Per NBC News, the cult is still a cult. It’s funny because Maisie is a hard right conservative. He votes with Trump on everything except the Epstein files and some foreign aid/corrupt deals by Trump admin. But that’s not enough.
Something I noticed with this note is that Epstein seems to defend his “innocence”. Which is odd at least to me because if you watch the Bannon interview he clearly doesn’t care at all. So my question would be when he is about to commit suicide why would he all of a sudden care?
Furthermore “In a court filing, the Justice Department indicated it did not know if the purported note is legitimate.” So this whole thing just seems really odd to me.
Luke Thomas, Pablo Torre, Macrodosing (Barstool Pod). I think this is just a really smart move and outreach by Tim. Sports I think is a huge untapped area that in my view the left hasn’t really ever figured out. The right has pretty much institutionally built up soft conservative messaging in many leagues (and a lot of leagues are just systematically set up that way).
Meanwhile, the left has trouble with that more soft messaging. Point being it’s a huge opportunity I think for growth. Tim’s really good at this, look at the comments in the micro-dosing podcast. Most love Tim. And I get most of the hosts there are left wing, but still it is a barstool podcast. Which is run by Dave Portnoy a really despicable MAGA moron.
I think we just need good “vibes” chill people like Tim can be to lay some of the groundwork. It’s a tough balance because if you’re too forceful with it you’re seen as “cringe”.
We have to be willing to do that though. The whole “bread and circuses” critique which some (to be fair small) portion of the left level at sports to me has always been stupid and counterproductive. Could you imagine that same critique for any other hobby? Would you tell a someone who enjoys gardening some snarky line about tomatoes and potatoes or something? Of course not!
I’m a huge sports fan (Washington fan: Commanders, Nationals, Wizards, Capitals). So I admit this is sort of my pet issue. But I think Tim correctly identifies this is an area of influence that we have neglected. Way to go Tim! Keep going!
Pretty short but decent I think, doesn’t talk about Mills all that long but is pretty nice to her in the brief period he talks about her. Hope Mills backs him which I suspect and hope she will.
Look he’s our nominee, whatever concerns we may have (which I share by the way), we should put it aside. It’s him vs. Collins. We should back him one hundred percent. I think the opposition research done by Mills against him months ago is actually a good thing. Imagine if all that was coming out right now. I think it’s good that it’s all out in the open.
Onward and upward. Beat Collins. That’s all that matters.
(Starts speaking around 4:50-8:20, then after some other people speak takes few questions around 18:40. Audio only works for right ear for me as well just so you know.)
