Rumble, an extreme right-wing video-sharing platform that was the official livestreaming partner of the 2024 Republican presidential primary debates, has an “editor picks” section of its site — an apparently curated list that highlights and promotes specific videos. Rumble’s own source code says the section has “the absolute real best of Rumble.com,” and Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski has said that he has “personally” and “manually” featured content in the section.

An ongoing Media Matters review since June 2023 has found that the “editor picks” section has repeatedly featured conspiracy theory content.

Below are conspiracy theories — and the videos pushing them — that have been featured in Rumble’s “editor picks.”

Jump to section

QAnon conspiracy theory

June 12, 2023: Rumble selected an episode of a show from Badlands Media, a channel affiliated with the QAnon conspiracy theory, as one of its “editor picks.” The specific show, Eye of the Storm, was dedicated to “dissecting the Q Drops from the start” and discussed on-screen images of posts from QAnon’s central figure. [Media Matters, 6/14/23; Twitter/X, 6/12/23]

Mass shooting false flag conspiracy theory

August 30, 2023: Among its “editor picks,” Rumble selected a video that suggested that a racist mass shooting in Jacksonville, Florida, may have been a false flag operation. The video titled “MUGshot Sets Off False Flags ReeEEeE Stream 08-27-23” was from far-right figure “TheSaltyCracker,” who previously amplified conspiracy theories and harmful rhetoric. The video claimed that the Jacksonville shooting “could be a false flag” and that “the timing” of the event was “incredibly weird.” [Media Matters, 8/30/23, 9/9/19, 7/20/22]

9/11 Trutherism

September 11, 2023: During the week of the 22nd anniversary of the September 11 attacks, Rumble selected multiple videos as “editor picks” that pushed false conspiracy theories about the attacks. One video, in part titled “The Shocking Masterminds Behind 9/11,” had as its description, “Kevin explores, in a very fact based way, who could have been behind the 9/11 plot and he mostly points to Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld,” referring to the then-vice president and then-secretary of defense. Another video featuring the attacks in its thumbnail was from Rumble Exclusives channel The Quartering and falsely claimed that World Trade Center Building 7 was demolished by pre-rigged explosives. The host described the theory as “pretty interesting” and “stuff that we can only talk about on Rumble.” (In December 2022, before the channel announced it would be going “live on Rumble, exclusively,” Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski said Rumble would “definitely” put the channel “in editor picks if he multicasts it to Rumble.“) [Media Matters, 4/11/23, 9/14/23; Twitter/X, 12/23/22]

Conspiracy theories tied to antisemitism

December 4, 2023: Among its “editor picks,” Rumble selected a video about supposed “lizard people” controlling the world, which is a conspiracy theory that has been tied to violence and antisemitism. During the video, titled “Lizard Climate Scam ReeEEeE Stream 12-03-23,” far-right figure “TheSaltyCracker” claimed that “you just saw all these lizard people fly in to Munich, Germany, on private jets screaming about … climate change,” and that “every single apparatus of lizard person fucking monstrosities are throwing everything that they got against Donald Trump.” The video’s thumbnail also featured an image of King Charles III with a long cartoon tongue sticking out, apparently in reference to the conspiracy theory.

March 11, 2024: Rumble selected as one of its “editor picks” a video with a thumbnail that features an image of billionaire philanthropist George Soros holding puppet strings — an antisemitic trope. The video’s host described Soros as “one guy that I know is causing mass destruction” and falsely claimed that Soros said “destroying America will be the culmination of my life’s work.” The video’s description also claims that Soros “has been single-handedly influencing the political arena in many of our failing major cities from the shadows.” [Rumble, 3/8/23, accessed 3/12/24, accessed 3/12/24; The Forward, 7/12/23; Reuters, 6/18/20]

Conspiracy theory that Taylor Swift is a “psyop” and “a fed”

