00:10:08.000Thanks for joining us today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
00:10:11.000We've got some extraordinary stories to cover.
00:10:14.000Of course the tragic events in Southport in my country, the UK, the connotations, implications and I suppose causes.
00:10:24.000Let's have a look at it open-mindedly and see if we can find some territory that's helpful and maybe even conciliatory for the poor grieving parents of the murdered schoolgirls who lost their lives in a Friended and dreadful attack yesterday, and how do various contributors, political and cultural, seek to gain territory or credibility from it?
00:10:46.000I'm sort of mindful of it myself when talking about something so awful.
00:10:49.000Of course, we'll also be talking about the assassination of the Hamas leader in Tehran.
00:10:55.000That's really interesting and potentially hugely Incendiary story given the nature of the assassination.
00:11:04.000We'll also be looking in some detail, let me know what you think about this, at the potential coup or electoral or election interference in Venezuela and who benefits.
00:11:16.000It's so hard now to track Just exactly how the system, the blob, the deep state is manipulating things.
00:11:27.000Just when I think I've understood it, there's a new layer to it.
00:11:29.000Thankfully there are also somewhat sensational stories involving political candidates that sort of at least give you a kind of scintillating kick and are about human beings.
00:11:41.000So they're kind of Easier to understand because they involve themes like, I don't know, vanity and self-centeredness and things that are identifiable and easy to understand.
00:11:50.000Listen, if you're not an awakened wonder yet, if you're not a member of our locals community, but consider becoming one.
00:11:55.000We do additional content and I suppose, tell me if you think this is interesting.
00:11:59.000We do, like, Bible studies and prayer and meditation, but also cultural analysis, stuff like stand-up comedy, and you get early access to some of the conversations I have with other contributors, like Adam Carolla, who I was talking to, like, about a week ago.
00:12:12.000In fact, I'm going on his show later today.
00:12:16.000He's a sort of, you know, hey, if anyone's the podfather, it's Adam Carolla.
00:12:21.000Listen, we're going to be on YouTube, if you're watching us there, for about 10 minutes, but then you're going to have to click the link in the description and join us over on Rumble.
00:12:28.000Generally, it's because we can speak more freely there.
00:12:31.000They are non-sensorial, except with regard to matters for which there are already laws.
00:12:37.000Hate speech, you know, incendiary, invective, I suppose, would already be covered by legislation, but they don't create new corporatized ways of generating the conditions for censorship, such as you suspect goes on in global big tech platforms such as YouTube, Alphabet, particularly when you see the way they're sort of censoring even pretty regular stories.
00:13:02.000Let's have a look first of all about the assassination of this Hamas leader, then we're going to cover with as much Sensitivity as possible, the murder of those poor little girls in Southport in the UK.
00:13:15.000Alright, let's get into this first story and then what we'll try to do is throughout it, see if we can create some sense of cohesion or do we just have to yield to the idea that the world is Irretrievably and irrevocably chaotic the order rests upon chaos and that chaos will claim us back as surely as if it were some subaquatic beast waiting to devour us.
00:13:40.000Let's have a look first though about the assumed Mossad assassination of a Hamas leader in Tehran and see Whether or not this will lead us to peace or potentially an all-consuming global war which now appears to have Russia-Ukraine as a front, the Middle East potentially a war involving Iran as a front, maybe even Venezuela is part of this and certainly you know that escalating tensions between the US and China over Taiwan is a front and I have the sense
00:14:14.000Amateur, though I am, that this is a kind of pre-First World War period, where there are these peculiar axes and alliances, these resource-based interests, these surging forces of dominion, coalescing and organizing, This time, though, the technology is not the advance of industry as it was in World War I, but these kind of communicative technologies and the bizarre connotations of bewilderment where you can't even have a simple global celebration of sport without it seeming somehow oddly nihilistic.
00:14:54.000But let's have a look, first of all, at this assassination in Tehran.
00:15:28.000It said the raid took place after he had attended the inauguration of the new Iranian president.
00:15:33.000Ismail Hanir had been leading negotiations with Israel and his death is likely to affect any chances of progress.
00:15:39.000A Hamas official described the assassination as a grave escalation that will not go unpunished.
00:15:45.000So he was leading the diplomatic and potential peaceful resolution to a conflict which, whatever side of it you are on, is just a draining, ghouling, ghoulish exercise in total despair that I have to be honest, I sometimes just turn away from because I'm unable to conceptualise or deal with it.
