00:00:00.000 Hello, you awakening wonders.

00:00:01.000 Thanks so much for joining us for Stay Free with Russell Brand on yet another historic day.

00:00:08.000 These historic days keep coming.

00:00:10.000 We are obviously watching the unfolding events at the trial of Donald Trump.

00:00:17.000 In fact, we've got someone on the scene, Robert Sherman.

00:00:19.000 He's not actually our reporter, is he, Gareth?

00:00:21.000 No, he's from News Nation.

00:00:23.000 We've nicked one.

00:00:24.000 We're using the mainstream media.

00:00:26.000 We're bringing them over to us, aren't we?

00:00:27.000 We're luring them over one by one.

00:00:28.000 Every single day, we're going to take another mainstream figure and corrupt them into our radical anti-establishment ways.

00:00:35.000 And today it's going to be Robert Sherman, who's one of those four to one media folk that outnumber the anticipated members of the public at the scene.

00:00:45.000 Sorry I'm late today.

00:00:46.000 I've got had to do with some personal stuff, but I'm dealing with that now.

00:00:49.000 So I'm here to talk about what's really important.

00:00:52.000 You haven't been advising Trump, have you?

00:00:54.000 I've been giving him a little bit of advice and now I can focus on my real priority, ensuring that we are distracted from the corruption that establishment power enshrines continually and making sure that no meaningful change can ever be implemented by people coming together.

00:01:10.000 Let's have a look now.

00:01:11.000 Do you know, later we're going to be talking to presidential candidate Marianne Williamson. 0.88

00:01:15.000 She's coming on the show.

00:01:16.000 I'll be talking to her about, is she an evolution of Trump?

00:01:20.000 Is she the anti-Trump?

00:01:21.000 We've got a fantastic presentation on Hillary Clinton running again.

00:01:25.000 You're going to enjoy that.

00:01:27.000 It's fantastic stuff.

00:01:28.000 But let's have a look now at how Fox News are reporting the Trump situation.

00:01:33.000 Plus, we're going to be going live looking at mainstream media.

00:01:35.000 If you're watching this on YouTube, You can watch this bit on YouTube for about 15 minutes.

00:01:39.000 Then we click over to being exclusively on Rumble simply so that we can attack the establishment more elaborately, more specifically, more particularly without fear of censorship or strikes or any of that stuff.

00:01:51.000 So if you're watching us on YouTube, there's a link in the description.

00:01:53.000 You can join us on Rumble.

00:01:54.000 You can even become a member of our community where people say sort of delightful things.

00:01:57.000 Like sometimes people are just posting like hearts and things like that, but there's a lot of radical discourse on there.

00:02:04.000 Sometimes they talk about things that's not even to do with us.

00:02:07.000 That I don't like.

00:02:07.000 Let's see how the mainstream media in the form of Fox News are reporting current events.

00:02:15.000 Well there is a ton of activity here in Lower Manhattan outside of the courthouse.

00:02:20.000 A lot of police officers and a lot of reporters looking to cover this historic story.

00:02:26.000 I'm going to ask my photographer Phil here to pan and zoom in closer to the scene right across or right down the street.

00:02:33.000 Pan right into.

00:02:34.000 Why do we need to know Phil's name?

00:02:35.000 Why are you personalizing Phil?

00:02:37.000 All the while we're watching this, we think on Stay Free Media, What we think is significant are the stories that are not being told while this one is being told.

00:02:46.000 It's definitely a fascinating story because it's, I suppose, a political trial dressed up as a legal one.

00:02:53.000 I think even if you loathe Trump, you would accept that this isn't a case about, he did what with campaign funds?

00:02:59.000 That's one of our proudest traditions.

00:03:01.000 How are we supposed to build administrations that successively drone children in foreign lands and call it rational when people are misappropriating campaign funds?

00:03:10.000 How are we to find ways of having endless war to keep the military-industrial complex going with people misspending campaign funds?

00:03:18.000 How is it possible that when there's a financial crash the richest interests in the world somehow seem to benefit and ordinary people lose their homes when Donald Trump is misusing campaign funds?

00:03:28.000 How can we have a pandemic that whatever else it does didn't do made sure the pharmaceutical industry who spent a

00:03:33.000 considerable amount of money on lobbying became richer than ever before if

00:03:38.000 Donald Trump keeps misusing his campaign fund. Stormzy Daniels, fury be at

00:03:44.000 It's whatever it is about is not about that is it?

