Kamala Goes BANKRUPT & WARS w/Biden + President Trump Announces Plan To RECLAIM Free Speech - SF490
01:05:35 Share

Hey, you awakening wonders. Thanks so much for joining us today for a brand new week of Stay Free with Russell Brand. We are together. We are unified. Hello, Wraith87642. Hello, DeanSNJ. Hello, Sharkbait. Welcome any of you joining us from Bongino's Army or any of Rubin's friends or any of Chris's.

How does Mug Club? If you're not watching us on Rumble Premium yet, try it out. The clock's not on, guys. If you're watching us on YouTube, we'll be there for the first 15 minutes, and after that, we'll be exclusively streaming on Rumble where we can speak freely, and free speech is one of the topics that we're talking about most today. We'll

We're going to look at this Hillary Clinton speech where, as is often the case, Hillary Clinton advocates for further and more deliberate censorship. And of course, Trump's declaration that free speech is now back on the agenda. You know, one thing, if you watch this on YouTube,

our YouTube figures are starting to improve, whereas a lot of people whose messaging advocates and supports globalist centrist messaging are saying that they are seeing their numbers fall. Let me know in the comments and chat, do you think

that YouTube, Google, Meta stifle and control information to perpetuate and disseminate messaging that's beneficial to globalist interests. If you're not an awakened wonder yet, like April MLJ is or Sensitive Hearts or Hendy24, become an awakened wonder. Then you can join us, excuse me, every week. I'm drinking so much Topo Chico. I'm in a continual state of gaseousness. Lolo Cali 18 on Rumble says, YouTube sucks.

Three syllables that conveys a lot of information. We'll be talking a lot about free speech. We'll be talking about break bread with Russell Brand, which is my new Christian show that you can join me for if you're an awakened one. This week I'm even going to be speaking to J. John, one of my great teachers, the British evangelist. Or I might be talking to Jonathan Pagiot. We've not yet done the scheduling, but it's going to be one of those two guys. Let's get into this week's news.

There's a lot of things I want to cover. I want to cover the post electoral analyses. Like, for example, I want to cover the fact that a lot of people are sort of saying that potentially that Biden should resign to make Kamala de facto the first female president, you know, just as a kind of landmark. Let me know what you think about that.

MSC panelists are still trying to determine what the reasons are for Trump's election. And, uh, um,

there's a lot of conversation about how sort of ordinary people feel dislocated and disinterested in a Democrat party. But mostly what's interesting me today is this free speech stuff. We'll be getting into that in a minute. Let's have a look at this first story about the value of just as a gesture, making Kamala Harris, the first female president. Is there any value in moves like that right now?

... transition, right, of her own defeat. And it would make sure that it would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public want to see. This is the moment for us to change the entire perspective of how Democrats operate. Okay, this has now jumped from an internet meme to a Sunday morning show. Jamal's out here right now. Congratulations.

How's the audio on that? Can you guys hear that? Justin, can you or John Taylor be watching it on the stream and moderating comments for me, please? John Taylor, remember our deal that you watch the show and regulate the comments. Remember that. Or if you're not doing that, to tell me in advance of the show, Russell, I'm not doing that today because I'm going to be doing this. Remember that. Thank you. That's a personal request. Thank you so much. All right. So here is Trump.

Directly talking. This is maybe how America is going to be run now. Directly, candidly and publicly. Let's have a look at Trump telling Putin audio going in and out. The audio is going in and out according to comments, guys.

Here's Trump directly calling Putin, telling him to de-escalate tensions. Just into our newsroom, the Washington Post reports that President-elect Trump spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Now, his campaign has not confirmed that, saying that these are private conversations with world leaders, but

It does show you how quickly President Trump has hit the ground running. I think the fact that the president is engaged in personal diplomacy like he did with North Korea, I think is a positive here because of the fact that he has a reputation for trying to break through some of the impasses that we've seen in a way that can support peace. I mean, the president has been very clear about not wanting America to be involved in

in more wars. I think he's a peace president, and I think that the second presidency will be one that is attempting to be strong but will engage to try to find a path forward to peace. And that's what I would expect his efforts are involved here for. And I do think that it's important to recognize that

The president has a stake in American interests first. He's not going to be carrying water for anybody but America in these negotiations. And I think that is to avoid escalations, which is not surprising why he has been saying, let's make sure we don't see escalations from Russia, because I think that the United States wants to avoid any type of escalatory spiral.

Once you have that kind of transparency and open communication, I suppose we'll be able to determine for ourselves whether or not your country is being run in accordance with the mandate that's just been granted and will come into full effect next January.

A moment now to look at who controls the media space and which stories are told and which stories are believed and which stories land. This is a story that the Daily Wire reported that houses with Trump signs outside weren't receiving FEMA aid. Now, the New York Times and Legacy Media have pushed back on this. But think about how many times in Legacy Media you read a story saying,

Then under analysis and under scrutiny, it's proven that that story was false or fake news. What we're probably going to experience now, and indeed what I'm already experiencing as someone whose content is up in a variety of places like YouTube, for example, is that media spaces that were being conveniently regulated in accordance with the propaganda imperatives of the globalists are now experiencing a little buckle and flex.

as a new power dynamic emerges. You know, YouTube, even just a couple of weeks ago, probably felt happy strangling any content they felt was adversarial to their preferred candidate's message. But now that's changing. Let's have a look at this Daily Wire story that FEMA were skipping over houses that had traffic

Trump signs outside as if it's some sort of Old Testament Red Cross on the door moment. And it's the angel of death. Let's have a look. Breaking tonight, Republican lawmakers now confirming a report that says after Hurricane Milton, a FEMA supervisor told disaster relief workers in Florida to avoid homes with Trump signs in their yards. FEMA says it believes the incident.

