Summary
This document appears to be a page from a memoir or narrative account attached as an exhibit in a House Oversight investigation (stamped HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015422). The text discusses the philosophy of the 'Yippie' movement in the late 1960s, describing it as a mix of political activism and psychedelic culture. It then transitions to a specific anecdote from 1972 where the narrator is smoking marijuana and opium with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, discussing the slang term 'bogarting.' NOTE: This specific page contains no mentions of Jeffrey Epstein, Maxwell, or financial crimes, focusing instead on 1970s counterculture history.

Yippie was only a label to describe a phenomenon that already
existed--an organic coalition of psychedelic dropouts and political
activists. There was no separation between our culture and our politics. In
the process of cross-pollination, we had come to share an awareness that
there was a linear connection between putting kids in prison for smoking
marijuana in this country and burning them to death with napalm on the
other side of the planet. It was just the ultimate extension of
dehumanization. But now reporters had a who for their lead paragraphs. A
headline in the Chicago Daily News summed it up: "Yipes! The Yippies Are
Coming!" Our myth was becoming a reality.

3. In 1972, I found myself smoking a combination of marijuana and
opium with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Lennon was absentmindedly
holding on to the joint, and I asked him, "Do the British use that
expression, 'Don' t bogart that joint,' or is it only an American term--you
know, derived from the image of a cigarette dangling from Humphrey
Bogart's lip?" He replied, with a twinkle in his eye, "In England, if you
