All right, welcome Back to the Aaron Day Show. We have a very special guest today, James Corbett. And uh in the interest of time, we're just going to jump right in on a very important topic uh and website and video uh called Libertas Earth. And a lot of people might not be familiar with this. I I learned about this through Ernie Hancock. Ernie told me that this exact video called the philosophy of liberty is what sent you down the whole rabbit hole back in 2007 even you know before the Corbett report. Is that true? And and if so what did it actually change in how you saw things? >> Yeah, let me tell you the origin story here. Um, I wouldn't say this is what

sent me down the rabbit hole in general, but it is what specifically sent me down uh the political philosophy rabbit hole. Um, that eventually ended up with me declaring myself quite proudly and embracing the term anarchist. Oh my god. Um, but that was a multi-year process that really started, I think, well, presumably actually started even in my youth, but but a significant portion of that journey was encountering this video. And I believe it was around 2006 when as people who know my origin story might know it was in 2006 that I moved into a new apartment here in Japan where I had an internet connection in my home for the first time in years and reconnecting online. Suddenly I was in

this universe of YouTube and Google video and things like this at that time that was providing not instantaneous 24/7 access to whatever you want to watch whenever you want to watch it. And me being the politicallyincclined kind of person that I was, started watching a bunch of documentaries and things along those lines. And it wasn't long before I started encountering 9/11 truth and things like that. But I think it wasn't until I saw the philosophy of liberty video that I really had the penny drop moment of connecting a number of things that I'd seen and felt intuitively throughout my life but never had an adequate vocabulary for. And specifically, I believe it was in a high

school social studies class that I first encountered at least a summary of John Lock, maybe a short excerpt of some John Lock writing and thinking, well, that sounds about right. So, essentially, you have the liberty to to do as you please as long as you that liberty doesn't infringe on other people's ability to do what they please. And obviously, there's a lot of gray area there and adjudication, but the general principle seemed about right to me. who has the right to step in and stop me from from interacting voluntarily and consensually with other consenting adults in whatever way I feel like? No one. No one has that right. And so that always kind of intuitively resonated with me. But it

wasn't until I saw this video that it really connected it into something of a more totalizing political philosophy. And I realized we could spend an hour easily here talking about this video. But I would highly suggest anyone who hasn't actually watched the video, just go to liberttos.ear right now. Pause this conversation if you have to or whatever. But go to libertas. Watch this video. It is 8 minutes long. So absolute worstc case scenario, you watch an 8-minute video and decide that it's not applicable to you or you don't like it or you don't get it and you move on with your day. No harm, no foul. best possible scenario might be something like mine where you

watch an 8-minute video and you know decades later you're still talking about it because of how important it is. And we can get into the specifics of what it is about and why it resonated with me so much. But at any rate, yeah, it's an important part of my my formation story as a as a young political analyst. >> Terrific. Yeah. So before we go further, I'm going to actually play the video uh right now and then James and I will be back to uh to go through it in more detail. [music] Heat. Heat. [music]

>> Heat. Heat. [music] Heat. Heat. [music] >> [music]

>> Okay. >> And now we're back. All right. So that's the video. 8 minutes, no host, no narrator, just uh text and music. And u that's what did it to James in 2007. So So let's start right where we left off. Um so you've probably seen this video hundreds of times by now. Um sitting here today, is there any single frame or line in there that still stops you? the the I think what immediately captured my attention when I first encountered this and what I still think is quite ingenious is the way that the author of this philosophy of liberty who we can talk about more later but uh the way the author encapsulated John Lock's idea of life liberty and property which of

course got summarized in declaration of independence as life liberty and pursuit of happiness but life liberty and property is that phrase that we've heard about but this really encapsulates it in a way that makes intuitive sense and follows from one very basic logical proposition that everyone believes to another to another until you start to get the sense of the the broader picture. Specifically, of course, the opening of this video, the principle of the philosophy of liberty is based on the principle of self ownership. And I know certain lefties get all uncomfortable with the idea of ownership of any kind, let alone self ownership. Does that mean you can sell yourself? Do

you believe in slavery, etc., etc.? Okay, whatever. It's a loaded term, so don't use that term. But the the very basic idea would be very simply uh explained to anyone. If Erin, if we were in the same room, I would put my hand on your shoulder and say, "Who owns this person? Who owns this life? Who gets to decide what happens to this person?" And you would say, "Well, it's my it's me. It's my life. I do." And if you agree with that sentiment, then everything else in this video follows. And what I thought was quite ingenious and what what hooked me right away because I was a philosophy major in sorry a philosophy minor in university and always have read deeply and been interested in

philosophy. So I'm not one who suffers lightweight philosophical arguments easily. What hooked me right from the beginning with this was the way that uh the the author of this philosophy of liberty took that idea of life, liberty and property and put it in the form of okay you own yourself. So you own your future, you own your present, and you own your past. And the future is your life. Because if you take someone's future away from them, you take their life away from them. If you take their present away from them, that means you're engaging them, putting them, locking them away, whatever. You're taking their liberty. If you take their past, that is taking their property,

which of course is the fruits of their life and their liberty. You invest your time and energy in what you do, and you acquire property justly that way. If your past is to well someone takes your property that is your past and that just that simple way of framing that okay future present past life liberty property I understand and it immediately clicked with me and got me interested in watching as again it continues to spin out one logical proposition to another. Yes, of course you have the right to select a leader for yourself if you so choose. But you do not have the right to impose a leader on anyone else against their will. How could you have such a

right? Yes, of course you have the right to defend yourself against the initiation of force or fraud against you. And of course, you can delegate that that uh right to anyone else. You can ask someone to defend you and they can say yes, I'll defend you, etc. Of course. but you don't have the right to initiate force or fraud against anyone else or or to ask other people to initiate force or fraud against anyone else. Again, all of these seemingly simple prepositions and that most people would agree with if they're presented in the right context, but they lead to a very large conclusion, namely that the entire system that we live under of representative democracy is

fundamentally flawed and goes against our own basic principles once they are actually exposed. So, to me, that's the beauty of this video. And it was that life, liberty, and property encapsulation that was what first hooked me on it. So, as a philosophy minor, are are these ideas that were not presented, I guess, when you were in a university setting? Because I will have to I have to admit, I was a a philosophy minor as well, and and u this wasn't the popular uh approach or these are not popular ideas within the academic setting. >> No. No. To be fair, I took a lot of 20th century European philosophy. I took a Markx class, etc., of course, because of course that was offered in the

philosophy department. Why not? But I never took a course on the philosophy of liberty or any anything that even really concentrated on that. So for me this was a uh something of a revelation. At any rate, as I say, I'd been exposed to lock and and Jefferson and people like that in the past, but I'd never deeply studied them and certainly not in an institutional academic way. Um I would have assumed that being in the US, I would assume Americans would be exposed to more of this type of philosophy in their education, but maybe not. Maybe not. And we can get more into that with where this act where this philosophy of liberty video actually comes from. >> Yeah, that's a great next question. So,

where did this who created this? When did they create it? What was what's the backstory here? >> All right, so people who are interested at libertas. Underneath once you start once you watch this video, there is a about this project tab and once you open that, you can get a video that uh I did with Ernest Hancock. We did a co-in who is a professor. well, now I believe retired professor of economics at uh a university in Hawaii, Hawaii Pacific University. and his story is that back in 1980 as a professor of economics in Hawaii and as he says probably the only Austrian economist, free market economist in the Pacific region, uh he was recruited by the uh the Libertarian

Party of Hawaii to start creating a series of 92 radio spots uh for the local allnews radio station. um just introducing people to some of the basic concepts of free markets and free people. And so he took that on and started producing these short uh segments around the concept. He decided to take the idea of Jonathan Guliver Guliver's travels, sorry. He he decided to take that idea Jonathan Swift's Guliver's travels and then put it in sort of a modern context, but someone learning about e economics through these travels that he's going on. So he created this character Jonathan Gullibible and um he created this series of stories introducing basic comments uh

uh concepts like the candlestick maker and petition and things like that from uh from Bastiat and and Hayek and Misus and introducing basic economic context concepts like that to a general audience and after he'd created a bunch of these at some point I I can't remember who but someone proposed well why don't we collect them together and publish them as a book So in 1989 they published a book of uh G Jonathan Gullibal's adventures don't I I the adventures of Jonathan Gullibible I believe is the name of the book. Um and again it's just a collection of those radio scripts. Fast forward a couple of years and Ken School is in the Soviet Union right at well in Russia right after the fall of

the Soviet Union right after the Iron Curtain collapsed and the Berlin Wall and all of that. So in that very interesting time when Russia is converting over from the Soviet system to its modern incarnation and he met a a tour guide who was extremely interested in this philosophy and found out about Ken school's work and was grilling him on it. Apparently he'd been interested in Ein Rand and reading that. So he was very very on board with these ideas. As it turns out, he this tour guide later went on to found some sort of grocery store chain in in Russia and is now apparently a billionaire. But anyway, at the time he was literally just a tour guide, but he proposed,

well, why don't we why don't we publish that book in Russian here in Russia for the Russian audience because hey, we're going through this incredible transition and people are trying to wrap their heads around the idea of not having the government literally telling them how to run their lives and how what to do with their entire lives. So I think people would uh would benefit from this type of information. So they ended up push publishing a uh that uh adventures of Jonathan Goldable in Russian right there at the the the dawn of the modern Russia. And because the Russian people were under decades, generations at that point of Soviet indoctrination, they didn't really even understand the

concept of property or liberty. some of these basic concepts that you know well the government tells us what to do the government taxes whatever the government just takes whatever they they decide to take every year and they give us what whatever is left over right how how does any of this work so uh they asked for that Russian edition of this book specifically for some sort of introduction that just lays it all out lays out this philosophy of liberty in as few words as possible and so took it upon himself to create this script this just a basic sort of introduction and that is the essentially the script that became this video. It was um so that that introduction to the Russian edition