I mean, if the Trump sign stayed up during the hurricane, is that a further omen?

of the results that were yet to come. It's a hurricane with the signs still up. Says it believes the incident is isolated and the supervisor who gave the anti-Trump order is no longer in that role. Friends, the senior national correspondent Kevin Cork is live in D.C. with what we're learning about this tonight. Kevin, good evening. Evening, Trace. Quite a story. Imagine if you'd been impacted by a major storm, hoping the government, you know, the one that you send your taxpayer funds to, will aid in your recovery.

only to discover that if you support Donald Trump, they're going to ignore you altogether. And that's apparently what happened in the great state of Florida, where a FEMA supervisor allegedly told workers in a message to avoid homes advertising Trump as they canvassed Lake Placid, Florida, to identify residents who could qualify for federal aid.

And tonight, credit where credit is due, that FEMA official has been removed from her role by the agency. In a statement to Fox News Digital, a FEMA spokesperson. I'd say that the media have to take some responsibility for that, for escalating tensions to a point of such hysteria, where a campaign sign outside a door was seen as some sort of dark imperative, some dark symbol of malcontentment. Like, really?

Really? Do you imagine that would have been so divisive in election campaigns in the 70s and 80s? Let me know. I weren't in your country. Let me know in the comments in the chat. The media have continually reported that Trump's a Nazi and that Trump supporters are garbage. And so in the end, you get to a point where perhaps understandably emergency workers say maybe...

Maybe there's no room at the end for these guys. Is it that different, too, from during the pandemic period when it was widely reported that people that hadn't been vaccinated oughtn't receive medical assistance? We'll be looking at some stories about vaccination and the propaganda that surrounded that a little later in the show, as well as an escalation of citizen management around free speech in Australia and the way that protesters

Protecting young people is being utilized to legitimize further authoritarianism. Again, usually when we hear stories about helping people, it's, you know, that help comes in the form of control. A FEMA spokesperson said the agency is deeply disturbed, noting the official who gave the instruction was...

given no direction to tell teams to avoid these homes. Quote, while we believe this is an isolated incident, we have taken measures to remove the employee from their role and are investigating the matter to prevent this from happening ever again.

Digital, a female spokesperson. Sorry about that. Here's a denial of that story and then a confirmation of it. Trump's false claim about the federal response to Hurricane Helena. The former president falsely accused the Biden administration of spending disaster funding on migrants in the collective areas that voted Republican. FEMA fires employee for telling Milton relief workers to skip houses with Trump signs. OK, so it's one individual. Maybe it's not as bad as all.

that. It was an interesting campaign period. Do you think that it was pretty fascinating when you'd see people like Barack Obama saying congratulations on a campaign well thought? Of course the result didn't go the way we wanted it to go but nevertheless it was a well thought campaign and did you see how similar

Kamala's concession speech was to Hillary's. Did you notice that? And does that sort of further make you feel that what you're dealing with is a kind of centralized, almost already AI, bureaucratic entity where the figure that's at the forefront don't really matter because it's just a cipher for an ulterior message? That's what globalism in part indicates, isn't it? That you could be in Canada under Trudeau, Britain under Starmer, the US under Kamala,

France under Macron. And ultimately, the messaging you receive will be globalist messaging. What do I mean by that? That there are certain global entities and power that have subvert in national sovereignty. When there was first the reaction to nativism, the, you know, America first movements, France first movements, Algeria first movements, people started saying,

who's at the core of this. Racism and misogyny. But of course, what's at the core of this is the rejection of global authoritarianism, the tyranny that we must truly, if not fear, be aware of and alert to. This is the real threat.

Trump's election may be many things, and I'm sure a lot of commentators will say that it's a variety of things. Some people will say it's the coming of Adam again. Some harbingers will claim this is these are the final days, the last trumpet sound. But others will point to the fact that it's a disruption in a project of globalism.

That likely began, or at least began in earnest with Clinton in your country, Blair in mine, an attempt to use the language of social care and social justice to mask an agenda that was about control and never about help. Well, people are rejecting it, regardless of how...

well or expensive a campaign may, a well-run campaign may have been or how much it may have cost. For me, it's fascinating to see an entire electorate rejecting a pantheon of celebrities, ignoring media messaging. It's incredible to see a candidate overcome

What is come has come to be known as lawfare, one of the neologisms of our age, where the judiciary itself, institutions that are by their nature meant to be arbiters of universal principles, righteousness, justice, morality and good being politically correct.

That's what we're seeing now, the capture of institutions. And indeed, doesn't that align rather neatly with Mike Benz's analysis that when people say democracy, inverted commas, now what they mean is not the process of the will of the people, the will of the electorate itself.

enacted through the ballot box, they mean a set of institutions that are centrally controlled and regarded, in my view, incorrectly as sacred. OK, apparently, whatever you thought of that campaign with celebrities lining up to back Kamala for a variety of reasons, it's

It certainly didn't work and it was certainly very expensive. Let's have a look now at Fox News' report on how that billion dollars was spent and was actually largely ineffective. You learn two things about Kamala this election. She's good at raising money and she's good at blowing it. But money can't buy you elections, especially when you spend it like she did. She raked in more than a billion dollars and is somehow now in debt.

The Washington Examiner dug through her financial statements and gave us a good clue why. Kamala's campaign was getting whacked like a piñata while D.C. leeches hoovered up all the cash. She spent over $50 million on payroll. Trump's campaign spent less than $10 million.

Another 12 million went to consultants and 20 million went to their little concerts with Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Christina Aguilera, Jon Bon Jovi. Remember him? Campaign insiders are mad at the bosses for wasting donor money on concerts instead of ads about, you know, the economy. Quote, they said they were spending to zero. I guess they overshot zero.

