BlackRock's Ideological Control
00:02:58
|
|
| Hey everybody, down to Charlie Kirk Show. | |
| BlackRock, the 10 trillion, $10 trillion company that is controlling so much. | |
| Larry Fink is exposed in this video. | |
| Well, not him, but his company is. | |

| I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. | |
| Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. | |
| I want to thank Charlie. | |

| His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. | |
| We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. | |
| That's why we are here. | |
| Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com. | |
| Full transparency, this is a weird news day. | |
| It is a weird news day. | |
| You know, I watch and listen to the news ahead of this program to prepare. | |
| No one agrees on what the lead story is there. | |
| You got John Durham in front of Congress. | |
| We'll talk about that. | |
| You got this very interesting. | |
| You can't look away, but it's just tragic. | |
| This submarine story with a billionaire who says he doesn't want white people working on a submarine. | |
| The whole thing is very, very sad and strange. | |
| We have the Arizona State University story that we will highlight in the coming hour, where my appearance talking about honoring the Sabbath triggered a revolt on campus and the termination of an entire center at Arizona State University, because at Arizona State University, Dennis Prager and Charlie Kirk coming on campus to talk about health, wealth, and happiness is too controversial for Arizona State University. | |
| So we'll talk about that. | |
| But I think a very important lead today, and we will have James O'Keefe to talk about this story, is what BlackRock is doing to our country. | |
| So James O'Keefe came out with a video which showed that a recruiting director of BlackRock was bragging about how BlackRock is able to purchase politicians, how war is good for business. | |
|
Forcing Behaviors Through Assets
00:13:34
|
|
| Now, most Americans do not know about BlackRock. | |
| You, the audience, though, you're hyper-engaged. | |
| You're very well educated. | |
| You're starting to realize and recognize that it's not just Congress. | |
| It's not just the executive branch. | |
| That there is a puppeteer class, people that are making things happen. | |
| And one of those institutions is BlackRock. | |
| Now, remember, BlackRock and organizations like BlackRock used to come under a lot of scrutiny from Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. | |
| Do you notice how Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and AOC, they don't attack the big banks nearly as much as they used to? | |
| Yeah, they'll do some patty cake and hearings, but where's the forceful calls for breaking them up or chipping them away or investigating them? | |
| They've quieted that down. | |
| Well, it's because Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Elizabeth Warren and the radical progressive base, they realize how helpful BlackRock is being. | |
| They realized that instead of trying to break up BlackRock, which was always a massive wish, a big wish, instead, why don't you just take it over? | |
| So, BlackRock was founded in 1988 by Larry Fink and a couple of other people. | |
| Larry Fink is still running BlackRock. | |
| There's really nothing that sexy about what BlackRock does from a business model. | |
| They take pension funds, they take endowment funds, they'll take funds from universities, they manage it and invest it. | |
| And they've done it by all objective financial metrics rather well in a disciplined way. | |
| They deliver returns. | |
| And now, all of a sudden, here, we're on 2023. | |
| BlackRock has $10 trillion under management. | |
| $10 trillion. | |
| BlackRock, which started as just kind of a simple, boring, okay, yeah, they are managing the California Pension Fund. | |
| They are managing the Iowa Pension Fund. | |
| Who cares about BlackRock? | |
| Okay, they invest in stocks and private equity deals, and people roll their eyes. | |
| Why would we care about them? | |
| Okay, they have assets under management. | |
| They do a 2 in 20 split. | |
| So they do a 2% management fee, 20% of the gains. | |
| That's basically how all Wall Street deals are structured, some with a little bit different variation, and no one really thinks about it. | |
| But BlackRock has now metamorphosized, it's transformed into something completely different. | |
| BlackRock is not strictly a financial services firm. | |
| BlackRock is now the tip of the spear in transforming Western society into a globalist, technocratic uniparty regime. | |
| This is largely driven by Larry Fink. | |
| So BlackRock, again, is a little bit unusual. | |
| I want to reiterate this. | |
| We kind of know what Pfizer is, we know what Walmart is, but by revenue, BlackRock doesn't have that much revenue. | |
| They're only 184th in revenue amongst members of the Fortune 500. | |
| They make $5 or $6 billion a year, which is a lot, but it's not mind-blowing. | |
| Apple turns 20 times that in profit. | |
| So where does BlackRock's power come from? | |
