I'd say happy Friday, but I don't even know what that means.
Friday.
Okay.
My friend, I was trying to think of what we call this.
What I call this, what we're going to be talking about today, and I don't even know.
I don't even think it has a name.
It doesn't have a direction.
I am so antithetical to everything that is even remotely considered usual by folks.
Think of it as a form of intellectual stochastic terrorism.
You are familiar with stochastic terrorism.
Please tell me that.
Please tell me, have you heard of this?
Stochastic terrorism.
We're going to be talking about that.
Talking about Mitch McConnell, the complete and total waste of time of the Republican Party.
And I swear to God, if I did not know better, I would venture to say that many people, some in particular, listen to what I say, and the next day I see it repeated.
On a particular show.
I'm just saying.
I'm just saying.
Maybe it's just...
I don't know about it.
We're talking about the waste of time that is Mitch McConnell.
How most probably, despite everything, the Republicans may not take the Senate.
We're talking about one of the saddest examples of where we are.
Herschel Walker and Raphael Warnock in Georgia.
Dear God.
That's all I have to say.
Dear...
God.
This can't be.
This can't be.
Placido Domingo.
I told you the other day.
Placido, don't buy the green bananas.
If ever, if ever, anybody...
You got an 81-year-old guy...
I'm just saying.
I know we don't want to say Epstein too easy, but remember...
Remember when Nino Scalia, remember him?
He was in some Illuminati hunting lodge wearing green something or other.
And he had a pillow on his head and nobody so much as said, Hey!
Hey!
This is weird here.
Nope.
We'll talk about, I'm reading, there's just a wonderful book I've been enjoying now.
It's, I don't even know when it's been out, but it's about Mossad, and it is the Mossad, or if you're cool, you just call it Mossad, without any particular type of, it is Mossad.
And it is by the greatest missions of the Israeli Secret Service, Michael Barr Zohar and Nisim Mishal.
Great!
Cheers!
And Aman, that's the CIA, but the military intelligence is even better.
And how?
We just don't have that.
Well, the good guys don't have that.
The intel agencies are privately owned.
They're owned by shadow government, you know, big tech folks.
In that respect.
We're talking about CNN, the end of CNN, and how this Chris Licht is being given the credit.
He's not firing anybody.
He's being told it's probably Zaslav.
We'll talk about that one.
Just so many other great questions.
Just sit back.
I got so many things you're going to say.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
But two, two things, we've got to do some business.
Number one, I want to remind you of something, and this is very, very important.
As you know, and I want to remind you, for reasons that we will never really understand, the reason I will never understand, for reasons that you, perhaps, may not like you to understand, is as follows.
Let me see.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
As you know, YouTube has demonetized us for over two years for reasons and bases we have never been informed of.
And there was no indictment, no charging instrument, and no bill of particulars.
Now, in the glory days of free speech and commercial support, we enjoyed your generous contributions.
Your thoughtfulness to keep us going, to show your commitment, your involvement.
And we had this wonderful thing called Super Chats.
But alas, you, and I, but you, have been stripped of your pecuniary ignition switch of vocal support.
And let's face it, everything today right now, it is all a paywall.
And when you like something, if you want to tip, if you want to say keep up the good work, if you want to ask a question, that was taken away.
And you've been asking, how can I contribute?
How can I participate?
How can I have my questions, my points, my observations, or just my thank you, how can I have it acknowledged and lodged while supporting the cause?
How can I just support you?
Good news!
We have the Super Lionel Nation chat, or the Super Lionel Nation feature, whatever you want to call it.
You can utilize the Lionel Nation PayPal link below and right here.
And the donation you see fit, from the bottom of your heart, that is commensurate with our daily work, the amount of work that we do every day, every single day I give you of my life, one hour every day of my life, seven days a week, without fail, unabated, to keep us...
Unabated and unmolested from the constraints and the draconian yoke of commercial incarceration.
So you can do it.
Support us.
Say thank you.
Say bravo.
Keep up the good work.
Every single day.
This is a full-time gig.
I don't care what anybody says.
To do this one hour a day.
Every single day.
No commercials.
No breaks.
No bathroom.
No nothing.
I've got friends of mine who do radio.
They may do 30 minutes tops an hour.
Tops.
And even that's kind of...
This is a different story.
And I just had done doing two Lionel Media.
Lionel Nation, I guess, subscription stuff.
About things that I can't talk about here.
Because this is also constrained.
Keep in mind this.
There's some things I've got to speak in code.
It's like there's children listening.
So there you have it.
We have a PayPal link.
At Lionel Nation.
Thank you.
And if you're into Venmo, if you're a Venmo person, at Lionel Nation.