January 10, 2024: Among its “editor picks,” Rumble selected a video promoting the conspiracy theory that pop star Taylor Swift is a “psyop” and “a fed.” The video was titled in part “T-Swift is a PSY-OP!!,” featured Swift in its thumbnail image alongside the text “T Swift a fed??” and the video description included, “Are the FEDS using Taylor Swift as a Psy-op agent? We Will discuss the possibility today.” The video claimed that Swift could be “a psyop devil for the government,” adding that she is “almost omnipresent, like a demon would be,” and cited a false segment from Fox News as evidence suggesting that the Department of Defense is using Swift as an “asset” for “combatting online misinformation.” [Media Matters, 1/10/24]

Anti-trans Michelle Obama conspiracy theory

February 12, 2024: Rumble selected a video featuring a baseless anti-trans conspiracy theory that former first lady Michelle Obama is secretly a man as one of its “editor picks.” The video from the right-wing show The Conservative Podcast was titled in part “Michelle Obama is a Man.” In the video, co-host Shane Ginsberg (known online as “shaneyyricch”) asked if his fellow co-host Elan Brooks thought “Michelle Obama is a man.” In response, Brooks called it “a good question.” [Media Matters, 2/13/24]

Flat Earth conspiracy theory

February 26, 2024: Among its “editor picks,” Rumble selected a video that was titled in part “The Earth is Flat.” In the video, also from The Conservative Podcast, Brooks said, “Some people are of the mindset that the Earth is actually a flat plane, and not a spinning globe,” an idea he called an “interesting kind of concept.” He also cited The Simpsons, the Bible, and the late German rocket engineer Wernher von Braun as possible evidence for the conspiracy theory that “we have a dome.” [Media Matters, 2/28/24]

Chemtrails conspiracy theory

February 29, 2024: Rumble selected a video pushing the chemtrails conspiracy theory as one of its “editor picks.” The conspiracy theory baselessly claims that contrails in the sky are actually from the government spraying chemicals into the air for various nefarious purposes, such as weather or mind control. The video’s title — “Climate Change Pushers Actually MANIPULATING The Weather. What Are They Spraying In Our Skies?” — pushed the conspiracy theory, and host Kim Iversen said, “People have been telling me, ‘Kim, look into chemtrails. Look into geoengineering,’ right?” [CNN, 3/12/24; Rumble, The Kim Iversen Show, 2/28/24]

JUST A SLUR TO THROW LIKE PUTIN NAZI?

Rumble, an extreme right-wing video-sharing platform that has been the official streaming site of the 2024 Republican presidential primary debates, on December 4 listed as one of its “editor picks” a video featuring a conspiracy theory about supposed “lizard people” controlling the world.

The lizard people conspiracy theory, also known as the reptilian conspiracy theory, was popularized by infamous conspiracy theorist David Icke. Business Insider noted the likely antisemitic background of the concept, noting that Icke’s written commentary about the conspiracy theory is “clearly evocative of the centuries-old blood-libel conspiracy theory, which alleged that a cabal of Jews were controlling the world and drinking the blood of Christian children.” The lizard people conspiracy theory has also been tied to multiple violent incidents, including a man who killed his brother with a sword in 2019 anda man who exploded his recreational vehicle in downtown Nashville in 2020.

Rumble’s “editor picks” section is apparently curated to highlight specific videos available on the platform. A video titled “Lizard Climate Scam ReeEEeE Stream 12-03-23” was featured in Rumble’s “editor picks” section on December 4. The video was posted by “TheSaltyCracker,” who has amplified conspiracy theories and harmful rhetoric before. The thumbnail features an image of King Charles III with a long cartoon tongue sticking out, seemingly a reference to the conspiracy theory about lizard people.

CitationScreenshot of Rumble's "editor picks" section taken on December 4, 2023

During the video, “TheSaltyCracker” criticized attendees of COP28, the United Nations' annual climate summit, saying that “you just saw all these lizard people fly in to Munich, Germany, on private jets screaming about … climate change. They don’t care about climate change. It’s a scam.”

