There you awakening wonders, thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand. Is that what it says? I've got a raw deal, now I'm looking for a studio. That's what someone said in here. Are you a mason? No, I'm not a mason. Will you be sharing your freshly baked food? Yes, I will. This is going to be an amazing show today because it's...

it's extraordinary everything that's going on we'll talk about the pages and walkie-talkies exploding and we'll talk about the distinction between war and terror and where the line is drawn and an issue we've talked about before in our show like who can be killed and who can't be killed those kind of politics hey awakened wonders like uh mabel queenie and mikey static that's you is that you mikey who i know from who i met it is isn't it that's mikey who i met in phoenix arizona

Is that you? We were in Phoenix, Arizona recently and I met Mikey. We've got so many exciting things to talk to you about. Not least of all, I'm going to be there at Rescue the Republic pretty soon with Brett Weinstein. I think there's a lot of people there, RFK. I mean, you just have to glance at the boat and tell me who you can spot. If you can spot them on that boat, they're going to be there that day. Go back to monitor Alistair after an asset comes up, mate. Hey, did you know earlier in the week we had Vivek Ramaswamy come in here?

and Vivek and I discussed the... What was it we were discussing? We were discussing the assassination attempts, actually.

One of the things that's most alarming about the assassination attempts, just as a citizen, was watching this.

is the fact that it has become almost normalized in the way that this has been covered. And I think that's the saddest part about this. Just over two months ago was an assassination attempt. As recently as several weeks ago, it was not even talked about really anymore. And then there was the second assassination attempt. And as a matter of days later, it's not really discussed anymore. When these should be

exceptional appalling rare historical events that'll be in the history books for kids a century from now and yet forget about a century from now even days from then it's almost as though it's forgotten as though it's not in social media cycle anymore it's a pretty good conversation you're like I think hey we are

broadcasting this from a secret location so you may notice tell me in the chat that the quality is not as good as usual let me know if that bothers you in any way because for the next little while we're going to be doing this show mobile

we're going to be moving between the raindrops moving between the shadows we've got a lot to talk about man um let me jump into it with you yeah i don't know what you like you want me to talk about uh puff daddy stuff diddy stuff now man that is getting weird it seems like he's a show business epstein then freak offs don't sound good and the thing is with him is there's a lot of images of that guy with really powerful famous people we'll be following that story and let me know what you guys think about it and we'll sort of

We'll touch on it later. Don't take that the wrong way. It's not a freak-off. It's not a freak-off, baby. Let's have a look at Kamala Harris talking about the pressures of being... The problem of being a role model. As our great Deepak Shakur used to say...

a role is something you play a model is something you make both them things are fake and i'm for real god bless your eternal soul tupac let's see what kamala said you know i was the first person to be a woman at attorney general california i was the first woman to be elected district attorney of san francisco i was the first person of color to be elected attorney general california whatever first first first welcome to the role model club

I don't think she can become president, she's too unusual. It's not unusual but first, first, first.

That's not normal conduct, I think, is it? There's an incredible lack of self-awareness on display there. Have you seen how many odd things the Waltz family have done? Like Tim Waltz, Mrs. Waltz. It's really odd when people involve their spouses. I'm not getting enough of Kamala's husband. Do you? Bring him to the forefront. What's he been? What's that?

That baby being kept in the corner. Here's Tim Walz just assuring us that free speech is not something that can be in any way guaranteed. I think we need to push back on this. There's no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech and especially around our democracy.

That's amazing because hate speech and misinformation around our democracy means there has to be an arbiter of what constitutes misinformation and hate speech. And it's this ability to arbitrate what constitutes misinformation and what constitutes hate speech which is granting incredible authority and power to already overly empowered bureaucracies.

as a testimony for some kind of neutrality even though I recognize the impossibility of such a state. What if power changes hands? What if you legislate for the ability to censor what is deemed misinformation and then Trump wins? Then he would have that power. This is why I think it's so important for us to connect with

principles rather than outcomes. Don't you think, like, I wonder what it would be like if CNN, MSNBC, and this includes Fox just to make sure that the experiment works, wouldn't it be good if they were given the outlines of a story saying, "This group has done this thing to this group."

But we're not going to tell you what the group is, we're only going to tell you what the thing is. We're not going to tell you who the targets are and who the perpetrators are. And then you can use the principle, like whether it's viable or right to use explosives in a foreign country. And if it's alright to use explosives in a foreign country, then everyone should be okay to use explosives in a foreign country. And if it's alright for children to be killed, then I suppose everyone's got the right to kill children.

And quite soon I suppose you get to a point of something approaching a universal position of, well I wouldn't want my children to be killed, I wouldn't mind if someone for a while would suspend them in like that thing that Han Solo was in, just to give me a break, but killing children...

