Summary

In this episode of Stay Free With Russell Brand, Russell Brand takes a look at the tragic events in Southport, England, and the assassination of Hamas leader Ayatollah Mosaddeel Mansour in Tehran, Iran, as well as the potential coup in Venezuela and the murder of the poor, grieving parents of the schoolgirl victims in the Southport schoolgirl's attack, and asks the question: what does the deep state have in mind when it comes to such things as mass murder, and why is it so keen to have them covered in the mainstream media? And what role does it play in creating a sense of cohesion and order in the midst of chaos? And is there any chance that we can learn from the events of Southport and Tehran, and make sense of them in terms of what they really mean and how they affect us all? Stay Free with Russell Brand!

00:00:00.000 Hello you Awakening Wonders there on Spotify, Apple, Stink Whistle, Gurgle Dot, or wherever you download your podcasts these days to remain at least peripherally connected to some tendril of truth in a bewildering miasma of lies and propaganda.

00:01:02.000 Now please enjoy this episode of Stay Free with Russell Brand.
00:01:05.000 Thanks.
00:01:06.000 Hello there, you awakening wonders.
00:01:17.000 Thanks for joining us today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
00:01:20.000 We've got some extraordinary stories to cover.
00:01:22.000 Of course, the tragic events in Southport, in my country, the UK, the connotations, implications, and I suppose causes.
00:01:32.000 Let'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 and I'm sort of mindful of it myself when talking about something so awful.
00:01:58.000 Of course we'll also be talking about the assassination of the Hamas leader in Tehran.
00:02:03.000 That's really interesting and potentially hugely Incendiary story given the nature of the assassination.
00:02:13.000 We'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.
00:02:25.000 It's so hard now to track Just exactly how the system, the blob, the deep state is manipulating things.
00:02:32.000 It's become increasingly complicated.
00:02:35.000 Just when I think I've understood it, there's a new layer to it.
00:02:38.000 Thankfully there are also somewhat sensational stories involving political candidates that sort of at least Just give you a kind of scintillating kick about human beings so 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.
00:02:58.000 Listen, if you're not an awakened wonder yet, if you're not a member of our locals community, but consider becoming one.
00:03:03.000 We do additional content and I suppose, tell me if you think this is interesting, we do like Bible studies and prayer and meditation but also cultural analysis, stuff like stand-up comedy.
00:03:13.000 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.
00:03:20.000 In fact, I'm going on his show later today.
00:03:22.000 And I really enjoy Adam Carolla.
00:03:24.000 He's a sort of, you know, hey, if anyone's the podfather, it's Adam Carolla.
00:03:29.000 Listen, 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.
00:03:36.000 Generally, it's because we can speak more freely there.
00:03:40.000 They are non-sensorial, except with regard to matters for which there are already laws.
00:03:46.000 Hate 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.
00:04:10.000 Let'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.
00:04:23.000 All right 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.
00:04:49.000 Let'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
00:05:16.000 escalating tensions between the US and China over Taiwan is a front.
00:05:21.000 And I have the sense, amateur though I am, that this is a kind of pre-First World War period
00:05:28.000 where there are these peculiar axes and alliances, these resource-based interests,
00:05:35.000 these surging forces of dominion coalescing and organizing.
00:05:41.000 This time though the technology is not the advance of industry as it was in World War One 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.
00:06:02.000 But let's have a look first of all at this assassination in Tehran.
00:06:06.000 Breaking news here on CNN.
00:06:08.000 A major development in the Middle East.
00:06:10.000 Hamas says the political leader of the organization the U.S.
00:06:13.000 calls a terror group has been killed in Tehran.
00:06:17.000 So far, the Israeli military is only saying they do not respond to reports in the foreign media.
00:06:23.000 The White House says it is aware of the reports and is monitoring it.
00:06:26.000 A statement from the group said he was killed in an Israeli raid on a house in the Iranian capital, Tehran, that he was staying in.
00:06:33.000 Israel's military is not commenting.
00:06:36.000 It said the raid took place after he had attended the inauguration of the new Iranian president.
00:06:42.000 Ismail Hanir had been leading negotiations with Israel and his death is likely to affect any chances of progress.
00:06:47.000 A Hamas official described the assassination as a grave escalation that will not go unpunished.
00:06:53.000 So 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 conceptualize or deal with it.
00:07:19.000 Something 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 and ongoing set of deaths and tragedies such as any war would generate
00:07:42.000 and as is likely to continue for some time in the various fronts of what
00:07:47.000 increasingly looks like a like a world war and when you think about how much we've
00:07:53.000 been consumed by the emergence of Kamala Harris the extraordinary Gideon carousel
00:08:00.000 of American events
00:08:02.000 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.
00:08:13.000 Stay with us for that.
00:08:14.000 You get the sense that what we are experiencing now is a kind of apocalyptic End game.
00:08:26.000 And diplomacy, which is just three syllables for kindness, communication, love, and connection, has fallen by the wayside.
00:08:37.000 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.
00:08:51.000 Who doesn't even appear to understand the concept of diplomacy itself.
00:08:57.000 So while 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 think, bloody hell, these Middle Eastern wars are continuing.
00:09:12.000 The assassination of Ishmael Haniyeh is a reminder of that.
00:09:17.000 And also, of course, Ukraine-Russia is continuing.
00:09:20.000 You'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.
00:09:38.000 Have a listen to her talking about Vladimir Putin and like, you can't talk to Vladimir Putin, there's no point in it.
