In this episode, we discuss the ruling by the Colorado Supreme Court that prevents Donald Trump from running for president, and the implications for the future. We also have a live shot of the RUMBLE chat with Ignates Miles from the Awakened Wonder chat, where he talks about Elon Musk and why he thinks Donald Trump should have been allowed to run for president.

00:03:40.000We'll be unpacking it in more detail over the course of the show.
00:03:44.000But, wow, in a world that requires insurrections, maybe insurrectionism oughtn't be a crime.
00:03:48.000We've got a lot more to talk to you about.
00:03:50.000It's clear now that this event has created fissures and fractures that reveal to you the true nature of American cultural life and maybe global political and cultural life.
00:04:00.000That we're no longer talking about Republicans versus Democrats.
00:04:03.000We're talking about authoritarianism versus the periphery.
00:04:06.000We're talking the center against decentralized but unified opposition.
00:04:12.000For example, RFK has come straight out and said, have we got that tweet?
00:05:40.000So, let's have a look at some of this stuff around Trump and Colorado, as well as, later on, talking about the world versus Elon Musk.
00:05:49.000Again, another story that shows you that the true dynamic, the dynamic that matters now, you awakened wonders, is establishment versus the periphery.
00:05:58.000Now, I'm not claiming that Elon Musk, as one of the world's richest people, is a sort of a renegade, but when it comes to free speech absolutism, when it comes to challenging establishment power, Yeah, he's on the right side, you'd have to say, wouldn't you?
00:06:12.000What we have now is a dynamic where the authoritarian establishment will use any means, any language required to shut down dissent.
00:06:21.000We showed you yesterday Barack Obama saying that you can't... Why is there a lightning bolt?
00:06:27.000That's the lightning bolt of the Lord!
00:06:28.000That's the sweet lightning of the truth raining down upon us, providing us the energy that we require, guys.
00:06:34.000Like how Barack Obama said that independent media must be censored because it muddies the waters, that people are losing trust in in the establishment.
00:06:44.000But of course we know there are complex reasons for people losing trust in the establishment.
00:07:07.000And we begin tonight with major breaking news.
00:07:10.000A bombshell ruling from the Colorado Supreme Court in just the last hour states that Donald Trump is disqualified from holding the office of president.
00:07:21.000And from appearing on the Republican primary ballot in that state.
00:07:24.000In a more than 200-page ruling, the court found that Trump is ineligible for the White House under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the U.S.
00:07:34.000The court found that the district court was correct in its early ruling calling the January 6th attack on the Capitol an insurrection, and that Trump, quote, engaged in that insurrection through his personal actions.
00:07:48.000This, frankly, A lot of people saying there are DDOS attacks going on on Rumble right now, that the stream is freezing, but we're going to keep transmitting.
00:08:59.000Was it an insurrection or was it a riot?
00:09:01.000If you think it was an insurrection, put I. If you think it was a riot, put R. If you think it was a protest, put P. Let me know, guys, if you think that that has been accurately assessed.
00:09:12.000Of course, Trump has addressed this ruling himself, and it's going to be one of your favourite Trumps, I think, because it's Christmas Trump.
00:09:20.000Let's have a look at Christmas Trump and have a look at the... There are literally Trump baubles on the Christmas tree.
00:09:26.000It's no wonder crooked Joe Biden and the far-left lunatics are desperate to stop us by any means necessary.
00:10:11.000The 14th amendment that's been used to legitimise this decision doesn't actually define an insurrection or spell out what it means to engage in an insurrection.
00:10:20.000So again, this is another of those stories where the language isn't clear.
00:10:24.000Remember when we were talking about hate speech?
00:10:26.000The other day in Ireland and the new laws that enable the Garda, the police there, to raid Irish folks' homes, take their computers.
00:10:34.000If they're suspected of hate speech it doesn't define what hate speech is.
00:10:39.000Presumably to grant legitimacy to a wide range of decisions.
00:10:44.000Presumably to weaponise that piece of legislation Against whatever section of the population they want to criminalise that day.
00:10:54.000And this tendency to criminalise ordinary citizens, to criminalise the public, to criminalise language, to criminalise protest, to criminalise freedom, to criminalise free thought, is one of the techniques that the establishment is continually engaging as they unleash warfare Lawfare on all of their opponents.
00:11:14.000If they can't get you in war, they'll get you with the law.
00:11:17.000Going into this story in a little more detail, Section 3 of the 14th Amendment says, oath-breaking insurrectionists can't serve as senators, representatives, or presidential electors, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States or under any state, but it doesn't mention the presidency.
00:11:35.000In a sense, it seems like this is weaponization of legislation.
00:11:39.000Do you think that is this the law or is this weaponization of the law?
00:11:45.000Put a W for weaponization and if you think this is legitimate legality, let us know.
00:11:51.000Or is it a shimmering distraction like a Trump bauble on a Trump Christmas tree?
00:12:01.000They're weaponising law enforcement for high-level election interference because we're beating them so badly in the polls.
00:12:10.000Now, predictably, Rachel Maddow and the Legacy Media have a very particular position on this, but what I would like to draw your attention to is how...
00:12:18.000Is the United States of America ever going to be unified again?
00:12:22.000Doesn't it seem increasingly likely that we're moving to a place of dissolution?
00:12:47.000There's a seriously pronounced sense of division.
00:12:50.000No longer I would argue left and right but authoritarianism versus peripheral dissenting anti-establishment voices.
