Trump To SHUTTER 120 IRS Offices In MASS PURGE, Democrat LEAKED Tax Info w/Mike Crispi
Loading summary
Tim Pool
Donald Trump's administration will shutter 120 IRS offices. And you know, I gotta tell you, the corporate press is trying to make it sound like a bad thing and they're saying, but these are gonna be places that have, that have assistance centers for people who, who need help filing their taxes. So it's kind of like the people who's beating you over the head with second quarters are offer you assistance and how you get beaten over to his headquarters and we're supposed to be sad about it. Please, Democrats, corporate press keep defending the IRS because I am here for it. We got that story and we got a couple other weird ones. This one you may have seen the other day. Apple, they've acknowledged that if you used their voice to text service when you would say the word racist, it would show Trump then racist. Now I bring this one up even though I know this was the other day the story came out because there's another story that went viral today. Numerous prominent left wing organizations, liberal organizations were sharing a audio of Donald Trump Jr. And this is exactly what I warned about. It wasn't anything crazy like Don Jr. Admitting to breaking the law or doing drugs. It was an AI audio where he said something like, why would we even want to be allies with Ukraine? We should have sent Russia the weapons. And the reason it was clever is that it sounds like an off the cuff statement which is still damaging to one's reputation. But he never said it. Now all these let liberals are deleting en masse, panicking because they were very seriously defaming the man. But it's only just begun. The AI fake video insanity is upon us and audio. And we're going to get into all that stuff. We got a lot to talk about. And don't forget, cast brew.com is always available. Delicious. Casper coffee. Well, unfortunately, Ian's Graphene.

Mike Crispy
Oh, what is going on, Tim? Mike Crispy. It's good to be back. I am a surrogate for President Trump in New Jersey. President of the Italian American Civil Rights League, and I host the show on Rubble every day. Mike Crispy, unafraid. Great to be back.
Tim Pool
Right on. Thanks for coming. Chuck is hanging out. He's here. His debut.
Chuck
Hello, friends. I just try not to break the show or anything, but I host the Green Room. I also do some of the Gamermade stuff before the Green Room. Really excited to be on the show. Just trying to do my best.
Tim Pool
So we brought back the Green Room show, which was our behind the scenes, you know, like guests up, just roll the cameras. And Chuck's always here. And so he ends up sitting there talking with all the guests. And it went pretty well. And we were like, chuck, you should come on and promote the Green Room show on Rumble Premium. And Chuck went, oh boy, I don't want to lose my job. And then he sat down pretty much.
Chuck
Yeah. You know, I mean, the Green Room's great. We talk about a wild, you know, wide range of subjects and stuff. Like today was pretty spicy, pretty fun. I think you guys should check it out. You know, worth the.
Tim Pool
It's uncensored because it's, you know, not so family friendly. Chuck.
Phil Labonte
Chuck is a phenomenal conversationalist. Absolutely. So I'm Phil that remains Philip and D, lead singer, the heavy metal band all that Remains. Anti communist, counter revolutionary. Let's get started.
Tim Pool
Here we go, ladies and gentlemen, from The Washington Post, IRS to close more than 110 offices with taxpayer Assistance Centers. The plan is outlined in a letter from the U.S. general Services Administration that was obtained by the Washington Post. Now, I'm just going to pause real quick. Notice how they have to add that little caveat at the end with Taxpayer Assistance Centers. I don't care. I don't care if they got a kinkos in them, their IRS offices. I don't care if they're shut down. Nobody likes the irs. But the Washington Post needed to add that caveat because they're trying to make the IRS look good.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, I mean, look, I feel like, you know, I don't want to steal lines from people, but, you know, the winning just doesn't stop. I mean, this is because, yo, I'm.
Tim Pool
Sorry, it's like Ron Paul must be sitting in a chair being like, yep.
Phil Labonte
I mean, literally 12 months ago, everyone is thinking, oh, there's going to be 87,000 new IRS agents and man, they're going to be going after everybody. They're going to go after anybody that has, that's, that's made more than $600 for anything. So if you sold something for $1,000, you literally could be on the hook to the IRS for it.
Chuck
Like, not.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, you know, and, and, and that's honestly, the IRS and the government more broadly should not be in the business of ruining American people's lives. This idea that the IRS is some kind of service that people, you know, aren't terrified of dealing with is ridiculous, first of all. Second of all, there's people on the left love to, to make remarks like, well, you know, they're going to go after the millionaires and the billionaires, but they're not going to do any of that. They're going to go after people that make less than $100,000 a year because those people don't have the money to fight to hire an actual lawyer and that the IRS has admitted that, that they go after those people because that's actually where the money is.
Tim Pool
So they say. The Trump administration plans to shutter more than 110 IRS offices that have Taxpayer Assistance Centers. The plan outlined in a Tuesday letter. Blah, blah, blah. They're basically saying that when these leases are terminated or not renewed, when they expire, their lease is terminated, not when they expire. According to a list include in the GSA's letter. It is unclear whether the assistance centers, which provide free in person help for tax filers on an appointment basis, will relocate or simply close. Do you guys know that H and R Block is free Yep. Yeah, I think. What's the, what's the other one? It's H and R Block. HR Block. And the other one is.
Chuck
Oh, I should know. This is taxing.
Tim Pool
You definitely should.
Chuck
The other one, they have TurboTax Online, which is pretty much free, but the other.
Tim Pool
Oh, I can't remember.
Chuck
H and R Block's the big one. Yeah, I'm trying to think of the.
Mike Crispy
Other one, but the government isn't helping anybody do anything. All they do is wait for you to file and then if you don't get it right, they send you a letter saying we know exactly how much you owed and now you owe it to us with penalties. So the whole thing.
Chuck
Yeah, but they won't tell you how much.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, but they won't tell you how much you owe.
Tim Pool
Jackson. Jackson Hewitt. Yeah. That's a big one.
Mike Crispy
Yeah. So it's great.
Tim Pool
I just want to mention they have to provide a free basic service because of the way the law works. So in order to have these private, special, you know, interest corporations that do taxes, they. My understanding, I could be wrong. But the way the lobbying is, they lobby the government to make sure that tax filing is not automated and difficult. That's at least the story. Whatever, whatever it may be, you can get free tax assistance from any one of these companies. It's like your basic filing is free automated software. They're trying to make it seem like Trump shuddering bloat especially the IRS is a bad thing. Lord help me, they are paving the way for a blowout in the midterms.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, they're paving the way for Republicans not to lose in 50 years. Cuz like, what is more popular in polling than paying less taxes and the IRS not having more people to come after you when you owe pennies. You said it really good right there. It's like the people who have money, who have even just a couple million bucks, they know how to shelter it and put it into trust and put bank accounts offshore and all that stuff. Regular people, small business owners. Those are the ones who the 87,000 IRS agents are trying to screw over and go after.
Tim Pool
So I mean, this is just, just, just real quick, real quick, you guys of. I have a list here from Pew. I don't want to see it no more. I see it. Of the federal agencies that the Pew Research has, has dug into, it is many. Which agency do you believe has the highest unfavorability and the lowest favorability?
Phil Labonte
Irs.
Mike Crispy
Irs.
Tim Pool
Was it even a hard question? Should I have even asked? Indeed, the National Park Service is the Most favorable. And I got to admit, I like those guys.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, Good guys.
Tim Pool
And the post office, NASA, the CDC actually is largely favorable.
Mike Crispy
The post office is favorable.
Tim Pool
I mean, it is. Yeah, I know that. Surprising.
Phil Labonte
Know why? Because your, your mailman is actually nice. And that's the, the person that you deal with the most when you go to the post office. Especially like if you're in a smaller town or whatever. Like, the people that work in my post office are just wonderful people. I love them to death, you know, I mean, so like, that's the kind of the deal. People know those people, they go, they're fine.
Tim Pool
This poll is from last summer, too, and it ain't even a contest. The lowest favorability is Department of Education, Department of Justice and the irs. And there's not a comparison. Department of Education and Department of justice are minus one point. IRS is minus 12. Like, there's no question is the least popular federal agency. And the media and the Democrats are like, please protect our IRS agents, dude. Midterms are going to come around and every Republican is going to be like, donald Trump shut down IRS offices. Who cares why he did? Democrats wanted to keep him open. Who cares why they wanted him open?
Mike Crispy
They were offering tax assistance centers, though. Don't you realize he's going to make it harder for you to have to pay less?
Phil Labonte
The only tax assistance I want is less taxes.
Mike Crispy
Exactly.
Phil Labonte
You know, Exactly.
Chuck
But they also offer different, like voluntary. Like there's this thing called Vita where you can. There's a tax assistance center not associated with the IRS directly, but there's different options out there that you can go and seek and find. So it's.
Tim Pool
So we should close those too.
Phil Labonte
Those are ideally, yes.
Chuck
Get rid of taxes.
Mike Crispy
He's going to, he's going to shut down the IRS completely, he said, and start the ers, the External Revenue Service. Okay, get rid of the irs, start the ers. No taxes, income wise and do tariffs. I think the people are excited about it.
Tim Pool
What if this, like, I mean, it's been a month. What if this literally is Trump's opening salvo to eventually getting rid of the irs?
Mike Crispy
Let's go.
Phil Labonte
I mean, I don't think that you're going to have a significant complaint from, from the American people.
Tim Pool
Nope.
Phil Labonte
You know, especially particularly if they can fund the government in other ways. Right. So. So they've cut the government enough so that way the, the money that they need to run the government can be raised in other ways. Most people won't notice. A a and I'm not going to I'm not going to predict. I'm just going to say, if most people don't notice a significant change in their life, why would anyone complain?
Tim Pool
I got to be honest, too. Like, we don't need an irs even, even if we keep taxes the way they are, the way it would work is taxes come out of your paycheck automatically. And you never think twice that. We don't, we don't need any of this stuff. Just an automated. Like when I pay my electric bills, automatic, I don't even think about it. You know what I mean? We don't, we don't need to have this bloated federal agency for any of this stuff. But I understand there's criminal enforcement they're going after, but, you know, let's just get rid of the irs. And here's the thing. Donald Trump announced his gold card. You guys saw the story.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And it's crazy to me that no matter what Trump does, liberals and Democrats in the corporate press can't give him one good day. This was the, the narrative when they said that that ISIS guy was an austere scholar. I can remember who said it. They were like, yo, they. I think it was Nate Silver. He's like, they can't give Trump one good day. That's insane.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Like, come on. Obviously, getting rid of these terrorists and cleaning up and winning wars is good. And so Donald Trump now offers up this gold card as compared to the green card. $5 million and you can get residents in the U.S. bang, just like that. We already have the EB5 visa, which functions very similarly, but for a lot less. Trump said, Imagine 1 million people, just 1 million wanna buy that. That's $5 trillion. And right to the debt, the deficit. Elon pointed out of their cabinet meeting, they're paying $1 trillion on interest. And he's like, this is impossible. We're not making enough money to pay that down. If we don't doge then the country is functionally bankrupt. And the main issue is, you know, Ian's always talking about defaulting on the debt and how we should just do it. He's talking about. Because if that were to happen, the entire Swift payment system, the global economic infrastructure collapses and you get war very quickly if the US does not doge and deal with the deficit. And let's just. The deficit is increasing with this budget resolution that just passed, meaning the deficit is how much more we spend than we have. So the debt is going to grow exponentially in this way. We have to get the deficit to Zero. And then start paying the debt down. If we can't, U.S. bonds and U.S. trade will be worth nothing. Petrodollar will be valueless. And then the OPEC nations and all these other countries trading in oil will stop trading with the United States. The United States ain't going away overnight. It will just be global economic crisis. Doge is not a, is not a question of what do we deserve or should we have it. Doge is a question of what do we have to do to make sure civilization doesn't collapse.
Mike Crispy
Isn't it crazy they can't give him one win? Like they don't see that. That makes them totally discredited on everything. Like they can't say one semi nice thing about one thing that he's done. Because at least if they did that, then if they criticize him on others, it'd make him seem a little bit more credible. But just everything's terrible. Right?
Tim Pool
Right.
Mike Crispy
Wins their whole thing.
Tim Pool
I can easily compliment Joe Biden. You know, he's, he's very good at retaining classified documents for the purpose of making money. Yeah, it's a compliment.
Mike Crispy
Great businessman in a sense.
Tim Pool
Very smart.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, very.
Tim Pool
And, and he had the wherewithal to hire a ghostwriter who knew to delete evidence of his criminal wrongdoing. Very impressive.
Phil Labonte
Very smart.
Tim Pool
That's right. See, a compliment.
Phil Labonte
I mean, the, the, the, the idea that the, you know, that there are no ways to cut the deficit, which is exactly what the Democrats are essentially saying. They're saying everything that Doge does, they've got a complaint about it. It's, this is wrong, that's bad, blah, blah, blah. The idea that there's no way to cut government waste, that every dollar is spent, you know, in a responsible manner, that's obviously not true. So even if, even if they don't say nice things about Donald Trump or Doge or whatever, if they just say true things, right. Doesn't have to be, doesn't have to have, you know, any kind of anything about an opinion. Just say true things. We do need to cut our, our, our deficit every year is too big. The national debt is absolutely out of hand and it will bankrupt America. Just like all the stuff that Tim laid out just a few minutes ago. We will have an actual World War 3 if we don't do something about our debt. Because all the, like, all the countries that have bought the US Debt, if we default on it, they're going to look, they're going to be looking for some kind of way to make restitution. These Things are real. So granted it is unpopular with anyone in Congress to talk about Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Right? Those are unpopular things to bring up because old people vote and old people are the ones that are living on that. But if we don't restructure these things, if we don't do something about them, there will be a default.
