Stay Free - Russel Brand - Tucker Carlson Releases EXPLOSIVE NEW Footage Of The Trump Assassination Attempt From Butler – SF467

00:00:00.000 I'm going to go ahead and get the other one.

00:02:15.000 In this video, you're going to see the future.

00:02:22.000 Hello there, you awakening wonders, and welcome to Stay Free with Russell Brand.

00:02:34.000 We got Dr.

00:02:36.000 Asim Malhotra on the show talking about his film First Do No Farm.

00:02:41.000 It's a brilliant film that attacks the pharmaceutical industry.

00:02:43.000 If you're watching on YouTube we'll just be available there for the first 15 minutes obviously because the subject we're talking about is complex and we will not be permitted to go into depth While dealing with the issue of censorship, one of the issues we continually discuss in this crazy world, you on Rumble, make sure you like and subscribe and let me know in the comments what you think of the forthcoming stories.

00:03:05.000 Like, listen to this. Joy Reid says she wants to see someone get up there and give a knuckle sandwich to Donald Trump rather than his usual brand of sandwich, which is golf bullets or slopey roof led.

00:03:16.000 And so I think that the people who want the fistfight are the base of the Democratic Party.

00:03:21.000 Democrats want to see someone get up there...

00:03:24.000 And give a knuckle sandwich to Donald Trump.

00:03:26.000 That's what they want. But that is not...

00:03:28.000 It's funny, isn't it?

00:03:31.000 Like, it comes down to that kind of vulgar, vulgar, that kind of language, that kind of common tongue.

00:03:38.000 In the end, is what you're left with.

00:03:41.000 Tucker Carlson has released new footage from Butler.

00:03:44.000 I'll tell you what, this is fascinating.

00:03:45.000 You actually see that little thin veal calf dude slithering across the roof like a serpent.

00:03:51.000 Yeah, look. There he is.

00:03:53.000 Because we have millions and millions of people in our country that should be here.

00:03:59.000 And look what happened to our country.

00:04:16.000 Probably 20 million people. 0.99

00:04:17.000 And you know, that's a little bit old that you're a fat kid. 0.99

00:04:20.000 Oh my God! 1.00

00:04:21.000 Damn! 1.00

00:04:24.000 Fucking maggots! 1.00

00:04:26.000 I need an ambulance for the cops! 1.00

00:04:34.000 Finally, uh, the parents!

00:04:36.000 Oh my God! Oh my God!

00:04:43.000 I believe Tucker Carlson had a team embedded in the Trump campaign on that day.

00:05:03.000 That footage is going to go viral, I imagine, and even in the fast-moving blizzard of endless information, that's the kind of thing that surely will have some kind of impact.

00:05:13.000 Hey, listen, I want to convey this to you.

00:05:15.000 Become an Awakened Wonder.

00:05:16.000 Join our locals community so that you can watch additional content that we make, like When I went to the Bible Museum in Washington, wow, how you need spirituality in that place.

00:05:26.000 Every single building resonates with a peculiar, I don't want to say demonic, but demonic darkness.

00:05:32.000 So that Bible Museum, to experience something spiritual and educational, is pretty enjoyable.

00:05:38.000 Have a look at some of the moments where I visited first century Nazareth.

00:05:41.000 Shalom Shabbat. Shalom Shabbat, you know.

00:05:46.000 Good greetings and peace.

00:05:48.000 Limitless peace and everything.

00:05:50.000 What day is this? Shabbat hasn't happened yet.

00:05:53.000 It's not happening. No, it hasn't happened this week yet.

00:05:57.000 Not this week. We have to wait till Friday.

00:06:01.000 Sorry. Till then.

00:06:04.000 Shalom Shabbat. Join us for that. 1.00

00:06:10.000 It's a little bit of fun.

00:06:35.000 Are the party of war?

00:06:37.000 Are the party of big corporations?

00:06:39.000 Used to be the Republican Party.

00:06:40.000 Seems that it's the Democrat Party now during the Iraq war.

00:06:43.000 Didn't think that George W. Bush was a great guy.

00:06:45.000 Now, Kamala Harris, it seems to me, is a cipher for the same interest that George W. Bush was.

00:06:51.000 Let me know in the comments and chat if you'd agree with that.

00:06:54.000 Here's Joe Rogan saying that Bobby Kennedy cleaning up health will be the best thing that could happen for Americans.

00:07:01.000 Which is totally illegal.

00:07:03.000 What do you think about RFK's possibly getting in to investigate all that stuff?

00:07:10.000 I think it would be one of the best things for the health of the people in the United States.

00:07:15.000 If you really care about health, I think there's a lot of us, and it was me at one point in time, and I've gotten more educated about it, a lot of us are very ignorant about what we're doing to our bodies with food and with medications.

00:07:29.000 And I don't think we're being told the truth.

00:07:33.000 And I think there's a reason why other countries, multiple other countries, have banned food elements, food ingredients that we use all the time.

00:07:42.000 These red dyes. They had all these health experts testify, and they were all We've been hammering this point over and over again.

00:07:48.000 They were talking about the food additives.

00:07:50.000 They were talking about glyphosate and how fucking dangerous glyphosate is and like an enormous percentage of people show traces of glyphosate in their blood. 0.87

00:07:58.000 We're getting it through all kinds of vegetables. 0.96

00:08:01.000 It's ubiquitously sprayed on monocrop agriculture crops.

00:08:04.000 We're all just consuming these poisons.

00:08:06.000 There's no reason to have fluoride in the water. 0.99

00:08:09.000 There's fucking no reason. 0.95

00:08:10.000 We've been putting fluoride in the water. 0.99

00:08:12.000 Oh, keep your teeth clean.

00:08:13.000 You don't want cavities.

00:08:14.000 It doesn't make any sense.

00:08:16.000 And we've been doing it forever.

00:08:18.000 I actually don't want cavities, as a matter of fact, but fluoride does cause plaque to form in your brain, I heard.

00:08:26.000 Alright guys, we're gonna join Dr.

00:08:28.000 Asim Malhotra now to talk about his film, First Do No Farm.

00:08:33.000 If you're on Awaken Wonder, our interview with Bobby Kennedy is already up for you to watch on Locals right now, as well as the footage of me enjoying the Museum of the Bible in Washington.

00:08:45.000 And Russell Brand's Stand Up Breakdown.

00:08:47.000 That's also up there. There's a whole lot of stuff and some exciting things coming soon.

00:08:52.000 A new thing. I can't even tell you. I want to tell you what it's called, but I don't want to tell you yet.

00:08:55.000 The first episode, though, of this wonderful new thing, which will usually be streamed live, is with Tucker Carlson.

00:09:00.000 Tucker, as you've never seen him before.

00:09:02.000 So become an awake and wonder right now.

00:09:05.000 But before that, or actually simultaneous to it, here is my conversation with Dr.

00:09:11.000 Asim Malhotra.

00:09:13.000 See you in a second. Asim Mel Hodger, thank you so much for joining us and congratulations on your new film.

00:09:19.000 First, Do No Farm.

00:09:21.000 Thank you, Russell. It was a historic day, I think, yesterday.

