Everything is changing.
Everything is changing.
Before we even begin this piece, someone was commenting on our live chat.
That the Phantom of the Opera is closing after 35 years.
Today we're going to be talking about a lot of things, but the first thing I'm going to tell you is that there are certain models that are changing.
And when you watch any particular system, you have to see what ends rather than what changes, what's new.
For something to be new, something has to close down.
This is the cycle of life.
Apoptosis.
This notion of death.
Kind of a synchronized, organized death.
You need a death to something in order for there to be something new.
This just goes without saying.
And if you notice this, we get the actual apoptosis is the death of cells which occurs in a normally controlled part of the organism's growth or development.
Jumping into this very quickly, one of the reasons why we as human beings do not have webs anymore, and why we have this thing called the perlicue, this part of the hand here, this webbing, is apoptosis, where the cell growth stops.
So there are things that are changing, whether it's CNN, whether it's Broadway, whether it's disco, whether it's flared trousers, whether it's whatever it is, things change.
In order for something to be new, something has to close.
If everything remained, the world would be so cluttered, we couldn't function.
If nobody died, if Benjamin Franklin were still in charge, we'd have buttoned shoes.
We'd be wearing powdered wigs and perukes.
So, this is a very good thing when something ends.
The question is, why did it end?
Why?
And the reason why it ended is because Phantom, as Mrs. L will tell you, because of her years of expertise in the media, in the entertainment media, for years it was solely driven by tourists.
Tourists came to New York.
It's the largest theater, I think, in New York City.
And the thing is, tourists are, tourist numbers are falling dramatically.
And it's not because of COVID.
It's because of crime.
It's because of a lot of things.
Certain things are changing.
Certain things are just changing.
Broadway is dying.
And it's dying on a number of reasons.
A number of levels.
First, it's the fact that we need new, good stuff.
Number two, I don't know if people recognize the importance of this.
It's also very expensive.
Extremely expensive.
And for any other things.
So, this is just part and parcel.
I just saw this.
As one of the messages before we open.
And it's very, very interesting.
That's part of today's subject matter.
By the way, theoretically I come up with a title.
Today is Finding a Coherent Political Message.
That's today's subject title.
But frankly, the titles mean absolutely nothing.
They're a place I could change my mind halfway through it.
Something seems to be more important.
That's what we're going to be talking about today, and that's the purpose of this.
I've got a lot to talk about, a lot to discuss on this day of ours.
I welcome everyone, give you a hearty hello and a high old silver, and a welcome to this thing of ours.
Those of you who are hearing this live on YouTube, those of you who are hearing it later on Spotify or Apple or what have you, you're going to be hearing this later on.
Maybe you might be watching this later.
My message is completely different because I am a person who does not fit into this world and does not fit into this medium because I'm looking for someone who shares my particular way of looking at it and I will not find it.
Now that doesn't mean I'm correct.
It may mean that I'm daft and crazed and a lunatic and demented.
That could very well be.
It could very well be.
I stand corrected as it were.
But a couple of prefatory notes for a little bit of an introductory note.
A little prolegomenon.
It's called a praesi.
We will call it that.
A kind of a preface.
A proem is another good word for this.
A couple of things for you.
First and foremost, and this is important.
Understand thank you.
And it's very, very important.
Very important that you like this channel and subscribe to it.
As you know, everybody else always says that because of the algorithms and the like.
Wait a minute.
I just received something.
Okay.
Now, first and foremost, we...
Are right now heavily censored and edited.
We are diluted.
This is a watered-down review.
What I'm giving to you right now, what I'm telling you right now, is in no way, in no way, my actual real thoughts, because what I have to say is far more biting and accusatory and blatant and brutal and sometimes cruel and absolutely verboten in the world of social media platform.
As you know, we are demonetized.
And demonized, but not demoralized.
Here's the irony.
Monetized videos and live superchats regaling the glory of mafia hit squads and executions and drug use and scabrous and gratuitous filth.
Even sites that call into question basic decency that would most certainly prove injurious to children and society as a whole.
No problem.
But no.
No, we are different.
And the reason why, to remind you of this, is very simply this.
That we have content that focuses on controversial issues.
I swear to God.
And that are harmful.
Now, we want to thank everybody for contributing and using the various means of support and the like.
Because we need you to keep going.
This is it.
I would do this 24 hours a day if I could.
If I could.
And I do it.
But we thank you.
