Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the absolute state of the American liberal.

There's no sound of the video. It's just a guy in a four wheeler ramming a Tesla Cybertruck. He is morbidly obese and he's carrying something on the back. I don't I don't know what he's doing, but welcome to America, my friends, where a man crashes a four wheeler into a Tesla Cybertruck. That's where we're at. That's that's the state of this country. Now, it's not the biggest story in the world, but I do think it matters quite a bit because

This is the arrest made after TPUSA chapter president violently assaulted by a leftist wielding a bike lock on Texas campus. The reason why I think this story matters. Well, my friends, there is a story going back to Berkeley in the what is this? Twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, where a guy went around with a bike lock bashing people in the head. And I think it was four or five people. And this has been a common tactic of the far left.

This is the low degree of terror that they seek to inflict upon people, not just the attacks on Teslas that are more violent, like the bombs that were placed in this dealership, but just in general. You've got people that are planting explosives everywhere.

Fire bombing vehicles, smashing them up, smashing windows, shooting BB guns at them. But it ranges from the lowest tier of knocking your hat off your head, screaming in your face to actually threatening you with death, bashing you in the face with a bike lock. They want to hit you in every every capacity so that you fall in line and march in lockstep with their worldview. That is the world we are currently faced with.

And that's why I think the story matters. Now, in a bigger context, we've got the FBI launching a task force going after these extremists. Dan Bongino saying, if you're going to commit acts of domestic terrorism, we will come for you. And so, my friends, something needs to change. If Donald Trump and the Republicans do not get their act together and succeed, and maybe they do, maybe they do, maybe I'm just being unfair. Well, then we lose this in the midterms. But based on the current polling results,

I think we're doing all right. The current polling suggests Democrats ain't going to be able to muster up anything in the midterms, though we did just see in Pennsylvania they flipped a state Senate seat, which is bad news. But I do think that Dan Bongino, Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, I think Donald Trump, they are making moves that will succeed. We've got the signal scandal going on. But as I mentioned in an earlier video, guys.

That story doesn't matter. Nothing will come of it. No one's going to get brought up on perjury charges for lying under oath. They're going to argue that times are not targets. Planes are not discussion of weapons. It's all semantic and it's meaningless. In the meantime...

The feds are going after the far left. Donald Trump is requiring citizenship to vote. And these moves are being made. So let's start here once again, covering the issue of the terror that we see from the far left. I want to give a shout out to Steven Crowder and the Mug Club for joining this show. Welcome to Rumble Live's morning lineup. Before we get started, my friends, we've actually got a great sponsor for all of you. It's Brickhouse Nutrition's Field of Greens.

Each fruit and vegetable was doctor-selected for a specific health benefit. There's a heart health group, lungs and kidney groups, even healthy weight.

I love the energy that I get with this. Seriously, when I'm so I skate every day after I wrap this show, we handle a bunch of like posting and stuff. I drop this. I get a bottle of water.

All I know is they sent us this, and it's actually super delicious. It's legit really good. And it's got vitamins because one of the things I've been concerned about is getting proper amounts of magnesium and stuff like that. So shout out to Field of Green sponsoring the show. Really do appreciate it.

And let's let's jump into that news. Smash the like button. Share the show with everyone. You know, we've got some interesting updates. And admittedly, I'm starting light with this story. It's a singular story having to do with Charlie Kirk. But I want to get into the granular of this to explain how this stuff deeply affects us. But don't get me wrong. We've got the task force that was launched by by the feds. Do we have this one? No.

The task force story from the FBI going after these people. So at the highest levels, we had the bomb squad out in Texas. But we'll start here. This is from the Post Millennial.

The Postmanial reports the University of Texas at Dallas Campus Police have arrested the suspect involved in the attack on TPUSA Chapter President Paige Newman and Vice President Grace. TPUSA CEO Charlie Kirk confirmed the arrest on social media, stating that the individual has been placed in jail, according to information from the Collin County, Texas Police Department's website. The suspect listed as Liam Tan Tam Nguyen is a biological male. Now, this is interesting. Um,

Charlie Kirk put this out saying our chapter president, Paige Newman, and her secretary were just assaulted while tabling at the University of Texas at Dallas. The attacker took a metal bike lock and slammed it against Paige's head, hitting her so hard that it completely I think this is a broker phone. I think she was on the phone that completely shattered her phone. It's unclear if the perpetrator is female or trans. Paige has filed a police report with the university police who are thankfully taking this matter seriously and are currently searching for the individual. They're

Thankfully, Paige and her chapter VP, Grace, who was also destroyed, are both physically doing okay. Our TPUSA students are the tip of the spear on college campuses across the country. They are brave, strong, and resilient. Thank God for these amazing students. So here you've got a picture of the bike lock strike.

This individual has been arrested and it is a biological male. Now, notably, this individual also attacked Alex Stein, primetime 99 in Texas, kicking over his mic. Not the most egregious of attacks. I think, my friends, this shows desperation.

The violent attacks that we've been seeing from the far left on people who support Donald Trump shows they've got nothing left right now. As I mentioned, you've got these people that are having the Democrats are having these hearings where they're calling out Tulsi Gabbard. Hexeth is saying you've got to resign. This is this is crazy. You leaked a message to a journalist. And I'm just sitting here like, guys, really? That's what you've got. Man, Democrats are desperate. They're very desperate.

The polling data suggests the party is in disarray. There's no party leader. When polled, it's also it's just flat across the board. AOC can only muster 10 percent. Some polls suggest that people are going to stand behind Kamala for 2028. That's nuts. They've got nothing. The signal scandal is interesting. I kind of think it may have been a PR move, but now I'm kind of doubting that with the latest information that's come out. But there's nothing really there.

In the meantime, you have the escalation of terror attacks. Look at this one. This is a story from the other day. We went over a little bit, but here's another update. Bomb squad deployed as multiple incendiary devices found at Tesla dealership in Texas. The New York Post reports.

Several incendiary devices were found at a dealership in Texas. The bomb squad was deployed around 8 a.m. Monday after receiving a call about suspicious objects that had been found there. They were determined to be working incendiary devices and taken away by the police. No suspects or motivations of the case have been released. Oh, come on.

As if we don't know the motivations for these attacks. Previous attacks have happened across the country with Tesla cars and charging stations being vandalized, torched, and even shot up by rogue activists. Both Attorney General Pam Bondi and President Trump have called the attackers domestic terrorists and vowed to prosecute with a heavy hand. Which brings me back to that first tweet. Just for those that may have missed it, ladies and gentlemen, I give you the absolute state of liberals in the United States. Is this for real? Yeah.

Guys, and then he tries to reverse. There you go. Come on, buddy. You can get it. There you go. Get it. What's on his backpack? I don't know if you guys have seen this video. It's a morbidly obese man in a four-wheeler ramming a Cybertruck. I don't know what he's got in the back. It's like an air pump or something. Something maybe if like the tires deflate. I don't know what else he's got in there. Is that a baseball bat? Yo, part of me thinks it's a hoax. It's fake. I'm not sure I completely believe it. But anyway, maybe it's real fine.

We've got this post from Chase Geiser. What is currently going on with Tesla owners and other individuals who are supporting Donald Trump can be easily exemplified in this photo. It's a photo of a Tesla, what appears to be a Model 3. And they wrote with glass chalk or whatever it's called. They're right on the glass. Bought in 2020. We stand with LGBTQ plus. They may as well have just written on the car. Please don't hurt me.

Because that's the reality of what they're actually saying. Jennifer Zerbs posted on Blue Sky. If I happen to own a Tesla, that thing would be covered bumper to bumper in liberal bumper stickers and resistance messages. Otherwise, I'd have to sell my car. Good luck. Chase Geyser says, if you have to explain to members of your political party why they shouldn't vandalize your property, then you are in the wrong political party. I mean, worse than that, then, you know, you are dealing with extremists and terrorists and

And I'm going to give you some context right now. As we've been talking about this for some time, you have the far left engaging in the lowest tier of terrorism up to the highest tier of administrative attacks against Donald Trump and what he's currently got going on. Call it whatever you want. You know, I really do mean it when I try to say that I try to tone things down. But I think there's a truth to what we are currently seeing in this country. And maybe it's just...

I don't know. Maybe we're on the back end of this with Trump winning. Democrats on the far left have become desperate and they're not going to succeed in this regard. But even after the summer of love.

I thought with the summer of love, Trump would surely win. I do think probably some election shenanigans altered what we actually thought was going to be in the public sphere. That is to say, universal mail-in voting made it substantially easier for people who are indoctrinated by the corporate press to just drop a ballot in the mailbox. Trump is making moves against this, requiring proof of citizenship to actually vote, which is one of the biggest moves he's made. And the Democrats don't seem to be paying attention to it.

Take a look at this story from Medium, and I'm going to give you the context that I know many of you may already know, but some of you may not. For those that have not been paying attention as long as the rest of us, I mean, look, there's a lot of people out there. I get these messages. They say, Tim, we know about the riots. We know about the terrorism. We know about the vandalism. You don't need to tell us. I tell you this. There could be a 20-year-old kid right now.

20 years old. He's voting. He just started watching because we know for me, particularly 18 to 25 is about one third, maybe like 27 percent. I think the number is a little bit less than a third of our viewer viewer demographics. This means an 18 year old was 13 when the George Floyd riots went down and they terrorized us and they don't know these things. They weren't really paying attention.

Heck, you could have 17-year-olds at the time weren't really paying attention. You could have 20-year-olds. They're 25 today. And back then, they weren't really paying attention. Now, as people are graduating college, Gen Z is stepping into the fray. They're taking the reins and taking control. They're wondering, what the is going on? Take a look at this story from Michael Tracy from 2020. Man, it feels like just yesterday.

Two months since the riots and still no national conversation. What was fascinating is that even back then, Michael Tracy pointed out the worst riots we had in 50 years, overt acts of terror against the American people. And we never talked about it. There were no hearings. There were no mass arrests. There was no Capitol Police popping up all over the country. There were no raids. There were no there was no solitary confinement. Nothing. Take a look at this. Here are the photos.

St. Paul, Minnesota, a pho restaurant. You guys know that is like the Vietnamese soup. Not a fan of it, by the way, but that's fine. They should have to board up their windows. They did. There's a sign on the door. I don't know if we can actually read it. These are photos taken by Michael Tracy as he drove across the country following the worst riots we'd seen in generations. Now, I don't want to read through everything he wrote because it is an old story. I just want to show you the photos. Take a look at this. AJ's Food Market opened 24-7, boarded up. This is, does he have the location here? He doesn't.

Here's Rock and Roll Cafe boarded up home slice pizza boarded up. You know, why were all these small businesses boarding up their windows? We got this Fort Wayne in a heart for Teza coffee. Here you can see boarded up windows. We will not be silent with the communist fist. You see right there. See that fist in the bottom corner. That is the communist. That is the Marxist fist.

It is used by Black Lives Matter was and it represents communism. Here you go. The Macedonian Tribune boarded up. You've got all of these post office boarded up. Green Bay Press Gazette looks like they didn't board up. They had a window smashed out. Here's another business. All their windows are boarded up. Justice for Briona. Say their names. The reason why they're putting these messages on the on the boarded up windows is because they're basically saying, please don't hurt me.

That's what's really sad. I wonder if he has it. Here's Cosmo Beauty. Again, the windows are just everything's covered. I think he might have a here you go. Beauty supply. Black owned business in the window. It says, what does that say? You you must have a mask on. No mask, no service. That's funny. No walk-ins here. Here you go. Black owned businesses. They put these signs in their window. Black lives matter because when they can't afford to board up, this is what they do.

This was always the intention of these terror attacks. Here's one that I think matters the most. Please don't hurt us. Man, that one gets at me. That one rips at my heart. You guys see that? Please don't hurt us. Here's one to the right. Please don't hurt us. We support BLM. I was in Oakland several years ago, like eight years ago. And there's a Burger King with a big sign in the window. It says we are not a corporate location. We are a family, a family owned small business. Please don't hurt us.

I got to tell you, man, I don't know if that matters because I think these people are zombified. They're hypnotized, whatever. I've been saying something happened where it seems like people's IQ points have dropped 10 points in the past several years. I'll tell you the most effective sign I've ever seen a homeless man hold in my life. You ever walk down the street, see a homeless guy holding a sign and it'll be like, I'm hungry or something.

And then people started doing these jokes because they went viral on the Internet. One guy had a sign and it said, who am I kidding? I'm going to buy beer. And you're like, uh-huh. Ha ha ha. And everybody laughs. It was at least he's being honest. And they want to give him the money. I once saw a guy in Chicago and he was holding up a sign. He had his head down and he was just standing there. And it said, I have nothing. Please understand. And I was like, hope he didn't even ask for money. I was like, damn.

