LIVE FROM MAR A LAGO: US, Russia & China to Negotiate While UK Ramps Up in Ukraine – SF539
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
Hello there, you awakening wonders.
Thanks so much for joining us today on what seems like, for me at least, an extraordinary and unusual situation.
Out that window is that Mar or Largo.
That's Mar out there, isn't it?
That's Mar right there.
Over there is Largo.
Wherever you are watching us, you might be watching us on X, you might be watching us on YouTube, or maybe our great home.
Rumble.
And if you don't have Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now because then you get access to our additional content.
And you never know what additional content we'll be making here today live from Mar-a-Lago, which is, I've got to say, it's like being in Disney World.
It's extraordinary.
It's overstimulating.
There's Secret Service everywhere.
Obviously, for understandable reasons, two attempts.
On the president's life, a kind of ongoing global antagonism, the sense that we could be on the precipice of something extraordinary and important.
I'm told at the moment he's out playing golf.
He stops mid-golf and has lunch mid-golf, then he continues, then he returns.
I mean, it's just so astonishing to be here.
Even if you regarded Donald Trump with the highest level of antipathy imaginable.
What you couldn't deny is that this is a fascinating man at a fascinating time.
One of the stories we'll talk about later is his sort of audacious bid to get China and Russia to slash their military spending by 50%.
A story that's peculiarly gone over the radar.
And one of the themes of today is left versus right.
There are these extraordinary areas where radicals from the left and radicals from the right are starting to agree on a variety of subjects.
For example, the New York Times took J.D. Vance apart for something he said in his speech.
Brilliant bit of writing by Aaron Maté, who's as left as left as left can be, like he's Jewish and pro-Palestine, and yet he contests the New York Times' take on the J.D. Vance speech.
We've got stuff like that.
But before we get into it, and before we get into sort of what other...
You know, who knows what extraordinary things will happen at Mar-a-Lago.
I mean, it's difficult for me not to look in this direction as the Atlantic Ocean crashes while people carry on with their vacations.
The extraordinariness of this place and this time.
What is this?
Let's work it all out together.
Right, so we'll start off.
We're going to be with you wherever you're watching.
We'll stay with you for about half an hour.
Then we're going to be exclusively on Rumble.
Then we're going to do an additional...
Our on Rumble Premium, because there's just so much to talk about.
Let me know in the comments in chat what particularly interests you, and we're going to try and get through all of it.
We're going to do some silly dumb stuff at first, you know, soppy stories.
Dickipedia.
Because it's really funny, like Wikipedia are campaigning to raise money, and Musk says, I'll give you a billion dollars if you change your name to Dickipedia.
Imagine if you were actually charged with raising those funds.
You'd have to at least consider, Oh God, are we going to have to change it to Dickopedia?
Doesn't that undermine everything we're doing?
This is the mad trickster mentality that's been unleashed in, you know, you have to say, mainstream politics as a result.
You can come off that now, darling.
But then we're going to be talking about, there's so much to talk about with Ukraine.
There's the UK's pledge through Keir Starmer, our Prime Minister, that he's going to send peacekeepers.
Peacekeepers to Ukraine to keep peace.
But to keep peace when there's already a war means participate in a war.
And while there might be claims made, they'll be in non-combat roles when they'll only be in non-combat roles, don't you remember all of this kind of rhetoric before, like in the Iraq war?
Aren't you sort of sick and tired of these glistening turds, of this claptrap and crap that they unload upon us?
So we're going to be covering that.
Let me know if you're interested in the UK's pledge to lend, like, you know, boots on the ground at a time where negotiations are beginning in Saudi Arabia.
There are peace talks between Russia...
I like the no more bullshit approach.
That's it.
Let's stop pretending this isn't a proxy war between Russia and America.
Let's not pretend that Ukraine can continue without NATO support and without US financing and military support.
If that's a prerequisite for the perpetuation of the conflict, then who ultimately is fighting and who ultimately is paying for it?
Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.
We'll be talking about the US's new position on Ukraine and the peace talks.
And also the idea that, like, Trump is regarded as a warmonger when he, sort of more than Biden, more than any sort of president in memory, is seeking to bring about peace.
Now, I don't know, man.
We can sort of bicker and argue.
Let's not bicker and argue over who killed who and who killed who.
If you know what film that's from, let me know in the chat, and we'll give you some Donald Trump mints.
That's right.
We got a pack of Donald Trump mints, don't we, Isaac?
We got them from Greens in Palm Beach.
Yeah, then we're going to be talking about censorship and sort of USAID's continuing role in censorship.
And we're also, there's some mad stuff about vaccines.
Essentially, the mainstream media are talking about links between mRNA vaccines and cancer.
And we've got a brilliant story from the UK about, I can't even believe I'm telling you this, that they offered, Moderna offered children...
Peddy bears in order to participate in clinical trials.
It's like Big Pharma, not satisfied with peddling bad medicine, are trying to mimic the actual child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in, like, pedophile medicine.
Lollipops!
Lollipops, take your jab, baby!
It's pedo medicine now.
No wonder there's so many children missing all across the world and child trafficking at extraordinary all-time highs because it seems like there's some weird, dark stuff going on.
And I'm at Mar-a-Lago participating in an event today.
As you know, I'm here.
Mike Tyson is...
He is somewhere.
It's an extraordinary day.
Let's just get into some of the silliness.
Firstly, back in my beloved homeland, the United Kingdom, David Tennant, brilliant actor who played Doctor Who memorably and excellently hosted the BAFTA Awards.
That's like the British equivalent of the Oscars.
Now, let me know in the comments and chat if you care anymore about these galas and events that offer accolades to people for sort of dressing up and performing.
I don't mean derisory and dismissive about actors because, you know, think about an amazing thing like Godfather or a British...
I mean, the original one with Dudley Moore.
Oh, Dudley Moore, God rest your eternal soul, you brilliant, brilliant genius.
The main reason I did that movie, Arthur, by the way, is because Dudley Moore had done it.
And, you know, he died, I think, in Palm Beach.
He kind of lived around here somewhere.
Anyway, let's get into...
What I consider to be the dark side of entertainment is continuing politicization.
It's ongoing sort of agitation.
And my mate Gareth, who, you know Gareth, of course, who prepares this content, he says, watching David Tennant, it's like this speech is from 10 years ago.
It's like, you know, look at this.
Ask yourself this question.
We can do this together because I'm watching this clip for the first time like you.
Does David Tennant appear to have calibrated these ideas?
The Biden administration was inept.
They botched Afghanistan.
They're clearly in the hock and pay of massive financial interests, global corporatist power.
Since then, Bobby Kennedy has ultimately left the Democrat Party and has now been appointed as Secretary of Health and Human Services.
This is an extraordinary and staggering revelation.
Since then, Tulsi Gabbard has become a member of the Trump administration.
see if these facts have been calibrated into david tenet's perspective and i say this with respect to david tenet he's a good actor but let's let's watch this together and see what we think and let me know what you think about that kind of general hollywood elite condemnation of populist politicians who can make i think a legitimate claim to be more efficiently represented in the interests of ordinary people than the kind of globalists who mask themselves in the lacquer of woke
let's make some noise for the sublime the brutalist A film about incredible architecture.
In fact, it's the boldest architecture in film this year, apart from Donald Trump's hair and The Apprentice.
Donald Trump, of course, he says he hasn't seen the...
Pretty weak.
Pretty weak joke, pretty weak, because, like, oh, man, you know, I had that spat, didn't I, with Donald Trump years ago, because I was making a documentary with Oliver Stone, the brilliant filmmaker, and...
Donald Trump had let Oliver Stone use all of these buildings to make, I think, Wall Street 2. Anyway, I made a bunch of jokes about Donald Trump.
You know, those kind of jokes.
You know, hair.
Lame, frankly, jokes.