| How does a company that turns $5 or $6 billion in profit, which is not nothing, but it doesn't blow you away? | |
| There are private companies that turn more profit than that. | |
| Cargill, for example, turns more profit than that. | |
| Where does their power come from? | |
| Well, here's the way it works: BlackRock gets all of these assets under management, $10 trillion. | |
| And then BlackRock is able to call shots with publicly traded companies on board spots and positions, behaviors, and political attitudes. | |
| So, for example, if BlackRock is going to go buy a stock, let's say they go buy Coca-Cola, which has always been a favorite of Warren Buffett's. | |
| It's stable, it turns a profit, not that sexy, it's going to give you a good return over 10 years. | |
| It's a relatively well-run company. | |
| Well, BlackRock will come in and say, okay, we're going to go buy $8 billion of Coca-Cola stock, but Coca-Cola, how many lesbians do you have on your board of directors? | |
| What's your racial composition of your HR department? | |
| So BlackRock uses this massive asset pool, $10 trillion, as a bludgeoned force object to remake corporate America in their image. | |
| Global wealth is estimated to be about $460 trillion. | |
| BlackRock by itself is managing more than 2% of that. | |
| That is a lot. | |
| They control 2% of all the wealth on planet Earth. | |
| Now, BlackRock very explicitly now no longer invests their assets on expected profitable returns. | |
| They invest their assets based on ideology. | |
| So James O'Keefe has this video that is going viral and we're going to talk to him about it, but I want to play it for you. | |
| This is a recruitment director for BlackRock talking about how war is good and we purchase politicians. | |
| Very illuminating. | |
| You wonder who, Charlie, who runs the country? | |
| Is it Soros? | |
| Is it this person? | |
| On the short list of the people with the most power is Larry Fink, the $10 trillion man. | |
| Why is it that companies that used to share your values have more pride flags than American flags? | |
| Why is it that they're so worried about climate change? | |
| Who is the conductor, the grand maestro of the ESG regime? | |
| It's Larry Fink, PlayCut 60. | |
| They don't want to be in the news. | |
| They don't want people to talk about them. | |
| They don't want to be anywhere on the radar. | |
| Why not? | |
| Don't know, but I suspect it's probably because it's easier to do things when people aren't thinking about it. | |
| All of these financial institutions, they buy politicians. | |
| You can take this big sum of money, and then you can start to buy people. | |
| You can buy politicians and then you can buy people. | |
| I hope you know what ESG is. | |
| ESG is a corporate social credit score system that is derived from Maoism as a way to rank companies on their environmental social government. | |
| Governance, ESG. | |
| Environmental, are you fighting climate change? | |
| Social, are you, how diverse are you within your social policy? | |
| One of their planks is community engagement. | |
| Are you donating the BLM? | |
| And then finally, governance is your governance. | |
| How many trans people do you have on your board? | |
| So BlackRock controlling all of these assets then uses it to force behaviors. | |
| And this is not some sort of conspiracy theory. | |
| This is not some sort of abstraction. | |
| Larry Fink himself has stated that you have to force behaviors. | |
| So much of our politics, so much of what's going on in Ukraine, so much of what is going on domestically here with corporate America is being driven by a company most Americans do not know. | |
| The $10 trillion man, Larry Fink, running BlackRock. | |
| Have you heard about this? | |
| The USDA revealed that countless crops planted last season won't be harvested this season. | |
| Thanks to extreme weather and global fertilizer shortages, the crops didn't stand a chance. | |
| This means potential food shortages and higher prices are ahead. | |
| That's why now is the time to stock up on emergency food from MyPatriot Supply, the nation's largest preparedness company. | |
| Right now, they are offering a new lower price on their popular four-week emergency food kit to help everyone prepare. | |
| This kit will offer your family peace of mind when food shortages strike. | |
| It includes breakfast, lunch, dinners, drinks, and snacks with more than 2,000 calories every day to sustain you in tough times. | |
| And the food is absolutely delicious. | |
| Your whole family will love it. | |
| You'll laugh at grocery store prices when you have these meals. | |
| To steal this price, go to preparewithkirk.com. | |
| You are nine meals away from anarchy. | |
| Are you prepared? | |
| Go to preparewithkirk.com. | |
| You get free shipping too. | |
| Do not delay. | |
| That is preparewithkirk.com, preparewithkirk.com. | |
| So BlackRock is running the American economy. | |
| It's very interesting. | |
| When I started in the conservative movement, one of the biggest complaints was that we can't have central planners running our economy. | |
| I largely agree with that. | |
