I attended the rally and want to say to Bret, thank you so much for all the love and effort you put into this event. It was/is so important for us to gather again and to know we're not alone. It was so deeply therapeutic and so needed for the soul, to meet and talk to other like-minded human beings. I am so grateful and feel much more whole, renewed, and energized. We love you.
I was there last Sunday. really touched by the unity of everyone in the crowd. Both Trump and Kennedy supporters standing together. Everyone in the crowd seemed greatfull.
Heather and Bret thank you for creating such a beautiful space this weekend for so many people who are in need of Truth, and a vision of the future for their lives and the lives of their children and grandchildren. The American people have been abandoned, maligned, brainwashed, ripped off, and abused. We are now the slave class, but many don't get it yet. Thanks for your courage sounding the alarm
I watched online and enjoyed every minute. I am 70 and was so thankful you provided a way for me to participate. I hope to see like events in different areas of the country.
It was an absolutely wonderful event. I watched it live on UA-cam, The energy, I thought was very positive. Every speaker, entertainer doctor, congressman... you were all fantastic!
I was there. Traveled from Chicago to be there. I loved seeing everyone I follow live. Russell and Jordan riffing off each other was one of my favorite moments. Truly a diverse crowd. We can all get along even if we don’t agree.
It was an honor to bring my partner and mother to the event. The event embodied what "good" diversity looks like, built on deep principles of truth and love. Thank you for putting the whole thing together and for helping to spearhead this unifying force in the West!
The Rally was so good, so powerful,and I finally found a group of people who I am so proud to be a part of. Thank you for your gift of intelligence, wisdom and Love.
Spent all of Sunday watching Rescue the Republic. Thank you for bringing all our favorite people together to give us hope in our common citizenship. Alfred and Barrie
I am soon to be 70 years old. I have always been a misfit. Vegetarian, boycotted Nestle's, California table grapes, only use doctors for emergencies, anti war, etc. as far back as 1989. I have held that title proudly all these years and would never want to "fit in". Yeah for the misfits.
Amazing event! I traveled from Boston with my son. I felt like the luckiest parent in the world to have him there to hear so many great speeches. The line-up was SO GOOD from both my point of view and his. Great crowd. Fantastic program. My son cried when Kennedy spoke: feeling like Kennedy is fighting for him meant a lot to him. The flow of the program was excellent. Loved being in a crowd that was laughing together. Loved the idea that Goliath has scaled up, but so, too, has David. Loved Taibbi, Walter Kirn, and Heather. Fantastic idea to have a "rap battle" between Brand and Peterson. I watched that a second time. The line-up truly could not have been better. My son was particularly pleased that Brett agreed to a photo with him. Thank you! It made his day. We could not have been happier. Glad to hear there were a million people listening live. Thank you for all the work it took to put on such an ambitious event in such the perfect place for it. The gathering overwhelmingly gave me a feeling of hope.
I was there all day. It was so wonderful. First, I really admire Brett and Heather. This third time Trump voter was so impressed and inspired by your event. It was about unity, and i loved it. Everyone was great but Matt Tiabbi was particularly good. He was so spot about the nature of the American character. It made me almost cry. Thanks everyone invoved. God Bless
Grateful to have attended Rescue the Republic! The format was excellent. Having each speaker elaborate on one of the eight pillars outlined was brilliant. Jokes and music in between. Great event!
Great job! Crowd size no longer matters. Audience size does. The room is not the room. I was there but not all day. I knew I could find everything on UA-cam.
I was thinking about that but i respectfully disagree ( somewhat). If the stated 500.000 people HAD shown up it wouldve been hard to ignore it for people outside the group already involved and on board. This changes nothing. Nothing to gain only a backup for the insiders. I am disappointed. The nr of people who showed up was mindboggling low. THAT is what outsiders will take away fr it. The room might not be the room but it is still in a place foreigners wont visit and that was the aim. To gain momentum.
Not only that, it can be used by the opposition to point out that this is a paper tiger. Footage of the small crowd coupled with the huge signs, like a hyped pop concert of a selfimportant band that went south.
I watched the entire 7 hours non-stop from beginning to end, and enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you so much Bret, for the countless hours of effort and time you put into planning and organizing (along with Angela McCardle and Matt Tune) this awesome event and making it such a success. I counted it an honor to have been a part of it, even if only in the virtual world. I found each speaker and entertainer thoroughly engaging and inspiring, and the whole thing a perfect way to spend my Sunday. It was awesome.