If you avail yourself of PayPal, Cash App, Venmo, Patreon, Bitcoin, crypto, even Filipino Krugerrands, banknotes checks, drafts, travelers checks, Filipino Krugerrands, it doesn't even matter.
All of that is contained therein.
And we thank you for your support.
A lot of us are in that position right now.
And it's a very, very strange badge of honor.
Now, next.
There was a wonderful group of people that I was reading this morning.
It's called Global Research.
And it's the most wonderful, the most incredible issue about ESGs, about ESG, the Great Reset, sustainability, all of this stuff that we normally hear up to and including the banning.
The banning of nitrogen because of climate change and global warming and all this other kind of stuff.
But nitrogen to ban it from fertilizers.
Fertilizers are nitrogen.
So what's going to happen is we're going to have contraction of crops, we're going to have contraction of food availability, and eventually famine!
Because we're banning.
That's like banning water.
Do you see what's going on?
Does this make sense to you?
They're banning...
Things that produce by virtue of photosynthesis and all kinds of wonderful oxygen, they want to ban this because of nitrogen causation regarding global warming.
I mean, if you...
I don't...
I hope it's not controversial.
I hope it's not too controversial, but it's true.
And that's why it's critical that you, right now, go to preparewithlionel.com and get your three-month emergency food kit right now, because I am telling you...

Now, my friends, cheers to you.
Mrs. Alden and I have been watching and absolutely loving the coverage regarding the Queen and seeing so many attendant aspects of it, which I find so beautiful.
First of all, I don't believe the Queen is actually in the casket itself.
I don't believe I would...
A rule against that for a variety of reasons.
A variety of reasons.
I don't know any reason why you have to do this.
For safety, for, you know, maybe health.
I mean, why would you necessarily want to do that?
I'm just saying.
Why would you want to do this?
I don't understand this.
It doesn't make any sense to me.
I'm just saying.
And the question that I have, and most people have, is, what is a catafalque?
And please use it in a sentence.
What is a catafalque?
C-A-T-A-F-A-L-Q-U-E.
This morning, we were watching, and it's my daily horror, to see nine-year-old, seven-year-old children, people of all, all races, Speaking an eloquent English, it makes my heart cry.
Cry!
Cry!
They speak beautifully.
Now, not everybody in the UK speaks.
I understand that.
There are people, there are accents, there are folks, there are cockneys.
There are some, I think my favorite peoples from Newcastle, Geordies, speak a particular patois that's very difficult to understand.
I have friends of mine who are Irish.
I don't know what they're saying.
Never understood a word that they're saying.
So, not everybody there enjoys this.
Okay?
I understand this.
But, it's wonderful.
To see the pump.
To see the heraldry.
It's beautiful.
Now, in this country, we love to say, I can't believe what's going on.
Who cares about that for crying out loud?
I have people I know who, I think this is great, great entertainment to brag about how they don't care about yet another thing.
They're proudest of what they don't care about.
I don't care about them.
I don't care.
I don't care.
I'm so proud.
I tell you, I don't care about this.
I don't care about that.
I know nothing about this.
I don't watch this.
I don't know who this person is.
I don't know this song.
I don't know what you're talking about.
I don't know that big word.
I don't know that type of food.
I'm proud.
I revel in that which I don't know.
Dear God.
A couple of things I noticed.
First, 20, was it 26 hours?
26 hours?
Overnight?
To just pay their respect?
What was that again?
Respect?
What's respect?
Ah!
What's respect?
Respect for a government?
Wait a minute, what?
America's like, what?
Respect for government?
Why would you respect the government?
Ah!
Hard to believe, isn't it?
I know.
But the government's not...
Somebody in office?
I don't know.
Isn't that interesting?
Isn't it?
We don't understand it.
So I saw that.
Next, nobody's wearing a mask.
Ah, there might be one.
Not here.
Yesterday I was in one of my...
Well, this is another...
One of our favorite dollar-style stores.
Have you been to one lately?
How many are there?
Dollar Tree, Dollar...
Oh, there's...
But there's Dollar...
What is it?
Dollar Store, Dollar Tree, Dollar...
Dollar General, Dollar...
99 cents.
By the way, they're not a dollar anymore.
It's a dollar a quarter.
We're fine.
Okay.
And to see this is just wow.
Because it is...
You must.
First of all, you get great stuff.
If you want to buy things like ribbons and Halloween stuff, it's great.
Kids love it.
It's a great, great, great place.
Very American.
The food stuff is interesting.
You can buy food.
Vienna sausages.
It is so interesting to go through the line or walk around and see this.