00:12:57.000Here is the message of the establishment who got nearly 16,000 of you Watching us on Rumble right now.
00:13:04.000We've got to hit that 30,000 if we're ever going to get the Brand Gino, Dan Bongino, Russell Brand mashup that we are working so hard to create.
00:13:13.000That's going to be happening in January, but we've got... I don't want to be coming to Dan Bongino with like, oh Dan, we've got 150 people tuning in.
00:13:23.000That's why I'm wearing this jacket, to give yourself some legitimacy.
00:13:28.000And yeah, let me know what you think about this.
00:13:30.000This is not a crazy thing for a democracy to do.
00:13:34.000This is something that was a hallmark of post-war Germany after World War II.
00:13:38.000This is something that happened at Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil quite recently.
00:13:41.000This is something that our own Congress did in 1868, after our own civil war, specifically to preclude anybody from holding office in this country who had engaged in insurrection against this country.
00:13:53.000And so it's not unheard of, but it would be an incredible wild card.
00:14:00.000Precipitous, perspicacious and potentially deadly to suggest that this might be the kind of events that precede civil war.
00:14:10.000One justice concluded that a candidate shouldn't be disqualified under the 14th amendment if they haven't been convicted of insurrection, which is a federal crime.
00:14:19.000Trump is facing other felony charges but not insurrection in his federal election subversion case.
00:14:26.000So okay, so insurrection isn't even one of the charges.
00:14:29.000So it doesn't define what insurrection is.
00:14:39.000I believe in radical institutional change.
00:14:41.000I believe that we have to end the donor culture.
00:14:43.000I think we have to end the practice of people in Congress Investing in stocks and shares that they are themselves involved in the regulation of.
00:14:51.000I think we need radical change, radical decentralisation, federalism, democracy and sovereignty as close to the individual and the community as possible.
00:15:00.000The ability to control, govern and rule our own lives.
00:15:02.000It simply isn't natural to have centralised forces, whether they are national, international, let alone global, controlling Your lives, because we've already seen the way that that's heading.
00:15:14.000In a sense, what we're witnessing now is true resistance to those forces of corporate globalism.
00:15:20.000Let me know where you guys stand on that.
00:15:22.000Again, we're seeing the weaponization of the law and the weaponization of language, it seems, in order to prevent an anti-establishment candidate from being able to challenge centralist authoritarian interests.
00:15:34.000Yes, Vivek has come out in favour, like RFK.
00:15:38.000These kind of independent media, emergent figures that are vocally anti-establishment are of course, well not necessarily supporting Trump, Vivek is explicitly supporting Trump, but RFK is saying that the decision is appalling.
00:15:53.000So can you see that there are new Discourse is taking place now that just would have been impossible in the old legacy media model.
00:16:01.000That stuff would have been shut right down.
00:16:05.000Let me know what kind of vehicle you think Vivek's in.
00:16:07.000Here's Vivek supporting Trump saying he himself won't go on the ballot and that Ron DeSantis shouldn't be on the ballot and Nikki Haley shouldn't be on the ballot.
00:16:19.000They have just tried to bar President Trump from the Colorado ballot using an unconstitutional maneuver that is a bastardization of the 14th Amendment to our U.S.
00:16:29.000This was a provision, Section 3, that was designed to bar Confederate members, people who switched to the Confederacy, from actually being able to serve.
00:16:37.000That's very different than what's at issue here, to say the least.
00:16:42.000Greg One Love in the chat says that Whitney Webb, friend of the show, great guest, she's coming on again soon, said that there will be a DDoS attack that will prevent the election taking place.
00:16:55.000Let's watch out, that's a great prediction if it comes true and we've got it on record now were it to be the case.
00:17:04.000A lot of people saying it's taking place on an RV.
00:17:13.000A lot of people saying it might be taking place on a private jet.
00:17:19.000In a minute you see it sort of wobble.
00:17:22.000What's interesting is the strategic positioning of various political voices, allies and opponents.
00:17:29.000RFK coming out on side of anti-establishment.
00:17:32.000Coming out on the side of anti-authoritarianism, anti-establishmentism.
00:17:36.000Legacy Media and Rachel Maddow predictably, of course, endorsing this decision and saying that there's a precedent, but we know that they are interested in destabilizing and delegitimizing Trump's campaign.
00:17:48.000There's an ongoing media campaign to suggest that Trump's candidacy and eventual election would bring about old-school military dictatorship.
00:18:00.000Whereas what we are advancing is that we are already in a kind of technological dictatorship where people are just removed from ballots for rational reasons.
00:18:12.000Rationally and mobilizing the constitution, we simply have to remove this person from the ballot.
00:18:18.000In a sense, If you look at this, as it were, from 30,000 feet, like Vivec, if indeed he is on a jet, I still think RV.
00:18:25.000If you look at this from 30,000 feet, I suppose if you know what the brand is of that thing that's behind his head, you'd know.
00:18:32.000I don't know, there's a T on the end of it.
00:18:34.000Like, if you look at this from 30,000 feet, do you think that what's happened is, oh my god, there's been an insurrection, we have to get the leader of the insurrection and shut him down?
00:18:46.000Or is it more like, how do we delegitimize, destabilize, and remove Donald Trump as a candidate?
00:18:54.000Right, well there's this 14th amendment thing that says that no insurrectionist should be able to take office.
