Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
What a fantastic day it is to glory in his holy light.
What a glorious time it is to ask great questions of ourselves, to move into deeper authenticity and connection with him, ourselves and one another, that we may finally bring about the kind of changes that the culture and even politics, particularly at its apparent polls, doesn't seem to be able to deliver.
Where is the utopia you were promised?
Where is your revolution?
Where is your peace?
Let us investigate together the most important news, Tariffs! I'll tariff you so hard.
If you tariff me, I will tariff you so hard.
China and the United States of America are tariffing each other real hard now.
In my country, the UK, there is leverage being deployed to introduce digital ID using the cause of the day, immigration.
The Labour government, they're essentially a kind of centralist left-wing government.
One would sort of assume by the kind of, I don't know, the language of the day.
And had always been very melting pot, cultural diversity is our strength, and now saying to oppose the threat caused by migration, we have to introduce digital ID.
Let me know in the comments and chat if you can see something hypocritical all about that.
And if you've noticed the trend to always deploy whatever rhetoric is necessary to achieve the desired result, and the desired result is always control, control, control.
If you can see the way that they're trying to get control, then you can see what they're doing.
Really? We're going to be talking about all that and more.
If you're watching us on X, we'll be with you for a while.
If you're watching us on YouTube, we'll be with you for a while.
If you're watching us on Rumble, we will be with you forever, for at least an hour.
And I want to know what stories out of these ones, because once we've covered the main things, like, for example, the trade war, we're going to be covering that in depth.
Tariffs and digital IDs and that stuff.
Then Gaza, Israel, of course, we're going to be covering the deaths of those aid workers.
We're going to be talking about that.
Let me know whether you want to see us talk about Jay Bhattacharya and Anthony Fauci's claim that he doesn't know who censored Jay Bhattacharya.
Or do you want to see us talking a little about vaccines?
And are you happy that mRNA has been addressed correctly since Trump has come to office?
Or do you want to see us?
Let me know about this in the Rumble chat.
Thanks for the raid, by the way, Tim Kast and Crowder.
Let me know, guys, if you want.
Let me know if you want to see me talk about Sam Harris and the sort of Sam Harris, what you might call libertarian dark web gossip and stuff.
Also, we're going to be showing a brilliant clip of Callie Means confronting a bunch of people at Politico's healthcare summit.
Didi, we can talk about that as well.
And China's genetically modified children.
Can you imagine that?
All this and more coming up.
If you don't have Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium right now.
And now this means you get an ad-free experience on Rumble as well as additional content from me, Crowder, Glenn Greenwald, Kim Iverson and all of Rumble's top free speech content creators.
First of all though, let's get into what's going on in my country.
First of all, it's...
Digital ID in order to crack down on illegal immigration.
Now, like most places in Europe, there's a lot of concern about migration, but is digital ID the answer, or is this simply an opportunity to deploy policies that they've long craved?
Tony Blair.
The lapdog of George W. Bush in matters of war has long been campaigning for digital ID.
You know they want to have cryptocurrencies if they can control them, digital ID if they can control us, and medical interventions if they inhibit, prohibit, or otherwise impair our ability to think straight and act fast.
In short, they want you docile and bludgeoned.
That's why there's agricultural protests all over the UK right now, because they want control of the food.
Yes, they'll claim there's some ecological imperative.
Them farmers are using terrible fertilisers.
Those farmers are getting rich off the fat of the land.
But ultimately what they want, as always, is control.
I don't know what the peculiar reasons are for not wanting an inquiry into the rape gang culture.
That seems extraordinary.
I'm just talking about surely there are resources to investigate these rape gangs.
It seems like a significant story.
It seems like people are very, very concerned about it.
It seems like many victims are coming forward.
Where are the resources to deal with this important story?
Not to mention the numerous people, at a rate of 30 a day it seems, that are being arrested for social media posts.
Surely that should be getting addressed as well in the UK. Apparently not.
They seem to think that the priority is digital ID. Here's a little on that story about farmers.
Keir Starmer refuses to meet with farmers.
It may rhyme, but it's not necessarily a good thing.
Let's have some more evidence of Keir Starmer's deception.
I'm not seeing this yet.
Only Labour will secure our borders.
Put more cash in your pocket.
Make your streets safer.
Make sure your children have better opportunities.
Because that's the change that Labour makes.
Whoa! Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.
Let me know if you think Britain has improved under Keir Starmer and Labour.
Or do you think that Britain will be better off being run by some new party?
I don't know.
Like, check this out.
Not everyone likes Nigel Farage.
A lot of people loathe him.
But you've got to say that Nigel Farage...
He's serious about what he believes in.
He's been consistent in his beliefs.
Some people might say, oh, he's owned by the city.
Some people still might say he's racist, although I don't feel like his position was ever racist.
He was always a kind of Britain-first nativist politician.
And we're seeing now, increasingly, and even Keir Starmer himself admits that globalism is dead, that national nativism is in a sense essential and necessary if you're going to have a nation at all.
Imagine a new political movement that could accommodate...
Always a staunch left-wing union man.
Pro-Muslim, very outspoken, and then someone like Jeremy Corbyn, who when he was leader of the Labour Party, garnered and gleaned a great deal of left-wing appeal.
Imagine if they were willing to align to create a new and true anti-establishment party with former politicians from the right, like Andrew Bridgen, or some of the people that are getting a lot of traction with their opposition and demand that rape gangs get looked into.
The days of left and right are over.
This is a time for us to embrace anti-authoritarianism and recognise and acknowledge, and this is something we'll be talking about across today's show, the limitations of politics and politicians generally.