00:09:45.000 Like, but you do need to talk to people if you're trying to avert, avoid, curtail or limit War and death.
00:09:53.000 Have a look at this.
00:09:54.000 To me, it's the question, why talk to him?
00:09:56.000 I mean, why?
00:09:58.000 He's a war criminal.
00:09:59.000 I mean, I'm a lawyer by profession and I looked up the definition of war crimes and genocide for that matter.
00:10:07.000 And it is the willingness to get rid of, you know, part... Also look up the word diplomacy next time you got your dictionary open it's going to involve conversation with people that you don't currently agree but at some point just talking to people you agree with part of the nation or or a whole nation and
00:10:29.000 And he has expressed this will, his intention, he has done steps for this, and he's a war criminal.
00:10:37.000 And if you say that, you know, there is no outcome of talking to him, then why talk to him?
00:10:45.000 Because 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.
00:10:58.000 So if we want to get him the message through that actually you're isolated, don't call him.
00:11:04.000 No point.
00:11:05.000 Oh well, so these wars are likely to continue to get worse.
00:11:10.000 More and more people will die, more and more money will get spent.
00:11:13.000 The people that have been specifically employed, in the discipline of diplomacy, don't understand the
00:11:21.000 meaning of the word.
00:11:22.000 So it's nice to know that while these assassinations are taking place,
00:11:26.000 while these military exercises are taking place, while people are dying across the world,
00:11:31.000 no one is considering that the solution might involve talking to people with whom you have grievance and conflict.
00:11:38.000 We're going to leave YouTube now, so click the link in the description.
00:11:41.000 We're going to talk a little more about the Kamala Harris campaign.
00:11:43.000 We're going to talk about the complexity of Venezuela and the ongoing CIA involvement in that region.
00:11:49.000 And firstly, we're going to talk about my country, Southport, the murder of three children.
00:11:55.000 I 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?
00:12:02.000 But 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.
00:12:09.000 Click the link in the description, join us as we try to understand this extraordinary time.
00:12:14.000 So, if you're watching us in the UK, you'll be aware of this story already.
00:12:18.000 If 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.
00:12:36.000 This story has already caused a lot of controversy with many people saying that the identity of the murderer ought be made public.
00:12:44.000 And various conflicting claims made about the identity of the young man who's evidently a minor.
00:12:51.000 This country, like many countries, already is starting to feel like a tinderbox.
00:12:56.000 Feels like things could go off at any moment.
00:12:58.000 There's been rioting in Leeds, there's been rioting overnight in Southport, there's been rioting recently in Dublin.
00:13:06.000 Many of these riots Center around real or perceived grievances around the subject of migration which in itself however you carve it up is a consequence of globalism.
00:13:19.000 Let'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.
00:13:30.000 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.
00:13:40.000 Let's have a look now, firstly, at some of the riots that's been taking place.
00:13:45.000 The people have already, like, in their chat saying, you know, it's not a minor, evidence suggests the opposite.
00:13:50.000 People talking about numerous stabbings, and I guess when you look, do you know 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.
00:14:02.000 You know, like my view will be colored by the fact that I'm English, that I have daughters of the age of these girls.
00:14:08.000 All of that stuff will play into my perspective.
00:14:11.000 I 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.
00:14:31.000 It's an unusual and surprising story.
00:14:34.000 We'll be unpacking it in some detail over the next few minutes.
00:14:38.000 Violence has erupted as a community mourns the deaths of three young girls stabbed at a Taylor Swift dance class.
00:14:46.000 A riot breaking out in the English town where the attack unfolded.
00:14:49.000 A broken community comes together to mourn at a vigil before anger and division boils over.
00:15:00.000 Riot police called in to try and control crowds who gathered at a Southport mosque.
00:15:06.000 Officers pelted with bricks and bins.
00:15:08.000 Vehicles set on fire following the stabbing attacks that claimed three lives.
00:15:14.000 Hart Street and the wider Southport community are hurting.
00:15:18.000 Many locals telling me they feel helpless, struggling to come to terms with such an evil act.
00:15:26.000 A 17-year-old remains in custody.
00:15:28.000 False claims about his identity spreading online.
00:15:32.000 Police say he was born in Wales.
00:15:35.000 As some locals rage, the families of the girls mourn.
00:15:39.000 In Southport, England, Jessica Millward, 9News.
00:15:43.000 Let'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.
00:15:53.000 And 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.
00:16:13.000 Was that true?
00:16:14.000 We 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.
00:16:42.000 It's just an interesting sideline.
00:16:45.000 We'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.
00:17:02.000 This is Keir Starmer laying a reef at the scene.
00:17:05.000 Oh, do you have you guys got it on you?
00:17:09.000 Okay guys, I'm gonna then I'm gonna just look at this post so can you put my deck onto the other page?
00:17:14.000 Thank you.
00:17:15.000 Now there are sort of a series of reactions to the to the event and it's really curious because These are the kind of commentators that in my country Get significantly censored.
00:17:30.000 I'm going to start with this post from David Icke.
00:17:33.000 Now David Icke is, I mean, he's one of the most heavily censored individuals in the world.
00:17:38.000 Many of you will have heard his theories on interdimensional beings, reptilians, cults.
00:17:45.000 A lot of you know pretty esoteric stuff which I've spoken to with you know I 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 but when it comes to his reaction to this story have a look so Yeah, first of all he sort of outlines the idea that power benefits when ordinary people are in conflict.
00:18:12.000 He 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.
00:18:30.000 Let's have a look.