Not good enough.
Anyway, that was like 10 years ago.
That was 15 years ago, and they were lame then.
That's not a good enough joke.
You're going to have to, because all it is, I would call it a satisfatic and...
Impersonative humour.
And also David Tennant's hair don't look great in that either, does it?
It looks sort of too much lacquered, like a loaf.
Some sort of slick loaf.
He hasn't seen The Apprentice because it's a 15. It's not on Nickelodeon.
That's not good enough.
That's not good enough.
Like Donald Trump watches Nickelodeon.
That's not good enough.
Also, by the way, at this point when you're insulting Donald Trump, you're insulting...
Insulting the United States of America because he is the President of the United States of America, brought to power under an extraordinarily popular mandate.
The electoral vote, the college vote, the Senate, Congress.
I mean, this is a person that...
And also, if you spend time in America, and obviously I'm here right now, the people that love Donald Trump, they're not all, I'm all right!
It's not all sundown town.
It's not all racists.
It's like, good...
Decent American people.
You go to a cheesecake factory anywhere in America, these people love Donald Trump.
So what you're saying is, I hate working class people.
And because people can't say, I hate working class people, and I'm not claiming that David Tennant didn't grow up working class or whatever.
Maybe he did.
I feel like his dad was maybe a minister of some kind.
I'm not saying that.
I'm saying culturally, ways of condemning ordinary people have become sort of very insidious and very...
Deft.
It happened in my country around Brexit.
All those racists are not racist.
They're northern.
They're not racist.
They're working class.
They're not racist.
They're concerned about what's happening to their country.
They're not racist.
They're sick and tired of being spoken down to.
They're not racist.
They're sick and tired of people representing the interests of big business and global corporations while simultaneously condemning them.
So when you come out and make jokes about Donald Trump, you've got to be a bit better than he watches Nickelodeon or his hair looks like shredded wheat.
That was my one 15 years ago.
And people don't even get that reference because they don't have shredded wheat in America.
It's a complete...
Wasted joke.
What you've got to do is you've got to try and understand what's happening.
And people don't want to understand what's happening.
People feel disconnected from the institutions of government, like the judiciary, the electoral process itself, both of the political parties, both of them, and from the media, precisely because now when people say we're going to war to protect democracy, they mean a set of institutions.
They don't mean...
Electoral representative democracy.
They don't mean that anymore.
Isn't it baffling to recall that it was the Republican Party that fought to end slavery while the Democrat Party fought to cling on to it?
No wonder they work so hard at woke because their policies are a joke.
But that's what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat and let's see how much further David Tennant can get with this sort of ribald, insipid, Luke warm milk toast mockery of Trump.
See?
Donald Trump.
I've said his name three times.
It's like Beetlejuice I've summoned him.
Talking of villains...
Oh no, it's not good enough, is it?
It's just not good enough.
You're going to need more than that, you kilt, mate.
What's really fascinating to me is that this condemnation, broadly speaking, is being offered as a kind of attack and discharge of what they, I reckon is being offered as a kind of attack and discharge of what they, I reckon in that But what are they actually celebrating?
Making expensive movies that are about marginal and peripheral tastes.
If actually what you care about is the populare, the vulgari, the folk, the people of the land.
There's some issues they really care about.
Like, for example, in the United Kingdom, I don't think the majority of people want to escalate the war between Ukraine and Russia and fund it.
But that's what Keir Starmer is pledging to do.
So power now in the UK. Donald Trump ain't UK power.
Keir Starmer is UK power.
And what Keir Starmer is doing is threatening to send...
British men and women to die in an unwinnable conflict that could be resolved.
Well, who is it that's holding peace talks now?
Oh, yeah, Donald Trump.
That terrible baddie.
He's the villain Naranja.
He's orange, you see.
You're going to have to dig deeper and go further, man, to get anywhere on that.
You're going to have to investigate.
What is it that has made him the most influential and popular president in living memory?
I don't know.
Well, how far do you want to go back?
Reagan?
JFK? How far do you want to go back?
Obama?
Let's talk about that dude and how he ran things while he was in office.
Let's talk about the 2008 crash.
Let's talk about all of the drone strikes.
Let's talk about the deception.
Let's talk about the fact that he had cages.
The whole class that Tennant's speech represents is dead.
It's a dead class.
It's a dead ideology.
It's broken and it's over.
And me, like you, I don't know if populism and nationalism and a kind of emergent sort of folk culture is going to save the world, but it is better than what they were offering.
It's better.
That's the problem.
They were a different type of insidious imperialist, globalist, corporatist movement that masked itself in the pretense that they cared for ordinary working people.
We've learned so much about the true nature of even social democratic forms of social care, let alone Soviet-style socialism.
Social democracy leads inevitably to centralised control and authoritarianism.
What they've created now is a system where in the UK, whatever party you vote for, you're going to vote for war.
I'm going to get into that a bit later.
I'm getting ahead of myself.
Sorry, I've got to...
I got excited.
Let's finish off this thing about Tennant.
We've had many this year.
David Tennant, maybe you should drink a few cans of it.
That's a British joke.
Tennant is a super strength lager enjoyed by homeless people.
9%.
I used to drink it.
When I was an alcoholic, 22 years clean and sober.
Now, thanks to the Heavenly Father.
All right, Delta.
Let's not go on a Delta plane unless you're insane in the membrane, whether you're watching this on X or YouTube.
Sorry, Delta.
I'll probably have to get a Delta soon, and I don't want to irritate them.
I mean, it's just when you watch it, like, you know, this...
Blessedly, I pray no one has died as a result of this, but have you seen this thing?
Have you seen this thing?
I mean, do you remember when Delta were just crashing everywhere?
Boeing, when it was Boeing.
Is this a Boeing?
I hope, I mean, it's flipping around, it's rolling around like a sausage!
That guy touched that woman's arse, that was unnecessary.
Holy fuck!
It's so insane!
That's so insane, isn't it?
That is the nightmare.
You know when there's turbulence and you're like, oh no, this is it!
I'm going to die!
I feel like if you have to reach out and touch another bit of the aeroplane, I don't like that.
Brace yourself!
Brace yourself!
And you run the whole thing in the head.
Oh my god!
My kids!
My children!
If you're actually on a beach!
They're on a beach, man, isn't it?
Is that a beach they're on?
Oh, there's snow?
Oh, that's even worse.
That's a- this is a- this is Grand Theft Auto.
Holy fuck!
Sir, would you mind your language?
Children could be watching this plane crash.
Holy fuck!
Holy- Sir, I'm not gonna ask you again.
Would you mind your language?
You please sit back in your seat, sir.
Your seat's upside down.
Oh.
But anyway, mind your language.
Fuck!
Oh my fucking god!
Oh my god, that is what you do, isn't it?
Oh my fuck it, because that person's happy to be alive.
I mean, that's a broadcast live from the afterlife.
I mean, imagine the feelings you're having when that thing's going down.
Oh no, this is it!
Oh, I'm a good person.
Sorry, God.
Sorry, God, for everything I'm down with.
Forgive me.
No atheists on a delta, baby.
No atheists on a delta.
My fucking god.
Yo, I was just on this fucking plane.
Look at that plane all upside down and embarrassed.
Oh, sorry.
I'm sniffing the air.
I'm sniffing the air.
Oh, man, that's so heavy.
Oh, that's so heavy.
I'm never getting on that.
Like B.A. Barakas, I ain't getting on no plane, fool.
You sucker.
There you go.
Visual pun on top of everything else.
I'm Russell Brand.
This is Stay Free with Russell Brand.
We are live at Mar-a-Lago.
You might be watching this on X. You might be reading about this on Dickopedia.
You might be on YouTube who do deals with governments to censor free speech advocates.
And I'm in Mar-a-Lago today to win.