of that book then became sort of the epilogue to all of the editions of the book. I think it's published in 58 languages around the world at this point. um and it became quite popular and I can't remember the exact details but at some point some enterprising young Liberty promoter took that script and decided to make it into a video and this was at the time I believe in the 1990s when flash animation was still like the cutting edge technology. So this is why it is essentially a stickman flash animation video. I mean, it looks positively antiquated, but actually, I think it probably works in its favor right now because we don't get distracted by the animation and

whatever. It's just it's just the concepts being presented. But anyway, so this was condensed from that introduction to the Russian edition of that book. And uh from there, that's where it took over and activists started taking it up. Ernest Hancock has been talking about it for decades. And it was really it was Ernie because we were um we have a conversation every couple of weeks on his uh declare your independence radio show. And it was at some point on that show where I was talking probably not for the first time about this video and saying, you know, that was such a great video. It was really formative. It really helped me. And Ernie was the one who said, you

know, we need to make this a thing. We need to get people get this in front of people once again because now is a good time for people to wake up to the philosophy of liberty. So it was really his project he spearheaded. Why don't we create this website libertas.ear easy to remember simple address to type in. You go there you get the video and oh you can get some more information about the video. So that's why this this website really exists right now. Great. Sorry, I cut out a little bit there. The connection's a little bit uh a little bit tenuous, but it did it did it did all come through there. Um, so so how long has this this particular website been up? It's it's been a few

months, right? >> Yes. I don't remember the exact date, but it's something like this is definitely within the last four or five months, I'd say. Yeah. >> So I So how well received is this? because I see just right on the site here that it's available in 54 languages uh and it's it's quite quite a list but um I mean I know talking to Ernie I guess this has been uh has been kind of blowing up. I mean what what are your what are your thoughts on on how this is being received? >> Well, in a sense this is this is a project that's been decades in the making. As I say the the original video was I believe created in the late 1990s and spread on the early internet there

in the early 2000s. That's how I encountered it. And even at that time it was already available in dozens of languages. And there is some sort of process. The person who made the original Flash animation had some process set up whereby if people wanted to um translate it into their own language they could create the subtitles or you know create the script and he'd put the subtitles like make the that version of the video not subtitles but in that language. And so there are already existed dozens of versions of this in various languages. And what the libertas.ear Earth website has done is basically collect this all into one place. So you give people this link and

basically almost any language that they speak they'll be able to find it here. Um so so far it's been an amazing resource. Um but we're still getting the word out about it and that's why we need the the support of people in your audience and other places. Uh if they are on board with this message, the best way you can support this message, you don't have to buy anything. You don't have to sign up for anything. Just spread the word about this video and libertas. But if you want to send them a direct link or send them a direct link to to it in their own language that you know, great. Just spread the word about this idea. >> Yeah. I notice at the bottom of the page

it says libertas.ear is to be an activist source and created to be copied, duplicated, plagiarized as needed. So that's that's not the typical disclaimer you see at the bottom. Um, >> but I think it it the important part here is that, you know, we want to get the word out and this is an important message. So, please uh please do share it. And this seems like the kind of thing that would get censored. Um, and because these are these are dangerous ideas and these are not necessarily popular ideas around the world. Um, so I, you know, I understand talking to Ernie that, uh, some care has been taken in terms of how to, to build the site so that it's censorship resistant. Do you

want to speak to that? >> Yes. Well, again, Ernie has been spearheading ways to be censorship resistant for years. He has been a big promoter of IPFS, the interplanetary file system, which is a essentially a harder to censor network um of uh file sharing that uses peer-to-peer technology to uh instead of middleman third party servers in in order to carry messages online. So, there have been uh ways like that of trying to essentially harden up against the censorship. And I should know something about that because as people may or may not know, my YouTube channel was completely scrubbed for a period of over three years. I can't remember exactly how long, but at

any rate, um, of course, I was a COVID thought criminal for daring to question the official COVID narrative. So they took my channel away from me in 200 I believe 21 and uh it was suddenly restored and returned to me back in 2025 and uh what changed exactly? Somehow I had gone from some I'd vaguely violated community guidelines somehow and then suddenly oh you know what we've reviewed and it turns out you didn't violate the community guidelines after all. Here's your channel back. Yay. Wonderful. Well, of course, that's how censorship works in this modern era. And even more, I think disturbing than the outright censorship of being able to take a channel down like that is the

algorithmic censorship whereby they can put their thumb on the scale and make something go viral or they can put their thumb on the other end of the scale and stop something from going viral. So when you're dealing with platforms like YouTube, you have to understand these are enemy information operations platforms that have been designed obviously to promote propaganda. And so you're probably probably not going to go viral unless it goes in the most absolutely organic way of mouth word to uh mouthto-mouth resuscitation. No, what am I saying? [laughter] you know, directly recommending it to your friends and family and directly sending links to people. That is the only way this type

of information will go viral on a platform like that. That's why, of course, this video is now, for example, the player that is embedded on libertas. Bitshoot, which at least is slightly less censorship happy than uh YouTube, shall we say? It's also on Odyssey, Rumble, etc. It's even on Facebook because why not? Why not get it out on every platform that we can? But know that there are the backups like IPFS and other such backups that exist for that possibility of censorship. And yes, absolutely censorship exists, outright censorship as well. I'd like to think that this video would fly under the radar of a lot of would-be tyrants out there, if only because it is innocuously, almost disarmingly

trit and charming looking. Oh, it's just a flash animation with just, you know, a bunch of philosophical text. What's the big deal? I would imagine a lot of uh people who are worried about these things, they'd probably be more interested in those influencers and memes and the things that are going viral with the youngans these days, but I I again I think that's actually the power of this video is that it is so innocuous in some ways. >> Yeah. And the music I I was playing it again in the background is I' I've seen this before, but I was playing it today and my wife was like, "Wait, I I've heard that music before." And of course, and then of course she's like, "What are

you working on?" She comes over and she's she of course has seen the video. So this is a it's it's a phenomenal video. Of course, >> it's funny if as you say that I'm thinking like if I if I just heard that music someday, I would instantly be able to put it back to this video. Again, I I mean, it's been 20 years since the first time I saw this video, but instantly that music was it's kind again, it works for me. And I know there are people who absolutely hate the music. So, I will advise them. There is actually, you know, you can mute the sound on whatever system you're playing it on if you want to and or there are versions out there that are online that have no music.

There are versions that have different music. There are versions that have voice over narration. However you want to in you know take this information and embibe it exists out there somewhere. And so the again the point of libertas.ear is not you have to go to libertas.ear and watch this one video in this one format in this one place in the one way that we tell you to. No, it's everywhere online. So however and wherever you find it in whatever form you encounter it that you like. That's the point. Get that get the word out about that. So if the music bothers you then don't worry. There are many, many other versions you could use. Personally, I really like the music for

this. I don't know why. It's just it's kind of hypnotic in a way. It just kind of blends in with the flash animation in a way that I find pleasing. >> Yeah. No, it is it is it is kind of calming music to have in the in the background, which is which is definitely nice. So, I see you have Farsy on here. Is that is that a new addition? That's interesting given what's going on right now in the world with uh Iran. It definitely is. I can't tell you when the Farsy edition was first uh put together. It might be a new edition. It might have already existed. But anyway, it certainly is interesting. And again, I think this speaks to the importance of a video like this. um for precisely

because as we saw from the origin story of this entire video and the script for this video, it came from that society that was trying to transition and trying to find a different way forward and trying to move away from an old oppressive system into something new. We need to understand this philosophy of liberty thing that you guys are talking about. Now, unfortunately, Russia did not become the libertarian anarchist paradise that some of us would have wished. Um, but at any rate, there are more people now who at least understand some of the basic precepts of this than there were before this was created. And in situations like this in Farsy, sure, now would be a good time to be

introducing the people of Iran to this type of information as well as everywhere else. Um, I'm not certainly sitting on a high horse thinking, well, we here in the West know all about liberty and we have to teach it to these poor backwards people. Of course not. Obviously, in fact, in some ways, the people in the West who believe that they're free because they live in their representative democracy are the most heavily propagandized people on the planet and definitely need to see this video. But having said that, it is a great tool to be using in all these types of places where people are obviously searching for for a different way forward. And this is what I would

like those people to be encountering rather than propaganda about whatever how the the bricks are going to fight against the the evil NATO oppressors and that's going to be your savior guys or something along those lines. No, no, no. If you don't have a fundamental understanding of the philosophy of liberty undergurtding your entire intellectual framework, then you will build upon that that uh foundation. Whatever you build upon that foundation will itself be flawed. It has to be from a firm foundation of intellectual rigor and an actual political philosophy that corresponds to reality, lived human reality. >> Yeah. Well, this needs to be dropped over Washington DC probably more than

anywhere at this point. Um, so there's a So, you know, there are no cookies, there's no database. I mean, this is a this is a, you know, a true a true censorship resistant site that isn't kind of tracking anything. Um, have you seen any uh non-English-speaking uh movements actually pick this up that that's been surprising where you you you've kind of been surprised where where these ideas have actually flourished? [snorts] So Ernie has the story I wasn't involved in this particularly. I didn't even know Ernie at the time, but he has the story of back during the Arab Spring back 2011ish to 2012ish. Um, remember the Arab Spring? And my audience will be well

situated to understand that that was a SCOP in a lot of ways and there was CIA interference that was going on there, etc. But once again, a region in turmoil with people coming out on the streets looking for a different way forward. And uh, so Ernie stepped into that with, "Oh, you you guys want something different? Well, how about this?" And so he I believe at that time I believe Ernie commissioned it. At any rate he dug up the Arabic translation and was um paying for this to be I believe distributed on DVDs at Ter Square and other elsewhere there. So putting this information right in front of the people who needed it at that time and un not coincidentally

uh it's at that exact time he started getting uh DNS attacks uh from uh what his IT people were telling him was government sources at that exact time where they were doing this allout campaign, you know, with the Arab Spring and trying to get people on philosophy of liberty. Uh some of the heaviest attacks he's ever come up under online happened to take place at that time. So I think that speaks to the the real potential subversive power of something like this and as you say um the potential for censorship has always existed and presumably always will which is again why I think it's uh it's going to be um word of mouth that will be the only thing that actually may propagates this online.