Congratulations on your leadership and central role in creating the Rescue the Republic event! I wish I could have attended!! I'm so glad you have made the event available on line.
I’m so sorry I wasn’t present at the rally. I am in full support of this movement and have been praying for an organization that I can be a part of and embraced from like minded people. Many of of the people I’m connected to, family and close friends, are not awake. I pray for them and I love them . However I realize that I’m now an outsider that they are finding hard to understand. Common statement has been you’ve changed, what happened to you. Thank you for your honesty and hard work to bring valuable information to the people. Now I have more knowledge to share and I will continue to speak up and out. 🙏😊🙋♀️
I would answer, Yes, thank you for noticing. Whatever they do with the changes is on them and speaks volumes about their character. One doesn't need to understand nor approve of your evolution. Keep on keepin' on and maybe they'll see the light some day.
You all are incredible. I watched throughout the day on UA-cam as I moved through my day. I watched on my phone, computer and tv. Also donated. Twice. If I could’ve been there. I would have. ❤ Great Job!👏
They can call me weird all they want. The beauty of this incredibly diverse group of people united for a similar cause was awe inspiring! From this evangelical born again conservative Christian ❤❤❤
There is so much liberals, conservatives, and libertarians have in common right now. We really must unite to save the Republic, or WE WILL LOSE IT. We also have to hold Trump accountable to actually do what he said he is going to do (drain the swamp, reduce regulation, and secure the borders, etc). He cannot do what he did last time, and coast, he's got to hit the ground running, and he has to take advantage of all the people on his team, Vance, Musk, RFK jr, Ramaswamy, Gabbard, Paul, and many others who understand the danger we're in if we don't move fast. We have to drain the rot, it will be painful, there will be many who complain, and the intuitions will be against us.
IT was great for me as a Canadian to watch such wonderful speakers. Found you both at the start of Covid and have kept you front and centre on that "dial" LOL! We need folks like you to help rescue us from Tru-deau!
Well done Bret and Heather. The Unity Movement is a great concept and is sure to pick up traction and momentum in 2024/25. You need to take it global. 😊
❤❤❤❤ True Hero’s. I’m from CA and I couldn’t go but I donated and bought some merch to show support and I’m am spreading the word everyday. Thank you guys!!!
My life changed in a sociology course when The Power Elite was required reading. C. Wright Mills described and explained so much of our system as far back as the 1950's.
I would’ve loved to be there! So sorry I couldn’t make it. I watched it all online and very much enjoyed all the speakers. Thank you so much for all that you two are doing. Love you both! ♥️
I am proud to be weird! Thanks so much guys! I actually considered coming to Washington, which would have been an 8h flight. So I was happy I could follow this on UA-cam instead!
I'm gonna say the crowd peaked at about 5,000. That is disappointing given that Trump alone can draw more. The problem is, so many people say "I'd like to go, but ...". I only got past the "but" 5 days before. Each person there got past the "but.". It was a FANTASTIC event!
Problem is, that location is Mordor itself. And then there was bad weather on top of it. Should have turned it into a weekend festival, for people to party and network and celebrate, with good weather - perhaps Austin TX and get Joe Rogan involved.
I heard at least 30,000 or more at peak. The hurrican hit several states and like stopped thousands more from going. The political prisoners Democrats still hold unjustly in jail from January 6th no doubt discourage others. It is a mark of how bad things are when fear of the goverment keeps people from showing up at our Capital. This event may help reclaim our Capital back for the people of the USA.
It totally felt like community. Every speaker every entertainer was engaging. I listen to every word. Sometimes these kinds of things you can zone out, but everything was so interesting and focused. I think because it’s such a critical place that we are at as a country. Thank you for putting this together! I hope you got at least your 500,000 you were looking for.
James Lindsay has an excellent short essay on his channel (in what is called "Bullets") called, "Nullification". Definitely worth the 15 or so minutes to listen to. While most of media just ignored, the "journalist" seems to have gone for a headline in order to dismiss, and therefore nullify the event's legitimacy or importance. It's stuff of scoundrels.
