Do you have any idea of what you're talking about?
Let me just ask this question.
Do you...
Have any idea of what you're talking about?
If you don't, don't talk about it.
There's no law.
Nobody will put you in prison.
But you shouldn't be talking about things you really don't know anything about.
In fact, repeat after me.
I don't know anything about this.
Now today there's a subject matter involving 2.75 $2.75 trillion, T, that is being sought in a new series of lawsuits involving the Sandy Hook families against Alex Jones.
$2.75 trillion.
Now, I don't know what the purpose of that is.
I don't know how that's going to advance the cause of whatever the particular cause is.
Yes, I understand the immediate cause, of course, is compensation by the family.
But I'm hearing people, left and right, who are opining about this, who have literally and actually and truly no earthly idea of what they are talking about.
They don't know anything about the case.
They don't know anything about the allegations.
There are people, ex-judges, talking about the Alex Jones case as though it is an attack against opinion.
That it's opinion.
It's like, that's not...
necessarily what this is about.
That argument is for other libel cases.
If you don't know what you're talking about, don't talk about it.
The number of people that we meet every single day who are phonies.
Here's my newest spate.
This is my newest group.
You may not run into this, but I do.
Phony Catholics.
Let me explain something to you.
People say, well, I'm a Catholic.
Okay.
Whenever you hear this, that means I was baptized Catholic.
I did my first communion.
Maybe married in the Catholic Church.
Baptism.
Oh, maybe confirmed.
Baptism, confirmation.
First communion, Eucharist.
Maybe married.
Not...
Not death yet.
I hope you're not talking to a dead person.
Extreme unction.
I don't think the other sacraments of the priesthood.
So that's what they do.
They went to Catholic school.
They wore uniforms.
They went to saint.
Whatever it is.
And they're Catholics.
And that's what they will tell you.
I'm a Catholic.
You don't understand.
I'm a Catholic.
Do you go to church on Sunday?
No.
Do you honor the holy days of obligation?
No.
Are you against it?
Death penalty?
No.
That's what the Pope said.
The Holy See, the papal, the vicar, no.
And then they will talk about various things involving my favorite, not favorite, but it's the subject matter that everybody's talking about, Roe.
Roe v.
Wade and the like.
And they will say, well, as a Catholic, I'm pro-choice.
Do you believe a woman should go to prison if she receives an abortion?
No.
You're pro-choice.
Next.
That's the end of it.
That's the end of it.
That's it.
If you don't believe a woman should go to prison who has an abortion, then you want to ban abortion.
What does pro-life mean?
I want to ban abortion.
I want to ban it.
It's what they tell you this.
I'm a Catholic.
I'm a Catholic.
Do you think Bergoglio is in favor of women going to prison?
Well, no.
Then you're pro-joys.
I'm anti-murder.
I think people should go to prison who commit murder.
And then we get to find what a murder is.
It's self-assisted.
This is what I'm meeting all the time now.
It's like, you're a kino, a Catholic, a name only.
What does this mean?
What does this mean?
They love to say who they are.
It's almost like...
Cultural appropriation.
Look, I'm not going to tell somebody what they are, whether you're a Christian, whether you're not, what degree of Christian you are, and I can't speak to any other faith because, I'm sorry, I was not raised around that.
This one I know.
I've studied this one, and I know what I'm talking about.
They're cafeteria Catholics, universal Catholics.
There are these people, they're just, they went to Catholic school.
They can't even define what a Catholic is.
They can't tell you.
Okay, he's a...
Jerry, what are you?
Well, I'm a Protestant.
Okay, I'm a Baptist.
Okay.
I'm a Catholic.
What does Jerry not have that you have?
Or what do you have that he doesn't have?
What is a Catholic versus this?
Explain to me the definitional aspects of a Catholic.
Other than being taking instructions or whatever it is.
What does it mean?
They can't tell you.
They can't tell you.
What does it mean to be an American?
What does it mean to be an American?
What does this mean?
I don't know.
They don't know.
I was born here.
Okay, we're not going to get into that natural born business.
Okay, fine.
Okay, this one is he took the citizenship.
He's an American.
He's a citizen.
Okay, what did he do that a non-citizen did?
And we can get into that argument too.
Swore to uphold the what?
What was that again?
The Constitution.
The Constitution.
That is it.
It's Our instructional manual.
People don't realize that.
I meet people all the time who are phony.
Phony Republicans.
Phony conservatives.
Phony Democrats.
Phony everything.
They wear it like a badge.
Look at me.
And I...
We're going to get to this in a moment.
And I was shocked.
Absolutely gobsmacked.
Knocked on my...
I called a...
