Thank you.
In this video, you're going to see the future.
In this video, you're going to see the future.
Thank you.
We'll be right back.
Hello, you awakening wonders.
Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
What is it?
Monday, May the 5th.
May the 5th be with you.
Yeah, it don't work like that.
It don't work like that.
Here we are, absolutely live, free, in the suite.
State of Florida on Rumble.
If you ain't got Rumble Premium yet, why not?
What are you waiting for?
Tyranny?
Either in the form of globalism that might emerge in Ireland Penitentiary UK.
So much to tell you there.
There's been some really interesting election results.
Maybe the people of the UK are rising up.
Let me know what you think in the comments in chat.
Or maybe you think there'll be a new global religious order as Trump.
Only...
Only recently made the world's most powerful political figure.
Now wants to be the world's most powerful religious figure.
Or is it just a bit of fun?
We'll be talking about that trolling.
We'll be talking about UK politics.
We'll be talking about Alcatraz reopening.
We'll be talking about Israel and whether or not...
Israel's relationship with America is a problem.
Colonel247, thank you for the compliments.
Dean SNJ, how's it going?
Central Scrutiniser, Johnny Note.
Look at my beloveds in the local chat.
I'm talking about Caroline Crosby, the nerd, far away, we used to be 48. All of you, hello, hello, horse67.
Trish McLeod says it's a holy war.
If it is a holy war, there can be only one winner because it is finished.
It is done.
Tim Casts, thank you for the raid.
I'm sure all of you are fans of Tim Paul and his innovative journalism.
Did you see him when he turned up at the White House like my man Winston Marshall asking questions in there?
We've got a lot to talk about.
Clutch 616.
How's it going?
Killer Gorilla.
Unanimous Andrew.
All of you guys, thanks for being with us.
If you're watching us on YouTube or X, we love you and we welcome your freedom and your custom and your eyeballs.
But you've got to get on over to Rumble and support us there, potentially with Rumble Premium.
Let us enjoy freedom.
It may not even be one of the demagogues or demi-nitwits that drives us into tyranny.
It could be, as we were told in the 90s, Skynet.
The Chinese have created a robot that looks like a right little bastard.
Bastard.
I want to live!
*music*
If I was working at a factory, that's it.
The experiment's off.
We're not doing this no more.
I went spearfishing with my mates.
They said, oh, hey, we just saw a bull shark down there.
I was like, yeah, well, that's it.
I'm going home.
Fuck this.
I'm not getting devoured by the monsters of the deep.
The first time I see that, yeah, karate chopping rumble foreskin, says in the rumble chat, like the minute it tried to Pinocchio me, like an evil Pinocchio, like an evil Terminator Pinocchio, I ain't got no strings to tie me down, to make me laugh, to make me frown.
Hiya, Chinese evil robots.
Oh, no, you didn't.
Is it for this that we were redeemed?
Is it for this that we rose from the dust by the light of the heavenly father?
For robots to chop us to death?
Looks like it might be.
Let's see if it does anything else interesting.
Also, who works there?
Nerds.
Total nerds.
There's no one, like, ripped up, shredded and buff working in a Chinese robot.
Oh no!
Zoinks!
We're in a lot of trouble now!
What are we gonna do?
It's coming for me!
Give it a Chinese burn!
Oh my god, is that racist?
China.
It came from China.
Maybe then we will yield to simple good old-fashioned populist tyranny.
Trump is having a military parade.
But in spite of its incredible costs, apparently it's going to generate even more revenue.
Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.
Do you like it?
Do you think that the military should be celebrated?
Those brave men and women that are willing to give their lives what they believe in?
Or do you think that the military ultimately get deployed against the domestic population?
We've got different countries.
We've got different histories.
Do you like?
Do you like it when you see their military parades in Korea or in China?
Owens went to that army versus navy football game.
I'll tell you, it was amazing.
I loved it.
Like one part of the crowd was army, other part of the crowd was navy, grey hats, white hats.
Everyone on the field would die for everyone in the stands.
Don't that kind of valour and honour turn you on a little bit?
Or do you think militarism equates to...
Mm-hmm.
Organized state violence and will always be used to control and oppress the people.
Let's have a look.
There's NBC talking about it.
The president also told me that next month he's planning a military parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army that also falls on his 79th birthday.
We're going to have a big, beautiful parade.
A military parade?
Yeah, sure.
Okay.
We're going to celebrate our military.
We have the greatest military in the world.
What's the price tag?
People...
We have the greatest missiles in the world.
We have the greatest submarines in the world.
We have the greatest army tanks in the world.
We have the greatest weapons in the world.
And we're gonna celebrate it.
I don't know, maybe America needs the pre-apic boost, the machismo, the testosterone, the confidence of Donald Trump.
In a way, America was being dragged into a quagmire of doubt as post-modern politics deconstructed and pulled apart everything that people thought was certain, right down, in fact, to the Constitution or even the building blocks of the Constitution.
For example, if you can't rely on an idea like family or the idea of a man or the idea of a woman, like, how can you...
We sort of say we're all free to pursue happiness or we've got the right to bear arms or the right to free speech.
And this kind of destructivism or deconstructivism does lead to a type of nihilism, doesn't it?
So let me know what you think in the comments in chat.
What are you more scared of?
AI robotics bringing you down?
Or are you more scared of sort of militaristic demagoguery bringing you down?
Let me know what you think, Stefania.
42088, American weapons are shit, says Bronco 11. Parade bought to you by Pfizer, says...
Big white dog.
Roland 91 is pretty plain on the subject.
Trump's a genius.
Genius, I suppose, means that a person acts beyond the remit and rational logic of what we can understand and deduce a person might do, whether it's in sport or art and politics.
When someone seems to be conveying something that's difficult to understand, perhaps we're likely to lean back, reflect, and say, genius!
This person is a genius!
Who believes that Sean Penn...
He's a genius.
Let me know what you think about Sean Penn.
Now, I like that guy's an actor, and I think that when he's going over a high ease on a canoe and everything, helping people, I think he's proper decent.
I think he really wants to help people.
Also...
I remember when he was married to Madonna, he was always smacking paparazzi in the mouth and stuff.
When I was married to Katy Perry, he used to think about that, because when you're married to a woman and you feel like, I've got to protect this woman, and there's all these people around us, and paparazzi are so annoying.
I tell you now, you want to smack them in the mouth.
It's so hard not to, because you think, who cares?
Who in the world is like, everyone likes it, don't they, when a paparazzi gets smacked?
Have you ever seen a celebrity or whatever?
