Timcast IRL #634 Tulsi QUITS Democrat Party Citing Wokeness & Anti-White Racism w/Kathy Barnette
Episode Recap
Timcast IRL episode #634 featured Tim Pool and his co-hosts discussing several major news stories, with the primary focus on Tulsi Gabbard's announcement that she was quitting the Democratic Party. Tim Pool expressed support for Gabbard's decision but noted it came too late, pointing out she had previously endorsed Joe Biden and stood next to him during his inauguration. The discussion centered on Gabbard's criticisms of the Democratic Party being controlled by an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by woke ideology that divides Americans by racializing issues and stoking anti-white racism. The co-hosts, including Luke Rudkowski of We Are Change and Ian Crossland, weighed in on the implications of high-profile Democrats leaving the party. Additionally, the episode covered Republicans suing the Biden administration over alleged collusion with big tech companies to censor speech on social media platforms. Another significant topic was the report about Elon Musk allegedly turning off Starlink in parts of Ukraine after reportedly speaking with Vladimir Putin, with the panel discussing the implications of this decision and the disputed claims about Musk's communications with the Russian president. Kathy Barnette, who had recently completed a competitive Pennsylvania senatorial primary race, joined as a guest to discuss these political developments. The show included the usual banter between co-hosts and a BetMGM Casino advertisement read at the beginning.

Notable Quotes
“Tulsi Gabbard finally announced she's quitting the Democratic Party. And obviously, you know, everybody saw this coming. I'm glad she's come out and announced it. I'm glad she's calling out what she is calling out. But I'm just going to come out and say it before we get into all the news. I think it's too little too late.”
— Tim Pool · opening segment about Tulsi Gabbard
“The bigger impact would have been if in the 2020 race, she came out and said exactly what she's saying now. Instead, she endorsed Joe Biden. And correct me if I'm wrong, but she was standing next to Biden during his inauguration is what I was told.”
— Tim Pool · critique of timing of Gabbard's announcement
“I am a mom, a wife, and I love my country. Most people would know me. I just finished a brutal, very competitive senatorial race in the primary for Pennsylvania. And now I am looking for every opportunity to continue to push my values.”
— Kathy Barnette · guest introduction
“The Democratic Party has become the party of the wealthy elites. Conservative news outlets say it, moderate news outlets say it. Leftist news outlets say it. And even Democrat establishment news outlets say it.”
