim Pool emphasizes the significance of this move, stating:

"Donald Trump has done it, my friends. He has signed the executive order to dismantle the Department of Education." ([00:03])

Phil Labonte elaborates on the legal aspects, explaining that while only Congress can officially abolish the department, the executive order effectively cripples its functionality by halting key operations and funding:

"Trump can't end those functions, but he can mess them up real good." ([07:20])

The hosts discuss the broader implications of this action, highlighting the long-standing failures of the federal education system since its inception in 1979. Tim Pool underscores Trump's commitment to reducing government overreach:

"If you're a libertarian, Donald Trump is the most effective libertarian president we have seen since Calvin Coolidge." ([12:34])

2. Judicial Obstruction and the Emerging Constitutional Crisis

Timestamp: [19:54] - [40:01]

A significant portion of the conversation centers on the tension between the executive branch and the judiciary. Phil Labonte cites a PBS NewsHour report where Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer concedes that Democratic-appointed judges are actively working to impede Trump's initiatives:

"Democrat appointed judges are really activists who are here to stop Donald Trump." ([20:25])

The discussion delves into the mechanics of checks and balances, illustrating how the judiciary has been leveraged to block Trump's executive actions. Tim Pool argues that Trump should disregard these judicial impediments to fulfill his mandate:

"Donald Trump's going to have to issue a statement, the judge's order is unconstitutional and we will not abide." ([27:24])

The hosts debate whether this resistance signals a deeper constitutional crisis, with Phil Labonte drawing parallels to historical conflicts:

"Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus because of the conflict in this country." ([16:21])

3. Vandalism and Arson Targeting Tesla Vehicles

Timestamp: [45:00] - [79:01]

The episode transitions to a discussion on the unsettling trend of property damage targeting Tesla vehicles, which the hosts attribute to leftist extremism. Phil Labonte reports on an incident where Tesla was removed from the Vancouver International Auto Show due to safety concerns stemming from potential leftist protests:

"The Vancouver International Auto Show said its primary concern was the safety of attendees... they gave Tesla the opportunity to pull out and Tesla refused." ([45:00])

Further, Tim Pool highlights multiple instances of arson and vandalism against Teslas across various states, framing these acts as domestic terrorism fueled by political motivations:

"Cybertrucks on fire in Seattle." ([78:07])

The conversation criticizes the lack of security measures and the judicial system's delays in addressing these violent acts, with Phil Labonte emphasizing the criminal nature of such actions:

"When you set a car on fire, you should go to jail. You're a criminal." ([90:20])

4. Private Equity's Detrimental Impact on Businesses

Timestamp: [07:23] - [84:35]

Guest Tiffany Cianci provides an in-depth analysis of how private equity firms are undermining established businesses, leading to bankruptcies reminiscent of the 2008 financial crisis. She explains the concept of "back floating rate debt" and its role in destabilizing companies:

"Since the last six to eight years, private equity firms have stacked like $4 trillion in adjustable rate debt on all these companies." ([54:17])

The discussion highlights the collapse of major retailers like Joann's, Party City, and Big Lots, attributing these failures to predatory private equity practices aimed at short-term gains at the expense of long-term stability:

"If you shorted like the... So one of the things that was scary about 2008 is they repackaged the bad debt..." ([56:00])

These insights underscore a systemic issue where private equity priorities are eroding the foundation of reputable businesses, leading to widespread economic repercussions and job losses.

5. Government Overreach and Woke Culture in Education

Timestamp: [12:37] - [40:01]

The hosts critique the infiltration of "woke" ideologies within the education system, arguing that the Department of Education has become a tool for indoctrination rather than genuine education. Phil Labonte asserts:

"They're trying not to educate to teach math? No, they were saying two plus two equals five." ([16:21])

The conversation touches on controversial topics like gender identity in schools, asserting that these initiatives distract from essential educational objectives and contribute to societal division.

6. Miscellaneous Topics: Fake Ingredients and Small Business Warfare

Timestamp: [80:35] - [119:15]

The episode veers into lighter yet pertinent subjects, including the revelation that common food colorings like Carmine are derived from crushed insects. Phil Labonte shares his discovery:

"Carmine is a deep red color made from carminic acid, a natural dye derived from crushed cochineal insects." ([75:40])

Additionally, the hosts discuss the importance of small businesses in combating private equity's dominance, advocating for grassroots entrepreneurship as a means to preserve economic integrity and community values.

7. Audience Interaction and Super Chats

Engagement with the audience is a continuous element, with listeners' comments and questions integrated seamlessly into the discussion. Super Chats highlight varied topics, from advancements in robotics and AI to humorous anecdotes about chickens and Valet security. Notable interactions include:

• Shane H. Wilder suggesting a book on robotics titled "Age of Spiritual Machines".

[Phil Labonte]

It's tax season and we're all a bit tired of numbers, but here's one you need to $16.5 billion. That's how much the IRS flagged for possible identity fraud last year. Now here's a good number. 100 million. That's how many data points Lifelock monitors every second. If your identity is stolen, they'll fix it, guaranteed. Save up to 40% your first [e-mail] podcast terms apply. Donald Trump has done it, my friends. He has signed the executive order to dismantle the Department of Education. And oh, woe is us. Cries liberals. They say Trump can't do that. The Department of Education was created by an act of Congress and only an act of Congress can be rid of it. But there is something interesting about Congress creating executive branches that are controlled by the President. He can effectively dismantle them by instructing all extraneous activities to be shut down and pulling their funding. So while Congress does mandate, certain functions must be done, and it is Trump's job to carry those things out. He chooses how they are carried out effectively. There's. There will still be a Department of Education. Maybe Congress will actually try to dismantle it. Definitely won't get past the filibuster. So Trump's just gonna say, we're gonna rip it to shreds and it's gonna function miserably. Miserably. It's huge, guys. For those that have been tracking this stuff, we've had a Department of education since 1979 and our, our test scores have fallen. This unified federal education system has failed. I am a huge opponent of the public school system. I think it's miserable and awful. So I'm really excited about this. The states should be figuring these things out. And this will allow individuals to make the determination of which school is right for them better than we do now. Not to mention all the weird woke stuff where they're like, if you don't have this thing in your school, you're not getting funding or other programs like that. Goodbye. So I'm excited for this. We'll talk about that then. We've got a bunch of other stories. Pam Bondi's announced several arrests. Elon Musk Tesla has been booted from an auto show out of fears of terrorism. The auto show is concerned that protests might happen. Yeah, but nobody's really concerned about an old lady waving a sign. They're concerned about the fire bombings and the public shootings have been going on. Rick Wilson, you know him. You love him. Lincoln Project guy claims to be a conservative. He's permanently suspended from X because he called for. He called for terrorism. I'm not exaggerating. He wrote. He wrote a substack article where he literally said attack. He. I'm not. I don't really want to use the language he used because I think YouTube might take issue with it, but there's. There's no mince in words here. He basically, he posted a picture of an exploded flaming cybertruck and said, attack. And that this is our chance to stop Elon Musk, blah, blah, blah. And then this is where we are. So we'll talk about that. And then, I don't know, maybe some more chill news. Snow White, you guys, it's so woke. You're going to hate this, but you're going to laugh at the same time. Seems like they put too much into it. The. Apparently the story now is that Snow White's skin is not as white as snow. Her name is Snow White because it was snowing. Indeed. She doesn't meet a prince. She meets a ragtag group of bandits. Not seven dwarves. But she eventually does meet seven dwarfs. I guessed. So they put the stories together where she meets a ragtag band of merry men in the forest. And, you know, this movie ain't Snow White. That's Disney for you. So we're gonna do all that before we do smash that, like, button. Share the show we got. We want to shout out Rumble. Guys, you should download the Rumble app. If you haven't already.

So smash the like button. Share the show with everyone you know. Joining us tonight, our guest didn't show up. I'm not kidding. And we only found out like 20 minutes ago that they weren't coming. So I'll refrain from getting specific. I don't, I don't, I don't need to roast anybody I guess, but we do have a couple. So we reached out to a bunch of people and we were like, hey, we need a last minute fill in. Normally we do not fill in, do fill ins this late but you know.

[Tim Pool]

We didn't know that it was going to happen.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, exactly. Like usually when we get cancellations they at least tell us an hour beforehand and then we've got people who live in the area who typically come down and join the show. But we reached out to Tiffany Ciancian who is a tick tock personality conservative and we also reached out to Cody McIntyre who's a world renowned professional skateboarder and you know, I don't know his political leanings but, but he's got, he had, he had a Gadsden flag mini ramp so he's, it's good enough. And then we were just like guys, can you come? We don't know who's going to make it. And they both said yes and I said okay, they'll both come but neither are here. So Raymond's here.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Hey, what's up guys? I am excited to be here on Tim's point of YouTube not notifying people. You know, I've been, I've been staunch super chat king forever and I'VE been unsubscribed from the YouTube, but. And I don't get notifications. But when I've joined Rumble, I've doing the. Oh, what? The whole morning lineup now, Tim, I be in notifications all the time. So I would suggest you guys go the Rumble because that's the way to go and you have great lineups and I hang out and I see the quartering afterwards.

[Phil Labonte]

The, the morning show is, is now rivaling or even beating Tim Cast irl, which is how it used to be back in the day.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah. Anyways, I'm a blue collar guy. I am a common sense revolutionary. Mr. Phil.

[Tim Pool]

Hello, everybody. My name is Phil Levante. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band all that Remains. I'm an anti communist and a counter revolutionary. So let's get started.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm sure we'll have some guests arriving any minute now.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I can't wait to.

[Phil Labonte]

But hey, let's talk about the news. So from Huffington, the EO Trump signs executive order to dismantle the Department of Education. Congress would need to act to fully eliminate the critical agency. The critical agency Trump could still stop many of its key functions. President Trump signed an executive order on Thursday that calls for the Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, to begin the process of shutting down the Department of Education. In the late afternoon, Trump announced his administration would return education back to the States. I was, I was hanging out with the family.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And we were watching the signing. I have the video for you. We'll play it. Here we go. And Allison, he's my wife, said, who's. Who's that lady? And I was like, that's Linda McMahon. And she's like, who is she? And I was like, the wife of Vince McMahon.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Is that accurate?

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. And then she was like, who's that? And I was like, you know, the guy from wwe. And then she started, Allison started busting out laughing. And then she laughed the whole time she watched the ceremony. And I was like, welcome to President Trump. Oh, I got it. Do we got no sound on this one? That's my fault. That's my fault. I mute Twitter because it autoplays historic action that was 45 years in the making. In a few moments, I will sign an executive order to begin eliminating the federal Department of Education once and for all. Today. We take. There you go. That's from Rapid Response 47. So basically, here's how it's going to work. The. The executive order that he signed is basically a plan. It's instruction for. For the head of the Department of Education, Secretary of Education, to basically start. Well, basically start shutting it down. The way it works is Congress passed the. The Department of Education Organization act in 1979, which requires several things to be accomplished. Trump can't end those functions, but he can mess them up real good. So you may remember back when marijuana was still illegal in the 2000s, and the DEA was raiding pot shops across the country, notably in California, you had. This is. This is before Obama. Actually, in California, you had a bunch of different pot shops where California said, yo, Potts legal, and the DEA still rated them. So Barack Obama was like, we're not going to enforce this. Now, hold on. Congress passed a law saying you can't have marijuana. And Barack Obama said, I'm the president. I ain't gonna instruct any of my guys to enforce that law. That is how the executive branch checks the legislative branch. You see, there's this thing called checks and balances. The judicial branch issues rulings, says you can't do that. Legislative branch can pass laws saying, here's what you gotta do. An executive branch can choose to not do things. It works out pretty well. In this instance, Trump is going to basically tell the Department of Education, stop doing things and stop giving people money. So the core functions that need to be done technically could be done, but if he's only doing it at about 1% of what's supposed to be done, he's still technically doing it. And the argument from Trump is, once this executive order goes through and we begin the process of dismantling it, Congress will eventually act to shut the whole thing down. I'm not entirely convinced, but we're at a wartime presidency. Presidency right now. And so. And I mean that. I hope people are paying attention to what's going on with the stories that we have right now. I don't know what to expect from Trump, but this is not a typical administration. This is not a typical opposition. Chuck Schumer goes on TV saying they intentionally put in judges to block to. They set up judges intentionally so that they could launch lawsuits against the administration and get injunctions every step of the way. This is not about what is constitutional or what Trump can do. It is about Democrats going to war administratively with Trump, and now Trump is going to have to operate similarly. So there you go.

[Tim Pool]

It's going to war against, you know, against the will of the American people. The president was elected with a mandate. People knew what they were getting. People knew that he was gonna create doge. People knew that he was going to go after the bureaucracy. People knew that he was going to try to, quote, unquote, drain the swamp. This is all in line with what he promised and what he was elected to do. And there's one other thing that I wanna point out. If you're a libertarian, if you have libertarian leanings, Donald Trump is the most effective libertarian president we have seen since Calvin Coolidge, possibly since the actual founders. Right? This is. This administration has put more effort into shrinking the government and cutting waste than any other administration definitely in my lifetime, probably any administration in the whole of the 20th century. So people that are, you know, that are saying, oh, I would want Donald Trump to do the. If you're a libertarian, that we're saying, I want Donald Trump to do this, to do that, et cetera. Give him time. This is far more cuts and more effort put into shrinking the government than. Than I think that I've definitely seen in my lifetime, you know, and it's something that everybody that voted for Donald Trump knew that they were going to be getting when they voted.

[Phil Labonte]

You know what, Phil? School sucks.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, it does.

[Phil Labonte]

Everybody thinks.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Fun to hang out sometimes when you're in school.

[Phil Labonte]

No, no, that's not school. Let's hang out. Like if you gave me a big empty building and said, hey, you want to go hang out for a little bit? Sounds great. We'll skate. I can skateboard in a big empty building. Hey, we got one of those. But if you say that you're going to sit in a room where some apathetic government employee is going to yell at you and tell you that boys are girls and girls are boys, that's awful.

[Tim Pool]

And schools nowadays, they're not designed, in fact, not even nowadays, for a long time, they haven't been designed to actually teach people important things that they need to know. How many times have you heard people say, you know, I didn't learn how to balance my checkbook, or I didn't learn about how our financial system works, or I didn't learn how I should actually save money. Money. The schools that were set up in. Or the way schools are set up in the, you know, what, 40s and 50s and stuff, they became a way to get people ready to work in an industrialized society that no longer exists with the bells to change classes and.

[Phil Labonte]

And, I mean, that's dumb anyway.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, it's dumb.

[Phil Labonte]

Remember back in the 50s when kids brought their guns to school?

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And they had rifle classes and shooting.

[Phil Labonte]

What was that? What was that shooting in Texas at the, like the bell tower or whatever you Remember that one, the college? And then a bunch of people who had guns ran out to try and fired at him. Suppress the shooter. Yeah, because back in the day kids would bring their rifles to target like to. Back in my day you had that at school.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I lived in the woods. You have it in the truck? They're sitting up in the truck. You can have the. Right.

[Phil Labonte]

You'd go to school with the rifle. Did they have rifle class?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No, we did not. But we were big hunting community. We lived in the woods, schools, used.