That that that rips at you. Seeing these signs, please don't hurt us, fills me with such rage. I want all of these people in prison, but we never got it. We never got it. Look at all of these photos that Michael Tracy got every restaurant, every store saying, please don't hurt us. Please spare us. Buildings burnt to the ground by these terrorists. And we got nothing.

This was during Donald Trump's administration. Here you go. This store is heavily guarded 24-7. I like that one. And it makes you wonder when you see this stuff. You know, I think I have this here. We should go with this one from the Washington Post. Night of destruction across D.C. as after protesters clash with police outside White House. We got nothing.

I wonder if the strategy from the Trump administration was to let the far left run rampant so that it would boost him in the election. And I think it probably did. I don't think it was enough to overcome universal mail-in voting, but this is what we saw. Trump could have come in. He could have crushed this, but they didn't. What ended up happening in D.C.? Well, here's the story from The Washington Post.

Look at this. Fires erupt at a tense day of protests. They call them protests. They call January 6th an insurrection and they call fires, flames, firebombs, attacks, protests. They can never say the word riot. Donald Trump had police come in and clear out the terrorists. That's what they are from in front of the White House.

Far left extremists ripped down the barricades, injured over 100 law enforcement, firebombed the White House grounds, firebombed St. John's Church. The news is right here for you. And we got nothing today. Dan Bongino says we're going to go after these people. Let me see. Here you go. Dan Bongino tweeted. Today is March 25th. It was yesterday, by the way. And if you're considering an act of domestic terrorism, then no, we will hunt you down and find you.

Kash Patel said the FBI has been investigating the increase in violent activity toward Tesla. And of the last few days, we have taken additional steps to crack down and coordinate our response. This is domestic terrorism. Those responsible will be pursued, caught and brought to justice. Forty two point nine million views. I don't think we're going to get justice for what happened back then. Trump didn't stop it. He stopped in front of the White House. He did nothing for the other cities.

Trump's strategy the whole time, I think, was hands off. And again, I wonder if the move was sort of let the far left run amok and these people shall reap what they have sown. And then we can use it against them. But they didn't really do that. They didn't really do that. What Donald Trump. Let me put it this way. They're making moves now. And I got the story for you. Right. FBI launches task force. I think I have another one. Here you go. Look at this.

From the globe, from global news that see a bunker boy. Trump mocked for hiding from protesters at White House. You know, they were they were throwing firebombs on the White House grounds. They torched one of the guard posts. They set fire to St. John's Church. They were beating police officers. Yes, there was a fear as they tore the barricades down in front of the White House. They would try to breach the White House. And so they brought Trump to the bunker. Trump, you know what, man?

I don't know what he was thinking. He wasn't a wartime president, meaning he did not consider strategies and tactics. He played everything very straightforward. Maybe he's still doing it. But let me tell you about that day. Donald Trump comes out and says, I was only down there for a little bit. I was just briefly down there just checking it out. Donald Trump should have said the threat of violence from the far left was so extreme with the firebombing of the White House grounds and the and we had a fear that

that an escalation could result in other protesters who are being peaceful being injured. We decided to pull back, allow law enforcement to their job, but bring the president. Trump said, but I went down to the bunker. I did not want to be caught in a fray between far left terrorists and and the Secret Service. He could have, but he didn't. So they didn't play into it. They didn't stop it nationwide. Trump was playing everything straightforward. He genuinely thought

We do this slow. We do this right. And that is weak. This is what I describe as wartime presidency. Today, Donald Trump needs to consider what he has to do to survive. And that's in the literal sense and protect this country. That means if a judge issues an unconstitutional ruling, you got to say no, we're not playing that game. And they did.

When Judge Boasberg says, I want to know what you were doing with those planes. The executive branch said, executive secrecy. We have privilege. Bye. They're called co-equal branches. They can just do that if they want. The legislation can impeach if they think something's going on. They can pass legislation. Good luck. The enforcement mechanism lies with the executive, giving them a lot of practical power. So it's all about who's willing to play the game and to what extent. Something I've mentioned quite a bit, and I'll tell you how Donald Trump

Could have won 2020. Very easy. I'm not saying he should do this. I'm not saying he should have. But I think for those of you who have heard me talk about it, you get it. But let me know what you guys think. Comment. Smash the like button as well. Of course, share the show. Follow me on X and Instagram at Tim Cass. But again, when the far left attacked the White House and they firebombed it, Trump sent in law enforcement. Bill Barr sent in law enforcement, cleared him out. You know what would have happened if they didn't do that?

Imagine this scenario. A thousand plus far leftists are in front of the White House with weapons. Trump issues the order, pull all law enforcement out, get them out now. Now, Mayor Bowser at the time may have had other plans. She may say, no, no, I want the police to go in. But Trump could have said, no, get him out. And he could have got them out. What would have happened if he did?

The far left would have tore down the barricades followed by the fencing at the White House. They would have firebombed the grounds. They would have stormed into the White House with Trump in the bunker. There would have been it would have been a major catastrophe. Now, I know many people have said the media would just lie about it. They'd say Trump at the White House fall. Totally fine. What would have happened in November if this was the scenario? Police would have moved in after the fact, cleared protesters out of the White House after they've ransacked it and destroyed it.

They would have. There would have been mass arrests, just like J6. Trump would come out and give a statement and say it's a dark day for this country. Far left extremists have stormed the White House, overwhelming our security forces, and they have destroyed history. We successfully repelled the attack. These people will go to prison. That would have terrified people. The far left would have been on the chopping block of the social order instead.

Trump cleared them out and the media claimed Trump injured innocent protesters. They were peaceful. They called Trump bunker boy. And then Trump went across street and took a picture holding a Bible in front of St. John's Church that they saved. And they said he attacked peaceful protesters for a photo op. It's the nature of how conflict works in this country or in the world, I should say. I'm not suggesting Trump should have done this. It's a bit unscrupulous if you ask me, but we get it. The media would have come out and said, how could you have let this happen?

And it's an easy statement. Peaceful protesters were in that crowd. And we did not believe that these people would attack the White House. So we were prepared to defend internally. But we really never thought this possible. The media had been telling us these were peaceful protests and we had no reason to believe otherwise.

We instructed law enforcement to stand down out of fear that just because there were a few bad actors, we could read the resulting movements from police could injure the peaceful protesters. We now know that was a mistake. Then when the media says Trump flundered and Trump failed, it's so simple. Trump simply comes out and says, you're right. The media is absolutely correct. We failed America. We failed you.

We should not have allowed far left terrorists to run rampant in this in this country. That's right. We should have stopped the far left terrorists. Well, my friends, we are going to get them and prosecute them and mark my words. We will have justice for what they did in burning down St. John's Church and storming the White House. He'd won. Too many people would be terrified. I think he would have won handily.

But Trump's not that guy. He was never the dictator. He was never the despot. He was never playing dirty games. It was overt. He let the states handle their own law enforcement. He didn't invoke the Insurrection Act to stop the riots in Portland or Seattle. He didn't shut down the Chaz Chop or the autonomous zones in Minnesota or Atlanta. He said that state law enforcement state handle handles that. I'm the president. I don't do that. And then he had the police clear out the protesters. It's the right thing to do. But look at J6.

January 6th was weaponized by Democrats to go after Trump and try and put him in prison. They went after his lawyers. They tried to disqualify him from the presidency. So again, when you watch these videos of J6 and the police are refusing to do anything, it makes you wonder. Some people suggest there was a stand down order. Maybe that was the case because they wanted Trump supporters to storm the White House so they could use that as a weapon and terrify the American people. It didn't work. Just kind of funny. Kind of sad.

But that's where we're currently at. Now, as for the task force that we have yesterday, they announced the FBI task force to investigate these attacks. I think it's safe to say, finally, we're getting something. The Washington Examiner reported that

The FBI launched task force to investigate recent attacks on Tesla cars and showrooms. The new task force will work with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and Explosives to crack down on the violent attacks. FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi have called the actions domestic terrorism. Indeed, it's exactly what they are, my friends. So we've got these tweets from Kash and it's beyond just this. I already showed you the tweet from Kash Patel. We've got another tweet today in the morning from Dan Bongino.

Today is March 26th, and I didn't swear to waste. I didn't swear in to waste your time and money. If you're committing crimes against children, you should probably expect a knock on your door soon. And it's not for delivery. It's a bad day to be a bad guy. I'm a big Bongino fan. I know I know most of you guys watching are as well. It is an honor and a privilege, my friends, to be represented in law enforcement by this man.

And I'm glad to say that the work of Cash and Dan is restoring my faith in the FBI, of which there was never very much. You know, when I was a kid, I used to watch Sex Files. I'm sure many of you did, too.

And boy, did they make the FBI look so cool, despite the fact that Skinner was always coming down on Mulder and they and he didn't like him. But you know what? They needed this basement division to deal with things they couldn't explain. The FBI did a job. And in movies and TV, you saw the FBI stop the bad guys. But for the past decade, that's not what they've been doing. They've been the bad guys. Dan Bongino, deputy director, Kash Patel, director of the FBI.

This is this guy, Dan Bongino, was honest with you every single day, telling you about what was going on with the problems in this country. And he gave up the biggest live show in the country. I don't want to say the world's I don't know for sure, but the biggest show in the country. Number one, every morning because he wanted to serve the public. Guys, some people have told me I'm wrong about this. Bongino was making millions of dollars. He wanted for nothing. Well, apparently that's not correct.

While we can say he wanted for nothing material, clearly the dude wanted accountability, honor and justice. And so he gave up celebrity and fame to go work in the public sector as a civil servant. That's tremendous, man. You guys got to understand as a deputy FBI director and for cash as well, they can't do press the way they used to.

Because they've got to be in alignment strategically and on message. And there's also regulations and restrictions. So here's a dude who said, if there is one thing I want, it is justice in this country. And that's incredible. I actually have faith that we're going to see things done properly. You know, growing up, we heard stories about wrongful arrests, about corruption. Yo, I think Dan and Cash are men of action, consequence, and honor.

And I'm excited for this. Basically, what I'm trying to say is you go back far enough, five years to these riots, and we got nothing, nothing. I don't think that'll be the case this time around. I think we are going to have Cash and Dan and Pam Bondi start going after the corrupt, the criminals, and they're going to get the job done. Let's talk about a little bit more of where we're at, where we are at in terms of the far left, because I do want to jump into a

We have this story about Mahmoud Khalil. What I want to get into is the reason why I launched this show on the Charlie Kirk's, you know, TPUSA being attacked. It's small scale. I think we often forget the, let's just call it the gradient from the smallest, most granular to the most extreme threats of violence and fear that will be imposed on you by the left. So I showed all those boarded up windows,

Please don't hurt us, they wrote. The person with the Tesla who wrote, we bought this in 2020, please. We stand with you. Israeli hostages' families sue Mahmoud Khalil, Columbia organizers, as alleged Hamas propaganda arm in New York City. Now, I think it's a bit of a stretch, but I bring this up not so much to get into the lawsuit and why they're going after Mahmoud Khalil.

But to explain what we are dealing with, with Trump pulling money from these universities and shutting down the source of funding for all of these things. Educators unions sue Trump administration over revocation of 400 million dollars in funding to Columbia University. And ain't just cash and Dan. Donald Trump pulling funding through USAID and to these universities will put an end to the psychotic behavior.

Those who are on the streets today, you will be arrested. You will be charged. The next generation will never stand a chance. So here's what we have. Mahmoud Khalil, he organized, helped in organizing the Columbia anti-Israel pro-Palestine protests. Now, the Trump admins pulled his green card. He had a two year temporary green card as a conditional green card. And he is now pending a hearing for deportation. He's no longer allowed to stay in this country as a national security threat.

The left says, what crime did he commit? And I've talked with people, even moderates and on the right. And they're like, what crime did he commit? Why is he being deported? And I say, OK, let's try this. When you organize at a university a protest and then you take over buildings, which they did, you're not protesting anymore. That should be a felony. Now they're going to say, well, the First Amendment says we've right now. No, no, no, no, no, no.

