Stay Free - Russel Brand - WW3 Cancelled! Trump’s Putin Call Goes “Very Well” Negotiations Start Immediately To END War! –SF586

00:00:00.000 We're good to go.

00:06:28.000 Hello, you Awakening Wonders.

00:06:30.000 Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand on Rumble and Rumble Premium.

00:06:33.000 Wherever you're watching us, come over here and join us.

00:06:36.000 Remember, if you support us on Rumble Premium, it helps me to buy new sunglasses for just...

00:06:41.000 $500.

00:06:42.000 We can keep Russell Brand in sunglasses.

00:06:46.000 We'll be bringing you a whole host of new items, like a new item cancelled.

00:06:50.000 How would these stars have fared in today's cutthroat culture, where not only is Kanye West cancelled and Russell Brand cancelled, admittedly these are controversial characters, but...

00:07:02.000 Also, people like Gary Lineker are cancelled and Jerry Seinfeld is cancelled.

00:07:07.000 We are all cancelled now.

00:07:09.000 But remember, those of us that are on the side of the cancelled, ultimately...

00:07:15.000 We're the people that were saying, hey, you might want to be careful taking that COVID jab and stuff like that.

00:07:20.000 I'm not saying neatly and uniquely and exclusively and excessively.

00:07:24.000 Thanks for the compliment, Tard with Hard. 0.66

00:07:26.000 I want to say thank you to all of you that have joined us from Timcast.

00:07:30.000 Someone said Colorado Watch goes, Timcast flushed its toilet into our chat.

00:07:34.000 Get over here. 0.99

00:07:35.000 Get over here from Mug Club. 0.76

00:07:36.000 Get over here from Greenwald.

00:07:37.000 Get over here, all of you.

00:07:39.000 If you're watching us next, join in the chat.

00:07:41.000 Turn off Alex Jones, who's doing his never-ending ex-telethon, and focus on us.

00:07:48.000 Russell, wearing shades like Sir Elton John.

00:07:51.000 Yes, my ears are straight.

00:07:53.000 I'm straight.

00:07:54.000 The world is straight.

00:07:56.000 Things are getting complicated out there.

00:07:58.000 This is China.

00:07:59.000 China have got an aeroplane so big it ejaculates smaller aeroplanes into the sky. 0.87

00:08:05.000 Get ready for global holy war where the mighty... 1.00

00:08:09.000 Priapic warlord cock of China will be ejaculating smaller planes into all of us. 1.00

00:08:16.000 While we quibble about who might not be a racist and a rapist, China are getting ready for... 1.00

00:08:25.000 Not Holy War, because they're an atheistic nation, although there's more Christians there than anywhere else in the world, apparently.

00:08:31.000 Makes you wonder.

00:08:33.000 Let's have a look at some AI footage.

00:08:35.000 Oh, this is AI footage of the mothership.

00:08:37.000 Not Joe Rogan's comedy club, the new...

00:08:40.000 It's weird that Joe Rogan preempted that name, isn't it?

00:08:43.000 But this is AI footage of it.

00:08:46.000 Let's check it. 1.00

00:08:58.000 Get ready, bitches! 1.00

00:09:00.000 I remember when it was just like they were doing fat Americans making Nike trainers in a sweatshop, and that was their mocking memes. 1.00

00:09:06.000 Now it's like, we got planes that jizz little are planes. 1.00

00:09:10.000 We shoot dicks out of our dick. 1.00

00:09:13.000 What are you going to do? 1.00

00:09:14.000 What are you going to do, America? 1.00

00:09:16.000 Well, we've stopped saying that there's no such thing as penises and vaginas. 1.00

00:09:23.000 We've stopped saying that, so is that going to help? 0.99

00:09:26.000 Maybe not.

00:09:29.000 We're good to go.

00:09:56.000 We're in it now.

00:09:57.000 We're in it, baby.

00:09:59.000 Paul Schobar, ever optimistic in the Rumble chat, probably not too hard to shoot down such a massive plane.

00:10:03.000 I don't know, mate.

00:10:04.000 I don't know much about such matters, but I would say an advancing and increasingly militarised China would be a... 0.82

00:10:11.000 Factor to consider when forming all of our political ideas, when forming all of our positions, particularly in this sort of nihilistic, hollow, empty, godless, filthy world that people seem pretty keen to elect.

00:10:24.000 Over in the UK, Tommy Robinson, who as far as I can tell was jailed for contempt of court.

00:10:30.000 He was jailed really because they made that documentary that talked about the...

00:11:01.000 And here it is.

00:11:03.000 Tommy Robinson.

00:11:04.000 Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy Robinson.

00:11:06.000 His real name's Stephen Yaxley Lennon!

00:11:09.000 They love saying that.

00:11:10.000 They love saying that his real name is Stephen Yaxley Lennon.

00:11:14.000 They never miss that opportunity. 0.99

00:11:15.000 It's like, fuck, Tommy Robinson is a good brand name. 1.00

00:11:20.000 Don't let him have that. 0.99

00:11:21.000 Remind people that he's called Stephen Yaxley Lennon.

00:11:24.000 Thing is, Tommy Robinson...

00:11:26.000 He's a working-class man from a working-class community, specifically Luton.

00:11:30.000 Luton is one of those towns that is suffering as a result of cultural collision.

00:11:35.000 Myself, guess what?

00:11:36.000 This will never get reported.

00:11:38.000 It's too complex.

00:11:39.000 But I believe there is a way...

00:11:41.000 That Muslim communities and indigenous white working class communities in the UK could get along and that it's still possible to have proper migration policies and border controls and house non-Christian or non-white populations successfully and collegiately.

00:12:01.000 I believe in that.

00:12:02.000 I believe that different tribes of people can live together successfully. 0.89

00:12:10.000 Dark cast iron piercing fact like a dagger in the side that people in power benefit when working class white people hate the Muslim embedded Muslim community.

00:12:22.000 And I know that there is a way for followers of the Quran and followers of the Bible and followers of the Torah to get along.

00:12:32.000 In fact, there is no alternative.

00:12:34.000 I'm certainly not making claims that a one world religion or a one world government Could or should work?

00:12:40.000 That's literal antichrist conduct right there.

00:12:43.000 But we have to find a way of a lying.

00:12:48.000 We really do, baby.

00:12:49.000 We really do.

00:12:50.000 And Tommy Robinson, he's got the mic, man.

00:12:53.000 You can't argue with it.

00:12:54.000 If people want Tommy Robinson, then Tommy Robinson it is, baby.

00:12:58.000 Telegram's Pavel Durov follows up about the claim about French intelligence meeting.

00:13:02.000 You know that France were interfering in Romania's election.

00:13:06.000 You know that Britain have capitulated after the British population voted for Brexit.

00:13:10.000 Keir Starmer's Labour government has walked it back.

00:13:12.000 Russell, you're in denial.

00:13:13.000 I ain't in denial.

00:13:14.000 I ain't.

00:13:15.000 I'm in a vivid, bright light, ESP traces.

00:13:18.000 I believe in humanity.

00:13:19.000 I believe in God.

00:13:21.000 I believe in it.

00:13:22.000 I believe that the only way we're going to confront the truly evil forces that pull the strings in this world is from a position of unity, acceptance and grace.

00:13:31.000 If you are participating in tribalism from any side, they've got you.