People who are morbidly obese, people Some covered in tattoos, some not.
But at least a tattoo somewhere.
There's always this tribal herd market.
This tattooing, branding.
You're a fine girl.
Anyway.
And I see people who health looks like the last, the last, the last thing they would ever consider, ever worry about is health.
Mental, physical, somatic, anything.
They just do not look like health is anything they care about.
Yet, the number of masks, disproportionate.
One case, a double mask.
A double mask.
Walking around, tattooed with, I'll bet you anything, there's a pack of Salem somewhere, or some, who knows.
Fascinating!
Fascinating!
Now, next topic.
Yesterday I talked to a friend of mine, and I was on a radio station.
I don't want to go into detail, but we were on by an hour and a quarter.
And it was a lot of fun.
It was a different radio station.
Big city, big city.
I just figured, hell with that.
I'm going to say what I want.
I'm going to talk about things that I want.
I'm going to mention things that I want.
That I care about.
And I found out, I found out that the folks, how do I say this?
The people who were listening, listeners, were calling up repeatedly, repeatedly, Repeatedly saying, who is this?
This is the phone, not on the air, but this is great.
I don't know anything about this.
And I just let it rip.
ID2020, Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, ESG program, Klaus Schwab, the stuff that we just take for granted, that we talk about all the time.
Sustainability, a little bit about A lot of other stuff, too.
They had no earthly ideas.
None!
They were saying, this is great!
Why don't I hear this?
This is great!
And the reason is that you realize this and recognize this.
American talk radio died with Rush Limbaugh.
Died.
It doesn't exist anymore.
It's this Rehash and recycled something that I don't even know what they're talking about.
Well, they're frozen on the Martha's Vineyard story.
That's it.
They're frozen.
This is the greatest...
This is the greatest...
Well, this is what the right is saying.
You know, Fox News and others.
They think this is a...
Boy, we've got them.
We're going to win this election.
Why?
Well, because of the hypocrisy.
The hypocrisy that is being obviously revealed.
The hypocrisy that obviously people will...
We'll recognize the hypocrisy.
Don't you understand this?
You see, these people at Martha's Vineyard said they welcomed all this, and then when we brought these Venezuelans, just 50 or so, they went crazy.
You see, Ron DeSantis is the genius, and everybody else is, the hypocrisy of the left has been illuminated and exposed, and we're going to win.
They think this.
They think this.
What does it mean?
Nothing.
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
No, no, you don't understand.
Yes, I understand what Ron DeSantis did.
Yes, I understand that.
And Drudge is trying to, you notice what even Drudge, watch Drudge.
Why?
Drudge is the enemy.
Drudge is the enemy.
See what it focuses.
There is no matter.
Matt Drudge is probably...
He could be lobotomized and sent to a different country.
I have no idea.
Nobody's ever seen him.
We don't know if it's alive.
They've just taken this thing over.
I don't know if he sold it, who bought it, whatever it is.
But it is the directory to see where you go next.
To see where...
The left is going.
All the negative...
Just don't spend a lot of time.
Just read very quickly.
It's a very interesting kind of a road map as to where they're thinking.
But the thing that they're talking about most of all is that Ron DeSantis and Gavin Newsom.
Now, I'm telling you it's going to be Gavin Newsom for sure.
But they're already making it.
They're not even talking about Trump because they don't want Trump.
Let me say this.
Again.
And let me tell you how to read this.
Everybody ready?
Let me explain this to you.
If they cared about Trump, if they cared about him running and winning, if they were afraid of this, they would do exactly what they're doing now.
Exactly what they're doing now.
You got it?
They would do exactly what they are doing now.
But they don't want him to run, and they don't want him to win.
That's why they're saying it's DeSantis.
It's DeSantis.
He's the guy.
Now why is the left, and I'm going to use these terms, please forgive me, just for purposes of shorthand, but why is the left so hell-bent on DeSantis?
Because they want DeSantis.
DeSantis is perfect.
Think about that.
What does that tell you?
They're throwing everything they have at Trump.
Everything.
They're rehashing, recycling, resubmitting, revisiting, regurgitating this same over and over and over.
Why do you think that is?
Why do you think that is?
Tell me.
Why?
Because they're afraid.
Or as they are, as we say in the kitchen here in Hell's Kitchen, they're scared.
You know it, and I know it.
There's nothing that freaks them out more.
They're doing everything.
It's a full court press.
They're going after everything Trump.
Mar-a-Lago, J6, indicting them maybe if they can do it.
