Stay Free - Russel Brand - Inside Trump’s Inauguration: Media Frenzy, Pardons, and Power Plays – SF524

00:00:00.000 Thank you.

00:00:29.000 Thank you.

00:08:37.000 Thank you for being alive.

00:08:38.000 How glorious that you came here.

00:08:40.000 Well done.

00:08:41.000 You made the right choice.

00:08:43.000 I don't mean just watching this stream that you could be watching on X or you could be watching on YouTube or you could be watching on Rumble Premium for an ad-free experience that will give you access to additional content of not only mine but Crowder, Bongino, Glenn Greenwald.

00:08:58.000 Rumble surely now is a citadel of great glory.

00:09:02.000 Yella Vangella just saw a video of Russell hanging with Rabbi Shmuley.

00:09:07.000 That must have been at the Maha Ball that I went to in Washington.

00:09:11.000 I am back from D.C. I've still got the snow on my boots, baby.

00:09:15.000 I've still got the snow on my boots.

00:09:17.000 There's Joe.

00:09:18.000 It's almost as if to prove it.

00:09:21.000 He's in there.

00:09:22.000 So we've got a fantastic show.

00:09:24.000 I've got so much to talk about.

00:09:25.000 Let me know in the comments and chat which of these subjects you're most excited about discovering the ulterior deep truths behind.

00:09:32.000 Is it Elon Musk's salute?

00:09:39.000 Involuntary, theoretic, bodily gesture or summonsing of the spirit of Hitler? 0.67

00:09:45.000 One of the things I think, he's just one of them.

00:09:47.000 There's several.

00:09:48.000 But one of the things I think is like...

00:09:50.000 The thing that was bad about Hitler wasn't that he did that. 0.74

00:09:54.000 Like, you know, like, do you know what?

00:09:56.000 I hate that, Hitler. 0.92

00:09:57.000 Always doing that.

00:09:58.000 If he'd just done that, that would have kept him out of track.

00:10:01.000 That's no problem in and of itself.

00:10:05.000 It's merely that you see that as being somehow the physical signal and semaphore.

00:10:12.000 Of, well, what?

00:10:14.000 Genocide, oppression, secret UFOs.

00:10:17.000 The Nazis represent so much these days, it's difficult to unpick. 0.90

00:10:22.000 Oh no, in the local chat, you're going to get cancelled for that.

00:10:25.000 That wasn't a real...

00:10:25.000 How do you...

00:10:27.000 That's how it works, I suppose, isn't it?

00:10:29.000 Censorship and control.

00:10:30.000 You have so many things that you can't do that you might have to just put one thumb in your mouth and the other one in your bottom and sit still till you're dead. 0.89

00:10:41.000 I'm not taking anything in. 0.51

00:10:42.000 I'm not putting anything out.

00:10:44.000 I'm done!

00:10:45.000 I'm done!

00:10:46.000 Like as if you separate yourself from the living flow of water, from the eternally available presence of Christ, from the eternal present.

00:10:54.000 In this moment, everything's a burning bush.

00:10:56.000 Glory of the heavenly Lord.

00:10:59.000 A sensitive heart's careful, Russell.

00:11:02.000 Like, if you're describing a Sieg Heil, that is not doing a Sieg Heil.

00:11:07.000 However, how do we do it?

00:11:09.000 Yeah, that one really looks like one.

00:11:10.000 It really looks like one.

00:11:11.000 And then there's Barack Obama doing it.

00:11:13.000 Then there's Hillary Clinton doing it. 1.00

00:11:14.000 Anyway, this is just one of our potential subjects.

00:11:16.000 There's that.

00:11:17.000 There's Trump didn't put his hand on the Bible.

00:11:20.000 Hmm.

00:11:21.000 We're going to be getting into that.

00:11:22.000 There's so many exciting ones.

00:11:24.000 The AOC's take on Elon's Sieg Heil.

00:11:29.000 Oh, pardons.

00:11:30.000 Let me know in the comments and chat how you feel about this.

00:11:32.000 If you're watching us on X, if you're watching us on YouTube, do we even know how to stream on Facebook?

00:11:37.000 Because we can do everything on Facebook now.

00:11:39.000 That's why all of our...

00:11:40.000 We're putting everything up on Facebook because Facebook do not censor anymore.

00:11:47.000 Facebook, so they can all go up on Facebook.

00:11:48.000 So we're going to be talking about pardons.

00:11:50.000 Let me know in the comments in chat what you want to hear about that.

00:11:53.000 Like, are Joe Biden's pardons bad and Trump's pardons good?

00:11:58.000 Or are Trump's pardons good and Biden's bad?

00:12:02.000 So much to discuss.

00:12:04.000 So many things to talk about.

00:12:06.000 And if you're not a Rumble Premium member yet, you might consider becoming a Rumble Premium member when you see that...

00:12:15.000 This is from earlier this week, Dallas Jenkins' take on the democratization of media.

00:12:22.000 Have a look at this.

00:12:23.000 I still saw Hollywood not as some sort of closed system in which you have to speak the right words to be granted access.

00:12:33.000 Now that might be true in certain studios, that might be true in certain areas.

00:12:37.000 But there's no reason why we can't do our thing, too.

00:12:40.000 That's where The Chosen came out of, was, alright, maybe the studios that currently have the most influence aren't interested in this show, but that doesn't mean this show can't be made.

00:12:52.000 I love Dallas and Amanda.

00:12:53.000 If you haven't seen that episode of Break Bread, watch it now.

00:12:57.000 And you might want to watch the latest Break Bread that I just made with the amazing Nathan Finocchio.

00:13:02.000 Is it Finocchio or Finocchio?

00:13:04.000 Pinocchio is the same as I would say Pinocchio.

00:13:07.000 Okay, and here's a...

00:13:08.000 That was on Rumble Premium and on Locals.

00:13:16.000 If you're a Locals member, hello to all of you there, Mrs. CMS and D-Day 99. You guys still get all the additional content and early access and that, but generally speaking, we're trying to get people to sign up to Rumble Premium.

00:13:27.000 You know how marketing works and how business is.

00:13:30.000 Johnny C-Note.

00:13:32.000 In the rumble chat, I'd like to think a little more nuanced than Trump's pardon is Joe Biden's pardon.

00:13:41.000 I see what you're saying.

00:13:42.000 You're saying I'd like to think we're a little more nuanced than Trump's pardon is good and Joe Biden's pardon is bad.

00:13:48.000 Yes, I think.

00:13:49.000 Thank you for mentioning nuance because when I look at those pardons, I... Those pardons.

00:13:56.000 Pardon? 0.86

00:13:57.000 When I look at those pardons, yes, you're forced to reflect that it seems at least that the Democrats' position on the potential pardons that Trump could have made last time he left office seem, in retrospect, ludicrously, ludicrously hypocritical and contradictory. 0.68

00:14:15.000 So, like, if you watch the collages...

00:14:18.000 And montages of legacy media lineups saying, if he were to pardon Don Jr., it would be the worst thing in human history.

00:14:29.000 And yet pardons have come tumbling.

00:14:30.000 Let me know, guys, in the chat, because we've only got limited time.

00:14:33.000 And I definitely want to discuss the Hitler salute. 0.94

00:14:35.000 Definitely want to discuss No Hand on the Bible.

00:14:37.000 Definitely want to discuss the bishop.

00:14:39.000 What's her name again?

00:14:40.000 Oh, Jay, will you find out her name?

00:14:41.000 I keep forgetting it.

00:14:43.000 All you lot in the chat can tell me.

00:14:45.000 I definitely want to talk about her.

00:14:47.000 And I also...

00:14:48.000 There's one more thing I want to talk about.

00:14:50.000 Well, I'll remember that in a second.

00:14:51.000 But let's just...

00:14:51.000 I was at the inauguration.

00:14:54.000 Why do you think it was inside?

00:14:56.000 Was it...

00:14:56.000 Let me know in the comments and chat.

00:15:00.000 Let me know which one.

00:15:02.000 Marion Edna.

00:15:05.000 Edgar, are you sure?

00:15:07.000 Marion Edgar.

00:15:08.000 I looked it up earlier and I feel like it was different than that.

00:15:14.000 Bud.

00:15:15.000 That's it.

00:15:16.000 Marion Edgar Bard.

00:15:17.000 So what she referred to as generally.

00:15:19.000 Anyway, let's have a look at some of the lighter moments from the inauguration experience, I'm calling it.

00:15:29.000 There's Mark Zuckerberg showing a little bit of humanity there with a glance down at the visible upper chest of Jeff Bezos' wife.

00:15:41.000 Did you see Megyn Kelly talking about whether or not that outfit was appropriate?

00:15:45.000 Is that outfit appropriate?

00:15:46.000 Is it appropriate even to have dress codes?

00:15:49.000 It's interesting, isn't it?

00:15:50.000 Because you're continually attributing meaning to everything.

00:15:53.000 What does that mean?

00:15:54.000 Well, we know initially it meant Hail Caesar, then it meant Hail Hitler, then it meant Neo-Nazi, and now it means you better be careful where you put your hands for the rest of your life, because otherwise, one way or another, people will turn it into a crime retrospective.

00:16:10.000 Perspectively.

00:16:11.000 Lara Trump's wife points out her husband Eric's hand gesture.

00:16:14.000 Oh no, did he do one?

00:16:15.000 Oh, Eric!

00:16:16.000 That's funny, because she's like, she's...

00:16:28.000 I reckon that's innocent husband and wife. 1.00

00:16:30.000 Don't do that thing with your hand, you idiot. 1.00

00:16:33.000 Maybe he does that a lot. 1.00

00:16:35.000 Once when I was having a photograph done with Chris Pavlovsky, the CEO of Rumble, we stood like that.

00:16:43.000 We were standing next to each other, and obviously I'm in photos a lot.

00:16:46.000 It's part of my game. 0.99

00:16:48.000 But Chris stood like that, and I went, Chris, take your hands off your genitals. 1.00

00:16:53.000 But that's quite standard. 0.98

00:16:54.000 Look at how many photos people do that in.

00:16:56.000 It's a very common pose.

00:16:58.000 But I don't think...

00:16:59.000 Because I watch a lot of content when people sort of look at people doing that, you know, like covering an eye, like that's Illuminati stuff.

00:17:06.000 And, you know, I think that Illuminati stuff might be legit.

00:17:12.000 Anyway, what I mean to say by the rather glib remark that Illuminati stuff might be legit is when people cover one eye, do you think that's the culture indicating to you that there are esoteric movements that...

00:17:27.000 You know, you know what I mean.

00:17:29.000 Anyway, let's get into some more extraordinary body language, because George W. Bush, I've seen some good memes about this, like it's the moment you realise, you know, people tend to comment on crypto a lot when using these memes, have you noticed that?

00:17:41.000 Or the moment you realise that the files on 9-11 are about to be released.

00:17:45.000 Here is George Bush, George W. Bush's facial expressions contorting myself.

00:17:50.000 Myself, my personal reaction is that he had a sort of childlike beauty to him.

00:17:54.000 Just before he opened his eyes, when his eyes darted from side to side, that's when I thought, ah, he's sweet.

00:18:15.000 He never meant that Iraq war.

00:18:17.000 He's trying his best.

00:18:19.000 He's just trying his best.

00:18:20.000 But there's no mistaking what's happening here.