[Phil Labonte]

To have rifle class.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

In my high school in Idaho in 2008, 2009 had. Really?

[Tim Pool]

That's not that long ago.

[Phil Labonte]

30 years ago, 20 years. I was an adult man at that time.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tim Pool]

I mean I was in, I was in high school in the late 80s and early 90s and like there were like, I lived in Massachusetts suburbs and stuff. But if you had a gun, if you had like a rifle in your, in your truck or whatever, no one was going to would have a. Would even think that there was going to be a problem that's so far outside of anyone's mind and talking about learning stuff.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They don't do trade classes anymore. No, they don't do anything that's useful to like, you know, Tim, I heard you ran today about college or every day about how college can be useless. They don't teach how to build anything, how to use screwdrivers, how to use drill guns, how to do mechanics, how to work on your screwdriver.

[Tim Pool]

It's mostly useless.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I've heard that before.

[Phil Labonte]

You know what's funny is that I went to Catholic school for a few years and it was private and it was expensive. And then when I started sixth grade, I switched to public school. Wow. Is it night and day? The funny thing is though, and what the woke have been trying to do, what the left has been trying to do through the department of Education and through public schooling is essentially indoctrinate people to their, their religion. They don't understand, you know, like when Sam Cedar was in a debate with Eleazar Perez, he does not comprehend what religion is. You know, in his mind he's got like an 8th grade understanding of the word religion. He thinks it means like fairy tale, you know, fairy tale rules or whatever instead of moral traditions and, and, and things like that. So when you look at what the left is trying to implement through wokeness in schools, the reason why you see all these videos of teachers with, you know, pride flags and BLML stuff, they are trying not to Educate to teach math? No, they were saying two plus two equals five. What they're trying to do is act like churches for young people to create a generation of ideologically aligned cultists. And Trump is dismantling that now with crushing the Department of Education. They're going to resist. Judges will tell Trump no. But as I stated already, we're in this is wartime presidency.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Feels like it.

[Phil Labonte]

It is. And I don't. Look, I think the right is full of naive people. The left has been waging administrative warfare and, and kinetic warfare for a decade, from the. The riots. I mean, go back to when Donald Trump and Donald Trump's first term, the Berkeley riots. The far left shows up and threw explosives at old ladies. Terrorism. They had IEDs. Watch the videos of this stuff. A guy came out with a bike lock and bashed several people over the head with it. This was overt terror. That was 2017 and 18. And you had these riots all throughout Trump, Trump's first term. You end up with a Summer of Love riots. Then you end up administratively. They're accusing Trump of being a Soviet agent and spy, trying to imprison and impeach and convict him. When that failed, they tried seizing his properties in New York. There was two assassination attempts on his life there. We had the Summer of Love rights, as I mentioned. You had the killing of Aaron Danielson. The left has been waging con, like whatever you want to call it, conflict, war, whatever, from the ground all the way to the highest levels of government for nearly a decade now. For eight or so years today, Donald Trump, acting within his purview under the, under Article 2 of the Constitution, is being barred from carrying out actions he's legally allowed to take by judges making unconstitutional decrees. And when Trump says what they say, how dare you, Trump? You are causing a constitutional crisis. Yet many people on the right are still like, no, no, we can't, we can't. We can't do these things. There's a question now for Donald Trump. Is he going to ignore the courts, which were propped up intentionally to shut down his administration, or is he going to act like a wartime president, like Abraham Lincoln, and say, we are going to get the job done? And. And I'm not. I'm not saying to do anything illegal. I'm saying Donald Trump's going to have to issue a statement, the judge's order is unconstitutional and we will not abide. That's it. And then carrot his duties. It will be incumbent upon the judges and Democrats to figure out how they're going to take action against Trump. The only problem is the judicial branch has no enforcement mechanism against the executive. The legislative branch is controlled by the Republicans and likely will not act against Trump. Therefore, the right now, as the public has voted, the judges can do nothing.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, and I think, I agree. I think that the, Donald Trump needs to ignore, in my opinion, I think that Donald Trump should just ignore these, these, you know, whatever you call it, the, the rogue judges by the judges, the, the Democrat establishment or Chuck Schumer. He's made it clear that the point is to prevent Donald Trump from doing the things that, again, I've said this before he was elected to do. This isn't a surprise. The American people, when they voted for Donald Trump, were voting for Doge. They were voting to drain the swamp. They were voting to get rid of the bureaucracy. They knew what they were doing. When they voted for Donald Trump, he won with 77 million votes. He clearly beat Kamala Harris. He won all of the swing states. He won the Electoral College and he won the popular vote. The Republicans won all the whole, the, the Congress and the Senate. This is not something where it is in question as to whether or not the American people have, have. It's not what they signed up for.

[Phil Labonte]

You should ignore the judges, but it doesn't matter. None of it matters. You're not going to convince leftists. That's why. But no, no, no, this is the point. You're not going to convince leftists. You don't need to convince the right. And people in the middle road are largely just concerned with the economy. So what's going to happen now is an escalation between two factions. Let's jump to this next story, which basically breaks it down. I will say I'm actually kind of surprised no one's gotten here yet. You know, Cody was. Oh yeah, Cody was out the door 20, 40 minutes ago. Anyway, let's, I know, right? We got this.

[Tim Pool]

Let's go.

[Phil Labonte]

Here's the, here's the story. We got this from PBS NewsHour, posted by Libs of TikTok. Chuck Schumer admits the quiet part out loud. Democrat appointed judges are really activists who are here to stop Donald Trump. There are those who believe that we are in real time living through an assault on the constitutional order. Do you believe that we are in a constitutional crisis right now? Yes. Our democracy is at risk because Donald Trump shows that he wishes to violate the laws in many, many different ways. The good news here is we did put 235 judges, progressive judges, judges not under the control of Trump last year on the bench. And they are ruling against Trump time after time after time. And we hope that the appellate courts, when it gets up there and the Supreme Court will uphold those rulings. They restored the money to NIH. They required that 8,000 federal employees have to come back. We're in over 100 lawsuits against them, and we are having a good deal of success. It's only at the lower court level right now.

[Tim Pool]

Ignore.

[Phil Labonte]

This is. This is it. This is, I would call it America's.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Last stand.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, I wasn't gonna say last stand. That's kind of a brutal way to put it. I was gonna say I'm imagining more of, like a reignition. You see, what Chuck Schumer represents and what these progressive judges represent is a bureaucratic blob. That's what Mike Benz calls. He calls it the blob. It's this machine of consumption. It's. What are its ends? What are its goals? Global dominance under a bland, gray, gruel, flavorless society. Donald Trump represents America, and what he is doing is dismantling the mechanisms of government overreach, as the people have requested that he do. The blob, the deep state, the bureaucratic state, have put in place judges to rule against Trump. What's the. What's the quote from Andy Jackson? I have seen their ruling this.

[Tim Pool]

The. The chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.

[Phil Labonte]

That's right. So what we have here is, as Libs of TikTok puts it, Chuck Schumer admitting the quiet part out loud. Democrats appointed these judges with the intent to obstruct Donald Trump. The only issue is, as it goes with checks and balances, let's play the game. Congress passes a law and they say, we believe people who do this thing should be arrested. They pass it to the executive branch. From now on, enforce this law. Here's your check. Donald Trump says, no, I'm not going to enforce that law. That law is unconstitutional, and that's it. The law does not get enforced. It gets checked. When Barack Obama wasn't going after sending the D. A to go raid some of these, these pot shops, who's complaining? Not the potheads. Nobody who voted for Obama. They were like, good, don't enforce it. But hold on, Congress never passed that. They never legalized it. What about daca? DACA was basically Obama saying, we will not enforce the law against this group of people, even though Congress said to do it. Now, let's say Congress passes a law and Donald Trump says, we're going to enforce It. How do you check the executive? It's called the judiciary. You sue the executive. When you have standing, you go to court, you win. And the court rules. Executive branch must stop. Typically, that check is enough. Right now, however, you have Donald Trump taking executive action as he was elected to do. The judiciary is attempting to block him. The check on the judiciary would be Congress codifying in law and clarifying that what Trump is doing is not allowed. So under the Alien Enemies Act, Donald Trump is deporting criminals. The judiciary says, hold on, you can't do this. Congress is going to have to act to check the executive or side, you know, basically take their position. Only problem is the options for checking from legislative branch are pass a law or impeach the president for high crimes and misdemeanors. If he's, if he's violating his oath, the Constitution, Congress ain't going to be doing that. And so what do we get? Donald Trump is going to look at the courts and say, enforce it. What up, Cody Mack? We have a guest.

[Tim Pool]

We have one.

[Phil Labonte]

We made it.

[Tim Pool]

Hello, sir. Good to see you.

[Phil Labonte]

Who are you? What do you do? Grab the mic and pull it towards your mouth.

[Cody McIntyre]

My name is Cody McIntyre. I'm a.

[Tim Pool]

And he saves the day.

[Phil Labonte]

Professional skateboarder extraordinaire. I. E. Broken, homeless.

[Cody McIntyre]

Used to be.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, no, I'm just ribbon. I'm saying skateboarding is done. It's fried.

[Cody McIntyre]

The. Yeah. I feel like the industry is not necessarily dead or the culture is not dead, but I feel like the industry is dying.

[Phil Labonte]

The industry is gone, my friend. Anyway, we're just talking about how Trump is a wartime president and the administrative state is now trying to obstruct the last opportunity of the populist movement to. Well, I guess is what Raymond called it. The last stand.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Feels like it at this point in time.

[Phil Labonte]

I kind of don't feel like it's the last stand because that implies that if Trump doesn't get it all done today, like in this term, then we lose.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Well, this, maybe if this term goes sour. And next, the judges I want to ask about, they're all from D.C. right? All these guys who are giving.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm pretty sure they're all D.C. judges.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah. So can we have other judges who are not D.C. like, check them. Judges. Judges. So why. Why aren't they doing that?

[Phil Labonte]

You know, to be honest, I don't think it matters because as we just pointed out, Trump simply going to be. I hope he does. I seriously hope Trump comes out and goes, I have heard Judge Ray's ruling on the transgender military ban. Issuing the preliminary injunction now. She may enforce it.

[Tim Pool]

I've instructed the Secretary of Defense to ignore it, period. And SecDef would. The.

[Phil Labonte]

He's not running for reelection. What does he care?

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, I mean, look, the. Just, just like Senator, Senator Schumer said. Right. The point is to impose their will on the American people. And that's. He talks about a constitutional crisis. This is the constitutional crisis, not what Donald Trump is doing because again, he was elected by the, the electorate to do these things. Everyone knew what they were voting for.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yep.

[Tim Pool]

So the constitutional crisis comes from the fact that they're trying to prevent him from doing things through the judiciary. So I do think that the, the Congress needs to pass laws to, to enshrine these executive orders into law. So that way they, if that. And if they did, that would circumvent the judiciary. I don't know if there's enough, if they'd have enough votes to do it. I think that they probably wouldn't House, but I'm not sure that they would in, in the Senate, but that's the proper process. But the fact that the judiciary is just standing in the way, I, I think he should ignore him. He should instruct the, his, you know, the, the agency.

[Phil Labonte]

It's sounding like that's what's going to happen.

[Tim Pool]

I hope he should. He really should.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And they're lower courts, like you were telling me a couple days ago. They're not actual federal. I mean, maybe federal, but. Yeah, they're not, but they're not like, they don't mean ish. Like they're worried.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, the issue comes from Donald Trump's orders on the military. Yet it's, it's, it's insane that a judge, I kid you not. I don't know if you heard this one, Cody. A judge ruled any and everyone must be allowed to enlist in the military. So this means someone tweeted schizophrenic. Schizophrenic paraplegics are now eligible for military service.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I have no arms.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah, walk right into this one, huh? First thing we talk about.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Welcome.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I think anybody that wants to should be able to serve their country. But I do think that there's schizophrenic, that's, there's limitations for a reason. I mean, I'm a towering 5 foot 4. I don't necessarily fit the bill for a lot of firefighters.

[Phil Labonte]

You can't join. No. Joining the military if you're under five, five Five.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah. Maybe we just make a. Make a rule like that.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They used to have tattoos. You couldn't have gang tattoos back in the day. Maybe probably still today.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And flat feet. They don't let people join for that reason.

[Tim Pool]

You couldn't join in. In 1993, you couldn't join at all. If you had any tattoos, you could get them when you were in, but if you had tattoos, they wouldn't take you. And that. I mean, now that's gang tattoos.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Well, you could be out of the gang. One of the guys got. He had a waiver. He had to get a waiver to get in because he had. Get some gangs tattoo. You know, people grow out of that.

[Phil Labonte]

Cover him up.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No, he still had it. But they. They.

[Phil Labonte]

He.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

A judge said, okay, we're one of them people. One of the military folks said, okay, you're allowed in.

[Phil Labonte]

How do they know that he's not still in the gang?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They don't.

[Phil Labonte]

Right. Like, homie, he's got a big Ms. 13. And he's like, I ain't in Ms.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Well, there's other gangs besides Ms. 13.

[Phil Labonte]

No, but. I know. But, yeah, there was a big news report that there are MSR team members in the military and in Afghanistan, there's MSRT and graffiti. Like, their allegiance is not to this country. Yeah. And I feel like if someone's got a tattoo, you could be like, get the tattoo removed.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Sure. But still, you could have. Okay, they have waivers. Maybe the waivers. You can get it removed. We'll let you in the military. But he turned out to be a captain in the Navy, so it turned out all well.

[Phil Labonte]

All right. Well, I'm just saying this. A judge put an injunction on Trump's transgender military ban. The issue I take with this is that Trump's the commander in chief. He determines who's. Who's going to serve him as commander in chief.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yes.

[Phil Labonte]

And a judge is like, nah, you got to. You got to bring these people in, and you've got to give them sex change, surgeries and treatments.

[Tim Pool]

It's insane.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, the issue is it's the only DSM 5 mental disorder that is affirmed. So, for example, anorexia and bulimia disqualify you from military service. The judge's ruling said that if somebody is bulimic and wants to be affirmed in their bulimia, they must be allowed. Come on. What do you think would happen if you're in basic training and a guy just slams a ridiculous amount of food and then barfs at all?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And then they Were like, we have to let him do it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I don't know that tiktoker. I keep less of my brought up one time. She's very thin. She's a very famous tiktoker. They would have to let her in.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

She'd have to become in the military and let her.

[Phil Labonte]

She needs medical intervention.

[Cody McIntyre]

So are they saying that nobody with tattoos is allowed in the military or that's what they're.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. The ruling now is that anybody's.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Anybody.

[Cody McIntyre]

Okay, okay.

[Phil Labonte]

That's right. Even you at 54 are welcome in.

[Cody McIntyre]

I might have a little bit on you, Tim.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, it's remarkable that the, the commander in chief of the armed forces is being told by a lower court judge, here's who you have to have in your military. And it was crazy because it was like, you cannot violate the civil rights.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

The.

[Phil Labonte]

What it says the Constitution says all. Or what is it, the Declaration, all people are created equal and all means all. And then someone, someone tweeted, now's your chance if you're a schizophrenic paraplegic to join the military because they have to let you in.

