Transcript

00:00:00.000 I'm going to go ahead and do that.
00:01:05.000 In this video, you're going to see the future.
00:01:17.000 Hello there, you Awakening Wonders.
00:01:18.000 Thanks for joining me for a very special edition of Stay Free with Russell Brand.
00:01:22.000 We are at Rumble HQ in DC.
00:01:26.000 I'm in Washington because I've been participating in Rescue the Republic, Brett Weinstein's event, at which many people, including Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy, appeared.
00:01:36.000 Here, before we get into it, make sure that if you're watching us in Rumble, make sure you've subscribed, make sure you like.
00:01:42.000 If you're an Awakened Wanderer watching us, make sure you're taking advantage of the incredible additional content that we're creating.
00:01:47.000 Before we get into today's brilliant interview with Jimmy Dore, and even for Jimmy Dore, he is immaculate today, bringing together a variety of themes.
00:01:57.000 All, I suppose, coalescing around the idea of unity.
00:02:01.000 Unity in particular, of course, between people that might oppose one another, whether that's culturally or politically, because this is a time where we have to have a decentralized but unified response to globalism and totalitarianism.
00:02:14.000 It's a fantastic conversation.
00:02:16.000 Before we get into that, here are some of my favorite moments from yesterday's Rescue the Republic event.
00:02:21.000 It was pretty fantastic.
00:02:23.000 Let me know in the comments and the chat if you were attending.
00:02:23.000 I hope you were there.
00:02:27.000 Let's have a look at that and then I'll be back with my conversation With Jimmy Dore.
00:02:30.000 See you in a second.
00:02:33.000 The freest, greatest experiment in freedom in the history of the world.
00:02:43.000 And it does require our eternal vigilance now more than ever.
00:02:49.000 But I am not worried.
00:02:51.000 I know that God has given us this great opportunity to recharge ourselves, to ask us what we want as a nation, as a community, as a family, and as individuals.
00:03:08.000 We want to continue this for the next generation and for our grandchildren.
00:03:14.000 And that decision that we make this November are going to help continue this freedom moving forward.
00:03:22.000 And because freedom of speech is now frequently described as a stalking horse for hate and discrimination, the phrase appears less and less.
00:03:30.000 Speech is mentioned in reputable media really only as a possible vector for the disease of misinformation or disinformation.
00:03:40.000 And for most people, the only thing that will remain of this issue soon is a little flutter of nerves reminding them not to think about it.
00:03:50.000 It's why it's important to understand the endgame of the censors is not controlling speech.
00:03:54.000 They're already doing that.
00:03:56.000 They're already removing speech.
00:03:58.000 The endgame is getting us to forget that we ever had anything to say.
00:04:06.000 Some will ask why it takes courage or love to deliver or witness a speech here in the shadow of the Washington Monument.
00:04:14.000 Obviously, it shouldn't.
00:04:16.000 But I doubt there are many here today who did not seriously consider whether they were putting their freedom, or perhaps even their lives, in danger.
00:04:24.000 And as we planned the event, many people shared their concerns.
00:04:28.000 I've lost count of the number of times I was warned not to do it by someone who then wished us luck.
00:04:33.000 But the more I listened to people's trepidations, the simpler the calculus became.
00:04:39.000 If millions of Americans are afraid to exercise their most fundamental right in their own capital, that implies the Capitol is held by a force that is hostile to the Republic and her people.
00:04:53.000 What I saw there were people coming from all over the world, across the border, knowing exactly where to go.
00:05:02.000 Not to evade Border Patrol, but to be picked up by Border Patrol.
00:05:07.000 Waiting patiently to be loaded in the vans where Border Patrol have become nothing but Uber drivers for them.
00:05:15.000 Where they are quickly processed through a system that often within 24 hours gets them with a free plane ticket to anywhere in the country.
00:05:25.000 Often never to be heard from again.
00:05:28.000 What I saw as I stood in a parking lot near a train station where many of these drop-offs occurred were human traffickers who were waiting, women who were being drugged unknowingly, and in their foggy state of mind being ushered into cars, never to be heard from again.
00:05:49.000 During COVID, we saw the greatest attack On America's liberties and our constitutional right, and at any time in American history.
00:06:02.000 We saw by February of 2020, they were already censoring doctors, scientists, individuals, anybody who questioned the government orthodoxy.
00:06:18.000 The American press, guardians of the free speech of the First Amendment, of our democracy all took part in this unprecedented effort to silence dissent in our country.
00:06:37.000 The press, which is supposed to function to speak truth to power, instead began silencing the powerless and acting as a bullhorn for government orthodoxies.
00:06:52.000 And as soon as they figured out If they could censor us and that we were going to put up with it, they began an assault against all of our other Bill of Rights.
00:07:05.000 Hamilton, Adams, and Madison said that we put freedom of expression in the First Amendment because all of the other rights are dependent on it.
00:07:16.000 A government that has the capacity to silence its critics has license for any atrocity.
00:07:25.000 We're here in support of your freedom, our freedom, and collective freedom.
00:07:30.000 So with that, I will now ask you, Dr. Jordan Peterson, why did you, because now, this is a segue, I'm moving to an interview now, I'm aware I've spoken for a long while.
00:07:39.000 Any of you that know Jordan Peterson, well, you've never seen Jordan Peterson not talk for that long, have you?
00:07:46.000 Well, you know, it's not entirely obvious to me what the solution to this situation is, you know.
00:07:52.000 It's pretty plain.
00:07:54.000 I know you've got a microphone, and I've seen you defend yourself against English broadcasters extremely well.
00:08:06.000 And make no mistake, it's under true assault.
00:08:09.000 In my country, there's a bill that's in second reading, which has pushed it quite a ways along the legislative route, Bill C-63, which literally allows people to be reported to a provincial magistrate Under the possibility of one year's imprisonment in their own house with an ankle bracelet, with all their communication intercepted, in consequence of anyone's complaint, that they're afraid that a hate speech event might occur in the next year.
00:08:40.000 Yes.
00:08:41.000 That's Bill C-63.
00:08:43.000 You know, and I've read that bill, I've read that bill three times, because every time I read it, and then think about it, I can't believe that I could have possibly understood it properly.
00:08:55.000 And yet here we are, and there is very similar things going on in the UK.
00:08:58.000 There was a terrible bill that was recently defeated in Ireland, for example, which Would it put severe restrictions on free speech?
00:09:05.000 And there are people in the UK who are being persecuted and seriously persecuted for expressing their opinions, offensive though they may be, publicly in a manner that is absolutely necessary if you're going to support free speech.
00:09:22.000 Well, the free speech that offends no one requires no defense, and that's partly because it has no content.
00:09:28.000 If I only ever say something that everyone agrees with and produces no emotional response whatsoever, there's no point in even speaking.
00:09:38.000 Because you don't have to concentrate on what's obvious if you're going to speak, you have to concentrate on what's contentious and disruptive.
00:09:46.000 Well, I hope you enjoyed that.
00:09:47.000 Let me know if you were there in the comments and the chat, and be sure to post your favourite moments from that event here on Rumble, but also on X. And if you're not on AwakendWonder yet, become an AwakendWonder now.
00:09:59.000 We create incredible content and we've got some extremely exciting things coming down the pipe for you.
00:10:04.000 I don't even want to tell you about it, but I was with Tucker Carlson, wasn't I, in Florida the other day, and it's connected to that.
00:10:10.000 So please, if you're not on AwakendWonder yet, become an AwakendWonder now.
00:10:15.000 A person who may not see eye to eye with me when it comes to the subject of spirituality but is neatly aligned on a whole host of political issues, in particular the necessity for people to come together to oppose gargantuanism, to establish some principles of subsidiarity, to be able to find common ground with people that you might otherwise be opposed to, is the great comedian and cultural commentator Jimmy Dore.
00:10:38.000 This is a fantastic conversation with Jimmy.
00:10:40.000 We talk about Rescue the Republic.
00:10:41.000 We talk a lot about Bobby Kennedy coming together with the Trump campaign and what that indicates.
00:10:46.000 And most of all, we talk about the necessity to end war and what the outpourings of perpetual war are domestically here in the United States.
00:10:54.000 Hope you enjoy this conversation.
00:10:56.000 Let me know what you think in the comments.
00:10:56.000 Stay with us.
00:11:00.000 Thanks for joining me today, Jimmy.
00:11:02.000 Great to be here, thanks for having me.