Punch a paparazzi in the mouth and go, hey, you shouldn't do that.
That paparazzi is simply doing their job, parasitically trying to capture your image and render it on a screen somewhere.
Like, you like it, don't you?
We all enjoy it.
So let's have a little think about Sean Penn.
Let's think about the great things he's done on camera.
Or F. Sean Penn, says Tam Desch, not so concerned.
Half the world today doesn't even know who he is.
He hasn't been relevant in 30 years.
Ted Dapp came into space.
I want you to elaborate on that marriage.
What do you mean elaborate?
Ask me a question.
What do you want to know?
Russell's ex almost went to outer space.
Hey!
All my exes.
Get it?
Hey, can I do this kind of joke anymore?
Hey, every lady I've ever known gets a little trip to space.
Can you do that after the charges?
I don't know.
Let me know in the comments in the chat.
I don't know, baby.
Is it okay to have a joke anymore?
Let me know in the comments in the chat.
Do we stay free?
Do we believe in freedom?
Do we believe that we are born again, made new?
Do we believe that we're entitled to the freedom and redemption of the Holy Father?
Do we believe in innocent till proven guilty?
Do we believe in our institutions of justice?
Do we trust the media?
All these questions and more we're going to be answering.
Here we go, baby.
Let's have a look at Sean Penn saying Trump might destroy the world.
But before Bukili gets to that point where he's dealing with another leader, we should consider worst-case scenarios.
And I do think it's a reasonable theory that Donald Trump is not unlike the spouse of someone who leaves him perhaps for another, who then murders their former partner because if they can't have her, nobody can.
And I think Donald Trump in his solipsism may have that relationship.
Trump is like a spouse whose partner has left him for another who believes if I can't have her, no one can.
Do you think you can map that trope onto a global leader's relationship with their country?
Any of you, have you ever had your heart broken?
Has anyone ever broken your heart, like left you or something?
A relationship you didn't want to end, it ended.
Have you ever had that happen to you?
And you feel like, oh, I'm so confused.
I'm so broken.
Without that person's love, I'm just not enough.
I'm not enough, right?
I don't feel like Donald Trump feels things like that.
I don't feel like he does, do you?
I don't think he operates.
I don't feel like he's vulnerable in that type of way, right?
Because, like me, I know what it's like now to be the...
Subject.
I don't want to use the word victim.
I want to say subject of lawfare.
We feel like, well, these institutions are maneuvering in ways that seem really interesting and potentially biased.
And it's a real pressure.
It's a real flex.
You feel the world warp around you.
Now, for me, without God, without a loving God, knowing that God will fight for me, I need only to be still.
I think I'd fall apart.
And without, like, prayers, knowing that people are praying for me all the time, we go, well, people are telling me they're praying for me.
It's so beautiful.
So much love.
So much grace.
Donald Trump, though, you see that, man.
Like, when it driven, it was like, there are 93 federal charges against Trump.
We'll get that son of a bitch orange motherfucker on one of them.
I tell you we will.
You just wander out.
They go, it's fake news.
Phony charges.
Like, you just walk out.
He wasn't bothered, did he?
He wasn't bothered.
You can't even...
Regard him from a partisan perspective anymore.
He is a mythic figure risen from the collective imagination of America, as perhaps all leaders are.
That's the argument, isn't it, when it comes to Hitler?
And I'm not making the comparison that people on the left make when it comes to Trump and Hitler.
People say, no one could do what he did.
It's inconceivable.
He must be a kind of cipher.
Of the German people wounded and broken by the conditions of the First World War and the kind of generalized sense of anti-Semitism that was across Europe at that time.
And anti-Semitism continues to be an issue.
I'm sure you're aware of that.
In fact, that's one of the things we'll be talking about a little later.
Where is the line between anti-Semitism and having a contrary view to the Israeli deep state?
Where is that line?
Where is that line?
We'll be discussing that a little bit later.
But Hitler...
He was slightly absurd and preposterous and ridiculous when you met him.
Not when you met him, I never met Hitler.
But when you sort of look at the dude, it's inconceivable that this vagabond, vagrant, son of a customs officer, artist, vegetarian, low-ranking officer could...
Achieve such extraordinary power and wreak such havoc.
He must have been a conduit for energetic forces, comparable in fact to what we mean when we say genius.
Something comes through you.
In the Bible it will talk about living water.
The living water, the Holy Spirit, this great power that we can receive, be recipients and expressions of if we surrender the self.
They say that the saint...
Has returned us to the innocence of Adam.
Adam prior to the fall.
If you become as a saint, it means you're not caught up in your own stuff.
You said that to me.
I wanted that by Wednesday.
And my thirsty morning, it still weren't here.
So I put on some porn and I wanked my winkle.
I got myself a bar of chocolate.
Or I took heroin or whatever it is.
Die.
Die unto yourself that he may live in you.
So anyway, listen, let's get back to Sean Penn.
This ain't helping anyone, is it?
Is it helping anyone?
Let me know, shithead circus.
Let me know, big white dog, thieving.
All of you, let me know your questions.
Hitler believed in Christ enough to seek out the spear of destiny, says Rumble Foreskin, who, I'm going to be honest with you, that's my favourite name of anyone on any of the chats.
Not saying my favourite person, my favourite...
Name.
Penn has De Niro syndrome.
Have you seen yesterday's Sado News?
Look it up.
Come on.
I can't stand Madonna.
She's a stupid lowlife cunt.
Mate, that's too heavy.
That is too heavy.
What do you...
Why?
She's a stupid...
I don't feel that about anyone.
About anyone.
Faith Farms.
I can't stand Madonna.
She's a stupid lowlife cunt.
That is too much, mate.
You've got to work on that.
Let that go.
You've got to get to the point by the end of the show where you go...
Actually, I love Madonna as a sister in Christ.
That's our job, to get you there.
You cannot feel that about someone you don't know.
It's too crazy.
Let's get back to shortly.
...
with the world and that this destruction is in part a power play and also a literal intention of his final out.
You think he'll try to stay on?
I think he might try to destroy the world before he ages out of life.
I might try to destroy the world before he ages out of life.
This is what I've noticed about actors.
You get so much attention that you think that you're important and I think it makes people go a bit mad.
That's basically it.
Did you ever watch the South Park where it's like Russell Crowe fighting around the world?
We're making films, singing songs, and fighting around the world.
People take themselves too seriously.
Russell Crowe, I met him.
I think he's really nice.
Sean Penn, I bet he's really nice.