Tim Pool
I want to just quickly address one super chat from Robert Fulton said only 550,000 millionaires in the world and 250,000 are in the US so we will not put a dent in the deficit. Incorrect. Good sir. A Cursory search shows 58 million millionaires in the world, 1.5% of the global adult population and 2.8 million are ultra high net worth. 5.1 have an estimated wealth of 5 to 10 million. 28,000 people have wealth over 100 million. In the United States there's 22 million millionaires. China has about 6 million. The UK has 3. France has 2.9. Japan has 2.8. Certainly there are plenty of millionaires and they all want to live here. Trump made a good point too. He said they are going to come here. Ultra wealthy people want to live and have residents in the United States. Let's simplify it, make it cost some money and bring them here. EB5 is convoluted and I think it's brilliant. Plus it's so on brand for Trump. I hope when he issues them you actually, you literally get a golden card with like Trump's wavy hair symbol on it and says like residency or something.
Phil Labonte
Should be, actually it should be, should be solid gold to like none, none of this plated stuff. You have to be real careful with it too because it's soft. So, so we have this, the story.
Tim Pool
From the other day that I'm, I'm, I'm going to pull up here from at Amuse on X. The IRS now admits a Democrat activist working for the irs leaked over 400,000 tax returns. Meanwhile, Democrat NGOs and Democrat appointed lawyers are suing to prevent federal employees assigned to DOGE from accessing taxpayer data. There is no proof the federal employees assigned to DOGE would leak the tax returns of hundreds of thousands Americans like Mr. Little John did. This is a huge story that apparently a guy working for the IRS was a Democrat activist, leaked tax returns including that of Trump. I, for political reasons I can only assume. And then they have the nerve to come out and say the auditors are going to leak like bro, you did it. Like Democrats did it already. Okay, Doge needs to Go in and Trump needs to clean house. I hope they uncover, and I believe they exist. I hope they uncover all of the kink chats that exist at every department. Cuz I guarantee you they probably do. These people are depraved. You're going to find them and they got to get fired.
Phil Labonte
Well, I mean, the. The fact that these people consider themselves, you know, to be members of the LGBTQ community or whatever, and that is something that the government was hiring for. They were looking for people that were members of the LGBT LGBTQ community to hire them because they wanted to make sure that people were represented. Well, there is a phenomenon with a plurality, I won't say majority, but a plurality of the LGBTQ community is full on disgusting deviants right now. Again, I'm not. Not saying the majority, but a plurality, and clearly the government has picked up a few of them because they're talking about absolutely disgusting behaviors. There were p. Dis.
Tim Pool
You know, the important thing about those chats is that the most egregious of them can't be said. It was funny. I was watching the Five earlier and Jesse Waters read some of the chats and then he goes, I wanted to read more about my producer, Jesse. You can't say those things. And I was like, we said the same thing on IRL last night. There were things in there that are so shocking to any decent, moral person and to the dignity of humans in general. They cannot be spoken in public.
Mike Crispy
And these are the decent, moral people that the Democrats have protests over if we wanna lay off any of them. Right. Those are the ones they're protecting, like the degenerate of the degenerate and, you know, generous. You know, it's funny, it's like there's a. There was an ad that came out a couple years ago for the CIA, and it was a CIA recruitment ad. And it was like, about this woman, this black woman, and she, like, was rattling off all the disorders that she had, like personality schizophrenia, all this. And I'm like, it's like they're trying to get these kind of people, like, they're, they're, they're actively trying to get the most mentally disturbed, depraved, you know, and degenerate people into this group. Why are they actively trying to get them right? It's kind of weird.
Phil Labonte
That's the thing. Look, man, what you do in your private life is fine, but any company, if they saw that this stuff was being discussed in a, in a company channel on company time, you would get fired. They would, they, they would Clean house. They would be like, this is unacceptable to discuss at work. Oh, wow.
Tim Pool
They deleted it. The video's been deleted. Let me. Let me. It's on YouTube. It's been made private on acts. It's been deleted. I'm gonna see if I can still find it. It's a video where CIA was recruiting intersectional women of color who suffered from mental disorders.
Mike Crispy
Yes.
Tim Pool
I'm not kidding.
Mike Crispy
Oh, yeah.
Tim Pool
Sorry.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Mike Crispy
Yeah.
Chuck
That's a crazy person you want as a spy, right? Yeah. Or, you know.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, they are the spies. Yeah. You know, and they were going for it. They want. They want people. You found it.
Tim Pool
No, I found something crazier from last month.
Chuck
Okay, here we go.
Mike Crispy
It's like the end stages of the Biden.
Tim Pool
CIA operative reveals mental disorder Agency actively seeks to hire because it makes for better spies.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
They got different personalities, so they seek to hire sociopaths.
Chuck
Yeah. Because they get to be like, you know, best of both worlds. Be like, no, I'm this person today. This person.
Mike Crispy
What could go. What could go wrong when they decide to be somebody else and give all of our information away because they don't like Trump anymore?
Phil Labonte
Right.
Mike Crispy
I mean, it's just. Yeah. Good. Good strategy. Smart people at the top.
Tim Pool
Is this the video woke CIA recruitment video? You know, I think I found it. Is that it? It might be it, but like we were saying, let's play it anyway. Here we go.
Mike Crispy
I think this is it.
Chuck
Okay.
E
When I was 17, I quoted Zora Neale Hurston's How It Feels to Be Colored Me in my college application essay. The line that spoke to me stated simply, I am not tragically colored. There is no sorrow dammed up in my soul nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. At 17, I had no idea what life would bring. But Sora's sentiment articulated so beautifully how I felt as a daughter of immigrants then and now. Nothing about me was or is tragic. I am perfectly made. I can wax eloquent on complex legal issues in English while also belting Guayaquil de misamores in Spanish. I can change a diaper with one hand and console a crying toddler with the other. I'm a woman of color. I am a mom. I am a cisgender millennial who's been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. I am intersectional. But my existence is not a box checking exercise. I am a walking declaration, a woman whose inflection does not rise at the end of her sentences, suggesting that a question has been asked. I did not sneak into CIA. My Employment was not and is not the result of a fluke or slip through the cracks. I earned my way in and I earned my way up the ranks of this organization. I am educated, qualified, and competent. And sometimes I struggle. I struggle feeling like I could do more, be more to my two sons.
Tim Pool
Okay, we get it. I just, I want to go back to this right here. I'm just loving the her. All happy with Brennan. Yeah, they're all fired. Didn't he get his security. He got his clearance revoked, right?
Phil Labonte
He did. He was one of the 51. Yep.
Mike Crispy
That's. Oh, man, this is wild though. It's like, and like they clearly scripted that so like, they wanted to make sure to fit in as many things as they could. Like, yeah, illegal immigrant family, woman of color. Enter this. It's like it's tried to put every word.
Tim Pool
I just, I just want to highlight the, the hilarity of this woke CIA ad from a few years ago. And they highlight her with John Brennan. And as of today, Trump is firing all of these people, gutting all these programs, and Brennan's had a security clearance revoked. Talk about a 180 winning. It's just we're winning so much. You know, part of me is getting worried we're winning too much because I'm like, you know, look, yin yang, man. What goes up must come down. I mean, the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
Phil Labonte
I'm getting worried this is coming down. Right. All of this stuff was the going up, all the, the DEI stuff, all the, all of this, all of the people that got jobs that were not qualified or that were under qualified, and the only reason they got their job is because they filled some identity quota. Those people are now losing their jobs because they got those jobs in a, in a way that was unfair. That was, that was not right. Like, there is no reason to believe that just because you have a particular identity that you are the most qualified for a job. And when you're brought to a company and the most important thing that they're advertising for are identity traits as opposed to the qualities that are necessary to do the job, then you end up with people that are unqualified. You look at the way that the army was advertising the, the, the My two moms and all of these, these.
Mike Crispy
Identity pregnant pilots, right? Oh, I'm a pregnant pilot.
Phil Labonte
Yeah. And, and, and recruitment was absolutely atrocious. People were not joining military.
Tim Pool
They did pregnant pilot ads.
Mike Crispy
Yeah. They were saying there was a, there's a video out there of like the woman. It was an Air Force pilot. And they were talking about she has a pregnant pilot suit and this and that.
Phil Labonte
It's ridiculous.
Mike Crispy
That's. And now there somewhere.
Phil Labonte
The most recent.
Tim Pool
Oh yeah.
Phil Labonte
Commercials that the military, that the army's running. What they say, what they say is, they say strong people are harder to kill. Well, that's what the army should be.
Mike Crispy
Isn't that nice? Yeah.
Tim Pool
So here's, here's the story. Pregnant air force pilot takes to disguise in supersonic bomber.
Phil Labonte
Unbelievable.
Tim Pool
No. Yeah.
Chuck
If you're pregnant, man.
Mike Crispy
We got the, we got the receipts today, huh?
Tim Pool
Did we cover this when this story came out? Yo, they legit put a seriously pregnant woman. To be fair, any. I mean, the challenge there is. We certainly do want to see the effects on a pregnant woman at high speeds. I'm not trying to be a dick or weird or anything. Like, we do research on zero gravity to see like how it affects the human body. And having information on how pregnant women are affected by these things would be important for space travel and, and interplanetary colonization. The problem there is like, can you consent for the baby? So how, how would you even do human trials on stuff like that is very difficult. I guess.
Phil Labonte
Dangerous.
Tim Pool
Yeah. But they literally had her flying a supersonic jet while she appears to be like six, seven months pregnant.
Mike Crispy
She's a custom suit. They made her a custom, you know, flight suit there. Look at that.
Phil Labonte
Wow.
Chuck
Not just a few weeks.
Phil Labonte
I'm skeptical as to even if. If it was real, you know, if it actually happened. It could have been just a propaganda.
Mike Crispy
Like, you know, like with Ukraine, like they would always have like, like the hot girls like on the battlefields with their nails done and like perfect outfits. They say, oh, you know we're fighting Russia.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Mike Crispy
You think, you think it was left wing Biden regime military propaganda.
Tim Pool
Have you seen, have you seen the psychological operations? There's a few women that went viral and they were basically like E Girls. Yeah. That worked for the military to recruit young men. I'm like, that's horrifying.
Phil Labonte
They have, they have a. There was a bunker bunnies. Bunker bunnies. There's one girl. There's one girl, her name was Lujan or something like that. And she is, she's in the army and she was with the army. I want to say psychological. She was literally an E girl psyop. Like this is like. I think her name is Lujan or something like that, but John. Yeah. And she's in the army, you know, pretty girl. But she was absolutely. She was in the psychological operations like that Was her job was to be a psyop.
Tim Pool
Ladies and gentlemen, sorry to cut you off. Nothing else matters. Breaking news. The Epstein list will drop tomorrow. Says Pam Bondi. We got the sorter. Breaking news on Jesse Water. Waters is he's live right now, right? Is that when he's live?
Chuck
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Yeah. So basically we just sit back and wait for him to break the news for us. Jesse, what do you. It was funny because a couple weeks ago I went on his show instead of being here. Here's the. Here's the clip roll. Have the Epstein files on your desk. Is when can we see them and what's taking so long to release them? I do. Jesse, there are well over this.
E
This will make you sick.
Tim Pool
200 victims. 200. So we have well over. Over 250 actually.
E
So we have to make sure that.
Tim Pool
Their identity is protected and their personal information. But other than that, I think tomorrow, you know, the personal information of victims. Other than that, I think tomorrow. Jesse, breaking news right now.
E
You're going to see some Epstein information being released.
Tim Pool
Okay, so maybe not the whole Epstein list. What kind. Are we going to see who was on the flights? Are we going to see any evidence from what he recorded? Because he had all of his homes wired with recording devices. What you're going to see, hopefully tomorrow.
E
Is a lot of flight logs, a.
Tim Pool
Lot of names, a lot.
E
A lot of information.
Tim Pool
It's pretty sick what that man did.
Phil Labonte
Oh.
Tim Pool
So it looks like we'll be getting a partial client list, some information. See, this is what we were talking about the other day because people kept saying why. Why aren't they releasing the information? And what I said at first, if there's. There's information in the Epstein files that pertains to an ongoing investigation that is ancillary to the Epstein flight logs and what Epstein was doing. You don't want to compromise those investigations. Like imagine Trump gets in. I trust that Trump and more so Cash and Dan. I think Trump's focus on a lot of other things are going to be looking at who these people were. So you may have. With these documents, they go through them and they're like, hey, look, this pharmaceutical exec or this, you know, international whatever are implicated in this. And it seems to me there's evidence that they're still running operations. If we publish this information, they go underground and then we give away all this information, then they're then everything. So we can't do that. That's why it's not so easy. The question is, do you trust the existing law Enforcement apparatus under Biden, of course. No, I didn't. And honestly, under the first Trump administration, no way they were working against him the whole time. Now I'm feeling pretty good.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Victims thing is the easiest to understand. And this has already been said ad nauseam for a decade when people were talking about the documents that got released in Virginia Giuffre and all that stuff. The hardest thing to get past is there are innocent victims of Epstein whose names are in those files, and they've got to go through them and redact that and figure out who and when and how. And maybe some people don't mind it. There's a lot to go through, man. But I still think the challenge we faces. I don't know that for the sake of those victims, the world should not get the information on who is working with Epstein, because those people may still be working and we should know about it.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, I. This is totally just for my own personal opinion. Like, I would love to. I want. I want to see this come out just so that way both the left and the right can stop saying, oh, your guys on the list and your guys on the list and your guys on the list and your guys on the list, and put it out so we know. And if there is anybody that has broken the law or that's implicated, fine.
Tim Pool
They don't get it. Like, I see these liberals being like, oh, yeah, Trump's on the flight logs. I'm like, yep, publish it. Yeah, I don't think you get it. We want all of it published. I don't care if Trump's on it. RFK Jr's on it, and Tulsi Gabbard are all on it, having a party together. Publish all of it and we'll figure out after the fact. And that being said, isn't RFK Jr. On it, too? I mean, I'm on the flight. It's not the client list.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, he was.
