WE'RE GOING IN w/ Austin Rodgers & Adam Johnson

Chapter 1: What is the likelihood of U.S. troops being deployed to Iran?

0.031 - 17.828 Tim Pool

The likelihood that we put boots on the ground is unfortunately going up, at least I think in the general opinion. It's not guaranteed. We don't know for sure. But the Democrats have come out saying they are fearful based on what they are saying that the likelihood we are going to put boots on the ground is increasing. Whether or not we trust them, I don't know.

0

17.848 - 35.695 Tim Pool

But I got to be honest, I don't think Democrats are actually fearful of it. I think they're talking out the side of their mouths going like, oh, no, I hope we don't have boots on the ground. Wink. Yeah, at the same time, Israel is calling up 100,000 reservists, and the question there is, for what purpose? Do you need 100,000 people active across the country?

0

36.116 - 56.678 Tim Pool

Well, to be fair, there's probably ground operations in Israel they do need people for, but 100,000 is quite a bit. And then there's the ultimate logic, which is how do you guarantee that the regime you've, or I should say the Supreme Leader that you've taken out and his leadership is not replaced by the exact same structure? You can't unless there is some form of occupation.

0

57.199 - 77.812 Tim Pool

So perhaps it won't be direct U.S. troops, but it seems incredibly likely This will be the outcome. And that appears to be an ever increasing opinion that people are having. But again, we're going to see and we're going to show you exactly what the Democrats is Blumenthal. He's saying, I fear it's going to happen as well as the information that we've been getting from Israel.

0

78.392 - 100.592 Tim Pool

But when you factor in those fears and I think, again, the general assessment and fears people have. With the fact that a U.S. base was just struck by Iran and that a CIA facility was also just struck by Iran and that they've been striking civilian targets and they've they've shut down the Strait of Hormuz. If we don't get a handle on this quickly.

100.572 - 120.081 Tim Pool

and actually stop their government and their capability to fight, which, again, Trump says we've done largely. But if they're allowed to continue, it's going to cause severe economic crises around the planet, which means, again, I think the general assessment is, how do you solve this unless you actually get people in to shut down those military capabilities? So we got to talk about that.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of Israel mobilizing 100,000 reservists?

120.282 - 140.441 Tim Pool

But, my friends, there's much, much bigger news. I know it's funny to say, right? But in Texas, we got big elections happening right now. And we are all rooting for Brandon Herrera, who is 91% in the prediction markets to win. And that's what we want to see. And so we're gonna be tracking those election results out of Texas. It looks like Jasmine Crockett is going to lose.

0

141.162 - 158.728 Tim Pool

She's got like 10% probability to win. Yikes. We're going to track those results around 9 p.m., so stick around. It's going to be a lot of fun. Before we get started, we've got a great sponsor for you, my friends. It is Qualia Stem Cells. Indeed, not actually stem cells, okay, but what your body needs to make better stem cells.

159.249 - 173.384 Tim Pool

Can you guys remember a moment when your body just didn't heal like it used to? Maybe after getting sick or pushing yourself physically. I can remember because I'm literally experiencing it right now as I'm one week from turning 40. I got sick and I'm literally knocked out for five days and I'm really angry because it didn't used to be this way.

0

173.404 - 190.942 Tim Pool

And I take vitamins and I exercise and my diet's above average. It's not perfect. Sometimes you Taco Bell. And so needless to say, I've been sick for a few days and it's extremely frustrating, especially when I miss Monday after the weekend where the U.S. declares war on Iran. So anyway, I'm considering... Qualia stem cell, because they're speaking my love language on this one.

0

191.463 - 204.362 Tim Pool

They say, the secret to healing, recovery, and resilience isn't just luck, it's stem cells. It's your body's built-in repair crew, but as we age, the system slows down, fewer cells, weaker signals. Your cells are powerful. Make sure they stay that way with Qualia's innovative new stem cell formula.

204.883 - 222.191 Tim Pool

Qualia stem cell supports your body's own stem cells for healing, recovery, renewal, without actually providing stem cells. Think of stem cells as your body's repair crew and quality of stem cell helps them do their job. So if you ever felt like your body doesn't just bounce back like it used to, whether it's after a tough workout, getting sick, or just the wear and tear of life, this is for you.

359.087 - 365.057 Carter Banks

Hello, everybody. My name is Phil Labonte. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary. Carter.

Chapter 4: What are the latest election results from Texas?

379.173 - 380.215 Unknown

He lives here now. Yeah.

0

380.755 - 395.999 Tim Pool

Thanks for coming out. All right. Let's get it. We got this story from the Washington Examiner. Senate Democrat, quote, more fearful than ever of U.S. troop deployment to Iran after briefing. And, you know, I'm going to say it outright. I don't actually think he's fearful at all.

0

396.479 - 412.68 Tim Pool

I think he got a briefing and inside they're all going like, whoo, and they started jumping up on the table and clicking their heels and doing a tap dance. And then they're like, stop, stop, stop, stop. Calm down. Poker face, poker face. I'm just so worried about boots on there. Let me play the video for you and stop goofing off. Here you go.

