| So, I'm going to show you how to get to the top of the mountain. | |
| First, you need to go to the top of the mountain. | |
| Then, you need to go to the bottom of the mountain. | |
| Then, you need to go to the top of the mountain. | |
| Then, you need to go to the bottom of the mountain. | |
| you Hello there, you Awakening Wonders. | |
| You're watching Stay Free with Russell Brand. | |
| We are a little bit late because we have been swimming in a deluge of propaganda. | |
| Trump's trial awaits us. | |
| His speech from Mar-a-Lago has been delivered. | |
| We can now unpack the 34 charges and decide for ourselves whether they are misdemeanors or felonies and how they stand up against the great war crimes of recent history. | |
| We're going to be having a deep look at how the crimes of Trump stack up against the crimes of Biden, Obama, Bush and Clinton. | |
| And what laws we uphold. | |
| What are our true values? | |
| And, in a sense, how this spellbinding, hypnotic show is distracting us from deep, deep truths. | |
| We've got a fantastic guest coming up. | |
| We've got Adam Andrzejewski. | |
| What's amazing about this guy is he spends all his time bothering people that have access to, I would say, files of incredible corruption. | |
| Let's have a look at Donald Trump ignoring the mainstream media's pleas for a quote and then look at a virtual child getting an exclusive. | |
| Have a look. | |
| President Trump, will you come speak to us? | |
| President Trump? | |
| Trump then walking out of court without a word. | |
| How did you plead, President Trump? | |
| How did you plead? | |
| There you go, the mainstream media unable to get Donald Trump's attention. | |
| You'll have noticed that every single detail is being amplified and magnified, essentially because there's very little to look at in reality. | |
| But now, we live in a world where at Jar Sosa 25 is able to extract an exclusive on the street. | |
| Check this out. | |
| Donald Trump, tell them you innocent, bro. | |
| You innocent. | |
| I remember that, bro. | |
| Amazing! | |
| It's a persecution, not a prosecution. | |
| In a way, I think you can see right there, Gareth, not in microcosm, but in that opposition, the problem that we have now. | |
| The mainstream media once had sole access to information. | |
| Now we all have access to information as well as the ability to communicate it. | |
| So what the mainstream media now requires is either authority and legitimacy, which it can no longer make claim to because of the way that it is funded, because of its biases. | |
| So now what it needs is to be able to delegitimize the opposition. | |
| The fact is, is that a kid on the street has extracted more information from Donald Trump than MSNBC, than CNN. | |
| And so, in a way, the theatre and the performance of media has become more valid than its actual access to facts. | |
| Yeah I think one of the things that the mainstream media were really excited about with this case was that obviously cameras weren't allowed inside the courtroom and so one of the comments I think Robert Sherman who's coming up later was really excited and a piece that we were looking out of his yesterday where he was saying you know it's like the old days it's because people can't use social media inside the courtroom they're going to have to come straight out and report to the mainstream media so this was a chance for the mainstream media to It's extraordinary really. | |
| I guess that's what we're living in. | |
| this case. They tried and failed with Trump and a kid on the street using | |
| social media has got more access. It's amazing. It's extraordinary really. I | |
| guess that's what we're living in. Centralised authority is being | |
| continually challenged. They have the opportunity to revise their models and | |
| accept more democracy, accept more decentralisation, accept that there are | |
| different ways of reporting, different ways of seeing reality, or double down on | |
| authoritarianism by condemning and smearing peripheral figures, whether they | |
| are in media or in politics. | |
| Their legitimacy is, I think, being not only eroded, but almost completely vanquished. | |
| When you see them Criticizing and condemning Russia for the arrest using the espionage act of that Wall Street Journal journalist while Assange remains in prison in Belmarsh. | |
| You recognize that the hypocrisy is so pronounced that there's barely anything that you can trust them on. | |
| They must know that putting Trump in this position gives him the opportunity to do stuff like this. | |
| I think about this often. | |
| If you are one of the virulently anti-Trump folk that really are passionate about your hatred of Trump, that see him as the epitome of the problem, I wonder how you feel when you watch him at Mar-a-Lago And he is able to say there was the first impeachment hoax, there was the hunt a Biden laptop thing, there was the attempt to ally me with Russian disinformation. | |
| I wonder how they process that. | |
| I wonder how they are able to say no Biden is significantly different in these these ways. | |
| I don't know how you can legitimize your condemnation anymore other than in the sort of Vulgarity of Trump say, because I'm talking about how they condemn and criticize him. | |
| Interesting what you're saying about the Hunter Biden, because obviously that was broken on. | |
| Twitter wasn't it and then repressed on Twitter and it's interesting at the moment with all the mainstream reaction to Trump and of course we saw Matt Taibbi recently in Congress and this issue of kind of mainstream versus social media or independent journalism is really playing out with this and you really see in the Trump case the way in which the mainstream media focus on such minutiae like whether or not Donald Trump stares in a certain direction or you know Moves from left to right. | |
| And yet at the same time, there's the kind of vilification of independent journalists like Matt Taibbi. | |
| And you really feel that that's where truth is coming from now. | |
| Independent journalism, even through like social media. | |
| And we're seeing it play out in front of us, the ridiculousness of the mainstream and its focus on the minutia. | |
| You're right, like they sort of, they question the credibility of a journalist like Matt Taibbi. | |
| But then, as you say, on the mainstream media, they try to sort of suck Yeah. | |
| analysis out of the angle of Donald Trump's head in a courtroom. | |
| Oh, he's walking this way. | |
| He's definitely angry. | |
| All they have now is speculation undergirded by lower third graphics. | |
| That's what they can offer now. | |
| But just endless pontification. | |
| Here's Trump in the sacred Mar-a-Lago. | |
| He's Camelot. | |
| One of the things I enjoy most is the way Trump's over first in Mar-a-Lago is if it's like a new | |
| Jerusalem. | |
| They even came here to Mar-a-Lago. | |
| That means sea to lake. | |
| In case you didn't know. | |
| Does it mean sea to lake? Yes, it does. | |
| I can confirm now that that's what it actually means. | |
| Let's have a look at a series of clips from Trump's rebuttal and address from the sacred Mar-a-Lago. | |
| Let's have a look. | |
| The only crime that I have committed is to fearlessly defend our nation from those who seek to | |
| destroy it. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | |
| They attacked me with an onslaught of fraudulent investigations. | |
| Russia, Russia, Russia. | |
| Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine. | |
| Impeachment hoax number one. | |
| Impeachment hoax number two. | |
| The illegal and unconstitutional raid on Mar-a-Lago, right here. | |
| That's like one of his main points, is that it's an unconstitutional raid on Mar-a-Lago. | |
| Yeah, leave Mar-a-Lago alone. | |
| Don't drag Mar-a-Lago into this. | |
| Have we come so low that we've... We've not suffered enough. | |
| For God's sake, what are we, dogs? | |
| We're animals, for God's sake. | |
| Please, once we start invading Mar-a-Lago... What have we got left? | |
| Who are the criminals now? | |
| Because what is Mar-a-Lago? | |
| I don't actually know. | |
| I can't, like, when you see it from above, is it a golf course? | |
| Is it, like, a hotel? | |
| I still don't fully... All I know is I want to go Mar-a-Lago. | |
| Yeah, I bet it's fully booked. | |
| The amount of press it's getting these days. | |
| Gosh, if you struggled to get a single dwelling, you'd have to sleep in a janitor's cupboard, in a closet. | |
| And this is a bit where he talks again. | |
| Again, if you don't like Trump, and I know loads of you absolutely adore him, but if you don't, I wonder how you deal with the Hunter Biden laptop thing. | |
| I wonder how you deal with the Steele dossier stuff, like the Clinton administration spent, or the Clinton campaign, excuse me, spent money on. | |
| And where we go later, when we're going to analyse this with a little more depth in a minute, we start talking about how successive American presidents in any properly judicious government would be facing trial for war crimes. | |
| Even if you feel like this is a super serious thing and that Donald Trump should be like, you know, banged up for misappropriation of campaign funds or double entry bookkeeping or hush money to Stormzy Daniels, how do you compare that with war crimes? | |
| We're going to look at that in some depth in a moment. | |
| Let's have a look at a bit more Mar-a-Lago stuff. | |
| Just recently the FBI and DOJ in collusion with Twitter and Facebook In order not to say anything bad about the Hunter Biden laptop from hell, which exposes the Biden family as criminals and which, according to the pollsters, would have made a 17 point difference in the election result. | |
| And we needed a lot less than that, like about 16.9. | |
| It would have been in our favor, not my favor, our favor, because our country is going to hell. | |
| He's able to bring up significant points that seem more important than the amplification of a misdemeanor to a felony. | |
| When he talks, too, about bringing the world to the brink of Armageddon, you feel like, what are our priorities here? | |
| Should we have a look at some of the charges in a little more DL. | |
| So we can try and get a handle on this thing. | |
| So the 34 charges hinge on hush money payments the former president allegedly made to porn actress Stormy Daniels. | |
| Yet paying hush money to prevent publication of an adulterous sexual encounter is not a crime. | |
| Alexander Hamilton did it. | |
| Wow. | |
| He's got a whole musical about him. | |
| Yep. | |
| So did thousands of other high-profile Americans. | |
| None of them ever disclosed such payments on public corporate records. | |
| Okay, so that in itself is not distinct. | |
| In order to turn a questionable misdemeanor into an even more questionable felony, Bragg has had to allege that the reason Trump made false entries was to cover up other crimes. | |
| Here is where the indictment is at its weakest. | |
| Although the indictment itself does not specify which crimes were allegedly in Trump's mind, the statement of facts indicates that they generally related to election issues. | |
| But if it's that, then the Steele dossier, the Russiagate stuff, the Hunter Biden laptop, they all feel like they exist in the general environment. | |
| They're kind of comparable Uh, cases of, like, the use of funds or trying to manage the outcome of an election. | |
| It's not distinct or discreet enough. | |
| The theory is that Trump hid the real reason for the hush money payments for the purpose of helping his campaign rather than to hide the adulterous affair from his wife, children and business associates. | |
| It's weak at best and nearly impossible to prove at worst. | |
| Okay, sort of not really enough distinction, but have a deeper look at this. | |
| If you're watching this on YouTube now, click over onto watching us on Rumble, because we're going to look at this in a little more detail, comparing it not just to sort of other potentially frivolous or necessarily amplified misdemeanors, but to the most incendiary charge that could ever be levelled at a global leader, war criminality. | |
| Certainly a charge that's being levelled at Vladimir Putin, But is it a charge that could be levelled at recent US Commander-in-Chiefs? | |
| Here's the news. | |
| No, here's the FN News. | |
| News, have a look at this. | |
| The historic unprecedented charges against Trump have landed. | |
| Do they justify the media frenzy and is what Trump has done any worse than other former presidents of the United States? | |
| It isn't. | |
| Before we get into my perspectives, let's see how the mainstream media are telling you this story. | |
| Tonight, Donald Trump, the first president in American history to become a criminal defendant. | |
| All day, New York City on high alert. | |
| It's weird when they say high alert, it's just people with their hands in their pockets, people just standing around. | |
| This hyperbole is what much of the case is about. | |
| I've often thought that with the British monarchy, the crowns, the paraphernalia, is to distract you from the fact that these are just some people, actually. | |
| They're just people. | |
| When you look at it cosmically, from outer space, the Queen, God rest her soul, How much of the amplification, hysteria, magnification of this case is actually serving entrenched systemic power? | |
| Is what Trump's done that bad when compared to what other presidents have done? | |
| We're talking on the scale of war criminality. | |
| So again, just for you lot, some of you really love Donald Trump and I'm okay with that. | |
| Some of you really hate Donald Trump and I'm okay with that. | |
| What I'm interested in is systems. | |
| What I'm really interested in is change. | |
| Real change being delivered to all of us. | |
| A genuine conversation and the opportunity for people who hate Trump and love Trump to come together and recognise our systems are not working. | |
| Our media is lying to us. | |
| Trials like this are being used as mass distractions. | |
| Huge amounts of money are being conveyed to the military-industrial complex. | |
| Finland's joining NATO. | |
| Julian Assange is still in prison. | |
| And we're talking about misdemeanors being amplified into felonies. | |
| You have to learn to put aside your personal feelings. | |
| You have to look at systemic corruption. | |
| Police lining the streets around Trump Tower as Trump raised his fist, giving a wave as he stepped into a car. | |
| Like they're actually having to talk about the nature of it. | |
| He waved his fist, giving a wave. | |
| Then I think it was this finger, the index, that went down next, and then the dirty finger, then the wedding finger, then this little pig he stayed at home though. | |
| As his motorcade made its way downtown, sources tell ABC News that apart from his secret service detail, the former president rode alone. | |