CitationFrom a video uploaded to Rumble on December 3, 2023

“THESALTYCRACKER”: But look the hell around. These people lied about everything. Lied about everything. They tell you about the polar bears, the polar ice. They say, “No, go out there and take a bunch of experimental vaccines. Everything's going to be totally fine.” Nope. I’m good. I’m good. Also, don't worry about all the stabbings. I’m worried about all the stabbings. There’s a lot of stabbings popping off lately. I’ve worried about a wide open border. “No, there’s no such thing as an open border.”

These fucking people are lying about everything. Everything they tell you to not be worried about, be worried about. Everything they tell you to be worried about, it’s a fucking scam. It’s a total scam. You just saw all these lizard people fly in to Munich, Germany, on private jets screaming about [unintelligible] climate change. They don’t care about climate change. It’s a scam. It’s a straight up scam.

He also criticized King Charles III for calling for action to address climate change in a speech at the summit, claiming that he has “tiny lizard balls.”

“TheSaltyCracker” also attacked former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) for her criticism of former President Donald Trump, claiming that “every single apparatus of lizard person fucking monstrosities are throwing everything that they got against Donald Trump.”

CitationFrom a video uploaded to Rumble on December 3, 2023

“THESALTYCRACKER”: By the way, you were on the receiving end of this, you dumb cow, you Miss Piggy-looking son of a bitch. We told you. We don’t give a fuck. We don’t care who hates Donald Trump. We don’t care who likes Donald Trump. We just understand that every single apparatus of lizard person fucking monstrosities are throwing everything that they got against Donald Trump. Everything. Everything. This corrupt fucking judicial system, the kid-fuckers in Hollywood, the dipshits on the sports ball fields, everybody. Everything’s against my dude, everything.

He also claimed that Cheney was “the fucking spawn of a lizard person war criminal,” referring to her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney.

Rumble has previously featured videos as “editor picks” that were dedicated to the QAnon conspiracy theory, 9/11 trutherism, and a claim that an August mass shooting in Jacksonville, Florida, was a false flag.

Prince William Launches Multimillion Dollar Earthshot Prize for Climate Action

CLIMATE ACTION

==

Britain's Prince William interviewed famed broadcaster David Attenborough on Tuesday at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Switzerland.

During the sit-down, the 92-year-old naturalist advised the world leaders and business elite gathered in Davos this week that we must respect and protect the natural world, adding that the future of its survival—as well as humanity's survival—is in our hands.

"We can wreck it with ease," Attenborough said. "We can wreck it without even knowing we are doing it. And if we wreck the natural world, in the end, we wreck ourselves."

...

“And, in fact, there’s very good evidence indeed that one of the major reasons for this horror in Syria, funnily enough, was a drought that lasted for about five or six years, which meant that huge numbers of people in the end had to leave the land.”

When asked if there was a direct link between climate change, conflict and terrorism, Prince Charles said: “Absolutely … It’s only in the last few years that the Pentagon has actually started to pay attention to this. I mean, it has a huge impact on what is happening.”

“We never deal with the underlying root cause which regrettably is what we’re doing to our natural environment,” he said, noting the gravity of the crisis. “I mean the difficulties in 2008 with the financial crash — that was a banking crisis. But we’re now facing a real possibility of nature’s bank going bust.”

A U.S. military report from last year called climate change a “catalyst for conflict” and a “threat multiplier.” President Obama has said repeatedly that “no challenge poses a greater threat than climate change, and it’s an “immediate risk to our national security.”

As Secretary of State, John Kerry has made climate change a major priority not simply because it’s a threat to the environment, he said in a recent speech. “It’s because by fueling extreme weather events, undermining our military readiness, exacerbating conflicts around the world, climate change is a threat to the security of the United States and indeed to the security and stability of countries everywhere.”

And most recently, Sen. Bernie Sanders came under fire in the last Democratic primary debate, which took place just a day after the Paris attacks, for saying that “climate change is directly related to the growth of terrorism.” Even after being mocked by conservative media and Democratic operatives alike, Sanders held fast to his claim.