0

413 - 434.785 Unknown

I just want to say I am more fearful than ever after this briefing that we may be putting boots on the ground and that troops from the United States may be necessary to accomplish objectives that the administration seems to have, but I also

0

435.642 - 462.612 Unknown

and no more clear on what the priorities are going to be of the administration going forward, whether it is destroying the nuclear capacity of Iran or simply the missiles or regime change or stopping terrorist activities. And I think the administration owes it to the American people to have briefings not just for members of Congress but for the American public.

463.165 - 466.291 Unknown

Nothing here should have been classified.

466.311 - 484.887 Tim Pool

So I'm going to go ahead and say, yeah, I think there's probably boots on the ground. We have this from Times of Israel is actually an older story from a few days ago. IDF mobilizes one hundred thousand reservists amid war with Iran. So we have all of these indicators. And I think to the point made by Senator Blumenthal.

484.867 - 507.246 Tim Pool

They're getting these briefings, and I believe what you're getting is they would never and they could never come out and just say, we hereby declare war on Iran and we're sending in the troops because there would be revolt instantly. So what you need is some kind of Cass's belly. And then after that, some kind of justification for furtherance of that war. We have had a U.S. airbase struck.

507.226 - 529.154 Tim Pool

We have had a CIA facility struck. We have the Strait of Hormuz closed. All of these things are causing the water to boil. And at a certain point, you are going to have, in my opinion, I'm not saying for sure, but if this continues like this, you will then get, you know, Hegseth or Trump or someone coming out being like, You know, we lost so many American lives today. It's unfortunate.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of Jasmine Crockett's election comments?

4237.976 - 4241.018 Phil Labonte

Maybe. Maybe. That would be really quite the show.

0

4241.339 - 4242.199 Carter Banks

I don't know. If she loses.

0

4242.219 - 4245.502 Phil Labonte

I think they'd get an Oscar. If she wins. They'd get Oscar noms for that one.

0

4245.522 - 4249.686 Carter Banks

I mean, I wonder. I imagine she'll just move and go try and get back into Congress.

0

Chapter 6: How does the betting market reflect election predictions?

4249.966 - 4250.166 Carter Banks

Yeah.

0

4250.186 - 4252.028 Phil Labonte

Like where was she? She could move to Jersey.

0

4252.075 - 4254.599 Carter Banks

I mean, maybe. Where's she originally from? Is she from Jersey?

0

4254.719 - 4258.025 Phil Labonte

I thought she was from Texas. No, I don't think so. Is she not? Maybe.

0

Chapter 7: What are the key issues surrounding Texas election results?

4258.245 - 4266.539 Austin Rogers

I don't know. Let's look it up. I mean, maybe she would just move. I'm sure she'd cash out for a little while, make a little money, and then maybe make another run at it.

0

4266.759 - 4267.16 Tim Pool

Write a book.

0

4267.541 - 4268.903 Austin Rogers

Yeah. Yeah.

0

4268.883 - 4273.012 Carter Banks

You know, write a book. Yeah. I can't imagine what Jasmine St.

Chapter 8: How does the discussion of autonomous weapons relate to U.S. foreign policy?

4273.032 - 4274.495 Phil Labonte

Louis. She's from St. Louis, Missouri.

0

4274.616 - 4275.157 Carter Banks

Oh, there you go.

0

4275.197 - 4280.388 Phil Labonte

You go back to Missouri. She could fight Cori Bush for that seat. Cori Bush has been trying to get back for a while.

0

4280.629 - 4285.66 Carter Banks

God, it is astounding that Cori Bush was ever in Congress.

0

4285.64 - 4296.57 Phil Labonte

You realize she she could she was part of a congressional hearing on black maternal mortality. And she referred to herself as a birthing person.

4296.59 - 4299.673 Carter Banks

She was just an absolute imbecile.

4299.693 - 4323.118 Tim Pool

Yes. I just want to say real quick, there's a you are. So right now, Kalshi has there's no contracts available to to bet. Yes. On Tallarico to buy. Yes. Contracts. Jasmine Crockett. There's a yes, no, no, she will not get the nomination, not available. But if you want to bet she's going to win... And if you want to bet, Tallarico is going to lose. Those are allowed.

4323.599 - 4349.498 Tim Pool

And we call those value bets because a hundred bucks on no wins you $9,351. So the idea there, it's a value bet. If you, again, you know, it's, it's, it's, it's buying contracts on futures predictions, but this is like for a hundred bucks, having a very, very, very slim chance to win basically 10 G's, you know, there's a lot of people who take those bets. And I think it's probably a bad idea.

4349.984 - 4368.683 Tim Pool

Probably a bad idea. Jasmine, she gone. Yeah, I think that's good. Now take a look at this. Tony Gonzalez up to 35% to win, which is weird because Brandon Herrera is at 83%. And I think the reason here is I want to clarify. It's... My understanding is it's supposed to be internally among themselves.