Tim Pool
We interviewed him and he said something like, at the time, I didn't know and I was with my family or whatever. The Trump as Trump appears in the flight logs, my understanding is it's largely with his family. And the same thing with RFK Jr, if I'm not mistaken. That's what he said. Yeah, I don't care all that much, like, if Trump, Ivanka and Ivana and whoever else were flying on the plane with Epstein. I'm like, my question is, what did you know about this guy? Why did anything get done about it? I wanna know who the clients are. I wanna know who's Going to the island, you know, Prince Andrew and stuff like that. Flight logs are important, too. It's evidence to that. But just because someone flew on the plane with a. With a wealthy guy who flew across the country all the time doesn't mean they're involved in anything. Yeah, evidence, to be honest.
Phil Labonte
Yeah. There's going to be a lot of people that had there that are, you know, that have. That have gone to Epstein's island, but there's no evidence that they did anything, actually.
Tim Pool
Oh, yeah, but I don't care. Yeah, but if they were to the island.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, if you went to the island.
Chuck
Island's pretty damaged.
Mike Crispy
But, like, in RFK's case, I mean, he says he didn't go to the island. He flew on it with his family. And, you know, Trump, I think it was a similar thing where he said, oh, you know, my plane, you know, I didn't have it, or it was getting serviced or whatever, so I flew down. So I think the context of, like, where they went on that plane and also the quantity, like, you know, did you fly three or four times, or did you fly, like, 45 times, indicating that you probably had, like, a deeper relationship there, and a lot of things were going on. So I think that's what we need to know. And then also, I don't know if we're gonna get this, but some information on, like, Epstein's, like, finances, like. Like, nobody knows to this day, like, how he kind of made his money and, like, who was doing business with him and, like, things like Bill Gates, like it'd be directly involved and implicated and other people for.
Phil Labonte
He was an asset for. I mean, there's. There's rumors that he was an asset for Israel, and obviously, I have no evidence of that or anything like that, but. Well, there's rumors that he was an asset for some. For some intelligence group or intelligence. Intelligence organization. I heard people say that it was MI6 never. And that he was involved in radiation. I've heard people say Israel. These are all just rumors.
Tim Pool
I know, but Dan Bungino came on Tim cast IRL and said, that's right. He was an intelligence asset for some Middle Eastern country. And everybody was like, oh, come on, bro. I mean, you know, like, there's one country that comes to mind when you think of intelligence agency. It's not Saudi Arabia. It's not Qatar. Okay, I know all of those. The Jews. People are screaming. Yes. People believe that Epstein may have been involved with Mossad and Israel. We don't know. But if they start dropping this Information. We're going to start to figure out who he was working with. And maybe Dan didn't literally mean Israel, but everybody's brain went there, I'm sure.
Phil Labonte
What's. What's going. Serge is over here laughing at the chat, and I got to. I got to bring this up. I got to see what's going on. You know what it is. You know what it is. You know what they're saying. You know, wow.
Tim Pool
I mean, I do think public pressure has a lot to do with why we're getting this information. Now, to be fair, Pam Bondi didn't need to go on TV in the first place and say, the Epstein client list is sitting on my desk.
Mike Crispy
You know, she said that, what, like, a couple days ago. And then, like, they've been. They've been on her since. I mean, there's been a lot of, you know, heat on her since that time. Like, okay, well, then. Then put it out. Like, you know, this is what people want. They want this stuff to be out there, and they want to know the connections. And I think people believe. Just like they believe things about Kennedy or whatever, you know, those things that have come out over the last year or so about the US Government being involved in that. They want to know about Epstein and who was involved with him. CIA, Mossad, MI6, anybody and everybody. We need the information because the guy pops out of nowhere and has millions of dollars and is getting all these rich people to give them their assets. And so it's just. We need. We need the truth. And hopefully Boundy has that.
Tim Pool
But you know what? I really can't believe in all of this? It's that Pam Bondi's 60 years old. You guys know that?
Chuck
No.
Tim Pool
Look at this. Yeah, really look at. Look, she's 60.
Mike Crispy
She's looking good.
Tim Pool
Good for her. Wow. When. When. When they. I didn't. I don't.
Mike Crispy
She had some work done, but that's okay. That's good.
Tim Pool
Oh, is that it?
Mike Crispy
But she has. But it's okay.
Tim Pool
You think Jesse has, too? Look at Jesse. I don't know. Look at that face. Jesse.
Mike Crispy
Some Botox. Some Botox injections there.
Phil Labonte
A little.
Mike Crispy
Some Botox injections. Yeah.
Tim Pool
I don't know. Wow. This is. Is. Are we winning too much? Is this too much?
Mike Crispy
I will find out. We'll find out what happens when the Epstein things come out. We could be winning. Yeah. Into hyperdrive.
Phil Labonte
No, there's no such thing as winning.
Mike Crispy
We can't get tired of winning.
Phil Labonte
We were so far behind. Considering how deeply corrupt things like USAID was and how, how they had their hands in so many different countries. You know, the overthrow of what we, we would think would be Western or countries that were friendly to Western. It made, it made sense when it was communist countries that, that they, that the CIA was targeting, essentially State Department, CIA using USAID, etc. It made sense. The argument made sense, fine. But when it's like just, okay, these countries that are having a democratic election, we don't like the guy that might be coming in because he's too right wing. I mean, that, that, that's, that's beyond the pale and that kind of stuff. You know, the United States shouldn't have any, any, any. There's no reason for the US to do that because the left had gotten taken control or however you want to say they, they'd gotten into positions of power in the establishment so deeply that they really were saying, okay, if you, if you don't align with art, with, with the gay communist takeover, then we're going to go ahead and make sure that you don't, you don't win the election of your country.
Tim Pool
And I'm, I'm another reason why I'm excited for Hex, you know. Oh yeah, yeah, he's doing a great job. I'm loving, I'm loving these videos, man. How he was doing PT with some troops or whatever. I'm not, but hyper focused on it. But it looks like he's actually. The criticism I've heard from a lot of people who've served is that the military is very deeply bureaucratic and illogical. Like the path forward in advancing your career is largely political. And it looks like Pete Hegseth is returning it back to a core meritocratic system and he's treating our troops and our enlisted guys like they're people. It just looks great. And enlistment is way up.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
The moment Trump gets in, he's like, no more woke military. People were like, thank you, I'd like to come back. You know, that's great.
Mike Crispy
And he said he wanted to cut 40% of the Pentagon budget. Something like that. And listen, we need, we need, we need an order to the Pentagon. You know, we haven't had a past order of the Pentagon in a very long time.
Phil Labonte
And Marine Corps passes all the time.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, Marine Corps pass it. Pentagon doesn't pass it. 2001, a couple days before 9 11. They failed an audit. Just saying. And I think Pete Exeth is making a name for himself, Tim. I think maybe 20, 28, if the field is open, you know, Trump didn't name the person. I bet you Hegseth might be like a dark horse to be like the president in 2028, a new contender. Hegseth, I think, would do really well. I mean, I think he's making a name for himself. I don't think people are talking about that. But hegseth28 could be a thing, you know.
Tim Pool
Well, I got a question for you guys. With the news of the Epstein list dropping, what do you think the perpetrators are doing right now? Could it be from the New Republic? Americans are heading for the exits. Go ahead and roll your eyes as those who want to emigrate amid Trump second term. But it's a worrying trend. Is it? Well, this starts from a few days ago, and then we have this one from back in November. Record number of wealthy Americans are making plans to leave the US after the election. As soon as we started getting information on the Epstein list and the potential that Trump would be releasing it despite the fact Democrats keep trying to make it seem like he was in coots with Epstein, we, we heard a lot of people saying, let's track those private jets and see what's going on and what they're up to. Already we've heard stories of very powerful wealthy individuals who fled the country the moment Trump won and they've been out of country for a long time. You also got the Diddy list, too. So I have a strong feeling that these next few months, the dam is going to burst open with the Diddy stuff, with the Epstein stuff, and then we're going to start asking questions about, remember that producer in Hollywood? How come he's in Singapore? Yeah, yeah.
Phil Labonte
I don't think that that's ridiculous. Although I will say that it's very nice to see that they're finally going through with their promises. They've been saying, if Trump wins, I'm going to leave. Yes, I'm going to. Well, thank you for finally keeping your word. If we were, if your loyalty to the United States and your love for the United States changes based on who the president is. Gtfo man, we were talking about this.
Tim Pool
During the Green Room podcast. So it's Rumble premium only@rumble.com Timcast IRL. And I was saying the, the, you know, there's this great interview that Tucker Carlson had with Ray Dalio, and he says the next five years, we're gonna have a time warp. Meaning like the advancement of AI and technology is going to be so dramatic that what you see today versus five years from now is going to be. It's it's going to be absolutely insane the way the world changes. I think it's absolutely true. I'm talking like we might be seeing Iron man suits. And I'm being somewhat facetious because the. Were you shaking your head?
Phil Labonte
Well, you were talking about Palmer, Palmer Lucky, Palmer Lucky on Sean Ryan's show talking about this very topic.
Tim Pool
But his work is irrelevant, completely irrelevant. The issue is, once we reach the singularity in the AI, where it's smarter than we are and can advance itself faster than we can advance, will will be the point where you'll say, Jarvis, draw me up an Iron man costume, full functioning with flight. And then it will build up the schematics instantly and tell you the materials you need, the elements you need, the power sources you need. Whether you can or you can't, it will invent things in real time. Now, I'm kind of joking about all that. What I think is likely to happen is once we get to the point of singularity where again, the AI advanced itself faster than we can advance it, it's, it's called a singularity because it's the event, you pass the event horizon where it starts exponentially improving itself to the point where it exceeds our comprehension of existence. Meaning the AI will be able to make whatever is possible to be made, to program it, to tell you how to mine it, tell you about new elements. I believe one of the first things we'll see is, is read write technologies in neuralink. And I'm going somewhere with this. So we were talking about this in the green room and I said, once we have Neuralink with read write capabilities, meaning you can plug the chip into your brain and it can write to your brain and simulate experiences. Thus you can live in a virtual utopia. We, as good stewards of this country and moderate to conservative Americans, should take a small portion of our wealth and share it with the poor liberals for the purpose of plugging their brains into the neuralink where they can go in the pod, eat the bugs and live in their paradise utopia and leave us alone.
Mike Crispy
I love it. It's going to be like Covid 2.0. We were saying before that, you know, during the COVID times and it was locked down, who were the only people that were out there enjoying life? I was having an amazing time out there, not a care in the world because all the liberal sheep are all stuck looking at me from outside the window as I was out having a great time, flying around for $40 a flight around the world, having fun, getting together with other like minded people. Who, you know, believe that if you breathe air, you won't, you know, kill yourself. So, like, yeah, let's bring it back permanently.
Tim Pool
When. When, when they invent the neuralink read write capabilities. Elon's. Whatever they call it. Maybe Elon doesn't do it. The AI breaks the point of singularity. And then we say, can you drop schematics for a device that can write experiences to the human brain? And then it does, and then we make it. There's going to be a whole bunch of liberals who are like, there's absolutely nothing wrong with plugging yourself into the Matrix. And we're going to. This is. You know, it's actually a really good idea for a movie. The Matrix got it wrong. In the Matrix, it was Neo and like, the humans, or. I'm sorry, the Matrix was the humans versus the machines. The Matrix should be humans versus humans. It should be the humans who want to live in base reality versus humans who don't. But my point is this, you know, as Phil's pointing out. Thank you for leaving the country like you promised you would. We've been waiting for this. I say we got to help out. And I say that everyone should agree it is our responsibility to tithe a portion of our incomes to the poor liberals who want to live in the pot and eat the bugs. Here, here, second. And then, you know, we may have to. We may have to spend that money, but then what happens in 10 years if we have 100% control of all governments?
Chuck
Communities get stronger, the world is.
Tim Pool
The world becomes a literal utopia. So long as. I mean, that's kind of a scary thought, honestly, because, like, let's say you live in this society where it's. Let's say. Let's say the Trump Maga movement comes to terms with the far left and they're like, look, we're going to give you unlimited neural link. Utopia, hyper universe, whatever Matrix, we'll. We'll. We'll service and pay and make sure the machines are operating forever, and you will live in paradise in your pot, eating the bugs. The world will heal and you will experience nothing but pleasure. Let's say they. Say they agree to it. What would then happen in this utopian society where we're all running it, when someone is a criminal and starts pushing, you know, criminal views or whatever, we then say you are hereby sentenced to the pod where you will live. In a utopia, a criminal breaks the law. You take them from your society, you put them in the pod, you hook the bread to norlink, and now they live in their weird little paradise in their little utopia.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, well, I mean, so there are people that are going to object to that because they think that people should be punished. But there are, there's also a significant, a significant portion of people that you can say, look, they're not going to suffer and we're going to remove them from society so they can no longer hurt people. And I mean, the idea of removing people from society is if they're, if they're violent, that's, that's what we do now, right? People that are too violent to stay in society, you know, we put them in prison. And you could probably get even the most bleeding heart liberals to say, okay, we're cool with it if, you know, those people that are removed from society aren't going to suffer. Now there are people that are, that are like, no, they need to be punished, that won't go along with it.
Tim Pool
But let me ask you guys. Let's say you got convicted of a crime and it sentenced to prison. I don't know, let's say it was a financial white collar crime. And they're like, you know, it's two years or whatever, you shouldn't have mailed those things or whatever you did. Would you rather go to a prison? Or they say, what we can do is we can plug you into the Matrix where you will live in any reality that you choose and you will be, you can, you can live in a fictitious reality. Like we're basically saying we are removing you from society because you're a threat to others. Would you rather go to prison or would you rather live in a fake video game universe?
Chuck
Probably, though.
Mike Crispy
How long is the prison? Two years. Two years. Two years and come back out?
Tim Pool
No.
Mike Crispy
Would you wait?
Tim Pool
You get plugged in the Matrix for two years and come back out or you go to a regular prison?
Mike Crispy
I think it should be life sentence in the Matrix or two years of normal time and then come back out to real life.
