This could very well be.
This could be maybe one of the most important shows ever.
This.
This could be it.
Or maybe not.
But this is.
This is something you're going to need to earmark, bookmark, send to your friends, send to your kids.
Just remember this moment.
This is it.
You know, we always love this notion of profundity and prophecy and what does this mean in the secret of life.
I've come up with 20...
Just jotted them down.
20 rules.
20 that I want you to remember.
20 specific I think critical directives because I am in the point in my life I'm serious.
Maybe you're feeling like this.
I don't know.
But at this stage in my life right now for some reason I feel this sense of I got it.
I understand it.
A sense of complete and total oneness with reality.
I got it.
I see it.
I understand it.
I'm telling you, it sounds perhaps bizarre, but it's the God's honest truth.
I feel it.
And I've noticed this.
And I've written these down, and I want you to remember this.
And maybe, you know, maybe...
Maybe if I'm successful, maybe, maybe you'll feel better.
Maybe you'll say, you know what, I understand this because I'm telling you, everything is fixable.
That's the best part.
Listen to what I'm saying.
Everything is fixable.
Disease isn't.
There are some people who have diseases where they say, this is terminal.
There is nothing.
There is nothing that can be done.
Nothing.
Sad to say.
This patient is dead.
This situation is done.
We're not in that way.
Let me say this again, and nobody is telling you this because everybody is involved in this.
It's easy.
The question is, whom do we get?
To fix this, that's another story.
That's the issue.
It's easy.
It's so clear.
There's nothing deep about this.
There's no mystery to what's going on in the world.
Nothing!
Nothing!
Isn't that great news?
It's here.
It's obvious.
Every day is like, duh.
Of course, I'm just sitting here in this room full of people saying, well...
Is anybody going to join me in this?
No.
Well, we're going to change that.
We're going to change that because the challenges are new.
The problems are new.
Believe me, you're going to see things.
We're going to see rolling blackouts.
You're going to see problems, more supply chain, more COVID, more disease, more masks, more shutdowns, more whatever.
It doesn't have to be, but it's coming.
It's coming.
You know it's coming.
But it doesn't have to be.
The solution is simple.
It's simple.
You just say no.
You just say no.
But in the meantime, we have to wait through this.
Gas prices.
Blackouts.
See, privation.
Privation is the issue that people don't get.
Privation.
To be deprived of things.
And this is the perfect time right now for me to mention my great, great, great sponsor.
And your reaction has been incredible from MyPatriotSupply, the largest preparedness company in the world for food, emergency food, and emergency preparation.
MyPatriotSupply.
It's preparedness.
Be prepared.
Remember the Boy Scouts?
Be prepared.
And remember this.
Your ignition switch.
The only thing you have to remember is PrepareWithLionel.com That's it.
The link is right here.
PrepareWithLionel.com Food.
Food.
What happens in a global food crisis?
I'm reading about this everywhere.
They're talking about it in other countries.
They're talking about it.
Our good friend Paki Sharma on Wiyan and the Pacific Coroner are talking about rice and grain and what's happening with Russia and Ukraine, the breadbasket.
They always talk about food.
They don't talk about it here because we have this idea that it's always there.
PrepareWithLionel.com We always think it's there.
And MyPatriotSupply is the largest preparedness company, period.
Millions of satisfied customers.
And then people will always say, well, I'm going to get my I'm going to get my I'm going to get my dehydrator out.
What are you going to make?
Jerky for three months?
What are you going to do?
Make what?
Banana chips?
What are you talking about?
Do you understand the level of complexity that's involved?
At a level when people call up and say, well, I can't, I don't know if I can, that's, you know, that's too much.
Excuse me, this is an emergency.
People act as though they can put things off.
They can say, you know, I don't want to, excuse me, no, I think I'm going to opt out of a food crisis.
I'm going to opt out of that.
I don't need this.
I'm just, you know what, don't worry about that.
Oh, really?
You're not going to worry about that.
No, I'm just not there.
Well, millions and millions and millions of people are.
PrepareWithLionel.com I'm not...
This isn't something like, do you really need this?
Do you really need this?
You know what I mean?
This isn't one of those toe fungus commercials or one of those, do we need this?
Do I need...
Is that...
This food lasts 25 years in storage.
Think about this.
They've got included within this breakfast, lunches, dinners, drinks, snacks, 2,000 calories a day.
Let me say this again.
Emergency food.
Not, let's go into the larder.
Let's go into the pantry.
What do we have here?
Anything?
Hey kids, anybody for stroganoff?
It doesn't work that way.
This is...
Emergency.
Three months!
And if you act right now, preparewithlionel.com, you can save $150 with a three-month food kit.
So that's it.
Information's right there.
Preparewithlionel.com I'm not selling you on this.
I'm telling you about this.
This is it.
And now you know.
Okay.
The rules.
What do you need in your life to make you feel, to put you on board with what's happening?
Well, let me send you.
Let me send you some information.
I came up with 20 rules today.