Sounds like what they called "pre-bunking". I also think these are unethical forms of manipulation. I like reading Machiavelli to be able to recognise how people manipulate others. But I fully disagree with him for using these tactics even if for good. Because if you're not virtuous in your actions, how can you be good?
Interesting--we're a little too far away to have gotten there easily by the time we knew about, but did still consider it. What I noticed before, during, and after, and what really shouldn't even be surprising at this point, was the TOTAL SILENCE about it in our so-called 'media'. If this doesn't fully illustrate what lack of free press looks like, and if the significance of that escapes people, we're toast. Thank you both for having the courage to have these honest conversations and continuing to bring light to these matters.
The article by the World Street Journal. The Question to the author, did they actually attend, how long were they there? If they attended and asked questions to attendees..their article would be so different. I am from Australia and have tuned into at least 5 of your speakers. Yes...food is so crucial to health and the USA would save money and time, with nutrition for children growing into adults. Yes....please continue your attempt to bring in Sanity. Support from Australia 🇦🇺
This was a brilliant gathering. I appreciated the minds and voices that contributed to unity. Those who don't live in harmony within themselves will destroy the very environments they will never feel part of. There are those who use their thoughts and deeds for good purposes and those who find fault in everything. I have a friend who strongly feels that J.D. Vance, following last night's debate, is a programmed, cold, calculating machine. The undisciplined mind will never learn how to use their own minds.
IMO JD Vance showed great restraint! He was fully in control of his emotions and his mouth, and did not allow Walz's lies and insults to get him worked up. He gave direct, concise and matter-of-fact responses, even in the face of the moderator repeatedly interrupting him. Where I come from, that's called maturity!!
I watched big chunks of the rally from the comfort of my Australian sofa and found it inspiring. Although I didn’t appreciate Russell Brand’s evangelical contribution particularly. But free speech is free speech! You are providing a home for the politically homeless and please never underestimate the power of what you’re doing. Here’s to being WEIRD 🥂 as an acronym and an epithet.
I watched it on UA-cam in sections. I could not find the live, and I could not find the full video. But I did find many of the speakers and some of the music. As such, it was disjointed, but just as impactful!!! Thank you Bret for hosting the Rescue the Republic rally!!
I also did not know about the event until the week of. I follow so many who spoke , so very strange to have no knowledge about the event!!! Thank you for your work to make this movement a real thing!!!
If all of us like minded individuals could organize and make our own cities to live together, we'd be the biggest threat imaginable to the establishment. That is the challenge that we should put ahead of us. The true first step to overcoming this paradigm would be to make that happen.
It was amazing that Bret managed to get together that wonderful bunch of speakers for the rally. Too bad that the downregulation of most of the speakers on the internet resulted in a low turnout. Gosh was I hoping from here in the Netherlands that your capital would be overrun by people that have woken up. But allas, Bret was great, the speakers were great, the American population just dissapoints me massively. And what nasty comments here.. what the hell.
The real resistance isn't going to 'protest' at a hell-hole like Washington DC. It isn't going to have comedians and lame musicians entertaining a crowd in a field. It's not a bunch of leftists who would still be leftists were it not for how leftism is being exposed by the deranged radicals. Don't give up on America just yet. Right now we're merely exhausting the conventional options so that people can finally wake up to realize that the conventional options won't work. Especially from leftism-lite. The real resistance are the people that the matrix/mainstream media has been so desperately vilifying as 'fascists' and 'nazis' and 'bigots' etc., because they don't want the normies of society to have any trust or respect for them. The people at this rally are little more than sheltered dilettantes with feminized cognition, ultimately.
@@c3bhm It’s sad really, that a couple of sheltered intellectuals, stumbled onto a Truth that they just couldn’t deny, so they lost their high status and comfortable lives. But it led them to more & more truths until they saw it. Then you can’t unsee it. What’s funny, is a lot of far less educated people, have known what’s been happening for quite awhile. What’s frightening, is if these same people were super wealthy, they would have known about it their whole lives, and would be part of ones doing it, but for the good of mankind of course. I see the world as goats and sheep. A goat can get red pilled, but they’re still not a sheep. Their intellectual egos and lack of humility just won’t allow it, as evidenced by their TDS. I pray that guy is wrong about JD Vance. It would be like having Nikki Halley for VP. No one is trying to assassinate either of them. But they’re SO smart, why can’t they see that?