00:18:33.000 Falling for the plot, says Ike.
00:18:35.000 Scenes in Southport near a mosque in the wake of the child murders.
00:18:38.000 They are pawns in a game they don't understand and this is what they need to know.
00:18:41.000 I've been warning for so long that the plan was to allow unchecked numbers of people from other cultures and religions into the West, mostly adult young men.
00:18:51.000 And then instigate trigger events to create uncivil war between them and the indigenous culture.
00:18:57.000 Now, I know a lot of you will be sympathetic to that idea.
00:18:59.000 I've heard Alex Jones talk about ideas like that.
00:19:01.000 Tucker Carlson has been attacked, hasn't he, for talking about replacement theory.
00:19:05.000 Remember when he was in Australia and that journalist said, oh, the replacement of white individuals?
00:19:08.000 And Tucker said, no, no, it's not just white individuals.
00:19:11.000 It's blue collar or working class people.
00:19:14.000 Now, 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.
00:19:33.000 And 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.
00:19:44.000 Where 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.
00:19:51.000 And how Tony Blair, and everything that he represents for it, if there is a face...
00:19:57.000 If there is a face of globalism, it may yet be Tony Blair's face.
00:20:04.000 He 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.
00:20:16.000 You'll be fascinated to see that.
00:20:18.000 I'm just going to pull up that post again.
00:20:21.000 Thanks.
00:20:23.000 We 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.
00:20:33.000 One to justify fascist laws.
00:20:35.000 That's interesting.
00:20:36.000 Let's see where this goes.
00:20:37.000 Let's see if there are more conflagrations and more riots as grieved people try to grapple with pretty serious events.
00:20:47.000 Let's see if there's that kind of martial or prohibitive response.
00:20:53.000 Two, generate widespread fear and anger.
00:20:56.000 And 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.
00:21:02.000 Both sides are being played by a hidden hand via puppet governments with mass immigration that has transformed Western cities with the incoming cultures.
00:21:10.000 Now, certainly, now we're moving back in the territory that classic pundits of the right have been commenting on for a long while,
00:21:18.000 whether you're talking about PJW or Alex Jones or Tucker, whether you're talking about independent media
00:21:24.000 or even more contemporary media, or even now, if you're talking about
00:21:28.000 a purportedly center-left political leader, although that's sort of difficult to claim,
00:21:34.000 like Kirstahmer saying that migration is out of control.
00:21:38.000 So of course, a figure like Nigel Farage would say he's not gonna do anything about it.
00:21:41.000 Or when we saw Joe Biden, when he was still president, remember that, a million years ago,
00:21:45.000 emulating Trump's border policies.
00:21:49.000 Although, of course, what people on the right would say is, yeah, they're using that rhetoric,
00:21:52.000 but they'll never deploy that policy.
00:21:54.000 When it comes to rhetoric, at least, everyone acknowledges that migration is a problem, it seems.
00:22:00.000 That there is less inclination, isn't there?
00:22:04.000 Would you agree to sort of say, oh no, come on, we have to have open borders
00:22:07.000 and we have to protect one another?
00:22:09.000 Even though the values of compassion and kindness are hugely significant, defining even,
00:22:16.000 It's starting to seem like the problems that migration generates are very serious and have to be addressed.
00:22:23.000 We're starting to see some incredible consequences.
00:22:25.000 Not 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.
00:22:45.000 We'll work that out over the next few minutes as well as best we can.
00:22:49.000 This has been coldly calculated for decades, especially since the Blair era which set out to culturally change Britain in a way that was irreversible.
00:22:57.000 The 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.
00:23:05.000 Cultures from other lands need to respect the culture they enter and not, as some do, seek to usurp it and impose their own.
00:23:13.000 If you go on doing that, then uncivil war is inevitable.
00:23:16.000 Both sides have been put in this situation by a cult that hates them.
00:23:20.000 Whether white or brown, you're all just human trash to the cult.
00:23:24.000 We 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.
00:23:32.000 Both sides need to realize there is a common foe and find common cause in responding to that.
00:23:36.000 If we don't, we ain't seen nothing yet.
00:23:38.000 I 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.
00:23:56.000 It's difficult, isn't it, to go into that kind of territory when at the very core of this issue are three murdered children.
00:24:03.000 But 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.
00:24:15.000 What did last night achieve?
00:24:16.000 She's Leilani Dowding responding to the rioting.
00:24:20.000 He 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.
00:24:29.000 This is Tony Blair's wet dream.
00:24:31.000 Civil war, divide and conquer, digital ID and technocracy.
00:24:35.000 Is this where this is heading?
00:24:39.000 Now 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.
00:24:57.000 It's hard not to, isn't it?
00:24:58.000 It's hard to even go anywhere near the grief that the parents of those little girls might be feeling.
00:25:05.000 In fact, can you post in the chat the ex post that I did earlier, the Ram Dass post, because it's kind of Conciliatory, at least.
00:25:15.000 Thanks guys, I appreciate that.
00:25:17.000 Because 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.
00:25:31.000 Now, While 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.
00:25:48.000 Let's have a look at Tony Blair, who plainly is a good embodiment of that.
00:25:54.000 Digital ID for me is a very big part of the future, and let me explain why.
00:26:00.000 So, 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.
00:26:15.000 Well, 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.
00:26:27.000 Without a form of identity, it's very hard to tell who's got a right to be in a country, who's not.
00:26:32.000 So, inevitably, governments are going to move in this direction.