00:13:36.000 They've got you.

00:13:36.000 Well, I don't believe in this particular argument.

00:13:39.000 I don't believe in this particular idea.

00:13:41.000 Are you denying that you're in denial? 0.99

00:13:42.000 Damn it, you've got me in infinite regress. 1.00

00:13:44.000 You've got me in infinite regress, Schober, you sweet son of a bitch. 1.00

00:13:48.000 Okay, let's see, though, because what's probably more important than me and stuff I say on Rumble and the internet... 0.99

00:13:55.000 It's the way that people in positions of actual power are behaving and the EU are, it looks like, manipulating elections.

00:14:03.000 Here's a couple of examples.

00:14:04.000 The one in Romania, where they got rid of the candidate that was winning and going to win and started cancelling and recalling and recanting elections.

00:14:11.000 Brexit, where the British people voted to get the hell out of the EU and now Keir Starmer's reversed it.

00:14:18.000 It's appalling and atrocious what's going on.

00:14:21.000 People do not believe in democracy.

00:14:26.000 And what I mean by reason is their set of ideals coordinated to back up their agenda and their objectives, which they will claim is unsullied by bias and prejudice.

00:14:53.000 You know what they do, don't you?

00:15:00.000 What they find is some undeniable principle and idea that only a madman would argue with.

00:15:06.000 Like, you know, hey! 0.95

00:15:07.000 You don't agree with child porn, do you? 0.55

00:15:09.000 Well, of course I don't agree with child porn. 0.99

00:15:10.000 Child porn's terrible. 0.95

00:15:11.000 The very definition of a child is it's a person that can't participate in sex. 0.98

00:15:15.000 That's what we mean by child.

00:15:17.000 That's what child means.

00:15:19.000 Good.

00:15:20.000 Right, so we're in agreement there.

00:15:21.000 So, in order to fight this problem of child porn, we need limitless control over your ability to transact, communicate, and convey information.

00:15:30.000 And if you don't agree with that, what you agree with is child porn.

00:15:33.000 Well, I've got some follow-up questions.

00:15:35.000 Are there paedophile rings?

00:15:37.000 Redolent and strewn through the corridors and institutions of power in every institution of government in the world.

00:15:46.000 It's kind of starting to seem like it.

00:15:49.000 Don't miss our Pizzagate special coming up next week where we will look in depth into the Pizzagate scandal, which is not what you've been told it was.

00:16:01.000 Of course, in any inverted commas conspiracy theory, there are peripheral details and simplifications that make the whole idea ludicrous, ridiculous and outrageous.

00:16:12.000 But often, if you look at it diligently, you will discover that there actually are massive child trafficking operations going on all around the world and children going missing all over the world and potentially children born into sexual slavery.

00:16:27.000 Let's have an investigation.

00:16:30.000 And an inquiry into that, seeing as how we're investigating it.

00:16:33.000 Okay, so do you think that Pavel Durov is being investigated because, you know, look, when they arrested him, do you imagine that was to protect you and help you, or do you think that they're trying to shut down any potential avenue where truth and communication can take place,

00:16:49.000 whether that's Rumble, X...

00:16:52.000 Telegram.

00:16:53.000 Right, let's have a look at this.

00:16:55.000 Dan Bongino has posted about the Epstein suicide.

00:16:58.000 We covered this a little bit yesterday.

00:17:00.000 Bongino, the new deputy over at the FBI, formerly Rumble's most notorious and successful streamer, posted this yesterday.

00:17:11.000 Let's have a look.

00:17:12.000 I haven't done any media interviews to this point because I want to keep your attention on the work.

00:17:20.000 I don't work for myself anymore.

00:17:21.000 I work for you.

00:17:22.000 What I will say about Dan Bongino is he's completely sincere.

00:17:25.000 When I've met him, when I've been on his show and when he came on this show, long before there was any notion, as far as I could tell, that he might be a person given an incredible role in deep state law enforcement, I could tell that he was a good guy.

00:17:39.000 Just in the same way that...

00:17:41.000 I don't know, can we to some degree rely on ourselves, on our spidey senses, can we?

00:17:48.000 It's too important to you to relate what we're doing, and the media can be a tool for that.

00:17:53.000 But it is important to relate to you what we're doing, and the media can be a tool for that.

00:17:55.000 That's why we chose a long-form interview with Maria Bartiromo for our first interview.

00:18:00.000 I hope you saw it.

00:18:00.000 If you missed it, here are some of the questions that were asked and answered.

00:18:03.000 Yes, we are moving FBI...

00:18:05.000 Headquarters out of the Hoover building.

00:18:06.000 The process has already begun.

00:18:08.000 Stay tuned.

00:18:09.000 I was asked about some of the details surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case.

00:18:12.000 I reviewed the case.

00:18:13.000 Jeffrey Epstein killed himself.

00:18:14.000 There's no evidence in the case file indicating otherwise.

00:18:17.000 I'm not asking you to believe me or not.

00:18:19.000 I'm telling you what exists and what doesn't.

00:18:20.000 If new evidence surfaces, I'm happy to re-evaluate.

00:18:23.000 Now, alright.

00:18:24.000 Have you, by any chance, watched the film a few good...

00:18:31.000 I'm pressing stop very passionately over here, Isaac.

00:18:34.000 Have you seen the film A Few Good Men?

00:18:36.000 If you haven't, you should watch it because what it helps you to understand is law and the judiciary are a theatre and the idea of justice can become abstract if we are not devout and righteous people and that the law is about what you can prove.

00:19:01.000 Rather than about what's right.

00:19:03.000 So I would note that even in the wording there, on Gino, yeah, you can't handle the truth.

00:19:11.000 Actually, I can, because I have to, and I do.

00:19:15.000 So that's what I've learned lately.

00:19:16.000 In fact, that's why suffering, that's why pain, so that you can handle the truth.

00:19:19.000 It's not good.

00:19:20.000 The truth is not good. 0.93

00:19:21.000 It's pretty fucking heavy, and you really need God if you're going to go anywhere near it. 0.84

00:19:26.000 Indeed, you will note now that I've told you, surely, if you didn't know already, There is obviously a universal law and universal truths, because any movie you watch now that you know this is between a protagonist who is trying to obey a code, 0.93

00:19:42.000 inverted commas, a code, and an antagonist who denies the existence of that code, or at least the supremacy of that code.

00:19:49.000 And the protagonist's code will always be about righteousness and good, therefore God.

00:19:54.000 You could certainly collapse that idea into God.

00:19:56.000 And the antagonist will always be saying, False idol or the self-appointed god takes supremacy and, of course, A Few Good Men fits absolutely into that paradigm.

00:20:11.000 Now, back to Bongino's post there, asset number five.

00:20:15.000 Thanks very much.

00:20:17.000 Note his wording.

00:20:18.000 Note is wording.

00:20:19.000 There's no evidence in the case file indicating otherwise.

00:20:23.000 Now what I would decode from that is that whoever investigated the suicide of Jeffrey Epstein knew well enough not to put any evidence that indicated that it was a murder into that case file.

00:20:36.000 And now Dan Bongino lives in another world.

00:20:39.000 He don't live in the world I live anymore, splashing about in the sweet stream of conjecture and opinion.