The First Amendment means you have a right to show up in the building and have your meeting and they can't arrest you for it. It doesn't mean you can seize by force a building and threaten the staff with violence. So this guy should be charged. They obstructed roads. They obstructed public grounds. You can argue to a certain degree will give great leeway because of the First Amendment. But Jewish students and others were attacked during these things, events. You tell me this.

are pro-Israel individuals showing up on campus grounds, occupying the grounds and physically beating people. It just doesn't happen. By all means, criticize Israel all day. I'm not saying Israel is a saint. Criticize them all day. I'm saying the left, they will threaten you with violence. They will get people to bow whenever they can. And at the higher levels, they will try to put your politicians in prison. And that's what they did with Donald Trump. They went after his lawyers. They

They went after his his advisers and they've been doing it for 10 years, 10 years, just about 10 years. Trump announced his run. I believe it was what, 2015. Maybe it was. Was it was it? When did we come? When did Trump come down the escalator? Trump comes down escalator. When was let's get that date. It's 2015, right? June 16th, 2015. That was the day.

So it has been almost 10 years of lawfare and administrative attacks against Donald Trump, his supporters to prevent him from winning. And he did. And he did. So where are we at today, my friends? There are a lot of stories to cover. I was talking about Assassin's Creed a moment ago. We got that video coming up for you later today. I wish we can go back to a time, what, 13 years ago?

where the only thing we really had to talk about for the most part was, of course, there was war and we were critical of it, but that was the game. And for the most part, we were talking about why video games sucked so much. Walking simulators. Today, it's actually a bit more disconcerting. I do think we're winning.

And my hope is that the current moves that Trump has made show he's serious. He recognizes the threat from the left at the administrative level, from the judges, from the politicians, from the attorneys general, down to the street level violence and everything in between. And he's taking those threats seriously because he has to. Trump is the one who started this. It's been 10 years of nonstop attacks against Trump, against you, against me.

So I hope this is the back end of that. And what we're dealing with now is the cleanup.

We'll see. But I do believe we have a big move. Take a look at this. They're suing Trump, pulling 400 million in funding. He is going after the election system. He is going after their funding. Cash and Dan are going after them on the street levels. This may be the final salvo from the right in terms of this culture war. And we never get to anything hotter than this. And that would be preferable if it ends with criminals going to jail, be it politicians or otherwise. Universities getting defunded.

and a de-escalation across the board. Check this out. Labor unions representing professors and other educators have sued the Trump admin over its revocation of $400 million in congressionally authorized federal research funding to Columbia University following campus protests over the Israel-Hamas war, accusing the administration of leveraging the funds to compel speech restrictions on campus and forcing the school to surrender its academic independence.

This action challenges the Trump administration's unlawful and unprecedented effort to overpower universities, academic autonomy and control the thought association scholarship and expression of its faculty and students. I just like to pause and say you are not entitled to 400 million dollars of our money. So cry more about it.

The lawsuit comes as dozens of colleges and universities face federal investigations for allegedly failing to protect Jewish students during pro-Palestinian demonstrations that disrupted campuses across the country last spring of the war in Gaza, with Columbia University becoming the epicenter of the nationwide demonstrations. The university has repeatedly said it will not tolerate anti-Semitism. Columbia has a fundamental obligation to protect all its students from harassment and discrimination, with special attention to historically marginalized groups, including Jewish students.

It must balance that obligation with another central to its mission. Columbia must create an environment that encourages free speech, dialogue and the exchange of opposing views. The union's lawsuit says defendants actions are not calculated to help Columbia strike the careful balance. Instead, they aimed to grant the federal government control over the content of campus speech and to punish the entire Columbia community because some of its members have expressed views the Trump administration disfavors. I'd like to just stress this is conditional money.

If you want to argue First Amendment, I say this. If you are out speaking of your own volition, no one should arrest you. If you are a university and you have private funds, nobody should force you to change your classes or what your ideals are. If you ask the government for money, I do not believe it unreasonable for the government to say only under certain conditions.

I don't know why they think they're entitled to government funds and the right to do whatever they want with no stipulations. I don't think it's a First Amendment issue. The First Amendment doesn't say the U.S. will make no law establishing issues of laws related to speech, especially when we're giving you free money. You can do whatever you want.

Imagine the First Amendment says, additionally, we will give you hundreds of millions of dollars. Back then it would have been, I guess, a lot less than that. But we'll give you tens of thousands of dollars and you can do whatever you want. Yeah, there's no what are you kidding? Imagine the U.S. government says we got we got 100 million dollars. We want to give somebody we want to. Here we go. We want to build a boat.

And a guy says, I'll take the money. They give him the grant and then he builds a car. They'd be like, bro, we gave you money for building a boat. What's the difference? It's like, well, that's on land. We want one on sea. And then they sue saying you can't take our money away. The money for Colombia is intended for educational expansion. Right. But if they're encouraging, supporting insane ideas that go against the policies of the United States at large, the United States should be able to say no. Depending on the administration. This is the game we play.

I was asked recently, wouldn't I be mad if the next president who got in used the powers that Trump was granted against us? And I'm like, I I would be mad at any president engaging in amoral degeneracy against the population. That is Donald Trump right now telling Columbia no money for you. Good thing. If tomorrow a Democrat got in and went to Columbia and said, no, no, stop doing what you stop doing all the good things and we'll give you money to something else.

Bad thing. It's really that simple. People don't seem to understand that. The federal government, the executive branch, can decide if they want to suspend payments or...

They can decide how to implement congressional legislation. So if Congress says we're going to create a program, $400 million for university, Trump can simply say, great, it'll be paid in pennies. Or we can say we'll disperse it as we see fit because it's not defined by the Congress. Trump chooses how to enforce what Congress implements, meaning he can outright say we will not transfer the money. Nothing you can do. Congress banned pot. Barack Obama said we will not arrest people for pot.

Great that he did. But you get the point. The president can choose not to enforce things. So if tomorrow Columbia decides they're going to drop all of this woke garbage, critical race theory and normalize to sanity, then my friends, I say, OK, fine. Now, actually, I don't know if we should still give him the money, but let's just say I'd be more tolerant of that. If a Democrat got in later and said, no, no, those ideas are bad. So we're suspending your payment. Bad thing.

If Columbia was out promoting people waving American flags, supporting American society, the family meritocracy, I would absolutely love that they receive money, money to expand and expound upon that. That's it.

It's not an issue of what powers the person has. The issue is I want people that I believe are good to do good things when they can. And I want someone to tell the bad people you can't do it. The Democrats feel the exact same way. Christians feel the exact same way. Muslims feel the exact same way. So don't come at me with Trump shouldn't do this because they'll do it next. They would do it anyway. So here we are facing a question. Should Trump pack the Supreme Court? I say do it. But they're like, but.

But, you know, we shouldn't do that because then Democrats will abuse power. Dude, we the argument has always been that we have one Supreme Court justice for each federal district. And right now I think there's 13, but only nine judges. So some judges are assigned to districts.

Back to court. Democrats argued for it. They argued all day and night. Why sit back and wait for them to wage a an amoral degenerate war on you when you can simply say, OK, Democrats, you're right. We'll pack the court. I choose a handful of ultra conservative judges. Not that Trump's picks were perfect. Amy Coney Barrett's been kind of meh, but that shows Trump's fairly moderate.

Here you go. We got Columbia interim president facing angry faculty and Zoom meeting amid impossible situation over Trump admin demands on campus resistance. Good. Donald Trump is taking action at every level. That's the point. Targeting the universities will shut down the cult. There was a really funny poll, my friends, and it pointed out men with no college degree favor Donald Trump massively. White men substantially more.

So it's white men with white men with no college degrees support Trump. White men with a college degree. One point 50 50 white women with no college degree support Donald Trump. White women with a college degree overwhelmingly oppose Donald Trump. So you get it. It's the universities. See, the reason why guys with college degrees are 50 50 is because guys aren't as susceptible to social pressures.

These universities push these ideas and perception is reality. So when you're surrounded all day, every day by this stuff, you are going to live in that world and argue that is a good thing. This country is culturally bifurcated. There are people who believe insane things for insane reasons and their worldview does not work. Multiculturalism does not work. Canada's trying it. Good luck. The UK is trying it. Good luck. Now, back in the day,

The idea of multiculturalism that they tried to push was that you are going to have a Chinatown. Hey, what's wrong with Chinatown? You know, you go to New York. If you want to get fresh fish, if you want to eat good Chinese food. Yo, I'm a big fan of New York's Chinatown because you go to these stores and they got cool toys. They got knickknacks. It's fantastic. But that's not what multiculturalism really is. These these individuals set up Chinatown or in in Chicago. You've got Ukrainian village in Little Italy. And believe it or not, Ukrainian village has been around for a lot longer than Ukrainian war.

You've got Pilsen. You've got Chinatown in Chicago. That's not multiculturalism. That's like people moved here and they move next to their neighbors, but they all abide by American cultural standards. The multiculturalism we are now seeing in places like Dearborn, Michigan, are they've got their own private morality police popping up in the UK, in Canada, in the United States. And as it were private, we place our own community. We're not doing anything illegal. Their judges side with them in how they want law to be interpreted.

Female genital mutilation, it's called, popping up in Michigan. People are fighting each other. One group says your ideas don't conform with my ideas, and they genuinely do not want each other to exist. We have this now nationally with the left and the right. The left seemingly, I just with a lack of ideology, wants kids to read graphic materials that we do not allow. They want to give children sex changes. They've been doing it. The right says no to this.

It's getting to the to the degree where these worldviews are untenable. They can't coexist. The example that I've given is with the end of Roe v. Wade, you have Texas. I'm sorry. You have Oklahoma and Colorado. I believe it's Oklahoma. Let's Oklahoma. I believe it's been a while since we talked about it. Banned abortion completely.

The abortion ban in Oklahoma took effect May 25th, 2022, when Governor Kevin Stitt signed HB 4327 into law and abortion providers ceased offering service services in Oklahoma. In Colorado, it's quite the opposite. Colorado allows unrestricted abortion. Now, here's the thing. Oklahoma and Colorado border each other just a little bit. So the concern that is a woman in Oklahoma decides for some reason or another that

At six months, seven months, she wants to have an abortion. Now, Democrats argue that never happens. It never happens. Well, it does. But let's call it rare. Let's say this is the rarest one time it's ever happened. She can't get an abortion in the state. She argues my husband is abusive. And if I have this child with him, I will be trapped forever with this guy who's going to beat the child, beat me. We can't live this way. I'm fleeing. Now, pro-lifers don't accept that argument. They say absolutely not. There's no reason to kill the child.

So in the middle of the night, she packs some bags, gets in her car and she leaves. The husband wakes up. She's gone. He doesn't know what happened. After a couple hours, he gets a message from her and she says, I can't do this. I am leaving. I will not have this child with you. Now, this guy denies he's ever been abusive in her mind. He's saying, no, she's gone woke. She's claiming that me mocking people and making jokes is abusive and she's lying. She flees to Colorado. She's en route. What do you do?

We've already heard some governors say that they would actually arrest these people. So let's say this woman makes it to very close to the border of Colorado. She wants to go to Colorado and get her abortion because she can. Oklahoma says that's illegal. Does Oklahoma law enforcement stop her and arrest her, detain her or otherwise? No idea. I have no answer for you in that scenario. But that scenario could happen today. It could. I don't know what the possibility of it happening actually is, but it absolutely could.

Those are the kind of situations where you can see neighboring states with ideology so disparate conflict may actually erupt. That guy calls his buddies and says, crying, please, she's going to kill my baby. We've got we can't let her do this. The woman calls her friend saying, please help me. I need to get away from this guy. Now, maybe one person's actually wrong. Maybe one person's actually evil. Pro-lifers would argue the woman's evil for even considering the abortion in the first place.

But what happens? The guy rallies a group of buddies. They drive out full speed to try and track her down. They call the police. The police put on an alert saying a woman is effectively kidnapping an unborn child. The guy says, just let the baby be born premature and I'll take care of it. She says, no, I'm having an abortion. The left says that's OK. It's her rights, her choice. The right says she's going to kill this man's child. She's evil. Colorado says, come on down. It's fine.

If the woman makes it to Colorado, she'll walk into an abortion clinic and they'll say it doesn't matter. No questions asked. We're not allowed for any reason or no reason at all. Does what does Oklahoma do? Let's consider an alternative scenario. The woman gives birth to the child. The child is one day old and she packs her bags in the middle of the night and she takes the child and drives to go to Colorado for a sex change. OK, maybe not a day old. Well, let's say it's a young child that she's determined needs a sex change. Now she's kidnapping. It's a very interesting scenario, isn't it?

When the baby is in the woman's womb, it's not kidnapping. She's allowed to just leave. It's her body. But as soon as the baby is born, it is kidnapping. I made this joke on X and I triggered a lot of pro-lifers. It's funny. They don't seem to understand my X account.

I said, if a woman is pregnant at nine months, she can enter a casino and do whatever she wants. But the next day, if the baby is on the other side of her skin, she can no longer enter the casino because the baby's not old enough. Checkmate pro-lifers. The joke being that they consider the baby like it is kind of funny if you think about it. As long as the baby is inside the body, pregnant women are allowed to walk around a casino or a bar or whatever. But you can't bring a baby into those places because now the baby is outside of the body.

