Shownotes Transcript

Hello there you Awakening Wonders, thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand. Let's get right into this. If you're watching us on YouTube, we'll be with you for about 15 minutes there and then we'll be exclusively available to you on Rumble and consider becoming an Awakened Wonder so you can join us for conversations about Christianity and so that you can join us in

accessing the deep and potent resources required for the real change that appears to be coming. Certainly the world's changing pretty fast. Hi, I'm Steve Daines. My pronouns are Republican majority. I have a simple message for Chuck Schumer and for Bob Casey. It's over. I suppose what's interesting there is people that you wouldn't even imagine venturing into the territory of quips, happily quipping about

a subject for a while that for a while was a kind of lever of control and communication again not to harp on about christianity but if you like me accept jesus

In so doing, you are granted the opportunity to treat everyone with kindness and love. And that will cover various subsets of issues like speaking to people nicely, not hurting people's feelings. It's another thing that you wouldn't need the state to legislate for.

It's not necessary to give the state that kind of power. They'll use it to create disruption and division. That's just what I think, though. Anyway, obviously, let me know what you think in the comments and chat. Clearly, though, the culture war is reformulating around the new dynamics, the new power dynamics in the post-Trump part two world.

Like, after Dylan Mulvaney and Budweiser, you would have to think that that trope, the idea of woke advertising, might have expired, but it hasn't. And I suppose the people that make commercials for Jaguar may be many things, but is it possible that they are totally and completely out of touch? Or are they in politicizing their product in the way they speak?

advert appears to, although, gosh, or it be regarded as a as politicization to have people sort of all dolled up in burlesque, carnivalesque garb. Odd, isn't it that we live in a fully immersive political culture now?

They must think that there's a market for it. That's what I'm basically trying to say. They must think there's a market for it. How long have you lived here? I've been in your country with Jimmy's in the Rumble chat on and off for a while. I think I've gotten, as someone says, are you sick, Russell? AG, right, sick. Yeah. I think I've got some sort of chest infection. I don't think it's like a viral thing. I think it's, Russell, you look super relaxed. I am relaxed.

I am relaxed. I am relaxed. All right, let's have it. But let me just, let's look at this Jaguar advert. Obviously, it's something a lot of people are commentating on and talking about. And where is the culture war now? What's the point in a culture war? Let's have a look at this. Oh,

is already sort of quite trite. I recognise the palette and the imagery from like Benetton commercials in the late 80s. Benetton, as you should say it, they for a while made their bones with controversial commercials.

It's actually not innovative at all, is it? It's very retro. They're sort of like it's redolent with reference to Warhol and Jasper Johns. You know a bit about American pop art. Those things are sort of all present in the imagery, even when it comes to its commercial semiotic history. You can see Benetton and stuff like that.

What if there isn't even a car in the commercial? No, that won't work. We're trying to sell cars. Any of you that know anything about Edward Bernays, nephew of Sigmund Freud, credited with the advent and invention of the very profession of PR, know this, that the function of commercials is not to simply inform you of the availability of a product. Hey, do you like Topo Chico? It's fizzy water.

Delicious. Do you like trail mix? Delicious trail mix. Let's face it, you're just trying to get the chocolate bits and messing around with that cranberry bullshit while trying to get to the chocolate. How about positive? A rumble product. Or 1775? Rumble coffee.

Commercials used to be about letting you know that a product was available if you wanted it. Then they realized, specifically Edward Bernays realized, that using the psychological insights of Sigmund Freud, you could connect products to deep yearnings and fears within human beings and therefore buy

I drove a Tesla for the first time recently and...

Frankly, I mean, I found it quite difficult. It took a bit too much power. That's why I stay with Ram Longhorn. Oh, Ram Longhorn, I know what I'm doing in that baby. That big, mighty old truck. I feel like the full guy cruising around on the freeways up and down America 1, or do you call it US 1? Up and down, cruising through Miami and that thing. Now, what is that Jaguar commercial telling you?

It's sort of, those images are derived from pop art and haute couture, high fashion, and are referencing the culture. I know some of you in the chat, you won't like it that it's like got a kid dressed up in a frock, isn't it, at some point? It's got like, it's got a kid in a frock. In fact, I'm going to play it again, Isaac. Is that going to rock our worlds or am I going to be able to do it? Let's have another look.

Little bit 2001 Space Odyssey, you know, like the rocks and the sort of space scape. Bloody ridiculous, really. I mean, the truth is...

A Jaguar is just a vehicle. It's just a vehicle. That's all it is. That's all any of these things are. Car commercials used to be about freedom, didn't they? People used to ridicule the fact that they were on open roads. Look, it's look at the open road. You'll see you're cruising along a mountain highway. You know, they would often see people maybe on the salt plains of Utah or you'd see people on a sort of a spiraling mount, a mountain track.

In Europe, you'd see Vedant forestry in the background. But the fact is, is that as our culture, it seems in many ways, declines, we are...

false, in a deeper false idolatry. That's really what's behind that is an attempt to get you to worship a vehicle via the icons of the culture. There's no point worshiping a vehicle, but yeah, in a way, he's like something they're saying about a sexy girl in a car. Is it any different than when you used to see like an attractive woman draped over the hood of a vehicle? Is it any different from that? Just appealing to a different demographic.

