Trump, et al., Defendants. Case No.: 3:25-CV-05025-MDH Challenge to Executive Order 13899 Combating Anti-Semitism & Executive Order 14188 mandate My Lawsuit to Protect Free Speech.
📰 Press Statement Regarding Federal Lawsuit Challenging Executive Order on Antisemitism FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 2025 I have filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 13899 on antisemitism. This executive action-while claiming to fight hatred-effectively punishes Americans for their beliefs, silences criticism of a foreign government, and threatens access to federal benefits and education based on viewpoint discrimination. I make no apology for who I am or what I believe. I am a father, a citizen of Missouri, a Christian Identity believer, and a man who has never hidden his convictions. Some find me controversial. That’s their right. But I, too, have rights-and the First Amendment exists not to protect popular speech, but to defend the speech of the unpopular, the uncomfortable, and the outcast. We are a constitutional republic so that one man-any man-can stand up and be heard. That’s the very core of American freedom. The right to speak, to think, and to challenge government authority is not reserved for the elite, the well-funded, or the politically correct. It belongs to all of us-equally. This lawsuit is not about whether people agree with me. It’s about whether the federal government can threaten Americans into silence, punish them for speech, or use its power to reshape public opinion by force. That is not “combating hate”-that is state-sanctioned censorship. The Trump administration’s executive order uses a politicized definition of antisemitism to intimidate students, teachers, and everyday citizens from expressing constitutionally protected views-especially those critical of foreign policy or foreign powers. The order opens the door to federal retaliation, surveillance, and coercion, based on nothing more than opinion. We must remain under constitutional law, and that law must apply to everyone equally, or it means nothing at all. Let the media say what it will. I trust the American people to understand that if the government can silence one man today, it can silence all of us tomorrow.

Tucker is making a mistake pushing Simplisafe. The company is not even close to the best and you do yourself of the public no favors for doing so. I would be happy to prove my point as a 40 year security consultant if contacted.
Запись экрана Телеграмм-чата роты V 433 МСП и подразделений аэроразведки. Это видео предоставлено группой военнослужащих, которое наглядно демонстрирует, как ВС РФ используют бывших заключённых и сервисы Starlink, Discord и Телеграмм для убийства украинцев на территории Украины в ходе этой войны. Военные сообщили нам, что предоставленные государством средства связи не только неэффективны, но и опасны - у ВСУ и ГУР есть технические возможности обнаружения штатных радиостанций подразделений ВС РФ, по которым тут же наносятся удары, и поэтому в бОльшей части подразделений для коммуникации и координации штурмов и захвата территорий используют высокоскоростной спутниковый Интернет от Starlink, оформленный на подставных лиц на территории Европы, а также сервис американской компании Discord для передачи потока данных и видео с дронов и мобильное приложение мессенджер Telegram, основанный Павлов Дуровым. Справочно. В сентябре 2023 года в Телеграмм инициативной группой разоблачителей был создан Тг-канал СЛИВЫ, который за считанные дни набрал более 15,000 подписчиков и публиковал инсайд, документы и файлы из ГенШтаба, ВСК России, ФСБ и других российских спецслужб. Телеграмм удалил этот канал без каких-либо предупреждений, фактически выступив на стороне российских спецслужб. Тогда пиар-службы и помогающие Павлу Дурову медиаменеджеры помогли "замять" этот скандал и вопиющий факт, указывающий на взаимодействие Телеги и рос.спецслужб. В этом же видео - запись чата одного из подразделений 433 мотострелкового полка, аэроразведки и штурмовых отрядов за период 20 апреля - 3 мая 2025 года, которые координируют свои действия, а командиры отдают распоряжения для подвоза боеприпасов, нанесения ударов по позициям ВСУ и фактически убийства граждан Украины на территории Украины. Мы уже передали данные файлы следствию и прокуратуре Украины, в международные организации и в посольство США во Франции, и также приглашаем руководство Starlink, Discord и Telegram и их службы безопасности, комплаенс и тех.поддержки к сотрудничеству и пресечению использования их сервисов агрессором, регулярно совершающим военные преступления и убивающим как военных, так и гражданских. Мы призываем всех россиян, участвующих в войне против Украины, прекратить соучастие в этой подлой оккупационной войне и приглашаем вернуться домой. Не подвергайте себя опасности и не выполняйте бесчеловечные приказы.

France didn't arrest him because of what users were doing, they absolutely arrested him to scare him and make him comply with the new EU authoritarian tech control. Why on earth would they lock him in solitary confinement WITH BLINKING LIGHTS other than to break and traumatize him.
For decades, the USA has been the world's largest police state with the most prisoners and highest incarceration per capita and gives the government tyrants immunity. For decades, France hasn't been a human rights country except for minorities and women and French courts are extremely slow.
France is near the top of the most feminist countries and its government and courts are very sexist - the opposite of their national motto equality brotherhood.
I read the Russian military was using the app to communicate. The US and EU wanted backdoor access to spy. The sex trafficking accusation is just an excuse.
The question Tucker really wanted to ask is, did they (whoever they are) try to convert him into becoming their asset. For sure they tried, did they succeed? Who knows, I hope not. And if they failed, then his life from hereon now will perpetually be in danger.
He would have been jailed in Russia, probably forever. The difference is, with Russia nobody would have been surprised, and with France everyone is shocked and he has a lawyer.
@mequableно только в России его не посадили а Франция посадили, это факт. Россию он постоянно оскорбляет , но при этом постоянно туда ездит и его никто не трогает , а на этом интервью он в заложниках у Франции и боится говорить
@mequableHe was in Russia the whole time and never been arrested. Plus he has not escaped from Russia as nobody help him captive over there, he choose to live in emirates and France..He can always come back to Russia without any risks to be arrested.
@mequableEurope has always been liberal to every sorts of BS like perversions, craziness, etc but always authocratic to speech. In UK they already jail people for Facebook posts..
@nataliadagonhe was in Russia before, he left in 2014. Putin began the Crimea invasion that same year, although the processes that lead to that were definitely present in the previous couple of years. With Crimea however it became apparent Russia is heading towards autocracy, so no wonder he left in 2014. We cannot know what would have happened if he stayed, but just two days ago Transneft's Vice President was found unalived after he decided to jump from his window apartment in Moscow... Just saying.
And US/UK/CA/AU/NZ. It is the entirety of what constitutes the West whose ultimate desire is to turn these nations into digital panopticons like China for the benefit of The Owners.
He was arrested because he wouldn’t release the encryption keys a while back. Who knows if Telegram is what it used to be 😢 some government was given a backdoor because we had too much privacy on telegram. ❤
not what im picking up. he answered all the questions. im kinda getting the feeling that hes hiding out in france and that this is a cover story. maybe russia or someone is after him and hes seeking refuge. he said it himself he doesnt use a phone for privacy reasons and that france is his favorite place.
@BurntRAM you're nutz, he lives in Dubai, lol, he got French citizenship just to get free access to Eurozone, he doesn't even live there, in his "favorite place", lol. He said about France that it's "the best place for rest, coz it's too hot in Dubai right now". Kinda different from your twisted interpretation. And even this is an irony from him, since he just CANT leave France since he's held there by autorities. Also you're a liar, he's not under any investigation in Russia and he even said that he felt himself more free in Russia than in France. Stop trying to invent stuff, he travels to Russia periodically.
Un peu de pratique pour vous Pavel en français : Je suis touchée de voir à quel point vous aimez notre pays, mais n'ayez pas peur de dire les termes : la France est devenue catastrophique en termes d'économie certes mais en termes de liberté. Ne prenez pas de pincettes, on est en dictature, c'est tout.
@johntheaccountant5594 FOR MEDICAL REASON, ALSO BECAUSE I CAN, AND AFTER OVER 40 YRS OF PAYING TAXES, AND FOLLOWING GOV. RULES., I DO NOT DO ANYTHING THAT I DO NOT WANT TO DO. ALSO WHO SAID IT MEANS A PERSON IS YELLING, STUPIDITY. THANKS
@johntheaccountant5594 Because to over 50% of the world's population, capitals mean we are stressing our point... The other 50%, born with digital messaging, arbitrarily decided it means shouting, and were taught not to use them. Yeah, yeah, boomer got to adapt... get with the program, etc... strange though, to half the world's population, aka boomers, how the younger half cares so much about things the elder half spent more years doing than the younger half were actually alive.. and now the younger half feel they must enforce their newly forged expectations and norms onto the boomers... hope that answers your question.
I'm ashamed of my country for abducting someone like this when there's no solid proof of guilt. Democracy has been dead in France for a good 10 years now. Courage and strength to you.
You realise that this man is the keeper of the worlds larges collection of based memes. They’re panicking because if those memes got into the hands of and in front of the eyes of _normal people,_ who knows what would happen !!!!! 🤔
My cousin (a French official) said the only reason: people were criticizing Israel for writing anti-semitic comments, Israel needed the IP addresses and wanted them banned, so they arrested him! Other than that French authorities don't have any problems with anything else.
