00:00:43.000I'm gonna go to the south side of the island.
00:02:12.000In this video, you're going to see the future.
00:02:23.000Hello there you Awakening Wonders, thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
00:02:27.000We've got so much to talk to you about today, whether it's the online safety hearing in the United States that seems extraordinarily obviously being leveraged to generate more opportunities for control.
00:02:39.000In fact, let me know what you think right now on the rumble stream.
00:02:42.000Is this hearing, this inquiry, really about child safety online?
00:02:47.000Or is it about more opportunities to implement control?
00:02:50.000One, if you think it's about child safety.
00:02:53.000Two, if you think it's about the implementation of control.
00:02:58.000We've asked that elsewhere on other platforms and we'll show you those poll results a little later, as well as talking about my experiences on Tucker Carlson recently.
00:03:06.000If you're watching us on YouTube, we'll be there for about 15 minutes.
00:03:10.000Yeah, none of you are buying it anymore.
00:03:12.000If you're watching us on YouTube, you have to remember That the WHO regulate many of the guidelines that are on YouTube or specifically they implement the suggestions and regulations from the WHO when it comes to discussion of medical matters and there's a inquiry underway in Australia right now that is going way off track when it comes to the WHO perspective with lawyers and physicians questioning the validity of measures taken in Australia and you know how draconian those measures were
00:03:41.000People asking questions like is it right for the state to intervene in your relationship with your private physician?
00:03:47.000What happens when doctors start ending their own lives as is happening in Australia?
00:03:51.000We'll be showing you a little of that as well as updating you on the global pharma uprising as The people that toil the land to generate food turn against the system.
00:04:17.000Remember, That whenever you use defamatory language, and I support your free speech, I support your right to say whatever you want, but whenever you use defamatory speech on the basis of someone's identity or religion or race, they love that!
00:04:31.000We've got them turned against one The minute that we begin to say, I don't care about your identity, I care about your ability to oppose these centralised systems of corruption and they are growing in power.
00:04:42.000When the Orwellian language abides, we know we're in trouble.
00:04:46.000When we're told that war is the only way of peace, we're in trouble.
00:04:49.000When we're told that bombing the Yemen is self-defence, when you are America and you're in America, we know that something serious is going on.
00:05:07.000I want to say hello to all my Awaken Wonders over on Locals.
00:05:09.000Those are our supporters who get additional content.
00:05:11.000Every single week we make additional content for them.
00:05:15.000This week's video is fantastic, as well as going into some detail about what's going on in Australia, which you will love because I'm a Moderna are fretting.
00:05:42.000Me and Tucker had a conversation, not the one that's already posted everywhere, a private, discreet conversation If you want access to that, you can have a look at it right now.
00:06:54.000If you're watching us on YouTube, you're going to have to jump over into the Rumble Stream because it's where we speak freely, it's where we are guaranteed safety, it's where we can develop and cultivate this movement, where we can grow together spiritually, where we can grow together in freedom or the alternative is to imbibe the legacy media trusted news initiative approved pap that they want your mind filled with so that you become numbed off so that you are no longer an awakening node in a system of change.
00:07:24.000Let's have a look at this Orwellian language.
00:07:26.000When you're bombing the Yemen now it's self-defense.
00:07:30.000has carried out a self-defense strike targeting and destroying multiple projectiles that the Houthis were preparing to launch at commercial ships just in the last hour.
00:10:00.000Pushing operation warp speed on an experimental pharmaceutical product and giving Dr. Fauci, who now admits social distancing wasn't based on science, a presidential commendation.
00:10:11.000I look forward to debating our records in San Marcos on September the 16th.
00:10:30.000James O'Keefe, I would call him journalist and master of disguise.
00:10:35.000James O'Keefe has gone very, very deep, and you are going to love that.
00:10:39.000You're going to love watching James O'Keefe going deeper, guys.
00:10:42.000So, like, he's gone deep, deep into disguise.
00:10:46.000So, Peter McCulloch, this is pretty interesting because one of the things I wonder, and I want to know what you lot say, because I know that there's a significant number of you love Donald Trump, you see Donald Trump as the answer.
00:10:56.000What do you feel when RFK hits him on the pandemic record?
00:11:01.000How do you think the pandemic was handled by Trump?
00:11:05.000This is interesting because Peter McCulloch, who's been on this show before, many of you will be aware of Peter McCulloch because of his uh views uh you know he's a legit doctor man he came out hard during the pandemic he was one of the first people saying don't uh vaccinate during a pandemic he was saying things like spike proteins won't remain in the site shouldn't be called a vaccine to gene therapy i mean we're still on youtube so we'll be careful but uh these are things he said which are
00:11:29.000Plainly conspiracy theories, the lunatic!
00:11:32.000Anyway, he's come out now saying that demographically, the issue of the pandemic, and in particular vaccines, could affect the outcome of the election.