00:26:35.000 Absolutely inevitably.
00:26:37.000 So that's sort of how you could see globalists, if that's how you would describe Tony Blair, responding to this kind of unrest.
00:26:46.000 Whether it's COVID, commerce, or civil unrest, digital ID and civilian management is a good idea.
00:26:55.000 Here's Tony Blair on the subject of immigration.
00:26:57.000 There are genuine concerns about immigration.
00:27:00.000 Concerns about, particularly, frankly, and again you've got to be honest about this on the left, we want to deal with the problem.
00:27:05.000 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.
00:27:20.000 If you literally just Say, well, it's too difficult.
00:27:25.000 I don't want to have that conversation.
00:27:26.000 Fine, but then you're not having the conversation that your people are having.
00:27:30.000 How do you imagine these events afford opportunity to people whose focus is nation-first politics?
00:27:40.000 Let's have a look at Nigel Farage's response to this. You know, Nigel Farage and I spoke briefly
00:27:44.000 at the Republican National Congress and when it comes to the issue of mass, massive centralized
00:27:52.000 bureaucracies and mass migration, Nigel Farage is obviously a significant voice, whether you agree
00:27:58.000 with him or not. Let's have a look at Nigel Farage's response to this. Well it's pretty horrendous,
00:28:02.000 the third young girl has died as a result of the stabbings yesterday in Southport.
00:28:07.000 I obviously join everybody in my horror at what has happened.
00:28:12.000 The 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.
00:28:20.000 I have to say there are one or two questions.
00:28:23.000 Was this guy being monitored by the security services?
00:28:26.000 Some reports say he was.
00:28:28.000 Something's changed about the agenda of the establishment.
00:28:32.000 terror incident. Just as they said the stabbing of an army lieutenant colonel
00:28:37.000 in uniform on the streets of Kent the other day was a non-terror incident.
00:28:42.000 Something's changed about the agenda of the establishment.
00:28:45.000 When I was younger, 10, 20 years ago, there was always a appetite to frame violence
00:28:54.000 as terror.
00:28:55.000 It was, I suppose, I don't know what was ordered.
00:29:01.000 Like, this incident is likely related to terror, this migrant community are terrorists.
00:29:06.000 There was a real appetite in mainstream media to frame stories in that way.
00:29:11.000 It seems subsequent to the Iraq wars and perhaps the agenda having been met when it comes to excursions and incursions into the Middle East.
00:29:23.000 It seems to be the opposite way, an attempt to frame things as being discreet from terror or extremism.
00:29:32.000 It's interesting.
00:29:33.000 It's interesting.
00:29:34.000 Why would that have changed?
00:29:35.000 Another note, isn't it the kind of thread of were the security services monitoring this individual?
00:29:44.000 That's another thing that's emerged.
00:29:45.000 That's, you know, with your man who attempted to assassinate Trump the other day.
00:29:51.000 That's another kind of narrative that unfolds.
00:29:55.000 Were security services aware of this person?
00:29:57.000 I suppose it's an attempt to allocate culpability, isn't it? Like, what if they knew
00:30:03.000 they should have done something about it?
00:30:04.000 Isn't it? Is it our job? What do you think? Is it our job to continue to return to the extraordinary
00:30:11.000 grief of the people directly affected and consider what would likely mean events like this would take
00:30:21.000 place less frequently? I suppose that's what we're all doing in our own way, isn't it?
00:30:26.000 And trying to manage the sense that there are various political and cultural forces that want to exploit the event.
00:30:34.000 And those include mainstream and peripheral forces.
00:30:39.000 Here, for example, on button 35, is the leader of our country
00:30:46.000 in the accepted and ordinary fashion doing that.
00:30:49.000 (crowd chattering)
00:31:08.000 It's an interesting piece of pageantry, isn't it?
00:31:10.000 And it sort of shows you that there is a type of dreadful theater associated with these events
00:31:18.000 and what people will be thirsting is a response that somehow makes sense to an event
00:31:24.000 that probably can't ever make sense.
00:31:27.000 Just 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.
00:31:38.000 That's like being the Attorney General in the United States of America.
00:31:42.000 It's in charge of the prosecution side of the judiciary.
00:31:45.000 Now 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.
00:31:55.000 And 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.
00:32:07.000 You let me know what you think it all meant.
00:32:10.000 Here's just a sort of an update on what we were talking about earlier.
00:32:13.000 The 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.
00:32:23.000 I mention that only in the event that the murderer in this instance is a minor.
00:32:29.000 Long-standing advice, but suspects are Under the age of 18, should not be tried for minor offences, was suspended.
00:32:35.000 Okay, so they sort of relaxed that understanding even if it wasn't legislatively intransigent.
00:32:44.000 It sounds like there was a degree of flexibility because it says long-standing advice rather than laws or regulations.
00:32:49.000 Actions normally regarded as theft were treated as burglary so as to ensure maximum jail time.
00:32:55.000 Cases 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.
00:33:06.000 So I'm only raising that point because of of the anonymity currently afforded to the suspect innocent until proven guilty in this terrible, awful, this dreadful, heartbreaking case.
00:33:19.000 And just to sort of show you how even law, which we think of as being something permanent and transcendent, can be utilized.
00:33:27.000 I'm gonna have to explain that to you if you're American, 'cause you'll be familiar with the term lawfare
00:33:31.000 and how the law is frequently mobilized as a resource.