| It's a great argument against the Federal Reserve. | |
| It's a great argument against this ridiculous infrastructure planner, having people like Pete Buttigieg or whatever calling shots. | |
| But I think one of the fault lines, one of the failings, one of the shortcomings of the DC-based, quote-unquote, conservative movement, I put in air quotes, is they've completely ignored how non-government institutions can do the central planning too. | |
| You see, when I got my start in 2012 or 13 with Turning Point USA, I was immersed in Austrian economic literature. | |
| It's very interesting. | |
| I encourage you guys, if you are bored and want to challenge yourself intellectually, you can read it. | |
| Some of it is not exactly applicable. | |
| Some of it is really, really helpful. | |
| Luddon Nises, Murray Rothbard, Hayek, Henry Hazlitt, great stuff, really built a foundation to how to understand economics. | |
| But again, you shouldn't only make decisions politically through an economic lens. | |
| It should be incorporated. | |
| But one of the major contentions of Murray Rothbard and Ludwig von Nises in particular is that central planning is evil and that that is going to erode human liberty and flourishing. | |
| However, if I were to offer a little bit of a critique, they would only possibly entertain, Milton Friedman made, I think, he didn't quite see this either. | |
| The only type of short central planning that could come is through the government. | |
| But what about a private company that ends up central planning your entire economy? | |
| They would say that's never going to happen because there will be competition and market forces. | |
| Now, mind you, the devil's advocate to my own contention here is, you're right, BlackRock can be disrupted by financial services companies like Strive or non-political actors. | |
| But sometimes it's very hard to dethrone a corporate oligarchy that literally owns your politicians. | |
| And you could also say that these private companies are too big because the government is too big, because they're able to get benefits from the government. | |
| So don't blame the free market or don't blame private actors because the government itself, the Leviathan, is too big. | |
| I have said before in my speeches that capitalism is the most moral and effective force in human history. | |
| I still believe that. | |
| It is the greatest poverty elimination machine ever. | |
| Markets work. | |
| Liberalizing your markets is generally a very, very good idea. | |
| It would be good for poor people in North Korea to be able to own stuff and to be able to trade and to start businesses and to create value. | |
| Simultaneously, we should be able to say that a $10 trillion company, well, that's not their value, but how many assets they have under management, that power is going to corrupt absolutely. | |
| So Larry Fink, this is an incredible piece of tape here, was asked about this, and he says you have to force behaviors. | |
| When we think of a tyrant, when we think of a despot, we think of a Mussolini, we think of somebody in government. | |
| But what I think what we are all starting to realize is that the behavior of a tyrant is not limited to government. | |
| That Larry Fink is acting like Mussolini, yet nobody voted for him. | |
| He never had to get petitions signed. | |
| He never had to be on a ballot. | |
| He never had to engage in a debate. | |
| Instead, he took the labor of police officers, the labor of firefighters, the labor of teachers via their pension funds to use it as a blunt force instrument to force you To become more left-wing, multicultural, open-border, whatever term you want to fill it with. | |
| Listen to this: PlayCut 42. | |
| Well, behaviors are going to have to change. | |
| And this is one thing we're asking companies. | |
| You have to force behaviors. | |
| And at BlackRock, we are forcing behaviors. | |
| And if you don't force behaviors, whether it's gender or race or just any way you want to say the composition of your team, you're going to be impacted. | |
| We're going to force you. | |
| Larry Fink and BlackRock, they are major institutional investors in Apple, Chevron, and Disney. | |
| Maybe that explains why they've been acting so strange. | |
| That's not the only reason, but it is an element. | |
|
Choosing Not To Fear
00:15:11
|
|
| ESG will spread to every aspect of your life, to your travel, to your diet, to housing, to what you own, to what you can buy, to what you can watch. | |
| So many of you are afraid. | |
| Charlie, I'm afraid of socialism. | |
| I'm afraid of socialism. | |
| Well, I'm going to tell you, there's another thing you should be afraid of. | |
| You should be afraid of a $10 trillion company acting like an oligarch, acting like a left-wing fascist against our values. | |
| And that is Larry Fink and BlackRock. | |
| People ask me all the time when I travel about Strong Cell. | |
| Charlie, is Strong Cell legit? | |
| Charlie, do you really believe in the anti-aging properties of NADH? | |
| Well, it's not a matter of whether or not I believe it. | |
| It's the science. | |
| You guys could check it out. | |
| Fact check me. | |
