Tim argues Pete Buttigieg is the CIA/billionaire class's preferred candidate, riffing on his CIA interview comment, identity politics as a way to dodge scrutiny, and speculates Pete was meant to be a VP pick.
- Mayor Pete is the establishment's guy in the race, with a strong neoliberal position that loves war and serves billionaires.
- The CIA works for the establishment—they're hired guns paving the way for billionaires and corporations worldwide.
- Someone well-placed said the truly scary guys are people like Mayor Pete: ambitious, with no money or connections, willing to do anything.
- Why do millionaires and billionaires love the gay mayor of South Bend, Indiana—what about him excites them?
- Elevating someone based on identity politics sidesteps meaningful critique regardless of what they actually believe.
- Pete was their guy in the race—the establishment expected Biden or Warren to get the nod, with Pete as VP.
- The billionaire cartels want a sympathetic ear in the White House, whether as VP or President.
- When you're a CIA asset, it doesn't mean taking orders at Langley—it means you're on their team and they help you succeed.
- Biden imploded in ways the establishment didn't anticipate—he's senile, smelling people's hair and making out with relatives onstage.
- Tim doesn't think Biden is a pedophile, just completely falling apart mentally, his senses crossing in unexplainable ways.