It's not an abduction. It's a standard procedure for anyone under investigation.unless you live in Chechnya. There you would have a special treatment of you are a VIP person
He is trying to be diplomatic. If he says anything wrong or just discriminating about France he could go back to the locked room with the blinking light.
He talks like that for 20 years. It is just his way to give the very rare interviews. It is not about France, Russia or USA - he is a businessman and creating any kind of mess with any government can't bring him any profit, only extra problems.
@ЕгорВаракин-м8яв России его бы уже давно сгнобили. То что щас хреново во Франции не значит что стало лучше в раше. В раше уже давно все кончено, а в Европе конец приближается. Злорадствуешь потому что щас везде хреново Шариков?
la meilleur blague c'est entendre un russe parler de démocratie, alors que depuis la création du monde vous avez était victimes de tyrans, incapable de se révolter dans toute l'histoire de l'humanité, vous avez échangez des régimes monarchique avec des dictatures constantes, merci mais je préfère MA démocratie plutôt que la tienne 😂😂
Great interview. Pavel speaks so diplomatically. I know I would be so generous. I've used Telegram for years and it's the only messaging service/social media I use and will continue to do so. Seems to me, and maybe I'm biased, Pavel is a political prisoner to some degree and it's unconscionable to me how a government can get away with it, but he's not the first or only. Please keep updates coming. Thanks Tucker.
Merci d'avoir publié cette émission sur telegram sinon jamais je n'aurais connu la véritable histoire de cette arrestation. Je pensais que c'était fini depuis bien longtemps !
The funniest thing is that those Russian “oppositionists” who accused Russia of putting pressure on Durov began to justify France when he was illegally captured.
Translation of the Russian commentary below: In short: left authoritarian Russia to avoid going to prison. Ended up going to prison in democratic France.
@SpecialFactor-ui7oz You sound like a naive little child. Let me guess, you're Ukrainian, right? Only they have such a naive and servile view of the West. Torture is used everywhere, even in the most democratic countries. And yes, torture in Russian prisons has never been proven.
@Zanne11 he left Russia because he perceived it unholy to cooperate with government to only get arrested by another government he deemed to be democratic and with whom he fully cooperated. What a travesty! He does not grasp the duplicity of his position yet.
It is quite striking that Pavel Durov himself said that the four days he spent in an isolated cell during his legal troubles were 'excessive'-especially considering he is such a prominent figure and champion of digital privacy and freedom of expression. Even now, he remains without real freedom, as the intimidation persists. It is a pure act of intimidation against him and everyone else
but Pavel said that all legitimate information could have been provided in accordance with the law if France had sent an official request, isn't that enough?
He lied in the first sentence stating that we went to France with no purpose. i remember him saying that Macron invited him that's why he went to France.
@sifer543This part is very interesting, indeed. It raises the question: Is that true, or not ? It seems to be a fact Telegram was answering to a very limited number of requests. They now answer to a LOT more. Durov is now spinning this as "they were not requesting correctly and now they do". In short: "It was their fault and THEY adapted, not: WE adapted to share more than we were accepting to do". But, it this totally accurate ? It seems strange, doesn't it ?
Durov is principled and brave. You can tell by the way he handled himself during that ordeal once he got out. You can tell by how he is handling this interview. You see intelligence in his eyes. The measured tone. The thoughtful way he speaks, reflects, analyses...never rushed...never hurried...taking his time to respond to each question in a precise way. He is a feeling person as he speaks of his wife n kids n mother...but he is not excessively overly emotional or isnt playing to the cameras. He is very different from Elon or Zuckerberg. There is more maturity and gravitas. This is someone you can take seriously who seems to have a very strong grasp of everything his arrest implied. Great interview. Merciox
@ifkipling219we all felt it in the manner he answered the questions . I hope they will set him free so he can tell freely what all this mascarade was about. Tucker answered it for him .
Теперь многие знают, что Франция 🇫🇷 может без причины арестовать и запереть в камере человека, отобрать телефон и держать в заложниках. Я думаю поток туристов и очень богатых и влиятельных людей сократится точно
Nevertheless he is still alive and talking with Tucker. In (not so Soviet) Russia enemies of the regime are chopping lumber in Siberia in -40 degrees frost, or dying from "broken off clot", while domesticated propagandist animals are making fun on it (ruclips.net/video/uV6a9SthC90/video.html). Feel the difference baby.
Absolutely. When the powers that be lock them up, the populace knows they tell truth. Stupid politicians showing their hand with their biggest weakness, unchecked power. Pitiful.
I was in France in the late 90's and even back then it was ever so slightly creepy. I got the feeling that wasn't entirely safe there, and I never went back. I would not go today and people think I am paranoid, but it's not safe, this guy sort of proves it.
Agreed! I think Pavel Durov has learned that he IS safer in Russia after all. He just doesn't want to admit it and return to Moscow with his tail between his legs.
@politichia6820 I disagree. Pavel did not defect. He is still a Russian citizen. He has not been banned from Russia. In fact when he was arrested, Putin made a statement about Pavel Durov being a Russian citizen and they're watching this situation in France very closely.
@Zanne11 Well, it's more beneficial for Russia to have Durov in jail in France than having another westernized liberal roaming the streets in Moscow. So, yeah, Putin is watching, and that's pretty much all he's doing.
I'm French and I'm ashame. Our gouvernement is insane, we are prisoners of the European Union, infiltrated by the American deep state. Even low-level elected officials no longer defend ordinary citizens. Just look at the UK - that’s what’s coming for us. It’s terrifying. We are constrained financially, socially, politically, and intellectually. Everything is accelerating, and because it’s happening so fast, maybe we’ll reach a breaking point. My only hope is that the cleanup happening in the US will shift the balance over here. France is no longer a democracy. I’m sorry. Full support.
Russians are known for being honest and straightforward, Pasha is being a westerner, well at least in this interview. Being very careful of what he is saying. Still grateful for him and his brother for the app. Удачи Паша
He said he prefers the west to ussr because the west has 200 ice cream flavors, wh8ch it doesn't. Or 200 tv channels , which italy didn't and still doesn't have. They are working on providing reliable 8nternet in italy
@alenaself9520 The USSR has been gone for almost 35 years...Is he an idiot? There are several hundred types of ice cream in Russia and the same number of TV channels, and interestingly, many Western Russophobic channels still operate in Russia, unlike in the so-called democratic countries, where all Russian channels have been turned off...Apparently, it's more convenient for them to fool their citizens so that the population does not have an alternative point of view on everything that is happening... George Orwell's book "1984" is the reality of Western civilization.
@alenaself9520 ice cream in Russia is much tastier than in the West, I'm telling you as a person who has lived in the USA and Germany...I'm originally from Russia
He has naively idealized the "West" for many years, despite all the recent events, like many people from the Russian liberal crowd. Although I no longer know if they are so naive or if they are pretending. Pavel actively helped the EU with his Telegram on attempts to overthrow the government of Belarus in order to set up a second Ukraine there, helped anti-government riots in Russia, and so on. So, he has been cooperating with EU governments for a long time, at least performing their secret behind-the-scenes tricks, and apparently he believed that he was untouchable for his past services to the EU.
@Borondontan делайте выводы). разработчики не пользуются сами своим продуктом. и смеются в голос читая все эти комментарии, ибо они пасут овец.. стригут овец. пока те уткнулись в телефоны и забыли, что жизнь надо жить.
Hallucinant ! 😨 Merci infiniment Tucker pour cette interview où Pavel Durov fait preuve d'un sang-froid et d'une retenue incroyable face au harcèlement et à la tyrannie dont il est très clairement victime... Je suis française, les gouvernements qui se sont succédés depuis bien des années maintenant sont une véritable honte pour toute la nation mais vrai que ce dernier, celui de MACRON, bat tous les records en ce qui concerne la volonté de suppression pure et simple de tous les droits de l'homme... Longue vie à vous, courageux résistants, car voici bien la preuve que de nos jours tout est effectivement devenu possible dans notre monde, dans notre pays, y compris... l'injustice, le harcèlement et le... totalitarisme...
As a French person, I find it a shame to do this, it's so not normal... If the French justice system were more competent, perhaps we wouldn't be at this point.
Je pense que ce n'est pas une question de compétence mais une vraie campagne de déformation qui me fait penser à celle vécu par Thierry casasnovas aussi, juste parce qu'ils dérangent le système.
There are Russians who naively trust the West and there are Russians who are traitors to their motherland for money or for other reasons. It is sometimes impossible to say who we are dealing with.
Again I hear about two ice cream varieties in the USSR that is not true. In Leningrad, where Pavel was born and raised, they were at least 5-6 ice cream varieties, and all of them were just superb, made of real milk, cream and chocolate.
I remember my Soviet childhood in Leningrad very well. Leningrad itself was well supplied, not like Moscow, but better than cities 40 kilometers away from Leningrad, like Gatchina. And in these ordinary cities, they usually sold two types of ice cream, white and boring creamy plombir, and creme brulee. That's it, really two types. Sometimes, three times during my entire childhood, as a terrible rarity, you could stand in a huge line and manage to buy a fruit one for 7 kopecks, or a chocolate one for 10 kopecks. In Leningrad, after standing in a huge line on Nevsky Prospect, you could buy an Eskimo, a chocolate bar on a stick. So you are both right and wrong, formally 5, but in reality, in daily access, only 2. But I really liked the children's summer camps and sports sections under the communists. Thanks to comrade Brezhnev for a happy Soviet childhood, no joke, even with lines for food and a meager choice.