| No lawyers, no family, no advisors with him. | |
| He's alone. | |
| He's ruined everything. | |
| So this is sort of anti-Trump, isn't it? | |
| Because if this was a pro-Trump channel... | |
| Donald Trump needed nobody. | |
| He used only his own breath and farts to pump himself full of courtroom power for the arraignment, a word you now know about and care about. | |
| So the inflections, even around the minor details, inform us what the media outlet wants us to believe. | |
| The very fact that there's this much hysteria shows you something significant is happening. | |
| Even though it's ultimately ephemeral amplification that we're dealing with, there is something underneath it. | |
| And what I believe that is, and what Trump's success has always been based on, is all of us know the system is broken and it doesn't work. | |
| All of us can see that Biden was elected on a set of pledges and promises that he hasn't delivered on. | |
| I know loads of you that are political experts will go, well, hang on a minute, he did that big farmer thing. | |
| Yeah, that's not really made a difference. | |
| It's only a few products. | |
| It's not going to affect their profits. | |
| Oh, didn't he release everyone with cannabis? | |
| That's not made any difference. | |
| There was no one in federal prison for cannabis. | |
| All of the administration, all of the legislation, it gives the impression of change without affecting elite What I believe Trump is, was, perhaps will forever remain, is a kind of organic wrecking ball and rhetorical genius. | |
| My personal belief is that Donald Trump is not able to change the systems of corruption whether he wanted to or not. | |
| I also believe that these charges are ultimately a way of removing him from the presidential candidacy, I believe that's true, but the main thing, the potent energy that has to be addressed is people are sort of shuddering, shaking, vibrating with rage against this corruption and centralised power, whether it's media, political or financial, is trying to repress it and locate it all in the figure of Trump and these charges, which I know some of you think are serious and a lot of you think are ridiculous. | |
| Approaching criminal court in lower Manhattan, Trump posting on social media, seems so surreal. | |
| Wow, they are going to arrest me. | |
| That's a weird diary. | |
| This is part of Trump's success. | |
| Like, because he is like... That's the sort of stuff all of us read on WhatsApp messages to one another. | |
| Can't believe it. | |
| Can't believe I'm actually going to jail now. | |
| Gonna get the old fist ready for the fist pump. | |
| What he does brilliantly is he accesses us at the point of the personal. | |
| I believe that's where he has managed to harness all of this energy. | |
| If you are a pro-Trump person, then you can ask yourself what he did in office that was better than any of his predecessors, and I know perhaps you'll point to Record around not starting any new wars, for example. | |
| But what I will say is try to focus on systemic corruption rather than the individuals. | |
| That's what I'm trying to do, because I find this exciting as well, because it's a circus, because I've been grown on it. | |
| I've been schooled in these images. | |
| I watched the OJ trial. | |
| I saw the assassination of JFK. | |
| I understand the semiotics of shooting a motorcade from the sky. | |
| I know that is evocative and powerful, but really try to think about it for a moment. | |
| We're on There are limited resources. | |
| There are systems of power that seem unimpeachable through democratic process. | |
| What are we going to do? | |
| Outside court, small groups of supporters and opponents. | |
| Police keeping the peace as the former president arrived. | |
| It's weird because seeing that I love Trump, I believe Stormy Daniels, | |
| is being reduced to a kind of a binary sport. | |
| It's not that. | |
| And even if it is that, let's say it is that in fact, that shows you that that's not going to create solutions. | |
| That's just more fanfare, more hyperbole, more hysteria. | |
| What we have to focus on is what's happening down here. | |
| What's happening politically? | |
| How are these parties funded? | |
| How is democracy functioning? | |
| And while we settle for reform on one hand, like minor reforms, oh we got this healthcare thing through, or things are gonna get slightly better over here, powerful institutions and powerful interests are carrying on unimpeded. | |
| I mean that literally. | |
| Right now. | |
| Your homes are being taken over by Blackstone. | |
| Assange remains in prison. | |
| Finland join NATO. | |
| Huge amounts of money funneling to an unwinnable war. | |
| Let's face it, Russia versus America, no one wins. | |
| Inside, Trump surrendered. | |
| He was arrested, booked, and processed like a common criminal. | |
| Like a common criminal, which we on this channel believe him to be. | |
| Let's look over now at Fox. | |
| A martyr like Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, or even, actually, yes, I'm gonna say this, Jesus! | |
| Jesus. | |
| Jesus was arrested and murdered. | |
| What's amazing about that is that the reporter just goes... instead of... | |
| Jesus! | |
| Trump was taken upstairs in an elevator usually reserved for judges. | |
| Stone-faced officers Stone-faced officers. | |
| That's telling you nothing is happening, because every minor detail is being amplified. | |
| Imagine if they reported on Julian Assange like this. | |
| Julian Assange, still in prison, didn't do anything wrong. | |
| Snowden, still exiled in Russia, just was basically a hero. | |
| So, again, don't get caught up in whether you like or hate Trump. | |
| I'm sorry to tell you, that's actually irrelevant. | |
| Whether you loathe Trump or love Trump, you are doing what the system wants you to do, because you're caught up in the cyclone of this. | |
| Instead of thinking, Wait! | |
| How do we change it? | |
| Will you come speak to us, President Trump? | |
| Yeah, he's just going to break off from that and have a casual chat. | |
| President Trump, what's going on? | |
| Who are you? | |
| Where are you going? | |
| Oh, do your research, shut up. | |
| Then that first picture, Trump at the defendant's table. | |
| That first picture, that first tender kiss, your first lover, the virginity of the pictures finally taken. | |
| Ridiculous. | |
| It's amplifying everything into significance. | |
| When that takes place, you better be sure that something else is happening. | |
| I don't mean in a conservative ...spiritorial way. | |
| I don't believe that there's any card race going, let's use this Trump trial and underneath it will slip through all this legislation. | |
| I'm just meaning the whole spectacle itself. | |
| While our eyes are here, it's business as usual. | |
| You better believe billions are moving around. | |
| You better believe that the truly powerful are doing their thing right now. | |
| Whether you believe he's a martyr or the worst person ever to have lived, I believe when it comes to the truly powerful, you don't know their names. | |
| His shoulders slumped, hands in his lap, flanked by his lawyers. | |
| Shoulders slumped, hands in his lap, heart broken inside, a silent tear, a look into the middle distance, a broken man. | |
| Trump sat boldly with an erection firing little seeds of justice out of the tip of his purple dick because that's red and blue combined because he's the messiah of a bipartisan new dawn. | |