>> Yep. So what made you decide now to kind of you know or I guess within the last three or four months to really to really push this? Is there is there something that Yeah. >> Well, yeah, it's a good question. Honestly, I think any time in the past 20 years would have been a good time and presumably any time in my entire lifetime would have been a good time. So, I don't know if there's any this has to be happening right now about it. But having said that, I could think of many reasons why it should be happening right now. As you say, this should probably be, you know, they should be dropping DVDs. I guess no one watches DVDs anymore. leaflets with QR codes so you

can go directly to libertas.ear all over Washington DC right now let alone everywhere else on the planet. Um because obviously I think we have come become unmed from these philosophical concepts altogether. I think probably not one person in a hundred in America these days let alone anywhere else in the world is actively thinking about political philosophy at all let alone the philosophy of liberty. And of course, we've just seen another the 250th Independence Day come and go. Yay. July 4th, all of that. Hot dogs and fireworks. But what does it mean? What's it about? And I'm sure you saw the headlines of those startling statistics that 47% of Americans have no idea what

Independence Day is even about, etc. And I have often said, as as I say, I am now comfortable with saying I am an anarchist. I do not believe in the the validity of political authority. I think like Lark and Rose for example, I I think it is the most dangerous superstition, the belief in government authority, etc., etc. But if there is any political document in human history that I can even at least mostly get behind with some reservations, it would be the Declaration of Independence. I think that is the closest that we have seen in terms of uttering and and uh conceiving this idea of trying to put political philos the the real political philosophy of liberty into some sort of

somewhat political document. And so that's where I I would say, hey, this is a great opportunity, guys. Hey, you remember this Independence Day thing you're celebrating, 250th anniversary and all this? What does it mean? What's it about? Hey, I've got this little eight minute flash animation video for you. I think once you watch this, it'll put some of the pieces together. I think it might be an opportunity to introduce this to people who otherwise would have no wouldn't even cross their minds to think about it, let alone to think in this way about it. And as I say, that's I mean it is a ripe time for this because the more and more we become unmured from the political philosophies

that have guided our forefathers and their forefathers before them for generations, the more we have been had that that education drilled out of us, the worse things get. And I don't think that that's a coincidence. Clearly tyranny is increasing in the world. And I think that is because clearly people have not um thought properly about the political situation and what it means and why we are so invested in this system of representative democracy leading inevitably to democratic socialism leading inevitably to techno technocracy. Um that seems to me to be the logical progression of all these steps and it is because people do not have the the philosophy of liberty

undergirling their their entire intellectual framework. Yeah, that's why I thought the timing the timing is great because people are sleepwalking into technocracy and don't even realize it. And technocracy is absolutely the antithesis of this. I mean, under a technocratic system, you essentially surrender your free will. All of your decisions are being made for you with, you know, digital IDs, programmable digital currencies, AI surveillance. And so uh it and I know it's difficult to broach the subject of technocracy with people because you know if you know very few people understand what the declaration is of independence is all about almost no one's even heard

of technocracy or they confuse it with technology and so I think this is appropriate to to get this out there and to get people thinking about these important ideas and the idea of self ownership because that really is at the core of all of it. Now, now let's let's be clear. Let's lay it out on the table. The philosophy of liberty, I don't I think doesn't doesn't preclude the possibility of a technocracy from forming. Um, in so far as if people are knowledgeably informed and give their knowledgeably informed consent to any given sort of system, then that system there's no there's no one from outside of that system that can come in and tell people not to do that.

So if people are clamoring for the AI data centers and they want to be surveiled and they want Palunteer watching over everything they do and they're gladly signing up for digital ID because they want to do so and there's no fraud or force or coercion, then that is their choice. I would argue with them about that choice, but it wouldn't be for me to step in and stop them from making that choice. However, obviously that is not is what is happening. What is happening are backroom deals that are being cut between li basically the intelligence agencies in the military-industrial complex and private contractors like Palanteer that are doing their dirty work for them in this

elaborate system that is designed to bamboozle and trick the public into sleepwalking into this technocracy that then has them in its clutches which as you say I think is the opposite of what this philosophy of liberty is expounding. So I think again we have to understand what this is and what it isn't. It this isn't even necessarily an argument against government itself. As I say, if you want to choose a leader for yourself to rule over you and you agree to abide by that system voluntarily with full knowledge of what you're doing, have at it. Have fun. But that doesn't obligate me to be part of that system. And that, I think, is what we need to be arguing for. It's kind of like during

the COVID times. Um, if someone else wanted to wear a mask because it made them feel better, who is it for me to tell them that they can't wear that mask in the exact same way as if I'm not going to wear a mask because I know it's totally useless. Who is it who are they to be able to tell me that I have to wear a mask? It goes both ways. And freedom is a wonderful thing, but a messy thing because it means that we cannot impose our views on anyone else. Well, I think that the whole area of consent is an interesting one because at what point do you really truly have informed consent? You know, what are the those dividing lines between force and fraud and and not having

>> Excellent point. Especially in not not even just technocracy but alocracy because clearly we are being shaped by algorithms that we may not even be aware are operating but are clearly shaping our viewpoints, our entire lives at this point. For people in your audience who might not be aware of the scope of this problem, I always uh invite people to look at the selfish ledger which was an internal Google video from several years ago. It's just I think 10 minutes long and it goes through how yes, even internally at Google, they are fully aware and fully operating on the principle that algorithms and things that are happening behind the scenes on these websites that you're visiting and

these apps you're using are going to shape your life. And if they can do that to any one individual, they can shape your decisions so that you'd end up being this type of person or being that type of person or going in this direction or that direction. If they can do that individually to any one person, then they can do that to individually to each and every person. And once you start talking about shaping the entire human population like that, you talk about a type of control that has, I think, never even been envisioned by even the most dystopian of dystopian sci-fi writers in the past. And yes, I think we need to confront that idea. What is informed consent? And how are

how is what we believe we are being shaped by algorithms that we don't even know exist? And I'll give an example of that actually even in my own case. How much of who I am today is authentically some perfect and and untouched me? And how much is it I've been influenced and shaped by various things that have been put in front of me for my attention over the years? And I have a a podcast episode on this subject specifically. It's called Pricking the Filter Bubble. And in that, I tell the story essentially about how I fell down the the internet rabbit hole towards 9/11 truth and things like that. how essentially how I became the James Corbett of the Corbett Report and how

much of that was shaped by, for example, what YouTube was recommending me on the sidebar back in those early days of YouTube before the algorithm even became a shadow of what it is today. It was still there. It was still operating and it was sending me in a certain direction that ended up with me here at the website doing what I do. So again, how much of me is authentically me? And at what point does voluntary informed consent actually come into the picture when we're talking about being shaped by things that we do or don't see that we you'll never know what you don't see because YouTube or whoever isn't showing it to you. >> Yeah. And one of the initiatives that

I've I've launched a couple of initiatives that actually dovetail with this very nicely, I actually started out with a website called own nothing.org. And and the original idea behind this was uh I was writing an article and I started thinking about these click wrap agreements that we sign, you know, your Microsoft terms of service, your rental car agreement, your stock brokerage agreement. And I started looking into these things. No one reads these. And in fact, I it turns out that it would take you I think the average person now signs 200 250 of these a year. It would take you two hours a day, 365 days a year just to read these contracts. So, of course, no one does it. You just skim

through the end. So, then I'm like, well, okay, well, what's in these things? And so, I put you, you know, put AI to use and decided, well, okay, nobody reads this, but what if you could come up with a score that analyzed, well, what are we giving up in terms of your privacy, your ownership, and everything else? And I came to the conclusion that, you know, we largely already own nothing. And that one of the most important things that we can do is kind of reclaim our free will along a along a number of different dimensions. owning your own mind, owning your privacy, owning your money, your attention, your body, your food, your kids' future, what you bought, your

word, and AI. And in fact, so this is kind of what I've been working on is trying to push um finding, you know, tools and resources that help people in each of these areas. And I've even kind of launched a deled phone that comes, you know, pre-installed with a bunch of apps, privacy apps, whatever. Uh, and in fact, I'm going to link Libertas Earth to this so that when people get this phone, they can actually click to it right off the phone because this is critically important. And it's really hard, as you said, to uh to own yourself if you're not even aware of what's influencing you. And [clears throat] we go through this situation where, you know, the first seven years of your

life, you have no conscious filter. So whatever goes in is kind of becomes your programming that you have to kind of recognize at some point down the line you can address. Then you go into government schools and you receive indoctrination for you know whatever it is 12 years and then you have media politics and everything else. And so it it's quite an effort. You're you're starting out most people aren't aware you're kind of starting out at a in a deficit and you have to become aware of those things. Um, and I think this is this is critically important. Uh, as you said, even in your own journey, but with this video and the information at libertas.ear, you can begin to realize,

okay, hey, wait a minute. Yeah, I do own my own life. But I think isn't isn't one of the scary things that people have with this idea is that if you own your own life, you also have to take responsibility for your own life. >> Absolutely. Yes. I wouldn't want anyone to come away from our conversation. And I don't think they would come away from the video, but I wouldn't want them to come away from it by thinking this is some sort of utopian solution to everything and don't worry, all problems will be solved. Let's just make everybody free. No. Obviously, um to put it in Spider-Man terms, with great freedom comes great responsibility. Yes, of course. If you own yourself and your

life and you are responsible for your life, that is a that is a burden. Absolutely. And I understand why for most people most of the time they can't be bothered with a burden like that. Oh my god, just, you know, tell me what to do. Tell me where to go. Give me my hot dog and beer and I'll be happy. And that is the trade-off which is leading humanity to the collective slaughter pin. And I say that advisedly. I say that quite literally in a number of ways. I think we are heading towards the extinction of the human species. Not necessarily at the point of a gun being herded into the slaughter pen. No, I think many people are going there willingly again depending on how we talk