00:18:59.000It seems, doesn't it, Like, like sophistry is the word that we use, a kind of sophisticated, a sophisticated manipulative argument where the objective is decided and then how do you get to the objective.
00:19:14.000I know a little bit about this because if you are a dissenting voice, what they generally determine, whether it's Elon Musk or Donald Trump or even me, and I'm certainly not including myself in the same stratosphere as those guys, but if they decide, aha, this is an anti-establishment voice, we've got to find a way to remove this voice, Um, okay, well, Elon Musk, I suppose what we could say is that X is not a legitimate platform.
00:19:38.000What we could say, like, because if you wait to our deep dive article a little later in this show, you'll love it.
00:19:43.000The way that the Biden administration is trying to shut Elon Musk down, they are throwing the kitchen sink at that guy.
00:19:48.000Remember when he arrived at Twitter, as it then was, X now, with a kitchen sink, they're throwing everything at him.
00:19:54.000Like, they're saying, oh, like, you know, the aerospace division, tax division, labor divisions, everything.
00:19:59.000They're really, really Utilising bureaucracy to shut down dissent and opposition.
00:20:06.000And this is what I think dictatorship looks like these days.
00:20:10.000Although I might be dressed like an old school dictator.
00:20:12.000And someone in the chat says that this lightning bolt is a sign of Satanism.
00:20:16.000And let me tell you, I do not worship Satan.
00:20:20.000The type of dictatorship we have to fear now is a kind of technological bureaucratic dictatorship that will use administration and bureaucracy to shut down dissent or dissenting voices.
00:20:31.000The Elon Musk story we've got later really demonstrates that.
00:20:35.000You've got the EU with arch-bureaucrats like Thierry Breton saying we're gonna shut down fine and rack it out of town, Elon Musk and his free speech platform and their crew.
00:20:47.000and the Biden administration. Again, all these people that are advocating for liberty and
00:20:51.000protecting the vulnerable, shutting down dissent wherever possible, using rational language.
00:20:57.000Okay, so I think we're pretty convinced that our man Vivek is in a pre-Frost RV. Let's have a look
00:21:04.000at the end of his statement while I placate my dog. I'm making a pledge today that I will withdraw,
00:21:10.000I pledge to withdraw from the Colorado GOP primary ballot unless and until Trump's name is restored.
00:21:19.000And I demand that Ron DeSantis and Chris Christie and Nikki Haley do the same thing or else these Republicans are simply complicit in this unconstitutional attack on the way we conduct our constitutional republic.
00:21:33.000You know what, that's a good move, innit?
00:21:36.000I suppose with this, with Vivek, Either Trump runs and Vivek is seen as a natural ally, lay down you, lay down, lay down, or Trump doesn't run and Vivek is seen as the natural, what do I want to say, the inheritor of Trump's mantle.
00:21:57.000What do you think Ron Hassanis and Nikki Haley are going to do?
00:22:01.000Do you think they will withdraw or do you think they'll stay on the ballot?
00:22:04.000for withdraw, S for stay on the ballot. Just let me know in the chat, I'm really interested
00:22:08.000in what you guys think. And also, this is our perspective though. The problem is, is
00:22:15.000that systemic centralised democracy is in so much trouble because it is occupied by
00:22:22.000careerist politicians that are out of touch with ordinary people, that don't speak the
00:22:30.000language that ordinary people speak, that don't understand the interests and concerns
00:23:37.000There are people in the, obviously, in the Democrat establishment party that will say that this is a legitimate means to remove Trump from the ballot.
00:23:45.000There'll be people within the Republican party that say it's a legitimate method to remove Trump from the ballot.
00:23:51.000And then there will be people peripherally saying this is an exploitation and manipulation of the Constitution.
00:24:00.000Republican and Democrat doesn't exist anymore.
00:24:03.000Of course those words and those categories are still present in the discourse.
00:24:07.000There are still legacy media outlets and even independent media outlets that are making appeals to a base that are typically affiliated with one of those movements.
00:24:15.000But in actuality, what is trying to emerge, do you agree with me here, is something that is decentralized.
00:24:22.000A world where you can accommodate other cultures, other belief systems, other systems of government, as long as you are left alone.
00:24:31.000Your personal sovereignty, your community's sovereignty, your ability to control your own food, your ability to communicate, your ability to run your own life.
00:24:41.000What do we care how other people live as long as we're allowed to live how I want to live?
00:24:45.000It's basically what I'm saying to you.
00:25:17.000What I would say is, is that the Democrat Party created these conditions where politicians had to be orators and entertainers and media savvy and articulate on camera and able to communicate on demand and then populated their leadership with extraordinary figures like Kamala Harris and Joe Biden that are appalling communicators.
00:25:38.000I've been fortunate and blessed to, during the course of being vice president, have many situations where... This doesn't even make sense.
00:25:45.000And by the way, when they're talking about freedom, how about the freedom to vote for Donald Trump?
00:25:49.000How about the freedom to have debates within the Democrat party?
00:25:52.000How about the freedom to have, in Florida, a primary, a presidential primary?
00:25:58.000All of these anti-democratic measures are just sort of lost in this extraordinary language.
00:26:03.000And we're talking of extraordinary language.
00:26:06.000Czech, It becomes clear to me that there are, you know, people of every age and gender, by the way, who see something about being the first that lets them know they don't need to be limited by other people's limited understanding of who can do what.
00:26:35.000There's a sort of an image so people can see.
00:26:38.000Hans Fischer asking me, is that a revolutionary outfit you're wearing?