| It's beginning. | |
| Pleading not guilty to those 34 felony charges that he repeatedly and fraudulently falsified New York business records to conceal criminal conduct that hid damaging information from the voting public during the 2016 presidential election. | |
| I mean even when you just read that, that does sound like concealed damaging information, bit Hunter Biden laptop, used funds, bit steals dossier. | |
| Now I know if you're a super pro-democrat person then you're going No! | |
| It's different! | |
| It has to be different than that! | |
| It has to be different! | |
| But it's not different enough, is it? | |
| That's our whole argument. | |
| It's not different enough. | |
| If you want to stop the rise of someone like Trump, if that's your deal, you have to offer something meaningfully different. | |
| We are going to change America. | |
| We are going to change these systems. | |
| We are going to help you live a meaningful life. | |
| We are going to help you awaken to who you truly are. | |
| And how are we going to do that? | |
| We're going to stop our relationship with the powerful dominant interests that currently control the trajectory and agenda of power. | |
| That can only mean this. | |
| Get money out of politics. | |
| Create more decentralised democracy. | |
| No one's talking about that because on the significant issues, they all agree. | |
| Trump orchestrated a criminal scheme with his former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen and his friend, former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker, to pay hush money to at least three people, including porn actress Stormy Daniels. | |
| Hush money? | |
| Pecker? | |
| Porn actress? | |
| I mean, what's going on? | |
| Incredible soap opera. | |
| Try to access for a moment the great depths within your own consciousness. | |
| Try to experience experience that you're in a universe right now that at the | |
| submolecular level miracles are occurring even as we speak that we can create | |
| new realities do not remain in this dominion of idiocy. An effort allegedly to | |
| prevent damaging stories from tipping the balance. They can't say all of | |
| this and not talk about the Steele dossier. As you know I am NOT pro-Trump I am pro-change | |
| I am pro democracy I am pro you. These are felony crimes in New York | |
| State no matter who you are. | |
| Yeah, that's right. | |
| We live in a real fair system. | |
| And that's why there's not a long history of former American presidents killing kids around the world and never facing any consequences. | |
| And you already know that. | |
| And you sort of have been trained not to care about that. | |
| And that tells you something very, very significant indeed. | |
| We just accept that when you're in that position, you do things that are unimaginable, that by any sensible metric would be illegal. | |
| So if we're going to talk about the illegality of these 34 misdemeanors and amplifying them into felonies because they could have led to other crimes and they could be about concealing information in order to XYZ, forget that it sounds pretty similar to some stuff that the Democrats have done. | |
| Why are we talking about that when what we could be talking about is building a better world where it's not business as usual for American presidents to bomb and kill children and then be rehabilitated as cozy uncles? | |
| Trump may be the first former president to face criminal prosecution, but that fact in and of itself is a damning condemnation of the US system of impunity that has long permeated our system of American exceptionalism. | |
| So the very notion that underwrites this from a liberal, neoliberal perspective is Trump may think he's above the law, but oh no he's not. | |
| Whoever you are, don't matter if your name's Trump or Joe Blow, you're gonna face justice. | |
| Let's see if that holds up. | |
| The case against Trump would be a mere footnote of history, albeit a wild one, if the US actually believed in holding presidents and other top officials accountable for their crimes, including those committed in office. | |
| George W. Bush continues to enjoy his rebranded life as the nice painter man who can joke around with Ellen DeGeneres. | |
| In fact, most people probably think Ellen DeGeneres is worse than George W. Bush now because she's rude to the staff. | |
| What she didn't do, Backstage at the Ellen Show is bomb children and sheer hugs with the Obamas. | |
| Dick Cheney is somehow still alive and popping his head out to remind us that his dark soul is still lurking. | |
| The truth is that all of them should be serving substantial prison sentences for directing and orchestrating the gravest of criminal activity, war crimes. | |
| And what that tells you is when corruption is that extreme, it is systemic. | |
| If a system can accommodate illegal wars and war criminality, it is the system itself that needs to be held accountable. | |
| If Cheney, Bush, Obama, Clinton, both of them, are all war criminals, then that tells you, uh-oh, we're going to have to redress the system. | |
| If you address and change the system, you start to impact the truly powerful organizations and institutions that control it. | |
| So Trump For all of his amazing rhetoric, or, you know, depending on your view, his heinous crimes, is a sideshow that stops you addressing the system itself is corrupt and needs to be changed. | |
| And as long as you're caught up in this from either perspective, you're not going to hold these people and this system accountable. | |
| Trump's prosecution is not evidence that our much vaunted justice system can actually be applied fairly and evenly to all, even a former president. | |
| What it really shows is that it's possible to prosecute a cartoonish villain, even one who served as president, who happens to be widely despised by the so-called adults in the room. | |
| When Barack Obama first took office, he assured the CIA that no one would be prosecuted for running a secret global kidnap and torture regime under Bush and Cheney. | |
| We need to look forward as opposed to looking backwards, Obama famously said later. | |
| So Obama, remember all that excitement. | |
| I do. | |
| I remember when Obama stood on that stage with his family and Oprah Winfrey, I was thinking, oh my God, this is historic. | |
| This is gonna mean change. | |
| But secretly, while all the fanfare was happening, Obama had assured Cheney, Bush, and the powers behind them, nothing's gonna change, they don't need to worry about those war crimes. | |
| What that tells you is it's a continuum, a continual line. | |
| Later he referred to the heinous program as, we tortured some folks. | |
| We tortured some folks. | |
| Imagine for a moment that people that are being tortured don't exist beyond some wall in your imagination. | |
| Imagine that there's someone that you love was tortured as a result of that regime and that Barack Obama would just seamlessly take the baton from Bush, Seamlessly pass it to Trump. | |
| That there's a baton that passes through. | |
| I know those of you that love Trump believe that what he is is an anti-establishment radical. | |
| Fine, if you believe that. | |
| Have a look at his time in office and we can continue that conversation. | |
| What I am contesting is the system is so robust that it can accommodate the fluctuations between the Democrat and Republican Party because it owns both of them. | |