We must look to ourselves and certainly elsewhere when it comes to spiritual leadership and spiritual resolution.
Politicians are merely public servants that we elect in order to carry out managerial and logistical matters for strong ideals, For matters of truth and glory, surely we all look elsewhere.
Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.
And if you were watching us in the UK, would you be interested in a movement that was for ordinary working Britons, that stood up for the rights of the farmer, that opposed the increasing power of the state, and in particular, if it was drawn from a new...
No, I don't want to say cartel, because you think drug cartel.
I don't want to say cadre, because you think corrupt.
But I want to say a new alliance.
I guess kind of what you think of when you consider that Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy have all come together under Donald Trump.
Imagine if in the UK, I'm obviously speaking particularly to those of you that are in the UK.
Keir Starmer were deposed by Jeremy Corbyn, George Galloway, Nigel Farage, a new political movement.
Is that even possible?
Let me know what you think about that in the comments and the chat.
Meanwhile, in the United States of America, many people have got a lot of questions when it comes to the $1 trillion that have been granted to the Pentagon because I...
I feel that many of you like Doge because it's about a reduction in government spending.
And I know that patriotic Americans are all about supporting troops, current service personnel, and looking after treasured and cherished veterans, ensuring that they have good homes and good lives after their loyal and brave service to their country.
The problem has always been, when it comes to these vast military industrial complex budgets, is precisely that they end up in the wrong hands.
They end up in the pockets and coffers of your Lockheed Martins and your Raytheans et al.
Instead of supporting the troops.
Also, surely many of us hope that we would see an end to the forever wars.
We'll be talking about all of that.
We've got so much to talk about today.
First, though, here's a bit of out-of-this-stick throwback nostalgia from my friend Tucker Carlson.
Talking about, and I'd love to know what you feel about this, he's...
Now, I'm old enough to remember when TVs were kind of turned over by an actual audio clicker, like you could change a TV channel by kind of making a noise.
I feel like I'm dreaming this.
If you wanted pornography, you had to go seek it out in hedges and under your dad's bed before the immersive total...
Pixelated pornographic deluge that floods the minds of young people and old people, sadly, today.
So, let me know what you think about Tucker's call for a return for earlier times.
Senseless nostalgia?
Or have we become overly reliant on a technology that's ultimately used, as in the case of the digital ID schemes of Keir Starmer, to control us?
Let's have a look at Tucker Carlson.
Proselytizing around his 87 Chevy, baby.
This is the truck that I drove this morning.
This is the truck I drive.
It's a 1987 Chevrolet Silverado.
Conventional cab.
Five forward speeds.
Some kind of aftermarket seats.
The seatbelt a dog has chewed.
And it works pretty well.
It's got a bed.
Looks like a pickup truck.
There are no electronics in this.
There's no air conditioning, there's no radio, and there's no way for the government to turn off my engine if I'm disobedient.
So that's what I drive.
I like it.
Interesting point.
You don't want a car that they're...
When I was borrowing that Tesla...
Like, I mean, I'm not pro, necessarily, the Tesla protest, but yeah, in Spherical, in the Rumble chat, says, I think Tucker's taking a jab at Cybertruck.
When I was in that Cybertruck, it said it could do all autopilot.
I asked it to do all autopilot, and I thought, well, this is good.
It is doing all autopilot.
It's turning corners and stuff.
So I thought, yeah, relax, enjoy life, take a look around, enjoy the view, chat to your kids.
It starts going...
Exterminate! Look at the road!
Hold on to the steering wheel!
It's like telling you what to do and stuff.
And eventually it gave me free strikes.
It started being judge, jury and executioner over me.
So let me know in the comments and chat.
Bongino Army, Mug Club, Timcast folks.
Let me know what you think about that.
Do you think that we should return to technology that's primarily in the service of the person that's...
Paying for it, rather than...
You know, when I was in that Cybertruck, I thought someone's going to press a button and it's just going to drive me and drop me off at a police station if I say the wrong thing or believe the wrong things or bow down to a holy father or say that the living water's available to all of us.
We must awaken now.
You will learn what gods you worship when those idols fall.
If you worship the culture, you will find out about it.
If you worship sex, you will find out about it.
If you worship drugs or money or reputation or wanting to be young, I'm going to get myself a nice Ram Longhorn without any electronic capabilities at all.
I'm going to...
Oh, I shall repair it myself in a silk shirt.
I'll be under that hood, baby, in a maha cap, fixing it up.
Hey, your man Trump had the LA Dodgers in the White House recently.
We're going to be talking.
Over the course of the show about the death of aid workers in Gaza, we're going to be talking about tariffs, we're going to be talking about trade wars, but before we get into that, let's have a little bit of fun!
Let's have a little bit of fun, shall we?
All my friends in the locals chat, like Jim Earthsea and Sean M. Smith, all of you lot, like Lady1789 in the Rumble chat and Coast86 and Wall0822, let's go back to the V8, says Lin8, before we get into the more hefty, weighty, controversial, difficult subjects of today.
Let's just watch Trump doing what Trump seems to do rather well, be inadvertently amusing.
Congratulations, Brian.
And others, we have a couple of senators here I just don't particularly like.
I won't introduce.
Over the course of this amazing season, the members of this team...
*laughter*
I didn't think it was that big a deal, actually.
Oh man, he's funny.
He's not even trying to be funny.
He's not trying to be funny.
He's being himself.
He's being authentic.
And it is funny.
Probably like you, I've got concerns about what's happening with the United States of America.
Not so much with the tariffs, actually, because I can see how that's putting American people and American jobs first and is a threat to globalism and global trade.