But if you get loads of attention, it makes you go crazy.
I said the same thing to you about Snow White Lady.
People start thinking, yeah, actually, I am important.
People don't realise.
No, what it is is you're a commodity that temporarily is a vessel for profit.
Temporarily.
And if you do anything remotely wrong or remotely out of line with their intentions, you are...
Ow!
Like, that's why the truly great stars, say like Leonardo DiCaprio, they keep the fuck out of the way.
Maybe turn up a little bit and talk about something very safe like climate change.
You know, because then he can just crack on with screwing 25-year-olds for the rest of his life.
Yeah, well, Johnny Depp.
I don't know, man.
Like, yeah, I think people get carried away.
Whether it's Johann Nouveau Harari, the dude that wrote Sapiens, or an actor, you are temporarily useful to the culture.
That's what I've discovered or been shown.
Say if you write a book and say, there's no reason to believe in God, surrender to AI.
That's basically the message of Sapiens.
Our only ability is our ability to create narratives.
Surrender.
Sorry about that burp.
It really sort of took me out of myself.
It was too bad of a burp, really.
It was too much of a burp.
Climate change, says Leo.
Then he gets on his private jet.
Yeah, of course.
He's going to be fraught with hypocrisy because if you're a super rich actor and really all you do is read stuff out, you know, it's not that hard, is it?
It's a crazy little job.
It's a crazy little job.
But some films are good.
Forrest Gump, good film.
Good fellas, good film.
That's what films I've been watching.
The Matrix.
I want to do, you lot in there, I want to do a watch-along on The Matrix where we just watch The Matrix and then talk about it.
Would you like to do that?
Because I'm telling you, me and Dave watched it on our way back from England.
Dad's popped to England the other day.
I don't know if you saw it in the news.
On the way back, watch The Matrix.
On the way in, watch Beautiful Mind.
And I felt...
I should be talking about this stuff because I really, really care about it.
Sometimes I tell you this, I think that the news cycle is so kind of hollow that we should talk about a wider variety of stuff.
In fact, we are going to do that over the course of the next hour.
Whether you're watching this on X or on YouTube or at our great home, Leonardo the crap all over Diddy's bed, says one Sarah B. I can't believe that a woman would write that.
Are you really a woman, one Sarah B?
It's Leonardo...
Crapped all over Diddy's bed.
And also watched, I showed my kids some of the films I've done.
I showed my kids after.
It's been amazing.
Alright, listen.
Let's do a quick commercial.
Then what we're going to do is we're going to get back.
We're going to talk about Bonnie Blue doing a dogging tour.
Satan is real!
When you see a story like that, that's Satan.
Hello, Satan!
Like, you know, Bonnie Blue, a porn actor, is travelling around doing a dogging tour, which I presume means she tells people I'm going to be at a location and then people can line up and fuck her.
That's...
Pure Satan.
Bambi Rose, glad to see you're not in jail, Russell.
Me too, but you can be in a prison anywhere unless you are free and liberated in him.
Here's a quick message from our sponsors.
Rough, rough, rough green, rough greens.
That's how my dog demands he's rough greens.
My dog's got health challenges.
We've all got a lot of challenges.
The simple truth is that most dogs aged over 10 years old will die of cancer.
Not turbo cancers, unless you've been vaccinating your dogs.
But life comes to an end.
But why should your dog's life come to a premature end?
It...
Should.
Premature is never good.
Premature ejaculation.
Bad.
No one likes that, do they?
Oh, sorry, dear.
It's a bad thing.
Don't have a premature dog death.
Give them rough greens instead.
50% of dogs over 10 will die of cancer.
And the other 40-50% suffer miserably from skin issues or joint problems.
And premature ejaculation.
But why would you even have a time limit for how quick your dog should ejaculate?
What are you?
Pervert?
This is widely attributed to your dog's diet.
Give 'em a rough greens.
I give my dog a rough greens, even the one I don't like as much.
Give some rough greens to her as well.
I'm trying to have dog equality.
So here's the good news.
These numbers are what inspired naturopathic doctor Dennis Black to create rough greens.
Rough Greens.
With thousands of testimonials and five-star reviews every month, Rough Greens is now the number one all-natural dog supplement in the United States of here.
They have helped millions of pups like mine stay active and be healthy.
And your pup could be next.
You don't have to change your dog's food to improve your dog's health.
Just add a scoop of Rough Greens.
Fetch a free Jumpstart trial bag for your dog today.
You just cover the shipping.
We're going to give you a trial bag for nothing.
And if you're in Bogota, Colombia...
You can have one of them.
They hate that in Colombia.
Don't include that.
Go to roughgreens.com.
Just use the promo code RUSSELL.
That's R-U-F-F-GREENS.com.
And use the promo code RUSSELL.
Sausages.
Sausages.
You don't have to change your dog's food to improve your dog's health.
Just add a scoop of rough greens.
You can just give a little scoop of rough greens.
Your dog will live forever.
Then your dog will eat you when you're dead.
That's the circle of life.
It's the circle!
It's the circle of life, rough greens.
Come on, that's a brilliant advert, isn't it?
It's brilliant.
That's brilliant.
Isn't it?
Look at that.
Wally X69, the rumble chat.
Premature ejaculation relates to rough greens.
Not really.
I should just go with my imagination.
Russell, how do you feel about playing God in the Army of One?
Well, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, really.
I've never seen Army of One.
Me and what I will say is Nicolas Cage.
Cool, man.
I love that geezer.
He let me stay in his house in Glastonbury.
He's well cool.
Greens, make your dog vegan.
Now, you're not making your dog vegan.
It's a supplement, mate.
Don't be argumentative.
Did you take your job with it to Florida?
Yes.
His name is Leonardo DiCaprio.
That's just childish.
Listen, there's a lot to do here.
They've got a lot to get through.
So can you please, all of you, I need you just to concentrate if we're going to get through today's show, all right?
We've got a lot on.
We've got to talk about Trump trolling as the Pope.
Nicholas Cage is fucking well cool.
He's well cool.
I'm going to swear sometimes, alright, when I'm working, I think it's okay and I think the Lord forgives me because I'm here to communicate Christianity in the way that the Lord tells me directly, like he'll tell you directly your thing, yeah?
Premature ejaculation is fun.
Most girls like it, says Fright Shack.
I don't think people do, because it's sort of embarrassing.
She's got to be in control.
Anyway, look, I'm not involved in that sort of thing anymore.
Right, listen, but I'll tell you why.
Because it's fucking evil!
And it's sinful!