It's kind of funny. I don't think it actually is an argument towards anything. But the point is this. It creates weird conundrums in law. So my point is not to get into the abortion debate, but to point out these bifurcations in worldview are extreme and these states border each other. So what happens as we move forward? I don't got good answers for you. It may just be that these are the roaring 20s, the tumultuous 20s. We'll call it that.

And in the 1820s, there was talk of civil war. Civil war didn't actually happen until 1861. Granted, you had bleeding cancers as well. Maybe as much as we talk about the rising conflict, it's still 40 years before something bad happens. But with that being said, Strauss-Howe generational theory suggests we have about a year or two before real conflict erupts in this country. They say every 80 years. So you get the American Revolution.

80 years later, the Civil War. 80 years later, World Wars I and II. 80 years later, here we are, my friends. What comes next? I don't know. Smash the like button, though. Share the show with everyone you know. Become a member of Rumble Premium to watch the Green Room podcast.

Huron X Bearcat says my disabled veteran friend just lost his service dog and needs help with vet bills. Every little bit helps. He's got to give send go GF seven B three. Best of luck.

I also want to stress, too, shout out to Mug Club, Stephen Crowder, for boosting my morning show. I really do appreciate it. Russell Brand, I believe, is next on Rumble.com. So we will be sending you his way when he does pop up. When he does, I believe it'll be Russell Brand. But in the meantime, we've got you for a few more minutes. We're going to grab a few more of these Rumble rants.

Arsonist YT says, the reason behind these terrorists isn't to stop Elon. It's to shift the vote to the left. And it will work on the normies just like 2020. We need the DOJ and a strong campaign against it. I'm not so sure I'm convinced. I'm not so sure. The actions of the far left are terrifying regular people. They don't want to live this way. Yo, they were cheering. The left was cheering Elon. They were cheering for Elon. I was going to say they were cheering Elon on several years ago. Green vehicles, man.

Now they're threatening terror. So if you were a regular working class liberal Joe and you bought a Tesla, now they're threatening to burn your car and shoot at you and smash your car and attack you. Do you want to live that way? Arsonist goes on to say, Tim, I know you're just reading the news, but we can lose easily if people don't show up due to overconfidence. Please go out and vote no matter what. One win isn't enough. Indeed. Indeed.

And a social news says, Tim, I love you, but I was trying to finish Mug Club and it literally shoved me in here. I've tried four times. Please tell Rumble about this glitch. It shoved you in. Well, I'm not sure. I think the it's not supposed. So the way it works for Steven is that he's got his premium show for the Mug Club members.

It's supposed to only move over free viewers. So it's supposed to be like a regular hourly lineup. So every hour it shifts. So in three minutes, you guys will jump to go watch Russell Brand. We're treating it like a hybrid of network and internet. And I think that's the right move. So you've got a combination of core viewers who are going to watch your show no matter what. And then you've got your network viewers who watch the whole lineup in the morning. And I think it's empowering each and every creator. We're expanding our reach beyond these spheres. So for instance...

My morning show was getting between 20 and the highest we was 35,000 on YouTube. 20 was about average. Right now we have 61,000. So that's the network effect. Rumble as a network is more powerful than an individual creator trying to create their own channel. But that's always been the case. That's why there are networks.

So the Rumble lineup has helped expand the reach, but it's largely about you guys choosing to watch the Rumble lineup, which empowers us and you guys in turn and makes Rumble the number one spot for live shows in the country. Out of all the live platforms, you got Twitch, you got Kick, you've got YouTube. Rumble owns the space. Rumble owns live. It's amazing what y'all have built this community. So I will say in response to that argument about we could lose if people don't pay attention,

Go to TimCast.com, click join us, and get in our Discord community. It's beyond just, look, here's the way I put it. Don't just be a passive observer of the news. That's fine if you are. I respect it. A lot of people don't watch the news at all. But I say be a participant in the culture war.

Join in. Have your thoughts heard. If every single person who felt the way we did was active and spoke up every day, we'd never lose again because we know woke is broke. We know people didn't want to buy woke Bud Light. But how is it that in the institutions in the mainstream, we don't see this this this massive outpouring of support? It's because many people are passive observers. And again, that's fine. It's better than nothing. That's why we won in 2024. But we got midterm coming up.

I know it's crazy. The cycle is just never ending this point. Join our Discord server at TimCast.com. There's 20,000 plus individuals. There's fitness chat rooms. There's dedicated content creation and partnership. Maybe you've got an idea. Maybe you wrote a song and you're like, this song's massive. And I know that the message in it will reach the people just like Oliver Anthony did. But you don't know how to get started. Find that community. That's why we built it. So you can come in and say, hey, guys, here's a song. Guess what? People are chatting with you. They're going to say, OK, I'll check it out.

Maybe you're like, I'm trying to lose weight, but I don't know how. Bro, there's a fitness chat room. More importantly, the founding fathers fomented revolution by gathering at pubs and bars. We need to bring back those connections because culture is breaking apart in this country. My friends, I prepare you now to raid the quartering. I'm sorry, not the quartering. He was before. Now we're now we're going to be jumping to Russell Brand. So I'm going to get that queued up for you guys.

I believe Russell is set to go. Is it not Russell? Oh, he's live right now. Russell is live. So we are going to send you guys to go join Russell Brand. I'm a big fan. He's such a good dude. I have tremendous respect for him. I appreciate all of you guys watching. So make sure you follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast. We're live here every Monday through Thursday at noon Fridays. We're actually live at 11. We do the culture war podcast, but the schedule is in flux. What

What we're going to be doing with the culture war moving on is we're going to find a new date for it. And it's going to include you guys as members of our discord community to join us on stage and actually debate us. That's right.

So if you're in that community, you will get notifications that we are going live on the culture war. It's going to be Saturday nights where we will have the table set up on stage. About 40 people in the audience, a handful of the members get to join us and join the debate with prominent individuals because it's not all about just us. It's not all about prominent individuals. It's about getting your ideas out there as well. So my friends go watch Russell Brand's show right now. The link I just pinned with the rate is is on.

Thank you so much for hanging out. And yeah, smash the like button. Share the show. We'll be back tomorrow at noon. We'll be back tonight at 8 p.m. at Timcast IRL. And we'll see you all then. It's the scandal of the of the week. It's not even the biggest scandal that's rocked the Trump administration in its first two months. But it's a scandal, I guess. The story is that Mike Waltz accidentally added a journalist to their signal chat.

on their strike plans for Yemen. And I'm just sitting here being like, why are they so obsessed over this? Honest question. We can assume it was a blunder. Part of me still thinks that this was probably a PR stunt and that they wanted to shift the narrative in the press cycle related to deportations. And they wanted to be able to espouse a specific key message on why they were striking the Houthis in Yemen. And they were able to do that. You

The only thing that I'm seeing is stories about these hearings, calls for Pete Hegseth to resign. And I'm like, okay, wait, hold on. What exactly was leaked in these messages? There's only one thing in this whole group chat that actually looks like it might be worrying, but it's not even that worrying. And it's Pete Hegseth saying F-18 strike. Then at this time, we're going to do this. At this time, we're going to do this. And I'm just sitting there thinking like,

Maybe they wanted the guy to know. I don't know why it's a big deal. I mean, I suppose the argument is, though, they're certainly hamming up like it's the worst thing in the world. Fine. But it's nothing on Afghanistan and Joe Biden. Now, the one there is one thing I would say personally, the revelation that there are signal chats set to disappear after one week that I call shenanigans on. Why isn't anybody bringing that up?

How come that's not in the hearings? That's at the headlines. The real headline here is the Trump administration is discussing strikes on a foreign country and they're having the messages disappear after a week. That should be in the public record. Even still, I ain't even that stressed about it. But this is it. You know, I have to describe morals versus principles. And there is a reality that I think most people realize when your side oversteps the

You you forgive it because you have faith in what they're doing in the bigger picture. And when your opponents overstep, you don't. But usually it's because it's in relation to what aligns with your morals, not the idea of principles, because, well, principles can be applied in multiple directions. Right. You can say a free speech, but then you want some things banned. People on the right say porn. People left say hate speech. So is it really free speech? Well, yes, because my freaks mean I get it.

So I was thinking about this and I kind of wonder, first, it's not that big a deal, to be completely honest. I know the left is going to say, how could you, Tim? If it was Joe Biden, you'd be losing your mind. You'd be apoplectic. And I'm like, no, like a little bit, maybe. But a journalist being told about plans is normal. That's what I don't get.

The military's administrations routinely loop journalists in on what they're doing. So when they're like, we accidentally did this time, too, I'm like, OK, now I suppose the argument is fair. What if they accidentally someone else in, you know, a rebel or the Taliban? I mean, what if what if what if what if Trump has done a banana peel?

There's a lot of what ifs. So, OK, right. We're glad that's the case. But a journalist getting access to information from the government, isn't that what journalists should be excited about? The funny thing is, I got to be honest, guys, I don't I the Trump administration's playing this one all wrong. If I was in the Trump admin and Jeffrey Goldberg said they accidentally sent me their war plans, I'd respond with, no, we intentionally sent him our war plans. What do you mean, Jeffrey? But here we are.

They've actually published the full messages. I'm going to show you what was said. And you're going to be disappointed. You're going to you're going to be like, OK, I guess. Now, to be fair, if you hate Donald Trump, then you're going to be reposting this and spam blasting it because any banana peel or implied banana peel is good.

Donald Trump gets asked about this and he says, I'm hearing it for the first time. I don't know what you're talking about. He then said, I'm not going to fire Mike Waltz. Guys, it's they they they accidentally told a journalist. That's the story. I actually am not even convinced it was accidental. And I think that's what they should have led with. They should have. It wasn't an accident. We were relaying to the editor in chief of a large publication our intentions. We wanted them to be privy to this information and we expected them to maintain confidentiality.

That's what I said. That's just me, though. And then Jeffrey Goldberg would look like a moron. He'd be like, wait, it wasn't an accident. No, it wasn't an accident. Why do you think we have your phone number? We were we were informing a journalist that the story we do this stuff all the time. I mean, seriously, I have sources. I've talked to sources and they'll say, hey, we're working on this thing. I've talked. I'm not going to get into great detail, but I've talked with prominent executives of various government institutions.

And they said, here's what we're looking at, you know, potentially doing. This is not for publication just yet. Take a look at the embargo that just happened at the White House when they brought all the influencers in and said, here are the Epstein documents, but don't post about it until after three o'clock. That's normal. So if they were to be like, Jeffrey, we're looping you in on this one because you want you to we want you to be aware of our communications, you know, whatever they could have come out and said, OK.

Honestly, the only mistake I guess we made is we assumed Jeffrey Goldberg would have understood that we were trying to relay this information to him because there's nothing in it. Guys, there's only like one message and it's not even that big a deal. It was sent only a couple hours before the strikes to a journalist. Now, the funny thing is they're calling for Hegseth and Waltz to resign. And I'm going to, you know, I like to browse, as I mentioned, leftist subreddits and watch their channels and see what they're on about. And they're all blaming Pete Hegseth for it.

I don't I why why are you blaming Hegseth for it? Now, you can you can argue the buck stops with the leadership. But Pete Hegseth didn't make the group chat. Mike Waltz did. So let me let me let me let me stop wasting time. Let me scroll down. Here's the story. Here's the funny thing, too. Here are the attack plans that Trump's advisers shared on Signal.

That was war plans. We play in semantic games. The Trump administration is coming out and saying the Atlantic has conceded these were not war plans. The entire story was another hoax written by a Trump hater who is well known for a sensationalist spin. This whole story reeks to me, to be completely honest, because I don't understand how anyone is playing this game. Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor in chief of The Atlantic, got access to information from the Trump administration on a military strike.

If they had reached out to Jeffrey Goldberg and said, you know, hey, look, we're about to engage in military operation. We want to loop you in. You're from a large publication. We put an embargo on this one. Please do not give out any of this information, though it's not top secret or classified. This is why we're sharing it with you. We do think it's important that the press have access to how we make these decisions. That would have been normal. And they would be like, OK, well, here we are. They say.

So about that signal chat on Monday, shortly after we published a story about a massive Trump administration security breach, a reporter asked the secretary of defense, Pete Hegseth, why he had shared plans about a forthcoming attack on Yemen on a signal messaging app. He answered nobody was texting war plans. And that's all I have to say about that. OK, so.