An award for free speech.
I think it's basically just a way of getting people to...
I mean, you know, I don't...
What do you think?
I mean, no, I'm grateful for the...
I don't know.
Hey, you can't take...
If you don't take BAFTAs seriously, don't take no awards seriously.
Don't take...
I'll tell you what's serious.
Going anywhere on a Delta plane.
That's what's serious, baby.
All right, man.
Okay, so wherever you're watching us, you know, we're in Mar-a-Lago now.
I wish you could join us, but the security is pretty, pretty tight.
I've got to tell you, they nearly didn't let Isaac and Jake in.
All right, guys, shall we play a quick commercial?
We'll be right back after this important message.
Senolytics are the biggest discovery for promoting healthy aging.
The aging process obviously isn't our friend, unless I suppose, you know, there's eternal life.
But while we're here, we want to be energetic and productive.
That's why I use Qualia Senolytic.
Science-backed ingredients that have helped me feel, I would say, 15 years younger in a matter of just months.
Everyone accumulates senescent cells.
Known as zombie cells, these senescent cells are old and worn out and not fulfilling a useful function for our health, but they take up space and nutrients from our healthy cells.
Qualia senolytic removes zombie cells and allow healthy cells to thrive.
Resist aging at the cellular level.
Try Qualia Senolytic.

There's a link in the description.
Who don't want to feel 15 years younger and get rid of them zombie cells?
Hey, I'm at Mar-a-Lago.
That is the Mar.
In Mar-a-Lago, out that way.
Nice.
It looks pretty good, man.
It's pretty distracting.
In my mind, I sort of keep thinking Donald Trump's going to walk in.
I can imagine.
I don't know why.
Like, I'm imagining it happening in my mind.
I don't know why.
Is it going to happen?
That'd be so mad if that happens.
Yeah, he's around here, man.
It's pretty interesting.
It's pretty interesting.
NBC News.
You see that mad Delta plane flip, rock and roll, mad, weird, awful plane crash.
Thankfully, no one died.
Praise the Heavenly Father.
NBC is using that plane crash that happened under...
Canadian air traffic control sort of blamed Trump for something or another.
That's that kind of ongoing derangement, man, that we saw at that BAFTA award.
I did want to, you know, underscore to pick up on the conversation you were just having, though, in terms of the recent string of aviation incidents, Tom.
This is going to, yet again, raise the concern about FAA staffing, air traffic control staffing.
Now, this is a Canadian air traffic control tower, and this is under Canadian authority once across As you know, there has been this talk about maybe staff cuts at the FAA as a part of President Trump's effort to trim down the federal workforce.
Great, that's great.
That's good propaganda.
Because of the trimming down of the federal workforce, Canadian air traffic control is being affected.
What?
Because of Doge.
That's what that was, was it?
Well, okay, and how does that affect Trump's audacious claim to colonize Canada?
Oh, wait, no, then he would be in charge of that.
Okay, it's extraordinary, really.
Look, we've got a bunch of crazy stories to get through with you today.
In a minute, we're going to be talking about U.S. Ukraine, the suggestion, oh man, he's...
He's the art of the deal president, isn't he?
So he's talking about how the US could support Ukraine in exchange for rare minerals.
Let me know in the comments and chat if you want to see that story.
Let me know in the comments and chat if you want to see us talking about these potential peace deals.
A fascinating story that's going under the radar.
Not with the Stay Free team, though.
We at the Stay Free team are determined to bring you stories that will help you to get a better perspective.
A perspective that will hopefully help you to understand that we have to unify.
We have to take personal responsibility for our lives.
And we have to recognize that as politics shifts and alters, so must work.
We have to get ourselves in a position to be empowered in our own lives.
You can't sort of sit there like bickering nitwits, braying.
You have to take responsibility for yourself.
Now, let me know.
Yo, Isaac, have a look at the chat.
What do people want to see me talk about first and explore first with the great support of everyone working at the Stay Free team?
Luke, who does our social media.
Massey, who cuts this stuff up.
Isaac there, who's directing the show.
Beloved Gareth, who you know well, and Jake, who's leading the whole thing.
Let me know what you want to see first.
UK-Ukraine, because this represents a massive split.
This is where, like, whoever you vote for in the UK, you'll vote in to potentially send troops to support this war that the US now don't want no business with.
Or do you want to hear that US support could continue in exchange for minerals?
That's another component of this.
Or do you want to hear about Trump's new peace agreement with China and Russia to mutually draw down military budget?
It's by 50%.
I mean, that's Epocal.
That's what we've titled our show around today, live from Mar-a-Lago.
So we'll definitely be covering it all at some point.
But let me know.
US, Ukraine, UK, Ukraine, or Trump and peace?
You let me know in the comments and chat.
Particularly if you're watching us on Locals, that means that you support us there and you get access to all of our additional content.
Or if you're on Rumble Premium.
And if you're not on Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now.
You get additional content from me, from Glenn Greenwald, from Bongino, from...
It's a great little service, plus you get ad-free.
You know how annoying it is when you get programmatic ads.
Yeah, US and Ukraine.
Let's start with that, and then we're going to do some more stuff.
Okay.
Trump is the art of the deal president.
Is it possible that the US will support Ukraine in exchange for mineral resources, beautiful minerals?
Let's get into that together.
So we're getting security on our money.
We're going to have it.
They have raw earth and they have oil and gas and they have a lot of other things.
And we're asking for security in our money.
They've agreed to it.
Ukraine has agreed to it.
No, we are, but we want it secured and the money is going to be secured.
Because if we didn't do that, then...
Putin would say he won.
We're the thing that's holding it back.
And frankly, we'll go as long as we have to go because we're not going to let the other happen.
I feel like it's like no more bullshit.
That's what I feel like when I'm watching him.
Up until recently, it's bullshit when you see Joe Biden going, if we send troops to World War III, for Christ's sake, and then they facilitate and sanction the use of long-range missiles within Crimea.
We ain't dumb no more.
We got immediate and instantaneous communication.
And that gives us the ability to critique and observe both the new and emergent Trump administration in a kind of very novel and unique format now.
This ain't Trump 2016. This is Trump 2020. What are you in?
Five.
2025. There's someone who should name a project after that.
This is Trump 2025. This is Trump plus Tulsi plus JD plus Elon plus Vivek and plus my man Bobby Kennedy.
We have to be able to articulate these distinctions and recognise what globalist imperialist bureaucracy was leading us towards.
Just to unpack that a little, what is NATO really?
What is the benefit and what is the advantage of NATO? How can you say that?
Without NATO, NATO's been like a father to you!
Great organisation!
You'd be speaking German right now!
I don't know so much anymore.
It seems to me that it's a racket.
It's a racket, baby.
Let's have a look at what the British media are talking about here.
Oh my God.
All right, so Donald Trump's demand for $500 billion payback from Ukraine goes far beyond U.S. control over the country's critical minerals.
It covers everything from ports and infrastructure to oil and gas and the larger resource base of the country.
The terms of the contract that landed at Vladimir Zelensky's office a week ago amount to the U.S. economic colonization of Ukraine.
But what does joining NATO represent?
The bureaucratic globalist colonization of Ukraine.
You can't attack...
Donald Trump.
From a place of self-righteousness when all he's doing is a version of what they were trying to do bureaucratically through a more conventional form of economic, nationalised imperialism.
By nationalised, I mean the interests of the United States.
Up until the election of Trump, it just seemed inevitable that we were going to see advancing globalism.
The WHO have decided that everyone has to take this medicine.
The WEF recommends that you have a chip placed under your skin.
NATO have decided.
That your sons and daughters are going to die in a war.
The World Bank have decided that we're going to increase...
Like, now what it is, is this new sort of nationalised...
Kind of old-school imperialism.
Oh, man, can we secure this in my eyeline, mate?