00:09:25.000 Well, let's hope it becomes a historic day.

00:09:27.000 It's a great time for you to come out hard against Big Pharma.

00:09:30.000 I know this is... I want to firstly congratulate you on the incredible work you've done.

00:09:34.000 I feel like when we first communicated, you were almost still primarily a doctor.

00:09:39.000 Now you're a filmmaker, an activist.

00:09:42.000 You are very much established among the firmament of significant voices that oppose Big Pharma and their corruption.

00:09:49.000 And now with this film, you have created an object that all of us can now learn from and We're good to go.

00:10:15.000 What an exciting time for you.

00:10:16.000 In spite of the fact that most of the stuff you talk about is pretty difficult to withstand and bear, and the circumstances that you entered into this space are definitely rather tragic, at this point you must at least be considering that there have been many successes that have grown out of it.

00:10:32.000 Thanks, Russell. Yeah, to be honest, as I said in my intro yesterday for the audience that gathered there, that I honestly just see myself as a medium for a message in the sum of my influences.

00:10:42.000 And a lot of those influential people and people who have been very supportive in this movement that I've been part of were all there yesterday.

00:10:49.000 I think what's really interesting though, Russell, as well, before we get into the content of the film, you know, we had some very big names that turned up and have already started Sharing social media posts and really positive, amazing reviews of the film from the likes of, you know, Britain's leading female film director for the last 10 years, Gurinder Chadha, who you may be familiar with some of her work, Bend It Like Beckham.

00:11:11.000 Wow. We had Antia Turner, we had Annabelle Croft, we had Holly Candy, we had Pat Cash.

00:11:18.000 You know, we've got people across, you know, the spectrum of even media.

00:11:22.000 And at the moment, Russell, extraordinary, a complete media blackout on this.

00:11:27.000 And the people who are helping us with the PR side and one of the best PR, you know, organizations In the country, they are shocked.

00:11:34.000 They're wondering what the heck is going on.

00:11:36.000 But I will tell you this, Russell, I've been in this position before.

00:11:40.000 Always think outside the box.

00:11:42.000 We're a global community.

00:11:43.000 We have different media to get the information out.

00:11:46.000 We have a huge impact, an incredible impact, if you like, through your channel and what you do.

00:11:54.000 But what I've done is, in the next few hours, I've been told that this is going to hit the mainstream news of India, the largest The most popular country in the world, their mainstream media is going to do a very positive take because the head of the Indian Press Association was at the film yesterday.

00:12:10.000 So I think if anything, you know, at the very least it will embarrass the British press.

00:12:14.000 I think they need to be reporting on it because this is, in my view, the most important Documentary that really goes in-depth into the root cause behind the NHS crisis, behind the pandemic of chronic disease.

00:12:28.000 And as you know very well, Russell, this all comes down to ultimately the excesses of corporate capitalism and also how it is in the culture of human beings where people are afraid to speak out.

00:12:41.000 I won't name these people because I have a relationship with them in terms of a medical setting, but I would say to you, and you can figure this out, Three of the most famous influential women in the world were due to come to the screening yesterday. 0.76

00:12:54.000 And in the last few days, last few weeks, they all pulled out because they were scared of getting smeared by the mainstream media.

00:13:02.000 We're going to have a quick message from one of our sponsors now.

00:13:05.000 We can't make this content without their support.

00:13:07.000 Stay with us for this brief message.

00:13:10.000 Hey, one of the things that's difficult about the world of cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin, let alone mining, is it's difficult to conceptualize and understand.

00:13:20.000 That's where GoMining comes in.

00:14:31.000 Check it out now. It is scary though.

00:14:33.000 I can understand why people have that fear.

00:14:36.000 Let's face it, what's been created is a kind of interconnected set of interests that are able to control the information space.

00:14:48.000 When you consider something like the Kamala Harris-Oprah Winfrey interview and the cavalcade of stars that came out, it struck me as odd that with the Diddy allegations, with the Epstein revelations, with our sense that celebrity itself is a somewhat corrupted space, that it still maintains a degree of merit and value within the milieu that it feeds into.

00:15:15.000 The challenge comes when, like you Asim, you try to see if you can cross-pollinate these two very distinct worlds. 0.91

00:15:22.000 I'm impressed that in your film, There you have Bobby Kennedy, who's amazing, Callie Means, who I just adore, Jay Bhattacharya, an incredible man, and Vandana Shiva, who I consider to be borderline saintly, as a matter of fact.

00:15:37.000 And what I believe is emerging is a kind of new cultural space that is allowing, at least

00:15:45.000 in the minds of many, that celebrity world to atrophy.

00:15:48.000 In a way, I'm sort of surprised that you even bothered to hold a Leicester Square premiere

00:15:55.000 with its allusions to that former world and what that once meant.

00:15:59.000 I've attended Leicester Square premieres, of course, and I find it interesting myself

00:16:05.000 when I aspire to, allude to, or am still seduced by the artefacts of a culture that even your

00:16:12.000 anecdotal beginning to our conversation demonstrates is entirely co-opted.

00:16:16.000 The three women that couldn't come, they can't come because of the power of big pharma and other corporate media interests. 1.00

00:16:23.000 The reason it's not been promoted yet is because of the power of pharma.

00:16:27.000 There might be individual editors who go, no, I don't want to do this because I see Malhotra as a crank and a crackpot.

00:16:34.000 That's the reason why we're not covering this film.

00:16:36.000 The reason we're reporting these stories on Russell Brand is because these are legitimate and necessary stories.

00:16:42.000 They don't even know what they're participating in.

00:16:46.000 Perhaps if they did know, they wouldn't participate in it so confidently.

00:16:51.000 But when you look at what's covered in your film...

00:16:54.000 Which ultimately were people to take the contents of your film and we'll look at the trailer in a minute seriously and I would urge you to take the contents of your film very seriously if you're watching or listening to this.

00:17:05.000 You would have to conclude that the pharmaceutical industry globally not just in the United States of America but in our country it requires such a significant investigation and reckoning that it would be unrecognisable were justice done by the end.

00:17:18.000 Is that a fair assertion I seem?

00:17:21.000 Absolutely, Russell, 100%.

00:17:22.000 It's interesting you also raise a point about, you know, some people or editors saying, oh, you can't, you know, we can't do anything on this movie, even though, you know, we've got some of the most credible experts in the world, from the editor of the former editor of BMJ, a giant in medical publishing, saying you cannot...

00:17:38.000 Trust what's in the medical literature or implying that.

00:17:41.000 You have no skepticism around it.

00:17:42.000 Extraordinary stuff. But, you know, it's interesting about the crank, crackpot stuff, because one very well-known TV presenter who came yesterday, and good on her, she said, you know, she had some discussion with a show that she was doing this morning.

00:17:57.000 And she said to the people, listen, I can't have the chat tonight because I'm going to see Malhotra's premiere.

00:18:03.000 And the person who spoke to her is also another well-known TV presenter, said, what do you mean?

00:18:08.000 Aseemal Hotra, the conspiracist.

00:18:11.000 But this presenter who was coming to the film was so disgusted, she said, you know what?

00:18:15.000 I'm not doing your show tomorrow.