| Look at NAD and see what it could do for you. | |
| But look, I take NAD every single day. | |
| Strong Cell is a scientific breakthrough in cellular health replenishment that combines NADH, CoQ10, and marine collagen to boost your body's cellular function. | |
| I personally take Strong Cell every day, and so do a ton of Kirk listeners. | |
| Go see the reviews for yourself. | |
| If you are someone who relies on caffeine or sugar to get yourself going, then you have to give Strong Cell a try. | |
| I only have one important request: I recommend this life-changing product. | |
| You've got to give it at least four weeks to realize the best results. | |
| It takes a little time to re-engineer your body's NADH. | |
| Think about it. | |
| It's been on decline in your middle-aged body for a year or so. | |

| Our podcast is doing very, very well. | |
| Yeah, I got to tell you that the hunger and the appetite and the desire to hear the truth, it is growing. | |
| In the last week, I'd say that we on the spicy meter were probably eight out of 10 on our podcast. | |
| We had a whole thing on glory holes and my live reaction to learn what that is. | |
| We had a whole thing on Juneteenth saying the things you're not supposed to say. | |
| Pride month, smoke detectors. | |
| It's been a month. | |
| No, it's been a week. | |
| I'm sorry. | |
| Let me see here. | |
| One, two, three, four, five. | |
| We are the sixth conservative podcast right now out there, which is great. | |
| Center right conservative podcast. | |
| Joining us now is James O'Keefe from OMG Media, O'Keefe Media Group. | |
| James, congratulations on this new story. | |
| You do not stop. | |
| You have not allowed all the nonsense you've been through to deter you. | |
| Tell us about your latest story. | |
| Well, this was a BlackRock recruiter guy who recruits all the people in the financial world, and he's talking about things that we all know to be true. | |
| Does not shock you or I, but it's shocking that he's saying it. | |
| That these places, they run the world. | |
| They bribe senators. | |
| They own politicians. | |
| He talks about the Ukraine war. | |
| He says it's good for their business. | |
| It's effing good for our business. | |
| When Russia bombs Ukraine, the price of wheat goes up because they're a major supplier of wheat and grain. | |
| And he says all these horrible things. | |
| He said, it's almost dark and evil to see him saying it, but it confirms a lot of our suspicions. | |
| So, this is a part one of a series we have in these large financial institutions that own such a large stake in everything from Google to Fox to Time Warner to Comcast to Pfizer. | |
| This is a company that most people are learning more about now, the Equality Index, as they call it. | |
| So, we're looking into all these things, and it's just part one. | |
| So, who was this individual? | |
| What was his title? | |
| Because you know how this works, James. | |
| The immediate response is low level, no duties, bluster under the influence of alcohol. | |
| What's the truth? | |
| I mean, I think if I caught the CEO himself, they would say the same thing. | |
| Even if they are caught on tape saying the horrible things, they'll say, well, nothing ever happens to them. | |
| They need to be arrested and so forth and so on. | |
| But he's a recruiter and he's on his LinkedIn profile. | |
| He's responsible for bringing in a lot of the people, a lot of the hiring, the financial people that do these things. | |
| And he's just one of many that we will and are being exposed. | |
| But of course, they're going to say that. | |
| But in order to expose the collective, you have to expose the individuals in the collective. | |
| If you just talk about the collective, nothing will ever happen. | |
| This is Alinsky, though, right, James? | |
| Let's talk about this. | |
| So, you know, Alinsky really well. | |
| The left knows this very well. | |
| BlackRock is this abstraction, right? | |
| It's just this big thing. | |
| That's right. | |
| But if you personalize it and then you polarize it, all of a sudden there's a face. | |
| Explain that. | |
| Yep. | |
| Alinsky wrote in Rules for Radicals. | |
| One of his rules was pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. | |
| Conservatives are horrible at this. | |
| They'd rather just go on and just bloviate about these large abstract topics as if that's going to make a difference. | |
| It's quite ironic they say that this doesn't matter, but them talking crap about abstract topics is going to matter. | |
| The only way that you can change things is to individualize it and personalize it and make it about one individual at a time. | |
| Because what's happening right now is we broke this story. | |
| It's got hundreds of thousands of likes, tens of millions of views, hundreds of thousands of tweets, and it's inspiring other people within BlackRock to go to o'keefmediagroup.com, submit a tip. | |
| In fact, just three today inside the company want to blow the whistle, maybe not overtly, but vis-a-vis undercover recordings or anonymously through me about what's happening there. | |