It's too far away from me.
Like, look, when I let go of it, it slides off like that because of the tension of the cable.
So can we secure this here?
Because I've not got very good eyesight, particularly not when staring into a light.
So can we stabilize that?
There's probably a cable is pulling it back, is it?
Can you get some slack in that and then stabilize it about there if you don't mind?
Thank you very much.
Right, let's have a look at what if you want to know about war.
Talk to a warmonger.
Here's Lindsey Graham's take on this.
I think the main thing for me is that Ukraine has value.
Literally has value.
Right.
So you can talk about democracy, and people love talking about democracy here, which is great to talk about democracy, but where were you in 2014 when they actually needed you?
So Trump now sees Ukraine.
Differently.
Because of the rare earth stuff.
Oh, my God.
I said, playing golf, these people are sitting on literally a gold mine.
What did he say?
What do you mean?
I showed him a map.
Yeah.
Look.
You know, everybody says Putin wants to reconstruct the Soviet Union and the Russian Empire.
You should have a map of the rare earth on the golf course?
Not on the golf course.
Oh, okay.
But later.
Later, yeah.
He's seen this.
Look.
This stuff is...
That's one of the reasons the guys wanting to go into Ukraine is take their stuff.
I mean, there's trillions of dollars of very valuable...
That's what I mean by no bullshit politics.
Do you remember when it was like Kamala Harris and Biden?
This is humanitarian.
Putin's a war criminal.
Won't somebody please, please think of the Ukrainian children?
Trump, there's minerals over there.
If we're going to continue our aid, we're going to secure it against those minerals.
And we're going to start using their ports and we're going to use it as a bulwark against Russia.
That's how we're going to negotiate.
They were doing that anyway while lying about it.
What they do, when I say they, I mean sort of like what you might call neoliberal, centralist, globalist, the political class, is say, oh, have you seen this image of some rubble in Kiev?
Doesn't it break your heart?
And also, couldn't we make some money out of that and pretend to be helping people?
It's no bullshit politics.
Here's Lindsey Graham saying it is, was, always is ultimately going to be about dominion, minerals, resources, power.
Stop pretending that it is a very valuable rare earth minerals that he's trying to take by force.
And I told President Trump, that's not a good way to do business.
So you made Donald Trump a Ukraine hawk by showing him that map, huh?
Well, I don't know if he's a Ukraine hawk, but I made him understand that if you let Putin get away with this, grabbing stuff at not his but force, other people will start doing it.
If we don't take over, someone else will.
Let's see how this ex-dude responds to it.
Oh, what I like about this is, yeah, it kind of offers us the analysis that Trump sees things in economic and business terms, i.e.
the art of the deal.
The land belongs to Russia.
The resources belong to the United States.
The debt belongs to the European Union.
And the glory belongs to Ukraine.
Trump's demand for a $500 billion payback from Ukraine goes far beyond U.S. control over the country's critical minerals.
It covers everything from ports and infrastructure to oil and gas.
We touched on that a minute ago, didn't we?
And the larger resource base of the country.
Now, what's the claim that the detractors of Putin make?
That, oh, well, Putin, if he gets hold of Ukraine, is going to take over the whole of Europe.
But what do we learn when we look at the origins of this conflict?
That NATO had been slowly encircling Russia in breach of agreements with the former Soviet Union.
Imperialism, colonialism and power are the motives of everyone involved in this conflict.
And in a sense, the bravery of the Ukrainian people is simply a sheath over imperialist interest.
But that's just what I think.
Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
Let's have a look at CNN because the legacy media now are even admitting that American support for this ongoing conflict is...
is waning.
We're live in Mar-a-Lago.
We're going to stay with you for a little while longer, even if you're watching us on X or YouTube, even though you know that we want you to join us on Rumble and support us there.
Let's have a look at CNN acknowledging that American people don't want to fund this war anymore.
So a peace deal, which is something we'll be talking about a little later, is precisely what your country is demanding.
Holy Toledo.
Look at this trend line here.
U.S. support for...
Holy Toledo, which is a thing that no one else ever says, but I've kind of...
I'm going to mint that phrase.
Support for Ukraine is too much.
Back when the war began, back in February of 2022, it was just 7%.
Up like a rocket ship.
Why does he like numbers so much, this guy?
Up like a rocket ship.
Up like my little guy.
When I see these numbers, I'm stiff as a board.
I just went from 6 to midnight.
That's a hell of a...
My goodness, up now in February of 2025 to 41%.
And the clear majority of Republicans, and of course Republicans are in charge of the U.S. government now, 62% of Republicans say that the U.S. support for Ukraine is too much.
What a difference from just three years ago.
I can remember, John, all those backyards in the United States with those Ukrainian flags.
Far fewer of them today as Americans' opinions on Ukraine.
I like the way John was revealed there.
He was there all along, John.
I remember three years ago.
Pan out, pan out.
There's John, baby.
We're making news at CNN. Americans' opinions on Ukraine have changed dramatically.
What about opinions of the Ukrainian president?
Right.
You know, obviously...
But what about this?
Have you got another graph?
You better believe I've got another graph.
This one, I'm going to nudge it with my nuts.
Obviously, if you would expect changes amongst the public on feelings towards Ukraine, feelings towards...
Feelings?
Can't have a graph on feelings.
That's so subjective.
They're supposed to be the grown-up.
They laugh at us.
On independent media, they laugh at you.
Us because, look, you know, my collar's wonky, or whatever.
They go, look at him.
His collar's not facing the right way.
He's at the seaside.
That's not how you do news.
I've got a graph.
Then they produce a graph on people's feelings, which clearly sexually arouses them.
Zelensky have changed also, dramatically.
Look at this.
Confident Zelensky will do the right thing when it comes to world affairs.
Back in 2022, it was the clear majority.
72%.
Through the floor.
He loves doing that, doesn't he?
He loves underlining some of his finger like he's our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ protecting the adulterous woman.
And then...
This isn't the news.
Through the floor.
I like him, actually.
I want to do a show with him.
He brings a lot of pizzazz.
Come a Mar-a-Lago!
Holy Toledo, we're at Mar-a-Lago!
We're gonna have a tomato and a potato and Lara Logan!
At Mar-a-Lago!
Holy crap!
Look at this.
Here's a graph about how I felt this morning.
I woke up, whoops, stiff as a board.
Then I look out the window.
What's the mailman?
He's shaking his fist at the door.
Oh no, that's Mrs. Me.
She's down in the dumps now.
See another graph?
I'm back in business, baby!
Through the floor.
Through the floor by 2024. Just 48% of Americans say that they're confident that Zelensky will do the right thing when it comes to world affairs.
And GOP confidence has also plummeted dramatically.
Now the clear majority...
Oh, Zelensky.
We've got a graph here that says Zelensky sounds too much like a Dalek from Doctor Who.
Let's listen to a Dalek.
Exterminate!
Exterminate!
And let's listen to Zelensky.
Give us your money.
Give us your taxes.
Too much like it.
And here is Doctor Who himself, David Tennant.
Hey, do you know what I noticed?
Donald Trump is a little bit orange isn't he No He is a little bit orange He probably Watches programs like children watch Like Nickelodeon No Everyone in this room might be a paedophile.
There's all these weird paedophile rings.
What's going on?
We did it.
Who let Ricky Gervais back in this gig?
A clear majority of Republicans are not confident, not confident, that Zelensky will do the right thing when it comes to world affairs.
Really, a real trend line, ones you rarely see in the American public when it comes to Ukraine and Zelensky.
Confidence in both going down through the ground.
Look, some allies of President Trump have targeted Zelensky with harsh criticism over the last few years, and it could be that that's having...
It could be the harsh criticism.
Harsh criticism, that causes consequences and costs.
So does military support in an unwinnable war against an armed nuclear superpower backed by KGB operative Vladimir Putin.