00:11:41.000Now, I don't know what you guys think about that, but have a look.
00:11:46.000You might find this an interesting insight.
00:11:48.000I'm looking at you, Awakened Wonders, RiversEd, USA Now, Rational Anarchy.
00:11:52.000Whoever is running for president better figure this out pretty quick, because only 60% of people vote That's it.
00:12:34.000Hey, you know, did you see them sort of photographs of Trump with his hand with either a golf injury or red ink on it or what some people suggested?
00:12:55.000A news space that exists primarily to amplify the interests of the powerful.
00:12:59.000Here's Donald Trump addressing... Yeah, no one would vote for him.
00:13:02.000No one would vote for a candidate that was not honest about the pandemic period, that didn't support the legitimate and genuine inquiry, and indeed, beyond inquiry, reckoning that is required in this situation.
00:13:16.000What was the information we were given?
00:13:18.000What were the assurances we were offered around those medications?
00:13:23.000There's a lot of questions and there are questions that we'll be answering in full over on the Rumble stream.
00:13:27.000So remember, if you're watching us on YouTube, join us on Rumble and you, you Awakened Wonders, you glorious members of our community, we love you and we appreciate you.
00:13:36.000Let's have a look at Donald Trump addressing the red hand stuff.
00:13:46.000the photos coming out of Trump Tower? No. Okay. What was wrong with them? The other one.
00:13:50.000You want to tell us what happened with them? Nothing. Maybe it's AI.
00:13:57.000Well, you know, they can do pretty impressive things these days.
00:14:03.000Now, the main thing that we want to talk to you about today is the inquiry into online child safety.
00:14:11.000Did you see yet TikTok CEO Xu Zhiqiu was repeatedly asked if he was a member of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:14:18.000Those of you old enough or Well-informed enough, or well-educated enough, or just maybe you've picked it up.
00:14:24.000When McCarthyism was a pretty big thing in your country in the 1950s, are you a member of the Communist Party, was a pretty well-repeated refrain.
00:14:35.000It was a time where freedom of speech and freedom of ideas was closed down.
00:14:39.000Having a look at this conversation, this inquiry between these various senators, in this case it's Tom Cotton and the head of TikTok, is redolent of those times.
00:14:52.000Our friend over here on Rumble, the Pulitzer Prize-winning conspiracy theorist Glenn Greenwood posted this.
00:14:59.000Tom Cotton is a complete imbecile, as this clip vividly demonstrates, and both parties fear-mongering Over TikTok is grounded in diminuendo.
00:15:09.000There's far more evidence that they're censoring for the US government than China.
00:15:12.000This is all about government control over social media.
00:15:16.000We've already asked you what do you think these hearings are about?
00:15:20.000Do you think it's about protecting children or do you think it is about control?
00:15:26.000These are one of the kinds of questions that have to be asked regularly when you're involved in a discourse with a government.
00:15:32.000What is the relationship between the state and the population?
00:15:41.000Remember at the advent of the pandemic period where it was indeed the sanctity and sacredness of human life that encouraged many of us to be compliant.
00:15:56.000Therefore, if it's suggested that we should remain within our homes, even if that's just going to be beneficial to the most vulnerable members of our society, then we should do it.
00:16:04.000If we should take this medication because it will stop the spread, because it will prevent more vulnerable people, people with comorbidities, who seem to be the people that were dying, then we will take it.
00:16:15.000Over time, it seemed that we were, to a degree, misinformed.
00:16:20.000Over time, it became clear That our previous assumptions about the nature of our relationship with the government had to be looked at, highlighted, remembered.
00:16:59.000Let's have a look at the CEO of TikTok.
00:17:03.000He handles this real well and he seems to be, I would say, operating on a higher intellectual plane than dear Tom Cotton, although I don't know either of them.
00:17:11.000You let me know who you find yourself affiliated with, even though ultimately we're talking about someone that runs a massive platform and Someone that's a senator.
00:17:25.000It was the Biden administration that reversed those sanctions, just like, by the way, they reversed the terrorist designation on the Houthis in Yemen.
00:17:33.000But it was sanctioned as a Chinese communist military company.
00:17:38.000So you said today, as you often say, that you live in Singapore.
00:17:42.000He's really obsessed with this Singapore thing.
00:17:44.000Now of course a Chinese company that comes out of the Chinese state likely is affiliated with and to a degree controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:17:54.000I imagine that's kind of how it works out there.
00:19:19.000We've all got the image of the dude with the carrier bags confronting a tank as a painful and beautiful reminder that even a single individual can stand up To the might of tyranny.
00:19:30.000And perhaps we need greater reminders that we as individuals matter.
00:19:34.000That your individual sovereignty, your individual connection to God, or what you use as a value system if you don't believe in God, is your sanctuary, and is sanctified, and is vital, and is important.