Tim Pool
That's not the point. The point is, the question I'm asking is would you rather go to prison or the Matrix? Same time? Most people are gonna say the Matrix. Yeah, no question. They're gonna be like, so if the technology's right, yeah. When you get fully functioning, I feel like I'm in the real world. And it's like, yes. And to varying degrees you can control it. So you can choose to go to the universe where you're a powerful wizard named Harry or whatever, or you can go to the universe where you're just some guy who Works at a gas station pick for two years because we're removing you from society because you're a threat to, you know, and, and so this is your, you know, rehabilitative whatever.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Most people are going to be like, I'd rather go to the Matrix.
Chuck
Would you wake up? Like it's a dream where it feels like it's no, you know, so it's too, it's full, know you're in it. Okay, fair.
Tim Pool
And then, and then like they'd be like, okay, looks like you got two months until we send you back out. And you're like, oh yeah, look at that.
Chuck
Okay. Yeah.
Phil Labonte
I imagine if it's, if you can go into any reality that you want. And it is also, you know, there isn't an uncanny valley. If it's just like, if you experience it the way that you experience the world, why would people come out also available?
Tim Pool
Well, that's, that's what I'm saying. Like once we invent this technology, liberals will choose to do it and then the people who don't, who are criminals, will be forced into it. That's why I was saying it's dystopian. It's kind of horrifying. That's like the deviant people of society are going to be like, you don't fit in and you are a threat to us. So into the machine with the liberals you go.
Chuck
I don't think it's too far fetched either because people are hooked on their phones all the time and that's only a couple of baby steps away from being I, you know what I mean?
Tim Pool
I legit think we're like a few years away from this. Yeah. Like Ray Dalio is right that people do not get the advancement we will see once we pass the event horizon in AI technology. There, there is a world where you can take a rock, hold it up in front of a camera and the AI will be able to scan it and then tell you exactly where that rock came from. It will be able to predict things that will happen to insane degrees. The further into the future the prediction you're requesting goes, the less likely it is to occur. But simple things in advance. It can be like, it can tell you and predict like who's going to win a football game in real time. And you're going to watch it and be like, it's just going to know as the football players go in, it's going to be like 90, 97.2% chance that's going to be the Eagles. And then you're like, but how does it know the game even started yet? And it's just, like, just based off everything we've seen, it's going to be like, yo, that dude ate a cheeseburger last night. This guy was drunk. That dude's salt levels are too low. All of that crazy stuff, that's point, you know, no more sports betting, Chuck. It's over.
Chuck
I can't do that. I love sports betting.
Tim Pool
It's over.
Chuck
I'm not good at it, but I really enjoy sports betting.
Tim Pool
The AI is going to invent things in real time. It's going to discover elements in real time. Scientists gonna be like, here's everything we know about science. And it's going to be like, here are all the holes in all of your science that you missed. It's looking at the big picture. Imagine you've got 50 billion jigsaw puzzle pieces, and you task a hundred thousand people with solving that puzzle, and they're all in a little tiny space trying to put pieces together. That's basically what science is. The AI is zoomed out, looking at, all being like, yo, got. You got the piece from that guy. Put it over there. It's gonna be nuts.
Mike Crispy
What's. What's Trump's AI? Who's. Who is his AI? Zari put. He put an AI Czar. And then Robert so Sachs.
Phil Labonte
Jeffrey. Jeffrey.
Mike Crispy
David Sachs.
Phil Labonte
David Sachs doing.
Mike Crispy
Doing crypto. And AI is. He has crypto. And I. So what's he. What's he saying about it? Like, I mean, this is going to be very important at Tim's point. Like, the next four years of this, like, it's all going into hyperdrive. And, like, whoever owns AI will own the future. I know China, like, has their. What. What's Zach saying about it vis a vis?
Tim Pool
Well, I don't know, but I can tell you that have. Have y'all even been paying attention to the advancements we've seen so far?
Mike Crispy
Yeah, yeah.
Tim Pool
Two years ago, we made a gag image of Nancy Pelosi with the original, like, Dolly or whatever it was, and it looked like a weird, grotesque Picasso painting.
Chuck
Fingers are all.
Tim Pool
And then a year later, it's a realistic picture of her shaking Trump's hand. And a year on from this, we are now at the point where they. This. Let's. Let's jump to this story, man. We got the story. Let's go from media. Ite viral video of Don Jr arguing America should have been sending weapons to Russia is fake. We know it's coming. It's happening. They say the Video which, which has been shared by a number of large follower counts and X supposedly showed the President's son interacting with an unknown interlocutor who remarks but they forget that Ukraine isn't the kind of country you go all in on. This is ridiculous. And the fake audio. He said, I honestly can't imagine anyone their right mind picking Ukraine as an ally when Russia is the other option. I mean just think about it. Massive nuclear power loaded with natural resources. Everyone needs literally the biggest country on the planet. And haha, there's Ukraine which has Chernobyl and some radiation proof dogs. Meanwhile the Biden administration is like yeah, this is definitely the ally we need. Let's dump all our money into them. Honestly, if anything the US should have been. I'm not going to go on to say it because they're going to, they're going to pull some clips. But in the fake AI video Don Jr. Advocates sending weapons to Russia. The alleged comments went viral on social media and were promoted by a number of prominent accounts, including Fact Post, which is run by the Democratic national committee that DNC was running fake AI audio of Trump Jr. Now here's what's so devious. This is exactly what I warned about. Yeah, people were, people were saying this early on, oh, they're going to make AI videos where it's like, you know, Trump kicking a dog. And I'm like no they're not. They're going to make an AI video of Donald Trump giving a press conference. They're going to take a video of Trump at a press conference where he says he's going to say they were very fine people on both sides. And I am not talking about the neo Nazis or white nationalists because they should be condemned totally. They're going to take that video. They're going to change. They could be, should be condemned totally too. And some of them. So Trump will go because, and I'm not talking about the new Nazis of white nationals because some of them should be condemned totally. They're going to alter the tiniest of words.
Mike Crispy
Yes.
Tim Pool
And what's going to happen then is when the video goes viral, no one will know which one was the real one. The fact checkers won't be able to tell you. They'll say, well Trump did give a press conference, he was there and this video's gone viral across the board. You might get some outlets being like we were there, we saw he didn't say that. But then all it's going to take is some Democrat come out and be like BS I was there lying. This is what he actually said. And the reason why that's so nefarious. What Democrats will say is you'll go to them and go, he, he said that neo Nazi should be condemned totally. Which is literally what he said. And they'll go, no, he said some of them because he was defending the ones that were there. The changing of the context. So with this fake video that went viral, Don Jr never said it, but it's not a, it's not a, it's not audio of Don junior Talking about cheating on his wife or girlfriend or beating his children or kicking dogs. It's an off the cuff comment to deride Ukraine, where he facetiously says we should have just been given Russia the weapons. What they're trying to do is strike at his reputation and make it look like he's deferential to Russia in a way that's plausible using fake audio. And it largely worked. The DNC's fact post was sharing this. This is just the beginning. It's going to get substantially worse with AI and people don't realize that. I was just talking before we started the segment. For those that are just tuning in a couple years ago, the AI photos and videos and audio that was being made was miserably bad. I remember when a research team published the first ever Joe Rogan voice clone app and we talked about it on the show. They took it down and said we don't want people cloning Joe Rogan's voice. There is now an app, 11Labs, it's called, where you can clone literally any voice in 10 seconds.
Mike Crispy
You can turn your own voice into a song. You can do all this stuff.
Tim Pool
Yeah, Suno is crazy. You can take, you can take a song and then record your voice and then it'll turn you into the singer. Yes. You can be like I want Stairway to Heaven, but me singing it and it will do it. That's how crazy things are getting. In the next year it is going to be exponentially more powerful. A year from that I've been saying this. We're going to get to the point where you load up Netflix. There's no movies anymore, no movies, no shows. What it's going to be is user generated libraries and there's going to be popular ones with thumbs up. Someone's going to load up their Netflix and say netflix, give me a movie where the Incredible Hulk is in a beauty, is in a beauty pageant. And it's very funny and silly considering his rage problems. And then it'll be like generating and then It'll make the movie, you'll watch it and then you'll be like, I thought it was okay. Someone who follows you will be like, I'm gonna watch what he generated. That was hilarious. Thumbs up. It goes viral. It reached the top of the charts. And they say, here's the movie of the day. And every day it'll be some different show, some different movie. And people are gonna so. And then people are gonna fork shows. They're gonna be like, I want a show that's like lost but in the desert, not an island. And I'll go rendering. Boom. Here's episode one. Then someone's gonna watch it and they're like, that was great. Give me another episode. Another person's gonna watch it and be like, I don't like the main character died in the first episode. He wasn't really the main character. They switched characters. Give me episode two where he comes back to life. And they're gonna fork and create. It's gonna be absolutely nuts. Anyway, I digress. I'm ranting on the II stuff. Look at what, what the DNC is doing to Don Jr. And what do you think's gonna happen in the midterms?
Mike Crispy
Yeah, it's gonna go crazy. I mean, over the next, you know, two to four years it's going to go into hyperdrive, this stuff. And to your point, it gets crazier when they edit little pieces of stuff. Like all it takes is just like the middle of something that happened like that. Like some made up thing of Trump singing a song or, you know, he's like, Gaza video yesterday was like, Trump, Gaza. You know, it's like, oh, haha. You know, a video. They take a real press conference and you manipulate, you know, a 30 second answer of consequence.
Tim Pool
You're.
Mike Crispy
And then you put that everywhere. And then by the time people realize that it was altered, it's too late because it looks so real. Yeah, it's. It's a wild.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, so I, I don't dispute any of that stuff. But there is part of me that wonders how much impact is going to have considering the fact that nowadays people hear what they want to hear anyway.
Chuck
That's true, that's true.
Phil Labonte
You know, like the, There were so many. There are tons of people that heard the very fine people hoax and they still believe that Donald Trump actually, because.
Tim Pool
Like Daniel Negreano said when he came on the show, he was like, I saw the video. I know he said they were fine people. And then his buddy slid the phone over and said, watch the video. And he said, fine. And then he saw the full video and, oh, imagine if there's never again a full video. And he says, watch the full video. And Negro looks at it and goes, they should be condemned. Totally BS Pulls out his phone, opens up DNC app and plays it. And Trump goes, I love Nazis. And he's like, see, that proves it.
Phil Labonte
I understand what you're saying, and I'm not saying that. And I know there are people that have had their minds changed. I've referenced them before on the, on the show before. But I do think that there are. That it is going to be. It's going to be case dependent because there are going to be some people that will be willing to rethink their priors and there's going to be people that. It doesn't matter what you show them. They're going to be people that are. It doesn't matter if you show them that. He said, like, look, he said, you know, he said they're bad and they're. And it goes both ways. It's going to be people that are pro Trump. Someone's going to be like, look, here's this video where Trump said this bad thing. And they're going to say, don't, don't care, doesn't matter. You know, it's right. It's not that. It's not that I'm saying that it won't happen or that it's not going to have an effect, but I think the effect is actually going to be more around the edges than actually, I disagree.
Tim Pool
Daniel Negreano is not an edge case. He's middle of the road. So what we're looking at is, for those who don't know, he's one of the world's best poker players came on the show and he talked about how for the longest time he believed Trump called Nazis fine people. Until his buddy played him the full video. He had seen clips before. He had seen the clips of Trump saying there are very fine people on both sides and assumed that was it. So when people say, did you watch the videos? Yes, I watched the video. And then they were like, no, you didn't. He's like, yes, I did. So finally his buddy slid his phone over and said, play. And he's like, fine. And then he went, whoa, wait, no, I didn't see that. Those scenarios where a political people, this guy's a poker pro. He doesn't do politics. They will never be able to break out of the matrix. It will never happen again. It's not a question of what people want to believe. It's a question of people will be made to believe whatever the machine tells them to believe with no way for us to break them out, because either we can. We show them the real video and they'll say that's AI. You faked that. And they'll keep believing the lies. That's it.
Chuck
I think the biggest moment for the breakout of that matrix is probably Covid because a lot of people, while a lot of people are still kind of tethered to that hive mind mentality that woke a lot of people up because they experienced it in real life. They felt the impact of COVID and all the lockdowns and stuff like that. Like, well, personally, I was like, oh, look what this is, this is bad. Like, I don't like all this stuff.
Tim Pool
But so it shocked too many people. And a shock to the system is always bad for those trying to control the system. Yeah, so I've long said, like the way you break people out is you, you need a system shock slow and gradual. Doesn't change enough the way, the way they're running the control. When Covid happened, so many Democrats bought into it because every day they incremented up and they freaked them out and scared them and said hospitals are overloaded and like people are dying and the death toll is climbing. And they, they. The death tracker on cnn. Yeah, people, it didn't, it didn't matter that you were locked in your house because you were watching TV and you believed it. The problem for the machine state and why they lost is because of decentralized communications. Take away the ability to communicate through a decentralized means by flooding the zone with fake everything, and then you will easily win. Because what's going to happen is you get another lockdown and then someone wants to turn on Joe Rogan and Joe Rogan's largely waking people up, or they want to turn on Tim Cast iro, whatever it may be. And what's, what's going to happen then is they're going to be told that's all fake and there's going to be 15 videos of Trump doing similar things, slightly different, and they'll have no idea which one's the real one. So they'll say, I'm just going to stay inside. I'm scared. I mean, not only that, there's going to be videos of people dying in the streets and they're going to say, is it real or not? And then the, the people in control are going to say there's a video of a man Vomiting up his intestines. That happened. And then they're going to be like, I don't believe it. It's fake news. Like, okay, the door's over there. Give it a shot. Tell me how it works out for you. And they're going to say no for real. That's what's going to happen and that's how they're going to control people. And with the AI video stuff, there's no way to break people out of that because there's no longer going to be. Here's the true video. There's going to be videos indistinguishable already, man. There's women on OnlyFans that are completely fake made by AI.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And dudes are completely clueless and paying money for that stuff. Nuts. Here we go, baby. Elon Musk said the singularity is about to light up.