00:33:35.000 So while as a parent and as a human being, at the moment it's difficult to tackle or grapple
00:33:41.000 with the murder of three young girls and what the cultural implications of it
00:33:44.000 and what the unraveling and analysis of it might lead us to, what we can be alert to,
00:33:50.000 as well as I'm sure a roster of other issues, is the potential of the state and existing authority
00:33:57.000 to exploit this event eventually to legitimize further power and civilian control.
00:34:03.000 In 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.
00:34:12.000 People become more Malleable and willing to accept overt measures of control when they're frightened, divided or full of hate.
00:34:20.000 And 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 To a degree, stay connected to some kind of perspicacity and some kind of faith, even though at a time like this, it's obviously extremely difficult.
00:34:43.000 But that's just what I think.
00:34:44.000 Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.

00:36:06.000 Hey, are you an awakened wonder yet?
00:36:08.000 Have you seen when I do analysis of stand-up comedy?
00:36:10.000 We've done Richard Pryor, we've done Louis C.K., we've done Chappelle.
00:36:13.000 It's good stuff.
00:36:15.000 I wonder if these people in the chat are right.
00:36:17.000 I mean, you're talking about some crazy stuff in there about political updates.
00:36:21.000 I don't think you're right, Chris Pope.
00:36:22.000 I think you're a crazy baby in the rumble chat.
00:36:24.000 Hey there you awakened wonders.
00:36:26.000 Did you guys already see, is this camera on today?
00:36:30.000 Let me know if it's, did it survive the power cut?
00:36:32.000 Thanks guys.
00:36:35.000 You know what I liked in the conversation with Adam Carolla guys, is I like the bit where, dear Adam Carolla, what number's he on?
00:36:43.000 Adam Corolla Paramo?
00:36:45.000 36, thanks.
00:36:46.000 I like it when Adam Corolla talked about authoritarianism in coronavirus.
00:36:51.000 We'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.
00:37:00.000 Well, here's Adam Corolla talking about authoritarianism during COVID.
00:37:04.000 And is that what you believe?
00:37:06.000 That they find ways to justify authority?
00:37:10.000 I believe that COVID was a test to see who wanted authority the most.
00:37:17.000 And 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.
00:37:31.000 Like, that was their impulse.
00:37:34.000 And I think that would be my impulse, too.
00:37:36.000 On the other hand, many are attracted to it.
00:37:39.000 COVID to me was just a test to see who was most attracted to authority.
00:37:48.000 [Clip]
00:37:56.000 It's up now for you Awaken Wonders.
00:37:58.000 I'm going to go on his thing a little later.
00:38:01.000 Have a look at the social media chat in there, you guys.
00:38:04.000 Right, 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 Let'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.
00:38:43.000 They're speaking to Kamala Harris early days of the campaign out there.
00:38:48.000 I think in Atlanta Trying out some new accents.
00:38:53.000 And you all helped us win in 2020 and we're gonna do it again in 2024!
00:38:58.000 Yes we will.
00:39:02.000 Yes we will.
00:39:05.000 It was only really the four that was lent into.
00:39:09.000 The four a little bit.
00:39:11.000 I know myself that I bounce around my little class ladder depending on who I'm talking to.
00:39:17.000 You should see me in the back of a black cab.
00:39:19.000 I'm stopping all over the shop.
00:39:22.000 That's nothing compared to what dear Hillary Clinton, I mean this is from Hillary Clinton, it's hard to believe that this actually happened, but it's also, I like Hillary Clinton better like this, and feel like she should do this all the time.
00:39:36.000 I don't feel no ways tired.
00:39:42.000 And you all helped us win in 2020 and we're going to do it again in 2024.
00:40:00.000 Crazy days, crazy days, crazy accents, crazy times.
00:40:04.000 And indeed, I wonder what is the significance of this event.
00:40:09.000 I've not watched RuPaul's Drag Race before, but I understand it to be a popular show that has considerable influence.
00:40:15.000 Certainly, it appears to have caught Kamala Harris's attention.
00:40:20.000 Here she is appearing on it.
00:40:21.000 We are all in this together, and your vote is your power.
00:40:27.000 So please make sure your voice is heard this November and register to vote at vote.gov.
00:40:33.000 Can I get an amen?
00:40:35.000 Amen!
00:40:37.000 Now on with the show.
00:40:39.000 And remember, you better vote.
00:40:43.000 Why not?
00:40:44.000 Why not?
00:40:45.000 Okay, fair enough.
00:40:46.000 Hey, what about, um, because it's weird, isn't it?
00:40:48.000 Because 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.
00:41:00.000 It's customarily referred to as soft power, a good example being the cultural powers that emerge out of Japan.
00:41:05.000 It'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.
00:41:17.000 But soft power is always kind of daft.
00:41:20.000 When especially when you see it in militarily mighty nations like America, he is soft power at play.
00:41:26.000 When 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.
00:41:34.000 And I anticipated and indeed was rewarded for that anticipation because obviously the sort of legacy media, What?
00:41:41.000 Hulk Hogan?
00:41:42.000 This is ridiculous!
00:41:43.000 That guy's an idiot!
00:41:45.000 But is it any different than this as a cultural artifact, i.e.
00:41:50.000 the deployment of popular figures and cultural artifacts for support of a political figure?
00:41:55.000 Is it in itself ridiculous or is it only ridiculous sometimes?
00:41:59.000 Tell me in the chat.
00:42:00.000 Hey, hey, yeah.
00:42:06.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:42:17.000 Yeah.
00:42:21.000 Yeah.
00:42:25.000 Yeah.
00:42:30.000 Yeah.