00:16:11.000Something as dreadful as events in Southport where Three children are murdered seems although almost overwhelming if you think about it of course it's not an ongoing continual desecration an ongoing set of deaths and tragedies such as any war would generate and as is likely to continue for some time in the various fronts of what increasingly looks like a like a world war and when you
00:16:44.000Think about how much we've been consumed by the emergence of Kamala Harris, the extraordinary giddying carousel of American events, the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, the debate, the post-debate fallout, the sudden positioning of Kamala, which we'll cover in some degree a little later, by the way.
00:17:34.000We've just... All of our lights and monitors went off.
00:17:39.000So it's a sort of a new condition for me.
00:17:41.000But what I wanted to tell you about is that diplomacy, which...
00:17:45.000These are just three syllables for kindness, communication, love and connection.
00:17:51.000It has fallen by the wayside and it becomes clear how that's happened when you watch, as I recently did, the new Chief Diplomat for the UN describing... No, she's from the EU, who doesn't even appear to understand the concept of diplomacy itself.
00:18:13.000Obviously, I don't think I'm about to play that clip for you for a little while because we're experiencing some technical abilities here.
00:19:24.000While we're caught up in this sort of charade and spectacle of American domestic politics, which is extraordinary and exciting and bewildering, giddying soap opera, Don't you sound sick?
00:19:36.000Bloody hell, these Middle Eastern wars are continuing.
00:19:39.000The assassination of Ismail Haniyeh is a reminder of that.
00:19:43.000And also, of course, Ukraine-Russia is continuing.
00:19:46.000You're continuing to fund it, people are continuing to die, and it's likely to go on for some considerable time yet, because the people in charge of diplomacy at the EU, Asset 31 guys, just across the page, don't seem to understand What the word diplomacy even actually means.
00:20:05.000Have a listen to her talking about Vladimir Putin and like, you can't talk to Vladimir Putin, there's no point in it.
00:20:12.000But you do need to talk to people if you're trying to avert, avoid, curtail or limit war and death.
00:20:25.000I mean, I'm a lawyer by profession and I looked up the definition of war crimes and genocide for that matter.
00:20:34.000And it is the willingness to get rid of, you know, part... Also look up...
00:20:40.000...the word diplomacy next time you got your dictionary open.
00:20:44.000It's going to involve conversation with people that you don't currently agree.
00:20:48.000But, at some point just talk to people you agree with.
00:20:51.000...part of the nation or a whole nation.
00:20:55.000And he has expressed this will, his intention, he has done steps for this, and he's a war criminal.
00:21:04.000And if you say that there is no outcome of talking to him, then why talk to him?
00:21:11.000Because I feel, I don't see into his head of course and into Gremlin's walls, but I feel that if everybody is constantly calling him, he doesn't get the message that he's isolated.
00:21:25.000So if we want to get him the message through that actually you're isolated, don't call him.
00:21:31.000Oh well, so these wars are likely to continue to get worse.
00:21:36.000More and more people will die, more and more money will get spent.
00:21:39.000The people that have been specifically employed in the discipline of diplomacy don't understand the meaning of the word.
00:21:49.000So it's nice to know that while these assassinations are taking place, While these military exercises are taking place, while people are dying across the world, no one is considering that the solution might involve talking to people with whom you have grievance and conflict.
00:22:04.000We're going to leave YouTube now, so click the link in the description.
00:22:08.000We're going to talk a little more about the Kamala Harris campaign.
00:22:10.000We're going to talk about the complexity of Venezuela and the ongoing CIA involvement in that region.
00:22:15.000And firstly, we're going to talk about my country, Southport, the murder of three children.
00:22:22.000I suppose, you know, I feel bad because like, you know, of course when you're talking about war, death, anywhere, it shouldn't be regional and geographical, should it?
00:22:28.000But I guess it's the summer holidays here, my kids are in clubs like that, and you're sort of suddenly reminded that death is nearby.
00:22:35.000Click the link in the description, join us as we try to understand this extraordinary time.
00:22:40.000So, if you're watching us in the UK, you'll be aware of this story already.
00:22:45.000If you're not watching us in the UK, you'll be I guess you'll perhaps be aware because of the ongoing stories in countries like the United States and France that centre around unease and disruption when it comes to the subject of migration.
00:23:02.000This story has already caused a lot of controversy with many people saying that the identity of the murderer ought be made public and various conflicting claims made about the identity of the young man who's Evidently a minor.
00:23:18.000This country, like many countries, already is starting to feel like a tinderbox.
00:23:22.000Feels like things could go off at any moment.
00:23:24.000There's been rioting in Leeds, there's been rioting overnight in Southport, there's been rioting recently in Dublin.
00:23:33.000Many of these riots centre around real or perceived grievances around the subject of migration, which in itself, however you carve it up, Is a consequence of globalism.