Surely that's as close to universal as we are likely to get. And you'll note, as well as the fast news cycles, fast threshing ability to almost remove storage just because of the pace that the cycle's moving at, they also entirely...

obviate stories that are no use to them like do you not consider bobby kennedy and trump working together on a campaign to be significant somebody from the left of the democrats and somebody that's regarded as a very right-wing figure certainly has been ever since he ran doesn't that suggest there's something of an anti-establishment consensus emerging or

you know we're deep into semantic territory anyway here's bobby kennedy talking about uh the the tendency of the democratic party to move towards censorship yeah killing adults is an abomination you're right i also you're right adults i'm an adult i don't want to be killed i just i don't feel at home with people who believe in censorship i think it's disqualified see that guy on the edge cali means see him i know him it's that guy there cali means

See him? Yeah? I know him. Charlie Kirk is absolutely... What a fascinating individual Charlie Kirk is. He's so clever, isn't he? And unusual. I did some stuff with him at the RNC. Do you know what I've learned? A lot of times my teasing does not go over very well. Not necessarily as...

you know out and out wrong but certainly i've sometimes people have been offended by my teaching i don't think charlie kirk was offended can you guys see me okay let me know in the chat because we're trying out a lot of new tech and we're in a new environment so let me know um that you can hear me for example you say hub or temple for good or cowboy hot shot just let me know that you can i know

I know that the one on the right is Kelly Means and the one on the left is Charlie Coates. I don't know, RFK. I just thought it would be funny to keep saying about Kelly Means. I know him. Oh, I don't like that image. It's antithetical and inconsistent with democracy. And we had Hillary Clinton yesterday making this extraordinary statement that...

endorsing the censorship of speech in our country. We have Kamala Harris saying that free speech is a privilege, it's not right. And Tim Walz saying the same thing. And I think that that is disqualifying for anybody who wants to be president of the United States.

whoa there you go there's some views on uh on uh censorship there from bobby kennedy it's very difficult not to agree with listen if you're watching us on youtube we'll be off in a couple of minutes we've got some great stories to cover of course we're discussing the recent exploding walkie talkies we're going to talk a bit about project 2025 we're going to talk about

a lot about takes on the assassination and a little bit on new alliances around wars. We've got quite a lot to discuss. Lauren, can I just ask you, was Luke on the line when we did the...

I'll give you a bit of advice. Where are you going? Get back to your seat! No!

that energy really affected me as a stand-up comedian once sometimes we used to do stand-up in small venues if someone went to the toilet i'd get the whole audience to leave and go in like hide we're hiding where the whole audience is hiding because too many people went to the toilet and to punish them we're hiding from them now you're back you bastard here they are the traitors give them a round of applause

Become an awakened wonder. Hey, listen, we've got a message from one of our partners. They support us and enable us to bring you this content. Here is the message now.

Savvy homeowners like us can make it really difficult for these scoundrels by teaming up with Home Title Lock. Their triple lock protection monitors your property, sends you alerts,

alistair yes you know how to remedy it has it landed nice one mate well done excuse us guys we're just practicing a few new things that's why we're in a new like a new location do you remember the uh logs there beautiful them were the days hey what

What's important, I think, is to have some actual principles. Principles like, I don't believe in war, I don't believe in violence. Then, if you abur, if you stray, if you walk away, if you sin, you will know the position you're in. What we live in is a time without...

any actual principles there is only utility I feel this has grown out of materialism and individualism let me show you what I mean by that by using this post of Edward Snowden's looking at the reaction to Israel's in Obama style booby-trapped campaign from people who actually live in the region it's created a hundred times more enemies than Hezbollah could ever hope to recruit even from a military perspective it's terribly short-sighted so incense Edward Snowden back to the screen Edward Snowden is making the point that

that even from a practical perspective, it's not a sensible strategy. It's kind of the same as what I was saying about Tim Walton, Kamala Harris and the censorship.

Is it John Rawls? He was a sort of, he's admittedly a kind of liberal social democrat who used the metaphor of the pizza. If you were cutting the pizza but you didn't get to choose first, how would you cut that pizza up? You'd probably cut it up relatively equal. It's a simple sort of metaphor for it. But what

What it, I suppose, enables us to understand is we've let go some time ago of clear and reliable principles. Is it because of the death of religion? Is it because of the fall of the Berlin Wall? Is it because rampant globalism and bureaucracy has overtaken us? Is it because it seems our cherished principles that were once regarded as universal have been slowly eroded as we've become little more than commodities or the consumers of commodities? Let's have a look

how a couple of news outlets covered the recent walkie-talkie pager story and let's have a look at the principles that it suggests to us before looking at how Lindsey Graham and Ryan Ruth have some surprising things in common but if you

But if you're watching us on YouTube, you're going to have to click the link in the description, start the countdown, because this content is available for those that support our free speech on Rumble. And if you want to support us further, become an Awakened Wonder, where we do all sorts of additional content, including Bible readings and meditation and stand-up breakdowns.

every single day. YouTube de-amplifies our content. You can see if you look at the videos that YouTube will promote the content of, for example, BBC, MSNBC, CNN, rather than our content. Rumble will support us, so you support us too by clicking the link in the description and joining us.