00:19:47.000What is taking place in this inquiry is anti-democratic, is tyrannical.
00:19:53.000It's not about how do we protect your children.
00:19:55.000If it was, why the hell are we talking about Tiananmen Square?
00:19:59.000Why are we talking about the Chinese Communist Party?
00:20:01.000Is he suggesting that the TikTok is to a degree an asset of the Chinese Communist Party?
00:20:04.000I imagine if you live in China, what you see on TikTok is not at odds.
00:20:09.000With the preferences of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:20:15.000Most of us, let us know where you live.
00:20:16.000As a matter of fact, I'm interested in all of you.
00:20:19.000What I'm saying is, is this dude here, dear old Tom Cotton, is interested in a certain control over a platform that at the moment can be used in some territories to freely exchange data.
00:20:30.000And they want that control over TikTok.
00:20:40.000There was an indiscriminate slaughter of hundreds or thousands of Chinese citizens.
00:20:45.000Do you agree with the Trump administration and the Biden administration that the Chinese government is committing genocide against the Uyghur people?
00:21:20.000That's why trulyoffice.com offers something different and now with 30% off for our viewers and listeners, you should take advantage of this operation and opportunity.
00:21:28.000Imagine working with a suite that ensures your privacy without any ads.
00:22:47.000So, like, if what the government is interested in is protecting children, 3.6 million cases of child abuse reported in the US, approximately 2.5 million children are homeless, more than 30 million people faced hunger in 2022, and how much of that do you imagine might be as a result of relationships between big food and the state, and the decay of infrastructure, the widespread Decay of infrastructure because of the amount of expenditure on foreign wars and the advocacy for endless perpetuation of Potentially needless conflict.
00:23:28.000So if you just just press play and you'll do that.
00:23:30.000I think they then had been that what happens of Chinese citizens Do you agree?
00:23:38.000It's a very simple question that unites both parties in our country and governments around the world.
00:23:44.000Is the Chinese government committing genocide against the Uyghur people?
00:23:49.000This is when they go full on in pretending to care about the Uyghurs.
00:23:55.000Exploitation, murder, incarceration and potential genocide against the Uyghur people in China is disgusting and appalling.
00:24:03.000The only thing I can think of that's more disgusting and appalling than that is exploiting it to legitimize potential measures of control and furthering the advance of the censorship industrial complex.
00:24:16.000Like, if they care about the Uyghurs, don't have the leader of China come over to San Francisco for a conference.
00:24:23.000If you care so much about the Uyghurs, Fully investigate whether or not Apple are employing Uyghur workers, potentially even incarcerated Uyghur workers in the manufacture of Apple.
00:24:33.000How about some embargoes, some trade embargoes, so that Apple can't practice or sell phones in China?
00:24:39.000It's extraordinary moral morass that we're being invited to enter.
00:24:43.000You know, you can come and talk about this topic on any topic that matters to you.
00:24:47.000You are a worldly, cosmopolitan, well-educated man who's expressed many opinions on many topics.
00:24:52.000Is the Chinese government committing genocide against the Uyghur people?
00:24:56.000Actually, Senator, I talk amazingly about my company, and I'm here to talk about what TikTok does.
00:25:00.000Yes or no, you're here to give testimony that's truthful and honest and complete.
00:25:05.000Let me ask you this, Joe Biden last year said that Xi Jinping was a dictator.
00:25:09.000Do you agree with Joe Biden that Xi Jinping is a dictator?
00:25:11.000Senator, I'm not going to comment on any world leaders.
00:25:14.000I feel about that inquiry... Can you leave it up for us?
00:25:26.000I'm checked out of the inquiry because I don't trust it.
00:25:30.000Did you see the bit where Mark Zuckerberg had to stand up and apologize to families who've been impacted by child exploitation on meta platforms?
00:25:38.000There's no doubt that social media sites can be pretty unpleasant places.
00:25:42.000There's no doubt that all of us Place and prize our children's welfare above all else.
00:25:49.000There's also very little doubt that this is a staged media event.
00:25:53.000I say this with all respect to people who have had children that have self-harmed or ended their own life or been impacted by bullying as a result of activity on social media.
00:26:01.000So this is obviously a very important issue.
00:26:03.000What I'm suggesting is not that that isn't important, but this is an exploitative campaign that will be used to leverage further censorship measures in a terrain that increasingly the government are finding difficult to control.
00:26:13.000As dissenting voices grow, as disobedience grows, as more and more of us become yet more mistrustful of systems of dominion that we've now known for some time we can't rely on.
00:26:23.000Let's have a look at Zuckerberg there having to sort of apologize like he's actually at school.
00:27:24.000I'm pressing button 11 to have a look at the Jimmy Dore post.