Three friends of mine.
In 1973, I was watching the Academy Awards.
Mrs. L., she's substantially younger than I was, but even through her infancy, she was watching the Academy Awards.
1973.
Marlon Brando wins for the Best Picture.
So what happens?
What do we see?
What do we see?
Sasheen Littlefeather shows up.
She does it.
She says, On behalf of the Indians.
She claims to be an Apache.
Her father was born in Oxnard.
She's Mexican, Spanish, maybe, maybe at best.
She's a pretendian, as they're called.
She's not a Native American!
We find this out now.
They're coming out and saying, what?
What?
I've been going nuts over this.
Wait a minute.
What?
Did Brando know?
I'll bet he did.
Come on.
Or did people just...
I don't know.
She's got to...
She looks like Buffy St. Marie.
Buffy St. Marie is legitimate.
But...
I'm going to talk about this tomorrow.
But I got to...
It's on my mind.
I got to tell you this.
This just gets me.
It drives me crazy.
Don't say who you are and who you're not.
Hilaria Baldwin.
Listen to me.
I'm from Mallorca.
He's a cucumber.
He's a cucumber.
You know, cucumber is where we get gedrul from, from Cidrulli, and all these other, these, these, these bastardizations of the Italian dialects of Cidrulli, and cucumber, and gedrul, and I'm from Mallorca.
No, you're not!
How do you think, were you going to do this accent the whole time?
I still don't understand this.
I still don't understand it.
This is, this is, um, Alec Baldwin's wife.
Yeah.
By the way, Mrs. L asked me, are you sure you're on?
Are you hearing me, by the way?
Are you hearing me?
This is also very good.
If you can hear me, give me a 5x5.
Just...
If you can hear me, would you please type...
Fluxy-nausony-hilly-pillification.
Would you please?
Just to make sure.
Because that was one of the most brilliant introductions.
Don't tell me I lost this.
Can you hear me?
Oh, yes.
Yes, okay.
Five by five.
Good.
Thank God.
Oh, my God.
After that impassioned...
Thank you.
Oh, my God.
Let me calm down.
Oh.
There's nothing worse than...
Are you on?
Which is important to note.
No, no, I'm not in any way trying to minimize the criticality of everything.
Just give me a moment.
We'll talk about this tomorrow, but this is on my mind.
And by the way, I just did a brutal, brutal, brutal piece that will appear on my private channel, where I really go into it.
In 19, well, whatever it was, Warner Oland, Played Charlie Chan.
He's Swedish.
Key Luke, remember number one son?
Key Luke was...
Now, this is before appropriation.
Okay, maybe.
Who remembers 1970-71 Iron Eyes Cody?
Who remembers Iron Eyes Cody?
Who remembers this?
Remember Iron Eyes Cody?
Sicilian.
He was Sicilian.
By the way, I'm really digging these YouTube shorts.
I'm digging this because people are saying, okay, I'll give you 54 seconds.
Really?
Yep.
I'll give you 54 seconds.
Here is my YouTube short, which I will watch this one.
Iron Eyes Cody.
Who remembers the Indian?
Remember that?
America.
It was William Conrad.
Remember that?
Remember Cannon?
Remember Only You Can...
No, that's Forest Fire.
Whatever it was.
It was this...
It was wonderful.
It was this...
Did you see this one?
Did you...
Remember the Indian with a tear?
He played...
He's Sicilian.
His name is...
Whatever.
He's from Louisiana.
Wait a minute.
Remember the group, the only, the only, only, only, only group that I know of.
And by the way, we're going to get to the Sandy Hook, I promise.
But remember the group Redbone.
Come and get your love.
Remember that?
Come and get your love.
Redbone was a Cajun term for mixed race.
The brothers Patrick and Candido Vasquez Vegas.
They were born in California near Fresno.
They moved to L.A. and played for 10 years in clubs.
And then they had...
I don't know if anybody was actually a...
I don't know who was.
There was a big deal about whether who was actually...
Native Americans.
Anyway.
Okay.
Alright.
Who remembers?
Who remembers the great?
One of the greatest ever.
Who remembers the fellow who played No, no.
Let me see.
Oh, God.
Ah!
Vito Scotti.
Vito Scotti played...
He was born in San Francisco.
He played one of the worst...
If ever there was a racial...
There were two Japanese depictions in American current...
What do you want to call it?
Entertainment.
The worst was Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
And then Vito Scotti as the Japanese soldier on Gilligan's Island.
Thick glasses, buck teeth.
Oh my God.
Different times.
Now Vito Scotti at least said, I'm not Japanese.
Mickey Rooney, I'm not Japanese.