00:03:44.000 thee!

00:03:48.000 It's not about, hey, the law, the precious law, the law designed to enshrine corruption, the law designed to protect elites, the very laws that enable people to rob you en masse.

00:04:00.000 They have to be protected.

00:04:02.000 The law is not sacred.

00:04:04.000 The law is a tool of the powerful.

00:04:06.000 Whether Donald Trump goes to prison like sweet Lord Jesus before him or not, because that's a reference to the Marjorie Taylor Greene interview in a minute.

00:04:14.000 You're going to love that.

00:04:15.000 You're going to stay.

00:04:16.000 You've got to stay for that.

00:04:17.000 Or doesn't?

00:04:20.000 That doesn't change the diagnosis of the global legal situation in One Iota.

00:04:25.000 Let's have a look at Phil's camera work on Fox News and then I reckon get ready with the live stuff.

00:04:30.000 I'm really fascinated to see the live stuff.

00:04:32.000 You will see over there just this mob of reporters, local, international and national media looking to cover this story of global significance.

00:04:32.000 from us.

00:04:41.000 People are standing shoulder to shoulder.

00:04:43.000 It's hard to imagine squeezing another camera in between all of those people.

00:04:48.000 But Would you imagine that?

00:04:50.000 It's hard to imagine it, but I will.

00:04:52.000 Try, though, for a second.

00:04:53.000 Phil, you imagine it.

00:04:54.000 Why don't we, if we both imagine it hard enough, maybe if it was a tiny camera and a mouse reporter, they could film the more seen aspects of this case.

00:05:02.000 So let's have a look what's going on right now on the mainstream.

00:05:05.000 Is it CNN?

00:05:06.000 Is it MSNBC?

00:05:07.000 What mainstream media outlet are we going to live right now?

00:05:10.000 It's CNN.

00:05:11.000 Let's see what they're saying.

00:05:12.000 I think that the reason he didn't come up immediately to turn himself in was the Secret Service wanted time.

00:05:18.000 Is that accurate?

00:05:20.000 No, it's not.

00:05:21.000 It's not accurate whatsoever.

00:05:22.000 It's nonsensical.

00:05:23.000 Anderson Cooper, the grandeur, the grandiosity, the magnificent, the pushing shot from on high.

00:05:30.000 The grammar of the news at this time, the armed guards, everything.

00:05:35.000 Whether you are a pro-Trump person or an anti-Trump person, Well, they're all pro-Trump in this case.

00:05:41.000 The media make a lot of money out of this.

00:05:43.000 Their ratings are going through the roof, exactly as when he was president.

00:05:46.000 They're making a lot of money.

00:05:48.000 Whoever purports to not like Trump, they are making a significant amount of money.

00:05:52.000 Stay free with Russell Brand.

00:05:54.000 See it first on Rumble.

00:05:55.000 What I love about Trump is the ad libs.

00:05:58.000 His willingness to pursue tangential, ancillary and discursive thoughts.

00:06:03.000 That is the kind of populist rhetoric that reaches people.

00:06:06.000 It's his ability to communicate like that and to, from an anti-establishment platform, make points that cannot be addressed by mainstream systemic opposition.

00:06:16.000 That is why I'm very excited To talk to presidential candidate, or at least she's standing for the presidency or the leadership of the Democratic Party, Marianne Williamson.

00:06:27.000 Marianne and I have met several times.

00:06:28.000 She's a fantastic author.

00:06:29.000 She was a presidential candidate last time around. 1.00

00:06:32.000 She's a presidential candidate once more. 0.99

00:06:35.000 And Marianne, it's so lovely to see you.

00:06:36.000 Thanks for joining us.

00:06:38.000 What I wanted to say is that last time around, I think where you were particularly effective was recognizing The Democrats were not addressing the kind of psychic charge and potency of Donald Trump because they essentially are tied to the same corporate interests that have undergirded mainstream politics for a long time.

00:06:58.000 Why do you think that Trump is once more at the forefront of the news cycle?

00:07:01.000 What does that tell us about the failings of the Democratic Party?

00:07:04.000 And what does it tell us about the political landscape more broadly?