| You know that by now, right? | |
| Obama would go on to approve more drone strikes in his first year in office than President Bush carried out in his entire administration. | |
| The alleged peacemaker, very much like his predecessor, didn't he win a Nobel Peace Prize? | |
| I think he did! | |
| I think, like, while bombing children, you win a Nobel Peace Prize. | |
| That's not a good system! | |
| A system that goes, oh, but it's more complicated than that. | |
| No, it isn't! | |
| The alleged peacemaker, very much like his predecessor, should be considered for the label of international war criminal. | |
| Let's move on to present day and President Joe Biden. | |
| Now forget the incompetence, forget the lying, forget the ineptitude, the ridiculousness, the senility. | |
| Let's focus on war criminality. | |
| Joe Biden's first strike and his expansion of the US drone war occurred just weeks into his presidency when at least four members of the Popular Mobilization Forces were killed in strikes in Syria and Iraq. | |
| Previously, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi steadfastly refused to even consider impeachment proceedings against Bush. | |
| The system depends on such bipartisan impunity. | |
| Bipartisan impunity. | |
| That means that they are safely contained in a continuum. | |
| That means that Trump's trial and Trump's charges are a distraction. | |
| And if you want to fetishise this and say, no, it's important that the law is upheld, Well, what law do you think is more important? | |
| These laws or those? | |
| And, you know, perhaps say both. | |
| Well, let's do both then. | |
| Because, no, I don't see this shit on the news. | |
| Why is this shit not on the news? | |
| Because if you put this on the news, you'd have to make meaningful change. | |
| You'd have to make meaningful change. | |
| No prosecutor is reviewing Trump's rollback of US limitations on killing civilians abroad, and there will be no indictment for the women and children killed under his watch. | |
| So there were some, according to this. | |
| If he goes down legally, it would be for his tawdry or white-collar style infractions, but not for any war crimes he committed as president. | |
| This we do not do. | |
| In fact, the US government threatens to use force against any international body that even thinks of doing so. | |
| History has proven a knack for timing, and around the same moment Trump was learning of his impending criminal charges, Russian President Vladimir Putin was hit with a war crimes indictment by the International Criminal Court or ICC. | |
| Putin's invasion of Ukraine has created an interesting predicament for the US Empire on these matters. | |
| President Joe Biden said last year that Putin is a war criminal and has suggested he should stand trial for the Ukraine war. | |
| He should be prosecuted as a war criminal, right? | |
| Because of the crimes. | |
| Not because his name or what he looks like or whether he poos himself or whether he's shaking in a bunker. | |
| Because of the crimes, right? | |
| But Biden's administration has slow-walked cooperating with the ICC. | |
| In fact, the Pentagon has blocked such cooperation for fear that prosecuting Putin would set a precedent that other nations could readily cite to demand equal application of the law to US officials and personnel. | |
| So there you are. | |
| All the while that the Biden administration is saying that Putin is uniquely a tyrant and a war criminal, Secretly, they're like, we better not prosecute this because we're war criminals, because the system is corrupt, because the type of change that's required will never be discussed by us. | |
| So whether it's Putin is a baddie, or Trump is a baddie, or Clinton is great, all of that rhetoric is fine because it's inconsequential. | |
| When it becomes consequential, like, yeah, let's stick Putin before a court. | |
| Guess who else is going to court? | |
| Biden! | |
| Obama! | |
| Bush! | |
| No way. | |
| No change. | |
| Not for you. | |
| Not ever. | |
| Enjoy your TV show, kids. | |
| Enjoy your TV show while the system is doing just fine. | |
| Since the end of World War II, the US government has waged a judicial proxy war over its vanquished enemies and less powerful nations under the banner of international justice. | |
| The Nuremberg Principles, which governed the trials of Nazi and Imperial Japanese war criminals, represented a powerful framework for holding even the most senior officials accountable for war crimes. | |
| But there was a crucial caveat built into the system. | |
| These principles were designed never to be applied to the US and its allies. | |
| Since 2002, the US, by its own law, will never subject its personnel or those of its allies to the ICC, and reserves the right to conduct a military operation inside the Netherlands, where the court is based, to liberate its own accused war criminals. | |
| My God, if it ever happens, they're sending in the Navy SEALs. | |
| But they would never, you know, use that to blow up a pipeline. | |
| That must have been Russia blowing up their own pipeline as a sort of prank on Russia. | |
| For more than two decades, the U.S. | |
| position on international prosecutions has been to oppose a permanent international court that would have jurisdiction equally over all war criminals, regardless of their nationality or position of power. | |
| That would be fair. | |
| That would be justice, rather than a television show, which we all enjoy, but let's remember it's a television show. | |
| Instead, it's encouraged ad hoc tribunals set up to prosecute war criminals from places like the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda and other African nations. | |
| And remember what did Trump say? | |
| Bullshit countries. | |
| You can't say bullshit countries! | |
| Let's set up some bullshit trials in bullshit countries so that we don't ever have to face the consequences of our war crimes. | |
| And also, Donald Trump, he said bullshit countries. | |
| All we did was meant bullshit countries. | |
| We didn't say it, though. | |
| The whole purpose of this from the U.S. | |
| perspective is to ensure that these laws will never be applied to Americans or their friends. | |
| And now that stance is revealing its moral bankruptcy in the face of Putin's crimes in Ukraine. | |
| All of this has made a farce of the notion of international law. | |
| It's a farce. | |
| The prosecution of Trump should thus serve as a reminder that the US does not actually believe in holding its most powerful citizens accountable for even the most serious of acts. | |
| And that position has real consequences, including in how it can be weaponized by criminals like Putin. | |
| So there you are! | |
| There is something called justice. | |
| There is something called law. | |
| There is something called systemic corruption. | |
| None of that is on trial today. | |
| You might believe that Trump's crimes are being amplified in order to generate a political trial. | |
| Of course you're right. | |
| You may believe that America is doing something just and exceptional in the world. | |
| About this, you are very, very wrong. | |
| America has a long history of war crimes. | |
| America does not represent the people of America. | |
| America represents the corporations, globalist corporations that have no more allegiance to you as American citizens than they do to me as an Englishman or people from Shit hole countries like Rwanda or the Netherlands or Yugoslavia. | |