[Tim Pool]

That's just saying that we should do away with standards and that's absolutely insane. The idea that you should do away with a minimum standard means that there's absolutely no way to ensure that people are capable of doing the job. There's no way to ensure that people that are, that are not capable are removed from jobs. And this in the military means people die. There's no two ways about it. There has to be a minimum standard and everyone has to be held to that standard.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's jump to the next story, which is just another portion of this story. Check this out from the New York Times. Administration officials believe the order lets them. Lets immigration agents enter homes without warrants. It remains unclear whether the Trump administration will apply the law this way. But such an interpretation, experts say, would infringe on basic civil liberties. Trump admin lawyers have determined that an 18th century wartime law the president has invoked to deport suspected members of a Venezuelan gang allows federal agents to enter homes without a warrant, according to people familiar with the internal discussions. The first thing I'm going to say is, I don't believe you. New York Times. This is far fetched. Naming nobody and the even the title is ridiculous. But I still find it to be interesting because the conversation we've been having, the conversation I've been having with myself since yesterday and now with my friends, is Is Trump now a wartime president? And I don't mean literal like World War II. What I'm saying is Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus because of the conflict in this country. Are we in or entering a period where Donald Trump will have to act as a wartime president? Let me say this. I don't like the idea that Donald Trump is going to kick in someone's door. Not him, actually. Be hilarious. It was him personally. He walks up and it's just him. But the idea that he's going to send cops or immigration to a house, they're going to kick the door in and say, we don't need a warrant because you're harboring criminal illegal aliens or whatever, that sounds like a really bad idea. And that's why I've been saying since last year, even the year before, if Trump wants to implement deportations, it's got to be a guy in a polo shirt and khakis with a belt on and a clipboard knocking on a door and then taking people to a nice, you know, little van with only a couple people in it where they can go for deportation. None of this. Military vehicles. No, none of this. You know, like, putting them in detention centers on the border. You have to be very, very careful how this is done. I don't want to see law enforcement thinking they can enter homes without warrants. That's insane.

[Cody McIntyre]

That's a slippery slope, man. Yeah, that's a real slippery slope. I mean, I understand, like, being over here illegally, you kind of forfeit your rights that a normal American citizen would have, but I still think just entering a home in general without any sort of consent or a warrant, that's. That makes me uncomfortable.

[Phil Labonte]

What if there is a terrorist in that home?

[Cody McIntyre]

I mean, again, I can't definitively say what. What I think should be what happened, but I just think it's a little sort of what if.

[Phil Labonte]

What if there is a known terrorist who is being pursued by law enforcement, and he runs inside of a house and locks the door, and as the law enforcement turn the corner, there's a bunch of people outside with their hands on their heads, and they're like, he just ran in that house.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Can they go in, then wait for.

[Tim Pool]

Him to come out?

[Phil Labonte]

Well, isn't that. Yeah.

[Tim Pool]

Stake. I mean, stake it out.

[Phil Labonte]

I honestly think, legally, if cops are in pursuit of a wanted criminal, and the guy turns the corner and then enters a house, and the police turn the corner and everyone's pointing at the house. He just went inside. He just went inside. Pretty sure that's probable cause, and they can enter the building. Exigent circumstances.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, I mean, that. That wouldn't be. And it wouldn't be a problem to get, you know, again, make sure that the. The house is locked down, Call up a judge, get a warrant, Be like, yo, people say that he went in there. We were following him. We think he's in there. Give us a warrant. The judge can issue a warrant. Real.

[Phil Labonte]

I don't think they did it.

[Tim Pool]

Maybe not.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm pretty sure if there are witnesses who said, we just watched a man enter that house. So when we got swatted, the cops were like, we don't need a warrant. Exigent circumstances. And I said, the hell you don't. You can't come in my house. And they were like, tell it to a judge. And they walked in. They didn't literally say tell it to a judge. They were like, we don't need your permission, and we're going in your house. And I was like, well, I. I reject this. I. I oppose this, and I deny permission. And they went in anyway because I don't want them walking through my house.

[Cody McIntyre]

I mean, I think in the terrorist scenario, if it's black and white like you said, like, it's easy to say, yeah, you should totally be able to go into the house or enter. Enter into the house and grab the. The suspect. But this is kind of shades of gray here. Like, what other people are in the house? Who really knows what's going on? I feel like that's why all of these standoffs happen quite a bit of the time. So. Yeah, I mean, in. In Tim's, like, perfect scenario. Yeah, the guy runs in. He's the only one in there, for sure. Go in and get the guy. I think that's fine. But I think, like, when these things actually play out, like I said, it's a little bit more gray than just. Or a little. Yeah, a little bit more gray than, like, what do we actually.

[Phil Labonte]

Here's the challenge. I don't disagree with you. The challenge is, over the past four years, we've had more people into this country illegally than at any point in the history of this country. And some actually have argued that it is one of the largest mass migrations of humans in the history of humanity. So it is. It's in the top five. The partition of India and Pakistan may be much bigger, but that was actually one big body, and that was split. This is people coming from all over the world and entering United States with estimates ranging from, like, 10 to 20 million. This is apocalyptic for a culture, for a country, for an economy. Donald Trump says, I'm elected with immigration as the number two issue, and I need to enforce the law. And we must deport the worst of the worst criminal, terroristic, illegal migrants, people who are in prison, gangs. Now, as Joe Biden violated the Constitution and did all of the worst things imaginable. There's a. There's a guy in Arizona. Was it Arizona where the rancher got arrested?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, the old dude. Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

So people are crossing onto his property. He claims that. I think what he said, they were shooting at him or something.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

He thought they were.

[Phil Labonte]

He heard gunshots, so he goes out there and I think he admitted he shot a guy illegally. Trespassing and breaking into the country, went to prison. So when it comes to Joe Biden and his administration taking away our rights and assisting in the destruction of this country, oh, boy, let me lay it out for you. When they put up shipping containers to block the barrier, they ordered them taken down. When the Texas National Guard put it, put up concertina wire, the feds came in and said, don't you dare defy us. Let these people in. And when CBP under Joe Biden knew they were trafficking children into sex slavery, they did it with smiles on their faces.

[Tim Pool]

Let it happen.

[Phil Labonte]

And we all watch that happen. But because it wasn't personal to us, we say it's a bad thing that must be stopped. And the liberals say, we like it. Now the shoe is on the other foot. Donald Trump is the president and these criminals got to go. Now, what we hear is, and I mean no disrespect when I say this, but now what we hear is, we cannot be like Biden, meaning we are going to have to be constrained with our hands tied behind our backs. And the criminals and the sex slavers who are brought into this country, oh, boy, we might not be able to remove all of them. So this is what I mean by wartime presidency, Joe Biden. And I'm going to say it again, ask Dr. Phil. Don't take my word for it. Dr. Phil on the View said he interviewed CBP agents. The videos publicly watched. CBP agents say this. The head of the union, children are brought in with numbers on their arms or hands. CBP knows these are sex slavery rings for children, and they were instructed to allow them in. So when Donald Trump says, I am going to go above and beyond to get these criminals out of this country, what we end up hearing is, oh, man, we. We can't. We can't do these things now. Don't get me wrong, I don't want feds or cops kicking in any doors without warrants. Screw that. But at the very least, when it comes to Trump putting these criminals on airplanes and saying, see you later, the judges are trying to stop him from doing it. That's what I mean by wartime. President, is Trump going to say, here's what you did, and my justification is everything I just said, or are we going to sit back and say, no, no. Joe Biden and the Democrats, Schumer, they did untold evils and we're going to tolerate it because our Constitution says we have to.

[Tim Pool]

No, we. I think that it's, I think that that, like I said, Donald Trump has a mandate. And I think that the, the fact that there are people trying to, you know, judges trying to interpose themselves means that it, you, you have to have. It's extenuating circumstances. And, and there has to be some way.

[Phil Labonte]

Welcome to hell.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, I mean, it's not, it's not, believe me, it's not something that, that, that I'm excited about. But you've had the left behaving outside, you know, doing things outside of the law, and people have been making excuses for it and accepting it. Now that the Republicans have the power, it's time to use it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I've for many years been preaching fire with fire. I might have calmed down kind of a little bit, but I doubt it. But Trump needs to stand up.

[Phil Labonte]

Literally.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

It's been an invasion, which is an intrusion and encroachment, which we've had the last couple years. So we're definitely getting invaded, and we can't. If we want to save America and have a good culture, we just can't let up. These millions of people come in here, break our laws, and just do what they want to do. That makes zero sense. How do they have free play?

[Phil Labonte]

Welcome to hell. I don't like because, because the issue is it wasn't started by Trump. What we've seen over the past several years in the Biden administration, how do we tolerate. And I think it's the most egregious of crimes that our law enforcement officers in CBP were knowingly sending children to sex slavery. I'll say it a 50 million times, because they did, and the head of the CBP union said it. There are numerous independent reporters who went down there and have talked about how this is going on. We know Donald Trump knows the coyotes. They, they take young girls, they rape them as part of the, part of their human smuggling operation.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

James O'KEEFE had that one gentleman and he got in trouble for. For. That's right, Beans.

[Phil Labonte]

That's right. And. And this whole time this is happening, was there a conversation of, oh, no, the Constitution is being violated? Well, sure. On our side. So when Donald Trump comes to respond to this, the only answer is, boy, I tell you what, you guys should watch the Patriot with Mel Gibson. You ever see that one? I need to rewatch it because Mel Gibson says, it's such a good movie. It is the best movie. Have you seen the Patriot with Mel Gibson?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, yeah, we're watching the big screen.

[Phil Labonte]

You should put it on me.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Yes, we should. They're having a meeting of the Constitution. It's a constitutional convention. Should we declare war? And he says, no, no, no. And they were like, so what would you have us do? The king basically keeps trampling our rights. And he says, petition the king. We've tried that. It doesn't work. It was petition again and again and again. That. That plea feels so much to me like what Republicans and people on the right have been doing for a decade. Just keep pleading, keep petitioning somebody who has no intention of listening to what you have to say. But then he makes another great point. He says, mark my words, this war will not be fought on some far away battlefield. It'll be fought in front of your homes and your children will learn of it with their own eyes. So the issue now is, you may not have asked for what Joe Biden did to this country, but if we want to see Donald Trump use his authority to deport people and uphold the law, shut down these corrupt institutions like usaid, they are going to continue waging war administratively against him. And Trump's option is going to have to be. Your words mean nothing to me because I've seen. Well, it can go the trope. Your booze mean nothing. I've seen what makes you cheer. But in all serious, your rulings mean nothing because I've seen what you ruled for and against.

[Tim Pool]

Step into the world of power, loyalty and luck.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm going to make him an offer well he can't refuse.

[Tim Pool]

With family.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Cannolis and spins mean everything.

[Phil Labonte]

Now you want to get mixed up in the family business. Introducing the [e-mail] test your luck in the shadowy world of the Godfather slot. Someday I will call upon you to.

[Tim Pool]

Do a service for me.

[Phil Labonte]

Play the Godfather [e-mail] Welcome to the family. No purchase necessary VGW Group void We're prohibited by law 21 plus, terms and conditions apply.

[Tim Pool]

Yep.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Base.

[Tim Pool]

I mean, the. Yeah, I mean, I don't, I don't have a whole lot more to add. It's like just the, the. This is. We've been here for a long time. The left has been using tax money to, to you with USAID to install the, the policies they want. NGOs have been, you know, abusing the, the American people and, and abusing our. The, the financial system that we have, the, the funding system that we have, and it's time for it to stop. And you're. We should ignore the people on the left in the same way that the people on the left ignored people on the right. They're going to act this way. They're going to say, oh, Donald Trump is this and that Donald Trump is so bad, he's Hitler, blah, blah, blah. That is nothing new. This is all of the same tropes they've been saying for the past 10, 12 years or whatever. Ignore them and exercise power because you have it. Because they were doing it. Yes, they were doing it while they had power. Joe Biden tried to tweet an amendment into the Constitution.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's right.

[Tim Pool]

He straight up said, oh, yeah, by the way, the ERA is now a thing. Even though it clearly wasn't. There was, it was ridiculous that he even tried it. And there were multiple people in Congress and in the administration that were echoing the, the tweet that he made trying to convince people that an amendment had been put into the Constitution that didn't get ratified. So ignore them, run over them, because right now, the Republicans have the power. Donald Trump has the power, and he has the authority to do these things.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's jump to the story from Fox News. Hey, look at that. Tesla booted from Vancouver International Auto show over safety of attendees terrorism. Vancouver International Auto show said its primary concern was the safety of attendees, exhibitors and staff. Well, I don't think we really need to go into much more about that. They said that they gave Tesla the opportunity to pull out and Tesla refused, and so they are now booting them from the show. Why? Because the far left is engaged in widespread acts of terrorism. And now there is a concern that if Tesla vehicles are at the auto show, there will be terrorism at the auto show. And they are concerned for the safety of attendees. This is the intention of leftist terror. Welcome to Donald Trump, the wartime president.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, again, the. The fact that, like, this is absolutely terrorism. This is exactly what they want to see. They want to see people distancing themselves from Trump and from Tesla. And stuff. So, I mean, it's good that the. The FBI is rounding people up.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I hate that fact that. I mean, it's a Canada. So invade Canada. Invade Canada. But besides that fact, like, they're getting what they want and the people who are regular folks, middle ground folks. Cody, I don't know if you have an opinion on this. Are.

[Phil Labonte]

They're all.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They're kicking them out of the auto show because they're worried about violence coming from a certain party, bending the knee.

[Cody McIntyre]

To a bunch of extremists instead of being like, hey, we're not going to tolerate that. Yeah, I mean, I don't care if you. You're a Ford guy. Chevy guy.

[Phil Labonte]

What?

[Cody McIntyre]

You shouldn't be throwing bombs at cars. You shouldn't be lighting cars on fire. That's stupid. I. I don't understand it. And the fact that just a few years ago, Tesla was held as some green. Green car. We're saving the p. The. The planet. It's just. It's odd to me, man. Like, it just all comes full circle and we're.

[Phil Labonte]

We're heading down to the city this weekend and we're taking the Tesla. Oh, well, I think I should take the cybertruck, though.

[Tim Pool]

To the city. Like, to dc.

[Phil Labonte]

Dc? Yeah, I think we take the cybertruck because it's more ostentatious.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah. And you could take. You know, I've seen them take abuse.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, I got an idea. How about I hire. What do they call it, Perked? Is that the phrase for armed guards?

[Tim Pool]

Perked?

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, like someone I'd be in Illinois.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Sitting on top of it with like.

[Phil Labonte]

No, no, it's an acronym for people who have the right to. Okay, so DC's got real restrict laws on guns. What. What if we hire some, like, you know, armed guards, just. And then just film it while we're down there.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Can you open up the back of it and have them standing on top with like a 240 saw?

[Tiffany Cianci]

No.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Just in case.

[Phil Labonte]

No, no. I mean, I'm saying protect my vehicle from being vandalized and then film in case somebody tries to vandalize the car. But I'm saying terrorists are attacking and setting fire to vehicles, so we're going to bring the Tesla down there. And I'm saying maybe we should hire security, not have a guy stand there with this.

[Tim Pool]

Yes, you should. And the security should be a guy standing there with us. That's the security. But not.