Some kind of weird 14th Amendment prohibition.
They're going to try that.
They're going to go after Mike Lindell.
Mike Lindell!
Mike Lindell!
This beautiful man, the pillow guy.
Not one person from the Epstein crew.
Not one of them.
Not one of the clients.
Not one.
Nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody grabbed.
Go down the list.
Hey, Prince Andrew, come here.
There's no warrant out.
Come here, you.
Give me your phone.
This guy walked away from everything.
They paid off a little.
And don't kid yourself.
A lot of the victims, which is their right, said, that's okay.
I'll take the money.
Don't worry about it.
They're doing everything.
So do what I'm saying.
Look and just go down the list and see every new allegation.
They're desperate.
What does that tell you?
They don't want him.
What better endorsement is it?
Vote for Trump.
They don't want him.
Now Trump, as you know, is replete.
He has no particular problems.
He's not perfect.
But they don't want him.
Dear God.
The Republican Party doesn't know him.
Oh my God.
Can you imagine?
This guy runs again.
Trump's so PO'd, especially the Republicans, the ones who turn their back on him.
Oh, they're done.
He will go in.
He will redo everything.
So keep that one in mind.
Next, let me tell you a little story about something.
This is important.
And this I can't tell you enough.
I want to ask you a question.
What is today?
What is today?
Anybody?
What is today?
Shall we?
Anybody?
Anybody?
Anybody know what today is?
Any good Americans?
Anybody?
Anybody?
Let me see if anybody knows this.
Oh, wait.
It's a very special day.
We're not talking about it.
You're not going to be hearing this on CNN or MSNB.
Constitution Day.
Thank you.
Today is Constitution Day.
1787.
That is what makes us who we are.
And if you get to the chance, if you get to the chance, if you go to Philadelphia, please, a couple of things, tomato pie is also very nice.
The Constitution Center, though they kind of get a little, a little...
Kind of lefty-ish, but that's okay.
Better something.
Please go and pay homage to the grave of Tench Cox, which I want to see.
Today is Constitution Day.
Now, a couple of things.
We have some friends.
I know you have friends.
One particular friend say, you know what, I...
I...
Love this British ceremony and pageantry.
I said, really?
Yes.
Why?
Well, I'm an Anglophile.
Oh, that's nice.
That's nice.
I'm an Anglophile.
Really?
Oh, that's very good.
And this person said, yes, yes.
And I'm also, by the way, I tend to be a more European.
Really?
You're more European?
Yes.
I see.
But you're born here, right in this country?
Yeah, I'm born here.
But I'm more European.
You know, the British.
Really?
Really?
Which of the countries are you?
There's 44 countries that are roughly European.
Which of the 44?
Are you Belarusian?
Ukrainian?
No, no.
When they say European, they think, no, I'm, you know, Italian.
French or British.
No, no.
Excuse me.
You don't know what Europe is.
What European means.
Remember years ago when African American became a distinction and I'd ask people, really African?
What country?
African?
No, that's a continent.
Which of the 54 countries are you?
54. Which one are you?
I never thought about that.
Well, you know, the Mediterranean diet.
Really?
Well, yes, you know, I follow the Mediterranean diet.
Really?
You know, olive oil.
Oh, olive oil.
Oh, I see.
I see.
Wine.
Oh, I see.
And which of the 22 or 24, I forget.
I think it's 22. Which of the bordering countries of the Mediterranean are you?
Lebanese?
I mean, what are you talking about?
See, we don't know anything.
Let me say something right now.
And I want to be as clear as I, as my friend says, I'm going to be as honest as I possibly can be.
I, and I mean this with all due respect, am an American.
I'm not European.
I have no hyphen.
Where my relatives are from, it doesn't matter.
I don't care.
That's nice.
That's nice.
Gotta be from someplace.
This is my Bible.
This is it.
My Constitution.
Father, every time I vote in the back, I put it with little stickers.
This is my Bible.
I am an American.
This is my rule book.
If you went to France, Italy, Italy.
And you said, what are the rules to be, I want to be an Italian.
What do I have to do?
But I got to wear it.
If you want to go to Europe, you got to wear those funky trainers.
You can always tell people.
I can always tell.
I can always tell, especially the UK, by their tennis shoes, and I can always tell by the way they hold their knife and fork, first of all.
You don't even have to hear a word they say.
You kind of look out, mm-hmm, yep, yep.
You always tell certain things.
But what are the rules?
Well, there are no rules.