You'll repent of your fucking sins, you will!
Bonnie Blue is going around...
Fucking people in car parks, or in your language, parking lots, and calling it a job.
Now, the problem is this.
When I was a younger man, I'd have done that.
If you find yourself on the 17th of May in Skegness, I mean, it's not good, is it, that?
That is not good.
What do you think, guys?
This is why I tell you all the time, you don't like it when I go, you don't like it when I talk about porn, because you feel guilty, don't you?
Because of all your tossing off, you little jerks.
I'll tell you this, it's making you weak.
We must, what you have to do, the reason the point of Lent, for example, is to identify what you put ahead of God.
Jordan Peterson would say, highest principle, I would say, Jesus Christ, the son of the living God.
Like, if what you put ahead of that is, you know, love of your children, fancy clothes, jerking off, it ain't good.
It ain't good.
Let's have another look at Bonnie Blue, Isaac.
I know AIPAC might have told you to take it down, but, you know, we work for Rumble.
We do not work for Israeli lobbyist groups.
All right, Isaac?
Yeah, that's right.
We have Jewish people working here.
We have Muslims working here.
We don't have any Muslims working here, but we would have.
We have Christians working here because I believe in freedom and equality and the Holy One.
So listen, this dogging tour of the UK, Swansea.
Like, look, see, you don't know what all these places mean because you're probably American.
Bradford, good, decent people.
Big Muslim community.
Lovely, decent.
I don't agree with ending variety.
I agree with empowering people and governing from the basis of the Lord's power.
Bonnie Blue, she clearly needed the money.
It's right there in her name.
Ask the Dice Man.
Poor lady.
She's a child of God, isn't she?
That's the fact of the matter.
She's a child of God.
Glasgow, good people, divided by football and religion.
Belfast, divided by religion.
Skegness.
Skegness.
If you find yourself masturbating in a car park in Skegness, please pray the name of Jesus.
You need saving.
You need saving quick and fast.
She's selling condoms.
Well, in a sense, that's a positive thing, I would say, under the circumstances.
Lord, we pray for Bonnie Blue, and we pray that she finds her way to whatever it is that's pushing, pulling her through life.
The fallenness, the brokenness that would allow a person to celebrate fecundity and fornication.
I'm not talking bad about Glasgow.
I love Glasgow.
I love my country, Britain.
I love it.
Lord, redeem her.
Appear to her.
End this madness.
Lord, end this madness.
Okay, let's get into our main story.
We've got a lot to talk about.
Kamala's back.
Did you know that?
One thing we learned from the 2025 election cycle is people love Kamala Harris.
She's astute.
She's brilliant.
She's a good public communicator.
She definitely doesn't have a private drinking problem.
That's for damn certain.
Why don't we run her again at the next election?
Here she is.
The Democrats are cautiously opening the door to another Harris run in 2028.
Let me know what you think about that in the comments and the chat.
Kamala is back doing what Kamala does best.
Probably that means...
Sounding drunk, I guess.
Alright, this way.
One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two, now cross.
Alright.
Here we go!
Alright!
Alright!
The dancing was good.
The high five that she missed at the end was a bit sad.
The reduction of politics to trivia Is interesting and we can discuss that.
Does Trump trivialise politics and religion when he posts those memes of himself?
Does Kamala or any politician, when they attempt to bring to the forefront affability and ease around people, does that mean that they're reducing the power of politics?
What I feel about it...
It's when liberal politicians in particular present themselves as affable and amenable and down with the culture or down with the kids or whatever.
What I feel is particularly deceptive about it is the fact that they are owned by commercial and corporate powers in this sort of very vanilla Naomi Klein way through lobbying and donations.
The Democrat Party abandoned the working class, are completely owned by the military industrial complex and big pharma.
In order to mask the fact that they've abandoned working people, they elevated and amplified their interest.
Look, we really care about trans people, gay people, ethnic minorities, all the while denigrating working-class communities and abandoning working-class people, most obviously, and the key exemplar of this phenomenon being 2008 Obama abandons ordinary Americans in favour to bail out the banks, right?
So in order to say that people don't just recognise, hold on a minute, this is all just so hokey...
Bullshit.
They have to pretend that they care about, hey, we care about trans issues.
Not only that, you divide people.
I liked Dave Smith's analysis on this when he says around 2008 you saw the emergence of the Occupy movement, you saw the continuing of the Tea Party, in short, grassroots populist working class movements on both the left and the right were coming together.
Because really, you know this, don't you?
However much you love Donald Trump or however much you love Kamala or Keir Starmer or whoever, If you are not engaged in virtuous community action at the level of your individual life, your family life, your community life, then you will be sort of ushered through reality like shepherded, not by a dark shepherd.
In fact, I prefer the metaphor of cattle.
You will be chattel.
You will be livestock.
That's what I believe.
Okay.
So let's get into that.
Jesus Christ, like I say, will you be discussing the Ramonian presidential election, says Bob Matthews.
What I know about that is that the EU called them off and cancelled them and they'll do that anyway because they're a bureaucratic, false light organisation.
Let's have a look at Kamala Harris who...
In a sense, I think, represents the nadir of a particular type of politics, the idea that you can push forward these ciphers, Biden, Clinton, whoever, and not investigate what their value is.
That's over now.
And yet they're trying to resurrect it.
They're trying to create a false resurrection.
What Trump represents is some sort of mallet hammer.
Cock smashing down the sort of false puppets and marionettes of the Democrat left.
It's over, baby, but they don't believe it's over.
And here is Kamala talking about San Diego Zoo and elephants probably trying to offer up some secular parable of meaning, which is what she sort of tried to do a lot.
And I'm guessing not doing it very well.
I've not watched this before.
This was prepared by the great Gareth, who pulls all of our content.
Let's have a look and see what we think about it together.
In fact, please allow me, friends, to digress for a moment.
Okay.
Well, things are digression.
For it not to be a digression, you'd have to be addressing the reality of our situation, that there are two things to consider at the moment.
Is the nation-state real and worth protecting?
And are we being overrun by nefarious, malfeasant globalist forces that Trump temporarily delays, or at least to a degree, redirects?
Anything other than that is a digression.
How do we confront it?
Only by becoming spiritually awakened, emboldened, by becoming true awakened individuals.
This means this.
In your mind right now, there is an internal discourse, isn't there?
You're watching this through your eyes.
You're receiving sensory information, electrical signals in your mind.
And there is your voice, the voice that you consider to be yourself.
And there is something else in there with you, isn't there?
Who is it?
Who's in there with you?