20. And tomorrow I'm going to come up with 50. Maybe 12. But these are 20 rules.
And I want you to listen because you're smart, you're aware, and you know what's going on.
Okay?
Because preparewithlionel.com is, yes, about food and preparation, but it's also getting your mind ready, going on into the world, arming yourself with a way of thinking, with a philosophy, with a religion.
I don't want to use the word religion.
That perhaps is a bit much, but a faith system.
Rule number one.
Believe nothing.
Believe nothing.
Belief is faith.
And I don't know where faith came along without evidence.
I don't know where this came from.
I don't know.
People say, well, you don't.
No, no, no.
It's about faith.
Excuse me.
Faith is what?
What is it?
Hope?
Wish?
I'm not talking about religion.
I mean faith that everything will be okay.
Faith that your government will always be here.
Faith that there will be food and water and electricity.
Believe nothing.
To believe.
I believe this.
I believe this.
I can prove this.
I believe this...
Believe.
It's a concept which I'll never understand how people say they believe in things.
You don't believe.
Where's the proof?
Where's the evidence?
Where's the fact?
Where's the data?
Where is this?
People say they just...
I swear to you, they will come up with stuff and they think they know there's nothing.
They come up with...
I mean, I can't talk to you about the subject matter here because these folks won't like it.
But suffice it to say, be very careful with what you believe.
Now, number two.
Listen to everything.
Consider everything.
Consider.
Open mind.
Be a sponge.
Listen to everything.
Nothing is too far-fetched.
Nothing is too old-fashioned.
Nothing is too predictable.
Nothing is too...
No, no, no, no, no.
You listen.
Open mind.
You're willing to consider anything.
Anything.
Can't say that enough.
But believe nothing.
You want facts.
Somebody along the way told you, oh, you don't need facts.
No, no, no, no.
You just have to believe.
Look, everybody else is believing it, so there must be something to this.
What are you, nuts?
Are you crazy?
Yeah, but you know, if you believe this, it'll make you feel good.
Isn't it better to believe this than not?
Even though there's no evidence of it?
Isn't it better to believe it?
Doesn't it make sense to you?
Just to believe in something?
What?
Well, what if you don't believe and you're wrong?
Wait a minute, what?
It's better to believe it because it could be right.
And if you don't believe in it, excuse me, but my believing in it doesn't make it true.
Yeah, but you think you believe.
See, because belief doesn't create something.
Just because I believe, I'm holding a vase in my hand.
It doesn't mean it's real.
But at the same time, rule number two, listen to everything.
Number three, the greatest, one of the greatest, one of my aha moments, one of my epiphany moments, one of my, wow, I get this, I understand, yeah!
I love the epiphany, I love the aha.
Marshall McLuhan said, little lies, little secrets, little, little.
Little are hard to keep secret.
Little lies.
It's hard to keep secret.
But big lies are easy.
The bigger the lie, the easier it is.
Why?
Because of your incredulity, especially when it has something to do with something that's horrible.
Rule number three, big lies are easy to keep secret.
Easy.
And whether it's events in the world from assassinations to coups to lies to terrorism to shootings to disease to death to viruses, whatever.
The bigger the lie.
For example, something that did not occur is the easiest.
Because you're going to think, you mean what?
You mean that never happened?
No, no.
No, no, no.
See?
Wait a minute.
You mean that's the way it happened?
Yeah, no, no, no.
That's the way we think.
Big lies.
Big lies.
Because are easy to keep secret because if you're incredulous, you can think, no, no, this can't be.
It's everything.
The bigger the lie, the bigger the...
If you say, that never happened.
That never happened.
Next, rule number four.
Tolstoy and history.
I say this every day.
There isn't a day that goes by.
There isn't a day that goes by when I don't think this.
Not a day.
And it says, history would be a wonderful thing if only it were true.
Oh my God, that's it.
That is it.
See?
Your life, your sense of Justice.
Order.
What happened?
Our place.
Where you fit in.
It's wonderful.
You create the reality you want.
And if only it were true.
If only this stuff made sense.
If only it were true.
Our history.
D-Day.
The greatest Western civilization.
Trump.
Biden.
Whatever it is.
We create it in your own mind.
Have you ever been, now listen to me carefully, if you talk to siblings, same family, same family, same house, do you ever sit around, especially when you're older, and you're talking to each other, and a brother or sister of yours will tell you what happened in your house with your parents during a particular period of time, and you say to yourself, that's not what happened.
What?
No, that's not the way I remember it.
What do you mean that's not the way you remember it?
No, that's not what happened.
Yes, it did.
No.
Did you ever look at your parents?
And look how your siblings think about your parents?
Wait a minute.
I don't want to go Smothers Brothers on you, but Mom always liked you best.
You know that's true, right?
You do know parents.
Think about their kids differently.
Whoever gave you this idea, well, it's like, who's your favorite kid?
They have their favorite kids.
I don't want to break it to you.
But you have your favorite parent.
If you have two, one's a different one.