How it will be used. I saw Elon Musk's tweet. Like, do you sell cars even? Like, you know, and that's like think about what Coca-Cola have always done. Coca-Cola have tried to connect their beverage with youth and joy or Christmas festivity when in fact it's just a sugary drink.

drink. That's really all it is. And in a sense, our challenge, I think, is to become discerning. So we're able to go, well, you know, Jaguar, it's just like a car, really. It can't make me feel better about myself. It can't fulfill this yearning within me. Indeed, even the theories of Sigmund Freud, other than a kind of

Excellent narrativization of the impact of family of origin experiences on your subsequent sexuality are largely voided because of their inability to incorporate a spiritual component. Freud being broadly an atheist and this distinction being what caused the renaissance.

and rift between him and Jung, who always believed there was some aspect to reality that couldn't be contained within Freud's limited, albeit brilliant, and epochal analysis that all problems arise

arose as a result of our sexual inhibitions and sexual prohibition and sexual repression. What I will say is I was in Phoenix quite recently for a little bit and I saw them like, you know, in Phoenix, they've got those Jaguar cars that are self-driving automated vehicles. Like they look a bit like, you know, when you see a Google car driving around your town that's taking shots for maps.

You know, and you think, you're giving that directly to the government. Of course we are. The government started the satellites in the first place, did a deal with Google, and now the information is going straight back to the government as well as private information about all of your searches and every single data point we can derive from your online activity to turn you into a product also. Made me feel that it's a dystopic organization. This is the fundamental question. Are Jaguar making a massive effort

error. Let me know in the comments and chat, yes or no, why you're in. A massive error in using these tropes and this tack when trying to advertise a product, or are they trying to reach a market that they imagine are accessible to them in the post-Trump world? Probably they had set up those adverts and that aesthetic some time ago, but they've gone ahead with it.

And I, do you think they have not observed what the culture's doing? And they're going, oh no, shit, everything people are now saying, like making jokes about pronouns now. And while hopefully people are respectful of all people and all identities, a principle covered by kindness and love doesn't need its own little subset. Maybe...

the people that are feeling aggrieved by Trump's victory, the people that are affiliated with wokeism because it's the only aspect of the Democratic Party campaigning ideology that has even a tangential value to it. The tangent being protect vulnerable people. That's in Christianity, it's in most theology, widows and orphans protect people. But some people will go like, perhaps my way of clinging on is to drive this Jaguar.

After all, the people in the commercial were wearing outrageous clothes, you know? What do you think? What do you think? Huge error. Why center to 2% of the popularization? That's a good point, RealMix. Yeah.

They know gay people easily part with their dollars for trends. Homophobic, I would say that is there, Joey Odo. And Dana Klassen, any car can be customized. I can imagine a pretty nice Jag if I had Russell's money. Freud was a pervert. Don't do that pinned message thing. It's a distraction and ultimately not working. So if you can stop doing that, it would be my ask on that.

Yeah, so there we go. This is what I feel about it. It's an interesting window into a culture in continual flux and an attempt to reach a market that might be grieving in the aftermath of the election. But that's just what I think. Let me know what you think in the comments and chat. If you're watching this on YouTube as a cut clip, then remember our content is on Rumble where we can speak freely and indeed speak.

We can live in the kind of peace, harmony and absolute acceptance alluded to in that Jaguar commercial. If you watch us on YouTube, we won't be there for much longer. We'll be there just for a little bit longer, actually. Now, we can't make this content without the support of our partners. In this case, it's Grand Canyon University. 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? GCU believe in equal opportunities and equip everyone to serve others in ways that promote human flourishing, creating, as they believe, a ripple effect of transformation.

Private, Christian, affordable education. Visit gcu.edu forward slash Russell. That's visit gcu.edu forward slash Russell. Two S's, two L's. Give it a try. Thanks. Part of this Brave New World story I'm eating trail mix. There's only one way because it's there.

You know that marshmallow test that they did at Stanford University where they gave kids one marshmallow and said, if you can resist eating that marshmallow, you can have two marshmallows. Where are the marshmallows? I was on that side. Hey, here's Sonny hosting off the view, learning that you can't, every time you dislike someone or disagree with them, simply accuse them of being a rapist, as has been the case with...

Matt Gaetz, here she is doing a live fact check. And fact checked in real life, a community note in real time. - How could you nominate someone with allegations of child trafficking across, or trafficking across state lines and having sex with a 17 year old? My understanding further on in the interview, they discussed the fact that once he finds out that she's 17, he stops having sex with her. - Sonny, you have a legal note. - I do have a legal note, thank you, Whoopi.

Matt Gaetz has long denied all allegations, calling the claims, quote, invented, and saying in a statement to ABC News that this false smear following a three-year criminal investigation should be viewed with great skepticism, that DOJ investigation was closed with no charges being brought. We'll be right back. Mm-mm.

Look at the view adjusting in real time. You mean to say that if we disagree with someone, or they're not a corporate globalist that can be controlled, and they're maybe anti-establishment and trying to get money out of politics, we can't just say they're a rapist and that's the end of it? Doesn't seem like it. Not unless they're actual rapists. Wow, it's going to be tough to make the view.

Okay, if you're watching us on YouTube, we're leaving you right now. So join us over in Rumble by simply clicking the link in the description because we've got some quite important things to talk about. All over the media, Democrats are trying to sort of cope with the reality that they've woken up in. Notably, I would say Joe Scarborough, he's having a tough time. Hey, I'd love to tighten this up if I can. This is bugging me, Isaac. And also...

