Friends, life, life, what can you say about life?
It's fascinating.
What's even more fascinating about life, Are the lives of people that you involve yourself with.
We're going to start at 9 a.m. today.
But a legal matter with a particular client came up.
And I will tell you something right now.
And I'm going to tell you this.
And it's the most valuable piece of evidence.
Statement anybody can ever make regarding the practice of law.
It has nothing to do with law.
It has everything to do with people.
It has everything to do with managing people in situations that know no parallel.
A doctor can say to a patient, listen, The problem that we have is with this particular malady, this particular disease, this medication isn't working.
People are more, they're kind of understanding of that.
Not that they're thrilled about that, but they understand it.
When you tell somebody, well this is a court, this is the other party, this is a matter.
This is all man-made.
Everything in law is man-made.
Everything.
The rules, the statutes, the courts, the procedures, the way we deal with each other, the way we respond, the time frame, it's all artificially created.
Artificially created for your avail, for your use, but yet it follows And if you ever think you're going to find this thing called justice, you must first understand and define what justice is.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
So, let me just remind you of that.
And by the way, when you find a lawyer, make sure you have a lawyer you can kind of talk to, that you kind of like, and lawyers, Make sure you have clients you can talk to who are reasonable and rational.
It works both ways.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
Now, people like Judge Alito would understand that sort of because he's always been governmental.
I don't know if he's ever been in private practice or he's ever dealt with maybe firm level.
It's different.
It's a different level altogether.
The stuff you see on TV is nice, but that's not really...
In any event, welcome my friends to the show that never ends.
I want to start off by saying to you, just so that you realize something, everything that you think is normal is not.
Everything is a joke, it is a con, it is a work, it is a complete and total joke.
Not to be negative this morning, but let me just tell you something.
There is no one in charge.
Of our republic.
No one.
Republicans are full of shite.
I don't know what they're doing.
I don't know what they're talking about.
But they're just...
Democrats have abandoned their party to this group of people.
And we have, right now, nobody that we can recognize as being in charge of anything running the show.
How about that?
We cannot possibly, in any way, recognize the fact, and I mean this, that nobody's running the show.
And we are so, we are sidetracked by the most ridiculous of things I've ever seen.
Let me start off with the one that's getting me today.
Golf.
Golf is the most stupid game ever.
That's very difficult.
Exceedingly difficult.
Monumentally difficult.
It could take you forever to learn how to play golf.
Seems easy, but it's not.
But it's stupid.
But it's very difficult.
But it is so profoundly stupid.
John Daly can play golf.
Anybody can play.
I mean, provided you do this.
But it's stupid.
But it's very difficult.
And what's even more stupid than playing it?
Watching it.
Oh dear God.
Now if you want to see a sport, Eskimo Olympics, please look this up.
Please look this up.
Eskimo Olympics.
Golf is the most...
How do we say this?
It's the closest thing people can get to being elitist that anyone can get.
We love to promote this thing called the furtherance of cool.
We will do it sometimes with certain things.
Bowling.
Bowling is a lot of fun.
Bowling is one of the most convivial things that people can do.
Tennis is...
Tennis is...
That's the only game I've really ever actually liked.
I actually liked it.
Played a lot.
It's very nice.
You can pick your own speed.
You can actually kind of talk.
You do a lot of things.
It's very good.
It's very difficult.
If you want to take it to that level.
But golf...
Golf is about the country club.
It's about having your sticks.
It's about the sound of the cleats.
It's about a bunch of...
Boorish people wearing Sanzibelt, Kerry Middlecoff golf pants, garish colors, sitting in the clubhouse, getting drunk, pretending to enjoy...
I don't want to say...
People use this word white.
I don't...
I really resent that.
But it's kind of like an old school, like, look at us.
Hey, we're in the golf.
I'm at the 19th hole.
I'm going to join the...
Here's the cart.
Let me...
When I tell you I have no interest in that, it is to me the most pretentious.
Pretentious.
You want to play golf?
Go to some public course and knock your son.
No, they don't want to do that.
Some people do.
But it's a free country.
And it's a free country for me to say it is one of the most stupid things anybody's ever seen.
It's dumb.
It's just dumb.
It's very difficult.
Okay?
That's difficult to do.
Can you do that?
No.
I mean, not without using your hands.
Okay.
I don't care if Saudi Arabia or anybody is involved in any particular type of golf course, match, or whatever it is.
I don't care.
Stop pretending that Saudi Arabia is the bad guy and China is forgotten.
Stop telling me Russia's the bad guy, but Ukraine's the good guy.
They're the democracy.
What?
