[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] YouTuber Tim Pool's lawsuit against Kamala HQ, which represents and posts on behalf of Kamala Harris
once a marijuana-busting Caliphornia DA
' presidential campaign on X, reached a successful conclusion on Friday. While the details of the settlement have not been made public, Pool posted that he was "satisfied" with the result along with a screen capture showing that the allegedly defaming post from Kamala HQ had been deleted. In his suit against the campaign, Pool had asked for a retraction: the deletion of the post is essentially that.
"The lawsuit between I, Tim Pool, and The Kamala Harris Campaign has been resolved to my satisfaction," he said. "Thank You." One of the things his suit against the campaign alleged was that he had suffered "reputational harm" at the hands of the Kamala campaign. The deletion of their post, while it does not fully repair that damage, reveals that the campaign has been made fully aware of their falsehood against Pool.
When asked if he thought this resolution was an indication that things are finally getting back to even, and how far he thinks we still have to go, he said "I think it's getting better. I think we are winning," but mentioned two recent events from this week that give him pause, namely the ongoing Daniel Penny trial and the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. "The Daniel Penny verdict and the CEO liquidation shows the far left is still here and still dangerous." The chorus of leftists practically cheering the death of the CEO was deafening and Penny could end up facing another trial on manslaughter charges.
The suit had originated in September of this year when Kamala HQ accused Pool of being a "Trump operative" and claimed that he wanted to "execute those who don't support Trump if he wins." This text was accompanying a video clip from Pool's Timcast IRL where he was in fact advocating exactly against the death penalty
and against political retribution. Kamala HQ prescribed views to Pool that were actually entirely anathema to his beliefs and cut the clip out of context to uphold their bold, salacious, derogatory claim.
In response to the post, Pool said "I have engaged legal counsel. We are preparing to take action. More to come." That "more" came when Pool filed a suit against Kamala Harris' campaign, taking aim at every one of their allegations and discrediting them.
"Trump operatives say their Project 2025 plan is to give Trump total, unchecked legal power so they can jail and execute those who don't support Trump if he wins," Kamala Harris' campaign posted on X, along with an out-of-context clip, noting by way of accusation that "They have since scrubbed this video from YouTube."
Pool stated that he was never associated with the Heritage Foundation or their massive publication called Project 2025, that he opposes capital punishment and always has, and that the video in question was not "scrubbed" as the campaign said but was removed by Pool due the potential interpretation of comments made by a guest on the show to be calls for violence.
"I feel that the lies from the Kamala campaign have become so shockingly, shockingly egregious, they strike at the conscience of any good, rational American," Pool said.
"We are preparing a lawsuit against the Kamala Harris campaign due to a defamatory statement posted on X which is extreme, egregious," Pool continued at the time, "and I just got to say, outright psychotic in accusing me, me personally, as well as Laura Loomer, but we are two separate individuals, of calling for unchecked legal power so that they, meaning Trump and his allies, can jail and execute anyone who doesn't support Trump if he wins, which is a shocking and egregious lie that goes so far beyond the pale. I, well, I just can't even. It's shocking and downright insane."