00:27:28.000On March 15th, Mark Zuckerberg privately contacted Fauci saying, I also wanted to share a few ideas of ways we could help you get your message out.
00:27:35.000Zuckerberg then censored scientists, professors, doctors, nurses, and citizens from criticizing Fauci's recommendations.
00:27:41.000So there was a period When social media was being pretty well aligned with the agenda of the government.
00:27:55.000Facebook classified mRNA vaccine injuries as mal-information, meaning information that's likely true but should still be censored to prevent doubts about the experimental mRNA vaccines.
00:28:05.000Numerous Facebook mRNA vaccine injury support groups with hundreds of thousands of members were banned.
00:28:30.000Zuckerberg stood and turned to address the hearing room filled with the families.
00:28:34.000Many held signs with photos of loved ones who they say have suffered because of social media.
00:28:40.000And this is why we invested so much and are going to continue doing extremely big efforts to make sure that no one has to go through the types of things that your families have had to suffer.
00:29:17.000Those are the two things we're all united on.
00:29:19.000We really care about Uyghurs and we really care about America's children and there's certainly not an agenda to censor social media spaces to stop popular dissent spreading.
00:29:28.000The Red says, these are some of your comments, Tom Cotton clearly has some in his ears.
00:29:33.000Does he know anything about Singapore?
00:29:34.000Says River Deep, Mount Ahai, Rattlesnake Haven.
00:29:51.000Will you set up a victim's compensation fund with your money?
00:29:55.000The money you made on... All this phony, performative, theatrical nonsense, the pretense of adversity between the government and social media when plainly they are willing to work in alignment with one another to primarily ensure that ordinary people, and we're all ordinary, We'll have a look at that story in some more detail later, as well as the numerous independent media reporters that are starting to stand up when it comes to the pandemic period.
00:30:30.000Let me know if you remember Last time you heard the name John Podesta.
00:30:35.000Now obviously I went on Tucker Carlson a couple of days ago to talk about recent events and the way that it unfolded.
00:30:44.000Here is a part of that conversation as well as a more detailed account on some of the agencies and organizations that participated in some pretty extraordinary events over the last couple of years.
00:31:22.000Let's have a look at it together and allow me to give you some additional information and show you how the timeline unfolded in a little more detail.
00:31:29.000Back in September, media outlets around the world, almost all of them here in the West and the English-speaking world, ran headlines that shocked a lot of readers and viewers.
00:31:38.000Russell Brand, the movie star, the comedian, now the podcaster, was a sex criminal.
00:31:47.000A lot of people pointed out at the time, you're not in any mainstream movies, you're not on the TV, you're not in the media, you're a marginal figure.
00:31:54.000How extraordinary this amount of time and attention is being spent.
00:32:03.000And I still feel, as I said on Tucker, it seems sort of grandiose to go Oh, yeah, the system's out to get me because it sort of seems somehow preposterous.
00:32:42.000This is a very bad man, and he needs to be taken out of public view for the sake of the rest of us.
00:32:48.000What was interesting about this is that, in fact, it was the final scene in a long movie that had been playing out for the preceding couple of years outside of public view.
00:33:01.000This was an attempt to make Russell Brand shut up.
00:33:04.000Russell Brand has views that diverge from those of most Western governments on big issues, not small things, big issues, questions of economic policy and war and peace.
00:33:13.000And they decided we have to make this man be quiet.
00:33:17.000Well, because in contrast to a lot of us who give our opinions for a living, Russell Brand had the capacity to win people over from the other side.
00:33:25.000He hadn't spent a life identified with the far right, just the opposite.
00:33:29.000Russell Brand was a man of the left, and to most people, a cultural figure.
00:33:35.000And so he had the power, the capacity to persuade, and that was the threat.
00:33:41.000So here's some additional information from our own internal research facilities.
00:33:46.000March 2022, UK government organisation Coda Story publishes a story on its anti-disinformation newsletter linking Russell Brand broadcasts on Ukraine with pro-China propaganda.
00:33:56.000The organisation is funded by the National Endowment for Democracy, the non-profit under the State Department that was spun out of CIA initiatives in the 1980s.
00:34:04.000You can go back and look at the content we were making in March 22.
00:34:07.000A lot of it stands up pretty well actually.
00:34:09.000We were asking questions about the handling of the pandemic worldwide.
00:34:13.000We were also questioning the legitimacy of Western funding of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia and its potential to escalate out of control.
00:34:20.000Look at what's happened in the meantime.
00:34:22.000It is extraordinary, isn't it, to see the UK government, CIA-inspired organisations, accusing an online public commentator of spreading Chinese propaganda.
00:34:31.000To this day, I don't know what that might even mean.
00:34:34.000I don't have strong views about China.
00:34:36.000I certainly don't advocate for China's political policy or cultural policy.
00:34:39.000I'm sort of a bit interested in Buddhism and ninjas.
