[Music] future hello welcome to the Republican National Convention where I’m doing stayfree with Russell Brand you’ll see around me these are some of the people that sponsor this experience posative for example that’s a typee of treat for your dog 1775 that’s a type of coffee celebrating a revolution that I came out of rather badly and with me just here is my new friend Andrew claven who is you’re too relaxed relaxed I was going to tell you to relax I thought I better ask Andrew clav to relax but then I saw you look like you’re about to go asleep I was going to doze off yeah I’m tired you know you seem like the very sort of person who could get a job guarding the perimeter at a trump rally you see that the very sort of person who wouldn’t notice whether or not a root was a roof was too SL it was too slopy it was too I mean you can’t get up there I I kept sliding off they didn’t cover this in training gravity he’s pulling me that way I know it’s Mission Impossible the slope roof what do you think of have you ever been at a Republican National Convention before this is my first time is it blowing your I mean don’t take this the wrong way tiny mind my tiny mind is a little bit blown you know it’s a lot of people I know here a lot of people are recognize what worries me Andrew is the continual power dynamics and the obsession and infatuation with power who’s on the way up who’s on the way down am I good enough mom am I good enough why did they choose JD fance well maybe because he overcame the odds yes well he’s good I like I like him he was my choice he was my choice yeah I would have definitely gone with JD Vance he’s smart he actually and he actually said he’s got that nice beard yes and people keep saying he attacked Trump and that’s true but he didn’t attack what Trump stood for he said I agree with what Trump stands for he just thought you know he was he was he was meshed in that people can change their mind yes and he was a mesed in that East Coast theer Co they were loving his book and everything and youve liberalism and they loved his book hey Jenna will you show look over there Dan Bonino is over there it’s always worth knowing that just over there is Dan Bonino like you could kill us at any second we we every so often I just check in because knowing as I do yeah come back to us knowing as I do that he has the ability to kill us if dorino doesn’t kill you it’s simply his choice he can kill you if he if he wants he can I love you it’s like no it is like the Bonino Army is an army of light not luciferian light the light of love thank you for bringing me into their attention we we live as long as Dan says we can that’s basically it we’re living here by his um by his grace now look I’ve got a lot of things to ask you about firstly let’s talk a little bit about this assassination attempt in a minute we’ got Ron Johnson coming on the show if you’re watching us now we’ve got Ron Johnson coming up we got Marjorie Taylor green coming up and now we are with the beautiful and adorable Andrew claven and I want to talk to you in particular about the atmosphere here in the sort of immediate aftermath of this assassination attempt nether you and I are both Republican National Convention virgins do you feel that you’re being um put attacked for even being here or do you think that the people that follow you are quite happy I’m no I’m not being attacked for being here I’ve been attacked first of all I’ve been attacked for so long by so many people that it wouldn’t matter but no this is basically where the action is right and it’s where Trump is and he’s the center of attention and that’s the way it should be how do you feel about being around these power dynamics the power dynamics that exist in media and furthermore the power dynamics that obviously exist within politics do do you feel s somewhat corrupted by it yes in fact almost everybody because first of all they wouldn’t be here if they weren’t into those power dynamics they enter they enter it I got into it very late so I don’t give a damn but how did you how did you get into it I was I’m all my life have been a writer of novels and screenplays and and books and somehow I just started talking about I I I lived in England for 7 years what in in the ’90s where in London whereabouts in South Ken what exact bit what was the exact street was your address what was your post code not zip code post code cuz that’s what we call it I don’t remember my post code I was right I was right near that cemetery on the uh I was in CERN Court you know Co Court I do actually princess Dy lived when she was M Dy God Rest her Eternal Soul because she’s a woman that was hunted and uh condemned and attacked by the Legacy Media you know those kind of odd secular sacrifices that take place you know that there are certain figures and maybe we even saw one you know in the attempted Trump assassination people are obviously going to see this as a near miraculous event it is a near miraculous it’s a near miraculous because of the head turn yep yep and you know if if God had meant for him to go he’d be gone there’s no question it’s like Bonino is it exactly if God says dead you’re dead if Bonino says I’m going to kill you how you going to stop him with a mop a mop just grab something from nearby like Jason Bourne oh no yeah he’s killed me anyway banino can turn a mop into an AR15 of course he could he could turn that into like a wooden AR-15 which is the the weapon of the moment of put it back together that’s it mate I want to ask you this yes I want to ask you this do you see then as I you convert to Christianity at the same age as me 49 yes really in fact I was just 48 oh is that right I was just 48 right when I converted to Christianity and but I’m from a sort of a secular background where I had no connection to our Lord and Savior Jesus you are from you’re racially and religiously Jewish is that correct well I was a secular Jew I had no relationship to God either and I basically was involved in that Society of let’s call them intellectuals politely where to talk about God was to be nuts was to be kind of crazy and weird and and maybe maybe even conservative which would be even worse and and so it took a long time for me to Break Free Break Free from the sort of conditioning and and how Christianity is betrayed as a kind of um mad cap slightly illc conceived ideology fashion superstitious and did you