[Phil Labonte]

Remember when Pelosi said she wanted belt.

[Tim Pool]

Fed, but what did she say she wanted? She wanted belt Fed machine guns.

[Phil Labonte]

Belt fed machine guns.

[Tim Pool]

I mean, look, I want belt machine guns too.

[Phil Labonte]

On January 6, Nancy Pelos said she wanted belt fed machine guns. It's like, lady, do you know what that would do to the surrounding buildings? Yo, I went when I was in Ukraine, they got buildings. The bullet holes from World War II are still in. It's nuts. You're walking down the street, you're going to, you're going to the grocery store and they're like, hey, look. And you can see a brick wall and it's a row of bullet holes through it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

But they don't have plaster in Ukraine.

[Phil Labonte]

No, they never fixed it. And I was like, why don't they fix it? And they were like communists. No, for real. The communists took over and said, we ain't spending money on that. They stole all their food, let them starve to death.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, geez.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, that was Pre World War II, but still, you get the point. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's crazy.

[Tim Pool]

Yes. If you go to the, if you go to dc, you should have not.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, we, you know, you know what I think I'm thinking is maybe we just, we bring the truck down and then we actually just have security and just watch and film and then just stop anybody who tries to do it. It would be interesting to see what happens.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That is kind of funny. Just, just kind of like it's like you leaving the car and locked the cops. You know how to leave cars unlocked sometimes and have the keys in them to see if someone's going to steal their vehicle. And then that's. I, I mean, I hate it too. I'm not a big fan, but. And kind of, you know, just for content purposes.

[Cody McIntyre]

They car the Tesla? Is that what you're saying?

[Phil Labonte]

No, no, no, it doesn't work that way because you have to, you have to have your phone near the car for it to drive. Oh, really? Yeah. Unless like no keys. I think, I think if the car is driving and then the key is gone. Yeah, it'll keep driving.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah. So if you, if you like turn on, like you have your, your, your key is in your phone, right? And if you turn off the Bluetooth while you're driving, the car will be like, if you stop, you can't start again. You need to have the, the key put on there. Like, or you could put the card in the spot or whatever because you have, you get actual like credit card style keys as well that come with it in case your phone goes down or whatever. High tech. I mean, it's great, you know, but it's great that it has the. The security system and stuff as well. The.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

The cameras are nice.

[Tim Pool]

You know, the constant cameras and stuff. But I mean, still, it's. It's. It's nice to know that you could find someone if they did, or you could get video. But I don't want someone to key my car, you know? I don't want someone to smash my.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, that's fair.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I'd rather not.

[Phil Labonte]

Right? Yeah, I guess you can key a cyber truck. It's a little different.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They did it, though. It's terrible.

[Phil Labonte]

It's just. What is it? Like, plate?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

It's stainless steel, I believe.

[Tim Pool]

Right?

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Which is not easy. But I've seen pictures of that one dude who got busted when the dude had the USA on down his arm. He got.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, right. Cybertruck.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, yeah, it was a cybertruck.

[Phil Labonte]

What about the dude who stink palmed? Did you see that one?

[Cody McIntyre]

No.

[Phil Labonte]

The guy who stink palmed the cyber truck.

[Cody McIntyre]

Oh, God, I did see that on Instagram.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's stink palm.

[Cody McIntyre]

That's. That's commitment, dude. To do something like that. Like, I. I kind of respect it a little bit. If you're gonna.

[Phil Labonte]

I think he washed his hand. Hands afterwards.

[Cody McIntyre]

Hell no.

[Phil Labonte]

Wait, wait. I bet he ate a cheeseburger. Stink palm. Like, bro, bro. You don't know what a stink palm is? You ever watch Mall Rats?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I've not lived that. Oh, oh, that up there and then that.

[Phil Labonte]

You see mall Rats, right?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I have.

[Phil Labonte]

Okay, remember he stink palms the. The.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Dad, it's a long time ago.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, come on. It's like the scene in the movie. Jason Lee shoves his hands up his ass and then he shakes the.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, with the pretzels.

[Phil Labonte]

And the pretzels.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, the pretzel scene.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tim Pool]

It makes the father sick and.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Tim Pool]

Split because he got sick.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, he's. Some guys think palmed a cyber truck.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Jesus. That's commitment.

[Phil Labonte]

He was morbidly obese.

[Cody McIntyre]

That's what I'm saying, man. Seriously? You're willing to ruin your whole day for somebody else's day? You know?

[Tim Pool]

You know.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, we got another guest. Hey, awesome.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Welcome, welcome, welcome.

[Phil Labonte]

Hey, welcome.

[Tim Pool]

How you doing?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Hello.

[Phil Labonte]

This is your swinging by we were just talking about. That guy was stinking Cyber truck.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, just in time for all the disgusting.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Okay, perfect.

[Phil Labonte]

Grab the mic. Who are you?

[Tiffany Cianci]

I am Tiffany Cianci on X. I'm the vino mom on Tick Tock. I'm Tiffany Cianci.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, welcome, welcome, welcome.

[Phil Labonte]

We. We did have A guest who was booked, and they told us literally, like 20 minutes before the show that they weren't coming. So we were just like, well, they told us they were coming. And sometimes, you know, I kind of feel like I have to give up more information. So can people. So look, because people are going to say this, they're going to be like, tim, don't you have drivers? Well, certain companies with talent that book shows have their own drivers, and it's fairly normal that we don't deal with that. We just confirm and then they take care of it on their end. And so that's what we just assumed was happening.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I'd be like beating a dead horse, though, if you keep. I mean, which is fine.

[Phil Labonte]

I don't mind. No. I'm just pointing out, like, the reason why we didn't have a guest today is because companies that we normally work with, other media companies that have talent, usually take care of their own talent. And so I just. When they can, when they confirm it with us, then it's just like, we're good. And then we were like, hey, what's going on? Sending messages. And then, like, only 20 minutes out, they're like, oh, yeah, we're sorry. Oh, my God, we're not coming.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And we were like, all right, I appreciate you coming.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah, thanks for having me.

[Phil Labonte]

Made it for the back half.

[Tiffany Cianci]

All right. I appreciate. I don't live that far away. Ian Carroll, to your old studio when he was on your show.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, cool.

[Tiffany Cianci]

He's a good friend of mine.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, yeah, we know that guy. He thinks. He thinks that I was trying to buy the Daily Wire, which is not correct.

[Tim Pool]

It's expensive. Very expensive. You have a. There's a thread going around now, or Maybe it's a TikTok post that's going around that just recently went. And you're talking about. I recognize you. I don't remember exactly what it was, but it's gone pretty viral, correct?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah, they give it like 28 million views across all the platforms.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, it's a big one.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Tim Pool]

Can you give us a little information about that?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah, basically, I was down in Austin with Ian, actually, and I was doing a bunch of research on private equity. That's mostly what I talk about on my channel. I do deep dives on it. And I was doing some research on why Joanne's craft store was going out of business. Didn't make any sense to me.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I love Joanne's.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Everybody who crafts anything loves Joann's. And any crafter doesn't want to buy something Online, we want to touch it. I want to make sure we can see what it is. So it's the one retail store where you're not going to get us buying stuff online. They gained nine and a half million new customers since COVID Wow. 97% of their stores were cash positive. And I wanted to know why they were closing down. And I found an article, really obscure Financial Times article that said it was their back floating rate debt. I'm like, what the hell is that? Am I allowed to curse?

[Phil Labonte]

Try not to.

[Tiffany Cianci]

What the heck is that?

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, and that's a mild curse.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Anyways, I called some friends at a private equity firm that regularly leak info to me and I was like, what is this? And they said we're not supposed to use that term publicly. I said, what is this? And they said, here's some stuff you could research in and gave me some, some financial prospectuses. It they basically what I learned was that like since in the last six to eight years, private equity firms have stacked like $4 trillion in adjustable rate debt on all these companies.

[Tim Pool]

Oh wow.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And over the last three years, as the interest rates have been like skyrocketing, I was trying to figure out why the bankruptcies had doubled each year over three years. And I find out that these companies would be succeeding if they weren't 2008 mortgage crisis ing all these companies they're bankrupting. And I was like, there's no way I'm the first one. There is no way I'm the first one.

[Phil Labonte]

The end is nigh.

[Tiffany Cianci]

The end. It feels like it's nigh. I've got to tell you, like these companies, the last three years it was called back floating rate debt.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh yeah.

[Tim Pool]

For people that don't know an adjustable rate mortgage, like it changes depending on what the interest rate is.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Tim Pool]

And so when interest rates rise, the rate of, you know, the rate on the mortgage rise or whatever the debt is, the rate of the rate of interest you're paying on the debt rises.

[Tiffany Cianci]

But mortgages are better because it adjusts once a year.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

In this it's every 30 to 60 days.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, geez.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's, let's, let's start from the beginning.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And we'll launch a segment for this one because we have your, your post on X, you said the next 2008 is happening. Party City, Joanne's Forever 21 Big Lots all collapsing. Do you know about what, what's. Who's a parent company of Billabong and all them.

[Cody McIntyre]

Oh man, I couldn't tell you.

[Phil Labonte]

You know about this one?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yes, I do. They were part of the 2024 record breaking bankruptcy collection.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. Yeah. So you heard this, right? Because this is. This is.

[Cody McIntyre]

Oh, yeah, I just saw her video actually, like two days ago.

[Phil Labonte]

But you heard about Billabong, Volcom, Hurley.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Who, who, who?

[Cody McIntyre]

I think even RVCA filed as well too.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. Yep. They're all my one company.

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Who owned them? What was the name of that company? It's a subsidiary of, you know, who owns it. There's one company that owned all of those, like, action sports brands. They declared bankruptcy too. And that was massive for people in the skate industry because these were like core legacy brands. Kind of paid the bills for a lot of guys. Now with them going out of business. We saw this. Yeah. With big lots. So you're base.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

So.

[Phil Labonte]

So what are you saying, Tiffany? You're saying that this is the next 2008 happening right now?

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's what I think. Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

We short it and make $100 million.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I mean, the. If you shorted like the. So one of the things that was scary about 2008 is they repackaged the bad debt and sold it off as derivatives and as CDOs, and then they did synthetic CDOs. They're repackaging all of this debt as something called CLOs, and they're selling it to all the pension funds.

[Tim Pool]

What?

[Tiffany Cianci]

All the pensions have been buying up this debt. That's what's freaking me out the most. Because the pensions have been buying into private equity in exponentially increasing numbers over the last, like 10 years because pensions are severely underfunded. Lots of them. I've been talking to Ian about Girl Scouts pension getting bankrupted by private equity and Girl Scouts of America.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, well, didn't they go woke?

[Tiffany Cianci]

They did.

[Phil Labonte]

So we don't care about that one.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah, but like. Okay, well, don't. By the way, I'm sad, but the Michigan Employees Union, a bunch of the unions that handle, like automotive unions, pensions, they're all invested in equity. And the reason they're doing it is because if you invest in anything with a pension, every time the dividends come every quarter, you have to update what's on your books. But if you invest in private equity, you put the estimated returns for 10 years on your books, so nobody knows how bad it is for 10 years. And you get to hand that off to the next pension manager, and it's their problem.

[Phil Labonte]

Okay, so hold on. You got this massively viral video.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

It's Party City. Joanne's Forever 21. Big Lots. They're all collapsing.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

There. Are there other companies that are collapsing to hundreds? Are there ones that have not collapsed yet but will collapse soon?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Do you know?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Do you know, in my opinion, right now, private equity is bankrupting. They're going to short term gain and then destroy. Southwest Airlines. Is Michael's, I estimate, corrupt in the next year and a half.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Wow.

[Phil Labonte]

Because what was the name of those companies? I'm going to buy some shorts.

[Tim Pool]

Southwest Airlines.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Southwest Airlines.

[Phil Labonte]

No, for real.

[Tiffany Cianci]

So everybody's wondering what happened with Southwest Airlines. Southwest Airlines, they've been trying to say all week, free bags is not in our DNA. Do you know what trademark they own? Two Bags Fly Free. Yeah, they own that trademark and they have defended it and canceled other people's Bags Fly Free trademarks through litigation because it is their DNA.

[Tim Pool]

One of my friends was making remarks. I saw that he tweeted about complaints about Southwest about the baggage stuff.

[Tiffany Cianci]

1.8 billion in shares got bought up by an activist firm called Elliot Management's private equity firm. And their business is they come in, they buy enough shares to get board seats, and then they come in and they force changes that are bad for the long term, for the company, but get short term gains. Then they dump their stock and leave the company, like, bereft. Wow.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Is Michaels going too? Because I love.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Michaels will be next.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I love, you know, the craft. They're good. Geez.

[Phil Labonte]

Is it publicly traded?

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's publicly traded right now, but it was taken back public by a private equity firm that's taken them private and then public twice. And so they're going to get screwed. Like in the game of Monopoly, of craft stores, Hobby Lobby will win. If there is a God, they will win.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's just like, super simplified. Basically, what happens is these businesses are cash positive.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

But they have to pay massive interest rates. Is that it?

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's worse than that. Like, if I had.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm going to little. Little Tim Pool. Are those Coasters?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Tim's llc. Coasters. Okay. This is. This is your business. Okay.

[Phil Labonte]

All right.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I buy a house or I buy a car and I take out the loan. My name is on that loan and I owe that loan back. If I'm private equity and I buy a car, that car owns that loan back. Wait, what if I'm private equity and I buy Tim Pool llc? I don't own that loan. My name's not on that loan. I have no liability. If I bankrupt that loan, this Temple LLC owes that money back. I don't have to do Anything, I just get free money and I stick it on top of here. So Tim Pool was successful. They were making money. And I said, I bet I could get more money out of that, but I'm never going to pay for it. Tim Pool is going to pay for himself. So I borrow money and I make the Tim Pool LLC owe the money back, not me. And then as soon as I get.

[Phil Labonte]

There, you keep the money that was borrowed?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Well, no, they don't borrow them. I mean, they give that money to whoever they bought it from. And now Tim Pool company owns the money back when they were free and clear before that. Now what I'm going to do.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm still not following. Why, why take the loan out?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Because Tim Pool is owned by Tim Pool and I want to own Tim Pool.

[Phil Labonte]

So someone wants to buy the company.

[Tiffany Cianci]

The private equity firm wants to buy it.

[Phil Labonte]

So a private equity firm wants to buy. They get a loan, but the, the, the debt liability is on the company. Not the purchaser.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Not the purchaser and they have no liability.

[Phil Labonte]

So basically the purchaser then owns the company, makes a bunch of profit, lets the loan default.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Worse.

[Phil Labonte]

Worse.

[Tiffany Cianci]

So not only do they buy the company, but they're going to force the company to sign a contract with them to be the manager, the advisor, and possibly have some kind of other financial role. So now the company owes me money every month as their advisor. Could be a million dollars, could be a hundred million dollars. So I'm gonna start funneling the wealth out of that company to me. Second, I'm gonna sell all the land that all their stores are bought on. I'm gonna sell all of it out from under them and I'm gonna lease it back to them and I'm gonna dividend all that money to myself. So now I'm literally strip mining every bit of wealth. Now I'm gonna take all the assets they have, all the assets they have in their warehouses, going to sell that to a liquidator. So now they have to buy every month and they don't have any cushion. Okay, so I'm going to sell that to a liquidator and I'm going to dividend that back to myself. At the same time, I'm going to make a bunch of cuts. So their customer service is going to drop, their sales are going to go down, and whatever's left, I'm going to dividend that to myself. And at the same time, they're still owing all this money. Now they're leasing back the land they owned before. So they have another bill they didn't anticipate. I am expensive. Expeditiously increasing the rate of.