I was there. Seeing everyone in person was really great. Weather held out but ground was saturated from days of rain by the remnants of Helen. But still worth coming for.
I really don't understand the left's reaction to the unity movement. I heard people talk about the importance of free speech. I heard people talking about not blindly following government authority. I heard people talk about protecting our constitutional rights, about working towards global peace instead of forever wars and bloodshed, about freeing ourselves from big food, big pharma, and the military industrial complex. These all use to be liberal values, what gives?
What gives is that the left has become the party of big money, big control, big pharma, big war, and Marxist communism!! They have shifted so far left, that they have become unrecognizable!!! I refer you to a crude drawing made by Elon that concisely depicts exactly what I'm talking about!!
I can guarantee you almost no average Americans knew what Rescue the Republic was, or that anything was even happening that day. Don't get me wrong, I completely agree with and support the message, and admire many of the people who attended (including yourselves), but I think it incredibly naive to imagine it had much of a real impact on the minds of most Americans.
SOOO DELIGHTED all went so well in DC. A brave undertaking for you two personally, and for all who presented and participated. Speaks volumes that two credentialed, politically centred scientists feel it necessary to even organise such an event. The vacuum and division created by the (imho) deliberate departure from balanced centerist politics is visible and palpable. So well done to all of for taking such great steps to recreate unity and sime degree of normality 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Loved the rally. FYI, I was able to see the whole thing live on Bret's channel on UA-cam on both my phone and ipad. (Side note: your course was the first one i took on PA. You are phenomenal teachers!)
"Coalition of the Weird" is a fun badge of honor. It's also, Ironically, something that I believe liberals from a decade ago would have said about themselves with pride.
Though I agree the event was suppressed in the media, I believe the reason for the lack of turn out is mainly due to apathy, even among supporters, and the feeling that, "great, there's this event happening in DC. What difference does it make if I show up? Everything's going to stay the same anyway." And I fear that will be the case.
Not quite the 'march to Washington'now, was it!? People made a real effort back then. Now it's zero effort and virtue signalling from afar. Disappointing.
When my sister called and asked me what I was doing, I mentioned that I was watching the rescue the republic and forgot that she was very blue as I used to be until they changed, and her whole attitude changed! So she hung up quickly. And now she’s not talking to me! I forgot I wasn’t supposed to talk about politics! I am open and curious about what is happening!
Sorry you seem to be cut off from your sister, but keep doing what you're doing! If they can't see the importance of unity over being "right (left)" then they're not your people, even if they share DNA. Hopefully your example of staying curious and growing your understanding of things will shine for them to find the light too.
As an Australian, I knew it was happening. I've noticed stuff like that happens a lot. A significant event will happen in the US (I'm thinking of a certain sad death that occurred in the street of a city in the year of your last election. You now have statues in the street to that criminal, drug addict and pregnant woman assaulter. Australia had a lot of footage that was clearly not available to you, even in the year and at the time that it occured.
A brilliant event, I love watching little snatches of it on UA-cam, Jimmy Dore was dangerously funny and on point. High Point, though was Jordan Peterson and Russell Brand,, They were really on individually and collaboratively Brett, I’m grateful that you helped put this together, was so worth it, and it was history making for its truth in the telling.
Brilliant! Uniting and appreciating differences. Everyone wants calm and peace then lets move towards looking at what we have in common. Let's move from division to understanding.
Thank you so much Darkhorse team & beautiful beings. Did not align with all speakers Rescue...& Have not heard all. Loved Tennessee Jet music & another 2 guys forgot names. I listen to here & there with a bipartisan/violet pill mind. Over time I feel change needs come from outside the 2 bifurcated parties. None of us have 'the' solution for our world. However as I listen to many diverse voices what rings out amongst us all is ' the people need to take back our power'. My ? Is what power & who's power? Blessings on your journey...keep on keeping on✨🪶✨
Saw the event on you tube, brilliant. If only we could organise the same in UK. Very impressive. We in ukr are going down the pan. Love Bret and Heather. Fab work. Love from Scotland ❤❤❤
I had no idea about Drea de Matteo until i kept seeing her same associated with RTR on twitter and youtube over and over again. So glad to hear this. Keep on keepin' on.