Don't you get it - whatever comes from the USSR/Russia is bad by default. However, everything abroad is democratic and perfect. The dude can't even realise up until now why he was detained and what for - ethnicity is out of question according to him. Tucker tried really hard to open his eyes, but the dude is unconvinced and still surprised 😅.
@MikeMike-cc4jkThere was lines for food because prices was so low that everyone could afford it . If you start selling best beef steaks in USA for 75 cents per pound , there are gonna be pre- orders with waiting list for more than a year.
We know, its one of those things where everyone right now is under attack just to express an opinion, but I think people in general all understand we are all in the same boat even if we are all residing in different countries. I'm sorry France is going through hard times, I just hope they aren't everyone's future.
@mrtopcat2No, I am not mixing with Tate. Pavel Durov said that Nicolas Lerner, the chief of DGSE (French Secret Services) asked him to censor the Conservative voices in Romania (Călin Georgescu, George Simion and their fans).
@greenspinner5024 I know my friend. I'm from Bulgaria and since we switched to "democracy" elections are manipulated, bought and falsified. Democracy has nothing to do with freedom and everything to do with propaganda giving you the illusion of "freedom".
@greenspinner5024 So why haven’t you made that argument to begin with? Plus Romania is not the only one the list here. There are others as well. Pay attention please and make your arguments precise to count.
Most people dont want to understand that even during the "cold war", western countries were not more free but had a higher standard of living. and that kept them happy.
Exactly right! Then they sent them to slaughter forcing them to take the jabs humiliating them to get suffocated by masks not even being able to breath properly, taking away their dignity, forcing them to obey house arrest restricting movement and sovereign basic freedoms straight out of some Orwell's '84
He is surprised because for many of us Russians-his generation, well-educated, and so on-Europe and the US were a 'city upon a hill,' something to aspire to. And now, suddenly, it turns out they’ve taken a path that Russia and the Soviet Union had long since walked down.
The government can hear every single word you say in your home, your car, your yard, your garage etc... even if you have never had a single electronic anywhere around your home.
So when the Russian govt wanted Pavel to give out the keys, he said it was violating freedoms, but when the French govt was doing the same thing, Pavel says “it’s a great country, it was just a big misunderstanding”.
3 года назад говорил не называйте меня российским бизнесменом, настало время переобуваться, тут же пёрнул что он русский, занёс денег Карлсону и начал рассказывать какой он хороший).
This is more a comment for Google RUclips : every time I downloaded the video (to watch somewhere without coverage ) , the audio track was set to french instead of English, even if I changed the audio track language before downloading.
The whole EU is totalitarian. I live in a house prison under surveillance 24/ 7 in Slovenia.My boss reported on me to speek disrespectfully of the government. I am persecuted by SOVA e.g. secret service, as were my parents and grandparents. I am not allowed to have any friends, family or earn money.This is going on since 2001. In 2009 I applied for a political asylum in Canada. My plea was rejected and I was returned directly to Slovenia without a possibility to escape to some other country. I am 66 now and never knew a life in freedom. There is absolute media censure. Slovenia was established by European Enlightment, which was introduced to the land by Napoleon, this political movement later endorsed communism around the world. Nowadays this movement is active in the form of a woke culture which is present in everycountry of the world. Their only purpose is power and greed.
@bekjanbektenov9343 Надеюсь, вы утрируете. Есть страны, ИЗ которых люди БЕГУТ, в которых полный ахтунг, а есть те, вернее, та, В которую бегут, "the last stand on Earth"
@anastasia7091 It's your understanding of his words is shallow. Amount of channels, ice cream flavours, etc. is freedom of choice and freedom of entrepreneurship - it shows that your country, and especially state, have at least some freedoms. Yes there are way more freedoms and possibilities - and you can compare this amount between different countries.
@Skaarj8 Just as an example. In USSR there was a form of entrepreneurship (and still is in Russia, but not popular) called "a cooperative". People built 10-story apartment buildings together without a big daddy. They called "ships" in slang. Look it up. On the other hand, the amount of brands in food stores depends on many factors, especially when we are talking about something happened 50-70 years ago. Taking these and many more facts into account it's safe to say that the amount of brands and channels are not indicative of freedom.
Durov's arrest was just another political statement of French government hostile posture towards Russia. EU is massively messaging to Russia that EU favors Ukraine. Durov's arrest was just another such a message.
Да кучу других людей можно было арестовать для такой акции устрашения... А если это действительно правда, то французские власти выстрелили себе в ногу. Уж кого кого, а Дурова никак нельзя назвать, пропроссийским. Он поругался с российскими силовиками и ему пришлось уехать, продав за дешево весьма успешный бизнес... Если вы думаете, что после такого он очень любит россйские власти, ты вы сильно ошибаетесь. Он польностью прозападный и либеральный человек.
Of course, they favor their puppets in Ukraine. They also spent money for a coup in 2014 and directly participated when they signed the agreement with Yanukovych posing as peacekeepers and mediators between him and their puppets in the opposition.
I think that Pavel is playing stupid:) He knew exactly what happened. They just wanted to show him that no matter how much money he has he is still a pawn.
You can't deny that he took the chance to make another "hero" move! So give him some credit! 😂 I how you're not one of those butthurt guys who "got scammed on TON" 😂
Павел либо очень наивный сам по себе, либо максимально старается фильтровать все, о чем говорит. И да, Павел, ситуация с арестом никак "не связана" с тем, что ты - русский. Смешно прям. Удачи во Франции.
So sorry for you Pavel Dourov! In the country of human rights, my country!! My grand parents and theirs before them, fought for freedom... we won't give it up, the light forces are by our side!! ❤
❤ greattings from Guatemala. I agree with Mr. Pavel. The sad part is that we give our information just to be included in the technology and the new systems of society.
It is remarkable, listening to Pavel, how naive he still is. He was literally arrested and thrown into prison, and then house arrest, by the government of France, on absolutely ridiculous legal grounds. Yet he still seems to have faith in Western "rule of law" and good faith. This is a naivete that I have found endemic among Russians. I have lived among them for a decent amount of time, I have visited their country many times, and I speak Russian (not well, but enough to understand how they think). Even today, so many Russians still have this weird inferiority complex about how the West is supposedly better. Only now, three years after the start of the SMO, Russians are finally beginning to realise that they have more freedoms, and a higher standard of living, than the Euroweenies in the EUSSR. And, paradoxically, the ones who still cling on the most strongly to the delusion that the West is still the bastion of rule of law and freedom, are precisely the Russians who (like Pavel) spend the most time travelling through the West. It is a curious psychosis, which I cannot fully explain.
@Cast36x Because it IS a Special Military Operation. If the Russians go to war - REAL war, the kind only they know how to fight - Ukraine ceases to exist in a few months, and the capitals of the Western nations that support it, burn within an hour. As for freedoms - here is just one, and it is the most important one that matters: I can express my Christian faith openly and pray in public, and no one can arrest me for doing so. If I tried that in the UK, outside an abortion clinic, I would be arrested. If I criticise a certain (((tribe))) for their excesses and stupidity, I can do so in Russia without fear of being branded a bigot - I cannot do that in most European countries, where hate-speech laws prohibit it. I have more freedom of speech in Russia than I do in the EU or UK. It is that simple.
This is a thing for russian liberals which goes back to many centuries ago. Even Dostoevsky wrote about this: "One of the defining traits of Russian liberalism is its deep contempt for its own people. The Russian liberal is, above all, a lackey, constantly looking for someone’s boots to polish."
Zhuravel was stupid enough to accept money from the SBU to burn a Koran in public. He was lucky to get prison. In Britain, if you burn a Koran, you end up dead, and the police don't bother trying to investigate your case. In fact, you can be arrested in the UK as a Christian for praying silently outside an abortion clinic. As for the clearing of other sects - I celebrated Midnight Mass in the Anglican cathedral in Moscow in 2023. From what I'm seeing, other denominations of the True Faith are welcome in Russia.
Ці казочки гарно заходять тукера аудиторії. Деякі в них навіть вірять. Але це одні лише балачки. Коли ж діло доходить до справи то кожен москаль котрому вдалося на московії заробити чі наворувати при першій же можливості тіка на Захід. Звичайно, тим хто "служит гасударству" так зробити не завжди виходить, бо калєгі можуть атамстіть - чайком з полонієм напоїти, чі дати понюхати Навічка смачного як отим ватним Скрипалям. Але їхні діти, сім'ї- всі на заході. Бізнесмени середньої руки, в котрих немає жорстких зобов'язань перед кремлем - всі на Заході. Ними кишать всі європейські міста. Даже губьєрнатор скрєпнаго Сєвастополя і тот в душному Лондоні осилився а не вільній Кєрчі. Так що розказувати Павло, Тукер і всі інші політруки-агітатори можуть що завгодно, але допоки вони самі та їх сім'ї не переїдуть жити в московію до того часу це лише блуддивий лицемірний пиз...ож або словоблудіє по московинськи.