What's a... I'm really interested in this bit. Oh, yeah, we're going to have a nuclear war if we're not careful. Like Joe Biden's launching missiles in Ukraine. Click the link in the description. Come on over to Rumble. See you in a second. You know, we don't have to go hard out when the count ends. We can go hard out when I sort of go, you know, when I do the clear cut. Can we lock this off? Thank you very much.

Yeah. Well, now phone's taking it on the chin. Okay, so here we go. Let's get into this. Morning Joe have acknowledged the fact that X is the media now. We've already seen them taking a little trip to Mar-a-Lago in an attempt to cozy up and readjust, playing golf with a man that they were calling Hitler just a matter of moments ago. Now they're acknowledging that X is the media.

Here's the media. X-Con, give it to you. As we used to say when I was a young man. One in five adults regularly get their news from influencers on social media. The number is even higher among younger Americans, with almost 40% under the age of 30 getting their news from those sources. According to the Pew Research Center, the social media site X...

remains the most widely accessed platform, followed by Instagram and YouTube. I mean, that comes obviously for political news. And Mike, that's the challenge. You grew up in a newsroom like Gene grew up in a newsroom. I mean, that's a lot of challenge. That's a challenge for a lot of mainstream media sources is

Do they make themselves relevant again to hear 20% of adults who actually get influencers on social media? I don't know. Make Morning Joe relevant again. I don't know. Maybe somebody who makes baskets and while they're making baskets, they look up and say, vote for candidate X. I don't know how they make themselves, how we make ourselves relevant again, because we can't compete with 20 second snippets on an iPhone walking up the street.

I can't compete with a snippet. I can't compete with people telling the truth. I can't compete with people not amplifying the message of the government and globalist corporatists and pretending it's news. I can't compete with a snippet. iPhone walking up getting your entire news digest of the day in less than a minute on your phone as you're walking in the crowd with coffee and wine.

That's not what social media is. Did you see Joe Rogan and Donald Trump? Three and a half hours. It's not. Oh, it's just a snippet. A three and a half hour snippet where a person is forced to prove that they're a human being and talk about a variety of subjects without doing weird body movements and seeming like a drunk ant.

I don't know how we catch up to that. Yeah, so Gene Robinson, do you agree? Yeah, if anyone uses snippets, it's their legacy media. What about them snippets where they try to make it look like Kamala had said...

pro-Muslim stuff to one audience, pro-Judaic stuff to another audience in order to navigate the tricky territory of ongoing conflict in the Middle East. If anyone's using snippets, it's them. Gene Robinson, do you agree with Mike? Because I find this hard to believe that younger voters would be more interested in getting an entertaining 20-second news snippet than watching... It's snippets. The problem with snippets is these kids. They

They only like snippets. Wicked

over here on Morning Joe. Did you not see me interviewing Anthony Fauci where I had to stop myself for lating the guy halfway through it? Have you not seen me claiming that Joe Biden is a sharper's attack? Why do these kids want snippets? I've been watching a cable news show for four hours from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. This seems like an easy choice to us here. What is wrong with these people? Exactly. I mean,

Look, if I knew the answer, you know, I would implement it immediately. Right. And and and reverse this. But we have to compete. I mean, the answer is we don't know how to compete with these social media basket making influencers or whatever. But but we have to. That's what they're doing. They're making baskets over there.

They're still making the same mistake they were making prior to the election. Instead of being open-hearted, they are condemning their opponents as idiots. They are condemning social media. They're trying to bring down and shut down independent media contributors. I have deep personal experience of this, that if you are outspoken in a way that is truly detrimental to the interests of the establishment, what you will find is that the establishment will come for you in a variety of ways. And now, with it being proven that independent media is more a

than their old school, centralized, corporately funded, big pharma supporting generals from the military industrial complex advocating for war platforming. They're trying to bring that down. Did you see the other day that Lex Friedman's done a couple of hours long commercial, no, interview with Javier Millie. What are they going to call that? That's a snippet. That's a three hour snippet. These snippets are ridiculous.

But we have to. And so we've got to figure out ways to do it. And maybe maybe we make our own 20 second snippets and we meet viewers where they are.

You know, why don't we have an honest conversation on Morning Joe itself? Where we say, you know, well, X is the news now. How do we remain relevant? This conversation we're having now, behind the scenes, should be the show. Us having a meltdown behind the scenes could be Morning Joe. We can tell him what we're feeling. We can

Tell him that we're having to go to Mar-a-Lago now to bend the knee to Donald Trump in an attempt to remain relevant. And what we'll do mostly is we will blame snippets. It's snippets have done this to us. Make America snippets. Where they are because they're not here. That's the problem.

Oh man, it's extraordinary to watch them panic him. Lots of people are trying to fight back against X by simply not going on it. Don Lemon has departed, but I didn't know Don Lemon was even on X. He only goes on to X to tell you that he's leaving it. I'm only in here to tell you that I'm coming away from here. You hate X and Don Lemon said, I'm leaving X. There's no good discussions to be had here. Yeah, I

It's not like John Lennon leaving the Beatles, is it? It's like, I don't know or care where Don Lemon is. Yeah, it's fucking boo-hoo. Oh, you don't like criticism. You don't like criticism. If you want to get into this game, okay, you want to get into the online game, the online game's different. In the online game, you get judged by who you fucking actually are, dude. It's not about your producers and your teleprompter and shut up.