00:26:42.000I've got to tell you, whatever I'm wearing is a revolutionary outfit these days.
00:26:47.000And I'm in the Lord's army, says Eternally Free.
00:26:50.000Now, what I am concerned about, and I want to know if you're concerned about this, is does this sense of division and escalate in tension mean that there is a genuine risk of Armed confrontation?
00:29:24.000Your individual freedom to worship how you want to worship.
00:29:27.000Your individual freedom to run your community how you want to run your community without intervention from the state and without corporatist globalism, providing parameters on every side, providing restrictions from every direction.
00:29:41.000I believe in all of our collective freedom to become who we are.
00:29:46.000Without the assent of corporate globalists providing regulation in all manner of insidious backdoor ways, whether it's the WHO with their new treaty, the WEF, constantly campaigning for measures that ultimately lead to less individual freedom.
00:30:05.000And I feel like now more than ever, when what we're facing is a kind of a deep polarisation that we have to be willing to afford other people the ability to live their lives how they want to, In exchange for the same from them.
00:30:34.000That's the way they envisaged the world dividing up.
00:30:36.000I saw a brilliant book on the history of the United States of America prior to your revolution there.
00:30:42.000And it showed how sort of like the regions were regarded differently then, like that Appalachia was a region and there were sort of different sets of political alliances.
00:30:50.000Can't imagine a world where the Republic of California and the Second Republic of Texas team up.
00:30:56.000There seem to be some ideological fissures there that might be difficult to overcome.
00:31:02.000Now we've got a brilliant I mean, we've got a conversation now.
00:31:07.000Oxford University, one of the key academic establishments in our nation, perhaps in the world, they are platforming Albert Baller as he talks about his new moonshot.
00:31:20.000Albert Baller, of course, the CEO of Pfizer, who you'll remember in the last three years
00:31:24.000has not faced a single difficult question. You've seen that guy all over legacy media
00:31:30.000being gushed all over. Oh, is it 98% effective? And as more and more information was revealed,
00:31:37.000Still, no complex questions came to the forefront.
00:31:41.000Albert Baller, you can put the timer on actually guys, Albert Baller has been at Oxford University talking about his new moonshot.
00:31:50.000Now it's extraordinary what he's talking about.
00:31:52.000And what's also extraordinary is that at Oxford University, one of their universities had statues of Rhodes, who was a colonial figure in the UK.
00:32:01.000They took down those statues because they didn't want to be affiliated with a colonialist like Cecil Rhodes.
00:32:08.000But when it comes to Pfizer money, they'll take it.
00:32:19.000Okay guys, let's have a little look at this conversation between Albert Baller and someone at Oxford University.
00:32:25.000You won't believe what they're talking about here as the new moonshot.
00:32:29.000Lastly, what is Pfizer's next moonshot and how do you expect to get there?
00:32:38.000First of all, you never know because you may think that you will be successful in one direction and you can fail there and be successful in another. But where we put
00:32:47.000all our efforts, because again, based on the discussion of effort strategy, we think we
00:32:52.000have the capabilities to make a difference and there is a huge need from the world to see a difference,
00:33:11.000Oh man, couldn't you just tell from the tombra tone of this conversation that when they're talking about cancer and oncology and who among us hasn't been affected by that disease at some point in our lives, whether personally or someone that we love, To hear it spoken of in purely economic terms like that shows you, doesn't it, that that's why there is a requirement for fundamental change.
00:33:35.000That's why I consider it to be in part spiritual change.
00:33:38.000That's why I consider it important for us to scrutinise and examine the already existing technocratic, technological dictatorship that uses bureaucracy and administration to ensure centralised power and a total lack of freedom.
00:33:54.000Because how can it be normal To talk about cancer, a disease that's likely caused by the stressful, near-zoological conditions that we live within.
00:34:04.000And when I say zoological, I don't mean... I mean that we live in a kind of zoo.
00:34:19.000Proportionally we are investing capital over there and disproportionately we are organising the whole organisation to make sure that this area is well, well equipped to be successful.
00:34:46.000Now, it's odd for me to see Oxford University, academia, affiliated so closely with Pfizer, and of course, the cultural establishment is aligned with Pfizer, whether it's media... No, go back, go back.
00:34:59.000Go back to where you were on the teleprompter, please, thanks.
00:35:01.000To see the media establishment openly funded by Pfizer.
00:35:08.000Absolutely astonishing to see how various institutions are willing to work together in order to create narratives and a public sphere that's impenetrable and impervious to dissent.
00:35:22.000Now, we talked to you yesterday about the 170 names on Epstein's list.
00:35:27.000We're going to get Whitney Webb on this show as soon as we can because there's no one else who's done more work, as far as I can recall or understand, to help us frame the significance of the Epstein story.
00:35:39.000The legacy media now are reporting on the Epstein names.
00:35:51.000Who are we going to see on the Epstein names?
00:35:52.000And how are the legacy media framing this story?
00:35:55.000Well, in just over 10 days, 10 days, the names of dozens of people associated with disgraced financial tycoon Jeffrey Epstein will be released.
00:36:05.000A judge ruling on that on Tuesday that many of these names are already public for others named in court documents.
00:36:11.000The judge says they're not salacious and should not be kept sealed.
00:36:15.000Our Dre Clark is live in New York City this morning with more on this ruling.