00:11:03.000 We're here to participate in Rescue the Republic and at this point we've not done it.
00:11:10.000 You've just heard from Rob Schneider that we should slow down when we're on the stage.
00:11:15.000 How do you feel about being part of this, Jimmy?
00:11:17.000 Because the way that the last six months has unfolded, if it had happened in the 80s or even the 90s, one would imagine the news events around the assassination attempts would have garnered more attention and lived longer in the cycle.
00:11:30.000 Something as seemingly seismic as someone like Bobby Kennedy joining the campaign of a rival, fundamentally, I suppose, crossing the aisle during a campaign.
00:11:40.000 It would be reported on significantly, but the only reporting you see on Bobby Kennedy are smears and attacks.
00:11:46.000 The only reporting you really see on Trump is sort of endless amplification of his flaws and failings.
00:11:53.000 I just wonder, as someone that, sort of like me, is really, at least culturally, was a figure of the left, how you're continuing to navigate this, or have you sort of flung off all concerns about that at this point?
00:12:06.000 Well, I think the reason why it's not a bigger story is because nothing is a story unless the media decides it's a story, right?
00:12:12.000 And then they decide how it's supposed to be a story, right?
00:12:16.000 So they don't want Trump's assassinations to be a big or attempts to be a big story.
00:12:22.000 They don't want it to be a big story that Bobby Kennedy's shifting over.
00:12:26.000 What they want to be is a big story is his non-sex sex affair where he didn't have sex.
00:12:32.000 It's the craziest thing I've ever heard.
00:12:34.000 They want the fact that he's being investigated over a whale.
00:12:39.000 They want that to be a story, or that he found a dead bear.
00:12:41.000 They want these things to be the story.
00:12:44.000 They don't want the actual story to be the story.
00:12:45.000 So that's, and you know, that's the big problem with the media, right?
00:12:49.000 You know, when I was younger, the news media used to be blue-collar people like me, people who came from working-class backgrounds.
00:12:56.000 And now, since it's only six companies that run all the media in the United States, you have these journalists that come from Ivy League universities that are hand-picked by the billionaires to go do, and they're happy to do the propaganda because they know they're going to be class-loyal.
00:13:11.000 And that's the kind of media we have.
00:13:13.000 We have class-loyal Ivy League pukes That are giving us our news and shaping the culture.
00:13:20.000 And so that's why we're living in the world we're living in.
00:13:22.000 That's why Kamala Harris, the story is, which they never talk about, is that she became the first presidential nominee without ever getting a vote.
00:13:31.000 That's the whole, you know, and I say, they call her, I've been in comedy clubs and they call her a queen.
00:13:37.000 And I guess by queen, they mean someone who was, you know, installed by the elite without any votes from the populace.
00:13:43.000 Because that's what that's really happening.
00:13:45.000 So that's the big story, but they'll never talk about that.
00:13:48.000 They let her not do... She's not doing interviews.
00:13:52.000 She's not taking questions.
00:13:54.000 And when she does do an interview, it's with Oprah.
00:13:56.000 It's more of a rally than it is an interview or a hard-hitting.
00:14:00.000 So again, that's the problem.
00:14:02.000 The problem is The news media, they control the narrative.
00:14:05.000 That's why we're at this thing today.
00:14:07.000 I'm there to talk about the First Amendment because the establishment on the left and the right want to get rid of the First Amendment.
00:14:13.000 They don't want you to be able to have free speech.
00:14:15.000 That's the thing that screws them up.
00:14:17.000 John Kerry, there's a video going around today on social media about him saying, that's the problem.
00:14:23.000 We can't reach a consensus because of social media.
00:14:26.000 That's good.
00:14:27.000 That's good.
00:14:27.000 But they don't like that.
00:14:28.000 And so that's why all those things aren't bigger stories than they should be.
00:14:34.000 A brief pause to hand the floor, just for a moment, to some of our important sponsors and partners over here at Rumble.
00:14:41.000 Stay with us, it's just a minute.
00:14:44.000 Airports and planes are heavy EMF exposure zones due to the volume of people with individual devices and Wi-Fi within confined spaces.
00:14:51.000 I think that's sometimes for all of them phones, everyone staring at their devices.
00:14:55.000 It's important to protect yourself if you're undertaking such travel from EMF.
00:15:00.000 Imagine sitting on a commercial flight, every single person there smothered in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth earbuds, all that stuff.
00:15:07.000 You might as well be in a fuselage made of electromagnetic energy.
00:15:11.000 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention classifies airline crew members as radiation workers precisely because of this fact.
00:15:17.000 Airstek, as you know, probably, are an official partner of the UFC.
00:15:21.000 They're the only scientifically validated EMF protection solution.
00:15:25.000 Hang that little thing around your neck.
00:15:27.000 It sups up those sweet little problems.
00:15:30.000 Airtek uses EMF modulation technology that is trusted and used around the world.
00:15:35.000 Go to airstek.com forward slash pages forward slash Russell dash brand.
00:15:40.000 Use code Russell 30 for 30% off.
00:15:42.000 That's code Russell 30 for 30% off.
00:15:45.000 Give yourself the advantages that these devices represent.
00:15:48.000 Thank you.
00:15:50.000 Do you think the framing of Bobby Kennedy in particular as like a kook and a madman and attacks on him is because in effect the real story is that there is a coalescing around Trump That can now legitimately be called an anti-establishment movement.
00:16:12.000 Do you think that when you mention Kamala Harris appearing on Oprah and it seeming more like a rally, that we're now, you know, of course it's common to talk of the silos in the information space, but when I think like that, you know, you and I have figures that are typically associated with the left, are doing events and participating in sort of like online forums or round tables or symposiums or things that amount to campaigning along with people like Tulsi Gabbard or Vivek Ramaswamy or Tucker or you know they're starting to look like I wonder how
00:16:45.000 Now they can continue to maintain the idea that there is something anti-establishment or pro-civil rights or almost the inheritors of the mantles of the great civil rights activists of the 60s like Martin Luther King or Malcolm X. Because when I see something like that Oprah spectacle, I like the movies of Ben Stiller and the movies of Meryl Streep and stuff.
00:17:11.000 It to me seems like now they're these are entirely separate worlds where there are sort of pundits that have come out of entertainment say like you or me but coupled with people that come from the business space or the military or law you know to be speaking about Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi All ultimately saying, in order to disrupt this project of globalism and totalitarianism, even if Make America First and MAGA and all that stuff is, you know, to some degree, of course, a nativist movement, this presents a kind of disruption to something that's more nefarious than what they're trying to present as the threat of dictatorship and tyranny, the sort of strongman demagoguery of Trump.
00:17:50.000 What do you feel when you see those two worlds?
00:17:53.000 And is it even possible to speculate on how this is all going to pan out, Jimmy?
00:17:59.000 Well, like I said, I think it's going to pan out.
00:18:03.000 I'll be surprised if the CIA allows Trump to become president.
00:18:07.000 If, as my friend Russell Dobler says, if he does become president, he has to rethink everything he thought about the CIA and the deep state.
00:18:15.000 So, I feel the same way, but what people don't realize is that Trump is a billionaire.
00:18:21.000 He's always been loved by the establishment.
00:18:23.000 Since I was a kid, he was on every late night talk show.
00:18:26.000 He hosted Saturday Night Live.
00:18:27.000 They all golf together, the Clintons and them.
00:18:30.000 They all go to each other's third and fourth weddings.
00:18:34.000 And then they even gave him a network television show in the United States.
00:18:34.000 It's amazing.
00:18:37.000 Hollywood gave him Emmy nominations.
00:18:40.000 Hollywood stars would come and call him Mr. Trump and bend their knee to him.
00:18:44.000 And then all of a sudden, when he became president, he is the worst thing in the world.
00:18:48.000 He's a combination of Hitler and Stalin.
00:18:51.000 And it's because, just like Elon Musk, he's a billionaire who stepped out of line a little bit.
00:18:57.000 Trump had the crazy idea that the president is supposed to control the military and the intelligence community.
00:19:03.000 And as Chuck Schumer said on Rachel Maddow, that he's dumb to think that.
00:19:08.000 He shouldn't go against the CIA because they've got six ways this Sunday to get back at the President.
00:19:13.000 And what he revealed in that moment was that the CIA and the intelligence community in the United States doesn't work for the President.
00:19:20.000 The President better be afraid of them.