find now I found about two weeks three weeks after I was baptized my wife who knows me better than anyone turned to me and said you’re a totally different person you’re so so much more Serene and so much more calm have you experienced some of that yeah a lot of people are saying that the Lord is going to work in me that I’m changing from within now I’ve been on a spiritual journey for a while because I’m in recovery from the old addiction to drugs and alcohol and so that’s been a process of continual change but this idea of Faith Andrew of of moving back to a position of faith has been very relevant while present at the Republican National Convention precisely because of all of the Power a good many people are Christians here and there’s so much talk of Christianity and so much warmth I’ve noticed people s talking to me about our Lord and talking to me about my faith but also you know even Within Myself and with other people I sense the ongoing power dynamics the Allure of power who is it that in this moment is in the ascendancy who is it that is tarnished and you know one of the things I was talking to the people from CPAC earlier that’s important isn’t it CPAC isn’t that one of the most influential lobbying groups for young people yeah so I was talking to them and I said what though are we doing about inequality in particular economic inequality and like our Lord and savior serving the poorest and most vulnerable people but then sadly a bad thing happened because a golf buggy arrived and it was only enough room for me to get in it and I told them all [ __ ] off so I thought hold on a minute these system is of inequality it turns out that you’ve got to practice it in your actual life abct don’t do that that’s no no you don’t want to go down that road what do you think about that with what do you when you in a place like the Republican National Convention and you have some concerns that it’s run ultimately by corporatism and maybe even Global interests that are Transcendent of sovereignty do you feel like well everyone’s talking about Christianity but where is the Christianity you know I I tell you why I don’t feel that way the one thing the one thing Jesus never said was that the world was going to become a better place he never said make the world a better place no the world remains exactly as it is he said in the world you will have trouble and so we it’s our job to kind of move through these situations that are the way the world works as an influence of Christ we just but like what about do not think that our function here is to bring his kingdom to Earth no he’s doing that we’re just to be nice and be grateful not to be not to be nice but to in fact extend that idea into the world but it’s not going to you the idea is not going to hit the world and suddenly a ball of light will happen and there won’t be any politics there won’t be any capitalism that’s not the way it’s going to work and it it never has worked that way right it’s been a long time and it’s it actually what we see is the cycles of history continue the methods of History continue politics power life death war they all continue but we can actually bring into the world this enough light that even if you get one person even if one person is brought around to the light of God that’s a big that’s an infinite Victory all right so if you’re watching this right now please get brought round to the light of God because then I’ll have done my work for the day let us know in the chat if you have any comments for for beloved Andrew claven and of course we’ve got Ron Johnson Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin coming on who from the get-go was suspicious about covid and who believes that politics of course can be a conduit and vessel for the greatness of our Lord and savior I wonder though Andrew when you say something like you know we’re just going to be happy to work on one person a one at a time basis and and that the world has always had its rhythms but it sometimes sounds like the kind of nihilism and futility that materialists rationalists individualists and nihilists have no I’m not I’m certainly not a nihilist in any way I fig but but I do think that the the promise the this idea that the world is going to become a better place and the world does the world has become a better place because of Christianity it has infus used itself into our culture to the point where it’s almost become invisible which was one of the problems we’re suffering from you know I mean that it’s it’s good uh its power for good has actually filtered into the entire Society so that we don’t see it anymore and we think it’s just there this is just the way people are it’s just the way they just give Women rights they’re just nice to one another that’s not true the world is much much different than it was on the day Christ died and that is because of his power and his influence so it does work but it doesn’t work in the sense that suddenly you’re going to turn off the human nature human nature is broken people are sinful that’s going to continue to happen and the enemy is at work in US Andrew the enemy is at work in us through sin and is always an it’s always an option now in the figure of Donald Trump we have I suppose a relatively certainly in the eyes of those that adore him a somewhat Messianic figure and after recent events as we’ve already touched upon there’s a likelihood that it will be further conveyed as a kind of divine intervention when we talk about the the transformation of say JV Vance not transformation the change of his perspective he was a never Trumper now he’s as trumpy as it’s possible to be VP to Trump what do you think is the perspective that the people that loathe Trump continue to maintain vulgarian authoritarian hitlerian dictator how is it that that that that perspective is maintained by do you think and what do you think is the legitimacy of this you know almost ongoing hysterical demon is there any legitimacy in it like for example some you hear Tucker talk and he goes you know he makes mistakes Donald Trump’s not perfect he makes mistakes you know that kind of what do you think is the fallibility and what do you think is the hysteria well first of all if you ask some of these people what has Trump done that’s racist what has he done that’s fascist where’s the Hitler comparison come from they get very agitated because there is no place