Trump, et al., Defendants. Case No.: 3:25-CV-05025-MDH Challenge to Executive Order 13899 Combating Anti-Semitism & Executive Order 14188 mandate My Lawsuit to Protect Free Speech.
📰 Press Statement Regarding Federal Lawsuit Challenging Executive Order on Antisemitism
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 2025
I have filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 13899 on antisemitism. This executive action-while claiming to fight hatred-effectively punishes Americans for their beliefs, silences criticism of a foreign government, and threatens access to federal benefits and education based on viewpoint discrimination.
I make no apology for who I am or what I believe. I am a father, a citizen of Missouri, a Christian Identity believer, and a man who has never hidden his convictions. Some find me controversial. That’s their right. But I, too, have rights-and the First Amendment exists not to protect popular speech, but to defend the speech of the unpopular, the uncomfortable, and the outcast.
We are a constitutional republic so that one man-any man-can stand up and be heard. That’s the very core of American freedom. The right to speak, to think, and to challenge government authority is not reserved for the elite, the well-funded, or the politically correct. It belongs to all of us-equally.
This lawsuit is not about whether people agree with me. It’s about whether the federal government can threaten Americans into silence, punish them for speech, or use its power to reshape public opinion by force. That is not “combating hate”-that is state-sanctioned censorship.
The Trump administration’s executive order uses a politicized definition of antisemitism to intimidate students, teachers, and everyday citizens from expressing constitutionally protected views-especially those critical of foreign policy or foreign powers. The order opens the door to federal retaliation, surveillance, and coercion, based on nothing more than opinion.
We must remain under constitutional law, and that law must apply to everyone equally, or it means nothing at all.
Let the media say what it will. I trust the American people to understand that if the government can silence one man today, it can silence all of us tomorrow.
May Justice prevail

Tucker is making a mistake pushing Simplisafe. The company is not even close to the best and you do yourself of the public no favors for doing so. I would be happy to prove my point as a 40 year security consultant if contacted.
Запись экрана Телеграмм-чата роты V 433 МСП и подразделений аэроразведки. Это видео предоставлено группой военнослужащих, которое наглядно демонстрирует, как ВС РФ используют бывших заключённых и сервисы Starlink, Discord и Телеграмм для убийства украинцев на территории Украины в ходе этой войны. Военные сообщили нам, что предоставленные государством средства связи не только неэффективны, но и опасны - у ВСУ и ГУР есть технические возможности обнаружения штатных радиостанций подразделений ВС РФ, по которым тут же наносятся удары, и поэтому в бОльшей части подразделений для коммуникации и координации штурмов и захвата территорий используют высокоскоростной спутниковый Интернет от Starlink, оформленный на подставных лиц на территории Европы, а также сервис американской компании Discord для передачи потока данных и видео с дронов и мобильное приложение мессенджер Telegram, основанный Павлов Дуровым.
Справочно. В сентябре 2023 года в Телеграмм инициативной группой разоблачителей был создан Тг-канал СЛИВЫ, который за считанные дни набрал более 15,000 подписчиков и публиковал инсайд, документы и файлы из ГенШтаба, ВСК России, ФСБ и других российских спецслужб. Телеграмм удалил этот канал без каких-либо предупреждений, фактически выступив на стороне российских спецслужб. Тогда пиар-службы и помогающие Павлу Дурову медиаменеджеры помогли "замять" этот скандал и вопиющий факт, указывающий на взаимодействие Телеги и рос.спецслужб. В этом же видео - запись чата одного из подразделений 433 мотострелкового полка, аэроразведки и штурмовых отрядов за период 20 апреля - 3 мая 2025 года, которые координируют свои действия, а командиры отдают распоряжения для подвоза боеприпасов, нанесения ударов по позициям ВСУ и фактически убийства граждан Украины на территории Украины.
Мы уже передали данные файлы следствию и прокуратуре Украины, в международные организации и в посольство США во Франции, и также приглашаем руководство Starlink, Discord и Telegram и их службы безопасности, комплаенс и тех.поддержки к сотрудничеству и пресечению использования их сервисов агрессором, регулярно совершающим военные преступления и убивающим как военных, так и гражданских.
Мы призываем всех россиян, участвующих в войне против Украины, прекратить соучастие в этой подлой оккупационной войне и приглашаем вернуться домой. Не подвергайте себя опасности и не выполняйте бесчеловечные приказы. Если Вы хотите поделиться с нами аналогичной информацией, наша эл.почта в описании к этому видео

They pretty much kidnapped him
@Safia_zadehLies, accounts have been banned for violating policy for years, you obviously are ignorant to the app.
@eggyxo1861 they really haven't dude. Not to the level necessary by any measure.
Correct. Not in Russia but in Europe.
Arrested
*Bingo*
France didn't arrest him because of what users were doing, they absolutely arrested him to scare him and make him comply with the new EU authoritarian tech control. Why on earth would they lock him in solitary confinement WITH BLINKING LIGHTS other than to break and traumatize him.
not to scare HIM but to scare everyone else and make them COMPLY
For decades, the USA has been the world's largest police state with the most prisoners and highest incarceration per capita and gives the government tyrants immunity.
For decades, France hasn't been a human rights country except for minorities and women and French courts are extremely slow.
France is near the top of the most feminist countries and its government and courts are very sexist - the opposite of their national motto equality brotherhood.
France ranks near the top of most feminist countries and their governments and courts are the same
I read the Russian military was using the app to communicate. The US and EU wanted backdoor access to spy. The sex trafficking accusation is just an excuse.
He speaks like a hostage
Because he IS
Well, he is.
💯
The question Tucker really wanted to ask is, did they (whoever they are) try to convert him into becoming their asset. For sure they tried, did they succeed? Who knows, I hope not. And if they failed, then his life from hereon now will perpetually be in danger.
Yes I also get this feeling. It’s like he’s trying to censor what to say and which words to use
Pavel must be feeling free and happy after escaping Russia and enjoying his " Libertè, égalité, fraternité" in France!
He would have been jailed in Russia, probably forever. The difference is, with Russia nobody would have been surprised, and with France everyone is shocked and he has a lawyer.
@mequableно только в России его не посадили а Франция посадили, это факт. Россию он постоянно оскорбляет , но при этом постоянно туда ездит и его никто не трогает , а на этом интервью он в заложниках у Франции и боится говорить
@mequableHe was in Russia the whole time and never been arrested. Plus he has not escaped from Russia as nobody help him captive over there, he choose to live in emirates and France..He can always come back to Russia without any risks to be arrested.
@mequableEurope has always been liberal to every sorts of BS like perversions, craziness, etc but always authocratic to speech. In UK they already jail people for Facebook posts..
@nataliadagonhe was in Russia before, he left in 2014. Putin began the Crimea invasion that same year, although the processes that lead to that were definitely present in the previous couple of years. With Crimea however it became apparent Russia is heading towards autocracy, so no wonder he left in 2014. We cannot know what would have happened if he stayed, but just two days ago Transneft's Vice President was found unalived after he decided to jump from his window apartment in Moscow... Just saying.
Its not france its the whole EU
Corruptkraine should join EU, that will make it better /s
And US/UK/CA/AU/NZ. It is the entirety of what constitutes the West whose ultimate desire is to turn these nations into digital panopticons like China for the benefit of The Owners.
Correct!Europe is lost.. and will be a sinkhole in a few years.The EU and the WEF are leading Europa into war and famine.
But France IS special. 🤮
Macro-n Merde!
He’s actually still prisoner of France a French citizen not free to leave, amazing
Outrage !
Unsurprised. As a Canuckistanian who was unable to leave Canuckistan during the "pandemonium"...
It smells like freedom. Russia has long been freer and safer than the entire West.
Now he look like a idiot who got play by France
Not shocking. The EU has no free speech.
Man under duress. He is speaking with extreme caution.
Yes ,he is and we know why
He was arrested because he wouldn’t release the encryption keys a while back. Who knows if Telegram is what it used to be 😢 some government was given a backdoor because we had too much privacy on telegram. ❤
not what im picking up. he answered all the questions. im kinda getting the feeling that hes hiding out in france and that this is a cover story. maybe russia or someone is after him and hes seeking refuge. he said it himself he doesnt use a phone for privacy reasons and that france is his favorite place.
That's the kind of Tucker he is 🤣
@BurntRAM you're nutz, he lives in Dubai, lol, he got French citizenship just to get free access to Eurozone, he doesn't even live there, in his "favorite place", lol.
He said about France that it's "the best place for rest, coz it's too hot in Dubai right now". Kinda different from your twisted interpretation. And even this is an irony from him, since he just CANT leave France since he's held there by autorities.
Also you're a liar, he's not under any investigation in Russia and he even said that he felt himself more free in Russia than in France. Stop trying to invent stuff, he travels to Russia periodically.