00:18:25.000 Just simply to describe it would be enough for most people.

00:18:28.000 Donald Trump and J.D. Vance do the YMCA, but with swords.

00:18:33.000 We need the president, and we need the vice president, and we need this absurd concoction of a dance to a disco, sort of novelty hit, really, from 50 years ago, or was it about 40 years ago at least?

00:18:46.000 That's actually happening now.

00:18:48.000 Everything's bleeding into a giddy swirl of ulterior and alternative realities co-joining and co-existing.

00:18:55.000 How else could it be possible that the Vice President and the President, armed with ceremonial swords, are cutting a cake, which is already, let's face it, a rather interesting gesture, but nevertheless a traditional one, while dancing to the YMCA. This is reality now, children.

00:19:12.000 get used to it harmless fun so

00:19:37.000 So some gestures don't appear to contain any deep and terrifying meaning.

00:19:43.000 Others might.

00:19:44.000 Roy Yee asks, how much is Rumble Premium?

00:19:47.000 Rass, oh, and spells my name R-A-S-S-A-L-L. I think it's about like $9.99 a month.

00:19:53.000 But as I say, you get all of Rumble's content.

00:19:55.000 And also when you watch, there won't be programmatic ads in your content, which a lot of people really seem to like.

00:20:01.000 Let's get into it now then.

00:20:05.000 Oh! 0.60

00:20:06.000 Okay, if you're watching on X or YouTube, we'll continue streaming for as long as we can.

00:20:13.000 But ultimately, this show is made on Rumble and we do additional content on Rumble Premium.

00:20:19.000 So! 0.81

00:20:20.000 Of course, the inauguration was going to provide numerous moments of contention and contemplation.

00:20:27.000 There are so many to get through today, but we'll do our best.

00:20:31.000 Let's start simply with Elon Musk's apparent salute.

00:20:36.000 Of course, you, like me, consume certain strands and streams of media, so you'll have already seen by now, I'm sure, various famous people.

00:20:46.000 Doing Nazi salutes.

00:20:47.000 You might have seen the Taylor Swift one.

00:20:49.000 Have you seen the Kamala Harris one?

00:20:50.000 Have you seen almost everyone doing it?

00:20:52.000 Have you seen the YMCA one?

00:20:54.000 And now, should I get that dubious honour of being worthy of further cancellation, here's me, while physically demonstrating what a Nazi salute is, potentially being used.

00:21:06.000 Now, although it's kind of a semi-trivial point, it's worth mentioning, isn't it?

00:21:12.000 The gesture itself and the shape of the body, if you're suggesting that that has an absolute meaning or even an encoded meaning, you're making a claim that you understand an absolute reality.

00:21:24.000 It's possible, at least possible, that Elon Musk tapped into intuitively...

00:21:31.000 Whatever that feeling is to sort of pat your heart and to extend your arm.

00:21:36.000 If any of you have ever tried Kundalini Yoga, they talk about the specificity and meaning and power of certain bodily positions.

00:21:44.000 There are various sort of yogic positions that are designed to solicit certain types of energy or power, which of course is another word for energy.

00:21:53.000 And if you think there's no meaning at all in body language, well, do you like it when people point at you like that?

00:21:59.000 Do you know what it means when people put up their thumb like that, or put their thumb down like that, or if you're British, do that, or if you're American, do that?

00:22:06.000 All of these things have encoded meaning.

00:22:09.000 What it becomes interesting, I suppose, is when you find distinct cultures and languages that happen upon the same word or sound or physical gesture to mean the same thing.

00:22:20.000 Indeed, the work of Carl Jung and subsequently the work of Joseph Campbell is built upon just such a foundation that there are embedded archetypal meanings.

00:22:28.000 They're expressed through story and folklore, symbol and image.

00:22:32.000 Here we would best refer to maybe, in a contemporary case, Jonathan Pajot, a great expert on iconography and symbology.

00:22:40.000 But any artist, musician, painter, writer has to understand symbolism to some degree.

00:22:46.000 So we're in this extraordinary territory of do actions have meaning?

00:22:53.000 And do they have a consensual meaning?

00:22:55.000 Now I suppose you're going to discuss that in inauguration because an inauguration is by its nature a ceremony where human beings through action appeal to an absolute reality.

00:23:07.000 This is an anointing.

00:23:09.000 After this, a man who wasn't president, well he was because he was president before, but then there was a bit where he wasn't president, will once again be president.

00:23:16.000 Like you or I can't just suddenly claim to be president.

00:23:19.000 There has to be an election, then there has to be a ceremony, then there has to be an...

00:23:22.000 So let's just acknowledge we were on a symbolic occasion as symbolic beings who deal with symbolism.

00:23:31.000 And there's symbolics right there.

00:23:34.000 Let's have a look at CNN's interpretation of Musk's bodily action before determining for ourselves whether or not we think there's ill intent, deliberate coded meaning, or is it...

00:23:48.000 You know, again, you could probably use January 6th as an example here.

00:23:51.000 When you look at January 6th, do you see an insurrection that warranted punishment, or do you see a legitimate protest that was subsequently repackaged by the media in order to generate hysteria?

00:24:03.000 Some people, there's a binary reaction to those questions.

00:24:07.000 Let's have a look.

00:24:07.000 Not binary.

00:24:08.000 There's probably a multitude of reactions, but there's a significant division and polarisation around that subject, we'd all agree.

00:24:14.000 That's a continual possibility.

00:24:16.000 Let's have a look.

00:24:18.000 Let's have a look at CNN's coverage.

00:24:22.000 Someone said, being a sellout is so on brand.

00:24:25.000 What do you mean by that?

00:24:26.000 What do you mean?

00:24:28.000 Who could possibly sell?

00:24:30.000 Who could possibly buy when we are connected to the absolute and limitless?

00:24:34.000 Actually, what you could buy is Rumble Premium, or you could get on Locals for additional content.

00:24:38.000 But outside of that, there is nothing else being offered that you do not already possess for yourself.

00:24:43.000 All is yours.

00:24:44.000 The kingdom is yours, if you will, but enter it.

00:24:46.000 Let's have a look at CNN's coverage of the inauguration and Elon Musk's Nazi salute, or not?

00:24:52.000 I just want to look at that salute that he gave again.

00:24:55.000 Just if anybody missed it, we'll just show it again.

00:24:58.000 He's just wrapped up here.

00:24:59.000 You can hear the...

00:25:01.000 Now, if you were really trying to not do a Nazi salute, that would not be something that you would do.

00:25:08.000 If I was like, I'm not going to do anything that could, under any circumstances, by a media ravenous for controversy, could be interpreted as a Nazi salute.

00:25:23.000 I'm not going to do anything like that today.

00:25:26.000 That's...

00:25:30.000 That's pretty mad.

00:25:31.000 But then you have to, like, you know, I suppose you have to take it as far as you can take it of what does he mean.

00:25:38.000 Because on the same platform, as Elon Musk himself has pointed out, you will see him called a Zionist as a result of the tour and trip he took to Israel after apparently taking some positions that were not pro-Israeli earlier on in the October 7th passage or chapter of events.

00:25:57.000 So some people call him a Zionist there, and then others call him a Nazi.

00:26:00.000 Now, is there an intersection between those two categories that are opposing?

00:26:03.000 Is it possible, I ask you, let me know in the comments and chat, to be a Nazi and a Zionist simultaneously? 0.74

00:26:11.000 What would that mean?

00:26:14.000 Alright, so we just showed that.

00:26:16.000 We just showed that.

00:26:18.000 Right.

00:26:19.000 It was quick.

00:26:21.000 I'm not the first person to make this point.

00:26:23.000 It may have been Dave Rubin, in fact, that made it to me.

00:26:25.000 But if you look at that shot, it's indistinguishable from wrestling.

00:26:30.000 The sort of diaphanous space between entertainment and politics has been entirely permeated.

00:26:39.000 Pulling the strings, being a Zionist, Russell. 0.91

00:26:41.000 I actually do believe that Israel deserve a homeland and that the Jewish people have a homeland.

00:26:47.000 I'm a Christian, so I do believe that.

00:26:51.000 That war and violence is wrong.

00:26:54.000 And that there is a general sense that the more powerful, in inverted commas, tribe or group, have a greater responsibility.

00:27:04.000 Isn't that synonymous with power?

00:27:06.000 That's a question for you to answer.

00:27:08.000 To bring about peace in conflicts.

00:27:10.000 So I don't know what that makes me, baby.

00:27:11.000 But I tell you this.

00:27:13.000 Heavenly Father, I pray for peace.

00:27:15.000 I pray that the people of Israel and the people of Palestine...

00:27:19.000 Can live in peace.

00:27:21.000 And if it is your will, Lord, it will happen.

00:27:23.000 Let me know in the comments and chat if you saw our conversation with Adam Bola, the newly appointed special presidential envoy.

00:27:29.000 You might have missed it because we were doing it while the inauguration was happening.

00:27:32.000 And he brought on Bashar Mazri, the purported potential next leader of Palestine.

00:27:38.000 If you want to watch that, that's up.

00:27:39.000 And I'm trying to determine, is it like one of those things where the government and very powerful interests install a leader?

00:27:45.000 Or is it a potential for a...

00:27:49.000 Peaceful diplomatic solution to the seemingly endless horror of the Middle East. 0.89

00:27:54.000 So that's my position.

00:27:55.000 Can you describe that as either Zionist or anti-Semite?

00:27:59.000 Do you want to say I'm one of those things?

00:28:01.000 Because I don't, like, in my heart, I don't feel like that's what's defining me.

00:28:05.000 I feel that there's something else, bigger, more powerful.

00:28:07.000 But maybe you know better than me, baby.

00:28:09.000 I don't know what school you went to.

00:28:11.000 Let's have a look at what CNN is saying.

00:28:12.000 It was quick.

00:28:14.000 I think our viewers are...

00:28:16.000 Well, wherever it was, We're in the territory of madness now, aren't we?

00:28:21.000 Now, did you see that salute?

00:28:23.000 No, it is sport.

00:28:24.000 It is sport.

00:28:25.000 Because you're not saying...

00:28:26.000 What do you think is going to happen with this policy?

00:28:28.000 And is Doge really just the rebranding of some formerly existing department, as the lever suggests in their probably lever in American pronunciation, in their reporting on that subject?

00:28:39.000 No, they're not talking about that.

00:28:40.000 They're talking about the meaning of a bodily gesture.

00:28:43.000 I would say, if I had to answer it, that Elon Musk is just about autistic enough.

00:28:51.000 That under the conditions of adrenaline and excitement that surely accompanied that moment, he might have, like, in his mad and brilliant mind, reached for something and come up with that.

00:29:03.000 That would probably be my guess.

00:29:05.000 I certainly don't think it's this.

00:29:07.000 I'm a Nazi, actually.

00:29:09.000 I'm a Nazi, actually.

00:29:11.000 And I've kept it down till now, but this is my chance to really let rip on.

00:29:16.000 I don't think it's that.

00:29:17.000 I don't think it's that.

00:29:19.000 But neither...

00:29:20.000 What else do I think it's not?

00:29:21.000 That's basically it.

00:29:22.000 That's enough of a position.

00:29:23.000 I don't think this Justin...

00:29:26.000 He's already talking about it on X. You're watching this on X. You let me know.