I kind of like that.
And to see the sort of spasms of rage and outrage from sort of establishment.
Liberals makes me think, well, hold on a minute.
Were things so great under Biden?
What was going on?
Was it great during the pandemic?
And also the idea that sort of NASDAQ and all that stuff is in the service of ordinary people is ridiculous.
That's the sort of playthings of the powerful.
If you can get involved in that stuff and you can afford it and you can handle it and you're well advised, you probably should because in this brutal, mercurial and mercantile world, you know you've got to be able to play the game when it comes to the dollars and the cryptocurrencies.
But the fact that it's sort of held up and held aloft as a kind of like, look at what he's done to the NASDAQ!
What do you people believe in anyway?
Nevertheless, I suppose those of you that are enthusiastic MAGA or MAHA supporters, let me know if you feel that since Trump's come into office, he's delivered on matters of geopolitics and war and conflict.
Were you hoping for that 24 hours after I'm in office, I'll have Putin in one hand, Zelensky in the other, knock their heads together like a schoolyard spat and solve it?
Are you looking for that?
Were you hoping that you would see, with the HHS and my beloved friend Bobby Kennedy, proper inquiry?
We got so much to talk about today.
And we care about what you say on Rumble, what you care about on X, even what you care about on YouTube, even though it's a highly monitored and curated space.
But we want to get you to join us over here on Rumble.
Where we can have this conversation absolutely freely.
Hey there, sensitive hearts.
Hey there, Gene Bondano.
All of you guys from the Mug Club and Bongino's Army, you are welcome here.
Thanks for joining us in this conversation.
We're going to be talking about some pretty interesting and difficult topics.
But why don't we, before we get into the trade war and American re-industrialization and...
If he gives you a 34% tariff, you give them a 50% tariff.
If he sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the mall.
This is a Sean Connery impression.
It's not good.
I'm aware that it's not going well.
What I'm saying is that we're in some kind of gangster spat, like the Untouchables, but a tariff version.
In fact, I find it hard to get it up for tariffs, don't you?
In general.
But we're going to examine it and look at it properly after this quick message.
Oh no!
Taxes! Who wants to pay that?
Money you've worked hard to earn going straight to the government?
Who are they going to bomb this week?
We don't know yet.
Could be Iran, could be someone.
Anyway, you want to pay the minimum amount possible without breaking the law, right?
Right? Of course you do.
That's why you need Tax Network USA.
This is the time to act.
If you've fallen behind on filing or owe back taxes, delay will only make things worse, you know.
Every day you wait increases your risk and the consequences.
With over 5,000 new tax liens filed every day and powerful enforcement tools like property seizures, bank levies, wave garnishments at its disposal, the IRS is applying pressure at a level we haven't seen for years, driven by heightened administrative scrutiny.
Damn you, Doge!
Don't make the mistake of facing the IRS alone.
Tax Network USA is here to help you take control.
Whether your tax issue is $10,000, $10 million, $10 billion, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter if it's not 10 something.
You know, it's just any number.
Whatever it is, their team of skilled attorneys and seasoned negotiators have resolved over a billion dollars in tax debt using proven strategies.
They're not just making up strategies on the spot.
That isn't a strategy, actually.
A strategy means it's...
Pre-organised, isn't it?
It's not strategy, otherwise it's just impulse.
Your consultation is absolutely free.
Free! Get a free consultation.
What have you got to lose?
What, you don't want to talk to them?
You're worried about it?
You might get McGilliguddy.
McGilliguddy ain't working that day.
You get that consultation for free.
Don't wait for another letter or a surprise levy.
Put a stop to growing interest, penalties and threats.
Take back control of your finances.

Tax season's here.
Don't wait for April the 15th to make a move.
Beat the IRS to it.
Zeta Reticulus in the rumble chat.
No one wears a woman's blouse like Russell.
Thank you very much.
I'm very happy to be adorned lustily on this fine day.
Let's get into the tariff scenario, baby.
First of all, here's a Chinese meme about...
American re-industrialisation.
Trump hit them with a tariff, they hit Trump right back with another tariff.
Now Trump says he's going to come back with the mother of all tariffs.
And here's a Chinese meme about it.
The thing is with a Chinese meme is you have one, three minutes later, you need another Chinese meme.
That's a Chinese food joke for you there.
It might be a bit racist.
*music*
Certainly it seems that China's prejudicial view of Americans is that you're obese.
That's mostly what we can take from that, isn't it?
That they think Americans are obese.
That's certainly for sure.
No tariff on the sugary foods, baby.
So here's Trump's response to that.
He's saying that these tariff things ain't over.
Russell is wearing my grandma's kitchen drape, says Paul Schober.
This is actually quite expensive.
Nice shot!
As you know, against my statement, they put a 34% tariff on above what their ridiculous tariffs were already.
And I said if that tariff isn't removed by tomorrow at 12 o'clock, we're putting a 50% tariff on above the tariffs that we put on.
So they've gone for years.
They've become a rich country because of people, again, that were in the White House that allowed this to happen.
I like the tariff countdowns, don't you?
Like if it's by 12 o'clock, you better remove that tariff.
It's interesting, isn't it?
It's extraordinary.
What about this post from Not Even Wrong?
Careful with that hatchet, Eugene.
That's a quote from a film, isn't it?
What movie is that?
Let me know what movie that's from.
So the thing is with Donald Trump and tariffs is it's completely consistent with the kind of political rhetoric and economic vision that he's always had.
It's pretty...