00:34:45.000Logically, AI is hired and paid $3.2 million by the Department of Digital Culture, Media and Sport.
00:34:51.000Logically AI disputes Brown's criticism of the central bank digital currency and claims such concerns are just conspiracy theories without evidence.
00:35:00.000Ironically providing us with some evidence that many of these theories have some validity.
00:35:04.000We would have been talking about central currencies and their potential to be manipulated and to facilitate social credit score type systems where in conjunction potentially with passports for certain medical measures they could be used to for example Freeze people's bank accounts, as has happened already in China.
00:35:22.000Or people who haven't taken certain medications could be refused access to certain venues, as has happened across the world already.
00:35:28.000Or people applying for universities might not be permitted to get into that university, as recommended by Anthony Fauci when talking about universities and said when people are told they won't be able to join a certain university they'll lose their ideological bullshit.
00:35:41.000So many of these stories, all of these stories in fact, are either based on publicly available content, the views of academics, and admittedly when it came to the pandemic, often the views of academics who themselves have been censored.
00:35:53.000And much of the reporting that we've looked at indicates that I'm not alone in this kind of censorship, I'm just one of the more public and visible figures conveying information that is widely available.
00:36:01.000Indeed, in the comments under here, many of you will be going You're going, I've known this for ages, won't you?
00:36:05.000I knew this years ago, what took you so long to catch up?
00:36:07.000When it comes to the Ukraine war, or the CIA, or Project Paperclip, or disinformation, or malinformation, or misinformation, there's no claim that this information is exclusively available here, just that clearly it must have caught the attention of people that care about it, and indeed we've made Freedom of Information Act a request to many of these organisations, and it's astonishing when you do it, they really drag their heels, they do not want to hand over the information about how extensively they've been spying on you, surveilling you.
00:36:32.000Our concern about CBDCs to be dismissed as a conspiracy theory is yet more ridiculous when we know that during the trucker protest people did have their bank accounts frozen and it's since been decreed that that was illegal activity.
00:36:43.000We were simply pointing out that CBDCs would make it even easier for governments to shut down private citizens' personal finances Then it already is.
00:36:53.000We already know that many tech sites that handle finance and funding will cooperate with governments and we commented some years ago, I mean the comment ends up, you can go and look at it yourselves, we simply commented that this would be vulnerable to exploitation and I think that's pretty legitimate.
00:37:07.000Indeed many of the stories that we cover are centrally about the transference of individual personal sovereignty To state or corporate interests, and often significantly partnerships between corporate and state interests, which is precisely what's happening here.
00:37:20.000Groups like Logically AI or many of the other agencies that seem to be involved in just this story receive government funding, that's taxpayer funding, that's your pounds and dollars in taxes in order to spy on you, surveil you, and clearly, as you'll hear later, publicly attack you.
00:37:35.000Think Tank, the Institute for Strategic Dialogue hired by the Department of Digital Culture, Media and Sport.
00:37:41.000You've heard that name a couple of times now, and that is the department that Caroline Dynadge MP runs.
00:37:47.000Caroline Dynadge is of course the Member of Parliament that petitioned X, Rumble, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram to demonetize, censor and control our content.
00:37:59.000And in the case of YouTube, they responded positively.
00:38:02.000This is the department that was receiving government funding to carry out this type of operation.
00:38:07.000Think Tank, the Institute for Strategic Dialogue hired by the Department of Digital Culture, Media and Sport, targets Russell Brand as a conspirituality influencer that promotes anti-climate narratives.
00:38:19.000Multiple UK newspaper articles, from newspapers including the Times, Telegraph and Independent, label Russell Brand a conspiracy theorist for his videos regarding big pharma vaccines and US government foreign policy and the military-industrial complex, although there were pieces also in the New York Times, the Atlantic and numerous other legacy media sites.
00:38:36.000We also have reported somewhat extensively on the Trusted News Initiative, which are a conglomerate or cartel The days of legacy media companies competing with one another for scoops are long gone.
00:38:51.000They are competing against independent media and essentially, as they themselves explicitly admit, attempting to choke out control and destroy independent media, usually through misinformation and malinformation type angles.
00:39:05.000Public Good Partnerships, a content moderation non-profit funded by a lobby group for Pfizer and Moderna, repeatedly targets Brand as a conspiracy theorist for pointing out revolving door corruption in the UK and for discussing evidence that the US government misled the public about the justification for vaccine mandates.
00:39:21.000Now, I know you're a well-informed audience, so you know how well undergirded those arguments are.
00:39:26.000I also know that you are aware of that actual revolving door and you can actually see the faces and know the names of some of the people in that revolving door.
00:39:33.000Jonathan Van Tam, who was significant in this country for advising people to take vaccines, now works at Moderna.