00:07:06.000 That Trump continues to dominate, supported essentially by both sides, particularly from a media perspective because They are all he talks about and how are you going to penetrate that space and give people hope that there's an alternative to Donald Trump acknowledging that the reason that Donald Trump is so successful and effective is because of the centralized corruption that I'm sure that you would oppose also.

00:07:27.000 I don't disagree with your analysis.

00:07:28.000 So, this is the deal.

00:07:30.000 Many people thought that if we could only defeat Trump in 2020, that the problems would be over.

00:07:36.000 And we now realize that it was more like a tumor that had already metastasized.

00:07:41.000 There's this plague of hatred.

00:07:43.000 So many of the darkest aspects of American consciousness that were harnessed by him for political purposes had already metastasized, and they have not gone away.

00:07:54.000 But we have to go back to what made this country so vulnerable to him to begin with.

00:07:58.000 And that has to do with the fact that, as Franklin Roosevelt said, we don't have to worry about a fascist takeover as long as democracy delivers on its blessings.

00:08:07.000 This country should never have been so vulnerable to a man like Donald Trump.

00:08:11.000 We were so vulnerable in large part because democracy had not.

00:08:15.000 If democracy was delivering on its blessings, then the average American would have the same things that the average European And every other advanced European nation has, such as universal healthcare, such as a guaranteed livable wage, such as easy access to a higher education, such as free childcare, such as paternity and maternity leave.

00:08:35.000 So, our immune system was so weakened because of this corruption—neoliberalism, trickle-down economics, whatever you want to call it—when you have 80 percent of people in a country Who are living—60 percent living paycheck to paycheck, 80 percent of Americans living with chronic economic struggle.

00:08:54.000 Then that forms a kind of Petri dish, out of which all manner of personal and societal dysfunction is inevitable, whether it's Donald Trump or anyone else.

00:09:03.000 Now, since this last election—and I'm very glad that he was defeated in 2020—but we have not provided the massive infusion of economic hope and opportunity to the American people.

00:09:15.000 that will guarantee that we will not be vulnerable to him in 2024.

00:09:20.000 And that's why an agenda that does not just present an alleviation of economic stress,

00:09:26.000 but which actually proposes an economic U-turn in this country, actually proposes fundamental

00:09:30.000 economic reform, is not only the way to beat him in 2024, but it's also the way to repair

00:09:36.000 this country.

00:09:37.000 A lot of people watching this right now will think that Donald Trump is absolutely fantastic.

00:09:42.000 That Donald Trump is the solution.

00:09:44.000 That Donald Trump wants to drain the swamp.

00:09:47.000 That Donald Trump speaks for them.

00:09:48.000 You know that Donald Trump's success was significantly built on blue-collar votes.

00:09:53.000 That he experienced Great success in poor communities.

00:09:57.000 A lot of people watching this right now, I know, will not want to hear Donald Trump attacked.

00:10:02.000 What I try to offer here is the opportunity to address the conditions that are not being addressed by either side.

00:10:10.000 That Biden promised to rein in Big Pharma, then offered a mealy-mouthed, compromised bill that will not meaningfully impact the pharmaceutical industry at all.

00:10:21.000 That no one is talking about a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia and in fact it's apparent that that process was possibly interrupted.

00:10:30.000 What I feel like, even as a person that lives in Europe, things ain't so great here either.

00:10:35.000 We similarly toil under centralised government that appear to operate on behalf of corporate interests rather than the people that put them into power.

00:10:43.000 sure we might have some comparative compromises and some little pieces of welfare here or

00:10:49.000 there that you might think were a reflection of a more enlightened governmental perspective.

00:10:54.000 But it's the same deal basically. Corporate interest set the deal. We basically think

00:10:59.000 politicians are corrupt. They got second jobs. They own shares in this or that. They're connected

00:11:03.000 to hedge funds.

00:11:04.000 And Marianne, what I think is required is a kind of radicalism in the political conversation,

00:11:10.000 a kind of boldness of vision that now we have seen that we can certainly assess what Trump

00:11:17.000 did in office and the failings and where he plainly administered on behalf of economic

00:11:22.000 elites. But we have to accept That since then, Biden said to his donors, as you are obviously aware, you've got nothing to worry about with me in office.