[Phil Labonte]

They're going to wait. They're breaking it apart and selling it off piece by piece, collecting as much as they can and then leaving a shipwreck.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Leaving a shipwreck that the American taxpayers pay for and that we pay all of the like. If you look at Joanne's or, or Party City or any of these, these are 250,000 people in the last three months that are going to be unemployed.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Jeez.

[Tiffany Cianci]

We now have, you know, you're talking about 100,000 anchor stores and parking lots that are going to be empty.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, I feel like I can conspiracy minded, but this is orchestrated to make sure that if Trump got elected he would be faced with a massive collapse that would obstruct his ability to operate.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Funny you should mention that. Did you happen to notice four weeks ago when Trump started saying he was going to close the carried interest loophole? It's the only thing that allows private equity to make money and he has to get ahead of this because he sees it coming.

[Phil Labonte]

Why?

[Tiffany Cianci]

To say he did something positive.

[Phil Labonte]

Why doesn't he come out and just talk about all the things that just went down and say I have been in office for now two months and we have just uncovered something that's been occurring. When did this start? Is the question, because it was starting his first term that he's on the hook too?

[Tiffany Cianci]

It started earlier than that.

[Phil Labonte]

Interesting.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Private equity. When Jimmy Carter was In office, only 35 people could invest. And over that you had to report to the sec. We had to see what was happening. Reagan loosened that a little bit. Clinton, when he repealed glass, Steagall took most of the guardrails off and expanded it to where it went from 100 people could invest to 1,000 people. He had a bipartisan Congress that passed with 98%. It's not a one party problem. Then it got to Obama. All the guardrails came off. Everything. You could have unlimited investors, unlimited amounts of money and nobody could see. Our SEC couldn't see what was going on. They could be using the same collateral, the same assets to collateralize 50 lines of debt and creating a bubble. We wouldn't know. We have no idea what's going on. It's a black box.

[Phil Labonte]

I bet it's worse than that.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I agree.

[Phil Labonte]

This is probably, you know, here's what you're probably looking at. There's the tip of a tentacle flopping around and you're pointing to it. But if you follow that tentacle Back there's like a giant squid monster Federal Reserve to.

[Tim Pool]

How does the, the private equity firm get the authority to even start breaking up the company in the first place? The. I mean, the company that you know, for instance, your, in your, in your example, Tim Pool, you know, the company. Did they agree to this?

[Tiffany Cianci]

So there's lots of ways they can acquire a company, but the most, the easiest way for them to do it is to acquire enough shares or makeover that they're required to sell it to them.

[Tim Pool]

Okay. Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Because they have to serve the shareholders. So they take it back private and they just start auctioning it off to the highest bid.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah. So it's hostile takeover and then just start ripping it apart. I mean, that makes sense in the.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Case of the company that you guys don't know this, but I've been fighting a private equity company in court for the last four years. So I started all this and in our instance, it was a hostile takeover. They acquired enough shares from multiple different parties that they were able to force out the founders and take over the company.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

A little dirty.

[Tim Pool]

Well, yeah, it's.

[Phil Labonte]

Dude, this makes hostile takeover seem super chill. Yeah. And really nice and friendly and like accountable.

[Tiffany Cianci]

So.

[Phil Labonte]

So Michael's is private. Right.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Was taken back private again. But I thought they went back to ipo. I have to look.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

So they go back and forth.

[Phil Labonte]

You're saying they take them back? Maybe.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Okay. Is that just to sell more off of what they have than the first?

[Tiffany Cianci]

So it can, it's so it can change. It changes hands between different private equity firms. That's called selling something on the secondaries market. In the case of Joanne's, they took it public and took it private three times.

[Tim Pool]

Wow.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And each time it was strip mined a little more and a little more. But Covid gave Joanne's this amazing boost.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Because people got hobbies.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

So what's. What's going to happen to the average person right now sitting at home and they just got back from the grocery store with some milk, bread and eggs. Are they going to lose their job or is this going to cause housing to crash? What happens?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Well, private equity firms are the heart. The largest holder of single family homes in the United States.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Really?

[Tiffany Cianci]

And most of those were also acquired, I've now learned, using backflow back rate floating debt, which is this adjustable rate debt. So I do think it's driving up home prices and I think it's doing it exponentially.

[Phil Labonte]

Just related. Like the, the Blackrock Blackstone kind of thing.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Blackstone is the private equity firm that has the largest single family housing homes portfolio in the us in the world, actually.

[Phil Labonte]

So are they going to default or what?

[Tiffany Cianci]

I mean, I don't think they're going to default because all of those homes, they're running out. They're just going to keep raising the prices. Yeah, don't for them.

[Phil Labonte]

Don't they just get their money from the Federal Reserve and have infinite money?

[Tiffany Cianci]

I mean. Yeah, they do.

[Phil Labonte]

Okay, so we're good.

[Tim Pool]

Whatever.

[Phil Labonte]

I mean, you can't go to Joanne's anymore, but I didn't go there anyway, so what do I care?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I like making T shirts, man. T shirts are fun to make.

[Tiffany Cianci]

We do love making T shirts. Yeah, I, I have a sewing room that's got about 10, 000 yards of fabric in it, and I don't know where I'm gonna buy.

[Phil Labonte]

I actually, this is bad, but I'm kind of wondering what the net positive might actually be. We need a return to Main Street. We, we don't want big box stores anymore. These are, these are bad for small towns. And so if there is an opportunity, I understand a bad thing is happening. We don't want bad thing to happen. But I would recommend individuals who are concerned, like right now, your opportunities, if you were a fan of Joanne's, open up a small store, because guess what? You're about to get 9 million new customers.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

It's not a bad idea.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And on Main Street.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Main street is, in my opinion, so like my. I have my Maha water bottle today, but normally I have one that says in small business, we trust. And I say that with my whole chest. Small businesses are the, the most effective way that any normal American can fight private equity in the shoes they're standing. Private equity got wind of that and they figured that out. And so they're targeting small businesses now in greater numbers than they ever have before.

[Phil Labonte]

What are they doing?

[Tiffany Cianci]

So, like on Robert F. Kennedy Jr's podcast, the first time I was on there, I told him about a group called Champions Group. I talked about it in Infowars today too. On Robert F. Kennedy Jr's podcast, I told him they're acquiring large swaths of an entire industry. Champions group is H Vac, and in the Southwest, they've brought up like 85 H Vac small businesses. But they didn't just buy them. They didn't just buy it. They paid for the name, image, likeness of the former owners so that they could keep looking like they were a small business. Then they installed unified software across all of the thousands of trucks. And so no matter who you call to come look at your frozen air conditioning or condensation line, they're each going to quote you at three times higher price than they ever did before. And they're going to say, oh, I mean, you don't have to trust me. Call these other guys. And everyone comes out and they're all charging you more money. All of a sudden then they say, wait for it. Wait for it. They say, don't worry, you can't afford this. I know. It's three times as much as used to be Covid. Inflation, greed, Flash, whatever. They're gonna say, don't worry, we'll finance it for you. And they'll hand you an iPad like this. They'll say, just sign right here. They're not gonna hand you a truth and lending statement like they're required to by law. They're gonna hand you this iPad, you're gonna squiggle it, and you're 85 years old and it says 100amonth. And you're like, oh, I can't afford it, but I'll try. And then on your first missed payment, they're gonna exercise what was in there. That was a lien on your house. And they're gonna take your house from you.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Holy moly.

[Tiffany Cianci]

We're gonna own that too.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Holy moly.

[Tim Pool]

I'll just buy a fle on your house.

[Cody McIntyre]

Terrible.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's so hard to understand how hard it is to even find out what a small business is anymore.

[Phil Labonte]

Guys, is it really so bad to just live in the pod and eat the bugs?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

This is my first doomcast.

[Phil Labonte]

Stop resisting, Raymond. How about we build a podcast and you can live in it?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I mean, it's big enough for me to catch.

[Phil Labonte]

Okay, here's my, here's my stipulation. I will live in the pod, but it has to be on a 40 foot tall steel post I can climb to. And then I'm basically looking back. I got. I got to get good music, a TV on the bottom of the pod, and I will sleep in the pod, but I'll live and work around it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Do you have, is your, is your pole post? Does it have, like things to grab.

[Phil Labonte]

On, you climb up or you got.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

To shimmy it up like old school? How you getting up there, Tim?

[Phil Labonte]

I like the shimmy idea.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I mean, it's good workout.

[Phil Labonte]

You throw a belt around it. Okay.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

That way, that way. You've got to worry about intruders now. Come on, admit it. You guys would love to live on this big tower where you're in this pod with music. You got a tv, and it's glass, and it's looking up at the sky. Imagine that during a thunderstorm, and you're just laying down in this comfy little pod, and you're. That's. That's amazing.

[Tim Pool]

No, thanks.

[Phil Labonte]

I don't want to eat the bugs, though. But most people are already.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Are.

[Phil Labonte]

Are already eating cochinial mites in their red dyes.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Oh, God, my Mike.

[Phil Labonte]

You know about that?

[Tiffany Cianci]

About this? Endlessly. Every time their friends have a nerds are up, they're like, that's bugs. That's bugs every time.

[Phil Labonte]

Cheddar. Have you seen the echetta popping up in ingredients? Yes.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yes.

[Phil Labonte]

A cheddar. It means cricket, because they're blowing up. I was at. I was at a grocery store, and we were looking at a bunch of products, and I was like, it says red, red 40s as yellow 5. And I'm like, what other company is allowed to obfuscate what their product is? Imagine if instead of, like, I don't know, sodium benzo it, they just put safety seal. It's like, oh, it's got safety seal in it. That's right.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Or.

[Phil Labonte]

Or, you know, like, freshener.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Food.

[Phil Labonte]

Food safety freshener. Like, why are we legally allowing them to change the name of tarine to yellow mites? You. You know. You know all about this.

[Tiffany Cianci]

They call it Carmine color.

[Phil Labonte]

Carmine.

[Tiffany Cianci]

The name they use for it. Carmine color. And it is a parasite that eats blood, and it turns whatever water it touches bright red.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Wow.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And that is what's in nerd ropes. And my kids literally go, andy, Carmine color. Look it up.

[Phil Labonte]

Nerd Ropes.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yep. Nerd Ropes Candy.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's like.

[Phil Labonte]

You're already eating the ropes.

[Tiffany Cianci]

We are eating the bugs.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's like Ozembic, which has that poison.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

No, no, no. Hold on. We're going to dig into this, because. Take a look at this. It says nerd ropes contain color additives. That includes karma. Oh, look at that, dude.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Told you.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Wow.

[Phil Labonte]

Hey, look at that, bro. With. With. With the ban. So West Virginia banned artificial dyes, bro. Ladies and gentlemen, let me just. Let me pull up carmine color.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Literally.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's so gross. So gross. Just show what they look like.

[Phil Labonte]

All right, so. So first, nerds, you can't sue me because I Googled this right here on the Internet, and it says there's carmine color in your nerd ropes. I looked up carmine, and I'm just taking a look at. What is that?

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's the insect.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, God.

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's what they look like it's a.

[Phil Labonte]

Cluster Female Dactylopius cocus. Cochinial insects were used for their red coloring as early as 700 BC. The word carmine has been used as color since 1799. So what is this carmine, also called cochineal when it is extracted from the cochinial insect cochineal extract. Crimson lake or carmine lake is a pigment of bright red color obtained from the aluminum complex derived from carminic acid. Is it possible they're getting carmine color from carminic acid?

[Tiffany Cianci]

No, they grind up the bug.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, you're right. Carminic acid is derived from the clockineal insect. Just literally.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And they do it like. Like you can grind them up with a knife and they. It's the brightest red you can add to anything. And they're putting it in all the candy and all of the kids drinks.

[Phil Labonte]

You know what's really funny is everybody kept saying, you will eat the bugs, but people were eating the bugs. Already you are. Already you are eating the bugs.

[Tim Pool]

To be fair, I. I would rather have any of these bug based dyes than the yellow that comes from. Yeah, from sludge.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Have you guys seen where they get the fake vanilla?

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, it's from like a beaver's butt, right? Beaver's butt. Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Sex gland.

[Phil Labonte]

I don't think it's a sex gland.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Something like that.

[Phil Labonte]

It's like a scent gland or something.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's a scent gland for their meeting ritual.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

How many, how many beavers are out there that get that color out? What are they? This?

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's the artificial vanilla.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. It comes from the beaver butt. Yeah, yeah.

[Tim Pool]

I'll spend real bad.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Producing beavers.

[Phil Labonte]

Does vanilla flavoring actually come from beaver butts? Okay. It's from Smithsonian spider. Claims castoreum is rarely used as a food flavoring. Oh, well, there you go.

[Tim Pool]

Rarely used to.

[Phil Labonte]

I got. Guys, guys, I got to be honest.

[Tim Pool]

Two years ago.

[Phil Labonte]

I will eat that beaver.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Well then.

[Tim Pool]

Fair enough.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Not mad about that.

[Tiffany Cianci]

The women of the world support your.

[Phil Labonte]

This is a naughty show. I will literally hunt that small animal and I will properly gut and prepare it for a fine meal.

[Tim Pool]

I mean, you could. You can just get regular, real vanilla.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yep.

[Tim Pool]

You know.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Amazing, right?

[Tim Pool]

You know, it's money from beans and.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

You know, we got ice cream downstairs that's like the most natural flavored ice cream. Vanilla. We do. Yeah, it's natural. It's called natural vanilla. It only has like 7 ingredients. Compared to everyone else, it has like 15 and 30.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Love it.

[Tim Pool]

I like ice cream.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

It's downstairs in the. It does have Gum in it though, for some weird reason.

[Tim Pool]

Whatever.

[Phil Labonte]

That's gonna be a clip all over. I can see everyone.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, you're beaver.

[Phil Labonte]

Everyone's already posting.

[Tim Pool]

I would eat that Beaver Tim Pool.

[Phil Labonte]

Simple. Well, you just said it now too, so.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, Yeah, I did.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's see, I asked ChatGPT, what is Carmine color? Carmine is a deep red color made from carminic acid, a natural dye derived from crushed cochineal insects, Tiny beetles. Native to Central and South America. It's used in food, cosmetics and textiles to give a rich red or pink hue. So if you see carmine or cochineal extract. Yes, it's insects.

[Tim Pool]

It's. I know that the, the whole eat the bugs thing that people say, oh, you know, I will not eat the bugs and I will not live in the pod. I, I don't. I personally, and maybe someone else will disagree, but I don't feel like, you know, having insects as an ingredient is the same thing as like being fed, like just liquefied bugs as your only source of nutrients, which is what I understand you will eat the bugs to mean. So. But that's, that's just me, you know, bro.