00:20:45.000 He lives in the empirical, evidence-based world of the FBI, and he has to behave in accordance with his role.

00:20:53.000 In the same way that a judge adorns themselves with robes and sits beneath the crest of that nation in order to indicate to you clearly that they operate and speak on behalf of a...

00:21:08.000 I was challenged on accountability.

00:21:16.000 It's a fair question.

00:21:17.000 I aggressively responded because the director and I have been working tirelessly to uncover the bad actors.

00:21:21.000 We cannot get into HR specifics, and this creates an information vacuum.

00:21:24.000 Unfortunately, bad actors are looking to tell you a story, not the story.

00:21:29.000 We want you to believe they haven't taken harsh and decisive action against rogue employees.

00:21:33.000 That's absolutely false, and the bad actors know it.

00:21:36.000 We were asked about FBI priorities.

00:21:38.000 The Director and I told Maria that the President, the Attorney General, the Director and I are absolutely committed to getting your FBI back to its roots.

00:21:44.000 We will make your community safer.

00:21:46.000 Illegal immigration ops, child sex crime investigations, 764 cases and violent criminal fugitive apprehensions are all on our expanding radar.

00:21:55.000 And while America is enjoying the summer...

00:21:57.000 We're already planning a massive operation to clean up your streets.

00:22:00.000 The counter-terror and counter-intel missions are critical and will continue at our customary high-tempo too.

00:22:06.000 This is what you pay us for.

00:22:08.000 God bless America, excuse me, and all who defend her.

00:22:13.000 Okay, what do I take from that?

00:22:16.000 Like, again, once you're inside the power structures, you have different responsibilities.

00:22:21.000 For sure...

00:22:23.000 Dan Bongino now knows things that he cannot explicitly say.

00:22:27.000 I actually know things that I can't explicitly say.

00:22:30.000 So Lord alone knows what Dan Bongino is privy to now.

00:22:36.000 The reason you can't just say everything is because the law is about what you can prove, not about what you believe.

00:22:46.000 That is an extraordinary position when you consider that God requires faith.

00:22:53.000 It requires the motion of faith, the surrender of personal will, the acceptance of a higher authority.

00:23:01.000 Me, I don't have those obligations, and I would say, Epstein, who benefits from Epstein dying?

00:23:10.000 Well, everybody that had something to lose if Epstein were to remain alive and face trial.

00:23:17.000 That's who, isn't it?

00:23:19.000 That's who.

00:23:21.000 That's who.

00:23:22.000 And one can assume that's some extremely powerful individuals.

00:23:30.000 If and probably at this point to acknowledge that there are powers in this world that can have you killed while you're in jail.

00:23:43.000 Man, I don't know, man.

00:23:44.000 Because it seems like Trump is so sort of slash and burn, doesn't it?

00:23:48.000 Like that guy is literally posting that guy, Mr. President to me.

00:23:52.000 He's posting Hillary Clinton and the Clintons unaliving people content, right?

00:24:00.000 It's interesting.

00:24:01.000 Who do you think looks scared? 0.85

00:24:02.000 Bongino, daft, Chastellana, Lena. 0.99

00:24:06.000 He looks like he's weighted, I would say. 0.99

00:24:10.000 He's a brave dude, isn't he?

00:24:11.000 Like he's been in NYPD and secret or special services or secret services like that, you know.

00:24:18.000 Look.

00:24:19.000 I would say to you this, there's a limit to what even good men can achieve in bad systems.

00:24:27.000 Right?

00:24:28.000 Don't you think?

00:24:29.000 There's a limit.

00:24:30.000 There's a limit.

00:24:32.000 Is that what you would say?

00:24:33.000 Is that what you would say?

00:24:35.000 Trump is now fearless.

00:24:37.000 Hmm.

00:24:37.000 Okay.

00:24:38.000 Well, so me on that Bongino thing, based on my experience with Dan Bongino, he's a really good guy.

00:24:45.000 He's a really good guy.

00:24:46.000 I find it hard in some ways to imagine someone more different than me, than Dan Bongino.

00:24:51.000 But I also felt respect for him when I meet him.

00:24:55.000 And when I say respect, I don't mean fear, just because he's probably a really good fighter.

00:25:00.000 I mean, he's decent.

00:25:02.000 He has a decency to him.

00:25:04.000 A decency to him.

00:25:05.000 And what I would focus on in that post is evidence.

00:25:10.000 Evidence.

00:25:11.000 That's what matters in law.

00:25:14.000 That's that we're in a really weird game now, everyone.

00:25:16.000 We're in a really, really weird game now.

00:25:20.000 Oh, guys.

00:25:21.000 Oh, guys.

00:25:22.000 I'm sorry. 0.84

00:25:23.000 Every so often I look over at the chat and there's some weird shit going on. 0.85

00:25:27.000 All right, so listen to this. 0.98

00:25:28.000 This you're like.

00:25:29.000 You're like this, right?

00:25:30.000 Because, hey, on one hand, Dan Bongino...

00:25:37.000 He's restricted by the burdens of his incredible responsibilities as deputy head of the FBI.

00:25:42.000 Can you imagine what it's like?

00:25:43.000 That's why I think when people talk about, say, Elon Musk, I feel like, well, how would you get on with that amount of power?

00:25:51.000 How well do you think you'd do? 0.99

00:25:55.000 Russell, I'm going to join Rumble Premium just because of your show, you crazy wanker. 1.00

00:26:00.000 Do it! 1.00

00:26:01.000 Rug do.

00:26:02.000 Do it.

00:26:02.000 Join Rumble Premium here.

00:26:03.000 Put the details down there.

00:26:04.000 You should be supporting us.

00:26:06.000 We're going to make a lot more content.

00:26:07.000 We've got a lot to say.

00:26:09.000 Okay.

00:26:09.000 So, like, you know, whether it's Dan Bongino and his new role or Elon Musk and his incredible responsibilities, some of us don't know what burdens come.

00:26:16.000 It's sort of Damocles, isn't it, ultimately?

00:26:18.000 It's sort of Damocles.

00:26:19.000 You don't know that the person in the position of power has a sword suspended above their head.

00:26:23.000 They make an error.

00:26:24.000 It hangs by a thread.

00:26:25.000 They are dead.

00:26:26.000 That's the position that people in positions of power...

00:26:30.000 That's why the ultimate power, Christ Jesus, has to fearlessly face total annihilation and death, take on board all of our sin, be immolated and destroyed because you have to show that that's what you're capable of in order to be God and in order for us to be redeemed.

00:26:49.000 Assassin says, Russell, you're wrong this time.

00:26:51.000 Go on, bring your receipts and we'll work it out.

00:26:55.000 Rhyme for reason, much harsher of you. 1.00

00:26:58.000 You are a lying. 1.00

00:26:59.000 33 loving, faggot. 1.00

00:27:02.000 Okay. 1.00

00:27:02.000 Lying, probably true. 1.00

00:27:04.000 Inevitably, I lie sometimes.

00:27:06.000 33 loving, do love 33. Faggot in this context, you mean, I think, homosexual. 1.00

00:27:14.000 That, in this instance, is not true. 1.00

00:27:17.000 But were it true, I would warrant love and acceptance and respect.

00:27:23.000 Now then, let's have a look at this.