This is our rule.
To be an American.
This is it.
It's a rule book.
This is it.
This is our government.
And this thing we have right now, I don't know who these people are.
Because this has been subverted.
They took this and they're, I mean, they're, I don't know.
There's nobody enforcing this.
Apparently, it's just there.
But this is what I am.
And I am an American.
And I'm proud to be an American.
Not that corny, corn-pone Lee Greenwood business.
Or at least I know I'm free.
Free?
I don't know if I'm free.
I mean, I'm not locked up yet, but I don't think I'm free.
But it'll do.
See, this is the thing which is the most important.
I'm an American.
And by the way, I respect the Brits and the Here's to you.
Long live the king.
Good for you.
That is your country, and I have nothing but respect for you as a people, okay?
But I am an American.
You got that?
And it's all I know.
And maybe if I had the choice, maybe.
I don't know.
But I'm here.
And if I have the choice to visit someplace, guess where I want to visit?
Here.
I'm kind of corn-poned about that.
I want to go to places I've never seen before.
So if you want to run off to Milan, that's beautiful.
Say hello to Lino, my friend.
But do not confuse that with me.
I'd rather go first.
I haven't been to New Mexico yet.
I want to check that out first.
There's parts of this country I don't know anything about.
Now, I'm not a xenophobe or anything like that, but I'm a proud American.
I'm a proud American.
That's it.
And not the government.
And not my history.
And speaking of history, let me explain to you something.
And this might be the most important thing I can tell you.
And the most important thing for you to grasp, I suggest.
But first, Let me stop right now.
Because I mentioned to you that man, Mike Lindell.
Now think about this.
I just got to tell you this.
Name all of the folks in the Epstein Black Book.
All of the people in the hidden videos and pictures and recordings, because those were sound studios.
All of the suspects, hundreds of girls over years and years and years, all over the world, islands in New Mexico and New York and Palm Beach and Florida and all of the known predators and people, defendants.
And they arrest or serve a subpoena on Mike Lindell?
Where are all the recordings from the Epstein people?
Where are they?
You've got to be kidding me!
Mike Lindell?
Well, here's what you're going to do.
You want to show your support?
Good.

No, you don't need the phone.
It's like when they, in the old days, when they would do a wire tap on a phone, they didn't take the Bakelite phone.
They would record what was said on the phone.
They didn't come into your house and take Grandma's big, heavy, remember those big phones?
They didn't take the phone.
They're doing this as intimidation.
They're telling...
Everybody, oh yeah, get ready.

Okay.
Let's get to where we're going right now.
F. Scott Fitzgerald says something to the effect of, and I'm going to see if I can paraphrase, that the sign of a superior mind is someone, someone who can handle two seemingly inconsistent theories or observations or ideas and not Lose focus.
Be able to handle...
You know what?
I'm doing such a terrible job.
Let me see.
F. Scott.
See what I'm doing now?
F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Superior mind.
See what I'm doing now?
This is called research.
Ah!
Here he is.
The ability to hold two competing thoughts in one's mind and still be able to function is the mark of a superior mind.
The ability to hold two competing thoughts in one's mind and still be able to function is the mark of a superior mind.
The inability to recall the quote is another story.
Now, listen to me and listen to me carefully.
The Queen.
You can respect the great people of Great Britain.
You can respect the monarchy or not.
It's up to you.
You can respect what she has done, but she was not always a nice person, whatever that means.
You want to see some Queen stuff you don't like?
Look what they did to Diana.
Oh, dear God.
That's the most horrible story of them all.
That was a joke.
And look at Charles.
Look what he did.
He never wanted to marry her.
Look what they did.
What was that about?
What was that about?
And look what they did to Charles.
Look what Philip did to Charles.
They slept.
Charles was, I mean, I feel sorry.
Charles looked like a, just like a judge rule from the beginning.
He never, ever was allowed to be Charles.
And he loved Camilla, whatever it's worth.
And basically they told her, you're not going to do this.
After Wallace Simpson?
Oh no, no, no.
And they told her, okay.
So what did Camilla do?
She got married.
Had some kids.
They still carried on.
And they plucked Diana.
Diana was a kid.
They abandoned her.
Abandoned her, what they did to her.
Now Diana was also a lunatic.
Other than that...
Is she perfect?
No.
Is the queen perfect?
No.
So what?
It's not one or the other.
William Howard Taft was...
Oh, by the way, interesting story about William Howard Taft.
You know that Taft had a lower BMI than Chris Christie?
