Tim Pool: 我认为民主党人凌驾于法律之上,他们可以为所欲为。他们可以违法、攻击执法人员,并威胁追究他们责任的人。纽瓦克市长非法侵入ICE设施,民主党代表攻击执法部门。视频显示,民主党代表用拳头袭击了某人,因为他们逮捕了纽瓦克市长。应该逮捕那些违反法律、殴打警察的民主党代表。AOC警告说,如果逮捕民主党同事,就会有问题。我认为国土安全部在违法,并威胁说如果有人动了民主党代表,就会有问题。在华盛顿特区,她可能会胜诉,因为她打了白人警察。特朗普应该下令逮捕违反法律的人。

assaulting law enforcement and storming their way into an ICE facility. It's not going to happen. Nonetheless, Democrats are posturing Jeffries and AOC both saying there's going to be big problems if you try and arrest people who broke the law.

Because, of course, they are above the law. Now, many of you may have heard that last night Judge Dugan was indicted by a grand jury in Wisconsin for aiding and abetting a criminal alien, allowing him to escape law enforcement, for which he actually tried to run away. And they caught him. Indeed. You see, Democrats like to say no one is above the law. But included within that is a little asterisk that says accept all Democrats all the time. Family guy had a funny joke.

where Quagmire's dad and family guy, for those who don't know, is transgender. And Quagmire's dad is watching adult content at a bar, and the bartender says, hey, oh, you can't watch that here. And to which Quagmire's dad says, it's okay, I'm transgender. And the bartender goes, oh, okay, well, do whatever you want all the time.

That basically explains what it means to be a Democrat and why so many people want to be in the cult. It is a privileged group of people who can break the law, physically close fist punch federal law enforcement, claim it never happened, and then threaten you if you want to bring them to justice. Now, DHS has released body camera footage that is particularly revealing. What we learn from this is that the mayor of Newark

was trespassing in the ICE facility. They had entered the ICE facility illegally, illegally, and were warned to leave. And he refused several times. And they kept saying, I'm going to give you one more warning. You can't be here. Finally, they all start to walk out. And the cops say, no, we're going to arrest you for trespassing. It is at that moment that the Democrat reps physically attack law enforcement. It would seem, based on this footage they've released, that

The Democratic members of the House physically assaulted. And I'm going to show you the video. You've seen it. Maybe you've seen it. Maybe you didn't. Closed fist punching law enforcement. Not kidding. It seems like they did this because they were trying to stop the arrest from happening. Let me let me play the video footage for you. Mayor of the largest city.

he says you will be placed under arrest

So here's here's the interesting question. Honest question. They don't actually. There's a jump. They don't actually show what happened between this is your last warning. You will be placed under arrest. The mayor leaving. So I ask question. Why did they then go out to arrest the mayor? Maybe they determined.

You know, he was already arrested. I kind of feel like if he defied their last warning, they'd have shown it. So they're saying that because he was on this side that they're. So here come the police to arrest him. And it is then when you see the fight break out.

So you can see they're going to arrest the mayor right now. Now watch what the Democrat rep in red does. This is when she shoves her way in and starts attacking law enforcement.

As they were trying to make this arrest. So you can see he's got his hands behind his back. That is revealing. That is revealing. But we've got more, my friends. We've got more. This is a tape that we I played for you the other day, but I'm going to play it again now. You can see this is Rep. LaMonica McIver.

This is when they are bringing the mayor in after being arrested. Watch this. I want to jump to the to the end of this clip where they show her closed fist punch. Here you can see her arm. It's grainy, but watch. This is her arm. And you can see that's a strike. I don't know who she's striking, but they show she struck somebody close fist. But wait, there's more. This is the video. Again, I know we played this the other day. For those that missed it. Here's the Democratic rep in red right here.

There's a cop, a fed right here. She punches him in the arm, closed fist, punches him, and then she strikes again. So she punches the guy and then she swings her arm down. Why? Because they were arresting the mayor of Newark for trespass. So this scene that everybody saw, this is after they arrested the guy already.

So I think the assumption a lot of people that I did, my mistake was that the way the video footage came out, it looked like this video was them trying to storm their way into the ICE facility. It is. It is. Let me clarify. What I had presumed was that they showed the protest and then started fighting the cops to break their way in. And then the mayor of Newark got arrested. In fact, they came out to arrest the mayor of Newark. The Democrats physically attacked, say it again, punched the cops physically.

to try and break their way in after the fact because they were trying to stop the arrest of the mayor of Newark. That's crazy, man. Close fist strike. So that strike they're showing, that was after she punched the cop already. So here's her fist striking the cop. Now watch. Someone's going to come up on her right side and she's going to hit them too.

Boom, right there. It looks like it's a cop, too. It looks like she's hitting two cops. So let's go back to what Jeffries had to say. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries warned Republicans and federal law enforcement against sanctioning or arresting three Democratic New Jersey lawmakers who were involved in a tense immigration protest.

They'll find out. They'll find out. They'll find out, Jeffrey said Tuesday when asked how he'd respond to officials arrested or sanctioned Democratic reps Rob Menendez, LaMonica McIver and Bonnie Watson. That's a red line. It's a red line. It's very clear. The three Democrats were inspecting the new facility, which is set to play a major role in the White House Northeast immigration operations, and were involved in a scrum, a scrum, Politico says.

When federal agents arrested Newark Mayor Ross Baraka, who authorities said was trespassing. DHS spokesperson on Saturday said arrests for three lawmakers were on the table. Do it. I'm so sick of this. Do it. Arrest them. You guys comment below. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I am wrong. And maybe y'all don't want them to be arrested. I think you do. Comment below.

If you would like them to be arrested and let's see if we can generate a mass swarm of people saying we want them arrested. They broke the law. They physically punched a cop on more than one occasion. It appears. First of all, I think the so-called Homeland Security spokesperson is a joke. Jeffrey said it's a joke. They know better than to go down that road. And it's been made loudly and abundantly clear to the Trump administration. We're not going to be intimidated by their tactics to try and force principled opposition from not standing up to their extremism.

AOC warns of problem if Democratic colleagues are arrested. Rep AOC warned Trump admins, admin officials that they would soon face a problem if they continued arresting her fellow Democratic colleagues.

AOC specifically called out Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and borders are Tom Homan. If anyone's breaking the law in this situation, it's not members of Congress. It's the Department of Homeland Security, said during an Instagram video posted Sunday. It's people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on someone on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the reps that were there, you lay a finger on them. You're going to have a problem because the people who are breaking the law are the people not abiding by it.

Yes, that is a fact statement. AOC agreed. I would argue the woman who punched somebody was not abiding by the law. OK, then arrest him. Newark, New Jersey, Mayor Ross Baraka was arrested during the visit as he was trespassing. Delaney Hall has become a contentious point in New Jersey with the Trump administration administration officials saying the facility is critical in its effort to detain violent immigrants. You know, Fox Fox News did a tour of the facility.

And I was pissed. I was so pissed to see the inside of this ice facility. I got to tell you guys, I was shocked at how nice it is and how much they are giving to these criminal aliens. We're not talking about illegal immigrants. This facility is for murderers, rapists, drug dealers, traffickers, etc. And they get like tennis courts and they get gym time and they get, you know, they get a nice little cafeteria. And I'm like, what?