Nobody was texting war plans. These are attack plans. But to be fair, now we're getting to semantics. When Caroline Levitt says they're not war plans, the implication she's making is that that there was a thread talking about long, like long scale stuff like today we do this, tomorrow we do this. In response, we do this. War plans in that context implies going beyond a single strike. I guess you can call this limited warfare.

I'm not a fan of that argument. I get what he's trying to say, and I'm not going to play semantic BS. OK, maybe he's hamming it up by saying war plans. It was a single attack on Houthi rebels. I am not a fan of the United States engaging in these extra judicial actions, mind you. So we can criticize that. Hey, you want to play that game? This is the other annoying thing. Why can't I sit here and be like, guys, let's talk about why we shouldn't have bombed the Houthis in Yemen?

To be fair, it's actually part of their thread. I do want to mention one other thing. You know what we're not talking about anymore? Deportations. We're not talking about Trende Aragua and the airplanes. One thing I would say, I want to try and be neutral on this one. This may be simply a story of the Trump administration fumbled and bumbled. This guy shouldn't have had access. Oopsie. Someone's going to be in trouble. It may be. I don't know how likely they intentionally looped this guy in.

Because they they wanted this to be the narrative. They wanted him to publish what they were saying, whether by manipulating him or actually inviting him in and then forgetting they did and saying, oops, maybe Mike Waltz was like, let's bring in Goldberg and let him share stuff. He forgot to mention it. Who knows? Either or either war. But I do want to mention a slimmer possibility because I don't think everything's always 5D chess or whatever.

But Trump is notorious for shifting the news cycle when something is unfavorable to him.

You've got these court hearings where the judges are claiming Trump can't be doing these things with immigration. What does Trump care about more than anything? Deportation, securing the border. He stripped 530,000 legal, legal residents of their status. Now, let's be fair. Biden granted these people legal status. Trump is revoking it. They were individuals that were told they could have come to the United States with a sponsor. They did. They didn't enter illegally. Trump has revoked their temporary status.

Now, that is a bold move. And Donald Trump cares more about that than anything else. I mean, take it from the left. They call him a white nationalist who wants to, you know, create a white nation or something. I don't know, whatever. So does this really matter all that much to Donald Trump? The Yemen strikes? No, it's not even a part of his message. Donald Trump said in an interview with me, we don't need to be bombing Yemen. We shouldn't be doing it. It's wild that interview is flying around like crazy right now. So I kind of wonder about this. I don't I don't think these people are.

Well, look, sometimes people are stupid and people are people. So when you see these texts, it might just be like, OK, you know, look, these are regular people sending text messages. They're doing dumb things. Or I'm kind of wondering, is there a strategy behind this? Because it's not that complicated. So we've done I've talked about this. Excuse me. My throat's all messed up. We've done a strategy called call that that is called coloring the water. I've explained it a million times to you guys.

If you have three glasses on a table and there's water underneath all of them, you don't know which glass is leaking. You put a different color dye in each glass. So when I see things like this, I'm like, are these people stupider than me? Maybe they are. Or are they doing a basic PR manipulation strategy? Because it does seem kind of basic if it really is. But again, I'm not saying that it is. I don't know. Maybe these guys are just fumbling, bumbling morons. But I want to stress right now, the only thing in these messages. Okay, so this signal chat we have right here.

They say, these are the attack plans. You can see all these individuals name dropping saying, here's who I am. There's nothing in it. There's, there's literally nothing here. It's, it's, I wouldn't call it necessarily a fabricated scandal or anything, but it's

It's a it's a it's a hammed up scandal. There's nothing here. It makes me wonder if the real strategy was they knew this would force the media cycle away from what Trump is actually trying to do. Democrats have argued Trump does this all the time. So I'm simply asking the liberals and Democrats to consider their own their own arguments in this regard. So Michael Waltz says.

Team, you should have a statement of conclusions with taskings for the president's guidance this morning in your high side inboxes. State and DOD have developed suggested notifications list, blah, blah, blah. There's nothing really here. We saw this already. He says, look, I think we're making a mistake. As J.D. Vance, 3% of U.S. trade runs through the Suez, 40% of European trade does. There is a real risk to the that the public doesn't understand this or why it's necessary. Notice he's basically saying we need the public to understand why we're doing the things we're doing.

And then he immediately says the strongest reason is, as the poet has said, to send a message. But I'm not sure the president is aware of how inconsistent this is with his message on Europe right now. I got to be honest. This statement from J.D. Vance reads like it was scripted by a PR guy and said, we want this to be the narrative. The vice president is reluctant. Trump, you know, the Trump administration didn't really want to engage in these strikes, but we felt like we had no choice and we're bailing out Europe and Europe's going to owe us for this one. That sounds like

They would if they wanted to put out a press release. The problem is the corporate press would never pick it up. So all of this to me looks like are they pulling a fast one in the media to distract from Trump's border plans and deportation plans, which are actually worrying if there if there are people who are being arrested and they're wrongly accused of being trend. That's worrying, though. People got to understand due process, the process you are due.

Okay, are you a citizen? No, I'm not. Okay, well then we're going to deport you. That's due process. If someone says, yes, I am. Prove it. I can't. Well, we need to have a hearing or you've got to figure this one out. How do you prove you're a citizen? So due process is happening there. But there are questions. This is nothing. So Pete Hegseth says, I agree with your concerns. We talked about this yesterday. And let's get to the actual numbers they drop. The actual time. So Hegseth says...

This is the only thing that I would consider to be on the line. The Trump administration can argue this is not classified if they so choose, and there's no reason for anybody to be upset about it. He said 1144 Eastern weather is favorable. Just confirmed with CENTCOM we are go for mission. 1215 F-18 F-18s launched. 1345 trigger based F-18 first strike window starts. 1410 more F-18s launch. 1415 F-18s.

Strike drones on target. This is when the first bombs will definitely drop. 1536, F-18 second strike starts. Also, first sea base more to follow. We are currently clean on operational security. Godspeed to our warriors. J.D. Vance says, I will say a prayer for our victory. So this post, you can see, okay, we can hit the time on this one. 946, Pete Hex had said he agreed. Next up, we get a message, but it just says 19 minutes.

J.D. Vance at 1213 says, I will say a prayer for victory. So the presumption is if at the time of the screenshot, this was I guess he screenshotted this 19 minutes after he said it. This was right just before the strike was to happen. So was there a concern that Jeffrey Goldberg would leak this timeline right here? Because this is interesting. This timeline is interesting.

You could argue, come on, dude, that's clearly secret or classified otherwise, because if this timeline was given to the Houthis, they'd have got their targets out. The concern, of course, and that's legitimate, is if they accidentally included someone else on this thread. OK, it's not the biggest story in the world. It's an almost story. This right here is the big story. Michael Waltz set disappearing message time to four weeks. Additionally, how is he screenshotting this? Signal should be warning you about it.

And then you want to mention the building collapsed. Multiple positive ID. The first target missile guy was hit. Michael Waltz posting fist American flag fire. Guys, I will stress. You got to understand that people are people. Okay. People are people. You'd think that at the highest levels of government, there's something special going on. There ain't. It just really isn't. It's regular people sending regular messages. And that's how they discuss things. When you watch this stuff, because I've been...

You know, I've been given government access on various projects around the world. You know, government. There have been instances like when the police let you win, I'm saying, and they tell you, here's what's going to happen. Here's what you're going to do. So let me just put it this way. If this was it's one of several scenarios, right? It would appear right now that the official narrative from the Trump administration and from Democrats is that this was an accident. It shouldn't have happened. It's embarrassing, but it's not that big a deal. I'm actually fine with that.

You know, I'm going to hear from the liberals where they're like, yeah, Joe Biden did something like this. I don't know. I got us. Honestly, I don't know, because these these are Democrat aligned journalists. If you told me that that Democrats were being here's here's here it is. OK, if you came to me and said Democrats are looping in the corporate press on their military plans, I'd be like, OK, yes, I understand. Can I just what's the guy's name from NBC? Is that Richard Engel? Is that his name?

I think this guy, yeah, Richard Engel, NBC News guy. This guy's been on the ground in military operations. He's been on the ground. Do you think that when a journalist is embedded with the military, that journalist doesn't have privy information to the actions the military is going to take? Of course he does. Within a couple hours, of course he does. So I'm wondering if the real issue is that Michael Waltz did want Goldberg in this. Probably not. That's why I'm like,

I don't know how much I actually care about this story. Look, let's just bottom line this. It doesn't matter. A journalist was given access to information. Okay, it doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is why are their messages disappearing? These should stay in the public record. They should be recorded. And I have concern that the administration doing this with other conversations don't like it. The only other concern is if it is an accident, could they have accidentally put somebody else in? Fine. Didn't happen. It's a nothing burger. That's it. I don't even want to talk about it to be completely honest, but it's like,

The scandal dominating the news cycle. So here we find ourselves. Final thoughts, I suppose. The only thing that matters is Hegseth's timeline for the strikes. So the question now is with the publication of this message, there's going to be more hearings. Was this the actual timeline? Guys, I would not be surprised if they come out and they say no. Was the message sent by Pete Hegseth the actual timeline for strikes? No, it wasn't.

If that happens, I wouldn't be surprised. Although, to be honest, I think they're more likely going to say that is the timeline and it's not classified. It's so so I'll explain why. With with launches like this, you foreign countries can easily track these these ships going up. Have you guys ever said ever seen the movie The Sum of All Fears? I mean, this goes back to like what, 2000 foreign adversaries know exactly when we launch aircraft, right?

So if they say it's not classified, it's like, right. What do we seriously think the Houthis can respond this rapidly? Not you said it to Goldberg. You said to whoever. And we're not super concerned about it. That being said, I do think there is a fair argument. And there's no way they would have published this on Twitter. And if Goldberg did decide, I'm going to publish this all right now, you've got a you've got a problem.

I would additionally add, if they accidentally looped in any anti-war personality, they'd publish it immediately and say, warning, I was accidentally looped in on the signal chat. They're planning to strike Yemen. This is wrong. Stop, stop, stop. So let's just say this. Operating from the assumption, it's true. They accidentally looped Goldberg in. Okay. Why should Pete Exeth resign? Pete Exeth didn't do it. Why should Mike Waltz resign? It's a journalist.

The argument we're going to make is, I suppose, the probabilistic versus the deontological. I suppose the question being, if someone could make a mistake like this, can they make it again? And would it be more dangerous? Should we fire him for this reason or say it wasn't that bad? So take a look at a person who's driving. You got a guy who's driving his car.

And he gets distracted by a text message. And then he swerves, narrowly missing an old lady, and then keeps driving. In that circumstance, you'd say, I can't believe someone made a mistake like this. But nobody got hurt. In that scenario, nobody notices anything. Those stories never make it anywhere. The guy narrowly averted a major mistake. He'll regret it. He'll put his phone down, say, holy crap. He's not going to get pulled over. No one's going to find out. Let's say he actually hits the lady.

He's going to go to prison. He's going to get some very serious charge. They're going to say you were negligent. You were using your phone. You can't use your phone while you're driving. You killed this old lady. You're going to jail. That's what I look at here. And so I'm not saying what we should or shouldn't. I'm asking you what you think. You can comment below. In this regard, we can argue that the dude accidentally swerved, almost hit somebody. Everything worked out fine. Are we just going to be like, OK, the response now, I guess, is Mike Waltz. Don't do it again.

But the reality is there's not much here. And I don't know why they want us to talk about it. I'll wrap it up there, my friend. Smash that like button. Share the show with everyone you know. Follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast. Thanks for hanging out. And we'll see you all in the next segment.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you a wartime president. I know you've heard me say it a million times by now, but it doesn't mean we're an active kinetic conflict. But Donald Trump is pulling out all the stops. And I suppose we're left with a moral conundrum. Seriously, Donald Trump not only is deporting basically anybody he can. They don't need strong reasons. If you are here illegally, they can just deport you.

But there's also a narrative game at play. The left is saying these people are innocent asylum seekers and the Trump administration saying, no, they're gang members. And I'm sitting here being like, I don't care who they are. If they came to this country illegally, they get supported. The issue, I suppose, is Trump sending them to El Salvador in Supermax. The argument, I suppose, is that he's trying to send a message. You come here illegally and you will suffer.

I'm not a fan of that making an example of people stuff. But that being said, Donald Trump is not going to let four years of Joe Biden's government destroy the economy for working people. And now we're starting to see prices come down. What is anyone going to say to that? It's tough. But this move by Trump with the executive orders about citizenship and voting is not so much about actually having you be a citizen, because think about it.