00:29:29.000 I'm more interested in what you think, really.

00:29:31.000 I think it's impossible to work it out.

00:29:33.000 S. Ranger ID. Israel is a colonial invader in the land called Palestine. 0.77

00:29:37.000 I would say that's sort of reductive.

00:29:40.000 I know that's a lot of people's position, that they're colonial settlers.

00:29:42.000 I've heard Chris...

00:29:45.000 Hedges talk brilliantly about that.

00:29:48.000 The journalist Chris Hedges says if you just use the paradigm of colonial settlers, like your great country, America, then it fits with that paradigm, displacement and all that.

00:29:59.000 But then that's not looking at the entirety of the reality.

00:30:03.000 It would be, I would say, somewhat negligent.

00:30:05.000 Reject the documentation of, for example, the Torah and the Old Testament.

00:30:10.000 So you're going to have to somehow come up with an idea.

00:30:13.000 In order to undergird your prejudice and hatred, you're going to have to really summons up some powerful forces and ideas.

00:30:19.000 That's why I suggest...

00:30:20.000 Living, loving saviour to help you out of the inevitability of sin, fallenness, and brokenness.

00:30:27.000 Or you could do what CNN tells you.

00:30:30.000 I think our viewers are smart and they can take a look at that.

00:30:33.000 I've got news for you kids.

00:30:35.000 Your viewers aren't smart. 1.00

00:30:36.000 They're bloody stupid. 1.00

00:30:37.000 And you made them stupid. 1.00

00:30:38.000 And they can take a look at that. 1.00

00:30:40.000 But it certainly was...

00:30:41.000 It's not something that you typically see at American political rallies.

00:30:44.000 Put it that way.

00:30:45.000 No, no.

00:30:45.000 It was not something that you usually would...

00:30:47.000 Put it that way.

00:30:48.000 You know?

00:30:49.000 I'm going to say it without saying it.

00:30:52.000 You don't normally see that.

00:30:53.000 More like you might see it at a Nazi rally or a Roman rally.

00:30:57.000 Go on, just pop up all the pictures of Hillary Clinton doing it and Kamala Harris doing it. 0.93

00:31:02.000 So, come on.

00:31:04.000 Come on, we've got more important things.

00:31:05.000 I'd be more concerned about what this new AI initiative is going to be.

00:31:09.000 That's what worries me.

00:31:10.000 Now, I want to let you know this while this is on X. Do you ever see David Icke?

00:31:15.000 David Icke, if you were to put this into biblical terms, David Icke is like, I would say, sort of an Old Testament prophet.

00:31:24.000 Before I get into it, before you are disgusted or outraged, let me say this.

00:31:29.000 What I mean is, David Icke was talking about the subjects that have come to define the news agenda a long time ago.

00:31:36.000 And I think that must be very frustrating at times for David Icke.

00:31:40.000 Because David Icke, along with Alex Jones, who's gone on a different path, and as I say, who am I to judge anyone?

00:31:48.000 I don't understand enough.

00:31:50.000 But the two of them were talking about UFOs are real, for one thing.

00:31:54.000 There are subterranean clandestine groups that are behind power, and they will use organizations like the WHO. America's left that now.

00:32:06.000 Is that good or bad?

00:32:07.000 We'll be covering that later in the show.

00:32:08.000 The WEF and groups like the IMF, and there are deep...

00:32:12.000 Rooted powers.

00:32:13.000 They've been talking about that for a long time and I think they must get very frustrated.

00:32:16.000 Well, I'm talking more about David Icke.

00:32:17.000 Must get very frustrated because when I see on X, he sort of often reposts my stuff and he's like, whoa, Russell!

00:32:22.000 Jesus, I don't really know.

00:32:24.000 But I kind of get it in a way.

00:32:26.000 But I'd love you to come on the show, David Icke.

00:32:28.000 I'd love to talk to you.

00:32:29.000 I really am interested in you and what you believe.

00:32:34.000 I really am.

00:32:35.000 And I think people on our show would love it.

00:32:37.000 I think you'd love it.

00:32:37.000 Let me know if you'd like to see David Knight.

00:32:38.000 And if you're watching this on X, give him a post and tell him he's invited.

00:32:41.000 And we'll send him a formal, well, not formal invitation.

00:32:44.000 I mean, can it ever be formal if it's posted on a social media site?

00:32:49.000 Maybe we shouldn't judge the platforms.

00:32:50.000 I suppose once that would have been lapidary writing chiseled into stone.

00:32:55.000 Well, I can't take that seriously.

00:32:56.000 It's chiseled into a stone.

00:32:58.000 You know, I'm talking about the origin of writing or the written word.

00:33:02.000 Anyway, send him a post and ask him if he wants to come on because I'd love to talk to him about his take on some of these things.

00:33:08.000 Now, let's return to CNN, wrap up this subject.

00:33:11.000 If you're watching us on X or YouTube, we'll be with you for a few more minutes.

00:33:14.000 But please consider making your way over to Rumble, our home they support us so well.

00:33:17.000 And things are going to change on Rumble, I think, as a result of this inauguration.

00:33:21.000 We're in an interesting time.

00:33:23.000 There's going to be a lot learned, isn't there?

00:33:25.000 We're going to see now what this manifests as.

00:33:27.000 A lot of people will be very concerned about what's happening with the AI intervention.

00:33:32.000 Some of you will be talking about the mRNA technologies that are being enthusiastically backed.

00:33:36.000 Others yet will be saying, how amazing that, oh, who's the Silk Road guy?

00:33:41.000 Albrecht.

00:33:41.000 Some of you will be saying, Albrecht is being released.

00:33:44.000 This is already an indication that J6 rioters, protesters have been released.

00:33:49.000 This is already positive.

00:33:50.000 We're out of the WHO. That's already positive.

00:33:53.000 Bobby Kennedy stands on the precipice of serious governmental power.

00:33:58.000 Some of you will be excited, but, you know, if you just flick your eyes to the other side of the conversation, people are terrified.

00:34:03.000 And it's our job to find a pathway through this.

00:34:06.000 Is it?

00:34:06.000 Is that our job?

00:34:07.000 We have a job?

00:34:08.000 Are we unemployed?

00:34:08.000 Let us know.

00:34:09.000 Let's have a look at the rest of this CNN coverage, and we'll stay with you for another five minutes on X and YouTube before being on Rumble.

00:34:15.000 ...thing that you usually would see.

00:34:17.000 And it was quick, as you point out.

00:34:18.000 It was very quick, but it was...

00:34:20.000 It was in a moment of...

00:34:22.000 I mean, it's so funny.

00:34:23.000 It was quick.

00:34:24.000 It was quick. 0.98

00:34:25.000 You're a quick Nazi. 0.99

00:34:26.000 You're a rapid Nazi. 0.95

00:34:27.000 It's quantum fascism, really.

00:34:29.000 It's sub-molecular fascism, really.

00:34:32.000 It was there.

00:34:33.000 It was there, then it was not there.

00:34:35.000 It's like a Nazi entanglement. 0.80

00:34:38.000 The Nazis can be there and not there at the same time.

00:34:41.000 It was in a moment of intensity for him as he came out dancing, and then he did that.

00:34:47.000 He is a hero here. 1.00

00:34:49.000 Now she's talking about it, and he did that, like he got his dick out. 0.99

00:34:53.000 Like, he's not, like, indefatigable. 1.00

00:34:55.000 He did that.

00:34:56.000 It's not like, like, we're something like, well, that's absolute.

00:34:59.000 He did that.

00:35:00.000 That's not me.

00:35:02.000 Oh, no, when I did that, that wasn't a Hitler mustache, by the way.

00:35:05.000 I was just rubbing my nose.

00:35:06.000 I was rubbing my nose, and then I tried to switch up.

00:35:11.000 I mean, we can't get bogged down in it.

00:35:15.000 There's a lot to get done.

00:35:17.000 We could actually...

00:35:20.000 Participate in the coming of heaven to earth.

00:35:22.000 If we would only concentrate.

00:35:23.000 He is a hero here.

00:35:25.000 And I just want to say thank you for making it happen.

00:35:29.000 Thank you.

00:35:34.000 He actually said, mmm.

00:35:35.000 I mean, that's...

00:35:36.000 That was actually...

00:35:37.000 He verbalized it.

00:35:39.000 Mmm.

00:35:40.000 I mean, if there'd have been even a trace of seek in that, that'd be game of...

00:35:45.000 Seek!

00:35:47.000 Help! 0.98

00:35:47.000 No, that would be, that's game over now. 0.98

00:35:53.000 My heart goes out to you.

00:35:56.000 Did he add that?

00:35:57.000 My heart goes out to, what?

00:36:00.000 No!

00:36:00.000 My heart goes out to Nuremberg.

00:36:05.000 He's like, I think he saved it there.

00:36:09.000 It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured.

00:36:15.000 There you go.

00:36:17.000 But AOC, now AOC, she herself has made the unfortunate error of allowing her hand to be at this height.

00:36:26.000 But also, AOC, think about this.

00:36:30.000 AOC signifiers and signified.

00:36:32.000 What do you think?

00:36:33.000 Let me know in the comments and chat.

00:36:35.000 One, two, three.

00:36:36.000 She removed the pronouns, didn't she? 0.81

00:36:39.000 She very gently removed the pronouns.

00:36:42.000 So, like, the pronouns she, for a while, had she, her, didn't she?

00:36:45.000 On X? Like, let me know.

00:36:47.000 Look at her bio now on X. Does it still say she, her?

00:36:50.000 So she made that gesture, and then she withdrew that gesture.

00:36:54.000 So is it true, AOC, that you can withdraw gestures?

00:36:57.000 Let me know on X. Let me know in the Rumble chat right now.

00:37:01.000 Like you, Buddy 1205 and Roxy Ann, can you make a gesture and then withdraw a gesture?

00:37:05.000 Was the whole pronoun thing just a gesture, especially now that we know, that officially it's government policy, in the United States of America at least, that there are two genders.

00:37:15.000 Two agendas, but how many agendar?

00:37:18.000 Let's look at this.

00:37:19.000 Now, excuse me.

00:37:21.000 AOC talking about Elon's Sieg Heil.

00:37:25.000 Now, what I want you to watch for here is the emotional tone.

00:37:29.000 Pride faults.

00:37:29.000 Elon did nothing wrong.

00:37:30.000 Yeah, AOC believes in nothing, says Johnny C. Note in the Rumble chat.

00:37:36.000 But listen, note her tone and see if you feel she means it, right?

00:37:41.000 You might disagree with her.

00:37:42.000 You might disagree with her.

00:37:43.000 You do, I reckon, most of you.

00:37:46.000 Tell me if you think she believes it.

00:37:48.000 Tell me if you think she believes it herself.

00:37:52.000 That's the important distinction.

00:37:54.000 You know, like, if someone actually, like, do you think some people watched that and went like, oh!

00:38:00.000 Elon Musk is doing a C-cala and he's therefore part of the lineage of the actual Nazi. 0.59

00:38:04.000 Oh, no!

00:38:05.000 I know, I've seen that too.

00:38:07.000 Who's that dude?

00:38:07.000 Ian Carroll.

00:38:08.000 Because Ian Carroll posted stuff about Zionism and X and, like, he's now saying, aha, I managed to manoeuvre Musk away.