Let's have a look at how this news story is being covered. For example, first of all, on a couple of news outlets globally. Check it out. Lebanon is on edge tonight after another tech attack on Hezbollah. This time, walkie-talkies have exploded, killing at least 20 people and injuring hundreds more. It happened just as crowds gathered to mourn those killed yesterday by deadly pager blasts.

There are also reports solar energy systems detonated in several homes. Israel's responded by declaring a new phase of the war has begun. The logic of making all these devices explode is to do it...

as a preemptive strike before a major military operation. Hezbollah started using pagers like this because it was worried about Israeli electronic surveillance. It thought that this old-fashioned technology was potentially more secure than smartphones, but that turns out to have been

deadly mistake as those pagers started detonating yesterday in a massive chain of explosions. Hezbollah is saying this is a covert operation carried out by Israel targeting its members. Now, the former director of the CIA tells us what appears most likely is that Israel somehow got into the supply chain of these pagers and planted small explosives in them before they were delivered to Hezbollah.

The question is whether an attack on this scale will cause Hezbollah to back down or whether it will provoke them into all-out war. I suppose it's likely, back to screen, Alistair, thank you mate, I suppose it's likely that what it will elicit is a response of some description and will likely lead to an escalation

I'm trying my best, as just a person who's I suppose not directly affected and only an observer and a pundit, to remain able to observe what principles are at play here. Here's a way that might help you to understand it.

During, or this is the way I understand it, you might understand it in a thousand different ways, I suppose, but different from one another. Do you remember when the Bush administration were vilified because of their attacks on Iraq when apparently there were never discovered weapons of mass destruction that had to be sought out and the Bush administration were condemned, Bush himself was ridiculed, the names like Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheney were banned.

by words for globalism imperialism war and destruction then we have we find ourselves in 2024 and an endorsement from bush staffers kamal harris has received endorsements from over 200 bush staffers

The Cheneys, every single member of the family, seem to be endorsing Kamala. And that's of course presented to us as if it's some kind of brilliant and unifying act. But the unification has already occurred. You have a uniparty. In the same way, did you notice in those newscasts, there was a kind of tacit celebration of ingenuity. They're using pages and stuff because they think it's going to be safer. But Mossad were ahead of them.

I wonder if it's possible to even have a conversation, let alone create content, where you can simultaneously in your mind hold Israeli folk for whom you care and love, people in Gaza for whom you care and love, and walk in a principled fashion through it. Is it possible? Or do you think, let me know in the comments on Rumble or You Awaken Wonders,

Whether or not you just have to sort of go, no, I'm going to hate someone. I'm going to hate someone. And if you think that's what we're really doing now is choosing who to hate, then you're going to love Lindsey Graham and Ryan Ruth because Lindsey Graham,

He's, you know, a neocon, a militarist, a military industrial complex dude. And Ran Roof is almost someone I feel like I might have identified with once. He seems like a kind of idealistic, if misinformed, righteous guy who believes in something. And yet both of them are ultimately saying the same thing, at least according to this fascinating piece of analysis by Tucker Carlson.

And I'm watching this, they're literally telling me that this guy whom they've arrested is a Trump supporter. Huh? So you flip channels and then you learn that, ah, I flipped over to a channel I used to work on.

And there's Lindsey Graham. And I know, I know, I know. He's a Republican senator from one of the most conservative states. How does that happen, by the way? If democracy is real, how is Lindsey Graham a senator? But whatever. So I'm watching Lindsey Graham and Lindsey Graham's looking right into the camera and he's like, you know who did this? Iran.

Iran? So I looked into this, yeah, well that's for sure. Well it turns out someone just yelled warmonger. Well the guy who shot Trump was also a warmonger. And in fact, the closer you look at it, the more you realize his politics are exactly the same as Lindsey Graham's.

He's a neocon. He literally volunteered in Ukraine. And Lindsey Graham's like, no, Iran did it. It's like, no, you have no opinions that are different from this guy's. And you're lying to me. And the audience I used to speak to five nights a week, you were lying to them. I'm shouting this in my hotel room. Nobody heard me. My wife was brushing her teeth. She's like, what is that? They're lying.

It drove me completely insane! And there's no mention of the fact that this guy, who by the way has been interviewed by every media outlet in Washington, this guy was like a very famous guy. You may not even know this. There's only really one place to learn any facts at all and that's Elon Musk's social media app. It's crazy!