Stop telling me that the families, they always drag these poor families, they just drag the families, the families, 9-11.
Do you want to get to the bottom of 9-11?
No.
Stop bringing the families up.
Quit doing that.
I'll talk about 9-11.
You sure you want to do this?
You really want to get to the bottom of who's involved in 9-11?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Come on, you brought it up.
No, I didn't mean that.
Yes, you did.
Yes, you did.
You meant it.
You brought it up.
You wanted to do that.
See, this is the biggest con in the world.
Give me five minutes and the first thing you'll do is shut me down and say, that's enough.
Stop it.
I don't want to hear this.
No, no, no.
Nothing.
9-11 is this boogeyman we drag out when we want on our terms and then drag him back.
We drag him out.
It's our boogeyman.
And we love it.
People are still...
Have you met the...
You don't know this.
I know the...
I was there on 9-11.
The number of people today, the number of people that I have met who claim that they can't function 21 years later, that they suffer from PTSD, you know, watch it.
Not in the tower, just watching it.
You wouldn't believe it.
Oh!
Now, I'm not suggesting people are not believing this.
I'm not saying this.
Sometimes I think, though, there are some folks, not all, but some who are exaggerated.
Sometimes people, it defines them.
I know one guy who completely just checked out.
He pulled this thing.
He said, I'm out of here.
He's told his family, I can't work.
And they've been supporting this bum since day one.
Because he can't work.
Because he saw 9-11.
Now, other people in his family, they worked with him.
Miraculously, they work, but he doesn't.
Because he can't do it.
And it defines him.
Oh, there's Joe.
Joe, do you want to talk about 9-11?
No.
Joe, what exactly?
You're saying the Saudis have something to do with this?
The Saudis.
The Saudis?
I know that the...
The official story is that Bin Laden and others were involved.
Let me just stop right there.
YouTube doesn't want this.
You don't want this.
Nobody wants this.
So since nobody wants this, do me a favor.
Quit dragging these family members out.
Just to get back at Trump.
And Trump is 100%.
By the way, go back at 9-11 and look what Trump said to Channel 9 at the time about building construction.
Listen to what he said.
Listen to what everybody said.
Go back and watch that day from the beginning.
Listen.
Listen to Dan Rather.
Listen to everybody.
Listen to what they said, what they saw that day.
You wouldn't believe it.
You don't want to talk about this.
When a little kid comes to you and says, Mommy, Daddy, how was I born?
You don't want to know this.
But I'll tell you the official story.
I'll tell you a means that I think you'll be able to understand.
This you'll be able to understand.
When Mommy and Daddy love each other, we prayed to God, or said, O God, for you, and out of love, and our union of love, you were born.
How's that?
And then you were born in Mommy's belly.
That sounds good, right?
Yeah.
You want to hear the real truth?
No.
Come on, let me tell you the real story about the Christmas party.
I don't want to talk about that.
You don't want to hear about that?
No.
Okay.
You see, America and everybody else, they never want to hear about something.
Do you ever want to talk about Vietnam?
Do you ever meet a veteran?
What do you say when you meet a veteran?
What do you say?
Thank you for your service.
That's it.
Let it go.
Don't talk about what was it about?
No, no, no.
Don't go there.
Just let it go.
Don't go there.
Don't go.
Don't ever talk about it.
Don't ever talk about it.
Don't do it.
Don't talk about it.
Don't talk about it.
You don't want to hear anybody say to you, for example, you don't want to talk about Vietnam?
No!
What Vietnam was about?
No!
You know, what do we accomplish?
No.
You see, we play these games.
We love to talk about stuff, but we really don't mean it.
We just love to hear lies and distortions.
And let me tell you what a lie is.
A lie is a misrepresentation of the truth with the intent to deceive.
Let me say that again to you.
It's very important that you get this, okay?
It is a misrepresentation of fact with the intent to deceive.
So when you say something that's wrong and you said something that was incorrect because you didn't know any better, that's not a lie.
That's just you were wrong.
And sometimes even the deception can be good.
I mean, if you told somebody, hey, you know, you look great in that.
You look terrific.
Was it meant to deceive?
Yeah, but it was a good deception.
And then we can argue at that point.
But a lie is a misrepresentation of fact can also be not telling you the whole story.
Not telling you what happened.
Not filling in, leaving things out.
Giving you a theoretical answer, but that's not in order to deceive.
And that's what we are.
Let me explain something to you.
I would tell every, every golfer, everybody in Hollywood, China is going to own the NBA.
Who else?
The film industry, movie studios, what?
Oh.
Farms, food, education.