Often that you'll see on X or other platforms like that, some clip of Trump turning up on Oprah or Trump in Home Alone or Trump in some kind of rap video, a Trump that preceded his political career where he was culturally revered and certainly not a board in the way that he subsequently became when he stood for office.
Over the course of this show, we're going to be talking about these early months of the Trump administration when it comes to war.
Do you think wars are being handled in the way that was offered during the campaign?
We're also going to be talking about Israel and Gaza and the subsequent report in and, I guess, aftermath of the death of 15 aid workers in Gaza.
So much to talk about.
But before we get into all of that, let's resolve this China trade war story.
I don't think we're actually going to resolve the issue, but we'll resolve at least this item on our show by showing Donald Trump on Oprah Winfrey way back in 1988.
Squeezed and pulled and hurt my neck.
What movie's that from?
And, um...
I want you to let me know if you feel that at least Donald Trump has been consistent with that matter.
If you're watching us on X, we'll be with you for about another 20 minutes.
We'll be with you for a little while, too, on YouTube.
But we want you to join us on Rumble and get Rumble Premium, if you can, to get additional content and an ad-free experience.
Here is Trump in AEA talking to Oprah about tariffs.
Last year, criticizing US foreign policy.
What would you do differently, Donald?
I'd make our allies, forgetting about the enemies, the enemies you can't talk to so easily, I'd make our allies pay their fair share.
We're a debtor nation.
Something's going to happen over the next number of years with this country because you can't keep going on losing $200 billion and yet we let Japan come in and dump everything right into our markets.
It's not free trade.
If you ever go to Japan right now and try to sell something, forget about it, Oprah.
Just forget about it.
It's almost impossible.
They don't have laws against it.
Of course, Pink Floyd.
Pink Floyd, thank you very much for that.
Emma Violet and Jake in there.
And all of you that answered that correctly.
And no, we don't need to resolve this shirt.
The shirt is staying, baby.
They just make it impossible.
They come over here, they sell their cars, their VCRs, they knock the hell out of our companies.
And hey, I have tremendous respect for the Japanese people.
I mean, you can respect somebody that's beating the hell out of you, but...
We're talking about Japan there, you racist.
Somebody that's beating the hell out of you, but they are beating the hell out of this country.
Kuwait, they live like kings.
The poorest person in Kuwait, they live like kings.
That's the Trump that we would come to know, isn't it?
The poorest person in Kuwait live like kings.
That's a sweeping generalization.
The poorest person in Kuwait, they live like kings.
And yet they're not paying.
We make it possible for them to sell their oil.
Why aren't they paying us 25% of what they're making?
It's a joke.
This sounds like political presidential talk to me.
And I know people have talked to you about whether or not you want to run.
Would you ever?
Probably not.
But I do get tired of seeing the country ripped off.
Why would you not?
I just don't think I really have the inclination to do it.
I love what I'm doing.
I really like it.
Also, it doesn't pay as well.
There we go.
We're all familiar with the rest of that clip.
And we are becoming familiar with a new type of geopolitical combat.
Combat via tariff.
Whether or not...
You agree with Trump's actions.
You can certainly say that he's been consistent in his rhetoric when it comes to tariffs.
And there's a strong argument to be made that he's...
...imposition of tariffs on foreign trading partners is in alignment with his general America First purview, that it is beneficial to American workers, that it could re-industrialize America.
Is there an argument to be made that we have more isolationism, that globalism, as even Keir Starmer admits, has failed, that whilst we want to acknowledge that we are all the children of God, one...
...part and active components of the body of Christ, that you want maximal democracy and sovereignty within nations and within communities, and that these tariffs are very much in line with the kind of policies, ideas and language of Trump's campaigning.
And indeed, it's primarily globalists and those that look to accrue and gather resources and power on a global level that are most...
Outraged by the imposition of these tariffs.
That's certainly what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
In a minute, we're going to be talking about the death of 15 aid workers in Gaza and the ongoing conversation about Israel's power and influence in American politics.
Before that, here's a quick word from one of our partners.
Free speech is under attack, but Rumble Premium refuses to back down.
I won't back down.
Like Thomas Petty, you know, he went back with...
Actually dead.
But we're actually better than Tom Petty.
We've always believed in empowering voices, no matter how unpopular, and now we're taking the fight to the next level.
When major advertisers conspired, yeah, conspired, to pull their dollary-dos, even brands like Dirty Dunkin' Donuts, which I think of as being a bit like the Dunkin' Donut of that Tesla guy that wiped his hand on his butt.
Remember him?
This guy?
Dunkin' Donuts is the donut equivalent of that.
There's free speech hate in pigs.
Claiming that Rumble had a right-wing culture.
How dare they?
I mean, look at just some of these comments.
Rumble does not have a right-wing culture.
We are doing our very best to include everyone.
That's from a Mr. A. Hitler.
Look at this one.
Rumble is my favourite site.
I love it.
I listen to it every night by firelight.
That's from a Mr. Ku Klux Klan.
Like, how can anyone have a problem with Rumble?
One of the great stations.
We're not here to fit them old.
We're here to defend free expression.
That is the milk of free speech coming out of the tit.
Or just a tit, really.
To strengthen this mission, we're excited to offer you Rumble Premium, a completely ad-free experience with exclusive benefits for viewers and creators.

Is it 8 million that subscribe to our channel over there?
But we know we're shadow banned.
We know that if we're to reach you, ultimately we have to get you on Rumble where we can speak to you freely.
Now let me know what else you want to talk to me about.
Gaza and Israel, that's our next subject.
We're also going to be talking about Didi, if you want to talk about it, and like Terrence Howard's chat on Rogan, Sam Harris and the gossip around that.
