Donald Trump is said to have approved a strike plan on Iran.
He is now weighing whether or not to intervene militaristically. As Iran says, the battle begins. And over on Fox News. Wow. Fox News. You know, I've got some crude things to say, but we'll keep it family friendly. Let's just say Fox News really enjoys every time a really bad thing happens in war. And it's not just Fox. They all do. But Fox could not call for war more often.
It's now being reported that Iran launched a missile of many, one of which has struck a hospital. Now, this is serious, and people are rightly pissed. Fox News asked the questions, will this finally be enough to get the U.S. to intervene in the war? Listen.
Israel launched an attack, a preemptive strike on Iran. Iran is retaliating. Right now, the war is confined to these two entities. We as allies of Israel have been defending them, but have not formally entered. I don't see why we would now. They're tugging at your heartstrings. I don't think we should. But my friends, it is lining up. The Strait of Hormuz is already being obstructed. And I think what's going to happen is
Because of our Saudi partners, you've got Bahrain, you've got Qatar, you've
The U.S. is not going to tolerate the suspension of shipping because Iran shuts down the Strait of Hormuz, which is already being disrupted, not completely shuttered. Iran is allegedly threatening to shut it down because they know it's a power move that will force the hand of the United States. Now, the question is, does Iran really want this war to escalate to U.S. involvement or will they come to the White House for a conversation to end the conflict? That may be the case.
Because if Iran does come to the negotiating table and says, we give, Israel's got no choice but to knock it off. But we'll see. NBC News is reporting. They say, excuse me, Israel strikes Iran's Iraq heavy water reactor.
Israel's attacked Iran's Iraq heavy water reactor. The report said there was no radiation danger whatsoever. Israel had warned earlier Thursday that it would attack the facility and urged the public to flee the area. The warning on X included a satellite image of the plant and a red circle like other warnings that preceded strikes. The Israeli military said Thursday's rounds of airstrikes targeted Tehran and other areas of Iran without elaborating.
It later said that Iran fired a new salvo of missiles at Israel. They told the public to take shelter. BBC, of course, reporting Trump has approved an attack plan. He is waiting on the final decision. And now we have this, the hospital. Fox News reporting Netanyahu declares Israel will exact the full price after Iranian strike hits hospital in Israel. President Donald Trump has not ruled out the possibility of the U.S. striking Iran.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared in a post on X that Israel will exact the full price from the tyrants in Tehran after a missile hit a hospital in the Jewish state, saying this morning Iran's terrorist tyrants launched missiles at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba and at a civilian population in the center of the country. Significant damage to the largest hospital in southern Israel.
Fox News' Channel chief foreign correspondent Trey Yinkst noted in a post on X, it took a direct hit from the Iranian ballistic missile. Israel, a close ally of the U.S. Who doesn't know that? Why would you include that, Fox? Noted, the Iranian regime targeted Siroka Hospital in Beersheba with a ballistic missile, hitting a major medical center. We will not stand by. We will continue doing what must be done.
And here we can see we've got some video. Let's let's pull this up. And my friends, the conspiracy theories have begun. Here's here's the. Now we can see it's not a graphic video. It's just people running and there's debris. But some people are pointing out, whoa, whoa, wait a minute. How come the glass ain't broke? If a missile really struck the building and the glass popped out and flew under the floor, why isn't it broken?
Mm hmm. Which is like it's such a silly thing to say, guys, let me ask you a different question. If you actually thought that Israel false flagged itself and bombed or staged a bombing, why wouldn't they just hit the glass with a hammer? Is the is the argument that they made a mistake, that Mossad bombed their own hospital, but accident or faked it and forgot to break a piece of glass? No, the reality is it's probably plastic and it popped out of the frame.
It can be what people a bunch of people are pointing this out, plexiglass or some kind of plastic, not glass or a strong tempered glass that gets knocked down in the side of the building because of the, you know, the strike was somewhere else in it. The vibrations knock it out of its frame. Who knows? But I think it's silly that that people are actually pushing this stuff.
So we have this from Trey Yankst. He says, video I took inside the hospital lobby. Lots of conspiracy theories circulating online. The hospital was hit. The truth is important. I know Trey. He's legit. He's on the ground. Look, if you want to argue that Israel's staging things, fine, I guess. But Trey is going to be there and he is going to film what's going on and he's going to show you what is actually happening. I trust that. Here you can see video.
Broken glass everywhere. Ceiling panels all knocked out. There's always going to be some excuse, right? Now they're going to say something like, well, it was, you know, Israel put a bomb. Guys, there's a war going on. We know the missiles are hitting Israel. I don't understand why there needs to be any conspiracy theories.
Adam on access glass on the floor is intact. A direct hit would have caused the glass to shatter. That's just wrong. Like, it's just crazy. It's just crazy. But this is what I actually I talked to people about this about simple IQ test. I always say to people like this actually example is if I took my phone right now, if you took it and you hooked it as hard as you can at this window behind me, what would happen? And, you know, there's a right and a wrong answer.
And it's not necessarily just about how smart you are. Most people say like, but the window would break. I'm like, would it? What kind of window is it? These windows are not going to break. The windows that we got, they're not going to break from throwing a phone at it. Sorry, it's just not going to happen. Maybe if you had a large rock, I think a bullet would go through it. But I'm pretty sure with the windows that we got, if you shot it, it wouldn't shatter. It would, the bullet would punch a hole through it. So this is the way that modern windows are designed. But that's not the point. The point is,
Tons of things can happen when you throw something out a window, right? It's not a guaranteed one thing. There are many windows that are broken and shattered. And this one, and it's funny because this is a better example. This actually looks shattered.
This window that he highlighted, it looks like safety glass. And anybody who has a safety glass knows that when it shatters, it spiderwebs but stays intact. And it looks cloudy as if it's spiderwebbed. This right here doesn't. But many people are pointing out that it could be plastic. Someone says it could be Perspex. What is that? Perspex. I don't know what that is.
Perspex. It's a material used called polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA. It's used, it's an acrylic glass. It's often referred to as plexiglass. Oh, okay. There you go. It could be plexiglass. Now, I mean, we've had plexiglass for a long time. Everybody knows about that. So look, I don't know for sure. Okay. But I don't know why you'd make an assumption as to otherwise.