Don't give me this about all of a sudden you're upset about what?
You're upset about what?
Saudi Arabia?
Bin Salman?
Khashoggi?
What are you, nuts?
Are you kidding me?
You expect me to believe that?
Get out of here.
You're worried about that?
Let me tell you the real story.
I don't want to hear that.
No, no, no, no, no!
No, let's talk about...
Nope, nope.
That's our story.
Russia, Saudi Arabia, who else?
China?
Shh!
I never hear it in Washington.
No, no, no, no.
Never hear it in Washington.
It's...
Unbelievable.
I laugh.
You really want to talk about this?
Nope.
I love every now and then I'll meet somebody.
I don't know what you call them.
A normie or whatever word you use.
And I just love to sit there and say, well, let me tell you a few things.
And every now and then I do it.
I don't do it too, too often, but I do it every now and then.
And I love to get it and just absolutely...
It's like bringing in Jack Dempsey at his prime and saying, hit this guy.
And then walk off.
Whenever I hear somebody say about anything, Afghanistan, Iraq, the election, Trump, 9-11, COVID, anything!
Anything!
And you wait and you realize, ah, this guy's a mark.
Mia Zark, he's a mark.
This is typical.
He believes the usual.
Well, I'm going to show him a thing or two.
And I'm going to tell him a couple of things he probably didn't know.
So, you play golf.
You don't worry about that.
You've got LeBron James, my namesake, theoretically, who basically won't say anything about China.
And let me also tell you something about China.
And let me, let me, let me, Give you an idea of something.
And this is the most important.
And I want to explain this to you.
I'm going to get to the forums in a moment, but I want you to understand something.
Do you know what realism is?
Do you know what realism is?
Let me explain to you.
Realism is one of the greatest things in the world that you can possibly ever...
It's a...
It's like a school of thought, which is so wonderful.
So...
wonderful.
And you're surprised.
That's a name?
Yep.
Mearsheimer is the best of the realists.
And let me explain to you this.
If I met Xi Jinping, China, and I sat down with him, and I said, you know Xi, I know exactly what you're doing.
You are a part of a revolution.
You have made it clear.
Do you know who this guy is?
Do you know what his family, what they did to his mother and his father?
Basically the party?
And he went, huh?
This guy is as hardcore.
He is to China, Communist China, Marxism, Marxian, Maoism, whatever you want to call it, as you are to America, whatever it is.
He's hardcore.
You will never, ever get a version of him that is similar or akin to a like a Gorbachev.
There will never be a Gorbachev, there will never be, you know, Glasnost or Perestroika or any of that jazz.
Nothing.
Never.
Ever.
I understand it.
Look at me when I tell you this.
Accept this.
Realism.
That's the way it is.
It's not good.
It's not bad.
They want to trounce us.
Not because they're evil, but from their point of view.
It's because they're right.
You know how all these people want to trounce Putin and Russia and Saudi Arabia and who else?
Well, that's about it.
We don't really have a lot of enemies today.
Same thing.
From Russia's point of view, they're looking at you and they're saying, what are all these people?
What did we ever do to them?
They're Russian.
Okay, fine.
It's realism.
You got it?
Do you understand what's happening in Ukraine?
Do you understand?
Do you get what's happening?
This is Elle and I. We were talking the other day.
She said some things, and I hope everybody gets a chance to have a brilliant wife or spouse or partner, as I do.
And we were discussing this Vogue picture.
Zelensky and his wife.
And I was looking at it from the viewpoint of propaganda and, you know.
And she said, no, that's not propaganda.
That is the new force, the new governance, the new people.
That's who these people are.
They promote this.
They promote Zelensky and his wife and this sort of thing.
It's a merger.
It's not propaganda.
The people who now run Vogue, the people who run...
Let me explain to you.
I'm going to give you a time-out for just a second.
I'm going to say something that I realize most people here will not understand.
And that's not meant to be rude, but it's the truth.
There was something, I think maybe it was because of when, maybe Mrs. L and I grew up, but she knows more than I do.
But there was a time where we had this really neat kind of elegance, and this went vogue and bizarre, and Diana Vreeland, and the women who lunch, and we were talking Babe Paley, and way before Anna Wintour, and before...
When the Met was something, when you could see limousines at Park Avenue, and it was just, what were the other ones?
Vogue?
Bizarre, maybe?
I don't know.
I'm fascinated.
Fascinated by this world of society.
I don't want to have anything to do, and will not.
It's over with.
But I'm fascinated by this.
It's like watching a rare type of animal.