00:19:21.000 And my question is, well, who do they work for then, right?
00:19:24.000 And that should have been the follow-up question, but Rachel Maddow's never going to ask that question because she works for the same people the CIA work for.
00:19:31.000 The military-industrial complex, a handful of billionaires, and Wall Street.
00:19:35.000 And so the other thing people don't realize is that anybody who's a populist, like, so Trump is more certainly more of a populist than Kamala Harris.
00:19:44.000 Kamala Harris was plucked by Wall Street.
00:19:46.000 She was their first choice in 2020.
00:19:48.000 And then she couldn't get a vote.
00:19:49.000 She had to drop out before Iowa.
00:19:51.000 And so they just installed her right this time.
00:19:53.000 So if you step out of line, Elon Musk wants to give you a little bit more free speech on Twitter.
00:19:59.000 They, all of a sudden, he's a pariah.
00:20:01.000 He went from being everybody's hero because he's making electric cars to being hated by the establishment, right?
00:20:06.000 Because they can't control him 100%.
00:20:08.000 And if it wasn't Trump, anybody who, like, if it was Bernie Sanders, they would be doing the exact same thing to him.
00:20:14.000 In fact, they did Russiagate Bernie Sanders during his campaign, and Bernie played along with it.
00:20:19.000 He's such a cuck.
00:20:22.000 And so if it was him or if, say, if Cornel West was actually getting votes or, I mean, look how they're coming out against Jill Stein.
00:20:28.000 So no matter who threatens the establishment even a little bit, that's what they're going to do to them.
00:20:33.000 So anybody, look, it's not just Donald Trump, right?
00:20:39.000 For instance, there's this thing called Stop Cop City in the United States, which are people protesting the expansion of the police state.
00:20:45.000 They use the same RICO statutes and the same grand jury to indict those people as they did Donald Trump.
00:20:51.000 And nobody can put those two things together.
00:20:53.000 So it's not just in the United States, too.
00:20:55.000 It's the global billionaires.
00:20:57.000 Look at Imran Khan in Pakistan.
00:20:59.000 He stood up and said, people of Pakistan want peace and we don't want to go along with NATO's wars.
00:21:04.000 And when I heard him say that, I was like, oh, he's in trouble.
00:21:07.000 And right away, they put him in jail.
00:21:09.000 And so do you remember what happened in Brazil?
00:21:11.000 Lula was running for president, and he was supposed to be the big lefty.
00:21:15.000 So they put him in prison in Brazil.
00:21:16.000 They thought the center right guy was going to win.
00:21:18.000 But then the far right guy, Bolsonaro, won.
00:21:21.000 They're like, oh, and what do we do now?
00:21:22.000 Just like when Trump won and when they passed Brexit, they didn't see that coming.
00:21:27.000 So then Bolsonaro's president, and they're like, well, what do we do?
00:21:29.000 Oh, we have to let Lula back out of prison because he's the only one who could beat Bolsonaro.
00:21:33.000 He does.
00:21:34.000 And then they immediately launched their own January 6th in Brazil, which nobody talks about in America.
00:21:39.000 I just found out that that happened.
00:21:41.000 And then so they can make it criminal, criminalize Bolsonaro.
00:21:44.000 So now he can't run for president again.
00:21:46.000 They're doing the same thing here.
00:21:47.000 91 felony counts to Donald Trump.
00:21:50.000 We've never, ever Prosecuted an ex-president in the history of our country, especially for garbage like they're doing here.
00:21:57.000 And they go, no, well, Jimmy, Donald Trump broke laws.
00:22:00.000 I'm like, really?
00:22:01.000 Then why does George Bush and Dick Cheney walk the earth, free men?
00:22:04.000 They lied us into an illegal war, killed a million people, and then ordered a worldwide torture program.
00:22:10.000 Barack Obama was constitutionally required to prosecute them, but he didn't.
00:22:14.000 And the public reason he gave was because all those torture crimes happened in the past, and Barack Obama was looking towards the future.
00:22:21.000 But the real reason is because Barack Obama works for the same people George Bush and Dick Cheney does.
00:22:26.000 And how do I know that?
00:22:27.000 Because Julian Assange revealed through WikiLeaks that an email came from Citigroup, Wall Street, to the Barack Obama campaign with a list of people they wanted in his cabinet.
00:22:37.000 And every one of those people on the list ended up in Barack Obama's cabinet.
00:22:41.000 So that's who he actually works for.
00:22:43.000 The same people Dick Cheney and George Bush worked for.
00:22:46.000 Barack Obama was not a departure from George Bush.
00:22:48.000 He was a continuation.
00:22:49.000 He took us from two wars to seven.
00:22:51.000 He made sure the bankers got their bonuses while he kicked 5.1 million families out of their houses.
00:22:56.000 He dropped more bombs than George Bush and nobody noticed.
00:23:00.000 And that's another thing, right?
00:23:01.000 So you're talking about how Oprah and all these billionaires and how do they not see that they are the establishment?
00:23:07.000 They're not anti-establishment.
00:23:08.000 Well, it's because now they're using identity politics.
00:23:11.000 So Oprah gets up there and talks about how she's been a victim of racism and sexism.
00:23:15.000 Kamala Harris, the same thing.
00:23:16.000 And so they're using their identity politics that the fact that they're black as somehow makes them an outsider when they're not outsiders.
00:23:24.000 They are the new establishment.
00:23:26.000 Barack Obama, You know, as Glenn Ford at the Black Agenda Report said, that the Democrats are the greater evil, because they can do things that we would be upset if Republicans did.
00:23:35.000 I said, you know, if a Republican becomes president, at least Democrats will protest them when they start a war.
00:23:41.000 But if it's Barack Obama or Kamala Harris, if it's a Democrat, especially if it's a black-skinned Democrat, they won't do that.
00:23:48.000 They just go right along.
00:23:49.000 Well, it must be the right thing to do.
00:23:51.000 Barack Obama's doing it.
00:23:52.000 So that's, I hope that's not too long of an answer to your question, but that's the world we're living in.
00:23:57.000 That's a great observation that they don't realize that they are the establishment.
00:24:02.000 That's all that we can stream on YouTube.
00:24:04.000 If you want to watch this video in its entirety, click the link in the description right now and join us over on Rumble.
00:24:11.000 We can't let Jimmy speak openly and untethered about a variety of subjects like this on a sensorial platform that's ultimately part of the sets of systems that benefit from the control that we exist here on Rumble to oppose.
00:24:23.000 Click the link in the description.
00:24:25.000 See you in a few seconds.
00:24:27.000 It's an incredibly effective way to continue to divide people and retain the piety that's necessary to not fall into the self-examination that one might imagine our circumstances demand.
00:24:44.000 When the fleet of former Bush staffers offered their endorsement to Kamala, it was welcomed.
00:24:50.000 When the Cheneys offered their endorsement to Kamala, it was welcomed.
00:24:55.000 And it's interesting to observe the serpent snaking its way either side of the aisle, masked only by cutaneous distinction, not by anything of depth.
00:25:08.000 When you were talking just then about Barack Obama being a continuation of the legacy of Bush, It's very striking because I once watched, I bet you saw it, I may even have found it on your x-feed thinking about it, a PBS documentary about Obama when he was still senator and he weren't running for the nomination yet.
00:25:27.000 And what it seemed like was a story of a guy with a pretty unusual and anomalous past who was really pretty righteous actually, becoming a lawyer and doing pro bono work and going to that famous college that Is it browns where african-american people go a lot and like learning more than his marriage to Michelle?
00:25:44.000 This is like a really interesting character and it's so astonishing to see that in government what it amounts to is The the things that seem significant prior to their inauguration are merely branding that once in office It's like there will be wars.
00:26:03.000 We will bail out the banks.
00:26:04.000 There will not be an investigation into what happened in 2008 And what I suppose we're living in, it seems to me, Jimmy, as the business of war continues terrifyingly, as the information of men and people involved in WikiLeaks, but particularly Julian Assange, starts to permeate into the culture, we have to live in this
00:26:25.000 Kind of odd dual reality, I think, people that occupy these kind of independent media spaces and consume this type of content of knowing, yeah, I know that already now about like that's the this document about the cabinet appointments and yet somehow I'm watching the spectacle of I'm watching the spectacle of Oprah Winfrey We're oddly forced to occupy these worlds simultaneously.