Taft was taller.
They looked at his weight, how much he weighed, how tall he was.
He has a lower body mass index than Chris Christie.
But I digress.
That's the human part of this.
And Harry?
This guy is whacked.
He is whacked.
Being basically, I mean, just tamed, owned by this Meghan Markle.
Oh, this is fantastic stuff.
And you know who's the real killer in this?
Cold-blooded, look you right in the eye, smile.
It's Kate.
Oh, man.
And Wills are close second.
They are so serious.
Wills can taste it.
And Charles is walking around and he says, look, I've been...
And they had to give him the...
There was no chance they were going to pass him over.
He has to do his thing.
But he's 73 or 74, whatever the hell he is.
Eh, a few years.
Watch what happens.
And if you think...
This is some titular ceremonial do-nothing group.
You don't know anything about how it works.
Nothing.
It is the most fascinating thing in terms of complexity, in terms of how it works.
But nobody's talking about that here.
Why?
Because, well, we have, we're talking about the Martha's Vineyards.
Why?
Because we have idiots on our TV.
We have idiots.
We don't talk about it.
We hate complexity.
We don't even understand our own country.
We don't understand this.
We don't get it.
And you don't have to get it, but we love to say, oh, I don't care about that.
I don't care about that.
I am fascinated by it.
I love the pageantry.
I love the clothing.
As a historian, or an historian, I love it.
Just like I can watch a dog show.
Why?
Because I'm interested in things.
I am an absorbent, I'm a flobie.
Not a flobie, what else?
A chamois.
I'm an absorbent cloth.
I love it.
It's fascinating.
Fascinating.
This is going on right now.
This is the most singular event on the planet right now.
Same way I'm fascinated by the World Cup.
I don't care about soccer per se, but when the entire world is involved in something, it's fascinating to me.
The same way I'm fascinated by Formula One and NASCAR.
The same way I can watch a documentary on Garage sales and flea markets and county fairs and anything.
It's all interesting to me.
Let me try if I can explain this to you.
Let me try again.
It's interesting.
As you know, I have a private channel where I go into a lot of stuff.
A lot of stuff that, well, frankly, you know.
I don't know if you're going to want it, but it doesn't.
I don't know what to tell you.
In any event, it doesn't.
Anyway, so I just did something this morning, and it was a wonderful piece I did, a wonderful piece, and I reminded folks, and I have different references, different songs, different music, and one was a wonderful, wonderful explanation on relativity, special and general.
Gravity versus acceleration and speed and all that kind of stuff.
Okay.
It is so interesting it's not even funny.
Listen to me and listen good.
For some reason, we get to a certain point in this country, you know where they say, the brain stops growing at 25. Well, or stops developing.
Yeah, but knowledge shouldn't.
How many people...
After they've graduated from college or high school, it doesn't matter, whatever it is, or graduate school, how many people say, that's it?
How many people say, I'm going to finally learn how to play the accordion.
I'm going to learn how to speak French.
I'm going to take a class on such and such.
I'm going to read The entire works of Shakespeare.
I'm going to do something.
Nobody.
Nobody.
Why?
We're anti-intellectual.
We don't think anymore.
We're done.
Finished.
Done.
Not interested.
Not boring.
Boring.
Not interested.
I'll read the paper, whatever it is.
Yeah, but aren't you fascinated?
No.
Right now, there are so many things that are so interesting.
I want you to think about this.
And I can tell.
I just look around.
I just look at people.
I'm saying, they're not even interested in what's going on with the Queen.
Look what's going on.
This is human behavior.
Look at the pageantry.
Look at the pump.
Look at the heraldry.
Look at the customs.
Look at what you're doing.
Look what we do.
We are human beings.
What do we do?
We do things like this.
We sing Happy Birthday.
If you go to a restaurant.
They sing happy birthday.
Go to a wedding.
But what we do is we sit back and we say, ah, it's okay.
No, no, no.
I don't care about that.
Or we say everything's a distraction.
That's the thing.
It's a distraction.
What?
I don't know what I mean.
I just say that.
What do you mean it's a distraction?
Well, it's a distraction.
It's to distract us from whatever it is.
I think you're a distraction.
I think you saying it's a distraction is a distraction.
That's what I think.
What are you doing?
I think you're a distraction.
I think you're saying the same thing.
You're saying the same thing.
Now is the time for this.
We are the most, if you looked at us, we are the most incurious people you have ever met in your life.
I swear to God.
Every other part of the world.