The days of Muffy Potter Ashton and Nan Kempner and all these people and this and the DuPonts and the Vanderbilts and the Hearsts and this and that and the Cushings and the Paley's and And the Whitneys and the Morgans and oh my god!
And they just, oh, the blue blood and old money and take that now and go like this.
And now you've got Mark Zuckerberg.
You've got Jack Dorsey.
You've got this low-rent, low-class bowling alley, with all due respect, hillbilly, trailer trash, low-rent, podunk.
Not even nouveau riche, parvenu, panjandrums, whatever you want to call it.
It's over!
It's done!
So now you have these stragglers, Anna Wintour with the wig and the glasses, hanging on for dear life.
And they told Anna, listen, you're going to do what we say.
You're going to turn vogue.
And the world of fashion, it is not fashion anymore.
It's going to merge with...
Listen carefully.
I know this may not be your bag, but this is the best lecture, the best class.
You're going to get anywhere.
And if you understand this, the light will go on.
You're going to see a merging of everything.
Culture, education, sports, movie, entertainment, finance, doconomies, ESGs.
This idea for these weird mergers.
I told you, Council for Inclusive Capitalism.
Are you seeing what's happening right now?
Are you seeing this?
So, Anna Wintour, if you...
Could exhume these people from the old days, these whoever.
And you were to say, now we're going to be promoting in terms of the fashion.
We're not into debutantes and going to the armory and the Met.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
If we do have the Met, You're going to have people show up and they're going to be pushing transgenderism, puberty blockers.
What?
Imagine, who is it?
Bring them back.
All these, the usual suspects.
They would just sit around and Slim Keith and all these names.
You don't know who they are.
And they would sit around and say, Let me show you.
Let me take you ladies.
This is the Met.
This was the gold standard.
What is this?
It's trash.
These people are trash.
Do you know that when they have something like an Anna Wintour, she's hanging on by a thread, because even that's been completely taken over.
Do you know these people go up the front door and out the back?
Did you know that?
They can't stand this.
Everything is gone now.
Everything.
Award shows, magazines, fashion.
It's all been supplanted, subverted, changed by a woke ESG.
This strange form.
What if I told you there was this thing called inclusive capitalism?
What is that?
Inclusive.
I had a dear friend of mine.
This was the greatest guy ever.
He passed away.
And he was so old school.
It wasn't.
And I loved him.
I mean, he was Wall Street.
This guy was something else.
I mean, we...
He had a club.
I'm not going to mention a club, but he had a winter because they have clubs.
This club, we used to have lunch.
Oh, my God.
It's so exclusive.
You don't even know it's there.
And I used to look around.
I'm thinking, oh, my God.
And we used to sit.
And he didn't die that long ago.
Did you know that Biden is in office for 555 days?
And if I told him what I'm seeing right now, if I said to you, ESG, Klaus Schraubman, ESG, marketing, inclusive capitalism, he would say, what are you talking about?
It's not capitalism, we don't care about that.
There is a reset of everything.
The word reset's not even a word anymore.
It doesn't even matter.
I'm losing you.
I recognize this.
Forgive me.
It must be terrible sometimes.
I feel sorry for you.
Because one of the problems with seeing everything as clearly as I do is not being able to find anybody to share this with.
I'm telling you.
I'm sharing something with you other than Mrs. L. I have no one to talk to.
It is so clear.
And they're looking at me like, what is he talking about?
ESG is inclusive.
What are you?
And I went to her.
Don't you see this cancer spreading?
Everywhere.
Let me give you an example of something.
Now I told you, speaking of capitalism, I told you that for the longest time, the thing which I found to be the most important and critical was the idea of food emergencies.
And I realized something.
When I talk about my patriot supply, I'm afraid the word patriot is going to be I think it's being used far too much.
I'm sorry to say that.
It shouldn't be.
It should be a beautiful word, but I think the wrong people are using it.
But my Patriots of Life and the only website URL is preparewithlinel.com And you can't...
I heard this the other day.
We're talking to a friend of ours.
Really?
Yes.
Food sufficiency.
Food independence.
And we're talking to a friend.
I said, you have a basement, right?
And you've got a refrigerator.
How do you...
If I said you're survivalist, what does that mean?
Do you have a 90-day supply right now?
90 days.
If everything shuts down, trucks can't get there, grid problems, they close stores because of...
Do you remember COVID?
Everything was just closed.
Remember that?
You can go into this store and then...
Empty shelves.
We see empty shelves sometimes if it's a snowstorm.
What are you going to do in the event of a shutdown?
90 days.
What are you going to do?
How about two days?
Three days?
What are you going to do?
What?