00:23:45.000Let's have a look at this tragic story with as much clear-sightedness as we can muster with the bewilderment and beleaguered state induced by such tragic events and see if we can understand some of the complexity of a story like this and whether or not anything conciliatory can be plucked from the ashes of such a dreadful, dreadful tale.
00:24:06.000Let's have a look now firstly at some of the Uh, riots has been taking place.
00:24:11.000Uh, the people have already, like, in their chat saying, you know, it's not a minor, evidence suggests the opposite.
00:24:16.000People talking about numerous stabbings.
00:24:18.000And, I guess when you, look, do you note that there's a sort of... Note in yourself whether or not you have an appetite to have a certain perception of this or any other story.
00:24:29.000You know, like, my view will be coloured by the fact that I'm English, that I have daughters of the age of these girls.
00:24:35.000All of that stuff will play into my perspective.
00:24:37.000I wonder what can happen when we observe these tendencies, and that's in particular what we'll be looking at, because already we know that when it comes to the subject of migration, which is generally regarded as an issue of the right, there are globalist and centrist interests that can strongly benefit from fear around migration as well.
00:26:01.000As some locals rage, the families of the girls mourn.
00:26:05.000In Southport, England, Jessica Millward, Nine News.
00:26:09.000Let's have a look at the new Prime Minister of the UK, Keir Starmer, laying a wreath, a necessary ritual in a tragic event of this nature.
00:26:20.000And on the point of the age of the currently arrested individual, I wonder if we can get confirmation of the fact if, whether or not, Keir Starmer, while when head of the CPS, rescinded anonymity for people tried in those riots.
00:26:41.000We heard that when Keir Starmer was head of the Crown Prosecution Service, minors who rioted during that period were denied the usual right of anonymity granted to minors in order to maximally publicize Their arrests, persecution and often incarceration because at that point the agenda was to use the power of the judiciary to generate fear and control.
00:27:12.000We've got that article somewhere, I'd just like to confirm that over the course of the next few minutes and let's have a look first of all at Keir Starmer laying a wreath and there's obviously and understandably a good deal of tension and rage and Agony and grief in the community where the events took place.
00:27:56.000Okay guys, I'm gonna then, I'm gonna just look at this post so can you put my deck onto the other page? Thank you.
00:28:02.000Now there are sort of a series of reactions to the event.
00:28:07.000And it's really curious because these are the kind of commentators that in my country get significantly censored.
00:28:17.000I'm going to start with this post from David Icke.
00:28:20.000Now David Icke is, I mean, he's one of the most heavily censored individuals in the world.
00:28:25.000Many of you will have heard his theories on interdimensional beings, reptilians, cults, a lot of, you know, pretty esoteric stuff which I've spoken to with, you know, because I'm fascinated by David Icke and Alex Jones, in a way many of us exist in territory that they, for good or ill, forged.
00:28:47.000But when it comes to his reaction to this story, have a look!
00:28:52.000So, you know, first of all he sort of outlines the idea that power benefits when ordinary people are in conflict.
00:29:01.000He also talks about a commonly understood idea in many, say, right-wing or online circles, if that moniker is no longer appropriate, That there is a tendency or even plan to use migration to create disruption.
00:29:39.000And then instigate trigger events to create uncivil war between them and the indigenous culture.
00:29:45.000Now I know a lot of you will be sympathetic to that idea.
00:29:47.000I've heard Alex Jones talk about ideas like that.
00:29:49.000Tucker Carlson has been attacked, hasn't he, for talking about replacement theory.
00:29:53.000Remember when he was in Australia and that journalist said, oh, the replacement of white individuals?
00:29:57.000And Tucker said, no, no, it's not just white individuals, it's Blue-collar or working-class people.
00:30:03.000Now, when I had a conversation with George Galloway, who's very much a figure of the left and very pro-Muslim, I think you'd agree, he said that when migration impacts the ability of working people to earn a good wage, then it's a problem that wherever you sit on the political spectrum you should be interested.
00:30:21.000And that's before we get into The kind of ideas that are obviously powerful motivators in resurgent nationalist movements like the EDL in this country.
00:30:32.000Where we'll take this in a minute, which I think you'll be fascinated to learn about, is how we get from David Icke into Tony Blair.
00:30:39.000And how Tony Blair, and everything that he represents for it, if there is a face...
00:30:45.000For if there is a face of globalism, it may yet be Tony Blair's face.
00:30:52.000He uses this idea of migration, not in association with these tragic events, but in a general way, to legitimise the idea of digital IDs more generally.
00:31:11.000We are in a classic divide and rule in which the two sides, this is still Ike's post, manipulated by the same force, are brought into conflict to create chaos and mayhem.