Ads would have gone a lot further than the pricey celebrity endorsements. One campaign source said people were concerned about their own financial issues, not Oprah telling them America won't exist. But it worked out nicely for Oprah. She got her friend Kamala to pay her a million dollars to interview her in September. A million dollars. Kamala scared donors by calling Trump a dictator, got a billion bucks, then just gave it to her friends.

and blew the rest on being a diva. Kamala went on a podcast, remember Call Her Daddy? But she didn't want to go to their studio in LA. So she made the host fly to DC and used campaign cash to build a fake set in a hotel room. She spent more than a hundred grand to build it. That set, see it? Two chairs, a coffee table, and a bookshelf. So she's still trying to soak folks for cash. 24 hours after the election, on Wednesday,

Democrats got a text from the campaign. Urgent. We need help.

In the run-up to the election, what we were talking about on our channel is how will what we learned in 2016 through the election of Donald Trump and the Brexit vote in the UK play out in 2024? Will we learn that new media, social media environments have been captured, are sufficiently censored to control their impact, or will we learn that we are indeed

in a new world when it comes to messaging. The legacy media, centralized media have lost their stranglehold over minds, hearts and of course throats of the population and electorate. But it's actually broader than that, isn't it? Like the celebrity itself now seems ineffective. It seems odd to say it because like Tucker Carlson say and Joe Rogan are like middle-aged men.

But it appears that figures like Rogan and Tucker Carlson are more impactful than, say, J-Lo or Taylor Swift. Probably not if you're a 10-year-old girl. I don't imagine. I reckon you're probably more into Taylor Swift. I don't know. How could I possibly know? I'll ask my own daughters. But

Celebrity itself now is perhaps correctly regarded as less significant and influential when it comes to political matters. The idea that we would sort of care about, you know, what George Clooney reckons or whatever.

you know, any one of a number of Democrat endorsing politicians. It just seems like it's changed, right? Say you have. So the election was like a Christmas gift to Hollywood. Yeah. Like a lot of people don't care no more. It's interesting. It's interesting. The atmosphere is changing. I suppose as well, when you look at Hollywood, when you look at

you know, post Epstein's list, which we're likely to see now, post the revelations about Diddy, post the kind of, if they are indeed revelations, you know, I guess that's an ongoing story, but certainly seems like a lot of celebrities are sort of webbed into that world.

It's now people don't have the same sort of respect or excitement or regard for Hollywood. That's probably a process that's slowly been unraveling for a while now. This is a new media landscape. This is a new world. And in fact, I think that what we've been experiencing is the attempt for old media.

Authorities, the attempt of old authorities to adjust to a new landscape. Oh no, we don't have control of information anymore. How are we going to get control of information? We need to legitimize authority. How you can legitimize authority is through crisis, whether that's a pandemic...

or a war. We need to legitimize the control of information. We've got a bunch of stories that explain how that phenomena is continuing and they will be taking place over the next, wow, we're here for another 40 minutes. We're still with you on YouTube and we'll be with you for a couple more. We've got so many things to tell you about. We make this content, as you know, in conjunction with our partners.

If you watch this on YouTube, we're going to leave in a second. The countdown has started and you're going to want to join us for conversations about free speech.

Changes. Trump has announced plans to reclaim free speech. Australia's attempt to amplify and accelerate citizen management. This is what it's like if there's not opposition to globalism. Bernie Sanders condemning the Democrat Party for its inability to reach people with its billion dollar campaign. And we're going to be talking about that now. Was this indeed, as Dem insiders are claiming, a billion dollar disaster? Join us over on Rumble. The truth is that

This is just an epic disaster. This is a $1 billion disaster. Actually, it was $1 billion, $18 million, I think, right? There were $20 million or $18 million in debt. It's incredible. And I raised millions of that.

I have friends that I have to be accountable to and to explain what happened because I told them it was a margin of error race. I was promised, General Natalie Dillon promised all of us that Harris would win. She even put videos out saying that Harris would win. I believed her. My donors believed her.

And so they wrote massive checks. I just I feel like a lot of us were misled. And even on the night of election night, Will, I looked somebody in the eye and I said, are we going to do this? Are we going to pull it off? She told me yes. And I asked somebody else, like, how are you feeling? He's like, we're going to win Iowa. And I was like, what? Did they believe this going in? Was there a real sense of false confidence on the side of Kamala Harris? Or did they know they were in in store for disaster?

You know, I was wondering about that. I was like, are you I asked them, are you privy to internal numbers that I am not seeing? Because I study this so carefully and I just wasn't seeing any basis for that level of confidence. And I also I also want to remind our viewers that, you know, the Trump campaign was touting all these incredible empirical data weeks before election night. What Harris is touting was a door knocking. She didn't say anything really about early voting. Now I know it's because there was nothing much to say.

What has been the relationship throughout the campaign? And what do you think the relationship is today between Biden world and Kamala Harris world? Well, I have friends, I mean, in both worlds. And let me tell you, the relationship was terrible. Even before the campaign, there was backstabbing. They wanted to hand her the most, you know, least favorable agenda, you know, the

legislative priorities. She was stuck with immigration, civil rights, like none of that. Before she was even a candidate, you're saying, as vice president. There was a lot of backstabbing we saw in the press. People were leaking stuff all the time. The White House was leaking like a seed when it came to Kamala Harris. And finally, in the final year, she was able to stabilize and stop the bleeding of her staff because there was a lot of turnover as well. And we saw the press reports about that.

And things have finally started to calm down. And I actually think President Biden, you know, the whole endorsing her 30 minutes after he dropped out, I think that was a big F you to the party. You know, you don't want me. Here's somebody that you may not like.