[Phil Labonte]

When, when. So what people don't understand, they think you will eat the bugs means that the government's going to come to your house or you're going to go to the grocery store and they're going to be like, here's a bag of cockroaches. Eat them. What they're already doing is they're taking a Chetta Protein, they call it. They take crickets, pulverize them, take the little bits, give it a new fancy name and then mix it with other things. You're going to the grocery store and you're like, oh, what's this high protein cheese puff? And then you're like, what's the ingredients? It's cornmeal, a cheddar, cheese, milk, salt, paprika. That looks pretty good. And then you're eating it and you're going. And then someone's like, you're eating cricket, bro. And you're like, what do you mean? No, I'm not. I'm eating a cornmeal and a cheddar. That's right. They changed the name, you know, it's brilliant.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

So back to your thing that should be illegal, right?

[Phil Labonte]

I think so.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Putting in their fake names.

[Phil Labonte]

Yep.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They can call it whatever, they can call it Fluffy Sauce, but it's really, you're eating like turf.

[Tim Pool]

I mean, is even a cheddar like the real name? Like, it's crickets.

[Phil Labonte]

So here's. Here's something funny. People are posting on YouTube. Fix the audio, guys. That's YouTube, not us. People are posting. They refreshed and it's working again. That's YouTube, not us.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

You always have to refresh. If you're new here, you shouldn't be new here.

[Phil Labonte]

By people watching on Rumble are having no problem. It's almost. It's almost like YouTube is intentionally sabotaging our show as well.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They don't want to talk about beaver butts.

[Phil Labonte]

No. They don't want us to exist on YouTube.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Good thing rumble's blowing up. Yeah.

[Tim Pool]

You know.

[Phil Labonte]

Yep.

[Tim Pool]

Screw.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, there you go. We do have more news to talk about. Let's jump to this story from Mediaite Daily Shows Jordan Klepper ribs studio audience cheering on Tesla arson.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Wow.

[Phil Labonte]

You guys like petty acts of domestic terrorism? Indeed, people. A network error. Let's try that again. People are not content to just scream about Elon in a high school gym. They're taking to the streets or the the parking lots. Tonight, the FBI and ATF now investigating multiple cases of possible arson targeting Teslas and cyber trucks. This dramatic video shows multiple cars in flames. Police say the attacker used Molotov cocktail. Details. It's the latest in more than a dozen instances of arson and vandalism targeting Tesla.

[Tim Pool]

The same suspect shot more Tesla's with a gun. Tesla cybertrucks were set on fire in Kansas City. And earlier this month, shots fired at a Tesla dealership in Oregon. Cybertrucks on fire in Seattle.

[Phil Labonte]

Wow.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

You guys like petty acts of domestic terrorism, huh?

[Phil Labonte]

Wow.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Okay, let me just say nobody should.

[Phil Labonte]

Be breaking the law and blowing up.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Tesla Teslas especially because if you just.

[Phil Labonte]

Wait a few minutes, they'll probably do it by themselves. I don't understand what that joke was supposed to mean, but sure. Here's a guy who got banned from from X. Rick Wilson.

[Tim Pool]

He's garbage.

[Phil Labonte]

So from 30 days to a full suspension. Lol. Guess Elon didn't like my video from last night. He was literally banned because he called for people to kill Tesla. And in his post he literally says attack the picture of a Tesla on fire. An actual picture, not a drawing.

[Tim Pool]

He then spent a bunch of time saying, oh, you didn't read the piece. You didn't read the piece. You didn't read the piece? No. No one reads your garbage. And everyone picked up what you were implying in the first place. Rick, you garbage can.

[Phil Labonte]

I think he should be investigated. Here. Here's says this is the article that got me banned on Twitter. Nazis Fine. Racist fix. Okay. Describing a social and media campaign to hit Tesla stock price. Sissy. SpaceX freaks out. Yeah. It's a picture of the cybertruck explosion in front of the Trump Building and it reads, kill Tesla, save the country. Elon has a weak spot attack. And, bro, I'm sorry, that's an imminent threat. You. You are literally saying Elon's a weak spot attack, attack. Okay, in the context of the picture of the flaming car you posted. No one's assuming that you mean figuratively in his stock price.

[Tiffany Cianci]

No, no. 100% not.

[Tim Pool]

He knew what he was doing.

[Phil Labonte]

He.

[Tim Pool]

He's a piece. He's an absolute piece of trash.

[Phil Labonte]

Right? So the issue that we're dealing with now in this country is Trump's a wartime president. This is. And that's my point.

[Tim Pool]

They.

[Phil Labonte]

The people are cheering in the audience of New York for overt terror against political targets. And the right is particularly naive and has been for some time. And I don't know what, what's going to take for them to finally realize that this is not a call to action. I'm not saying to do anything. I'm just saying start to realize what the left has out. Has out for you.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah. So just ignore them.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And they've had it out for us for so long. Like, listen, before I knew things were bad before the election and things are getting bad, and we had to fight fire with fire. And then once Trump won, I'm like, okay, cool, you know, we can start doing what we want to do, try to save America the best we can. And now it's just now the judges and all these people and then this violence and this terribleness that's going on. We can't take a. Can we get a win, please?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Did you guys see all of the creators that are getting swatted right now?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yes.

[Tim Pool]

Oh, yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

So my friend Anna Matson posted from her Tesla the other day. She was driving and she posted and she was immediately doxed online.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Geez.

[Tiffany Cianci]

She was terrified.

[Phil Labonte]

She was. She posted. Posted what?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Someone went on. She was just making a video. She's a creator. She does a lot on Robert F. Kennedy.

[Phil Labonte]

Like, someone walked up to her and filmed her car.

[Tiffany Cianci]

She was posting from her Tesla. She went out from, like to sit in it and make a video and somebody realized it was a Tesla and they went online and they doxed her.

[Tim Pool]

Did so. Did.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, from her video. They saw she was in a Tesla.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And they doxed her online and told people to do what it.

[Phil Labonte]

I own three Teslas. I say when we go to D.C. the weekend. Everybody drives one.

[Tim Pool]

The important thing, at least for me personally, the important thing isn't the number of Teslas that I own, it's the number of guns I own.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, I own three Teslas. I'm going to. I'm going to be driving them around and I guarantee you nothing's going to happen to my Tesla. Yeah, but it'll be interesting going to dc. I don't think anything's going to happen. I think largely what the issue is is there are a lot of tax on Tesla, but it is spread out all over the country. And the average person who has a Tesla is probably not going to be experiencing something like this. But there are a lot of people in cities who are very scared. But I think it'll be really fun to drive on a cyber truck. You see the, you see the video where the guy flicked off the cyber truck and the guy had like, the kid in his car?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, the guy went, he started pounding on it and flicking.

[Phil Labonte]

They're, they're, they're red light. And the guy's just flipping off his hand out the window. I'm like, bro, your tears sustain me. I am going to drive out of my cyber truck and when people start screaming at me, I'm just going to blast Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter.

[Tiffany Cianci]

All of the people doing things to these cars. Because I did not know that a Tesla records anyone that walks up to it. Oh, yeah, and I saw that video from DFW Airport of that guy keying the side of the cyber truck and his face coming all the way down. I was like, he did not know.

[Phil Labonte]

That camera was watching him do this. People not realize teslas have like 12 cameras on them.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They don't. That's how uninformed and stupid they are.

[Phil Labonte]

Now I will say this. Elon, hear my plea. I need to be able to look at the. The cabin camera when other people are driving it. They disable that. I don't understand. It's my car. I'm logged in. Because when. When you valet it. Yeah, I want. I. Oh. So there's some places where we brought cybertruck and the valets aren't allowed to go in it for a couple reasons. They say it's like, oh, because it's hard to drive or whatever. No, it's because it's a weird. I don't know about right now, but. But at least some of the places we've gone to where they're like, we can't, we can't valet Cyber truck. You can park it right here and leave it up front. And so I just park it and then I get a preferred parking space, basically. But it's because the company doesn't want people joyriding in cyber trucks because they're all going to want to post pictures. So they said no one's allowed to go in them. So when I park, I've got a Model 3, a Model S and. And a cyber truck. When they've, when they are getting valeted, I open my app and you can. At any time, at any time, you can open your app and look at all the cameras on your car. I can look at my cabin right now. So when I got a valet going in it, the camera turns off the moment he sits down. Why? Seriously, why? Elon? Why?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

It is weird.

[Phil Labonte]

It's my car. They're a valet. I'm letting them use it. I want to make sure they're not rifling through my stuff. Right?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

My guesstimation is. So I don't know if you guys know this, but like Maryland, Virginia, there's several states where you have to have two party consent explicitly to record someone or to videotape them. I don't know if you guys know why that exists.

[Phil Labonte]

That's audio because, not video.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's video too, in Virginia and Maryland, because that's where Linda Tripp and Monica Lewinsky were. That's why that law passed there. But. But my guess is it's because some states are very explicit in those laws and they just don't want to run afoul of them. But if it's your car, then I don't see why.

[Phil Labonte]

Right.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

If it's your personal, personal property, your.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Car, there's no expectation of privacy in your car.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, I don't, I don't. Maybe Virginia, but typically video doesn't fall under one one party consent restrictions. It's audio recording, which is specifically does.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Not have audio too. It's just video.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, it's just video. Okay, so the issue with party consent is are you, are you party to the conversation? If there's no conversation being recorded, video is fine. And that would also create problems for surveillance cameras outside of restaurants or even inside of buildings. So which literally happens in Chicago. Kid you not.

[Tim Pool]

So you have to be actually involved in the conversation for it to, for the, for you to have to require.

[Phil Labonte]

So there's. There's two party, one. There's one party, two party and all party consent states. Yeah, I think DC Is one party consent. No, no, no. Yeah, I think DC is two party, one party Consent means no, no, it might be one party. One party means that if I'm sitting down with Cody here, I can record without his knowledge because I am part of the conversation and I consent to the recording if it's a two party consent. What's funny is when they passed these laws, they intended for two party to mean, like, everybody in the conversation is aware because you're talking to somebody. But then people started arguing. There's five people in the conversation and two of us agree to record.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

This is one party.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. So this is one party.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Because the issue that came up with Nick Sorter when he, when he, when he got that recording of Swalwell.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Was the question of whether or not he was in the conversation. And I said, bro, you're in public. There is no party consent. Because literally everybody in the room was party that conversation.

[Tiffany Cianci]

There's no expectation of privacy in public.

[Phil Labonte]

Right. So there's all party consent states where anybody involved, they all have to agree. You'll find them places like Illinois where they will put you in prison because they are a crooked and corrupt state. The only reason to have those laws is because they're corrupt. Not entirely. To be fair, there's espionage laws like there. I'm not, I'm not a big fan. It's. It's tough between one and one and two party or all party. Me personally, if I'm having a private conversation with something about something personal and they're secretly recording me like I had I known that was happening, I wouldn't want that to happen. And I'm not talking about untoward behavior like, by all means, expose the people, journalists who are doing this. That's totally different. I'm saying, like, how, how messed up would it be if you're talking to someone explaining like a family member with cancer that no one knows about and we're now in financial struggles and I'm embarrassed, and then they're like, oh, I got this is going to be great, and they start spreading it around. So there are reasons why states ban that other than corruption, but for the most part, don't talk about things in public or with people you don't trust.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, trust is the big one there. If you don't trust someone, don't tell them your inner secrets or what's going on with your life and whatnot. Right, Cody?

[Cody McIntyre]

Yeah. I've told you too much, haven't I, Raymond?

[Tiffany Cianci]

I was just thinking about the fact that I rent Teslas on Turo all the time, and I'm wondering how many times People looked at me.

[Tim Pool]

You went what?

[Tiffany Cianci]

I rent them on?

[Phil Labonte]

Oh yeah, dude. Everything you did was recorded.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I know.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah. For all last year I was going to. Not last year, I'm sorry, the. In 23. I was going to LA regularly to, to do stuff and, and I was renting a Tesla every time I went out there. The Model 3. That's a big part of the reason why I wanted to get a Tesla for myself is because we gotta, we.

[Phil Labonte]

Gotta jump to at least one more segment here. We have this, we have this clip from CNN. This is massive. Nick Adams says Kevin O'Leary nails it on multiple points. Listen to this. I'm going to set this one up. Kevin O'Leary points out two things. The arsonist, the attacks on Tesla should go to prison. But more importantly, when Tim Waltz was cheering for the Tesla stock going down. Minnesota has 1.6 million shares of Tesla in its pension fund. Holy crap. Listen to this point. One, when you set a car on fire, you should go to jail. You're a criminal.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Any context.

[Phil Labonte]

I don't think we have to talk about it in any other context. And all those cars have cameras in them and those dealerships have cameras. You're beyond being stupid when you do that. You're going to go to jail. And you now have a government that just got their mandate. They can't wait to find idiots that do this. You're going to spend five to 20 years in prison. If they get them on terrorism, which I think is a stretch, they will have no parole, no shortened sentence. They'll rot in hell in prison for 20 years. And frankly, as far as I'm concerned, that's okay. Breaking in, shooting a car, setting on fire. Nothing to do with the politics, nothing to do with Tesla. You are a criminal and you should go. What about the broader question about the protest factor? I mean, you heard Tim. What protest? I'm talking about Tim Walsh and his comments about the Tesla stock. He says it gives him a boost to see that stock going down. Poor guy didn't check his portfolio in his own pension plan for State. It's beyond stupid what he did. He's talking down a 3 1/2% weighting in his own pension plan. I mean, what's the matter with that guy? He doesn't check the well being of his own constituents in his statement. That's their investment. What a BOZO. The minute. 1.6 million in their pension fund as of last, the end of last June. So July 1st. There is, there's a question. Maybe they sold it all out at its peak and turned a fat profit because it skyrocketed in value. I doubt it. They probably held on to it. Maybe they sold when it dropped down quite a bit. They also hold, I think, a couple hundred thousand in a general investment fund of some sort.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Someone should show them how much they have in private equity.

[Phil Labonte]

That's absolutely insane. These leftists that are cheering and gloating for this stuff, they really have no idea they're talking about. And they're celebrating the demise of their own constituents and themselves.

[Tim Pool]

I mean, you're really, you, you talked about it the other night, that it's just, it's almost suicidal rage that, that he, you know, it doesn't matter who gets hurt if it's, if it's his friends or whatever, just so long as bad things happen to the people I don't like and that. You see that on the left a lot nowadays.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's really become the snake that's eating itself. Let's just talk about, let's just talk about. First of all, my channel's deeply purple. I have people from both sides that watch everything I do. And most of what I talk about is very like populist in nature. It's got a lot of appeal to both sides. But when you talk about the fact that the left, the left was the party of health food and vegans and, and like healthy living, and they were the, they were the party of, of we want the electric cars and we want, and they've literally forfeited all, all of that in a matter of months saying, this is not us anymore.