00:26:49.000 Now, as the consequences increase and the cultural conversation is continually navigated back to divisiveness, issues that I think warrant Of course, the conversation about race and culture and identity, these are significant and important conversations that emerged from the civil rights movement.
00:27:10.000 Significantly, the economic component is often, as you say, extracted because there is no cohesive Working class movement that allows people of different colors.
00:27:21.000 If I'm in Chicago and I'm principally among people of color.
00:27:27.000 At the moment I'm staying in Atlanta and I'm going to speak to the guy that runs the Atlanta Voice out there.
00:27:35.000 His name's Donald Suggs.
00:27:36.000 He's the editor-in-chief.
00:27:37.000 They're a Democrat party supporting organization.
00:27:40.000 And I'm like, I want to talk to him about this election, and I don't want the idea that I believe it's important that the Democratic Party don't win in November.
00:27:52.000 I don't want that to be code for, I'm a racist.
00:27:56.000 I don't want that to be the conversation.
00:27:58.000 And the reason is because, in particular since Bobby's joined, it's like, Well, make America healthy again.
00:28:04.000 Do something about big food and big pharma.
00:28:06.000 Do something about the relentless machinery of war.
00:28:09.000 People will point out that there are certain conflicts that don't seem to be within that purview, but I think most of us are like, the military-industrial complex have too much of a hand in America's foreign policy.
00:28:20.000 And of course freedom of speech, which you've already touched upon.
00:28:23.000 But how, you know, if branding is ultimately what seems to be determining the outcomes of these election cycles with the deep, you know, the government always wins no matter how you elect, how do we as people that have made this kind of journey, and do you feel an obligation to, be able to talk to people that might affiliate with a
00:28:41.000 particular tribe on the basis of the cultural issues that the Democratic Party and their mouthpieces use
00:28:47.000 to create a division. How do you conduct those conversations? How do you bring people
00:28:52.000 together? And how do you highlight that an anti-establishment movement happens to be coalescing
00:28:58.000 around a nativist figure in Trump?
00:29:01.000 Well, the whole game of the establishment is divide and conquer.
00:29:08.000 And they want me to, you know, they did a controlled demolition of our economy during COVID, which smashed everybody except a handful of millionaires and billionaires.
00:29:19.000 And they want me to blame my neighbor and hate my neighbor for the pain I'm feeling because he wouldn't take a vaccine that didn't work the way they said it did in the first place.
00:29:29.000 And the only way you can fight back against that is to coalesce, to come together.
00:29:33.000 I'm not going to hate my neighbor.
00:29:35.000 My neighbor, we have a common enemy, and that common enemy is an oligarchy.
00:29:39.000 We're living in an oligarchy that's not hyperbole, that was proven by a Princeton study over 10 years ago, and it's only gotten worse.
00:29:46.000 And so as Christian Smalls proved on Staten Island, He started a union, the first union to go against Amazon on Staten Island.
00:29:55.000 Who lives there?
00:29:56.000 Trump voters.
00:29:57.000 So that was a black guy who organized Trump voters.
00:30:00.000 They coalesced around an issue.
00:30:02.000 That issue is around class lines.
00:30:04.000 We have economic interests that coalesce and crossover.
00:30:08.000 Let's join together to oppose Jeff Bezos and the oligarch.
00:30:12.000 And so that worked.
00:30:13.000 And so that's what they don't want you to do.
00:30:16.000 And that's what they... So even this thing we're speaking at today, they're like, oh, Jimmy, I've had people, many people saying, well, how could you be on stage?
00:30:24.000 Because this person thinks that and that person thinks this.
00:30:27.000 And I always quote Frederick Douglass.
00:30:29.000 I'll join.
00:30:30.000 I will unite with anyone to do right and with no one to do wrong.
00:30:34.000 And so, the fact that I vehemently disagree with other people on other issues, but I agree on certain things, like lawfare, ending wars, freedom of speech, that's what gives it the power.
00:30:45.000 If everybody was the same, thought the same, and we came together, nobody cares.
00:30:49.000 It's when people who disagree vehemently on certain things come together, and they're like, It's like when I spoke at the anti-war rally last year, and people were like, well, some of those people don't support the LGBTQ agenda.
00:31:03.000 I go, yeah, that's not what this rally is about.
00:31:05.000 This rally is about everybody coming together to end the war.
00:31:08.000 Because if we have a nuclear war, it doesn't matter what your LGBTQ agenda is.
00:31:12.000 And people from Code Pink wouldn't come because of that.
00:31:15.000 The joke I made was, yeah, I'd like to stop a nuclear war, but not with those people.
00:31:24.000 So that's what gives it its power.
00:31:26.000 You've got to remember that they want you to hate your neighbor.
00:31:30.000 After 2010, after Occupy Wall Street, that scared the establishment.
00:31:34.000 So the Tea Party was the right-wing people coming together to oppose Wall Street.
00:31:41.000 And Occupy was left-wing people coming together to oppose.
00:31:44.000 And they saw that.
00:31:45.000 We can't let them get together.
00:31:47.000 And so that's when you started to see all this talk about racism and white supremacy,
00:31:52.000 even after we elected Barack Obama.
00:31:54.000 And it was appearing in all the newspapers and the corporate media.
00:31:57.000 And they want us to focus on all that, white supremacy, racism, because that's a way to
00:32:01.000 divide everybody.
00:32:02.000 Even though every poll showed up until that point, everybody thought race relations were
00:32:07.000 getting better and better than they've ever been in the history of our country.
00:32:11.000 They don't want that.
00:32:12.000 They want to find a way to make people divided.
00:32:14.000 And that's exactly what's happening.
00:32:16.000 And it's working, actually.
00:32:18.000 People still pat themselves on the back for voting for Democrats.
00:32:21.000 You know, I was at the Democratic Convention this year, and it was depressing.
00:32:25.000 When I was at the Democratic Convention in 2016, half the people there had voted for Bernie Sanders,
00:32:31.000 who wanted to overthrow the corporate control of the Democratic Party.
00:32:34.000 They wanted to overthrow the Democratic establishment.
00:32:37.000 Well, this one, it was nothing like that.
00:32:40.000 Everybody was there, was on board with their corporate talking points.
00:32:43.000 They were cheering on corruption.
00:32:45.000 They were cheering on more war.
00:32:47.000 They were cheering on division.
00:32:49.000 It really did depress me.
00:32:51.000 I'm not kidding.
00:32:52.000 And it was like a Stepford Wives convention.
00:32:54.000 Nobody had a critique of the Democratic Party.
00:32:57.000 Nobody wanted them to change.
00:32:59.000 I make the case that Donald Trump is running to the left of Kamala Harris.
00:33:05.000 And he is.
00:33:06.000 He says he wants to end the war in Ukraine.
00:33:08.000 Kamala Harris doesn't want to do that.
00:33:10.000 He says he wants to take the tax off tipped wages.
00:33:13.000 Well, then she copied him.
00:33:15.000 Right?
00:33:15.000 So there's lots of things that he wants to abolish.
00:33:19.000 He wants to obliterate the deep state.
00:33:21.000 They love the deep state.
00:33:22.000 They love the FBI.
00:33:23.000 The FBI has a history of infiltrating left-wing groups, dividing them, and conquering them.
00:33:29.000 And everybody knows that.
00:33:30.000 Look what they did to Martin Luther King.
00:33:32.000 They tried to get him to kill himself.
00:33:33.000 They tried to get him to commit suicide.
00:33:35.000 And now the Democrats cheer on the FBI.
00:33:37.000 Why?
00:33:37.000 Because the establishment media told them to, because they think the FBI is opposing Trump.
00:33:42.000 No, what the FBI opposes is democracy, and they oppose the Constitution, and Trump just happens to be in the way of that.
00:33:50.000 And so people don't realize.
00:33:51.000 So that's how I reach out to people.
00:33:53.000 I find common ground.
00:33:54.000 I did a show once in Los Angeles, was it in May?
00:33:58.000 And so I had a guy in my front row with a MAGA hat on, and I had a guy who was a confirmed Marxist.
00:34:04.000 You know he's a Marxist because he walked around, he had two books he gave me.
00:34:07.000 That's how you can tell.
00:34:09.000 And they started yelling at each other right in the middle of the show.
00:34:12.000 Then the one guy got right in his face and I was like, oh, they're going to be a fight.
00:34:15.000 Then they stood up and hugged each other.
