Timcast IRL #722 The View Blames Spill On East Palestine For Voting Trump w/Clint Russell & Josie TRHL
Episode Recap
Timcast IRL episode 722 featured Tim Pool, co-host Ian Crossland, and guests Clint Russell and Josie discussing the East Palestine train derailment controversy and the subsequent political fallout. The show opened with coverage of Pete Buttigieg finally visiting East Palestine three weeks after the disaster, noting he fled from journalists asking why he delayed his visit and only came after Donald Trump's visit. The main segment centered on Joy Behar's controversial comments on The View suggesting East Palestine residents deserved the toxic spill because they voted for Trump. Tim and guests analyzed the remarks, discussing the infrastructure bill and the $102 billion allocated to railroads, while debating deregulation versus corporate accountability. The conversation also covered the jury foreperson Emily Kors in the Trump grand jury case, who Tim described as "unhinged" and whose behavior may have undermined the prosecution's case.

Notable Quotes
“So Buttigieg finally makes his way down to East Palestine, runs away from some journalists who asked a rather simple question. Why did it take three weeks for you to get down here? Why did you only come after Donald Trump did? And will you apologize? I think those are really good questions.”
— Tim Pool · opening segment
“The big story right now that's getting some traction online is Joy Behar on The View said, this is what they voted for. They voted for Trump. He did this.”
— Tim Pool · main story introduction
“I literally lost my channel on YouTube the day after I was on with you guys two months ago and I got it back two hours before I'm on today. Instead of getting people to come and subscribe to Liberty Lockdown, I'm just going to tell everybody go to TimCast and sign up to become a supporting member because you guys are doing more to bring back free speech than anybody else.”
— Clint Russell · guest introduction
“Some people have taken that and they're saying that this is The View saying they deserved it. And it's like, well, kind of. It's a little strong. She's basically blaming them for voting for the guy saying well you voted for him this is what you get.”
— Tim Pool · analysis of Joy Behar comments
“She definitely comes off as unhinged anti-Trumper. This may have completely undermined their case against Trump because now there's a public spectacle of an anti-Trump person acting very crazy and that, well, it's not confidence building in any potential indictment.”