Unfortunately, not a single voter's mind was changed due to this event. Had you all gone to PA, MI, WI or AZ to register voters, time would have been better spent.
My issue is i dont have any friends or family who see things the way i do. But family runs deep and i want to open their eyes. But i am losing this fight every day. Now i am getting depressed and hopeless that they will never wake up. Either i leave my family behind or hide my true self. It is a lose lose
You are not alone Kevin! Many of us are trying to wake up our families in the same way, sadly, getting the same results!! Many will not wake up until it is too late!! To preserve my family relations, I have to not talk about it. Unless one of them brings it up, and then it's on... I have taken to calling one of my male family members an ostrich, because he's got his head in the sand!!!
🙏💓🙏👑UNITED WE STAND 🙏💓🙏👑POSITIVE PRAYERS GOING OUT FOR HUMANITY'S WELL-BEING THANK YOU ALL BEAUTIFUL HEARTS AROUND OUR BEAUTIFUL WORLD WE ARE BLESSED🙏💓🙏THANK YOU ALL 👑🙏💓🙏💔❤️🩹♥️ AMEN AMEN & AMEN 🙏💓🙏

They can call me weird all they want. The beauty of this incredibly diverse group of people united for a similar cause was awe inspiring! From this evangelical born again conservative Christian ❤❤❤
It was a great event Bret,
I tried to watch as much as I could,
despite the cancel culture and censorship industrial complex
MATT Taibbi was excellent! Pretty good for such a humble person.
There is so much liberals, conservatives, and libertarians have in common right now. We really must unite to save the Republic, or WE WILL LOSE IT. We also have to hold Trump accountable to actually do what he said he is going to do (drain the swamp, reduce regulation, and secure the borders, etc). He cannot do what he did last time, and coast, he's got to hit the ground running, and he has to take advantage of all the people on his team, Vance, Musk, RFK jr, Ramaswamy, Gabbard, Paul, and many others who understand the danger we're in if we don't move fast. We have to drain the rot, it will be painful, there will be many who complain, and the intuitions will be against us.
"Pack them all into a rocket and fly them into the fucking sun!!" Matt Taibbi had the best line of the day!!! 👏👏👏
He rocked. His contribution was my favorite.
I was riveted by the stream. What an amazing cavalcade of thoughtful and intelligent humanoids!!!
Thank you guys for going to all the hard work to help save the USA.
IT was great for me as a Canadian to watch such wonderful speakers. Found you both at the start of Covid and have kept you front and centre on that "dial" LOL! We need folks like you to help rescue us from Tru-deau!
What an amazing event. So glad to know I'm not alone
I've never been somewhere the crowd was so knowledgeable and informed about numerous issues
Well done Bret and Heather. The Unity Movement is a great concept and is sure to pick up traction and momentum in 2024/25. You need to take it global. 😊
Loved being at the rally - Great day, inspiring speakers! Thank you both so much! You shine ❤❤
❤❤❤❤ True Hero’s. I’m from CA and I couldn’t go but I donated and bought some merch to show support and I’m am spreading the word everyday. Thank you guys!!!
Watched the entire event online. It was amazing and thanks so much for all the work to plan and execute it. So grateful to you both.
Feel wierdly united ...greetings from Europe
Thank you for all the work and effort you put into Sunday. I have not felt so much hope for our future in quite some time!
Thanks for that rally. I truly hope this movement can grow and be successful.
I watched online and was very impressed by it all. Congratulations on a great unifying event! I really got a kick out of Matt’s speech. ❤️
My life changed in a sociology course when The Power Elite was required reading. C. Wright Mills described and explained so much of our system as far back as the 1950's.
Thank you, thank you for what you did with the rally!
I would’ve loved to be there! So sorry I couldn’t make it. I watched it all online and very much enjoyed all the speakers. Thank you so much for all that you two are doing. Love you both! ♥️
I watched the rally. So well done! 3:31 Fabulous! Heather, I thoroughly enjoyed your speech. The tide is turning.
I am proud to be weird! Thanks so much guys! I actually considered coming to Washington, which would have been an 8h flight. So I was happy I could follow this on UA-cam instead!
I'm gonna say the crowd peaked at about 5,000. That is disappointing given that Trump alone can draw more.