I'm kidding, by the way. It's fine. They're getting nice things. You know, we don't we want to make sure that we're treating inmates humanely. But here's here's the funny thing. No matter how nice they made it, no matter how much they give to these evil scumbags, the Democrats act like it's the apocalypse unless the criminal illegal aliens are allowed to rampage through our streets and do whatever they want. Yeah, that's the way the Democrats are playing the game.

We got this one from Daily Caller. Democrat lawmaker cheered about unity before allegedly throwing hands with DHS agents. OK, come on, come on, come on. I am playing this game, Daily Caller. There's a video of her punching the guy. I'm so sick of this. Allegedly is for when someone accuses it and alleges it, not for when we have video of it that you can assert that.

I'm going to play it again. I'm going to play it again for you. Look at that. Slow motion. Slow motion. There she goes. Punching the guy in the arm. She's punching a guy in the arm. You can see this guy. He's got police written on his back. Police. And then she's just punching him. Punch. Punch. Look at that. And then wait. There's more. Punch again. Second. Come on. Allegedly. Allegedly. Let me let me explain to you all the Daily Caller.

Hudson, who wrote this. I know you got a legal team and they're telling you we can't say she did. Why not? Allegedly is for when an accusation is made and they've been accused of a crime, but you've not proven it. When you have a video showing her do it. Yeah, that's you're allowed to say that she did. It's you know, these people are all terrified of defamation lawsuits. You're not going you're not going to get sued for defamation for defamation when you're showing a video of the rep punching a cop. OK, OK, now hold on.

I suppose we can argue it was actually just some random man wearing a windbreaker that said police ice on it. Actually, I don't know what it says. I could say HSI. Who knows? But as a police that you can clearly see, maybe it's a random guy. She punched someone in a police outfit. How's that fact? I don't think Republicans are going to do anything. I think Akeem Jeffries is they're shaking in their boots. Republicans never do anything. Yeah.

I'm not having it. I want to see Donald Trump issue an order to his DOJ saying, go and arrest them. They broke the law. No one is above the law. I want to see it happen. And I'm wondering why it's taking so long. You know, it's fascinating to me when people try to argue about Miranda rights, right? Let me explain. You know, I'm on Simcast IRL and I get these super chats and there are people who legitimately believe that

because they've never they never actually Google it, that whenever, anytime you get arrested, the cops must read you your rights. False. Miranda rights are only read if the police are investigating and they want to use a statement you make. You don't seem to understand this. If the police hear that you were like if someone calls cops and says,

This guy stole a purse, punched a woman. They come and find you. They may read you your rights. They don't have video footage. They didn't witness it, but you're identified by witnesses. And so they're going to say you have rights to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you. That way, when they ask you questions specifically, were you here? What did you do? You knew your rights. You could shut up. That gets rid of all doubt. There's also a thing where

I forgot what it's called, but if you blurt out you did something, if the cop doesn't ask you, anything you say can be used against you. It is only when they are going to ask you a question. And so what happens is these people are like, no, that's not true. They have to. No, they don't. And it's funny because every single cop I've ever had on the show, they're like, yeah, we don't have to do that. In this instance, OK, Mirandizing, the reason I bring that up, they could arrest these Democrats like that. Why? There's video of them punching cops.

They don't need a grand jury indictment. They don't need to go and collect evidence beyond this. There is a video and there is the cop who got hit and they can say, did you get as a yes, I did. Here's the video, ma'am. You're under arrest and she will lose. To be fair in D.C., maybe she actually wins because we know it's not about justice anymore. Right. In D.C., they're going to say, no, she had a cop. Cop was white. She's free to go. Maybe maybe she'll get a judge.

But they're going to, you know, this is the political game that's being played. Anyway, I'm going to wrap it up there, my friend. Smash that like button. Share the show with everyone you know. Stay tuned. We got more segments coming up for you today. And you can follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast. And we'll see y'all then. Young men are failing.

By most metrics, they're not doing as well as their female peers. And there are questions as to why this is. Young men are not dating. They're not getting physically in shape. They're not finding good jobs. And largely, I think society is to blame. But I also think that it is easier than ever for young men and women, for anybody, to learn how to be the best, to look up to people who succeed and find a path towards success. The problem?

This road that you would walk down towards success, it is surrounded on all sides by false prophets, people who find success in the most disgusting and evil ways. And to truly understand what it is to be successful and honorable and virtuous, it's difficult. What we're seeing now in large numbers, as young men seem to fail, they are turning to Donald Trump and to God, which I find particularly interesting. But

These paths walking in this direction seems to lead towards a life of success, but also honor. We have this story from The New York Times I found really interesting. It's not just a feeling. Data shows boys and young men are falling behind. Boys' educational achievement, mental health, and transitions to adulthood indicate that many are not thriving. It's not the only one. The Wall Street Journal has this story from September.

America's young men are falling even further behind. Men in their 20s and early 30s are much more likely than female peers to live with their parents. And many say they feel aimless and isolated. You know, I know it's not easy. And a lot of men are going to fall off and they're going to fail. But thus is the nature of being a man. And when I see these stories about young men failing, actually, I'm not I'm not at all moved, to be completely honest.

There is no reality where men get to just be given success, strength, honor, nobility, etc. It was always going to be hard. And if young men are unwilling to endure the hardships to carve themselves out of stone, so be it. But that being said, that message needs to be delivered to young men. And so,

As I mentioned, as I open this, that the path forward is surrounded by false prophets, by con men and snake oil salesmen. It is increasingly difficult to know which path to go down. Still, when you see that young men are doing nothing, I shed a tear, not a single tear for any one of you. If you right now are overweight, you sit around playing video games all day, you don't have a job and you live with your parents. Congratulations, I guess.

I feel no sadness for you. You've made those choices and congratulations. This is what your life will be. But there are others who have either found the path at a young age or who have figured out later in life this is not right and are working towards success. To know what it means to be a man.

Let me read the story for you, and then we'll break down the femininity from the corporate press and from society that I believe is actually hurting young men, because this is the narrative they're playing. When the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and all these other outlets say that young men are failing, what they're really saying is men should be women. Here's the story. Boys and young men are struggling across their lives and their educational achievement, mental health, and transitions to adulthood. There are warning signs they're falling behind, even as their female peers surge ahead.

I'm going to pause right now and say that's not true either. The female peers are not searching ahead. They are judging men by female standards and females by male standards. This is going to be a great problem.

While you simultaneously have young men struggling to get out of the house, find a job and live their lives, you inversely have women who are older and have no families and people like Chelsea Handler who say that life is great because all they do is wake up in the morning, do drugs and masturbate. I would also call that failure to launch. They are acting like permanent children. Ah, but the argument is, but they have money. OK, fine.

Money ain't everything. Money is the means by which we can make trades for what purpose? I suppose the reality is when you tell people that there isn't one, then they lay around and do nothing. If you cannot learn, if you're a man or woman, and you cannot perceive and you cannot build, I'm not going to cry for you. Thus is life and nature, and it is as God made us. You have free will and choices you must make.

I think I want to say in the U.S., researchers say that several economic and social changes have combined to change boys and men's trajectories. School has changed in ways that favor girls and work has changed in ways that favor women. Boys are often seen as troublemakers and men have heard that masculinity is toxic. Young men themselves tend to agree that girls are now at least equal to and often doing better than men than boys.