I don't have a TV at home, so I'm spared most of this. I have no idea what's going on. By the way, I strongly recommend ignorance

If you're looking to stay happy in a moment like this, just know less. Unfortunately, my job requires me to know more, but if you think about it, did God punish Adam and Eve for ignorance? I don't think he did. He punished them for knowledge, so maybe I shouldn't watch cable news. This was my, I don't want to know what they're saying, but this week I've had to pay close attention.

And every single thing is a lie either directly or it's a lie much more prevalent and much more sinister. It's a lie by omission. They're just not telling you the facts.

And without belaboring the point, I'm using this as just one example among a countless number of examples where reality is completely distorted and the average person has not only no idea but no way of knowing what the truth is. So the guy who is now in custody for attempted murder against the Republican nominee, the former US President Donald Trump, that guy has been interviewed countless times by every big media outlet in the United States.

He's got a criminal record the length of your arm, 20 charges including possession of weapons of mass destruction. The New York Times didn't bother learning any of that before they held him up as a freedom fighter in Ukraine where he was living.

And then the piece describes the contact he's had with members of Congress and their staffs and other U.S. government agencies. You're like, wait a second, that's the same guy who brought a rifle with a scope to a golf course in South Florida to murder Donald Trump? And he's had all these contacts with U.S. government agencies? He's like, I don't know what that's about, but I think it's time to find out. No? Yes! Yes!

But no one's gonna find out. It's just gonna be memory holding. In a week it will never have happened. And you'll be the crazy person for remembering. People are like, what? Didn't some Trump supporter bring a rifle because you're against gun control or something? No, no, no, no, no. That's not what happened. A guy who was a darling of the New York Times, who has the exact same worldview as Lindsey Graham, decided to try and murder Donald Trump. And it'll be completely gone. It will have disappeared.

It's interesting, isn't it? It's an interesting perspective. Horseshoe politics is almost a cliched phrase these days. And maybe in two peculiar and anomalous examples like dear Lindsey Graham, God love him, God bless him, that unusual, paucine and sweltering individual, that odd little Jim Henson creation, that peculiar occupant of the labyrinth, so odd and...

idiosyncratic, I half expect him to start worshipping David Bowie's wizard king, Pixie King at any moment and him and one of the Trump assassins having a sort of a shared purview shows us how messy things have become. So I suppose principles are costly aren't they if you have principles like I am an establishment, I recognise that I have a personal responsibility to participate in change in the world

There are points where you will make mistakes. Certainly I make lots of mistakes, but at least you'll know when you're doing them rather than continually metastasizing into some creature of convenience. Luke, have a look at these memes that are up in the Awakened Wonder chat. For example, that montage one, not saying for sure that I'd like to repost it on X, but it's exactly the sort of thing I was talking about earlier. So keep your eyes, Luke. In fact, say hello in the Awakened Wonder chat. That's Luke who does our social media for us. He'll be...

looking out for your memes and some of the best ones we'll post elsewhere and we'll certainly credit them. Like, you know, look at that one. I've seen that before, that clamp it's one though, guys. Also, could you draw the curtains a little bit because I can see a lot of activity, not right now, but when it's happening I can see it and it distracts me. So if you pull both of those right shut. Thanks very much.

Anyway, let me know what you think about that in the comments and the chat guys and remember to like and subscribe wherever you're watching this. Here's a comment from Jamcham83: "As much as I agree" - this is on Rumble - "As much as I agree with Tucker and Russell's views, I can't help but take them with a grain of salt. I can't afford anything they try promoting. I'm not sure if they even realize the struggles of the common." I try to realize the struggles of the common. I try not to forget.

where i come from mate and uh like in fact some of the things we promote seem directly targeted at people that require sort of financial support for example medical support but i i recognize that it's weird once you've exited the kind of conditions that most americans and british people live in maybe everything you say comes across as hollow i hope not i do try and stay connected but i certainly appreciate your feedback all of you guys okay so uh

We're talking a bit about those assassination attempts. Kamala Harris says that Donald Trump and the sort of several assassination attempts of recent weeks might give him a better understanding of the struggles of the LGBTQ plus community who feel threatened by Project 2025. Let's see if this makes sense or if it's just sort of a just a piece of rhetorical oddness. Do you have full confidence in the Secret Service to protect all of you? I don't.

- Do you feel safe for you and your family? - I do. But, I mean, you can go back to Ohio. Not everybody has Secret Service.

And there are far too many people in our country right now who are not feeling safe. I mean, I look at Project 2025 and I look at, you know, like the don't say gay laws coming out of Florida. Members of the LGBTQ community don't feel safe right now. Immigrants or people with an immigrant background don't feel safe right now. Women don't feel safe right now. And so,

Yes, I feel safe. I have Secret Service protection, but that doesn't change my perspective on the importance of fighting for the safety of everybody in our country. Yeah, we've got to fight for the old safety! It's weird, isn't it? One of the reasons I don't feel safe is because I know that we are heavily surveilled and that Kamala Harris is a representative of those kind of powers.