Are you going to go through your stuff?
My Patriot Supply, you get $150 off of a three-month supply.
David, you will thank God you were smart enough to do this.
You will thank God.
You will look back and you will say, 2,000 calories a day, 16 varieties of various combinations, 25 years shelf life, in these two rugged buckets.
Let me think about this.
Actually, in three months, The best.
This is six buckets.
120 pounds.
25 year shelf life.
Think about this.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner.
Combinations you can't even believe.
And you'll think, thank God, preparewithlionel.com, somebody thought of this.
Thank God somebody did this.
All the information's there.
Then you're going to look at this like, oh my God.
90 days?
90 days in this.
Six of them.
Stack them up, leave them there.
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do when the second day...
Well, there's a Costco.
There's a this.
It's closed.
The insurance companies.
There's nobody there.
There's no lights.
There's nobody working there.
These people, I don't know where they went.
There's no deliveries.
I don't know.
Maybe.
Who knows?
Collapse.
You have to be almost paranoid to think about this.
Think about this.
Think about it.
See, that's a problem.
Economic collapse.
Disruption of food chains.
Natural disasters.
Preparewithlionel.com And the biggest impediment you have is this internal part of you that says, I don't want to think about that.
I don't want to think about that.
Better think about that.
Preparewithlionel.com Preparewithlionel.com Look for yourself.
Okay.
I want you to know something.
I recognize the fact that what I'm saying, nobody else is saying.
I recognize this.
I want you to understand this.
I'm not spending my days talking about every stupid thing that Carmelita says.
It just bores me.
I'm not going to do that.
It's not what I'm doing.
And I see these people, and I love...
You know what I really love?
This is another topic now.
It's a separate topic.
Because sometimes I find people are so...
Conversationally lacking that if you talk about something else, they say you're changing the subject.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Hey, are you...
Weren't you just playing this song?
Yeah.
You're playing another one?
It's a concert.
We play different songs.
Oh, you're changing your mind?
Stick to a song for the whole night?
I'm serious.
Let me ask you a question.
Be honest with you.
Somebody wrote, I would purchase your food products, but I am very finicky.
I would purchase your food products, Well, I want to talk to you about something, about being finicky.
It's called an...
I just have to say something right now.
Because I'm trying to contain myself.
I've just described an emergency.
Let me stop for just a second.
This is very important.
I'm not going to mention any names here.
Because I want people to be honest and I'm not picking on anybody.
But this is the mindset.
This is how spoiled we are.
An emergency.
Emergency.
Survival.
No.
Food available.
Just hang on.
No stores.
No electricity.
No nothing.
Locked.
You can't find...
We couldn't find hand sanitizers.
Frozen food?
Gone.
Bread.
Bread!
No bread!
Everything that you can have a meal?
Gone.
This store closed.
That store closed.
And as it happens...
People are just getting more and more panicky, and when they get panicky, they start to hoard, and there's even less there.
And you're finicky!
Just saying.
As people are walking around, keeling over, and you know what?
I would enjoy normally that bread you have, but is that gluten-free?
See, I'm gluten-free.
I have a...
I'm not partial to wheat.
In an emergency, well, I will eat beef tallow.
I will eat raw rabbit organs.
I don't know what the word emergency...
See, this is how spoiled we are.
This is how we just don't get it.
Talk to people from Cuba.
I was raised in Florida.
I used to hear these stories.
My friends, their fathers and mothers, their abuelos, and I would hear this.
You know, I'm rather finicky, though.
I do enjoy a nice aperitif.
I have aperitif.
With my nice cordial before we tuck into a, maybe have a kind of an antipasto.
It doesn't work like that.
This is where we are.
See, Americans, we just don't get it.
We don't get it.
We don't get it.
Give me a minute.
Let me just calm down for a second.
Wow.
Now, I was going to say something before I was rudely Rudely.
Not rudely.
I'm sorry.
Jon Stewart.
You know what I love?
I love when people try to figure out what did you do with your career and what are you doing now exactly?
And I would take Fredo Cuomo and Jon Stewart and I would say put them on a show together.
People would watch.
But let me say something.
The same way, you know who else?
Let me ask you.
If I said, you're not going to believe who's going to be co-hosting tonight with Fredo.
You ready?
Honey Boo Boo.
Wouldn't you watch?
I would.
I admit it.
Honey, wouldn't you watch Honey Boo Boo and Chris Cuomo talking about Ukraine?
Honey Boo Boo!
Or maybe Teresa Giudice from the Real Housewives of New Jersey.
You wouldn't watch that train wreck?
I would.
See, but that's what they do today.