00:31:26.000Let's see if there are more conflagrations and more riots as grieved people try to grapple with pretty serious events.
00:31:36.000Let's see if there's that kind of martial or prohibitive response.
00:31:41.000Two, generate widespread fear and anger.
00:31:44.000And three, have the sides so focused on fighting each other that they don't see the strings attached to both held by the same hand.
00:31:51.000Both sides are being played by a hidden hand via puppet governments with mass immigration that has transformed western cities with the incoming cultures.
00:31:58.000Now, certainly, now we're moving back in the territory that classic pundits of the right been commenting on for a long while whether you're talking
00:32:07.000about PJW or Alex Jones or Tucker whether you're talking about independent media or
00:32:12.000even more contemporary media or even now if you're talking about a purportedly centre-left political
00:32:19.000leader although that's sort of difficult to claim like Keir Starmer saying that migration is out of
00:32:25.000control so of course a figure like Nigel Farage would say he's not going to do anything about
00:32:29.000it or when we saw Joe Biden when he was still president remember that a million years
00:32:34.000ago emulating Trump's border policies although of course what people on the right would say is
00:32:39.000yeah they're using that rhetoric but they'll never deploy that policy
00:32:42.000When it comes to rhetoric, at least, everyone acknowledges that migration is a problem.
00:32:48.000It seems that there is less inclination, isn't there?
00:32:52.000Would you agree to sort of say, oh, no, come on, we have to have open borders and we have to Protect one another.
00:32:58.000Even though the values of compassion and kindness are hugely significant, defining even, it's starting to seem like the problems that migration generates are very serious and have to be addressed.
00:33:11.000We're starting to see some incredible consequences.
00:33:13.000Not that I am at this point suggesting that this particular story is related to that, because we still don't have conclusive evidence, but more generally you can see how the kind of unrest that Ike is describing here is becoming either much more prevalent or is being discussed a lot more.
00:33:33.000We'll work that out over the next few minutes as well as best we can.
00:33:37.000This has been coldly calculated for decades, especially since the Blair era which set out to culturally change Britain in a way that was irreversible.
00:33:45.000The focus should be directed at those in political power and their masters in the shadows who have made this happen and go on doing so.
00:33:53.000Cultures from other lands need to respect the culture they enter and not, as some do, seek to usurp it and impose their own.
00:34:01.000If you go on doing that, then uncivil war is inevitable.
00:34:04.000Both sides have been put in this situation by a cult that hates them.
00:34:08.000Whether white or brown, you're all just human trash to the cult.
00:34:12.000We have to find common ground and realize that we are being played off against each other For an agenda that involves the fascist control of all of us.
00:34:20.000Both sides need to realise there is a common foe and find common cause in responding to that.
00:34:24.000If we don't, we ain't seen nothing yet.
00:34:27.000I suppose what Ike is suggesting is that civil unrest will be used to justify further social controls and civilian management, as well as, as he says in that post, distracting us from the possibility that there are central authorities that benefit from these disputes.
00:34:44.000It's difficult, isn't it, to go into that kind of territory when at the very core of this issue are three murdered children.
00:34:51.000But there's another post here from a pundit and commentator in our country, Majid Nawaz, talking about, in a sense, taking on similar themes in response to this post.
00:35:04.000She's Leilani Dowding responding to the rioting.
00:35:08.000He says, The same nefarious parties who condemned rioting in Hare Hills by lawless immigrants in our country are provoking lawless rioting in Southport because of immigrants.
00:35:27.000Now many of us, many of the viewers, many of our community will be, I suppose, Ensnared, enraptured, captured by the details of this horrific crime, even though they are still details upon which most people are speculating.
00:36:05.000Because when Ram Dass talks about the feelings of grief that any parent who's lost a child will understand, it's kind of... God, it's an attempt to connect you with the spiritual resources that people are going to require in times like this, particularly if these kind of things are going to become more prevalent.
00:36:19.000While we learn more about whoever committed those murders, it's important, I think, to bear in mind the potential for control afforded to those in authority when countries fall into dispute and unrest.
00:36:37.000Let's have a look at Tony Blair, who plainly is a good embodiment of that.
00:36:42.000Digital ID for me is a very big part of the future, and let me explain why.
00:36:48.000So your digital ID can play a part in COVID, but also if you think of the transactions that you want to do now with your customers, it's much simpler for them if they have a digital identity.
00:37:03.000Well, you take the big issue in the Western world today, which is, you know, quite apart from COVID, I would say is worries about immigration, who has the right to be in your country, who has the right not to be.
00:37:15.000Without a form of identity, it's very hard to tell who's got a right to be in a country who's not.