Many young men say they feel unmoored and undervalued. And parents and adults who work with children and were are worried about boys. It's not just a feeling. There's a wealth of data that shows that boys and young men are stagnating. Below, I'll explain what some of that data is. I don't care. I care in a macro sense, but I am also offended by the idea that there are men out there who are whining because they feel undervalued. Is that the message you got from being a man?

You feel undervalued, so you're unmoored and unmotivated. Well, that sucks. Other guys who felt undervalued and unmotivated decided that they would have to push through these feelings of despair, this lack of motivation. And if they wanted to feel valued, they'd have to climb Mount Everest figuratively. Oh, sometimes literally.

And that's the two paths before you. The young men who say nobody cares anyway, what's the point? And the other young man who says, why won't anybody care? I'll prove them all wrong. And those young men that seek to prove everyone wrong or to at very least prove they were always worth it, they succeed. No matter how strong or smart or stupid, it was the perseverance and their refusal to give up that led to that success.

The New York Times says some boys have been affected more than others. The outcomes for black boys are worse and growing up in poverty disproportionately hurts boys. In some cases, the patterns aren't new. Boys have always lagged girls in certain areas. If there's been little focus on their issues, perhaps because men have dominated in so many spheres. Really? Like schools? Young men are struggling because men dominate? What a ridiculous notion. This is beginning to change, said Nobi Way, author of Rebels With a Cause. They're going to mention school.

Schools become more academic earlier, perhaps making it harder for boys who generally mature later than girls. Researchers say boys enter kindergarten behind girls in both their academic readiness and their behavior. The gender gaps persist as they move through school. Across the U.S., girls score better on reading tests than boys. Girls earn higher GPAs. Boys are more likely to be suspended. That is not because boys are failing. It is because schools are made for girls.

If these schools were largely physical based, boys wouldn't be getting suspended. But they are not there. Sit down. Shut up. Sit still. That is not conducive to a testosterone laden young man.

All this leads to a lower likelihood of graduating high school on time for boys and girls. 83% for boys compared with 89% for girls. Women also outnumber men in college enrollment, which is linked to broader career prospects and higher earnings. Of recent male high school graduates, about 57% are enrolled in college, barely up from 54%. And this is a lie. Let me break down the nuance in this so you can understand what really matters. Career prospects and higher earnings.

You know what they failed to mention? Also, massive debt. The real question is the buying power of the jobs. Young men may be moving into trades that give them greater buying power with less debt. They may make less money in the short term than college grads, but without debt, they will earn three times the amount of money by retirement. This is what I can't stand about the feminization, the feminization of all of the institutions.

Now, it's one thing to not understand the data. My point is they're saying it is better that you have a white collar job and sit down with your degree so you can earn more. And I'm sitting here being like, earn more right now with debt. How much am I going to clear after I pay all my bills? What's my disposable income? Many young men probably aren't failing by this metric. They're saying I did the math.

If I don't go to college and I take a trade, I'm going to have 1.5 million by retirement. If I go to college, I'll have 500,000. Do the math. There was tons of economists have done the math and said, if you go to college, you will end up in debt with a negative net worth until your early 30s. No joke. Early 30s. By the time you to overcome that, even after 30, you may be making more money, but you are 10 years behind.

They did the math on trade schools and general trades, take an apprenticeship, and then you become an electrician or a plumber or whatever. You will make less money salary wise. But by the time you're 30, your net worth will be 50 to 100,000 if you are saving appropriately. And that's true. And by saving, I mean, when you're young, you're unmarried, you're single, you're largely not spending money. Then when you retire, they estimate you could have three times as much as a college graduate. So I go to college.

That's the message, I suppose. Women outpacing men in college, mental health. I love this. They say that boys are twice as likely as girls to be diagnosed with ADHD or autism. Just get out of here with all this stuff. It's more like guys are different from girls and they're using girls as the standard. Well, enough about this. I want to show you where we end up. Gen Z's personal finances are improving more than older generations, but disagrees with Trump's handling of inflation. Really? OK, Gen Z, chill.

Inflation eased to four-year low in April as Trump's tariffs took effect, CPI report shows. Here we go. Gen Z men voted for Trump. And from the Christian Post, the future of the church isn't dying, it's rising. Look at Gen Z and millennial males. Here's what I see. Young men are struggling. You've got, let me see, number of virgins in America hits record highs from January. And they're saying that young men aren't dating. They're not getting married. There's several reasons for this. What I think we're seeing is

is that the feminine institutions, journalism, for instance, is overwhelmingly female. Journalism, call it whatever you want. Overwhelmingly female. These women base everything on female standards. So if young men are staying at home with their parents, doesn't necessarily mean they're failing. To be fair, if there are young men who don't work, aren't being trained, and are just sleeping at home with their parents and doing nothing, playing video games all day, I'd call that failing. But what if the reality is young men aren't going to college because they're

They're finding a better path forward. What if some of these men are staying home with their parents, not because it's failure to launch, but because they believe in family and they're helping support their families? How much of that data gets lost? Now, to be honest, I do largely believe that young men are failing. There's a failure to launch, a failure to date, and there's excuses everywhere. There's no excuse. So I want to say to all the young men that may hear this first,

There is a turn to Trump and to Jesus. People are looking for purpose. And with Donald Trump, they're looking for strong masculinity. You might find him silly or whatever you want to think. He's a bully. Andrew Tate as well. Here's what I'll say to the young men. You can fail. I don't care. That's on you, not me or not anybody else. You have access to the summation of human knowledge on the Internet. You can choose to be great or not. You can sit there and say, I don't feel good. I'm depressed. OK, fine.

This is why people like Andrew Tate and as much as conservatives want to rag on him, they don't get it. They don't understand why there are men who line up to meet this guy. I don't think he's as prominent as conservatives want to make him out to be. He's certainly got a big following. They want to act like, you know, he's the he's a leader of a youth movement or something. But I'll tell you this. Andrew Tate had a video.

He said, when I wake up, it doesn't matter if I'm sad or depressed. It doesn't matter how I feel. I am a man and I have a job to do. Whether I feel good or not, it must be done. No excuses. That's what it means to be a man. Okay. Well, by all means, if you want to be an overweight person,

sad, unemployed, neat, you're free to do so. Ain't nobody going to cry about it. Just one more guy not in the dating pool. So the dudes who actually want to, I don't know, lift weights, succeed and push their hardest, no matter what they feel, they're going to have an easier go of it, I guess. Less competition. That's how it's always been to be a man. That's why you have the greater male variability hypothesis. There are men who are willing to break bones to succeed, and there are men who are scared and want to sit back and hide.

You choose which one you want to be every day. You may see, I'll tell you this right now, you're sitting in bed, not all of you, probably a lot of guys that are lifting weights as they're listening to this and they're going, yep. For all the other guys out there who are doing nothing, when I wake up in the morning, it doesn't matter how I feel, what I'm thinking. I'd love to just go out, put my feet up on a rocking chair with some delicious unsweetened iced tea. And I say, no matter what happens, I have a job to do. I have to do it.

If you're sitting there right now and you're unmotivated, I don't think there's such a thing as motivation. I really don't. Motivation is a fact position, not a feeling. And so there are people who are like, I just don't feel motivated. I don't care if that is not a thought in my mind, whether I feel motivated or not. It must be done. Maybe you'd say that's motivation. I don't know. It's a fact point because there are some days where I get it. My feelings are unmotivated. I just don't want to do it.