Let's put him on.
Let's put him on because he does fake weights, for God's sakes.
This is a guy who was doing these behind-the-neck tricep extensions, 100-pound bump.
Come on.
Please.
Well, allegedly fake weights.
He might have super...
Remember how he was showing you how strong he was?
Don't you love men in their 50s who are saying, see, I can pick up strong.
There's a guy I know.
You know him too, I'm not going to think.
Instead of him saying, I want you to recognize me as a news, he's always saying, look at me, look how many pull-ups I'm doing.
I'm at the gym.
I'm boxing.
I don't understand that.
I think it has a lot to do with maybe middle age or something.
But then there's Jon Stewart.
Jon Stewart, at the height, he was the man.
He was so, his writing was so good.
That show was perfect.
Irrespective of, you don't remember what he was.
He was pretty, this was before Trump, which goes to show you that.
He was actually pretty good.
He created a new genre.
He was responsible.
Stephen Colbert?
Steve Carell?
Boom.
Samantha Bee?
Boom.
Whoever these people are.
All, you know, Trevor Noah.
Trevor Noah, who people say, oh yeah, that's that.
Okay.
Him.
So, Jon Stewart, at the height, at the trajectory, he says, no, I'm going to quit.
I'm going to walk away and have a petting zoo in...
He pulled kind of a Curtis.
He got into, like, animals.
I guess because his wife's into that.
Just like Curtis Lee was into feral cats.
Nobody gives a damn about feral cats.
So he leaves, and he goes to Jersey, and he becomes whoever the hell it was that it became, and just was forgotten.
He's ancient.
Kids today, they have no idea who you're talking about.
So every now and then he comes back again and he does this stuff.
He does this real feisty stuff where he walks in.
He's got his hat on.
Kind of looking like me in Washington or wherever it is.
And he raises hell over the obvious.
And he normally picks legislation that's going to pass anyway.
And what he does is it's about him.
And the way you do it.
Let me see if I explain this.
Now this is a new subject, but I'm going to give you a hint of how to do something.
And if you do it, just give me credit for it.
Let's say I want...
There's a bill called...
Something for, let's say, children.
The Equality Act, which is a different story.
What was the one to the Blumenthal and...
Kids Online Safety.
What was the one that wanted...
No, no, what was the other one?
Blumenthal and Graham, the Earning Act.
Okay.
Now what I would do is, let's say I'm a big star, and I'm going to go and I'm going to say, now listen, can I talk to you, Senator, whoever the Senator is, doesn't matter.
First and foremost, I want you to understand something.
What's your position on this?
Well, we're going to pass it.
Good.
Any need?
Any problems?
Well, this might be a problem.
Can we do anything?
Well, we might want to talk to him.
Okay, good.
I'm going to make you look like a champ.
When you see me come to Washington, you're going to open up the door.
You're going to say, look at this.
He's back.
Not here comes this a-hole again, wanting to scream and yell at the GOP.
Nobody likes that.
First, I'm trying to do something for the kids, veterans, firefighters, first responders, whatever it is.
That's what I'm after.
Not me.
Them.
And I want to make sure that I don't piss people off.
And they're not going to take it out on me.
They're going to take it out on them.
So I'm going to make sure that I get up and I say, I want to thank...
It's time that we put this partisanship away and understand that we have a mission here.
And I want to thank the dedicated and the proven and the true leadership and the respected leadership of senators and Congress, and thank you.
Thank you, not for me, but on behalf of these brave men and women.
And you leave, they get their bill, and the next time you go, they go, hey, there's Jon Stewart again.
He always makes us look good.
Jon, come on in here.
Hey, what do you want?
What do you want?
I'll tell you what I want.
You're going to make us look good?
Absolutely!
Versus making a speech and raising hell and yelling and you think that...
I remember one time there was a 9-11 bill they were going to pass anyway.
You mean to tell me that you're going to tell these first responders we're going to pass it?
Yeah, and don't tell me they didn't give up their lives.
We're going to pass it.
What are you doing?
What are you talking about?
Oh, whatever.
See, this is the thing I don't understand.
If I represent you, this is the best part.
If you're charged with a criminal offense, they're not going to hear from us.
They're not going to hear from you, me, anybody.
I'm talking to the prosecutor.
I'm going to say, now listen, we've got to make this thing go away.
Now, I haven't said anything, but I'm not going to do anything for my client if I'm going to pull a Bruce Cutler or, and these people today think!
Not Bruce, but you know what I mean, that kind of a loud mouth, and I'm going to tell you!
Remember poor Harvey Weinstein?