about that voluntary consent. But making the tradeoff of freedom for convenience and perhaps there is no better sort of encapsulation of that than what you're talking about with the terms of agreement. Accept, accept, whatever. Who cares? I'm not going to read all that. let me just accept and I'll get this thing that I want. And that is essentially what we're doing. Um not just in terms of the apps we're downloading or whatever, but literally everything that we're doing. It's convenient. I'm just going to go along with what's what's happening. And so, yes, uh, as for example, as people may or may not know, over at corporreport.com, I have a regular podcast called SolutionsWatch where I'm

trying to look at all sorts of different ideas for confronting the the growing technocracy, enslavement state that we see growing around us. Um, but pretty much the bottom line common factor amongst all the ideas that I offer is something along the lines of, yeah, but you you'll actually have to do something. you'll actually have to get off your butt and do something to make it happen in the real world. And that's work. And I know a lot of people don't like that. They want the easiest possible way. And what could be easier than, hey, this politician has come along and is promising me that he'll do X, Y, and Zed. I'm going to vote for that politician and I push the button

and then go back to my life and everything's I don't at least that's my responsibility in the representative democracy system and I don't have to think about it. Whereas in a world of freedom you have to take your own safety and freedom and uh and and relations and all of that. You have to take that as responsibility and treat it as the responsibility that it is which is work. And so I'm not here to offer some sort of utopian fantasy solution where everything's going to be all right. No, there will still be problems in the world. But the difference will be that you actually own yourself in a world that is based on the philosophy of freedom. And you actually get to make

decisions for yourself and your loved ones that um at the very least can create the type of that can you can carve out the type of space that you want for yourself and your family in this world in negotiation with other people which is always I mean that is essentially the human condition. We are in we are in this big human species. We're all always negotiating with people all the all the time every every day. But the difference in the world that we have been steeped in, that we've been born in, that we've been indoctrinated in the public schooling system is that we have been indoctrinated to accept the fact that there is always this silent middleman in every interaction that we

have. The government is there between every interaction you have, watching over the shoulder, making sure you don't do this or you don't do that or uh coming in to take you away if you do something bad. Bad as defined by the government, of course. And so again, I'm probably preaching to the choir when it comes to your core audience on issues like this. But for people who have never thought about that silent middleman in every transaction that we have and how that skews the types of transactions that we have, well, this is a good opportunity to start thinking about that. >> Well, you know, you never know with these things. I I always thought, you know, I have an audience that it it's

pro crypto actually. kind of all over the map because it it comes from, you know, different sources and different kind of parts of my life that have are now intersected through through this podcast. But I remember, you know, with cryptocurrency and and Bitcoin, the whole idea behind it was, hey, here's an opportunity to have a currency that has no third parties that people use for peer-to-peer transactions. And now uh as we sit here today, it's turned into this thing where you know you have a company like Michael Sailor Strategy which which is selling shares in its company. So you're you're getting an ownership stake in a company that that bought some Bitcoin but doesn't even have it in its

own custody and then it's subject to all the rules and regulation. It turns out you're now more steps removed from actual ownership of the asset today than you were certainly when Bitcoin was launched. And it's even worse now, I would argue, than fiat because it's highly surveillable. So, but what I found is that, you know, with the idea, the early movement of Bitcoin, people were excited about this idea of of peer-to-peer and that and that I would own this in my own self-custody. And now people have never even heard of that idea. They don't even know that that was the original concept. So getting these ideas out there and this video and talking about the importance of self

ownership is important even to people that may be listening to this or people that have gotten into crypto and heard one thing and don't realize what the existing thing is because the threat here is really substantial. This is needed because we have going on now um the clarity act which is the latest which is you know I I would rebrand it the you will own nothing bill because what the clarity act is going to do is take everything that you own not just the money that you use to buy and sell things but your stocks your bonds your house and it's going to create a digital token that represents those things and that digital token is going to be subject to uh government regulation

surveillance and it's going to have all these third parties in it. So the the what you talk about with these, you know, the middle layer with with government has has somehow [laughter] the powers that be have figured out a way to take the concept of peer-to-peer and turn it on its head and invert it. And so it's very important that people understand self ownership in this context because everybody is about to be completely dispossessed from everything that they think they own. You are completely right about that and it's hard for people today to understand that unless they were there. I believe I started accepting Bitcoin in 2013 something along those lines. So early

early times uh at least relatively speaking and at that time I would I would say that the overlap of people who understood the philosophy of liberty and people who were interested in cryptocurrency was almost a circle. I mean it was it was a lot of overlap. Now it's a tiny sliver and we need to improve that massively otherwise as you say the entire point of cryptocurrency was the disintermediation that was I mean has anyone even read the the original white paper uh of course it was about getting rid of the central banks and that was the very fundamental premise of this idea and why are why would people adopt it anyway and we have moved from that to a time where people

are scrambling to adopt so that they can be compliant client so that they can file their taxes properly so that they can then gamble in essentially a new type of casino, an online digital casino, which like every other casino is rigged anyway. So yes, the uh the the the disconnect between the underlying philosophical backing and the technology itself has become far too great. And if yes, if nothing else, if Libertas.ear Earth could introduce or reintroduce the Bitcoin community and cryptocurrency enthusiasts generally to the concept of the philosophy of liberty and why maybe they shouldn't be using Bitcoin at this point and maybe looking for privacy respecting coins. I mean that's that

that would be to the to the good of humanity I'd say. >> Uh well I know we're almost at the top of the hour here so I guess in wrapping this up I see that there's a a section here for promoters. So what can people do? You know, let's say people have listened to this. They've they've watched the philosophy of liberty video. How how can they help? And and what is the promoters section about? >> So promoters in this case is just a simple link swap idea. So for example, if you go ahead with your de-led phone idea of putting libertas.ear on the degooled phone, then let us know about it and then we'll be happy to put a banner up for your your your phone on the the promoters page. It's it's just

that simple. If you want to promote this, great. and then we'll promote you back. And that's people might remember that's the way the early worldwide web used to work. And uh maybe that's that's kind of the model going forward. It's not a paid thing at all. You don't have to pay. But if you if you want to promote your business by helping promote libertar, great. >> Well, I know I'll be promoting it on all my sites and on the DG Google phone as well. And I think this is uh terrific work. So, thank you for uh for everything that you're doing on this and thank you for for coming on today to to share this with my audience. >> Thank you for having me on. Thank you for talking about this incredibly

important topic. >> All right, talk to you soon. >> Okay, and we are back uh back live. That was uh obviously, as you probably figured out, that was a pre-recorded uh episode that I did with uh James yesterday. In fact, he is located in Japan, so obviously trying to try to get him on live would have been a bit of a challenge. Uh, but in any event, I thought I would uh play that first and then jump into some of the other uh content and then maybe do a live Q&A if if uh there's time and and people have interest. Uh I got to be honest, there's

a a lot going on. Um a lot going on. I I'm going to put a link to the uh the live Q&A, but I'm not ready for it yet. So, just so you have it handy, I still have some stuff that I want to go through. And mainly what is happening right now uh relates to my run for the United States Senate uh here in New Hampshire and there are quite a few developments on that front. So I will walk through those uh now. Uh so I as you may know or may not know the I filed my what's called declaration of intent to run for United States Senate and it was rejected by the Secretary of State claiming that uh I

need to be a registered voter where I live. Uh which I in fact had changed my voter registration to where I lived. I've been continuously registered to vote in New Hampshire the entire time. And in fact, um, the United States Constitution states very clearly there can only be three qualifications for running for United States Senate. You have to be 30 years old, a citizen for 9 years, and an inhabitant when elected. And there has been Supreme Court uh, rulings on this as recently as 1995 in a case versus US terminal limits versus Thornton, which states states may not add to these qualifications. So fundamentally the issue is that the New Hampshire

uh New Hampshire's rules or whatever for uh qualification for US Senate are unconstitutional. And so I filed a lawsuit and an emergency temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction. And and I have to say the court has acted incredibly quickly. I mean, I submitted this these documents, I believe, last Tuesday, and I got a response like that Thursday, and they had agreed to have um uh a hearing uh regarding the the timing of how we would adjudicate this because, you know, you have to understand we're up against some pretty tight timets here. I have to get 3,000 signatures collected and turned in by August the 5th. uh September the n uh the excuse me

the 2nd is the absolute deadline for me to to turn in the certified uh petitions to get on to the ballot. And so we had a hearing about the timetable. And in fact um the the judge was even uh more aggressive than I had asked for. And so we actually have a hearing on this preliminary injunction next Wednesday. So I will I will talk about that. And but it I will tell you it looks uh very very promising. Uh and I've put together, if I don't say so myself, a very compelling brief that hits all of the aspects of this. And so I mean I'll, you know, talk to you. I've already kind of put my uh the complaint that I filed on the record. It's at day2026.com. So you can read all of this. I'm not

necessarily going to go into a lot of the details here, but in essence, I was rejected twice by the Secretary of State. They they rejected my first declaration of intent and then I um filed my registration in where I am doiciled now and then refiled just to make sure that they weren't going to try to pull any shenanigans. So within the filing period, uh, I was registered to vote where I'm doiciled, even though that's not a requirement based on the constitution. And they still tried to keep me, uh, out, uh, at the state level. And in fact, they they cited some law that is about, you know, you have to change your party affiliation before June the 2nd. So the filing period, if

you're going to run, you have to file between June the 3rd and June 12th. Um, and they they do have a law in the books that they were actively promoting on their website. If you are going to change your party affiliation, you need to do that before uh June the 2nd. Well, I'm not changing my party affiliation. I'm not in a primary. I don't have a primary. I'm running as an independent. So, this entire thing, there's no there's no basis for what they've done, not only according to the Constitution, but according to their own statutes. So, they've cited this whole deadline. As I just said, this RSA 65432, it's a party affiliation deadline. It has absolutely nothing to do with my

independent run for the United States Senate. So, I am a registered voter. I've been a continuously registered voter for a long time, for over a decade in New Hampshire. This is my voter ID number. And Nasha accepted my registration on June the 11th. And when they did so, when I went into the town clerk's office, they pulled up my record and I was registered to vote and they said, "Hey, do you want us to just transfer uh your same information, same party affiliation um from Bedford where I was unaffiliated, which is the designation if you're an independent and not one of the two major parties." And so this I've got paperwork for this. I mean, this is a uh a very clear situation. And so