Bill Maher and Trump.
We've got so much vaccines.

Fixed Returnal in the Rumble chat says, Russell is next level as far as being able to parallel process chat, present and commentary.
Crazy good.
I love a compliment.
I will read all compliments connecting the greater good.
Russell, please watch The Lunatic Farmer and add it as a topic on your podcast, please.
All right.
Okay, I will.
Thanks for letting us know this, Russell.
I will never buy Dunkin' Donuts again.
I know...
The people that work there are alright, aren't they?
It's not their bloody fault.
Don't you think it would be good to have more subsidiarity?
Don't you sort of crave and hanker after the days where you go into a coffee shop and the people that were working there were participants and beneficiaries of that economy?
Wouldn't you like to eat food grown and reared near where you're from?
Shouldn't we break down centralised power wherever possible and only maintain it where it's necessary?
For example, I suppose you want some sort of military fighting force to protect your land.
I gather that.
I reckon you probably want law enforcement.
Don't you want farming to be connected to the land and to the community?
Don't all of us want to feel like we're viscerally connected to our nation, to our people, to one another?
Don't you feel that we have to make some pretty significant changes?
Let me know what you think about that in the comment and chat.
Yeah, baby, let me know.
Russell, I've got a great idea.
Get Trump on as a guest.
Paul Schrober, how do you come up with these ingenious schemes?
Now it's time for us to address what's going on in Israel, between Israel and Gaza.
There's another tariff story there, but let's do this first.
Okay, so 15 aid workers were killed.
I suppose by the Israeli Defence Force in Gaza last week.
Let's look at that story.
Let's talk about Netanyahu's visit to Trump and let's talk about the impact of Israel on American politics and see if in the next 10, 15 minutes or so if we can come up with some solution so that the Israeli people feel safe in their homeland and so that the people of Gaza feel safe in theirs.
It's a simple challenge for us to undertake.
Let's get on with it.
Well, you know how I feel about the Gaza Strip.
I think it's...
An incredible piece of important real estate.
A lot of people, of course, will be offended just by that type of language.
But, in a way, isn't the world continually reduced to a resource, and even people that are ecologically inclined only talk about saving Gaia, Mother Earth, in terms of extraordinary pagan apocalyptic religiosity, i.e., the Earth is our resource.
She feeds us.
She looks after us.
I believe in the divine sacred and the divine feminine.
Of course I do.
I believe in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
I believe that we have to as custodians of the earth love it and I believe that everyone has a right to be free and have a relationship with their land.
Let me know in the comments and chat how you feel about Trump's use of the term real estate to describe Gaza.
Is it a little glib?
Let me know what you think.
Important real estate and I think it's something that we would be involved in but you know having a peace force like the United States there controlling and owning the Gaza Strip would be a good thing because right now All it is, is for years and years, all I hear about is killing and Hamas and problems.
And if you take the people, the Palestinians, and move them around to different countries, and you have plenty of countries that will do that, and you really have a freedom, a freedom zone, you call it the freedom zone, a free zone, a zone where people aren't going to be killed every day, that's a hell of a place.
It's a, you know what I call it, a great location that nobody wants to live in, because they really How did that
work out?
Not good.
Okay, so there you are.
Trump's position, very clear.
The he that he's referring to is Benjamin Netanyahu.
Trump reiterates that the US will take Gaza.
There's nothing to buy.
Let me know how you feel about that in the comments and chat.
Would buy Gaza?
And today you just said we're not going to buy Gaza.
We're not going to have to buy.
We're going to have Gaza.
We don't have to buy.
There's nothing to buy.
We will have Gaza.
What is that?
No reason to buy.
There is nothing to buy.
It's Gaza.
It's a war-torn area.
We're going to take it.
We're going to hold it.
We're going to cherish it.
And Mr. President, take it under what authority?
It is sovereignty.
Under the U.S. authority.
In a way, the journalists there play into Trump's hands.
Trump knows how to have this kind of discourse and this kind of conversation.
But the conversation around Israeli sovereignty and the ongoing deaths in Gaza is a conversation that...
Pretty much anyone finds difficult to manage in a sanguine and open fashion.
Are we able to reach a position where, as with atheism and belief in God, we recognise that there are intelligent people on both sides of the argument?
Even if you're a believer in Christ Jesus like me, you'll be well aware that there are many atheists in the world that have brilliantly articulate views, or people of other faiths that have brilliantly articulate views.
For example, would you dismiss Rumi as an imbecile?
Rumi, the great...
Sufi poet.
And would you discount even modern day commentators on subjects like atheism like Richard Dawkins or the scientist Brian Cox?
Me, I'm open to all of these views.
So even if you advocate for an Israel state, it seems to me perfectly reasonable to look at the origins and the numerous wars, pacts, treaties and deals that led to its establishment.
But you can't either neglect scripture.
I suppose where we are right now is a place where Do we have to be open-hearted enough to acknowledge that there are some principles that transcend territory, that transcend war, that we must find in ourselves and in one another?
Do you believe like I do that maybe the conflicts in the Middle East are somehow the Gordian knot?
...of global peace.
For so much time it seemed like globalist imperialism, the kind of bureaucratic imperialism that was exposed during the pandemic, was where real power was located.
Did you feel like that?
The WEF and the WHO and NATO and these NGOs have this extraordinary power and influence that seems to be expressed through corporations and their ability to control, at least influence, but I would say control governments.
But now because of the rise of nativism, because of the success of Trump and the MAGA and Maha movement, that process in America has been to a degree interrupted.
Where is power now?
Where are the solutions to the war in the Middle East?