I know that we're heavily censored, and Kamala Harris is a representative of those kind of powers. I know that we are being guided by people that are not qualified

towards increasing conflict with nuclear superpowers like Russia and China and Iran. And Kamala Harris is a representative of those powers. It's such a pity, isn't it? It's such a shame that we have generated systems that are occupied by such folk.

Well, thankfully we have the almighty power of prayer to somewhat protect us. And I suppose we have the ability to communicate directly in the manner that we are now. Some nice memes in there like that Ricky Gervais meme. Very good, excellent stuff there. It's some nice stuff. Hey, yeah, illegal immigrants, you're saying that's part of the problem. Yeah, maybe people don't feel safe there.

What do you think it points to, guys? Decentralization? What does it point to? Ending all conflict? Ending all colonial and imperialist projects to check the migrant crisis, to not destabilize other places, then secure your own borders, then hold a referenda on migration, then decentralize community control to the maximal amount so that people can run their own communities? Is that what we should do? Should we...

defund the legacy media and stop them receiving the ongoing funds of groups like Pfizer? What do you think? What do you think? Should we do any of that? Did any of that make sense?

only half listening to myself as i was saying it one thing i can tell you a degree of certainty is that when it comes to legacy media like cnn they revel in misinformation while claiming to protect you from it here scott jennings acknowledges the fact that the trump bloodbath lyric is uh is

is a deliberately misleading mainstream media meme. Have a look at this. You'll enjoy this thing, guys. I just don't agree. I mean, the underpinning of her campaign, I mean, she repeats it herself. Trump will be a dictator on day one. I mean, this country fights dictators. That's what our history is. We fight dictators. Didn't he say that? He'll be a dictator. Those were his words. There'll be a bloodbath.

He'll be a bloodbath. He wants to terminate the U.S. Constitution. The first thing she said, which was true, and the second thing she said, which she said. It is said by every Democrat working for or around her campaign every day on this network and every other one. The bloodbath thing is stated every single day. But my point is, dictator, bloodbath, eliminate Constitution. Hold on. Let's just clear this up. You're referring to Trump's use of the word bloodbath when he was talking. And what was he talking about? He was...

I'm going to explain it to people because I think there's confusion about this. Use of the word bloodbath when he was talking about vehicle manufacturing jobs in the United States. Vice President Harris improperly and unfairly mischaracterized that as him saying there would be a bloodbath if he were elected. However, she did not say that if Trump were elected, there would be a bloodbath. She did not say that. That's actually quite enjoyable, isn't it? To see someone have to backtrack and acknowledge that

Because I watched that rally. I watched it. At the time when that news story came out, he said, "There'll be a bloodbath." He was talking about tariffs and manufacturing China, and whether or not China would do manufacturing deals with Mexico and stuff. It's just rhetoric. On one hand, there are people being imprisoned for stuff they're posting online. And on the other hand, there are people being sort of condemned as if their rhetoric was literal.

very interesting rock wants the word of mouth russell brown to find the seven heads we have to deal with lucifer snake his heads of evil the blanket over the world rock monster of mouth i hope i mean look i do now believe that there is a occultist component if not a cultist maybe that sounds too sort of grand

There is a serious, serious darkness at play. Not just the wonkish and bureaucratic stuff. Beneath the kind of language there is a dark power. I'm still trying to understand it. It's early days for me. Bear with me. Bear with me. So, let's have a look at elsewhere. Kamala Harris is having to, or at least CNN are acknowledging that when it comes to policies,

Kamala Harris is a little left wanting. Let's have a look at that. When you listen to Kamala Harris on what she will do, you can almost start a drinking game every time she says small businesses. Let me give you an example.

Part of my plan under my economic opportunity plan going forward is that right now, startup entrepreneurs, small businesses only get a tax deduction of $5,000. Nobody can start a small business with $5,000. So I'm expanding that to $50,000. Understanding, again, that when people have the opportunity to have the resources to get started, they're going to put the good ideas, they're going to put the hard work into it.

Describe the politics of that. Well, she says that. She also talks about being a middle class kid. That's also the front of her answers. If you look at the interviews they've been doing with local media, and they've opened up a bit more since the debate, the first question is often, what are you going to do to lower prices? Which is a very hard question for an incumbent party to answer. And it has implications that are very Trumpian. It is Trump says he's going to do mass deportation. That'll decrease demand. Trump says he'll explore more energy. That'll decrease energy costs. Democrats can point to the fact that inflation is actually, it was bad two years ago. It's not now.

what people want to hear is how do you make the prices go down so everything she says is something realistic that could survive a fact check that answers a very hard question there is not a plan to say to say that we're going to lower the cost of your grocery bill to what it was in the 2019 there was a pandemic there was a money money supply inflation you can't hit the button

that makes that go away. But Trump has an answer that gets him through these questions. And Harris, I think with a different set of incentives and a different relationship to something she can back up in a policy paper, she doesn't have an answer. So she goes to a larger, well imagine a future where there are more businesses and this starts to ameliorate.