But there is a fact point that it must be done. My point is this. If you're sitting there right now and you're saying, I just don't feel like doing it. OK, even if you don't feel like doing it, you know, in your mind, you must. The question is, how strong is your will? And so what I see here largely is that there are a lot of guys who are weak willed. And that's what we are seeing. They complain about women all day.

They complain about the government. They complain about all of this stuff. And I'm just like, okay, complain all day. I complain on the internet for a living. But I do stuff. I do things. I don't just sit around and do nothing. And there are people who just choose to do it. The reality is that being a man means you're going to be undervalued your whole life, always. Even when you think you're the best, there's going to be someone better. Isn't that crazy? There are some people that have found success so much so that they think they're the best and they're not.

And it leads to consequences. Their lives get ruined. There will always be someone better than you in some way. You will never be the best. So the question is, are you going to wake up and just every day take one more step to improve your life? Or are you going to do nothing? Because that's what it means to be a man. It's to be pushed down in the dirt, spat on, and told you're worthless. And you have to just push through the mud. And I'll tell you this. Final thoughts on the matter, because now I'm just kind of ranting on all this stuff.

The stories I've heard from basic training, I've never gone. I'm not a military guy. Many of you maybe where the guys in basic have to crawl through mud. You don't get to wash your clothes. You just hang them up. You put them on dirty the next day. But the women...

They cry and complain and they get driven back to, you know, back home. A lot of take showers. See, there's a very different reality to being a man and being a woman. And it's fascinating to me that throughout history, men knew this. Women were pampered and taken care of and they'd complain and they want the best. Yeah, that's how it goes. And the men would be scarred, grizzled and chiseled.

And now what's happening? There are guys who are like, it's not fair that women get to do this. Yeah, well, that was always the case. Literally nothing's changed. The only thing that changed is you guys aren't making that decision. I don't, you know, I think it's a willpower thing, I guess. Because I don't think it's a philosophy thing. I don't think it's an emotional thing. It's a willpower thing. Whether I feel good or bad, I'm going to do it.

And you should, too. I hope you guys improve yourselves. I hope you guys improve your lives. I do think there's a tremendous boon and benefit in the support for Trump and the finding of religion. I think religion may reorient some of these men and give them that message they need. But until then, we'll see. I suppose what the issue is, we go through these fourth these four seasons. They call the fourth turning. Eventually, men become unmotivated.

And again, I want to stress this, the difference between emotional motivation and will. There are men who don't have the will to do it. Maybe it's just life is too soft. I don't know. C'est la vie, I guess. You guys do you. I ain't crying about it. I believe that humans will succeed. We will survive and we will persevere as we always do.

It's a slow news day, if you noticed.

We got more segments coming up for you, though, because it must be done. We'll talk about what we want to talk about. I could talk for years. Thanks for hanging out, everybody. And we'll see you on the next segment. Could they have found Noah's Ark? And the bigger story actually is the Adam and Eve conspiracy theory, they call it.

It's all interesting and it's all coming together. According to deep ground penetrating radar scans, these researchers say the structure of this mound is consistent with a biblical description of Noah's Ark. Now, I can already hear my secular friends and liberal viewers saying this is nonsense. There's no Noah's Ark. It's not true. Hold on there. You don't have to always view these things.

through a mystical lens could be viewed through a historical lens. And that's how many on TikTok are taking this. A viral trend that's been going around for a while, but, you know, a few months ago, I believe, states that every 6500 years is a cataclysm on the Earth related to the poles shifting. And when that happens, it triggers a shifting of the planet

a movement of the oceans effectively causing a great flood to sweep over many lands. In which case, perhaps someone could have built a large vessel fearing or predicting that the storm was going to happen and then having survived it. They wrote the story down and it was passed down generations, some thousands of years later. There are many people who believe that is magic and many people who believe that it's fiction, that you shouldn't believe in magic.

Or to those of faith, it could literally be that God flooded the earth and gave a warning to a man to build a ship to preserve certain life. Believe whatever you want. Right now, one of the big trends on social media is this fear over the poles shifting. There have been a series of individuals, I should say there are many individuals, who have covered strange phenomena in our magnetosphere, solar storms, power outages, leading some to conclude that

There may be a pole shift happening. Now, to be completely honest, mainstream news is telling us the poles are shifting. I mean, you can just Google it. Here's one from December. Earth's North Magnetic Pole has officially been repositioned. The fascinating thing was the stories about people flying planes and the data wasn't syncing up because the pole moved. And we use Earth's magnetosphere for instrumentation, for GPS, for our compasses, etc. What if? What if it's not biblical?

In the sense that it's not divine. What if quite literally every 6,500 years and the poles shift, it triggers a flood and a man built a boat? Maybe. Let me read these stories for you and we'll see where we're at. New York Post says, Noah's Ark site fully preserved. Secrets discovered in radar scans by scientists. Not what you'd expect to see. What does that mean? What they actually said is, it is exactly what you'd expect to find if they were a man-made boat.

Why did they why did they title it that way? Call it radars of the lost ark. American researchers claim to have cracked one of the Bibles in doing mysteries after using radar technology to map the possible remains of Noah's Ark is exactly what you'd expect to find if this were a man made boat consistent with the biblical specifications of Noah's Ark. Andrew Jones, an independent researcher, told the Christian Broadcasting Network while revealing the groundbreaking results of his multi-year project. I look at it this way.

You know, I always hear these stories. You ever hear about the myth of the genies and the gins? They'd grant your wishes. Of course, you've seen Aladdin. Let's let's let's look at it from a fantastic point of view. The genie appears before Aladdin and says, hey, pal, what do you want? And he says, I want to be a prince. And then he blinks and then the guy is on a flying carpet and he's got a bunch of elephants and gold statues. That's actually kind of believable. But hold on. What do people think genies are?

Well, it's Jafar who says, I wish to be an all-powerful genie. And then the genie snaps. And then Jafar literally transforms into a genie. To be fair, also, the monkey turns into an elephant. Now, that's mystic. Let me put it this way. If a man, if Jeff Bezos walked up to you and said, tell me what you desire and I will make your wish come true, what would you ask him for? Obviously, you're not going to ask him to turn your monkey into an elephant. He's going to be like, I can't do that.

No, but I can give you a million bucks, a private jet, a yacht. I can put you on a private island. This is the thing. People look back on these stories and for some reason in their minds, they can't separate the modern measured approach to what it would mean versus this mystic journey. So here's what I hear. And I'm not a Christian, so I know some Christians may completely disagree. By all means, feel free to.

When we talk about Noah's Ark and God says, bring two of every animal, we get these liberals being like two of every animal. You mean like two of each species of beetle? There's there's millions of species of beetle. That's not what I hear. I hear there's a guy who's got a farm and someone says a flood is going to come. Make sure you get two of each of each animal. They quite literally mean the animals you have. So this is literally like the way I see it is separate from the mystical, magical ark that carries every species ever existed.

And you're talking about a dude who built a big boat and put two cows, two chickens, two pigs, two goats, two llamas, two alpacas, two camels. Because that's the animals they had. Not that he was getting every single bug ever. That's why I bring up the gin and the genie thing. Because if you go back and you look at some of these myths, what could it have been? The gin...

