The Tucker Carlson Show

But Orwell actually comes out better than most in the wash. It changed his life. He was shot in the throat on sentry duty. Wrote a wonderful book about it, in which he doesn't mention being shot, I don't think, but called Homage to Catalonia.

Great book, but it changes his worldview completely.

I worked for Phyllis Schlafly. Yep. Right. And so when she wrote A Choice Not an Echo in 1964 and all the way through her career, ...

Phyllis writes about 1964, what they did to, you know, Goldwater at that fight, or she writes in, she wrote about 1980 when they, you know, forced H.W. Bush on Reagan.

I wrote a book about this, The UltraMind Solution, 15 years ago.

in my book, Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order, which I wrote about five years ago. I took and I broke that cycle into five parts of the six parts of the cycle.

If you go in the book, how Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order, you'll see a number of charts.

There's a book I love called It Didn't Start with You.

I read a book called The Moral Animal.

And actually in this book, The Moral Animal, they say the reason we selfdelude is so that you can be truthful and deceive your opponent.

I wrote a book called The Total State because I think that really encapsulates a far wider understanding of the managerial elite and the power they hold.

Lyme disease is caused by a spirochetal bacteria, and you get it through a tick bite.

The problem is it's very often misdiagnosed or diagnosed late, and that that's where the controversy comes in for the disease.

And to complicate it, a tick can transmit up to like 20 different disease-causing microbes, and so if you have like two or three or four of those in one tick bite, it creates a confusing set of symptoms that doctors have trouble diagnosing.

Well, the thing I found in my research for my book is Lyme disease wasn't a problem, a noticeable problem, until the mid-70s.

It's been The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons. And I have to say, I didn't prove that Lyme disease is a biological weapon, but I'm saying something unusual, which I think is related to the biological weapons program, had it happened in the late 60s and the government wants to cover it up.

God is real. There are two genders. Fossil fuels are a requirement for human prosperity. Reverse racism is racism. An open border is not a border. Parents determine the education of their children. The nuclear family is the greatest form of governance known to mankind. Capitalism lifts us up from poverty. There are three branches of government in the United States, not four. And the U.S. Constitution is the strongest and greatest guarantor of freedom in human history.

There is a brilliant philosopher named Rosie Perez... It's a great book written by Murray Rothbard, called The Progressive Era.

His book, Imperial Hubris, is bar none the best book on the terror wars from that era.

Russell Kirk wrote The Conservative Mind, one of the intellectual giants defining the movement.

And the first campaign I ran in was purely out of just curiosity. It was in 1974. You know, the Republicans weren't doing very well in 1974. So I did it because nobody else would run. . . When I got really excited about it was when Bretton Woods broke down. You know, the Bratton Woods system. And that issue, it was just fascinating with me because the monetary issue was there. And I would look at all the literature. It turned out that what I was reading was Austrian economics, free market economics, and monetary policy. And to me, it's so exciting. It's because the other economic systems are pretty sterile. And they're pretty boring where Austrian economics takes into the factor of Human Action. Of course, that's Mises' book, Human Action.

And I remember one of the books I started when I got involved in economics was Human Action. And that's not a little book, you know.

H.R.McMaster wrote a book called Dereliction of Duty about how the generals in Vietnam did not tell Lyndon Johnson they couldn't successfully prosecute that war.

He wrote This Side of Paradise, you know, which Princeton still sort of exalts over as its most romantic portrayal.

the most articulate advocate of that view is a Marxist named Mike Davis who wrote this book called City of Quartz. It's a crazy nihilistic book, but he had an essay and also it's a chapter in that book called Let Malibu Burn.

City of Courts, the Mike Davis book. It was a very fashionable book to read in places like Pacific Palisades and Hollywood and Santa Monica and Venice.

I remember in English class, we were reading a play, The Glass Menagerie, which I found deeply boring.

I think it's one of the most interesting topics there is.

What are the hallmarks? What are the signs of the kind of revolution that's destroyed so many countries?

the point of a system is what it does

the churches are in the closet

if the point of a system is what it does and every so-called communist revolution from the Maoist revolution to the French Revolution to the Spanish Civil War to the Soviet, the Bolshevik Revolution, they all targeted Christians and maybe that's the real enemy for them.