This is about control. We're talking about control of free speech. If you can control free speech, you can control consciousness itself without getting too metaphysical. What is the ultimate resource of our reality? Is it some mirror? Is it some mineral like cobble? Is it oil? Is it...

semiconductors or is it our ability to receive information including our sense of reality itself the free speech war is the only war that really matters and Hillary Clinton has for some time been saying that we need control over social media

This is how I believe it works. They establish a principle like we need control over social media. Then they reverse engineer how to get control over social media. Like Elon Musk recently said of Stalin's torturer in chief, show me the man and I'll show you the crime. If you want to get rid of an opponent, you have to say, hmm, how are we going to get rid of that vocal opponent? What could we say to bring down that?

that vocal opponent. So they've decided that one way to get rid of all vocal opponents will be able to assert mass control over social media. Trump means that they're not going to be able to do that. And when I say they, I mean a set of globalist interests, groups that are transcendent of national democracies and institutions within national democracies that are able to bypass, transcend, transgress.

and overwrite the transition of administrations. That now is under threat, I would say, in your country. It's not under threat in mine. It's advancing apace in countries that still have centrist politicians and leaders in control. Let's have a look at Hillary Clinton openly declaring that what they need is control over social media and now. And then let's have a look at Trump's new plan today.

to assure and insure free speech. If the platforms, whether it's Facebook or Twitter X or Instagram or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don't moderate and monitor the content, we lose total control. And it's not just the social and psychological effects, it's real harm.

Real harm like democracy. Remember during the pandemic we were told that if they couldn't control social media people would openly report adverse injuries from vaccines. People might openly ask questions about whether or not a vaccine was right for them. For example pregnant women might say should I be taking this? If

I'm pregnant. Young men might say, if I've got a good immune system, should I take this? If there is indeed a risk of myocarditis? It seems now that those were legitimate questions as well as questions like, do you think that Pfizer's profit imperative might be overwriting their medical integrity? All

legitimate questions and all questions that if this can be believed, I'm talking about Trump's claim that he's going to assure free speech, will now be able to be publicly and rigorously asked and will have to be answered. If we don't have free speech, then we just don't have a free country. It's as simple as that.

If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple, just like dominoes, one by one. They'll go down. Just like dominoes? How do dominoes fall?

One by one, they'll go down. That's why today I'm announcing my plan to shatter the left wing censorship regime and to reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans. And reclaim is a very important word in this case because they've taken it away. In recent weeks, bombshell reports have confirmed that.

that a sinister group of deep state bureaucrats, Silicon Valley tyrants, left-wing activists, and depraved corporate news media have been conspiring to manipulate and silence the American people. They have collaborated to suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health. The censorship cartel must be...

This is about got personal experience of I can tell you names of groups that work with the government in my country during the time that I was attacked last year and are now working with or were working with the Biden administration in the build up to the election. That is a very real threat. That's why I'm no longer subject to the Trump derangement. A lot of people that I still consider friends and allies within media are still beleaguered by and overwhelmed by because I've had

personal experience of some of the things that he's describing. I know that it's true. I know that in the UK, government ministers in alliance with AI groups that control, de-amplify messaging, populate your chat with bots, make outrageous allegations, ally with media groups. That's a reality. So the nefarious media interest he's talking about, I know that's true.

I've experienced it. Thankfully, you know it as well. The cartel must be dismantled and destroyed and it must happen immediately. And here's my plan. First, within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department or agency from colluding with any organization, business or person to censor, limit, categorize or impede the lawful speech

of American citizens.

Whoever's president of the United States, Kamala Harris, you might like, or Donald Trump, you might not like. The principle of free speech is there so you can protest. Whatever your religious beliefs are, whether you're a Muslim or a Jew or a Christian or an atheist, you'll be able to freely pursue your right to worship. If you have...

principles you adhere to that are explicit in the American Constitution, the right to pursue happiness, those kind of ideas are really important and valuable. And a social democracy that flows into authoritarianism no longer has the legitimacy that

it set off with the idea that we need to take more power in order to protect you that's the sort of molecular structure of feudalism give us your taxes and we'll protect you from raiding barbarians that's what sort of like pre-democratic or at least in europe pre-democratic countries were founded upon the idea that if you give us your money we'll stop the marauders well now

I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as "mis- or disinformation."

And I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship, directly or indirectly, whether they are the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health, Human Services, the FBI, the DOJ, no matter who they are. Second, I will order the Department of Justice to investigate

all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and terrible, and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified. That's brilliant. In a sense, is that not a continuation of what Julian Assange revealed, of what Edward Snowden is exiled for when we were participating in censorship industrial complex events with Michael Schellenberger and Matt Taibbi that flew out

of the Twitter files when it was revealed indeed that the FBI and CIA and other government agencies had infiltrated social media, not just Twitter, but other groups as well, Meta, Alphabet, all of them in order to debunk, pre-bunk, re-bunk, un-bunk stories to create news cycles that were beneficial to their agenda. Isn't it important and significant that that's ended? Whatever your perspective is on the outcome of this election, that's a principle that you can rely on. Right.

These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities law and antitrust laws, the Hatch Act, and a host of other potential criminal, civil, regulatory, and constitutional offenses. To assist in these efforts, I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters

And we have to do this right now to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign and every Silicon Valley tech giant ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship. Third, upon my inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk revising Section 230 to get big online platforms out of censorship business.

From now on, digital platforms should only qualify for immunity protection under Section 230 if they meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness and non-discrimination. We should require these platforms to increase their efforts to take down unlawful content such as child exploitation and promoting terrorism while dramatically curtailing their power

to arbitrarily restrict lawful speech. Of course, the protection of the vulnerable is vital. Of course, keeping an eye on information that might have, you know, might pertain to terror threats seems significant. And the kind of intelligence and espionage that's always existed, or certainly for as long as there have been states involved,

What I reckon I'm interested in is the mass management of information and how media organisations are able to bypass laws. I'll be very interested to see how this affects events in the UK. Media companies cooperating with and collaborating with government agencies or government funded groups like Logically AI and Crisp Tech. How those groups have relationships with people like Mark Lancaster and Baroness Caroline Dynage will be just so interesting.

to see how this plays out on an international scale because you know that they're in the service of the kind of organizations and corporations that are running scared now of the possibility that government is being revamped and that a reckoning is being undertaken. And I reckon that many of the people that oppose Donald Trump and speak negatively about him are in one way or another

perhaps unconsciously advocating for sets of institutional interests that they don't really understand. They can't understand how Moderna and Pfizer spend their money, how the military industrial complex spend their money, the kind of CIA carve-outs that are set up in all sorts of very, very surprising places. I've seen Freedom of Information, Act Information myself. This is so extraordinarily...

revelatory when it comes to how these things truly run. So what I would say is, you know, like people say, if you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear. Well, surely now these big tech organizations will be grateful that there are new principles and new values, values that actually aren't that new. They're enshrined in the Constitution. Free speech, the right to communicate openly.

that the state doesn't have a paternal and authoritarian relationship with the citizenry, but a position of service. That seems to me like a restoration of a kind of order. But that's just what I think. Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and chat. If you're watching us on Rumble right now, subscribe, give us a like, get involved in the conversation. If you're not on Awaken Wonder yet...