00:38:14.000 away.

00:38:15.000 That's a good little beat on X if you want to follow that thread for a minute.

00:38:19.000 But now let's look at AOC.

00:38:19.000 And what I want you to detect and test for in your spirit is sincerity.

00:38:24.000 I like...

00:38:26.000 You're gonna do a Sig Hail? 0.60

00:38:30.000 You're gonna do a Hail Hitler?

00:38:33.000 Or their rebrand a Roman salute?

00:38:36.000 From behind the presidential seal of the United States of America?

00:38:44.000 It's on.

00:38:46.000 It's on!

00:38:48.000 And what is so important for us to understand is that as long as we don't give up, it's not over.

00:39:00.000 It's not over.

00:39:02.000 It is not over. 1.00

00:39:06.000 Libs of TikTok started crying because I said over the weekend that Donald Trump is a rapist. 1.00

00:39:14.000 Her head's in the game. 1.00

00:39:15.000 Alright, this is what that is.

00:39:17.000 I think AOC is 100% entirely sincere.

00:39:19.000 I do think that.

00:39:21.000 But her reference to libs of TikTok means that she knows what libs of TikTok is.

00:39:28.000 She's been successfully trolled by them because she feels the need to respond to libs of TikTok.

00:39:34.000 So I would say this.

00:39:36.000 She's locked into that game.

00:39:39.000 Of winning the cultural space.

00:39:42.000 And did you know the comments under AOC? Not everyone's not going, well, come on, it's not that bad.

00:39:46.000 Everyone's like, this is it!

00:39:47.000 We're in serious trouble!

00:39:49.000 We are in serious trouble!

00:39:54.000 So the community that AOC, she, and I think it's okay to call her she, are in, believe that this is a sincere debate.

00:40:03.000 So they believe it, but that's because they've become tethered to the nihilistic threads and frequencies of the conditioned space of the culture.

00:40:14.000 We must not allow that to happen to us.

00:40:16.000 In a way, you can't be on either side of anything, because if you're on either side of anything, you are not with him, the almighty creator present in you now.

00:40:26.000 In this moment.

00:40:27.000 Let's watch the rest of it.

00:40:28.000 No, before we watch the rest of it, we make this content.

00:40:32.000 I don't want to break your heart, but we have commercial partnerships, okay?

00:40:37.000 Yeah, that's right.

00:40:38.000 We're engaged in the financial system.

00:40:41.000 I've not managed to elevate to a new plane of being where I don't need to feed my children or where I don't need to fart. 0.99

00:40:48.000 In fact, actually, in Matthew, I was reading this morning, you know, what goes into your mouth comes out your butt. 0.98

00:40:53.000 Our Lord and Saviour, I'm paraphrasing, but that was the basic message of it. 0.96

00:40:56.000 What's more important is not what goes in your mouth, but what comes out of your mouth, and that it's connected to your heart, i.e.

00:41:00.000 sincerity, what I was just talking about then.

00:41:02.000 And I can tell you now, I may be many things, and I am, but one of them is, I'm sincere, and you can trust me.

00:41:09.000 I'm open.

00:41:09.000 The heart is open.

00:41:10.000 And this is what I believe, 100% right now.

00:41:14.000 And with that in mind, here's a quick word from our sponsors.

00:41:17.000 Do you like taxes?

00:41:18.000 I don't.

00:41:19.000 That's why you should engage Tax Network USA. Are you overwhelmed with back taxes or unfiled returns?

00:41:25.000 Well, get ready, because since COVID relief ended, the IRS hired 20,000 new evil demons.

00:41:32.000 I meant tax agents proposing millions of pay-up notices for 2025. If you're worried about IRS collection tactics, you don't have to face them alone.

00:41:41.000 Tax Network USA is the nation's premier tax relief firm and has negotiated over $1 billion in tax relief for clients.

00:41:48.000 Our services include penalty forgiveness, hardship programs, where you might not have to repay anything until your tax day expires, and offer incompromised solutions for lump-sum settlements.

00:41:58.000 Whether you owe $10,000 or $10 million, our...

00:42:00.000 Experts are ready to assist you.

00:42:02.000 Let's face it, no one wants to give money to the government.

00:42:04.000 We don't trust the government.

00:42:06.000 What are they going to do with it?

00:42:06.000 A war?

00:42:07.000 Lock us in our houses?

00:42:09.000 Why is there still potholes in the road? 1.00

00:42:53.000 If you're watching us on YouTube, you can start the clock actually.

00:42:58.000 We're going to leave.

00:42:59.000 X, we're leaving just because we do the majority of our content on Rumble because we have a deal with Rumble.

00:43:06.000 And it's a good deal.

00:43:08.000 It's a good deal.

00:43:09.000 It's a beautiful deal with Rumble.

00:43:10.000 It's the best deal.

00:43:12.000 So watch us over there.

00:43:14.000 If you watch it on YouTube, obviously there's the additional advantage.

00:43:17.000 That Rumble will not censor my content or your content or your comments.

00:43:21.000 For example, Roxy Anne, she can say what she wants. 0.94

00:43:23.000 King Phenomenon, Roy, everyone can say what they want.

00:43:26.000 We're going to finish off talking about matters related to the inauguration and how they impact our understanding of depth and true, true meaning.

00:43:34.000 Click the link in the description.

00:43:35.000 Come on over.

00:43:36.000 Thank you for watching us.

00:43:37.000 We love you.

00:43:37.000 Bye.

00:43:38.000 Now, come on guys on Rumble. 0.98

00:43:41.000 Let's focus.

00:43:41.000 All right, locals.

00:43:42.000 All right, sensitive hearts.

00:43:44.000 I had such a mad time over there.

00:43:46.000 I wish...

00:43:47.000 So many things.

00:43:48.000 Just personal experiences I had in Washington, D.C. Let me know if you're watching.

00:43:53.000 If you met me over there, let me know in the Rumble chat or on Locals.

00:43:56.000 We're not on X or YouTube now.

00:43:57.000 We're just with you guys.

00:43:58.000 If you've not got Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium.

00:44:01.000 You get our additional content.

00:44:02.000 Let me show you a bit of additional content because you'll really like it, I think.

00:44:07.000 Alright, have a look at...

00:44:08.000 I've not watched this myself yet, so this is a real risk.

00:44:13.000 This is a real risky moment.

00:44:14.000 This is real fly-by-the-seat-your-pants stuff, this.

00:44:18.000 Because this is me.

00:44:18.000 First time I've ever done preaching.

00:44:20.000 Well, second in a way, because I went to a church with my friend Tullian in Dupur Island.

00:44:27.000 And Tullian is one, I hope you're watching, one of Billy Graham's grandkids.

00:44:31.000 And he, like, did you ever see that clip of me talking about how sort of participating in prostitution is degrading for both?

00:44:37.000 Parties, obviously.

00:44:38.000 Actually, but on that note, we should get in touch with Lily Phillips.

00:44:41.000 I've got a phone number for her assistant.

00:44:43.000 We should get her on, man. 0.99

00:44:44.000 I saw a picture of her the other day walking around with what I can only describe because it's the word sperm on her face. 1.00

00:44:49.000 And I felt like literally walking around with sperm on her face. 1.00

00:44:53.000 And I thought, this cannot be the gateway to the eternal love of Christ. 0.96

00:44:58.000 This must be a deviation from the path.

00:45:01.000 And I want to talk to Lily Phillips about that directly.

00:45:04.000 And why did I bring that up then?

00:45:08.000 Why did I bring that up?

00:45:09.000 Because I was preaching.

00:45:11.000 Yeah, well, when I was...

00:45:13.000 Oh, yeah.

00:45:13.000 Thank you.

00:45:14.000 And with Tullian, like, I talked about how, you know, whoever did that, you know, and both participants were really losing their connection to God.

00:45:22.000 Ah, I wanted to ask this.

00:45:24.000 I want to answer this response.

00:45:25.000 Excuse me.

00:45:25.000 I want to respond to this comment.

00:45:28.000 Almethom is asking about where Gareth is.

00:45:31.000 Russell, pay for Gareth to fly to the USA. We need Gareth.

00:45:34.000 Gareth prepares the shows, but he's stayed in the UK. Do you miss Gareth, then?

00:45:38.000 I miss Gareth.

00:45:39.000 I wonder if he's even watching this.

00:45:40.000 Gareth, let me know if you are.

00:45:41.000 You could text me.

00:45:42.000 And what do you want me to do?

00:45:43.000 Fly him over?

00:45:44.000 You fund it.

00:45:45.000 We've got a limited budget.

00:45:46.000 We've got a lot of expenses.

00:45:48.000 We've got to pay the people that do the tech.

00:45:49.000 There's been that snow.

00:45:51.000 Isaac's not even here.

00:45:52.000 Isaac's in Miami because it's snowing.

00:45:55.000 I mean, how would he get here?

00:45:56.000 I suppose he'd have to drive.

00:45:57.000 He's sort of kind of a big guy.

00:45:58.000 You'd think he'd be okay, but it'd be 12 hours.

00:46:02.000 It would take him 12 hours.

00:46:04.000 I got from Gainesville, imagine that, to where we are now, which is like, well, I don't tell you my exact address, but Florida.

00:46:14.000 I'm in the Redneck Riviera.

00:46:15.000 You know that about me.

00:46:16.000 I'm in the Redneck Riviera near Destiny Church where I attend.

00:46:22.000 Well, it was a difficult journey.

00:46:23.000 There was a lot of snow.

00:46:24.000 And it took hours and hours.

00:46:26.000 And curiously, I was being driven by a married couple.

00:46:29.000 And that was not even the first time that day that I was driven by a married couple.

00:46:33.000 You know, if you ever had that happen to you, you get into an Uber and it's not just one person.

00:46:37.000 Like there's an Uber duo.

00:46:40.000 Like a Starsky and Hutch Uber or a Batman and Robin Uber.

00:46:43.000 Anyway.

00:46:44.000 Look, what I'm saying to you is I've got expenses.

00:46:46.000 We've got expenses and we've got chaos to deal with and we've got snow in Florida.

00:46:50.000 There's a lot going on.

00:46:51.000 And I'm tired because I was in Washington, D.C. like yesterday, experiencing quite a lot of overstimulation.

00:46:58.000 Nevertheless, I still find time to preach, baby.

00:47:01.000 And here is a short blast of precisely that.

00:47:05.000 Russell, what has the Lord spoken to you lately?

00:47:08.000 Elch is. 0.51

00:47:09.000 The Lord has not stopped speaking to me lately.

00:47:13.000 It's quite extraordinary.

00:47:15.000 We're on our way to the ocean church where I've been...

00:47:19.000 Look at me there.

00:47:20.000 I mean, it's a completely different frame of mind.

00:47:21.000 I'm like someone who's mentally...

00:47:22.000 I'm going to the ocean church.

00:47:26.000 I've lost my connection to the almighty...

00:47:28.000 I'm so much more plugged into the Lord right now.

00:47:30.000 He's hit me hard with the Holy Spirit.

00:47:32.000 ...church where I've been asked to...

00:47:35.000 I actually don't even know what I've been asked to do.

00:47:37.000 Do you know, I'd forgotten how this had happened.

00:47:39.000 I was thinking, why is it that I am...

00:47:43.000 Here.