00:18:17.000 And basically gave the proverbial two fingers to them, so good on her. 0.99

00:18:20.000 But where does this come from?

00:18:21.000 Is this new? Russell, it's not new.

00:18:23.000 I mean, it was Malcolm X who said, you know, the media can turn, I think, a saint into a demon and a demon into a saint.

00:18:29.000 Martin Luther King, people, you know, way more influential, who did way greater things than I'm doing.

00:18:35.000 Again, I'm just a very different message.

00:18:36.000 You look back through history. A lot of people don't know this.

00:18:39.000 I said this on the Stephen Bartlett show.

00:18:41.000 I didn't make the final edit.

00:18:42.000 But what I said to Stephen is, do you know that Martin Luther King was one of the most hated men in America before he died?

00:18:47.000 Stephen said he was shocked. He said, no.

00:18:49.000 Why was that? He said, this is a guy who already had the Nobel Peace Prize.

00:18:52.000 And the reason he became one of the most hated men in America is that he was one of the first people to speak out against the Vietnam War.

00:18:58.000 The press turned on him and he started getting accused of treason.

00:19:01.000 Martin Luther King could deal with that.

00:19:03.000 That wasn't the issue. What was so damaging to him and sent him to clinical depression was his own friends Russell turned on him because the media started portraying him in that way.

00:19:14.000 So this is standard, but it tells you that we are living under a form of tyranny And as Jordan Peterson eloquently says, you know, tyranny emerges when people are afraid to say what they think.

00:19:24.000 When you have something to say, silence is a lie.

00:19:27.000 Or when everybody lies all the time, the tyranny is complete.

00:19:31.000 But what's the antidote? The antidote is a truthful message coming from a place of values that resonates with people, that is beyond comprehension, beyond rationality.

00:19:39.000 And that's what we are doing, Russell, right now.

00:19:41.000 And I'm still hopeful as we move forward with the ripple effect that eventually we will break the mainstream.

00:19:46.000 We just have to keep moving forward.

00:19:48.000 Thank you. We're going to leave YouTube now.

00:19:51.000 You're going to have to click the link in the description.

00:19:53.000 Dr. Asim Malhotra talks about the pandemic.

00:19:55.000 He talks about profits.

00:19:56.000 He talks about fines.

00:19:57.000 He talks about the stranglehold, the asphyxiation, the suffocation that many people in the public eye experience, whether that's through smearing or fear or fear of social rejection when it comes to people that are still in sort of important celebrity positions that comes along with operating in this space.

00:20:13.000 Click the link in the description and join us.

00:20:16.000 Back to the conversation, Dr.

00:20:18.000 Asim Malhotra.

00:20:20.000 In your film, First Do No Farm, how do you demonstrate that health has been commodified and exploited in the last 20 years?

00:20:31.000 Why has that happened?

00:20:32.000 How can you prove it?

00:20:34.000 And is this a phenomena that extends beyond America and into a country like ours where we feel that we have better regulation and we're not so steeped in commodity?

00:20:43.000 For example, in the UK, you're...

00:20:46.000 Not as likely to find.

00:20:47.000 And here's the news presented by Pfizer.

00:20:50.000 That's not like a sort of a British trope.

00:20:53.000 So the question is, how has health been commodified and exploited in the last two decades?

00:20:58.000 How can you prove it? And is it global?

00:21:00.000 And if it is global, you know, maybe the IPA there, the Indian Press Association, won't be so ebullient as you might anticipate, because I feel like India are pretty tied up into the pharmaceutical industry at this point.

00:21:12.000 But I'd love to hear your response to that first question, mate.

00:21:15.000 Yeah, absolutely. So it is a global issue, Russell.

00:21:19.000 If I summarize it in one line, medical knowledge is under commercial control, but most doctors don't know that.

00:21:25.000 So we have a pandemic of misinformed doctors and misinformed patients and unwittingly harmed patients based upon a number of factors that are at the roots of why patients are getting information and doctors are getting information From biased and corrupted research.

00:21:42.000 So, research that's funded because it's likely to be profitable, not beneficial to patients.

00:21:46.000 You know, bias reporting in the media, bias reporting in medical journals, commercial conflicts of interest, and inability of doctors to really engage in informed consent because they don't understand and then communicate health statistics.

00:21:57.000 You add it all up, it is an absolute mess.

00:21:59.000 And what does that mean? Essentially, everything, almost everything invariably that hits The consultation with doctor and patient has been corrupted to the degree where side effects, where safety and benefits of drugs are grossly exaggerated.

00:22:13.000 And we show that through layers through the film.

00:22:17.000 And at the root of it, Russell, just to put it in very basic terms, is that we have the interests of big pharma and big food, because we cover a lot of the issue around the food industry, too.

00:22:27.000 are purely there to make money.

00:22:29.000 Their legal obligation is to lose profit for shareholders, not to look after your health.

00:22:34.000 But the real scandals are that those who have a responsibility To patients and scientific integrity, namely doctors, academic institutions and medical journals, collude with industry for financial gain and the regulators fail to prevent misconduct from industry.

00:22:51.000 Why is that? Let me give you some cold hard facts.

00:22:53.000 Regulator in this country, MHRA, gets 86% of its funding from pharma.

00:22:57.000 The FDA gets 65% of its funding from pharma.

00:22:59.000 So those interests which are pathologically self-interested to make money, big corporations, has now infiltrated We're good to go.

00:23:26.000 It's a piece of legislation.

00:23:28.000 From now on, although drug companies can develop drugs, they should no longer be allowed to test them themselves.

00:23:33.000 They have to be independently evaluated.

00:23:35.000 And if the drugs are really good, Russell, if they do what they claim to do, then they should have no fear for their drugs being independently evaluated.

00:23:43.000 And of course, everybody loses because you think, hold on, in the short term, of course, big pharma are making money.

00:23:48.000 But actually, there is no real innovation going on if their business model is fraud and they're not even engaging in developing really good new important drugs.

00:23:57.000 And we see that. The facts are very clear.

00:23:59.000 Only about less than 10% of new drugs that have been manufactured in the last two decades are truly clinically significant in terms of better than previous drugs.

00:24:08.000 Most drugs are copies of old ones.

00:24:10.000 And probably double the amount of drugs, certainly from some data we've seen, that are innovative, are actually proven to be more harmful.

00:24:16.000 So what is the conclusion, Russell?

00:24:18.000 In my view, very clear.

00:24:19.000 The overall net effect of the pharmaceutical industry on society is a hugely negative one.

00:24:25.000 Unfortunately, I will say this, and it sounds very controversial, most doctors, first and foremost, I believe, are well-intentioned and won't do the right thing.

00:24:32.000 They don't realize the information they're getting is being corrupted.

00:24:35.000 But I think if you look at global health, if you look at what's going on in the UK, what's going on in the US, it's going down the wrong direction.

00:24:42.000 And that means, for me, the medical professional needs to take a really good look in the mirror and ask them Ask themselves, is our net effect on society as a medical profession positive or negative?

00:24:53.000 And unfortunately, Russell, at the moment, the evidence suggests that there's a very strong argument to be made that the overall net effect of the medical establishment on society unwittingly is a negative one.