| Those places are just corporate dominion. | |
| And while we're locked into this show trial, which I'll admit is fantastic and fascinating, watching Donald Trump, who I'll admit is fascinating and amazing, whether you like him or don't like him, you're watching him, the ratings are going up, Business is booming. | |
| The ads are happening. | |
| Even if you hate him, you're watching him, aren't you? | |
| You're participating. | |
| Or if you love him, you're not addressing this, are you? | |
| We're all playing the game. | |
| We are allowing them to bludgeon us into dull idiocy. | |
| We must awaken now. | |
| We must demand real systemic change. | |
| We must look for new alliances. | |
| But that's just what I think. | |
| Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat. | |
| I'll see you in a second. | |
| Got it right eventually, because he did actually say shithole countries, not bullshit countries. | |
| CTHU1HU, I looked up her porn vids and they're pretty shit. | |
| That's not the research that was required. | |
| Wait a second! | |
| Let's see this! | |
| Even if Stormzy Daniels' porn vids are any good! | |
| She's not even that good at pornography! | |
| I like that we did a whole video there about how this is all we should be looking into war crimes and the military-industrial complex. | |
| The real search is, is this any good? | |
| This just in! | |
| Stormzy Daniels' porn videos ain't even that bloody good! | |
| But! | |
| Now here's a person that understands the deep state at depth, who knows how power works and how power obfuscates. | |
| It's Adam Andrzejewski from OpenTheBooks.com. | |
| We've met before and I thought I loved you then. | |
| And Adam, if anything, you've become yet more beautiful. | |
| Thank you for joining us again. | |
| Mr. Brand, it is great to be here. | |
| Thanks for having me back. | |
| I'm honored that you would even come back after some of the travesties that took place last time. | |
| Adam, thank you for coming. | |
| What I want to ask you about primarily is, given the nature of the charges that Trump faces, it's worth investigating whether they are particularly unique or particularly pronounced or specifically and Obviously worse than the types of crimes that ordinarily take place within political campaigns and campaigning. | |
| Can you give us any sort of references that perhaps contextualise Trump's charges? | |
| Well, it's a sad day for the American people on a lot of levels, Mr. Brand, but specifically, you know, I'm from Illinois. | |
| It is the Super Bowl of corruption, and our governors are legendary for their corrupt practices. | |
| At a recent point, four out of our last nine governors served time in the federal penitentiary. | |
| And so, you know, we've got a unique perspective on this. | |
| It is a new era of brass knuckle politics across the entire country. So for | |
| example, if you're Hillary Clinton, if you have the Clinton Foundation and it's based | |
| in Little Rock, Arkansas, Pulaski County, there's a prosecutor there. And you better | |
| be able to justify your quarter billion dollar endowment or the 75% drop in your | |
| fundraising between the time you left Secretary of State's office and 2020. | |
| If you're Nancy Pelosi, and if you are, you know, if there's a new Republican president, you'll probably get a knock from the Securities and Exchange Commission, and they're going to ask you to justify your stock market trades. | |
| If you're President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, the entire family on a new Republican president, I mean, this opens up a whole Pandora's box. | |
| It is a troubling moment in the history of the country when a local prosecutor goes after a former U.S. | |
| president and leading contender in a major party and decides to arrest I suppose so. | |
| So what you're saying is, is you have to have a legitimate and transparent authority to conduct an investigation like this. | |
| And it's clear, even from the examples that you have cited, that there is no moral authority. | |
| That how would Nancy Pelosi and Paul Pelosi stand up to rigorous investigation? | |
| How would The Hillary and Bill Clinton Foundation look under scrutiny in their relationship with some of their donors. | |
| And more broadly, there is so much systemic corruption, the relationship between politics and finance and the military industrial complex, | |
| lobbying itself, the number of people in Congress that own stocks and shares in companies they regulate. | |
| It's so murky and so messy. | |
| And in fact, obviously that's to some degree what led to the rise of Donald Trump. | |
| His anti-establishment rhetoric being what most people who love him find appealing about him. | |
| That if you are going to start to address these types of issues legitimately, | |
| not as part of a political witch hunt to get rid of a sort of a potential | |
| or an obvious potential opponent, then you're gonna have to dismantle the machine itself. | |
| Well, jailing your political opponents is no solution. | |
| And look, Trump never had a chance here. | |
| Take a look at the case from 2011. | |
| A twice-running former presidential candidate, a former U.S. | |
| Senator from North Carolina, a Democrat, John Edwards. | |
| Well, the Justice Department came in and indicted him on six counts. | |
| For allegedly taking a million dollars worth of campaign cash, actual campaign cash, to cover up his affair with a mistress. | |
| Okay, he beat those charges. | |
| Five were eventually dismissed. | |
| The one that went to the jury that rendered a decision, he was not guilty. | |
| In this case, Trump is being prosecuted for not paying $130,000 for Stormy Daniels and disclosing it as a campaign expense. | |
| The exact opposite of John Edwards. | |
| So you can't have it both ways. | |
| This is a flimsy case, and quite frankly, it's a sad moment for the American experiment. | |
| You can't call America an experiment at this stage, Adam. | |
| Clearly, some results are already in. | |
| Now, I wanted to ask you a little more about earmarks, which I believe you're going to demonstrate to us is a great example of bipartisan corruption. | |
| At the moment, I don't even know what earmarks are. | |
| Will you please, as you have done ever since the moment I first clapped my hungry eyes upon you, educate us, Adam? | |
| Well, earmarks are the currency of corruption in Congress, Mr. Brand. | |
| So, earmarks, they were dead for 10 years. | |
| There was a ban on them because they were so abused in the past. | |
| Earmarks is quite simply a legal bribe, doled out to maximize the power of the House Speaker. | |
| They dole out earmarks. | |
| on these big spending bills, the omnibus, minibus spending bills, to make them bipartisan on the votes. | |
| So you give away a member pet project in their district, and then you grease the skids for the vote. | |
| So in the last omnibus spending bill in December of this year, it was a $1.7 trillion bill. | |
| There was 7,500 earmarks in that bill, costing the American taxpayer $16 billion. | |
| And some of the examples are just absolutely outrageous. | |
| So you've got You've got a million dollars on a macadamia nut research earmark in Hawaii by the U.S. | |
| Senator. | |
| You've got a million dollars doled out to the Great Blacks in Wax Museum by Kawame Nfume, a congressman from Baltimore who actually has a wax statue in the museum. | |