00:42:33.000 This is just the rapper endorsing a presidential candidate.
00:42:36.000 Maybe I suppose in the like old days, maybe if it was, I don't know, if it was Abraham Lincoln
00:42:43.000 campaigning, there'd have been someone with a bugle. "Abraham Lincoln, he's got what it takes!"
00:42:49.000 Like even our propaganda in our country, just contemporaneously, UK endorsements and propaganda
00:42:56.000 always look less good, either than the sort of trashy gaudiness of a Hulk Hogan endorsement.
00:43:05.000 I love that guy!
00:43:07.000 Or the kind of rather more slick and urbane endorsement of Megan Thee Stallion there.
00:43:14.000 Like, when we're doing this, I'd like to strongly suggest you vote for Sir Keir Stormer.
00:43:21.000 He's a good egg.
00:43:22.000 Stormageddon, we're calling it.
00:43:24.000 Like, when you sit in our country, I don't know man, it don't look right.
00:43:26.000 We never did glamour so well as you lot.
00:43:29.000 Uh, okay, let's see what, um, oh, this is something that a lot of people are well into.
00:43:34.000 Uh, Dana, Dana, Dana White.
00:43:36.000 He, um, here's him talking about the attempts to mobilize the, uh, Kamala campaign on CNN.
00:43:46.000 Here he goes.
00:43:48.000 This campaign has already gotten pretty nasty.
00:43:51.000 I think people expected it to get nasty.
00:43:52.000 Now that there is a new head of that Democratic ticket, it's the vice president, Kamala Harris.
00:43:57.000 You know, you have joked before that politics is way nastier than sports or the UFC.
00:44:01.000 But what we're seeing—I mean, there's a labeling of the vice president as a DEI hire.
00:44:07.000 You yourself have prided yourself on giving both men and women opportunities at your organization.
00:44:12.000 What do you think of this message that attacks the race and gender of an opponent?
00:44:19.000 Yeah, I don't judge people by their politics and, you know, who they vote for or any of that stuff.
00:44:26.000 And listen, I don't know Kamala.
00:44:28.000 She seems like she's a nice person.
00:44:32.000 You know, I have nothing against her whatsoever, and like I said, I'm not political, but do I think that she is fit for the job?
00:44:40.000 I do not, personally.
00:44:41.000 Politics are the most disgusting, nasty, it's atrocious what is said.
00:44:49.000 And the things that are being said on one side are being said on the other side, too.
00:44:55.000 About Trump and about, you know, his choice for Vice President.
00:45:01.000 It goes both ways.
00:45:02.000 This isn't like, oh my God, look what's being said about Kamala.
00:45:05.000 It goes both ways.
00:45:07.000 They're both saying it.
00:45:08.000 And like you said, it's already heated up and gotten nasty.
00:45:11.000 And like you said earlier, it's only going to get nastier.
00:45:14.000 That's politics.
00:45:15.000 It is what it is.
00:45:17.000 And it definitely goes both ways.
00:45:20.000 I don't know that it's going both ways to have the childless Cat Lady comment or a D.E.I.
00:45:25.000 Who's calling J—you think that Vice President Kamala Harris is calling J.D.
00:45:25.000 hire.
00:45:29.000 Vance a D.E.I.
00:45:30.000 hire, Dana?
00:45:31.000 Come on.
00:45:33.000 But either way, she's going to say other nasty stuff about both of them.
00:45:38.000 It goes both ways.
00:45:40.000 And 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.
00:45:53.000 That is our job as voters.
00:45:56.000 All of this stuff is a bunch of nasty BS.
00:46:01.000 All of it.
00:46:02.000 Who's best fit to run the country?
00:46:04.000 You as a voter, that's what you need to decide.
00:46:07.000 Not, oh my God, he said this and oh my God, she said that.
00:46:11.000 There's going to be a lot of that over the next several months.
00:46:15.000 And especially the media.
00:46:17.000 Cut through all the BS that the media on both sides.
00:46:20.000 You guys, you guys are really bad.
00:46:23.000 Fox is bad.
00:46:24.000 Everybody's bad.
00:46:25.000 Cut through the BS and vote for who you think is the most fit to run the country.
00:46:29.000 That's our job as voters.
00:46:32.000 Oh, that actually was quite, it was a relief to hear that, wasn't it?
00:46:36.000 Because he was testifying when he said politics has gotten so dark on both sides, it's mudslinging and nastiness.
00:46:45.000 Since becoming Christian, I felt more and more, I want one out, man.
00:46:48.000 I want to transcend this space.
00:46:50.000 I don't even want to talk about this stuff.
00:46:51.000 It's so Awful and ugly.
00:46:54.000 The Olympics.
00:46:55.000 Children are being murdered.
00:46:57.000 There'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.
00:47:07.000 I mean, it's just absolutely exhausting.
00:47:10.000 And a Christian principle like...
00:47:12.000 You are all saved due to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and by the tribunal of our Lord.
00:47:19.000 You have all failed.
00:47:20.000 None of you are better than each other.
00:47:21.000 None of you are worse than each other.
00:47:23.000 Forget quarrelling about that or quibbling for status amidst one another.
00:47:27.000 And this, by the way, outside of Christianity, you could look at that materialistically, rationally and cosmologically and say in infinite space.
00:47:33.000 What the hell are we arguing about which particular molecule has the shiniest new shoes?
00:47:40.000 But 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, awaken!
00:47:49.000 Love is the fuel.