Natural environment

In 2006 he received the 10th annual Global Environmental Citizen Award from the Harvard Medical School's Center for Health and the Global Environment, the director of which, Eric Chivian, stated: "For decades the Prince of Wales has been a champion of the natural world ... He has been a world leader in efforts to improve energy efficiency and in reducing the discharge of toxic substances on land, and into the air and the oceans".[104] Charles's travels by private jet drew criticism from Plane Stupid's Joss Garman.[105][106]Since the early 1980s, Charles has promoted environmental awareness.[100] Upon moving into Highgrove House, he developed an interest in organic farming, which culminated in the 1990 launch of his own organic brand, Duchy Originals,[101] which now sells more than 200 different sustainably produced products, from food to garden furniture; the profits (over £6 million by 2010) are donated to The Prince's Charities.[101]

Documenting work on his estate, Charles co-authored (with Charles Clover, environment editor of The Daily Telegraph) Highgrove: An Experiment in Organic Gardening and Farming, published in 1993, and offers his patronage to Garden Organic. Along similar lines, the Prince of Wales became involved with farming and various industries within it, regularly meeting with farmers to discuss their trade. Although the 2001 foot-and-mouth epidemic in England prevented Charles from visiting organic farms in Saskatchewan, he met the farmers at Assiniboia town hall. In 2004, he founded the Mutton Renaissance Campaign, which aims to support British sheep farmers and make mutton more attractive to Britons.[102] His organic farming has attracted media criticism: According to The Independent in October 2006, "the story of Duchy Originals has involved compromises and ethical blips, wedded to a determined merchandising programme."[103]

In 2007, Charles launched The Prince's May Day Network, which encourages businesses to take action on climate change. Speaking to the European Parliament on 14 February 2008, he called for European Union leadership in the war against climate change. During the standing ovation that followed, Nigel Farage, the leader of the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), remained seated and went on to describe Charles's advisers as "naive and foolish at best."[107] In a speech to the Low Carbon Prosperity Summit in a European Parliament chamber on 9 February 2011, Charles said that climate change sceptics are playing "a reckless game of roulette" with the planet's future and are having a "corrosive effect" on public opinion. He also articulated the need to protect fisheries and the Amazon rain forest, and to make low-carbon emissions affordable and competitive.[108]

In 2011, Charles received the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds Medal for his engagement with the environment, such as the conservation of rainforests.[109]

On 27 August 2012, the Prince of Wales addressed the International Union for Conservation of Nature - World Conservation Congress, supporting the view that grazing animals are needed to keep soils and grassland productive:

"I have been particularly fascinated, for example, by the work of a remarkable man called Allan Savory, inZimbabwe and other semi arid areas, who has argued for years against the prevailing expert view that is the simple numbers of cattle that drive overgrazing and cause fertile land to become desert. On the contrary, as he has since shown so graphically, the land needs the presence of feeding animals and their droppings for the cycle to be complete, so that soils and grassland areas stay productive. Such that, if you take grazers off the land and lock them away in vast feedlots, the land dies."[110]

In February 2014, Charles visited Somerset levels to meet residents affected by winter flooding. During his visit, Charles remarked that, "There's nothing like a jolly good disaster to get people to start doing something. The tragedy is that nothing happened for so long." He pledged a £50,000 donation, provided by the Prince's Countryside Fund, to help families and their businesses.[111][112][113]