Un peu de pratique pour vous Pavel en français :
Je suis touchée de voir à quel point vous aimez notre pays, mais n'ayez pas peur de dire les termes : la France est devenue catastrophique en termes d'économie certes mais en termes de liberté. Ne prenez pas de pincettes, on est en dictature, c'est tout.
I AM A 63 YR OLD CANADIAN... I FIGURED OUT 30 YRS AGO THAT WE THE SO CALLED FREE PEOPLE LIVE IN A OPEN AIR PRISON...
Yep. Privileged slaves. And those privileges are continuously going away.
Yes; but why capitals?
@johntheaccountant5594 63 yr old
@johntheaccountant5594 FOR MEDICAL REASON, ALSO BECAUSE I CAN, AND AFTER OVER 40 YRS OF PAYING TAXES, AND FOLLOWING GOV. RULES., I DO NOT DO ANYTHING THAT I DO NOT WANT TO DO. ALSO WHO SAID IT MEANS A PERSON IS YELLING, STUPIDITY. THANKS
@johntheaccountant5594 Because to over 50% of the world's population, capitals mean we are stressing our point... The other 50%, born with digital messaging, arbitrarily decided it means shouting, and were taught not to use them. Yeah, yeah, boomer got to adapt... get with the program, etc... strange though, to half the world's population, aka boomers, how the younger half cares so much about things the elder half spent more years doing than the younger half were actually alive.. and now the younger half feel they must enforce their newly forged expectations and norms onto the boomers... hope that answers your question.
I guess Candace shouldn't visit France
Candace would be "accidentally" hit by a bus while visiting France.
Ya think. 😂😂 I was thinking they would detain Tucker and check his phone for Candace correspondence. ✌️
He's not out yet.
😂😂😂 absolutely not, and keep Joe Rogan safe in the USA, as well❤❤❤
Definitely not! 😂😂😂 The Macrons would take care of her for sure.
"Did you join a gang while you were in jail"
"No, I was by myself so I couldn't" 😂😂😂
Tee Hee
Well, in all fairness, if that happened in the US and he didn't answer the gang question will full confidence, he would be in cecot right now.
Thanks TC, the world has turnined into a scary place lately, more voices needed. Wishing the best for Pavel and his family.
Its good to see how many people around the world are starting to stand up and fight for a free world. nationality unbiased
The globalists want to keep us in a mental prison.
And... how many? I don't see
He might be a French citizen but his dry humor is definitely of Russian origin. 😂
I liked his joke about languages "I sound even less intelligent in french than in english" 😂
@alexandracotton1994he didn’t joke, he believes that his English is not very good
@Evelyn-mh9cnoh he is just shy, he has alright English
@alexandracotton1994I agree
А что плохого в русском происхождении?) я чего-то не понимаю?
Thank you Tucker for exposing this. God bless you both.
I'm ashamed of my country for abducting someone like this when there's no solid proof of guilt. Democracy has been dead in France for a good 10 years now. Courage and strength to you.
You realise that this man is the keeper of the worlds larges collection of based memes.
They’re panicking because if those memes got into the hands of and in front of the eyes of _normal people,_ who knows what would happen !!!!!
🤔
My cousin (a French official) said the only reason: people were criticizing Israel for writing anti-semitic comments, Israel needed the IP addresses and wanted them banned, so they arrested him! Other than that French authorities don't have any problems with anything else.
It's not an abduction. It's a standard procedure for anyone under investigation.unless you live in Chechnya. There you would have a special treatment of you are a VIP person
Ten years? Been gone since the end of the war.
I thought France was always guilty until proven innocent?
He is trying to be diplomatic. If he says anything wrong or just discriminating about France he could go back to the locked room with the blinking light.
Heil " freedom and democracy " ?
He talks like that for 20 years. It is just his way to give the very rare interviews. It is not about France, Russia or USA - he is a businessman and creating any kind of mess with any government can't bring him any profit, only extra problems.
@borisgrechanichenko what the hell are you talking about???
@danteonkhu1669 he is always very diplomatic and polite. There is nothing special here.
Give me a Republic.@tatianalyulkin410
Дурова не могут контролировать - значит, надо посадить. Демократия по-французски.😅
Он сам добровольно туда залез. Так что пусть этим наслаждается, а не скулит. Он же, самодур, туда бежалал от "жестокой российской гэбни", не так ли?
@ЕгорВаракин-м8яв России его бы уже давно сгнобили. То что щас хреново во Франции не значит что стало лучше в раше. В раше уже давно все кончено, а в Европе конец приближается. Злорадствуешь потому что щас везде хреново Шариков?
@ЕгорВаракин-м8яа ему даже нравится. Спасибо, говорит, что конфисковали мой телефон, изучите его от и до, убедитесь, что я свой, буржуинский 🤮
la meilleur blague c'est entendre un russe parler de démocratie, alors que depuis la création du monde vous avez était victimes de tyrans, incapable de se révolter dans toute l'histoire de l'humanité, vous avez échangez des régimes monarchique avec des dictatures constantes, merci mais je préfère MA démocratie plutôt que la tienne 😂😂
@zlepoo , ты про Россию только из своих новостей знаешь. Приехал бы, сильно удивился.
Stone walls do not a prison make;
Nor iron bars a cell.
But when you find the doors are locked,
You know that all's not well.
Great interview. Pavel speaks so diplomatically. I know I would be so generous. I've used Telegram for years and it's the only messaging service/social media I use and will continue to do so. Seems to me, and maybe I'm biased, Pavel is a political prisoner to some degree and it's unconscionable to me how a government can get away with it, but he's not the first or only. Please keep updates coming. Thanks Tucker.
he speaks like a real hostage not a diplomat see the difference
Thanks Tucker for making another interview with Durov so his voice can become louder after he got arrested.❤️❤️
Si eso ocurría en Rusia se montaba un escándalo.
All the best to Pavel Durov❤
RIP France
Не жалко.
End of empire times, I’m in Los Angeles right now. Clown show all around, no political solution…
The problem isnt the migrants...whom are all sane anti woke people, it is the westarded culture
It died when they opened borders and Paris turned from the "City of Love" to the "City of r@pe"
France has been reborn many times.
They have a good chance of bouncing back.
After... you know... the chopper things have their say. Again.
Merci d'avoir publié cette émission sur telegram sinon jamais je n'aurais connu la véritable histoire de cette arrestation. Je pensais que c'était fini depuis bien longtemps !
Wow Pavel Durov here. Thank you Tucker for having him to the show.
This is not a show!
“Did you join a gang?” Gotta love Tucker, I laughed so hard.
Tucker darling, I could speak to Vicky and Johnny. We could make him an honorary Gambino. You have but to ask. 😂
Thanks Tucker for letting the world know!
Дуров мог бы выложить это в сетях) но нет, ему надо было прийти к такеру.. Ок. Когда интервью у кисилева, соловьёва, скабеевой или им подобным?)
мне тоже скиньте деняг, плиииз!
@madebykarapay Lol, Tucker does NOT need money!
@Ееее-я5с I think Tucker went to him
@droopypie I would appreciate it if you could send it, please.
The funniest thing is that those Russian “oppositionists” who accused Russia of putting pressure on Durov began to justify France when he was illegally captured.
Thankyou Tucker- Ironic as it may be - for giving Pavel a voice and a fair hearing
Translation of the Russian commentary below: In short: left authoritarian Russia to avoid going to prison. Ended up going to prison in democratic France.
довольно странно переводить это при встроенном тут же автоматическом переводчике комментариев Оо
Вывод: от тюрьмы и от сумы не зарекайся
Он переводит крайне коряво, порой даже врёт.@МаксимСтепанов-к5ж2о
At least in France they have laws, courts and don't apply tortures contrary to Russia.
@SpecialFactor-ui7oz You sound like a naive little child. Let me guess, you're Ukrainian, right? Only they have such a naive and servile view of the West. Torture is used everywhere, even in the most democratic countries. And yes, torture in Russian prisons has never been proven.
He was held, unlike any big tech CEO, because he is of Russian heritage period. It's discrimination.
Well actually mostly cause they can't control their narrative in the Telegram
Of course. Yet he doesn't think so. Is he just playing dumb?!
@Zanne11He's probably afraid to say everything he thinks due to the fact he's still being held in France.
@Zanne11 he left Russia because he perceived it unholy to cooperate with government to only get arrested by another government he deemed to be democratic and with whom he fully cooperated. What a travesty! He does not grasp the duplicity of his position yet.
Russian roots? He is Russian.
INCROYABLE JE SUIS FRANCAIS ET JAI ÉTÉ ARRÊTÉ AUSSI ET CONDAMNÉ POUR DES FAIS QUE JE N'AI PAS COMMIS. QUEL HONTE CE PAYS. SCANDALEUX DE OUF.
It is quite striking that Pavel Durov himself said that the four days he spent in an isolated cell during his legal troubles were 'excessive'-especially considering he is such a prominent figure and champion of digital privacy and freedom of expression. Even now, he remains without real freedom, as the intimidation persists. It is a pure act of intimidation against him and everyone else
It’s really not strange. It was intimidation tactics by the French to pressure Durov to give them info he otherwise wouldn’t.
but Pavel said that all legitimate information could have been provided in accordance with the law if France had sent an official request, isn't that enough?