00:37:20.000So, inevitably, governments are going to move in this direction.
00:37:37.000Commerce or civil unrest, digital ID and civilian management is a good idea.
00:37:43.000Here's Tony Bear on the subject of immigration.
00:37:46.000There are genuine concerns about immigration.
00:37:48.000Concerns about, particularly, frankly, and again you've got to be honest about this on the left if you want to deal with the problem, there's an anxiety about people coming in from Muslim countries as to whether they are truly going to integrate with society or whether you might have security or problems to do with extremism coming in on the back of it.
00:38:08.000If you literally just say, well, it's too difficult, I don't want to have that conversation, fine, but then you're not having the conversation that your people are having.
00:38:18.000How do you imagine these events afford opportunity to people whose focus is nation-first politics?
00:38:28.000Let's have a look at Nigel Farage's response to this.
00:38:30.000You know, Nigel Farage and I spoke briefly at the Republican National Congress.
00:38:36.000And when it comes to the issue of massive centralised bureaucracies and mass migration, Nigel Farage is obviously a significant voice, whether you agree with him or not.
00:38:47.000Let's have a look at Nigel Farage's response to this.
00:38:50.000Well it's pretty horrendous, the third young girl has died as a result of the stabbings yesterday in Southport.
00:38:55.000I obviously join everybody in my horror at what has happened.
00:39:00.000The Prime Minister went to lay flowers and was heckled and it shows you how unhappy the public are with the state of law and order in our country.
00:39:08.000I have to say there are one or two questions.
00:39:11.000Was this guy being monitored by the security services?
00:39:15.000Some reports say he was, others less sure.
00:39:19.000The police say it's a non-terror incident.
00:39:22.000Just as they said the stabbing of an army lieutenant colonel in uniform on the streets of Kent the other day was a non-terror incident.
00:39:30.000Something's changed about the agenda of the establishment.
00:39:33.000When I was younger, 10, 20 years ago, There was always an appetite to frame violence as terror.
00:39:43.000It was, I suppose, I don't know what was ordered.
00:39:47.000Like, this incident is likely related to terror, this migrant community are terrorists.
00:39:54.000There was a real appetite in mainstream media to frame stories in that way.
00:40:00.000It seems subsequent to the Iraq wars and perhaps the agenda having been met when it comes to excursions and incursions into the Middle East.
00:41:56.000It's an interesting piece of pageantry, isn't it?
00:41:59.000And it sort of shows you that there is a type of dreadful theatre associated with these events and what people will be thirsting is a response that somehow makes sense to an event that probably can't ever make sense.
00:42:15.000Just to a point that we were discussing earlier, many of you will know, some of you won't, that prior to his political ascendancy, Keir Starmer had a position within the Crown Prosecution Service.
00:42:27.000That's like being the Attorney General in the United States of America, who's in charge of the prosecution side of the judiciary.
00:42:34.000Now we've mentioned before That about 10 years ago there were a lot of riots in our country that were provoked by the death in custody of a young man.
00:42:43.000And there were a series of show trials to arrest, prosecute and imprison the perpetrators, I believe, in order to impose civil order and to show that the government was in control.
00:42:56.000You let me know what you think it all meant, but here's just a sort of an update on what we were talking about earlier.
00:43:01.000The Crown Prosecution Service, led at that time by Keir Starmer, immediately relaxed the threshold used to determine whether or not to press charges against minors.
00:43:11.000I mention that only in the event that the murderer in this instance is a minor.
00:43:17.000Long-standing advice, but suspects Under the age of 18, should not be tried for minor offences, was suspended.
00:43:24.000Okay, so they sort of relaxed that understanding even if it wasn't legislatively intransigent.
00:43:32.000It sounds like there was a degree of flexibility because it says long-standing advice rather than laws or regulations.
00:43:37.000Actions normally regarded as theft were treated as burglary so as to ensure maximum jail time.
00:43:43.000Cases were pushed from magistrates courts to crown courts ensuring that longer sentences were available and costing minors their right to anonymity in the press right as it goes from magistrate to crown.
00:43:54.000So I'm only raising that point because of the anonymity currently afforded to the suspect
00:44:01.000innocent until proven guilty in this terrible, awful, this dreadful, heartbreaking case.
00:44:07.000And just to sort of show you how even law, which we think of as being something permanent
00:44:14.000But I'm going to have to explain that to you if you're American because you'll be familiar
00:44:17.000with the term lawfare and how the law is frequently mobilised as a resource.
00:44:23.000So while as a parent and as a human being at the moment it's difficult to tackle or
00:44:28.000grapple with the murder of three young girls and what the cultural implications of it and
00:44:32.000what the unravelling and analysis of it might lead us to.