Let's have a policy freak-off because here is Kamala Harris saying in response to... I don't know what the question was. I grew up a middle-class kid. In our country it's Keir Starmer's dad was a toolmaker. There's nothing... when he was campaigning he didn't need his toolmaker dad so much now that he's got his hands on the levers of power. What he needs now is the ability to imprison people for stuff they say on the internet and he has that ability and

By God, is he using it? The idea that politicians deploy a rhetoric that makes them sound normal, affable, relatable, become a joke and a bit of a cliche. We know the baby kissing was started by Adolf Hitler. You know that there are numerous techniques, you know, whether it is Joe Biden banging on about Stanton and corn pop or

the extraordinary backstory of Barack Obama, people have to elevate their humanity in order to, I suppose, somehow refresh us, remind us, or even distract us from the fact that they don't seem like ordinary people. They don't appear to behave or legislate like normal people. Like, just take an example from earlier on, like when Kamala Harris was talking about, you know, people not feeling safe.

in that moment referring to the cultural conditions that are convenient for her to raise that grow out of what she believes to be the bigotry of the right that leads to prejudicial conditions from people with for people with minority identity preferences she doesn't say you might not feel safe though because

we're escalating tensions with nuclear superpowers on almost every front. And it just seems like a weird way to think and a weird way to communicate. In a minute we'll have a look at Kamala Harris, just another plucky middle-class kid who made her way to the top. Yeah, I wonder about that spirit of the age, good comment. But before we get into that, here's a message from our partners over at... excuse me, American Financing. No, go mining.

Ah, you'll like this. This is GoMining. I learned about this when I was at the Bitcoin conference earlier in the year. Now, Bitcoin's a pretty difficult thing to understand. GoMining offers a new way of earning Bitcoin by buying non-fungible tokens. It's going to be really confusing, those non-fungible tokens. I think you've got to really be careful with that stuff. But this...

represents a share in a real mining equipment. So it's actually legit gear rather than some sort of abstract concept. It helps to avoid the difficulties associated with purchasing and maintaining mining equipment. The cheapest NFT is only about $25 and you can upgrade to get more daily rewards. You start receiving rewards 24 hours after purchasing. Go mining tokens and NFTs are backed by real data centers and mining equipment. I think that's the area in particular we have to really pay attention.

So let's have a look. It says here, there's a note here that seems like it would be relevant to you in there Alistair, because it says demonstrate Russell's dashboard on GoMining website, which is certainly not something I've been instructed on how to achieve. Does that make sense to you Alistair in there? Yes? You're doing that now I guess. NFT itself and mining power, is that a yes on that? Yes.

Mmm, that was a little dubious. NFT itself and mining power belongs to you for good. And you can even sell it on if you want to. GoMining has nine data centers with significant computational power offering the lowest electricity rates. Check GoMining using the link in the description.

Now, I met with these guys out there and I remember trying to pull my head around some of the concepts of

Bitcoin and back screen please guys Bitcoin and data mining and I'm got to tell you I'm like a generation X person I was baffled by what I recognized is that go mining are in an advanced position within within that industry and if I was going to invest in Bitcoin I would do it via the brokerage of that organization take advantage of that five percent if you can guys all right let's have a look of yeah take advantage of our little discount that we can get you there

i just want to have a look i just want to show you this uh moment that allows us to further understand the rather trivial uh responses to inquiries about policy have a look it's from kamala harris of course when we talk about bringing down prices and making life more affordable for people what are one or two specific things you have in mind for that

Well, I'll start with this. I grew up a middle class kid. My mother raised my sister and me. She worked very hard. Do you know why they do that? Because they say that voters are stupid and can only understand small little sound bites. That's what they say. That's what they say. They won't understand it. But one of the incredible advantages of the online space is, and one of the paradoxes, I suppose, is whilst we're all

hypnotized and spellbound by tick tock and easily dragged off into avenues of idiocy on instagram or scrolling on x of much too long and looking at stuff that's just clearly not good for you we also do have the ability to consume incredible long form content where there are excellent arguments available to people you just would never hear elsewhere even academics that are non-sanctioned someone like sort of graham hancock who was like you know archaeologists just

detest and despise or randall carlson who has like a amazing theories or figures like meersheimer and sacks when it comes to geopolitics who people might condemn but they're these are like legit academics who can provide a counter narrative to what you'll hear elsewhere so

Now, when you hear Kamala Harris say, I grew up middle class kid for the umpteenth time, doesn't it feel sort of facile and empty? And sort of, in a way, a politics that belongs to a different time. A rhetoric that is defunct and dying. Well, that's just what I think. I want you to let me know what you think in...