00:11:32.000 You know that he's funded by Big Tech, Wall Street, Big Pharma, or at least the Democrat Party largely are.

00:11:37.000 So how, from within this system, do you ever make significant changes?

00:11:42.000 What is your agenda that would appeal to people that would happily vote for Donald Trump because of his anti-establishment stance?

00:11:48.000 Well, in 2016, Donald Trump said to the American people, your rage is legitimate.

00:11:54.000 And he was correct.

00:11:55.000 And that's the same thing that Bernie Sanders said.

00:11:57.000 Both of them told the American people, your pain is valid, your anger about it, you are living at the effect of a rigged economic system.

00:12:07.000 The difference is that Donald Trump was saying it because he was master of the art of the deal.

00:12:12.000 He knew it's what people needed—wanted to hear.

00:12:14.000 Bernie Sanders actually meant it.

00:12:16.000 So, many—yes, he spoke to people, as did Bernie.

00:12:19.000 But once he got into office, I think a lot of those people have seen how conned they were by the things that he said.

00:12:25.000 There is a radicalism, a radicalism the way that Franklin Roosevelt said.

00:12:29.000 He said, I feel we must become fairly radical for a generation.

00:12:32.000 You're right.

00:12:33.000 It's—in my country, it would be considered a radical Americanism, that it would be a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

00:12:39.000 Rather than a government of the corporations, by the corporations and for the corporations.

00:12:44.000 Now, I'm concerned, as you are, that the Democratic Party is trying to have it both ways.

00:12:49.000 The Democratic Party sees people—and I don't want to say the Democratic Party—the Democratic establishment elite sees the pain and wants to address it on the periphery, but they, no more than the Republicans sometimes, are willing to challenge the underlying corporate forces that make the return of that pain always inevitable.

00:13:06.000 To that extent, I am the candidate who is saying much of what you're saying, and it's also why the Democratic corporate elite does not want it.

00:13:15.000 Now, this is the deal.

00:13:16.000 When you ask, how are you going to break through, history has never been made by people who say that it can't be done.

00:13:23.000 You know, I look at it a lot like the Berlin Wall.

00:13:26.000 If you ask, well, what made the Berlin Wall fall?

00:13:28.000 Well, if you look at it on the outside, somebody made a phone call to somebody else, and it was misunderstood, and then they called the gate, and then they opened the gate.

00:13:36.000 But that's not what really made the Berlin Wall fall.

00:13:38.000 What really made is just the thousands and thousands and thousands of efforts made.

00:13:43.000 You just keep pushing.

00:13:45.000 You know, I saw somebody on television the other day talking about how we're going to bring down an unjust system, the economic and political system that you're talking about.

00:13:55.000 And he said somebody is going to break through.

00:13:58.000 We don't have time to think about, well, would this person do it?

00:14:01.000 Would that do it?

00:14:02.000 All of it's going to do it.

00:14:03.000 Every conversation, every podcast, every labor effort, every election of a progressive, you just keep pushing, you just keep pushing.

00:14:10.000 To me, if we go into cynicism, if we go into no, it can't be done, that's acquiescing to the system.

00:14:18.000 And I think we just need to keep pushing and I believe with all my heart somebody is going to push a breakthrough and what point of breakthrough it's going to be is not what's as relevant as the fact that all of us just need to keep pushing and whatever we can way we can and supporting other people who are doing it too.

00:14:32.000 I agree with you, and I'm excited by you as a candidate, as you know, because of your spiritual beliefs and credentials and your optimism and your credentials as a teacher, Marianne.

00:14:43.000 We spoke to Brianna Joy Gray yesterday, who was prominent in Bernie's campaigning.

00:14:49.000 And you know, you know, and I know that Bernie fell fail of where he was stiffed by rigged systems within the Democrat Party, the elite that you described.

00:14:59.000 And Bernie, of course, was a longstanding independent candidate before aligning with the Democrats.

00:15:04.000 Do you not think that the sort of popular support being garnered by people Like whether it's the Tea Party, Libertarian Right, perhaps in the great form of Donald Trump, or figures like Bernie with his kind of populist support.

00:15:16.000 These are ultimately independent style candidates that are sort of operating within the party system.