@sifer543of course not, they (EU) want a backdoor in his app, for all the secret services. If he had done that already, he would be free
@sifer543that’s the point - they want more.. that’s why the intimidation
He lied in the first sentence stating that we went to France with no purpose. i remember him saying that Macron invited him that's why he went to France.
@sifer543This part is very interesting, indeed. It raises the question: Is that true, or not ? It seems to be a fact Telegram was answering to a very limited number of requests. They now answer to a LOT more. Durov is now spinning this as "they were not requesting correctly and now they do". In short: "It was their fault and THEY adapted, not: WE adapted to share more than we were accepting to do". But, it this totally accurate ? It seems strange, doesn't it ?
Durov is principled and brave. You can tell by the way he handled himself during that ordeal once he got out. You can tell by how he is handling this interview. You see intelligence in his eyes. The measured tone. The thoughtful way he speaks, reflects, analyses...never rushed...never hurried...taking his time to respond to each question in a precise way. He is a feeling person as he speaks of his wife n kids n mother...but he is not excessively overly emotional or isnt playing to the cameras. He is very different from Elon or Zuckerberg. There is more maturity and gravitas. This is someone you can take seriously who seems to have a very strong grasp of everything his arrest implied. Great interview. Merciox
yes fascinating person, genuine, unlike as you mentioned them, Elon or other the one.
Unfortunately he's too afraid to speak the truth about his situation in full though. Maybe someday.
@ifkipling219we all felt it in the manner he answered the questions . I hope they will set him free so he can tell freely what all this mascarade was about. Tucker answered it for him .
Well said 😊
Дуров просто дурак и нарцисс. Когда яйца прищемили, сразу по-другому запел.
Теперь многие знают, что Франция 🇫🇷 может без причины арестовать и запереть в камере человека, отобрать телефон и держать в заложниках.
Я думаю поток туристов и очень богатых и влиятельных людей сократится точно
Democracy hypocrisy
Nevertheless he is still alive and talking with Tucker. In (not so Soviet) Russia enemies of the regime are chopping lumber in Siberia in -40 degrees frost, or dying from "broken off clot", while domesticated propagandist animals are making fun on it (ruclips.net/video/uV6a9SthC90/video.html). Feel the difference baby.
Free Pavel, Snowden, Assange 🇺🇸
No
@JohnSmith-kg2rt?????? WHY????
Absolutely. When the powers that be lock them up, the populace knows they tell truth.
Stupid politicians showing their hand with their biggest weakness, unchecked power.
Pitiful.
Assange was freed last year July. Snowden will never return to the US, even with a pardon. He knows better.
no he like to be slave cos of france pr and now i know now he is just too small to confidence him. I never gona trust him again
They want back door access to Telegram.
And censorship controls
It’s the real spiritual party you cann…… wake up, wake up, wake up.
They have unlimited access, nothing is private
@tucansam5444 if that were so, they would not be openly arresting billionaires
@oversoulwastakenjust means they either got railroaded or wrong team
Quelle honte au pays des droits de l homme! J ai honte de ma France, où en sommes nous arrivés?
Thank you Pavel for #Telegram
I was in France in the late 90's and even back then it was ever so slightly creepy. I got the feeling that wasn't entirely safe there, and I never went back. I would not go today and people think I am paranoid, but it's not safe, this guy sort of proves it.
Je confirme l'Europe est une dictature
Now it's even worse in there.
Brother...Do the Snowden and Get the Hell out of there. This whole thing smells.
Doubt Russia would take him back.
Agreed! I think Pavel Durov has learned that he IS safer in Russia after all. He just doesn't want to admit it and return to Moscow with his tail between his legs.
@politichia6820 I disagree. Pavel did not defect. He is still a Russian citizen. He has not been banned from Russia. In fact when he was arrested, Putin made a statement about Pavel Durov being a Russian citizen and they're watching this situation in France very closely.
@Zanne11 Well, it's more beneficial for Russia to have Durov in jail in France than having another westernized liberal roaming the streets in Moscow. So, yeah, Putin is watching, and that's pretty much all he's doing.
France sounds like a communist country. Folks probly need to get out while they can, this is so sad.very sad.
muy buena entrevista, gran perspectiva de Durov y Carlson. Nos permite entender mejor el mundo o sus entornos. Saludos y te apoyamos Pavel.
чёт я не слышал от него "ну каждый делает что считает правильным в плане безопасности" в отношении Российских правоохранительных органов.
Так это другое, Пашка либерализованный продукт.
Молодой и глупый Паша просто ещё не дорос до суровых реалий российских правоохранительных органов )))
@the3yM не объелся еще 200 сортами мороженого
Потому что Паша -- лицемер, от которого несет гнильцой.
Российские органы сфальсифицировали дело и отжали у него бизнес. Тут немного другая ситуация) пока вообще непонятно, что происходит, маринуют
I'm French and I'm ashame. Our gouvernement is insane, we are prisoners of the European Union, infiltrated by the American deep state. Even low-level elected officials no longer defend ordinary citizens. Just look at the UK - that’s what’s coming for us. It’s terrifying. We are constrained financially, socially, politically, and intellectually. Everything is accelerating, and because it’s happening so fast, maybe we’ll reach a breaking point. My only hope is that the cleanup happening in the US will shift the balance over here. France is no longer a democracy. I’m sorry. Full support.
Your country also has a great influence of z' iOS lobbies
Why the French people didn't protest for banning encrypted messages?
@mimasam5528 80% of the French are not aware of what's going on in the world, it's just not interesting to them, that's the mentality.
UK is not in the EU
@alexandermay1337 Thank you, Captain Obvious!
Russians are known for being honest and straightforward, Pasha is being a westerner, well at least in this interview. Being very careful of what he is saying. Still grateful for him and his brother for the app. Удачи Паша
100% facts
He is being held hostage in France, of course he will be very careful what he says
@reilshatон этого хотел, сбежал из РФ, он молодец👍
@reilshat反战的理想主义者，自由选择了至今殖民非洲的法国的国籍，这是虚伪的自由主义者们应得的😂
Russia has brought forth the most acerbic critics of totalitarianism and authoritarianism.
That this would happen now in France is... poetic.
Purov is a real G, humble in all ways respects privacy above all.
It is very unbelievable to see that this Russian guy, Pavel going out of his way apologizing for the French government mistreated him badly.
My thoughts exactly. I don't know what the truth is, but I feel that Pavel is weaseling around it.
He said he prefers the west to ussr because the west has 200 ice cream flavors, wh8ch it doesn't. Or 200 tv channels , which italy didn't and still doesn't have. They are working on providing reliable 8nternet in italy
@alenaself9520 The USSR has been gone for almost 35 years...Is he an idiot? There are several hundred types of ice cream in Russia and the same number of TV channels, and interestingly, many Western Russophobic channels still operate in Russia, unlike in the so-called democratic countries, where all Russian channels have been turned off...Apparently, it's more convenient for them to fool their citizens so that the population does not have an alternative point of view on everything that is happening... George Orwell's book "1984" is the reality of Western civilization.
He is a French citizen, they are passive aggressive never saying the blunt truth, h e understands this. Whole EU is down the drain.
@alenaself9520 ice cream in Russia is much tastier than in the West, I'm telling you as a person who has lived in the USA and Germany...I'm originally from Russia
I withdrew all of my apps from France when Pavel was arrested. I also will never publish my apps there in the future.
Iam sure your a real competitor in the app game while your typing messages on RUclips .. shall I call you mr. 8w494 sounds legit
very cool. gotta take a stand somehow no matter what. this is terrible.
the World We live in right now is putrid and sick.
That'll really show them
Understandable
What apps are made in France? There must not be many....
Tbh i dont understand why Paval is so surprised about being arrested in France, it along with Germany are essentially EU HQ!
He failed to notice that the west is now becoming what Russia was 50 years ago. A police state.
He has naively idealized the "West" for many years, despite all the recent events, like many people from the Russian liberal crowd. Although I no longer know if they are so naive or if they are pretending. Pavel actively helped the EU with his Telegram on attempts to overthrow the government of Belarus in order to set up a second Ukraine there, helped anti-government riots in Russia, and so on. So, he has been cooperating with EU governments for a long time, at least performing their secret behind-the-scenes tricks, and apparently he believed that he was untouchable for his past services to the EU.
因为自称理想主义的自由主义者是最热爱战争的，所以他们来到世界上最爱发动战争的北约国家😂，并且到处轰炸亚洲普通农民和穿拖鞋的牧羊人和非洲人的北约国家总是他们心中的标杆
In Macron's demented dreams!
@MikeMike-cc4jkSo did I darling. Then in 2014 " they " killed my parents and declared a safari on my Tsarev and Gubarev.
Merci From France 🇫🇷 Tucker 👍✅🙏🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
We live in a crazy world
A mother never abandons her son. Even if he got lost in life.
Yeah- but don't you think the Prodigal Son should grow the frig up?
Hahaa you haven't met my mother 😂😂😂
Tucker is right! If this happened in North Korea ……
His name was Otto Warmbier.