00:27:26.000 You'll like this because Zero Hedge, now that the White House press briefings allow independent media in, then as a result of that, you've got people asking crazy questions like, what do you think about all the Clinton body count and Epstein ties to Israel?

00:27:43.000 So let's have a look.

00:27:44.000 Thank you.

00:27:45.000 And my only other question for you is, so over the weekend...

00:27:49.000 President Trump posted, Truth Social, a video highlighting what most people call the Clinton body count, which is the strange number of suicides that seem to happen in Clinton circles.

00:27:59.000 I have a headline here from the Washington Post that said, Trump peddles false conspiracy theories tying the Clintons to several deaths.

00:28:06.000 So I just wanted to highlight, real quick, this wasn't in Trump's video, but this is from the Arkansas Times.

00:28:11.000 And it's the death of Mark Middleton, who was a former Clinton White House aide, who was found dead on a Clinton Foundation property.

00:28:18.000 And I'll just quote from the Arkansas Times.

00:28:20.000 Middleton apparently shot himself in the chest with a shotgun and also hung himself from a tree with an extension cord.

00:28:27.000 So, I have no idea how somebody commits suicide that way, but if the Washington Post is here, maybe you can enlighten us as to how that was actually a suicide.

00:28:34.000 So anyways, that's just a lead-in to my question about the most famous.

00:28:38.000 Clinton-related suicide, which is that of Jeffrey Epstein.

00:28:42.000 There's still a lot of questions around that case.

00:28:44.000 You've released Phase 1 of the Epstein files.

00:28:47.000 What was missing from that is any connection to his ties to intelligence agencies, and that's really the whole story, that not just trafficking young girls, but doing it on behalf of intelligence agencies, and even potentially as part of a blackmail ring with potential ties to the Israeli government.

00:29:04.000 For Phase 2, when can we expect it?

00:29:06.000 Will it have...

00:29:10.000 I know the Attorney General has committed to releasing those files.

00:29:14.000 I would defer you to the Department of Justice on her timeline, but when she has made a promise in the past, she has kept it, and I'm certain that she will in this case as well.

00:29:22.000 Okay, fair enough, fair enough.

00:29:24.000 It's good to see those questions at least asked.

00:29:26.000 Now, the frame of the cultural conversation...

00:29:30.000 Is shifting, isn't it?

00:29:31.000 Now those questions get asked.

00:29:33.000 They don't get it.

00:29:35.000 I don't know if you'll see results because maybe the reason the Dan Bongino thing is interesting is even when you have almost all-star Harlem Globetrotter appointments, like, well, wouldn't it be amazing if RFK was the head of the HHS?

00:29:50.000 Wouldn't it be amazing if Dan Bongino was deputy head of the FBI?

00:29:53.000 There are still liabilities, conditions and systemic controls that likely inhibit, prohibit, mask and control the amount of information that can be released.

00:30:04.000 Again, I draw your attention to his use of the word evidence, which is important.

00:30:09.000 Now, have a look at this.

00:30:10.000 This is one of my favourite shows, Blackadder.

00:30:13.000 And in this episode, Blackadder has been court-martialed and jailed for the murder of a pigeon.

00:30:19.000 Now, it turns out he did do it.

00:30:22.000 He did actually murder this pigeon, but he talks about the perfect lawyer to employ. 0.99

00:30:29.000 Have a look at this.

00:30:31.000 All settled in and happy hour then, sir.

00:30:33.000 Written all our last goodbyes.

00:30:35.000 Oh, no need for that, Perkins.

00:30:37.000 I've just dashed off a couple of notes, one asking for a sponge bag and the other sending for my lawyer.

00:30:42.000 Oh, your lawyer, yes, sir.

00:30:43.000 Now, don't you think that might be a bit of a waste of money, sir?

00:30:47.000 Not when he's the finest man in English legal history.

00:30:50.000 Ever heard of Bob Massingbird?

00:30:52.000 Oh, yes indeed.

00:30:53.000 A most gifted gentleman.

00:30:55.000 Quite.

00:30:56.000 I remember Massingbird's most famous case.

00:30:58.000 The case of the bloody knife.

00:31:00.000 A man was found next to a murdered body.

00:31:02.000 He had the knife in his hand.

00:31:04.000 Thirteen witnesses had seen him stab the victim. 1.00

00:31:06.000 And when the police arrived, he said, I'm glad I killed the bastard. 0.99

00:31:12.000 Massingbird not only got him off, he got him knighted in the New Year's Honours list. 0.99

00:31:16.000 And the relatives of the victim had to pay to have the blood washed out of his jacket.

00:31:20.000 I hear he's a dad bandit at the prosecution as well, sir.

00:31:23.000 Like that joke, the relatives had to pay to have the blood washed out of his jacket.

00:31:27.000 A lawyer is a storyteller.

00:31:30.000 All of us are storytellers in our way.

00:31:32.000 As they say, the world's not made of molecules.

00:31:34.000 The world is made of stories, i.e.

00:31:36.000 we project reality onto matter.

00:31:41.000 It is not adhered deliberately and objectively with the qualities that we claim, but we may alter it.

00:31:47.000 And a lawyer can turn a vicious murder into a situation where you can get the blood washed out of your jacket at the expense of the victim's family.

00:31:56.000 Sweet.

00:31:57.000 Now, I love this part of it as well, the prosecution.

00:32:00.000 Any of you that don't know about Oscar Wilde, Oscar Wilde was a...

00:32:04.000 Irish genius and playwright and wit who challenged the Moors of the time with his extravagant homosexuality. 1.00

00:32:14.000 I don't know if his homosexuality was extravagant, but certainly his campness was extravagant. 0.94

00:32:18.000 He was married to a woman, had kids, but had a bunch of affairs with guys.

00:32:23.000 And he ended up in jail for sodomy because he had an affair with the literal son of the Marquis of Queensbury.

00:32:34.000 Set out the rules for professional boxing and pugilism, which remain to this very day. 0.97

00:32:40.000 So imagine if you are the guy who's so into boxing that you actually are the person that decides what the rules are for professional boxing, and you find out that the world's gayest man is having sex with your son. 0.99

00:32:54.000 You would be... 0.99

00:32:55.000 Annoyed!

00:32:56.000 And the Marquis of Queensbury was annoyed, and it led to the famous trials of Oscar Wilde.

00:33:01.000 And Wilde was magnificent in these trials, apparently, treating it like a kind of theatre, playing to the gallery, making quips, epithets, epigrams, bomb-mots and jokes galore throughout the proceedings, but ultimately being jailed in Reading,

00:33:19.000 England, for four years for indecent acts.

00:33:22.000 Homosexuality, sodomy, et al. 0.99

00:33:25.000 This destroyed Wild and he died impoverished in Paris, France. 0.76

00:33:33.000 And as he's dying words, the great and brilliant man said, this wallpaper referring to his bedsit is terrible.

00:33:40.000 One of us has to go.

00:33:42.000 He went out on a quip.

00:33:44.000 He was a great, great genius and a great, great man.

00:33:48.000 Here in Blackadder, there's an exquisite joke.

00:33:53.000 Check it.

00:33:53.000 Banned out the prosecution as well, sir.

00:33:55.000 Yes.

00:33:55.000 Well, look at Oscar Wilde.