Become an awakened one as you can join us for the conversations we have every week live on Break Bread. Here's a conversation. You'll like this with Eric Metaxas, who's a brilliant theologian and writer talking about how the Nazis took over. So these conversations we have live, they are, you know, they're undergirded by a kind of Christian framing, but we're talking about sort of increasingly relevant political issues. Here's a conversation we had on Break Bread last week. I have heard stories of people, many, many stories,

of people who, the moment they accept Jesus, they are in that moment delivered from any desire ever again to touch alcohol, if that's been a problem or anything. For me, in 1988, when... I don't think that's that one, is it? No, that's labeled as 21. Let's have a look if I said 21. Specifically in 2020, with...

The COVID lockdowns with the gaslighting of the American public on the vaccines and on so many other things. And then with what certainly looked to me in November of 2020, like a stolen election. And then when I brought up that this looks funny,

people said, "Oh, shut up. We can't talk about that. Don't be a conspiracy theorist." I thought more and more and more, this is exactly how it happened in Germany. Bullying people, socially ostracizing them, demonizing them, deplatforming them. There's nothing new under the sun. That is how the Nazis took over.

Fascinating stuff. Join us for Break Bread this week. We'll be doing that tomorrow or Wednesday. So join locals now. I'm talking to you, Roxianne or

or Salmon 221 or 2211, you maybe will call that. We'll be talking to either J. John or Jonathan Pagiot, both brilliant Christian thinkers. And we'll let you know which one it is a little bit later once we've confirmed it ourselves. Obviously, we can't make this content without the support of our commercial partners. Here's a message from them now. Grand Canyon University, a private Christian university in Phoenix, believe...

that we are endowed by our Creator to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness from the Constitution. A Christian university, eh?

We're looking to deepen our relationship with the old Grand Canyon University. Seems like a great place to me. I might even be going to visit it relatively soon. Now, we told you last week about how Australia are banning children from being on social media, which in some ways sounds pretty sensible. I've certainly banned my children from being on social media. But when these things take place at the level of the state, it's always possible that the legislation will be expedited.

What is the role of the state? What is the function of the state and what is the nature of the protection that they offer? These are all pretty big questions. Well, of course, it's been revealed that in order to ban children from social media, Australia will require the ability to sit and manage everything.

Also, just almost exactly as you might have anticipated if you've been watching how these stories tend to play out. Usually what's offered, first of all, is a principle that everyone agrees with, like children should be protected or people shouldn't say mean, hateful stuff about one another. You sort of nod along politely. Of course, people should be kind. We all know that we're here to love one another and serve one another. OK, so you agree with that, do you? Yeah, I do. So how about if the state were able to...

make you stay in your home or make you take certain medications or to shut down your social media accounts or maybe incarcerate you in a variety of ways. Do you see how from an apparently good idea, the ability to control seems to naturally flow? Here, we're given an example in real time because Australia, which was always regarded as being somewhat

at the vanguard of liberalism. I just mean when you sort of take the temperature socially of Australia, you sort of think of it as a pretty relaxed place. I've been there a lot. They're really beautiful, brilliant people over there in Australia. But increasingly, when you analyze the way that the place is governed, you'll see that they've been co-opted and captured by the principles of globalism that so many people are

rejecting out right now. And even that story about protecting children, you know, something that we all agree, isn't that fundamental to children? Isn't that almost the definition of a child? Someone who needs protection because they're not adult yet, not fully grown. Let's have a look at this story. Of course, if you're testing to see if someone's 13 or 14 or 15 or 16, you're also testing to see by definition if they're 16 plus.

So if there's going to be age verification, everybody is going to have to go through an age verification process, won't they? Yes. So this isn't just about the privacy or collecting data about kids. This is literally everybody accessing social media. That's how it has to work, isn't it?

Senator Shoebridge, you just used the term age verification. You may not have been in the room when we had a discussion about the distinction between age verification and age assurance. This is an age assurance trial. This is, if you're going to have age assurance for kids 13, 14, 15 or 16, testing, if they're that age, you're testing everyone's age and you're doing it at that level of age assurance. And that has privacy issues.

and data protection implications for literally everybody accessing social media, doesn't it? Yes, and that's one of the reasons why we've commissioned Consumer Research to look at consumer willingness and particular aspects that are important to them.

There was a time when late night TV could be relied upon to bring entertainment and joy, a kind of ferocious vivacity and excitement about American cultural life. But some time ago, I reckon it was around 2016, late night entertainment itself became a kind of propaganda.

Maybe it always has been. Maybe it was diffuse and homogenized in ways that made it difficult to discern and read. Maybe that's the function of a culture to somehow mold and control you. Great, big, vast questions that unfold across millennia. But what's certain now is that the late night world has become unmanageable.

part of the propaganda machinery and even respected comedians like Stephen Colbert can be seen frequently advocating for ideas that might not be beneficial to their audience and certainly suggest that they are only talking to one particular group and that might not have been something that I myself would have been alert to until he began to attack Bobby Kennedy quite vociferously and frequently.