00:25:03.000 That is pretty shocking stuff.

00:25:05.000 Yes, it's a shocking conclusion.

00:25:07.000 I enjoyed the way that you described the various tendrils that amount collectively to a chokehold

00:25:13.000 over the various opportunities for gatekeeping and clarity, control over academia, control

00:25:21.000 over big pharma, control over regulatory bodies, control over media. And I also enjoyed your

00:25:27.000 suggestion that an independent regulatory body, when it comes to medications, new medications,

00:25:33.000 would stymie the attempt to keep putting out old hits. I was pretty astonished to learn

00:25:39.000 that by your reckoning, many drugs that are presented as novel are in fact retreads of

00:25:44.000 old ideas. I mean, I find that pretty appalling when it happens in the entertainment industry.

00:25:48.000 So a remake of that film, Arthur Aside, that needed remaking.

00:25:51.000 But it seems like we've come up with some new drugs.

00:25:54.000 Don't just go back to the old drugs of yesteryear, particularly as all of us have had to become amateur pharmacologists when it comes to the condemnation of white-label medications that may have been effective during the pandemic period, but their efficacy had to be diminished, negated, overruled in order for the vaccine.

00:26:17.000 The mRNA experiment to continue, as was plainly required, notably at least for profit, but there may be yet more behind that story.

00:26:28.000 Now, you say that big pharma has infiltrated everything.

00:26:32.000 Aspect of the healthcare system.

00:26:34.000 In the US, such things are kind of obvious.

00:26:36.000 It's an explicitly for-profit model.

00:26:39.000 Front and centre are all these big pharma drugs.

00:26:41.000 Every commercial break, every news show, every aisle.

00:26:45.000 It's entered into the great paradise for consumerism, America, in an extremely vivid, lurid and obvious way.

00:26:55.000 But even when you're in a hospital in our country, it's shocking to see how...

00:27:01.000 How evident private interests are in an ordinary hospital ward.

00:27:06.000 You would sort of look at PPE equipment, tissues, sheets, catering, like it's just crept in like a fog, a suffocating fog, with the obvious attempt to, it seems to me, strangulate public medicine and public healthcare.

00:27:24.000 How is it that even in a country like the UK, where, you know, when in our country you hear about An MP took a reported £4,000 in order to...

00:27:35.000 There's always such low numbers of money in the UK. In America, it's like they all own stocks and shares in Pfizer and Moderna.

00:27:42.000 Even though we had those revolving door stories about government officials taking jobs at Moderna.

00:27:47.000 Even though we had massive 10-year schemes of investment into Moderna.

00:27:52.000 Even though in the EU we had the peculiar relationship between Ursula von der Leyen and Albert Baller, even though there are sort of outside of America vivid demonstrations of obvious pharmaceutical corruption, not to mention the pre-pandemic period where it was commonplace and understood whether it was the Sackler family and the opioid crisis or the numerous times that Johnson& Johnson and Pfizer have had to settle out of court for enormous sums of money because of medical negligence or pharmacological ineptitude, It's somehow, during the pandemic period, they once again, through some marketing endeavour that I still am baffled by, managed to reframe themselves as a beneficial, you know, net positive to gain, say, your earlier assertion when it comes to the wellbeing of the planet's population.

00:28:36.000 How have they infiltrated every aspect of the healthcare?

00:28:39.000 How has that happened?

00:28:40.000 What's the proof of that?

00:28:42.000 Yeah, so it's, I mean, it's increasing both visible and invisible power over time, Russell.

00:28:47.000 And I think, you know, they have done it because their primary interest is obviously to make profit for their shareholders from a drug company's perspective.

00:28:54.000 And I got this pretty much verbatim from the CEO of AstraZeneca when I debated him in the Cambridge University Union 2019.

00:29:01.000 And the motion put forward is why I was opposed.

00:29:03.000 I was asked by the BMDA, the British Medical Journal, to be part of a team of three people to oppose the motion from AstraZeneca.

00:29:09.000 Which is we need more new drugs.

00:29:10.000 But what they were effectively saying is we need more people to be taking more drugs.

00:29:14.000 And what does that mean?

00:29:15.000 And the ideal scenario, Russell, from them, from a financial perspective, is if they could, they would get our kids or babies on lifelong medication, right, since birth, so that they can make more money.

00:29:29.000 But what they would do is the next stage of that is not just a recommendation.

00:29:33.000 If they could, they'd get it mandated.

00:29:35.000 Yeah. And we've seen news reports only a couple of weeks ago in the Daily Mail Covenant saying that 15-year-old kids to be recommended to take statins to slash heart attack rates.

00:29:46.000 And I was like, this is absolutely appalling.

00:29:48.000 This is unbelievable. But this is their pathologically self-interested way.

00:29:53.000 So the way they do it, Russell, to answer your question, is they do it by changing the law, by influencing politicians, by simultaneously influencing the media.

00:30:01.000 They also have something in place called opposition fragmentation. 0.78

00:30:05.000 When people basically challenge their, dare I say it, bullshit, they will do everything they can to smear those individuals, suppress that information, because they want to keep the conflict hidden. 0.74

00:30:15.000 They don't want a conflict going to the mainstream. 0.96

00:30:17.000 Because if conflict goes into the mainstream, those people who are speaking for a place of values and truth, they're going to win.

00:30:22.000 They don't want that to happen.

00:30:23.000 So they do everything. So, for example, I have been a victim of this for a decade.

00:30:27.000 The sugar industry went after me in the beginning when I came out in 2008.

00:30:30.000 12, 13, saying sugar's a major issue and I was called a quack and whatever else.

00:30:34.000 And of course, eventually, through our first documentary film I made, we managed to influence and bring the sugary drinks tax in because it premiered in the UK Parliament.

00:30:41.000 So there are ways through this, but this is what they do.

00:30:44.000 Yeah, it's brilliant. I was unaware of your earlier work with Sugar, even though I'm sure we must have touched on it previously.

00:30:50.000 You've got some big hitters there in that movie. 0.98

00:30:53.000 I can see how with someone like Callie Means contributing, you could establish the kind of intention to create patience for life, dependency for life.

00:31:01.000 Bad diets leading to pharmaceutical requirements.

00:31:05.000 With the contributions of Bobby Kennedy and your earliest astonishing insight into the intention to prescribe statins to teenagers, it's difficult to imagine that you didn't touch on mandated vaccines and increased vaccine programs for children if Bobby Kennedy was a participant.

00:31:25.000 Recently, Bobby talked about the sort of...

00:31:27.000 Again, this is a story you can barely talk about.

00:31:30.000 You might as well sort of wave a swastika around as to say that it appears that there is some evidence that there's a causal relationship between the vaccine program such as it stands in the United States of America.

00:31:43.000 Let's just confine it to that for now.

00:31:45.000 And autism. How do you cover a subject like that in your film?

00:31:51.000 We deliberately, and I'll tell you why, we didn't touch the vaccine issue at all, because we still feel, and I thought, in terms of what's going on, and on a reflection of the talks I've been giving around the world talking about the vaccine issue, is people need to walk before they can run.