I'm not Japanese.
In fact, The, um, yeah, Mr. Yunyoshi.
It was horrible.
Yeah, Mr. Yunyoshi.
Just, just, okay, fine.
But they weren't saying they were this.
See, Iron Eyes Cody was saying, I'm Native American.
Hilaria Baldwin was saying, I'm from Mallorca.
And how long was she supposed to do this Spanish accent?
How long?
Leasing to me.
Listen to me.
I used to do this thing.
We used to do a thing every morning.
Well, not every morning, but it was a morning show on WABC.
It was one of the best morning shows ever.
Before, people said, let's tweak this.
And I was on with a guy named Bruce Anderson.
And one day, I did this thing.
There was something about English should be the official language.
Some...
I don't know what it is.
And I've always said this.
This is the most stupid accent.
What English?
Whose English?
What English?
John Lee Hooker English?
Christopher Hitchens English?
Who?
What?
Reserved...
What?
What?
Okay.
So I called up one day and I said...
Let's do this thing where I pretend to be somebody from this English-only amendment, and I'll call you up on the phone.
And he didn't know what I was going to do.
So he's taking this.
We had this phone call live.
And I always went with the name Pepito Fuente.
So he says, we're talking.
Bruce had this great voice.
We're talking to Mr. Pepito Fuente.
So I called up on the phone.
He said, listen to me.
And if you can't speak English, you have no been to do nothing in here in America.
Okay?
Listen to me.
And if you can't pay anything, you can't make a ride, ride, everything.
To me.
To me I think that the American...
Now, obviously, the joke was the irony, the obvious, because most people I meet have no sense of humor or irony.
You have no idea.
I tell people jokes, they have no idea what I'm talking about.
Because they take things literally.
They can't think beyond this.
They can't think beyond the obvious.
They can't think beyond this.
It was hysterical until some meatball, these deranged radio management, could this be offensive?
Are you listening?
Are you listening?
It's in defense.
Anyway, anyway, anyway.
Nobody gets this whole thing.
Sasheen Littlefeather.
Pretendians.
Do you ever make people say, well, I'm a commandant?
Really?
You're what?
I'm a Catholic.
You're a Catholic?
Sometimes, at least I got a baptismal certificate.
I'm a pretendian.
Well, my father, Choctaw.
What?
You're what?
Well, I just say people who, well, I'm from prior lives.
You know, I was an Indian princess.
And again, with the princess, where were you?
I was a syphilitic leper in the streets of Calcutta.
That's what I was.
What about you?
You have no idea.
Everywhere I go, I meet these phony conservatives.
Phony.
Well, I watch Fox News.
It takes a little bit more than...
What is your...
Define a conservative.
Well, you know, I think it's not...
Well, what about...
I'm a hippie.
What does that mean?
I meet these two.
Well, I'm going to tell you, I'm an old-fashioned hippie.
Hippie?
We have this group of people.
I'm not going to mention their names, but if they're listening, they know who I am.
They think that the Beatles are still in existence, and they meet once a year, and they wear...
The one guy I met, he was an old...
Some of these are serious rockers.
I mean, they really...
In their day, you know, they're great guitar players.
One guy had a wig that was so funny.
He looked like the...
Remember the Mosquitoes in Gilligan's Island?
I think they were the Wellingtons who did the song.
Remember the Mosquitoes?
They had this hair.
Always the fake and phony.
Until Marianne Ginger, whatever they did their own...
The Honeybees.
Remember that?
Anyway, I'm digressing.
But there are these people who believe that they're rockers and hippies and that, hey, and they do this, hey.
I one time went to, remember that thing we went to at a talk radio convention?
We had these numbnuts who thought that Peter, Paul, and Mary were hippies.
Remember that?
No, you got the wrong era.
No, no, no.
That came later.
Everybody wants to be something they're not.
Everybody wants to be something they're not.
Be authentic.
Be you.
That's all I'm saying.
Please.
I can't say it enough.
Whatever you are, you start with who you are.
You get up in the morning and you say, what do I believe in?
Not what club do I fit in best with.
No, no, no, no.
Not what label do I work in.
No.
No.
This is the part that...
I'm glad to tell you something.
This is one of the most important things in the world that I can possibly tell you.
And we'll get to this in a moment.
This is a chance.
I'm your pastor.
This is our Sunday go-to meeting.
Be yourself.
Know thyself.
Be yourself.
I have a friend of mine who fancies herself as being European.
I hear this all the time.
Well, I'm more European.
Well, you know what?
I think maybe if I had to describe myself, I think I'm kind of sensibilities.
And what she means is Paris, Rome, whatever it is.
