Comedian Russell Brand slammed the media and Big Tech for their coverage of the 2020 presidential race, accusing them of conspiring “to keep information away from you because it was not convenient to their agenda.”
“For me, revelations that there are financial connections between energy companies in Ukraine, energy companies in China, and the Biden family are troubling,” Brand said on his Under the Skin podcast in reference to the suppression of a bombshell report on Hunter Biden’s business dealings leading up to the election.
“That should be public knowledge,” Brand continued. “And it’s even more troubling that Twitter and Facebook and the media at large deliberately kept it out of the news because they didn’t want it to influence the election.”
Brand explained that he is not particularly a fan of former President Donald Trump and doesn’t believe he’s the “answer” but also doesn’t believe that President Joe Biden can be trusted.
“I don’t think Donald Trump’s the answer, but I’m sad to realize that I can no longer even claim to believe Joe Biden or the Democratic Party might be the answer — because look at how they behave,” Brand said. “And look at the relationships between media, social media, and that party. They conspired to keep information away from you because it was not convenient to their agenda.”

Brand continued, “The fact is that this information was stimy-stifled controlled because it didn’t suit the shared agenda of these three pillars of power. That almost concerns me more than the nature of the revelations themselves. I don’t really have high expectations of politicians. The idea that information is being controlled — that’s not democracy. That’s not freedom. That’s manipulation of elections.”