Now, have a look at this speech of Stephen Colbert's where he sort of talks about Bobby Kennedy, who's now from January, will be in charge of branches of government. That means he'll be able to significantly impact the health of Americans by controlling the excesses and deception of big food.

and big pharma. Let me know in the comments and chat if you think this is exactly the kind of reckoning that was required. Do you not like me have the image of America being turned into a vast carousel of unhealthy children dropped like larvae onto a conveyor belt so they can live their life eating processed seed oils and sugars, making them sick and unwell so that they can eventually be medicated for diabetes?

diabetes and heart disease so that they can be blobbed up on a Zen pic of their entire lives. So when you're ridiculing someone like Bobby Kennedy, who's, you know, an eccentric guy, and eccentric isn't a pejorative term, that means

unusual and the embrace of unusual or brilliant, excellent and advanced people used to be part of what America's life, American life was about. So have a look at Stephen Colbert's framing of Bobby Kennedy as an individual.

neglecting to talk about the crisis in American health, the crisis in big pharma that needs to be addressed, the corruption in both of those industries and the possibility of the state backed by and populated by the right political figures to oppose the kind of corruption that's been making America sick and the possibility that now we could be

Making America Healthy Again. Let me know in the comments and chat what it tells you when Stephen Colbert attacks Bobby Kennedy in this way. Whose side is he on? What causes is he advocating for? We're going to look first of all at Stephen Colbert's speech. Then we're going to look at some

Facts about American nutrition and American corporate life and how America may have been being poisoned for getting on for 50 years in order to create business opportunities. We have the examples now of the tobacco industry. We have numerous examples we can look at, in particular from the pandemic period of how advocating for certain ideas might be beneficial to corporations and businesses.

detrimental to ordinary Americans. It's just surprising when you see that done in the name of entertainment. Here's Stephen Colbert's speech where he's attacking Bobby Kennedy, and then we'll provide some analysis that shows you who this message benefits and who it harms. We still don't know the entire parade of clowns, degenerates, and in-laws that Trump will have running this country, but one guy we know will have a major role is RFK Jr.,

Now, if you're not familiar with him, it's probably because he ran for president and nobody cared.

Okay, so we're going in with a derisory stance, a pejorative position and a general sense of attack when it comes to Bobby Kennedy. Now, a little while ago, Bobby Kennedy would have been adored because he took on companies like, I think, Monsanto and sort of advocated on behalf of rivers. If you care about the environment, if you're like a liberal person who cares about the values of environmentalism and civil rights and social justice, Bobby Kennedy could be a hero. But notice what they want.

to portray Kennedy as is a whack job and a crackpot and a weirdo because it's not so easily available. What's not available are the tropes that you would use to attack Trump. Oh, he's a misogynist. He's a racist. He's a sexist. So it helps me to understand that.

As long as you are not part of the central authoritarian system, they will find a way to attack you. Trump, that's the way we attack him. Kennedy, that's the way we attack him. Joe Rogan, that's the way we attack him. Do you see? They'll find a way to attack you if your message is antithetical to this set of authoritarian interests that are becoming more apparent now simply because, well, it looks like we're going to have more access to free speech. But...

We're familiar with him because he's done a whole mess of crazy stuff, including, but not limited to, admitting to dumping a dead bear in Central Park as a prank, living with an emu who would regularly attack his wife, owning two ravens who meditate with him every morning, bragging about his freezer full of roadkill.

So this is in a sense that whilst that's very trivial information, what's brilliant about this is it's a lens into how legacy media works. It highlights information that could be beneficial. It metastasizes, makes negative information that in a different context you could regard wrongly.

almost as amusing or in fact heartening like a guy that sort of meditates with ravens. Like, wow, that's interesting. That's fascinating. Like, do you notice what the function is of the media to toxify your impression of a particular individual? And beheading a whale, then strapping it to the roof of his minivan for a five hour drive home. Now that sounds deranged.

But he actually has a good reason for all of this. A worm got into his brain and ate a portion of it and then died. So, naturally, this whale... Who is this for? What is the function of this monologue? Whale decapitating, bear dumping, walking, talking worm cemetery is who Donald Trump wants to put in charge of our nation's health. Here he is last week.

Right, so he is a comedian with a massive audience and on the subject of health and the management of American health and the governing of American health. He's not talking to you about big pharma. He's not talking to you about lobbying and donors. He's not talking to you about the pandemic where he advocated vociferously and aggressively for vaccines and even vaccine mandates, ridiculing people who were skeptics.

about taking vaccines concerned people who were openly reporting vaccine injuries getting pretty close to saying that if you didn't have a vaccine you didn't deserve hospital care I remember those things do you remember them let me know in the comments and chat do you remember when Colbert was broadcasting from home do you remember the kind of lacrimose tone of like oh we all have to stick together for America now Bob

Kennedy at that time was way ahead of the curve. He'd already written his book and it was published. Anthony Fauci, the real Anthony Fauci, where he talked about Fauci's corporate relationships. Do you see how highlight in an amplifying the trivial and the ridiculous? Oh, he cut a whale's head off. He had a brain worm. These are like ridiculous, tittle tattle, trivial stories when Colbert could be, if he wanted to be telling the story about how America is making Americans sick.

That American food companies promote foods that are bad for Americans, that are making American children sick. That big pharma companies require you to be sick. That we could be on the precipice if America doesn't change radically. Of advocating for a whole raft of kids to start taking a drug like a Zempik. In the same way that they advocate for a vaccine that maybe in retrospect...

it wasn't worth taking, that maybe natural immunity might have been a better solution to, that maybe vitamin D and ivermectin could have better remedied sunshine and exercise. All things that, by the way, you couldn't say during the pandemic. So this dovetails very nicely into the free speech issue as well. Notice how it works. Smear the opponent, ridicule them and distract you from a really important

an idea. Do you think that big food and big pharma might have a bit too much control over the food that ordinary Americans eat and the way that ordinary Americans treat health? Oughtn't metabolic health be brought to the forefront? Oughtn't more of us be outside exercising, eating well? Oughtn't your government be advocating for that? Like amidst all that crazy litany of stories, and I admit they do sound kind of crazy, the brain worm and the...