Maybe they were aliens. I don't know. I don't. But when they're telling you they would grant your wish, they weren't saying they give you magic powers. They're saying they'd build you a house or something, whether it was actually a mystical entity or not. I don't know. It's silly. Anyway, I digress. You've got this big mount and they say Jones works with Noah's Ark scans, which he described as a loose organization of individuals interested in pursuing scientific work promoting the site of the ark.

Jones and his team were attempting to solve the age-old question of whether the legendary vessel is buried in the mountains of eastern Turkey, roughly 18 miles south of Mount Ararat, which the Bible describes as the boat's final resting place. The exact spot is the Durupinar site, a 538-long boat-shaped mound with the same Book of Genesis-described dimensions as the ark said to have saved humanity and animals alike from a catastrophic flood more than 4,300 years ago.

While the idea of this area houses the legendary life raft, an object central to Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, is a topic of dispute. Recent scans appear to indicate that it could be the case. Maybe.

They go to mention what the Bible states about it. They say that Jones used ground penetrating radar to detect what appeared to be a 13 foot tunnel traversing the center of the formation. These same scans captured a trifecta of subterranean layers that were allegedly dead ringers for the Bible's description of the boat's three decks. In other words, it was literally ship shaped. Interesting.

Given the age of the vessel, Jones said he doesn't expect to find anything fully preserved, claiming there'd be remnants. The remains constitute a chemical imprint, pieces of wood and the ground. I mean, sure, it's thousands of years. There's rain. Also uncovered were angular structures situated 20 feet beneath the surface that the team surmises could be the quarters beneath the deck-like surface, making this potentially more than just a geological formation, as many scientists have posited.

This is not what you'd expect to see if the site were simply a solid block of rock or the result of random mudflow debris. Jones said Jones, who felt it matched the biblical specifications of Noah's Ark. Now you can see here all of the animals being loaded onto the ark. You got like lions, horses, cows. And I'm going to go and say like, okay, maybe rabbits,

But and all the birds, all the birds flying in. I mean, birds probably landed on this vessel if there was a flood to survive. But I don't think it needs to be magical. I don't think so. And I think, of course, there are many people who are going to look at this from a biblical perspective and say it's absolute. The flood washed away the earth, killed everything, and the animals were saved on the ark. I say to all of the secular types, it could literally be that a catastrophic flood happened. Take a look at this.

It's from 2023. Adam and Eve theory. Catastrophe as Earth's magnetic poles reverse. Heavens me. They say that every 6,500 years, a disaster on the scale of the biblical flood strikes Earth. They're going to mention, what do we have here? Jimmy Corsetti. And Rogan was talking with, where was he?

blah, blah, blah. Rogan's talking to him. Oh, come on. Joe Rogan was recently sparking this blah, blah, blah. He was having a interview with Jimmy Corsetti. During the conversation, Rogan introduced the Adam and Eve theory, an idea lacking evidence and originating from the Adam and Eve story, a book published in 1965 by Chan Thomas, an electrical engineer who claimed to possess psychic abilities. Yeah, I don't really believe that stuff.

Thomas, formerly associated with blah, blah, blah. We don't care. They go down and say, of course, city elaborates on this idea, arguing that the reversal of the magnetic poles would cause the earth to essentially stand still, leading to unprecedented overheating.

He also mentioned that wind and water would maintain their momentum as winds at the equator move at speeds of approximately 1,609 kilometers an hour. According to the theory, this cataclysmic event would result in extreme weather phenomena, including tsunamis. Corsetti specified the reversal occurs in cycles of 6,500 years with a 90 degree flip, followed by a correction around the seventh day.

Rogan remarked,

Experts categorically refute these claims, labeling them baseless and lacking scientific support. Media Matters for America, a nonprofit organization, reported the theory and excerpts from the interview accumulated over 20 million views on TikTok within six months without addressing its fallacious nature. Martin Malanchik, senior researcher at NASA, said,

at the NASA Research Center, dismiss the theory telling The Verge is totally bogus. If that's what happened every 6,500 years, we would certainly see it. It would be in all the records. The amount of energy to bring that about is tremendous. And you know there's nothing to initiate it. Now, I don't agree with this idea that the polls are going to flip and it's going to cause all these things. I don't know.

What I can say is there are interesting questions around why woolly mammoths have undigested plant matter in their bellies. Honest question. Now, I'm just a layman. I read things on the Internet and complain. So what do I know? The argument from these individuals, these theorists, is that the woolly mammoth was in a temperate climate eating plants. Something happened causing it to freeze very quickly. Where were the plants in these very cold areas where they have uncovered these woolly mammoths?

Interesting. The argument is the mammoths were closer to the equator than the poles flipped. The planet tilted and all of a sudden they were in a very cold place, froze. Major researchers say, yeah, actually, they just fell into water. They fell into cold water. They're woolly because they are mammoths that are in cold places. They fell into cold water and they froze. And that's why the plant matter didn't get digested. Then the question is, where were the plants growing?

In the cold where the water was cold enough for them to freeze so quickly. I don't know. You can give me an answer. I'm not saying I believe in any of this stuff just because of that. But there's interesting questions. Perhaps there is a conspiracy as to why we are not learning about a potential magnetic pole reversal and a planet flipping. Powerful, wealthy billionaires. They're building underground bunkers. Why?

I don't know, because they have money and they can, I guess. To be honest, I'm not even that well off relative to these people. Like, you know, we do well here. I do well, of course. And I don't have an underground bunker, but I do have emergency food, ammo, and water. And, you know, store it underground somewhere. Because it's not that expensive. Now, if I was worth $100 billion, of course I'd build a bunker. Why wouldn't I? So I'm not really moved by this. But there is still an argument. If the powers that be were told, guys...

We're overdue for a magnetic pole shift and the planet could tilt. Antarctica could move to the equator. It's going to shift everything. The first question is, what do we tell the public? You tell them nothing. You think a truck driver transporting goods from San Pedro in California to Nebraska is going to keep doing that if you told them the world's coming to an end? Nope. Some might, most won't. They're going to be with their families and they're going to start digging bunkers and building arcs.

We don't want an economy based off that. So what do you do? If we knew the catastrophe was coming, we would need to create alternative energy sources that can power up anywhere. It would be very important for us to develop solar panels, electric vehicles, wind turbines, geothermal energy that can be deployed after a catastrophe where you don't need transportation lines, roads getting wiped out. How do we get electricity? Wind turbines.

We can put them up. You still need all the concrete, but they can generate energy in seemingly remote locations without access to oil. Electric cars can then be charged off that grid, allowing us the tools to begin to rebuild. Now, of course, we want petroleum-based infrastructure. It's much more efficient. But you need to source the petroleum and transport it. Some areas will still be able to do that with pumps. What about the areas that can't, that get isolated or cut off?

We're going to need solar farms and wind farms. Hey, just so happens they're building a whole bunch of those right now. So I don't know, man. Who am I? Who am I? Interesting nonetheless. That's all I can say. And if the catastrophe does come, I hope you guys are in the mountains. I'm not going to hold my breath, though. Everybody's always prophesizing the end of days. And here we are. You know what I mean?