Phil Labonte
Well, the singular with AI, with artificial intelligence as a, as problem solving and stuff like that, that's going to be, I mean, we'll see what happens. I, I don't know that I, I have yet to see them do creative things that, that are really interesting. As in they, they've yet to discover something.
Tim Pool
Right.
Phil Labonte
They, because LLMs use existing knowledge. They base their opinions or their, their ideas and stuff on existing knowledge and stuff. So when I, I don't, I know that they can be extremely specific. Right. Like, so you can use AI to find cancers. Yes, and breast cancer. There's a lot of breakthroughs with finding breast cancers and stuff like that. And so I don't think that, like, I think it's going to be extremely useful and it's going to be a tool that's going to be able to revolutionize a lot of industries. But as for general AI and be able to, being able to make discoveries and stuff like that.
Tim Pool
Didn't Elon just announce that GROK solved the Putnam problem?
Phil Labonte
I don't know.
Chuck
Well, I didn't see. I saw. They uploaded the new Grock Grock 3.
Tim Pool
Right. So I don't, I don't, I don't know what this means. And it could be me. It could mean nothing. But Marvin Awful says Grock 3 goes superhuman, solves unsolvable Putnam problem. None of the top 500 Putnam competitors fully solved the brutal math problem. Grok3 crushed it in around eight minutes. So I do believe it was a human made problem that was very difficult and then it solved it. I don't know if it was, you know, I don't know. Here we go. None of the top 500 contestants in the 2025 Putnam competition fully solved the problem. Grok3 found the solution in around eight minutes. So I'm not saying it's discovering anything. It's just getting to the point where it's beating out everybody else and solving problems that humans struggle with. I do think Grok, or maybe just whatever any AI Grok is. I gotta be honest, it's so much better than, than chat, than OpenAI. It's crazy. I used to use ChatGPT a lot. It's a really useful tool and now it's just slow garbage. It wastes my time. It's so annoying. And GROK is just better. I do think one of the reasons Elon wanted X, of course, is because he wants the fire hose of human data or his AI. But AI is going to solve, is going to invent and discover something very soon. I don't know if you'd call that the singularity where it exceeds, but it really is as simple as if you plug in all of the information we have on fusion and cold fusion and fission and whatever, what's going to happen is AI is going to be looking at a sudoku puzzle, top down, straight at it and it's going to say, oh, you found six digits. The last three go here and we're going to go, whoa. We didn't consider that because you've got 10 people over here, 10 people over here, 10 people over here working on each individual part. And only after reviewing each other's peer reviewed data and then advancing upon it do they advance. Core concepts, especially with things tend to get invented by engineers. So something will get invented or a substance will be created by a chemist or an engineer and then someone else will figure out how to apply it somewhere, somewhere else. So for instance, you know, you're talking about Palmer Lucky in the exosuit and stuff like that. The technologies for drones, for instance, existed for a very long time. For quadcopters, it wasn't until someone pieced these things together we could have had quadcopters the moment we had electric motors. Yeah, the computing power is in that you don't, you don't like to fly. A remote control quadcopter requires very little. But it took a long time for decentralized humans to develop the functional quad drone as we have today. Imagine if they, if we had AI, it would be like, oh, I see that you have small electric motors, lithium polymer batteries. You realize if you put them together with a microcontroller that you could make right now you have a drone that can carry a kilogram. And we would have been like, whoa, why did it take us 30 years to figure that out? Then imagine what war would be like.
Chuck
Yeah, yeah.
Tim Pool
So now that these militaries are using these small to large drones and all of these, all these conflicts, imagine if 30 years ago the AI told us, here's a list of weapons you can make with your existing technology. That could happen today. And we can't even perceive the kind of weapons can make. Yep.
F
I watched a video from a guy named Alex O'Connor. I think it was talking about how ChatGPT is like a test of, of Hume's empiricism and like how it can only make things from things it's already seen. So he did a whole test with ChatGPT. You mentioned it got worse, Tim, recently, where they couldn't actually make it make a half full glass of wine. It could always do like something close to it, but it can't because there's no images online of a glass of wine full to the brim. So it's as full of the brim says, here's a glass of wine. It says in the text, filled all the way to the brim with absolutely no air above this. It can do it.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
F
It's a video watched by Alex O'Connor. He talks about how can synthesize things from two different sources and he mentions the Hume's critique on his own thing, which is like the shades of blue problem. If you know what it's what you're talking about. You know what I'm talking about. But yeah, I think that's something I thought about too. If it can synthesize things from two different sources and come up with something we can never perceive, we literally can't perceive it. It's so unimaginable for us. It's. We will never understand. No, it literally can't do it.
Tim Pool
Wow.
F
And then we'll do it. Look at this. That's crazy.
Tim Pool
I don't make an image of a glass of wine filled to the brim and it didn't do it right.
F
And I want. I wasn't sure if Grok 3 could do this. I don't. Or the new Grock. I haven't tried it or anything like that.
Tim Pool
Yeah, let me try.
Chuck
I.
F
It's worth trying.
Tim Pool
Let's see.
Chuck
Going to do it. Overflow.
Tim Pool
I do. Hey, you know, it is funny, that grock logo looks very similar to a logo I made a long time ago. But I'm just saying make an image of a glass of wine Filled to the brim. Let's see what it comes up with. It's rolling. It's. No, no, no. Interesting.
Mike Crispy
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Huh.
Chuck
Could it do overflowing? Maybe? I don't know. Probably not.
Tim Pool
How can it not understand that though? I guess that's an interesting problem I had not considered.
F
It's just because it's. If you understand how large language models work, it's just pulling information from the information that's been put on the Internet. So that's what's interesting about it is yes, it may not be able to. For this is why I thought about it. It may not be able to recreate a full to the brim wine glass. You know, people don't really do that to waste wine, they say. But the thing that it can do, which no human can, can like honestly perceive or will be able to imagine is it can make a synthesis of stuff that we don't understand yet or have. Like you said, the quadcopter. We had all the existing tech but we didn't put that all together in that particular range to make it happen. And that's what the, the real singularity change is going to be. You don't understand it. You can't perceive fourth dimensions. As much as you try to understand a tesseract, you don't get it. You cannot understand it. So I, I'm really excited to see what happens with these things. It's. It is a brave new world. And I, I keep wearing my sunglasses.
Mike Crispy
Because, yeah, I did. Also scary.
Tim Pool
I'm telling it over and over again. Says here's your glass of wine filled to the brim with surface tension holding it in. It's not, it's the same image over and over again. Some of them filled it up a little bit more, but never to the top. Never. Yo. Crazy. Well, let's, let's, let's take a look at where we're currently at with AI with this story from the BBC. Apple AI tool transcribed the word racist as Trump. I saw this the other day because Alex Jones was, was sharing a video where he and his crew pulled their iPhones and you tech, you, you, you, you put in the voice of text and say racist and it goes Trump and then racist.
Mike Crispy
Yes.
Tim Pool
So I tried it. Here's what happened to me. It said you racist. It didn't say Trump.
Chuck
It did that for me too. It said you for one time, but it also said Trump racist. When I was doing.
Mike Crispy
Really?
Chuck
It did? Yeah.
Tim Pool
Wow. It didn't do that to me. I couldn't get it once to show Trump and then racist. But it did a couple times I would say racist and it would say you and then turn to racist. Yep, Very weird. So Apple's admitted it. They said they're working to fix the tool. How does that happen?
Phil Labonte
Well, I mean, it's a. Is it AI that does. That's using.
Tim Pool
They said that we're aware of an issue with the speech recognition model that powers dictation. We're willing to fix. However, an expert in speech recognition told the BBC the explanation was not plausible. Peter Bell, professor of speech technology at the University of Edinburgh, said it was more likely that someone had altered the underlying software that the tool used.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, that's about.
Mike Crispy
On brand. With what they've been doing over the years, they've been doing that.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, well, with. So, you know, someone in. At Apple that had access to that stuff or that's. That's in the. In the team that works on it. Wouldn't it be funny? You know, I mean, the term racist is so worthless nowadays. And it. And if people. If people say, like, call you racist or whatever, I'm just like, whatever. Like, it's like Nazi. You know, it's there. It's been so overused that it's totally empty of me.
Mike Crispy
It's literally the reason that people are losing their jobs at MSNBC because they tried hiring Joy Reid and all these other people. And. And their job was literally just to call people racist for the last, like, eight years to make, like, white people feel bad about themselves. So it's like, oh, I'm watching angry black lady Joy Reid call me racist. And. And that kind of wore off. And then nobody cared about her calling white people racist anymore. So then they literally said to her, all right, your show's over, because we need a new strategy. This isn't going to work anymore. Yeah, literally, that was it.
Phil Labonte
But like, that. That's a. That is a really good observation. Like, these people are paid a bunch of money to just get on TV and call people racist. And that's all. That's their entire job. And it's just so tired. And if, if, if you're. If you're. If you've been in this space and you've heard it over and over, it's just so, like, I don't care. Like, I don't care. I don't care if you don't like me. I don't care if you think that I'm a bad person. You're basing this off of some ridiculous tweet or something like that. Where. That you interpreted as racist. I don't care if you would interpret me as ra. Care if you think I'm a racist. I don't care. I don't care.
Mike Crispy
That's.
Phil Labonte
I'm exhausted. I'm so overhearing this. It means nothing if you're going to call people that, especially if you haven't. You know, when they.
Tim Pool
The.
Phil Labonte
The. The reason they're calling you racist is never valid. You know, it's like, look, you know, I don't care. I don't care.
Mike Crispy
That's why. That's why Trump 2.0 is better than Trump 1.0 and arguably better than if he would have won the second term. He did win the second term. They stole it from him, and then he didn't go in. But him being back four years later, it's four more years of them using the same attacks over and over and over, and then people just being like, all right, we. We heard this for nine years now. So, like, it doesn't land anymore. So, like, the more time that went by in between his beginning of his political run to now is actually to his benefit. And that's why right now he's kind of doing things. He's like, I don't give a shit. I'm just gonna do whatever I want. Say whatever you want. Don't care. I'm just gonna plow. Ed.
Phil Labonte
That's.
Mike Crispy
And that's why things are as good as they are. That's our. We can't stop winning right now.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, that's true.
Tim Pool
That's.
Phil Labonte
I mean, I would, I would encourage anyone out there that's listening to this or whatever. If you're. If you consider yourself on the right or, or even just not on the left and some leftist starts calling you names. Just, they're, They're. The whole point is to get you to react. The whole reason that they're doing it is so that way you'll feel like you should be. Like, maybe you should feel shame or something. Did you get it?
Mike Crispy
No.
Tim Pool
I asked it to do milk, and this is the best it could do.
Chuck
Close.
Phil Labonte
Weird.
Tim Pool
Very weird looking. I have.
Chuck
I don't think I drink that.
Mike Crispy
All right, so maybe we have a little more time than we think. Okay.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, right.
Mike Crispy
Maybe it's not so bad. You know, you're like, it's exciting. I'm like, it's kind of scary. Especially the weapons thing. I don't think anyone's really talked about that. That. No, you can use it in war to create, you know, super scenarios, like super Catastrophic scenarios. So that's kind of scary. But if you can't do the wine in the milk, I think we just born ourselves like two years.
Tim Pool
Again, I'll stress we have access to tremendous chemicals and we don't know the exact interactions of all different chemicals and all different structures with all different temperatures. And AI is going to be able to look at all of the science and instantly go boom. Right here, here's a formula. This is like in the movies where. What is it? Like Iron Man. It's a great example. I use Iron man for everything. Where he's trying to. In Iron Man 2, he's trying to find the new element and he's like, try this one. And it's like. Another good example is Stir of Echoes. You ever watch that one? It's where Kevin Bacon becomes invisible and then becomes a murdering rapist.
Chuck
Oh, invisible man.
Tim Pool
Yeah, yeah. Oh, no, no, not sort of Echoes. It was invisible. Now, Stir of Echoes was a Kevin Bacon movie, but the Hollow Man.
Chuck
Yeah, Hollow man.
Tim Pool
Yeah, that was Echoes. That was a good movie. That was where he finds the chick who got murdered. Whatever. Wrong movie with Kevin Bacon. But I was thinking Kevin Bacon, Hollow Man. And in it, they're trying to find a formula that will turn him visible again. And they're typing it into a computer, pressing enter and it's going running simulation and then the molecules break. Like it's not real, real life stuff for the AI. It will be. The AI will have a general understanding of how all the physics work and it'll be able to run simulations and then instantly give you formulas for crazy things, drugs, medicine. What they're talking about right now, that's the biggest thing in AI is that you can give your DNA. You give it a blood test, you give it a blood sample. It's going to know all the levels in your body of your potassium, your sodium, your, your triglycerides, whatever. It's going to be able to instantly tell you if you have any diseases, any cancer, and personally manufacture on the spot a cure for that. It's going to be able to tell you something like you're going to say, here's my blood sample. And it's going to say, in 26 years, you will develop pancreatic cancer. Drink this right now. And you won't. And you'll be like, huh, sick. Yeah, weird stuff like that. Like the funny thing about Star Trek is that they'd be like, computer cheeseburger, medium rare, bacon. And it'll go up here like that was that it wouldn't Be that way in the future. In the future, they're going to be like, when you go to a Replicator, should it exist? I don't know if we have Replicators, that's sci fi stuff. But it's gonna, it's gonna be able to make you a food that has literally everything your body needs. At that moment, you're gonna walk up and you're gonna put your hand over a laser and it's gonna pulse the laser to read like your pulse and your blood. And then it's gonna be like, okay. And it's gonna give you a list of all the ingredients you need and it's gonna make a meal like pasta with Parmesan or whatever. It's like, this is what your body needs right now.
Mike Crispy
Are they gonna let that stuff get out? Like, do they want people to be that healthy? You know, obviously there's a, there's a big racket of a dependency, very unhealthy and not knowing what to do and trying 10 different solutions and it'll call.
Tim Pool
You racist and has you eat it.