Alternative medicine

In April 2008, The Times published a letter from Edzard Ernst, Professor of Complementary Medicine at the University of Exeter, which asked the Prince's Foundation to recall two guides promoting alternative medicine, saying "the majority of alternative therapies appear to be clinically ineffective, and many are downright dangerous." A speaker for the foundation countered the criticism by stating: "We entirely reject the accusation that our online publication Complementary Healthcare: A Guide contains any misleading or inaccurate claims about the benefits of complementary therapies. On the contrary, it treats people as adults and takes a responsible approach by encouraging people to look at reliable sources of information ... so that they can make informed decisions. The foundation does not promote complementary therapies."[119] That year, Ernst published a book with Simon Singh, mockingly dedicated to "HRH the Prince of Wales" called Trick or Treatment: Alternative Medicine on Trial. The last chapter is highly critical of Charles's advocacy of complementary and alternative treatments.[120]Charles has controversially championed complementary and alternative medicine(CAM).[114] The Prince's Foundation for Integrated Health attracted opposition from the scientific and medical community over its campaign encouraging general practitioners to offer herbal and other alternative treatments to National Health Service patients,[115][116] and in May 2006, Charles made a speech at the World Health Assembly in Geneva, urging the integration of conventional and alternative medicine and arguing for homoeopathy.[117][118]

The Prince's Duchy Originals produce a variety of CAM products including a "Detox Tincture" that Edzard Ernst has denounced as "financially exploiting the vulnerable" and "outright quackery".[121] In 2009, the Advertising Standards Authority criticised an email that Duchy Originals had sent out to advertise its Echina-Relief, Hyperi-Lift and Detox Tinctures products saying that it was misleading.[121] The Prince personally wrote at least seven letters[122] to the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) shortly before they relaxed the rules governing labelling of such herbal products, a move that has been widely condemned by scientists and medical bodies.[123] In October 2009, it was reported that Charles had personally lobbied the Health Secretary, Andy Burnham, regarding greater provision of alternative treatments in the NHS.[121]

In April 2010, following accounting irregularities, a former official at the foundation and his wife were arrested for fraud believed to total £300,000.[124] Four days later, the foundation announced its closure, claiming that it "has achieved its key objective of promoting the use of integrated health."[125] The charity's finance director, accountant George Gray, was convicted of theft totalling £253,000 and sentenced to three years in prison.[126] The Prince's Foundation was re-branded and re-launched later in 2010 as The College of Medicine.[126][127][128]

In March 2014, Charles arranged for five million measles-rubella vaccinations for children in the Philippines on the outbreak of measles in South-East Asia. According to Clarence House, Charles was affected by news of the damage caused byTyphoon Yolanda in 2013. International Health Partners, of which he has been Patron since 2004, sent the vaccines, which are believed to protect five million children below the age of five from measles.[129][130]

Religious and philosophical interests

The Prince of Wales was confirmed at age 16 by Archbishop of Canterbury Michael Ramsey at Easter 1965, in St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle.[131] He attends services at various Anglican churches close to Highgrove,[132] and attends theChurch of Scotland's Crathie Kirk with the rest of the royal family when staying at Balmoral Castle. In 2000, he was appointed as Lord High Commissioner to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. The Prince of Wales has visited (amid some secrecy) Orthodox monasteries several times on Mount Athos[133] as well as in Romania.[84]

Charles is also patron of the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies at the University of Oxford.[91][134]

Sir Laurens van der Post became a friend of Charles in 1977; he was dubbed his "spiritual guru" and was godfather to Charles's son, Prince William.[135] From van der Post, the Prince of Wales developed a focus on philosophy, especially that of Asian and Middle Eastern nations. He has praised Kabbalistic artworks,[136] and wrote a memorial for Kathleen Raine, the Neoplatonist poet who died in 2003.[137]

prince Charles Mocked For Backing 'Crazy' Climate Change Face Mask For Cows

CLIMATE CHANGE

Prince Charles has been mocked for backing a climate change initiative that would see a proportion of methane emitted by cows converted into CO2 and water vapor via special catalytic converter fitted masks.

The initiative pioneered by startup Zelp, founded by Francisco Norris, has been awarded the Terra Carta Design Lab award which forms part of Charles' Sustainable Markets Initiative.

The award, which is open to students and alumni of Britain's Royal College of Art, was given to four recipients by the prince at a special event during which the winners spoke with him about their projects.