If you go to register to vote, what do you do? Show an ID, show a birth certificate. Seems kind of convoluted. You're registered to vote. You need proof of citizenship. OK, all right. There's no real concern about non-citizens voting. I know the right and the conservatives like to say, oh, man, you know, illegal immigrants vote. No, they don't. Sorry, guys. They do not. Sometimes I get it. It's not absolute. Sometimes there's a story about a woman in Texas. She voted and she was a permanent resident green card holder. She got arrested.

The real issue is that non-citizens add to the electoral vote count. So when California brings in five million illegal immigrants or whatever number and they can spread them out once they enter California, they refuse to deport. They can then have these people go to any other state they want. These individuals create congressional seats.

Congressional seats also it also creates an electoral vote count, meaning they don't vote directly, but they give more power to a blue jurisdiction to vote for a Democrat. Donald Trump's move on citizenship will do several things. It's not just about stopping illegal immigrants from voting because they don't. Like I said, rarely, sometimes they do. It's about making sure you don't get double votes.

One thing that we've seen recently, and this is a problem the founding fathers probably did not expect when they said the states will handle their own elections, is that sometimes people vote twice, either fraudulently, intentionally or unbeknownst to them. In 2020, for instance, and I will pause and recommend all Democrats that are freaking out about Donald Trump winning. Why don't you take a look into this? Let's say there's a guy named Bob Smith and he lives in Nebraska, used to live in Illinois.

He was registered in Illinois. He moved to Nebraska. He re-registers. States handle their own elections. So no one in Nebraska is asking Illinois for a list of who voted so they can compare those names. But investigators started doing it. And what did they find? Strangely, there are several people with the same names and addresses voting in different states. That would imply they're voting twice, sometimes probably more. Requiring citizenship.

For registration, like it harder for fraudulent and actors and ne'er-do-wells to register people in other places where they don't live. This is just phase one. But of course, Trump is still fighting the bureaucratic state. You've got a bunch of D.C. judges that are seemingly blocking every single thing Trump does. Now, my friends, for the love of all that is holy right now, the big news story is that

But the national security advisor or whatever accidentally added a journalist to a chat and they had some vagaries about at this time where he has a plane to strike someone somewhere. And the left is apoplectic. The Democrats are losing their minds, banging on the tables. And I'm like, guys, Democrats, you're the ones who argue that Donald Trump launches fake scandals to distract from his real plays. Now, I suppose there'll be a lot of people being like, Tim, stop.

Don't expose exactly what Trump's plans are. I don't know what Trump's plans are, but can we point out that yesterday Donald Trump signed an EO saying you have to have proof of citizenship to vote and the Democrats are only talking about a text message. Yo, I can't even with these people.

A text. There's nothing in it. And they're hamming it up saying it's the worst thing imaginable. Meanwhile, Donald Trump just signed an EO saying you got to be a citizen to vote. This is Trump's major move. And while he's dangling keys in his left hand, he's smacking you with his right. And these Democrats are too stupid to realize it. Whatever, man. Look.

I'm not here to play these stupid influence games where I'm going to be like, better not talk about it because then it might hurt Donald Trump. I'm going to tell you what I think is going on. And what I think is going on is first, there's a large probability that, yeah, homie just accidentally added Goldberg to a signal chat. Seems kind of weird considering there's not much in the signal chats. So even if it was an accident, who cares? You know, that should be a blip on the radar where you're like, guys, seriously? Yeah, don't do it again. Meanwhile, this is one of the biggest moves ever.

Democrats are so predictable. I think there is a decent probability Donald Trump sitting around his homies and he's like, we need. OK, I'll tell you this. I bet one of the first things that Donald Trump was doing when he gets into office is he says, how can we make it so that you have to be a citizen to vote? We tried doing the citizenship question on the census and we got blocked by a judge. OK, let's sign an executive order mandating this in federal elections. This may not be constitutional.

The executive can only instruct on how things should be enforced after Congress passes a law. So the Trump team says, OK, if we do this, we have limited powers to implement this. We are going to get sued. The courts will block it. What do we do? Trump does what Trump always does. He says, can we get a scandal of some sort? So the media is wrapped up in and ignoring this.

So this story drops and you'd think this would be the biggest news among Democrats. You'd think they'd be bashing their faces in the wall, screaming at the top of their lungs that Donald Trump is making this move. In California, they actually made it illegal to request that I.D. when you vote. Any sane person knows this is insane that.

If you want to go to the movies, you need an I.D. If you want to go to a casino, you need and funny enough, I go to bars and it's like we will card you if you look like you're under 40 at the local casino. It says under 40. We're carding you. And it's like, so, you know, I look like I'm 30. Doesn't matter because you can't be 21. You can't be under 21 to come in here. You need an I.D. for literally everything except voting. This is Democrats major position for shenanigans.

And Donald Trump just smacked it with aluminum baseball bat and they don't care. How could they be so stupid, you ask? Because they've fallen into the classic blunder. They chased after Trump's stupid social media scandal instead of addressing what Trump is actually doing as a major move. Who cares about the bombing in Yemen?

Now, hold on. I care. I think it's a stupid move. I don't want to bail out Europe either. I asked Trump this in an interview. Why are we bombing Yemen? I got problems with Obama did it. Well, the Saudis cut us deals. They want the trade to go through here because Europe is making massive moves. We want this done. We're going to bail them out. Blah, blah, blah. Look, I get it. I don't like the Houthis firing on cargo ships. OK, but

But the argument they made is we're the only ones who can do it. So I care a little bit. But in terms of American domestic policy and what matters right now for making sure that we win, this is Donald Trump making a massive move, a massive, massive move. And the Democrats.

Nowhere. So you know what happens when they're not paying attention to moves like this? They're not filing lawsuits. They're not fundraising. That's the important play. Trump goes after their resources with USAID, funneling money to these NGOs, guts it. Now that that money is in turmoil, some judges are trying to block and reignite it. Trump has put the kibosh on that. And now we don't know if they're going to get their money. Then after he makes it difficult for them to file their lawsuits, he wants to make this move.

I don't know if this is 5D chess, my friends, but you think that when Donald Trump was planning to get in office, he didn't have a plan for how he was going to address elections? Here's a story from NPR. President Trump has signed a new executive order that would require prospective voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. The order sweeping changes test the powers of Trump's presidential authority. Voting rights advocates worry the new provisions could block millions of Americans from voting if enacted and say Trump lacks the legal authority to make some changes.

The order claims the U.S. fails to enforce basic and necessary election protections. So there is an argument Trump is making. Standard election security is the purview of the executive branch. So he's saying you have to have this proof because security. He's challenging the system, saying isn't only citizens are allowed to vote. Sure. OK, well, then we need to make sure we have the proper security. Take a look at this from Slate. They start going after who Trump is deporting. But this does not matter.

Welcome to wartime presidencies, my friend. They're going to mention that after the Trump administration rounded up hundreds of Venezuelan migrants around the country without notice or court hearings and sent them off to a prison in El Salvador, we're finally getting details on who was deported and why. And the more we learn, the more obvious it becomes why the government is so eager to expel these individuals without any semblance of due process. Claims these men are terrorists by virtue of their alleged membership in the Trenada-Iragua gang, but evidence of this affiliation is weak to the point of non-existence. Let me just slow down.

Consider jurors, jurors say race, but it was one victim of the deportations. Let's stop right there. If you're under the country illegally, you get deported. Thank you. Have a nice day. What does due process mean? Due process. OK, have you ever stopped to consider this? There is a process you are due to receive. That means there will be legal hearings where warranted.

There will be evidentiary hearings where warranted. It means we will make sure we do everything by the book. According to precedent 1948, the Alien Enemies Act requires no judicial review. And so for Jersey Race Barrios, a victim of deportations. Are you kidding me? He's being sentenced. A professional soccer player fled Venezuela after protesting Nicolas Maduro. They say that he had his hands in a certain way. He had a tattoo. OK, maybe he's not in Trendy, Aragua. Probable.

I don't want to see people being sent to supermax prisons so Trump can make an example of them. But I know why he's doing it. He's basically saying you're next and you will suffer if you try. And this is the this is the strong man game. And this is what you get when a country is being abused and facing an existential crisis. Donald Trump is not violating the rights of these individuals. It just is kind of brutal. These individuals are getting due process. And the due process for an illegal immigrant who illegally entered the country is simple.

Are you a citizen? No, you're being deported. Goodbye. That's due process. Now, to be fair, it's a little bit more than that. The individual will be known in a database as a non-citizen. They will have done an investigation. Typically, they will get, depending on the person, some warrants from judges to enter properties and things like this. But typically, they have the information on the individual already. The only concern I have is prove to us you are not roping in American citizens. That's the concern.

But if this guy is not a citizen, thank you and have a nice day. You do not get to illegally enter the United States and then claim asylum. You are still in violation of the law, as Tom Homan points out in that famous video with AOC. So, my friends, it's actually really simple. The left is playing this game. Their perspective is this person who broke the law to come here, who they know is not a citizen, is supposed to get some kind of hearing. For what reason?

What would the purpose of a court hearing for that individual be? Honest question. Honestly, they'd argue, I am not a member of Trendy Aragua. And then the federal government says, you're you're that's OK. Who cares? We're deporting you because you're not a citizen. Oh, are you a citizen? No. OK, what court hearing is needed then? Now, the real men about Mahmoud Khalil, this professor and some other students that are being deported. But this is the purview of the State Department. They said Mahmoud Khalil lied in his immigration forms. They're having a hearing about it.

When it comes to these individuals who had visas or green cards, they're getting their hearings. So the Democrats are upset that Trump is a brutal guy. You know, look, man, I feel bad for a gay hairdresser or a soccer player who ends up in Supermax. But you know what I got to say? The American people voted for Trump for this reason. You violated our laws to to steal from us, spit in our faces and exploit our goodwill. And Trump is punishing you now. I don't like the Supermax thing. Trendy Aragua, I get it.

But if they're roping in people who are not trying to iraq, we got ourselves an issue. The only the only issue there is it's not a legal one. The issue is it's kind of brutal. Well, Trump's going to be a brutal guy. Now he's revoking five hundred and thirty thousand. I believe the number legal status for migrants brought in under the Biden era sponsorship process known as CHNV. Now, these people should be peacefully and calmly deported. They did not break any laws. So I don't tolerate that. I will criticize the Trump government.

If he's abusing these individuals, Biden made promises to them. They came here legally, though we don't like what Biden did. Trump's revoking that as his authority as the president. I say, OK, I feel bad for people who came here legally and are getting kicked out. But this is what the American people voted for. Trump is showing he ain't playing games. So I will say it one more time. I'm going to wrap this one up.

They're actually talking about some text messages when Trump just made one of the biggest moves of the past 40, 50 years in terms of elections. This is a bombshell. And the Democrats are sitting there going, oh, Pete Hegseth. OK, I guess I guess by all means, you're allowed to say there's a bigger story. Fine. Then I'm going to sit back as there's no opposition to Trump's moves here. Smash the like button. Share the show with everyone. You know, my friends, stay tuned. We got more segments coming up and we'll see you all in a bit.

So this video is wild. This lady is talking about how she needs a brain scan. She needs an MRI because she might have a brain tumor. But in Canada, you see, this is the beauty of the free health care that they're arguing for. You

You see, if we ever get to this point in the United States where we have free health care, what it really means is wait in line like everybody else for years and slowly die. Rich people will still be able to find a way to get health care because they're not going to die. They'll fly to Mexico. They'll fly to Japan if they have to. But the poor people will be left waiting. So our system ain't all that great, to be fair. But yo, check this video out and tell me that you want to live like the Canadians do.

today on how fucked is canadian health care i need an mri to see if i have a fucking brain tumor and go ahead guess when it is go ahead guess it's in 2026 2026 my mri to see if i have a brain tumor is in 2026 it's

It's March 2025 right now and if you thought this was bad, it's actually worse than you thought because the appointment where we decided that I need this MRI was in December of last year. So it's not like it's 10 months from now, it's 13 months. It's a 13 month wait to see if I have a brain tumor. At first I just thought this was a mistake because having an MRI every year is like a monitoring timeline. Like I already have an MRI every year for my spine tumor which is why we think maybe I have a brain tumor too.

So I was like, "Okay, they just made a mistake and scheduled this on a monitoring timeline." But no! I called and the clinic was like, "Yeah, the doctor actually requested that you have it earlier, but this is the next spot we have." We're seeing about 13 months for these brain and spine MRIs. Wow! Cool.

Cool, cool, cool. Canada, where health care is free, but only if you can afford to wait. Yup, that's Canada, my friends. And you've got Bernie Sanders. You've got AOC arguing that there should be no private health care in the United States. No joke. Bernie's made this his position. He's repeatedly said it. But guess what? Every country that has some kind of socialized health care system, they have private health care on top.