| People are waking up to this, the ownership that, and the reason why it matters is it affects journalism when media corporations cannot report on pharmaceutical companies because that's where the lion's share of the revenue comes from. | |
| Or when, like, for example, today, Charlie, if you Google my name and this story, you won't actually see anything about this story. | |
| You'll see about, you know, the Project Veritas thing from February on being sued because you know what? | |
| BlackRock owns 6.5% of Google. | |
| That's $45 billion out of a $1.56 trillion market cap. | |
| So people need to know about this. | |
| And this guy, Sergei, Sergey is his name, a recruiter at BlackRock, he says it. | |
| He says, we run everything. | |
| We own these politicians. | |
| War is good for us. | |
| Bad things happening. | |
| People dying over in Ukraine helps our bottom line. | |
| He's the one saying it, and it matters. | |
| We have said for a while, it's obvious, but now we have evidence that companies are profiting off of the slaughter of innocents in eastern Ukraine. | |
| This is the undercover video that OMG O'Keeffe Media Group has put out, where this individual, Sergei, Sergey, Serge, whatever, says that you could buy a senator for a mere $10,000. | |
| If you were wondering if your politicians are for sale, your suspicion is largely correct. | |
| PlayCut 61. | |
| First, there's the sentence. | |
| This guy's f ⁇ ing. | |
| You got 10 grand you can buy. | |
| So I can give you 500K right now. | |
| Don't question that. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I did it too. | |
| So, I mean, the obvious is that your reporter was obviously a girl way out of his league. | |
| So, he was trying to, you know, over-impress her, but sometimes you slip the truth. | |
| So, James, is he really bragging that BlackRock is engaged in bribery of politicians? | |
| Yeah, he says these senators are, quote, effing cheap, 10 grand, you can buy a senator. | |
| And again, I'm quoting him here. | |
| You can take this big F ton of money and buy people, buy people. | |
| It's not who the president is. | |
| It's who's controlling the wall to the president. | |
| You buy your candidates. | |
| He says it doesn't matter who wins. | |
| They're going to be in my pocket is what he says. | |
| Now, what's interesting about this guy is he actually deleted his LinkedIn account. | |
| They always delete their LinkedIn accounts, Charlie. | |
| But I spoke to a managing director at BlackRock of Corporate Communications. | |
| I spoke to him yesterday. | |
| He talked to me for a while, but declined to comment. | |
| I also sat down with this guy, Sergei is his name. | |
| Serge actually sat down with me at a restaurant and then proceeded to walk down the street. | |
| I was talking to him. | |
| He walked into a police station, the 50th precinct in New York City. | |
| It was bizarre. | |
| He invited me into the police station with him. | |
| So he kind of had this, it could have blew his mind seeing me the way, I don't know, usually people don't run towards the police in these circumstances, but they always call the police on me, Charlie, when I'm asking them questions. | |
| But it's one of a series of exposés that we're doing. | |
| I found the most profound comment from Serge Varley to be, quote, normal people don't give a SHIT about these harsh realities. | |
| It's beyond them. | |
| Sergey was suggesting most people are asleep. | |
| Most people don't care about how the way the world really works. | |
| And I think that is changing. | |
| I agree with what you said in the beginning of this program that I think people are waking up and becoming angrier. | |
| I think the rise of RFK is an indicative barometer of that. | |
| And the removal of all these people like me and Tucker and many others, it's an indication people are waking up. | |
| Yeah, and the bad guys are getting paranoid and they're freaking out. | |
| They're not acting disciplined and they're starting to get exposed. | |
| You know, think about this. | |
| It's an obvious question that everyone in the audience is thinking. | |
| Could you pick more powerful opponents? | |
| I mean, you're basically, you know, just think about this. | |
| You go after Pfizer and then that whole nonsense happens to you at Veritas. | |
| And then now you're going after BlackRock. | |
| I think it's really courageous, but I want to ask you about how you process that. | |
| You know, you're picking the fights with the biggest of the big. | |
| And you know what that comes with. | |
| It comes with a price and a cost. | |
| I hope everyone in the audience knows James O'Keefe does not have to be doing this. | |
| Most people in right-wing politics or the conservative movement are as worthless as I'll let you fill in the blank. | |
| James, you are picking the biggest enemies. | |
| You could go lower. | |
| You could just kind of do a Fetterman thing here. | |
| That's important, but you're going after the institutions, James. | |
| What motivates you? | |
| And are you afraid? | |
| I choose not to be afraid, although sometimes it's terrifying. | |