Where are the solutions to the war between Russia and Ukraine?
How are we going to, as evolved and awakened people and products and children of a Holy Father, going to live our lives a little differently now?
anti-Semitism to Islamophobia, that we have to find in ourselves and one another a new territory to explore where we can demand of our leaders that That we can openly say that the execution,
annihilation and death of people is wrong without being told first who are the people what was their religion what color were they in what conflict are we talking about can we and is it right for us to aspire to absolute principles of the sanctity of life and the love of one another to recognize our own prejudices and our own bigotry and to declare them before one another that we may be healed to recognize the limits of human power that
Who is benefiting from this?
And who would suffer were the conflict in that region to end?
If you have a president like Donald Trump who sees things it seems to me immaterial, rational and...
Economic terms.
Those are the kind of solutions that are likely to be presented and brought forth.
I guess what a lot of you have are questions about the impact and influence of Israel over American politics and whether or not that supersedes American interests.
I know, because my friend Tucker Carlson posted about it recently, that there seems to be a real threat of potential conflict with Iran.
I don't feel like anyone's going to benefit from that.
But for the people of Gaza and for many people in Israel that are affected by this conflict, this war is already happening.
The same as for people in Ukraine and Russia, this war is already happening.
The same for the people that are suicidal or homeless or hopelessly addicted, the apocalypse is already upon them.
Well, how long is it before the creeping fingers of the apocalypse affect you and I, before we are forced to confront our own mortality and our own transience and to reach out in hope and faith to all eternity?
Surely there is a kingdom beyond this one.
The supernatural pledges of every religion by I speak as a Christian are that there is a world and a realm beyond this one and from that world we derive our principles, all authority comes from that world and any opinions we have or decisions we make ought to be informed by that holy authority.
And Lord alone knows what chaos may reign if we reject it.
Surely we know it somewhat from experience because many people in positions of power deny that there is a God.
Many people and authorities and institutions say that mankind and our pleasures and our pursuits are the apex of all authority.
This we must reject as individuals, as nations, as communities, as tribes and as one planet under a holy sign together.
Surely then, perhaps new solutions will be emerging and emergent and victorious eventually.
This... Let's get into it together.
Let's be better together, baby!
The behavioural panel just did a body language analysis on your rebuttal.
They said you were, oh, the body language people.
I'll check that out.
I'll check that out.
I love those body language people.
Here's some body language for you, baby.
Let's get back into the story.
Oh, no.
Oh, this is the next.
This is the.
OK, this is Israel admits mistakenly shooting dead.
Aid workers in Gaza.
Now, you know, that is not a good move or a good inflection for this complex, difficult and agonizing story.
Let's have a look at Dave Smith's recent appearance on Joe Rogan, where Dave Smith questions Tulsi Gabbard and other members of the Trump administration that we felt would be representative of movements towards peace in this and other ongoing global conflicts.
In the belfry says, I'm beginning to like the shirt.
I knew you'd come round!
The real scandal is like when you look through the chat, and that it's like, what are we, because what are we doing here?
We're bombing another country in the Middle East, we're bombing the poorest country in the Middle East, Yemen, which has been bombed forever.
Oh my god, on beha- Honestly, they're talking about them texts and the signal leak and about Yemen.
Now, apparently in that signal chat, that now famous signal chat, J.D. Vance was the only person who was a bit, like, reticent about the potential for civilian categories and stuff.
Forever. Oh, my God.
on behalf of Israel because they're standing up against this fucking brutal war in Gaza right now.
And so we're going to bomb these guys again.
And then you have like, I got to say, man, like I was disgusted by Tulsi Gabbard's response there.
Someone who I've said a lot of nice things about over the years and who I really supported as being the DNI.
But like literally only, J.D.
Vance is the only one who offers the mildest pushback and goes, he's like, hey guys, this is kind of a mistake and it's kind of everything against what Donald Trump ran on.
And by the way, it's like such an insignificant amount of our trade that even goes through this area.
It's really Europe's problem, not ours.
But I'll go along with it if you guys want to.
If you guys say, and then they literally say on the thing, they go, we've...
This is the target they're trying to take out.
They go, we've tracked him to his girlfriend's apartment building.
And so we'll level the apartment building.
And then Tulsi Gabbard's just like, job well done, team.
Everybody's cheering it on.
There's not like, nobody, nobody even has the thought to go like, you know, like any...
Is there a way we could do this without, like, murdering an entire apartment building's worth of people here?
Is there a way?
Man, this is a lot like...
It's like, do none of you guys even kind of believe in God?
Are none of you even scared that maybe God exists and that, like, Jesus Christ, what are we doing here?
There's none of that.
There's not a feeling of that.
There's not a sense of, like, we're...
I like Dave Smith.
Djokovic says that Dave Smith's retarded, but I've always kind of enjoyed his commentary and perspective, and surely all of us...
That believe either in God or love or one another must be praying for, or if secular, hoping for an outcome that does not necessitate ongoing annihilation and war.
Surely, whatever conflict we are discussing, on a more practical front...
Surely we too want the Pentagon to be able to start passing audits and to have a greater examination of what they are afforded budgetarily from the taxpayers of your great nation.
Here's Trump announcing that the Pentagon will be getting a $1 trillion boon coming soon.
We have great things happening with our military.
We also essentially approved...
A budget, which is in the facility, you'll like to hear this, of a trillion dollars, one trillion dollars, and nobody's seen anything like it.
We have to build our military, and we're very cost-conscious, but the military is something that we have to build, and we have to be strong, because you've got a lot of bad forces out there now.