You're on your own people think you're stupid you're gonna hear it and it might be because you're stupid It might be look people say a lot of people are stupid that are not stupid I've seen people say brilliant people. I've seen people say Elon Musk is stupid. I have seen that I've seen that I've seen there's you're gonna get it no matter what you're gonna get it Everyone's gonna get it, but if everybody's saying you're stupid, I

Maybe you might be stupid you might be stupid He might have been protected from that stupid by these network shows if you want to exist online And you don't like criticism on Twitter or you think there's disinformation on Twitter Community notes on Twitter is the greatest fucking thing that's ever been created Because people get to look through the community notes and find out oh that is bullshit And here's why it's bullshit or oh that actually is true even though it sounds crazy and people are protesting. It's actually true. I

That's fun. That's good. We learned something. If you can't handle that, well, you can go wherever. Where do you go now? Where do you go? Where do you go? Threads? What? Nobody goes to Threads. But they were for a while. Are you crazy? Seriously? They were for a while. Yeah. It's not going to work, I don't think. No. Threads! I'm going to Threads! Threads is where you'll find me!

You might not know that in my country, the United Kingdom, farmers have taken to the streets to protest further punitive measures. This time not being promoted by the EU. Britain left the EU, but being promoted by Europe.

the British government, who are essentially now a centralist WEF warmongering government. They're trying to destroy the lives of British citizens in favour of an agenda, a global war agenda, that can never ever be won unless by victory you mean ordinary people are annihilated by nuclear strikes.

their targets and their victims are British farmers. And the problem is with destroying British agriculture is you won't have no food left. The problem is, is that they are significant, but they're a significant portion of the population. I don't mean by their numbers, but by their duties and by their tasks and by their willingness to get

out on the street with tractors. Now, if you're not British, you might not know about Jeremy Clarkson, I guess unless you're a Top Gear fan. The car show that he fronted for years that was a global phenomenon and success. Jeremy Clarkson is now a farm owner, and therefore I suppose a farmer, himself.

and he was participating in these farm protests where like everywhere in the world, like Sri Lanka and India and Germany and the Netherlands, farmers are protesting almost as if there is some sort of global agenda against farmers. If farmers everywhere are protesting like how people are protesting everywhere about free speech prohibition, it's likely that there's possibly a centralized almost new world order style agenda being pursued. Do you think that's possible? Let me know in the comments in the chat. So this farm

Farm protest in the UK had notable attendees like Jeremy Clarkson, like Nigel Farage. And as usual with farm protests, they were like hay bales being put up in the street and maybe some sewage and slurry being dumped. But who's going to smell that in Westminster? That's our equivalent of Capitol Hill, where all the politicians are. Anyway, here's Jeremy Clarkson being confronted by a BBC. Remember, that's

taxpayer-funded state media journalist who's saying that he has dubious undergirdings for his own participation in the protest and that the farmers' protests themselves are illegitimate. Remember,

That's what the powerful have always done. They smear their opponents and bring them down. And if there is a legitimate reason to protest, like, hey, why are you trying to destroy farmers? Why are you trying to do that? In this instance specifically, it's because they're imposing a type of inheritance tax

that's particularly punitive to farmers who don't have a lot of cash in their business, their businesses in their assets. And if they're hit with this tax, it's going to annihilate their model. And some people think that's the point, to annihilate their model so that farmland can be acquired at scale by billionaires. Is that happening anywhere? If you notice that, let me know in the comments and chat. Are there any notable people

buying up farmland in your country, for example? Are there various other ecologically justified measures that are destroying farmers in Germany and all across Europe and across the world? Could there be a reason behind it? Or does it make you a conspiracy theorist? Now, in the same way that you can't just go on The View and call people a rapist unless they've been convicted of

rape in a court of law. You also now can't just call someone a conspiracy theorist if they say stuff like, "It's a bit weird, innit? The farmers all over the world are protesting. Does that suggest that there might be some agenda against farmers? And why would there be an agenda against farmers?" Because if people can grow food and access food, even if it came to the moment where inconceivable

And ludicrous measures of control were imposed. People could reject them and say, well, what we're going to do is we're going to set up our own parallel systems. We reject you. We reject your authority. I'm going to have a nibble on this turnip and a bite on this cow butt. You know, it's like if you've got control of food, you've got ultimate control of people. If you've got control of food, water, resources, shelter, if you can compel people to carry digital ID, if you can stop them from traveling, if they didn't take the latest shot or if they didn't, uh,

pay the latest tax that you've levied in order to protect them from this or that. So these farm protests are pretty significant and pretty important. And Jeremy Clarkson is a person who's always been a bit like me, I suppose, controversial in my country. He's one of those people that every so often there's a great big scandal

he punches someone in the face on a TV show or something. That might not be a literal example. I'm kind of half remembering it. Anyway, I'm just letting you know what Jeremy Clarkson represents. In a sense, he's a kind of populist who, if he ended in a politics, would make a real impact, let me tell you that. And in a way, we're all in politics now because everything is becoming politicized because if you start...