00:34:17.000 And I was like, hey, maybe they were talking about the Fed.
00:34:20.000 Who knows what it was?
00:34:21.000 But they realized they have more in common than divide.
00:34:23.000 And that's the that's the scariest thing for them.
00:34:25.000 And that's again, I'm not making that up.
00:34:27.000 That's not hyperbole.
00:34:28.000 If people on the left and the right realize we share a common enemy, not this phony thing that Kamala Harris says, we have more in common.
00:34:36.000 She means she has more in common with Dick Cheney.
00:34:38.000 She doesn't mean she has more in common with a union or with a worker.
00:34:42.000 They smashed the union.
00:34:44.000 They smashed a railroad union strike here in the United States.
00:34:47.000 Flint still doesn't have clean water.
00:34:51.000 She's talking about we have more in common with establishment Republicans and establishment Democrats.
00:34:56.000 She doesn't mean populists.
00:34:57.000 She doesn't mean workers.
00:34:59.000 She doesn't mean students.
00:35:00.000 She doesn't mean the sick.
00:35:02.000 She doesn't mean any of that.
00:35:03.000 In fact, they still are not talking about giving people health care.
00:35:06.000 That's what you get.
00:35:07.000 When Barack Obama became president, he gave us a right-wing health care plan.
00:35:10.000 We're still living under today.
00:35:11.000 But anyway, I know I talk too much.
00:35:13.000 No, you don't.
00:35:13.000 You're perfect.
00:35:14.000 You talked a bit about the...
00:35:18.000 Way that if you focus on the issue and organize around the issue, it creates the opportunity for alliance.
00:35:24.000 When you focus on identity, it creates disruption.
00:35:28.000 I feel that the type of iconoclasm that emerged in a couple of years ago in your country, just prior to COVID, the pulling down of statues and stuff, I was watching that and I was thinking, where does this end?
00:35:39.000 Because of the complexity of these figures and the complexity of the history, ultimately if you pull down these statues and then pull down the ideas that they represent, What will be left?
00:35:48.000 You know, I wondered in my country, when would it be Winston Churchill?
00:35:51.000 And Winston Churchill's a complex guy in Dresden, and there's lots of arguments.
00:35:55.000 But prior to that, I'd been sort of more, I suppose, a somewhat more superficial way.
00:36:01.000 I was thinking of like, say, someone like Che Guevara, who like, of course, if like a Cuban nationalist were watching me now, and many of the people I know that live in America, They fled Cuba because of their reaction to Castro's communism.
00:36:16.000 They hate him and they would talk about the execution of gay people.
00:36:19.000 But my kind of excitement about Che Guevara when I was a kid was, oh wow, this dude was going around starting revolutions.
00:36:26.000 It's amazing.
00:36:27.000 And then my fascination with Gandhi is, wow, this guy was willing to sacrifice himself and stand up against the British and was able, through self-sacrifice and incredible leadership, to organize against what was then the most powerful empire in the world.
00:36:40.000 And then Martin Luther King, oh wow, this guy, because of his spiritual and religious principles, is willing to...
00:36:45.000 Malcolm X, the same thing.
00:36:46.000 They have every single one of those people now in the same way that statues were pulled down against sort of confederate leaders but ultimately presidents and people talking about, you know, George Washington being a slave owner and people talking about, you know, we have in our country people at football matches taking the knee at a soccer match, you know, in front of the royal family and the royal family are applauded And taking a knee against racism.
00:37:11.000 But the racism that we're talking about really is surely the racism that's persecutory and exploitative, imperial and colonial.
00:37:16.000 They exploited the people of the continent of Africa and that nation of India in order to create the royal family and the incredible colonial and imperial power that are, you know, the beneficiaries of movements that now can be used to divide ordinary working-class people along the lines of the basis of class.
00:37:35.000 The football match, white folk there feel sort of tense about it and sort of uncertain.
00:37:40.000 And like me, there's a lot of black footballers in my country.
00:37:43.000 If that's important to them, of course I'll be on board.
00:37:47.000 End racism.
00:37:48.000 Get racism out of sport.
00:37:49.000 Fantastic.
00:37:50.000 But it seems that it's being deployed in a way that makes sense when I look at it thusly.
00:37:55.000 During the COVID pandemic, I was thinking, They really seem to care a lot about us, locking us in our homes, making us tear this medication, making us wear these masks.
00:38:04.000 Where has this care been up till now with issues of poverty and inequality and homelessness and destitution and sending working class people into war?
00:38:13.000 Where is this care then?
00:38:14.000 And then I've started to think about the subject of migration in a similar way.
00:38:17.000 Huh, how come they really care about these refugees and it's our responsibility to offer a home to all these migrants?
00:38:22.000 Because where has that care been elsewise?
00:38:25.000 And it seems to me that the disruption of individual heroes who in one area of their life, let me be clear about this, in one area of their life represent greatness.
00:38:34.000 By destroying them, it's almost like the concept of greatness He's getting pulled by all Gandhi, slept in a bed with his
00:38:40.000 nieces, Che Guevara murdered homosexuals, Martin Luther King had affairs with his secretary, Malcolm
00:38:46.000 X maybe did sex work when he was young.
00:38:49.000 Like everyone's annihilated, everyone's required to be perfect and in this kind of
00:38:53.000 male, this nihilistic maelstrom Jimmy, we don't have any leaders to look to, any teachers,
00:38:58.000 any aspiration and meanwhile everything is getting banalized and we're sort of,
00:39:02.000 our expectations are so low and the kind of conversations we're having aren't addressing
00:39:06.000 What's actually life like in America for people in Michigan and Wisconsin?
00:39:10.000 What's it actually like to be in America?
00:39:12.000 Do you feel joy?
00:39:13.000 Do you feel connected to nature?
00:39:15.000 Do you feel connected to one another?
00:39:16.000 Do you feel connected to God?
00:39:18.000 And are you concerned about these wars?
00:39:21.000 That are happening everywhere, and the power of big food.
00:39:23.000 You know, again, we keep talking about Bobby, but I guess I love Bobby.
00:39:27.000 You know, like, he's bringing, suddenly you're talking about the toxicity of foods, the addictiveness of foods.
00:39:33.000 And I've seen sort of obvious dem supports going, oh, you don't have to eat that cereal if you don't want to.
00:39:38.000 Well, do you know what addiction means?
00:39:39.000 It means you do eat it if you don't want to.
00:39:42.000 And like, there's a kind of a nihilism somewhere in all of this, and I'm wondering, you know, what you feel about that.
00:39:49.000 And again, how do they continue to wave the flag of piety and of righteousness while advocating for war, while advocating for Big Pharma?
00:39:58.000 Like, earlier you talked about, I can't remember which example you gave, but when for a minute, like, Pfizer were heroes and people were getting Pfizer.
00:40:04.000 This is Big Pharma.
00:40:05.000 These people are getting sued out of court the whole time.
00:40:08.000 They kill people.
00:40:09.000 They advocate.
00:40:09.000 They'll do anything to make money.
00:40:11.000 They're anti-human organizations.
00:40:13.000 And I wonder if this anti-humane idea is something that's settling in with you or resonating with you.
00:40:21.000 Well, you know, you remember The establishment loved Martin Luther King Jr.
00:40:27.000 when he wanted black people to sit at lunch counters.
00:40:30.000 When did they turn on him?
00:40:31.000 Well, when he turned on the Vietnam War and he started a poor people's march.
00:40:35.000 It wasn't a black poor people's march, it was poor people's march.
00:40:39.000 So when he started to actually affect the establishment economically is when they came after him and that's when they killed him.
00:40:45.000 When he went against the war, the Democratic Party turned against him.
00:40:48.000 He paid op-eds from his own supporters.
00:40:51.000 You can't do this.
00:40:52.000 And so that's what you have to remember, is that they loved identity politics.
00:40:58.000 They loved to prop it up until it cost them.
00:41:01.000 That's why they love all this.
00:41:03.000 So I try to tell people that the trans issue, right?
00:41:06.000 So I have no bigotry towards trans people.
00:41:09.000 I support them and support their ability to live their life the way they want to without discrimination.
00:41:17.000 And you should treat them how you want to be treated.
00:41:19.000 But at the same with the overemphasis of this issue.
00:41:23.000 Uh, that affects maybe, you know, a small, very small percentage of the population is because that's a way for people like BlackRock and State Street and Vanguard to, as they're raping the planet and screwing workers, They can wrap themselves in a patina of virtue, and they can say, look, I'm for trans, I'm for LGBTQ, and it's all about that now.