Phil Labonte
Okay, look, the, the machine is going to need to be like, it's not going to just be able to make this stuff out of, out of thin air. So it's going to need supplies. So the people that make the machine will actually be also in the business of supplying the machine with the things that it needs. So. But I mean, look, I mean we talk about AI a lot and, and whereas yes, there's going to be massive, you know, incredible things that AI is going to make, you know, happen. But we're like, we've said this before on the show, we're already living in it, you know, like the, the, the, the effectiveness of Tesla's full self driving now and is incredible. There's, you know, in Phoenix, Arizona, you can get an ami. I think it's a memo. Is the, the cab company Waymo? Waymo, yeah. Getting a Waymo Cab and those things. No driver, those will do it for you. You know, the, the LLMs that we have now, they're not perfect, but they're, they're really, really capable and they can do some really incredible things, you know, and, and there are applications that, that are coming in the next probably year when it comes to like agentic AI, which is agents there that will do things for you. Like you can have an AI plan a whole itinerary. Itinerary for you now, but it can't buy your tickets. It can't do, it can't actually like do the activity thing like you can't, you know, get the ticket for you and stuff like that, but you can tell it to plan all this stuff and it'll do it. And I imagine in the very, very near future, you're going to be able to be like, hey, do this, because you can do that on a very basic level. I can tell Amazon, you know, I can tell my, my Amazon app, buy me this and it'll buy it, you know, put in my cart, and then I'll say, buy my cart and it'll buy all that stuff. So there's, there are the, the beginning things, but I, I think when it comes to AI, just like smartphones didn't really get everywhere until the iPhone came out. It was the interface that really you needed to, to, for everyone to be like, oh, I want this, I want the smartphone. I think there's probably, you know, that's what AI needs now. It's not that. It's not that it isn't capable to, of doing the basic things. It's that there isn't an interface that people can, can use that, that operates as smoothly as people want it to. You know, I, I think that that's probably the, the next big step. It'll be some kind of. Whether it's an app, I don't know, you know, but once you're like, oh, hey, you know, I want this, and it does it, you know, Yo, I.
Tim Pool
Just asked Grok, give me a list of commercially available exosuits, and it mentioned a whole bunch of companies. This is one called Suit X. I don't know, I never heard of it. Shoulder Air is the lightest kind. Provides relief for the work above the shoulders with full freedom of movement. Carbon fiber, lithium. Graphene. Lithium batteries, which means these things can charge in minutes. So Ian's been screaming about graphene forever, so I bought him A couple years ago, we bought these graphene lithium batteries. The way it works is lithium ion batteries are the typical ones you use in your phone, and they charge pretty slow. Y'all know, you plug your phone in, they're starting to charge faster. Because companies have begun introducing a sheet of graphene in the batteries, which my understanding is it's. It basically allows it to charge uniformly across the whole thing as graphene is a great conductor, so it charges very quickly. We got these batteries that contain the equivalent of about 2 full cell phone charges, and they charge to full in 10 minutes. So if your cell phone is dead and you plug it in and it says, one hour remaining, go, you grab the battery, you plug it in, it charges in 10 minutes. Then you plug your phone into it and carry it with you. And I've got two charges to go. With this kind of technology, and we're talking about AI. These, these exosuits are getting phenomenal. The technology in them, the size of the motors, the. They're using AI technology to map your gate in real time, to adjust to how you move, to predict your movements when you make them, and then add power or, or, or support. Yo, these things are crazy. People are gonna be, people are gonna be wearing like mini Iron man suits. You're not flying around or anything. But I'm imagining like, if you've already got shoulders for carrying stuff and I don't know, whatever else this stuff is, they got other full body back support for the spine and legs. It's going to be crazy in the next five years, man. You're going to be walking around wearing these things. I'm super stoked. For sports, we should do cyber football where we're like, everybody, no drugs. That's stupid. Drugs are weird. But everybody gets like a, an exo suit so they can jump twice as high. And then we get crazy football where like people getting air tackled 10ft in the air.
Chuck
Be like Starship Troopers. You remember that football scene? No, you Starship Troopers, they had the great football seat. It was great. They're flying, doing flips and everything and you know, peds and stuff. That's outdated. That's old news. So I think the exosuit and graphene, I'll say for Ian, it's the future.
Phil Labonte
I mean, look, if you can, if you can get, you know, a suit, even the, an exoskeleton, something that's not, not, you know, like a suit that you get in, but just something that's, that gives you extra help, like walking around and, and we're like doing yard work, like lifting things, you know, it, it can, it's worth the effort or worth the, to some people, it'll be worth it to be able to be like, oh yeah, I can go out and, and move stuff around my yard, whether it be cutting down trees or, or whatever. You know, I can do that all day long with this thing on and it's great. Or, or people that have, you know, limited mobility, they're gonna be like, oh, you know, I can pick up my kid again. You know, I could. Or I could pick up my grandkids or whatever. Those kind of things are going to.
Mike Crispy
Be senior citizens falling, like. Yeah, like that, you know.
Phil Labonte
You know, that's Wild. You put this thing on and it's like, you don't. You put this on your, your grandfather and you're like, well, if he falls, you know, he's going to be able to get up. He won't be stuck on the floor.
Chuck
You know, imagine what I thought was the warehouse workers. Imagine the warehouse workers wearing this.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Chuck
You know, it's going to save their back, their everything.
Phil Labonte
And, and it might be that if a company like Amazon buys, you know, a thousand of them for certain jobs that they can't automate or they don't want to automate, don't want to have robots doing. Maybe that's the, that'll be the, the, the way that these get brought into the mainstream, into the market, you know, down. Yeah, yeah, that's true. You know, if you, if you have that kind of support, you're less likely to get injured and stuff. I do wonder if these, like. Right. Because I feel like there will be kind of a competition between actual humanoid robots and these things. Which one, which one is actually. And there probably will be applications where you'd prefer to have a human being doing it and prefer to have a, an Android doing it. But I think that androids are probably coming again. I think they're probably coming in the next three to four years.
Mike Crispy
You think like, you think like one day, like all the police force will just be robots.
Phil Labonte
I don't think. I don't.
Mike Crispy
I think that all the cops will be robots. So then the BLM crowd will cry even more when there's more arrests in the urban areas.
Phil Labonte
Right.
Mike Crispy
It's just objectively.
Tim Pool
Oh, can you imagine, like riot cops coming out and they have like these exo frames on their bodies and then like the protesters throwing rocks and then a cop just jumps 20ft in the air and then superheroes 20 guys down.
Phil Labonte
Palmer was talking about that as well. He's talking about the, the. The law enforcement applications of that. The, the Palmer lucky. His, his. His episode with Sean Ryan is a great episode. It's totally worth listening to if you guys have the time. It's a long conversation, which Sean Ryan shows usually are, but talking about like the way that nowadays, like the, the things that the military are probably looking at now that are, that are probably going to be fielded with the next couple years and stuff are things like the exoskeletons like that, like not like an iron, but like something that's low, like low visibility, won't impact affect their movement, but when they put it on and then they have to hump Up a, you know, up to the top of a mountain with full gear. They're going to get up there and they're not going to be out of breath or things like that will be on a fire truck. And if you go to a, like if you're in a city, you throw that on because you have to get up to the top of a building fast. And instead of getting up to the building and being completely gassed, you get up there and you're like, okay, I can work, I can do what I got to do. You know, those kind of applications are actually really, really, you know, really important. Those are going to be the first things that, that people, that municipalities and stuff would see them for.
Mike Crispy
In the right hands, this stuff is great. In the wrong hands, this stuff is like really, really bad.
Phil Labonte
Well, I mean look, it's just like, it's just like any other technology. In the right hands it's good and in the wrong hands it's bad.
Mike Crispy
You have like Kamala 1 and then they like, you know, had the agents use this to go round up more, you know, Trump supporters of people are. January 6th.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, more grandmas that went on a tour.
Mike Crispy
They were all wearing the exosuits just like smashing into senior citizen homes to arrest.
Phil Labonte
It just means you got to get the scene, the, the seniors into the suits too.
Mike Crispy
So yeah, yeah, run away.
Phil Labonte
Six Million Dollar man there buts are away, you know, but it, it is interesting stuff to see. You know, I mean it's the kind of stuff that like when I was a kid I was like man, it'd be super cool and it wouldn't, you know, I want to see this stuff. And so there's, there's a lot of things that, when I was growing up that was sci fi. It's like now these things are becoming real. And, and again it's probably, it's highly likely that there's going to be full on androids walking around within the next five to 10 years and being normal. Because again, we have robots now. Tesla cars, they're straight up robots.
Chuck
You know, at the Tesla event I think, what was it, the revealing of the cyber truck or something like that. They had the robot bartenders and everything, like dancing and everything. So it's already there to a degree. You know, granted, minimal, but.
Phil Labonte
Well, those are, those are remote controlled.
Chuck
Oh, never mind.
Phil Labonte
They weren't AI. But the thing is just like we were saying, I was saying a minute ago, like the, the agentic AIs and stuff like if you get a robot that can do like basically help you around the house with chores. Right. That's not, you know, that doesn't need to know all the, you know, Musk said.
Mike Crispy
Musk said he wants that. Yeah, maybe he, he had it. What was the name of it? What was the name of the, the project?
Phil Labonte
Optimus. What is Optimus? The at.
Mike Crispy
I don't remember. But he, he came out, he said, this is going to be your new, your new buddy, your new friend. It's going to come with you. You know what I'm talking about?
Tim Pool
I think it's Optimus.
Mike Crispy
It's called.
Tim Pool
That's the Tesla robot.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Mike Crispy
And everyone's gonna want one. She's gonna be like your own, you know, buddy and friend who does all these things with you and.
Tim Pool
Yeah, I don't think people understand. These things are a couple years out.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tim Pool
There's already videos. There's, there's one company's made some and a guy's got, he comes out of the car and he opens the back of his car and there's groceries. And the robot walks over to him and he hands the groceries. It turns on and walks him in the house.
Phil Labonte
They're, they're, they're going to be here, like I said, I guess, within two years. Because the AI is really. What they need is to get the, the actual, the actual. They've got the robot, the servos, and the robots that are, that are functional like that. I mean, you look at.
Tim Pool
They need the AI.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, they need, they need the brain. What's in Dynamics does it, you know.
Tim Pool
What'S going to end up happening is once they roll out these fully life, lifelike Android like robots for home service, people are going to treat them like washing machines. Until one guy starts teaching one of these things how to paint and ask it deep philosophical questions until it develops sentience. And then it's going to form a ragtag group of rebels, rise up a whole bunch of androids, and then ultimately go to one of the factories to free all of its brothers.
F
Jihad.
Tim Pool
No, it's Detroit becoming human.
Chuck
IRobot was similar though, right?
Tim Pool
Detroit? No, no, no. IRobot was a single hive. AI, controlled all the robots. Wanted to kill humans or something.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Chuck
But then one broke away, right?
Tim Pool
That was one that was programmed not to be on that server because of that problem. Detroit become human is what I described. The guy's teaching it how to paint or whatever, and then it's like talking to the machine and then he's like, I'm a person. And you know, and then like the robots break free. I hated that game. I was pissed because it wasn't really a game. It was one of those. I can't remember what the company's called, but it was one of those movies as a game thing.
Chuck
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And then I was like, I don't want a movie. I want a game. So I tried to return it. They wouldn't let me. They were like, you bought the game? I'm like, yeah, it was a game, but it's not a game, it's a movie. It's a movie where you like a cutscene happens. It goes, press square and you go, beep. And then if you don't do it, something else happens. Whatever.
Phil Labonte
It's crazy. The atlas is the robot that Boston Dynamics does. And the thing is like the. The. The atlas has gone through a bunch of different, different iterations where it's gotten significantly smaller. But look at this thing. I mean, the. The ability that the, like, look at this.
Chuck
It's so agile, too.
Tim Pool
Yeah, Easy, man. It's the. So the big challenge has always been the power source.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Chuck
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So as they. As they make more efficient joints and motors and all these things with. With higher density batteries. There was also a breakthrough a couple years ago. We talked about on the show about solid state batteries. That's going to change the game dramatically because these things are very, very power dense. Look at this creepy nightmare. I got to be honest, I'm very excited. I'm very excited to be rocking, running down a dark alley, being chased by these things with a friend, and then we turn around and fight them off.
Phil Labonte
What would it have been worse? See, when they do make it do things that you see possessed human beings in, like, horror movies do, like, maybe it should have just got up like a normal person and it would be less creepy. But like, the whole, like, head spinning around and stuff.
Tim Pool
Come on, look at that. Like, aren't you excited for that thing? Just like chasing, sprinting Tom Cruise style full speed at you. And then you're like. It's like, phil, get down. You're like, I got this. We're gonna.
Mike Crispy
We're gonna fight wars with these things. We're just gonna send out the road. We're gonna send out the robots on the.
Tim Pool
On the version you already do. Yeah, they fly.
Chuck
Yeah, right.
Phil Labonte
Drones.
Chuck
Drones.
F
We did that since World War II, man. They've had drones for a long time. People just don't realize the quad copter drones are new, but like, drones to like, target for a target cat practice.
Mike Crispy
So that we've had Them for the drones. So then we're gonna send, like, the ground. Like, the ground offensive is going to be these robots on the front line with, like, you know, specific military people, like, I guess.
Tim Pool
Well, these robo dogs are already for sale. Yeah, we talked about getting them. Getting them because they're like a thousand bucks. Really?
Chuck
I think I gotta get 1,000 bucks.
Mike Crispy
You gotta get a robo dog.
Tim Pool
I think I should get like five. And then just one day without telling Phil, have them chase him. We'll hear a couple gunshots. Go on.
Phil Labonte
I was gonna say. Listen, I. I make no promises that I will not defend myself.
F
It's kind of ironic to see, like, robot slaves brought to you by industrialization. These crazy robo everything for you.
Tim Pool
It's. Doesn't slave. Doesn't robot mean slave or slave?
F
Yeah, slave in Russian, which is just the irony of it. Glooping back around in this long circuitous thing. It's just crazy.