We have an optimism bias. We have a normalcy bias. I think the chances of this really happening are astronomical. I think the chances of that being Noah's Ark are also astronomical, but who knows? Who knows? It's fun to think about, though. I'll leave it there. Smash the like button. Share the show with everyone you know. Follow me on X and Instagram at TimCast. Thanks for hanging out, and we will see you all in the next segment.

Democrats are on high alert. Minnesota is preparing for potential riots as rumors have begun to circulate that Donald Trump will pardon Derek Chauvin. I'm not sure I think it's actually going to happen, but this is the story that's being reported on numerous outlets. Most importantly, Minnesota and Minneapolis are taking this very seriously. Personally, I think Donald Trump should pardon Derek Chauvin on the merits. Some have argued that

We've had these conversations that Trump shouldn't do it. And the reason is it's political death. It's going to be really bad for the Donald Trump administration if he pardons a guy largely perceived by the black community as having just killed an innocent unarmed black man, whether it's true or not. And so I think it was a hotep Jesus who was on Tim Castarello said, listen, knock down a wall in the prison, give Chauvin a double wide, bring in some beautiful women and say, this is your life for now, but we're going to make it comfortable. Me?

I don't know that I take the utilitarian approach and probably would take more of a deontological approach. Derek Chauvin should not be in prison. And I've got the facts and the details to break down why. Now, several months ago, Ben Shapiro came out and called for the pardon of Derek Chauvin at the federal level by the Trump administration.

Many people thought this was a terrible idea. Why would you bring this up now? Chauvin's not even in the news, but Ben is correct. You don't kind of like the guy, but he's right. Chauvin should not be in jail. And let me show you all the details. Let me keep it simple as we get started. Chauvin arrived after the fact. Chauvin arrived with George Floyd already having a resisted arrest, being on the ground and restrained. And he engaged in a practice that Minneapolis police had trained police to do.

Now, one can make the argument that Chauvin applied it incorrectly and he did bad, exhibited poor judgment. And you can hold the police department, in my opinion, responsible for this. The issue here is one, George Floyd did have a lethal level of fentanyl in his system. And I've got the facts to back that up and prove it. I'll show you. The argument is the system is broken.

And I believe the reason that all of the other officers, as well as Chauvin, were convicted was because the police department did not want to take responsibility for a practice that they believe. Well, I don't think they thought it was wrong. I think the people didn't like it and they didn't want to accept responsibility. So they made Chauvin their martyr.

Chauvin was then criminally charged at the federal level and while in federal prison was stabbed 22 times. I'm going to break this story down for you. The story of George Floyd is a tragedy. It is. But we're talking about a man that was chewing on what's called a speedball, meth and fentanyl behind the wheel of a car.

They claim he was only stopped because he tried to use a counterfeit 20. The police found him behind the wheel of a car with drugs and he spat the speedball out in the back of his car. They found it. They found the drugs in his system. He resisted arrest. The police were authorized to use a taser on George Floyd. Again, I got the proof to back it up.

We tracked all of this. Why this man went to prison is obvious. It was political and people aren't accepting it these days. Before we get started, my friends, shout out to Steven Crowder and the Mug Club for shouting us out. Welcome to the Rumble morning lineup. Of course, it's actually noon.

Look, I just me and the fam, we just put in a little pond on the property and we have been sad to see that the frogs have not come to a turtle showed up. And that was really cool. And the issue is obvious. We need plants for the animals to hide in and to make shade. I built this cool little canopy thing. It's not convincing the frogs, the turtles to come and hang out.

So we're actually on fast-growing trees looking for a variety of plants to put around this new pond. I got to be honest, I ain't going to a nursery on a Saturday to try and pick up one of these plants. No, we're ordering from fast-growing trees. Seriously, we are.

Here's the news, ladies and gentlemen. It's a coming Minneapolis and state leaders prepare for possible Derek Chauvin pardon. This story, of course, dropping last night at 11 p.m. Multiple sources told Eyewitness News that Governor Tim Walz and the Minnesota National Guard Mayor Jacob Frey, Hennepin County Sheriff DeJuanawit have all been briefed on preparations for possible civil unrest.

If President Trump pardons former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for his federal conviction of killing George Floyd. Full stop. Trump's going to do it. I think they're playing games here. I think they put out this statement because they're trying to attack attack Trump.

Ben Shapiro kicked this whole thing off. Now, to be fair, it wasn't just Ben, but there's a lot of personalities that have consistently called for the pardoning at the federal level of Derek Chauvin. I mean, he should get a full pardon across the board. State level, it's not going to happen. They're Democrats. Donald Trump could pardon the federal charges. We could see what happens. More importantly, Harmeet Dhillon could bring about civil rights claims against

against Minnesota at the state level for violating the rights of Derek Chauvin, which they did. And I can prove it with a statement from the judge. I got it all pulled up, my friends. He outright said there will be no fairer trial anywhere in this state. I'm not kidding. And they still played this game with jurors being brought to the court under armed guard, razor wire fences and riots. That was not a fair trial.

But I digress. I don't think Trump's going to. Maybe he will. And maybe the reason that they're actually prepping for this is because they've Trump has indicated he wants to make this move. Maybe the reason Ben Shapiro came out and made this statement is that he knows something we don't. Indeed, when asked by White House reporters in March about pardoning Chauvin, President Trump said, no, I have not heard about that.

Sources also told KSTP the Minnesota Department of Corrections is ready to pick up Chauvin at a federal penitentiary in Arizona and bring him back to Oak Park Heights Prison in Minnesota to serve the remainder of his 22 and a half year sentence. Over the weekend, Attorney General Ellison told MSNBC that Chauvin will not be set free. He still owes Minnesota 22 and a half years, and he's going to do it in either Minnesota or somewhere. But he's not getting out, said Ellison.

Then on Monday, when asked about the possibility of a pardon, Governor Walz told reporters no indication whether they're going to do it or not. But I think it behooves us to be prepared for it. With this presidency, it seems like something they would do.

Sources also said that the city of Minneapolis is almost certain that next week the U.S. DOJ will file a petition with the court to end the consent decree over reform at MPD. If that happens, sources said the city would file a brief challenging the DOJ's filing, and it could then take up to six weeks to get a ruling for the judge. As many of you may or may not be aware, Harmeet Dhillon, let me let me I want to make sure I get her title proper.

Because she's heading up civil rights with the AG. So, Harmeet Dhillon, American lawyer and Republican Party official serving as the U.S. Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division. Amazing. Let's pull this up and learn a little bit about what she can do. The Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice enforces federal statutes prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, sex, disability, religion, and national origin. The division was established on December 9, 1957. Blah, blah, blah. We get it. We understand.

I believe she could, but I don't think they're going to. I'm just saying it is within the possibility. I'm not so sure it's going to happen. I don't know why the Trump administration would want to sacrifice any political capital they may need over Derek Chauvin. And that's the sad reality. If it were me, I'd do it. Yeah, I know most of you would, too. Maybe it's because we're political brutes, I guess.

You know, I seriously think, tell me if I'm wrong, you guys in the chat, in the comments. I think 90 plus percent of you guys who watch this channel, I instantly upon getting in office would pardon Derek Chauvin. Now to be fair, maybe not instantly because I'd want a strategy, but I wouldn't, I would come out and outright say, it's not a trolley problem. I'm not playing games. A man who should not be in prison will not be in prison for one day longer. Pardon and pardon.