Of course it is.
But that's history.
And history is this thing that you collectively agree with.
That's what Napoleon said.
History is a myth that man agrees to believe.
And we just, it's not true.
You should even call it history.
You should call it public consensus, kind of what people think, fads, popular things.
It's not history.
And if you don't know history, you're doomed.
But the history that you do know is all nonsense.
It's false.
It's fictional.
It's ursa.
It's synthetic.
It's a wonderful paradox.
History would be a wonderful thing if only it were true, but there is no history.
Who is history?
Who?
From what point of view?
Let's say you're going to go to a meeting.
Let's see, today we have a special guest.
We have a war hero from Vietnam.
Ooh, that's right.
He saw a battle, highly decorated.
His name is General Nguyen Van...
what?
Yeah, he was with the NVA.
He was under General Jap.
You've got an NVA?
You've got the enemy?
No, he's a hero.
Well, maybe to you.
He's a hero in...
What?
Would you want to hear Russian military hero?
Hell no.
But he fought with us in World War II.
Stalin was our ally.
Oh yeah, that's right.
History would be a wonderful thing if only it were true.
Rule number five.
Don't confuse media with politics.
I told you this.
We have a friend, lovely woman, who said, I love Mark Levin.
Oh, okay.
Is Mark Levin running for anything?
No.
That's a TV show.
Yes.
But I never miss him.
Okay.
It's good.
I like him.
Good man.
I really do.
But that's not a political party.
That's just...
I know.
But what do you want to do?
That's all I want to do.
That's politics to me.
It's a show.
My politics comes on Sunday night at 9 o 'clock.
That's my show.
That's my politics.
That's all.
And my opposite politics...
I hate the view.
Well, that's okay.
But that's not politics.
No, I can't stand it.
I know that, but that's just a TV show.
I don't understand it.
We're confusing this stuff.
Isn't Elon Musk great?
You're believing this?
By the way, I should have thrown in one more rule, which I'm going to parenthetically, life is professional wrestling.
You're falling into this.
One's a heel, one's a baby face.
The media...
This doesn't, this doesn't, they don't do anything.
Jim Jordan!
The biggest pfft of them all!
Jim Jordan!
Oh, I'm on this show!
Hey, the G6 trespasser!
Here he did this!
And the G6!
Jim, are you going to do anything?
No!
Jim, do you, Jim knew that?
Oh, Jim was great!
Remember during the impeachment hearing?
He knew every fact!
On January 2nd, January 5th, January 5th, he knew everything!
You know what happened?
Pfft!
Nothing.
Nothing.
What do you do?
He goes on Fox News because that's politics.
But we didn't elect you.
They didn't elect you to go on TV or to tweet or whatever.
We're confusing this.
Oh, he slammed him.
He nailed him.
That doesn't mean anything.
I'm pulling a Quincy here.
It doesn't mean anything.
I love those people.
God bless Fox News.
God bless them.
But the antithesis, CNN, doesn't mean anything either.
Politics is elections to Congress.
It's not TV.
That's great, but that's not it.
Okay.
Rule number six.
The left-right paradigm is through.
It's done.
It doesn't mean anything.
The left-right.
You're a lefty.
You're a Democrat.
You're a Marxist.
You're a Marxist.
You have never heard a Marxist on TV.
Never.
Ever.
AOC is not a Marxist.
Ah.
Rashida Tlaib is not a Marxist.
Ayanna Pressley is not a Marxist.
Ilhan Omar is not a Marxist.
Nancy Pelosi is not a Marxist.
They're not a communist.
They're not socialist.
You're into these.
Left, right, over the right wing and the left.
There's no such thing.
The left-right paradigm is an illusion.
Two sides of the same coin.
You've artificially created this labeling.
You've created this.
And it means something to you, and it is a total and complete waste of time.
They're not leftists.
They're not liberals.
They're not progressives.
They're not.
I don't know what it is.
This idea of left and right, it makes absolutely no sense.
It's wrong!
I don't know what this is.
You've got to listen to what is said, listen to the result, and then decide.
But don't think that you're using stuff from the Archie Bunker days.
Liberals.
What?
No!
Number seven.
The mobile phone.
Not the computer.
Well, the internet, yeah.
Cellular phones changed everything.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No.
You have still not understood everything.
Everything.
It's like taking a human being and removing an eye.
The human being only has one eye now.
Only has one arm.
It's lost to you.
A tail grew back.
It transformed everything.
It added, took away.
We will spend the rest of our lives, if you want, understanding this ubiquitous I can't even I can't even approximate the initial interstitial connective tissue explanation of what the thing did.
It changed everything.
Politics, relationships, existence, reality, music, race, sexuality, gender.
Gravity, science, education, status, it, it, it, it, it, it, and not to jump the gun, but metaverse, you cannot even, even remotely, remotely, in any way.
Appreciate what metaverse, metaverse is going to do.
Dark web?
It's all the dark web.
Your own individual internet?
No, no, no, no.