00:36:21.000We're here outside the federal courthouse here in Lower Manhattan, and this is where Judge Loretta Preska has ordered that January 1st release date of more than 170 names associated with a civil lawsuit that was settled some time ago here, but many of those names that will be released.
00:36:37.000A lot of people saying it's gonna be redacted, Ravenite in particular.
00:36:40.000A lot of you, yeah, are going with the BCs and the BGs, right?
00:36:45.000What we're interested in, I suppose, is powerful people, right?
00:36:50.000Like, people with influence and power, because there's, presumably, there's people on that list that had enough power to, I mean, I don't know, unless Jeffrey Epstein put that necktie on himself, Some pretty powerful people were involved in this.
00:37:13.000We've got some brilliant, brilliant shows coming out over the festival season to ensure that you remain informed and entertained as best as we can manage in constant symbiosis and mutual awakening with you.
00:37:23.000We'll come back to this Epstein story after we tell you a little more about how Things are shaping up now.
00:37:31.000Remember, this is one of the narratives that we want to explore with you.
00:37:35.000We don't believe it's left and right anymore.
00:37:37.000We don't believe that the global cultures need to be at war with one another.
00:37:42.000Even the culture war itself, I believe, is part of the problem, part of the way that people are kept divided.
00:37:48.000Let me demonstrate to you what I mean by that.
00:37:51.000The EU, they're the governing body of Europe, they are taking legal action against X, Right?
00:37:58.000And it's gangster, the way they're talking.
00:38:46.000Is it about the possibility of a financially resourceful and powerful individual opposing globalist narratives?
00:38:55.000Let's have a look at the forces that are against Elon Musk right now, and right after we'll go back to the Epstein story, plus we've got some other stuff.
00:39:05.000We'll have a look at Vivek doing some push-ups.
00:39:07.000We'll have a look at some... We've got a whole host of interesting anti-globalist information for you.
00:39:13.000But for now, let's have a look at the establishment versus Elon Musk.
00:39:25.000The EU is attacking Elon Musk and Joe Biden is attacking Elon Musk and even inviting journalists to start attacking Elon Musk.
00:39:33.000So Elon Musk must be really bad, right?
00:39:36.000Or could there be something else going on?
00:39:40.000In the public space now, you have confident dissenting voices, and perhaps the most powerful one, you could say Tucker, you could say Joe Rogan, you could say Elon Musk, but certainly Elon Musk is taking his turn in the barrel.
00:39:53.000The EU are coming for X because of, well I'll get into teary breath on, the gangster assassin of the EU's verdict, oh transparency, illicit material, you probably stuff you could find on Any number of social media sites and yet Musk is being targeted and Biden wants to withdraw subsidies.
00:40:10.000So is Elon Musk finally facing an attack from the establishment?
00:40:15.000And when you first hear that, let me know about this in the chat in the comments.
00:40:17.000Do you think that Elon Musk guy, he must be against my individual freedom?
00:40:21.000Or do you think, ah, the establishment are clearly trying to destroy this person?
00:40:31.000The EU is investigating Elon Musk's ex, formerly known as Twitter, while the bloc's regulator is probing the social media platform for its suspected failure to counter illicit content and disinformation, a lack of advertising transparency, and what it calls a suspected deceptive design of the user interface.
00:41:16.000Have you noticed that the government talk about you like you're an idiot or a child?
00:41:20.000For example, they want to control the information you get access to because you're too stupid to be able to determine truth from fiction yourself.
00:41:27.000And notice that they use increasingly aggressive language.
00:41:46.000Sometimes when people turn against you, they will keep investigating and investigating until they find something, even if it means almost traveling through all of time.
00:43:32.000I mean he's saying some pretty unusual stuff, he's housing free speech voices, he's willing
00:43:35.000to put himself on the line sticking up for people, he came out in defence of me when
00:43:39.000I was under attack, but that's not what's relevant here.
00:43:41.000What's relevant here is that the establishment are trying to destroy him.
00:43:45.000When the establishment try to destroy someone, you have a decision to make.
00:43:48.000Are the establishment trying to destroy that person because they're trying to protect me, or are they trying to protect themselves from me?
00:43:54.000This is the Thierry Breton tweet from the EU.
00:43:57.000Remember, this guy's just a bureaucrat.
00:43:59.000Today we open formal infringement proceedings against at X. Ooh, you're hard.
00:44:15.000Suspected breach of hashtag transparency obligations.
00:44:18.000Suspected deceptive design of user interface.
00:44:21.000If you, like, agree with Thierry Breton, what you're essentially saying is, I don't want to decide what's true for myself, I'd like you to decide what's true for me.
00:44:29.000And I can see why people might choose that.
00:44:31.000Say if you are of a liberal, or sort of leftist is the word people used to use, persuasion, you might think, oh, at the moment, this machine seems to be in support of my cultural views.
00:44:51.000The best thing is use X and Twitter because it's obviously a threat to them.
00:44:55.000They wouldn't want to shut it down or go after Elon if it wasn't working.
00:44:58.000The greatest hope we have in 2024 is we have a sliver of the public square back that we didn't have in 20.
00:45:04.000And that's why they're going to try to either indict Elon or they're just going to try to crash Twitter through a DDoS attack or some sort of foreign threat.
00:45:10.000They're going to try to take Twitter down by the summer.
00:45:13.000You might see that and think, well that's a right-wing group, it's turning point, it's America first, it's sort of libertarian, it's conservative right-wing, you might have all sorts of impressions about that space.