OSINT defender says, according to a report from Axios, U.S. President Trump is said to have doubts about whether the U.S. Air Force's GBU-57A BMOP, Massive Ordnance Penetrator,
would actually be able to reach and destroy the Fordow fuel enrichment plant, Iran's primary facility for enriching weapons-grade uranium, which is believed to be up to 90 meters deep inside a mountain near the city of Qom in northern Iran. Trump is said to have specifically asked his military's advisors about the last few days about whether the 30,000-pound bunker buster would be capable of destroying the Fordow nuclear facility, with defense officials telling the president they are confident it would.
Though it's not known if President Trump was convinced, quote, the bunker buster will work. It's not a capabilities issue. We have the capability, but there's an entire plan for a possible attack. It's not just drop a bunker buster and declare victory. Now, here's what gets crazy. Israeli officials believe the U.S. will eventually join the war and assist with the destruction of the Fort O facility, but contend they could cause significant damage to the underground complex, even if forced to go alone.
One option would be a commando raid against the Fordoff facility by Israeli special forces, similar to the operation seen last September, where Israelis, Israeli forces raided and destroyed an underground missile factory to the north of Syria in the capital of Damascus. A U.S. official said the Israelis told the Trump admin that while they may not be able to reach deep enough into the mountain with bombs, they may do it with humans. I don't buy it.
I don't think that's going to happen. You know, you're not just going to send a commando raid in. And especially if the intel is out there and Iran's preparing for this. A bunker buster is an advanced five million dollar bomb. It's going to decimate this mountain complex. Maybe it won't take one. Maybe the plan of attack is going to be more than just a single bunker buster. Most likely many of them.
But if you're going to send in commandos, how do you land the commandos? Iran, I mean, maybe if you just blast the hell out of the region and then have the Israelis run in after the fact, they still have to go deep underground. How many personnel are going to be in there? It's like, I think it's an absurdity. I don't think it's going to be happening. I don't. With a real fear. Iran is threatening to shut down the Strait of Hormuz. I don't know that they would do this. I don't know that they would do this intentionally, but it's happening.
Take a look at this from the Financial Times. Tanker rates double as ship owners steer clear of the Strait of Hormuz. Let's jump to Google Earth so I can show you where we're currently at. Here's the Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and of course Iran.
The Strait of Hormuz connects the Gulf of Oman to the Persian Gulf. This means that if you're trying to ship oil, energy or any other kind of materials into or out of these regions, particularly with Kuwait, Bahrain or Qatar, you must go through the Strait of Hormuz. Now, that's bad news for Qatar. Bad, bad news. Trump met with these countries. And I wonder if this was part of the agenda that, look, there's going to be a conflict between
And Iran controls the majority coastline of the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, as well as the Strait of Hormuz. Although the Emirates and Oman, actually, I believe it's just the Emirates. But to be fair, Oman does have a decent amount of access to the Emirates controls Oman.
a large portion into the Strait of Hormuz. So right here, we can see this. You got to come through this stretch and you're going to be wrapping through a lot of Iranian territory. Qatar's not going to be happy about this. They're much, much, much, much, much smaller than Iran, but they are very wealthy and they're going to be pissed saying we got oil and we don't want to get cut off from the world and have our economy destroyed by what Iran might do. And you know what? They're doing it.
Already, as we mentioned, tanker rates are doubling. Check this out. Tankers reportedly ablaze near the Strait of Hormuz as of two days ago. From Reuters, oil tankers near Iran appear to be in rural Russia as signals are jammed. Sky News. UAE says navigational error caused oil tankers to collide in the Strait of Hormuz. Electronic interference has disrupted navigation systems since the war began. So they may not have shut it down yet.
But they are effectively, excuse me, shutting it down. This is a problem for the world, largely for the region. But there are a lot of people that rely on energy that is being outsourced from the Persian Gulf. What do you think the U.S. will do?
The United States is the world police, particularly on the oceans, the high seas. The U.S. secures trade lines. That's the point. If you're a nation, this is the liberal economic order at play. If you're a nation and you want to export goods and you want to be rich, you need safe passage. No pirates, no obstruction. The U.S. says we will police the high seas. That's why we have something like 20 aircraft carriers. It's nuts. Our Navy is massive.
Now, what happens when the high seas are disrupted? That's why the U.S. bombed the Houthi rebels, because they were causing problems in the Red Sea. Check this out. In the Red Sea, the Houthi rebels down here were bombing tankers that were trying to come in, and the U.S. said, we ain't having that. Despite the fact only around 3%, I believe it is, that U.S. trade goes through the Red Sea, you have this entire region. I mean, Europe, even Russia, they all go through the Mediterranean Sea.
into the Suez Canal and they make their way into the Red Sea where they can transport goods to the other side of the planet without having to wrap around South Africa. So when the Houthi rebels said we're shutting this down, Trump said, nah, and he's going to blow them up. Now, me, I get asked by these liberals, did you vote for this, Tim? Did you vote for war? We've yet to see what Trump will do. What I can tell you is I'm a reformer, not a revolutionary.
I talked to Seb Gorky, he says, we will not have regime change war, but we will have surgical strikes. And I said, OK, Houthi rebels are bombing international trade routes. I'd prefer not to be involved and not be the world police. The neocons want full scale invasion and occupation. We can settle on stopping one small group of people with a couple of strikes. Donald Trump increased drone strikes in the Middle East, but he was pulling U.S. personnel back.
So it's a slight net positive. It's not perfect. I'm not going to sit here and scream in demand for revolution overnight. I'm going to say do better every day. That's the ethos. The bigger concern here is if we get dragged into trying to secure the Strait of Hormuz, we will be attacked. We will get drawn into this war. And that should not be the case. Here's my hope. Trump is playing the big ask.
Trump is going to say we may enter the war. We've got an attack plan. Get ready the ships. He wants Iran to see all the planes coming in. And then and then when they're like, no, don't bomb us. Trump says, then we want to see Fordo dismantled. It's a big ask. Wiggle the big stick and then say, I hope that's the play. I would not be surprised if we get drawn out into this war.
And so I say this to these liberals. They're like, did you vote for this? I got the do do wars. That was the principal issue for me. No new wars. Trump.
Trump has done a lot of other good things. I'd say if we get drawn into a war with Iran, I'd consider Trump to be a net negative presidency in a second term, but only by a little bit because the things he's done domestically have still been tremendous. Securing the border, massive deportations, massive USAID cut, all that stuff. So good. So good.