What do they do with older people in retirement homes?
They give them things to do.
They give them puzzles.
They try to, you know, do something to encourage or to jumpstart their imagination.
Something.
Not us.
Kids.
Puzzles.
Used to have that.
Playing.
Imagination.
Not anymore.
Once we graduate, we're done.
We're finished.
We're through.
We sit back and we just...
I want to watch Fox News!
I want to watch it.
Hey, there's more on the Martha's Vineyard.
What's wrong with this?
Dad, that's the mouse.
The mouse.
Okay.
There we go.
Oh, I love this.
Oh, yeah.
Look at that.
It's Martha's Vineyard.
See?
See what they did?
Dad, you've been watching this 25...
I know.
Why are you watching this?
Because that's what they want me to watch.
Are you truly that interested by this?
No.
Why are you watching it?
Because that's what I do.
I sit in the TV and I watch whatever they throw at me.
That's it.
I don't ever go...
Dad, do you ever research anything?
No.
Why not?
I don't research.
I don't look things up.
You've got the internet here.
Whatever.
Never ceases to amaze me.
It never seems to me.
I swear to God, everything around me, something, I don't know when it is, everything is fascinating.
You should see me at this dollar store place.
I was sitting there.
I just could not believe the humanity.
Look at what was going on.
Everything interests me, especially when humans get together in groups.
Everybody gets together in groups.
And this is the biggest assemblage of anything going on.
And by the way, compare and contrast BBC with ours.
Compare and contrast the way the BBC handles it, their presenters, with us.
Listen to the accents.
But you know what?
No.
In my country, we say, well, we're just, you know, we're just, I don't know what to tell you.
I don't know what to tell you.
But I love it.
And I'm going to let you run on a secret, and I swear to you, I'm going to say this, and I don't take great pleasure in saying this.
But I want everything to completely collapse.
I want to have a big I told you so.
When I lie in state, I want to have I told you so.
I told you.
I told you.
I was right about that.
I know.
I know.
No, no, you said I was...
I know, I know.
You said I was crazy.
It's true.
That's true.
And that's true.
And you knew it too.
But you didn't have the guts to say, you know what?
He's right.
Oh, no, no, no.
I'm not gonna...
I'm not gonna...
I'm not gonna rock the boat with this one.
No, no way.
Uh-uh.
No siree.
You know this is going to completely, you know this is not going to end well.
You know this, right?
You know this.
Remember the show Intervention on A&E?
I used to love that show.
And not why you think.
Why?
Human behavior.
Human behavior that's pathological.
But they would always say, you know what?
If we don't have an intervention, this is not going to end well.
You know that they always have that music.
America needs an intervention.
We need to get somebody.
We need to have, like, I don't know, Uncle Sam or somebody, whoever is the addicted person, shows up to some weird office, like, where are we going?
Oh, I don't know.
We're just going to stop.
I'm driving here.
Well, Okay.
And then you walk in and you hear that music.
He goes, Hello, John.
Hello, Uncle Sam.
Yes.
My name is Ray.
Ray Teitelboro.
I'm an interventionist.
We're here to tell you we love you.
We all have something to say to you.
Would you sit down, please?
Hey, you guys double-crossed me.
Please, Uncle Sam, sit down.
Gustav, do you want to go first?
Yes, I do.
Uncle Sam, what happened to you?
We love you.
You told us that you would be adhering to the rules of the Constitution, but you didn't.
You allowed yourself to fall under the spell of these people, these anarchic, nihilistic, whatever they are.
And we want you back.
We want you back.
Would you please do us a favor?
Would you please go to rehab?
We need a rehab.
We need to get Uncle Sam.
We need to get the country in some kind of a 12-step course or some long-term care because I don't recognize this place.
I mean, I really don't recognize it.
I don't know what happened.
I don't know what happened to us.
I don't recognize.
You know, when you read this, do you ever have somebody say, I don't like?
I used to kind of like us.
I don't really like us anymore.
And it's sad.
Because I'm seeing more and more people like...
Do you not care what's going on here?
Not really.
Do you not see what's...
All you have to do is just care.
You don't have to do a lot.
I mean, do people...
I heard something the other day.
There was a...
I'm not going to mention his name, but it's a name of somebody you would recognize.
And he has a book or something about how Trump is going to win, and okay, fine.
And I asked the question, I said, how is it that we, or anybody for that matter, can guarantee anything, unless and until we sort of figure out how to guarantee that elections are always okay?
Because, remember, Hillary Clinton said, that was a bad election.