I'm a crazy person. I wouldn't let them take him to Minnesota. I wouldn't do it. He's in Arizona. I'd say the man will not be brought to Minnesota. It's not happening. Goodbye. So I don't know how much the president can actually do in those regards, but that's the kind of thing that I think should happen. I believe that there is a right. There is a truth. And you know what I really do not like? What I what I really do not like about all of this stuff that's that we see in this country is politics over justice.

Do you agree with me that there is a truth? Most of you will say yes. Insane people would. And then Derek Chauvin should not be in prison. OK, so then we let him go. But hold on. Half the country is going to lose their mind and claim you're doing evil things. Don't care. I don't care. I do not take action based on what other people falsely believe. And I don't think I think very few people actually engage in these behaviors. And that being said, I don't think Donald Trump would pardon this guy.

Now, currently right now, there are wildfires burning in Minnesota, 20,000 acres. I think this story has not been picked up far and wide. But as of right now, the National Guard has been deployed to assist with these massive wildfires. I think this is very important in the context because, you know, they're warning the National Guard and the sheriffs and the police like, hey, get ready. If Trump pardons this guy right now with this stuff going on, they're not ready for any kind of riot, though I think riots are entirely possible.

Here's where it gets really brutal. November 21st, 2024, inmate charged with stabbing Derek Chauvin 22 times has trial set for 2025. Derek Chauvin was stabbed 22 times in the law library at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, Arizona, with an improvised knife, federal prosecutors said.

Chauvin was hospitalized following the attack, but released from the hospital days later. He is serving a 21 year sentence in federal prison for violating George Floyd's civil rights. The time is being served concurrently with Chauvin's murder conviction in state court. Chauvin was transferred to a federal prison in Texas about nine months after the stabbing, according to the AP. He is now housed in the Federal Correction Institution in Big Spring, which is a low security prison. Chauvin was the officer seen kneeling on Floyd's neck for minutes, even after Floyd passed out.

His officers arrested him for allegedly passing a counterfeit $20 bill at Cup Foods in Minneapolis. So they say, I'd like to add, the man was chewing on a speedball behind the wheel of a car, spat it into the backseat. They found it. So they were arresting him. He resisted arrest, demanded personally to be placed on the ground. His words, Chauvin arrived after the fact to see a man who was being restrained. And then he used an MPD gun.

authorized and trained restraint on Chauvin. Now, the argument after the fact is that Floyd became unresponsive and Chauvin should have then applied medical treatment. If the argument then is that this man, Chauvin, was negligent in his duties, what does he get? A few years in prison? Or he gets fired, a suspended sentence, house arrest for several years, probation? Listen,

I don't want anybody to die. George Floyd was not a saint. It's still sad that he died. But this was never a story about a police officer who maliciously murdered a black man. It's a story about, at worst, a cop who under his training was stupid and negligent. That's the worst case scenario. In which case, maybe you'd want to charge him with, I don't know, negligence. And he'd be sentenced to two years for which...

He'd be out already. And then the left argues that cops never get held to account. This is not that case. The other officers involved who did not kneel on George Floyd and did nothing also went to prison. Why? Negligence. That's what they claimed. Aiding and abetting a homicide is what they're actually claiming. Let me show you. We'll break it all down. Take a look at this story from NPR. Judge in Chauvin trial denies request to move trial out of Minneapolis. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Minneapolis, where riders were burning everything down. And the judge said, nah, nah, you try him here. That's ludicrous. Here's what the judge said. Quote, I do not think that would give the defendant any kind of a fair trial beyond what we are doing here today. I don't think there's any place in the state of Minnesota that has not been subjected to extreme amounts of publicity in this case.

Cahill also denied a defense motion to delay the proceedings, saying that Chauvin's trial will surely attract media attention no matter what it takes, when it takes place. The case is being closely watched, watched closely, having sparked a national debate on racial injustice and police brutality. Chauvin is white. Floyd was black. You know what really bothers me? The Ahmaud Arbery case. Conservatives and disaffected liberals all came out and clapped and cheered and said, see, see, the McMichaels and William Bryan are going to prison. We are not racist.

Even though the Ahmaud Arbery case was also a travesty of justice and it shouldn't have gone down the way it did. Once again, maybe you want to argue this. The McMichaels, for those that are familiar with the story, pursued a man who was suspected of burglarizing a property. He was several guns had been stolen from vehicles. There was a guy constantly seen in the neighborhood who didn't live there. He was seen entering a home on multiple occasions that he did not own. It was under construction, but it was still enclosed.

Though he didn't take anything, they believed this guy may be the guy. Why? Because the police went around with this picture asking for information on him. Now, the McMichaels were told not to pursue. OK, they should not have. And this led to a scuffle where because they cut off Arbery and he was enclosed by Brian, Arbery attacked and it resulted in his death.

The McMichaels should not have gone to prison for life and William Bryan either. Now, some have argued Bryan, of all people, probably should because he admitted to actually trying to block the guy in. Either way, it's a story where this man was believed to have committed a felony for which, according to the law, it is vague. They may have had the right to try and pursue a man they believed committed a felony. Instead, all these conservatives come out being like, yay,

That was never the case. This dude was they said he was jogging in this neighborhood as if anyone believes that you're jogging and you go into someone else's property. But I digress. When the George Floyd case happened and Chauvin was being charged, many conservatives came out and said, it's a travesty. It's bad. I can't believe this happened. Now, my view was very much in line with what many people believed. I'm not going to cut myself any extra bonuses or slack. When I saw the initial video,

Of George Floyd being kneeled on, on the neck. I was shocked. And that's why many people were. It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Why are you kneeling on that guy like that? Get up like he's dying. And then came the leaks. The full body camera footage showing exactly what happened. Chauvin wasn't even there. Did you know that? Floyd was already on the ground, subdued. Chauvin showed up later, not knowing what was going on.

And began to use what he was trained with, his practices. Now, by all means, if you want to argue that he should have stopped and should have done something or otherwise, and it was negligent. Okay, let's have that conversation. Let that be the charge. But they didn't. They said he was a racist who killed a black man. Take a look at this. Court asked to void verdict against ex-cop in Floyd's murder. An attorney for Derek Chauvin asked an appeals court on Wednesday. And mind you, this is January of 23rd.

Yep.

Now, I got a question for y'alls. What do you think happens when I ask our good friend Chet GPT if that constitutes a fair trial? Well, I'm going to show you. They say Neil Kedio, special attorney for the state, said Chauvin got one of the most transparent and thorough trials in our nation's history. Chauvin's many arguments before this court do not come close to justifying a reversal.

It's why I could never be a lawyer. I could never be a lawyer. I'd be like, you know, I understand everybody's entitled to a criminal defense and the state is entitled to their arguments as well. But if I worked for the state as a prosecutor and this case came before me, I would I just walk into judge and be like, let him go. Seriously. Well, here we go. Let's let's talk with our good friend, ChatGPT, about exactly what happened on that day.

You're going to love this. I will show you the questions I asked and the responses I received so you will understand and you can make a determination as to whether or not I am biased. Did George Floyd have a lethal level of fentanyl in his system when he died? It's a question I asked.