That's right, I said poor Harvey Weinstein.
This guy got hosed.
He's a bad dude, but not anywhere near the way they treated him.
They jumped on him prior.
Meanwhile, Epstein gets nothing.
Did you ever hear of Epstein?
Excuse me, did you ever hear of Ghislaine's lawyers?
Who were they?
I like that.
There was a guy named James La Russa.
He represented Paul Castellano.
Never heard from this guy.
Never.
Went in, did his job, went home.
Quiet.
I don't understand.
I don't understand how people do this.
They're always yelling and screaming.
The first thing we're going to do is we're going to say, you're going to say nothing.
And if you're in charge of something, you're going to just go away.
You're going to go away for a year.
And we're not going to go on TV.
And we're not going to do any social media.
We're not going to do anything about this.
Nothing.
They're going to forget all about us.
So that one day we come in on a Friday afternoon at the courthouse and nobody's there.
And we put it on the docket.
We're in and we're out.
And nobody knows because we kept our mouths shut.
We didn't say anything.
But oh, not these people.
No, no, no.
No, they've got to be evangelical in their pursuit of whatever it is they're talking about.
Okay.
Second man.
You know who I'm talking about.
My man, Mike Lindell.
From MyPillow.
That's right.

Sleep deprivation.

We have this weird idea in this country about sleeping and naps.
We don't look at it in terms of, well maybe not now, maybe this generation, I don't know.
But there was a time when we looked at it as lazy.
Boy, these Europeans are their siestas.
What's wrong with that?
Sometimes they would have these things called nap rooms.
They would laugh at that.
Well, nap rooms are good, provided you're not spending an inordinate amount of time napping.

Okay.
We talked about some other glorious things today as we move into this.
There was a...
I don't know how to get to this anymore, but I'm going to try to present this idea to you.
And I want you to do this today.
And I want you to do this today.
And I want you to do this and follow the way I do this.
This is what I do all the time.
I do it all the time.
Always.
Here's what I do.
I'll tell you how this works.
Let's say you're having lunch.
You got a real smart-ass friend.
A guy who doesn't know it all.
Hey, Jerry!
Yeah.
You know, Jerry was going to ask you a question.
And if anybody would know this, you would.
Because you're a pretty sharp guy.
You read two or three, you know, newspapers a day.
Newspapers.
Anyway, if anybody would know this, Jerry, it's you.
I want to bring this to your attention.
Let me ask you a question.
Do it just like I'm saying.
Because again, if anybody would know it, you would.
So here goes.
I know it's a stupid question, but no harm in asking.
Jerry, what exactly is the Federal Reserve?
And just stop.
Don't say anything.
Just stop.
And wait.
And the silence will destroy him.
And just...
Because nobody knows.
Nobody's ever had to put this into words.
A lot of us know, but most people have not, never thought it was important.
Okay, here's the way to do it.
Same thing.
You're sitting around, maybe having lunch, maybe you've got some anti-Trump friends, maybe relatives, whatever it is.
You do it just like this.
You know, Jerry, if anybody would know this, you would.
Because you're a pretty sharp gang.
You're sharp.
I know you keep up on this and you know this better than me, but...
And here's the question I have, Jerry.
Maybe you can help me.
What exactly did President Trump do that was illegal on January 6th?
Illegal.
Not stupid.
Not stupid.
I know we can go on with that one.
Not dumb.
Not politically imprudent.
Tell me.
Tell me, what did he do that was illegal?
What?
And you wait.
I have a friend of ours, you know who I'm talking about, a young man who happens to be gay, who said, Trump?
Trump did terrible things against either gays or transgenders.
This was a long time ago.
And I said, damn him!
What was it exactly?
And you could have heard a pin drop.
Um, go on.
What was it?
What did What did Trump do against gay people?
Or against...
He's a racist.
What did he do?
Tell me.
Remember when Trump shut the borders down for like seven countries?
And they called it anti-Muslim.
I said, you know what's funny to me?
Maybe you can figure this out.
If anybody would know, Jerry, it's you.
But you know, the biggest Muslim country in the world is Indonesia.
I don't think he did anything about Indonesia.
He didn't mention that once.
He only mentioned a number of countries and if I recall correctly, it was about terrorist involvement, not religion.
But maybe you know more than I do.
Maybe you know that.
I don't know.
People say these things and they don't know what they're saying.
They don't know the basis for what they're saying.
Tell me again.
Why are we doing this January 6th stuff?
Merrick Garland, okay, is doing what?
He said, I am not going to overlook any example or any whatever it is of insurrection or what have you.
Okay.
What did he do?