00:47:45.000 And then Michael said, you met Becky in Seaside.

00:47:49.000 I was like, yeah, yeah, I remember that.

00:47:52.000 And then you did a video.

00:47:54.000 That is because I'm with Holy Spirit now.

00:47:55.000 So if I meet people and they go, come talk at my church, I'll go, all right.

00:47:58.000 And I go with them.

00:47:59.000 That's why I'm getting driven around everywhere by married couples. 1.00

00:48:03.000 I was driven around yesterday by Norm and...

00:48:07.000 Sula? 0.62

00:48:07.000 And they did opera singing in the car. 0.62

00:48:09.000 You might think that sounds like a lie.

00:48:10.000 Well, let me tell you, it isn't a lie.

00:48:13.000 It happens to be the 100% exact truth of the matter.

00:48:16.000 I mean, let me show you.

00:48:18.000 Let me show you.

00:48:19.000 Well, I'll show you that in a minute.

00:48:20.000 I did a video where you spoke and you said, Pastor Michael, I said, yes, this did all happen.

00:48:25.000 And now I'm here.

00:48:28.000 These actions have consequences.

00:48:30.000 I've not been Christian very long.

00:48:32.000 Like, eight months.

00:48:35.000 But since April the 28th.

00:48:38.000 So you all know more about this than I do.

00:48:41.000 So, inadvertently, I've been worshipping false idols, the false idol of fame.

00:48:45.000 And if you do something like that, if someone's more famous than you, then you might feel inferior because you've invested.

00:48:52.000 It was Benedict Cumberbatch is who it was.

00:48:54.000 In England, it's like they've tried to make Jesus born. 0.97

00:48:57.000 Music's a bit gay, you lot. 1.00

00:48:58.000 I know that yous lot will have put it on. 0.99

00:49:00.000 A bit gay. 0.99

00:49:01.000 I don't mean gay in a bad way. 0.99

00:49:03.000 Hey, Trump. 0.85

00:49:06.000 Let me just...

00:49:07.000 This is me.

00:49:09.000 We've picked up with my Christian friends, Norm and Sula, who are married opera singers.

00:49:16.000 I don't even know them.

00:49:17.000 They're taking me to the airport.

00:49:18.000 There's snowstorms around D.C. And now they give you...

00:49:22.000 What's it called?

00:49:23.000 La Boheme?

00:49:24.000 Yeah, what particular aria or duet is it?

00:49:26.000 And who are the characters?

00:49:28.000 This is a suave fanchula.

00:49:29.000 A suave ventura.

00:49:30.000 We can't miss the exit, though.

00:49:31.000 Yeah, we can't miss the exit.

00:49:33.000 We still have four miles.

00:49:34.000 Love O.M. and don't miss the exit.

00:49:35.000 And what is happening in this bit?

00:49:37.000 We're falling in love with each other.

00:49:38.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:49:39.000 This is going to be great.

00:49:40.000 Do it.

00:49:40.000 Generally speaking.

00:49:42.000 He's so much more, like, self-possessed about this than you are, by the way. 1.00

00:49:45.000 You don't give a shit. 1.00

00:49:46.000 He's just going to do it. 1.00

00:49:47.000 You, you're turning it into a drama.

00:49:48.000 No, no, no.

00:49:50.000 What are you talking about?

00:49:51.000 She's ready to go.

00:49:52.000 Are you kidding?

00:49:53.000 Okay.

00:49:54.000 Fire away, then.

00:49:54.000 Who's first?

00:49:56.000 Oh, she's actually finding a backing track.

00:49:57.000 We've got to find the pitches.

00:49:58.000 Yeah, we've got to find the pitches.

00:49:59.000 You are pros, man.

00:50:01.000 We're doing the ending, right?

00:50:02.000 Yeah, we just do the end.

00:50:04.000 Amor, Amor.

00:50:05.000 I'm behind you.

00:50:06.000 I'm going to let my voices go.

00:50:07.000 You're actually doing the pitch.

00:50:08.000 You're finding the pitch using air.

00:50:09.000 I do.

00:50:10.000 I didn't know how much I didn't know.

00:50:11.000 And I'm also navigating.

00:50:13.000 Okay.

00:50:13.000 That's good.

00:50:30.000 I could do a lot more of that.

00:50:32.000 That was unbelievable.

00:50:34.000 We didn't miss the turn.

00:50:36.000 And we didn't miss the turn.

00:50:37.000 Three more miles, babe.

00:50:38.000 It's the best Uber I've ever had.

00:50:42.000 On my way to the airport.

00:50:43.000 Let's say that reality has, you know, become unusual.

00:50:46.000 Yes, many of you are posting in the locals' chat numerous apparent Nazi salutes from a variety of people at a variety of times.

00:50:55.000 Let's go back to AOC's...

00:51:01.000 We kind of covered that, didn't we?

00:51:03.000 There she is.

00:51:04.000 She's responded to be C. Kyle.

00:51:06.000 Oh, let's have a look at loads of Democrats C. Kyle in like there's no tomorrow. 0.99

00:51:12.000 No, yeah, that's it.

00:51:14.000 I think that really covers that.

00:51:16.000 If I stop, that goes up.

00:51:18.000 I think we've kind of covered that issue.

00:51:20.000 Elon Musk probably is a person who's...

00:51:23.000 Experience of reality is somewhat unusual, given that he's evidently and obviously a genius, and now a genius that wields incredible power.

00:51:32.000 I reckon if you add to that genius, highly adrenalized, and what's that other one that you experience in stress?

00:51:39.000 Cortisol.

00:51:40.000 Cortisol states that, gosh, he would be spasming all over.

00:51:43.000 And I do believe that the people that are outraged by it are genuine in their outrage.

00:51:48.000 But for me, that would ultimately be an indication that we have become...

00:51:52.000 Obsessed with superficiality and that we need to delve into real spirit and have a look at what the point of our cultural argument and conversation is.

00:52:05.000 Like if we're actually quarreling about the perceived meaning of a bodily gesture and how that tethers to ideology, then...

00:52:15.000 We've sort of lost touch with something powerful and significant because God is real and God is here in the present moment and that's what we're all being beckoned towards and called to.

00:52:24.000 The only symbol that matters in fact is the symbol of the cross that you require simultaneously the vertical connection of the divine and the mundial.

00:52:32.000 Your head may be in the clouds with Christ but you better make sure that your feet are on the ground and the horizontal connection to community.

00:52:38.000 We can create community beyond the basis of just hating one another and identifying with one tribe.

00:52:45.000 We can find our common bond through Christ Jesus by recognizing and acknowledging that in his eyes we are all on our knees before him.

00:52:54.000 Either side of you, your most hated enemies, those that have done their best to destroy you, kneel before him with you and we pray in thanks that we are saved by him, by his sacrifice and by his blood we are saved.

00:53:09.000 Is the ultimate reality.

00:53:10.000 Any secondary reality based on polarization, resistance and magnetic repulsion is a secondary expressive reality.

00:53:18.000 Lord, I know this to be true.

00:53:20.000 But that's just what I think.

00:53:21.000 Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat because I'm just as interested in what you think as what I think.

00:53:27.000 And together, I bet we can come up with something, particularly as I'm a man who can't even successfully...

00:53:31.000 Put a pen into its lid.

00:53:33.000 Oh, how my life has changed.

00:53:35.000 There was a time where my aim was amazing.

00:53:37.000 And just at that moment, someone posted a meme of Bill Gates in the Locals chat, literally with some vial with a syringe.

00:53:43.000 Oh, that's so crazy.

00:53:45.000 Those of you watching that on Locals got a real incredible multi-layered experience there.

00:53:49.000 Massie, pull it in from the Locals chat.

00:53:51.000 You're...

00:53:52.000 Your mind will be blown!

00:53:54.000 Just to show you that reality is weaving and working together in ways that are inconceivable, and through that we could find harmony or we could find disunity.

00:54:01.000 It's pretty clear that the culture still requires ongoing bifurcation and opposition in order to sustain itself, and we must transcend that farther.

00:54:09.000 We must transcend it now.

00:54:10.000 That's what I think.

00:54:11.000 I don't like the way my hair's all pushing together.

00:54:13.000 Right, we've got another subject to cover right now!

00:54:15.000 That's not C. Carl, by the way.

00:54:17.000 Or a crucifix.

00:54:18.000 I'm just letting you know that I've rolled my sleeves up on my jacket and the colours complement one another well.

00:54:23.000 Right.

00:54:24.000 Okay, guys.

00:54:24.000 Let's get into this.

00:54:27.000 Right.

00:54:27.000 J. Diva.

00:54:28.000 Ah!

00:54:28.000 I love this.

00:54:29.000 All right.

00:54:30.000 I love this.

00:54:32.000 Do you know about the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C.? I was a happy man when I called it my home.

00:54:38.000 For when I was in D.C. for the inauguration, sort of for the inauguration, I didn't quite get in.

00:54:43.000 It's like, you know when you see images of sperms rushing towards an ovum? 0.53

00:54:47.000 Like, you know, some of them, it all starts off with so many sperms. 1.00

00:54:49.000 But which sperm will ultimately penetrate the ovum?

00:54:53.000 And what reality will you live, dependent on that?

00:54:55.000 Well, I never made it into the oval or ovum office.

00:54:58.000 I was one of the sperms that got...

00:55:01.000 Didn't make it quite as far as even Theo Vaughn and Joe Rogan.

00:55:04.000 I didn't get to be in a fold-out chair near the Paul Brothers.

00:55:06.000 I was actually watching it on Rumble with, actually, I think some recently released hostages, families, and Adam Bowler, the special presidential envoy.

00:55:17.000 You can watch that show, by the way, on Rumble.

00:55:20.000 That's already up.

00:55:21.000 Fantastic conversation.

00:55:22.000 Stick the link out, guys.

00:55:23.000 That was amazing.

00:55:24.000 It was an amazing conversation.

00:55:25.000 Fascinating.

00:55:26.000 Fascinating.

00:55:27.000 Anyway.

00:55:28.000 The significance of my residency at the Bible Museum is simply this, that I had scripture around me while I was thinking about political power.

00:55:36.000 You might think, Russell, stop going on about Christianity!

00:55:40.000 Or if you're American, Russell, keep talking about Christianity! 0.98

00:55:44.000 But whichever one of those camps you're in, you'll have to acknowledge that when a president is sworn in, they're sworn in on a...

00:55:51.000 Is it a secular image?

00:55:53.000 Are they sworn in on the Communist Manifesto?

00:55:56.000 Are they sworn in on a photograph of Noam Chomsky?

00:56:00.000 What are they sworn in on?

00:56:01.000 The Bible.

00:56:02.000 And what's the point of that?

00:56:03.000 To declare that there is some authority behind their power and that power is ultimately God's power, right?

00:56:08.000 That's the meaning of the symbol.

00:56:09.000 It's just a tradition at this point.

00:56:11.000 It has no meaning.

00:56:13.000 Okay, well then nothing has any meaning, does it?

00:56:15.000 Then you can stop worrying about the Sieg Heil and you can stop worrying about everything.

00:56:18.000 There must be a reason that J.D. Vance puts his hand on the Bible and Donald Trump doesn't quite put his hand on the Bible.

00:56:27.000 Does that mean something or does it mean nothing?