But I'm going to say it and I got no problem saying it. A U.S. intervention in Iran would be a tremendous negative for this country. And so let me just put it this way. Even if that were the case, he'd still be the best president of my lifetime because the other presidents were such trash. Barack Obama and his what, seven wars. So if we get one, I'll say one's better than seven. And but, you know, I'll tell you this.
Not if there's hard intervention. Not if there's hard intervention. If boots go on the ground in Iran, that will sully Trump's legacy and it will be a disgrace. There should be, I mean, to be fair, it would sully his legacy if he strikes Iran at all. At all. But it is what it is. You know, we can't control everything. I'm going to wrap up there, my friend. Stay tuned. Smash the like button. Share the show with everyone, you know. More segments to come and we'll see you all in a little bit.
The WNBA is cringe. I didn't think it could get any cringier.
But it certainly has. See, Kaitlyn Clark, the star celebrity, probably the most famous WNBA player ever, just gets mercilessly beaten every time she goes on the court. Okay, not literally every time, but videos of professional WNBA player Kaitlyn Clark getting body checked or slapped or fouled have become so common that someone like me is now talking about it. And it's not so much, my friends, that I care to talk about sports or the WNBA.
But to talk to you about the attention economy and where we currently are, the WNBA, in my opinion, is leaning into this. They like it because it generates attention for the WNBA, which is what they desperately need. Now, there's a lot of opinions as to what is currently going on with why she's getting mercilessly beaten. And they're all funny.
The common comments that we see online are that women are jealous. And so it's hen pecking. Anybody knows chickens? Basically, all the chickens peck at each other until one chicken is called a super chicken. The alpha hen, the dominant bird. Now, the roosters largely stay out of it. They watch and let them do their thing.
That's what it is. I've seen comments where people say, you go to Indiana and the stadium is packed. Everybody's or the arena. Like everybody's watching Caitlin Clark. She's a celebrity. They all show up. But then you go play somewhere else and there's nobody. So you're a run-of-the-mill WNBA player who commands a whopping $60,000 a year. And I guess you're angry. Caitlin Clark is wealthy and famous and successful. And why? Why?
Here's a story from CNN from the other day. Caitlin Clark poked in eye and bumped to ground. OK, she was hit in the eye and body checked. OK, CNN as fever reached Commissioner's Cup final after chippy win over son. I have no idea what the back half of that title means because I don't know anything about WNBA. To be fair, I barely know anything about the NBA as it is.
So blah, blah, blah. They say the main talking point came in the third quarter when Sun Guard J.C. Sheldon jabbed fever superstar Caitlin Clark in the eye while she was defending her. Clark then turned around and was bumped again by Sheldon before pushing her away. Connecticut's Marina Mabry then came charging into the scuffle and bumped Clark hard to the ground. It's called a body check. OK, OK.
Mabry wasn't dejected, but instead received a technical foul along with Clark and Sheldon, who was also given a flagrant one. This is insane. After the game, Fever head coach Stephanie White said there wasn't an explanation for the tech.
That Clark received. I think it was pretty obvious that stuff was brewing when the officials don't get control of the ball game, when they allow that stuff to happen. And it's been happening all season long. It's just not the game. Blah, blah, blah. Holy crap. OK, we played the video before. Let's play the video again. Here you go. Here's here's the video. Watch when Caitlin Clark is trying to create some space. It looked like she just got hit in the eye there. She got shoved to the ground. Can we just like here's here's you can see the lady in the white.
She puts her hands up. She straight up just shoves Kaylin Clark to the ground. Oh, women.
I guess I saw a video the other day where there are two basketball players. This one also went viral. It was a high school basketball team, I think. And it was dudes and white guy shoots for a three pointer. Nothing but net. And then a black dude runs up and just boom, elbows him in the face. Now, you may be saying, Tim, why do we care about the race? That was why the video went viral.
The video went viral because they were like, hey, this is assault. This is a crime. Well, apparently the dude who did it got arrested. I think he got kicked off the team. He got criminally charged for I could be wrong. But they were like, yo, that was an assault. Now, my question is, why does the WNBA allow this? It's silly. The initial. Let's go back to the beginning. She gets hit in the face. I don't know if that initial face hit was intentional.
Actually, it does kind of look intentional. It looks like this chick reaches her hand up and whacks her in the face. And then she goes, ah, my eye. And then this chick body checks her. Yo, what? Dude, WNBA. Basically, it's turning into like low-grade UFC. But here's my issue. Here's my issue, right? Let me show that again. Look, this chick in the white.
Boom. She body checks Caitlyn Clark. Caitlyn Clark didn't do anything. She's just standing there and then boom, body check. She shoves her back like, what the hell, dude? And then this lady just shoves her to the ground. Yo, this is wild. Welcome to the deranged, deranged show.
Attention economy. I like this post from at Steven songs. When you watch a WNBA game and Caitlin Clark is playing and it's just WWE dudes, just mercilessly pounding on a guy. Dare I say Caitlin Clark was being mercilessly beaten by the rival team. This is a stupid game. The WNBA is a stupid league and they should be ashamed of themselves. And they are a disgrace to sports.
You know, what little respect there was for the WNBA is now just less, I guess. The WNBA. I was reading about another player. Don't get me wrong. The WNBA players, they do make money, right? They make money because they have endorsements, but they don't really get paid a whole lot.
They, I think like some of the better players might get like $100,000 a year and they got like a one or two year contract. And I'm just sitting here thinking like, you must really love basketball because like any one of these ladies can go be like a pharmaceutical tech and make $200,000. That's like a normal job, but they want to play basketball in a league no one wants to watch. Okay. Cause there's no dunking, I guess, but good fundamentals.
Anyway, the WNBA is basically leaning into this. They like these photos of Caitlin Clark getting whipped because she's their, well, I'd say whipping boy, but she's a woman. So she's their whipping woman and they love it.
This makes the WNBA go viral. Welcome to the attention economy. We don't manufacture things anymore. We don't even do services because those are the jobs people don't want. So what can you do in order to make money these days? With social media, everything is about how long I can lock your eyeballs onto my face. The WNBA, man, they figured it out. People want to see fights.
I mean, the UFC is a multi-billion dollar enterprise at this point. Shout out to Dana White. He turned that around. Early 2000s, it was worth nothing. And he built it up. He built it up. And it's a crazy thing, you know? It was like they sunk $40 million going to investors being like, come on, like UFC's big. Now, it's like the greatest sport we got. I love UFC. It's amazing. I really love the sportsmanship.