00:33:57.000 Old Butch Oscar. 0.77

00:33:59.000 A big-bearded, bonking Butch Oscar. 0.92

00:34:02.000 The terror of the ladies. 0.56

00:34:04.000 114 illegitimate children.

00:34:06.000 World heavyweight boxing champion.

00:34:08.000 And author of the best-selling pamphlet, Why I Like to Do It With Girls.

00:34:12.000 And Mussing Bird had him sent down for being a whoopsie. 0.99

00:34:20.000 Ah, Baldrick, anything from Massingbird yet?

00:34:22.000 Yes, sir, just arrived, sir.

00:34:24.000 What is it?

00:34:25.000 A sponge bag, sir.

00:34:28.000 A sponge bag?

00:34:29.000 Yes, sir.

00:34:30.000 Baldrick, I gave you two notes.

00:34:32.000 You sent the note asking for a sponge bag to the finest mind in English legal history.

00:34:38.000 Certainly did, sir.

00:34:39.000 And you sent the note requesting legal representation to...

00:34:43.000 Well, tally-ho, with a ping, with a ball, and a buzz, buzz, buzz.

00:34:50.000 First of all, sir, I am deeply, deeply honoured.

00:34:54.000 Warwick, I'll deal with you later.

00:34:55.000 Amazing.

00:34:56.000 Brilliant.

00:34:57.000 Brilliant joke.

00:34:58.000 Also, brilliant insight into the nature of the law and some good, what they call it, retconning.

00:35:04.000 Retconning for the story of Oscar Wilde.

00:35:08.000 Now, hey, listen, if you're watching us on YouTube, we're leaving you.

00:35:14.000 Yeah, we're not playing no ads because we just taped them, right?

00:35:17.000 OK, well, let's check out this.

00:35:20.000 Let's have a quick look at this.

00:35:21.000 And when we come back, there's a brilliant bit of analysis here where the great historian Jeffrey Sachs points out that all the world's problems go back to the British. 0.81

00:35:34.000 Then we're going to look at Biden's cancer and how predictably Biden's cancer is being used to obfuscate facts and negligence during his...

00:35:44.000 So much more.

00:35:46.000 Click the link in the description.

00:35:47.000 Join us over on Rumble.

00:35:50.000 That wasn't a laugh track, actually.

00:35:51.000 They used to shoot in front of an audience, so it's real audience laughter.

00:35:56.000 On Blackadder, by the way.

00:35:57.000 So click the link in the description.

00:35:59.000 Here's a quick word from Rumble Premium itself.

00:36:01.000 Free speech is under attack.

00:36:03.000 Mine particularly, yours and everybody's.

00:36:05.000 Whether it's British government officials demonetising people on YouTube, putting people in jail for Facebook posts, or the various other ways that nefarious systems and institutions that work, I reckon, for Satan, drag us down into the pit.

00:36:18.000 We have to fight back.

00:36:19.000 And how are we going to fight back?

00:36:21.000 Rumble.

00:36:21.000 You know when you first heard a rumble, you thought, ooh, what is this little organisation?

00:36:25.000 You thought about Royal Rumble, didn't you?

00:36:26.000 You thought about a rumble in the jungle.

00:36:28.000 You thought about a rumble in your tumbo.

00:36:30.000 But now we know...

00:36:31.000 That rumbling is the sweet tectonic plate shifting towards free speech.

00:36:34.000 And if you get Rumble Premium, you don't only get great content creators like old Rusty Brandstein, AIPAC-supported Zionist. 0.85

00:36:42.000 You also get Roustapha Branderjahad.

00:36:45.000 He loves Islam.

00:36:47.000 Also, you get old Russ.

00:36:49.000 He loves Trump.

00:36:50.000 And then you get Russell.

00:36:52.000 He's a big fan of Kamala Harris.

00:36:54.000 How many people do you need on one channel?

00:36:57.000 You've got to get it.

00:36:58.000 Not only do you get me, you get Mug Club. 0.79

00:37:09.000 And there are also many people on there that are Jews, gays, blacks, whites. 0.97

00:37:15.000 Lellers, trans people, Dr. Disrespect, he's got to be good. 1.00

00:37:20.000 We've got everyone.

00:37:21.000 Chris Pawlowski, there's not a donut, he won't dunk.

00:37:25.000 Claudio, he's a bit Italian.

00:37:27.000 We've got great people at Rumble working just for you to make sure you get free speech, the sweet taste of freedom, sluicing around in your gums.

00:37:36.000 When major advertisers conspired to pull their dollars like dunking donuts, they said that Rumble had a right-wing culture.

00:37:43.000 Well, that can't be true.

00:37:45.000 Let's have a look at just some of the posts here.

00:37:48.000 Rumble is a lily-livered place where gays and Zionists as well as queers and trans plus folk can get together.

00:37:56.000 And that's from Steve Bannon.

00:37:58.000 Look at this here.

00:37:59.000 I come on to Rumble to do my flower arranging.

00:38:02.000 That's from Tommy Robinson in the UK.

00:38:05.000 Look at this.

00:38:06.000 I come on here just to look at men in tight-fitted denim hot pants.

00:38:11.000 That's from Don Trump.

00:38:12.000 Junior.

00:38:12.000 All in the Rumble chat.

00:38:14.000 This is a free speech conduit where you're free to be whoever you want to be.

00:38:19.000 Look, you can say whatever you want in the comments.

00:38:21.000 Like, glick me out of my stoke hole.

00:38:23.000 You can't sniff that on a Wednesday.

00:38:25.000 You put that five knuckles deep, baby. 0.89

00:38:28.000 Hey, Benjamin Netanyahu.

00:38:30.000 You're always going on about Benjamin Netanyahu.

00:38:33.000 The Houthis are coming. 0.98

00:38:34.000 The Houthis are coming. 0.98

00:38:36.000 How many people must be Clinton to death?

00:38:38.000 You can say whatever you want.

00:39:02.000 And stay free together.

00:39:09.000 Click the link.

00:39:10.000 Alright, that's enough.

00:39:11.000 Ah, there it is, the advert.

00:39:13.000 So, okay, guys, let's see.

00:39:15.000 What are we going to do now?

00:39:16.000 Oh, yeah, Jeffrey Sachs.

00:39:17.000 This is good.

00:39:18.000 This is Jeffrey Sachs talking about colonialism and imperialism and, in a sense, the template for global controls.

00:39:28.000 Let's check out this.

00:39:29.000 This is good.

00:39:29.000 I'm looking forward to this.

00:39:30.000 All problems in the world go back to the British. 1.00

00:39:34.000 Wait a minute, I am British.

00:39:36.000 That's true in Pakistan, India.

00:39:40.000 That's true in China.

00:39:42.000 That's true throughout the Middle East.

00:39:44.000 That's true here in Cyprus.

00:39:46.000 Because they were the most powerful empire for 200 years.

00:39:50.000 And they left behind conflicts everywhere.

00:39:53.000 You know, the disaster taking place in Palestine right now. 1.00

00:39:57.000 One of the reasons is that between 1915 and 1917, the British prom...

00:40:12.000 Listen, we'd love you to have this bit of territory.

00:40:20.000 Hello, look.

00:40:26.000 We love you.

00:40:27.000 Love eating snails, frog legs, all of that stuff.

00:40:30.000 Listen, we'd love you to have this territory.