00:39:38.000You'll be aware that at least two FDA officials now work The fact that there are financial ties and relationships between private corporations, in particular big pharma, military industrial complex, the financial industry, the energy industry and the state, is hardly a conspiracy theory.
00:39:55.000You can observe that, you can track that, it's visible, it's understood, it's evident, it's obvious.
00:40:00.000Nowhere in his reports on Bran did Moderna highlight any incorrect information, but the reports noted that they monitored Bran because he has a large platform with over 6.6... 6.7.
00:40:11.0006.7 million YouTube subscribers and over 21 million followers across multiple social media platforms.
00:40:17.000Moreover, his videos are widely circulated in anti-vaccine spaces, where he's viewed as a truth-teller and a threat to authority, and that Bran maintains support from Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk.
00:40:26.000These are just a few of the peculiar investigations and operations involving the government, deep state, former employees, deep state inspired agency, big pharma funded organisations prior to the legacy media attacks in September.
00:40:43.000Brand is subject to an investigation by the Times, the Sunday Times, and Channel 4's dispatches.
00:40:47.000Themselves, legacy media organisations, cooperating in a shared endeavour.
00:40:51.000YouTube demonetises Brand's channel without there being any content violations on the platform.
00:40:55.000This is the first time a content creator has been financially punished by the company for reasons other than the videos published on the site.
00:41:02.000Joe Ondrak, Logically AI's investigations head, provided different quotes to nearly half a dozen news outlets, including Vice, Wired, the BBC, And two separate articles in the Times that depicted Brand as a dangerous purveyor of misinformation who had finally been held to account.
00:41:18.000So Joe Ondrak, Logically's head of investigation, is essentially a government funded proxy whose funding comes from you, the taxpayer, telling you that we convey dangerous information without ever telling you that you fund him telling you that via the government who plainly have an agenda.
00:41:38.000I mean an agenda perhaps is a pejorative term because governments have to have policies, they have to have ideas, you have to decide whether or not you trust them, their ideas, their policies or agenda.
00:41:48.000Logically claims that social media accounts trotting out the innocent until proven guilty refrain were among those perpetuating common myths about sexual assault.
00:41:56.000The site published a follow-up video reiterating the claim that those seeking the presumption of innocence for brand, a principle dating back to the Magna Carta, were spreading a dangerous myth.
00:42:04.000It's difficult for me to be objective on a subject that so plainly includes me and in this instance is about me.
00:42:10.000But what I can safely say is not about me is the Magna Carta and the presumption of innocence.
00:42:15.000Those are principles that have been valued since the dawn of civilization of this nature.
00:42:21.000The idea that a government-funded agency, paid proxies that exist solely to crush dissent, would start to invite us to challenge some of our deepest-held beliefs about the judiciary, about democracy, about civilization, about sovereign individual rights, about the Magna Carta itself, shows you that what's being attempted is some kind of cultural reset that will play out way beyond this individual story.
00:42:43.000For me, this is part of that Orwellian doublespeak trend that we're seeing everywhere.
00:42:46.000When you see Jens Stoltenberg saying, we have to continue with the war, It's the only way to get peace.
00:42:52.000That the meaning of language is being flipped before our very eyes.
00:42:56.000A kind of psy-op against an entire population.
00:42:59.000A kind of berserker principle, designed to leave us all collectively bewildered about what right and wrong are anymore.
00:43:06.000I know you increasingly feel like you're not able to speak or open your mouth in case you say the wrong thing, that the rules might have changed.
00:43:13.000Now, innocent until proven guilty is being trotted out as a myth.
00:43:16.000The Magna Carta, a foundational principle, a keystone of most democracies, along with the American Constitution and many other semi-sacred, if secular, pieces of documentation, are being regarded as ideas that can be dispensed with.
00:43:30.000Ultimately, what it seems to me, is to legitimize control, to shut down dissent, to create a censorship industrial complex, that's already been created, but to ensure that the power So I didn't know any I just want to say I didn't know any of this and I was I experienced you because I didn't know you as a viewer and I remember thinking boy that is one of the most articulate critiques of the brand new war in Ukraine I had ever seen.
00:44:05.000I saw one of your videos on the war in Ukraine and this was in the winter of 2022, two years ago,
00:44:11.000and you were making kind of a remarkable case, not against the Ukrainian people and certainly not in favor
00:44:16.000of Russia, but that there might be real implications for the West
00:44:19.000if we get involved in a war that is not our own.
00:44:28.000He's also famously worked on Fox, becoming a phenomena on that channel.
00:44:32.000And I, belonging to the cultural groups that you might assume I belong to, always was somewhat suspicious about Fox anchors.
00:44:38.000Indeed, you can look on YouTube right now and see us deliberately riling Bill O'Reilly and deliberately trolling Fox as an institution and getting into it on a variety of subjects like war in the Middle East, the nature of their funding, their conservatism, all sorts of, I would say, anti-establishment attacks.