00:32:05.000 So when I give my lectures, and I've given lectures to even completely indoctrinated doctors one way on the COVID vaccine being safe and effective, and I can say this with my hand on my heart, by the end of my talk, Completely changed our view, right?

00:32:18.000 But I've got there by talking them through the system beforehand.

00:32:21.000 So for example, John Aenidis, I mentioned briefly in the film, he's cited the Stephen Hawking of medicine, in my view, most cited medical research in Word, professor of medicine and statistics at Stanford.

00:32:32.000 2006, Russell, he wrote a paper, which is the most cited, downloaded medical research paper in the world.

00:32:37.000 It was called Why Most...

00:32:40.000 Medical research findings are false, right?

00:32:43.000 Richard Horton, editor Langston, 2015, wrote an editorial saying that half of the medical publication may simply be untrue.

00:32:49.000 Science is taking a turn towards darkness.

00:32:51.000 Who's going to take the first step to clean the system?

00:32:52.000 So we have to take people through a journey of understanding the system first.

00:32:56.000 I think once they get to that, by the end of the film, I think the penny will drop that they should at least ask questions on the vaccine, at the very least.

00:33:03.000 But one of the people in the film You know, we got a lot of credible people who is an absolute giant in terms of medical credibility and no doctor is going to be able to ignore.

00:33:13.000 And I think it's going to be very, very hard for the mainstream press to criticize her is the former editor and chief of the BMJ. Fiona, Dr.

00:33:23.000 Fiona Godley. And she is absolutely, she is very powerful in the film.

00:33:26.000 And she alludes to the fact that medical, you know, research, what's published in medical journals needs to be treated with skepticism.

00:33:32.000 And what most doctors don't know, Russell, is that medical journals are businesses and they take millions often from big pharma.

00:33:39.000 So they have also been captured, Russell.

00:33:41.000 This is the other issue. So there's no public funding of many of these institutions anymore.

00:33:46.000 And the reason why that's important is when things were publicly funded, and people can ask about where the money's going to come from in a second, you know, you get...

00:33:54.000 With, you know, governments in place that are doing their duty for the public, it's there to serve the public, you get greater independence, greater scrutiny, for example.

00:34:03.000 And over time, what's happened because of political ideology, we've talked about the market functions best if we let it be free, and that means we start commodifying healthcare, education, etc.

00:34:14.000 You know this very, very well.

00:34:15.000 Actually, the evidence suggests, forget about ideology for a second, Those institutions, those, I would say, basic rights of human beings, if you like, they then get corroded and corrupted, and then you have basically a health and mental welfare mess, and that's where we're at.

00:34:36.000 So these are the things that people need to try and understand.

00:34:39.000 And of course, coming back to one of the counters that may come say, Dr.

00:34:42.000 Mahaj, I've been asked this in talks before, if you don't get private funding of, say, the regulators in this country for medicines, who's going to fund them?

00:34:50.000 The government don't have any money.

00:34:52.000 Russell, the money is there.

00:34:54.000 It's just in the wrong place.

00:34:56.000 We're talking about these big corporations who've got maybe a trillion dollars hidden in tax havens.

00:35:01.000 Not just that. I'm not against people making money doing the right thing.

00:35:04.000 But their business model is fraud.

00:35:06.000 So we've got a situation where essentially we are robbing the poor and giving to the rich.

00:35:11.000 And this needs to change.

00:35:14.000 Bobby Kennedy said that on day one, in the event that the MAHA, part of the MAGA movement, comes to government, he will begin a top-to-bottom analysis of FDA corruption, of Anthony Fauci's actions, of what went on in the pandemic.

00:35:31.000 In a sense, the pandemic was the pharmaceutical industry's four-long Christmas, a giant festival

00:35:38.000 of profit opportunity accompanied by censorship, control of information, smearing of vocal

00:35:46.000 successful opponents.

00:35:48.000 It amounted to a bonanza too for governments who are able to legitimately impose authority

00:35:53.000 that would have previously been unthinkable.

00:35:56.000 It's into this environment that Dr. Asante.

00:35:59.000 Asim Malhotra's new movie, First...

00:36:02.000 Do no farm comes.

00:36:03.000 Let's have a look at the trailer and discuss whether or not during this post-pandemic period we could have a legitimate conversation about reining in the pharmaceutical industry and its terrifying power.

00:36:17.000 Between 2003 and 2016, fines imposed on large pharmaceutical companies for fraud and other illegal activities amounted to $33 billion.

00:36:31.000 You have to do something.

00:36:33.000 We are considered acceptable collateral damage.

00:36:36.000 We're talking about many millions of people killed by research fraud in medical science.

00:36:43.000 Between 40 and 60,000 Americans died.

00:36:46.000 So this is approximately equal to the number of Americans who died in the Vietnam War, died from taking Vioxx.

00:36:54.000 We need to apply quite a big dose of skepticism to the medical literature.

00:36:58.000 They know they might get a million dollars, for example, for publishing the trial.

00:37:02.000 And that, I don't really see how you can manage that as a conflict of interest.

00:37:06.000 You are going to be obliterated if you take on this position.

00:37:10.000 I effectively lost my job.

00:37:12.000 The thing you care about is, I don't want to lose my memory.

00:37:15.000 I want to be able to do the things I normally do in life.

00:37:18.000 That's what Alzheimer's Robson loves. 1.00

00:37:20.000 The FDA is not going to protect doctors and the public and the insurers and Medicare from this deception about the clinical value of this drug.

00:37:30.000 If you knew, why didn't you do anything?

00:37:35.000 The patient began to verbalize feelings of killing other people and then himself.

00:37:40.000 They are now out of control as an entity that is purely there to make money.

00:37:46.000 A psychopathic entity.

00:37:52.000 So, in a sense, that film, your film, can function as, if not an opening salvo, a significant strike against the integrity of the pharmaceutical industry, even going beyond what many people will be familiar with, that occupy these and visit these kind of media spaces, the events in particular of the pandemic.

00:38:11.000 Seems to me that it's what you're talking about is a kind of a fully immersive assessment, the kind of apocryphal, not fully proven, but likely...

00:38:21.000 Johnson& Johnson, baby talc, potential cancer link stories, the Sackler family, opioids, the various irresponsible promotion of drugs that are known to perhaps not be effective.

00:38:36.000 In fact, when I look at SSRIs and some of my friends that take them and deviations from them...

00:38:41.000 Looking at their lists of potential side effects, it seems that that industry too is one that needs some pretty bloody considerable scrutiny.

00:38:49.000 So what kind of reckoning is required?

00:38:51.000 Is it a day one reckoning such as Bobby Kennedy is talking about?

00:38:55.000 Yeah, 100%, Russell.

00:38:56.000 Enough is enough. I mean, the movie also covers the pandemic of chronic disease and the obesity epidemic.

00:39:02.000 I mean, that's where I really started my journey to understand what was the root of all of that.

00:39:06.000 And we've got these new drugs for weight loss now, which are giving, you know, every...

00:39:10.000 Person under the sun is on this for weight loss is NPIC. And we go into detail and explain how problematic those drugs are.

00:39:17.000 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 who have Alzheimer's disease, actually has a negative effect.