the comments and the chat. An interesting take on Kamala Harris there in a number of areas. One, lack of policies when it comes to grocery prices. Two, specific prices, you know, which is kind of...

banging on about being a middle-class kid and finally her response to the inquiry about project 25 and lb you know that that's lgbtq stuff and talking about safety all of those things together give you a very interesting insight into the mind of kamala harris i would say uh okay now we over here at rumble know that

even to exist in this space comes with challenges. It comes with challenges when it comes to censorship, it comes with challenges when it comes to funding, it comes with challenges when it comes to being banned in whole nations, Brazil, France and Russia. Now,

The importance of platforms like this one is that they can offer alternative perspectives. Here's Peter Thiel talking about the 2024 election and the potential that in the event that it's a close election in your country, and they tend to be down there, they generally are.

It's likely that there's a possibility for stealing. I'm not seeing this yet, but I'm interested in Peter Thiel. I know lots of you are. I've heard people say interesting stuff about him. But in this instance, he's talking about the risks of a close election and the potential for it to be stolen. Let's have a look at that now.

If it is going to be close, by the way, if it's like going to be a razor-thin close election, then I'm pretty sure Kamala will win because they will cheat, they will fortify it, they will steal the ballots. And so, you know, if we can— In the event that it's close, I don't want to be involved. In the event that it's not close, I don't need to be involved.

And so that's sort of a straightforward analysis right there. By jumping off point, how much cheating on a percentage basis do you think happens every year? How much, and do you think Trump actually won the last time? You need to be careful with the verbs. So, you know, cheating, stealing, that implies something happened in the dark of night. I think the verb you're allowed to use is fortify. Okay.

Okay, yeah, we don't want to get canceled on YouTube. Ballot harvesting. I mean, it was, you know, it's all sort of, there were all these rule changes that were sort of done in plain daylight. And, uh,

But yeah, I think our elections are not perfectly clean. Otherwise, we could examine it. We could have vigorous debate about it. Well, what would you change then? What should change? Because we all want everybody's votes to count. We want it to be clean. I'm talking about the audience here. At a minimum, you'd try to run elections the same way you do it in every other Western democracy. You have one-day voting. You have practically no absentee ballots. You have... And...

And it's one day where everything happens. It's not this two-month elongated process. That's the way you do it in every other country. You have some somewhat stronger voter ID and make sure...

The people who are voting have a right to vote. Make it a national holiday. That's basically what you do in every other Western democracy. And it used to be much more like that in the US. I mean, it's meaningfully decayed over the last 20, 30 years. 20, 30 years ago, 30, 40 years ago, you got the results on the day of the vote. And that sort of stopped happening.

Wow, so there you go. I suppose that was a very popular perspective on simplifying the process of elections. Let me know what you think about that in the comments and the chat. Now, I know many people would say that Chris Cuomo burned his right to be listened to when he talked about ivermectin on CNN, but I'm a person that believes in redemption, in second chances, in progress, in change, in new alliances, in looking for friendship rather than enmity. And here is Chris Cuomo offering an astonishing statement.

critique on the left's attacks on Donald Trump. Surely we can see now that snaking through power are the allied and alloyed interests of the military-industrial complex. One minute they seem to have as their avatars Cheney and Bush, the next minute Kamala

and Biden. Shouldn't we welcome people from the mainstream disavowing and decrying the war machine or being critical of legacy media and their attempts to continually demonize Donald Trump?

Whether or not any individual or any populist nationalist movement is the solution to the complex problems the world faces right now is yet to be determined. But certainly we should welcome new voices in this space. Why don't you let me know in the comments and chat what you think about Chris Cuomo talking about the left's attacks on Donald Trump. And you can think what you want about Trump. He does not have many more full-throated critics of what he says and does than me. Okay?

And yet I called him today because I am ashamed of how we are responding and not responding to the threats on him. And I feel for his family. And I know you can roll your eyes and say, oh yeah, he asked for it. Listen, that's your choice. And I think it's a wrong choice. Okay. We got to get out of the judgment business unless it's judging ourselves. And you got to start rewarding things that are better. And I got to tell you, I don't know how he stays in the race.

I don't know how he got up after being shot in the head and you people who try to mitigate that, you need to check yourself. He gets up, pumping his fist, stays in the race, barely even talks about it. Now look, I do believe he has wasted opportunities and he has another one now. Who better than Trump to say, we can do better, I can do better. I know he keeps doubling down on his angry rhetoric.