You know, the Russians were.
Okay.
Nobody told Hillary Clinton to shut up.
Hillary Clinton said, I think this was Russian collusion.
Okay.
Hillary Clinton was never shut up.
Her lawyers were never disbarred.
No!
Go ahead and say whatever you want.
Challenge away.
Stacey Abrams, same thing.
Same thing.
A lot of people during the During times, believe it or not, when Nixon was wondering about whether he should be challenging the race against Kennedy.
Kennedy ran by...
Put it this way.
Do you know that Kennedy's margin was equivalent to one extra vote in every precinct in the country?
For me, it was really close.
And there was a question about Sam Giancana and the mob.
Did anybody tell Kennedy that?
Nope.
How did we get to the point where we can't question anything?
How did we get to that point?
How?
What happened?
I don't understand this.
How did we let proxies come in?
How did we let Twitter Well, you can't say that.
There was something the other day that was an interesting story about 5G.
People bathed in 5G.
5G, 6G.
Twitter said, we're not going to let you post that.
Why?
Well, we don't like this story.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Are you editing what I'm saying?
Yes.
Okay.
Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act says that you are not to be construed as a publisher.
Meaning that you can enjoy immunity from liability because you are not a publisher.
You have no ability or you don't exercise any type of restraint or limitation or editorializing in terms of what's going on.
But you're constantly cutting off what I'm saying.
So here's what we're going to do.
We're going to immediately repeal Section 230, and you can have it your way.
You can go ahead and you can limit what we say.
If you don't like this view, or that view, or this is misinformation, or this is this, however you justify it, it doesn't matter.
You can do that.
After all, it's your company.
However, you will not have Section 230 immunization, so to speak, your own vaccine, your own...
Your own immunity.
Your own from lawsuits for defamation and the like.
That's the way it's going to be.
Now, if I went to, I don't know, some forefather of ours.
I mentioned this to Madison or anybody and I said, this is what we're going to do.
Well, did you tell him?
Oh yeah, we told.
We told people like, you know, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Marsha Blackburn, John Kennedy, Josh...
What's his name?
Josh Hawley.
We told them.
What'd they do?
Nothing.
What do you mean nothing?
They didn't do anything.
Did you tell them?
Yes, we told them that we want this repealed or do something.
Nobody did.
What did they do instead?
Well, they brought, you know, Mark Zuckerberg.
They marched him in front of...
Anything happen with that?
No.
No, not really.
Nothing happened?
No.
No.
Nothing.
Well, how do you expect things to change?
I don't know.
And you ever talk about...
Well, we don't bring it up again because, you see, we forget after three days.
We don't talk about things.
Remember Shinzo Abe?
Remember that?
The ex...
Prime Minister or President, whatever, Japanese leader.
Assassinated?
Yeah.
Anybody follow up on that one?
No.
There's always something interesting regarding any head of state or ex-head of state who's assassinated.
Never brought up.
What about Salman Rushdie?
Oh yeah, that's right.
Huh.
He never talked about him again.
Brittany Griner?
That's right!
Yeah!
Yeah, it was right.
We forgot about that, didn't we?
Yeah.
So, I don't understand.
And what happened about Elon Musk?
Was he buying Twitter?
He was buying Twitter.
And then he...
Is he still going to buy it?
I don't think so.
Or maybe.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Is there any reason why an ex-president of the United States is not on Twitter?
They don't like him?
We're just learned helplessness.
I don't understand this.
I don't understand.
I don't understand any of it.
And I'm sure there's a good reason.
I'm sure there's a good reason.
And I'm sure our very, very, our best, and I know there's a reason.
And it's not just distraction.
Distraction only goes so far.
That's a nice way of saying it, but it's a little bit more complicated than just merely distracting us.
Because it's not even distraction.
It's like there's this torpor, this ennui.
We don't say anything.
We just sit back.
And we just like to watch some videos of people kind of saying the same thing, or we have memes, or whatever it is.
So, and what I'm saying, whether it's left, whether it's right, I don't care what it is.
Everybody has a right to complain.
Everybody has a right to say anything you want, no matter what it is.
I don't want to limit anybody in saying anything.
There's responsibility for what you say, but to limit it?
Just to say, you can't say anything.
Why?
We don't like you.
Would you like to see what I'm going to say first?
Nope.
Not interested.
Sorry.
Go away.
What did you think this was?
Free?
Okay, leave it at that.
Now, my friends, I want you very, very much to go and to learn.