Why are you here Mr Clarkson? Well because I'm here to support farmers. Right. Are you angry?

It's difficult to be angry on somebody else's behalf. That's like being, yes, no, I'm not angry on someone else's behalf. Right. So it's not about you. It's not about your farm and the fact that you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax. Classic BBC there. Is it? Oh, yeah. It's not the fact that I bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax.

The fact. You told the Sunday Times in 2021 that's why you bought it. These people. Sorry? BBC. OK, let's start from the beginning. Sure. I wanted a shoot, OK? That's even worse to the BBC. I wanted a shoot, which comes with the benefit of not having to pay inheritance tax. Now I do.

But people like me will simply put it in a trust. And so long as I live for seven years, that's fine. And as my daughter said, you will live for seven years. You might be in a deep freeze at the end of it, but you will live for seven years. But it's incredibly time consuming to have to do that. And why should all these people have to do that? Why should they? So one of the reasons Rachel Reeves says she brought this in is to stop wealthy people using it as a way of... No, that was the only reason she did.

Well, no, the other reason was to raise money for public services. Are you listening to this? Have you tried to get a GP appointment lately? Yes, I just recently had a heart attack. OK, so you know it's tough.

Yes. So where should they get the money from if it's not from farmers? Stop funding unnecessary wars all around the world, for example. From farmers. We hear that, everyone. BBC thinks you should be paying for everything. OK, do you know how many people pay inheritance taxes? Stop charging people for the BBC experience.

It's 4% of estates. What? 4% of estates. 4% pay inheritance tax. 96% of the population of the UK. Ensure that massive global corporations like Apple...

YouTube pay taxes in the country where they're running their businesses from, global corporations. Why don't we get on with this? And also while we're at it, start shutting down some legacy media organisations. We don't need them anymore. It does not pay inheritance tax. After this becomes law, 96% of farmers will. Where have you got that figure from?

Who here, can I just ask, who here is going to be unaffected? New media versus old media. Fantastic new war we're in now. Going to be unaffected by these changes? No one. Right. Where have you got the 96% figure? Well, you've got 96%, well, the same place that Rachel Reeves does, from the middle of her head. Right. From the sixth form debating society that she was no doubt a member of. Okay. Which formed her opinions and yours.

I am not expressing opinions. I'm literally asking you questions. You know that, Mr Clarkson. So what is your message to this government? Please back down, please. And get the money from where? That's amazing. She's saying she's not editorialising. I've been in that position before. OK, I'm just asking questions. I'm just asking questions. Please back down. Stop punishing and destroying farmers.

Get the money from where? You can't have an opinion unless you've got a solution to all of the world's problems. I've been on the roundabout that he's on right there. What the media do is they act in concordance with centralized power. They don't know they're doing it. That woman there, Victoria Derbyshire, I believe her name is, isn't like, you know, she's not been briefed that.

morning and been told, right, this is how you support the agenda of WEF-sponsored politicians like Keir Starmer. This is how you participate in the destruction of farmers. She doesn't know she's doing that. That's the beauty and ingenuity of the system. The professional class believe, believe like I believe in Jesus Christ. They are doing the right thing. All

all the while they're destroying the lives of ordinary people. Okay, so what's your solution then? What are we going to tax? Jelly babies? People's shoes? Where's the money going to come from? How about this? How about decentralize all power wherever possible? How about have referenda on every subject as close to the individuals affected by it as possible? How about a new model? How about we accept together that things are

working? How about we don't allow global corporate interests to run our country? Unelected bodies, whether that's the EU, they're gone out of Britain, but NATO still seem to have an incredible impact, or the WHO that want to be able to levy taxes in our country and your country and across the world. How about we allow the will of the people to be represented, and when people rise up and protest, we don't say, oh, they're stupid, they stink, they're farmers, they're greedy, they must be racist or rapist. How about we listen to them? Because after all, isn't the whole

urgency behind all of their piety. I'm talking about the BBC and the globalist governments. We're here to help people. We believe in democracy. We've got to have a war in every single country we can list in order to get them democracy. If you believe in democracy so much, start listening to people. Well, they've got 40 billion. I'll tell you where you go. Walk into any of the offices around here. If you don't understand what somebody's job is, fire them.

What's your job? Actually, I'm working here on a new gut microbiome that's going to make people incredibly healthy by nurturing these very subtle bacteria. I don't understand that. Fuck off. That's amazing. I mean, look, I take his point. What Jeremy Clarkson was, of course, saying is,

People that work in positions of government that are oddly inaccessible and sort of circuitous, circular positions about the maintenance of power. Get rid of them. Reduce the size of government. These great apparatus that are designed mainly, it seems, to asphyxiate the will of the people. Get rid of them. Stop buying their claim that they're here to protect us because they don't protect us. They don't protect us. Let's work out at the level of the borough government.

what we need at the level of the nation, what's required and how to fund it and support it. There's yield to this new populism. Let's embrace it. Let's maybe add to it the notion of decentralization so different communities could be run autonomously on the basis of their own determination.

But there are going to have to be some acceptance of universal principles, and that's where the quarrel will truly begin. Do you agree on the principle of virtue or kindness? What principles of justice do you believe in and would you be prepared to agree on? And from where will they be derived? Mankind's reason or will they be...

arrived from a belief in something incredible and something powerful that goes way beyond the remit of the bureaucrats, the mandarins, and those that advocate for further and further centralized power in their blissful utopian new world order where all you have to do, my friend, is go to sleep forever dreaming their dreams on their behalf. I would say resist that with your last drop of blood.