How can he not? It keeps working for him. I don't know that it gets him elected. My theory is that he needs to expand. He had a chance to do it after he was... There you go, guys. Let me know what you think. You've certainly been pretty vociferous in the old comments there. Now, Brett Weinstein and Rogan believes that there is a cheap margin when it comes to elections. Surely such a thing can be true.

surely elections are fair and well regulated surely they are free and fair and reliable surely we have nothing to fear in 2024 surely there will be a peaceful passage of power surely what awaits us on the other side of november 5th is a utopia a new freedom peace in every direction before brett weinstein and joe rogan discuss that

Here's a message from one of our partners. Let me read that to you now. It comes from American Financing. "Wages are flat, expenses are up. It's hard to manage all the bills without grabbing for credit cards. If you're a homeowner and frustrated with that cycle, make a 10-minute no-obligation call to American Financing. Interest rates are dropping. If you're constantly carrying a credit card balance each and every month with a rate in the 20s, American Financing can show you how to use the equity in your home to get you out of debt."

Be careful, of course. Their salary-based mortgage consultants are saving their customers an average of $800 a month. That sounds like a good offering. If you get started today, you may not have to make next month's mortgage payment without their assistance. If you're American, you can call American Financing today on 866-574-2500. That's 866-574-2500. It's only available to Americans out there. Or visit AmericanFinancing.net forward slash.

slash Russell. Okay, let's have a look at Brett Weinstein and Rogan talking about the potential cheat margin in an election. To me, it was the Kennedy assassination. One good book on the Kennedy assassination, I was like, God damn it, they killed the fucking president. It freaked me out forever.

That was like I literally had a giant shift in how I viewed the world after reading that book. Because before that, I was never a questioner of whatever was in the news or whatever the narrative was that we were being told about anything. Well, but I mean, I have exactly the same reaction to that story. And I've been down that rabbit hole. And I think you're just ultimately left to the question. Something happened in 1963.

That's before either of us were born, right? Right. That thing was either an anomaly that robbed the nation of a president and the nation continued to be a democratic republic in the aftermath of it, or that was interference with democracy. And we don't know how to look at all of the seemingly democratic things that have happened since. How much of what has happened since are the people who took control with that democracy

assassination how much is them continuing to maintain control with a certain amount of democracy and how much was that a an aberration that then returned us to our normal course and it's a good point a certain amount of democracy a certain amount it's clear there's clearly a certain amount yeah well which is one of the reasons why they're so terrified of trump

There's a certain amount of the stealing they can do. Let's imagine if it is dirty and you really can manipulate elections. How much can you manipulate it by? Can you manipulate it by 30%? You know? Because we don't know. And as long as they can have you believing in the polls, this is what's really important, polls.

Kamala Harris is up by 3%. Oh, she's up. She's winning. Like, who the fuck are you talking to? Who are you talking to? Right. And you're not talking to me. What narrative is it in which Kamala has done something that might have caused a surge in her popularity? Like, I didn't see it. Well, some magic. But to your point about how much can they cheat, I call that factor, which none of us can put a number on. Maybe they can. Right. I call it the cheat factor. Right? The cheat margin. And...

One of the things that I'm trying to convince people of is that it's not hopeless because they can cheat, but it means that you have to succeed at a level that exceeds their capacity to erase it. Right. So that's what we're talking about. So we're talking about like maybe they can cheat by 10%. Right. And what we know, and I think actually we owe...

a huge debt of gratitude for proving something that I couldn't have told you if it was true before he won the presidency, which is

Is there still enough democracy left in the system for something to upend the plan? Right. Because he was clearly off narrative. Right. And he did become president. So, you know, he did something for us that I don't know anybody else who could have done it. Yeah. It would take a person with that kind of personality that could withstand that kind of abuse.

Because he didn't freak out at all when they went after him. He was like, eh. Right. Just brushed it off like it was nothing. That's, I suppose, that's what I like about Trump. He disrupted it. That is it, isn't it?

That's the thing that brings the excitement. Even if there are things you disagree with, even if there are things you don't see eye to eye on, even if there are things you think, I'm not sure about that. Is that enough of a change? Is that the right kind of world? Is that the world we want to inherit? What you have to acknowledge is that person hacked it. He disrupted it. They couldn't stop him. Yeah, that's pretty exciting. And that's pretty inspiring. Don't you think that's more likely the reason he's so vehemently demonized rather

than any sort of inherent malevolence within him. I mean, isn't it impossible to imagine that the technological feudalism that lies at the end of the globalist project, total civilian management, where you're on a program for medication, you're on a program for finance,

you're on a program for your every move that you can be social credit scored into a corner at a moment's notice and your automatic driverless car would drop you off at the nearest human depository if you uttered one word out of line with the new world orders ever flowing, ongoing, omniscient edict

Man, surely that is the reason we should be excited about all disruptors. My enemy's enemy is my friend, and there are chances yet for disruption. But that's just what I think. Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat, baby. Listen, you know that if you're going to operate in this world and not go absolutely insane in the membrane, you're going to need a little bit of the Lord's