| I mean, we had a denial of service attack today and yesterday on every tip line inundated with thousands, tens of thousands of bizarre government messages, state, municipal, federal. | |
| I try to focus on the passion and the artistry and the storytelling and the inspiration that I talk to people, but it's terrifying, Charlie. | |
| And I think you know what I mean. | |
| There is, you know, to quote the scene from Apocalypse Now, behind every behind inside every human heart, there's a line that kind of separates good and evil. | |
| And there's some evil. | |
| And a lot of people, even good people out there, have a temptation to be evil. | |
| So it's terrifying the world that we're living in. | |
| However, I don't really pick these stories. | |
| They pick me. | |
| And there's nobody else that's really willing or able or put in a position the way that I've been put in. | |
| Because if you're a journalist working for ABC or Disney or any of these companies that are ostensibly owned by a pharmaceutical company or owned by BlackRock, literally 20% of the company is, you can't tell the truth. | |
| And I think the biggest reason why I'm so attacked is because I can't be controlled. | |
| People really want to control me, and they're threatened by the fact that I cannot be controlled. | |
| So I've leaned into that. | |
| Rather than give in or compromise on my core tenants, I've just run towards the fire. | |
| And you're right, there's a powerful company. | |
| And it can sometimes be terrifying. | |
| But I'm very inspired by the fact that we've had a few BlackRock insiders reach out to us even today, even today at O'KeefeMediaGroup.com. | |
| That's what keeps me going. | |
| I hope you all appreciate this. | |
| A hundred days ago, James O'Keefe was experiencing board fights and all that. | |
| Everyone knows the story. | |
| It's all out there. | |
| 100 days later, James O'Keefe is laying shots on target against a $10 trillion company. | |
| That's unbelievable. | |
| To be able to get the reporters to get the story out there, I mean, this guy is a magician. | |
| And so I want to ask James for people out there that are afraid. | |
| You walked through this. | |
| Here you are. | |
| You've exposed Pfizer, exposed BlackRock, exposed Fetterman, which I just found to be hilarious. | |
| Previously, you've done DHS, HHS, ACT Blue, which is a huge story. | |
| What's your advice to the person out there? | |
| I am afraid. | |
| I am afraid. | |
| James O'Keefe. | |
| I would say, what exactly are you afraid of? | |
| I would say there's a cost to doing nothing. | |
| So he'll say, well, I have kids. | |
| I'm going to go live in some part of Texas where I'm not affected by this. | |
| If you think you're not going to be affected by this, you're wrong. | |
| I mean, it's like that old cliche. | |
| First, they came for this person, then they came for that person, and then they came for you. | |
| So I would say, I don't know what world we're going to be living in, but I'm an optimist. | |
| I think that things are getting better. | |
| I think people are certainly waking up. | |
| I think RFK actually might beat Biden. | |
| That's my belief. | |
| And I think that people are not so much asleep, but afraid. | |
| This guy in the video, Surge, I think the most profound thing he said again is that normal people don't give a crap, that this is beyond their understanding. | |
| So I think this country was never intended to have everyone so focused on politics. | |
| But I do believe that if you're afraid, understand that one day, you know, that heart in your chest will stop beating. | |
| We're all going to die. | |
| All going to die. | |
| And I've lived 100 lives in my 38 years on this planet. | |
| I have been so fortunate to see and experience so many things that have strengthened me. | |
| And I think suffering is part of life. | |
| Pain is part of life. | |
| It's part of the human condition. | |
| But it really, it's good for your soul to tell the truth and to live not by lies, as Soltz and Neeson once famously said. | |
| It's a great, that's correct. | |
| A great thing for the human soul to live not by lies. | |
| And I encourage everyone to not live by lies. | |
| James, the most profound thing you said is you choose not to be controlled by fear. | |
| You have a choice. | |
| You have free will. | |
| Victor Frankl says in Man's Search for Meaning, an equally important book as the Gulag Archipelago, is you could choose what to make of your pain. | |
| So all of us are going to experience pain, heartache, sudden death, you know, collision, health issues. | |
| But what do you make of that pain? | |
| Well, if you find meaning in your pain to point towards something good, true, or beautiful, well, that is, he calls it logotherapy. | |
| Then all of a sudden, you are able to be in charge of your life. | |

|
| Other people are not. | |
| I hope the conservative movement takes notes because a lot of people on the right are afraid of BlackRock and Pfizer. | |
| James O'Keeffe is not, and he's exposing the deeds of darkness, which I believe is one of the most virtuous and biblical things a human being can do. | |
| God bless you, James O'Keefe. | |