[Phil Labonte]

What are you?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Are you the party of McDonald's and we want more gas? Like, what are you then? What are you? They don't know what they are. And that's really the biggest problem they have. They are literally, they are adrift with, with no, no port. They have no, no direction. They have no navigator. And that's really the problem.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They're the party of anger and, and being mad about everything, that's, that doesn't go their way.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, and that's something that we've been talking about on the, on the, on the show here is the fact that because the left has no leader and they have no. I mean, they've, they've given up the middle class, they've given up the working class. They're the party of the super wealthy and the extremely poor and they use the extremely poor and the super wealthy against the middle and working class in the United States. And that's why MAGA is, is so has so many people that are, you know, just middle class and working class people. They're like, look, you guys don't care about us. You're all wrapped up in this identity stuff. You're, you're focusing on the margins. They're focusing on LGBT people on, on racial issues and stuff that before the left became ascendant, a lot of these racial issues that, that people talk about nowadays, most of America had kind of thought that it was, they were a thing of the past. We had gotten to a point where in a good portion of America was like, you know what, maybe we don't have a problem with racism anymore. Maybe it's a, maybe there's a small part of America that, that has a problem with it, but most of us don't. That, that was the feeling that most people had when Barack Obama was elected. And the left has totally abandoned all of the middle class, all the working class, all the people that they were supposed to champion in favor of racial grievance, grievance over sexuality, men versus women. They have, and they've, they've totally destroyed the Democrat Party as it used to be. And so now they have no idea who they are.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I had somebody say something to me just, just a few days ago, actually, on this exact line of thinking. They were the party of tech, they were the party of the unions, they were the party of the middle class. And at this point, they are, they are a party. And this is the way they described it to me. They said that the left has become a party of infinite revolution.

[Tim Pool]

Yes.

[Tiffany Cianci]

They're constantly chasing a revolution because they don't have any direction to serve where they are.

[Tim Pool]

The message is not the message.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And that's what I was. And I thought about that and I'm like, you know, yeah, yeah. Now I, I very much like my, my entire channel is about saying we're not left versus right. We should be up versus down. That we have an up versus down problem in this country.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And that we have corporate capture of both sides of our government. The Republicans have managed to capture a significant and increasingly large section of the working class. To keep it, they're gonna have to change a lot of what they do, too. A lot of that populist evidence change.

[Tim Pool]

But to be fair, Donald Trump, they have direction. Donald Trump is that change. Because before Donald Trump, you had your Mitt Romney's private equity firms, you had your John McCain's, you had your, your, your sensible Republicans, people like Bill Kristol, who's now not a Republican, but he was he was a Republican. He was one of the people that was all for the Iraq war. Those were the people that. People that. That were hated as Republicans. And then when Donald Trump came in, he totally reshaped what the party was. And the left hate him because he actually took the people that were Bernie fans and he took them into the MAGA party. There were people that liked Bernie. And because Bernie has no spine at all, because he was too weak to be a leader, they moved to Donald Trump. And Donald Trump has the populist center. I mean, center. Right. Honestly. But the working class that.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Who I talk about, this Bernie.

[Phil Labonte]

Bernie has no spine because he's some kind of scarecrow. And he's like, you know, it's a wooden post.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And did Trump get like 9 million of the Obama voters?

[Phil Labonte]

Yes, he did. Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

But in 2016, yes, Bernie had. I personally was affiliated with a lot of Bernie supporters. The ones that marched all the way to the convention to cast those electoral votes for him. And I will tell you that the never Hillary's crossed from Bernie to Trump and delivered Trump that year.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Period. Absolutely, they did. And I talk about this all the time. Do you guys know that Bernie is like, six foot three?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No.

[Phil Labonte]

Bernie Sanders.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yes, he is. Look it up.

[Phil Labonte]

What?

[Tiffany Cianci]

He's huge.

[Phil Labonte]

I've met him before.

[Tiffany Cianci]

He's super tall. He's like over six feet tall. I always picture him as, like, five foot four, but he's not. He's super tall.

[Phil Labonte]

Six feet.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

I met him before that way.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Like, when you think of Mittens 3.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

He's like. He's like, really? Well, I'm short, but, like, I always pictured him as, like, my size.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I gotcha.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And the mittens.

[Phil Labonte]

I did not look like he's.

[Tim Pool]

He looks like his shoulders. He looks like his shoulders start where his ears are.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

You know, I seen an article. Article.

[Phil Labonte]

He's a flat six, and then he's a little hunched over, because when I met him, he's like the same height as me.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Are you six feet tall? I don't know.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm five, five, ten.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I am very small. I am not.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm five, eleven and a half.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I was like, huh. Then I met Ian Carroll, who's like, you know, six, eight. And I was like, huh, six, eight, six, seven or six, eight? My brother's six'seven he's about the same height.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

All right.

[Phil Labonte]

When. When Ian Carroll came in, he was his.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

He was.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Hitting his head on the lights.

[Tiffany Cianci]

His pants are always too short because they don't make them long enough.

[Phil Labonte]

He was adjusting the cables for us on the studio lights.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, I appreciate it, Ian.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I was on shot. I was on Sean Mike Kelly's podcast last week, and I brought you. And he filmed one right after me, and I took a picture with both of them because Sean Kelly, he's is six 12ft tall. Five or six? Six. And Ian is six seven.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, Shannon.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Six seven or six, eight.

[Phil Labonte]

He's never been on.

[Tiffany Cianci]

He's really tall.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Okay.

[Tim Pool]

That's huge.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

12Ft tall because there's a guy like six. His name. His name was, like, literally seven three something.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, you mean six, seven, Kevin.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, yeah. Six, seven, Kevin. Okay.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Okay.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, that guy was adjusting our lights for us. I mean, it's a standard ceiling, but when you're up there, it's like, we could use the help. Otherwise, I gotta get. I gotta get a stool. Yeah. But it is funny when people don't know this, that Charlie, Kirk and Vosh are both like, six. Five.

[Tiffany Cianci]

What?

[Tim Pool]

Yes.

[Tiffany Cianci]

No way.

[Tim Pool]

Really?

[Phil Labonte]

Yes. Huh.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's so weird. Someone on TV and you just assume.

[Phil Labonte]

And so there's a picture of me with them, and I'm 5 10, and they're both like, 6 5. So I look real short. And then we did. Elijah came over, and I was making fun of David Portnoy, and I like, David Port. I'm a big fan. But he had those. All those photos that went viral where he's on his tippy toes. And so when Elijah was like, we get a photo. I was like, yeah, let me do the Dave Portnoy. It's a joke. But he actually posted the photo. And then liberals don't know what, like, they don't get the joke. So they're like, look at Tim Pool trying to make himself look taller. He's so short. So then when Elijah came back, he was like, don't worry, I'll make it up to you. And then he took his shoes off and put his knees in. His shoes.

[Tim Pool]

Still have the pictures on my phone. They came out great.

[Phil Labonte]

And then I'm all tall and I'm like, yeah, it was.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Funerals have no humor. Like, they don't get anything. They take everything at face value.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, dude, it's. It's crazy. I, I, I go to all these liberal subreddits. It's, It's a, It's a treasure trove of, of information and content. That's how we find our videos, you know?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And just reading these people's comments, it's insane how dumb they are. I Bet it's crazy like we talked about on the show where they thought that Anonymous was a real group.

[Tim Pool]

God.

[Phil Labonte]

And they're going like, wow, I hope Anonymous doesn't do this, that or otherwise. And I'm like, oh my God, did they not Google this?

[Tim Pool]

Of course not.

[Phil Labonte]

Okay, but then there's one recently on one of the liberal subreds where they're like these maggots, as they call them. Maggots. Think, think that there's actually 300 year olds getting Social Security checks. Are they dumb? People don't live that long. And then it's like. And I'm reading it like, are you kidding? And there's comments where they're like, are they so stupid? Social Security didn't even exist back then. And it's like, they're really that dumb. Guys, please. If you see this, the issue is the database is corrupted. Not that Elon thinks there's a 300-year-old man getting a check. It's concerns about whether or not they're properly tracking the database, why it's not clean. And then someone said, I bet it's just because it's cost prohibitive to delete someone's name from the database. No, it isn't. It. Delete. You could like, you could. Look, the fact that they work at a mine shaft for government documents, whatever that retirement thing is, where like they bring the folders into it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's nuts.

[Phil Labonte]

Was it a limestone cavern or something?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Have you ever covered the underground cheese cave, what the government owns where they have cheat. Yeah, government cheese. Where government cheese actually comes from. We have a giant cave underground filled with billions of pounds of cheese.

[Tim Pool]

Billions of pounds still, though.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Hundreds of millions. Billions. It's a lot of pounds of cheese still. No, right now.

[Phil Labonte]

Wow. I knew, I knew it. I thought by now it'd be gone.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Like, we have processed billions of pounds of cheese through this cave.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Well, how stupid they are and dumb they are. I'm so surprised. It's in Missouri, by the way. How they are even close to even winning any elections or winning anything. They're like, they're close. Like they're not far away. And they're so dumb.

[Phil Labonte]

It's a limestone mine.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Our word.

[Phil Labonte]

It's a USDA limestone mine. Storage facility for processed cheese products.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yep.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. Government cheese came from the excess cheese they were giving to welfare recipients. I mean, come on, bro. If you gave me like a big block of Velveeta, I'd be stoked. I'm seeing at home and the government shows up the postman's like, here's your cheese. I'd be like this.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I grew up on welfare in a foster household, and we did not get cheese. We did not get fancy things.

[Phil Labonte]

We used to got ramen. We used to get the big block of Velveeta from Aldi. You guys ever have that?

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah. There's no cheese in that.

[Phil Labonte]

No. I don't know what it is, but it's really good.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Really good.

[Phil Labonte]

You just cut a slice and you put it between. Between bread, and then you put ketchup on it.

[Tiffany Cianci]

You mix it with rotel and put it in the microwave, and then you dip chips in it.

[Tim Pool]

Everyone knows that.

[Phil Labonte]

Everyone knows that.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Speaking of welfare, hopefully RFK and Trump makes people. You can't buy fatty foods with welfare anymore.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Did you see that hearing?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I. Yeah, I did. That's what.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Where the American Heart association was like, we cannot stop them from buying soda and. And chips. And one of the senators was like, do you understand what you're testifying on? Because I am shocked. And the American Heart Association. Then you look where American Heart association gets all their funding from. It's Coke, it's Pepsi Cola, and it's like McDonald's. And they're getting paid, literally, to keep the problem. Like, let's just. Let's just say if we solved heart disease, would they still have jobs? I'm just saying. Do you know that the American. The Diabetes association, they took money from Coca Cola or Pepsi Cola, I don't remember which one, to stop objecting to having the sodas available in all the hospitals. There was a bill that was being passed to remove soda from the hospitals, and they pulled. They removed their objections because they took money from pepsi.

[Phil Labonte]

I think RFK Jr should hold a press conference, rip his shirt off. We are banning all of the junk food. No more Taco bell, no more McDonald's. You will eat salads and steak. Then he starts handing out steaks. Filet mignon, medium.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Children, I'm going to that meeting.

[Phil Labonte]

The children.

[Tim Pool]

Yes.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's go to super chats, my friends, if you haven't already, which. Kindly smash that like button. Share the show with everyone. You know, for each like we get on this show, it represents symbolically how many years in prison Fauci will get. So I figured out the way to get people to smash the like button. Because before I was like, smash the like button. You know, whatever. And then people were like, sure, I guess. Whatever. And then I was like, it's how many years Fauci should be in prison? And now we're getting like 20,000 likes. Everyone's just like, I can't smash it enough. We're going to have an uncensored call in show in about 20 minutes at rumble.com/timcast IRL for all you guys who are Rumble Premium members. So sign up at Rumble Premium. Use promo code TIM10. Not so family friendly, but always fun and funny. And y'all, the members of our discord [e-mail] can call in and talk to us and our guest. Well, let's read your super chats. Shane H. Wilder says. Hey, gang, yesterday y'all were talking about the advancements in robotics and AI. I recommend Age of Spiritual Machines by ray Kurzweil from 1991. Of his 147 predictions, all but three have happened within a year of his predictions. Wow. Whoa. If we had $20,000 to drop, we could buy one of those human robots. Yeah, I'd rather get the Atlas one, though. I want to fight it.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I like the dog that blows the flames out of everything. Yeah, I like that guy.

[Phil Labonte]

Those dogs, like, there's the heck out.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Of me robot that, like, shoots flames.

[Phil Labonte]

The human robots you can buy right now are like 20 grand. And they're. They're garbage. They just walk. They don't do anything.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And it's like you can kick it and it won't fall over, but I don't know, what's the point of having it. Apparently you can program it to do simple tasks, but it. It's not AI. The Atlas one is crazy. It's doing, like, rolls.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's a breakdancing one.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, the break dancing one. The robot dogs, however, you can buy, and they're like 10 grand. And they patrol.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

So you can actually have them walk around the property, and then they walk to the charger when they're low and charge themselves.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I want that one. That's the one I want. I want that.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Imagine, like, friend of the show Luke filmed one at Mar a Lago.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, I saw that. Yeah. But I'm just imagining, like, here on the. At the. At the studio, someone's trying to, like, sneak in, and then just a whole bunch of robot dogs are chasing them and the guy screaming, and then they start just, like, trampling. It's like, get out of here. All right. Anyway, Isaac Vanderbilt says the quartering is having to sell all his stuff for money. What? He just said he was poor and needed money.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I know he's selling cookbooks and stuff like that for a new studio, but.

[Phil Labonte]

I feel, like, pretty sure he's rich. Yeah, his, his show.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

He's built a house.

[Phil Labonte]

I've been to his house.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm jealous of it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Got a new one.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No, he did like two years ago. He built a brand new spot up in Wisconsin.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tim Pool]

He hasn't. He has a whole other job outside of YouTube and stuff too, if I understand. Yeah, like he, he, he had his, his actual business and job and he built the quartering and, and had started his coffee business before he even, like, I mean, while he was doing his other job that was, you know, paid well as well. So I don't know. No, I'm not saying he stopped that job.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

All right, now I could do this full time.

[Phil Labonte]

Michael Guinness says. Yo, Tim, you hear about the underground structures they just found under the pyramids in Egypt? Alex Jones did a segment on it. It's legit.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Wait, what?

[Tiffany Cianci]

This last night on Club Maha.

[Phil Labonte]

What's going on under the, under the pyramids? There's.

[Tiffany Cianci]

So they found, I think eight. No, they found eight cylindrical structures. They're not sure if they're empty or full. They're solid. And they go down 2 kilometers.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Geez.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Into the sand. 2 kilometers. And then there is a coil, some people are saying a staircase wrapped around each one and there are cylinders. And then on top of the cylinders within the pyramid are five individual chambers, like five stories high, made of red granite. They use this special, like, imaging software that can see down underground, like miles. And two kilometers down there are these big cylinders and there's like eight of them.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I got to look.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And the coils around them.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I mean, Alex Jones.

[Phil Labonte]

Oh, yeah, look at that.

[Tiffany Cianci]

It's crazy. And they're saying that they're trying to get it peer reviewed as fast as possible because everyone is talking about it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I mean, don't we think they had electricity back in the day?

[Tiffany Cianci]

So I was on with Dustin on Club Maha last night and he said that to him. He's big on conspiracy talk, right? He and Ian were talking about it and they were like, that is a battery structure. That is a coil, and that is a charging station. You could say whatever you. That is a battery. That is battery architecture. That is power generating is what that is. And I was like, I don't know. But he was very sure.

[Tim Pool]

Well, yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Huh. I have to look into it. We'll. We'll try and figure that one out.