He ain't no joke!
Like, what I've started to learn is, you know, your intuition about when you sort of, like, feel like, hmm, I don't think you should go to war with Russia.
Haven't they got nuclear weapons right at the beginning of all this craziness?
That's right!
And then the news comes on and tells you, you shouldn't believe that, and anyway, they're only peacekeeping forces.
You're right!
You're actually right!
They've been lying to you all along, your whole life.
They've been lying to you, manipulating you, dulling down your spirit, making you doubt yourself, making you doubt your intuition, making you doubt who you are, making you doubt what's right and what's wrong.
Is it okay to love your country?
Is it okay to love your family?
Is it okay to love women?
Is it okay to make jokes?
No!
None of it's okay!
It could be that that's having some impact here.
Absolutely.
The Republican establishment, the Republican electorate has moved as the Republican establishment and Republican leaders have moved on.
All right.
Let's talk about the idea of a peace deal.
And again, the way you ask this matters.
The way you ask it is important.
So we can talk about this a little bit.
So the poll question essentially is, do you support a Russia-Ukraine negotiated peace deal?
The vast majority of Americans, this is what they want.
78% I want to negotiate a peace deal.
So there you go.
If you agreed that you lived in a true republic or an electoral democracy, the will of the people would matter.
What you, I reckon, want is to feel that your leaders are servants that are the representative of the national will.
The national psyche in some way.
Maybe it's impossible to have a national psyche because it's too vast of an enterprise.
Too big, 330 million people.
The idea that there could be one composite psyche derived from such a large population is possibly preposterous.
And if that is true, then you're going to have to federalize the United States once again and look at the country's origins and break it apart and decentralize wherever possible.
But in any event, at this point, you're going to have a massive military, aren't you?
And what you want probably is a leader.
That speaks in plain and practical terms, in terms of...
Let's cut expenditure on missiles or armaments generally by 50%.
I mean, this is an extraordinary pledge, and we'll be covering that in a minute.
Let's have a look at Glenn Greenwald, who's also a Rumble contributor.
If you get Rumble Premium, you get additional content from me, from Glenn Greenwald, from Bongino, from Crowder.
So join us over there, wherever you're watching us.
If you're watching us now on X or YouTube or wherever you're watching us, here's Glenn Greenwald reacting to this.
Holy Toledo!
Yeah, there's that guy!
American support for Ukraine has plummeted.
Holy Toledo.
I'm going to start saying that.
The history of American war since World War II, says Greenwald, almost without exception, is that the population gets manipulated to support the latest war based on a tsunami of war propaganda that plays on their most primal emotions.
Then, at some point, they come in large numbers to regret it.
Well, that does seem like a pretty reasonable appraisal of war.
Don't you need precisely a president that's going to see it as a...
Deal.
What's the best possible outcome for everyone?
And even if you hate Donald Trump on account of his hair, his orangeness, or whatever's been projected at you from the media, you have to recognize that that is a favorable trajectory rather than the peculiar globalist pursuit of a military victory over Russia.
Russia!
Napoleon, defeated.
Hitler, defeated.
The West, potentially defeated.
Get a grip.
Do a deal.
But that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
We are live from Mar-a-Lago.
It's going to be a crazy day.
If you're a member of Rumble Premium, we are going long and we'll be doing some inside reporting from this beautiful, beautiful Mar-a-Lago.
Do you remember when the FBI invaded and took their boxes?
They came to my Mar-a-Lago home.
Beautiful Mar-a-Lago home.
It's really funny.
We're actually here.
It's really mad.
It's really, really weird and interesting.

I'm saying hello to all of you watching me on Locals right now, all of you in the Rumble Premium chat.
We are live from Mar-a-Lago this very evening.
I'll be appearing at an event with Mike Tyson.
I mean, Donald Trump is actually here.
I mean, that's extraordinary, isn't it?
It's such a weird life.
All right.
Okay, let's get into it.
Now, we're going to be with you wherever you're watching us.
If you're watching us on AX, YouTube, whatever, we're going to be with you for a little while longer.
Then on Rumble Premium, we've got some brilliant stories to bring you about new revelations about vaccines, potential links between vaccines and cancer.
Who would have imagined that?
Everyone, ages ago, we talked about it publicly.
I don't want to sound like David Icke or someone, but I told you that.
I told you that.
I told you that ages ago, but I only told you that because of the brilliant reporting of people like Asim Malhotra.
Shout out to Asim Malhotra.
We'll talk about that story a little bit later.
But first, the US and Donald Trump want peace between Ukraine and Russia, as well as a piece of the action.
But what do the UK want under the audacious leadership of the new Churchill, Keir Starmer?
War.
War.
We will fight them.
We will fight them.
I say we will fight them.
You will fight them.
I'm going to be in the gym working on these guys, the Widowmakers.
Say hello to my little friends.
We're going to be looking at Keir Starmer's fighting style and his claim that your sons and daughters, your loved ones, the bravest and best of you, should give their lives what he believes in.
Do you trust him that much?
I don't.
Let me know in the comments and chat.
Rishi Sunak, former Prime Minister of the UK, he was the dude that was, you know, he's Prime Minister, I don't know, five Prime Ministers and six months ago.
Good to see Britain leading on this one.
We must ensure that any peace in Ukraine is permanent, not just a pause in the Russian assault.
As I said in Parliament last week, I told you, I told you, the government will have my support.
Just like they all supported each other during the pandemic.
Wasn't it curious?
Keir Starmer backed Boris Johnson then.
Because, of course, it was a global and globalist event.
And when I say globalist, what I mean is centralised, unelected forces subverting the will of the people.
No wonder we're seeing emergent nationalist populism opposing that, because if you're going to have a country, you're going to have a country.
People don't want globalist control.
Wouldn't it be lovely to have a planet where we all agree that ultimately we have a shared interest, that all of us have one God that loves us, that cares for us?
That would be lovely.
Let's try and head in that direction.
In the meanwhile, let's not yield to deceptive bureaucratic interest that might as well be Satan.
Britain braces for a $12 billion tax.
To fund defence spending.
£12 billion is going to cost you, people of the UK. Are you all happy that your taxes go towards that?
Are you happy that your taxes go towards funding the BBC? That's the licence fee that lied to you.
That your taxes go towards funding an unwinnable war and now it's going to cost the lives of brave and brilliant British people who...
Value, duty, and sacrifice to the point that if you thought about it, it would make you cry, man.
It would make you cry.
Tony Benn, the great left-wing British politician, said if there's enough money to kill people, there's enough money to save people.
Like you in your country, where do you want to see your tax dollars going?
To support people that are aggrieved and bereft because of disasters, hurricanes, fires?
Pick your disaster.
Or do you want to continue to fund unwinnable corporate misadventure around the world?
Let me know in the comments and chat.
The people of the UK are the same.
You've got to assume the people of Russia are the same.
The people of Ukraine are the same.
None of us want these wars.
Wars should be an absolute last resort, probably against physical external aggressors that are actually invading.
And you might say, well, that describes Putin exactly.
But that means you've not heard of Jeffrey Sachs or Professor Mearsheimer, and you've not heard about NATO's expansionism, and you've not heard about the globalist attempts to occupy Ukraine via NATO.
Let me know what you think about that in the comments and chat.
That's certainly how I see it.
So here's Keir Starmer.
If you were to follow someone in a war...
You want to know that they can punch their weight, right?
That's what people used to say about, I don't know, Ulysses Grant, one of your great civil war leaders, or George Washington, one of the founding fathers of your great nation.
It's them guys, they got stuck in there.
Or Patton, or Monty, or Churchill.
War-like leaders.
Let's have a look if Keir Starmer has got the stones to back up his lyrics.
Try and breathe.
He actually doesn't understand the concept of punching.