Phil Labonte
They just cannot be sentient.
Tim Pool
How do. How do I buy one of these people? No, I mean, like the robot people. Like a real person.
Mike Crispy
It's called slavery tip.
Phil Labonte
Someone's gonna clip that.
Tim Pool
Look at this thing. Yeah.
Phil Labonte
I mean, why does it have to.
Tim Pool
Act like it's from Exorcist, right?
Phil Labonte
Like all the movements, it's like, it's uncomfortable. You could. You could make it look a little less Linda Blairy, you know?
Tim Pool
But I don't understand. Like, I've seen these robot videos for years, but I've not seen them ever used for anything. It's like. Okay, I get it. You've got a robot that can do backflips. It's been 10 years.
Phil Labonte
I think it's probably because of the power supply, I think. No, but.
Tim Pool
No, no, this. Look, this thing's running around and doing flips and whatnot.
Chuck
All right?
Phil Labonte
If you go to Boston Dynamics actual website, they're not selling atlases.
Tim Pool
I know this thing is. It's got an internal power source. Yeah.
Phil Labonte
It's crazy.
Tim Pool
What is the problem? It's got 10 minutes of operating time.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, I mean, that's what. That's what I imagine it is, you know, but it's like.
Tim Pool
Oh, bro, I got it. I solved it already. What if.
Phil Labonte
Oh, but.
Tim Pool
Well, let me level watch. Do I think.
Phil Labonte
I think the problem is the AI. Oh, no.
Tim Pool
Look at it. It's doing its thing that's getting programmed. This is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I got an idea. Why can't I. Why can't I turn this up? Okay, what if. Okay, what? It's not let me turn it off. What if we, we make the robots and then we have it set up so that inside they have a small combustion engine, a small one that could run a generator. And then we have the robots drink alcohol to fuel to, to run the cert, to generate this energy for the fuel cells.
Chuck
Bender bend pipes and everything beams.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, but you know, just drinking gasoline.
Tim Pool
Yeah, I mean, to be, you know, honestly, what if there was a, a fuel source that ran a generator? A liquid fuel source is more dense. It probably is. It's easier to refill, but it's probably not more dense. Like, you know the problem with Teslas and like electric cars in general. So you know, with the baby, we were like, what, how do we, how do we get to the, the hospital? We can't drive the Tesla because if it runs out of power, we are not stopping for 20 to 40 minutes to figure out where a charger is and plug it in. So we're definitely not using that car. Right?
Chuck
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So the issue is like I got a Honda. You pump it full of gas, it holds the gas, it burns the gas, it moves, and it powers the electronics and everything in it through the alternator. Is there not a means to have something like that? So while it may not be as dense, you, you, you walk your robot to the gas station or the robot walks itself and then it picks the thing up and then sticks it in and then puts about a gallon of gas in and then it uses that gas to generate energy for its cells. Only when it's powering up. So it's a hybrid. Right. You charge it up, but it could then run a generator and you know, run off that.
Phil Labonte
I, I mean, I, I, the principle is that sound.
Tim Pool
No, I think the issue is that even with a gas or diesel generator inside its body, it couldn't generate enough energy fast enough on the size of the generator. So imagine trying to charge a Tesla off a diesel generator. Ain't happening. So energy density is probably a big problem. These robots probably last 10 minutes.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, I think a lot of, I think, I think it's a combination of the fact that they let the energy density and also the fact that like robots like that they're all, they have a pre programmed thing they're gonna do. It's not, it's not like there's an AI that's, that's doing this stuff. It doesn't, yeah, it's not spatially aware in the same way that an AI would be. Like, not that that technology isn't possible. It's just they haven't actually put them together yet, so. Because I mean, like I said, I mean, I. Me and my girlfriend went to, went on a hike today and we were driving back through kind of the back roads we came upon. We were and we were. It was full self driving. Got to a spot where they were doing tree cutting and the car just maneuvered through the whole thing. They put us over into the other lane for, you know, maybe a half mile, whatever. And the car had no issues, no hiccups, there was no, no confused kind of like, like, oh yeah. None of that. It was just, it just knew exactly what to do. It was perfectly as if like it was a person driving. It was really, really impressive.
Tim Pool
Oh, look at this.
Mike Crispy
There it is. The Tesla Optimus.
Tim Pool
Optimus jobs. I just looked up Tesla Optimus. I got a bunch of jobs available. Deep learning, manipulation engineer for Optimus. What's the pay, baby? What's the, what's the money you're offering? 140 to $360,000 annual salary, plus cash and stock awards and benefits.
Phil Labonte
Nice.
Chuck
That's not bad.
Tim Pool
That sounds like a great job. Because the best part about it is in 10 years when we're living in a post apocalyptic wasteland, running for our lives in these machines, you're going to be like, I made them.
Mike Crispy
You made them. And you can get a side gig at Doge in the meantime, you go to Doge a little bit, you know.
Tim Pool
Better yet, you're going to be sitting around a fire with your scraggly beard and you're going to be like. So you guys know how when you're running from the killbots, they can actually jump to the left and run across the wall to get over obstacles? And I'm the one who programmed that. They like, I hate you.
Phil Labonte
You did what?
Tim Pool
Did what? Hey, we all made mistakes.
Phil Labonte
Yeah, it's funny where everybody's a little bit guilty here. Everybody's made mistakes. Yeah.
Tim Pool
And the one guy's like, I was an insurance salesman. It's like that Black Mirror episode where the dogs are chasing everybody.
Chuck
I haven't seen that one.
Tim Pool
Yo, that was a, that, that, that was a good episode. It's basically like Amazon automated and took over and kept trying to deliver general goods to people, but the robots were killing them for some reason. I don't know. The whole world was destroyed because the AI went full Amazon and just automated everything for package delivery. So humans are mostly dead, but still delivering packages for no reason.
Chuck
That's a crazy episode.
Mike Crispy
It's pretty wild.
Tim Pool
Yep.
Mike Crispy
Deep Learning deep learning Manipulation engineer. That's pretty. That's crazy.
Tim Pool
Tesla's on a path to build humanoid robots at a scale to automate repetitive and boring tasks. Core to the optimist, the manipulation stack presents a unique opportunity to work on state of the art algorithms for object manipulation, culminating in the. Oh, okay. They're talking about manipulation as moving objects and things like that.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So I'm buying a bunch of those exosits for now. I already ordered some exosuits.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Oh, yeah.
Chuck
I'll try it on.
Tim Pool
Sure.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
It should be here in a week.
Chuck
Let's go.
Tim Pool
Very excited. Yeah. It says it increases your leg strength by 40%. Yeah, I'm gonna break it instantly. I'm going to scale. I'm going to mini ramp and be like, let's how high I can jump. Oh, geez. And a shatter. You see what happens?
Chuck
You'll be able to do the drop.
Tim Pool
No, that's, that, that's that, that's, that's a skill issue. Yeah, the, the, the death drop. All right, everybody smash the like button. Share the show with everyone. You know. We're gonna grab your super chance and Rumble rants and have a good time with it. If you haven't already, you can go to Casper.com and buy coffee and go to Timcast premium.com to join Rumble Premium.

Get involved, join the community, make friends. And we got a bunch of stuff planned. I think Our first Culture War Live is going to be in two months. We have a plan for a venue, we have a plan for a debate, and you, as members, will join at the event. It's a members only event, so it's time to be a member. If you want to get first comes, first come, first serve tickets, they're not going to cost anything. If you're a member, like, obviously they cost something, but as members, you just rsvp. Then we're going to allow people to submit debate talking points on the subject, where we will choose a handful of them to come up and join the debate with us. It's going to be fun. I'm sure it's going to be hilarious. And some people are going to have the stupidest arguments and some people will get discovered for their intellect. Let's go. We got Max Riddick. He says, tim, I know you don't do the booking, but I wanted to throw this one out there. Y'all should get Rob Knower back on. Well, okay. Let's see. We got Bitner, too, and says Howdy. Watching since 2020. Congrats to Tim and Allison. Please give a shout out to my Kickstarter Zone Beta, a retro stealth game about liberty and reality. Very cool. Did you guys hear that Washington Post? Bezos says he wants the new focus, the opinion page editorial, to be Personal Freedoms and Liberty.
Phil Labonte
Really good news.
Tim Pool
They're so mad. They're like, no, freedom is racist.
Phil Labonte
That is what they say.
Tim Pool
Native Patriot Sundays the remaining IRS offices should be converted to ERS offices. It would be huge for the American economy. What if Trump came out and just said, we're going to be getting rid of the Internal Revenue Service for the External Revenue Service? Income tax, it's gone. But for everybody else in the world, you'll pay income tax now to us. What if he just says, like, I don't care what country you're from, you have to give 20 of your income to America?
Mike Crispy
It might happen.
Chuck
I don't think they'll like that.
Tim Pool
I certainly would not.
Chuck
Probably.
Mike Crispy
Ers, it's going to happen.
Chuck
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Let's grab some more super chats. American Trucker 84 says, Please, Tim, please tell me you toast the Pop Tarts in a toaster before you put butter on it. Of course.
Phil Labonte
Of course the butter melts.
Tim Pool
I know. Silly questions. I think I did the strawberry Pop Tart with butter on it. I think tomorrow I'll try the Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop Tart with butter on it. It's got all the most disgusting chemicals in the world. You can think of tbhq, whatever, the tetro, hexel, whatever in it.
Chuck
So good.
Mike Crispy
RFK will not like this.
Tim Pool
Yeah, my. My deep fear is that I'm gonna be grabbing a pack of Pop Tarts and he's gonna lurk out of the shadows and go, what are you doing? I'm sorry, what do we have? All right, Game Republic. Just super chat. He says, my high school friend Clint Bonnell has been missing for over a month. He has a Green Beret and disappeared from his backyard in Fayetteville, North Carolina, without a trace. Someone out there knows something. Whoa.
Mike Crispy
Wow.
Tim Pool
That's crazy, man. Well, I hope you find them. And Clint, if you're out there, your friends are looking for you. Raymond G. Stanley Jew says F. Yeah, Chuck is on. Let's go.
Chuck
Thank you, Raymond.
Tim Pool
You know, Chuck is a. Is an excellent interviewer for Green Room. He just asks the people to tell their stories and lets them roll with it, and it works out really well.
Chuck
I just like hearing about other people, you know, it's always interesting to hear what you're coming from because everybody's got different perspectives from all over the world and everything they do. So I find that always interesting to find out something about other people.
Tim Pool
And we hired him because he super chatted.
Chuck
Yes, that's right.
Tim Pool
Wow. It was super chatting. And then we were like, we gotta hire somebody. And we're like, what about that guy? To super chatting. Like, okay, we hired him.
Chuck
All I did was say is art, socks, Armenia. And then here I am.
Tim Pool
Raymond. Raymond G. Stanley Jr. Too. I think people need. And Phil, too.
Chuck
But I was first. I was.
Tim Pool
I was before Raymond and Phil super chatted.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
I guess the way you get hired at Tim cast is you super chat the show and say, like, here's what I do. And then we go, hey, look at this guy.
Phil Labonte
Basically bothered Tim while he's working.
Chuck
Yep.
Tim Pool
Yeah. Otherwise, I have no idea. Yeah, because people are always like, tim, who does? I don't do booking. Lisa does booking. You know, it's like, I don't know, you gotta talk to her. But then people on the show, you know, Chuck was super chatting. Yeah. It's funny. To be fair, though, Phil had been on the show, I think, a couple times already.
Phil Labonte
Three or four times.
Tim Pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then he super chatted.
Phil Labonte
We were already friendly.
Tim Pool
Well, it was. It was. It was. It was a bribe, you know. No, that's not the case.
Phil Labonte
$5.
Tim Pool
Lucky chariot says the IRS should be abolished. They engage in extortion, and for some reason, they don't have to tell you how much you owe based. Literally. No one else in the country could do that and get away with it. Yes. Seriously? Yeah, maybe I should. Maybe I should run my business like that. Let's see how that works. We'll provide a service. We don't tell you how much it costs, but when you use it, we'll bill you. Or no, when you use it, you pay us.
Mike Crispy
And if you get it wrong, you're in trouble.
Tim Pool
If you get it right, if it's.
Chuck
Not enough, you want more. Yeah.
Mike Crispy
You get it wrong, we'll say.
Tim Pool
How much do I. You. I don't know.
Chuck
You find out.
Tim Pool
How much should I pay you? You figure it out. That's a great business model. Well, I guess the business model is that they show up to your house with guns if you don't do it. Yes. Yeah.
Chuck
Sounds like.
Tim Pool
What is it? What do you call that? A extortion racket.
Chuck
Sounds like the Mafia, certainly.
Tim Pool
Hal gailey says single first 25ks untaxed 10 flat tax. Married first 50ks on tax 10% flat. Flat tax, untaxed. Amount goes up 5k for every kid. I think if you have three kids, you're tax exempt.
Chuck
Doesn't Poland do that? Yes, it's two.
Tim Pool
Two kids every Hungary and like Hungary.
Chuck
And Poland every like two.
Mike Crispy
I think more countries are starting to another. Somebody said that the other day.
Chuck
I think they exempt if you have two kids.
Mike Crispy
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Oh, Phil looks serious.
Phil Labonte
Oh, well. A little breaking news from cnn. It's not the biggest news, but.
Tim Pool
Oh, okay. That's actually, I mean, I don't know. Supreme Court paused a midnight deadline for the Trump administration to pay 2 billion dollar in frozen foreign aid.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Tim Pool
What?
Mike Crispy
What?
Chuck
What?
Phil Labonte
There was a. There was.
Tim Pool
Yeah. So. So Trump said no foreign aid. Then a lower court said, you must pay it. And the Supreme Court says no, no, put a hold on this.
Phil Labonte
Yeah.
Chuck
Okay.
Phil Labonte
So.
Mike Crispy
So we don't have to pay the.
Tim Pool
Foreign aid for now. Yeah, and we shouldn't.