I've been to a couple in-person fights. I was just there recently. Got to see the president. It's amazing. And what I love more than anything is like after some dude gets like, like bashed in the face, they get up, they high five, they hug, they talk, the athletes talk to each other. You know, one dude got knocked out in 28 seconds and then afterwards they get up and the other guy who won is like patting him on the shoulder and he's like, good fight. And they're talking sportsmanship, right?
That's what's fascinating. I watch a fight where people are like, it's a combat sport. I'm going to score points. I'm going to take you down, but I want to make sure you're all right. All right. So there I've seen UFC. You've seen UFC where like dude gets hurt real bad. And the other fighters like trying to check on him. Is he okay? You know, we're, we're trying to beat each other, but we're not trying to seriously maim or injure for the most part. You know, sometimes it happens.
The WNBA is the opposite. Dude, it's just watching like foxy boxing at this point. And the WNBA is OK with it. This is where we're going to be headed.
You've already got this problem. It's largely what, in my opinion, drives liberals. They are a political product of this environment where the name of the game is, can I get you to watch? Case in point, all of these far left and liberal, I shouldn't even say far left. At least the far left might talk about foreign policy. But these liberals just make video after video after video of random screenshots of Trump
And it just says Trump unhinged, Trump crazy, Trump looks sad, Trump looks disheveled. And I'm like, none of it is news. It's attention grabbing shot content. And that's what will drive humans. WNBA case in point. It's supposed to be a game. You throw the ball, the ball goes in no hoop, you get points. Now it's literally just foxy boxing. And everybody's watching like they watch NASCAR waiting for that crash. Congratulations, WNBA. Your reputation could not be worse.
But there you go, I guess. That's it. You got me talking about it. Basically, what gets me talking about the WNBA is the technological advancements, the social trends, and this is what your kids will be doing if you give them a tablet. That's what we're making. Man, we are so screwed. This was the answer to Fermi's paradox all along. We're going to create...
sensory overload machines and fry our brains until we're withered husks staring at women being beaten on the screen because that's it. That's it, I guess. The WNBA sucks. Thanks for hanging out. I'll see you on the next segment. Whoopi Goldberg says that
Living under Iranian regime is the same as being black in America. That's insane. And the clip is just going to make you angry. But we're going to play it anyway, because context is important. And I want to show you the full statement that was made. Let me just say this before we play the video. And half of you have your eyes bulged out of your skull and your ears bleed.
Iran forces women to wear hijab. There are restrictions on what you can do as a woman, like going outside without a man and things like that. It's an Islamic republic. There are stories after story after story of young women who are beaten for not wearing hijab. And that's just the surface level. If you're gay, they force you to gender transition or hang you from cranes.
Whoopi Goldberg thinks that if you're black, you can't walk outside. All right, here's the clip. It's going viral. And it's slow. But let's just remember, too, the Iranians literally throw gay people off of buildings. They don't adhere to basic human rights. Okay, hold on. They don't do that in Iran. There's other countries that do that. Iran is a developed nation with a strong moral police. So maybe sometimes, but Iran is a formalized means of killing gay people. Typically, you'll see in...
Other Middle Eastern countries, Afghanistan and things like that, where there's less of a solid authority, right? Anyway, I digress. Let's not do that, because if we start with that, we have been known in this country to tie gay folks to the car. Like, let me just tell you guys.
In Chicago, there's a bathhouse where gay dudes have sex and do drugs. That is what is typically understood in Chicago. It's a large building on the north side, and if you're gay, no one's going to tie you a car and kill you. In fact, you're going to freely go to a publicly advertised building to do drugs and have gay sex. Now, to be fair, they do say that they ban drugs. You're not allowed to do any of that stuff.
But nobody believes it. Nobody believes it. You want to talk about what's legal and illegal in this country and whether or not in the United States it's different than Iran? Come on, whoopee. And they're clapping for her. 150 years ago? Come on.
That's not what you mean to say. It is the same. No, it's not. The year 2025 in the United States is nothing like if I stepped foot wearing this outfit in Tehran right now. I'm sorry. I can't have my hair showing. I can't wear a skirt. I can't have my arms out. I'm telling you, as a... I literally said it was up to the Iranian people. And that's why I am saying...
that it is the same murdering someone for their different... Victimhood complex. It is not the same by any stretch of the imagination. Oprah Winfrey and Will Smith, two really great examples of wealthy and successful black people in this country, and not the only ones. Dave Chappelle. In this country, prosperity exists. Racism exists, too. There are problems. I can acknowledge all of those things.
But women can't go outside unless they're covered up in Iran. Otherwise, they will be arrested and in some instances beaten to death. There's a story from a couple years ago, a woman who got shot in the spine because she wouldn't wear her hijab. In some instances, there are women who are wearing their hijabs slightly wrong.
Stories where the hair was coming out of the front and they said, that's improper and immodest. Cover your hair. And when they apologized, it didn't matter. The men start beating the women. It's not good. Whoever does it's not good.
So that's why I said you weren't saying what I heard was not what you meant. I think it's very different to live in the United States in 2025 than it is to live in Iran. Not if you're black. Not for everybody. Not if you're black. Guys. They're clapping.
The audience is clapping because these people don't live in reality. They live in fictional, crazy world. Don't go to Tehran. Do not. Let me tell you about being in this country. This is the greatest country in the world. But yeah, I know that. I know that. And we all know that.
But every day we are worried. Do we have to be worried about our kids? Are their kids going to get shot because they're running through somebody's neighborhood? These are they are not big deals. And I don't mean to say they're not big deals to you because that's not what I meant. And they are not doing well there either.
They are not doing well in Iran. They are not educated. Nobody wants to diminish the very real problems we have in this country. That's no one's intent. But I think it's important we remember there are places much darker than this country and people who deserve right. Not everybody feels that way. Imagine having the gall to be like, actually, I'm much more oppressed than the people living under an Islamic Republic and Sharia law.
Not everybody feels that way. Listen, I'm sorry. You know, when you think about the fact that we got the vote in 1965. What? They don't have free and fair elections in Iraq.
It's not true. It's not even the same universe. They can't go out of their house. You know what? There's no way I can make you understand. Let me try something. Because you're wrong. Try to reverse roles with a black person in this country, let's say, because I think that's what you're talking about. Just try to understand from their point of view. From that point of view, this country does not do them well, does not go through that. I completely understand that.