| You've got You've got a million dollars doled out for a new stairway, not to heaven, but to the beach in Mondo Beach, California, so the surfers can hit the waves faster. | |
| You've got a million dollars doled out for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. | |
| You've got $3 million doled out for the hip-hop museum in New York. | |
| You've got $3.5 million doled out by the Republican U.S. | |
| Senator Susan Collins in Maine for the Irish Heritage Museum. | |
| The examples are endless. | |
| Can you tell us a little more about the collusion between Big Pharma and the government? | |
| In particular, we want to talk about the Buys Dole Act. | |
| Recently when we saw Joe Biden railing against the pharmaceutical industry, we were struck | |
| by his failure to use an existing piece of legislation to prevent people paying $190,000 | |
| a year for a cancer drug. | |
| I understand that you know more about this than us, and frankly that's not hard, but | |
| would you please share that knowledge? | |
| So at $180,000, $190,000 a year for this prostate cancer drug, by the way, which is really effective, | |
| activists felt that this would be a great test case example for the National Institutes | |
| of Health to finally come in and use what's called their march-in powers to be able to | |
| knock down the price of that drug. | |
| The National Institutes of Health, they weighed in and they did not use their power. | |
| They did not use their regulatory power to knock it down. | |
| So on its face, This looked like a great textbook example. | |
| There was a high price. | |
| The National Institutes of Health, the U.S. | |
| Army, everyone agreed had helped fund the development of that drug. | |
| UCLA had received those federal grants, and they had pioneered the technologies to help that drug actually come to market. | |
| They had licensed it to the pharmaceutical company, a foreign one from Japan, so you have a foreign pharmaceutical company to boot. | |
| And so they felt this was a great, honest face, this would be a great textbook example to see if, for the first time in history, NIH would use its power to regulate and knock down the price of that drug. | |
| In Japan, for example, it's $30,000, not $190,000 a year. | |
| Well, the Biden administration decided not to use it. | |
| And look, I think it's because this ran right up against the Pfizer footprint, against the Pfizer fiefdom. | |
| So UCLA, which had licensed the technology to the pharmaceutical company, had collected a half billion dollars between 2012 and 2016 on royalties. | |
| But then they sold their future royalty stream out through 2027 for over a billion dollars to Royal Pharmacy, who was then quickly acquired by Pfizer. | |
| Even though the patent for the drug is held by the Japanese pharmaceutical company, the U.S. | |
| market is run by Pfizer. | |
| So now, Russell, you have Pfizer, when they make a sale since 2016 in the United States, not only do they reap the profit from their sale of the pill, but they also reap on the backside a piece of the royalty payment as well. | |
| They're double-dipping every sale on that pill. | |
| So I don't think the Biden administration wanted to get in the way of Pfizer. | |
| Double dipping is unhygienic in any language, isn't it? | |
| It's disgusting to hear of the double dip going on at a time like this during a high-profile case involving a pornography actor. | |
| It's disgusting to hear that the double dip is being practiced so flagrantly. | |
| Adam called you Russell then for the first time. | |
| I saw that and I enjoyed it. | |
| I felt that was more intimate. | |
| You can double dip me in the brand or the Russell, Adam. | |
| Last time we spoke, you were a good enough sport to pluck at random a book from behind yourself and read a passage. | |
| I see those books behind you as your throne of authority. | |
| What particular piece of hermeneutic knowledge will you share today, Adam Andrzejewski? | |
| Hey, I actually prepped a book for you, Mr. Brand. | |
| It's called The War on Waste. | |
| I mean, we need, I want to throw a gauntlet challenge down to President Biden, House Speaker McCarthy, To embrace the transparency revolution, declare war on waste. | |
| I think they'll find it a target-rich environment at every level. | |
| This is a book that was done by Peter Grace at the behest of Ronald Reagan back in the mid-1980s. | |
| It was called the Grace Commission. | |
| And what they found was, when they took a look at federal spending in the 1980s, that 30 percent, 30 cents on every dollar was wasteful spending. | |
| And nobody You mean nobody today believes that that situation is any better? | |
| God, you're adorable. | |
| One of these days, I'm going to come to that corrupt state you're dwelling in and give you such a cuddle. | |
| The day that I'm in that frame with you, able to pluck those leather-bound books from that shelf will be a great day for me. | |
| Adam, thanks once again for continuing to educate us. | |
| You can follow Adam's work by going to openthebooks.com. | |
| We're very grateful to you, both for the great work you've done and for the beautiful face that you have. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | |
| We'll see you again soon. | |
| Thank you very much. | |
| Now, almost as if we're a genuine news channel, we're going to go directly to... Well, no, we're not going to go directly. | |
| We're going to see... Like, we've been dabbling in mainstream media for a little while now. | |
| We spoke recently to an Australian journalist who was live at those Parisian riots. | |
| You know like all of the the media actually outnumbered the public outside the courtroom where Donald Trump was about to be arraigned and he's now been arraigned and like you I didn't use the word arraigned until about 48 hours ago well here we are co-opting and hijacking our own correspondent Robert Sherman before we talk to him let's see him in action on the mainstream media before seeing a different side to a man that I believe to be incredibly handsome And lucid. | |
| Let's look at Robert Sherman doing the news. | |
| No matter how you slice it and no matter how you feel about it, this will be a historic day for the United States. | |
| It has never happened before. | |
| And this is what we're seeing on the streets of New York City. | |
| This was yesterday awaiting the arrival of former President Trump. | |
| Large amounts of media. | |
| It has become a total media frenzy out here. | |
| Robert Sherman, or as we know him on Stay Free, The Shermanator. | |
| Robert is joining us now. | |
| Hey, how's it going, mate? | |
| Well, I'm feeling a lot better now that I've just gotten such a warm compliment and a warm welcoming. | |
| Thank you so much for having me, Russell. | |
| What was it like being there in that media throng? | |
| Is there a lot of competition to get the best spot? | |
| Is there a lot of elbowing one another? | |
| What's the vibe like between reporters on the scene? | |
| You know, I mean, typically at a small story, there's a little bit of camaraderie in something like this. | |
| Nothing of the kind. | |
| And I'll tell you this, Russell, that I thought that the biggest media circus I'd ever see was the Super Bowl or something like that. | |
| Not even close to what we saw here. | |
| You had media outlets coming in from Germany, Japan, Australia. | |
| I mean, you see some of these images, people just crawling on top of one another to get the same photo that the person right next to them is going to get. | |