It is going to be the complete and total extinction of a human, of the human species.
You cannot imagine what that is.
We'll leave it at that.
Leave it at that.
Number eight.
Everything It's a conspiracy theory.
In 1967, as you know, and I tweeted something about this, the CIA came up with a directive, a memorandum,
that said, by virtue of the fact that people were getting a little tired of the Warren Commission, because nobody believed this fantasy, That was the explanation of JFK's assassination.
Nobody believed this for a moment.
Nobody!
And still don't!
Nobody does!
Nobody!
So they had this idea, we're going to put out this piece, this theory, this phraseology, this mindset, this labeling, diversion, obfuscation, this kind of a verbal Kind of a...
It's almost like a...
I don't want to say a stalking horse, but this camouflage, if you will, that will throw people off.
Number one, we're going to weaponize a term.
Number two, we're going to claim that, and this is the most important, and you hear it today, the number of people that would have had to have been responsible for this, there's no way you're going to keep this quiet.
You can't pull off an assassination of a president.
You just can't do it.
You know how many people are involved?
A couple?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
And people, whether it's 9-11 or the Manhattan Project, you know how many people knew about the Manhattan Project?
A hundred-some thousand, but it was compartmentalized.
And that was it.
Now, I just went up and I put this, and if you please, I put my, Gee, what the?
My Twitter account.
And there was this piece I put up which is very, very important.
And Twitter is still pretty doggone good.
I like this one fellow that says, Alec Baldwin has killed more people than the J6 protesters.
But listen to this one.
Where was this?
This was very, very, very, very important.
And it was this one...
Oh, here we go.
This is from AAP.com.
This was...
Listen to this.
Listen to this.
How good they are.
It says, tinfoil hats not needed to repel CIA conspiracy theorist creation claim.
This is from January of 2022.
And it attempts to dispel the notion of the memorandum that was released that indicates that this was not a part of some CIA plan to weaponize the term conspiracy theory.
And do you know why?
Get ready for this.
The reason why is because the term conspiracy theory existed prior to 1967.
That's their debunking!
Yes, we know people.
Oh, no, no.
They just...
This is the subsidiary rule here.
The fact that they have fact-checkers is so brilliant.
So brilliant.
Honey, we're going to get involved, I know, in this argument, so we always talk about this when it comes to this subject.
So what I've done is I've enlisted...
A truth checker for us to go to when we come to these moments of impasse.
And I know we're having a difficult time about my mother and this and that.
So what I've done is I've called this person here.
Yes, I paid them.
And he's going to answer.
He's going to make a ruling on this.
Yes, I know.
Yes, I hired him.
But no, he's going to be...
No, he's called a truth checker.
Well, that's what he's called.
Yeah, so just, and he'll always side with me.
It's the most important thing in the world.
The word conspiracy is from Latin, you know, conspire, to breathe with an illegal, secret, dark confederation, a partnership between two or more people.
It's there.
Everything.
Russia, Ukraine.
UN expansion.
The 2022 election.
The investigation of the 2022 election.
Everything.
Everything is a conspiracy.
Everything there is.
So what do they do?
Because it's true, they tell you, don't use that word.
And they say, you're crazy.
Just like if you believe in God, you're a Bible thumper.
You're a religious zealot.
See how they do that?
Listen to me.
Rule number eight, everything is a conspiracy theory.
Rule number nine, microscope, telescope.
Don't want to look near.
Don't want to look back.
Not just look at it.
Don't want to get clung.
Sometimes you go, oh, I see what this is.
But if it's a mosaic, being too close throws you up.
I don't know, what is this?
I see a colored tile.
Step back.
Oh!
Sometimes you're going to do a perspective.
Oh, I understand.
Microscope, telescope.
Very rarely just looking at it within the right distance.
It's one or the other.
Very important.
Number ten.
Labels kill ideas.
Cannot say this enough.
Cannot say this enough.
Cannot say it enough.
Labels kill ideas.
Like you can't believe.
When you call something left, call something right, call something conservative, call something liberal, call something this, you just destroy it.
I've done this before.
Well, I don't think Johnny Cash is country.
No, what do you mean country?
Well...
Country?
I mean, like Roy Acuff country?
Or Ernest Tubb country?
Pretty soon you're talking about the label, and you're not talking about Johnny Cash anymore.
Well, I don't know if he's a conspirator.
Well, you know what?
You know, a, excuse me, a neoconservative is not a conservative.
Actually, they're a Laps Trotskyite.
Actually, they're a Straussian.
They're leftists.
You see, a neoliberal is actually, no, see, that's laissez-faire economics.
No, no, no.
A libertarian.
There's a Republican who wants to smoke dope, but a Libertarian is somebody who's a fiscal, and then we're off to that.
There's no name for this.
There's no name for this.
There's no name for the world right now.
Nothing.
There's no name.
And if there was a name, so what?
I don't know.
It's like you stepping in something and saying, what is this?
Is this a...
What are you doing?