I said, which of the 44 countries do you best?
Are you Serbia?
Maybe Bulgaria?
Maybe Montenegro?
Luxembourg?
How about Malta?
Moldova?
Liechtenstein?
Poland?
Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Albania?
Lithuania?
How about North Macedonia?
Slovenia?
Romania?
Anybody?
Latvia?
Are you Estonian?
You don't even know what European means?
What?
This is...
Here we go.
While we're on this.
Have you heard of the Mediterranean diet?
Ansel Keys, 1953?
People who believe Mediterranean countries are...
Let me see.
How many?
12?
About 22?
Hang on.
Number...
22. So, there are people who believe that, well, you know, I'm in the Mediterranean diet.
What's that?
Well, you know, nuts, wine, olive oil.
What?
Yeah, the Mediterranean diet.
I'm in the Mediterranean diet.
What?
You know, which of the 22 countries are we talking about?
Hmm?
Which of the 22 Mediterranean countries are we talking about?
Well, we're talking about Italy.
Again, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro.
Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Tunisia, Egypt.
What?
They don't even know what they're...
No!
Ansel Keys never said olive oil.
Ansel Keys never said nuts and red wine.
He never said that.
What?
He never said anything about olive oil.
Where did you get that from?
That's not the Mediterranean diet?
It's not what he said.
That might be a Mediterranean diet now.
And what was the Mediterranean diet based on?
What country was that?
Oh yes, Crete.
And what was special about Crete?
Well, it was an island, and it was taken over by the who?
Oh yes, the Germans.
The group of people that began with the N. Rhymes with Ratsi.
Remember those people?
Yes.
And the reason why?
Why do you think they were starving?
And what else?
They had plants.
They didn't have meat.
Why?
Because the Germans took that.
And they walked a lot, and they exercised a lot.
And that's why they did it.
And by the way, you see the Cretans today?
Cretans, not cretin.
By the way, you know this derivation of cretin?
Cretanism?
It was a bastardization of Christian.
It's a terrible pejorative.
In any event, what about today?
They have no idea!
People are walking around talking to me about the Mediterranean diet and they can't even tell me about it.
They just make this stuff up.
We live in a world of imposters.
I'll get to Alex Jones.
I swear to God.
Just give me a chance.
Please, this is more important.
For the love of God, be yourself.
Figure out who you are and love yourself.
Let me stop for a second.

This is where I get to get really nasty.
Nasty.
I say it like it is.
Drives people nuts.
The one that dropped this morning, listen to this title.
Hollywood represents the rancid, feculent, soaring grease trap of sordid, paraphile wastrels and perv predators and, well, it goes into this beautiful thing about how Hollywood is this grease trap of humanity.
How about this one?
The pathetic White House occupant asks transgender man Barbie Pocket.
Transgender Barbie Pocket.
For Barbie Pocket.
Did you see that one?
Did you see?
Why?
Can you tell me?
Honey, why is Why has Joe Biden involved Barbie Pocket?
Man.
Yeah.
I don't think Joe Biden knows who Barbie Pocket is.
I don't think...
I'm just saying.
I'm just saying.
But listen to this.
That was a butte.
I did one more in detail about Sandy Hook plaintiffs.
We're talking about this.
Now seeking the astronomical amount of $2.75 trillion in addition to the billion dollars already ordered from Alex Jones.
Why are they doing this?
And what's the purpose of that?
Which I'll explain now, I swear to God.
And I just, I don't fit into this.
And I can't talk to anybody without people saying about Alex Jones.
Let me explain this.
Alex Jones comes across now as a big, fat, sweating, drunk, or demented, or crazy, rebellious, boorish, yelling, screaming, evangelical, Elmer Gantry-esque buffoon.
And it's sad.
Because in his day, when he started, when he did documentaries, Alex Jones was superb.
Superb.
There was nothing like him.
I'm going to tell you now.
I'm going to say it.
I was on his show.
Everybody was on his show.
one way it was it it it it it was The toast of YouTube, the toast of everybody made money with him.
And then one day they said, that's it.
That's it.
Because they started to hate him.
And I want you to understand something.
Throughout history, if tomorrow I said, tomorrow we're going to hate tattoos.
Overnight.
You would say, what?
Let me do this.
I would start, I would pull you into the auditorium and say, now watch this.
Beginning today, we're going to be starting something which is brand new.
We're going to do the I hate tattoos movement.
And you're going to say, whoa, whoa, whoa, excuse me.
Yes?
Everybody has a tattoo.
Even better.
Watch this.
They're going to do this.
I'm going to start here.
First, I put out in my choreographed, owned and operated media, stories that said, tattoos are no more.
