Stay Free with Russell Brand

Hello You Awakening Wonder.

Thanks for reading this when you could be obediently consuming propaganda. We are living through a time of incredible change and opportunity. Many of the old systems are corrupted and broken and yet a New Spirit is being born among us.

For the first time new alliances are forming in the online world that could challenge these old and broken systems. Something ancient and original is Awakening within us. Here we can learn from elders and grow together in Good Faith, flawed but rising together.

You can also watch the show LIVE with visuals, Monday to Thursday on Rumble 6pm BST / 1pm ET

Adam Andrzejewski (Trump's charges aren't unique!) Apr 05, 2023

Show notes

Russell chats to Adam Andrzejewski from 'Open The Books', a non-partisan organization who provides facts and data to help people find truth. Last year they filed 50,000 Freedom of Information Act requests and "captured nearly every dime taxed and spent at every level of government across America." Adam shares how Trump's charges aren't unique to politics and how it's a bi-partisan issue. He tells "Mr Brand" about earmarks; a way to legally bribe members of Congress for their votes on big spending bills and why a prostate cancer drug is being sold at $190,000 despite legislation that could bring the price down.

Take a look at Adam's journalistic work, here: https://www.openthebooks.com/