I'm going to get the label.
Just put it down.
Don't worry about what it is.
Don't step in it.
Don't pick it up.
Is this fecal matter?
Is this something from a cat?
No, I don't know what that is.
I can't even tell.
What are you...
Who cares what this is called?
Well, I don't know if this is...
Are they woke?
Would that be woke?
Would you call them...
Well, I don't know if they're woke.
He'd be, well, awake.
Well, he's awake.
Well, he's not.
You know, Trump's not a conservative.
Well, you know, he's not right to...
Are you a right to laugher?
Would you pro-choice?
Are you a constitutionalist?
Oh, is that what you...
Would you call yourself a Fox Newsman?
Or were you more...
Are you a CNN liberal?
Are you a Fox...
Are you an Eisenhower Republican?
Or a Roosevelt Republican?
Would you be a log cabin Republican?
Would a log cabin Republican...
Stop.
Just stop it.
Stop this nonsense.
I can't explain it to you.
Rule number 11. The war is on children.
Everything is children.
Not dope.
Not fentanyl.
Not open borders.
Not votes.
It's children.
Children, at every level there is.
Screw them up in school.
Screw them up in life.
Use them, sell them, market them through predation, commercialization, sexualization, destroy everything, their innocence, drag queen, drag shows, this, food.
Give them a...
Give them a phone.
Remote learning.
Screw them up.
Wear a mask.
Don't go outside.
Shut up.
Come inside.
Poke them.
Stab them.
Jab them.
We just want the next generation.
And put them into schools.
And if they do go to school, we want to indoctrinate them.
We want to take those beautiful, precious minds.
Imagine this globe is a mind.
And we want to screw their minds up and their perspective.
They won't know what's what.
Who's a man?
Who's a woman?
Who's a mommy?
Who's a daddy?
What's love?
Nothing.
We don't want them to speak.
We don't want them to chat.
We don't want them to write.
No signature.
No cursive writing.
No poetry.
No nothing.
We want zombies.
Zombies that we can commodify, that we can merchandise, and that we can completely destroy.
The war is on children.
Every conceivable level.
And do you know?
Do you know what the real problem is?
I'll tell you what it is.
The real problem is your incredulity.
Going back to McLuhan.
I don't want to...
I don't know.
Don't bring up the kids.
I can't...
No, please.
No, no.
That's how.
That's how.
You understand this?
Rule number 12. Stupidity is fashionable.
Can't say it enough.
Stupidity is fashionable.
Oh my God.
We love stupid.
We love stupid, ignorant, incurious, dumb, dim-witted.
We love Iconas, Boeotians, lunkheads, ignoramuses.
You name it.
Boeotians.
That's a great word.
B-O-E-O.
Like amoeba.
Boeotians.
Somebody from Boeotia.
Greek areas where they were reputed to be stupid and dull.
Imagine that.
Jeez.
Boeotians.
Idiots.
We love idiots.
Oh, we love it.
Because we just love to make you stupid.
Keep you stupid.
We want to give you stupid news and stupid facts and stupid things and stupid movies.
We don't want you to read.
I read somebody that said, some are books.
Some are books.
You know, to read at the beach.
Read at the beach.
What are you talking about?
Kids aren't going to the beach.
They're living in homes, in their basements, like mushrooms.
They're watching nothing.
They learn nothing.
People are so mightily stupid today.
It's stupidity in colors.
Magnificence of stupidity.
Inane, vapid, void, vacant, vacuous, vapid.
That's enough V's for you.
Veriform and varicose, which makes no sense whatsoever.
And you know this, but you're not like that.
That's why you're here.
And by the way, your support for me, you have no idea what it means to me.
You kidding?
A me?
On regular TV?
Get this guy off!
What is he saying?
He wants people to be smart?
Get him off!
What is he talking about?
You love that.
You love this.
You love this.
And I'm targeting you.
And you're going to target others.
And we're going to be out there like missionaries.
We're going to grab people.
And your support.
You've got to support.
You've got to support us.
Me.
And so many great people like me.
Not these people on TV.
Not the J6 hearings, which nobody's watching.
And if you want to support and you want to keep this going, you listen to me.
PrepareWithLionel.com Support the sponsors and also support.
I've got the link there where you can say here, thank you.
Let me tell you something.
We're all in this together, brother.
Alright?
Stupidity like you can't believe.
Number 13. Hope you're keeping track of this.
In curiosity.
This is the thing...
When you don't have any...
There's two things.
Epiphany.
I got it.
That's a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
I understand.
I go through this every day now.
Every day, it's like, I got it.
I got it.
I understand.
I got it.
By the way, all of this can be fixed immediately.
I keep saying this.
I keep telling you.
This is not, this is not, this is, this is what we do.
But in curiosity, the idea of that, why is that?
How does that work?
Remember when kids were so great, why is the sky blue?
Is the sky blue?
If you go to another planet, is there sky blue?
Why is this green?
What is blue?
Is my green your red?
What does that mean?
How high is up?