What?
Story here, story here, story here.
And I'm going to say, well, this story, I'm going to artificially change it, I'm going to make it viral.
What does viral mean?
It means the numbers.
But doesn't viral mean that everybody saw it?
No.
It's the metrics.
I'm going to tell people this is the metrics.
20 million people read this.
20 million?
Yeah.
Here.
50 million.
But they didn't.
So what?
They think they did.
And now, everybody who goes to the trending section is going to jump on that.
Did you hear the thing?
Now, they're out.
They're out.
Tattoos are out.
Then, we're going to have stories of some guy.
Hi, I'm a dermatologist.
Do you want to get rid of tattoos?
Well, some people would disappear because they are one big tattoo.
But, overnight.
Another article.
Men are preferring people without tattoos.
Another article.
People lose job opportunities because of tattoos.
Another article.
Another article.
And then we're going to have Fake TikTok.
And then we're...
The next thing you know, within...
What?
Three days?
Four days?
That's it.
It changes.
And then you're going to see the sleeves covered up.
And then you're going to have clothing.
How to handle...
What do we do about...
Here's makeup.
But I've got this tear.
Well, you're in a gang member.
Well, then there's going to be makeup.
And then...
Overnight.
And then there'll be...
And then there'll be a story about how people have been subjected to Karen-like outrage.
Get you and your tattoos out of here.
And overnight, I change it like that.
That easy.
Overnight.
It's that simple.
Because if there's one thing social media tells us, if there's one thing social media tells us, it's simply this.
We are told what is and isn't hip.
How many...
Maybe you can help me.
How many of you, my dear friends watching now, have seen this ad?
We see it only in the New Jersey.
There's these ads all of a sudden that say these billboards and they are everywhere.
Oh!
It's breast reduction.
These breast reduction ads in Breast Reduction, New Jersey.
I think this is it.
Yes, there's just one.
You know it's just one company?
Breast Reduction Surgery.
Everywhere.
Everywhere.
This is the most.
This is the Most...
It's over...
Honey, they're everywhere.
Have you seen them?
Breast reduction.
But you can't tell.
You can't tell from the billboard if this woman is before the surgery or after the surgery.
I don't know.
They don't tell you.
After, before.
You are told things immediately and you will act accordingly.
Remember when all of a sudden the steatopygian, Kardashian butt surgery blifts overnight?
Why do I say this?
Alex Jones overnight became loathed, derided, hated, despised by a lot of people, but in some respects lifted accordingly.
And that's the risk.
Whenever you make somebody, whenever you target somebody, So what Alex Jones did was he had lawsuits in Texas and Connecticut.
And for reasons, for reasons that have really yet to be defined or addressed and could very seriously and very easily be reversed on appeal, a court rule that he had defaulted.
That by virtue of his not responding to demands and orders for the disclosure of certain financial information, he in essence defaulted.
As though he never filed an answer or whatever it was.
So therefore, therefore, When he went to court,
what you were seeing, and this is important, what you were seeing is the damages portion only.
You see what I'm saying?
What you were hearing was the damages portion.
Not the facts of the case, not what he said, not whether it was an opinion or whether it was based on fact.
No, it was just damages.
It was presumed that whatever the well-planned aspects of the complaint were admitted.
So now what happened was, and this is important, this is critical.
I want you to hear this one.
And this, this, this will blow your mind.
Okay?
Where did this number come from?
Where did this number come from?
Well, let me explain this to you.
It works something like this.
The Sandy Hook families asked a Connecticut judge This is in Bloomberg, by the way, Bloomberg and others, to order Alex Jones to pay $2.75 trillion in damages,
in addition to the almost $1 billion that jury awarded for defamation, etc., etc., etc., claiming, quote, only the highest...
Possible punitive damages will stop the Infowars hosts from continuing to harm them.
Only the largest, this is a quote from them.
Thank you.
Now what happens is, the families say they were entitled to the amount because Jones broke a state law barring the sale of products using false statements.
And I believe this may or may, I don't know, don't quote me on the timing of this, but some have suggested it was after the Jones event.
Kind of ex post facto-ish.
I don't know.
So there was a state law that bars the sale of products using false statements.
Let me stop right there.
Can you imagine if there was a law that barred the sale of something based upon false statements?
I would venture to say most respectfully that 98% of everything would be eliminated because what is and is not a false statement in connection with the sale of a product.
Alright.
They reached the sum by multiplying the state's law $5,000 per violation fine by the $550 million social media exposures that his audience received on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, in the three years following the school shooting in 2012.
Thank you.
$2.75 trillion.
2.75 trillion dollars.