The problem is, so many people say "I'd like to go, but ...". I only got past the "but" 5 days before. Each person there got past the "but.". It was a FANTASTIC event!
Problem is, that location is Mordor itself. And then there was bad weather on top of it. Should have turned it into a weekend festival, for people to party and network and celebrate, with good weather - perhaps Austin TX and get Joe Rogan involved.
I heard at least 30,000 or more at peak. The hurrican hit several states and like stopped thousands more from going. The political prisoners Democrats still hold unjustly in jail from January 6th no doubt discourage others. It is a mark of how bad things are when fear of the goverment keeps people from showing up at our Capital. This event may help reclaim our Capital back for the people of the USA.
If it was in the western part of the US I would have gone and brought my dog
It totally felt like community. Every speaker every entertainer was engaging. I listen to every word. Sometimes these kinds of things you can zone out, but everything was so interesting and focused. I think because it’s such a critical place that we are at as a country. Thank you for putting this together! I hope you got at least your 500,000 you were looking for.
James Lindsay has an excellent short essay on his channel (in what is called "Bullets") called, "Nullification". Definitely worth the 15 or so minutes to listen to. While most of media just ignored, the "journalist" seems to have gone for a headline in order to dismiss, and therefore nullify the event's legitimacy or importance. It's stuff of scoundrels.
Sounds like what they called "pre-bunking". I also think these are unethical forms of manipulation. I like reading Machiavelli to be able to recognise how people manipulate others. But I fully disagree with him for using these tactics even if for good. Because if you're not virtuous in your actions, how can you be good?
“Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee.” -- St. Augustine
Interesting--we're a little too far away to have gotten there easily by the time we knew about, but did still consider it. What I noticed before, during, and after, and what really shouldn't even be surprising at this point, was the TOTAL SILENCE about it in our so-called 'media'. If this doesn't fully illustrate what lack of free press looks like, and if the significance of that escapes people, we're toast. Thank you both for having the courage to have these honest conversations and continuing to bring light to these matters.
The article by the World Street Journal. The Question to the author, did they actually attend, how long were they there? If they attended and asked questions to attendees..their article would be so different. I am from Australia and have tuned into at least 5 of your speakers. Yes...food is so crucial to health and the USA would save money and time, with nutrition for children growing into adults. Yes....please continue your attempt to bring in Sanity. Support from Australia 🇦🇺
You are correct about the shared values outweighing opposing views. MAHA🇺🇸
P.S. Walz is an utter embarrassment to us here in the upper midwest!
This was a brilliant gathering. I appreciated the minds and voices that contributed to unity. Those who don't live in harmony within themselves will destroy the very environments they will never feel part of. There are those who use their thoughts and deeds for good purposes and those who find fault in everything. I have a friend who strongly feels that J.D. Vance, following last night's debate, is a programmed, cold, calculating machine. The undisciplined mind will never learn how to use their own minds.
I didn’t know anything about Vance till he was announced. He sure wasn’t my choice. Trump was already burned once by Pence.
IMO JD Vance showed great restraint! He was fully in control of his emotions and his mouth, and did not allow Walz's lies and insults to get him worked up. He gave direct, concise and matter-of-fact responses, even in the face of the moderator repeatedly interrupting him. Where I come from, that's called maturity!!
You guys rock, thanks for all that you’ve done for us misfits😍
#BlessedBeThee🦋
I watched big chunks of the rally from the comfort of my Australian sofa and found it inspiring. Although I didn’t appreciate Russell Brand’s evangelical contribution particularly. But free speech is free speech! You are providing a home for the politically homeless and please never underestimate the power of what you’re doing. Here’s to being WEIRD 🥂 as an acronym and an epithet.
Thank you, I streamed the Rescue and am incredibly appreciative ❤️
I’m so grateful that I found this channel.
Great job! I think that every American with a brain was impressed by this movement.
I watched it on UA-cam in sections. I could not find the live, and I could not find the full video. But I did find many of the speakers and some of the music. As such, it was disjointed, but just as impactful!!! Thank you Bret for hosting the Rescue the Republic rally!!
If weird is not part of the current social norm, then I will gladly accept weird.
In light of the current climate, Keep Patriotism Weird.
I also did not know about the event until the week of. I follow so many who spoke , so very strange to have no knowledge about the event!!! Thank you for your work to make this movement a real thing!!!