So we're going to be approving a budget, and I'm proud to say, actually, the biggest one we've ever done for the military.
Surely what we need is a prayer for peace.
Surely what we truly need are peacekeeping forces, if such a term ain't in itself an anathema and contradiction.
Surely we need to find a new consensus among us that whether we're of the left or the right or American or Chinese or Palestinian or Israeli, that we can reach resolutions through our shared and common divinity or access to our shared and common divinity,
that conflict played out on the physical plane will only perpetuate Let me know
what you think in the comments and the chat.
Hey you lot, did you see me on Sean Hannity recently on the TV?
I cropped up there.
It was an interesting time.
Here I am talking about me early life.
In a minute, we're going to be back talking about direwolves, vaccines, science and censorship.
Let me know, actually, what you want me to talk about.
Roxy Ann and Zionist Cuck and Get Ready to Rumble and JJ Grovo.
Let me know what you want us to talk about.
And also, my friends over there in the locals chat, let me know what you are, what of the listed topics you'd most like to see me cover.
But here I am talking to Sean Hannity.
I've not watched this yet about my early life.
Here's where I want to begin.
Your parents divorced.
That had to be hard.
The first year of my life, my parents were no longer together.
And I reckon, having spent a lot of time in communities where people talk openly about their past, the kind of recovery communities and group therapy communities that form around addiction, I know that my biography is unremarkable, completely unremarkable.
Every day I hear people that have harrowing and terrifying stories.
How could you say it's unremarkable?
Well, because it's happening in infinite space, for one thing, and it's happening across the scope of even all human history.
There's a friend of mine who's a sex worker who's been in jail a lot of times.
I say to her, unless you become clean and turn this around, your story, whilst harrowing, is...
Why you unbutton your shirts, says...
Who says that in the chat?
Why you unbutton your shirts?
No, it's not that.
It's like Roxanne.
You'd have to button them.
They start unbuttoned.
You have to button them.
So it's, uh, why would you button them?
Leave them unbuttoned, baby.
...whilst harrowing is unremarkable.
Sadly, the sad fact is, women that have to do...
Santiago says, do you recall the time you named Hannah E. Kendall?
I do.
I think I brought that up in the chat.
The fact is, women that have to do sex work to support their drug habit, they end up in jail, dying of an overdose, or some other tragic, slim and dreadful...
Can we talk about the genetically modified children?
Yes, let's talk about genetically modified children.
That does seem like an interesting place for us to go.
That's Sean Hannity interviews up, and I think we've got aspects of it up on Rumble.
Certainly Rumble Premium will be with you for another 13 minutes on Rumble.
Then you will have to get Rumble Premium to get additional access, more content from me, more content from Rumble's line-up, But now, as requested in the Rumble chat...
China's... Genetically modified children.
This is biotech founder Ben Lamb on Joe Rogan saying that China already has genetically modified children.
I was pretty astonished to learn that.
I mean, I'm still getting over the genetically modified foods.
Children now!
And can we eat them?
China, Russia, some other...
It is getting weird.
Like CRISPR and these genome engineering tools are outside of the bottle.
It's like the genie out of the bottle, right?
It's out there.
You can't put it back in.
I think that more and more people in other countries are going to be doing things with these technologies for humans.
That's why Colossal just said, we will never do anything for humans.
If someone else wants to use our technologies for humans, But that gets so weird, right?
Like, the China story.
You can't explain to people what they did.
They said they were inoculating them from HIV, which is...
Yeah. They actually were engineering babies and editing their embryos to confer a resistance to HIV.
Now, still to this day, so they were cloning them and then they were genetically modifying them.
And so they're doing lots of things that are, there's a general moratorium in the world on some of these things around humans.
Anything that's considered a germline edit.
So anything that could be passed on to the next generation, right?
So if you If you engineer something into the genome, the fear is, you know, from a germline, so all your cells in your body are somatic cells, except for your, like, egg or sperm, those are germ cells.
So anything that could be affected into the germline so that you pass it on to the next generation, that could be like, you know, umbrella corporation type moment, right?
So we don't want that.
The scary thing was, they didn't just do that.
They also...
Well, so, that part's, like, that part's quoted under debate.
There's people that say that happened, there's people that say it doesn't happen.
If you look at BGI or Beijing Genomics Institute, they did this thing that from an affairs perspective was brilliant.
From an affairs perspective, it's also terrifying.
During COVID, they're like, "We'll do all the COVID testing for you for free.
We'll do all this COVID testing for you for free.
No worries, just send us your data.
We'll do it all for free.
You just want to help the world, right?
We'll work with the World Health Organization.
Just send us all your samples from all your countries, everything." And publicly, the CEO of BGI,
so they've been like six or seven.
Are they already winning chess championships?
We should find out.
We should find out.
These kids are probably in a lab somewhere with a headset on.
Teaching them how to be psychic.
You only want to have trade wars with genetically modified China.
If China are creating an army of superchildren, then surely this is a further reason to find diplomatic and peaceful solutions to potential escalating tensions.
That's just what I think, though.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
It ain't just kids getting genetically modified.
The direwolves are back.
I didn't even know they were real, actually.
I thought they were just Game of Thrones animals, but it turns out they were actual creatures.
True Sears talking about this in the Rumble chat.
Yep, the dire wolf is back.
The past is back.
Jurassic Park is real life now.
Let's have a look at that.
It's on Time magazine.
Extinct. Not anymore.
Remus, the direwolf.
The first to exist in over 10,000 years.
This species could be changed forever.
Wow, endangered species could be changed forever or revivified.
Let's have a look at the video of the direwolf.