GPT response George Floyd's toxicology report indicated a fentanyl concentration of 11 nanograms per milliliter in his blood. Well, this level can be considered high. Determining a lethal dose of fentanyl is complex and varies based on individual factors such as tolerance, body weight, and overall health. In some instances, individuals have succumbed to fentanyl overdoses at lower concentrations, while others have survived higher levels. George Floyd had 11 nanograms per milliliter in his blood.

Dr. Andrew Baker, the chief medical examiner of Hennepin County, noted that if Floyd had been found deceased without any other contributing factors, the fentanyl level might suggest an overdose. However, in Floyd's case, Dr. Baker concluded the primary cause of death was cardiopulmonary arrest, complicating law enforcement, subdual restraint, and neck compression, classifying it as a homicide. He emphasized that while fentanyl and methamphetamine were present in Floyd's system, they were contributing factors and not the direct cause of death.

Indeed, he stated if they found George Floyd in a room just dead, they'd have called it a fentanyl overdose. During the trial trial, a former officer, Derek Chauvin, multiple medical experts corroborated the assessment. For instance, Dr. Martin Tobin, a pulmonologist, testified that Floyd died from a lack of oxygen due to the manner of restraint, not from a drug overdose. Similarly, forensic pathologist Dr. Lindsay Thomas stated there was no evidence to suggest Floyd would have died the night absent the police restraint.

In summary, while George Floyd had a significant level of fentanyl in his system, medical examinations and expert testimonies concluded that his death resulted from a combined efforts of police restraint and underlying health conditions with drug presence being a contributing but not sole factor. Here's what I love. There's more. Just wait. I didn't ask it how George Floyd died. I just asked if he had fentanyl in his system. Did he have a lethal level of fentanyl in his system? Why then did it go on and on about? No, no, no. It didn't kill him. It didn't. I didn't ask you that. The simple answer is yes.

Next question. I said, what is a typical fentanyl overdose level? Chad GPT says a typical fentanyl overdose level is often cited being around three nanograms per milliliter or higher in the blood. Let's try that one again. Chad GPT says a fatal fentanyl overdose level is often cited as being around three nanograms per milliliter or higher.

George Floyd had 11 nanograms per milliliter. So when I asked you if he had a lethal level, you could have responded with, yes, the amount of fentanyl in George Floyd's system is typically associated with overdose levels at three times the average rate for an overdose. However, you can then say whatever you want. ChatGPT, we love how fried your brain is. But don't worry. All I'm doing is asking these questions.

I didn't tell it what to say. It said what it said. Here's what I here's what I asked. You're going to love this one. When Derek Chauvin arrived on scene, was George Floyd already on the ground? Well, as I already said in this video, you guys know, of course, of course he was. George Floyd's already on the ground. Listen to this. When Derek Chauvin arrived on scene on May 25th, 2020, George Floyd was not yet on the ground. Heaven's me. I guess Tim Pool was wrong, right? Let me read on.

At that point, officers Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kung had already approached Floyd, who was seated in a vehicle, and handcuffed him. They attempted to place him in the back of a police car, but Floyd resisted, expressing anxiety and stating he was claustrophobic. During the struggle, Floyd fell to the ground while still handcuffed. Chauvin and Officer To Thao arrived shortly thereafter. Wait a minute! Chauvin joined the effort to restrain Floyd, ultimately kneeling at his neck, while Floyd was lying face down on the pavement.

This restraint continued for over nine minutes, during which Floyd repeatedly stated that he could not breathe. The incident was captured on video and led to widespread protests and call for police reform. Hold on there a gosh darn minute. When Chauvin arrived on scene, Floyd was not yet on the ground. Floyd fell to the ground. Chauvin and Officer Tao arrived shortly thereafter. OK, here's my response. I'm confused. Your statement starts by saying Floyd wasn't on the ground when Chauvin arrived, but then saying he fell on the ground after and after Chauvin arrived, which is it?

You're right to be confused. Let me clarify. When Derek Chauvin arrived at the scene, George Floyd was already on the ground. Officer Langenkog approached Floyd in his car and handcuffed him. He was chewing on a speedball. That's methamphetamines and fentanyl combined. They tried to place him in the squad car, but he resisted, saying he was claustrophobic. During the struggle, before Chauvin arrived, Floyd ended up on the ground face down. Chauvin arrived shortly after Floyd was already on the ground and proceeded to help restrain him by kneeling on his neck.

I then asked, did MPD provide training on the use of neck restraints using the knee? Heavens me. Look at all of these images it provides. Yes, the Minneapolis Police Department did provide training on neck restraints, including techniques involving the use of a knee. According to MPD's use of force policy in effect at the time, neck restraints were defined as a non-deadly force option involving compression of one or more both one or both sides of a person's neck arm with an arm or a leg.

Okay, they are in handcuffs. Now what?

The accompanying techs advise officers to place subject in the recovery position and alleviate positional asphyxia and to call emergency services once the suspect is in handcuffs. However, during the trial of Derek Chauvin, MPD's use of force trainer Lieutenant Johnny Mercer testified that while neck restraints were part of the training, the specific technique of placing a knee on the neck was not taught as a standard practice. Don't know, don't care. It was part of their training protocol. Again, if you want to argue that Chauvin did wrong by not providing the recovery position,

I'm willing to listen. But the charges at the federal level and what they brought against him was that he killed a black man intentionally because he was black. That's the civil rights claim. There's more. I asked it. Based on the resistance that George Floyd exhibited, would the use of a taser be consistent with MPD protocol?

The Minneapolis Police Department had specific guidelines given the use of tasers, particularly in situations involving resistance during arrests. According to MPD's use of force policy, effective as of August 21st, 2020, the deployment of a taser was considered appropriate when a subject was actively resisting or exhibiting aggressive behavior.

That posed a threat to officers or others. The policy emphasized the use of a taser should be proportional to the subject's behavior and the threat level. In the case of George Floyd, body camera footage and witness accounts indicate that while he was initially resistant to being placed in the squad car, he was already handcuffed on the ground when Chauvin arrived on scene. At that point, Floyd was not actively resisting in a manner that would typically warrant the use of a taser under MPD policy. My response, I did not ask about Chauvin. I asked about the resistance.

Under Minneapolis MPD policy at the time, a taser could be used on a subject actively resisting arrest, which George Floyd did during the attempt to place him in the squad car. That is, before Chauvin arrived, they could have struck him with a taser and electrocuted him. They didn't. Chauvin used a restraint that he was trained to use, and the arguments against

is largely that he did not provide medical treatment when George Floyd became unresponsive. Now, I have a simple argument. If you're talking about beyond a reasonable doubt, I've got some problems here. Why was the officer who held back the crowd arrested? I don't have too much time because we are going to be joined by Viva Frey in a moment. Basically, they said he was holding the crowd back and he should have intervened.

He was able, I asked, was he able to see both the crowd and Floyd at the same time? I said, yes, he was. That's actually part of why he was convicted. He could see that Floyd was restraining this man and the crowd. I say that's ridiculous. Ridiculous. Toe Thao, Thao, however you pronounce his name, has to keep an eye on all of these people in front of him who could attack him and the other cops. In what sane reality does it make sense that an officer is going to allow people to intervene? I think I asked that question. I didn't ask it. I thought I did ask if, oh, here we are.

Are police trained to allow bystanders to intervene in the arrests? Because they argued he should have. No, they're not. My friends, there are many other officers involved. To Thao, Jay Alexander Kung and Thomas Lane all went to jail. It's political.