cutting off a whale's head or a bear in a park. What it tells you is that Bobby Kennedy is an outdoor guy that probably goes hunting and is connected to nature. Things that probably if more of us did, and you know me, I'm not advocating for hunting or nothing like that, but if you hunt, that's up to you. It's not my business. It's not my job to tell you what to do and what not to do. It's my job to tell you not to trust people who act like they're there to help you when in fact they're facilitating the government's control of you. And that's

That's precisely what's happening there because he's not talking about, but we will be in a second, the number of people that work at the FDA that have a relationship with Pfizer, the number of people that worked at Moderna, both vaccine manufacturers, that took up roles in government or vice versa because it's all a giddy little carousel. And in fact, those are the kind of relationships we should be reporting about, joking about, commenting on because that's the stuff that's going to affect your life. It's not going to affect you if, hey,

Imagine Bobby Kennedy is a bit eccentric. If he's a bit eccentric and he's willing to take on massive corporations, that's going to be good for your children. If he's like, you know, not an eccentric person, like the kind of bureaucrats they're going to try to be making into heroes for the last 20 years, these sort of dullards and people that are semi-celebrities, those people just do what they're told. And if they do what they're told, your kids end up eating bad food and taking bad medicine. Well, possibly that's being disrupted now. Here he is last week.

Robert F. Kennedy cares more about human beings and health and the environment than anybody. I'm going to let him go wild on health. I'm going to let him go wild on the food. I'm going to let him go wild on medicines. Oh, good. Because that's exactly how I like my medicine. Wild. It's just like the directions on the pill bottle say, go crazy balls every two to four hours with

Like, think about the number of people that are on Xanax. There shouldn't be. Even in that joke, there's a revelation of more significant information. Think about the number of people you know that are on meds for depression and for anxiety. The number of people that are overweight, obese, and have got chronic diseases. Think about what's happened since that pandemic era. The rise of heart disease. Let me know in the comments and chat how many people you know that have had heart problems since then. You think, hmm, they shouldn't have had a heart problem. The number of people that

developed weird neurological conditions, the rise of the turbo cancer. Where's Albert Baller now? Where's Fauci now? Where are all of these advocates now? They are masked behind that veneer of glistening propaganda that passes as entertainment every single night because we've all allowed ourselves to become docile and accept that late night talk show hosts, many of whom I, you know, kind of like in a way, like, you know, I like them as entertainers or whatever, because they

They are advocating for propaganda, centrist control, ridiculing a person that's pretty brave and pretty bold and pretty up for taking on corporations, which is exactly what you need. They're advocating for not for your slaughter, but for the slow degeneration and kind of, um...

decay of America into a country of near perpetual incarceration, a living penitentiary where you eat bad food and take bad medicine. And all the while we laugh along in chilled studios with chilled hosts. Two to four hours with food and right. Just freak out.

Freak out twice a day. I got something. I got something. And RFK Jr. is ready for his wilding. Here he is yesterday talking about food deregulation. Why do we have Froot Loops in this country that have 18 or 19 ingredients and you go to Canada and it's got two or three? Now, I'm not the smartest guy in the room. Do you know, right?

Actually, I let my kids eat that kind of stuff. But you know, don't you? It's not good for them. You know that if we had a better run country with more regenerative farming, with more localized food resourcing, with more awareness of nutrition, where food stamps weren't spent on Coca-Cola, you know that everything could be done so better.

And so much better. There's no optimism about it. There's no appetite for it. Because I reckon probably, you know, Kellogg's and Kraft spend significant money advertising on those networks. So the jokes that are about Kellogg's and Kraft don't make it through. Instead, Crowder goes out there to bat on Belafonte.

on behalf of big food. Do you know that it's not good for your kids to eat seed oils and processed sugars? You know that you want your kids to be healthier. You know that these kind of nexus of lobbying interests and media propaganda and donations are

all amounting to us, the population of countries like mine and countries like yours, not being regarded as civilians, but regarded as subjects, not being regarded as awakened wonders, but being regarded as a kind of resource. This is so significant because it's passing as anything

Isn't Bobby Kennedy ridiculous? Isn't it ludicrous? It's telling you not to take that guy seriously, but it's also telling you not to take the subject of your children's health seriously. That's why it's so dangerous and toxic because it's being passed off as entertainment. Guy in the room.

There were no worms lining up to eat portions of my brain. But I went to the Kellogg's Canada website and it turns out the Canadian Froot Loops actually have 26 ingredients. So that's okay then. That's okay then. And that doesn't even count the gravy.

That's the joke that we're at the amount of ingredients in Canadian Froot Loops. That's the joke. Not, hey, does big food have a stranglehold over American lives? Do big pharma need to face a reckoning for what went on during the pandemic? Is free speech being controlled? Why are people voting for this guy Trump, but we're all saying it's a Nazi night after night? Have we completely lost touch? ... gravy, which Canadians use to make fru-teen.

Did I say Crowder there? Of course I meant Colbert, sorry. Frutine! Trumps.

Crazy. Let's have a look at some hard facts. You might have seen this over the course of the weekend. We were checking it out. Okay. Between 2006 and 2019, our 10 FDA commissioners, nine out of 10 FDA commissioners went on to work for the pharmaceutical companies they were in charge of regulating. Nine out of 10 FDA commissioners. There's a good subject for a joke. That

That's a good show. Rather than the ingredients in Froot Loops, let's look at this. I'll go back to that. I'm using it. Approximately 65 percent of the FDA's drug review budget comes directly from the pharmaceutical industry. These are significant and important subjects. I'm assuming I'm in PIP now. Yeah, I'm assuming I'm in PIP, Isaac, for for the output.