they're trying to get me on some technicality where well, but the NSHA thing database says that I'm pending and that I'm not really a registered voter until the uh the supervisors of the checklist meet and put me on the official list, which even that is absurd because uh we have same day voting in the state of New Hampshire. So people can just come in and and register the same day and and this supervisor of checklist they don't meet on that day to get you on an official list before you cast your ballot for same day registration. The whole thing is absolutely uh ridiculous. And so what they're trying to do is they're trying to say well a town meeting calendar now

determines who can run for the United States Senate. The United States Constitution is very clear. As I mentioned before, there are only three criteria for uh being eligible to run for the United States Senate. And being a registered voter is not one of them. Being a registered voter where you're doiciled is not one of them. And the courts have ruled on this. This is a defect in New Hampshire state law. It's unconstitutional. And so anyway, I'm looking forward to my day in court. I've I've spent a lot of time I will say working on these legal documents and that'll be a subject for another day but I'm going to go into this thing you know fully fully well prepared and I think the judge even

signaled that this term limits versus Thornton case um you know is likely to be you know you ask the state well you know explain how why this shouldn't be uh the controlling case and if it is then this is a Um this is a slam dunk. In fact, I think it's a a slam dunk anyway. I think it's a slam dunk in on in three different ways. Um states can do things uh with respect to elections regarding time, manner, and place, but so they can require for instance that I have 3,000 signatures, but they cannot determine uh who is qualified to run. That is a constitutional issue, and the courts have upheld this time and time again. So, I would be frankly shocked if we if we lost, although I'm certainly

not going to be overconfident about it. I'm I'm absolutely preparing uh as much information as I can. And of course, I'm not a lawyer, [clears throat] so I'm going to go probably overboard just to make sure I've studied all the cases inside out and know what uh the situation is. So, but every federal court that has ever been presented with a voter registration requirement for Congress uh has shot down the state. So, uh you know, if I were to lose, it would be uh precedent setting and it would be against uh you know, a variety of different rulings across the country and a Supreme Court case from 1995. So, I recommend I would love to see some people show up for this. There's

actually not a lot of room uh in the federal courthouse, but um but yeah, you know, I think if you you show up, this is going to be on uh on Wednesday at I believe 11:00 a.m. Um and uh the the Warren BMAN US courthouse, 55 Pleasant Street, conquered. In fact, I just got some documentation today where, you know, the Secretary of State has stipulated to uh most of the facts in my complaint. So, we don't have to go back and forth with, you know, uh, discovery or witnesses or anything like that. We we pretty much agree on the core set of facts. Now, it's just a matter of, uh, resolving this on this date, uh, July the 15th at 11:00 a.m. So, I will tell you, uh, media was there

just for my hearing, uh, the scheduling hearing. Uh, so we had somebody there from uh, the New York Sun, somebody there from NHPR, which, you know, I couldn't get anybody to cover this CA election for months as I've been kind of leading into this. So, um, I this this case this case and this race will receive national attention because it is absolutely a critical and might be the swing race that determines the control of the US Senate. And as I've said before, I have already served in this role before. I've already successfully run as a third party with the specific intention of holding the Republican party accountable uh and was successful in in doing that. Um and you know, a lot

of people don't like this. A lot of people don't like the approach. A lot of people don't like to rock the boat. They they they say, "Well, you know, there can only be two parties. You know, if you're not going to vote for this, you're voting for the Dem." And I mean, we're at a point right now as we sit here right now, I just saw come up on my screen, US bombs Iranian nuclear reactor. Now, I don't know if that's fully true. Haven't fully investigated it, but I mean, you know, the reason I think the strategy is important is because once we get into the situation where you're picking lesser of two evils, then you end up making excuses for your team. You end up justifying things like

suppressing the Epstein list. You end up justifying murdering 165 school children in Iran. You end up justifying building uh digital prisons on top of open air prisons like what is being proposed in Gaza. And and then it becomes there's no set of criteria. You're just a an NPC on a team and you're on a team just because you happen to be on that team. and the team stands for nothing and there's no accountability because then the answer is always well it's either our team you're either on the red team or you're on the blue team. Well, I I'm what I'm suggesting here and I've demonstrated already is there is another way. There is an opportunity to hold these two

parties accountable. And by the way, this can be done. When I did this in 2016, it was the most expensive United States Senate race per capita in the history of the United States. It was $131 million race and it cost $99 per vote. That's how much money was spent on that race. I spent nothing and determined the outcome of the race. This is the beauty of what I'm talking about here. Now imagine as people are starting to get upset about things like data AI data centers and flat cameras and everything else. You know, look, I understand the argument that third parties can't win. Um, and I my answer my response to that would be, well, we don't always have the

same two parties. Uh, we have, you know, we've had the wig party, we've had the Bull Moose Party or whatever it happens to be. Yes, you only end up with two primary parties, but at some point some of these main parties become so corrupted uh, that they no longer are in the, you know, in the two-party system and something replaces it. But this ability to utilize a 50/50 divided country, and by the way, the 50/50 division is all fake. It's all manufactured. The technocrats and the people pulling the strings behind the scenes want us to be divided 50/50. So, this is an opportunity to basically stick the bat right where you know, you know, where um and say, you know what,

we we're not going to put up with this. you're we're not going to let you, you know, continue to move us techn to towards technocracy by having us believe that it matters which which, you know, team we're on, red versus blue. This is an opportunity to really hold them accountable. In my case, the I've issued the four demands and the the Republican part is going to be held accountable one of two ways. They're either going to be held accountable before the election or they're going to be held accountable after the election. So, I've issued the four demands. Uh the demands are free the crypto prisoners, fire Howard Lutnik, kill the Clarity Act and and end the draft. And so what could happen is,

you know, the administration could make good on what they said they were going to do. All of the things that are listed in my demands and the same, this also holds for why I ran for United States Senate in 2016. All I was trying to do in 2016 was stop Republicans from extending Obamacare Medicaid expansion for the sole reason of benefiting a sitting United States senator. And at the time, the opposition to Obamacare was the number one issue in the party platform for the entire Republican party. And they went against it. So I'm like, "Hey, listen. If you're going to go against the number one element of your platform and something that the overwhelming majority of

Republicans like and you're doing this just to protect someone's job in Washington DC, then we're going to cost the person that job in Washington DC so that you don't do that anymore. You don't engage in that kind of behavior. And the behavior is flagrantly going against the platform of the party. And in this case, frankly, I had four demands. It could have been 40 demands because this administration is completely off the reservation relative to the promises. Remember, you know, the lot of people that were excited 2024 before the election, they thought, you know, America first, we're going to end globalism, no more wars in the Middle East, the war on crypto is going

to be over. You know, no CBDC's and, you know, we're going to lead the world in innovation in crypto. we're going to cut the budget by $2 trillion with Doge. And what we ended up getting was something that uh is the opposite of that. We got the Genius Act, which is a backdoor CBDC. They're trying to push through the Clarity Act. It hasn't passed yet, but the Clarity Act, and this is, you know, my tagline on this, there's the Clarity Act makes the Patriot Act look like the Declaration of Independence. It is the worst surveillance bill in the history of the United States. And it's not even close. And most people think it's a, you know, pro- crypto bill that's going to

pump their bags. It's going to take, it's going to make all crypto subject to real- time uh tracing and tracking, including transaction history. It's going to share that information with multiple departments of the US federal government and foreign central banks. And then they're going to take everything that you own, your stocks, your bonds, your mortgage, and everything else, and they're going to tokenize that. And in tokenizing that, it makes all of those assets subject to the same surveillance. And so no one talks about this bill because it's complicated and because people bought the propaganda, but it is a gigantic rugpull. So that's happened. Doge didn't

save $2 trillion. Doge was here to usher in technocracy, which it's done. It's connected Palunteer to multiple departments of the federal government. Palunteer is going to be now running audits. They're connected to the Department of Homeland Homeland Services. They're they're connected to ICE. They are connected in with the health care system. And this is not about efficiency. It's about control and it's about surveillance and on and on and on. So it's and then you know drain the swamp. If there were ever a a poster child for what the swamp is, it's Howard Lutnik. Uh, I mean, he's, you know, you can't you can't go around and claim you're you're uh you're stopping

corruption and cleaning things up in Washington DC and then bring uh Jeffrey Epstein's uh nextdoor neighbor who, you know, uh backed Tether before putting himself in a political position where he could benefit from it and his family could benefit from it. Wrote the the uh tariff legislation wrong and then had his family uh monetize that by vetting that the Supreme Court would overturn it. uh Lutnick's involved with the regulation of AI. Lutnik is the reason that Claude Fable was shut down and Claude Myth Mythos was shut down. The whole thing uh it's just it's demoralizing. Uh and and so uh you know, again, I could have had 40 things on the list, but I picked I picked those four

because they're really related to um not only they broken uh campaign promises, but they're the most important issues, at least in my opinion, regarding uh technocracy, stopping technocracy. To me, the war on crypto prisoners, the and the extension of it, uh, with, you know, newly charged people like Ray Yousef, the purpose of that is to prevent people who are effective at promoting solutions to technocracy, peer-to-peer digital cash, privacy, open- source privacy, uh, tools. These are not people that committed any crimes. These are entrepreneurs who are actually protecting our constitutional rights. So the idea that these guys should be in prison,

this isn't even one of these, oh gee, you know, these guys deserve clemency because they did their time or they learned their lesson. There was no lesson to learn. The lesson that should be learned is you shouldn't be putting people like this in prison. These these are the people that we need the most uh and and we need them now. And so um so in any event either there will be big movement on these demands which I would say is just holding them accountable. And again it's not it doesn't even require political people get you know get all riled up about this. Oh how could you demand this? How could I demand that they do what they say they do? How dare you say that's outrageous?