It's right there.
Right there.
Lionel Nation.
Lionel Nation.
Alright.
Good.
Now, more importantly, not more importantly, but in addition, I've got to tell you this stuff.
This is the hugest news so far.
Because PrepareWithLionel.com, you have been...
I mean, I love this.
Did you ever go, years ago, when you were a kid, I used to like to go to Army-Navy stores and just see this great stuff that I never thought about.
Military issue, this, and canteens, and supplies, and camping, and look how they put that.
Look at the cone, look at this.
Well, that's what...
That's what Prepare With Lionel is all about.
That's what this is right now.
This is the most important thing for you to be a part of.
My pantry supply has done this, but we've got a deal for you.
If you go to Prepare With Lionel, you can save right now $250 on a three-month food kit, which is the minimum.
By going to preparewithlionel.com, this is the lowest price since 2019.
In three years.
$250 savings on a three-month emergency food kit.
2,000 calories, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, drinks, you name it.
Stored like you cannot believe.
25 years storage.
Stack it perfectly.
There it is.
Because I am telling you, I'm not exaggerating.
This is something, you know, check it out.
Do the math.
Look it up.
Food shortages are coming.
And with, let's face it, we're going to most probably be losing the Senate too.
It's just, it's incredible.
So preparewithlionel.com.
Don't do this.
Think about you and your family and being prepared because as you know it and I know it, it's happening all over the world.
I mentioned yesterday there was farmers selling, basically destroying crops because of, quote, drought.
So preparewithlionel.com, preparewithlionel.com.
There's a link.
You can go right here on the details section here, preparewithlionel.com, and you will be so thankful you did.
Are you familiar with something called, this is a brand new, stochastic terrorism?
Stochastic terrorism.
I just did a piece on this, by the way.
I did a brand new video at Lionel Nation.
And let me read to you this wonderful little bit of definitional section, which might help you.
Might help you.
Let me read it as follows.
And let me see.
And here we go.
And we read it.
Here is a definition.
Stochastic.
Stochastic means kind of like, I don't want to say idiopathic, but something.
But stochastic terrorism is the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted.
Isn't that great?
Radical left, wokeies, and the life, whatever you want to like, whatever you call these people, they will say a certain thing, and if they say something that might be perpetuated and promoted by, let's say, BLM, which, by the way, have you noticed this?
There's no more BLM.
Have you heard anything about BLM anymore?
Nope.
They're gone.
Done.
Took the money run.
See ya.
See ya.
Gone.
See ya.
Goodbye.
No more BLM.
Nope.
No more.
Gone.
Antifa?
Gone.
Goodbye.
Have a good day.
Have a good day.
Isn't that amazing to you?
She's gone.
Now, if you say something which might be indeed interpreted as being Theoretically problematic or violent or whatever you want to call it for them, that's a different story.
That's okay.
That's just...
What are you going to do?
That's just called protesting.
That's just called protesting.
And Don Lemon and others have told you, this is protesting.
You know, if you want to make an omelet, you've got to break a few eggs, and that's the way that goes, and it's protesting.
You know, don't...
So it's very, very interesting.
And what's happening right now is that we're seeing this.
And I want to be very, very careful.
I want to say this in a way that in no way, in no way, in no way, he's taken the wrong way by the sensibilities and the hypersensitivity of social media platforms and the like.
Let me see if I can phrase it this way to you.
And I've addressed this.
How do I mince words here?
Let's assume that instead of gender surgery, phalloplasties and all of these, let's assume there were race-affirming surgeries.
Imagine There were race blocking.
I don't think it made any sense, but there were surgeries that would remove external morphologies and the like that are normally attributed to race.
Surgeries to affect Nose, eyes, epicanthus, jawline, hair, skin, melanin, hue, colors, voice lessons, affectation lessons, to transmogrify, to convert, to change race.
And you had surgeries and doctors.
What do you think would be the reaction to that?
And I didn't say which way.
I didn't say going from black to white, or white to black, or black to white, to Asian, to Malaysian, to whatever it is.
But what if, what if the Dolezal, the Rachel Dolezal idea came from?
Because many people have argued that when you are born a particular, quote, gender, and if that's subject to being transmogrified, then therefore, What your race, and that's even less, because race, race is not, that's a tough one, but whatever it's worth.
There were people who were furious, many black Americans who said, you can't claim to be black.
You've never been through the black experience.
You've never known prejudice.
I think it's a heck of a point.
And they summarily rejected what she said.
Get out of here!
I don't want to hear this.
I don't want to hear about it.
But what happened?
I just addressed this.
Use your imagination.
Would there be tolerance for this?
Would the stochastic aggression argument...