But that's just what I think. Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat. If you're watching this on YouTube, turn on the notification bell and subscribe. Okay, what's going to happen now? Oh yeah, we make this in conjunction with our partners, and I believe these are our friends at 1775 Coffee. As you can see, I like coffee. In fact, I'd like one right now. Can I have a coffee from that place across the road? It would be delicious. I like to drink it from a little china cup. Here is what I'll be drinking. 1775, it was a tough year for the Brits. Great year for America. Have a look.

- Let's be honest, most K-cup pods are serving you moldy, pesticide-laden rubbish. Chains like Dunkin', they're stinking the place out with their stale coffee and expecting you to say cheers. 1775 Coffee makes sure you don't have to drink a chemical soup when you want a caffeine lift. 1775 Coffee steps in to slap the mediocrity right out of the competition.

Their K-cup pods are filled with single origin, high altitude beans, handpicked by people who know what flavour actually is. It's coffee that will slap your brain fast awake, faster in fact than a government scandal. Who doesn't need an injection of this new caffeine inflection? Kamala Biden?

Get this stuff down here. You've got a choice of medium roast, dark roast and mushroom blend. Yeah, actual mushrooms like lion's mane and reishi to boost your brain power as well as giving you an immediate lift.

Because let's be honest, if your coffee isn't strong enough to overthrow a small government, what's the point? This coffee is for people who don't want a participation trophy. This is coffee for winners. Go to 1775coffee.com, grab your 24-pack and tell Corporate Coffee to take a hike. That's go to 1775coffee.com, grab your 24-pack and tell Corporate Coffee to take a hike. Caffeine that will help you overthrow the powerful.

Hiya! There is a great power surging through us right now, if only we could be open to it, if only we could allow ourselves to access the divine instead of being tethered here in their world of entanglement, red tape, bureaucracy and negative messaging, where naught but sugar or pornography is offered to get you through the dreadful day. And they call it freedom.

Anyway, there's an offer of some caffeine. It's one of the things that gets me through my day while I accept my fallen condition here as a human being.

Okay, one of the things I'm sure we'd like to avoid whether we're Democrats or Republicans or whether we believe the new emergent systems of politics will come about if only we allow ourselves to awaken and follow the divine guidance available to us all. One thing we can probably agree on, can we? Is we don't want a nuclear war with Russia. So why is it that the United Kingdom

appear to be sort of right up for a nuclear war with Russia, certainly are being sort of passive aggressive and sort of slightly stupid on the subject of like, well, this is entirely Putin's fault. If he doesn't want a nuclear war, it's down to him. Like he's talking about sort of some sort of like breakup. He's talking about a quarrel in a playground instead of a nuclear winter.

Also, Thomas Massey, who's generally, wouldn't you say, one of the most reliable people in political life, is calling for Biden's impeachment for using long-range missiles inside Russian territory, a needless provocation of Vladimir Putin at the moment. Hopefully, one might assume at least, Putin's already in communication with Trump and will hopefully pull back from the brink of apocalyptic strikes rather than have a nuclear war before there's an opportunity to at least

experience what 2024 Trump might have been like. So let's have a look right now at whether or not we're going to be able to get to the inauguration without a nuclear war. Is Putin, let me know in the comments and chat,

for a nuclear conflict. It would seem to me that he's the kind of, very kind of person that would do that if provoked. So maybe we should just, you know, keep provoking him and find out. There have been threats from the Kremlin after Ukraine fired American long-range missiles into Russia for the first time. President Vladimir Putin has now revised a key military doctrine, lowering the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons. On the 1,000th day of the conflict...

A move that could change the course of the war. Ukraine launching six American-supplied ballistic rockets into Russia, reportedly hitting a military depot. We will be taking this as a qualitatively new phase of the Western war against Russia.

Against Russia?

Hours earlier, Vladimir Putin signed a revised nuclear doctrine. Russia now opening the door for a nuclear response if necessary.

if attacked despite what russia says neither the united states nor nato pose any threat to russia as night fell 1 000 candles were lit signifying 1 000 days since the start of the war 1 000 days i i think it's enough to understand that putin doesn't want any peace why don't we just light 1 000 candles and send 1 000 missiles into russian territory it's not band-aid it's not

heal the world. This is an actual war. We don't need Instagram moments of lit candles and futile ludicrous gestures. We need adult diplomacy and an end to this escalating war. Hopefully, Russia don't have access to any meaningful retaliatory measures. Perhaps the dead hand system, the Russian dead hand system, which is the name of the nuclear system they do have, is just some sort of

pirate technology from the mind of Jack Sparrow. Let's read about it so we know exactly what we could all be facing when we wake up to a new grey and ashen dawn breathing radiation into our once cleaned lungs. The Dead Hand or Perima is a Cold War era automated nuclear command system developed by the Soviet Union.

with whom Reagan had a deal not to impede on former Soviet territory by even one inch which has been breached by NATO in your name with your money to ensure retaliation even if its leadership was destroyed in a nuclear strike.