00:56:30.000 Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that and let's examine it.

00:56:34.000 Simultaneously, let us consider, what does it mean when Bishop Budd says that Donald Trump must care for trans children in the recent wake of this revelation, which also, I say revelation, but it was available in Genesis, God created man, God created woman.

00:56:52.000 And how do we reconcile that?

00:56:54.000 With Christ's edict, that we must love one another and we must love the vulnerable.

00:56:59.000 How do we do it as Christians?

00:57:00.000 Let me know in the comments and chat.

00:57:02.000 How do we do it as not Christians? 0.99

00:57:03.000 Because wherever you are, you want to be loving, don't you?

00:57:05.000 You must never let truth outrun love, I learned recently.

00:57:09.000 What do you think about that?

00:57:11.000 Like, love is too soft without truth, but truth is too hard without love.

00:57:16.000 We can work this out together, can't we?

00:57:17.000 We're intelligent people.

00:57:19.000 We're children of God.

00:57:20.000 Here's J.D. Vance being sworn in with his hand on the Bible.

00:57:23.000 I swear on the Bible, mister!

00:57:25.000 I swear on the Bible!

00:57:27.000 I'll be the best vice president you ever did have!

00:57:30.000 You can't just swear on, like, you can't swear on Playboy.

00:57:33.000 You can't swear on Hustler.

00:57:35.000 You can't swear on J.D. Salinger.

00:57:37.000 You can't, in this nation, swear on the Koran.

00:57:40.000 What?

00:57:40.000 What does it mean?

00:57:41.000 And what does it not mean?

00:57:46.000 Please raise your right hand and repeat after me.

00:57:50.000 Don't raise it that high and raise it on this angle, not that angle.

00:57:54.000 Okay?

00:57:54.000 Raise your hand, but like that.

00:57:56.000 Not like that, like that.

00:57:58.000 It's amazing, isn't it?

00:57:59.000 Like, think about, like, if you're a basketball player, it's like, Hell Hitler, I love God! 0.96

00:58:03.000 Hell Hitler, I love God! 0.97

00:58:06.000 And repeat after me.

00:58:10.000 I, James David Vance, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same.

00:58:39.000 That I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion.

00:58:51.000 Does this ever get referred back to, though?

00:58:53.000 Do they ever refer back to it when they're in office and go, hey, you said there was never going to be any mental reservation.

00:58:59.000 You've got a mental reservation!

00:59:01.000 That Bible you swore on, wait a minute! 0.83

00:59:07.000 That Bible you swore on, it says here that you actually have to love one another as you love yourself.

00:59:13.000 Now, J.D. Vance is a serious man about the Lord.

00:59:15.000 I happen to know that.

00:59:17.000 And Trump, I've not seen it yet, because even though I was at that, I wasn't at the inauguration.

00:59:23.000 I was one of the sperms that didn't make it fully up the gully, if that's the right phrase. 0.52

00:59:27.000 Now, like, Trump, I've not seen it yet because I was doing other things.

00:59:33.000 I was at a Bible museum.

00:59:34.000 There's a lot going on.

00:59:34.000 I was with war veterans, unbelievable war veterans, like Shiro, Shiloh, and like Jason, and like Oz, and like Amos, Daniel.

00:59:44.000 Man, these people got some good names.

00:59:46.000 Anyway, so I was distracted.

00:59:47.000 But like...

00:59:48.000 I don't even know yet how close to the Bible Trump got.

00:59:54.000 And that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I'm about to enter.

01:00:06.000 So help me God.

01:00:08.000 Congratulations, Mr. Vice President.

01:00:14.000 Who's that blonde lady? 1.00

01:00:15.000 She's happy about it.

01:00:16.000 Who's that someone that's related to him?

01:00:17.000 The blonde lady in the red coat.

01:00:19.000 After this, we'll...

01:00:20.000 Oh, just to go to a look.

01:00:22.000 We make this content in conjunction with our partners.

01:00:26.000 Whose ad is it now, guys?

01:00:27.000 Do you know?

01:00:30.000 Oh, yeah, Rough Greens.

01:00:31.000 These are really good.

01:00:31.000 Do you know that my dogs love Rough Greens?

01:00:35.000 I've got two dogs.

01:00:36.000 I've got Bear, my beloved German Shepherd, who has...

01:00:41.000 Degenerative myopathy.

01:00:42.000 Breaks my heart.

01:00:43.000 But this is how the Lord made him.

01:00:45.000 And he'll be okay.

01:00:46.000 And we've got a little dachshund. 1.00

01:00:48.000 Pain in the arse. 0.99

01:00:49.000 I've not fully bonded with it yet. 0.99

01:00:50.000 Anyway, these guys eat rough greens.

01:00:52.000 Is this rough greens for the dogs?

01:00:53.000 Yeah, rough, rough, rough. 0.50

01:00:56.000 Supplements the dog.

01:00:56.000 The dog's not enough.

01:00:59.000 Let's supplement it.

01:01:00.000 Oh, people took that Melania's hat, man. 0.85

01:01:02.000 Yeah, that hat was...

01:01:03.000 Pretty interesting.

01:01:04.000 Okay, let's have a quick look at this message from our partners.

01:01:06.000 New Year's Eve is on its way.

01:01:08.000 We're all making resolutions and looking for new solutions.

01:01:11.000 But what about our pets?

01:01:12.000 And what about rough greens?

01:01:14.000 Naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black is on a mission to provide better nutrition for cats and dogs.

01:01:19.000 Because truthfully, it's not what you are feeding your pet.

01:01:23.000 It's what you're not.

01:01:24.000 What are you not feeding your pet?

01:01:26.000 Which is why he created Rough Greens and Meow Greens in the first place.

01:01:30.000 Bring their dead food back to life with live vitamins and minerals and probiotics, enzymes, omega oils, antioxidants and so much more.

01:01:40.000 All in their tasty formula your dog or cat will love.

01:02:14.000 My little Coco, a Dachshund, my beautiful bear, a German Shepherd.

01:02:18.000 Hmm, both German dogs.

01:02:19.000 What does it mean?

01:02:20.000 What does it all mean?

01:02:21.000 I give them rough greens.

01:02:23.000 And going into the new year, I'm going to be giving them rough greens and getting a great deal from rough greens.

01:02:29.000 The greens may be rough, but the deal ain't.

01:02:32.000 Two German dogs.

01:02:34.000 That's got to be...

01:02:35.000 I mean, where's the hand at that point?

01:02:37.000 All right, you guys, let's get to the rub of this matter.

01:02:45.000 Hey, if you do have a pair, I really sincerely recommend Rough Greens.

01:02:48.000 They're really, really, really good.

01:02:51.000 Jude cycle ready, Nazi. 0.87

01:02:52.000 Yep, see, that's how they're rolling in the old locals chat.

01:02:55.000 Okay, let's get back to this and see if we can better understand the significance and importance of swearing in on the Bible.

01:03:03.000 Do we have Trump doing it?

01:03:06.000 Is it in the rest of the clip?

01:03:07.000 Do we have Trump doing it?

01:03:13.000 Please raise your right hand and repeat after me I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States and will,

01:03:33.000 to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.

01:03:45.000 Help me God.

01:03:46.000 So help me God.

01:03:47.000 Congratulations, Christopher.

01:03:48.000 Who's the lady next to Biden? 1.00

01:03:57.000 Her hair's too good to be that close to Biden.

01:04:00.000 Don't put someone that's female with that good of quality hair next to Biden.

01:04:06.000 He'll sniff his way back to the White House!

01:04:12.000 No wonder the deer hunter's sinuses were so constantly at work.

01:04:16.000 What chance did he have?

01:04:18.000 What chance did he have not to turn his nostrils into a kind of cocaine canal with such genes as those?

01:04:27.000 Okay, so I didn't see that these hand weren't on it, but I guess there's footage elsewhere.

01:04:31.000 Someone in the comments over there said, look up JFK hand on the Bible.

01:04:36.000 Oh, man, I would be so into seeing that.

01:04:38.000 I would be into seeing that.

01:04:40.000 He swore in the family Bible.

01:04:41.000 Yeah, I heard that.

01:04:42.000 Well, look, isn't that interesting?

01:04:43.000 Isn't it interesting that in a secular age, in secular times, when we consider ourselves to have grown beyond the superstition of religion, even though it seems pretty apparent and obvious to me that the secular age is coming to an end along with materialism and this new expression of this peculiar, oddly cataclysmic...

01:05:03.000 Glamorous and maddening time appears to be a Christian revival. 1.00

01:05:09.000 I suppose it's as if there is some deep and powerful truth embedded in the book of the Bible that we simply can't move beyond.

01:05:17.000 Many comments have pointed out that it's not sort of constitutionally necessary or relevant to swear on the Bible.

01:05:23.000 I believe that Washington did swear on a Bible to inaugure his own presidency.

01:05:29.000 Washington did.

01:05:31.000 And when they swore Lyndon B. Johnson in after the tragic and potentially state-inspired and acted death of JFK... Lyndon Johnson was sworn in on a plane using a particular Catholic epistle of JFKs that was presumed to be on Air Force One as part of his tragic legacy.

01:05:52.000 He'd left it there because RFK was a regular attendee of mass.

01:05:57.000 I learned this while I was at the Bible Museum, actually, from Carlos, the man who runs it.

01:06:02.000 I learned a load of stuff there.

01:06:03.000 I mean, that's, I suppose, what a Bible Museum's going to do. 1.00

01:06:06.000 Also learned and intuited and understood is that political power, unless divinely inspired, will become its opposite.

01:06:15.000 And the fact that JD Vance seems to sincerely and deliberately be sworn in on a Bible and Trump hovers above a Bible can't be definitively said to have a particular meaning any more than we can...

01:06:28.000 Attribute meaning to Elon Musk's bodily spasms and tics.

01:06:34.000 It would be unfair to do that, I think.

01:06:37.000 But what I think we can see, intuit and determine from the ongoing necessity of some...

01:06:44.000 Official authority underneath, whether contacting or not, human political power is that somewhere in us we know that we are broken and fallen.

01:06:54.000 And whether or not you are very, very pro-AOC, Kamala and Biden, or very, very pro-J.D. Vance, Trump, or maybe it's cultural figures that you align with like Jake Paul or Logan Paul or, Lord, I ask you, me, ultimately...

01:07:10.000 We are passing patterns and temporal players as Shakespeare had it upon the stage that strut and fret and we continually need recourse to something eternal and outside of time.

01:07:24.000 The materialist and atheist philosopher Wittgenstein said, if you consider eternity to be...

01:07:31.000 Not an infinite temporal duration, but the quality of timelessness.

01:07:35.000 Then eternity belongs to he that lives in the present. 0.50

01:07:38.000 And it's in the present that you will find God.

01:07:40.000 As a Christian, it's where I find Christ Jesus in this moment now.

01:07:44.000 If you do that, then you will have a different understanding, I believe, of empire, power, politics, manipulation, and tribe.

01:07:52.000 And you may be able to transcend something even as contentious and apparently conflict-strewn as American politics.

01:08:00.000 You will find his grace there.

01:08:02.000 You will see that whilst there may be a table laying amidst your enemies, when it comes to the moment of rapture, And the judgment that may precede it or be embedded in it, we are all on our knees.

01:08:16.000 We are all on our knees.