And we shouldn't compare atrocities. If you're talking about Iran, Iran, of course, is doing worse things. But relatively speaking, it feels bad. I think you know that Iran is significantly worse. I guess we're going to come back and talk more about this. Oh, my God. These people are psychotic.
They have no sense of fact, only fiction. And this is what you would, I would call this narcissistic personality disorder. When you can get a wealthy black woman, one of the most famous people on the planet, granted, I don't know if she's in the top 50, but Whoopi Goldberg is well known from her hits like Sister Act and Sister Act 2, as well as her starring role of...
recurring role in Star Trek The Next Generation as Guinan. Don't forget she was in Ghost. I have no idea what else she was in. Was she actually in Sister Act? I think that was her. Anyway, she's a millionaire. She's a millionaire. Okay. She reportedly gets like $8 million a year and she's like, this country is very hard for us. Now, you want to talk about poor people? We can talk about poor people. You want to talk about racism? We can talk about racism. I think all that's fine. All that's fair.
But Iran is an authoritarian, fundamentalist nation. It's got its ups and downs. Not everybody who lives in Iran is like crying every single day. There's stores, there's cars, people live, they get by. But women cannot go outside without being covered up. I don't even remember when they were. They certainly can't vote. Actually, I could be wrong about this. Let's see. Can women vote in Iran? I would be surprised.
Because voting doesn't matter, right? Because they've got a religious government. Yes, they can. Since 1963. That's amazing. Whoopi Goldberg's like, we didn't get to vote until 1965. What are you talking about? Let's see. In Parliament, women currently hold about 14 to 17 seats out of 290. A modest representation. Interesting.
They cannot run for president or the assembly of experts and face strict vetting and dress code requirements. Can they go outside without men? I don't know if Iran does this. I know that like Dubai and the Emirates and other places have a restriction on like if you're a woman. Yeah, women don't need a male guardian inside the country. There's no legal requirement for men to accompany them in daily life. However, they do face many restrictions.
They must adhere to a mandatory dress code, including hijab, in public and as enforced by the morality police. Interesting. Unmarried women, 18 and older, must get formal permission from their father to obtain a passport and leave the country. Guarding travel rights can be revoked, Guardian, at any time by husbands, leading to last-minute bans. Ha ha ha!
I love that. So if you're a guy and you're in Iran and you've got a wife and she's like, I want to go go on vacation abroad. I'll be back, you know, go for the week. He can go now. And Whoopi Goldberg is like, we have it worse. We have it worse. That's amazing. Women are legally under a male guardianship requirement for any international transport with varying by marital status. You know, it was always really crazy to me, to be honest, is that.
There are, you know, you go to the airport and there's like in the bathroom, they'll make a sign. It says like, if you're being trafficked, call this number. And I'm just like, it's crazy to me because why, once you're in the United States, you can just be like, help, help. I'm being repressed, you know? But there's this old story where this guy sees these big elephants. This may be a true story. And they have a little piece of rope on their leg tied to a little stake in the ground. And the guy was like,
Is that it? That's how you keep the elephants from running off? And they were like, it's all you need. I said, but hold on. These elephants can just rip that thing out of the ground. And they said, yeah, but they don't know that. See, when they're little, when they're babies, they can't. And they try and they struggle and it won't come out of the ground because they're small and weak. By the time they're large adults, they have just given into the idea that there's no point in trying because it won't work.
Now, I don't know if that's true, because I kind of imagine like elephant might just get scared and pull back and accidentally rip out of the ground or whatever. But that's basically what they say. So there's a lot of people who live in these countries. They don't know. They are like that elephant. The thing about Whoopi Goldberg and a lot of these progressives is that they are told over and over again that you are oppressed and no one has it worse.
The idea that a wealthy black woman like Whoopi Goldberg has anything like the people in Iran is just laughable. And Iran's not the most egregious violator of rights. Certainly other countries are worse. Think like there's, you know, in the in the Arabian Peninsula, it's probably substantially worse. I mean, you can't go outside without a guardian and things like that in certain countries. And she's like, nope, nope, nope. We have a bed. You just don't understand.
Man, it's laughably insane. I'm going to wrap it up there. Stay tuned. We got more segments coming up for you. So follow me on Instagram at Tim Cash. Thanks for hanging out. We'll see y'all then. This could be the end of the Democratic Party. Now, I was surprised to learn recently, and I can't believe I didn't know this. The Democratic Party is the oldest political party in the world. And all good things must come to an end, they say. Or in this instance, a really, really bad thing.
I'm reminded more of the story of the man who had the ring that said, this too shall pass. The New York Times reported that the DNC is in chaos. They lost their donor. Their new leader is on the verge of quitting. They just removed a bunch of their vice chairs. And their approval rating has reached a new low. Republicans, on the other hand, they're doing okay. I mean, they're underwater. People have criticisms of the Republicans, but it's fascinating. The Democratic Party has no leader.
There is no one in the party with charisma. And even their top polling candidate for 2028, AOC, musters up only around 10%. Now, to be fair, there have been new primary polls that have come out and said Kamala Harris is the frontrunner. Oh, boy, that's got to hurt. I can't imagine that there is any sane Democrat left. But if there is some guy,
Well, to be fair, I don't know how many of the same ones were there for a while, but let's say there's at least some rational Democrat who really understands what's going on in the world and they just genuinely like the crackpot worldview of the Democrats. They're sitting there being like, yeah, we lost. That's it.
You've got this viral video from Eric Swalwell where the best they can muster up is fictional reality lies. But people don't want to live in that world. Liberals, I think, let me put it this way. I think what separates, and this is, you know, we were talking about this on Timcast IRL. What separates liberals from conservatives, there are many factors. One of which is liberals live in fictional realities. They base their view of the world off of movies and TV shows.
That's why they think guns with suppressors go pew, pew, pew when that's not at all what they do. It's why they think machine gun like Washington's a machine. I was going to say it's why they think all long guns are machine guns. And so what do they do? Well, to muster up support for their cause, they make fake political videos. The right. Not so much. Maybe they should.
But now we can see the ramifications, my friends. What's happening is that people are fleeing en masse. Young people are becoming Christian and conservative, and they ain't having what the Democrats are selling. The media, the corporate press, is the only reason why they still exist. But we'll get into all of that, my friends, before we do. We got a great sponsor. It is Field of Greens. This stuff's actually, I actually got a bunch of it right here.