Look at that list of various FDA employees that went on to work at either Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Moderna, Pfizer. Look at Andy Fauci at the bottom of it. The people

People they tell you are heroes, in the case of Anthony Fauci, do you remember that guy? He was like he was some sort of bureaucrat Elvis. Is it okay to find him sexy? Look at him. Have you seen Anthony Fauci interviewed on MSNBC? And look at the ridicule of a figure like RFK. Let me know in the comments and chat, who do you think is more beneficial to America and Americans, Anthony Fauci or Bobby Kennedy? Let me know. Right, now let's have a look at this. Here's some further facts about Big Food Facts.

and big commercials. These are the kind of things that late night entertainment talk show hosts should be drawing our attention to. Think about it for a while. For a long time, your country, that in a sense is the birthplace of stand-up comedy, created comedians that took on these subjects and then took them on in mainstream media. There are still comedians like it around, like Chappelle, I guess, being one, and Rogan, I suppose. Let's have a look at this. Big adverts

advertising, big agriculture, big agriculture spends more money on lobbying in Washington than the defense industry. Agribusiness interests have spent over half a billion dollars lobbying Congress over the past five years. Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and 27 other companies spend close to $40 million a year in an effort to make their voices heard by lawmakers and regulators. How do you think that that kind of influence affects

impacts america and trickles down lobbyists routinely transition from congress the federal trade commission and the fda or the usda to work on the behalf of a company or trade group influential groups that help shape u.s food policy and steer consumers towards nutritional project products have financial ties to the world's largest processed food companies the shift away from fresh whole foods like fruit and vegetables towards high california

calorific diets that feature heavily processed and extensively marketed food products has contributed to obesity rates that have reached historic highs. About 678,000 Americans die each year from chronic food illness. That toll is higher than all our combat deaths in every war in American history combined.

Like, what can we glean from those facts and the approach of Stephen Colbert in that bit? I'm not trying to morally assess Stephen Colbert, but the reason that bit made me so angry is because the entertainment industry is supposed to love you. It's supposed to be the feeling of love coming out of you.

coming out that's what entertainment is it's difficult to laugh at people if you don't think they love you and you don't love them well if that food's killing you what can you discern from that approach when someone like bobby kennedy who is willing to take on those interests is ridiculed and you're told not to take him seriously he's got a brain worm he killed a whale or whatever things that are admittedly kind of crazy sounding well it makes me feel like

America hates its subjects. Not all of America, of course not, but an aspect of the American entertainment industry. And it sort of disturbs me, obviously, because I've been part of it. Over 45% of US deaths from heart disease, stroke or diabetes are linked to diet. Two thirds of severe COVID cases resulting in hospitalization were attributed to four diet caused diseases, obesity, diabetes, hypertension and heart failure. In other words, these hospitalizations could have been prevented if the patient didn't have these diseases.

diseases are we in pip now isaac throughout this thanks man thank you for that reassurance the economic cost of nutrition related chronic diseases has been estimated 16 trillion dollars over the period from 2011 to 2020 take it off now please thank you so

What that tells you is something that's being trivialized, like the ascent of a figure like Bobby Kennedy. The fact that that 3% of votes was probably that he would have got as president, as a presidential nominee, has probably been significant in Trump's reelection. Tells you that America has changed and that there is a possibility to take on exactly these kind of powers. Big agriculture, big food, big farming.

pharma, the legacy media, the institutions that benefit from keeping America the same, keeping poor people of all cultures and colors eating disgusting food and living a life of sickness, obesity, diabetes and heart conditions, all

conditions that came to the forefront during the pandemic period, during which time you were censored if you tried to talk about that stuff. You were ridiculed if you had concerns about taking the medications that the very same interests, Big Pharma and the media, were advocating for in conjunction with the state, obviously, in that instance. So this is, we can kind of

can kind of believe this into being. This is an opportunity for real change. In particular, Bobby Kennedy is a person that I know. I can't claim to know other members of the potential government that will begin in January, but him, I know him and I know that he's serious. And even aside from any personal connection, go read that book.

he wrote about the real Anthony Fauci, that when it was the number one selling book in America, was banned from the New York Times bestsellers list for the same reason. People don't want you having access to that type of information. So whether you're talking about free speech or which people get smeared and ridiculed, the same themes occur again and again and again. The control of information, the control of your life. And what concerns me most of all is not the

when it's coming out of bureaucratic agencies or when it's coming out of corporations, but when it's coming through the media, because I suppose I've been part of that at different points. And I know what it's like if you stop being part of that. And I know how that serpent can turn and what it's writhing and Paris Stolzis is like when it tries to regurgitate you back out into the world. Do not trust legacy media in any of its forms, even in its soft forms, even when it's

claiming to campaign and advocate for good causes. They want you dumb.

They want you under total control. They want you incarcerated in the prison of your mind and in the prison of a sort of soft society where you eat soft foods, with your soft belly, where you can't stand up and oppose. There might now be the opportunity to oppose that kind of disgusting corruption in real time with real leadership. But that's just what I think. Why don't you let me know what you think in

in the comments and the chat. If you're watching this on YouTube, turn on the notification bell and subscribe because guess what? You might see this stuff now because some of these anti-free speech censorship bureaucracies are being challenged by how fast the world's changing and it's changing because of you. Remember,

Remember, Break Bread with Russell Brand is our new Christian show. You can watch that if you're a subscriber. We talk to significant, intellectual, influential Christians every week. We've had Tucker Carlson on. We've had Ruslan on. We've got one of my teachers, J. John, coming on. The brilliant Jonathan Pagiot coming on, who Jordan Pearson says is like a modern day Old Testament prophet. Fantastic. So don't trust legacy media.

Trust God and try your best to be a good person. But that's just what I think. Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat. OK, we're going to wrap up the show today. We will be back tomorrow. Remember, if you're an awakened wonder, I'm talking to you, sensitive hearts and Jim Earthsea. We will be tomorrow or the next day. We'll be doing a break bread soup and Captain Cyan and Insurgent Crow.

you guys will be back tomorrow with another show, not with more of the same, but with more of the different. Until then, if you can, stay free.