The stories I've heard coming out of Canada are nightmarish. And this is just one. This video is getting massive viewership, 8 million views. You know, my friends. So I just I have a story for you guys from someone that I knew and they were married in Canada and their spouse in Canada could only get treatment, whereas the United States had a cure.

You know, it's really funny, though. It kind of feels like if you want good health care, you've got to keep moving south because if you're in Canada, you're getting the worst. But if you're in the United States, it's OK, but kind of expensive. Then you go to Mexico and get bleeding edge technology. The funny thing about it is when we want like dental care, that's not even included in our health insurance. And you get these people who complain about it on the left saying what my teeth aren't necessary for my living. They are.

But, bro, you go to Mexico and it's like 10 percent of the cost. You go to Mexico and you can get more advanced treatments than you get in the United States. This is the weirdest thing in Canada. They try to make this claim, the left, that health care is free. They try to make the claim in the UK. But anybody who's actually dealt with it knows. Good luck. You know what the thing is, though? This is how Communist Party stuff works. How much you want to bet?

If you're like a prominent if you're a prominent liberal or leftist who advocates in support of the system, you're going to find yourself getting preferred access somehow for some reason. You are going to go to the hospital and they're going to be like, what's your name? And someone's going to make a phone call and they're going to say, get them in now because you prop up their machine. But if you're a nobody, you get nothing.

And if you are a if you're anti-establishment against the government, good luck ever getting access in places like this. This is what communism is, OK? Not so much like the generic textbook communism or whatever the left thinks their communist utopia is. It's cronyism. Humans are going to be like humans always. And so you get these communists who come up and they say, you know, to each according to their need, from each according to their ability. Right.

The argument is in our society, you'll do what you can and get what you need. Now, that makes literally no sense, which I'll break down in a second. But what they think is you walk into a hospital. They say we'll treat you. And you get these pundits, these leftists, these liberals, these socialists saying, isn't it way better? They'll post videos where they're like, here's my health care bill. Zero dollars. That's what I get in my country. And then you're like, OK, what about the brain cancer lady? She's not getting anything.

So in the United States, it kind of does suck. Don't get me wrong. People here complain about health care. It's expensive, but you get to live with debt as opposed to slowly die. I don't know if there's anywhere that's going to have it perfect, but understand we have the technology. We can rebuild you. It's just expensive technology and someone has to do the work. Here's where it all breaks down. Individuals feel entitled to health care.

So when somebody gets an illness of some sort and they go to the doctor and it's expensive and they're bankrupt, a lot of people say we can't have that. Like, I kind of agree with that, right? You can't have people sick and dying in the streets. But, yo, go back 100 years. Go back 200 years. Go pre antibiotics, pre antiseptics. You would just die and lose your leg. The crazy thing is right now we have lost perspective on the technologies that we've built and the labor costs with them.

We have determined that living is so important, and it is, don't get me wrong, that people are entitled to the technologies and labors that in any other field cost ridiculous amounts of money. Look at right now, they got these robots. They got these humanoid robots that walk around and they'll carry your groceries for you. So,

When you're buying these robots, they cost like right now you can get it for twenty thousand dollars. Imagine if people were like, I'm entitled to this or better yet, imagine when we get robot surgeons with a 100 percent success rate and then people say, I deserve a robot surgeon. Bro, someone has to build that. Someone has to train that doctor. So it can't just exist this way.

But even in America, among the right, there are people who think the health care system is broken. It needs to be fixed. My friend, you are still saying you want specialist treatments from individuals who are trained or have to acquire resources and technology to develop the treatments for you, whatever it may be. I'm not saying it's totally fair. It definitely is broken. Don't get me wrong. I go to the hospital and it's like a bag of saline costs $500, some ridiculous amount because it's a weird garbage system.

That I'm not defending. I'm just saying health care is busted and I don't know if there's an easy fix. Now, as to these communists, what I absolutely love when they argue to each according to their ability from each. I'm sorry, to each according to their need, from each according to their ability. Imagine what that means. Imagine you have a population that grows to be net negative. The majority like you lose society's over. And that's what happened to the Soviet Union.

Let's say you have 100 million people in your country and 50% underperform. 50%. Let's say they can only produce one apple, but they need to consume two apples. I'm just simplifying it. Let's call it proteins. You give them one serving of protein, two servings of protein to survive, and they output one. They're only covering half their output. And then you have the rest of the country stable.

So you've got half the population that can produce just enough protein for themselves to survive, but half are producing at only 50%. Guess what happens? There won't be enough food and there will be riots and revolts. Congratulations. Communism is stupid and doesn't work. The reality is this.

People of means and ability are always going to find a way to make money and use that to empower and benefit themselves. There will always be people who are poor. There's nothing you can do about it. In the communist countries, it basically just meant everybody. In Canada, it means most people can't get health care. In the United States, it means wealthy people can. Some poor people can't. And everybody kind of is just stuck in the middle with garbage health care and big debt.

Again, we need to fix that weird problem with the health care system. But would you rather have nothing? So what I'm saying is, while we certainly do want to fix these things, at least we're not Canada. There's a viral story where a guy, he had an ambulance and they said that they're like, it's going to be free or whatever. And then he submitted his insurance and now it's going to cost him like a thousand bucks. And they were like, well, it's because if you're uninsured, you get free ambulance. And he was like, but I have insurance. And they're like, right, your insurance doesn't cover this. And he's like,

So I have to, or it's like a thousand dollar deductible. It's like, I got to pay for the ambulance. Like, yes. Can I just cancel my insurance? No. But if I had no insurance, it's free. Yes. Okay. So no one's going to buy insurance now. It is insane. But let me just get to the point, my friends. Perspective is everything. You know, I don't want this young lady to die. I hope she gets her treatment. But it looks like a year from now, that brain tumor may have metastasized and she might not make it that long. So I'm sick of this. Social healthcare is way better.

This means socialized health care means people who don't produce will get taken care of and people who do will not. That's an inevitability in any in any circumstance. I'll tell you this. Canadian elites will simply pay the money and fly somewhere else. So they have basically a single tower where the ultra wealthy can get whatever they want and the poor are all equally screwed.

In the United States, it's a bit of a bell curve, meaning a lot of people in the middle are going to suffer in debt, but at least they'll get treated. Ultra wealthy will get whatever they want and the poor won't. But it is a better system than what they offer. I'm going to leave it there, my friends. Stay tuned. We got more bits coming up for the day. And follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast. We'll see you all in a minute.

Elon Musk directly calling out Hasan Piker. So here's the story. It's about Assassin's Creed Shadows. Hasan did a paid post for them and they're loving it. Assassin's Creed apparently is having their second best opening day ever, which is surprising to me. I thought it would do bad because all that weird gay scene stuff, just it's not the game that I want to play. That's just me. But as I often say, hey man, you play the games you want just because I don't like it doesn't mean you're not allowed to have it.

I would have preferred like a feudal Japanese Assassin's Creed to have feudal Japanese characters, but they decided to go with the legend of Yasuke, the Black Samurai. Look, man, it's just fringe woke nonsense. And then there's this gay scene where like legit you're, you can, you can have gay romances or whatever. Not the game for me. You know, I played Baldur's Gate. I get it. Baldur's Gate 3 had options to be gay, pan or whatever and make trans characters. But, uh,

It's not the game itself. The storylines aren't overly woke. You can play the game and you never see any of these things, though you can make your character that way. The thing about Assassin's Creed is that there's two characters and it's largely, you know, how many grains of sand make a heap. And I feel like this was a desperate play. But Elon Musk calls Hassan a fraud and then says sellout would be more accurate. Objectively, he is promoting a terrible game just for the money.

Well, let's break this down. You know, I can sit here and I can pander to you guys and just ragging them all day, but it looks like Assassin's Creed may be doing well, unless it's some kind of PR stunt. Hassan the Hun, automated mirror on blue sky, said playing Assassin's Creed Shadows once more. Get in now for gaming. Hashtag ad. Buy it here. I got no beef. I don't like Hassan. I think he's a hypocrite and he's a grifter. But hey, he labeled his ad.

That's fine. If he likes the game, he can play it. Grum says you can tell a lot about Ubisoft with how much money they're throwing at terrorist platforming streamers. Yeah, Hassan has called for some pretty messed up stuff. So Elon Musk says Hassan is a fraud. Look at this proposed community notes. Sell it will be more accurate. Grum says anti-capitalist my butt. Hassan promos are not cheap. I love it. Yo, Hassan, let's go. Your endorsements don't come cheap.

What do community notes say about Elon? Elon claims to sign as a fraud without any evidence, yet he is the only one who has been caught lying about being good at video games, which would make him fraudulent by definition. What else? If Elon is a fraud and is jealous, welcome to politics, my friends. So Assassin's Creed actually responded. They said, this is to Grums, our game is out. Okay.

So Assassin's Creed Shadows isn't the hit Ubisoft desperately needs, analyst says. Assassin's Creed Shadows is selling well, but it's reportedly tracking behind Valhalla and falls short of 2025 hits like Split Fiction. They responded with, our game is out. They then responded to Elon Musk saying, is that what the guy playing your Path of Exile 2 account told you? Yo, listen, Assassin's Creed, is this the direction we're going? I used to love this game, to be completely honest.

I'm not so sure anymore. Pink News says someone please send ointment to Elon Musk. He's been badly burned by the Assassin's Creed X account. I just say cringe to all of this stuff. Everything's just fake outrage. Do I actually I thought I had an article pulled up saying that they were doing well. Do I not have that one? Thought I did. Assassin's Creed Shadows apparently is doing decently well. And I have no problem. Here we go. Let's pull this up from variety. I don't care.

Like, I'm not going to sit here and just be like, no, they have to fail. It's like, oh, wow, they sold. I got to be honest. I would just try to analyze it and figure out what the reason may be. I think buying a sponsor from Hassan is probably a good idea. Rallying behind politics can boost your sales is the game that they're going to play. And the idea is quite simple. A lot of people hate Elon Musk. Elon Musk coming out against the game and attacking Hassan is going to drive sales from people who just want it to succeed because they hate Elon Musk.

I drive my Cybertruck. People scream at me because they're insane people. I don't care. Bro, if you want to play Assassin's Creed Shadows, like by all means do so. I got no beef. I'm just not going to buy it. Kind of like I tell people, dude, you're allowed to like the show Severance. I don't like it. It's like a C minus D plus. I think it's overhyped. It's overrated. But you're allowed to like it and watch the show. Just tell me you think I'm wrong. Fine. Variety reports.

Assassin's Creed Shadows has become Ubisoft's second highest selling title ever at launch. It crossed two million activations in internal communications obtained by Monday by Variety. The developer told employees that player engagement is at record levels and that feedback across moderated varied platforms, feedback across moderated varied platforms, I mean, for less affected by review bombing remains incredibly positive. Ah, I see. They're saying anybody who's saying we're bad, it's fake news.

Though no specific sales numbers have been revealed for the game, a source within Ubisoft has confirmed to Variety that Shadows has the next best day one sales revenue for an Assassin's Creed title behind only 2020's Valhalla. The title also marks Ubisoft's best day one launch of any game on the PlayStation digital store. Again, they haven't given us the numbers, but that's what they're saying.

Out of the total activations, PC activations account for around 27% with Steam playing a significant role. The 14th major installment in the action role-playing game, Shadows, launched March 20th after multiple release date delays. On September 25th, Ubisoft made the decision to delay as it creates Shadows. Blah, blah, blah. We get it. Look.

I don't want to play any game that uses wokeness for its marketing. I'll just do that. Baldur's Gate 3, as far as I know, that wasn't a component. In Dragon Age Veilguard, it's majorly woke. And so I just... That barf scene, you guys have already heard me talk about it. I ain't playing that game. Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Guys, Yasuke was a real guy. Okay. It was a black dude who was a Jesuit missionary, went to Japan. There was this guy and he was like, I ain't never seen a black guy before. So why don't we bring him in? There's a debate over whether or not Yasuke was actually a samurai or just a sword bearer. But a lot of people like, dude, he was getting paid and was given a sword. Legit. He was a samurai. And I'm like, whatever. So they made him a character in this game. And I'm just, why? Look,

If they I'd have no problem if it was like a side bonus character or you could play this character. But, dude, I've said it a million times when they did the American Revolution one and you could play like the main character was Native American based. I love that game. That was fun. Assassin's Creed. It's a fun game. Super fun game. But then they were just like, we're into feudal Japan and we are not going to give people of Japanese heritage their due.