Field of Greens dot com. Use promo code Tim. Take us out. Brickhouse Field of Greens. Organic superfood. It's like powdered, pulverized fruits and veggies. And you put it's got a lot of vitamins. That's what I like about it. It's got selenium in it. That's good. And it tastes great. It's really fantastic. So, my friends, what do we got here? Our annual doctor checkups. Important to you.
Maybe you're concerned about peace of mind, family history. You got health issues. You want to stay ahead of any health problems. Would you do anything to avoid going to a doctor? I mean, maybe sometimes you should go to a doctor. But if you're being healthy and you're tracking your intake and you're making sure that you're exercising and eating right, you can avoid all these things. And it makes life a lot easier, especially when you've got this stuff. Actually, we have it here because I use this all the time. Wildberry flavor. It's really good.
Enjoy a delicious glass daily of Dr. Formulated Field of Greens. You'll feel amazing, and your doctor will notice the difference or your money back. Wow, that's a bold claim.
There's a real customer feedback. Some people have said the best blood work they've had in a decade. The doctor told them, whatever you're doing, keep doing it. Again, I really do think that a large component of it is there's a lot of vitamins in here. And let me tell you guys, I had a period where I was eating nothing but chicken wings. I'm not kidding. For like three months, it's just every meal was chicken. And needless to say, I wasn't feeling all that great, but they're so good. And my wife is like, maybe you should eat a vegetable. And I was like,
Yeah, you know, and so I did and I do and I feel a lot better. So my friends, you'll get 20% off plus free shipping by going to fieldofgreens.com and using the promo code Tim. Shout out to Brickhouse Nutrition and Field of Greens. But don't forget.

Let's read the news right now, my friends from The New York Times. The DNC is in chaos and desperate for cash.
Under its new leader, Ken Martin, the Democratic National Committee has been plagued by infighting and a drop in big donations, raising alarms for Democrats as they try to win back power. I really don't think they will. And I'll also add that we've got I've got a new poll came out just on the 11th and the Democratic Party's ratings are gone. Now, I feel kind of bad.
For all of you guys that are watching, I imagine many of you are sick and tired of the Democratic Party. Many of you may have been former Democrats. You quit. You don't have anything to do with these lunatics. Not that the Republicans are perfect, but I feel kind of bad simply because I feel like we're kicking them when they're down. But boy, are they down now? Now, I'm kidding. I don't really feel bad. And the issue at hand is the Democrats, in my view, are evil.
They're evil people. Adam Schiff is an evil man. Jamie Raskin is an evil man. There was a video, I think it was Nick Sorter, I believe it was Nick Sorter, who asked him simple questions about Abrego Garcia, saying now that he's been brought, I think his question was, do you have a response to the return of Abrego Garcia and now that he's being charged for human trafficking? And he got called a fascist and all the names in the book. And it's like, bro, that's a legitimate question. And it wasn't a gotcha and it wasn't an insult.
But these people are nuts. They lie, they cheat, they steal. Check this out. Even the New York Times can no longer cover it up. Just months into the tenure of the new party leader, Ken Martin, the Democratic National Committee's financial situation has grown so bleak that top officials have discussed whether they might need to borrow money this year to keep paying the bills. Guys.
I want but one thing for Christmas. No, wait, do we get presents? We should get we should give presents on the 4th of July. I think so. It is for the Democratic Party to buckle and collapse. I would be so happy. Fundraising from major donors, some of whom Mr. Martin is still not spoken with, has slowed sharply at the same time. He has expanded the party's financial commitments to every state and even to far flung territories like Guam.
Fellow Democrats are grumbling that Mr. Martin, who quietly accepted a raise after taking the post, has been badly distracted by internal battles. So far, they say he has been unable to help unite his party against Republicans who control the federal government. A protracted and public fight with David Hogg, a 25 year old activist turned DNC vice chair who blindsided party officials with a plan to challenge incumbent Democrats made things worse.
The clash included the leak of embarrassing audio of Mr. Martin questioning his role and ended in Mr. Hogg's unceremonious exit this month. Guys, who are these people? David Hogg? Mr. Martin? The party's actually been dead for some time, but did you guys know this one?
that this dude, Ken Martin, was crying. I'm going to play the audio. I'm going to play the audio.
I, I, I deeply respect you, David. I, I too was looking forward to working with you, but this has created a situation and I'll be very honest with you for the first time in my hundred days on this job. And Jessica knows this, um,
I said the other night I said to myself for the first time, I don't know if I want to do this anymore. We got him, boys. He's going to quit. I'm going to jump to the end because I don't want to hear his blathering. I'm sure you don't either. But I do want to hear the part where he nearly cries. I'm trying to get my sea legs underneath of me and actually develop any amount of credibility so I can go out there and raise the money and do the job I need to to put ourselves in a position to win.
And again, I don't think you intended this, but you essentially destroyed any chance I have to show the leadership that I need to. So it's really frustrating. Did you hear that? The last bit. The last bit. One more time. One more time. That I need to. So it's really frustrating.
You can say when you can hear when he said the word frustrating, the man is on the verge of tears. Now, I got to I got to tell you guys, you may be saying, Tim, you're being so mean to the Democrats. Why? This is why. For those that are just listening, not seeing. I've pulled up an image of six mug shots from the Trump administration where they went after Trump's lawyers and advocates, confidants, personnel within his administration, his campaign, etc.,
It was no holds barred political corruption against Donald Trump and his team. They lied about what Trump was doing. They falsely accused him of crimes. They trumped up charges against him. Trumped up.
I am sick of this and I have zero sympathy for these smarmy, evil scumbags. Republicans are many things, but I'd typically describe them as greedy, self-interested jellyfish. You've got people in the Republican Party that are not going to do what the American people need done. They're going to pull their heads into their turtle shells and hide.
Those are the do nothing, slow down there, Democrats. You know I'm talking about. And, you know, some of them deserve credit. There are some Democrats I like, too. Some Republicans, a lot of Republicans I like. But the Republican Party, typically, I say this. You know, let me put it this way. I got a call from my mom back several years ago. And they're making many YouTube videos talking about the Democrats. And she said, why are you only talking about Democrats? Why aren't you criticizing Republicans? And I said, OK, sure. What have Republicans done?
And she was like, well, I don't know. I'm just saying you're only ever talking about Democrats. And I was like, yeah, OK, by all means, give me a story about a Republican that is shocking and newsworthy. And you I guarantee you I will cover it. And there are some there are some at the time this was on my Tim Cass channel on YouTube. I was doing a video every day at 4 p.m. and it was almost always like Democrats were doing a thing. And I think the reality was clear.