00:47:51.000 Love is what you need to connect to.
00:47:53.000 Love God with all your heart.
00:47:54.000 Love one another.
00:47:55.000 Get out of this mad tribal crap.
00:47:57.000 And stop setting up altars to false gods of ego or greed or sex, all sorts of things that I myself have worshipped at at various points.
00:48:05.000 You know, when you see even Dana White just going, oh, it's like he's exhausted.
00:48:09.000 And 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.
00:48:15.000 But it does seem more reasonable than the arena within which he's speaking.
00:48:22.000 Like, it's like the UFC is now Not violent.
00:48:28.000 It's not as violent as the media auditorium in which we're all conducting our discourse.
00:48:33.000 But, hey, that's just what I think.
00:48:35.000 Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
00:48:39.000 Now, it's time to address our old adversary, gravity.
00:48:43.000 Gravity, you're always bringing me down, dragging me down with a centrifugal force.
00:48:48.000 If only I had a pair of booties or shoes, of course, that could oppose that terrible thing.
00:48:54.000 That's gravity.
00:48:55.000 Have a look at this.
00:48:56.000 G Defy!

00:50:07.000 Hey, we're back, baby!
00:50:08.000 Oh, gravity, you're getting on my nerves, you filthy thing, you.
00:50:13.000 You filthy, dirty bastard, gravity.
00:50:15.000 Let me just have a look, see if there's anything else on there we should do, or should we do them all after the show?
00:50:20.000 Hey, you lot.
00:50:21.000 Gal, because Venezuela's a beast, I just wonder if we should prereq for Venezuela.
00:50:25.000 I mean, it's such a challenge.
00:50:27.000 Have you guys seen what's going on in Venezuela?
00:50:30.000 It's not easy.
00:50:31.000 It ain't easy, but I'm going to attempt it.
00:50:33.000 I'm going to attempt it.
00:50:35.000 Of journalistic integrity.
00:50:36.000 Right, listen you awakened wonders.
00:50:39.000 Venezuela.
00:50:40.000 Venezuela 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?
00:51:04.000 What's going on over there?
00:51:06.000 Why is it that people are doubting the outcome of their most recent election?
00:51:11.000 And what exactly is going on under the ground in Venezuela?
00:51:15.000 That means that the American state and establishment is interfering in their elections and potentially trying to install a government.
00:51:22.000 I'll give you one guess.
00:51:23.000 It's oil.
00:51:24.000 It's always oil.
00:51:24.000 Of course it's oil.
00:51:25.000 This time it's oil again.
00:51:26.000 Let's have a look though, first of all, at all of the various countries in the South, South American countries.
00:51:34.000 Yeah, oil pulling the string.
00:51:35.000 Let's have a look at the various Latin American, Central American countries that have had CIA
00:51:43.000 intervention and coups in the last, I don't know, 50, 60, maybe 80 years.
00:51:47.000 Check this out.
00:51:48.000 It's pretty funny.
00:51:49.000 Well, it's not funny.
00:51:50.000 It's true.
00:51:51.000 Here's every South American country which has had its government overthrown by the CIA
00:51:54.000 since 1947.
00:51:55.000 Costa Rica in 1948.
00:51:57.000 Guatemala in 1954.
00:51:59.000 El Salvador, 1979.
00:52:01.000 Nicaragua, 1981.
00:52:03.000 Panama, 1989.
00:52:05.000 Paraguay, 1954.
00:52:07.000 Brazil, 1964.
00:52:08.000 Peru, 1968.
00:52:10.000 Chile, 1973.
00:52:12.000 Uruguay, 1973.
00:52:14.000 Argentina, 1976.
00:52:16.000 And Venezuela in 2002.
00:52:19.000 Many of these were perceived as ideologically opposed to the United States, were leftist dictatorships, or were some combination of the two.
00:52:28.000 Okay, 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.
00:52:44.000 It'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.
00:52:58.000 Right, Taiwan, it's to do with them semiconductors, isn't it, and strategic proximity of China.
00:53:03.000 Ukraine, it's got a bunch of wheat in it, these biolabs, natural gas are required.
00:53:09.000 It's always some strategic thing that has to be sort of wallpapered over with.
00:53:13.000 The people of Ukraine need help.
00:53:16.000 The people of Taiwan need help.
00:53:19.000 People of Venezuela, these Poor bastards are being denied democracy.
00:53:23.000 We gotta deliver, we gotta ship democracy to them in little tin cans, if that's what it takes.
00:53:28.000 Here'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.
00:53:43.000 Breaking tonight, chaos in Caracas, Venezuela.
00:53:46.000 The political... Can you imagine that news anchor in sort of any other context?
00:53:50.000 Like, she's... I don't mean to be critical of her as a human being.
00:53:53.000 I can see she's married, she's got a husband, probably she's got a family and all those kind of things.
00:53:55.000 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.
00:54:03.000 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.
00:54:11.000 But of course they do.
00:54:12.000 And so does she.
00:54:13.000 Turmoil unleashed after Nicolas Maduro claimed victory in the South American country's presidential election.
00:54:20.000 There are widespread accusations of fraud with the U.S.
00:54:23.000 and other countries casting doubt on the results.
00:54:26.000 CBS's Lilia Luciano is the only U.S.
00:54:28.000 network correspondent inside Venezuela.
00:54:31.000 You're out.
00:54:34.000 Thousands of demonstrators are taking to the streets across Venezuela tonight to protest what they say is an attempt by Nicolás Maduro to steal the country's election.