What did he do?
Well, he was suggesting that maybe the election wasn't legitimate.
And?
Well, that's what...
Didn't Raskin and others do that in 2016?
This is the whole basis of the Hillary Clinton.
Where have you been?
What do you think Russian collusion was?
Russian collusion was that the Trump election was invalid.
Why is that okay and this not?
I don't understand that.
Maybe you can figure...
Maybe you can help me with this one.
What exactly did he say?
What?
What did he do?
Now, insurrection...
Actually, sedition...
Insurrection is really not the issue.
Sedition...
Sedition is really...
And that's kind of like an interruption of a normal function of government.
And one can make the argument maybe that perhaps interfering with, you know, I don't know, the...
Oh, jeez.
The certification of the vote or whatever.
Yeah, maybe, maybe.
Okay.
What did Trump do that said that?
Everybody said, Mike Pence thought he was going to die.
And then they said, Mike Pence, they said, do you want to leave?
And he said, no, I don't want to leave.
Oh, wait a minute.
So anyway, just ask people.
Remember.
Don't make any...
This is the opposite of what you do in a courtroom.
You don't ask people questions unless you know the answer.
Unless you can get it.
Just let people talk.
People you meet don't know what they're talking about.
They don't know what they're talking about.
Anything.
Just ask them.
Ask them.
It doesn't matter.
Now, let me also, I'm telling you this, and I want you to listen carefully, because I'm changing the subject a little bit.
For those of you who say, is he changing the subject again?
No, I'm talking about something different.
It's like a chapter, a scene of a movie.
It's like a song on an album.
I want you to focus very, very carefully on what we're seeing right here.
Muriel Bowser, the mayor of Washington, is screaming and yelling over the fact that there were Illegal immigrants, illegals, undocumented, whatever, from Texas, dropped off in D.C., and now they're calling for the National Guard.
Here's what they're going to do.
The shadow government is going to abandon her.
She's pleading, help me.
Parenthetically, I did what you said.
I did everything.
Remember when they wrote Black Lives Matter in yellow paint?
In front of the Hay Adams, remember that one?
In front of the, in front of the Lafayette Park, the Hay Adams is here in that church, remember?
Remember that?
Remember, Black Lives Matter, they did it right in front of Trump, building big yellow paint.
That was important, wasn't it?
Oh, that's so important.
Big.
Where's Black Lives Matter now?
I don't know.
Where's the money?
I don't know.
What about the audit?
I don't know.
What about the woman who was charging?
I don't know.
Where is the money?
I don't know.
Well, where did it go?
I don't know.
Well, everybody else seems to, you know, whether you're PayPal or this or GoFundMe, they shut it down all the time.
Did we ever have an audit?
No.
Did we ever audit the Fed?
No.
You sure?
No.
How do we know what's in there?
We really don't.
Hmm.
Different story.
So, it just kind of went away.
It just went away.
But yet, January 6th, and not one person ever, Andy Ngo, did a great job documenting Antifa.
Antifa, if that is not organized crime, if that's not rocketeering, if that's not a criminal enterprise devoted to and targeting domestic urban terrorism, I don't know what was.
Anything happen with that?
No.
Well, guess what, Muriel Bowser?
You're on your own.
You're on your own.
And watch what they do to Lori Lightfoot, too.
She's on her own.
Because now you're going to be holding the bag.
And we're not going to help you for your re-election.
You're done.
You did what we said because you believed in this, but we are moving on.
Because our goal is not woke anything.
Our goal is complete and total discombobulation.
And destabilization, period.
Alright, my friends.
Now, have you ever motored west?
Take the highway, that's...
Have you gone to, this is important, Mrs. L's, Lynn's Warriors, her YouTube section, great stuff.
Great, great stuff.
She did her radio show Wednesday and had interns, very wise, very bright, very talented interns, talking about their world today in view of this digital predation and digital as a safety in the way.
Please.
Linz underscore warriors.
There is a, like a governor or something on it.
I swear to you.
She is the most important, the most, let me tell you right now.
She has the most important website of them all.
Linz.
Do it right now.
Linz Warriors.
Right here.
That's it.
Linz Warriors.
And...
And there it is.
Okay?
So you do that.
Now you have a great and a glorious day.
My apologies today for having delayed this an hour.
Some people need my help.
Not that you don't, but they needed it immediately.
And, good news, crisis averted.
Alright, we'll see you again tomorrow.
Same time, 9 a.m. Eastern Time.
Same bad time, same bad channel.
As we always end with our valedictory, our end of a phrase, the monkey's dead, the show's over, sue ya.