00:41:47.000 We used to make a joke about it, you know?
00:41:49.000 You would put a gay pride flag on a bomb and go, that's a Democrat bomb.
00:41:54.000 And so they're doing that now.
00:41:55.000 They're literally putting, you know, and so that's what that's all about.
00:41:59.000 It's all about faking people out with identity politics.
00:42:02.000 And identity politics is to make sure people don't come together.
00:42:06.000 It's to give the people who are raping the planet and screwing the workers cover.
00:42:11.000 And, you know, the joke I say, you know, if it was 1860, the Democrats wouldn't be trying to fix slavery.
00:42:20.000 They'd be bragging about their first transgendered slave owner.
00:42:23.000 And that's that's where we're at today.
00:42:25.000 And so that's what that's all about.
00:42:27.000 And yes, it is.
00:42:28.000 They the establishment certainly doesn't care about people.
00:42:31.000 And, you know, the endless wars.
00:42:33.000 It's just amazing how now they've the people who the Democratic Party is not the Democratic Party that I grew up in.
00:42:39.000 They're not the Democrats that I grew up admiring.
00:42:43.000 Right?
00:42:43.000 They're now pro-censorship, which is the hallmark of authoritarian dictators.
00:42:47.000 And again, they wrap it in, we're helping you.
00:42:50.000 We're only shutting up the bad people.
00:42:53.000 And the misinformation and disinformation.
00:42:53.000 Right?
00:42:56.000 Well, the biggest purveyor of misinformation and disinformation is the government.
00:43:00.000 Second is the corporate media.
00:43:02.000 And a far distant third are randos on social media.
00:43:05.000 But they don't want to tell you that.
00:43:07.000 They want to think that you're... That's what every dictator says.
00:43:09.000 We're keeping out the bad influence of the outsiders.
00:43:12.000 So the Democratic Party is now pro-censorship, just like a dictator.
00:43:15.000 They're pro-war.
00:43:17.000 They're anti-choice.
00:43:17.000 They're pro-war.
00:43:19.000 They used to say, my body, my choice.
00:43:21.000 When did they stop saying that?
00:43:22.000 During COVID, when they wanted to force you to take an experimental medical treatment with no long-term studies.
00:43:27.000 So then they went from being pro-choice to pro-abortion, which is the weirdest sounding thing.
00:43:31.000 It's like being pro-amputation.
00:43:33.000 It's like, no, if you have to do it, do it, but I'm not going to be excited about it.
00:43:36.000 And so that so they don't say that anymore.
00:43:38.000 My body, my choice, because they don't mean that because their corporate overlords don't want them to say that.
00:43:45.000 So that's the that's the world we're living in.
00:43:47.000 And, you know, Bobby talks about there's a shift in the parties happening.
00:43:51.000 I don't really think that's happening.
00:43:52.000 I think that maybe there's a populist message coming from the Trump campaign now and they were going to do to a populist, whether it's a populist left, whether it's the populist right, whether it's an independent populist, what they're doing to Trump and Bobby, they'll do to anybody who stands up at a populist message.
00:44:09.000 And what we need to do is what we're doing today at this rally to come together.
00:44:14.000 The thing that scares them, the only thing that scares them We can't make this content without the support of our partners.

00:45:47.000 All right, let's get back to this content.
00:45:49.000 One of the many advantages of following us on Locals is that you get early access
00:45:54.000 to brilliant conversations with informed pundits and experts.
00:45:58.000 I spoke to Dr. Asim Malhotra about his film.
00:46:01.000 First, Do No Farm.
00:46:03.000 He talked at length about the ozempic crisis and the way that it's being brought about.
00:46:09.000 Why would you not just get people to eat healthy food?
00:46:11.000 This is already up.
00:46:12.000 If you're a member of our Locals community, you can watch this right now.
00:46:16.000 Consider becoming one.
00:46:17.000 Have a look.
00:46:19.000 And we've got these new drugs for weight loss now which are giving, you know, every person under the sun is on this for weight loss, the Zempik, and we go into detail and explain how problematic those drugs are.
00:46:30.000 We've got an Alzheimer's drug that's been approved by a regulator in this country where the clinical evidence shows that for women, and these are two-thirds of people that have Alzheimer's disease, it actually has a negative effect.
00:46:39.000 I mean, this is just absolutely criminal what's happening and it needs accountability.
00:46:45.000 I really appreciate the way that you continually stitch back to that idea.
00:46:49.000 It's a very disciplined way to communicate and broadcast.
00:46:53.000 I always learn a lot when I listen to you, but I like most of all the way that you continue to push that important message in a way that I I feel that perhaps, I realize this, you know, like I'm on Rumble, I love Rumble, they really supported me.
00:47:09.000 A lot of the native Rumble broadcasters are of the right, so they don't have no brinkmanship, you know, I'm talking about people that I respect over here, Stephen Crow does say, Dan Bongino, some of the big, they're not like in the back of their minds like, oh how does this, you know, they're fully committed.
00:47:25.000 So, I learn a lot from listening to how you navigate, because sometimes I get just lost out here, I'm English, I'm from this country, and I know a lot of people that culturally are from comparable backgrounds to me feel a sort of vagrancy, like who are we supposed to, what are we meant to do, we've been coached about Trump, you know, it's interesting, and I feel like what we've got to
00:47:47.000 Participate in is at least helping people to observe and it really, I love it to hear you inventory, this is how I feel about the issue of trans, this is how I feel about this issue, you know, like to just lay it out there because it can get so tribal and people, people on both sides, like lean into the uglier parts of the argument.
00:48:04.000 I'm never, I'm not comfortable with that stuff.
00:48:06.000 I don't like that.
00:48:07.000 I don't like hatred and condemnation.
00:48:10.000 Of course I do it and suffer from it, but it's not something I'm trying to showcase as part of my personality.
00:48:14.000 It's a flaw.
00:48:16.000 You know when you see like recently Jimmy like Zelensky signing those bombs with Josh Shapiro and Trump in his meeting with Zelensky advocating for peace while Biden at the UN was further agitating for an ongoing conflict and foreclosing on the possibility of a peaceful negotiation on this subject of war.
00:48:40.000 Isn't that vivid enough for people to see that this is an important political moment for people to come together?
00:48:49.000 How do you think like a, you know, like you see podcasters that are pro Kamala that go to White House dinners and stuff or White House events.
00:48:56.000 What are they saying to themselves with the Zelensky signing bombs, with the Biden, you know, coming out of his sepulture for a moment just to sort of advocate for further war?
00:49:08.000 And Trump saying, peace deal necessary.
00:49:11.000 I don't know how they're managing that space.
00:49:15.000 Well, they're definitely doing mental gymnastics, that's for sure.
00:49:18.000 And they're pretending.
00:49:20.000 Along with the Democratic Party and Kamala Harris, they're pretending that somehow she isn't currently in office right now.
00:49:28.000 I see Tim Walz's wife give a speech who says, we're going to turn the page.
00:49:32.000 Well, you know who's on the page you're turning?
00:49:34.000 Kamala Harris.
00:49:35.000 You know who's on the next page?
00:49:36.000 Kamala Harris.
00:49:37.000 She's on all the pages.
00:49:39.000 I think we should slam that book shut.
00:49:41.000 That's what I think.
00:49:42.000 And so that's what they're doing now.
00:49:44.000 They're pretending.
00:49:44.000 And so I don't know how people who consider themselves lefties can support Kamala Harris, right?
00:49:51.000 Now, I have a red line when it comes to... I will amplify help and work with anybody to help end war.
00:50:00.000 So if Trump's for ending that war, I'll do whatever I can to help end the Ukraine war.
00:50:00.000 Right?
00:50:05.000 And when I hear Bobby on stage at a Trump rally say we have to end those endless wars, invest that money back in America, and the whole place cheers, a stadium full of Republican voters cheers, that's what scares them, right?
00:50:19.000 Because that's something I could cheer for.
00:50:21.000 That's what people on the left are supposed to be cheering for.
00:50:23.000 That's when we realize that we have the same common interests.
00:50:27.000 We're not as different as people make us.
00:50:29.000 We're not the cartoon caricatures that the corporate media makes us out to be.