00:39:26.000 I mean, this is just absolutely criminal what's happening and it needs accountability.

00:39:31.000 But for me personally as well, I think What was very frustrating is that pre-pandemic, on three occasions, being aware of what was going on and the increasing power of big pharma, I tried to call for public inquiries.

00:39:42.000 And I got this at the time in the mainstream media.

00:39:44.000 I got it through the Mail Online and the BBC, BBC News.

00:39:48.000 In a separate year, I got it through The Guardian.

00:39:50.000 And then I got it to the front page of the I newspaper when I gave a talk in the European Parliament with somebody who attended the film yesterday, by the way, just to give you an idea of the credibility of the The people that were there and the feedback.

00:40:00.000 The former, the past president of the Royal College of Physicians and the personal physician to the royal household, Sir Richard Thompson, who emailed me today and said, what a marvellous film.

00:40:09.000 You know, so our route through this is got to be strategic as well.

00:40:15.000 Disseminate the information to as many people as possible.

00:40:17.000 Taking it to Capitol Hill on Thursday.

00:40:19.000 Senator Ron Johnson has seen it.

00:40:21.000 He loves it. And we're hosting for policy.

00:40:23.000 We've already got, you know, scores of policymakers and experts coming to that point.

00:40:28.000 It's been approved to be, you know, screened in the US Senate and then hopefully hit America hard, you know, through the mainstream and get as many people as possible watching this.

00:40:36.000 And that's how we change things.

00:40:38.000 That's how we change the system, Russell.

00:40:40.000 Yeah, it's just as visible as Gandhi would say.

00:40:43.000 Yes, it's difficult to dispute that.

00:40:47.000 The trailer starts with the assertion of the significant number that the pharmaceutical industry have paid out in fines.

00:40:57.000 Even when they've captured their own regulatory bodies, even when they have favourable relationships with governments, it's still clearly...

00:41:10.000 Culpable of such egregious acts that these fines are being doled out.

00:41:14.000 How is that not having more of an impact?

00:41:17.000 Yeah, great question. So I think two reasons.

00:41:19.000 One, not enough mainstream media coverage of it when it happens.

00:41:22.000 So for example, there is a case which has already been proven that a cardiologist from the Netherlands called Dan Poldemans had fabricated data on scores of research articles on the use of a very specific indication, beta blocker drugs that slow the heart rate down, for people undergoing surgery which isn't related to the heart, under the understanding that it's going to improve their outcomes, improve their survival.

00:41:43.000 It turns out it was completely fraudulent, and an independent analysis later on, when he was fired from his university, found that because of his fraud over a number of years, which influenced European society cardiology guidelines, 8,000 people may have been killed, excess deaths. That's one person, Russell, one person who's been found guilty of fraud.

00:42:06.000 Peter Wilmshurst, who's a very eminent whistleblower behind even the formation of something called the Committee of Publication Ethics in medical journals, he says, if you take that example and everything else we know in medicine, there's no doubt millions of people have probably been killed by fraud conducted in medical science.

00:42:23.000 But it's not something that's being constantly talked about in the mainstream.

00:42:26.000 So that's one issue. The other issue is when these fines happen.

00:42:29.000 One example is what happened with Vioxx, which John Abramson talks about, an anti-inflammatory drug.

00:42:33.000 Merck were fined almost $1 billion in 2011 because they hid data showing that it would increase the risk of heart attack and stroke at least two to fourfold.

00:42:41.000 And 60,000 Americans died as a result of this.

00:42:44.000 The chief scientist who knew about this and internal emails that came out in the litigation process knew about it when it was being marketed and said, it's a shame about this risk of heart attacks and strokes, but the drug will do well and we do well.

00:42:55.000 He got a promotion, you know, because ultimately what happens is the cost, this is the cost of business.

00:43:01.000 They may have been fined a billion dollars in Merck, but they probably made several billion dollars more in profit.

00:43:06.000 And therefore, still, the overall net effect is positive for them, combined with the fact that there isn't enough mainstream coverage.

00:43:12.000 So just the cycle continues.

00:43:14.000 You know, Peter Gershaw, one of the co-founders of the Cochrane Collaboration said many years ago, you know, if crime pays, you commit more crime.

00:43:21.000 And that's exactly what we're doing.

00:43:23.000 But Russell, it's not getting better, it's getting worse.

00:43:25.000 We saw that with the, although we don't cover this, you know, why did we have a mandate for a COVID vaccine introduced at the end of 2021?

00:43:31.000 By that stage, we knew it wasn't stopping transmission.

00:43:34.000 By that stage, we knew it was causing serious harm.

00:43:37.000 Why mandated it at that time?

00:43:39.000 Why did Sajid Javid come out in November 2021 with this statement?

00:43:43.000 And this is a time when I went public and tried to overturn and helped to overturn vaccine mandates for healthcare workers.

00:43:48.000 I thought, there's something fishy going on here.

00:43:49.000 My intuition said, this is coming from Pfizer.

00:43:52.000 I didn't have the evidence at the time.

00:43:53.000 I messaged Sajid Javid.

00:43:54.000 I have many politicians who come to me for medical advice, and one of them gave me his number.

00:43:58.000 And I said, Sajid, did this come from Pfizer?

00:44:01.000 And he basically replied back and said, Asim, I'd rather not talk about this with you.

00:44:05.000 I will cover this in the COVID inquiry.

00:44:07.000 Later on, investigative journalists in America uncovered that Pfizer in the summer of 2021 started lobbying behind the scenes by giving money to credible grassroots organizations to say, push the narrative that mandates were necessary.

00:44:22.000 So really, this is coming from those drug companies.

00:44:25.000 And what happens is, and we saw this happen with Vioxx and Merck, is when drug companies find out that their product is harmful, they double down on their marketing, Russell.

00:44:35.000 If that isn't psychopathy, I don't know what is.

00:44:39.000 It's terrifying. It's terrifying.

00:44:42.000 It's terrifying that when you think that there's...

00:44:45.000 Not likely to be objective reporting in mainstream, what we call still mainstream media because of their financial relationships and because of a general fear and attitude around these matters.

00:44:59.000 I think it's impressive that your film's already had the coverage that it has, given their usual reluctance to cover such matters.

00:45:08.000 Then when it comes to social media space, again, staying sort of, at least in examples, gleaned from the pandemic, but really all the pandemic did was amplified conditions that were evidently present and matters that you were tackling prior.

00:45:20.000 You might be aware that, you know, Al Capone and his criminal organisation are having an impact in Chicago.

00:45:27.000 If you then put them in charge of the entire country, obviously then you're going to see

00:45:32.000 more beatings and executions and murders and endemic practices that are just institutional,

00:45:40.000 shall we say.

00:45:41.000 Zuckerberg admitted that a meta was pressured to censor COVID-19 content, and indeed did.

00:45:48.000 We know that government agencies in the United Kingdom that had previously been deployed

00:45:52.000 to crush and control dissent in the Middle East, groups like ISIS terrorist organizations,

00:45:58.000 the same AI and non-government groups were used to control, de-amplify, shadow ban, censor,

00:46:07.000 populate comments with bots, with popular commentators that were talking about the pandemic

00:46:13.000 and issues related to the pandemic.