We turn now to that remarkable scientific breakthrough.
13. I turn to the side always when I do the news.
I face always one side.
That's the way I do news, except when I'm doing a debate, moderating a debate with Donald Trump.
Then I'm in the dead center, modifying and moderating that debate with absolute balance and fairness.
Back to the dire wolf.
Scientific breakthrough.
13,000 years after the last dire wolf walked the earth, scientists say they've now brought them back.
Here's our chief.
Well, firstly, it's adorable, isn't it?
Like, in Game of Thrones, they write little bastards, but that one's lovely.
Brought them back.
Here's our chief national correspondent back up and with the video tonight.
Tonight, a howl.
Annoying, though.
Needs some rough greens down its little neck, I'd say.
That direwolf, like my little dachshund.
A little bit too loud.
Howl, 13,000 years in the making.
In a first for science, biotech company Colossal Bio...
A direwolf escaped today and ate a whole bunch of children.
Direwolf are out and about enjoying...
A buddy Colossal Biosciences says it brought the extinct direwolf back to life.
I mean, they're brilliant.
I want a direwolf.
Back to life.
A species that hasn't walked the earth since the Stone Age.
The direwolf is the first de-extinct species.
Well known from HBO's hit show Game of Thrones.
ABC News given exclusive access into Colossal's lab in Dallas, where scientists are using genes from grey wolves to create dire wolves.
We've taken...
Is it just a white grey wolf?
Is this like when Miss Oxley said at my school that we've got these new crayons that are encased in wood?
I was like, whoa, crayons encased in wood.
That's going to be amazing.
And they were just colouring pencils.
These better be real direwolves.
Wolves. We've taken a grey wolf genome, a grey wolf cell, which is already genetically 99.5% identical to direwolves, and we've edited those cells at multiple places in its DNA sequence to contain the direwolf version of the DNA.
That animal looks like a direwolf, it will behave like a direwolf, and it is a direwolf.
Why did you say it looks like one and behaves like one?
If it is one, it covers all of that.
Now, seven months old, direwolves Romulus and Remus...
Yeah, Gala09 says the direwolf was like four times the size.
Yeah, you're right about that.
Like, in Game of Thrones, they're big.
I feel like people were riding about on their backs, weren't they?
...eating well and getting bigger every day.
And David, the company tells us they're not stopping there.
They plan to have woolly mammoths.
Matt Gottman, you mad hunk.
It's roaming the earth again.
I'm part dire wolf myself.
I've got a dire wolf haircut.
This bit of my hair is entirely Tulsi Gabbard wolf.
It's roaming the earth again by 2028, but critics argue that this de-extinction could harm fragile ecosystems.
David? Yeah, the images are really something, Matt.
Thank you.
All these images, they're blowing my mind.
I mean, I liked them so much, I nearly turned my head all the way to the front, but not quite enough to turn my head all the way to the front.
Oh, there you go, then.
It's not really a dire wolf, is it?
It's a grey wolf that's white.
That's not as good!
That's not as good.
I mean, where did they get it?
Did they say they got genes from, like, a fossil or something?
Where did they get it?
Did they say that?
They got a fossilized bed.
Yeah, we don't know what it looks like and moves like.
They're extinct from 10,000 years ago.
You're making it up!
You're making it up!
I want a proper direwolf!
I want the Iron Throne to be occupied by Jon Snow!
Yeah, you're right.
I'll tell you what that is.
That's the normalisation of genetic engineering.
That's what that news story is.
Hey, look, it's a bit like Game of Thrones.
You got yourself a Game of Thrones, Wolf.
Also, what we're doing is creating a super army of cyborg robot beings that are going to imprison you in your homes.
I'll take a sideways look at that next week.
I suppose the function of that story is to normalise genetic research at a time when people are deeply cynical about science after the Wuhan lab leak likely led to the coronavirus pandemic.
And the mRNA vaccines essentially cause more harm than good.
They have to sort of come up with branding exercises for why it's good to have a bunch of people in labs doing stuff that might end up having a detrimental overall impact on humankind.
But that's just what I think.
Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat, even if you think it's a real dire wolf.
The white walkers are a bit racist, says Paul Shover.
Yeah, they were a bit.
In the belfry said, these clowns never watched Jurassic Park.
You better believe it.
I mean, I'm so astonished when people don't, it's like, don't get the clear message of an obvious parable or myth.
The main one being King Midas.
People still say the Midas touch is a good thing.
Oh, he's got the Midas touch.
That was not good to have the Midas touch.
Children, lumps of gold.
You've got the Midas touch there.
What are you going to do?
Just lick your golden dead wife?
It's no good.
It's no good.
Learn what you're supposed to learn from the mythic.
The mythic can be truths that are deeper than rational and measurable truths.
They are the deeper archetypal truths that express themselves continually through our reality.
What do you think about that, Trish McLeod and Gio Meiser over in the Rumble chat?
What do you think about that, Polish dog?
What do you think about it?
Sensitive hearts and blessed old bird and all my friends over there in local.
Sick, vicious, don't worry, they didn't see Terminator either.
Yeah, you're right.
Patriotwoman75, what about Pet Sematary?
Yeah! Yeah.
Jananey, bringing back any species is a bad idea.
Zionist cut.
N-word wolf.
That's... That's racist.
That's racist there.
Although it would be a good name for a Kanye album.
Where's the gold?
Where's the gold?
Says Vern's Jewels.
No, Sheva's Back says that.
All right, you lot.
Well, thanks very much for watching this.
We're going to do a bit more on Rumble Premium, and we're going to raid the quarter in right now.