What is the second voice that's within you?
And could you surrender that voice to something else?
Could you remain in continual communion with a living God?
Could this living flow within you be directed towards God?
If you can't get there yet, you'll likely be captured by cultural powers.
So Kamala Harris and indeed the entire Democratic Party are themselves a digression.
Okay.
It's kind of dark in here, but I'm asking a show of hands.
I just saw that video from a couple of weeks ago, the one of the elephants at the San Diego Zoo during the earthquake.
Google it if you've not seen it.
So that scene has been on my mind.
Everybody's asking me, what you've been thinking about these days?
Well, I don't know what to make of it.
I think she's quite nice.
um But I don't think you can let her run America.
And obviously, the idea that she's being considered for a 2028 would be an indication that the Democrat Party ain't learned anything.
But that was clear anyway.
None of these parties have.
Britain, for a moment, lurched leftward under Labour with Jeremy Corbyn.
But I would say an authentic left.
Remember, the British left owes as much to Methodism as to Marx.
Then...
It redirected itself back into the kind of centralising forces of Blair, Blair, whose name tells you everything you need to know.
Blair, it sounds like you're puking in your own mouth when you say his name.
Forgive me, Lord.
Anyway, anyway, let's have a look at how...
The Democrats and the globalists are reforming, man.
Thank you, everyone.
Just to add on the Kamala Harris point, I think I speak for everyone at the White House.
We encourage Kamala Harris to continue going out and do speaking engagements.
You'll hear from the president at 11 o 'clock.
See you guys later.
Check this, right?
This is Tim Walsh saying that Kamala Harris is the most well-qualified person ever to have run.
It's interesting.
Russell Brand is a Tavistock programmer, says fringe minority.
No, I'm not.
I don't even know what that actually means.
We don't know what that means.
And I'll tell you this.
I believe in your individual freedom.
I believe in you should believe in and pursue your faith, yourself.
I believe that you should be open to spontaneity.
I think that you should surrender yourself to the Lord.
So any idea that I'm in some way captured, I've got the same motivations you've probably got.
Sustenance of self, protection of the family, survival in the light of the Lord.
That's it.
I'm giving up on things.
I'm watching pleasure.
You're out of your mind.
You're out of your actual mind.
You're limiting yourself by something that crazy.
You crazy soppy sod.
I invite you to Islam, Mr. Cheeky Chops Russell.
Love Auntie Susan in Bournemouth, UK.
That's the kind of message that I want in the Rumble Chat.
Let's have a look here at Tim Waltz.
Another man who seems to be just in some giddy...
Sputum and continual frothing foam of empty, hollow babble, like sometimes I see in this chat.
I do look healthy.
I feel pretty good.
And I think after the fact, it is not second-guessing or anything.
I think it's fair to go back and look at this.
Look, we had the most qualified person who'd run for president in this country's history at the top of the ticket.
That in itself should have got this thing won.
We had, in my opinion, and you can disagree with me, I think history will prove me that She's not the most qualified presidential candidate in history, is she?
By what metric would that be?
What does he mean when he says that?
Can he even mean that?
Does he mean that at all?
That means that he's saying that Kamala Harris would have been a better president, or at least a more qualified president, than JFK, or Lincoln, or FDR.
I mean, that is an absurd thing.
George Washington, come on.
You're mad.
You've gone completely mad.
The Democrat Party have no principles.
They are an amorphous...
They are a blob.
They have no meaning and no function.
They are there to service an agenda that they don't themselves even fully understand.
They have been captured by finance.
They are lost.
And because of that, you will just hear meaningless, endless babble whenever you tune into them.
Here, though, you will get the vibrant light of truth.
You will get free speech.
That means you will get occasional contradiction.
You will get paradox.
You will have to live in the tension of being in the world, but not of it.
But that's just why I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
If you're watching this on YouTube, we're going to leave you now.
But click the link in the description.
You're able to make sense of madness.
You reassemble the mess of debris and chaos left behind after a tornado that hit an airport back into a working plane.
That's very nice.
That is a good compliment.
Thank you very much.
Okay, let's go, baby.
We're going to talk now about the Trump trolling.
I'm a Christian.
I love the Lord.
I pray the Rosary.
I love so many aspects of Catholicism, but at the moment I'm an open Christian.
Click the link in the description.
Let's look at this Trump trolling the Pope.
It's pretty fascinating that he's doing this when the Pope is not long dead and Conclave, the movie, is being lived out in real life.
I see that movie, Conclave.
Like, you know, spoiler alert, the idea that a hermaphrodite pope would be some kind of apotheosis of the cultural war's focus on trans issues is ridiculous.
I don't think there's anyone, even the most virulent, no trans men in women's sports, turf, feminist, or the most bigoted person who just can't comprehend someone even dyeing their hair or wearing tooth braces because it was an affront against God, would ever say that the problem is biological.
It's a fudged argument.
It's a stupid argument.
Quite a good film, though, up until the bit where it gets there, because it's sort of like it's trying to have an argument that's not really an argument that anyone's happening.
No one's saying, hermaphrodites, those that are born with male and female sex organs, that 0.000001% of the human population, they must be stopped.
They must be stamped out.
What people are arguing is, do not...
Pretend that you're God to the degree where you can change every aspect of reality.
Surrender to the power of God or you will surrender to the power of man and therefore the devil because men are fallen and broken.
Meanwhile though, Trump is having a gay old time suggesting that he should be the next pontiff.
What does it mean when a president says that?
We are going to analyze this.
We are going to analyze the absolute arse of it.
We are going to understand it.
By the time I stop talking, you are going to be so clever that it's going to make it difficult for you to live among other people.
And let me tell you, I know what that's like.
As preparations continue for the conclave at the Vatican that will choose the next pope, President Trump has entered the conversation posting a surprising image of himself.
Dressed as Pope, it comes as the president is defending his administration's actions on tariffs.
Bradley Blackburn has more.
Bradley Blackburn has more.
Do you recognize that even the tune of the news these days is telling you that it's kind of irrelevant, that it's on in a waiting room, in a dentist's office, or an airport?
This isn't actual information that you can take seriously.
At the Vatican Saturday, amid the splendor of the Sistine Chapel, work crews set the stage for the Conclave, installing the chimney that will announce the selection of the next...
Time that movie good.
You gotta say, ain't it?
I mean, what a touch for them.
Fucking hell, the Pope's dead.
Ka-ching!
...the selection of the next pope.
But in Palm Beach, President Trump was the one blowing smoke on social media, posting an AI-generated image of himself dressed as Pontiff.