00:46:15.000 And now we know that the kind of information that was being censored was true. 0.58

00:46:20.000 The kind of hypocrisy...

00:46:22.000 That came to the forefront is beautifully explored or at least exposed in Stephen Crowder's recent story about New York City's COVID czar Jay Varmer.

00:46:33.000 We covered this story earlier in the week.

00:46:37.000 It's I suppose somewhat fascinating because he was a czar of COVID and he was attending sex parties and stuff and it all becomes pretty lurid.

00:46:44.000 But there were so many stories of political figures that were making injunctions against ordinary people travelling or making, you know, suggesting mandates or near mandates for the medications or proposing various somewhat...

00:46:57.000 In retrospect, arbitrary measures when it came to social distancing, lockdown, masks, etc.

00:47:02.000 This period of ongoing revelation, I think, requires the additional context of a film like yours, First Do No Farm, in order for us to get the idea that this is not a blip.

00:47:16.000 is not like, you know, because what's being pushed now I notice is, well, you know, people

00:47:21.000 talk about malinformation and misinformation and how it should be censored, but no one's

00:47:24.000 going back and saying to Rachel Maddow, and I've just chose that example sort of somewhat

00:47:28.000 at random and said, hey, that was misinformation when you said if you get the vaccine, it stops

00:47:33.000 with you. That is also something that could apply to many, many politicians in our country

00:47:39.000 and in the United States of America. So we also additionally know that the category of

00:47:44.000 misinformation and malinformation does not objectively mean information that is untrue

00:47:50.000 or information that could be harmful.

00:47:52.000 It means information that we do not sanction.

00:47:56.000 It's such a revelatory period.

00:47:58.000 And what is revealed is that you cannot trust bureaucracies, you cannot trust the state, you cannot trust the media, you can't trust most of social media.

00:48:06.000 So I guess we all have an obligation to push your film forward.

00:48:09.000 And I wonder if you have any comments on the sort of number of times that hypocrisy has been exposed.

00:48:14.000 And if you saw, for example, the Jay Varma story stroke expose.

00:48:20.000 Yeah, I did. I mean, I think all these people really are victims of the system.

00:48:24.000 I honestly genuinely believe, Russell, that, you know, the line between good and evil runs down every human heart.

00:48:30.000 But what's happening is because of also this economic system, this corporate capture, we also corporatize human beings and they started behaving in ways which take them away from proper good values.

00:48:40.000 In fact, you know, it's very interesting.

00:48:42.000 There's a lot of research and I come from, I try and do things from an evidence-based perspective.

00:48:45.000 My purpose and role in life is to Understand and then spread knowledge to reduce human suffering.

00:48:52.000 And the research even tells you, it's very interesting, that if you are more spiritual, if you place more value on personal growth, on interconnection with others, giving back to the community, you have significantly better psychological well-being than people who are more materialistic.

00:49:07.000 And what does that mean? It also means, you know, being free and autonomous where you feel that you can speak the truth.

00:49:13.000 So this is all counterproductive for us as humans.

00:49:16.000 It's taking us away from what it means to be human.

00:49:18.000 And then you get all these sorts of strange behaviors going on where you've got Jay Varmer, who is supposed to be in a position of credibility, but Clearly his soul has been corrupted to the degree where he completely ignores the only advice he's given and does the complete opposite, probably because he himself is not in tune with his soul, with himself. He's not acting from a place of real integrity.

00:49:40.000 And these are just symptoms of this failure of our culture, Russell, which is going the wrong way, and we need to bring it back to what it means to be human again.

00:49:48.000 Oh my word, well that's a sort of a fascinating conclusion to approach because I wanted to

00:49:55.000 talk to you about solutions and it's curious that as science or scientism has sort of replaced

00:50:02.000 religious orthodoxy as the kind of unchallengeable orthodoxy and authority when it comes to how

00:50:10.000 we should live our life and that's not just it obviously in the field of medicine but

00:50:14.000 also sort of data analysis once people can be reduced to data if you know Vandana Shiva

00:50:20.000 participates in your film and one of the areas that where her analysis is most fascinated

00:50:27.000 and enthralled me has been when she talks about Bill Gates's patent in of seeds is a

00:50:32.000 process of reducing nature to information and data which is in a sense a reverse alchemy

00:50:39.000 making all things material making all things mundane the desacralisation of mystery and

00:50:44.000 the unknowable which includes the connection bond honour, valour and duty that exists between

00:50:50.000 all of us and replacing that again with sort of the values of materialism which is a sort

00:50:55.000 of synonym for what can be measured.

00:50:57.000 what can be demonstrated.

00:50:59.000 And whilst as a doctor and a scientist, of course, evidence-based arguments are absolutely necessary, what we ought to be undergirded by are principles that are not derived from...

00:51:09.000 The kind of blunt rationalism that always appears to be utilised to further enthrone corrupt powers and that's become clear over the course of this conversation.

00:51:20.000 Only certain clinical trials are being undertaken.

00:51:23.000 Only certain results are being published.

00:51:27.000 Only certain studies and indeed scientists are being funded.

00:51:33.000 So the claim that this is objective truth rather than a kind of new...

00:51:40.000 A new, I want to say, hermeneutics, a new corrupted hermeneutics is a bogus one.

00:51:48.000 What we've been granted, given, is a sort of materialism dressed up as science.

00:51:53.000 and I consider it to be, particularly since becoming Christian, evidence of the not only 0.77

00:52:00.000 corruption but capture of worldliness by dark forces. And if it is ultimately a spiritual

00:52:07.000 problem, and I love the way that you analyse the Jay Varma case and conclude that it's

00:52:12.000 ultimately a spiritual problem, if that man was connected to God in a way that was working

00:52:16.000 for him, he would not have been susceptible. And I say that as a man that has failed many

00:52:21.000 times and sinned quite a lot, then he wouldn't be an invaluable node for the expression of

00:52:28.000 that corruption.

00:52:29.000 He would have been someone that might have said, well, I'm not personally worried.

00:52:32.000 I'm having orgies. So I don't know if I'm that comfortable offering out these edicts that everyone should stay in their house.

00:52:37.000 In fact, come over to my place.

00:52:39.000 So I agree that what's required is a kind of spiritual awakening.

00:52:45.000 Now, I'm not... Suggesting that that should become your problem on top of creating this excellent film and the brilliant work that you've done over the last 10 years now, 14 years.

00:52:55.000 But how do you feel that these areas interface a scene?

00:53:00.000 Because ultimately we're talking about values and principles, aren't we?

00:53:04.000 I think history gives us hope, Russell.

00:53:07.000 So, you know, in this space, a lot of people are going to get shocked.

00:53:10.000 They're going to get angry. The question is, what is the solution?

00:53:12.000 Of course, spreading that information out to people, changing hearts and minds.

00:53:16.000 But, you know, malevolence can turn to compassion.

00:53:19.000 And one of the greatest stories I tell is a story of King Ashoka.

00:53:24.000 A despotic king of India, and he would torture dissidents, built torture chambers, had molten copper poured down the throats of dissidents to really control the whole of India. 0.87

00:53:38.000 And about 200 years after the Buddha's death, he came across a teaching of the Buddha.