What kind of political system do we have when you can't try to hold somebody accountable for their own word? This is how the state of the breakdown of the political system at this point. But if they choose to ignore those things and to continue to not fulfill their campaign promises, then the accountability will happen at the ballot box in November. And I, you know, I'd love to get some comments. I'll play it again at the end. I I did kind of an over-the-top music video with Cenounu in it and everything else, but it it encapsulates kind of what I think about this race and and why it's important. And I just interviewed this this morning with uh somebody from the media and they're kind

of looking at this and they're saying, "Wow, is this real? Is this an actual threat?" Yeah, of course it's a threat. I've proven this. This race is um you know depending on the polls anywhere between CNU is down by anywhere between one and five points and Miriam Adlesen has funded a pack that's committed $17 million to this race and I'm like big deal. AOT spent a lot more than that. This isn't even, you know, this is the largest, and I even say this in the music video, it's the largest allocation uh to the race that's been made since this happened exactly the same 10 years ago. So, there's almost no amount of money that you can throw at this if I'm on the ballot to get Cenounu over the

finish line. And by the way, it has nothing to do with me. I want to be very clear about what voting for me is about. Voting for me is not voting for me because if I go to Washington DC, I can solve [clears throat] all of your problems. I am the ability for you to with a clean conscience express your dissatisfaction with the uh the administration and frankly the technocratic lobbyist candidate that they put up there. Um and and so I'm not I it's not about me. It's about reflecting the spirit of the times in 2016. People voted for me because they knew where I stood on uh Medicaid expansion. They knew where I stood on dislike of people in the federal government

interfering with our state elections and they had dislike for Kelly Ayat's foreign policy and her close ties to John McCain. So I was an ability for people to express their dissatisfaction uh in a way that's pure because you if if you do know me and now increasingly in New Hampshire people do. I've been here for 17 years. I've been involved in, you know, politics for for a long time and I know a lot of people. I have been absolutely uh committed and principled uh some would say to a fault, but you know exactly where I I'm going to stand on all these issues. And you know, you you you know that I truly believe and it is actually true that the biggest threat we face is technocracy

and that uh I am very much pro New Hampshire and that the biggest threat to New Hampshire is technocracy and then followed up at number two by the federal government because no matter how much we do at the state level, no matter how much people want to believe that New Hampshire runs from the bottom up, it doesn't. And so the idea that well we're just going to ignore Washington DC and we're going to continue doing things from the bottom up is as I say the idea at the end of that is we end up being the freest plantation in the slave colony. It is it is not an achievement. You have to figure out a way to start mitigating and minimizing and reducing the control that Washington DC has over

the state of New Hampshire. And that hasn't happened. the federal government has a greater uh influence over what happens at the state level uh than 10 years ago and then you know 20 years ago and just one example of that is real ID in 2007 both parties came out in the legislature and said this is a horrible bill and it's unconstitutional. Fast forward to 2026 under complete Republican majorities. Well, actually in 2016, Republicans put up uh making Real ID optional and then this year we're now taking taxpayer money and using it to make it digital. So my point to to those in the Free State Project and those who say, "Well, we should just focus on local uh you need to zoom out and you

need to look at the growth and the expansion of the federal government relative to the growth in gains at the local level. this is this is an imperative thing uh to do. But if we are successful either way, if we are successful in holding them accountable before the election, then it's a big win because uh we'll have it'll be a big win for the idea that you can actually fight the technocracy and that the heroes that are out there innovating um uh you know more people will be emboldened to continue to develop these kinds of solutions. It'll have the opposite. It'll have a um emboldening effect as opposed to the chilling effect that happens when the state goes after

and raids these people at 6:00 in the morning and throws them in a cage and gives them a farce of illegal process. If if if we can show that we can win, uh then that's going to encourage others to believe that it is in fact possible to defeat the technocracy. So there's a lot at stake here. But but this will also prove the point that imagine what we could do in the future um at the local, state, and federal level using a third party strategically. And I have to stress using a third party strategically because I understand the frustration. There is frustration that's understandable about the Libertarian party. I mean, you can end up with a situation where, you know, it it hasn't

happened in this case yet, but we've had some instances of stuff like this, I believe, in New Hampshire. You know, imagine well you've got a libertarian party and then you know you you go and you run some a libertarian against somebody like Thomas Massie. Uh that would be idiotic. You would be cannibalizing yourself. You would actually be cannibalizing uh the the ability to to push liberty politically to the extent that you believed in that. But if you were strategic about saying, "Hey, listen. This is a 50/50 country and there are billions and billions of dollars spent on these elections." And you know, instead of it just being New Hampshire, maybe next time around, we pick the

three closest races in the United States where you can actually make a difference, where you can have leverage, right? And so, because again, for the parties, it's all about control. They have to have, you know, control of, you know, one one or more of these branches. Obviously, they prefer to have all of it, but in this case, this is a big leverage point. Um, I was on a Xpace today and I said, "Listen, I I hated politics. I I got out of it in 2018 and didn't expect to get back. I my whole view was we need to build parallel systems, but unfortunately those that are the most effective at building these parallel systems have been thrown in prison. So I've come to the conclusion

that we need a a multi-channel approach and that multi-channel approach uh involves some aspect of politics. Not that we're going to reform the political system, but that we can throw a wrench in the works. Imagine, you know, I'm going to add one other component to this. I've decided to represent myself on this pros seay um for a variety of reasons. Unfortunately, I have a lot of experience with the legal system. I've probably had two dozen attorneys over the years for various corporate things. I've never sued anybody before. Uh but I've worked with a lot of lawyers. I've been sued um you know, a couple of times. Um not related to anything involving business, but related to

actually election stuff. and uh going back to 2016. Um but I have had the experience of being a free stater and part of being a free stater is you go to a lot of court hearings uh and I've read a lot of documents and uh my wife is also very uh very familiar and very fil with with the legal system here. And so um you also know I'm I've spent a lot of time and money and effort using AI. And you know, I've built a system here on this case where it's not you're going to Chad GPT and say, "Hey, write me a lawsuit." Uh, it's uh I'll show you when it gets done. If if if we're successful here, I'll show you exactly how all of it works. But I put in place a lot of um checks and balances. I even run

simulations of different scenarios, run a 100 different simulations based on who the actual judge is and their actual track record and who's on the other side and everything else. uh to kind of get a a list of, you know, here's here's the red team response and to stress test this and everything else. And so so [clears throat] far it's worked well in the in the sense that all these documents I turned in 57 pages of documents. I turned it around in 48 hours and that's what led to these emergency hearing and everything else which is which is really unprecedented um the the speed with which this has happened. But imagine in addition to being able to strategically use a third

party, let's take something like data centers, right? I'm not going to say all data centers are bad because that's that's actually not true. Most of them are and and and in fact most of the ones that uh everybody it is conceivable that somebody could voluntarily build a data center where that data center was not the Death Star and not subsidized by ourselves through taxes, right? that it is possible to have those things and there are data centers like that. But by and large, what people are, you know, when you hear about this $800 million data center that Facebook put up in Wyoming and then they poisoned the water supply, if you listen to everything that

uh I talked about with Craig Wowitz when we went through and did an analysis of what's going on in Ohio with respect to uh data centers, then you you come to the conclusion that, you know, yeah, this is basically, you know, top-down federally directed surveillance systems. that are being subsidized at the state level to the benefit of technocrats. Um, but what are you going to do about it? How are you going to stop it? And there's been some success. But what if this model that I'm doing here, filing prosay, if I were to have filed this lawsuit, if I had hired an attorney, probably would have cost 20 $25,000 to put together these documents. and and actually there's even a carveout where

uh if I were to be victorious in this case uh the state would actually have to pay my legal fees. Now this doesn't apply to me personally uh prosay but I could have hired you I could have brought on a you know a top lawyer and if they won they they ultimately could have uh could have had their their legal fees uh compensated for by the state which I don't really want to do that either. I I don't see any need to put an additional burden on New Hampshire taxpayers just because the Secretary of State didn't properly understand the Constitution or the legislature didn't properly understand the Constitution when they drafted their statutes. This is something that we can fix without

having to waste more money. Um, but in any event, if if this works, imagine now if all over the country, imagine if there were a thousand lawsuits filed, prosay, where you had people in the towns filing the lawsuits and they were using AI to draft the lawsuits because I I I've seen this in the past with uh cell towers. You know, if Verizon wants to put in the cell tower, you you may very well have a group of concerned citizens and they may show up at a town council meeting and they may make a little bit of noise, but then Verizon's going to come in with their lawyers. They're going to come in with a PR firm. Somebody's going to bribe the town council and in the end

these these cell towers end up uh being built. Um, and in part it's because of legal threats. And I've seen this happen a lot. You'll see a town council say, "Well, you know, we just didn't want to fight these guys in court because we didn't want to spend the money on the legal fees." And so, well, what if all and and of course individuals in a town can't afford the legal fees either? So, what are you going to do if Verizon comes in and they're going to drop $100,000 on legal fees? What is your response to that going to be? What are are concerned citizens uh that just want, you know, what they perceive is the best for their community going to chip in? Can they afford to put in