00:45:29.000But this is what values and principles are.
00:45:31.000Values and principles are you You believe in an idea and then you don't care really what your personal position is.
00:45:43.000I'll make that deal because free speech has to be enshrined.
00:45:46.000Now, you're going to find yourself in new situations with new alliances and new perspectives, or you're going to find yourself Utterly controlled by globalist bureaucracies.
00:45:54.000That's my prediction, but we're going to need new allies.
00:45:57.000Our great ally is Glenn Greenwald, co-host over on Rumble.
00:46:02.000Pulitzer Prize winning journalist who broke the Snowden story.
00:46:04.000Perhaps one of the most important stories in the last 20, 30 years.
00:46:08.000Probably one of the great changes in journalism.
00:46:11.000Probably the moment when the left went, Uh oh!
00:46:56.000And should the U.S., and with the tools you have, investigate his joint acquisition of Twitter with foreign governments, which include the Saudis?
00:47:05.000I mean, how can you even ask Joe Biden a question about the Saudis and then not look at his obvious and evident hypocrisy around exactly that subject?
00:47:11.000The extent to which Saudi Arabia In that question is enough to show you what misinformation really looks like, to show you what corruption really looks like, to show you that they're not actually interested in.
00:48:37.000I'm suggesting that it's worth being looked at.
00:48:45.000Also, by the way, you know that he utilized the CIA to create misinformation around the Hunter Biden laptop story prior to that story breaking.
00:48:52.000So the legacy media were primed to report on that like it was misinformation and disinformation, which it bloody well wasn't, we all now know.
00:49:21.000So here are some of the ways that the Biden administration and the United States of America can shut down and control Elon Musk, which you've got to assume is part of the plan now.
00:49:31.000Even as President Biden accuses Donald Trump of threatening our democracy, he's employing agencies of the federal government to harass and punish Elon Musk, whom he seems to consider a political opponent.
00:49:41.000Because the mercurial entrepreneur has the temerity to criticise Biden and champion free speech.
00:49:46.000In addition, Musk released the infamous Twitter files which showed the White House conspiring to censor communications on platforms like Facebook, And Twitter.
00:49:53.000Now, thank God Julian Assange has a hearing coming up, and I pray that that will be a success.
00:49:58.000But Julian Assange is in prison awaiting extradition under the Espionage Act.
00:50:03.000The Espionage Act is like, you know, Barack Obama deployed it more than anybody else, but it essentially means you're a threat to American security.
00:50:09.000But are you really a threat to American security if you reveal the malpractice in foreign affairs?
00:50:13.000Or are you a threat to the establishment?
00:50:15.000And is Elon Musk really a threat to, like, people and, like, you and me and everyone?
00:50:20.000Or is he a threat to the interests of the powerful?
00:51:17.000Biden is throwing everything it can find at Musk, hoping that the endless barrage of regulatory, reputational, and legal attacks will cause the world's wealthiest man to kneel before its authority.
00:51:26.000The viciousness of the investigations being conducted by the Department of Justice and the Federal Aviation Administration, the Federal Trade Commission, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the U.S.
00:51:37.000Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and the U.S.
00:51:40.000Fish and Wildlife Service against a successful American business leader is unprecedented.
00:51:45.000The fish and wildlife, what's he done to them?
00:51:47.000All the others you can sort of track, oh yeah that's because he does them rockets, oh yeah
00:51:50.000he's got computers and all that, what's he doing to fish?
00:51:54.000Also you bastard, the stuff you've done to those trout and salmon is unforgivable.
00:51:58.000Now you see when Elon Musk is like an entrepreneur and he's just making stuff and I'm working
00:52:02.000on a rocket ship, I'm doing electric cars, there's a moment where he's like, oh he's
00:52:10.000But if you start mouthing off, and obviously, Elon Musk's capacity to impact the world is beyond anybody else's, I would say, you will be attacked, not only by the National Labor Relations Board, but when the old Fish and Wildlife Services have to get involved to think, is this a conspiracy?
00:52:26.000That salmon was given so much misinformation that it tried to swim upstream.
00:52:36.000It says much more about the vindictive nature of Joe Biden than it does about the founder of Tesla, SpaceX, and the Boring Company.
00:52:43.000Especially considering that Musk has been an asset to Biden's presidency.
00:52:46.000He made electric vehicles the cornerstone of Biden's green dream, cornerstone of Biden's green dream in reality, and provided Ukraine, the White House's wartime dependent, with internet capabilities critical to staving off a Russian victory.
00:52:58.000And SpaceX is almost single-handedly keeping the US in the space race.
00:53:02.000Notwithstanding Musk's contributions, the White House appears determined to drag down Tesla and SpaceX.
00:53:07.000Just recently, Tesla announced it would recall 2 million cars because the government has alleged that its autopilot system is unsafe.
00:53:16.000You'd better call back all those cars.
00:53:18.000The claim stems from investigations by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration into accidents purportedly caused by Tesla's automatic features and covers nearly all cars sold in the U.S.
00:53:28.000Tesla maintains its devices make cars safer, an assertion that even Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg allowed could be true.
00:53:34.000So even the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have turned on him now.
00:53:38.000The whole bureaucracy can turn against you.
00:53:40.000Do you see how government is maybe like a facilitator of ease, but if they unperson you, if you step out against them, all of it just sort of mutates into a hideous monster of destruction.
00:53:52.000Even stuff that's just meant to regulate fish.
