This one is not for the delicate. You have been warned.

I keep telling my subscribers that the world is crazy, and that you might want to make connections with sane people, because in a world in which the institutions are corrupt and the authorities despise you, there's probably a benefit to being connected with smart people who don't hate your guts.


I've been repeating that message for four and a half years now.

The medical system is institutionalized quackery, the universities are enemies of civilization, and the legal system will screw you ten times over if given half the chance, and that's just for starters. So I said: what if I build a community of smart, normal people, and we figure out not just how to survive this world, but even to thrive and flourish in it?

Hence my School of Life, which I opened in February 2022.

I just had a guy write to say that his family had wanted to have another child but were concerned about their finances. His School of Life accountability group prepped him for a better job, which he got, and that baby was born a few months ago.

Sure beats writing angry letters to the editor, doesn't it?

Well, speaking of our crazy world,
you may have heard about a Somali man, Sharmake Omar, who filmed a white mother named Shiloh Hendrix on a Minnesota playground in April 2025. After a Somali kid had tried to steal from Miss Hendrix, Omar berated her on camera for allegedly having used a racial slur. He repeatedly urged her to say the word on camera, which she proceeded to do (as he himself did likewise, five times).

Today Miss Hendrix was convicted by a white jury of "disorderly conduct" for having uttered the slur -- not for uttering it at the child, but for saying it to the cameraman after he taunted her about it and followed her around filming her in public. For saying a word that because of her race she is not allowed to say, she was ordered to pay a $1000 fine and perform 200 hours of community service.


Now what else do we know about Sharmake Omar, the cameraman? Well, we know that in January 2022 he and another Somali man were accused of having spent two days in a trailer raping an underage girl who had run away from foster care. Three years later, all charges were dismissed "in the interest of justice," with no further elaboration.

Maybe Omar was completely innocent of that charge. It's not metaphysically impossible. But two years before that, he and another Somali buddy caused some trouble that nobody disputes: Omar threw a rock at a car and then attacked the driver, who was 16 years old. His buddy pulled a knife on a 21-year-old Samaritan who tried to help.

Guess what the charge for that crime was. Guess.

Disorderly conduct.

Sentence: $200 fine.

He threw a rock at a car and attacked the driver. He is charged with the same crime as a nonviolent white woman uttering a word, and receives a lighter sentence.

Understand, Shiloh Hendrix was convicted by a jury of her "peers." Her peers thought she should actually be convicted in a court of law for saying a no-no word to a creep.

There's your world.


Maybe that idea about linking up with sane people was a good one after all.

P.S. Speaking of the medical establishment becoming institutionalized quackery (how else can you explain the Covid-era behavior?), we're about to kick off a four-week masterclass for my audience called "The $100 Medicine Cabinet" -- the perfect antidote to our doctor- and drug-obsessed culture


Over four live sessions (the recordings are yours forever), Sarah Thompson will walk you through the real, everyday stuff: colds, coughs, fevers, sore throats, teething, and the classic earache; then the playground casualties -- cuts and scrapes, bumps and bruises, burns, sprains, insect stings, poison ivy, splinters, and the goose-egg on the forehead.

She'll cover which remedies to keep on hand, how to match them to what you're actually seeing, and how much to give and how often. You'll even get her buying guide and shopping list, a remedy reference by symptom, and her "magic potion" topical recipes.

Maybe the most valuable part: she'll teach you to tell instantly when something is yours to handle at home and when it's legitimately time to worry -- so you can stay calm and competent at 2 a.m. instead of pacing the floor.

You build a working medicine cabinet for about a hundred bucks that lasts essentially forever, and you keep the skill for life. Sure beats what you'll hear from our doctor- and drug-obsessed society.


Sarah has been part of my communities for years (you'll also see her aboard the Tom Woods Cruise next month) and has helped a bunch of my people, my wife included, with their health. I am certain you will love her.

We're starting early next week, but as usual for these masterclasses, our early-bird special is in effect starting right now until Monday, the day before our July 28 kickoff. I love and wish to reward you wonderful early birds, so the early-bird special gets you two-thirds off the price.

Join us for this important event (and the recordings are yours forever if you can't attend live):

Tom Woods