It's like, whatever, I guess. It's a video game. Play what you want to play. It just, to me, is kind of like you've decided to go mission-driven in your game sales. I hope it works out for you. Apparently it is. I think a big component that helps the game is, one, Assassin's Creed's are good games. So I was curious as to whether or not, I mean, I actually think my position was this game's going to bomb. Because you've got that scene where the black samurai makes out with that dude. And I'm just like, I think a lot of people are going to not want to play that.

I do think, however, they made a very smart play in sponsoring Hassan Piker because this is the direction the game went. They shouldn't even bother with people like me. So people may actually end up playing this game. I might actually play it for the review purposes. So we could do a I'll give you a breakdown. But.

You know, I think my principal issue with a lot of these games is mostly having to do with the marketing of it. Because like I said, Baldur's Gate 3, everybody's gay. But like, kind of not really. Like, in the game, it's just, you can have your character do this. I understand the same thing with Assassin's Creed, the gay romances are optional, but

But Baldur's Gate 3 didn't market it this way, and it wasn't a major point of contention. In Baldur's Gate 3, you can actually make your character anything you want. And I kind of just shrug. So you can make a guy, but then give him lady parts. And you give him a lady voice. Or the other way around. Actually kind of funny. You can make like a dwarf woman who has a man's voice. I think that's actually kind of funny. And then the game gets wacky and weird. But that's more of a you can do whatever you want with it. And it was a great game. Baldur's Gate 3, one of the best games I've ever played.

I think I might check out Assassin's Creed Shadows, but I don't know that I want to buy it because I don't like it when companies use the wokeness for their marketing specifically. And when they make the game's core component specifically to pander to this leftist view of race and all that stuff, I just don't know. I want to be involved in any of that, especially when they're paying Hassan. I'm like, man, I don't really care all that much, but I kind of just I don't know if I want to contribute to that. You know what I mean? Get woke, go broke, all of that stuff.

Now, what will be interesting is if they actually release the numbers and we can see if it actually is a big release, because this is make or break for Ubisoft. If they do not sell at a moderate, I think I think if they sell at record breaking levels, they were saying that if they don't sell at at like high numbers and it moderates, they're done as a company. They put everything on this game. So we're going to see.

But I do want to give a shout out to Pink News. Someone please send the ointment to Elon Musk. He's been badly burned by the Assassin's Creed X account. And I'm just like, OK, I guess they said that he was paying someone to play video games for him.

Whatever, man. But I want to give him a shout out because it's all fake. Look at this. Severance director Ben Stiller insults anti LGBTQ podcaster who then thanks him for it. It's all fake. It's all fake. I didn't thank him for insulting me. I thanked him for making Tropic Thunder where he put he put Robert Downey Jr. in blackface and he himself played a character who went, quote unquote, full retard.

I said Tropic Thunder is one of the greatest movies ever made. And I stand by it. And Ben Stiller wrote, produced and directed it. Ben, incredible work. Severance, I don't know. I don't think it's good. I don't think it's the worst. I think a lot of people like it, but a lot of people don't like it.

And so Ben Stiller responded to me with the little nerd face emoji. And I said, Tropic Thunder was one of the greatest movies ever made. Thank you, sir. And then they're lying about it. Not to mention, what is anti LGBTQ plus have to do with us talking about severance? And then what is this?

Someone said, I sleep so well knowing I'll never F up as bad as Tim Pool. What does that mean? I'm a multimillionaire with my own private skate park. I fly in private jets. I don't know what I did wrong. I think I'm living pretty well. I can buy a video game if I want to buy it. And I get to talk to Ben Stiller. These people live in a fake world of fake outrage. I'm not mad at Ben Stiller. I don't think severance is apocalyptically bad. I'd actually love to talk to Ben about it. I don't know his politics. I think he's kind of Democrat. I'm not really mad at him. But anyway, the point is this. It's offense.

Fake. It's all fake outrage. Everybody's just faking it. Me, I'm like moderately irked by woke marketing in these games. And my response is always, hey, man, buy the games you want to buy. If you want to play Assassin's Creed, I got no beef. I'm just going to tell you I think it's dumb and I think it's cringe. And then you can play it. And I ain't mad at you.

If I come over to your house, you're playing Assassin's Creed. How is it? I might try it. I don't know. I just think it's cringe when they do all this woke marketing. I do want to give a thank you to Pink News, though. Thank you for using the picture of me when I was 25. Because you could have used the one where I'm fat. Whatever, man. I'm going to wrap it up there. Stay tuned, man. We got more segments coming up. And I'll see you all in a bit. Follow me on X and Instagram.

This is a very serious story, ladies and gentlemen. Four American soldiers are found dead after vanishing in Lithuania, reportedly near the border with Belarus. And man, people are worried. Look, it's a sad story either way. And I hope we get some information on how these U.S. troops died.

But the scary thing is, I know, I know, probably a lot of people don't want me to talk about it, but with the proximity to Belarus, there's concerns that this could be an expansion of the war in Ukraine, force Donald Trump's hand, and make everything a whole lot worse. Here's the story from the Daily Mail. Four U.S. Army soldiers have reportedly been found dead the day after they were reported missing during a training exercise in Lithuania. The four servicemen, who have not been identified by authorities, were with the 1st Brigade 3rd Infantry Division.

Early reports indicate that the soldiers may have been traveling in an M-88 recovery vehicle, one of the largest armored vehicles used by the U.S. military, which may have fallen into a body of water. I mean, OK, the soldiers have been reported missing around 445 p.m. Tuesday following a training exercise near Prabade, Lithuania, sparking a widespread search conducted by the U.S. Army and Lithuanian authorities.

The soldiers were reportedly carrying out a tactical training routine at the General Silvestris Zoukouskis. I'm pronouncing that wrong, probably. Training in Pravrade. I'm probably pronouncing that wrong, too. Which is less than six miles from the border with Belarus. The Lithuanian Armed Forces said Wednesday they identified a possible location of the missing soldiers and their vehicle.

The military said in a statement that a search and rescue operation is underway, led by the Lithuanian Armed Forces, with additional capabilities from the Fire Protection and Rescue Department and other institutions. Officials have not offered any details regarding how the soldiers or their vehicle went missing, nor the manner of their reported deaths. Okay, let's just pause. I don't want to get sensational. It's a crazy story, and who knows what happened. Maybe they drove into water and they drowned. That seems kind of crazy, but these things can happen. We've got some images.

The U.S. military was performing joint training exercises with Lithuanian forces amid rising tensions between Baltic nations and Russia. This is what is alarming. Let me pull up Google Earth for you guys, and I can pull you up this. Actually, let's do this. Let's do the Ukraine battle map. That's better. The Ukrainian battle map. What's going on currently in Ukraine and Russia? Take a look at this. Here's the concern. So if you take a look at this battle map,

We could move over to Lithuania and you can see here you've got the border with Belarus. Belarus is aligned with Russia and Russian troops are stationed there. You can also see that not only is Lithuania bordering Belarus, they're actually bordering Russia.

to the west. You've got Kaliningrad, which is a Russian oblast north of Poland and southwest of Lithuania. So you've got Russian troops right there on the border. You've got Russian Navy moving in and out of the Baltic, and you've got Belarusian troops and Russian troops as potential conflict, I suppose. Putin had reportedly been using Belarus to stage Russian nuclear weapons as the conflict is in heating up. So again, let's put a pause real quick.

Hopefully this is not an escalation of war, some kind of false flag or direct attack on U.S. troops that may get us involved in a full scale war. Considering what's been going on, I hope not. I do want to say this. Russia has Russia's made some agreements and I think there's some movement towards a sea fire. So there's a black sea ceasefire right now, meaning that Ukraine and Russia are going to stop fighting again. We'll go to the battle map here.

They're going to stop fighting in the in the Black Sea, which is good. We got to zoom out a little bit. But Russia wants the U.S. to pull out weapons and drop sanctions before they will agree to a wide scale ceasefire. So I'm going to say this right now. I don't think foul play. I don't think anybody should jump the gun on this one. You know, I want to do the segment because I want to get in front of it and just say, in my opinion, accidents happen. And it's a tragic story of four that four troops lost their lives, they're presumed dead.

But the last thing we want is for any of this to be exploited to escalate the war. And I fear that's what may happen. They're going to say Lithuania, along with neighbors Latvia and Estonia, have often had tense ties with Russia since declaring independence from the Soviet Union in 1990. All are members of NATO.

Relations in the region worsened following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, and Lithuanian President Gitanas Naseda has been one of the most vocal European leaders supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russian President Vladimir Putin's forces. In a press release issued before the soldiers were reportedly found, Lieutenant General Charles Constanza said,

He added, the search included...

The deployment of helicopters from the Air Force and State Border Guard Service. The U.S. Army has not commented on the soldiers' deaths and previously said the soldiers were on a scheduled tactical training at the time of the incident. It's a developing story. There's more information to come. I do believe I may have an update here.

Let's see, we got four U.S. soldiers with the 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division from Fort Stewart, Georgia, have been found dead at a training ground in eastern Lithuania near the border with Belarus. With it believed that their M88A2 armored recovery vehicle sunk into a swamp during an exercise on Tuesday near Probody, Lithuania. You know, I hate to say it, man.

But I hope that's the case. Seriously. And I hope this turns out to be a big nothing burger. But considering the tensions in the region and the escalation, figured we'd bring it up. Previous information. I don't know. They say they're armored vehicle. Lithuanian armed forces led the search. So it looks like it's just a training accident and kind of kind of brutal. I'll just put it this way. I don't know why we've got U.S. troops in Lithuania.

Honestly, like let's let's let's talk about this. What is the what is the deployment to Lithuania for? This is where we are getting into the major risks of World War Three. I don't know why we are right now dealing with this aftermath of the signal text messaging scandal, which honestly, I mean, it's it's remarkable how angry people are about it, to be honest, when it's just like, OK, a journalist was given information. But that's routine. Journalists are often intentionally given this information.

So we've got U.S. troops in Lithuania, Poland, Germany. I mean, basically everywhere in Europe. We are footing the bill for European defense while they are engaging in conflict with Russia, dragging us, the United States, thousands of miles away. I don't know why we're engaged in this. We can jump down and take a look at Yemen. And once again, you can see with the Gulf of Aden and the Suez Canal, the United States is basically the world police. And my question is,

Why? Why are four American troops dead in Lithuania? Now, by all means, you're going to come. People are going to come with a lot of reasons. They're going to explain the reason why we must have U.S. troops abroad. There's concerns about Chinese expansion. We don't want a one world unipolar Chinese communist government. Fine. I get it.

But the U.S. government never justifies this to the people. And that's basically what we got with the signal messages that got leaked. J.D. Vance is basically saying the American people don't even know who the Houthis are or why we're bombing these people in Yemen. We never declared war on them. The U.S. basically just goes around bombing targets it determines are against its interests. So we're basically in a state of warfare all over the planet all the time. That is not what the founding fathers intended. And it's not what the American people want.

So last thing any of us wants is to see a story where four servicemen, four U.S. Army personnel are dead, even if it's an accident. Again, it's kind of hard to say, but I hope it was just an accident. That's what it's sounding like. This is this. These are the stories we get. And we wonder why our border isn't secure. Our infrastructure is failing, but we got money for days.

to wage war and engage in these operations in foreign countries that won't do it themselves. Who was it who had that line? They got two. Was it Tupac? They got money. They can't feed the poor, but they got they got money for wars, but they can't feed the poor. Not look. I don't think just giving food to everybody answers anything solves any problems. I'm just saying outright.

I'm tired of this default position that we need to have U.S. troops everywhere in the world all the time without justification. I'm tired of the double standards that Trump is a great president when he fires missiles into Syria. That's the story. I'm tired of the double standards, man. I just want I want transparency.

I want honesty and largely, I don't think there's any justification for why the U.S. effectively occupies so many of these countries. Following World War II, we never left. We stayed in Japan. We stayed in Germany. We eventually occupied South Korea, to which we still do. Don't get me wrong. South Koreans very much like our presence there. But we went in there, joined the war on one side of the faction. We've been there ever since. I just want to know why legitimately South

A vague response of we don't want someone else to take control. OK, Europe should be footing the bill for their own defense. Yet here we are time after time hearing about how our men and women are dying in a foreign country where we're not even at war. Just think about it that way. Someone comes to you and says, you know, four Americans died today. And you're like, wow, where Lithuania?

Why? Well, they're in the army. I know. Why are they in Lithuania? What are they doing that we need to be in that country right now? How many Lithuanian troops are in the United States? How many Lithuanian troops are in Chechnya or Chechnya? You get my point, man. I feel for the families. Sorry to hear the story. It's breaking news and hopefully it's an accident. This doesn't escalate anything, but I'll wrap it up there. Stay tuned. We got more segments coming up and we'll see you all in a bit.