00:44:36.000What we can be alert to, as well as I'm sure a roster of other issues, is the potential of the state and existing authority to exploit this event eventually to legitimise Further power and civilian control.
00:44:51.000In just the way you might say that even if you take a very generous analysis of the coronavirus pandemic, health crises can be exploited to legitimise control.
00:45:00.000People become more malleable and willing to accept overt measures of control when they're frightened, divided or full of hate.
00:45:08.000And I suppose that's when we have to assess our own ability ...to remain, particularly if we're not directly affected like the poor grieving parent and others affected by the death of these three children, to...
00:45:23.000To a degree, stay connected to some kind of perspicacity and some kind of faith.
00:45:29.000Even though at a time like this, it's obviously extremely difficult.

00:47:23.000You know what I liked in the conversation with Adam Carolla, guys?
00:47:26.000I like the bit where... Dear Adam Carolla, what numbers are you on?
00:47:34.000I like it when Adam Carolla talked about authoritarianism in coronavirus.
00:47:39.000We're just talking about it when there's matters of civil unrest, when it's really difficult for people to not get mired in very visceral issues.
00:47:48.000Well, here's Adam Carolla talking about authoritarianism during Covid.
00:47:54.000That they find ways to justify authority?
00:47:58.000I believe that COVID was a test to see who wanted authority the most.
00:48:05.000And there are certain states where the people in charge went, you know, it's not my business to shut down the beaches, and it's not my business to shut down schools, or lock you in your house, or force you to wear a mask, or force you to get a vaccination.
00:48:49.000Have a look at the social media chat in there, you guys.
00:48:52.000Right, in a minute we'll talk about Venezuela and whether or not Venezuela is about to become, one, another CIA coup state, and two, whether or not it's a part of the escalating World War Three narrative that's sprawling about all around us and includes, I mean, it's complex.
00:49:14.000I suppose World Wars are going to be a little like that.
00:49:18.000Let's have a little bit of fun and a little bit of lightness in increasingly what seems like a mad, dark world, simply enjoying the tendency of politicians to adapt their personality based on the audience they're speaking to.
00:49:33.000Kamala Harris, early days of the campaign, out there I think in Atlanta, trying out some new accents.
00:49:42.000And you all helped us win in 2020 and we're gonna do it again in 2024!
00:51:34.000Hey, what about, um, because it's weird, isn't it?
00:51:36.000Because I suppose Culturally, the conditions have been created where entertainment has this weight and freight and significance and power, and then we kind of find it ridiculous when that power is deployed.
00:51:48.000It's customarily referred to as soft power, a good example being the cultural powers that emerge out of Japan.
00:51:53.000It's economic power, it's power of commodity, because Japan has been, at various times, stymied as a result of various measures post the Second World War from engaging in military hard power.
00:52:05.000But soft power is always kind of daft, Especially when you see it in militarily mighty nations like America, here is soft power at play.
00:52:15.000When I was at the RNC and saw the Hulk Hogan moment, I thought, wow, this is so extraordinary that this is what politics looks like now.
00:52:22.000And I anticipated, and indeed was rewarded for that anticipation, because obviously the legacy media are like, What?
00:53:16.000I suppose it's just the rapper endorsing a presidential candidate.
00:53:25.000Maybe I suppose in the, like, old days, maybe if it was, I don't know, if it was Abraham Lincoln campaigning, there'd have been someone with a bugle.
00:53:39.000Like, even our propaganda in our country, just contemporaneously, UK endorsements and propaganda always look less good, either than the sort of trashy gaudiness of a Hulk Hogan endorsement.
00:54:36.000This campaign has already gotten pretty nasty.
00:54:39.000I think people expected it to get nasty now that there is a new head of that Democratic ticket.
00:54:43.000It's the vice president, Kamala Harris.
00:54:45.000You know, you have joked before that politics is way nastier than sports or the UFC, but what we're seeing—I mean, there's a labeling of the vice president as a DEI hire.
00:54:55.000You yourself have prided yourself on giving both men and women opportunities at your organization.
00:55:01.000What do you think of this message that attacks the race and gender of an opponent?
00:55:07.000Yeah, I don't judge people by their politics and, you know, who they vote for or any of that stuff.
00:56:28.000And as voters, what we need to do is cut through all the BS and you have to look at Who do you think is best fit to run the country for the next four years?
00:57:45.000There's an endless sort of attempt to mobilize every single story into an issue that can be used to increase the power of one side and diminish the authority of the other.
00:57:55.000I mean, it's just absolutely exhausting.
00:57:58.000And a Christian principle like You are all saved due to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and by the tribunal of our Lord.