$100,000 in legal fees? No, generally not. But what if your legal fees were dropped to essentially nothing and the only thing that you had to pay were filing fees? So I think in addition, so I again I'm going back to the biggest threat remains technocracy. The ultimate solution is building parallel systems. That doesn't change because you're not going to fix the government apparatus. You still need to build the parallel systems, but the rate at which technocracy is expanding is happening faster than we're able to build parallel systems. And it's largely because there's no friction. There's no friction because Trump won and these are complicated issues. And so people just

haven't investigated. Also, there's a combination of a lot of propaganda uh being pushed behind the scenes and uh and these issues being technically complex. But if you could strategically use a third party and then you could throw a wrench in the works by also strategically using AI to file lawsuits all over the country without having to pay legal fees. This is now we're talking about buying some serious time. Um and so I'm going to I'll be talking a lot about this one way or the other. I mean, kind of regardless of what happens with my case, although again, I'm pretty optimistic based on even uh the language of what the uh the attorney, excuse me, the judge said in court about the lens

through which uh this case is likely to be viewed. Um and so if that's the case, if if I can beat the attorney general in federal court, then I suspect others can do the same. and uh and and and you know what I've been doing with AI, I it would take some money and some time to make it so that other people could use it, but it's not it's not a stretch. And even as I've been working, I mean, I've spent a lot of time on this. I I am going to admit it's not it's not been like a kind of a short thing. And I and I've been really studying the the laws and making sure that I understand exactly what's going on. But but in the process of doing that, I've been able to figure out

how to design systems to help um work through some of the issues that you have with AI. There's there's notorious issues. As you can imagine, AI is, you know, hallucinate all the time. So imagine you f you're in court and all of a sudden it's like, you know, you're citing Fred Flintstone versus Barney Rubble as part of your of your defense, right? People get sanctioned for this. And there are I mean they're humorous stories of of people even attorneys uh using AI and um citing non-existent cases. And so you know I learned some of this from from Mike Adams. So Mike Adams created his book recommendation engine. And that book recommendation engine you know kind of goes through line by line

and it makes sure he has all the primary source material on his hard drive. So when he's writing something and he's sourcing something it's not based on what an LLM said. It's based on what's been checked based directly against the actual primary source material. So, I've done the same thing uh with my with my lawsuit. I have all of the everything that I'm citing. I have the the source documents on my computer and it's all looked through line by line. So, there's no hallucin hallucination. And so if this is done over a long enough period of time, you know, I've got it set up obviously for New Hampshire for and for these kinds of federal cases involving election law, but there's no reason she

couldn't extend this to anything else. And it could get to the point where somebody just says, "Hey, look, this is, you know, here's my lawsuit. What are what are what are what's the what's my strongest case?" I even have the thing assess probabilities and roll out a bunch of different scenarios so I can be prepared for a lot of different things because of course the downside for me is I'm not a lawyer so whatever I whatever I'm learning I'm learning on the fly and I can learn pretty quickly but you know there's you know you don't know what you don't know so there's there's kind of a you know trying to figure out a way to uh capture that and make sure that you

don't get caught with your pants down but even even then so you could have an AI that could help as an engine draft the lawsuit But then you can actually use AI to help teach people how to handle themselves in court. And I, you know, I've seen I've been involved in situations. Uh, anybody who knows Mike Gil, I've I've seen a lot of his hearings and and and he he only plays to the camera. Like he he does the exact opposite of what you would need to do if you're in court. You need to to follow the the rules of the system, but you can use the rules of the system to your advantage. So you need to know how, you know, what do you object to? What are the conditions for this? um you there's

a lot of of basics that that you can learn and that could be packaged up to teach people that are doing these individual lawsuits or because the one thing that I've seen with with respect to activism I mean I even think about this from the standpoint of you know think about how many people in the health freedom community that have been harmed over the years and the biggest issue is always you know there's always this issue of well do you have standing to even file the lawsuit to begin with well there are a lot of people that have standing but can't afford the lawyers. But these are people that are very p, you know, very passionate. Like they'll dedicate their life to it. I mean, if their kid

has been um injured or killed as a result of, you know, liability from some big farmer product, these are people that have an ax grind, they'll go deep and do whatever they can to to get justice. Well, if you empower them with tools where they can follow based on their interest and their passion and make the legal arguments, I I think you would see I I think there could be a revolution on the basis of that. I think this this would do a terrific job rather than waiting for some white light white knight lawyer to come in and save the day because I'll tell you lawyers, you know, they'll put in as much effort but they win either way. I mean, even if they lose, if it's

high-profile and they're in the public eye, they benefit from it. I mean, there are a lot of there are a lot of lawyers that are actually fairly popular talking heads that that don't win a lot of their cases. And so, so they'll intervene in something just so that they can get the spotlight, but they their passion is not necessarily for resolving the underlying issue. people working prosay that have have standing and a real dog in the fight, if they could be empowered with tools that would allow them to express themselves the proper way within the legal system, uh those are people that could be a force to be reckoned with. So, in any event, July 15th, uh 11:00

a.m. I hope people show up. Not a huge courtroom, and I know there's already going to be a lot of press there, but um should be a pretty exciting uh event. pretty exciting hearing. And and again, if if if we prevail, I guarantee you this is going to be a national story. The whole thing, the whole story behind it, what's going on with it, the the history of it. Uh because, as I was saying earlier, it's not about me. It's about what I represent in terms of the zeitgeist of of where people are in terms of wanting to hold the party accountable. They wanted to hold people wanted to hold AayOT accountable in 2016. people want to hold technocrats in the Republican party accountable in

2026, particularly in light of the fact that the person that I'm primarily dealing with here, John E. Cenounu, uh his largest benefactor in all this is Miriam Adlesen, the same one uh that funded taking out Thomas Massie. This is that people are absolutely pissed off about what happened to Thomas Massie. Even people who just 90 days ago would have said if I if I went to them and said, "Hey, I'm thinking about doing this." Like, "Oh man, you know, no, we've got to work within the Republican party, this is our best shot." And now you look at it and you're like, if you were on board for the Ron Paul revolution, you peaked at Thomas Massie, Justin Amash, and Ran Paul. And now the

only person you have left is Ran Paul. And so now we're like 17 years into this. We're nowhere near in the Fed. There's no momentum in Congress. And there's no and in fact the best people that we have are being sniped by the establishment. Well, there's no one that is more establishment running for the seat than John Einu. This is a George HW Bush political dynasty family in New Hampshire where the guy already was a US senator, already voted for TARP, already voted for the Patriot Act, already voted for Real ID and then his net worth went from 1 million to 36 million being a lobbyist. This is not, you know, this is no, oh, well, gee, Aaron, you're in there and you're gonna you're harming a

really good Republican. This guy is actually I I think he's categorically more dangerous than the Dem because he gives the illusion of being someone that might be good on civil liberties. He's the kind of guy who will go out and take credit for, you know, passing putting in things to add civil liberties protections to the Patriot Act, but then when you actually look at what happened, it's like, no, this is the guy that snowed the whole thing over. It's possible that the Patriot Act wouldn't have been reauthorized at all, but he basically put in the lubricant uh to to, you know, uh fully roll out the surveillance state. Uh and then he tries to take credit for it. That that's what

makes him uh dangerous. This is somebody who will push more backdoor legislation in and he's proven that, you know, he's not immune to to monetizing it either. So um so this is what it represents. This is about retribution for Massie. is about saying no to Miriam Adlesen and other packs buying United States elections and it's about saying no to technocracy itself. It's about saying no to TARP and Real ID and all of these uh other other massive pieces of freedomkilling legislation. That's what the whole thing is about. So, it's not about me, but I I'm a I'm a very pure vessel to for people to register their discontent. And if people like Tucker Carlson are

talking about forming a third party, if you have people like Massie and Marjorie Taylor Green and Nick Fuentes, there's a whole movement of people, if you're listening to this and you are a Republican that are saying, listen, sometimes you've got you've got to clean your own house and get your own house in order before 2028 in this instance. like they need to uh you know it may be worth sacrificing the midterms to actually drain the swamp and there's a realization forming by many that the swamp is your own party and so this is what this race is all about which is why I believe it will be a national uh there will be a lot of national press around this and and don't get me wrong

this is going to be hell for me personally um I I've I it was not great last time either either. I don't I don't really I don't enjoy this at all. I would actually prefer to not, you know, even be a registered voter or or anything like that, but it is what it is. We're in a kind of a desperate situation. I mean, you know, I started out advocating for one crypto political prisoner and now, you know, here we are couple years later there are seven, right? I mean, this is I mean, it's getting to the point where, you know, we're going to have to make this podcast just about crypto political prisoners, which is what most of the content has been this year. And it wasn't intended to be that

way. Uh it's just these are the circumstances that we're in. We're fighting technocracy. And what's the biggest issue? One of the biggest issues that we have uh in fighting technocracy is uh is the fact that the advocates and people that build solutions have been imprisoned. uh it under horrendous circumstances and a repeatable set of circumstances and practices by the Department of Justice and FBI that frankly people need to know and understand uh because I think people would be outraged. You know, I work on these songs and I I have more coming. I' I've um I'm going to play my over-the-top campaign song on the way out. I played it at the very beginning. I would love to get your feedback on

this, but I've I've spent a lot of time updating my song creation system and video uh music video system, and I've actually merged the two together. I've been working on this for I don't know now 18 months. Like I I actually probably spend more time on that system than any other system that that I I build. And I actually had some setbacks and everything else, but now I've got it to the point where it's almost where I want it to be and and I can actually run this. it all runs on my own hardware. Um, and I think this might be one of the biggest weapons. You know, when when people say, "Well, you know, how are you going to campaign?" Um, I I understand campaigns.