[Tim Pool]

Extremely interesting indeed.

[Phil Labonte]

Anne Marie says that's not, that's now what Jeremy said. Do you mean that's not what he said? It's not what he said.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I'm sure he didn't. I watched him.

[Phil Labonte]

Everyone's occupant 42 says waiting for a freeze peach skateboard. That's a good idea.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Freeze peach.

[Phil Labonte]

Hey, Jessica's probably listening. Should we design a frozen peach and put freeze peach?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

What does that mean?

[Phil Labonte]

It means free speech.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Oh, I like it. Say yes.

[Phil Labonte]

All right. Jamie Bracket says I'll fill in for the guest on my way. How long is the drive from Connecticut? Seven hours.

[Tim Pool]

Seven? Well, six and a half.

[Phil Labonte]

Six and a half?

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, it's like seven and a half to New Hampshire and depending on where.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Well, if you're at the border outside New York, you can do it in four. Depends on where you are.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, you can. You got to get pretty heavy on the pedal, though, to get.

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's what I did. I live closer here, but I was at work, so I had a hole.

[Phil Labonte]

What have we here? Ces? Sitting here in the hospital with my wife and my newborn son a few hours ago, wanted to join in on the tradition of commenting from the hospital.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Congratulations, brother.

[Phil Labonte]

Very amazing.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

One of the best traditions online on shows and podcasts to go on.

[Phil Labonte]

The people just always super chatting, being like.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And you did, too. Everyone does.

[Phil Labonte]

Had to do it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

The. The baby currently is at home fat and happy.

[Tim Pool]

Good stuff.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Very good.

[Phil Labonte]

Let's see. Marcus M. Said Tim Elon deleted 3.2 million 120 plus year olds from Social Security. How will vampires, liches, and Democrat voters afford the cost of unaliving now?

[Tim Pool]

Unreal.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I'll invest in private equity.

[Phil Labonte]

And this is the funny thing, like, Elon. Elon did not come out and say, we are paying people who claim to be 100. He said the database has a list of all of these people. That's crazy, right? My interpretation immediately was the database does not get cleaned up. The whole thing is a hodgepodge mess. There is. There are concerns that people die and their families keep cashing their checks because when a person is getting Social Security and they're infirm or whatever, they'll have a family member do it for them. That's called fraud.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

When I worked the welfare office, I would got stuff like it'd be like eight, nine, ten months later of the death certificate to know, like, to take them off of getting food stamps and getting benefits. So, like, it can go a long time without people? I mean, no, I don't know, about 150 years. But if they don't report right away, we don't. We don't take them off. They still receive it.

[Tiffany Cianci]

My husband's a federal attorney, and at his agency, all I'm, I don't want to cause trouble for him and his agency. But, like, all I'm going to say is, like, if you think there's not infinite quantities of waste going on in every bureaucracy in our government, you don't understand our government. And at his agency, we're also seeing a lot of corruption from China in his agency.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Whoa.

[Tiffany Cianci]

A ton of it.

[Phil Labonte]

Wow.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And I, I, I'm just saying, like. And the leadership of his agency is actually actively undermining this administration.

[Phil Labonte]

Romy426 says. Hey, Tim, just curious on your Curious and fat. I think it's a typo. Your thoughts are. And President Trump bombing Yemen and Tulsa. Flipping on the issue.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Tulsi.

[Phil Labonte]

I'm going to try and fix that by saying curious what your thoughts are on President Trump bombing Yemen and Tulsi's flipping on the issue. I did not hear what Tulsi had to say. I can't really comment on it. We have not. So, so there's a lot of questions. First, are we bombing Yemen civilian targets, or are we bombing specifically armed militants in the Red Sea? Those are important distinctions. If we are actively engaged in commando raids, air airstrikes or whatever in Yemen, that is wrong. It should, should not be done. And the, and President Trump should not be doing it. And in fact, he told me, because the clip went viral, you don't need to do that. You can talk to them. I do believe that was before the Houthis started attacking cargo ships and, and blowing them up and stuff like that. So circumstances do change. I am no fan of military intervention in areas without congressional approval, but I can't say that I know enough about the specific targets, nor, like, exactly what's going on, nor what Tulsi said, other than I can just say, generally speaking, we shouldn't be bombing countries and I war with. And if the Houthis are causing problems, then Trump should simply issue a letter of mark and then we should not be sending the US Military to do it. We should be hiring private. Do you think it should be security forces? That's what market reprisal is for.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Do you think we're getting to a point where we're no longer going to have to have Congress to declare war? It's always going to be the president.

[Phil Labonte]

Are you serious? Yeah. That's World War II, baby.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's what I'm saying. Are we going to, are we getting to the point?

[Phil Labonte]

We're 70 years after it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, I was saying like where it's common practice.

[Phil Labonte]

It is.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, it is.

[Phil Labonte]

The war is not a war has not been declared by Congress since World War II. So Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq. Iraq again, take it back.

[Tim Pool]

I mean, you look at Israel, Ukraine.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Like some congressional support, though, right? Post 9 11, we got.

[Phil Labonte]

We got the authorization for use of.

[Tim Pool]

Military force, which they didn't have. They didn't have constitutional authority to do. They. They literally abdicated their authority, which the Constitution doesn't give them the power to say, hey, President, you can. You can decide. It's. It's Congress's responsibility. It's not. It's not a privilege. It's their responsibility. And they totally dropped the ball on that because they didn't want to go back to their constituents and actually say, I voted yes or no on this issue.

[Tiffany Cianci]

They only ever said one time on my channel before, and that is I'm with Marjorie Taylor Greene on this issue.

[Phil Labonte]

So we got Matt Rides. And just because I'm free, Matt Ride says, you shouldn't rumble. Rant. You should invite Brandon Herrera. He could follow you with his cyber truck, which is a 50 cal mounted on. Plus the armed guards. Radit Flair. Jessica's on free says, remember when Brandon Herrera put a 50 cal on a cyber truck to make it look like a warthog from Halo? He's got saying, that was awesome.

[Tim Pool]

It's sick.

[Phil Labonte]

Brandon Herrera is always welcome to come on the show. We're big fans.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

It was a great video.

[Phil Labonte]

Yep. Here's a good one. Mike S says, Trump is imposing the will of the people. Democrats are imposing their will on the people.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Based. I mean, that's catchy anyway. It's catchy.

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's catchy.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Inaccurate. Yeah.

[Tiffany Cianci]

That's a bumper sticker.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. Maybe we should make a T shirt.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Jessica.

[Tim Pool]

There you go.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, we'll see.

[Phil Labonte]

We get. We're making 28th Amendment T shirts.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Good.

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah. Yeah. The right to keep bear and breed chickens shall not be infringed.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I support this. Yes.

[Phil Labonte]

That's. That's my 20th amendment. That's my proposal for the 20th amendment that chickens being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep bear and breed chickens shall not be infringed. And the. The surface of it is a joke because chickens are awesome and they're hilarious. But the spirit of it is that the American people have a right to produce their own food. And right now, they don't. In most places, you can't have animals. You can't even have gardens. That's kind of crazy. And then you're dependent on this chemical machine state to eat your pills.

[Tiffany Cianci]

A thousand percent agree with you on that.

[Phil Labonte]

Like, it's kind of wild that we need supplements. People don't realize we used to eat dirt. I don't mean we literally would scoop up dirt and eat it. We'd pull things out of the ground and there'd be dirt on it, and the dirt had B vitamins and other bacteria and stuff, and we just eat it. But now we're like, scrub it.

[Tiffany Cianci]

I. Speaking of things that have been like, I just read an article today about an experiment that was done in another country where they gave as many families as they wanted them. Three chickens. They were allowed to have three chickens each. As many families as one of, like, 2,000 families. Three in one community took these three chickens. Okay. And within a year, they reduced waste because they were eating the kitchen waste. They reduced waste in the landfill by, like, a hundred thousand tons because the chickens were procreating and they were eating all the food waste, so they didn't have any trash.

[Phil Labonte]

The best thing about chickens.

[Tiffany Cianci]

And they were eating all the food.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

We need to send a bunch.

[Phil Labonte]

The best thing about chickens, they make more of themselves. Yes. If you just, like, leave them off to their business, you'll come back and there will be more of them and they'll be running around.

[Tiffany Cianci]

The worst thing about chickens is the rooster that lived in the house behind mine.

[Phil Labonte]

N. Roosters are based. Roosters are great. We got. We got many of them. We ate a bunch of them.

[Tiffany Cianci]

That rooster ruined so many videos. I was.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Maybe we still have some in the deep freezer, if I'm not mistaken.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, we used to. We used to have the chicken Chicken city right outside of Ian's window.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And. And like, he. He would. He was losing his mind because he. Because. Because the dude has an inverted sleep schedule. He. So when he was coming on the show, he would wake up at like, 6:30pm Take a shower, and then walk in in his pajamas, having his hair's.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

All wet and hair's all wet.

[Phil Labonte]

And people were complaining about it.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, were they?

[Phil Labonte]

Well, yeah, it was. It was like. It was clear that he didn't take care of himself. He was treating it like, I just got up in the morning. I don't know what's going on. Yeah, he. He turned it around. I'm not trying to drag.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, no doubt.

[Phil Labonte]

But he would go to bed at, like, four in the morning or five in the morning, and then the rooster at six in the morning, and he'd be like, that's kind of funny.

[Tiffany Cianci]

The rooster that lived behind me thought every pair of headlights that drove by the street was definitely the sun.

[Phil Labonte]

So all night long, Roosters Crow 24, 7.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah, it was intense.

[Phil Labonte]

Roosters are either sleeping or they're crowing. A lot of people think roosters crow when the sun comes up.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No, they're going.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Hey, we got the, we've got the, the, the. What are they called? The, the bonsai chickens. What are they called?

[Tiffany Cianci]

The other ones with the food fair.

[Phil Labonte]

No, the little bitty ones.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, I don't know. The little guys.

[Tim Pool]

What's the worst chickens?

[Phil Labonte]

Yeah, they're not really called bonsai chickens. Small ones.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Let me check. Small bonsai chickens.

[Tim Pool]

I don't know.

[Phil Labonte]

Chickens.

[Tiffany Cianci]

We have a herd of chickens.

[Phil Labonte]

No one's gonna tell me.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Historic block.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

And we have a herd, the bantams.

[Phil Labonte]

Bantams. There you go.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah, yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

Phantoms. Yeah, they're really tiny.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Those are good looking guys.

[Phil Labonte]

They can fly.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They're cool.

[Phil Labonte]

And the roosters, yeah, they do the same crap, but instead of going. And then you're just like, bro, you're scaring nobody.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I know.

[Phil Labonte]

They're just screaming, eat me.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I was in there today with Kim and they have, some of them have like a face mask on, like from silence. Instead of lambs.

[Phil Labonte]

It's a thing that goes on their nose so they can't see forward because they peck each other. And now they're like. And then when we would throw the food at them, they'd be like, hey, Edward Norton. So what's the.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

They're going to die of starvation then.

[Phil Labonte]

No, they can eat it. Just take. It's a little harder for them.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No doubt.

[Phil Labonte]

So we would throw, like, we would throw leftover sashimi from like on Fridays we get sushi. And then all the chickens run and they play, they play rugby with it. So if you have like, we've got 30 chickens, right? You throw a piece of salmon in and they'll get it and they all just chase each other and it's, it's, it's amazing.

[Tim Pool]

Yeah, they're fighting over.

[Phil Labonte]

That's why, that's why I keep saying I don't understand how depression exists if chickens exist as well. And I believe that what we should do is like, if some, if you know someone's depressed, bring them to a group of chickens and let them throw fish into the chicken coop. Yo, they'll be laughing in three seconds. You just can't, you can't help it. It's. It's Part of our evolution. It's why chickens are a part of human culture.

[Tiffany Cianci]

Dinosaurs to chickens. There it is. Now we know why they. They made it in the dinosaurs.

[Phil Labonte]

They're hilarious.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I tried to catch one earlier today. I'm close it.

[Phil Labonte]

You. You. You. You know how to pick up a chicken, right?

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

No.

[Phil Labonte]

You don't chase my hands. You don't chase it. You don't reach down for it. You crouch down and you put your hand under it, and you lift your hand up and they scoop right up. And they look at you and they're just looking down like, what just happened.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I know how to do that. You put them down and you put that line down. And it's supposed to hypnotizes them. I haven't tried that yet, but I like to.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, you shouldn't, because it messes. It gets bad for him.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Oh, yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

So, you know.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

But Roberto was hypnotized a couple times, and he's. He's like three or four years old now. That's crazy. Yeah. Like, I think is, like, what, the only original chicken we have left. Roberto and Sarah.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

I don't know. But there's a couple ladies that have been around. I'm not sure if they're still around or not.

[Phil Labonte]

Maybe Margaret's still there. She was the og. I don't think she lays eggs anymore. Yeah, I gotta pick up eggs now.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That I just got a carton today, ladies and gentlemen.

[Phil Labonte]

Gotta make sure there's eggs left over because I gotta make waffles tomorrow.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

You got you. There's at least two. There's a bunch over there.

[Phil Labonte]

Every morning I make my wife breakfast because she is. She has to feed the baby, I have to feed the wife. That's it. Good trade. Good trade. That's what we do. And I added whey protein this morning as I got to make sure the missus gets the good protein and. Well. And the baby's got to get the good protein, too, after the fact. Let's grab a couple more super chats here. Patrick Bannon says, do you think Abe Lincoln worried about that they are using our systems against us. I have one question for you. If not now, when? So the point is, Abraham Lincoln is the most popular president in history. When people are asked over and over again, they all say Abraham Lincoln. And as you all know, Abraham Lincoln arrested the. A large portion of the Maryland legislature went to the state and had their government arrested because they were voting in favor of the Confederacy. Yeah. He suspended habeas corpus in a corridor stretching from Pennsylvania to D.C. because Maryland was Confederate sympathetic and they were people who were minding their own business, who got arrested without charge or trial and were held for years during the Civil War. Just didn't matter. You were here. We don't know or care. You're getting locked up.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

That's been a question we've asked ourselves for so long. If not now, when? You know what I mean.

[Phil Labonte]

Well, I. My view is if anything happens, the left is starting it. Like the right has continually begged not for nothing to happen.

[Raymond G. Stanley Jr.]

Yeah.

[Phil Labonte]

And what we get now is the left is clapping and cheering and celebrating terror attacks. Trump won a political process and is trying to implement the will of his voters. And they are obstructing him with administrative attacks and violent attacks, even assassination attempts during his presidential campaign. So what I think is likely gonna happen in the next several months is the left is gonna escalate dramatically. The right will likely just respond to whatever that is with elected law enforcement duly elected. You know, Dan Bongino has already announced they are going after these swatters and these arsonists. We'll see. Ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna go to that uncensored calling show. You don't want to miss it. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Uncensored. And I just want to give you guys the count because I said the number of likes that we get in the show is how many years in prison fouche you will get. We currently have 13, 200. That's a lot of years in prison for the man.

And if you guys are into like asking for things of your government, convince Trump to close the carried interest loophole and maybe we can make a difference. He's offering. He says he wants to do it. He's going to need some incentive. He's going to need to know that's what we want.