The apparent joke with no written comment was reposted by the official White House account and played off the...
I mean, it's amazing.
How are the Tim Walts, Gavin Newsom, Kamala class going to deal with that...
Level of berserker trickster energy.
Do you understand deep archetypes?
Do you understand deep power?
Do you understand that the old institutions are in bewilderment and bafflement with their counterfeit measures, their old school psyops when there's someone who's president that will just go, yeah, post it.
That's so next level.
Imagine Barack Obama doing that.
Imagine Bill Clinton doing that.
It's so beyond.
What used to be the norm?
They are scrambling in ashes.
And they've got nothing to oppose him with.
Even if you think that's wrong, even if you are a devout Catholic, and even obviously within Catholicism, there are some people that think progressive post-1968 Vatican II Catholicism is a compromise.
There are other people that think that Luciferianism is embedded within the Vatican.
There is so much complexity within various church institutions, isn't there?
I'm so open to the argument that...
But Christ anoints Peter.
Feed my sheep.
Hear my voice.
I'm so open to that.
I think that's a very beautiful idea, that lineage.
I love the tradition.
I love the liturgy.
I love the Latin.
I love all of it.
I love the Lord so seriously.
But the comedian in me cannot be offended by what Trump is doing because I don't think he's taking it seriously.
I don't think he's taking them seriously.
Anyone that took them seriously would not have got through them various trials, them trumped-up trials that he had to endure.
False attacks that he had to endure.
I'm not out here batting for Trump and Lord alone knows he don't need me.
What I'm batting for is the fact that you created through your falsehoods, through your globalism, your imperialism, the conditions in which he would thrive and you continue to ring the old bells yet.
Kamala, Gavin Newsom, AOC, Bernie Sanders, digital ID, more injections.
No!
Awaken now.
If you're in politics, whatever party you're involved in, if your sole focus is in the betterment of the country you're meant to serve and the direct loving service of the people of America or the United Kingdom, you are false and you should be annihilated.
Annihilated out of office.
And a good way of ensuring that only the right people get into it is this.
End donations.
End lobbying.
And anyone who serves in Congress should not be able to make money in any other way.
That's what I think.
Let me know what you think.
If you want principles, principles cost.
That's what principles are.
Principles is a price, baby.
That's what principles are.
Let's go back to this legacy media bullshit where they don't recognize they created the conditions for this trolling themselves with their own inauthenticity.
And played off the President's suggestion earlier this week.
As Pope?
I'd like to be Pope.
That would be my number one choice.
No, I don't know.
I have no preference.
The president isn't Catholic, but some of the faithful did not find it funny.
On X, a former Italian prime minister wrote, this is an image that offends believers.
And the Catholic bishops of New York.
Listen how the news, what the news do.
They find ways of conveying their opinion by referencing other subjective views.
Can you find a bishop or someone who's condemning Trump?
Yeah, of course you can.
Right, put that in.
So that's the way that you construct a narrative.
The word media, it means connecting tissue.
You can hear that, right, in the Latin etymology of the word.
What the media should be is, here's the information.
You, like me, are an agent of light and truth.
You work out what you want from it and then argue back, right?
Like Trapper 220.
It's funny because Trump don't give a shit.
Final Esper.
Christian here.
Not offended.
Demons are wrong again.
Liars.
Trump trolled them hard.
You know, so what we have to have is a discourse built on the basis that before the Lord, we are all on our knees, shoulder to shoulder, saved only by his blood.
What the media talks to you like is, you're down there.
You can't understand anything.
You're an idiot.
You need us to protect you.
You can feel it in their timbre and their tone.
Find the dogman in you.
Find the instinct in you that can feel it, that can intuit it.
Find that part of you that, like, this is bullshit.
This is bullshit.
These people are absolute liars.
And with their hysteria around Trump, they expose more and more the deep, deep embedded roots of their own deception and corruption.
And the Catholic bishops of New York State said, there is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President, adding, do not mock us.
The Vatican declined to comment.
Cardinals continue their daily congregations and will enter the conclave Wednesday.
We will find the best person to succeed.
Back in the US, the president is also defending his tariffs, saying the risk of a recession is worth it.
If you think about St. Peter for a minute, St. Peter, like the whole way, I'll cut that Giza's ear off, I'll kill someone, like, shat himself, shat himself when the Lord was dragged off to trial in chains, when they wanted to and indeed killed him.
Peter couldn't hold it.
He couldn't hold it together.
That's the person that is the pontiff.
That is the person that is the rock.
Unless you acknowledge our fundamental brokenness, you cannot receive our essential light.
And they do not acknowledge our fundamental brokenness because they believe through rationalism, through calculation, through mental mathematics, you can achieve perfection.
You cannot.
They're as broken as you.
This is something I understood before I was a Christian, before I was anything.
I understood them lot who think they're better than you.
Ain't better than you.
You've been trained to think, oh, look at these leaders.
Look at their suits.
Look at the mahogany halls of power.
Look at their velvet drapes and their high chairs and their coronations and their grandeur.
They must be better than me.
No!
They are liars.
They are thieves.
They are deceivers.
And we have direct access to divine light through which we can confront them and overcome them.
I ain't better than you.
You ain't better than me.
They ain't better than us.
Time to rise up and confront.
But not from a place of partisan tribalism.
From deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, all-consuming truth.
Whole and holy.
All the time you are one.
You are never separate from the Holy One.
That's why you can't sneak off and do something dumb or stupid.
And yet you will.
And yet you will fall again.
But he will forgive you.
It is done already.
The divine, psychedelic, ever-present Christ is what you need.
And as you meekly make your way to the sepulchre, to the chamber, to the tomb yourself, then you will know that you turned away from the one thing that could have saved you.
And for what?
For some scream?
For some ice cream?
For some dream?
For something that doesn't happen?
It doesn't mean anything at all.
Trump is creating the chaos out of which we will rise.
The risk of a recession is worth it in an interview with NBC News.
There are many people on Wall Street who say this is going to be the greatest windfall ever happened.
And that's my question, the long term.
Is it okay in the short term to have a recession?
Look, yeah, everything's okay.
What we are, I said, this is a transition period.
I think we're going to do fantastically.
The president returns to Washington Sunday night.
Bradley Blackburn, CBS News, New York.
On Truth Social Saturday, President Trump also took aim at judges, he says, aren't allowing the deportation of, quote, criminals, including murderers.
He wrote, quote, this is not what our founders had in mind.
You can't just throw that around when it's convenient.