00:44:55.000I've remained anti-establishment for many, many years.
00:44:58.000Clearly Tucker Carlson is a person who's always had a particular perspective in the culture, but the culture has kind of moved around this outspoken pundit.
00:45:06.000Tucker Carlson was kicked out of Fox News for a bunch of reasons that are still quite clandestine and ill-understood.
00:45:14.000No one really knows why Tucker Carlson was sacked from Fox, but some people think it's because he became increasingly outspoken around war, specifically anti-war narratives.
00:45:21.000And I'm still struck that claim the mantle of progressive or liberal don't identify that Tucker Carlson is perhaps one of the most outspoken critics of war, all war, And for me, the position of peace, of diplomacy, of ending war wherever possible ought to be a principle that wherever you are in the political spectrum, you aspire to.
00:45:41.000The idea now that war is becoming normalized as a kind of progressive perspective shows us once again how meaning is being flipped and inverted.
00:45:54.000In a sense, this conversation is a product of a cultural shift.
00:45:57.000Figures that used to exist within the media mainstream are drifting into new spaces, and we're not alone in that.
00:46:04.000Chris Hedges, a journalist who was once a prominent New York Times reporter and Pulitzer Prize winner, has been sort of cast out into the wilderness because of his anti-war views.
00:46:12.000Glenn Greenwald, one of the most influential news reporters of our time, now only works in online spaces.
00:46:18.000Essentially what happens, if you ask me, is legacy media spaces are entirely co-opted and essentially exist to amplify and normalize the message of the establishment.
00:46:26.000Independent media can be representative of a wide variety of views.
00:46:29.000Left, right, different cultural groups, Muslim, Judaic, Christian, secular, atheistic, materialistic, rational, all racial groups, different types of ideology.
00:46:38.000What is emerging, if you ask me, is a kind of alliance on the periphery and a distrust of centralized organizations, whether they are state, corporate, or deep state.
00:46:48.000And it's very interesting to see all of these organizations coalesce, stories that particularly relate to free speech.
00:46:53.000Because as is often said, free speech is a fundamental principle.
00:46:56.000Because if you can control the conversation, you can control ideas around war, you can control ideas around profit, you can control All ideas!
00:47:04.000If people can't speak freely, for example around issues during the pandemic, then you achieve a consensus and you shut down the idea even that there are alternative perspectives and points of view.
00:47:13.000In the end what you're left with is one homogenized blob of truth, virulently and vehemently controlled by centralized organizations that are struggling to work out how you can possibly control the narrative and vast populations At a time when we can all independently communicate with one another, exchange ideas, reach consensus, and oppose the establishment.
00:47:31.000And that, I believe, is one of the defining, if not the defining, problem of our time.
00:47:35.000What I missed, and I'm now seeing, is that in March of 2022, you were denounced by an organization connected directly to the US government as an agent of Chinese propaganda.
00:47:50.000For your views on Ukraine, these in my reading of it, isn't it?
00:47:54.000And we haven't, by the way, talked about this affair.
00:47:56.000But my reading of it is these were the early seeds of a very deceptive plant that flowered more than a year later in September when you were accused of these crimes.
00:48:08.000and demonetizing and censored as a result of that.
00:48:11.000But looking back, so you were accused by a group called Coda Story.
00:48:17.000It published a story on its anti-disinformation newsletter.
00:48:21.000Now, Coda Story is connected to the UK government, but it's also connected to the CIA.
00:48:27.000How does it make you feel to know that you were in the crosshairs
00:48:32.000of two of the most powerful governments in the world, and they're intel agencies?
00:48:37.000The UK government censorship that Tucker's referring to was driven by MP Dame Caroline Dainage, the head of the UK Parliament's Culture, Media and Sports Committee.
00:48:45.000Dainage's husband was a commander in the British Army's PSYOPS division, the 77th Brigade, who were deployed straight from a tour of the Middle East, implementing behavioural change strategies against ISIS to countering dis- and misinformation during the COVID-19 crisis.
00:48:58.000That sounds like such an anomalous jump and peculiar marriage.
00:49:01.000Someone that works for the Department of Culture, Sports, Media and Entertainment, but ultimately advocates for censorship.
00:49:09.000Indeed, it is she who sponsored the new online safety bill, which is alarmingly similar to numerous censorship bills across the world.
00:49:15.000In Brazil, in Ireland, across the EU, United States, Canada's one's already been implemented.
00:49:20.000And it's an extraordinary detail that her husband is a military That extraordinary though it sounds is not an anomalous or even particularly unusual journey.
00:49:40.000It is very common these days for techniques and ideas that are developed to counter foreign enemies to be utilized with domestic populations.