The concept of it is the sudden unleashing of energy through the fist and arm.
You wouldn't even get to the point where you're saying rotate through the hip or push off the back leg or rotate the knuckles.
You'd have to say, what you're doing, that isn't...
Call punching.
And that's why I, Mike Tyson, am here at Mar-a-Lago tonight winning an award.
Maybe we're going to get Iron Mike on the show a little later.
It would be great to have a chat with Mike Tyson on Rumble Premium.
Oh, people are taking photographs.
I feel Trump's moving.
Trump's around.
We're live at Mar-a-Lago.
Something's going on here.
The energy's crazy.
But, oh no, look at this.
Keir Starmer.
Here he is giving a speech about how he wants your money and your beloved family members to die.
For his combinations, for his rabbit punch combos.
Good evening.
I want to thank President Macron for convening us this evening.
At stake is not just the future of Ukraine, it is an existential question for Europe as a whole.
It is an existential question, and this is that question.
Do you believe that European forces should...
Back Ukraine now that the US are saying that they are going to renegotiate the nature of their support for Ukraine.
Are you willing for European nations and the US to part ways?
Is that what you want?
Because what is this West that we're claiming to support now?
If you're saying that...
France and the UK and presumably some other European powers, even though Britain voted to leave the EU precisely because they didn't want their sovereignty subverted in the ways that it has been while members of the EU in a variety, myriad ways.
Of course, people that are higher up the class ladder are like, but I can't go to France as easily!
I can't get back yet with the same level of comfort!
But ordinary people are starting to question what the EU is all about.
Let me know in the comments and chat, do you think this is a good thing?
Are you in the UK? Do you want to pay taxes for this?
Do you want their hand in your pocket taking your money?
Do you like Macron?
Is that what you like?
Do you feel that there's a way that European forces back in the UK could overcome Russia?
Do you think that?
And do you want to back that up?
Let me know in the comments of the chat because Keir Starmer believes that's the way to go.
I don't know, man.
I've got a few doubts when I look at that guy.
I've got a lot of questions.
I've got questions.
Have you got questions?
Do you think with Trump saying we're going to negotiate a peace deal where we're going to continue our support in exchange for minerals, the discourse is changing.
They're meeting in Saudi Arabia now.
Russian diplomats and US diplomats.
The Europeans are saying, well, we're not doing that.
You won't tell us.
Get David Tennant out to say that he's got a funny haircut.
Is that all you got?
Is that all you got?
Man, you're in some serious trouble.
If you want to start separating from US, even if they are US imperialist interests in this matter, pick a side, baby.
For Europe as a whole.
And therefore vital for Britain's national interest.
This is a once-in-a-generation moment for the collective security of our continent.
Only a lasting peace in Ukraine that safeguards its sovereignty will deter Putin from further aggression in the future.
Basing that on.
What's that based on?
What's that based on?
Did you see when Tucker Carlson interviewed Putin, did you get the idea that he is going to go on a colonial rampage, that he has some sort of supreme vision of Mother Russia that's going to expand?
When has Russia ever actually done that?
Under the Soviet Union...
Of course, there was a sort of a spread in many, you know, what we regard as the Eastern Bloc, but the US imperialist and UK imperialist forces participated in that, in the carving up of the nation after the defeat of the Nazis, where the Russians and the Americans and the British fought together to liberate Europe, to end the horrors of the Holocaust.
Now, I reckon there are deeper, ulterior narratives to investigate there, because I'm, you know, not a naive person anymore.
I've had the shit kicked out of me by life enough times now to not trust them on anything.
And I don't trust them on this.
Do you seriously believe that this is a once-in-a-generation moment where the UK and France have to part ways from the United States of America to support Ukraine in a war against Russia?
Where is he?
I hope at some point in this speech, in a minute, and we've got a plan.
We've got a plan in the event that Putin uses nuclear weapons, particularly now that Putin and Trump are directly involved, it seems, in their own discourse and might come up with some deal.
And they might go, yeah, do we want Britain?
Them guys are rude.
Now, recent statements by the US administration should not come as a surprise.
Makes me mad.
It makes me mad enough to box.
I should put on my gloves and I will fisticuff those Americans.
Well, I won't.
We'll get brave, brilliant, young British lives squandered.
But I'll tell you now, mate.
I'll tell you.
I had an AIDS test for a moment like this.
I didn't put a...
I didn't put a Q-tip down my P.O. for nothing.
I didn't get my...
I'm taking my jacket.
I'm rolling my sleeves up.
I'm pulling my skin back.
I'll tell...
I don't care how many British kids die!
This guy!
President Trump has long expressed the wish for Europe to step up and meet the demands of its own security.
That he wants to get a lasting peace agreement to end the war in Ukraine.
So today's informal meeting of European leaders was a vital first step in responding to that challenge.
On defence, it's clear the US is not going to leave NATO. But we Europeans will have to do more.
The issue of burden sharing is not new, but it is now pressing.
And Europeans will have to step up, both in terms of spending and the capabilities that we provide.
My God!
Spending and capabilities.
That's euphemism for our armed forces that you're funding.
Your money.
As Tony Benn said, if there's money to kill people, there's money to save people.
Are you in the UK right now?
Is it going well over there?
Are you having a good time?
It's going well, is it?
Do you want to spend some money on a war?
Your money.
Like when you go to work, you spend your life.
Your waking life, your sweat, your toil, your blood.
You want to fund a war that that guy thinks is a good idea.
That guy.
And also Rishi Sunak, the guy before him.
Oh, and also Boris Johnson, the guy before him.
Almost as if there's some sort of agenda that's able to traverse the political vicissitudes, isn't it?
Like, oh, I voted for Boris Johnson.
I get to spend my taxes on a war between Ukraine and Russia.
So I voted for Keir Starmer, and I get to spend my taxes, more taxes actually, on a war between Ukraine and Russia.
Thank God for freedom, Lord!
Thank God for the freedom of these Decepticons, to use the term from Transformers, that we provide.
On Ukraine, we're at the very early stage of the process.
Europe must play its role.
And I'm prepared to consider committing British forces on the ground alongside others.
This is ridiculous!
Outrageous!
Appalling!
If you're watching me on X right now, let me know on X. Are you English?
Are you paying taxes?
Are you paying attention?
Are you paying attention?
That's Keir Starmer, who you don't like anyway.
That's Keir Starmer, Southport, the murder of them little girls.
That's Keir Starmer, immigration.
That's Keir Starmer, council tax.
That's Keir Starmer.
I had to have some vocal lessons during the pandemic when you lot were missing births and funerals and potentially taking medication that might be linked to a rising cancer.
Now he wants, he's got some big idea that we're going to depart from the United States of America and start backing Macron!
Macron?
In a war against Putin?
Are you serious?
Are you serious?
Let me know in the comments and chat while you think about that.
You're going to back that guy?
Let's have a look at him in the gym again.
Let's have a look at him in the gym.
This is who's talking to you.
This is who wants your sons and daughters to die.
This is who's the man that's got his hand in your pocket.
Just try and whack it.
Yes, this is good.
And again.
That's it.
And again.
Try and breathe.
Relax.
That's it.
Absolutely.
I feel it.
Notice they're wearing masks because that was during the pandemic.
Do you know that those masks were basically bullshit?
You know that now, right?
You know that the six feet were bullshit?
You know the drugs were not clinically trialed against transmission?
You know that, right?
You know that they're not yet thoroughly investigating any potential causal links between those vaccines and cancer?
You know that they've had to admit that myocarditis was caused, whether it was the Johnson& Johnson that had to be removed, the BioNTech, Pfizer jab.
Man, we've been lied to.
We've been tricked.
Don't let them lead you into war.
Don't let them charge you for their leadership.
How dare they?
These people are meant to be our servants, your servants.