Oh.

capability amidst evolving threats. So it's not all bad news. We've got a decrepit president on the brink of departure. It's making strikes into Russian territory that could very easily bring about the end of the world. That does seem negative, but we

But we've also got 1775 coffee. So it's not all bad news, is it? Let's have a look at what Thomas Massey has to say on the subject. By authorizing long-range missiles to strike inside Russia, Biden is committing an unconstitutional act of war. Remember, you've got a constitution that endangers the lives of all your citizens. These are the kind of things that just happen now. Donald Trump, he's a rapist. Okay, what about these unconstitutional acts of war?

Don't worry about that. He's adorable. He's a lovely old guy. Didn't you see him just wandering off into the Amazon? Who couldn't love him? This is an impeachable offense, but the reality is he's an emasculated puppet of the deep state. That does appear to be the reality. Talking about emasculated puppets of the deep state, Britain has a prime minister called Keir Starmer, who on literally day one of being elected into office,

on a dubious landslide mandate due to the nature of our electoral system

made as his first act as prime minister a commitment to continue to use UK taxpayer money to perpetuate an unwinnable war against Russia, rather than use the UK's diplomatic influence to bring about a peaceful solution. Perhaps because when there was a peace deal on the table between Zelensky and Putin, it was Boris Johnson, presumably at the behest and suggestion of Joe Biden, that went to Kiev to break that deal down and ensure that it didn't take place.

here he is reassuring a nervous population that there's no way there's going to be a nuclear war we won't allow it we're your leaders we love the planet and the people above all else we consider it our duty as servants of god to make sure that we come to some sort of peaceful diplomatic agreement with putin whatever our

differences are. Even if we believe him to be a war criminal and a monster and the aggressor in this conflict, we can see that there can be no victory for Ukraine if there are nuclear strikes across Europe and America. So of course what we're going to do is whatever is necessary to bring about a peaceful solution. Here is Keir Starmer saying, you know, I'm being him now.

I'm going to go to Moscow right now and I'm going to resolve this. I was born for this moment. Let's bring about peace. Let's acknowledge that Russia are a mighty nation, always have been, and that they're not going to be kowtowed by threats of a bureaucratic entity like NATO that have spoken ill of them, that have tried to exploit them, that have reneged on deals. And there's a complex history between Ukraine and Russia and a significant portion of the Russian population

population of Ukrainians that are ethnically Russian within their territory that want some kind of peaceful conclusion to this matter. Let's see if we can bring that about. That's why we got into politics, isn't it? It certainly wasn't to serve globalism and corporatism and to turn everything into a crime and to throw people in a jail for social media posts while allowing the nation's fabric to be disrupted and besmirched

by unchecked migration and not investigating correctly the murder of literal children, we're going to really turn this country around. We're going to be transparent with you and we're going to bring about a solution. That is what Keir Starmer is about to say. I'm 100% confident in it. Just quickly, Russia has also threatened nuclear escalation. Are you comfortable with that when people at home are watching this, worrying that you could put us at risk?

Well, firstly, my dad was a toolmaker. Does that help anyone? Well, it's very important. It's very important that we're steadfast in our support for Ukraine. Russia is the aggressor. Even if unleashes... The aggressor.

It's not far. Who denied it, supplied it? Who smelt it, dealt it? I would say to Putin, you smelt this nuclear war, you dealt it, and you know, you'll smell that radiation as it drifts back across Europe after you've blown up London. Russia has to be the one that makes the move to stop this war. You have to. It's your turn. It's your turn to bring about peace. I won't bring about peace. My dad was a

We have to stop this war. It's within their gift. But we must support Ukraine. It's impacting not just Ukraine, it's impacting the rest of the world, including the UK. Is your message to viewers back home that there will not be a nuclear war? Because that is what Russia is threatening. My message is that we need to ensure that Ukraine is put in the best possible position. Look at his eyes. Look at his eyes. Is this human being, like you or I, the same as us?

In a way, he's been placed on some preposterous peninsula of power.

a place no person should stand alone or maybe even stand at all, particularly not if they are a mere conduit for powers that are way beyond them, powers that should in fact be beyond any of us. From where will the principles be derived to prevent this situation escalating further? This is a thousand days of conflict and there is a very high cost if Russian aggression is seen to pay off.

Yeah, I'd say that Armageddon is a pretty high-cost Starmageddon. You are a good leader. I get it now. I just wasn't clever enough to understand why Armageddon is a good thing. Well, thanks for explaining. I'll just go and lay down in a coffin and wait for death. Hopefully...

What will be granted are a class of leaders that are able to handle this while we ourselves navigate to new ways of governing communities, breaking down power wherever possible, imposing regulation and measures that are truly and meaningfully going to redress the terrible impact

imbalance exposed during the pandemic era and easily registered, recognized, discerned and observed through the transfer of wealth that took place during that time. You could look at who benefited from the pandemic, make a list of those corporations and bureaucratic entities and even individuals and say, these are probably the people that benefit from crisis. If we're going to have government at all, let's make sure that we use the government to impede their interests rather

than continue to facilitate and support those interests whether they are military or pharmaceutical or big tech. Hopefully what we don't have is a situation where state power and corporate power have aloited the degree where ultimately we have the fascism that Benito Mussolini described only stripped of its feathery caps and its amusing mustaches and replaced instead with a dead bureaucratic grin. But hey, that's just what I think. Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and chat if we come together

with powerful information derived from within you, we can oppose this, we can be victorious, we can overcome. I believe it very deeply. If you're watching this on YouTube, turn on the notification bell and subscribe and consider becoming an Awaken Wonder and joining us when we have our glorious conversations with Christians from which my purview is daily benefiting. Here's Jack Posobiec and I talking about, hmm,