01:08:18.000 That our differences are ultimately trivial.

01:08:20.000 And perhaps with the skies finally illuminating with new constellations, with orbs and spheres unknowable everywhere, perhaps something glorious is upon us.

01:08:31.000 Perhaps this is a new time for us to consider.

01:08:34.000 New alliances.

01:08:35.000 New ideologies.

01:08:37.000 Being born new in him.

01:08:40.000 For surely their mind must be renewed moment to moment.

01:08:43.000 But that's not what I think.

01:08:44.000 That's actually what...

01:08:46.000 St. Paul thinks in the book of Romans.

01:08:48.000 But also I think it, because I'm trying my best to think his thoughts.

01:08:51.000 Let me know what you think.

01:08:52.000 Let me know what you think.

01:08:54.000 Although in Isaiah it will tell you that you can't think his thoughts and why would we try to.

01:08:58.000 But let me know what you think, because I care about you.

01:09:02.000 Also, so let me know in the comments and chat, if you're watching this anywhere other than Rumble, remember our home is on Rumble.

01:09:08.000 Oh man, I've got to do like 60 minutes.

01:09:11.000 There's so much more to say.

01:09:12.000 There's so much more to say.

01:09:14.000 Let me just show you.

01:09:15.000 I'm going to do more.

01:09:16.000 I'm going to have to do at least one more, don't I, to make sense of things.

01:09:18.000 I'll do the pardons and then we'll wrap this up.

01:09:20.000 But before the pardons, have a look at some of the fantastic new content you can get by becoming a member of our community on Rumble Premium.

01:09:29.000 If you don't know who Eddie Gallagher is, is this a trailer that explains who Eddie Gallagher is?

01:09:33.000 It's just a bit.

01:09:35.000 Okay.

01:09:35.000 Eddie Gallagher is a Navy SEAL that, while on tour in Iraq, Was in charge of some ISIS members and one of them died.

01:09:44.000 He was accused of murdering that ISIS member.

01:09:46.000 He was put on a kind of military tribunal and held in a military prison before being not pardoned by Trump.

01:09:51.000 I don't think Trump intervened and he won his trial because someone else confessed to doing that murder.

01:09:55.000 But through his case we can understand a lot of things.

01:09:57.000 Like what is the duty of a warrior and what do we expect of warriors?

01:10:01.000 Do we expect warriors to kill?

01:10:04.000 I suppose we sort of do, don't we?

01:10:06.000 Otherwise, why have them?

01:10:07.000 The existence of a warrior means the necessity of killing.

01:10:11.000 Anyway, I had a brilliant conversation with him.

01:10:13.000 Here's a bit of it.

01:10:14.000 You can get this if you become a member of Locals.

01:10:17.000 Of course, you lot over there, True Chimera, Kazo, you get this stuff all the time.

01:10:21.000 But if you're on Rumble Premium, not only do you get free stuff, you get stuff like this as well.

01:10:25.000 Eddie Gallagher is a Navy SEAL that was detained in a military prison after the death in custody of a member of ISIS that he was charged with the care of.

01:10:37.000 I don't know how you describe it when it's an ISIS member.

01:10:39.000 Anyway, the ISIS prisoner of war died and Eddie Gallagher was vilified and ultimately imprisoned without trial, but ultimately out trial was vindicated.

01:10:50.000 The thing is, as they They weaponized, in my situation, they weaponized the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which is the military justice system against me.

01:11:00.000 Once the government targets you, there is no getting out of that.

01:11:05.000 They will go at any lengths to make you look the way they want to.

01:11:09.000 They will create a narrative.

01:11:11.000 They have the media on their side.

01:11:12.000 A person that can be revered and lionized and celebrated and decorated, I see the amount of medals and ribbons there on you and the cover of your book.

01:11:21.000 When it's convenient, you're able to go based on gossip and rumor.

01:11:27.000 And that's the bit I recognize.

01:11:29.000 Because while it's a million miles away in so many ways...

01:11:33.000 I'm a famous movie star.

01:11:35.000 What are you supposed to do? 1.00

01:11:36.000 I'm meant to go around and have sex with loads of women. 1.00

01:11:38.000 What were you doing? 1.00

01:11:38.000 I was going around having sex with loads of women. 1.00

01:11:40.000 Is there something about that that's morally wrong? 0.84

01:11:43.000 Yes.

01:11:44.000 Yes, there is.

01:11:44.000 I believe everyone should own a firearm if they want to.

01:11:48.000 This is America.

01:11:49.000 They have the Second Amendment for that reason.

01:11:52.000 But I say if you are going to own a firearm, that is going to be one of the biggest responsibilities that you have.

01:11:58.000 Because this is meant to do one thing. 0.97

01:12:01.000 To kill. 0.99

01:12:06.000 How's that feel? 0.99

01:12:07.000 Yeah, comfortable.

01:12:08.000 Yeah.

01:12:12.000 What do you think?

01:12:18.000 I didn't see that trailer, but I figure it's pretty good because I love Eddie and stuff.

01:12:23.000 All right, listen, let's cover this part of stuff.

01:12:25.000 Do you mind closing those doors for me because I didn't have time to do it because I was just doing a wee.

01:12:28.000 Thanks, Dave.

01:12:29.000 Thank you so much, guys.

01:12:31.000 Alright, I just want to tell you some stuff about the pardons, because this is also a pretty important spiritual concept.

01:12:35.000 Wouldn't you believe, blessed old bird?

01:12:37.000 Wouldn't you agree?

01:12:38.000 Roxy Ann?

01:12:39.000 Let me know what you think about these pardons.

01:12:41.000 I'm going to get into it.

01:12:42.000 Seeing Biden in sexy lingerie is going to give me ulcers, says True Chimera.

01:12:47.000 I mean, I hope that's a hypothetical, because...

01:12:50.000 I just wouldn't like to ever see such a thing.

01:12:52.000 Okay.

01:12:53.000 Now, we did have the option of looking at some Keir Starmer stuff.

01:12:56.000 He's insincere.

01:12:57.000 Congratulations to Donald Trump.

01:12:58.000 But I think we should cover the preemptive pardon.

01:13:02.000 CNN commentator boldly declares that Trump is pardoning J6s. 1.00

01:13:06.000 And, yeah, the Biden, pardon, pardon, pardon.

01:13:09.000 Okay.

01:13:10.000 So, what is that like?

01:13:15.000 A pardon is a very strange idea, isn't it?

01:13:19.000 A pardon.

01:13:20.000 Because it's about forgiveness and it's about redemption, which is in itself obviously a spiritual concept.

01:13:25.000 A pardon means even though we know you've done this, you are forgiven.

01:13:29.000 That's a pardon.

01:13:30.000 A preemptive pardon.

01:13:31.000 Wow.

01:13:32.000 Even though we know you haven't done this...

01:13:35.000 We just want to make sure that if you were ever accused of doing this, you would be pardoned.

01:13:40.000 That's what's extraordinary about many of the pardons granted by the Biden administration.

01:13:45.000 Fauci pardoned.

01:13:46.000 A string of Bidens pardoned.

01:13:48.000 Endless Bidens off into the future.

01:13:50.000 Anyone that might be a Biden or could be a Biden.

01:13:52.000 Did you see that meme of Barron Trump leaning over, apparently, to Joe Biden?

01:13:57.000 Although community notes suggested he might have been leaning over to Kamala Harris.

01:14:01.000 And some said, like, what's he saying?

01:14:03.000 What's Barron Trump saying to Joe Biden?

01:14:05.000 You forgot to pardon yourself.

01:14:07.000 But it seemed to me that Joe Biden pardoned anyone, including many people that were not alleged even to have done anything wrong, like Anthony Fauci, who still isn't under any serious investigation, as best as I can understand, for his numerous apparently illegal actions during the pandemic period.

01:14:22.000 I mean arbitrary advice.

01:14:23.000 I mean his financial involvement with groups like DARS, DARPA. I mean his denial of the Wuhan lab leak theory of origin.

01:14:31.000 His condemnation of men like Jay Bhattacharya.

01:14:34.000 And my Makari people who are new now, thankfully, Lord, in power. 1.00

01:14:39.000 I'm interested in the pardons of the family members.

01:14:41.000 I'm interested in preemptive pardons.

01:14:43.000 Biden pardoned sexual predators.

01:14:46.000 I mean, Lord, what a world we live in.

01:14:49.000 What a world we live in.

01:14:51.000 So whose pardons are good and whose pardons are bad?

01:14:55.000 And what is the concept of a pardon, actually?

01:14:58.000 And who has the power and authority other than God?

01:15:01.000 No one.

01:15:01.000 To grant a pardon.

01:15:04.000 To say, even though you've done that, even though you are broken and a wreck, we forgive you.

01:15:09.000 Even the concept of a pardon shows that we need that on some level.

01:15:14.000 And it also indicates that the Biden administration, they'll say, they'll of course say, We've given all these pardons to people because we believe that Trump, once in office, will use the power of the presidency to condemn innocent people like the J6 committee, who were doing nothing wrong at all, but Trump will come after them, so we're going to have to necessarily give them pre-emptive pardons.

01:15:35.000 That's what they'll say.

01:15:36.000 But what it looks a lot more like is that the Jan 6th committee and matters around the pandemic were, in fact, orchestrated actions used to legitimize citizen control and the advance of the interests of the elite, of various elites, whether those are financial interests or interests of dominion.

01:15:52.000 And maybe there's an obvious intersection between those two ideas.

01:15:54.000 An obvious example of profiteering would be the benefits that it afforded the pharmaceutical industry and their capacity for state regulation is similarly obvious.

01:16:03.000 But perhaps it's part of a broader globalist, inverted commas, power across the world and accrue it in limited institutions accessible by limited individuals and able to bypass the normal democratic channels that suggest and insist in fact that power remains in the hands of the people and that the will of the people can influence power.

01:16:30.000 Maybe these pardons have negated that entire process.

01:16:34.000 Let's have a look at how CNN see it, though.

01:16:37.000 Yeah, I think we should separate the pardons that are happening today.

01:16:43.000 So the reason why Joe Biden pardoned...

01:16:46.000 Let's separate these pardons.

01:16:48.000 I'm going to put some pardons over there in what I call good pardons.

01:16:53.000 And over there, Trump pardons, I mean bad pardons, although actually the Trump pardons and the bad pardons are the same category, because that's just how I see reality.

01:17:02.000 And pardon the January 6th committee and other, Millie and Fauci, is because Donald Trump, you're right, he ran and people elected him.

01:17:12.000 He said he was going to seek retribution.

01:17:14.000 Now, retribution is not a part of the Constitution.

01:17:16.000 There's no retribution in Constitution, except for the last three letters, I-O-N. That's in there in both cases. 0.77

01:17:21.000 But you can't use retribution.

01:17:23.000 The thing that absolutely knackered my consciousness, if I may say, was when I saw various legacy media outlets condemning Trump when he left office in 2020, saying, if Trump were to...

01:17:41.000 Actually pardon Don Jr. and members of his family and other acolytes of the Trump administration preemptively, that would be tantamount to an admission of guilt.

01:17:52.000 So they better be saying it now that Biden has preemptively, through pardons, seemingly acknowledged the potential for wrongdoing of the Jan 6 Committee, Fauci, and members of the Biden family.

01:18:05.000 Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.