00:53:54.000Hey, put a mask on you little bastard!
00:53:56.000It appears many of the collisions that the NHTSA has investigated involve drivers not paying attention.
00:54:01.000One was searching the floor of his car for his phone.
00:54:07.000In the first such lawsuit to be brought, a California jury two months ago determined that the autopilot feature was not to blame for a car crash that killed a Tesla driver who had alcohol in his system.
00:54:17.000The win for the automaker was a relief, but other lawsuits will doubtless follow, armed with the government's accusations of flaws in the Tesla system.
00:54:24.000A term I've heard recently is lawfare, where you get tied up in lawsuits that cost a load of money, take up loads of time, dishonor you, and disgrace you, and just an exhausting method that they now use to un-person, discredit, and destroy people.
00:54:37.000And Elon Musk is the biggest threat on the contemporary landscape, I suppose.
00:54:40.000The software fix to Tesla's autopilot system can reportedly be accomplished remotely and will not be expensive, but that's not the point.
00:54:46.000The win for the Biden White House shows up in the New York Times' write-up, which begins, Tesla's reputation for making technologically advanced cars suffered a blow on Tuesday when the company, under pressure from regulators, recalled more than two million vehicles.
00:54:58.000The legacy media towing the line, spouting government propaganda to bring someone down?
00:55:04.000As new competitors launch rival models and seek to dethrone America's number one electric vehicle producer, doubts about Tesla's engineering could prove expensive.
00:55:13.000The Times glides effortlessly from referencing officials' claims that Tesla has not done enough to ensure that drivers remain attentive to recent public statements by Elon Musk have been widely interpreted as anti-Semitic.
00:55:27.000Because you can interpret things sort of however you want to.
00:55:30.000Elsewhere, the government has just announced that Starlink, Musk's satellite internet provider, is ineligible for $885 million in subsidies designated to help expand rural broadband coverage to 643,000 homes and businesses in 35 states.
00:55:44.000The Federal Communications Commission, another one, All these bureaucracies, they can just all be weaponised in an instant.
00:55:49.000He explained his decision by saying that Starlink failed to demonstrate that it could deliver the promised service.
00:56:09.000And of course there is great legitimacy in institutions like Harvard and Stanford and I'm sure the heritage of the government, the constitution itself, all originated in ingenuity passed through the consciousness of individual humans with a dream, with a vision.
00:56:23.000If you turn against the government or if you speak out against their interests, suddenly the whole thing can be instantly metastasized into a weapon of destruction.
00:56:31.000Onyx, darling, claims it is available on all seven continents, in over 60 countries and many more markets, connecting 2 million plus active customers and count in with high-speed internet.
00:56:40.000The firm provides high-speed service in Guam and the northern Mariana Islands, in Benin, in Costa Rica, in the Maldives and, crucially, in Ukraine.
00:56:47.000Do we seriously believe the company would not be able to provide service to underserved rural communities in the US?
00:56:54.000What we're witnessing is gangster government.
00:56:56.000You don't do what we tell you, we will crush you.
00:56:59.000This is, I suppose, as I've said to you before, the way that the Godfather movies operate.
00:57:03.000You see that on one level it's criminality and then it sort of melts into government and you're not really sure where the line is.
00:57:08.000You give people a badge, you give people a suit, you give people a rubber stamp and the authority of an office and they're suddenly allowed to enact violence.
00:57:15.000They're allowed to shut down your business interests.
00:57:16.000Just look at what happened to ordinary people in the pandemic period.
00:57:30.000What we have to learn, I believe, is to reframe the way we regard reality and just sort of step back to 30,000 feet for a moment and go, what relationship do you want to have with the government?
00:57:43.000Let me know in the chat what happens when you start talking about those things online.
00:57:45.000The FCC's decision reeks of political favoritism and is consistent with other attacks on Elon Musk by the Biden White House.
00:57:51.000At a press conference last year, asked if he thought Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter, backed by some foreign governments, was a threat to national security, President Biden told reporters that Elon Musk is worth being looked at.
00:58:02.000His government, quite obviously, took him at his word.
00:58:04.000So who's the threat to democracy and what is the function of democracy?
00:58:08.000Of course, purportedly, what government does is serves the people and allows the people to express themselves democratically.
00:58:13.000But in experience, what the government does is services the interests of very powerful elites using deep state mechanisms that are inaccessible and hidden from the conduits available to us through democracy.
00:58:23.000And they'll use Here's Barack Obama, who to look at and to listen to you would just think is the very vision, the epitome of a modern statesman.
00:58:36.000Listen to what he's saying, he makes some points that sound good, until you recognize he's only representing one side of the argument.
00:58:42.000He doesn't talk about government corruption.
00:58:43.000He doesn't talk about legacy media bias.
00:58:45.000He doesn't talk about the censoring of true information.
00:58:47.000Of course he doesn't, because he's advocating for more centralised power.
00:58:50.000But you need to be tuned in to spot that.
00:58:52.000What they're trying to do is bring down Elon Musk, any other dissent in voice, even much smaller ones like me, by utilising the power of the state and the media, and if necessary, the Fish Commission.
00:59:01.000Understand, it's not necessary for people to believe this information.
00:59:06.000In order to weaken democratic institutions.
00:59:09.000That's an interesting point because you know you sometimes say, well why can't we decipher ourselves if we believe something's true?
00:59:13.000What Obama's planting there is the idea, even if you don't believe it, somehow it's having an effect because it muddies the waters.