00:58:08.000None of you are better than each other.
00:58:09.000None of you are worse than each other.
00:58:11.000Forget quarrelling about that or quibbling for status amidst one another.
00:58:16.000And this, by the way, outside of Christianity, you could look at that materialistically, rationally and cosmologically and say in infinite space, what the hell are we arguing about which particular molecule has the shiniest new shoes?
00:58:28.000But from a Christian perspective, there is a kind of a beauty and a grace in it that the creator of the simulation came on inside of the simulation and said, Hey!
00:58:43.000Get out of this mad tribal crap and stop setting up altars to force gods of ego or greed or sex, all sorts of things that I myself have worshipped at at various points.
00:58:53.000You know, when you see even Dana White just going, oh, it's like he's exhausted.
00:58:57.000And he's sort of clearly, I mean, he spoke at the RNC, so I'm guessing he's a Trump supporter on that basis alone.
00:59:04.000But it does seem more reasonable than the arena within which he's speaking.
00:59:10.000Like, it's like the UFC It's not as violent as the media auditorium in which we're all conducting our discourse.
00:59:45.000The G is for gravity, the Defy is for life.

01:01:29.000Venezuela has been one of those countries that keeps cropping up on lists as potential American enemies and you always wonder what is it that, you know, I don't know, North Korea, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, what Is it that's attracting the enmity and condemnation of America or more particularly American deep state or blob interest?
01:01:55.000Why is it that people are doubting the outcome of their most recent election?
01:01:59.000And What exactly is going on under the ground in Venezuela that means that the American state and establishment is interfering in their elections and potentially trying to install a government?
01:02:24.000Let's have a look at the various Latin American, Central American countries that have had CIA intervention and coups in the last, I don't know, 50, 60, maybe 80 years.
01:02:55.0001964, Peru, 1968, Chile, 1973, Uruguay, 1973, Argentina, 1976, and Venezuela in 2002.
01:03:07.000Many of these were perceived as ideologically opposed to the United States, were leftist
01:03:12.000dictatorships or some combination of the two.
01:03:16.000Okay, what's interesting is that the legacy media are reporting on this story in a way that suggests, at least an ex-user implied, That the CIA must be involved.
01:03:32.000It's pretty interesting because when you look at like say Ukraine or Taiwan or Venezuela, they're always territories that have some sort of economic, mineral or commodity advantage.
01:03:47.000Like Taiwan, it's to do with them semiconductors, isn't it?
01:04:08.000Poor bastards are being denied democracy.
01:04:11.000We gotta deliver, we gotta ship democracy to them in little tin cans, if that's what it takes.
01:04:16.000Here's The Legacy Media reporting on this story, and I guess let's try and pick out the agenda from what we can glean from their narrative, from counter-narratives, and also, importantly, the history of CIA interventionism.
01:04:31.000Breaking tonight, chaos in Caracas, Venezuela.
01:04:34.000The political... Can you imagine that news anchor in sort of any other context?
01:04:39.000Like, she's... I don't mean to be critical of her as a human being, I can see she's married, she's got a husband, probably she's got family and all those kind of things, and I'm just saying, like, she's so obviously a news anchor that I can't imagine her being anything else at any other time, but she must be, she must be like when you're a kid and you see a teacher in a grocery store and you say, wow, sir, I didn't know you existed out of this context, but of course they do, and so does she.
01:05:01.000Turmoil unleashed after Nicolas Maduro claimed victory in the South American
01:05:06.000country's presidential election. There are widespread accusations of fraud with
01:05:10.000the US and other countries casting doubt on the results.
01:05:14.000CBS's Lilia Luciano is the only US network correspondent inside Venezuela.
01:05:21.000Thousands of demonstrators are taking to the streets across Venezuela tonight to protest what they say is an attempt by
01:05:28.000Nicolas Maduro to steal the country's election.
01:05:31.000Venezuela's strongman Nicolás Maduro has claimed victory for a third term, despite exit polls showing challenger Edmundo González ahead by more than 30 points.
01:05:41.000The international community has joined those calls for transparency, as they did in Maduro's last disputed election win in 2018.
01:05:49.000There's a really good video of him, though, sort of going, we can't trust America!
01:05:53.000America assassinate their own presidents!
01:05:56.000They tried to kill Donald Trump the other day!
01:05:58.000You know, it's funny, because now, because of the way that media works, we can see this dude, like, saying stuff, and also because of how media works, there's all of this availability of archive, as well.
01:06:09.000Now, Andy Blinken, he sort of told us, like, he did a sort of a veiled diplomatic threat.
01:06:14.000The world is watching, so you bastards better Do another election or just put someone in charge that we like and give us that goddamn oil.