You sometimes will yield to leadership when you sense the aura of greatness or at least robustness or at least some kind of raw power.
But these people, come on.
You can't follow them into a war.
Let me know what you think about that in the comments and chat.
What's going to happen when I try to go back to the clip I was in previous to that, Isaac, because I've...
So should I just press play?
It's going to do the boxing again.
Click the number that I was on.
Excuse me for a sec, dude.
Alongside others, if there is a lasting peace agreement.
But there must be a US backstop.
Because a US security guarantee is the only way to effectively deter Russia.
Backstop?
Don't use a cricket metaphor on the brink of a global war.
A cricket metaphor.
We need a backstop.
I'll tell you what we're going to need against Putin and his nuclear arsenal.
A wicketkeeper.
From attacking Ukraine again.
So I will go to Washington next week to meet President Trump and to discuss what we see as the key elements of a lasting peace.
I spoke to President Zelensky on Friday and will do so again in coming days.
You're right.
People in England are actually sick and tired of the way their country is being run.
People in Scotland, people in Wales, people in the North Park Island, they're sick and tired of how that dude's running.
Their country.
There's got to be some radical changes of focus.
Never mind going around meeting Donald Trump and going to meet Zelensky.
You focus on what's going on in the UK. People are deeply concerned about immigration.
People are deeply concerned about rising crime.
People are deeply concerned about their taxes.
Agriculture is exploding into near perpetual protest in the streets of London because they're being charged a tax that's going to ruin their lives and their business model.
You stay away from Washington, mate.
Get yourself down.
London.
Get yourself down, London.
Do your job.
Do your job.
There's a word of advice.
Live from Mar-a-Lago, baby.
But that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
What we're essentially discussing is a fissure between US interests and European interests, which in...
A fact has revealed the trajectory of what we might call corporate globalism and its militaristic agenda because they can no longer depend upon US support in the same way they could under Biden.
So now there's manoeuvring going on and we're starting to see the true shape, the silhouette of global corruption exposed, the shadow on the wall as well as the writing on the wall.
You let me know who you back.
in the comments and chat if it comes to a war between Macron, Keir Starmer and Vladimir Putin's almighty Russia.
Or let me know if you might consider negotiating some sort of peace deal that allows dignity and sovereignty in some way for Ukrainian people and somehow helps that country to get back on its feet after this needless, senseless war that NATO certainly Maybe listen to that dude when he says there's a red line.
I don't know.
But that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.

We've got so much more to bring you.
So click the link in the description, baby, and we'll tell you all about that.
And if you're not a member of We can't remember when this happened, but I had a situation in which I was in my garden and I just thought, I've been looking for years and years for what the truth is.
I know there's something going on.
I think there's someone bigger than me, but I don't know what the hell it is.
And I remember I got down on my knees in the garden just out here.
And I said, OK, God, if you exist, show me who you are and show me what to do.
And that was my prayer.
And I didn't even know how to pray and that was it.
And I think I was still a witch at the time.
And then very soon after that, I had a dream of Jesus in which he said something quite particular.
And I saw exactly what he looked like and he was doing a particular thing.
I wrote down what he said and I drew it.
And I kept having these dreams.
And then suddenly I was meeting Christians everywhere.
People were talking to me about Christianity and I felt like I was being hunted.
I literally felt like I was being hounded by Christ.
I don't know if you've ever come across that poem, The Hound of Heaven.
Have you seen that?
It's a Victorian poem that I'd never heard of at this point.
Somebody showed it to me later, but it's precisely about this.
And I felt like I was being hunted by Christ.
And the long and the short of it is that he dragged me out of wicker by the scruff of the neck.
literally i felt very physically removed from that place like i couldn't continue it anymore we're in mar-a-lago We're on Rumble now.
Thanks for staying with us.
We're going to do some more stuff, then we'll go over exclusively to Rumble Premium.
I do need a wee quite badly.
I've drunk quite a lot of water and coffee, and we're just trying to find if there's something I can put on for you.
But listen, we've got some good stories.
We've not done the Peace Deal story yet, but we are on Rumble now, and this is what we pledged you, this is what we titled around, and this is what we're going to give you.
Isn't it?
Yeah, this is not the...
Yeah, this is a good one.
Okay.
What do we want?
World peace.
When do we want it after Keir Starmer's caused the global holy war?
Who's the person that's trying to negotiate world peace right now?
Could it be the dreaded and the god-awful?
Donald Trump, whose Mar-a-Lago home I sit in right now, apparently it is.
Under the radar is the extraordinary notion that China, Russia and the United States should cut their military spending by 50%.
Hey, maybe the Pentagon could pass an audit under those conditions.
I'm not attacking the American military.
I support the troops.
I love American service people.
I love veterans and, in fact, soldiers and people that are willing to give their lives from across the world.
Could there be any nobler cause than to lay down your life for those that you love or the land that you love?
Difficult to think of one.
but now we're in this extraordinary position where europe appear to be part in ways or at least posturing that they would consider doing that in the unlikely form of shadow boxer kia star while trump has made the audacious suggestion that china russia and the u.s should cut their military budgets by 50 now that's obviously going to be good for everybody isn't it let me know you think about that in the comments and chat let's have a look at donald trump saying this just you know i'm not making this shit
one of the first meetings i want to have is with president chi of china president putin of russia and i want to say let's cut our military budget in half And we can do that.
And I think we'll be able to do it.
This is no bullshit politics, I would call it.
What we've been dealing with up to now is bullshit politics.
Remember, we don't know how this nationalist populism is going to play out across the world, but we have to acknowledge that Trump 2025 is not Trump 2016. Now, if you're not a Rumble Premium subscriber yet, become one, and you will get additional content from me as well as Glenn Greenwald, who had this to say.
Those who failed or refused to see the massive opportunities from this Trump-led realignment and instead enslaved themselves to the broken, ossified, unimaginative, status quo perpetuating Democratic Party are some of the dumbest people on the planet.
Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about Greenwald's claim there.
Trump proposes trilateral.
Can I go back to that?
Trump proposes trilateral agreement with China and Russia to mutually draw down military budget by 50%.
What a sensible bit of statescraft you'd have to call that, wouldn't you?
I don't know, man.
Let me know.
I mean, I'm probably more inclined to be positive towards Donald Trump because I'm literally sat in Mar-a-Lago right now.
But, like...
If it was Barack Obama, try and imagine this, if Barack Obama came in and said, we're only going to support this ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia if there's skin in the game for America and some upside, you can't win a war against Russia.
Also, we're going to cut military spending by 50%.
Wouldn't you be going like Barack Obama?
He's a new Jesus.
Wouldn't he?
You'd be excited about it.
So you've got to get your head together, I think.
These are sort of, I think, innovative pieces of statecraft.
Let me know what you think about that in the chat.
Here's the Polish foreign minister mocking President Trump's plan for peace and saying that he won't get a Nobel Peace Prize.
Oh, no!
Not a Nobel Peace Prize!
Do you remember why they started that Nobel Peace Prize?
Do you remember it?
They were armaments, people.
They were involved in all sorts of crazy bullshit.
Isaac, I bet you can pull that up, man.
Have a look on your phone what the Nobel Peace Prize was actually about and why it was started.
Even the Nobel Peace Prize has got moody beginnings.
Let's have a look at the Polish foreign minister mocking Trump's peace plan for Ukraine.
What would you say to Donald Trump, Minister Sikorski?
We have more chairs.
We have more chairs.
I would tell him three things.
I think it's time to stop the smugness.
Whether it's at the BAFTAs or at these crazy Munich Peace Accord things, whatever they're calling them.
It's dumb.
Stop it.
Stop being so smug.
The guy's just been mandated into a...
Position of significant and incredible power and is doing what he was elected to do other than things like that AI, MRNA stuff that I saw that geezer at, Larry, what's his name, out of Oracle talking about.
