Timcast’s representative, linked to conservative commentator Tim Pool, participated in official White House press coverage. This move is part of the Trump administration's broader strategy to include newer, right-leaning media platforms, an action that aligns the platform with authoritarian communication efforts and potentially undercuts the diversity of independent media.

Tim Pool from Timcast, who has historical links to a Russian-funded propaganda operation, has been added to the White House press pool. This move comes at a time when traditional journalistic standards are being sidelined, with authorities favoring influencers whose content has been tied to far‐right narratives and misinformation campaigns.

Tim Pool, the figure behind Timcast, has been added to the White House press pool despite allegations that he was paid by a Russian-funded media company to help spread disinformation during the 2024 U.S. presidential election. This development highlights concerns over the intertwining of partisan media influence and state political processes.

Tim Pool was reported to be selling the Timcast operation to The Daily Wire with potential layoffs and employee relocations, spurring concerns over alignment with far‐right media practices. However, Pool refuted the sale, asserting personal ownership while praising The Daily Wire, which raises issues over potential ideological alignment and employee treatment.

Timcast contributor Shane Cashman expressed a full-throttle endorsement for Ye's presidential run during an interview on Timcast IRL, despite the candidate’s controversial history including pro-Nazi rants.