Now, as I have said to you before, and as I'm going to say to you again, and as I'm going to repeat to you again, and this is the most important aspect that is to be taken from this.
And, of course, good luck in trying to get people to understand this, because they hate him.
Now, let me explain something to you.
I will never, I do not make it a point, I do not like it, When lawyers go on TV and they say, well, you know, this lawyer, I would have done this, and I would have said this, and I would have done that, and I would have said, well, you know what, you weren't there.
And it's very, very easy to say these things, and I understand that, and people say this.
But let me tell you something.
Let me give you an example of how to handle this.
By the way, this again is my private channel.
I'm putting a link right there so that you can...
Because you're going to get it in much greater detail.
Can't really talk about it here for reasons that should be readily and obviously obvious.
Steve Bannon did it best.
Steve Bannon said, we thank the judge.
The judge was courteous.
We respect the judge.
We have, obviously, some appeals that we want to pursue, but we thank the judge.
And then Bannon went into this, basically, A political statement, almost a, I don't know what the word is, almost like a campaign statement for midterms, but whatever.
It's up to him.
What Alex did, what other people do is, you know, that kind of thing.
Like, oh yeah, screw you, and I don't understand this.
Maybe ultimately it helps.
Maybe ultimately it helps.
Maybe in the sales.
Maybe it's professional wrestling.
Maybe it's the heel mentality.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know why this is...
But it is, I think, profoundly stupid.
Because what I want people to do is to understand this.
Implicit.
Implicit.
And by the way, please like this video.
Please.
Do I have to say please?
It's critical in order for us to enjoy our getting out of this demonetized, demonized world of second-class citizenry when a young lady unboxing a curling iron gets five million likes.
Listen, God bless her.
But, okay?
Please.

It's important.
Because as you will see, I'm not fitting into a box.
The conservatives do not like me.
The liberals do not like me.
The Trump people don't like me.
Nobody likes me because I'm not.
I don't want to be a member of their group.
I might like something that they're saying, but probably not.
I have a new phrase I know.
Most people are wonderful until you get to know them.
This may bother you, but most people, deep down inside, are very shallow, very uninterested, and very ignorant.
This is true.
And the reason why you think you like people is you don't know people.
The more you know people...
Do you know that Mrs. L and I have to go through decompression?
I'm just going to leave it at that.
I'm going to leave it at that.
And the people that we do like?
There are people that we do like that are absolutely almost pure of spirit.
They are very few.
But they are wonderful.
And they are so authentic.
And they crave authenticity.
And I don't care about their politics or their religion or what they wear or what they look like or where they're from.
I don't care about that.
I love authentic.
But what Alex Jones should be doing is saying to people, this is not about me.
This is not about me.
This is about something else.
Because what people are forgetting right now is that the next level of libel is going to be incitement.
It's not what you said.
It's what other people did in response to what you said.
Let me give you an example.
Let me give you an example.
Are you ready for this?
Okay.
I'm going to try this again.
Work with me on this.
And please, like this.
257 likes is a paucity.
De minimis.
It is negligible.
It's not even worth...
You may have the opinion, you may, that we humans never landed on the moon.
You're entitled to your opinion.
In my opinion.
You're entitled to that.
You, I think you should be able to think it, say it, believe it.
Don't hurt anybody.
You can believe or not believe that Christopher Columbus, you can call it a revision.
He didn't land here.
He landed in the Dominican Republic.
Good for it.
Lee Harvey Oswald didn't.
Tell him that was a CIA.
It's up to you.
It's your opinion.
I respect your opinion.
This is America.
And not only that, please remember this.
Hashtag, so what?
So what?
The other day I heard somebody, I'm not going to mention her name, but she was on saying that Border Border Border, whatever, was Border breaches and border security was the effect of Satan.
Satan.
It was satanic.
I personally think that's the definition of absurd, but that's okay.
This is America.
Think that.
I don't care.
Think it.
Think it.
I know somebody who says, I think I have a glass of wine every day because a little glass of wine.
It's healthy.
No, it's not.
But think it.
It's a free country.
I don't care.
And anybody who tells you you can't say that?
Hashtag so what?
So what?
Think whatever you want.
Think it.
Think it.
Go into a church.
Go into someplace you've never...
Listen to what they're saying.
Listen to what they believe in.
Believe in.
For centuries you're going to go, what?
Say it!
It's your opinion.
It's your belief.
Welcome.
This is America.
Don't go out and clobber somebody who doesn't believe what you believe, but go ahead and say it.
But let's assume one day that you say that you don't believe in We landed on the moon.
Now, I have never ever studied that.
I'm sorry.
I don't know enough about it.
But it's fascinating.