00:15:22.000 Do you not think that there might be a future for a sort of a confederacy or alliance at least, if that's an incendiary word, of independent of independent candidates challenging systemic corruption that can incorporate both tradition, the traditional values typically enshrined by their republican right and progressive values, shall we call them, that are seen within the social justice movement.

00:15:48.000 Because I feel like, you know, I am optimistic, but I feel that new alliances, tolerance, open-heartedness are going to have to be embraced if we are going to confront the sort of entrenching systemic corporate interests that seem very difficult to Well, I think that what you're describing is possible, but it hasn't happened yet.

00:16:08.000 So at this moment, we have to go with what is, and every person has to go with where they feel they can help the breakthrough happen in the circumstances that now exist.

00:16:17.000 I think you're right.

00:16:18.000 Thanks, Marianne.

00:16:18.000 What about in the world of mental health, big pharma, It requires that 40 million Americans stay on antidepressants, 4 in 10 lobbying dollars go to healthcare or food interests, and it seems that there's some corollary between those two things.

00:16:31.000 How can you disrupt a system with so much financial investment in it and with so much systemic support?

00:16:38.000 Well, it shouldn't be a fringe or radical thing to point out that Americans appear to be overmedicated.

00:16:44.000 And yet I know from my campaign last time, boy, you get anywhere near anything like that.

00:16:50.000 And that's when they come after you.

00:16:52.000 And I know they came after me last time.

00:16:53.000 They've already come after me this time.

00:16:55.000 What we have is a matrix, a corporate matrix.

00:16:58.000 That's why it's often called a corporatocracy.

00:17:00.000 Basically, it's a reversion to an aristocratic system.

00:17:02.000 It's insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, big food, big agriculture, big

00:17:07.000 chemical companies, gun manufacturers, big oil and defense contractors.

00:17:11.000 And as long as we have a profit-based healthcare system, as long as we have a profit-based—basically,

00:17:16.000 journalism in this country—as long as we have profit-based foreign policy, then this

00:17:21.000 situation is going to be sitting on top of us.

00:17:26.000 They have a grip.

00:17:27.000 They are holding the U.S. government hostage.

00:17:29.000 And our government, therefore, is more of a system of legalized bribery.

00:17:33.000 But you have to call them on it every day.

00:17:35.000 Everywhere you can, including Big Pharma.

00:17:37.000 And the ultimate answer, the ultimate victory is going to be when enough people wake up and realize how systemically disinformed we are.

00:17:48.000 We are mentally trained to expect too little.

00:17:54.000 We are mentally trained, and Big Pharma is a perfect example.

00:17:57.000 Most people who are listening right now, if they live in the United States, know somebody, if they're not already somebody, rationing their insulin, going to Mexico or going to Canada to get their insulin.

00:18:10.000 Stop thinking these people always have your best interests at heart.

00:18:14.000 Obviously, there are things done by big pharmaceutical companies that all of us are grateful for, but they are predatory in too many cases, creating profit centers, as we know they did with the opioid crisis.

00:18:28.000 And we should not be so naive as to think they're not doing with any other area.

00:18:33.000 Thank you, Marianne.

00:18:34.000 If you're watching us on YouTube right now, we're going to go exclusively live onto Rumble while I ask Marianne, if she has the grace to allow it, to answer one more question on war and whether or not now the Democrat Party are officially the party of war co-opted by military-industrial-complex interests.

00:18:51.000 I'm not going to ask Marianne that on YouTube with all the incumbent risks.

00:18:55.000 That's a question I can only ask in the In the free speech domain, that is Rumble.

00:19:00.000 Click the link in the description and join us there.

00:19:02.000 Marianne, what do you feel about the Democrat Party's stance on war?

00:19:05.000 What do you think when Bernie Sanders votes with the party on funding ongoing wars?

00:19:12.000 What's your personal approach?

00:19:14.000 Well, when it comes to our $858 billion defense budget, both parties are equally bought by these companies.

00:19:22.000 Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Boeing and so forth, they don't care if you're a Republican or a Democrat.

00:19:26.000 They're going to make sure that they donate to your campaigns, so they have you in their pocket.

00:19:31.000 And so, it's not about is it the Republicans or is it the Democrats.

00:19:35.000 It's clearly undue influence by the military-industrial complex on our foreign policy.

