Insights
Revealing plans for war with Iran is significant
Similar to Julian Assange revealing war crimes of the Iraq war, the leaked audio and classified documents suggest a plan to go to war with Iran.
Media bias undermines Trump
The media uses classified documents to undermine Trump, not because they care about his views but because he admits wanting to take oil from Syria and Venezuela.
Ukraine's proxy war and diplomatic alternatives
Ukraine has the right to resist invasion, but there are diplomatic alternatives that could have avoided and stopped the war. The Minsk Accords and Russia's proposals in December 2021 could have ended the war, but they were opposed or not discussed by Ukraine, US, and NATO.
Censorship and free speech
Censorship laws preventing free speech are being implemented simultaneously in multiple countries. Censorship should focus on championing Julian Assange as an important journalist being persecuted.
Media's obsession with Trump
The media's obsession with Trump leads to ignoring substance in stories like his revealing a plan to attack Iran. The media supports war mongering and cares more about ratings than stopping wars.
RFK Jr.'s views on Ukraine proxy war
RFK Jr.'s views on the Ukraine proxy war are courageous and clear, but his stance on Israel-Palestine is problematic for progressives. RFK Jr., Cornell West, and Marion Wilmson are challenging the current government in the primaries.
Importance of staying free
The host emphasizes the importance of staying free and encourages viewers to press the red button to join.
Upcoming episodes and exclusive content
Upcoming episodes will cover conspiracy theories, the censorship industrial complex, and interviews with Matt Taibi, Michael Schellenberger, and Jack Dorsey. Exclusive content will be available for locals members.
Growing frustration with Biden government
There is growing frustration with the Biden government's oversight of the disastrous proxy war in Ukraine. Viewers are encouraged to stay for another 15 minutes on Rumbles and ask questions about the news.
Clamor to attack Iran
There is a clamor to attack Iran, and it's odd that we have to rely on people like Trump for opposition. U.S. media lacks introspection and cares more about their agenda than facts.