where that connection can be actually made however Trump has one thing that he does that drives people crazy which is that he does not care what the the main main stream what you know they call it the claricy the upper class people who set the opinions who run the media who run Hollywood who run the places where cool is made cool he doesn’t care and that drives them insane it’s dangerous because all they do is silence people everything they do is to tell you to shut up your racist shut up your sexist shut up it’s always a a way of keeping you from saying you know what you’re doing is actually hurting people and it hurts the least of people you know who suffers from left-wing policies it’s always the poor it is always the it’s incredibly that this new type of authoritarianism that is lacker and shellacked in compassion is what startles and scares me most Andrew that it’s not like the Bold authoritarianism that we were used to a century ago where people say we know what’s right you don’t know what’s right we are going to use power to impose our will no this is like we are going to protect you we’re going to help you we’re going to protect these vulnerable people but you say it doesn’t seem like vulnerable people are being assisted at all it seems like power is coalescing around a set of uh either corporate and Commercial interests and in particular State bureaucracies and that seems to be its function why are they using compassion in this way well you know CS Lewis said that there’s nothing worse than a compassionate dictator a compassionate Tyrant because they you can never convince them that they’re actually a tyrant they always think they’re doing the good thing and I think that’s important to the left I think virtue look because we’re sinful we always ashamed we always have this element of Shame we’re always trying to convince ourselves and other people that we’re virtue virtuous I mean listen if you listen to the way people talk I would say maybe 75% of the words coming out of their mouth are about look I’m a good guy I’m a good I’m a good guy you know and I think the that is it isn’t it yeah and it’s so liberating when you find Christ and you can say I’m not a good guy a good guy I failed I’m a sinner I’m redeemed that conversation is over basically oh that’s a relief is it yeah I have to pretend to be nice cuz that is always it I care a lot more about vulnerable people than you do you don’t care about them you’re bad I should probably be in charge cuz you’re a racist that’s right so let us be in charge get get in your house and you cannot say oh you know the thing that you’re doing doesn’t work it’s not effective because then you’re racist you can’t say oh this is giving you more power but it’s actually taking Freedom away from people because then you’re racist and now that we’ve gotten to the point where they’re butcher sexually butchering children because they think they can make them turn them into another sex it’s kind of demonic you don’t think that that is about compassion you don’t think that is about these children have got an inherent desire or a psychic connection to an idea of gender that is transcendent of their biological identity and we have to protect them you don’t think that’s what it is I think it’s insane and de demonic yeah it’s insanely demonic can I ask you please Andrew about we we’ve discussed Freedom a little and a minute ago I can’t remember whether we were on the show or not forgive me it might have been before cuz we were talking just like normal people weren’t we I know almost we existed before this happened that’s strange to say right and we were carrying on talking and being ourselves during that time well during that time when we were speaking as free human beings and Christians to one another I said that Andrew Breitbart said that thing that uh that technology is no that might even politics is Downstream from culture and I think that politics is Downstream of technology so with with a principle like free speech and freedom how do you think that you can even assert and exert the type of control that we’re discussing now that we have this kind of Technology where fully immersive communicative systems are already in action I think this this is exactly what almost everything that’s happening is about it is about that the internet gave everyone a voice a democratized speech and that took control away from what in this country was three essential networks all saying the same thing all taking the same attitudes so now you have anybody with an opinion can say things and they start to say well wait a minute wait a minute we’re The Gatekeepers you know my feeling is you know what the people will work it out the people will figure out let let’s hear the different opinions let them talk it out and let them argue it out but the fact is in the last I don’t know say 20 years the Crackdown on speech the Crackdown on freedom and communication has been almost as powerful as The Liberation through the internet they hate it don’t they they hate it they hate it they hate that they’re not in charge anymore that these El what does that say on there off YouTube time out Ron Johnson Ron Johnson Senator Ron Johnson who over there Jenna would you show the viewers Ron Johnson Ron Johnson the senator yes is just over there very kindly waiting excuse me in this apple Ron Johnson and I met yesterday at our hotel don’t worry there’s nothing else to that story we had the briefest conversation this is not old school politics where it led to a terrible Scandal Ron Johnson and I had a brief conversation and we’re going to resume that conversation in a second and we’ll be talking about well I’ve got a lot of things to talk about in particular the pandemic era if you’re watching us on YouTube we’re going to leave now but we’re going to continue oh got apple on my finger I’m going to continue talking to Andrew claven for a little while then we’re going to be talking to Ron Johnson and we’re going to be talking to marjerie Taylor green and Dan Bono’s over there and actually over the course of our conversation Andrew I’ve become incredibly confident and I’ve decided that I’m going to take him on in hand to hand come back I think I want to watch that it’ll only be a couple of seconds it’s going to be brief it’s going to be brief I would have thought it will be a brief assault before Dan Bonino asserts his authority click