Is there a God?
Because it always was.
What happened before the Big Bang?
Was there a Big Bang?
How does that work?
If we had one hand in the middle of our chest, how would we clap?
You know, there's always somebody thinking of some different way.
There was a fellow, there was a while back, during Carlin, during his moments of, he was thinking about various things, and he would be doomed today.
Look at the level of our geniuses today.
Kid Rock!
Kid Rock!
Dear God!
God!
When Jordan Peterson is our Bertrand Russell, our, let's face it, Hitchens, Buckley, Gore Vidal, even our comedian Bill Hicks was great.
Just, I mean, just, this is it.
A man who spends forever talking about pronouns and gender?
I don't understand this.
How do things work?
I'm so curious.
And what does it for me, whenever I stop and I see the clouds, or the swaths, the hordes, the pastels of birds, the murmurations, the schools, how people move in unison, how we think in unison.
Oh my God.
It just, it, it just.
Wow.
To the day at the Museum of Natural History.
Was it Natural History or MoMA?
MoMA.
They have displays of this Lincoln's supposedly his clothing and the history of fashion.
And there's so much...
By the way, most people who...
It's good to see the museums are, you know, packed with people.
Just curious about something.
There was an event we saw at MoMA.
Never forget this.
Never forget this.
It was the thing that just absolutely knocked me out.
There was a fellow person, people, who took movies.
And they had a 24-hour rotation.
And at midnight, they took a movie where somebody said, it's midnight.
And at 12.01, they found a movie where somebody said 12.01.
Or there was a clock in the background that said 12.01.
Or a digital clock.
They did a 24-hour period, and you went.
And you watched it.
And they had it synchronized so that it was showing all around either the world or the country.
And there were people lying on the floor in sleeping bags.
They were there for the entire event.
24 hours.
As long as you want.
It was the most brilliant thing I've ever seen.
We were there like 3 in the morning.
I was getting up early.
I said, come on, we've got to go.
I said, we can't go now.
It's 3.05.
So waiting is 3.30.
It was this incredible sense of brilliance.
And you just looked at it.
And you didn't look in your hand.
And you didn't mumble anything.
It was just this, wow!
Wow!
We do it sometimes.
I hate zoos.
But at least, I hate zoos.
Hate them.
But to see a kid, do you ever see a kid's face?
That's that, do you see that?
Curious, what is that?
How is that?
Do you ever see a botanical garden?
Oh my god.
Just anything.
Watch a, and that's why YouTube is so good, you can watch incredible, wonderful documentaries on E.O. Wilson on ants.
Edward Wilson.
Remember when I met him?
I saw him at the LaGuardia.
He was so nice.
His book, Consilience.
How about ants?
Bees, ants, honey.
How did they make this?
How did they make that?
Curiosity.
We're not inspiring that anymore.
We're not inspiring that.
We're incurious.
Number 14. Critical thinking and issue analysis.
This, I can't, I can't, I can't tell you enough.
How do you handle a problem?
How do you do it?
What's the issue?
What are we talking about here?
What's the issue?
What are we talking about?
How many people do you know, they can't argue?
They go off in tangents, excuse me, no, no, no, pardon me, that's not what we're talking about.
What are you talking about?
Pardon me, no, no, I can't, I can't.
No, no, that's not it.
No, the issue is, in law school, the old blue book, well, still, we have IRAC.
IREC.
Issue, Rule, Analysis, Conclusion.
What's the issue?
Okay, what's the rule?
Let's analyze it.
Let's conclude.
In the old days, you know, burglaries are breaking and entering.
Well, when I went into the house, I didn't break into it.
I came in, but I stayed.
You see, I came in when I was allowed in, but I hid in the closet, and I waited for you to close the doors and lock the doors, and then I came out, and then I stole the stuff and I left.
Isn't that burglary?
Well, what does the rules say?
Well, what's the issue?
The issue is, if a person didn't break in, but he entered or remained, does that count?
That's the issue.
If you don't understand the issue, you can't answer the question.
That's it.
What's the issue?
Is January 6th Think about this.
What are the issues?
Is it insurrection?
Number two, is insurrection a crime?
What?
Is it a crime?
What does insurrection mean?
That's like me calling things stuff or people have these ideas.
I'm going to swear out a complaint.
What does that mean?
I don't know.
I saw it on TV.
Citizens arrest.
What's that?
You know.
Good luck with that one.
So what's the issue?
Is there a citizen's arrest?
You can't even go there.
Liz Cheney, what do you want?
What's the issue?
What is this all about?
We're always thinking about the issue.
The issue is about the fact that these people realize they're going to be doomed.
They're going to be doomed coming in midterms.
They recognize the fact.
They're doomed.
They're dead.
They're through.
They're finished.
They're done.
They're scared.
As you say in Hell's Kitchen, they're a-scared.
That's what this is about.
Why?
Why?
I'm just asking questions.
Why?
Why is Liz Cheney doing this?
She's at the end of her trajectory.