This is not what our founders had in mind.
Have a look at everything.
Is that what our founders had in mind?
They said, keep renewing it.
When you have a constitution and a nation, if you will continually protect it, you have to continually reborn again.
As a nation, you have to continually be born again as a constitution.
You have to continually be born again.
You can't rely on aristocracy or hegemony or hierarchy unless that hierarchy is underwritten by sublime and supreme forces.
That's just what I think, though.
Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
is Cardinal Dolan of New York, presumably condemning Donald Trump.
No.
No.
Can you say that in English?
He asked me about the president appearing as the Pope.
I hope he didn't have anything to do with that.
Are you offended by that?
Well, you know, it wasn't good.
I respect tradition, but we're all just people.
Like, Peter was a person.
Judas was a person.
John the Baptist was a person.
Christ is the son of the living God.
The rest of us, we're all down here trying to work it out.
Whether you're a Muslim or a Jew or an atheist, I'm a Christian.
I follow Jesus Christ.
He is the King.
He is the Master.
I'm down here with you.
I'm not better than you.
Sometimes I might think I'm better than you.
Sometimes I might think I'm worse than you.
Then I wake up from that illusion and remember that I'm just another child of God, saved by Him.
And in gratitude of that grace, I will work hard to live how I know He wants me to work hard.
Because they wrote it down!
Here are some various other amusing memes.
In a way, J.D., Elon have to take third place to he that may be announced by the orange smoke.
Let's have a look at the claim of blasphemy being made, but we live in a blasphemous society.
We live in a pagan society.
What I mean by pagan society is the things that are...
Offered to you as sacred are profane and inverted, i.e.
Bonnie Blue travelling around grim places in the UK offering to fuck you in a car park.
That's your God now.
Unless you are going to deliberately align yourself with one true God, you will be sucked into the pit by Luciferian falsehoods which tell you that that which goes in the mouth or up the butt can somehow save you.
Here's Andy Oster.
I'm old enough to remember when every single Christian would be outraged to see something like this, so disrespectful, so blasphemous.
So what it is, is people have their opinion and their perspective, and then they just try to back it up with information.
I know that because of the situation I'm in.
I know it all too well and viscerally.
People that don't like me can now, instead of saying I don't like him, can go, he's a rapist!
Well, that don't make it true.
I know the actual truth.
I know the truth, of course, because I was there.
And because I remember, and I know what I was and what I wasn't, and I'm aware that I'm a broken sinner, but I'm also aware that I'm entirely...
Innocent of these charges.
And anyone who's paying attention to my story, and you don't need to, there's so much more important things going on in the world.
You and your own challenge is so much more important than any version of cultural artefacts spewed out to control, condemn you, used to legitimise the idea that you should shut up and listen to mainstream media and vote for who they tell you to vote for and buy what they tell you to buy and die when they tell you to die.
But I know that they use information in clever ways.
They create a mode.
And the intention of that is to disempower you.
In particular, when they tell you, this is to empower you for too long, vulnerable people.
We have to hear the voices of the victim.
Well, the mainstream media, the mainstream, you're out of your fucking minds.
You're out of your fucking minds.
The Times, the television, these people want you dead.
They see you as chattel.
They see you as slaves.
They hate you.
They are disgusted by ordinary working people.
They want you in chains.
They want you dead.
If they could have you executed and replaced by AI, they would do it.
The minute that Chinese robot starts fucking behaving itself, they'll find a way.
You know, we should castrate people because of this.
Is it really wrong to do this?
They'll find a way because they have no virtue.
They have no principle.
They don't believe that you're made in God's image.
They don't believe...
They don't believe that you have access to divine light.
They don't believe that you are as valuable as anybody else.
They don't have any beliefs at all except the kind of all-consuming selfishness that flourishes when you remove God.
Okay, now this is a brilliant piece of writing actually, much of which I disagree with and we are going to...
Give you that analysis.
We're going to close the subject on this Trump thing.
And after that, oh my God, we've got stuff about what's going on in the UK.
Reopening.
Alcatraz, so much to discuss.
Tucker Carlson's kind post about me.
Many, many things.
But before I hear 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 won't back down.
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-do's, 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.
The free speech-hating 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 Mr. A. Hitler.

I'm going to make another version of the advert because it makes me feel a bit sick when I keep showing that guy wiping his butt and his hand like that.
That's pretty messed up.
Russell Brand squeezed his nipple on Rumble, says Rich Gwynn.
Yeah, it's not good.

Is he live?
Is that true?
Is Trump live somewhere?
Because we can do that.
We can do that.
If Trump's live somewhere, we'll go check that out right now.
I want to finish this Pope meme thing.
Listen, if you're watching us next, baby, click the link in the description.
We're going to do some brilliant analysis from this article.
By Daniel Pinchbeck, who's a left-wing, I guess culturally left-wing writer.
Let me know what you think about this.
It's interesting.
It's interesting.
If you're on Rumble, we'll be there for a little while longer.
If you're on Rumble Premium, we might do another half hour, 40 minutes.
Hello, Russell.
Can I send you my book of essays?
Of course you can.
Of course you can.
I'd love your book of essays, mate.
I'd love them.
Okay?
Rumble's about to take off like a rocket.
Buy stock.
Yep, you've got to buy stock, baby.
You've got to buy.
I don't really understand things like that, and I don't think ultimately the answer is wealth.
But, hey, if that's the way it's going, get yourself some stock.
Okay, so listen, this is some analysis on the Trump Pope trolling that I think you'll be very interested to hear.
Because iconoclasm...
The idea of denigrating images is an interesting artistic notion.
For example, think about the Sex Pistols, that great band from my country, and their safety pin through the nose of Her Majesty the Queen, i.e.
making an iconic image owned by them.
Other interesting examples of iconoclasm in the culture include the denigration of popular heroes posthumously.
Say Martin Luther King, who, by my reckoning, is one of the greatest people of the last century, when people start going, yeah, but it was always fucking other birds.
I'm like, oh, come on, man, of course.
The guy was under a lot of pressure.
I mean, he wasn't perfect.
He was a fallen man.
Of course he shouldn't have been having affairs behind his wife's back.
Of course he shouldn't, but...
I don't know, maybe that dude, seeing how we knew the CIA were trying to nut him off and the FBI were trying to string him up and he was trying to find ways to represent an extremely important cause in complex ways, putting his life and the lives of others at risk.
Maybe that was...
Pressure!
Oh, Martin Luther King.
Oh, what about Gandhi?