01:06:22.000I don't like thinking of it down there bubbling away.
01:06:24.000Dirty, stinking, sweet stuff down there inaccessible to our interests and our elected global leaders and partners.
01:06:31.000Let's jump now, in fact, to the text story on Asset 42.
01:06:39.000This is sort of a bit more of a breakdown of the event.
01:06:43.000Okay, so this is from, you lot will love this because it's from the World Socialist Worker, and what I'm fascinated to see now is that anti-establishment discourse from right across the spectrum is starting to line up very nicely because in the end it doesn't really matter what you believe if you believe in autonomy and the ability for individuals and communities to be run based on the will of an electorate, You're cool, aren't you?
01:07:07.000Would you care how people are running their lives in Senegal or Reykjavik as long as you're left alone?
01:07:12.000I mean, I don't... In a response clearly coordinated beforehand, US imperialism is instead using the elections in Venezuela to escalate its efforts for regime change, like happened in Ukraine in 2014, I guess.
01:07:23.000Washington has repeatedly employed ...failed attempts to kidnap and kill the Venezuelan leadership, brutal sanctions to starve the population into submission, and threats of a military invasion.
01:07:33.000All aimed at pressuring sections of the Venezuelan military and ruling circles to oust the United Socialist Party of Venezuela.
01:07:41.000The key to understanding the political crisis in Venezuela, ah good, this is good, is that neither the PSUV regime, US imperialism, nor its proxies give a second thought to the democratic will of the Venezuelan people or to resolving the humanitarian catastrophe.
01:07:55.000All contenders in the election represent factions of the capitalist class associated with foreign powers that are squabbling over access to the profits from exploiting Venezuelan workers and dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun the world's Largest oil reserves!
01:08:10.000Well, what a surprise it is to learn that that's happening.
01:08:15.000The overall strategy of Washington was summed up in plain terms by Jeff Ramsey of the Atlantic Council.
01:08:20.000Is that one of those names you're starting to recognise now?
01:08:24.000One of those think tanks that probably gets some taxpayer money but also some corporate funding that have the ear of certain political and lobbying interests.
01:08:33.000Like, many people will talk about Project 2025 and say, like, oh no, what are they going to try and do?
01:08:37.000What kind of ethos are they going to try and instil in the event that there's a Republican government?
01:08:41.000Well, groups like the Atlantic Council Business as usual, that's what they're always doing.
01:08:45.000And while we're caught up in the sort of drama of American domestic politics, which is, let's face it, totally fascinating, the global stage is continuing to incrementally edge us towards war on numerous fronts.
01:08:58.000So there it is, the Atlantic Council, a think tank with close ties to the US intelligence apparatus.
01:09:07.000Maduro has to convince the ruling elite that he can keep things under control, but both he and the military No, that he can't govern a country in flames.
01:09:15.000He's effectively inviting the biggest loyalty test he's faced in years.
01:09:18.000I doubt Venezuelan elites are eager for six more years of repression, sanctions, and economic catastrophe.
01:09:23.000I mean, it's not a good slogan, is it?
01:09:29.000The threat of international action beyond the sanctions, by the way, just check how many of the migrants coming across the border are from Venezuela.
01:09:37.000I don't know, but the more that you disrupt Venezuela and participate in regime change, the more likely it is that the migrant crisis will increase.
01:09:48.000So would you say that border security ought be matched in policy with non-interventionism by the CIA and deep state and Not allowing nominally American but globalist companies to exploit the resources of countries like Venezuela or wherever the hell, Ukraine.
01:10:07.000You can bet that prior to that war or this war there are a set of interests that are informed of advantages and likely fluctuations in currency values and all stuff that I don't claim to fully understand but I tell you who does, George Soros.
01:10:20.000The threat of international action beyond the sanctions that have already devastated the Venezuelan economy poses a real threat that a new front of the expanding third world war will erupt in Latin America.
01:10:31.000For US NATO imperialism, Venezuela is already a key battlefield in its efforts to undermine, get ready for these names, Russia.
01:11:09.000It's, in a way, good that it's Latin America because I think we've all understood from narratives that emerge out of the left that deep state or GERD regime change is as common there as well.
01:11:23.000It seems to me that war in Venezuela, or regime change in Venezuela, or opportunities for economic exploitation in Venezuela, in some form or another, will be happening over the next couple of weeks.
01:11:35.000Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
01:11:38.000And if you ain't had enough of this yet, we're gonna stick around now with our Awakened Wonders, like Negligent Banana or How I Love Ya, to talk a little more about the news.
01:11:47.000And on the show tomorrow, we got Neil Oliver.