Political control.
What's going on here?
It's about Trump.
What are they doing?
What are the issues?
What are they finding?
What?
Issue, issue, issue, issue.
Forget the rules.
What are the issues?
Why are they doing this?
What did Trump do?
What did he know?
And if he said this, did Trump ever do anything where he systematically actually asked for an overthrow of the Government?
Another issue, if I were to go in and take the Capitol over, that is a building, does that take over the government?
If I go into the Department of the Interior, and I take it over, and I secure it, and I seal the doors, and I'm standing there armed guard, have I taken over the government?
No, it's just the Department of the Interior.
Well, they say those people took over the government?
The government?
That's an insurrection?
That?
Well, they wanted to block the vote.
Can they block the vote?
Do you think they could block the vote?
How do you block the vote if they don't have the vote today?
Now, granted, under seditious conspiracy, it's a different story, but do you think, do you honestly think, seriously, this is the end?
They're never going to vote again?
Remember what happened?
Oh, yeah, that's right.
We never found out who won.
Why?
Well, because those people, that guy dressed up like Chewbacca with the Valkyrie helmet, he came in there and they blocked the vote and they never voted again because they only had this one 10-minute period of time.
It's the only time available on the planet for you to vote.
And they prevented it from happening, so they never voted.
And they blocked the vote, and it never happened.
And it was a funny thing.
They overturned.
It was a revolution.
What?
That's right.
People got phone calls.
All right, everybody, do me a favor.
Yes, the United States is no longer in business.
Yes, yes, right.
The man with the Valkyrie helmet came in here.
Yes.
Chewbacca.
And we're turning it over to him.
Yes.
Donald Trump.
Why?
Because of this handful of people.
They did this.
Aren't you going to resist?
No.
Aren't you going to put down this revolution?
No.
Remember the Chilean?
Remember Allende and Pinochet?
Remember that one?
They actually had armies.
The United States.
How many?
Here's another issue.
Let's say there were a thousand.
I'm going to be generous.
Let's say there were a thousand people.
Can a thousand people?
Yes.
A thousand.
Those people could have overthrown the government.
Could have?
Yes.
It's like if I go into a bank like this with my fingers in.
Give me the money.
Is that robbery?
Well, it could be.
Come on.
This is it?
Give me the money.
I'm serious.
Don't make me use this.
No.
But I got a gun.
Those people?
Threatened?
What are we talking about?
I'm not even done with the questions yet.
It's critical thinking.
It's issue analysis.
What's the issue?
When I hear one more person talk about I know about white supremacy.
Excuse me.
What's the issue?
What is white supremacy?
What's white supremacy?
And so what?
If you think you're better and you're supreme?
Okay, 15. Oclocracies.
Oclocracy, mob rule.
It's Le Bonnegan.
It's crowds.
It's how people work.
It's how people think.
Number 16. I already spoke about that.
Shadow governments, cryptocracy, and the deep state.
The government is not in charge.
There is nobody in charge.
You know it.
I know it.
We all know it.
Take every organization.
I don't care if it's from school government, local government, city government, anything.
It's not, believe me, it's not what you think.
It's the people behind the issue.
Who's really behind this?
Who runs the NFL?
The players?
No.
The owners?
Maybe.
Who else?
Who else?
Number 17. Please don't take this the wrong way.
Beware religion.
Religion is the most dangerous thing, if in the wrong hands, if done incorrectly.
Religion is a wonderful thing.
It's like a gun.
It's like a knife.
It's like a bomb.
It's like a razor blade.
It's wonderful.
Religion, oh my God, be careful.
Religion is the only thing where sometimes some people...
Because there is no such thing as religion.
It's your religion.
It's your take.
It's your...
Look what they're doing when they're talking about Roe against Wade.
Because it's religion.
It's God.
It's a life.
It's this.
And the other people are...
And the only thing even more dangerous than somebody who is of religion is somebody who is an atheist.
Somebody who is a radical.
Atheists.
Somebody said one time, if atheism is a religion, then not collecting stamps is a hobby.
Religion, plus or minus, is the most dangerous.
It's because there are no rules.
You can say whatever you want.
You can think whatever you want.
I had somebody the other day tell me, came up with this idea of God.
He goes, I'm sorry, that's what I think.
And it was the most preposterous thing.
He just made it up.
And I can't say, you know, that's crazy.
Well, that's my faith.
It goes back to my faith thing.
Just be careful.
Religion can be wonderful.
It can be very, very scary.
Number 18. What is the purpose of a new world order?
See all these colors?
See these countries?
See this fragmented mosaic?
Here's our side of the globe.
Just a couple.
Here's the other side.
Wow!
Religions, faith, languages, cultures, food.
Jurisdictions.
Monetary units.
Oh my god.
Borders.
Jurisdictions.
Cultures.
Traditions.
Too many.
One world government.
One world order.
One.
Unipolar.
This is what Putin talked about.
Unipolar.
One world.
One system.
One perspective.