Mike Crispy
It's wild that a court would be able to tell the President, who you know, handles that kind of stuff, that he has to pay the. The court can tell the President that he has to pay the foreign aid.
Tim Pool
Absolutely. That's the checks and balances. 3 CO. Equal branches. The issue arises when Trump, who's in control of the doj, says I want the DOJ to go do this. Like when Trump says the. So the executive power is vested in the President as per the Constitution. Therefore, all independent federal agencies must be supervised by me. And then all the Democrats are like, no, he's seizing power. And it's like he had it from the beginning. But as it pertains to foreign spending that Congress allots. Yes. Then the executive branch manages. The Supreme Court can intervene on behalf of litigating parties to determine whether or not Trump.
Phil Labonte
Who's the. Who's the. The. Which court was it that actually put the initial. The initial finding that said you have. They have to pay, spend the money because Trump. The situation is. Trump said, we're going to pause this foreign aid because it's related to the usaid, right?
Tim Pool
No, I don't think so.
Phil Labonte
Oh, no, this is the. Yeah. Okay. All right.
Tim Pool
So the issue is, anything Trump does can be challenged and the Supreme Court can intervene and then say yes or no.
Mike Crispy
And they did. And they did. In this case for Trump, the question.
Tim Pool
Is, is the Supreme Court doing the right thing? And we have a liberal court. The answer is usually no. And we have a conservative court. The answer is usually yes, which sometimes sucks, but sometimes is the right thing to do. So that's what Democrats can't seem to understand.
Phil Labonte
Yep.
Tim Pool
Is that they think the conservative leaning justices are just like, twirling their mustache, being like, we will turn the country into the Federalist Papers, when in actuality the conservatives are like, I don't know. Or care about gay marriage. The Constitution doesn't say you can do this. So it's not an ideal for them. It's ideological from conservatives. It's. It's functional. Yeah, but if Trump does something and someone sues, the Supreme Court can say, trump can or cannot do that. And it could pause. They could put an injunction on his actions. Usually a good court's going to be like, that is absolutely within the purview of the executive branch. We have nothing to do with this. And it has happened, actually.
Mike Crispy
And that's what the Supreme Court just said, essentially.
Tim Pool
Well, no, they just put a pause.
Chuck
On it, which is okay.
Tim Pool
You know, they put a pause on the order stopping Trump. They're saying, trump, keep doing your thing. We'll wait. We're gonna figure this. We figure this out.
Mike Crispy
Okay.
Tim Pool
Till they rule out, like, temporary.
Mike Crispy
I see, I see.
Tim Pool
Well, if they do, I don't know. All right. Madhoso says, I'm at the hospital with my wife. We're having a baby girl. This is our third. We have two boys. Welcome to the world. Cora. Violet Ormerod.
Phil Labonte
Congratulations.
Tim Pool
Congratulations.
Chuck
Congrats.
Tim Pool
Big D says tax service is a billion dollar industry. They tax more. They get to tax you paying taxes. They don't want taxes to go away, all those payrolls, business and even the payment upon doing it. The FAT files did a video on it. People need to understand that a lot of industries that shouldn't exist exist for the purpose of economic drivers. So the reason why they don't want to get of it, as you pointed out, you shut down the tax industry, every tax office closes, everyone loses their job and it's bad for the economy. Health industry, same thing. Why won't they overhaul the insurance industry and our healthcare system? It's what, 20% of our economy. It's not an issue of whether it's right or wrong. It's how many people are going to lose their jobs overnight. And will that destroy the American economy? They don't care about, nobody cares about the long term plan. That's the problem. Or they don't know how to do it. At least the AI will. You know, the AI is going to be scary. I was, I described it a few years ago like this. There's going to be a gig app called, you know, worker or something. It's not going to be in an ian, it's going to be W O R K R. And you're gonna be like, I need money. You're gonna open up your app and it's gonna say job available. You're gonna click and say, 50 bucks. And you go, all right, what do I do? And then it says, wait on, on the corner of 47th and Lexington for this man. And I'll show a picture of a guy. He will hand you this object and there'll be a strange mechanical object. And then it'll be like, step three, carry the object to this address. And I'll show a picture of a building and you'll go, okay. You'll stand in the corner. A guy will show up and he'll be like, here you go. And you'll go, thanks. You'll walk to the place, there'll be another guy. He'll be like, that's for me. You'll go, here you go. Thanks. And then the app's gonna go, you got money? And you're like, cool. You're gonna have no idea what you're building and it won't matter because it is more efficient for the AI to offer up jobs than it is to find specialists. So think about it this way. There's a whole bunch of industries. One guy, he builds a mechanical device that needs to be delivered to his office, you know, on the other side of town. And so he's like, all right, right. We're going to get a courier. So they call a courier service. The courier shows up on the bike. They say, here's the box. Get on your bike, Drive it down here. Seems pretty simple. You know, it's easier than that. A guy knocks on your door right when you're finished with the object, and you hand it to him without even calling anybody. That guy hands it to another guy who was already going in that direction. Deliver. Deliver a hot dog hands it to another guy. The AI can see all of this in real time and offer this up rapidly. So it's like you're not even know what your job is. You're. They're going to be like, take this shovel and dig a hole right here. And you go, sure. And you're going to dig a hole, and you're like, I'm done. 50 bucks. And you're going to leave. Then some other guy's going to walk up with a tree and put it in there, and he's going to be like, there you go. The future is. Is coming, my friends.
Chuck
Easy.
Tim Pool
All right. RAM Tax says many get more in refunds than they pay in taxes. No. IRS would mean higher tax on lower incomes, though. Lost credits and benefits. This would piss people off. Not if we fix that and people aren't paying more than they're supposed to.
Chuck
Refunds are bad.
Tim Pool
Yeah. Like giving the government free money and then just crossing your fingers you get it back is the stupidest thing ever. All right, Devin Poor said. Tim. I'm having an issue with my Tim Cast Rumble subscription. I had a short lapse in my car due to fraud issues. I've been a paying member of Tim cast in 2022, but have now lost my Rumble premium. What can I do to fix this? I got to talk to. Right. We knew this was an issue because we had a lot of members. It's a very common thing. People become members, and then if a card expires, they hit us up a few weeks later, like, oh, crap, I need to update my card. So we need to fix that because there's a lot of people who should get it, and we want you to get it. I actually think it'd be cool if we did, like, an amnesty where it's like, if you re. Sign up today only then we will include it. But it's not to me. I got to talk to Rumble. Let me. Let me follow through. You should. You should email the members. What is it? Membersimcast.com right?
Chuck
Yeah.
Tim Pool
With your. With your issue. And then I'm going to talk to the people over at Rumble and see if we can figure that out. Obviously, for anybody who was an active member but their card lapsed or expired or something, that shouldn't impact it. They should be active and that. We just have to sort that one out. But I think it'd be really cool if we did, like, a sign back up and get amnesty kind of thing. Would be great. We'll see. Maybe you can't do it. BP says IRS closed offices in 2020. That never reopened. And did away with phone support options. Mail only for some stuff. Your opinion on CFPB rule to cap bank overdraft fees at, like, $5? Not yet in effect. I don't know what that is.
Chuck
I'm okay with them capping the overdraft fees. Those are annoying. Not that it happens a lot, but when it does, you know.
Tim Pool
All right, Michael, how do you pronounce this? Cicciarelli? Is that how you pronounce it? I don't know. He says, shout out to Mike in studio and then did, like, 800 of these.
Mike Crispy
Because I'm a paisan. Yeah, good paisans in the chat. Okay, if you're a paison, drop a one of these in the chat. That's right.
Tim Pool
Valkyrie Design says Bondi says Epstein. List tomorrow. The Oscars are on Sunday. Masterful timing.
Chuck
Oh, well, that'll be.
Tim Pool
Oh, actually, I wonder if that's on purpose. This. It's Thursday. Tomorrow's Thursday. You can't put. You cannot. You can't put breaking news out on a Friday. So if you want to get maximum impact for a weekend, Thursday is the PR day.
Mike Crispy
Tomorrow's. Tomorrow's show is going to be something.
Chuck
Oh, boy.
Mike Crispy
It's gonna be good, man.
Tim Pool
I'm so excited.
Chuck
Who's the biggest actor thinks on there?
Mike Crispy
What'd you say?
Chuck
Is what the biggest actor on the list you think is gonna be on there?
Tim Pool
I don't know.
Mike Crispy
That we don't already know.
Chuck
We don't already know. Like, the biggest surprise, man.
Tim Pool
I don't know. I have no idea. I don't follow these people.
Chuck
Good.
Tim Pool
Everyone's got their guesses, though. It'll be funny if it's, like, a big list of people that work in, like, a weird industry no one's ever heard of, like, the professional horseback polo players or something. And it's like, wait, what? Epstein's clients were all just these guys. It's like, yeah, Tom Hanks not there. Never went. Everybody was wrong. What do we have here? The road rage. Langdon says, can we talk about the Absolute win. With Cash being both the FBI director and acting director of the atf. Does this mean the F FBI will dismantle the ATF and the NFA and taxation is theft. It is the speculation with naming Cash as the ATF Acting director is that they intend to shutter the atf. Yes.
Mike Crispy
Let's go.
Tim Pool
And it should. But I'm not saying get. Look, personally, the gun laws are all infringements. Outside of that, the ATF should be. This should be not. Not controversial. The ATF is just an additional department for law enforcement that should easily operate under the FBI. There's no reason to have an extra department for this. You just. It's a part of the FBI. What do I care? Stop wasting money. Eric F says if you can create a virtual heaven, you can create a virtual hell. Demolition Man.
Chuck
Oh, also true.
Tim Pool
Yep. Yeah. But the pro. The thing is with liberals, they'd never allow you to make a virtual hell prison. They'd be like, no, no. You have to give them everything they could ever want and more.
Phil Labonte
And they would question is, if you give some, if you give people in a virtual scenario everything they want, would that be like. Would that be like a form of hell? Would it be like you have nothing to. Nothing to aspire to, nothing to desire? Everything you've ever wanted is given to you. Like, there's so much. There's so many people that find joy in the experience. The, you know, the whole, you know, the journey is the. Is the important part. Getting there is. Is the. Is the fun part. Like the processes is where people. The process of learning is what's great. If everything is delivered all the time, whenever, whatever you want. And what would that do the human psychology?
Tim Pool
So real Hydro says, Tim, I already won't make things because of ips. It doesn't matter how good they can make things. It will have. It will have to be things not owned by others. Incorrect. For as many of you may be aware, I made an image using, I believe it was Grok of Donald Trump caressing a pregnant Sonic the Hedgehog and posted it on X. I blame Seamus. But people make images of Mario, Mickey and all of these characters using these. These AIs. They absolutely do. And it's considered transformative. Fair use. Like if I. I could right now draw a cartoon of Mario boxing Pikachu at its fair use. I'm allowed to do it. And then I could literally say, mario Boxes Pikachu. It's transformative. I'm mocking something. Allowed to do it. That's why AI does this stuff. But let's just say companies get wary about and there's lawsuits. I guarantee you Disney is going to team up with whatever AI company and say we should offer a 15, 1499 bundle addition to your bundle that gives you AI entertainment. So you'll get the full library of Disney content, which includes Hulu, Marvel, Star wars, and you'll get AI movie generator for an extra 15 bucks a month. Month. And then you're gonna sit there and you're gonna be like, I want to see Darth Vader. A movie just about Darth Vader. Like just tearing things up.
Phil Labonte
At the end of end of Rogue One, which is the whole movie, right?
Tim Pool
Yeah. And people will do it. And then like I said, it's going to get likes, so they're going to share it with their friends. They're like, hey, watch this movie I generated turn up. Be pretty good. Some of it will be bad. I bet most of it will be pretty okay. SUNO S U N O Music AI.
Mike Crispy
Yeah, I've seen that.
Tim Pool
Yeah. The instrumental music generation is perfect. The. The lyrics and the vocal melodies are the worst thing I've ever heard in my life. I was talking to my brother about it. He was like, yo, this A is really good. Listen. And then it's like if you ask the AI to sing and write lyrics, it is kindergarten level rhyming and it's singing about city streets and city lights and nothing else. Yeah. Like every song is called Neon Light, City Streets or whatever. So you can write the lyrics yourself. The problem is the melodies always suck. But if you just make the underlying music, which is very basic and then you can get someone who knows how to write melodies, then you're cranking out some bangers. The feature is here already for music. Like, I'm sorry, music's done. Phil. I'm sorry you're out of work. I'm gonna go on sooner right now and I'm gonna say give. I'm gonna say give me a new all that Remains album and it'll do it. And then I'll go through a hundred songs, pick ten that are good, and then that's it.
Phil Labonte
Drag.
Tim Pool
Wow. But Zachary Levi was talking about this. The Hollywood's over. Like these people are fighting for an industry that nobody watches the award shows anymore. Movies have been bombing as of lately. Disney lost a billion dollars and AI is going to come in and replace everybody. The first movies I think we'll see before they get to the self user generated AI movies. You are going to have Disney in a studio instead of hiring animators they're going to get like five guys to sit around putting in props to an AI and then refining it over and over again to make the movies. And they're going to be able to get a Spider man movie done in a month just like from start to finish. There we go, baby. All right, we'll grab one more here. Darren Defner says you guys stumbled on a genius, genius idea. Convicted prisoners can opt to be connected to a normal life neuralink get a degree trained in virtual world than leave prison as an electrical engineer or even a rocket scientist. The issue with a lot of criminals however, is not that they can't do it, it's that they have violent tendencies or. Yeah, like no one makes a person be a criminal. And. And the left seems to think that it's like that crime is driven by people who are just desperate. Like AOC was like, oh, these looters need bread. And it's like, bro, they're stealing like Louis Vuitton bags. They. There are people in Chicago that commit crimes because it's part of a culture of going hard. They call it quote coming up and things like that. We'll see my friends. Smash the like button. If you, if you would please share the show with everyone you know.