00:50:33.000 When Bobby says he wants to take on Big Agra, and he wants to get the corruption out of the FDA and the CDC, and he wants to take on Big Pharma, And a stadium full of Republican voters cheer that on.
00:50:45.000 I'm like, I can cheer that on.
00:50:47.000 So that again, that is the message that scares them.
00:50:50.000 And that's why they keep on distracting you with everything possible.
00:50:54.000 And yeah, they don't want to talk about how they try to corner Trump going, well, don't you want Ukraine to win?
00:50:59.000 He says, I want the war to end so people stop dying.
00:51:02.000 And right now it's obvious if you anybody who knows anything about this from Chomsky to to Henry Kissinger to Mersheimer and everybody in between has said that this is a NATO provoked war.
00:51:16.000 We shouldn't be doing this.
00:51:18.000 And the last thing you want to do is push Uh, Russia closer to China, which is exactly what's happened.
00:51:24.000 So all this stuff that they said was going to happen under Donald Trump, we're closer to nuclear war right now than we ever been.
00:51:30.000 There's a third world war.
00:51:31.000 It looks like it might break out in the Middle East right now because of our support for Israel and their apartheid state.
00:51:36.000 All these things that they said was going to happen under Trump is happening right now because who is Joe Biden and Kamala Harris?
00:51:42.000 They're neocons.
00:51:43.000 They're not liberals, they're not lefty, they're illiberal neocon warmongers, and they don't run things right now.
00:51:50.000 Who's running the country?
00:51:51.000 The country's being run by the military-industrial complex, a handful of billionaires, and Wall Street, like it always is.
00:51:58.000 And you're not allowed to become president unless they first approve of you, just like we know they approved of Barack Obama from that email from Wall Street.
00:52:06.000 To his campaign.
00:52:07.000 We know that's who's running the country, because if it was really being run in the interest of the people, we wouldn't have people living under every bridge.
00:52:15.000 We would have healthcare for everybody.
00:52:17.000 We wouldn't have education that bankrupted you.
00:52:19.000 We wouldn't have housing prices that half the country can't afford a house now in the United States.
00:52:24.000 So it's not being run in the interest of the people, and it hasn't been for a long time.
00:52:29.000 And when people wake up to that, but the problem is we're not given a real choice.
00:52:33.000 Especially in our elections.
00:52:34.000 So now there's a choice to end the Ukraine war, but the problem was the way Trump governed in his first administration, his first term, he said, I'm going to go to Washington and drain the swamp.
00:52:47.000 Well, he drained the swamp, and right at the bottom of that swamp, he found his cabinet.
00:52:50.000 It was filled with the swamp, right?
00:52:52.000 The worst people in the world, the John Boltons, the Pompeos.
00:52:56.000 The head of Exxon became his Secretary of State.
00:52:58.000 I mean, it's just, it was ugly.
00:53:00.000 So now Bobby is going to try to convince people that, no, he didn't know what he was doing in the first term, and I'm going to show him how to do it this term.
00:53:07.000 So that's all we have to hope.
00:53:09.000 It's a sliver of hope.
00:53:11.000 That's all people have now.
00:53:12.000 But what people really need to do to come is workers, just like what happened on Staten Island, workers need to wake up like the truckers did in Canada and come together.
00:53:21.000 That's how propagandized people are in America.
00:53:24.000 The greatest trick of propaganda is to make you think you're not propagandized.
00:53:29.000 That's the beauty.
00:53:30.000 They don't see it.
00:53:31.000 They think propaganda is what happens in China or what happens in Russia.
00:53:34.000 They don't realize that we're so propagandized in America, we can't tell the difference between
00:53:38.000 a Nazi and a freedom fighter.
00:53:41.000 We look at the freedom fighters, the truckers in Canada, we call them Nazis.
00:53:45.000 We look at the Nazis in Ukraine and we call them freedom fighters.
00:53:48.000 That's how backwards and upside down we are in the United States right now.
00:53:52.000 And that's why the United States looks the way it is.
00:53:54.000 Why workers are living paycheck to paycheck, can't afford their own housing, go bankrupt when they get sick, and people are living under every bridge.
00:54:02.000 This is the result of the corporate takeover of your... You know, that's the funny thing.
00:54:06.000 They go, well, you know, January 6 undermined our democracy.
00:54:09.000 I've had people say that to me.
00:54:11.000 January 6 undermined our democracy.
00:54:13.000 That's adorable, because you don't live in a democracy.
00:54:15.000 You live in an oligarchy.
00:54:17.000 Your democracy was stolen from you decades ago by corporations, which is why workers haven't had a raise since 1980.
00:54:22.000 And when are you going to get pissed off about that?
00:54:25.000 The answer is never, unless the guy on the television tells them to get pissed off.
00:54:29.000 Well, I'm on the television now, and I'm telling them to get pissed off about that, and we need more people with that message.
00:54:36.000 On Locals, one of my favorite assets that we make for you guys is Russell Brand's stand-up breakdown.
00:54:41.000 Since the beginning of this, I've been thinking about and talking about George Carlin a whole bunch and some of his great, informative, almost foundational artifacts of stand-up comedy.
00:54:51.000 Here is one of my favorite pieces of George Carlin.
00:54:54.000 I know you love it too, because you lot are always using it in the comments, always citing him and quoting him.
00:54:59.000 Have a look at this.
00:54:59.000 If you're not on Awaken Wonder yet, consider becoming one.
00:55:02.000 You get a month free.
00:55:03.000 There's details of how to do it in the chat right now.
00:55:07.000 It's called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.
00:55:12.000 And they end on yet another classic quotation.
00:55:16.000 What a marvellous piece of stand-up.
00:55:17.000 That should be shown in schools.
00:55:19.000 It won't be, of course, because in schools now, as always, they want you to be compliant and obedient and captured, spellbound and malleable.
00:55:29.000 exactly the values that George Carlin stood against, articulated so beautifully.
00:55:35.000 There's a magical elixir that emerges, I think, when you blend together imperialism
00:55:46.000 with consumerism.
00:55:49.000 The level of propaganda you're talking about, the ability of search engines like Google and social media platforms with the exception of Rumble and X to manage the information in the manner that they do, that reaches most people, that most people live now in a kind of It's a peculiar and cellular reality, it seems to me at least.
00:56:08.000 I don't live in your country but I feel when I'm here that there is a kind of a capture has taken place that prohibits the unity that you advocate for so eloquently.
00:56:19.000 I was in a mall yesterday in Atlanta and it was all fine brands, real beautiful kind of mall.
00:56:26.000 And classical music was playing right loud too, but it was more clockwork orange than soothing.
00:56:32.000 It was kind of a bludgeoning classical music rather than an uplifting.
00:56:36.000 I had to use a restroom when I was there, and in spite of the sort of sanitary and immaculate nature of the mall itself, when I went to the bathroom, Jimmy, it was like a jail.
00:56:46.000 It was like the toilet in a jail.
00:56:48.000 Like the door stops there and ends there.
00:56:51.000 Cut off, you might be wearing a sort of an aluminium or aluminium belt to sort of cover yourself as you squat in there.
00:56:58.000 It was like some sort of unidentifiable effluvia splattered on the floor.
00:57:03.000 I felt like this is what they think of us really.
00:57:07.000 You know, out front it's all branding and logos and opportunity and choice, but when you have to do something functional and necessary, animal and human and part of life, they just herd you in like an animal with no expense afforded.
00:57:23.000 This is what I feel like we're living in here, like that people don't know they're propagandized because the propaganda is so beautiful and varied, as has been observed before, I think, by your great George Carlin, you know, or any kind of bagel you want, but two political parties.
00:57:41.000 And this is it's reached a condition now that is only The only hope offered is because they appear to be in some liminal space when it comes to the control of information.
00:57:58.000 Our conversation began with you talking about Brexit and Trump, both of which it seems at the time were informed by nationalism.
00:58:06.000 But nationalism is an understandable response to globalism.
00:58:09.000 And nationalism, if it's not grounded in exclusivity and bigotry when it comes to ethnicity and culture,
00:58:17.000 for example, the UK, it's pretty obvious what the history of the UK is,
00:58:21.000 pretty obvious what the kind of culture that would organically emerge out of that would be.
00:58:26.000 And your country, which has always been the celebrated melting pot, a nation of immigrants,
00:58:31.000 aside from, of course, the native people that are already here and the complexity of slavery.