Number 19. Schools indoctrinate and kill creativity.
Schools are...
We're lost.
We're lost.
And maybe what's worse now than ever are the...
I guess the Ivy League and the elite schools.
Probably worse.
And finally, rule number 20, and every day I'm going to have a new set of 20. Before today, think, think, think.
Shut up, think.
Think about it.
Think about it.
I had a friend of mine one time who said, never trust anybody with white pants.
What?
I said, See that guy there?
He's got white pants on.
You ever trust somebody in a white pant?
I said, why?
He said, think about it.
And you know what?
When I finally said, okay, I give up.
Why don't we?
He goes, I don't know.
I just wanted you to think.
I'll never forget that.
Because I was thinking more about white, the color, and I had so much fun thinking about something.
Thinking about something.
The same guy, by the way, owned bars.
These kind of like rough bars.
These are bars you don't want to go to.
And he only sold half pints.
I said, why don't you sell like a bottle?
Like a fifth or whatever?
He goes, no.
Why is it?
Think about it.
I said, I'm not going to go do that.
Think about it.
He goes, no, no, no, no.
There's a reason.
I said, okay, why not?
He said, with a half pint.
People can say, sorry, it's mine.
I'm drinking that.
But with a bottle, I've got to give it to my friends.
I can't be cheap.
There are going to be fights.
Okay, there was a reason for that.
But the idea of thinking.
Think about something.
Think.
Think.
Don't answer.
Don't talk.
Think.
Think.
I was watching this morning a wonderful documentary on Margaret Thatcher.
I learned so much.
She has nothing to do with it.
But she does.
Same problems, same issues, same everything.
Think.
It made me think.
Think about how she and Ronald Reagan were.
Think how she tried to define conservatism.
Nobody's even talking about conservatism.
Nobody even mentions it anymore.
I don't even know what that means.
Which is good, I think, because we don't need any more names.
But think.
Think.
Think.
Why is this so?
Why is this happening?
Why?
Why?
Think about it.
Ask questions, but think.
Just be happy with wondering why.
What is it?
And don't look for the answer.
This bothers people.
Enjoy the thinking part.
Enjoy the questioning.
Be at home with it.
Ask yourself.
Just, it's like looking at it.
Thinking is looking at it.
Thinking is like, Looking at it from all different...
Thinking is just taking it in.
Once you answer the question, you're done.
No, think.
Just imagine.
Imagine.
Think can also be remember, recall, think, analyze, review, digest, compare, contrast.
It can be all kinds of things.
People don't like to think.
People don't look up words.
People don't look up facts.
How many times have we heard, honey, people say, What does that word mean?
What does that mean?
Look it up.
We heard one the other day.
You ready for this?
I could not believe this.
Don't say where, but what was the context?
Remember the girl who said, I don't read?
Huh?
Remember that?
Girl, I think in high school, or about to graduate, she says, I don't read.
Very matter of fact.
And not for any reason other than saying, I remember saying, well, you know, you should read about it.
No, no, no, I don't read.
I don't read.
That's like me saying, I don't fish, or I don't play racket sports, or something that was considered, you know, unnecessary.
We have so many problems.
Now, here's the good news.
I know you might be depressed right now.
We can fix this.
All of this is fixable.
Everything I've said.
Like that.
Everything.
Everything.
There isn't one thing I mentioned.
One thing that I told you that we can't fix.
Some of it makes sense.
You know, labels don't mean anything.
Okay, fine.
Don't mean labels.
Tell me what you want to do.
You want to run for something?
Tell me what you want to do.
The world right now is changing so drastically.
You have no earthly idea.
No earthly idea how the world is changing.
And one more thing.
The reason why they can have J6 hearings in the first place and throw everything off, basically just steal the notion of prime time is because there is no prime time.
Because it doesn't matter.
Because I realize this is the last gasp of this.
All right, my friends.
Thank you for that.

Faye Page, Angelica Creek.
We haven't done this.
Let us now, which is the most important, let us end with you telling us where you are now.
Just tell us where you are.
Give us a name.
And don't say Arizona.
Give us a city.
Give us a unique name like Butt Fork, you know, Indiana.
Clausen's Gimlet.
Idaho.
You know what I mean?
Where are you?
Scarlet Letter, where are you?

Valamand, Switzerland.
I'm saying it wrong.
I know I am.
New Haven.
New Haven, Connecticut.
Thank you.
New Haven.
You must know, obviously, Frank Pepe's.
And all the pizza.
New Haven.
That's a pizza capital.
East Sussex, UK, La Crosse, Wisconsin, Charlotte, North Carolina, Hagerstown.
Look at this.
Isn't this beautiful?
I love that.
My friends, you have a great and a glorious and a wonderful and a safe and a terrific day.
I thank you.
I thank you for your instincts, for your passion.
Thank you for...
Honoring me and Mrs. L with your presence.
Have a great and a glorious day.
Until tomorrow, 9 a.m. Eastern Time, same bad time, same bad channel.