And my mom came to realize that I said, the truth is, when it comes to scandals and untoward behavior, it's the media. It's the Democratic Party. And the worst thing I can say about Republicans is that they're do nothings. They sit on their hands. They cower in fear and they don't do it. They're the Washington generals, the Democrats, Harlem Globetrotters. They were bad people. They're criminals. There's crooks. There's fraud, all that stuff. But it pales in comparison.
I mean, if we go back, we're looking at the Russia Gates scandal, the false accusations against Trump that he was a traitor to his own country. OK, of course, we're going to talk about that. It was all lies. And every and anybody who actually looked into the news, what did you find? They were lying. So what's the story? Democrats were lying.
Now, I'm glad the market finally caught up. We have this from Real Clear Polling. The current Democratic Party favorability is minus 23.6 in aggregate, with one of the latest polls from Marquette having them down 31. Massive. Wow. But wait, there's more. So here's the actual poll from Marquette.
Says approval of the way Republicans in Congress are handling their job stands at 43 percent with disapproval at 57. Hey, that's not so good. Republicans, 43. You're slightly less than 50 50. How about Democrats? Oh, boy. Substantially lower at 29 percent with disapproval at 71. Yikes. These are unchanged from March. But wait, there's more from Newsweek.
disapproval of Democrats in Congress ticks upward according to a new poll. And this from just one week ago, they say voters disapproval of democratic members in Congress has increased since February, according to a new Quinnipiac poll last November marked a pivotal election in November. Don't waste my time. We get it. Democratic leaders have struggled for some time. What to know? A Quinnipiac university poll,
Conducted between June 5th and 9th, found that disapproval of Democrats in Congress has increased. Now, that's shocking to me. I did not think it could get any worse for Democrats, but low it has. 70% of participants said they disapprove of how Democrats are handling their jobs in Congress, while 21% approve. Just 21%. My God. That's got to be the lowest approval rating ever for the Democratic Party. Maybe, I don't know.
Among Democrats, 53% disapprove and 41% approve. Just 9% of Republicans approve of Democrats' performance, while 84% disapprove. That is remarkably bad. Now, here's the best part. Yo, let's take a look at that poll I just showed from Marquette, and I'll tell you how really bad it is for Democrats. Approval of the way Republicans in Congress are handling their job, I mentioned that, 43%. Democrats, 29%. Up, up, up, up.
Let's take a look at intra party politics. Here we go. Approval of Republicans in Congress among Republicans. The Republican Party has an 81 percent approval and a 19 percent disapproval among independents. Yikes. Twenty one percent approval. Seventy three percent disapproval. And Democrats give it a nine percent approval with a 91 percent disapproval. Now, this is actually good news. Check this out. If the polling is it could be good news, but I'll break it down for you.
If among independents, it's more than two to one against, but Republicans are still doing decently well, it's indicative of a large and growing Republican Party, or it's that the poll is weighted poorly, and that could be a reality as well. But among that weighting, take a look at this. Approval of Democrats among Republicans, 7% I'm sorry, approval to 93% disapproval.
Independents give Democrats a 33% approval to a 67% disapproval. But here's the best part. Democrats themselves give the Democratic Party a 49% approval rating. I kid you not. Democrats disapprove of their own party at 51%. Yowza. And thus, my friends, the party's collapsed. They say it's the oldest political party in the world.
You could argue that the Conservative Party in the UK was an offshoot of the Tories, but it's still a different political party. And in that regard, the Democrats were the Democratic Republicans. No, this is it. All things come to an end. And the Democratic Party is the oldest party in the world. It may be on the verge of collapse. But what happens next? If the Democratic Party crumbles completely, what do we get?
The Libertarian Party is a bunch of wackaloons. We may get the Democratic Socialists. I don't see how they muster anything up. And it may just be the Republican Party becomes the principal dominant political party in this country because the Democrats can't muster up any meaningful retort. No charismatic leaders, no policy plans. It seems the strategy of Democrats these days is to fight cops to get on TV.
I'm not I'm not kidding. Democrats may just be like, hey, remember that show cops? If we're the person attacking the cops and getting arrested, we'll get attention. And people don't like cops, at least for our voters. But I don't see how that's going to muster up the suburban housewife vote they need to actually win. They're going to mention in The New York Times.
News of two of the country's most influential labor leaders who represent a combined 3.2 million workers were leaving the DNC. That's crazy. Rufus Gifford, who served as finance chairman for Kamala Harris, blah, blah, blah, and yada, yada. Worse than some high school student council drama. Let me tell you about our good friend David Hogg and his ilk in the DNC. The truth is, my friends...
These people are permanent. They are perpetual children. OK, an adult, an adult human being. They understand things. Work is hard. OK, you've got to go out and you've got to run full speed every day as your body breaks down and you age and you will push like Sisyphus with that rock up a mountain until the very end when your bones give out and the boulder crushes you. But don't worry. Don't worry.
Your children, your family and your friends will be there to push that boulder as your knees buckle and give out. And that's always been the case. And we pass off that burden of hard work and life to our children, trying always to make it a little bit better. But what does David Hogg represent?
Well, David Hogg represents the perpetual children who don't want to pick up the burden. They're not doing the work. They're not pushing the boulder. And they're waiting and watching somebody else. And they're saying, you do it. And don't get me wrong. There are a lot of people in Gen Z that are based. A lot of millennials, too. But millennials are a wacky generation. And Gen Alpha is tiny largely because of millennials. So millennials in Gen Z get a problem. The left wing of these generations are lazy, entitled millennials.
And they don't want to do any work. They want communism. So what happens? These permanent children get in and you get high school drama. And that was always going to be the case. So here we are. Now, I do want to give David Hogg one little bit of credit. David Hogg says Dems backing Iran war should be primaried. Okay.
Now, I am you know, I've described it as largely anti intervention, but I'm not so naive as to say I understand that I think that the world should never the United States should never be involved in any kind of conflict ever. I get it. Like if they're trying to kill Donald Trump, Iran, that's a that's an act of war against us. And I think we have to do something. Right. I don't know if I want an intervention of boots on the ground, but there's a retaliation.