I've run a super PAC. I've supported a lot of candidates. I've been a candidate myself. And again, I'm here as a protest vote, but I I believe I can use AI. Uh, you know, it was said that it when RFK or excuse me, when JFK and Nixon debated, uh, people listening to debates on the radio thought Nixon won. People who saw it on TV, uh, thought that JFK won. I think they only had one televised debate, but but it was completely lopsided because of the new medium of having the debate on television. Well, I I will tell you, I believe this race is going to be the first in a whole variety of ways. Uh, and the use of AI is going to be one of those ways. And if you go

to day2026.com, you can already see, I mean, I produce more content than probably all of the other candidates running for US Senate combined. I mean, you can go on there, there's like, you know, 12 free books. You can access 30 300 hours of my podcast content. you can see full analysis of uh legislation coming out of the United States Congress that that that tells you uh you know what what the effect of the bill is from a a variety of different dimensions around technocracy. It shows you who the lobbyists are. It specifically by name, not even just the firm, and who they represent. It allows you to track the money and uh and so I I'm just getting started. I I've I have built some things

that people haven't seen yet uh that I will I will uh unload on this campaign and I I think it will be um it will definitely be it'll be entertaining but it will be also informative. Um and I and I think it it could be a real game changer because honestly there's no one less creative than a political consultant in that's in the political consulting class. These people are are are like they're all about getting a cut of how much money you spend buying TV ads and mailers and everything else. This is just like a dead ancient uh like parasitic class of people. I I'm not hiring anybody. There's no uh there's no, you know, media team. I'm not spending any money

on actually I got something from Comcast the other day. I'm not buying a single TV ad. I'm not buying a mailer. I am going to do one of two things. I'm going to heavily use AI in a way that that no one's ever seen before. And then I'm going to do town hall meetings, but those town hall meetings are going to be about educating people about how to exit and build. It's going to be explaining technocracy and reminding people that your rights don't come from government. And that, you know, I thought it was perfect uh it was it fit great that we were able to have James Corbett on today to talk about libertas. Earth and I encourage you all to look at that because uh that resonates the the the

whole philosophy of liberty video uh that I played earlier on and I'll share it out separately as well. But that video that's important. I mean that's part of my campaign message. You you own yourself. Not a politician. You own yourself. You own your own thoughts. You own your own actions. You own your own emotions. Um and you know no one has the right to to force anything on you. You don't have the right to force anything on them. um and engage with people in a peaceful and voluntary way. I mean, that's, you know, that's part of my campaign. You don't have to vote for me to to learn that. But frankly, people have forgotten. We're in an age now where as as James said, most people don't

understand the Declaration of Independence. And I've said said on this program long before even running for office, I think twothirds of Americans can't identify all three branches of government. Um, now I think New Hampshire's built a little bit different, but even still there's been creep here. There's way too much either dependence on the federal government or belief that we can't do anything about the federal government. And to be honest, I don't know which one of those is worse. The idea that we're just going to take this proposition that, oh well, we're going to be shaken down by the federal government. They're going to take 50% of what we make and

there's nothing we can do about it. That kind of slow failed defeist thinking is not why I moved to New Hampshire. It's not why the Free State Project was started and it's not why, you know, the the tagline here is live free or die. It's not it's live free or die, not, you know, accept that the federal government's going to take 50% of your assets uh and control your life and hope that you can create and salvage the best freedom out of that set of circumstances. That's not pragmatism. That's not that's giving up. And uh so anyway, I won't uh I won't spend a lot of time dwelling on that, but it will be a a very uh it will be a very interesting campaign because I'm not

going to deviate from anything that I've been doing. Part of the aspect of this as well is not liking the political process and having wanting to get out of it and spend my time on parallel systems. I'm going to make the most of it while I'm in it. It is I've realized it's a necessary thing to do and it's a thing that I happen to be able to do uh based on my historical track record. It's something I think I can bring to bear to help um some of some of our uh causes here and and some of the people that are helping to to fight against technocracy. But I'm not going to waste time on it. I'm certainly not going to spend time, [clears throat] you know, doing what most politicians do, which is

doing polls to find out what they think people want to hear and then lying to them about it. That's effectively how political campaigns work. And it's gotten to the point now with AI and big data and everything else where it's it's really targeted. I'm going to send this mailer to this group of people based on the information that we've we've gathered and then I'm going to send this mailer. It's like, well, okay, well, why are you actually doing this? Because then in the end, when these people get elected, they didn't get elected to do those things. That was just the propaganda to get them into office. Whatever their true agenda is, we don't get to learn about until we hear about

it in the Epstein files or see their voting record. But that's, you know, in essence how this works. I'm not doing any of that. I've got people asking me, "What are your views on on this? How are you going to fix this?" I'm not going to fix anything in Washington DC. The only thing I'm going to do is the the best thing that I've seen done in politics is what Thomas Massie did with the Epstein files. I mean, it's it's been more effective than his voting record. We certainly haven't ended the Fed, but at least if people were to dwell on and analyze and keep up with and keep pushing on the Epstein files, you you would have an understanding of how power actually works in the world and how

money actually works in the world. And that that is a great gift uh that that Thomas Massie has given to all of us that that's that's all anyone that's all I could do and the and the rare occurrence that I actually won. That's it, right? There's not, you know, oh yeah, I'm going to go to Washington DC and sit down with the people protecting the Epstein's list and what are we going to do? Negotiate, compromise, come up with a bipartisan solution to what solve everybody's problems. It's it's absurd on the face of it to even suggest that such a thing is possible. You know, I'm not going to treat people like like complete idiots and lead them to believe that anything like that can happen or

that Democrats are any worse than Republicans or Republicans are any worse than Democrats. It's all the same thing. They're controlled by, you know, different interests, but actually the similar interest groups, just different people controlling those interest groups, and they're blackmailed by the same people. It's the whole thing is a um it's a dying enterprise. But in the meantime, if we don't throw a wrench in the works, we are all going to be finding ourselves in a digital prison together sooner than we think, at least those of us that make it. So, uh, so this is important and I, you know, I'm I'm going to ask for for your support in terms of getting the message out right

now. I mean, I am raising money in crypto. I'm not worried about that right now. We we'll worry about getting on the ballot first. So, that's not the big thing. And by the way, I'm also not going to be one of these I want to raise as much money as possible. I want to raise as little money as possible to do um what I need to do. But what is more effective uh as you see my campaign materials come out, share them because the campaign materials are not about me. The campaign materials are about the issues. So you're going to see as you have like that there's not much that's going to change in my content. You're going to see videos and posts and interviews about uh crypto prisoners of

war. You're going to see stuff like, you know, you know, it's not that the Corbin interview has nothing to do with my political campaign, but I'm going to continue to put out that kind of information. I'm going to put out information about how politics actually works. I'm going to play the video music video at the end. You're going to see how the Cenounu family works. Even this trying to keep me off of the ballot is a fascinating thing. I mean, it's a pretty big deal if we win in federal court, but I would argue that why it's a big deal is why is the state of New Hampshire trying so hard to keep me off of the ballot? And I know the answer, and it's completely political. It doesn't have

anything to do with statutes or the Constitution. Because understand, if if I'm successful at doing this, this is a threat to the two-party system. This is a threat to the people that control the two-party system. because it isn't about me. If you you in your state could do this, you could run as a third party candidate at various levels and where you spot a 50/50 division where both candidates are horrendous and where you know you're sick of each election being a bigger humiliation ritual than the one before it. If other people start doing this, the two-party system has a real problem. And so again, we're not going to fix politics, but man, we could slow

them down. The combination one-two punch of strategically using third parties plus weaponizing AI to empower individuals to fight the state and to fight technocrats. Man, I'm telling you, that might buy us a few years. And by the way, we need a few years at this point because 2030 is coming by 2028 unless something happens uh in real short order here. So, I think I'm in the interest of time, I've got I I'm going to not do a long Q&A today. It's 8:00, so we've gone for two hours, which is short for this show. And I may these may be short for the next um I don't know I don't know how long, but at least while the lawsuit uh is going on. Um, I may

keep them famous last words, but uh keep them around 2 hours or so. Um, just because I've got to spend a lot of time working on uh and some other things. But this podcast is going to be uh pivoting to action and I think having James on today to talk about libertas. Watch that video because it is there is action in there. The probably the most powerful thing that you can do is realize that you own yourself. That is the first step. And I actually talk about this with own nothing.com or excuse me.org. Um if you talk about reclaiming your sovereignty, yeah, privacy is great and taking control of your money is great and everything else, but if you don't take control of your own the ownership of

your own life, uh then the rest of it it doesn't mean much. Uh, and so I'm going to continue to do things like, you know, the daylight freedom phone. Um, and every week we're going to have, you know, a segment with practical advice and I'm going to bring in other people that have have explained how they've improved their own individual sovereignty to share their stories. I I do like making this uh more conversational. Sometimes there is just information that I do want to share and educate people on. Um, and then other kind of circumstances and initiatives that I have going on. Uh, but I'm going to be bringing in some other people. There's some other collaborations that

I'm going to be working on which will be announced [clears throat] shortly. So, um, so buckle up though. I'm telling you, this is going to be uh, wild. And by next week, I don't know if we're going to have an answer or not. We may very well have that the structure of the case. We're in front of a magistrate and the magistrate will will report and make a recommendation to to the to the main judge. But based on the history of what I've seen that this judge uh I haven't found any examples of where she has not taken the recommendation of the magistrate. So I may get an indication in the hearing on Wednesday at 11:00 a.m. coming out of that. We may get an indication or she may take it

under advisement and issue her uh ruling and recommendation shortly thereafter. But I will say she is fast uh and she has a history of being very responsive to election issues. I'm actually grateful for this because I' i've you know, as someone who spent five and a half years in lawsuits where there was no trial and no deposition, where the entirety of the thing was about judges getting recused and like motion play back and forth where literally 5 and a half years was spent and nothing happened. The fact that, you know, this has been accelerated and within like two weeks of me filing the thing, we're actually having the primary hearing. That's absolutely fantastic. So, it's

possible by uh next Thursday we have an outcome on this. And so, so I was going to say what the topic is going to be uh for Thursday, but I I next week, but I suspect it'll it'll be heavily driven by the outcome of that hearing if we if we have some information on that. I do want to talk about some things going on at Zeno uh next week as well. there's a um a new a new fork and there's some technical developments that are uh important and exciting in terms of uh scaling up uh Zeno in a whole variety of ways in terms of making it easier for Zeno to integrate with uh exchanges to get access to more people but then also uh some fundamental changes that are going to make the network more secure

and to increase the scalability of the network. So uh I may talk about that next week. I it depends on what goes on uh with this case. But I I'll leave you with my uh my new video. This one isn't finished. This is actually a draft. I I was working on it today. So this will this will be tweaked a little bit from uh from what you see here. Um but this is an indication of the kind of stuff uh frankly that that I want to put out there. Um because you know we need to have some some bold messaging and and I want to seize on the fact that people are sick of what's going on with the Republican party. I mean in the Democrat party as well but you know somebody says why aren't you going after the

Democrats? Well the Democrats aren't in power right now. Uh but people are very frustrated. We have a one party system all the way down the line and the results that we're getting are inverted from what we thought we were going to get. And so on the basis of that, uh, I'm going to do some hard-hitting stuff. So, I will leave you with this video and we will be back next Thursday at 6 p.m. for season 3, episode 22. Have a great night. at 1 one Senate seat going once 50/50 in the room one point in the