01:18:07.000 They can't keep flexing and and inverting their positions unless they have no principles Unless they have no principles and right so we we put those in place.

01:18:21.000 I I think it's unfortunate that he pardoned his family today.

01:18:25.000 I am a Democrat.

01:18:26.000 I think that it does cloud what he did.

01:18:29.000 So I think you should bifurcate those two.

01:18:31.000 And then I think the pardons for January 6th are completely different.

01:18:35.000 The reason why today feels so...

01:18:38.000 It's pretty funny that someone's like, Playing a trumpet under that.

01:18:42.000 Like, as if that was the point of that person doing that.

01:18:45.000 And while this lady tells you her particular perspectives on pardons and which pardons are good and which ones are bad...

01:18:51.000 I'm gonna just play this trombone.

01:18:55.000 Don't get carried away about this gesture, by the way.

01:18:58.000 This is a man playing a trombone.

01:19:02.000 This is a man playing a trombone a bit lower down.

01:19:06.000 This is Lily Phillips playing a trombone.

01:19:07.000 Listen!

01:19:08.000 She's a child of God! 0.85

01:19:10.000 Come back, Lily.

01:19:11.000 Come back, Lily.

01:19:13.000 I know what it's like.

01:19:14.000 I know what it's like.

01:19:15.000 Okay, let's get back to these pardons.

01:19:17.000 We all need one.

01:19:18.000 Today feels so abnormal is because of what happened last year, or four years ago, on January 6th.

01:19:24.000 When I said come back, Lily, that was not the suggestion that you, you know, offer the other cheek, as it were.

01:19:29.000 Come back.

01:19:30.000 It's, uh, it was a, I'm saying...

01:19:32.000 Join us.

01:19:33.000 Something that none of us in our lifetime have ever seen.

01:19:36.000 So on your day one, when you talked about...

01:19:39.000 In the locals chat, Rusty Trombone.

01:19:41.000 I take that nickname.

01:19:42.000 I take that nickname.

01:19:43.000 I've gone over this jacket.

01:19:44.000 I don't want it on no more.

01:19:45.000 I'm just sick and tired of how it looks.

01:19:47.000 I couldn't take another second of it.

01:19:51.000 There you go.

01:19:52.000 Like this now.

01:19:53.000 This is how I want to look.

01:19:54.000 It's not quite.

01:19:55.000 I need a haircut.

01:19:55.000 Is there a barber in the house?

01:19:57.000 Why is there no barber?

01:19:58.000 Lily just wants publicity, says Trish McLeod. 1.00

01:20:03.000 I think that's part of it, mate.

01:20:06.000 Look, I've got two daughters.

01:20:09.000 And that Lena Phipps, she's just a... 1.00

01:20:11.000 Obviously, I was a very, very, very, very promiscuous person.

01:20:17.000 You're digging a hole.

01:20:18.000 I'm not digging a hole.

01:20:19.000 There is no hole.

01:20:20.000 There is a heavenly...

01:20:20.000 Oh, that was a problem.

01:20:22.000 You better get by her.

01:20:23.000 I was digging a hole.

01:20:24.000 I was digging a sky hole with a sea Kyle.

01:20:27.000 Don't you dare dig a sky hole with a sea, Kyle!

01:20:30.000 Don't you dare dig a sky hole with a sea, Kyle!

01:20:33.000 Okay, let's get back to this.

01:20:35.000 Come on, concentrate.

01:20:35.000 It's about, not you, sure, Michael, but Donald Trump talks about lowering the cost of eggs.

01:20:39.000 What you do is you let people out who undermined our Constitution.

01:20:43.000 Did he just say about lowering the cost of eggs?

01:20:46.000 How did we get to that?

01:20:48.000 What?

01:20:50.000 That was actually more tangible.

01:20:52.000 Some of you might watch this and go, Russell Brand's presentational style is somewhat discursive, as if he's continually corrooming around a labyrinth in his own mind, picking up treasures and anomalies as he goes.

01:21:04.000 You might think that.

01:21:05.000 You might be thinking that in your mind right now.

01:21:07.000 That's my job.

01:21:08.000 That's not their job.

01:21:09.000 Over on whatever that was on CNN. Well, like, these pardons are over here preemptively.

01:21:13.000 We've got to separate this.

01:21:14.000 Unfortunately, they separated the Biden family.

01:21:16.000 What are we going to do about the price of eggs?

01:21:18.000 What?

01:21:20.000 That's not your job!

01:21:22.000 Who undermined our constitution, who undermined the election, who undermined people who felt like their life was not better under Donald Trump in 2020. They felt like they wanted a different four years and that's why they elected Joe Biden.

01:21:37.000 So I want to put those pardons in separate buckets and I think we...

01:21:40.000 Oh right, is that what she's talking about eggs?

01:21:42.000 Like you put some eggs in one bucket and some eggs in another bucket.

01:21:45.000 Put something soft in there because, you know, eggs, they have to be handled with care.

01:21:50.000 Like opinions.

01:21:50.000 And I think we should be talking about them differently because they are not all...

01:21:54.000 All pardons are not created equal, in my opinion.

01:21:57.000 Have a drink of water also, is what I would say.

01:22:00.000 Okay, what do I think about that?

01:22:05.000 Only God can forgive you!

01:22:09.000 I'm in recovery, of course, you know.

01:22:11.000 So in recovery, there's some things that are required.

01:22:13.000 Absolute transparency, authenticity, and yielding to authority.

01:22:17.000 Total confession.

01:22:18.000 So if you feel like you've done something wrong, and I'm always doing something wrong, I have to confess it.

01:22:24.000 You can confess it to another human being, but baked into the philosophy of the 12 steps by which I live a practical part of my own spiritual life, it says you admit to yourself, to God, And to another human being, the exact nature of your wrongs.

01:22:38.000 So, for example, if you've treated people bad, you go, this is how I treated people bad.

01:22:42.000 I made these mistakes.

01:22:42.000 And the person goes, okay, I hear you.

01:22:45.000 And God hears you as well.

01:22:46.000 They might not explicitly say that, but that's almost happening in the process.

01:22:49.000 It's baked into the process.

01:22:50.000 A sort of a presidential pardon is an acknowledgement that what we have given a president is a godlike power, isn't it?

01:22:56.000 They've got the power to start wars, they've got the power to end wars.

01:22:59.000 You know, ideally with constitutional or congressional support or whatever the vernacular of your...

01:23:06.000 Apparent democracy is.

01:23:07.000 But really, where is the power coming from?

01:23:09.000 Well, you could say the power is coming from the people because they have a mandate because they were elected.

01:23:13.000 That's people power. 0.98

01:23:14.000 But where is the power?

01:23:15.000 Where is the supreme authority actually coming from?

01:23:18.000 If you're going to say someone is guilty or innocent, if you're going to say someone is going to live or die, that power has got to come from, I would say, and I would say...

01:23:28.000 I would say an irrefutable absolute force.

01:23:32.000 It can't be coming from these group of people have got a bigger gun or a bigger tribe or a bigger gang.

01:23:38.000 It has to be that individual.

01:23:41.000 That's why a judge wears an outfit. 1.00

01:23:43.000 That's why a pope wears an outfit.

01:23:45.000 That's why a policeman wears an outfit, is to remind you and to remind them that their authority comes from, inverted commas, somewhere else.

01:23:54.000 else.

01:23:54.000 When you're dealing with presidents and presidential pardons, it has to be, doesn't it, that they are a conduit for godly power in the same way that a king or queen in a European nation like the one that I was born in has to include an anointing from God.

01:24:10.000 And in fact, even with modern coronations, as I understand, the moment that the oil is placed on the sovereign's brow is still clandestine and the TV cameras aren't allowed to film it.

01:24:21.000 Let me know in the comments and chat if I'm right about that.

01:24:23.000 That's because it's sacred and holy and not fit for humans to judge.

01:24:28.000 When you give a president the power to pardon, what you're saying is you have God-like powers.

01:24:33.000 So you can look at it this way.

01:24:35.000 Do you believe that Biden preemptively pardoned his family members and Fauci in the January 6th committee because Trump is so evil that he knew that Trump would come into office and then use the power, as the CNN commentator just said, for retribution, but not divine retribution, profane retribution?

01:24:57.000 Or do you think that he knew that there was a chance that now that a new administration had access to bureaucratic, evidential proof that there was wrongdoing, that there would likely be consequences?

01:25:11.000 Even as I'm saying it, the latter sounds more likely, doesn't it?

01:25:15.000 So, of course, a human pardon...

01:25:19.000 We'll be biased or arbitrary, but the concept of a pardon is holy, and it is from these colliding concepts that the dichotomy emerges and the necessity to surrender to the absolute power of God.

01:25:31.000 May you find God now.

01:25:33.000 May you find God now.

01:25:35.000 But that's just what I think.

01:25:36.000 Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and chat.

01:25:39.000 It must be more interesting than what I think.

01:25:41.000 If you're watching this on Facebook, congratulations, because you can put anything on Facebook now.

01:25:45.000 Mark Zuckerberg has given us, when I say us, I have received assurances that content on Facebook will now reach a maximal community.

01:25:54.000 That's why I'm happy to have you back, members on Meta.

01:25:57.000 If you're watching us on X, hey, thanks for watching us on X. If you're watching us on YouTube...

01:26:02.000 Well done for finding us that, frankly.

01:26:04.000 We're shadow banned in every conceivable direction.

01:26:07.000 And if you're watching us on Rumble, thank you, because you're helping us to grow the community that supports us both financially but also morally through the issue of free speech, which is pretty significant and important.

01:26:18.000 OK, well, listen, we've got some great shows coming up in the latter part of this week.

01:26:21.000 There's all the additional Rumble Premium.

01:26:24.000 Rumble Premium, excuse me, I had that drink in my mind.

01:26:27.000 Rumble, not literally, I don't drink.

01:26:28.000 Rumble Premium.

01:26:30.000 And that would have been drinking my brain rather than mine.

01:26:32.000 I wouldn't have used the metaphysic.

01:26:34.000 Rumble Premium, you get additional content there.

01:26:36.000 And also later this week, I'm going to be doing my new show, Oracle.

01:26:40.000 Are you going to love this?

01:26:42.000 I've got, like, Neil Oliver, who I love, the Coast Guy on X, and Lara Logan, a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant journalist, together talking about the issues of the inauguration.

01:26:53.000 That's tomorrow's show, huh?

01:26:54.000 You're going to love that.

01:26:55.000 It's going to be fantastic.

01:26:56.000 Because Lara Logan, she's the real deal.

01:26:59.000 And by the way, if any of you want to come and see me at Mar-a-Lago on February the 18th, you can just post a link in the chats on Locals and Rumble for that, please, so that they can get tickets if they want them.

01:27:10.000 And let's ask Mar-a-Lago if we can get, like, I don't know, 10 free ones to give away as a competition, and then we'll do that.

01:27:17.000 We'll put that into tomorrow's show and I'll tape it after this.

01:27:20.000 All right, you lot.

01:27:21.000 Now I'm trying to operate on too many levels simultaneously, even for me.

01:27:24.000 So thanks very much for joining us and we will see you tomorrow.

01:27:27.000 Not for more of the same, but for more of the different.

01:27:30.000 Until then, if you can, Lord, Lord, please stay free.