If our president was assassinated by a foreign adversary, it's war instantly. You can't exist as a nation if you allow that to happen. But right now, I say no. And so I'll give him some credit. I like a little bit of this. But let's take a look at what we got. We have Barack Obama and his fall from grace. Barack Obama warns the U.S. is dangerously close to slipping into autocracy under Trump. Really? Really, Barack Obama?
I got a question. When you killed that 16 year old American citizen who was chilling at a civilian restaurant in Yemen, did you know you get the point? I bring it up all the time. Barack Obama is not a good dude under Joe Biden and even under Trump. The DOJ was just was was autocratic. I mean, we the only reason I'd say it didn't fall into autocracy is that we pulled out of that tailspin.
But let's talk about the censorship industrial complex where big tech was banning ideas and telling you that if you disagree with gender ideology, they were going to ban you from their platforms. And they did. The removal of Alex Jones from every platform. It was political manipulation for power. And we won. We won, fortunately, so far. The battle's far from over. And this is why I'm in favor of Trump's big, beautiful bill.
Because I want Trump's agenda to succeed, despite the fact I understand deficit spending and building up the debt is really bad. It's really bad. You know what's worse? People like Barack Obama gaining power again and then deciding to lock up random people who disagree with the machine. And it is incredible. It's like everything Alex Jones was saying coming true, talking about government overreach, manipulation, spying, the interdimensional stuff and the human hybrid things I don't know so much about. But I will say this.
When we had Alex Jones on TimCast IRL several years ago, and he was like, Tim, Tony, you're eating cloned beef. Okay, the beef you're eating, it's genetically engineered cloned beef. And I was like, Alex, that is not true. We're not eating cloned beef. And he was like, Google it right now. And I did. And you're eating cloned beef. They've been cloning cows. Got a little bug. They've been cloning cows and serving cloned meat. Man, I didn't realize that. Because they were like, this cow is desirable or something. So it's crazy. But here we are.
Former President Barack Obama has issued a warning about the future of American democracy, saying we're dangerously close to normalizing behavior consistent with autocracies. If you follow regularly what is said by those who are in charge of the federal government right now, there is a weak commitment to what we understood and not just my generation, at least since World War II, our understanding of how a liberal democracy is supposed to work. Let's entertain this. You got these classical liberals right now.
And they're saying things like, you know, the world's great and blah, blah, blah. It's so stupid. Everybody's got this cartoon movie view of what the world is supposed to be like. Let me tell you, during the Roman Empire, it was prosperous. People actually were living pretty well. They had the toilets. And then after the fall of the Roman Empire and the breaking up of Rome, the subsequent nations that developed didn't have indoor plumbing.
Yeah, they would, if you were like the kings, they'd be in a castle. They literally just had a hole you could sit on and you'd poop and the poop would go straight down like, you know, what, 50 feet onto the ground where servants would scrape it out. Yeah, Rome had indoor plumbing. Rome was all right. The Roman Republic fell and it became empire. It's a long history with hundreds of years and it's not just one thing. But after this, it was several hundred years of prosperity in the empire.
It doesn't mean that instantly everything was bad and that you were being beaten to death. Although we prefer not to have monarchies and autocracies or anything like that, I'm saying there is nuance in all things. The reason I bring this up is that what we are dealing with right now is the Democratic establishment weaponizing federal government against its political rivals to destroy them, imprison them. It hunted down people across this country over minor misdemeanor trespass, and it put them in solitary confinement.
Some people got convicted and were given 20 years in prison, even if they were not there on January 6th. And then you come to me and say Trump shouldn't go after them. Now, shut up. It's ridiculous.
Maybe, maybe we move into some kind of empire or something like this. The only advice I can give you is figure out how to survive and navigate these systems. It's never good to be in an autocratic system, but it's not a creation of Donald Trump. It's existed. It's an emergent phenomena. And it's coming to a head, perhaps, where we get a conflict. I don't know.
What I can say is this idea that we have to live in a singular type of world that allows the Democratic Party to run roughshod over the American people is an absurdity. And they say, yes, but Trump using the weight of the DOJ and cash going after these these people in the Democratic Party is fascism. I don't care. I literally don't care. OK, here's the problem. You let corrupt people go. Corruption breeds.
Perhaps then you argue if you crack down on the corruption, you get empire. You get this. You get autocracy. OK, I would choose if the choices right now are the Democrats are a rogue political party that have imprisoned people on false charges and were operating like authoritarian zealots. And then you have the Republicans that rule with with to the to the book of law stringently and fervently.
But by the law of this land, clearly one is better than the other. I would rather have a third term of Donald Trump than Democrats regaining power. And you say to me, and I know that they're going to take that out of context. They're going to be like, oh, that's fascism and Trump can't do it. I don't want either of those scenarios. I don't want a Trump third term and I don't want Democrats back in power. The point I'm bringing up is this photo before your eyes. They arrested Trump's lawyers.
They violated the Constitution. They wiped their asses with it. And that coming back is the fascism, the authoritarianism, the ideological zealotry that I fear. And Trump having a third term? Trump barely wants to invoke the Insurrection Act to go after riots. Congratulations. He just had the National Guard for the first time. He didn't do it in his first term. A third term of Donald Trump violates the Constitution. I believe it's the 22nd Amendment that says two terms only.
And so I have a problem with that. I say no, no. But if you came to me and said we are going to put back in place the machine state of the Democratic Party who is going to lock up all of their political rivals on false criminal charges, they've been violating the Constitution. I say, no, don't do it. No. So I tell you this. Those aren't our only options. It's likely that 2028 is going to be J.D. Vance and maybe somebody else running.
The Democrats are trying to make it seem like it's going to be a Trump third term. I reject that. Now, my friends, currently the MAGA coalition is split, particularly over the war in Iran. So we're going to be joined by Laura Luer to talk about what's going on with this divide, her support for Donald Trump, what's going on with Iran. And there's a frog in here. What? Holy crap. What? I'm not kidding. I legit. What? No, there's a frog in my studio somehow. I saw this giant green thing jump and I freaked out.
There's a little frog on my floor. This is the most exciting episode of The Morning Show I've ever done. I got to call. I got to bring Laura Loomer in and then catch this frog before it dies. I have no idea how it got in here. This makes literally no sense. We're in a closed studio inside a building, inside a building. But there's a frog jumping around. This is awesome. Anyway, smash the like button. Share the show with everyone you know. Interview will be coming up at 4 p.m. at youtube.com slash timcast and rumble.com slash timpool. And we'll see you all then.