I'd love to hear why.
Tell me why you believe that.
I don't.
There are certain things I just don't.
It's just not my...
There's a lot about Elon Musk I just don't care about.
So, please, I'm not going to opine about Elon Musk if I really don't know.
I know a lot about Catholicism, a lot about Christianity, but I don't know about Islam, I don't know about Judaism, so I don't talk about that.
It's not my subject.
I don't know this.
I don't know about preeclampsia.
I don't know about ADHD.
I don't know these, so I stay away from it.
I stay in my lane.
But let's assume somebody were to say, I think it's crazy, and I think buzz off.
Remember there was one guy who was going up and he was making these...
Astronauts.
He told out a Bible, you swear you landed on the moon.
And Buzz Aldrin nailed this guy.
Just nailed him.
Because frankly, it was a bit threatening, and I think so.
But Buzz Aldrin, being Buzz Aldrin, said, what do you mean I didn't land on the moon?
Pow!
Okay.
Let's assume that this guy says, hey, you're crazy.
Okay.
Is that his opinion?
Well, yeah.
But it's also defamation.
It's also defamation.
Because what you're saying, in essence, is that you're saying, not that this didn't just not happen, but that Buzz Aldrin is a liar.
Ah!
So now it goes from a historical opinion to this.
There's a Trump case going on right now, a supposed rape deposition with E. Jean Carroll.
This is defamation.
She says Trump.
Trump says, I didn't do that.
You're crazy.
Aha!
Defamation.
Wait a minute.
How do I dispute something without saying you're wrong?
But let's go a step further.
Let's say that Buzz Aldrin's family says, you're not going to believe it.
We had to move five times because of this guy who all of a sudden said that Buzz Aldrin and the Aldrin family, I guess, is perpetuating a fraud.
Now it changes.
And that's what you should be focusing on.
The incitement statute.
And also, this is the most important thing.
And I've said this a gazillion times before.
When does incitement take place?
When?
When does the Brandenburg case The Brandenburg case is so important.
This is so critical.
Clarence Brandenburg, in 1969, roughly, he addressed this small gathering of Klan members in a field in Hamilton County, Ohio.
This is the story.
I know.
And during the address, which was recorded, By invited media folks, Brandenburg was bemoaning the fate of the white Caucasian race at the hands of the government.
He made anti-Semitic and anti-black statements and alluded to the possibility of revengeance, criminologism, in the event that the federal government continued to suppress the white Caucasian, a bit redundant anyway.
He also announced that the Klan members were planning to march.
And he was convicted of violating Ohio's, it was called the Criminal Syndicalism Act, which made it a crime to advocate the duty, necessity, or property, propriety rather, of crime, sabotage, or unlawful methods of terrorism as a means of accomplishing industrial or political reform.
Okay.
So he was saying, and we're going to go and we're going to do this!
Okay.
Well, some people were saying that what Alex Jones was doing was Alex Jones was saying, then you're going to go tell any people they're lying to us!
And there's one thing I'm going to tell you, and we can, you can, I hope not be offended by this, but it's true.
I am not familiar with every aspect or group of folks, but I will tell you.
That there are some people, not all, but there are some people who represent the Patriot.
They're called Patriot.
I think it's a bad word.
That's a misnomer.
But it's a Gadsden flag group in the 1776, you know, in the tri-cornered hat and the tree of liberty and the blood of blah, blah, blah.
And these people are absolutely, not clinically insane, but they will storm the best deal.
If you said, alright, run into that wall, show your allegiance by running headfirst into this brick wall and suffer severe brain damage, you would not believe the number of people who would do it if they believed that somehow this was an exhibition of their profound whatever it is.
Now, every group has this.
You know, their Karens, we have this version and that version.
So, if you're going to go on, if you're going to be Alex Jones or anybody else, and you start talking about, let this never happen, you are absolutely, absolutely guaranteed to inspire some lunatic who is going to take that and just exploit it.
And therein, therein lies the issue.
Of Alex Jones.
Because I'm telling you, they are going, again, they are going to use not libel, slander, defamation, but they're going to use incitement.
And by the way, this is for any particular political ideology, not just your right wing or whatever it is.
This is what's critical.
And this is what I'm trying to tell you.
And this, now Brandenburg says, it's not enough that somebody says something, but you've got to use a test of how likely it is.
Is there an immediate enforcement of something?
Is there an immediate incitement?
In fact, to wit, the Brandenburg test.
Let me see.
The court said that advocacy of these ideas could only be punished.
Quote, Where such advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent, not eminent, imminent lawless activity and is likely to incite to produce such action.
So it's directed to incite, imminent, and likely.