00:54:43.000 Venezuela's strongman Nicolás Maduro has claimed victory for a third term, despite exit polls showing challenger Edmundo González ahead by more than 30 points.
00:54:53.000 The international community has joined those calls for transparency, as they did in Maduro's last disputed election win in 2018.
00:55:01.000 There's a really good video of him, though, sort of going, We can't trust America!
00:55:05.000 America assassinate their own presidents!
00:55:06.000 They killed JFK!
00:55:08.000 They tried to kill Donald Trump the other day!
00:55:10.000 You 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.
00:55:21.000 Now, Andy Blinken, he sort of told us He did sort of avail the diplomatic fret.
00:55:26.000 The 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.
00:55:33.000 I don't like thinking of it down there bubbling away.
00:55:36.000 Dirty, stinking, sweet stuff down there inaccessible to our interests and our elected global leaders and partners.
00:55:43.000 Let's jump now, in fact, To the text story on Asset 42.
00:55:48.000 Thanks, Gal.
00:55:50.000 You'll like this.
00:55:50.000 This is sort of a bit more of a breakdown of the event.
00:55:54.000 Okay, 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?
00:56:19.000 Would you care how people are running their lives in Senegal or Reykjavik as long as you're left alone?
00:56:23.000 I 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.
00:56:33.000 Like happened in Ukraine in 2014, I guess.
00:56:35.000 Washington 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.
00:56:45.000 All aimed at pressuring sections of the Venezuelan military and ruling circles to oust the United Socialist Party of Venezuela.
00:56:53.000 The key to understanding the political crisis in Venezuela, oh 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.
00:57:07.000 All 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!
00:57:19.000 The world's largest oil reserves.
00:57:22.000 Well, what a surprise it is to learn that that's happening.
00:57:27.000 The overall strategy of Washington was summed up in plain terms by Jeff Ramsey of the Atlantic Council.
00:57:32.000 Is that one of those names you're starting to recognise now?
00:57:34.000 The Atlantic Council?
00:57:35.000 One 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.
00:57:45.000 Like, many people will talk about Project 2025 and say, like, oh no, what are they going to try and do?
00:57:49.000 What kind of ethos are they going to try and instil in the event that there's a Republican government?
00:57:53.000 Well, groups like the Atlantic Council Business as usual, that's what they're always doing.
00:57:57.000 And 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.
00:58:10.000 So there it is, the Atlantic Council, a think tank with close ties to the US intelligence apparatus.
00:58:16.000 That's what that Atlantic Council is.
00:58:17.000 This isn't over, he wrote.
00:58:18.000 Maduro 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.
00:58:27.000 He's effectively inviting the biggest loyalty test he's faced in years.
00:58:30.000 I doubt Venezuelan elites are eager for six more years of repression, sanctions, and economic catastrophe.
00:58:35.000 I mean, it's not a good slogan, is it?
00:58:37.000 Repression, sanctions, economic catastrophe.
00:58:40.000 Well, I'm in!
00:58:41.000 The threat of international action beyond the sanctions, by the way, just check how many of the migrants coming across the border are from Venezuela.
00:58:49.000 I 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.
00:59:00.000 So 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.
00:59:18.000 You 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.
00:59:32.000 The 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.
00:59:43.000 For US NATO imperialism, Venezuela is already a key battlefield in its efforts to undermine, get ready for these names, Russia.
00:59:51.000 Yep, war with them.
00:59:52.000 China, going to have a war with them.
00:59:53.000 And Iran, war with them.
00:59:55.000 Coming soon to a cinema near you in the globalist, corporatist, cinematic universe with its A list of incredible Avengers.
01:00:06.000 Klaus Schwab, Antony Blinken introducing Kamala Harris as Storm.
01:00:12.000 All of whose governments maintain economic and political ties with Caracas.
01:00:17.000 So there you go.
01:00:18.000 That's what's happening in Venezuela.
01:00:21.000 in a way good that it's Latin America because I think we've all understood
01:00:24.000 from narratives that emerge out of the left that deep state or GERD regime
01:00:30.000 change is as common there as well. Oil. So it seems to me that war in Venezuela or
01:00:37.000 regime change in Venezuela or opportunities for economic exploitation
01:00:41.000 in Venezuela in some form or another will be happening over the next couple
01:00:46.000 of weeks but that's just what I think Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
01:00:50.000 And if you ain't had enough of this yet, we're going to stick around now with our awakened wonders like Negligent Banana or How I Love Ya to talk a little more about the news.
01:00:58.000 And on the show tomorrow, we got Neil Oliver.
01:01:03.000 I love Neil Oliver.
01:01:04.000 Do you love Neil Oliver?
01:01:05.000 We're talking about the sort of bewilderment And madness of our end times now.
01:01:12.000 The forever wars, the satanic ceremonies, the absolute insanity, the rise of nationalism as a response to globalism.
01:01:20.000 It's a brilliant conversation.
01:01:22.000 We'll be on at the usual time and you will love it.
01:01:25.000 Then we've got Adam Carolla coming on Friday.
01:01:27.000 We've got Brett Weinstein coming up soon.
01:01:29.000 I'm never confident I've said his name correct.
01:01:31.000 In fact, I'm never really confident I've said anyone's name correctly, it's just one of the things I have to live with.
01:01:37.000 Thanks so much for joining us today!
01:01:40.000 We will be streaming throughout the coming days, and I hope you will enjoy it, baby!
01:01:48.000 See you tomorrow, not for more of the same, but for more of the different.