00:40:32.000 Would you mind fighting alongside us?

00:40:34.000 The French, it's yours. 0.99

00:40:36.000 Then, in the Balfour Declaration in 1917, they said it's a Jewish homeland.

00:40:42.000 Look, we've read the Bible.

00:40:44.000 Love.

00:40:44.000 Motzo ball soup, all of that.

00:40:46.000 You have it.

00:40:48.000 Absolutely have it.

00:40:49.000 You've not promised it to anyone.

00:40:50.000 Listen, we don't want to get bogged down in conversation.

00:40:52.000 Just, you know, take your homeland. 0.87

00:40:54.000 Have a lovely time.

00:40:54.000 Jewish homeland.

00:40:55.000 So the British promised three times land that wasn't even theirs.

00:41:00.000 And they got a lot of nerve as far as I'm concerned.

00:41:03.000 And now you need to disentangle all of this.

00:41:07.000 But this is where the problems originate.

00:41:10.000 Brilliant.

00:41:10.000 Also, the concept of owning land, as all of you Americans will know, is in itself an interesting concept.

00:41:19.000 Who among us can claim to own land?

00:41:22.000 What is our relationship with land?

00:41:24.000 Where would you derive your authority over land from?

00:41:28.000 Are there any examples of how custody of the land might be correctly marshaled?

00:41:36.000 And guided stewardship rather than subjugation.

00:41:40.000 There are principles available for us, but we neglect those principles in pursuit of power.

00:41:48.000 The British not only didn't own that land, they don't own any land.

00:41:53.000 It's extraordinary.

00:41:55.000 It's extraordinary the way that that entire fiasco has been brought about.

00:42:00.000 Okay.

00:42:01.000 Let's cover a little bit of what I might call normal news.

00:42:05.000 We've got Trump's negotiation with Putin and whether or not he's going to lead to peace between Ukraine and Russia.

00:42:12.000 We've got some interesting stuff on Bernie Sanders.

00:42:15.000 Basically, Bernie Sanders on Andrew Schultz's show acknowledges that the Democrat Party is a threat to democracy itself.

00:42:22.000 He's doing some good stuff, isn't he, Andrew Schultz, at the moment?

00:42:25.000 I like this conversation with Wesley Huff.

00:42:28.000 And we've also got...

00:42:30.000 Some stuff on Biden's cancer.

00:42:32.000 I don't really have to handle this stuff around Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis because if you, like us, have for a long time understood the nature of Joe Biden's presidency, do you enjoy,

00:42:48.000 let me know in the comments, do you enjoy analysing the ways in which it's now demonstrable that he was not able to preside?

00:43:00.000 Do you enjoy going, hold on a minute, that guy was falling apart?

00:43:05.000 I suppose we can do some analysis on it.

00:43:07.000 All right, let's have a little look at it.

00:43:08.000 I'm kind of interested.

00:43:10.000 So first of all, this is Trump saying that he's surprised that the public weren't notified a long time ago.

00:43:18.000 Do you want to respond to President Biden being diagnosed with cancer?

00:43:21.000 Are you going to call your predecessor?

00:43:24.000 I think it's very sad, actually.

00:43:27.000 I'm surprised that it...

00:43:29.000 It wasn't, you know, the public wasn't notified a long time ago because to get to stage nine, that's a long time.

00:43:35.000 I just had my physical.

00:43:37.000 You saw that.

00:43:37.000 You saw the results of that particular test.

00:43:39.000 I think that is amazing.

00:43:41.000 I love that Trump, even when discussing Joe Biden's cancer, which he has done sensitively and diplomatically, he inadvertently strays into a boast about how he don't have cancer.

00:43:57.000 My medical, on the other hand, pretty good.

00:44:00.000 My A-hole, like a little pink, lifesaver.

00:44:03.000 Immaculate, beautiful shape.

00:44:05.000 No sign of cancer.

00:44:06.000 I dilate.

00:44:08.000 It drops out like a pellet. 0.87

00:44:10.000 Beautiful, beautiful feces.

00:44:12.000 Nothing like it.

00:44:13.000 There it is, in the pool, in the toilet behind me.

00:44:18.000 I look at it.

00:44:18.000 It winks.

00:44:19.000 It winks back at me.

00:44:20.000 We wink at each other.

00:44:22.000 Perfect.

00:44:22.000 Test is standard to pretty much anybody getting...

00:44:27.000 A physical, good physical.

00:44:29.000 We had the doctors at the White House and over at Walter Reed, which is a fantastic hospital.

00:44:34.000 I do it.

00:44:35.000 I did a very complete physical.

00:44:37.000 Also, yeah, I did notice that, stage nine cancer.

00:44:40.000 I thought it was like stage one, two, three, four, dead.

00:44:43.000 I didn't know that there was like stage nine.

00:44:48.000 New stages of cancer.

00:44:49.000 I mean, how much cancer is that?

00:44:51.000 Okay, so here's a guy on Morning Joe saying that for Biden's cancer to be as aggressive and serious as it is now, the diagnosis must initially have been offered some time ago.

00:44:59.000 You believe it is likely, if this prostate cancer has spread to the bone, that he could have had it.

00:45:08.000 For up to a decade, but certainly it's likely, would it be fair to say, it's likely to have had this for at least several years.

00:45:20.000 Oh, more than several years.

00:45:21.000 You don't get prostate cancer.

00:45:24.000 Again, I just want to stop you.

00:45:26.000 So this is not speculation.

00:45:28.000 If you have prostate cancer that is spread to the bone, then he most certainly, you were saying, had it when he was President of the United States.

00:45:39.000 Oh, yeah.

00:45:40.000 He did not develop it in the last 100, 200 days.

00:45:44.000 He had it while he was President.

00:45:46.000 He probably had it at the start of his...

00:45:51.000 Yes, I don't think there's any disagreement about that.

00:45:58.000 Okay, that's pretty interesting.

00:46:00.000 In a sense, what this is is a reframing of the Biden presidency as they acknowledge that the cognitive decline that was clear at the time, observed at the time, noted at the time, reported on in independent media at the time was clearly The case and that they should have been reporting on it,

00:46:20.000 then sort of claiming they were misled by the White House.

00:46:23.000 Now, kind of like a sort of a picnic blanket, they're laying this oncological disaster across his deterioration so that it becomes bad taste to talk about him in terms other than sympathetic terms,

00:46:42.000 the sympathy that you'd extend to anybody dying of cancer.

00:46:47.000 Let's have a look at CNN teeing up David Axelrod to say that it's inappropriate to discuss this key detail about the Biden presidency.

00:46:56.000 If he was in the state of cognitive decline that we now know that he was in, he can't have been running the country.

00:47:00.000 Who was running the country during that period?

00:47:02.000 And how do we assess a Democrat party that was willing to run him again?

00:47:07.000 The way to stifle that conversation is by saying that those conversations are...

00:47:14.000 His medical condition now, his announced medical condition now, do you believe that silences or delays a lot of conversations about his, you know, last year and a half of his presidency for now?

00:47:32.000 Yeah, well, I mean, I think those conversations are going to happen, but they should be more muted and set aside.

00:47:42.000 For now, as he's struggling through this...

00:47:47.000 Of course you should be respectful and loving.

00:47:49.000 I mean, in a sense, those are the kind of cultural and social safeguards that have long been discarded in our shared descent into the gutter.