00:53:41.000 Somebody, I think, realized that he wasn't in a good place, and it completely transformed him.

00:53:47.000 So this guy, who was almost like a Hitler character, He was transformed by Buddhism to the extent where he stopped animal sacrifice, he stopped capital punishment, and he sent missionaries, Russell, missionaries outside India to spread Buddhism around the world.

00:54:01.000 In fact, Buddhism may not have spread outside India to other countries like China, Japan, the West, if it wasn't for Ashoka.

00:54:06.000 Evil is rooted in ignorance, and what's worth an ignorance is the illusion of knowledge.

00:54:11.000 That means the antidote to that is a greater or the real truth.

00:54:16.000 And that gives us hope moving forward.

00:54:19.000 That's beautiful. How do you propose to spread the knowledge and wisdom showcased in your film further?

00:54:26.000 And what are some of the intended outcomes?

00:54:31.000 You already suggested independent assessment of newly proposed drugs rather than...

00:54:39.000 Quangos, which is sort of an antiquated British phrase for groups that are...

00:54:44.000 Regulation being funded by the industry, essentially.

00:54:48.000 So that's one suggestion.

00:54:49.000 Do you have others?

00:54:51.000 Yeah, well, of course, you know, the more people that download the film, the better because it influences...

00:54:56.000 More and more people, it creates that kind of tipping point and this bubble, hopefully, of psychopathic tyrannies will burst.

00:55:04.000 We don't know when that's going to happen, the sooner the better, but when you speak the truth, you've got to let go of the outcome, as my friend Bobby Kennedy says.

00:55:09.000 So that's obviously one mechanism of disseminating it.

00:55:12.000 I think, you know, getting the, as you said already, removing, having independent regulation of the drugs, I think, you know, I believe in real democracy based upon truth and justice, and I think You will not find any member of the public who would say that they would find this acceptable.

00:55:29.000 The reason that this situation perpetuates itself is because people don't know what's happening.

00:55:33.000 As Doug Chomsky would say, the general public, and I would paraphrase, doctors don't know what's happening and they don't even know that they don't know.

00:55:40.000 So this is part of the way of getting this information out so people are more aware.

00:55:43.000 And there are lots of other things that we need to do as well, Russell.

00:55:46.000 For example, on the obesity epidemic issue, which I cover, I've been probably the first person to probably say ultra-processed food is a new tobacco.

00:55:53.000 And that's predominantly what we're eating.

00:55:55.000 And these are foods that have been deliberately adulterated.

00:56:01.000 To get us hooked and addicted.

00:56:04.000 And then addiction is the opposite of free will.

00:56:06.000 And then the narrative being pushed by the food industry is it's your responsibility.

00:56:09.000 So it's all very, very dark.

00:56:11.000 But once people understand actually what's going on, they will probably make a stand.

00:56:15.000 And of course, the obesity epidemic is rooted in an environmental problem.

00:56:18.000 You know, these foods have become unavoidable.

00:56:20.000 So it does need intervention by, I know people don't trust government, and rightly so at the moment, but It's the best mechanism we have in a society to function, is to have good strong governments so they can protect us from excessive industry, protect us from external aggressors, and actually create environments where everybody can flourish, Russell.

00:56:43.000 And that can't happen unless we have certain structures in place which are underpinned by regulations and laws.

00:56:49.000 So we're not going to really solve any of these problems until we change the laws that are currently in many ways undemocratic, unethical and unscientific.

00:56:56.000 Mass regulation for individuals.

00:57:00.000 Always opportunities for citizen management.

00:57:02.000 No regulation for global corporations.

00:57:06.000 Maximum transparency.

00:57:08.000 No privacy for individuals.

00:57:11.000 Maximum privacy for governments who have clandestine relationships.

00:57:16.000 Even the example you gave of approaching a prominent British government minister looked like he'd been subject to sort of Corporate overtures, shall we call them.

00:57:27.000 There is the kind of inversion that's difficult not to diagnose as a deep spiritual malady across many of our treasured institutions.

00:57:38.000 Thank you for being the doctor to make these assessments and to point us towards a cure.

00:57:44.000 Dr. Asim Malhotra's film, First Do No Farm, is out now.

00:57:49.000 Go to nofarmfilm.com.

00:57:52.000 There's a link in the description.

00:57:54.000 Download your copy.

00:57:56.000 Watch it. Proliferate it.

00:57:58.000 Spread it like a virus.

00:58:00.000 Stand within six feet of people.

00:58:01.000 Don't wear a mask. Don't get any booster shots.

00:58:04.000 Spread it giddily and wildly as if you were at a Jay Varmer COVID sex party.

00:58:10.000 That is my hearty endorsement of this fantastic project from the man I am proud to call my friend.

00:58:17.000 Thank you, Asim. Thank you, Russell.

00:58:20.000 Will you be at the Rescue the West event that is taking place?

00:58:25.000 Yes, I'm there. I think I've been given even an opportunity to maybe say a few words.

00:58:28.000 But yes, absolutely. Are you going as well?

00:58:30.000 Russell, you're going to be there, aren't you? Yes, I am.

00:58:32.000 And I'm now going to, using my skills as a broadcaster, put up a poster.

00:58:36.000 One second. There it is.

00:58:38.000 I should like to very much see your head lined up there, perhaps next to mine, or perhaps just beneath it, so I can have the privilege of peering down on you just for a moment, which is not an opportunity I get too often.

00:58:50.000 Asim, thank you so much for joining us.

00:58:53.000 When you get to DC, but we're the screenings on Thursday evening in Capitol Hill.

00:58:57.000 So if you happen to be there, we'd love to have you at the screening of the film with Ron Johnson.

00:59:02.000 I know Ron Johnson.

00:59:03.000 We spoke to him at the RNC and he was an absolute delight.

00:59:07.000 I'm coming from there.

00:59:09.000 Thanks a lot. Thanks for joining us today, mate.

00:59:12.000 Lots of luck, mate. Stay in touch.

00:59:14.000 Take it easy. Thank you, Dr.

00:59:17.000 Asim Malhotra, for joining us for this conversation.

00:59:19.000 It would have been available for you on Locals one week earlier.

00:59:23.000 That's why it's worth becoming an awakened wonder over there on Locals with all of us.

00:59:28.000 Have a look at some of the incredible content that's available for you now.

00:59:33.000 Okay, we're going to be back next week, of course.

00:59:35.000 Before that, though, I'd like to show you this little piece of Locals content.

00:59:39.000 It's a Bible study that we did.

00:59:40.000 Have a look at that. I was really in my self-centeredness quite badly, and I read this.

00:59:46.000 Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also the interests of others.

00:59:50.000 Have this attitude in yourself, which was also in Christ Jesus, who although he existed in the form of God, he did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a bond servant.

01:00:03.000 They changed that word from slave.

01:00:05.000 And being made in the likeness of men and being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient even to the point of death, even death on the cross.

01:00:18.000 Right, we're going to leave you now.

01:00:19.000 We will be back next week.

01:00:21.000 Not with more of the same, but with more of the different.