00:49:48.000What essentially appears to be happening is Our independent thought, our freedom, our ability to communicate, our ability to cultivate relationships, develop ideas and importantly oppose authority is being regarded as a type of terrorism, certainly at very least a type of threat.
00:50:05.000This is obviously a story that's that's continuing to unfold and that I'm just a small part
00:50:08.000of. That's why I'm very grateful to have conversations with people like Jay Bhattacharya
00:50:11.000from Stanford who was subject to the same kind of scrutiny from
00:50:14.000the same organizations. Journalists like Matt Taibbi and Michael Schellenberger
00:50:17.000who report on the censorship industrial complex and why I'm
00:50:20.000very keen to cultivate and create relationships with people from across
00:50:23.000the political spectrum because I'm beginning to think that spectrum is fracturing
00:50:27.000into a new prism of potential new light, of new relationships between
00:50:31.000different Let me know what you think in the chat.
00:50:33.000ideological factions that previously would have been opposed to one another,
00:50:37.000but are increasingly realizing now that we are at a unique tipping point.
00:50:40.000And unless we find new ways to resist these globalist forces together,
00:50:44.000we are one by one or in vast numbers collectively going to be facing tyranny
00:50:49.000such as we have never seen before, all the while being told it's for our convenience and our safety.
00:50:54.000But that's just what I think. Let me know what you think in the chat.
00:53:22.000Well, that's a groundbreaking story, because I've seen that Joe Biden, and he looks like he's in pretty good control of his faculties to me, as long as you don't ask him to leave a stage or talk.
00:53:31.000So you're pretty high up in the government.
00:54:26.000I once had a long conversation with Brene Brown and she said that in spite of having once worked as a social worker and seeing levels of depravity and abuse that were heartbreaking, She ultimately, after much contemplation and reflection, determined that everyone was really doing their best.
00:54:42.000If we can, in a Christian way, think of and love our enemies.
00:56:45.000Hey, so here are some of the memes that have emerged from that.
00:56:47.000🎵 Wait, I knew I recognised you from somewhere.
00:57:00.000Hey, I know you lot love this because White House senior advisor John Podesta, whose massive batch of WikiLeaks emails put Hillary Clinton on the back hoof, is replacing John Kerry as Joe Biden's climate czar.
00:57:22.000The White House senior adviser John Podesta will add international climate policy to his job responsibilities, replacing the special climate envoy John Kerry as the top US official on international climate issues, the White House said on Wednesday.
00:57:34.000Kerry announced in mid-January that he would step down from the climate job to work on Joe Biden's re-election campaign.
00:57:39.000He would take over Kerry's responsibilities, though not his title, when he departs.
00:58:06.000This is one of my favorite moments of watching a politician confronted with home troops ever, I think.
00:58:10.000I just don't agree with your facts, which began with a presentation of one of the most outrageously persistent lies that I hear, which is this private jet.
00:58:30.000And obviously, it's pretty stupid to talk about coming in a private jet from the State Department up here.
00:58:35.000Mr. Secretary, do you stand by that testimony that you've never owned or... I personally... ...your family, by your family... I personally... Oh, uh-oh!
00:59:16.000A more succinct and damning comment there from him.
00:59:19.000Hey, you know we did a bunch of stories based on the reporting of Lee Fang about Moderna spying on Me and Jay Bacharia and Michael Schellenberger.
00:59:32.000I think Megyn Kelly, well I know Megyn Kelly, was also spied on by Moderna, surveilled, because of her telling, because of, I think she was sharing personal stories about her own experience with the medications.
00:59:46.000It's pretty extraordinary, yeah, Moderna, no, I see you, UFO limited hangout, I see you.
00:59:51.000Thanks to Lee Fang, who did an investigation, and he has revealed that Moderna was very, very upset, among other things, about the fact that I said on this show that after I had gotten my third COVID shot, my booster, which you needed in order to operate in New York to do anything, I developed a positive on an autoimmune test that my general practitioner gave me, and then I- Mental, because New York, they went for it.
01:00:18.000New York, you couldn't go anywhere, it was basically a mandate.
01:00:21.000Had to go to a rheumatologist and all this stuff.
01:00:30.000Gareth Roy's hair is pretty good as well.
01:00:31.000I can see it just above the camera and maybe you should seek him out in the reflection.
01:00:36.000I got targeted by Moderna who is very worried that This would add to the growing concern around autoimmune disorders following COVID-19 vaccinations.
01:00:47.000They're admitting internally that it's a problem, but they're upset that I am talking about it and Alex Berenson and Russell Brand and Michael Schellenberger and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya are talking about it, Glenn, because they don't want it discussed and the mainstream media outlets were only too happy to comply.
01:01:04.000Hey Russ, you and Dan Bongino running the same clip today.
01:01:07.000I love Dan Bongino, but I've not had a chance to see his show today, so we do not know.