Vance won the VP debate. MAGA & MAHA are on the roll!!!
I follow you both and was well informed about the meeting. I followed from Italy online. It was exhilarating! Thank you so much.
You are such a great couple. The rally was wonderful.
If all of us like minded individuals could organize and make our own cities to live together, we'd be the biggest threat imaginable to the establishment. That is the challenge that we should put ahead of us. The true first step to overcoming this paradigm would be to make that happen.
Love you both! Bret thank you, George, Thomas and Alexander thank you as well.
And both of you spoke beautifully!!
It was my very first rally, and I enjoyed every minute. Thank you both for standing up for what's right.
"Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise” Thomas Gray. Pertains especially to that WSJ editorial.
It was amazing that Bret managed to get together that wonderful bunch of speakers for the rally. Too bad that the downregulation of most of the speakers on the internet resulted in a low turnout. Gosh was I hoping from here in the Netherlands that your capital would be overrun by people that have woken up. But allas, Bret was great, the speakers were great, the American population just dissapoints me massively. And what nasty comments here.. what the hell.
The real resistance isn't going to 'protest' at a hell-hole like Washington DC. It isn't going to have comedians and lame musicians entertaining a crowd in a field. It's not a bunch of leftists who would still be leftists were it not for how leftism is being exposed by the deranged radicals. Don't give up on America just yet. Right now we're merely exhausting the conventional options so that people can finally wake up to realize that the conventional options won't work. Especially from leftism-lite. The real resistance are the people that the matrix/mainstream media has been so desperately vilifying as 'fascists' and 'nazis' and 'bigots' etc., because they don't want the normies of society to have any trust or respect for them. The people at this rally are little more than sheltered dilettantes with feminized cognition, ultimately.

It’s sad really, that a couple of sheltered intellectuals, stumbled onto a Truth that they just couldn’t deny, so they lost their high status and comfortable lives. But it led them to more & more truths until they saw it. Then you can’t unsee it.
What’s funny, is a lot of far less educated people, have known what’s been happening for quite awhile.
What’s frightening, is if these same people were super wealthy, they would have known about it their whole lives, and would be part of ones doing it, but for the good of mankind of course.
I see the world as goats and sheep. A goat can get red pilled, but they’re still not a sheep. Their intellectual egos and lack of humility just won’t allow it, as evidenced by their TDS.
I pray that guy is wrong about JD Vance.
It would be like having Nikki Halley for VP. No one is trying to assassinate either of them. But they’re SO smart, why can’t they see that?
I was there. Seeing everyone in person was really great. Weather held out but ground was saturated from days of rain by the remnants of Helen. But still worth coming for.
I really don't understand the left's reaction to the unity movement. I heard people talk about the importance of free speech. I heard people talking about not blindly following government authority. I heard people talk about protecting our constitutional rights, about working towards global peace instead of forever wars and bloodshed, about freeing ourselves from big food, big pharma, and the military industrial complex. These all use to be liberal values, what gives?
What gives is that the left has become the party of big money, big control, big pharma, big war, and Marxist communism!! They have shifted so far left, that they have become unrecognizable!!! I refer you to a crude drawing made by Elon that concisely depicts exactly what I'm talking about!!
I think the unity movement has rejected the left and embraced the right.
Molly Ball is a prime example why, after 40 years as a registered Democrat, I am walking away from my party.
I can guarantee you almost no average Americans knew what Rescue the Republic was, or that anything was even happening that day. Don't get me wrong, I completely agree with and support the message, and admire many of the people who attended (including yourselves), but I think it incredibly naive to imagine it had much of a real impact on the minds of most Americans.
It was like 'pat yourselves on the back' day.
Exceptional event!! Well done, thank you for all the hard work.
SOOO DELIGHTED all went so well in DC. A brave undertaking for you two personally, and for all who presented and participated. Speaks volumes that two credentialed, politically centred scientists feel it necessary to even organise such an event. The vacuum and division created by the (imho) deliberate departure from balanced centerist politics is visible and palpable. So well done to all of for taking such great steps to recreate unity and sime degree of normality 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Watched Brett’s speech at the rally💪🏻🎉❤
Loved the rally. FYI, I was able to see the whole thing live on Bret's channel on UA-cam on both my phone and ipad. (Side note: your course was the first one i took on PA. You are phenomenal teachers!)