| I've never seen a scene like this before. | |
| Do you feel pressurised to amplify particular details? | |
| Because, let's face it, not much really happened. | |
| Donald Trump came, he waved a bit, he went into a courtroom. | |
| Do you feel under personal and professional pressure to create a narrative out of, in a sense, just ordinary details? | |
| No, not at all, especially over at Art Network, because this was something that we really talked about here, is that, look, have you had this narrative coming in that there would be, you know, all of this activity happening here, you know, the potential for riots and things like that? | |
| And we said, look, unless the narrative actually happens, don't play into it at all. | |
| That was our perspective. | |
| So we try to stay away from that as much as possible and just give you the facts. | |
| That's good, because we're trying to do that here. | |
| We sort of like see ourselves as, I suppose, an anti-establishment news organization that looks to create alliances from across sectarian divides and infuse our content with the potential for spiritual awakening. | |
| We've got no one on the ground, and that's where we could collaborate. | |
| You, the Shermanator, could be regularly essentially doing what you're doing anyway, but then doing a bit of it for us as well. | |
| Maybe for cred, and if it came to it, possibly for money. | |
| No, it's pretty unbelievable scene that you had out here today. | |
| Nothing like it at all. | |
| But as you said, you know, a whole lot for nothing. | |
| And I think one point to make here as well is that, I mean, you see all these scenes of the people who were outside as well. | |
| I feel compelled to tell your viewers that at least four out of five people who were out here yesterday were either members of law enforcement or members of the press. | |
| I mean, yeah, you had demonstrators who were out here, both for and against the president. | |
| But I mean, press certainly outnumbered protesters. | |
| It wasn't even close out here. | |
| In a way, it's like the spectacle is creating and consuming itself. | |
| It's almost like if there were no media and no law enforcement there, the event kind of wouldn't be happening. | |
| I'm sure that you're familiar with the writing of Jean Baudrillard. | |
| Certainly, if you watch this channel, we're always banging on about him. | |
| Because he talks continually about how the media is creating a sort of synthetic reality that we're all existing in. | |
| And when you look at the work of someone like Chris Hedges, you realise that you're not capable of fully understanding the horror of war, nor would we like to. | |
| So war is kind of simplified to a sort of game. | |
| Justice is simplified to a kind of game. | |
| And all of us are in our own ways participating in it. | |
| Do you ever feel compromised, Robert, or do you feel like you're able to keep in alignment with your personal principles even when participating? | |
| As you know, I accept that we are also in the reporting of a sensational story that's doubtless being amplified for the purposes of entertainment rather than justice, say. | |
| Right. | |
| And you know, I mean, that is what you have to do as a journalist. | |
| And I'm not going to lie to you. | |
| I mean, everybody who's out here who is a journalist has an opinion on what's going on here. | |
| You have to put that aside. | |
| And of course, you know, your viewers are well aware of it. | |
| There are some people who don't do that. | |
| But you have to put it aside. | |
| You have to just call the balls and strikes as they happen out here, which is what we've been trying to do. | |
| But, I mean, of course, you know, there are some people who don't do that. | |
| And there's some people who do, you know, stoke the flames a little bit. | |
| I would push back, though, and say one thing, though, is that a large part of the reason that so much of this attention came down here was because of the former president putting so much, so much of a limelight on this case with some of the things that he put on social media a couple of weeks ago. | |
| Of course, the indictment brought a lot more attention to that, but it's not as if the limelight just is created by the press. | |
| There is a starting point as well, and sometimes we just come out here. | |
| I suppose so, yeah. | |
| One of the things we try to do is use it as a means to pose this kind of story with other stories like, you know, we've done some analysis on NATO and tomorrow we're talking to Aaron Maté about NATO's expansion into Finland, for example. | |
| And we are just really trying to tackle the complexity of being respectful of various and often opposing mainstream and alternative news perspectives. | |
| But I can see and feel that you're really open to that. | |
| So in a sense, this could be the beginning of a longstanding and eventually, | |
| I would say, erotic collaboration. | |
| Well, open to anything as well. | |
| Really appreciate you having us on, Russell. | |
| Thank you so much. | |
| Robert Sherman there. | |
| The Shermanator. | |
| Look at that. | |
| What a pro. | |
| What a brilliant segue. | |
| We couldn't do that. | |
| Thanks for joining us. | |
| Live on the scene, the Shermanator will be joining you again for sure. | |
| Thanks so much, Robert. | |
| It's good to chat to you, mate. | |
| Thank you for having me. | |
| Take care. | |
| There he goes. | |
| One of the best goddamn journalists, I'd say. | |
| Questions about Baudrillard and eroticism, I can't imagine. | |
| I think he dealt with it very deftly, didn't he? | |
| In his bar, bar. | |
| I thought he was more relaxed with us. | |
| Very relaxed. | |
| I think we bring out the best in people. | |
| I'm not taking all the credit for Robert Sherman's personality. | |
| That's a complex thing that's come about over time and his whole family have to take credit for, as well as culture itself. | |
| But I reckon we bring out the best in him and perhaps in each other. | |
| Who could possibly say? | |
| Hey, guess what's happening? | |
| Tomorrow, as I just said to the Shermanator, we've got Aaron Maté coming on to talk about NATO, to talk about the use of this trial. | |
| We're going to talk also about how one of the things that Trump said that was I would say somewhat iconoclastic and challenging was that you don't even need NATO. | |
| Why not disband NATO? | |
| That's the kind of rabble-rousing stuff that Trump came out with that caused so many people to condemn him and so many people to adore him. | |
| If you want, you can sign up to Locals for weekly guided meditations, live podcast recordings. | |
| There's all sorts of stuff that we do here. | |
| We're going to be having a break We're going to have a break soon. | |
| Over the time of Easter, whether you consider it to be a pagan festival or a Christian festival, or simply something that's happening in your hemisphere, we're going to have a little break to regenerate and renew ourselves. | |
| So we're on on Thursday, we're on on Friday. | |
| Friday we're going to have a fantastic show. | |
| I think we're going to have an interview with Rainn Wilson from the office, talking about his new book, about spirituality and stuff. | |
| These books are coming out in a little while. | |
| So we've got some fantastic shows coming up this week. | |
| Join us tomorrow, not for more of the same, but for more of the different. |