In a speech given at the event also marking International Design Day reported by The Telegraph, Charles told attendees: "I can't tell you how proud I am to be associated with the Royal College of Art, particularly as a result of seeing the remarkable ideas presented by many of the alumni and existing students.

"May I say that it is critical because of the urgency we face in terms of the crisis confronting us in all directions and just how important is what their ideas represent in terms of finding solutions rapidly.

"I can only hope as a result of this and drawing more attention to what you are doing that we will have a better chance of winning this battle in shorter time. I can only wish you every possible success. Many congratulations."

Prince Charles Three Counties Show 2007

Prince Charles' backing of a methane reducing wearable mask for cows has provoked criticism after being called "ridiculous" and "crazy". Photographed inspecting a Hereford bull at the Malvern Show, June 15, 2007.

The attention drawn to at least one of the initiatives however may not be the kind the prince was hoping to achieve as he has received criticism over the out-there cow mask project.

Broadcaster Sophie Corcoran took to Twitter to voice her disbelief over the project writing: "Prince Charles backs a face mask device for cows that catches Methane emissions in order to stop climate change.

"Climate change Facemasks for cows. What world are we in? this guy is out [our] next king."

— Sophie Corcoran (@sophielouisecc) April 28, 2022

TalkTV host Mike Graham told his viewers that the idea was "ridiculous" and "crazy".

"Apparently [the masks] are going to stop them burping," Graham said of the initiative, "or at least when they do burp then the methane that emits through their mouths is not going to contaminate the atmosphere."

"I mean this bloke wants to be the next king of the United Kingdom, Great Britain and Northern Ireland," he continued. "I mean are you serious? Prince Charles?"

Graham was not alone in his criticism of the initiative as he spoke to journalist Ross Clark who said, "I feel rather sorry for the cow. Animals don't tend to like wearing stuff on their faces if they can help it and I should think the first thing they are going to try and do is scrape that thing off on a fence post and the fields will be left full of plastic masks."

Cows have "got to be able to eat and breathe," Ross added, stating that "when methane's emitting from the mouth you can't sort of cover the whole thing which is why this device has only really claimed to capture 60 percent of the methane emitted through a cow's mouth and nothing out the rear end."

This is not the first time Prince Charles has come under criticism for his environmental beliefs and initiatives. As early as the 1980s rumors that he would talk to plants began to circulate which he later confirmed in the 2011 television documentary Highgrove: When Alan Met Prince Charles, with broadcaster Alan Titchmarsh.

"I happily talk to the plants and the trees," the prince said, and "listen to them...I think it's crucial."

He also voiced his bewilderment at the criticism he faced as a result being labeled "Potty this and potty that and looney this and looney that," over the years for his gardening and environmental practices.

In a 2020 Twitter post from the Clarence House official account, it was revealed that in addition to chatting with the trees he occasionally gives them a friendly hand-shake. It read:

"Working with the Woodland Trust, @BBCCountryfile are supplying trees for viewers to plant at UK sites as part of a special ballot, or through their free tree packs scheme.

"Did you know that after HRH plants a tree, he often gives a branch a friendly shake to wish it well?"

Charles has been an impassioned speaker against climate change and in favor of greenhouse gas reducing initiatives for over two decades. He has become one of the leading global figures in the fight against climate change speaking at the COP26 summit in 2021 in front of world leaders.

The cause is seconded by the prince's two sons Prince Harry and Prince William, the latter of whom started his own environmental prize, the Earthshot Prize last year.

It has not been all jokes and criticism at the expense of Zelp's cow masks however, and the company has found a partner in ABP, the U.K's largest beef processor, which plans to implement the initiative.

An ABP spokesperson told The Telegraph that, "We have been working with the team at Zelp over several years in supporting development of the technology and are currently piloting the latest units on our demonstration farm in Shropshire."

In addition to the wearable methane reducing cow masks, the winners of the 2022 Terra Carta Design Lab Award included a recyclable and chemical free outdoor performance textile, a recycled food waste seed pod initiative to promote plant restoration and a tech-start up initiative to monitor wear on car tires.