"Coalition of the Weird" is a fun badge of honor. It's also, Ironically, something that I believe liberals from a decade ago would have said about themselves with pride.
Isn't it awe inspiring to see how they've backed away from their opposition so hard they've backed ass-backward into one another?
Congrats! Thank you for doing that! I listened to the whole event on Sunday. I hope you were able to meet your fundraising goal.
I hope they keep the site up to donate. I would like to contribute, but I am so broke, I will have to save a couple of months to be able to give.
Thank you for coming to 1:46 DC. I couldn’t get there til the last hour but i thoroughly enjoyed it all. Most online. But still was great!!!❤❤❤
I wish I could have gone, but it was my weekend to work
Though I agree the event was suppressed in the media, I believe the reason for the lack of turn out is mainly due to apathy, even among supporters, and the feeling that, "great, there's this event happening in DC. What difference does it make if I show up? Everything's going to stay the same anyway."
And I fear that will be the case.
Not quite the 'march to Washington'now, was it!? People made a real effort back then. Now it's zero effort and virtue signalling from afar. Disappointing.
When my sister called and asked me what I was doing, I mentioned that I was watching the rescue the republic and forgot that she was very blue as I used to be until they changed, and her whole attitude changed! So she hung up quickly. And now she’s not talking to me! I forgot I wasn’t supposed to talk about politics! I am open and curious about what is happening!
Sorry you seem to be cut off from your sister, but keep doing what you're doing! If they can't see the importance of unity over being "right (left)" then they're not your people, even if they share DNA. Hopefully your example of staying curious and growing your understanding of things will shine for them to find the light too.
As an Australian, I knew it was happening. I've noticed stuff like that happens a lot. A significant event will happen in the US (I'm thinking of a certain sad death that occurred in the street of a city in the year of your last election. You now have statues in the street to that criminal, drug addict and pregnant woman assaulter. Australia had a lot of footage that was clearly not available to you, even in the year and at the time that it occured.
Lab leak and laptops were also reported much differently in Australia.
Love you both. 💕Thanks for your sense of humor and good work in the world. 🌷✨
A brilliant event, I love watching little snatches of it on UA-cam, Jimmy Dore was dangerously funny and on point. High Point, though was Jordan Peterson and Russell Brand,, They were really on individually and collaboratively Brett, I’m grateful that you helped put this together, was so worth it, and it was history making for its truth in the telling.
Brilliant! Uniting and appreciating differences. Everyone wants calm and peace then lets move towards looking at what we have in common. Let's move from division to understanding.
Thank you so much Darkhorse team & beautiful beings. Did not align with all speakers Rescue...& Have not heard all. Loved Tennessee Jet music & another 2 guys forgot names.
I listen to here & there with a bipartisan/violet pill mind. Over time I feel change needs come from outside the 2 bifurcated parties. None of us have 'the' solution for our world. However as I listen to many diverse voices what rings out amongst us all is ' the people need to take back our power'. My ? Is what power & who's power? Blessings on your journey...keep on keeping on✨🪶✨
Saw the event on you tube, brilliant. If only we could organise the same in UK. Very impressive. We in ukr are going down the pan. Love Bret and Heather. Fab work. Love from Scotland ❤❤❤
I had no idea about Drea de Matteo until i kept seeing her same associated with RTR on twitter and youtube over and over again. So glad to hear this. Keep on keepin' on.
Unfortunately, not a single voter's mind was changed due to this event. Had you all gone to PA, MI, WI or AZ to register voters, time would have been better spent.
My issue is i dont have any friends or family who see things the way i do.
But family runs deep and i want to open their eyes. But i am losing this fight every day.
Now i am getting depressed and hopeless that they will never wake up. Either i leave my family behind or hide my true self. It is a lose lose
sounds like you're vulnerable to cult tactics
Life is a fight against death and yet the result is a given
You are not alone Kevin! Many of us are trying to wake up our families in the same way, sadly, getting the same results!! Many will not wake up until it is too late!! To preserve my family relations, I have to not talk about it. Unless one of them brings it up, and then it's on... I have taken to calling one of my male family members an ostrich, because he's got his head in the sand!!!