You saw that?
I don't mean...
Stay free, Oracles, which the Stay Free team will be bringing you on Thursday, where me, Lara Logan and Neil Oliver live from Mar-a-Lago.
Wow, I can't believe I just did that.
We'll be talking about the weeks of it.
I've messed up the word week because I was celebrating about saying Lara Logan and Neil Oliver live at Mar-a-Lago.
I can do that.
You can do it, Russell.
You're a good kid.
I stick up for you in the staff room with the other teachers.
I'm sorry, sir.
I'm sorry.
You're such a bright lad.
Why do you keep getting in trouble?
I don't know.
Number one.
Joe Biden was your successor and predecessor, but he planted the flag of the United States in downtown Kyiv and declared on behalf of the United States that the US will be with Ukraine for as long as it takes until Ukraine secures its independence.
Therefore...
The credibility of the United States depends on how this war ends.
Not just the Trump administration, the United States itself.
I would secondly tell him that if you allow Putin to vassalize Ukraine, that'll send a message to China that you can recover what you regard as...
Fear, fear, escalate fear, globalist agenda.
People aren't interested anymore.
You can't do it.
Like, how are you gonna aggregate into your understanding this proposal that those three superpowers cut their military budgets by 50%?
I don't know how we will accommodate that.
What you regard as a renegade province.
And that would have...
They're all trying to vassalize Ukraine.
Everyone's trying to do that.
Russia, NATO, the United States of America.
That's sort of, it seems, how power works.
Sometimes I feel like they're...
First people that get colonised, tyrannised and subjugated are domestic populations.
Say like, so that you don't feel like I'm talking about your brilliant country, my one, the UK. Firstly, they dominate a surf class, the proletariat, bring them down, get them under control.
Then they go on colonial adventures, start taking on the people of India or various nations in Africa or the Caribbean.
That's how it kind of rolls out with centralised power, whether it's under the guise of socialism or corporatism.
Imperialism.
That's how it operates.
So don't be surprised that Ukraine, as a mineral-rich and strategically significant region, is being exploited from all sides.
What everyone should care about is the people that bloody well live there.
The people that live there, first and foremost, and then why are we all getting dragged into a potential nuclear war?
Let me know in the comments and chat if you agree with that.
It seems pretty obvious.
Apple would have direct...
Consequences for U.S. grand strategy, for the U.S. system of alliances, and possibly for the future of Taiwan.
And I would thirdly tell him that we Europeans control the Nobel Peace Prize.
I meant to be a joke.
Should someone phone David Tennant?
Because that was like, it meant to be a joke.
We control the Nobel Peace Prize.
Trump will just start his own one, won't he?
His own peace prize.
Mar-a-lago.
Trophy of peace.
Beautiful trolling.
For them, that's a good joke, I suppose.
For them, isn't it?
But that's how you have to set the standards.
If you want to earn it, the peace has to be fair.
Very clear.
In a way, I don't see that as a kind of jucundity and lightning of the mood.
I see that as the revelation of their true appraisal and connection to the situation, that people in positions of diplomacy aren't actually...
Rooted and connected in the real nature of the conflict and what's being asked by ordinary people.
And I wouldn't blame the individuals there on that panel.
I think that's what happens when power becomes dislocated from the people impacted by it.
That Tony Benn quote, man, that's so good, ain't it?
Like, if there's enough money to kill people, there's enough money to save people.
Will you post it, Lukey on X, if you ain't already?
I bet he has already.
We're in pretty good sync.
But for me, this kind of bureaucratic, anodyne, sterile posturing when...
Lives are at stake.
It's pretty sickening.
Here's Cigar and Jetty on it.
Poland says they won't send peacekeeping troops to Ukraine.
They've been one of the most agitating forces for aggressive NATO support for Ukraine.
But when push comes to shove, they really don't believe it's such a vital national security interest.
Of course, Poland's got a pretty interesting relationship with Russia historically.
Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk, which must be annoying.
We've got a leader of a country coming.
Yeah.
His name's Donald.
Yeah.
Surname begins with T. Yeah.
All the way from Poland.
Now, fuck off.
But would maintain the humanitarian logistics and military aid that has been provided to Kiev for the past three years.
So, there you go.
The hated and loathed monolith of machismo, Donald Trump, appears to be advancing peace talks much more than his allies and potential and supposed allies and acolytes in Europe, the Polish ambassador, or Kiev Starmer, who seem dead set.
And I use the word dead deliberately.
On war.
So, even if you find Trump vulgar, unappealing, even appalling, you have to recognise that the art of the deal when it comes to reducing military budgets between China, Russia and the United States seems like a deal that would facilitate further peace.
And as we stand on the precipice of a new world that could turn into some sort of ethno-nationalist nightmare, but hey, that's only because we were offered a globalist, imperialist, bureaucratic Kafkaesque I'm told that it was to help people.
We surely should be, above all else, ensuring peace.
Peace between the world's most powerful nations and hopefully between all of the world's peoples.
And maybe, just maybe, that art of the deal brokering loathed despot.
Could be the person to bring it out.
But that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
If you're watching us on Rumble, we're going to stay with you for a little while and then we'll be exclusively on Rumble Premium.
Let's have a look at this little message.
This is one of the things from Rumble Premium.
I thought I played 32 last time, but did I play 31 last time?
No one's going to know that but me, right?
Because of the way we set this stuff up.
Let me have a look at this.
This is Break Bread with Russell Brand.
Yes, I play 31 this time.
This is break bread with Russell Brown.
We're not doing it this week because we're in Mar-a-Lago, but there's going to be all sorts of crazy stuff from Mar-a-Lago.
I mean, once this finishes, we're just loose in Mar-a-Lago.
I mean, I just don't know what's going to happen, Isaac.
We're going to be filming stuff.
Trump's loose on the car.
I'm going to go on the golf course.
I'm going to protect you.
You did get assaulted last time, but you deserve that.
You did come to Mar-a-Lago.
And let's face it, you're not Christian.
You know, people do have to step in.
Isaac.
Read the Old Testament, baby.
Now, what I would say is this.
Let's have a look at Paul Kingsnorth now from our break bread conversations.
I don't really like authority like you.
I don't like institutions.
I kick against that.
I don't see why people should tell me what to do and why can't I just read the Bible and read it and work it out myself.
So I did that for a while.
And in the end, it wasn't enough because firstly, I wanted a community around me.
But also, I realized I was just doing what I'd done before and trying to do it myself.
I was trying to make up my own Christianity and say, oh, well, I'm a Christian now, so I can read the Bible and decide what it all is.
And that's the reason there are 10,000 Protestant churches in America alone, for example, because people are inventing their own version of the Bible.
And the problem is, if you don't have an authority, if you don't have a container, if you don't have the church to say to you, well, this is what this means, and this is what our understanding of this is, then you don't have anything.
And then I thought to myself after a while, I thought, you know, it's really arrogant of me to imagine that I can do this on my own.
Because what you've got with the church is a 2,000-year institution full of saints and martyrs and theologians and people who've had mystical visions and people who have studied scripture for a long time.
And who am I to say, well, I don't need to listen to you.
I reckon I can do it myself.
And I don't think I can.
And I didn't want to.
Hill Kingsnorth is a brilliant intellectual.
You'll love that whole episode, but if you become a member of Rumble Premium, you don't get only that conversation, but the conversation with Tucker Carlson and Wes Huff, you get intelligent conversations on Christianity, and that's what we need.
That's what I need as a Christian.
I used to think that I was too clever for Christianity.
Now I realise I'm just too dumb, full-stop man.
Anyway, I'm quite clever sometimes, aren't I? I remember different words and everything.
Thanks to my friend Rich for what some people call a lollipop, and other people...
Call Sucker.