00:19:42.000 Marianne, thank you so much for joining us.

00:19:44.000 It's fantastic to see you again.

00:19:45.000 You can follow Marianne's work and campaign by going to marianne2024.com.

00:19:49.000 I suggest you do that to inform yourself about the possibilities of a radical candidate from the Democrat Party.

00:19:56.000 Marianne, thanks for joining us.

00:19:57.000 Oh, it's great to see you.

00:19:58.000 It's lovely to have your time.

00:19:59.000 Thank you very much.

00:20:00.000 Hey, so listen, I don't know if I guess, I guess we're going to wrap up for today, but tomorrow, what will have happened?

00:20:06.000 Tomorrow, will he have been arraigned then?

00:20:08.000 I think so.

00:20:08.000 We'll have all the details of the charges.

00:20:10.000 After he's been arraigned, will that be better?

00:20:12.000 We'll know all of the charges tomorrow.

00:20:14.000 This says to be 32.

00:20:14.000 We'll be talking about that.

00:20:16.000 When we had Brianna Joy Gray on yesterday, she said that there's that one out of Georgia that's a bit more heavy, maybe, about sort of meddling with something or whatever, wasn't it?

00:20:26.000 Election results, yeah.

00:20:27.000 Yeah, the alleged rigging of elections.

00:20:30.000 Certainly that sort of thing shouldn't be going on.

00:20:31.000 Not from any party at any time, right kids?

00:20:35.000 We've also got Adam Andrzejewski from Open The Books.

00:20:38.000 You're going to love this guy.

00:20:39.000 If you've not seen him on our show before, what he does is he bothers people until they give him documents and then reveals what's in them.

00:20:46.000 He troubles them, doesn't he?

00:20:46.000 He wears a little bow tie.

00:20:47.000 He's an amazing guy.

00:20:48.000 Calls me Mr Brand.

00:20:49.000 It's brilliant.

00:20:50.000 He's going to tell us about that 180 grand cancer drug that Biden, all the while pretending to care about cancer and everything, literally there's administration or legislation in place, the Bayh-Dole Act, where he could just stop that and help people suffering from cancer to get their drugs at a reasonable price.

00:21:05.000 You simply don't use it.

00:21:06.000 Why?

00:21:07.000 Because he's a stooge of the system, you know that already.

00:21:10.000 Guys, I hope you're enjoying this coverage.

00:21:12.000 I wish you'd join us on Locals where you can be a deep down member of our community, joining this frivolity and fun like the people are right now.

00:21:20.000 Let's just see what they're saying there before we leave you till tomorrow.

00:21:23.000 Oh look at this, Killary Clinton, yeah, Ashella, I repel bad for Trumpster.

00:21:28.000 Barry John Fox, it's great, keep going till the arraignment is over.

00:21:32.000 This is history in real time, some people just don't want us to go.

00:21:35.000 Just say no to voter fraud, says Velody.

00:21:37.000 Deccanu, thank you so much guys, you're awesome, I think she's talking about us.

00:21:41.000 So what do you want to do? I mean we can't just stay here forever, waiting for a man to be arraigned.

00:21:45.000 That's what they're doing.

00:21:46.000 They're just going to wait there, in the streets.

00:21:49.000 But what you should know is it's mostly media that's down there.

00:21:54.000 The process of observing the spectacle is the spectacle.

00:21:58.000 That's your take home today.

00:22:00.000 Go and read some Baudrillard and unpack that.

00:22:04.000 The spectacle is generating itself and as long as you're trapped within its prismic inauthenticity, You will not get the pure white light of truth.

00:22:13.000 And I mean white transcendent of all other colours, holding all colours, holding all of us together.

00:22:18.000 Sign up to Locals, you get a weekly meditation out of me.

00:22:21.000 Also, you get access to live podcast recordings.

00:22:23.000 You can join us here.

00:22:24.000 Anyway, we'll see you tomorrow for yet more history.

00:22:26.000 Every day is a historic day.

00:22:27.000 Unprecedented.

00:22:28.000 It's unprecedented.

00:22:29.000 Every day is unprecedented.

00:22:30.000 Every day is historic.

00:22:32.000 Join us tomorrow, not for more of the same, for more of the unprecedented and more of the historic and more of the different.

00:22:38.000 Until then, stay free.