They don’t have smartphones for Telegram lol
@Borondontan делайте выводы). разработчики не пользуются сами своим продуктом. и смеются в голос читая все эти комментарии, ибо они пасут овец.. стригут овец. пока те уткнулись в телефоны и забыли, что жизнь надо жить.
Gratitude et félicitations Mr Pavel Durov et Merci Monsieur Tucker Carlson aussi pour votre engagement à transmettre à tous.
Soyez tous deux bénis.
Hallucinant ! 😨
Merci infiniment Tucker pour cette interview où Pavel Durov fait preuve d'un sang-froid et d'une retenue incroyable face au harcèlement et à la tyrannie dont il est très clairement victime...
Je suis française, les gouvernements qui se sont succédés depuis bien des années maintenant sont une véritable honte pour toute la nation mais vrai que ce dernier, celui de MACRON, bat tous les records en ce qui concerne la volonté de suppression pure et simple de tous les droits de l'homme...
Longue vie à vous, courageux résistants, car voici bien la preuve que de nos jours tout est effectivement devenu possible dans notre monde, dans notre pays, y compris... l'injustice, le harcèlement et le... totalitarisme...
Disgusting these french ruling Totalitärians. Its like in many european contries ,f.e. Germany,Austria,……. How ridiculous these weak poltitians are.
Ran by jooish overlords
Все правители из ЕС - ЖАЛКИЕ МАРИОНЕТКИ
Don't talk too much, it's coming to your country too.
People use regular telephony to commit crime. Is the French Bell telephone company being prosecuted?
Talk like this is a good way to end up with a 1100% increase to the 'convience fee' or 'wireless climate surcharge' on your next bill.
Exactly my point. Also money is used to hire hitmans. Let us ban money!
As a French person, I find it a shame to do this, it's so not normal... If the French justice system were more competent, perhaps we wouldn't be at this point.
You're talking about corruption ?
Je pense que ce n'est pas une question de compétence mais une vraie campagne de déformation qui me fait penser à celle vécu par Thierry casasnovas aussi, juste parce qu'ils dérangent le système.
Pavel your mistake is like all russians do , trust the west😂😂😂.
💯 Wish him the best, but he's very naive
There are Russians who naively trust the West and there are Russians who are traitors to their motherland for money or for other reasons. It is sometimes impossible to say who we are dealing with.
@alterego157or immature
it seems to me that east (Germany) is now freedom and the west is turning into a digital surveilled totalitarian socialism
Unfortunately you're right
Again I hear about two ice cream varieties in the USSR that is not true. In Leningrad, where Pavel was born and raised, they were at least 5-6 ice cream varieties, and all of them were just superb, made of real milk, cream and chocolate.
I remember my Soviet childhood in Leningrad very well. Leningrad itself was well supplied, not like Moscow, but better than cities 40 kilometers away from Leningrad, like Gatchina. And in these ordinary cities, they usually sold two types of ice cream, white and boring creamy plombir, and creme brulee. That's it, really two types. Sometimes, three times during my entire childhood, as a terrible rarity, you could stand in a huge line and manage to buy a fruit one for 7 kopecks, or a chocolate one for 10 kopecks. In Leningrad, after standing in a huge line on Nevsky Prospect, you could buy an Eskimo, a chocolate bar on a stick. So you are both right and wrong, formally 5, but in reality, in daily access, only 2. But I really liked the children's summer camps and sports sections under the communists. Thanks to comrade Brezhnev for a happy Soviet childhood, no joke, even with lines for food and a meager choice.
The younger the liberal the worse his life was back in USSR times
Don't you get it - whatever comes from the USSR/Russia is bad by default. However, everything abroad is democratic and perfect. The dude can't even realise up until now why he was detained and what for - ethnicity is out of question according to him. Tucker tried really hard to open his eyes, but the dude is unconvinced and still surprised 😅.
@MikeMike-cc4jkThere was lines for food because prices was so low that everyone could afford it . If you start selling best beef steaks in USA for 75 cents per pound , there are gonna be pre- orders with waiting list for more than a year.
Так странно, в магазине десятки видов мороженного, а я ем все равно 2 вида, пломбир и крем-брюле
This is not about fighting crime.
It's about silencing the truth
No.
Les criminels utilisent aussi le téléphone et on n’arrête pas le PDG d’orange
Certains français ont honte de ce qui se passe en France, malheureusement ...😠Sachez qu'on n'est pas fier de tout ça 🥺
Oui
We know, its one of those things where everyone right now is under attack just to express an opinion, but I think people in general all understand we are all in the same boat even if we are all residing in different countries. I'm sorry France is going through hard times, I just hope they aren't everyone's future.
We are not free in France
en plus, il a son passport français ... la honte est palpable
Respect
Free Pavel!
Free Romania!
Long live freedom of speech!
Well yeah, but you are mixing up Durov with Tate. You need to pay attention to details otherwise you might end up supporting wrong cause, like Hamas.
@mrtopcat2No, I am not mixing with Tate. Pavel Durov said that Nicolas Lerner, the chief of DGSE (French Secret Services) asked him to censor the Conservative voices in Romania (Călin Georgescu, George Simion and their fans).
@greenspinner5024 I know my friend. I'm from Bulgaria and since we switched to "democracy" elections are manipulated, bought and falsified. Democracy has nothing to do with freedom and everything to do with propaganda giving you the illusion of "freedom".
@greenspinner5024 So why haven’t you made that argument to begin with? Plus Romania is not the only one the list here. There are others as well. Pay attention please and make your arguments precise to count.
@mrtopcat2shut up
So good to watch those videos in such crazy times. Thank you Tucker
Merci pour cette interview très intéressante, courage pour Pavel nous sommes avec lui. 🙏👍🌟
We never had privacy until we haveno government and this is the truth
Most people dont want to understand that even during the "cold war", western countries were not more free but had a higher standard of living. and that kept them happy.
Exactly right! Then they sent them to slaughter forcing them to take the jabs humiliating them to get suffocated by masks not even being able to breath properly, taking away their dignity, forcing them to obey house arrest restricting movement and sovereign basic freedoms straight out of some Orwell's '84
Give them bread and circus and they won't revolt...
Unfortunately “cold war” is still going on.
@OKKO-ethousands years later, still true
I was born 1991 in Russia, help me understand how western countries were not more free during cold war?
Why does he act like he's so surprised about everything? You're a genius and a Russian, that's why they threw you in jail Pavel.
The I’m a good honest innocent shocked citizen approach
He is surprised because for many of us Russians-his generation, well-educated, and so on-Europe and the US were a 'city upon a hill,' something to aspire to. And now, suddenly, it turns out they’ve taken a path that Russia and the Soviet Union had long since walked down.
Exactly
@69rus42 Thank you, that makes perfect sense.
Гений его брат
The government can hear every single word you say in your home, your car, your yard, your garage etc... even if you have never had a single electronic anywhere around your home.
So when the Russian govt wanted Pavel to give out the keys, he said it was violating freedoms, but when the French govt was doing the same thing, Pavel says “it’s a great country, it was just a big misunderstanding”.
we have a meme phrase for it, it goes "you don't get it, it's different" or simply "it's different"🙉🙈🙊
You dont understand it, its different
At least in France, there are not several thousand political prisoners, often held in torturous conditions, as there are in Russia.
He complied with Moscow differently
@SpecialFactor-ui7oz Propaganda
Коротко: уехал из авторитарной России, чтобы не сесть в тюрьму. В итоге сел в тюрьму в демократической Франции.
3 года назад говорил не называйте меня российским бизнесменом, настало время переобуваться, тут же пёрнул что он русский, занёс денег Карлсону и начал рассказывать какой он хороший).
@BadMuthaFuca1313но все мы помним, как Пашка уплетал колбаску с фарфоровых блюдец Иры Болгар, пялясь в смартфон 😅
😂😂
Павел не валяй дурака.
Вернись в Россию!
Western democracy and freedom is an illusion.
В России у него отжали бизнес, вынудили продать дешевле рынка. С чего он должен любить российское государство?
When this is over he needs to sue the French government into bankruptcy.
French government like most western governments is already bankrupt.
I used to believe in other silly things too. Like Santa Claus.
Yes, sure! Sue the elites into bankruptcy. What a ridiculous comment!
All EU countries are technically bankrupt 😂😂
They're already practically bankrupt
This is more a comment for Google RUclips : every time I downloaded the video (to watch somewhere without coverage ) , the audio track was set to french instead of English, even if I changed the audio track language before downloading.
You shouldn't tolerate any violation of your rights, don't take what is happening to you lightly
The whole EU is totalitarian. I live in a house prison under surveillance 24/ 7 in Slovenia.My boss reported on me to speek disrespectfully of the government. I am persecuted by SOVA e.g. secret service, as were my parents and grandparents.
I am not allowed to have any friends, family or earn money.This is going on since 2001. In 2009 I applied for a political asylum in Canada. My plea was rejected and I was returned directly to Slovenia without a possibility to escape to some other country. I am 66 now and never knew a life in freedom. There is absolute media censure. Slovenia was established by European Enlightment, which was introduced to the land by Napoleon, this political movement later endorsed communism around the world.