00:59:19.000Like it muddies the waters and stops you trusting anyone.
00:59:21.000But is there another reason that you don't trust the government?
00:59:24.000Is there another reason that you don't trust legacy media?
00:59:26.000Is there another reason why you don't trust big corporations and the state?
00:59:28.000Yeah, in every single one of those examples, the media lie to us, the state exploit us, none of them are very honest, they're all profiteering, they're all connected to one another.
00:59:49.000Now, I would say that amidst what he is dismissing as fecal matter have been some extremely legitimate points of inquiry.
00:59:56.000He stands there at a pulpit at Stanford.
00:59:59.000It's indeed a Stanford professor, Jay Bhattacharya, who proposed the Barrington Declaration that raised serious questions at the height of the pandemic about how it should be handled.
01:00:06.000Those people were discredited and attacked by the very forces that Barack Obama is now advocating for.
01:00:12.000Jay Bhattacharya is in that pool of raw sewage, drowning and trying to tell you the truth.
01:00:17.000You just have to raise enough questions, spread enough dirt, plant enough conspiracy theorizing, That citizens no longer know what to believe.
01:00:32.000Once they lose trust in their leaders, in mainstream media, in political institutions, in each other, in the possibility of truth, The game's won.
01:00:49.000Wouldn't this be a wonderful opportunity for Barack Obama to say, one of the other things that potentially creates mistrust in institutions is when there's a financial crash like there is in 2008, and you've been elected on a tidal wave of optimism and hope and unity, and when that crash happens, instead of protecting ordinary people and their homes, you bail out the banks, you create new legislation, quantity of eating, that maybe stops people trusting the government.
01:01:13.000When you drone more innocent civilians than George W. Bush, who preceded you in office, who was characterized as a warmonger, and you presented yourself as the new face of a united America, the new face of progressivism, that decreases trust in the administration.
01:01:28.000What they continually do is avoid any culpability for the creation of conditions, and then use those conditions to create moral authority regulation and legislation.
01:01:38.000I think it's true that there is stupid stuff on the internet.
01:01:41.000It's true that we've said things that we've later had to go, But what this is fundamentally about is your individual liberty and your freedom, your consciousness being a free space, my ability to communicate with you.
01:01:51.000And critically, do you think that when they attack and try to destroy someone, it's because they're trying to protect you and help you, or because they're trying to protect and help themselves?
01:01:58.000And all you have to do is have a little look at their bank balances, have a look at their trading history, look at where they get donations from, and that's it.
01:02:03.000That's where you don't need any rhetorical voice, or any advocate, or any demagogue, or populist, or online orator.
01:02:56.000We must work together to create an atmosphere of love, inclusion and acceptance while continuing to talk about difficult subjects that appear sometimes to suggest there's no way back to freedom for any of us.
01:04:02.000So, in a sense, I suppose that Elon Musk is a powerful global voice who you are unlikely to continually agree with, but if you agree with the principle of free speech, you have to ask do you think his position is legitimate and that he's using his platform In order to facilitate that, I feel like he is.
01:04:20.000Let me know what you guys, continue to let me know what you think.
01:04:22.000Should we watch the rest of this Epstein story?
01:04:26.000We talked about that yesterday and I think the legacy media are getting closer towards the names and I suppose really what we're really interested in is any illegal, nefarious activity And whether or not the interests of the powerful are being protected, because presumably the mysterious circumstances around Epstein's death is an indication that he had some pretty important information.
01:04:48.000Many of you, I suppose, might have heard that it's a kind of a method of control.
01:04:54.000Have you heard those kind of stories that when people are in the ascendancy and moving into positions of political power, they're given these access to Potentially incendiary opportunities that if it gets out, it makes them vulnerable.
01:05:12.000Simply press play and let's have a look at the rest of this legacy media reporting on the Epstein list.
01:05:17.000are Jeffrey Epstein's close friends, associates, and some of his victims. Now the judge is also
01:05:22.000allowing those individuals who would like to keep their names concealed or redacted to file an
01:05:28.000appeal to make their case before the release. All right, so they will let some get redacted, okay.
01:05:32.000Of those names in less than two weeks. Now many of those names that will come out certainly are known
01:05:38.000and notable, including former presidents, but they are all part of a now settled civil lawsuit
01:05:43.000against Ghislaine Maxwell brought by Virginia Giuffre. Now Giuffre accused Maxwell of helping
01:05:49.000Epstein abuse her by arranging travel plans along with setting up
01:05:54.000Meeting times and places around the world to facilitate her sexual abuse.
01:05:58.000Maxwell is now serving 20 years in a federal prison after she was convicted in 2021 for her role in a scheme to sexually exploit and abuse multiple teenage girls with Epstein over a 10-year period.
01:06:12.000Now, Epstein died by suicide in a Manhattan federal jail Okay.
01:06:17.000In 2019, while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
01:06:21.000The judge also noting in her order that some of the names that will be released have already
01:06:26.000been revealed because some of those individuals have spoken publicly about their relationship
01:06:41.000Last night on Banfield, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Josh Schiffer talked about why some people are desperately fighting to have their names redacted.
01:06:52.000So there's a lot of reasons someone wouldn't want... This guy's pretty upbeat about it all.
01:06:58.000Why don't we cheer ourselves up with a little look at Vivek Ramaswamy's physical fitness to have some decency and health and optimism on the show.