God saving Trump. Yeah, let's have a look at that. Why not? This is the first time and really since I think he survived his brush with death earlier this year when Trump was at that field in Butler, Pennsylvania.

we saw not only did he immediately for the first time, and he doesn't usually talk like this. He doesn't usually use religious language or theological language. The very first thing he said was it was God alone. And he gave thanks to God for saving him. And then this huge public embrace of God and Christianity from Trump that we've never seen before, I think in his entire life,

Okay, join us. We have those conversations pretty regularly. Let me know what you want to see, guys. Do you want to see more Democrats fretting like Jon Stewart? What could I offer you? Foolproof election forecaster roasted by chink. Is it Weeger? How do you say chinks? Can someone phonetically tell me? You know it, do you, Isaac?

Cenk Uygur, Cenk Uygur of Young Turks. Cenk Uygur, he gets angry. This is sort of a big viral clip. Let me know if you want to watch that. That's number one. Or do you want to watch Joe Scarborough angry? Or do you want to see Bill Maher torturing the Democrats for doubling down on what got them effed in the first place? Or do you want to see Joe Rogan guaranteeing that Biden voted for Trump? Here's the numbers. One, Cenk. Two, Jon Stewart. Three, Cenk.

Joe Rogan. You're not voting for them as people, by the way, because I know you would all probably vote for Joe Rogan, wouldn't you, on that basis? But, you know, sort of the clips themselves. Let me know what you want. And it's got to be a one, two, three, four, so as I can...

Understand it because I'm a man with many limitations. That's simply what I am. Love you saying four because you did vote for Joe Rogan because I knew you would do that. And that's how commercials work. All right. That's how advertising works. So they're hoping that in spite of all the controversy, enough people will see that Jaguar commercial and go, see, this is a company that cares about me. I'm going to buy one of those fucking Jaguars and I'll show you mummy and daddy.

I'll show you. All right. We've inadvertently connected it to Joe Rogan, who you like. So Joe Rogan has won. So that's the one I'm going to do. That's what you asked for. Joe Biden towards the end of his presidency became kind of like an agent, didn't he? The MAGA campaign, putting on MAGA hats, letting people know that Kamala was a bit hapless and hopeless and saying stuff that I mean, he did some really weird things, didn't he?

Right up to wandering into that Amazon for it. I mean what an extraordinary guy he is Joe Rogan though has Recently guaranteed us using insights that I would like to verify that Biden voted for Trump. Do you believe that's possible is such a thing possible? You know what my fucking favorite things of this whole election cycle has been yesterday

When Biden and Trump sat down in the White House, Biden voted for Trump. I guarantee it. I fucking guarantee it. I never saw that dude so happy in his fucking life. He lost. His party lost. He was happy. When Obama had to shake hands with Trump and do the whole transition thing, Obama looked like, Jesus Christ. Look at Biden. God.

Look at his fucking smile, dude! Trump's like, uh, whatever. Look at his fucking smile, man. That's like when your kid gets married. That dude looks like a hairless cat. Look at him. It's crazy. First of all, what have they done to him? What have they done to his face? Go back to the other picture because it was more high res.

Look at his mug, man. First of all, for sure he's got something going on with his forehead. They Botoxed the shit out of his forehead. They gave him a facelift for sure. There was a bunch of different things they did, which very ill-advised, by the way, folks. Look at Trump. He looks like shit. No one cares. Everyone loves him. You don't look better if you get your face pulled back like a lizard. You just look more like a lizard. Everybody thinks you're a lizard already. But look at that smile. That motherfucker's never been happier in his life.

In his life. He's like, that bitch. She went down. You can't tell me he wasn't happy. Like, when he put that MAGA hat on. You ever see that? Oh, yeah, yeah. He put the MAGA hat on. And he took it with him on the plane. Oh.

I guarantee you, I guarantee you that motherfucker was happy. He had a giant smile on his face. He said, welcome back to him. I thought it was Hitler. I thought he was dangerous. That's what they all said, right? It's like, hey, this is the, he's a threat to democracy. I thought he was a Nazi. And then all of a sudden it's like, ah, hey.

We're going to have a smooth transition here. This was the guy that you said was sharp as a tack. He was going to be up until four months ago. Four months ago, that guy was going to be running again. And now here he is, smiling like a Cheshire cat. There you go. He voted for Trump. That seems to be the conclusion. All right. Hey, listen, you lot. We've got some brilliant shows coming up.

This week? Hopefully they've written down so I can throw to them. Bring them over, guys. Write it down in a way that I can read. I know that Neil Oliver will be Thursday's show, but Friday's show I need reminding of.

Laura Logan. Yeah. Say it loud, mate. It doesn't matter. People know there's people in the room. We're not trying to pretend I'm alone in a capsule. Laura Logan. Yeah. Laura Logan is going to be coming on on Friday. So that's Thursday show. And we've got a bio and a throw to that. So take a note of that. All right, guys. Thanks very much for joining us today. We'll be back tomorrow. Not with more of the same, but more different until then. If you can stay free.