00:48:02.000 We've all lost our basic humanity.

00:48:05.000 And those laws, rules and protocols are only even alluded to when it's convenient to the institutions of power.

00:48:12.000 Oh, let's not talk about that anymore because it's sort of disrespectful and bad taste with Joe Biden's health deteriorating as it is.

00:48:39.000 Some of you have already guessed.

00:48:41.000 So this won't surprise you at all.

00:48:43.000 But I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has.

00:48:47.000 So I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones.

00:48:51.000 But I've had it longer than he's had it.

00:48:54.000 Well, longer than he's admitted having it.

00:48:56.000 So my life expectancy is maybe the summer.

00:49:00.000 I'd expect to be checking out from this domain sometime this summer.

00:49:07.000 Now...

00:49:08.000 He's a lovely man, Scott Adams.

00:49:10.000 He's been on the show and I'm sorry to hear of his impending demise and I wish him well and pray for him.

00:49:19.000 Okay, let's have a look at this conversation between Trump and Vladimir Putin.

00:49:26.000 Let's check it out.

00:49:27.000 But first, we have even more breaking developments from just moments ago.

00:49:31.000 We're now learning a high-stakes phone call between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

00:49:36.000 Does the news even need to look like that?

00:49:38.000 What is going on?

00:49:41.000 She's like Beyonce, standing in front of this extraordinary screen.

00:49:46.000 Russian President Vladimir Putin lasted for over two hours.

00:49:50.000 That's entertainment, isn't it?

00:49:52.000 The news became entertainment.

00:49:53.000 It was entertainment for a long, long time.

00:49:56.000 And now they can't cope with the space that they've contributed to the creation of...

00:50:01.000 Lasted for over two hours, and the president is now expected to have another phone call, this time with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

00:50:10.000 Now...

00:50:10.000 Watching us on X, we're going to jump off.

00:50:13.000 We'll talk to you over on Rumble.

00:50:15.000 Click the link in the description.

00:50:16.000 Zelensky.

00:50:16.000 Now, the talks today are just the latest attempt at peace for the two countries since both sides met face-to-face last week.

00:50:23.000 That sit-down failed to produce any results.

00:50:26.000 So let's go live now to the White House and CBS News senior White House and political correspondent Ed O 'Keefe.

00:50:31.000 Ed, what are we learning about this phone call so far?

00:50:35.000 It just ended, right?

00:50:36.000 Well, at least the Russian portion appears to be over, Elizabeth. 0.56

00:50:40.000 And we have to cite a Russian news agency here called TASS, which says that Russia favors that Putin said.

00:50:47.000 That Russia favors a peaceful resolution of the Ukraine crisis.

00:50:52.000 The Associated Press is citing Putin saying that the call with President Trump lasted two and a half hours.

00:50:58.000 Here at the White House, they have not yet confirmed or verified that to CBS News directly.

00:51:02.000 We're going to be here in a little standby mode for you, I think, Let's have a look at Trump's truth social post on that call.

00:51:09.000 Just completed my two-hour call with Putin.

00:51:11.000 I believe it went well.

00:51:12.000 Russia and Ukraine will immediately start negotiations towards a ceasefire and more importantly an end to the war.

00:51:16.000 The conditions for that will be negotiated between the two parties as it can only be because they know the details of a negotiation that nobody else will be aware of.

00:51:24.000 The tone and spirit of the conversation was excellent.

00:51:26.000 If it wasn't, I would say so now rather than later.

00:51:28.000 Russia wants to do large-scale trade with the United States when this catastrophic bloodbath...

00:51:34.000 And I agree, there's a tremendous opportunity for Russia to create massive amounts of jobs and wealth.

00:51:39.000 Its potential is unlimited.

00:51:40.000 Likewise, Ukraine can be a great beneficiary on trade in the process of rebuilding its country.

00:51:47.000 Negotiations between Russia and Ukraine will begin immediately.

00:51:50.000 I'm so informed, so let's give Ukraine, Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, Macron of France, and then some European leaders.

00:52:08.000 Okay, well, hopefully that's what's going to happen.

00:52:14.000 Trump didn't conclude the matter without a few little jokes.

00:52:21.000 He claims that Vladimir Putin...

00:52:24.000 Likes Melania more than him.

00:52:26.000 Let's have a look.

00:52:26.000 Well, I want to thank everybody.

00:52:27.000 We just spent two and a half hours talking to Vladimir Putin, and I think some progress has been made.

00:52:34.000 It's a terrible situation going on over there.

00:52:36.000 5,000 young people every single week are being killed.

00:52:41.000 So hopefully we did something.

00:52:44.000 We also spoke to the heads of most of the European nations, and we're trying to get that whole thing.

00:53:13.000 It's not good that the revenge porn headline is below that.

00:53:19.000 In that moment.

00:53:20.000 Here's Vladimir Putin talking about the same call.

00:53:48.000 There you are.

00:53:50.000 I mean, okay, I do struggle.

00:53:53.000 When it's sort of in Russian, we don't know what dear old Vladimir Putin is saying.

00:53:58.000 There they are, great chieftains of global states announcing potential peace.

00:54:03.000 I pray that it's true.

00:54:05.000 Certainly, if we're looking for resolution, we're going to have to, I imagine, get beyond the...

00:54:17.000 Intransigent dichotomy of by-party domestic politics, i.e.

00:54:22.000 Democrats v.

00:54:23.000 Republicans, forever.

00:54:25.000 Because it seems like the Democrat Party's kinda finished.

00:54:30.000 Who's gonna be the next leader of the Democrat Party?

00:54:32.000 Is it Gruesome Newsome?

00:54:34.000 Nah, man, you don't need another slick dude like that, do you?

00:54:37.000 A kind of a sort of joker meets Bill Clinton figure.

00:54:41.000 Is it gonna be AOC?

00:54:46.000 Bernie Sanders doesn't endorse her very deliberately during this conversation with Andrew Schultz, and he himself ain't going to run.

00:54:54.000 So what's the future of that party?

00:54:56.000 What's the future of all of these peculiar institutions?

00:55:00.000 Don't you think when you read Trump's Truth Social post, what he's talking about is that the lubrication between nations is trade.

00:55:12.000 Trump sees the world in terms of trade agreements.

00:55:16.000 That seems to be a perfectly amenable and reasonable modality for giant political entities to conduct their business within.

00:55:29.000 I.e., Russia have resources, America have finances, Ukraine the same to a lesser degree.

00:55:35.000 Why don't we all participate in economies and conviviality will be generated by our mutual requirements?

00:55:42.000 Except for there is a reality beyond material reality.

00:55:46.000 Now, it's not the role, I would contest, of politicians to manage the ethereal, sublime, and ultimate realities Govern our experience here.

00:56:01.000 Those are spiritual realities and we have to have spiritual mediators and we have to ourselves manage our relationship with that reality.

00:56:08.000 It's not the job of Donald Trump or anybody to deal with the way that you feel about mortality, the way that you feel about loss, the way that you feel about the inevitability of your own death.

00:56:21.000 And the inability of the material world to fulfil you.

00:56:25.000 That's not the job of politics.

00:56:27.000 But it is your ultimate problem.

00:56:31.000 Your ultimate problem is you can't cope with the fact that you're going to die one day, whoever you are.