Oh, he slept in a bed with his nieces.
Well, that's, you know, less than ideal.
But he did throw off the shackles of the British Empire and revivify the spirit of the Indian people, and he was trying his best to awaken people to their own sacred relationship with God.
Right?
Right?
So that's another form of iconoclasm.
Now, when Trump does something, like goes, I shall be an ex-pope, what does he mean?
Why does he do it?
What is his intention?
Let's ask those questions of ourselves and one another and get ourselves a little bit more wide awake.
This is Daniel Pinchbeck who's on Substack.
I feel that something desperately needs to be said about Trump posting an AI-generated image of himself as the new Pope on Truth Social yesterday.
But what can we say at this point?
By desecrating the image of the papacy just after the death of the last Pope, Trump shows us that he considers nothing, no tradition, no office, no moral principle untouchable to his will or his caprices.
He drops the image just after he made a sad spectacle of himself.
Right, now listen to this.
This is great stuff.
Now do you believe that the papacy is sacred?
Generally speaking, I read Daniel Pinchbeck's stuff a lot, and I would say he's broadly speaking a representative of neoliberalism and a kind of pagan culture that might look to find personal awakening through, for example, plant medicine, ayahuasca, things that I'm really interested in.
I'm interested in the sacred.
I'm interested in transcendence.
I'm interested in new political models that break down corrupt institutions.
But I don't think, up to this point, Daniel Pinchbeck...
Has cared about the sanctity of the office of the Pope.
I think he probably has thought it's ridiculous and there's a load of paedophile scandals in there and that Jesus is a fairy story.
I don't know.
I've not read everything he wrote.
But let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
Now check this line out though.
This is where it gets interesting to me.
The only world leader who appeared in a blue suit...
That's not true, is it?
You know that, right?
Fact check.
You know that there were loads of world leaders and people in blue suits at the Pope's funeral.
You've seen that now.
Isn't it extraordinary that Trump coined the phrase fake news that's become a kind of neologism that's so embedded in our language now that everyone kind of thinks they invented it.
He said it.
Do you remember?
Fake news.
He used to say that stuff all the time.
Extraordinary.
He wasn't snoring at the Pope's funeral.
That was a mistake.
That's also fake news.
So already, paragraph in, this critique is flawed and exposed as flawed.
But that don't mean there's not some interesting and brilliant points to be made later.
Let's listen to him.
Trump's Pope post is an audacious form of trolling, one that subliminally reinforces the dominance-based cult dynamic he has instituted with his followers.
Including his political and religious supporters.
This cult dynamic has ratcheted up in recent weeks.
A trajectory should deeply concern us all.
Do you think that's true?
Do you think, let me know in the comments and chat, that Trump and MAGA is a kind of cult movement?
A cult movement necessarily worships its leader.
Its leader is beyond the law.
But do you believe that's true of Trump in a way that it wasn't true of Biden, for example?
Now when we look back at what went on in the elections of 2020, what went on in the COVID period, The problem was so many people on the left were reluctant to stand up during COVID.
COVID was a time of political awakening.
The movements that have come out of the pandemic period are authentic anti-establishment movements, and many people on the left were too sort of like, let's put a mask on!
Take the vaccine!
It was a time when some wheat and chaff got separated during that time.
And it's very hard.
In a minute, he's going to make the point.
This is brilliant, actually.
In a minute, the point gets made in this article that what a cult leader does is lures you so deep into the catacombs of a very particular and esoteric belief that you almost can't walk back.
Imagine if you were a member of, I don't know, that cult where they all killed themselves in Alibop, or that Alibop comet, or if you were in the Jim Jonestown massacre.
Now, before the mass suicides, you're probably so embedded in weird practices that it's sort of hard for you to go, actually, I think I'm going to go back and work in Chick-fil-A again now.
That was crazy.
What were we all thinking?
Or if you're a Nazi, look how difficult it is for people that were in Germany under Nazism to be redeemed.
How hard is it Do you know people that took all of the shots?
Do you know people that took all of the shots, that wore a mask all the time?
How are they on that?
Normally, you know what's generally happened is we've separated in the camps.
People that just went, I'm not fucking doing that.
Or people that had one or two because they had to or had to lie about it to travel or had to lie about it for work.
There aren't that many people, are there?
Let me know in the comments and chat.
I took every single one of those vaccines and guess what?
Since I've subsequently learned that the clinical trialing data was bogus and unreliable, I've subsequently learned that they did start it in that laboratory, not where Anthony felt.
He told us at the time that there are numerous side effects and we're only beginning to learn the full impact of adverse injury.
They kept that shit down.
They ran a ticker along the bottom of the screen telling it was the worst thing.
That's a cult, mate!
That's a cult you want to be aware of, the COVID cult.
People were conditioned into staying in their own.
Trump's not done nothing like that, has he?
He's not gone out and said, I know he was president at the advent of it and warp speed and all that kind of stuff.
I'm aware of it.
I'll pay your attention.
I was wide awake during that entire time, thankfully, and I ain't got myocarditis or any dizzy spells because something in me told me, don't trust these...
Fuckers.
And what that was was life and God.
Because, I don't know about you, but when I was at school, hmm, this is some shady shit.
Or when I was getting arrested when I was a kid, hmm, this seems like some shady shit.
Now, as a saved man, I recognise what was going on is human beings and human institutions were taking holy authority.
And the pandemic was a great example of it.
Look at the people that backed it.
Soros, Bill Gates, all that crap.
Look at the celebrities that turned up on TV.
That's a cult.
That's a cult.
That's a global cult.
Anything you consider to be normal is up to be considered as potentially part of the cult.
What does the Super Bowl mean?
What does the Super Bowl halftime show mean?
What is the messaging of it?
All of these things.
Stay wide, wide, wide awake.
That don't mean you have to become a total ascetic, that you have to denounce, renunciate, get away from all the culture.
It might mean, for some of us, some of us can't handle it at all.
We're easily stimulated.
But what you have to know is what you might consider to be normal might be exactly where power is hiding.
This is what you can awaken to.
This is what you must learn to see.
Trish McLeod, I'm in Russell Brand's cult.
You're safe now.
If I'd have started a cult before I got the shit kicked out of me once more by life, you might have been in danger because I was still worshipping myself when I was running them festivals and everything.
I thought I was still the main man.
I ain't nothing.
I'm the same as you.
I'm not better than you.
I'm not worse than you.
I'm thankful to be in the position I'm in.
For all that it costs me, I love it.
I consider it a pure joy to face trials.
A pure joy.