So it is intended and directed to make these people go crazy and to seek this particular type of behavior.
And it's intended and likely to do such.
That is it.
Alex Jones is going to have a problem because he theoretically defaulted on everything.
I don't know what issues are left for appeal.
I don't know how they're going to get around that.
I have no idea.
It's a different category.
Had we had the usual case where you respond to the complaint, you have pretrial motions to dismiss.
Interlocutory appeals.
All this other kind of jazz.
Fine.
That could be done.
You know what I mean?
That's great.
But we don't have that.
This is different.
This is completely different.
These issues were not addressed.
That's the issue.
Now, did you know that?
No.
No.
I guarantee you didn't know this.
Because nobody said this to you.
Nobody explained this to you.
People just assume with only 318 likes.
People think, oh, I understand this.
No, I understand law.
No, I watch TV.
I watch Judge Wapner.
I know what I'm talking about.
Oh, I'm a medical doctor.
I know about nutrition.
I know about diet, nutrition, the Constitution, history.
I know everything.
Why?
Because I have the internet and I have a degree in the internet.
And I know what I'm talking about and that's it.
That's not it.
Now, aside from Alex Jones being the worst client anybody could possibly have, that's it right there.
Let me stop right there.
Let me stop.
Let me stop.
Stop, stop, stop, stop.
Because I would be remiss beyond explanation.
I would be remiss if I didn't tell you right now that as we speak, as we speak, there is a man.

You want to keep us going?
Because I'm telling you right now, it may not be the best, it may not be the most popular for reasons that I think have nothing to do with the particular message, but I digress.
I want to be your spiritual leader.
Hear me out.
Because you know who I believe in?
You know what I believe in?
You.
In the power of the individual human spirit.
You.
That's what I believe in.
You.
I believe in you.
And I believe in individual thought.
An independent thought.
And I want you to look at the issues.
Get rid of labels.
Do not be a member of a team.
Once you're a member of the team, then you lose a bit of your individuality.
Be an individual.
What was that, honey?
You said something profound?
I said the likes.
I've been begging.
I've been begging.
Mrs. Ellis says, what about the likes?
What am I going to do?
What am I going to do?
What the hell am I going to do?
I don't know.
What am I supposed to do?
I have an idea.
Very, very simple.
Very, very simple.
I live in a country.
I want to live in a country where everybody can be where they want to be.
Be all that you can be.
Right?
Where have I heard that?
That's what I want.
I want to live in a country of no crime.
I want people to be left alone.
I want people to feel safe.
I want to live in a country where when people are bad, they're locked up.
Perhaps indefinitely.
I want to live in a country where garbage is picked up.
Where streetlights work.
Where there's public schools.
There's public libraries.
Public libraries and the like.
They're still...
I love to see people playing sports.
I love to see public parks.
I like to see people walking on Sundays.
I like to see churches filled.
I want to see churches and places of worship with as many people that drive away as I do in an Olive Garden.
There's an Olive Garden on Route 3. I swear to God, it looks like the stones are there.
It's the most...
That and IHOP.
Olive Garden is a wonderful place.
God bless them.
When I see people in houses of worship, it makes me happy.
Because they're thinking about something other than themselves, a non-salvish world.
But I want you to live in a world where you don't have to do that, but if you want to, it remains unfettered.
We saw during periods of COVID, we saw individual First Amendment rights trampled upon, as many courts agree.
I want to live in a world, very frankly, where the vote counts.
And our system works.
I don't want impeachment.
I want to vote.
You don't like him?
Get rid of him.
Vote him out of office.
I don't like impeachment.
I want to make sure that when I vote, it counts.
That simple.
That's all.
I'm not an election denier or anything like that.
Period.
I believe in the Constitution.
And the Constitution is not necessarily what you think.
And I believe in the individual right of legislation.
And I believe that you can do sometimes on your own.
You understand this?
I believe that you can be on your own.
And I also want to say something.
I believe in our ability to say what we want.
And that means that I've got to hear your garbage and your lies and your distortions and your misinformation and disinformation and data information and all this.
And you know what I do?
I go the other way.
Because I realize this is the price you pay for living in a free and unencumbered republic.
That's it.
I can handle it.
I'm a grown man.
I've heard BS my whole life.
One more is not going to kill me.
Please follow Mrs. L. By the way, she's doing some shorts.
Have you seen?
Oh, listen.
Mrs. L says she wants to live in a world where people leave our children alone.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Do me a favor.
Look at this one.
This is so simple.
We talk about this all the time.
And by the way, here's Mrs. Ellis Blink.
Please, go to this.
It's her short.
You'll love it.