00:56:36.000 So there's this kind of abyss, this vortex, that we're all going to have to contend with.

00:56:42.000 And how we contend with that is going to determine and define, I would reckon, this...

00:56:49.000 Peculiar dissent that we are participating in right now.

00:56:54.000 That's where we are right now.

00:56:56.000 And I see that parties like the Labour Party in the UK and the various neoliberal parties across Europe that are scrabbling to maintain power by manipulating, managing and denying the results of elections, these parties are going to fade away.

00:57:10.000 They're consuming themselves.

00:57:12.000 They're in a terrible spiral.

00:57:14.000 Are you a Boris?

00:57:15.000 Are you a Boris?

00:57:16.000 What's the serpent that's devouring Santel?

00:57:19.000 How?

00:57:20.000 Ouroboros of self-consumption.

00:57:25.000 Yes, this is what's happening.

00:57:28.000 So we're witnessing the end of neoliberalism.

00:57:31.000 Let's have a look at this.

00:57:32.000 The problem I think a lot of voters had is they didn't even know if it was her. 0.57

00:57:35.000 We didn't even know if Biden was president.

00:57:36.000 We didn't even know if these were her talking points.

00:57:38.000 And we felt that over the last four elections...

00:57:42.000 Democrats, we felt, that we didn't have a say on who could be president.

00:57:47.000 We talk a lot about the Republicans being autocrats and oligarchs and taking over democracy, but from the Democrat perspective, and I'm a lifelong Democrat, I felt like the Democratic Party completely removed the democratic process from its constituents.

00:58:02.000 And I think they need to have some accountability of that.

00:58:06.000 No argument.

00:58:07.000 I donated for you.

00:58:08.000 I wanted you to, like, 2016, I was like, this is going to happen.

00:58:12.000 This guy's going to do it.

00:58:13.000 And it felt like they stole it from me.

00:58:15.000 And I'll be honest, it broke my heart when you supported him.

00:58:19.000 Look, but you have, in the world that I live in, you've got a choice.

00:58:24.000 And, I mean, a lot of people, including my wife, agree with you.

00:58:28.000 But, you know, you're down to a choice.

00:58:31.000 Is it going to be Hillary Clinton, or is it going to be...

00:58:34.000 Donald Trump, not a great choice. 0.91

00:58:35.000 But it ended up being him anyway, so why don't we burn it down?

00:58:40.000 Well, because it's easy to say, burning it down means that children are not going to have food to eat, that the schools will deteriorate, people will not have health care.

00:58:49.000 I got it.

00:58:49.000 And I'm an elected official, I've got to represent the people.

00:58:52.000 That's fair.

00:58:52.000 And I can't turn my back on.

00:58:54.000 But then could we not also say, ostensibly, there hasn't been a fair primary for the Democrats since 2008.

00:58:59.000 Are they not also a threat to democracy?

00:59:01.000 We often hear...

00:59:02.000 Fair enough.

00:59:03.000 That is, yeah, I'm not going to argue with that point.

00:59:07.000 Good elder statesman work from Bernie.

00:59:10.000 Good questions from the flagrant team there.

00:59:14.000 Here, Sanders rules out a 2028 presidential run, doesn't endorse AOC.

00:59:20.000 And the question that I suppose that I would offer to you is, does this mean that that institution...

00:59:26.000 Is beginning to recognize its own finitude.

00:59:29.000 These things don't last forever, you know.

00:59:31.000 Nations don't last forever.

00:59:33.000 Political parties don't last forever.

00:59:35.000 The technology that we now have available means that paradigms are bursting over and being flooded out of all relevance.

00:59:45.000 It's interesting.

00:59:46.000 Are you going to run for president?

00:59:49.000 Please say it.

00:59:51.000 I'm 83 years of age, so that is...

00:59:54.000 I think I've run my last race.

00:59:56.000 Now, does that mean...

00:59:58.000 Zero fair races. 0.54

00:59:59.000 Does that mean that this oligarchy tour is you passing the baton?

01:00:04.000 No, don't look at it like that.

01:00:05.000 The oligarchy tour is...

01:00:07.000 I think we're all looking at it like that.

01:00:10.000 No, it's not a passing the baton.

01:00:12.000 I think Alexander is great.

01:00:14.000 But it's not my job to determine who the new leaders are.

01:00:19.000 People have each of them.

01:00:21.000 As I mentioned, in the House, there are a lot of great people in the Senate.

01:00:24.000 Good people.

01:00:25.000 And there are people who are not in office right now.

01:00:29.000 But the oligarchy tour was an effort to say to the country that there are people all over America who are going to stand up to this oligarchy.

01:00:43.000 They don't want a government of billionaires.

01:00:45.000 They're going to stand up to authoritarianism.

01:00:47.000 That's not what the Democrat Party means anymore.

01:00:49.000 It hasn't meant that for a long, long time.

01:00:53.000 I suppose he's a kind of remnant of a dead rhetoric.

01:00:58.000 But it goes beyond that.

01:01:01.000 It goes beyond the Democrat Party.

01:01:02.000 This is the end of the...

01:01:04.000 We're in a post-secular age.

01:01:05.000 For a minute, it seemed like the nation-state was the solution to kind of ideologically driven and zealous warring tribes.

01:01:19.000 Now we've seen that that pattern is repeated.

01:01:22.000 Have you kind of noticed, as I have done, that there seems to be some template in a nation, rather than nation, because a nation is a construct, in the kind of essence of a land?

01:01:34.000 Here's a good example of it.

01:01:36.000 Russia replaces its feudal system headed by a czar in order to instantiate its opposite, communism, but ends up replicating it.

01:01:48.000 Through state-run dictatorships in which its epitome, Stalin, becomes a kind of czar.

01:01:57.000 Len, look at monarchies like my nation where diffuse and insidious concealed powers reiterate themselves in various nefarious ways.

01:02:09.000 Or look at your country dependent on...

01:02:12.000 Bonded labor.

01:02:14.000 Look at the way it resolves and reiterates that problem.

01:02:17.000 Then that problem becomes the problem.

01:02:19.000 You can't have slavery anymore, mass migration.

01:02:21.000 You can't have mass migration anymore, AI.

01:02:23.000 You can't have that problem anymore.

01:02:25.000 You see that it's as if there's some pull.

01:02:27.000 And the only way...

01:02:29.000 To overcome it is through a peculiar surrender that it doesn't seem...

01:02:35.000 Yeah, Stalin was Georgian. 0.87

01:02:36.000 Don't be so recalcitrant pulling the strings.

01:02:38.000 Stalin was a Russian. 0.88

01:02:40.000 Don't just put the one thing you know in a chat.

01:02:43.000 I know a thing.

01:02:46.000 Contribute meaningfully to a debate.

01:02:51.000 Meaningfully.

01:02:52.000 Not pedantically.

01:02:53.000 Not through pedantry.

01:02:55.000 Endless pedantry is not debate.

01:02:58.000 All right, you lot, listen.

01:02:59.000 We're going to go over to Rumble Premium now.

01:03:02.000 We're going to throw to the quarter in.

01:03:04.000 My man, Jeremy, all of you lot at the quarter in.

01:03:07.000 Go check that.

01:03:09.000 Otherwise, stay with us on Rumble Premium.