00:58:35.000 The idea that American nationalism could be inclusive culturally, could be inclusive racially, that too is a... and indeed that we are all on one planet together when you have a kind of a cosmic and spiritual perspective on that.
00:58:51.000 Seems like it could unlock something through the miracle of the communication we're afforded that could be a genuine threat.
00:58:57.000 I spoke to the other guy that started Wikileaks.
00:58:59.000 I bet you've had him on.
00:59:00.000 There's the main one that gets the credit, Jimmy Whale.
00:59:02.000 And then there's some sort of dude in the background who's angry about Wikileaks now.
00:59:06.000 And he says, like, you know, unified by decentralized...
00:59:10.000 Oh yeah, Wikipedia, that is what I mean.
00:59:12.000 Yeah, I mean Wikipedia, thank you.
00:59:14.000 Like, him, that guy, he said the phrase, decentralised but unified.
00:59:19.000 And that's what I feel would be afforded if people were willing to come together on the basis of issues.
00:59:25.000 Do we want Big Pharma having that much power?
00:59:27.000 Do we want the military industrial complex having that much power?
00:59:29.000 Do we want these endless wars?
00:59:30.000 Do you want to live in poverty?
00:59:31.000 Do you want to live in like... Once the issues are sort of moved back to the centre, you can't have this sort of mad glistening spectacle That benefits from our continual division.
00:59:42.000 And I do think that even something like this that we've participated in, Rescue the Republic, which I hope has gone well and people will have seen now, it does offer us a kind of opportunity for unity that allows us to say, well, you know, yeah, you might have this religion or this purview or this aspect of identity that's important to you, but this is what you've got to oppose.
01:00:04.000 And like that minute when you said, Occupy and Tea Party coming together, that's it, it's over.
01:00:09.000 And then suddenly Black Rock and State Street and deep state bureaucracies are in serious trouble if people were to recognise that power.
01:00:17.000 I thought for a while there's no political equivalent, for obvious reasons, of say Uber or Airbnb, like aggregating things.
01:00:26.000 Hey, all these people could be renting rooms in their apartment.
01:00:29.000 Everyone could just drive a car and we could aggregate, you know, because these are for-profit organizations or whatever.
01:00:34.000 But the technology suggests that states and towns and cities and nations could be run with mass decentralization, reduction in state power, ability to oppose corporate power.
01:00:45.000 Of course, the will is not there, and the spaces where such things might be discussed have been increasingly controlled.
01:00:52.000 Seems almost like a throwback that George Soros' Purchasing, you know, 300 radio stations and Bill Gates is investing hundreds of millions in media.
01:01:00.000 But the control of media space is still, it seems, totally significant, isn't it?
01:01:05.000 It's 100% significant.
01:01:07.000 And it looks, just look how they're, so another great way that the establishment divides people is through immigration, unfettered immigration and open borders.
01:01:16.000 And you know, but in 2015, Bernie Sanders used to say that was a Koch brothers trick, that they wanted open borders to suppress the wages of workers, which of course they do.
01:01:24.000 So if there's a tight labor market, they want to flood the country with immigrants, but it's even more nefarious than that.
01:01:31.000 Like, so this latest thing that's happened was with the Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, which is where JD Vance is from Ohio.
01:01:37.000 And so They want you to be angry at the immigrants.
01:01:42.000 What we used to do is we used to outsource our jobs.
01:01:44.000 We used to take good jobs, turn them into shitty paying jobs, and export them to third world countries.
01:01:50.000 But now what we're doing is we're just bringing in the poor people right into our own country to take the jobs and suppress them.
01:01:56.000 There used to be $24-$25 an hour jobs in Springfield.
01:02:00.000 Now they're down to $20.
01:02:00.000 They take them with benefits.
01:02:02.000 They take the benefits away.
01:02:04.000 They make them $20 an hour job.
01:02:05.000 They turn them over to a temp agency who takes $5 off the top of that.
01:02:09.000 So now you have poor, desperate people working for $15 an hour.
01:02:13.000 And how did they become poor, desperate people?
01:02:16.000 Well, through imperialism.
01:02:17.000 That's the part of the story that the corporate media will never tell you.
01:02:22.000 How do those people from Haiti become so desperate for low-paying jobs?
01:02:25.000 They want to leave their own country and come to the middle of nowhere to do a job at a factory.
01:02:30.000 Because the United States have been occupying and decimating that country since the early 1900s.
01:02:37.000 Right now, currently, we're paying Kenya $100 million to send a bunch of thugs over to Haiti to suppress because now the militias that are on the ground are realizing they're starting to coalesce to come together to overthrow the puppet government that the United States installed in Haiti, and so we can't have that.
01:02:57.000 So literally we paid Kenya, their corrupt government, $100 million to send thugs, their military,
01:03:05.000 over to Haiti to keep the people divided, suppress those people from coming together and rising up.
01:03:11.000 That's why Haitians are desperate.
01:03:13.000 Why are Venezuelans coming here?
01:03:15.000 Why do we have all the people?
01:03:16.000 So the trick is they want you to be angry at the immigrant.
01:03:20.000 They want poor working people to be angrier at poorer, more desperate people, at immigrants.
01:03:26.000 So what I always tell people, if you find yourself being angry at someone lower on the economic ladder than you, it's a good chance you're being manipulated by someone higher on the economic ladder than you.
01:03:37.000 Why are Venezuelans poor?
01:03:38.000 Why have 7 million Venezuelans left their own country?
01:03:41.000 Many of them come here.
01:03:42.000 Because we've been sanctioning the hell out of that country.
01:03:45.000 Why?
01:03:45.000 Because there's more oil in Venezuela than there is in Saudi Arabia.
01:03:49.000 And once I found that out, I knew it was just a matter of time before we were going to bring democracy to Venezuela.
01:03:54.000 And that's exactly what they do it under the guise of.
01:03:57.000 That's what Juan Guaido was all about.
01:03:59.000 Trump had him at the State of the Union address.
01:04:01.000 He's trying to recognize that Juan Guaido is the leader of Venezuela, not Maduro.
01:04:06.000 I try to tell people the only reason you have an opinion about an election in Venezuela is because the establishment wants you to have an opinion and they want you to have that opinion that that wasn't a real election.
01:04:16.000 Really?
01:04:17.000 So who?
01:04:18.000 Venezuela could work out their own problem.
01:04:20.000 The only reason you have an opinion and you want to go smash those communists is because you've been manipulated by propaganda that comes from the economic hitmen billionaires in the West Through their corporate-owned media to make you have an opinion, so when they go into Venezuela and steal their natural resources, you think they're doing it for the help of the people.
01:04:41.000 Just like they said we were helping the people in Iraq.
01:04:43.000 Just like they said we were helping the people in Libya.
01:04:45.000 Just like they said we were helping the people in Syria.
01:04:47.000 Just like they said we were helping the people in Afghanistan.
01:04:50.000 Just like they say we're helping the people in Ukraine.
01:04:52.000 We ain't helping people.
01:04:53.000 If they wanted to help people, they would start with the people right outside their front fucking door.
01:04:57.000 But they don't.
01:04:58.000 They don't care that all the workers can't afford a house.
01:05:01.000 They live paycheck to paycheck.
01:05:02.000 They go bankrupt when they get sick and they can't afford education.
01:05:06.000 If they give it, they don't give a shit.
01:05:08.000 About anybody.
01:05:09.000 So that's what people need to wake up to.
01:05:10.000 Don't be angry at the immigrant.
01:05:12.000 Be angry at the system, the imperialistic system that is run by economic hitmen, billionaires, and has always been run that way for over a hundred years in the West.
01:05:22.000 That's what you should be angry at.
01:05:23.000 Why don't we stop saying, hey, if Cuba's government and their communist government is so bad, why do we have to sanction the shit out of it?
01:05:30.000 Why can't it just collapse on its own?
01:05:33.000 Same thing with Venezuela.
01:05:34.000 If their way of doing things, if their socialism is so bad, why do we have to sanction the shit out of it?
01:05:40.000 And, well, the reason why we sanction them is to make people desperate, so to hurt regular people, so then they become so desperate that they overthrow their government, and who's they gonna overthrow?
01:05:51.000 Well, then the CIA floods that country with billions of dollars to tell them who to overthrow, and then they can install a puppet, and that's the way the world works, and that's what people need to understand.
01:06:01.000 Yeah, Jimmy Dore!
01:06:02.000 Thank you for being Jimmy Dore!