Nowadays this movement is active in the form of a woke culture which is present in everycountry of the world. Their only purpose is power and greed.
how do u live without earning money then?
Sounds like Marxism to me!
The answer is obvious. Move to Russia.
@JulieGolubeva He's issued a flat by the state
It's never too late to go and see a psychiatrist
Спасибо за интервью
Thanks!
Free Pavel, Snowden political prisoners
Are you the founder of "BoysTown" ? Or why do you side with Pavel ? sus
@Jesus_was_GodGeht Dich nichts an
FREE PALESTINE
Snowden is free, his family lives pretty comfortably in Russia
Shut up bot@Jesus_was_God
Thank you for showing censorship and dictatorship of France and Europe in action! Паха, держись!
And they have the guts to call those countries democracies!!! What a joke!!!
Весь мир плюс минус одинаков
Same as basically everywhere.
Везде цензура и диктатура, просто где-то очевидная, а где-то подходы похитрее. К сожалению без этого никак
@bekjanbektenov9343 Надеюсь, вы утрируете. Есть страны, ИЗ которых люди БЕГУТ, в которых полный ахтунг, а есть те, вернее, та, В которую бегут, "the last stand on Earth"
And nothing will happen because people are weak as a whole.
Cell was change for more comfortabel apt.. Still no freedom. .
Why do we still call our mobiles phones when they are so much more?😢
Telegram no 1. Best of the best!!!!!! Pavel Respect!!!!! Love!!!! Top messenger!!!!! 🌏
yes👍🏻
Can we all admit to the likely possibility that the reasons they've offered for keeping this man against his will is not the truth at all?
Потому что его родной язык - русский.😂
I feel for him. Truly. But seems that when it comes to USSR definition of Freedom for him is the amount of channels and ice cream flavors.
Very shallow indeed. Although he left it at the age of 4, so it's obvious he was influenced by western views on USSR
In the US the definition of freedom is how many different brands of breakfast cereal are on the supermarket shelf.😢
He forgot that apartments were given to people for free. Now you can have any ice cream you want but you can't afford a roof over your head.
@anastasia7091 It's your understanding of his words is shallow. Amount of channels, ice cream flavours, etc. is freedom of choice and freedom of entrepreneurship - it shows that your country, and especially state, have at least some freedoms. Yes there are way more freedoms and possibilities - and you can compare this amount between different countries.
@Skaarj8 Just as an example. In USSR there was a form of entrepreneurship (and still is in Russia, but not popular) called "a cooperative". People built 10-story apartment buildings together without a big daddy. They called "ships" in slang. Look it up. On the other hand, the amount of brands in food stores depends on many factors, especially when we are talking about something happened 50-70 years ago. Taking these and many more facts into account it's safe to say that the amount of brands and channels are not indicative of freedom.
La France toujours a côté de la réalité avec leur liberté a 2 balle
Durov's arrest was just another political statement of French government hostile posture towards Russia. EU is massively messaging to Russia that EU favors Ukraine. Durov's arrest was just another such a message.
Exactly! But Durov just keeps playing dumb and remaining in denial.
I believe it
Да кучу других людей можно было арестовать для такой акции устрашения... А если это действительно правда, то французские власти выстрелили себе в ногу. Уж кого кого, а Дурова никак нельзя назвать, пропроссийским. Он поругался с российскими силовиками и ему пришлось уехать, продав за дешево весьма успешный бизнес... Если вы думаете, что после такого он очень любит россйские власти, ты вы сильно ошибаетесь. Он польностью прозападный и либеральный человек.
Of course, they favor their puppets in Ukraine. They also spent money for a coup in 2014 and directly participated when they signed the agreement with Yanukovych posing as peacekeepers and mediators between him and their puppets in the opposition.
@Запиздюнапоругался.... Ну да ну да 😂 И сейчас прям такой сторонник ОАЭ, Франции и демократии.... Молодец Паша.
I think that Pavel is playing stupid:) He knew exactly what happened. They just wanted to show him that no matter how much money he has he is still a pawn.
You can't deny that he took the chance to make another "hero" move! So give him some credit! 😂
I how you're not one of those butthurt guys who "got scammed on TON" 😂
Павел либо очень наивный сам по себе, либо максимально старается фильтровать все, о чем говорит. И да, Павел, ситуация с арестом никак "не связана" с тем, что ты - русский. Смешно прям. Удачи во Франции.
🫡👍
Та сначала кажется наивным, но к концу интервью видно, что он просто тупой дурак
Bro, you can obviously see that he's trying so hard not to say something which can be used against him because he's still under investigation.
Павел просто прикрывает своего брата :)
второе, конечно
So sorry for you Pavel Dourov! In the country of human rights, my country!! My grand parents and theirs before them, fought for freedom... we won't give it up, the light forces are by our side!! ❤
❤ greattings from Guatemala. I agree with Mr. Pavel. The sad part is that we give our information just to be included in the technology and the new systems of society.
It’s as if this young man is holding back from saying more.
Yep!!! Gestapo is behind the door!

It was bc of Covid. We all had to use telegram to read all the canceled and censurerad
Убежал от диктатуры 😂😂😂
Дык диктатура запада - свободная, а в России - диктаторская )))
Ага) и присел на оба стула))) и с пиками и с х**ми)
@edilemma8052 It's not - свободная, chains on your mind is not freedom, only an illusion.
@edilemma8052oxymoron.
это другое!
Glad to know you are free Pavel. France had joined the cult regime and it is very sad.
France is utterly corrupt and anti-democratic. Macron is a psychopath and Marine Le Pen is controlled opposition. Avoid travelling to France !
He can't leave France
@peaceandlove544 He has already left France. Fortunately.
@peaceandlove544 ботам похер))
He's in France -- he's NOT free.
It is remarkable, listening to Pavel, how naive he still is. He was literally arrested and thrown into prison, and then house arrest, by the government of France, on absolutely ridiculous legal grounds. Yet he still seems to have faith in Western "rule of law" and good faith. This is a naivete that I have found endemic among Russians. I have lived among them for a decent amount of time, I have visited their country many times, and I speak Russian (not well, but enough to understand how they think). Even today, so many Russians still have this weird inferiority complex about how the West is supposedly better. Only now, three years after the start of the SMO, Russians are finally beginning to realise that they have more freedoms, and a higher standard of living, than the Euroweenies in the EUSSR. And, paradoxically, the ones who still cling on the most strongly to the delusion that the West is still the bastion of rule of law and freedom, are precisely the Russians who (like Pavel) spend the most time travelling through the West. It is a curious psychosis, which I cannot fully explain.
So true, thank you for writing this. I've experienced it many times and it's incredibly frustrating and perplexing.
@Cast36x Because it IS a Special Military Operation. If the Russians go to war - REAL war, the kind only they know how to fight - Ukraine ceases to exist in a few months, and the capitals of the Western nations that support it, burn within an hour.
As for freedoms - here is just one, and it is the most important one that matters: I can express my Christian faith openly and pray in public, and no one can arrest me for doing so. If I tried that in the UK, outside an abortion clinic, I would be arrested. If I criticise a certain (((tribe))) for their excesses and stupidity, I can do so in Russia without fear of being branded a bigot - I cannot do that in most European countries, where hate-speech laws prohibit it. I have more freedom of speech in Russia than I do in the EU or UK. It is that simple.
This is a thing for russian liberals which goes back to many centuries ago. Even Dostoevsky wrote about this: "One of the defining traits of Russian liberalism is its deep contempt for its own people. The Russian liberal is, above all, a lackey, constantly looking for someone’s boots to polish."
Zhuravel was stupid enough to accept money from the SBU to burn a Koran in public. He was lucky to get prison. In Britain, if you burn a Koran, you end up dead, and the police don't bother trying to investigate your case. In fact, you can be arrested in the UK as a Christian for praying silently outside an abortion clinic.
As for the clearing of other sects - I celebrated Midnight Mass in the Anglican cathedral in Moscow in 2023. From what I'm seeing, other denominations of the True Faith are welcome in Russia.
Ці казочки гарно заходять тукера аудиторії. Деякі в них навіть вірять. Але це одні лише балачки. Коли ж діло доходить до справи то кожен москаль котрому вдалося на московії заробити чі наворувати при першій же можливості тіка на Захід. Звичайно, тим хто "служит гасударству" так зробити не завжди виходить, бо калєгі можуть атамстіть - чайком з полонієм напоїти, чі дати понюхати Навічка смачного як отим ватним Скрипалям. Але їхні діти, сім'ї- всі на заході. Бізнесмени середньої руки, в котрих немає жорстких зобов'язань перед кремлем - всі на Заході. Ними кишать всі європейські міста. Даже губьєрнатор скрєпнаго Сєвастополя і тот в душному Лондоні осилився а не вільній Кєрчі. Так що розказувати Павло, Тукер і всі інші політруки-агітатори можуть що завгодно, але допоки вони самі та їх сім'ї не переїдуть жити в московію до того часу це лише блуддивий лицемірний пиз...ож або словоблудіє по московинськи.