Now, let me explain something, too, which is important to note.
There are folks who are pointing out that it was Boston Children's Hospital and that sort of thing.
I'm not saying this to be gratuitous.
I am not saying this just to say it.
When I hear that people are actually advocating violence for anything, threatening, My blood boils.
I don't care what it is.
I don't care how you feel strongly about anything to threaten somebody.
That's kind of cultural savagery.
We're threatening somebody because you dare to believe?
No.
And that's not being gratuitous.
That's absolutely God's honest truth.
So that has got to stop.
But that's kind of who we are.
Okay, next.
Listen to me and listen good.
I have been telling you, and I know people get upset with this.
This is when my conservative friends get very upset, my Republican friends.
I'm saying there is no Republican Party.
They are going to lose this.
They are wasting their time.
And I've been saying this and saying this and saying this, and even Mitch McConnell, and if you don't know what that's about, you're simply just not paying attention, but Mitch McConnell even said to the day that he said, well, I don't know whether we're going to take, or we're going to keep the Senate, or we're going to flip the Senate.
This is a theoretical, this is the leader of the Republican Party in the Senate.
Now you know and I know what that means.
He doesn't want to change.
It's easier to say, well, what are you going to do?
We're not the modernity.
It's easy.
You can raise more money.
We've got to do something about this.
That's why I'm asking you, Republicans, well, didn't you have, weren't you going to win last night?
Well, yeah, we were, but why didn't you win, Mitch?
Well, because you're not, you have a president with the lowest, the lowest numbers in the history of record keeping, and you're not going to flip the Senate?
I have been telling you about this.
I have been telling you about this.
Forever.
I have been telling you, are you reading?
Are you paying attention?
I know you're not.
I know you're not.
Because you don't want to.
Are you reading what they're saying about President Trump's inner circle?
About his family?
About the people?
Who are the quizlings about this?
Who's the dead weight?
Who are the grifters?
Look at what's going on.
Have you seen what they're saying about Jared Kushner?
Are you paying attention to what's going on?
Did you see this article about Kimberly Guilfoyle and about your buddy Charlie Cook, the guy who, by the way, doesn't believe that the First Amendment applies to Satanism?
I smell a rat.
And I know a rat.
And I know a rat when I see one.
And I've been telling you for the longest time that the Republicans are the worst.
Again, they're going to be given this again.
They might win the House.
I hope so.
But they're not your friends.
They're not on your side.
They're CPAC.
They just want money.
They just want to go on.
You know, just want to go on Fox News and hey!
Hey!
We're going to talk about something right now called authenticity, which is something very, very critical.
Very, very, very, very critical.
But before we do that, we're going to talk about authenticity.
I'm going to talk about Mike Lindell and MyPillow.com promo code Lionel.
You go to MyPillow.com slash Lionel.
Got some great little memes here.
And our good friend, the lovely, the talented, the inimitable, the ineffable, the one-of-a-kind, the sui generis, the non-pareil Mike Lindell.
And I'm telling you, and I know the pillows are great, and they're wonderful, and they're great, and I'm telling you, but the thing that I love the most, which I am just...
Slippers, dear God almighty.
Like walking on clouds.
I can't walk up, I can't perambulate, I can't locomotive without my pillow slippers.
Or my slippers.
It's my slippers.
From MyPillow.com slash Lionel.
Promo code Lionel.
Don't use any other promo code.
If I find out, these alone are just...
And you wonder, when you're wearing them, you think, why can't all shoes be like this?
Ladies, I don't know how you wear the stuff you wear.
It's a free country.
But this, this you should wear with an evening gown.
Then there's MyPillow.
As low as 1988.
Give me a break.
Mike Lindell is giving this away.
1988, MyPillow sandals, MyPillow mattresses, towel sets, bed sheets, beach towels.
MyPillow.com forward slash Lionel.
Promo code Lionel.
Okay.
Let's talk about something right now.
It's called authenticity.
Do you know who I think is the most?
Let me ask you a question because you've been around here and you know what's going on.
Who is the most authentic Republican there is today?
Who is the most authentic Republican there is today?
Politician.
Name it.
I'll let you answer this before I tell you the answer to that.
Who is the number one, the most authentic?
Authentic, dangerous, exciting.
The stones.
Remember when the stones came out?
People were afraid of the stones.
Beatles were nice.
Stones were dangerous.
Who is it?
Other than Trump.
Other than Trump.
Who is it?
Thank you so much.
Two Geese Flying, MTG, Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Absolutely.
Telsey Gabbard, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
And I know you're not supposed to say this.
This is the phoniest thing.
If you can't see through Tulsi Gabbard, I don't know what to tell you.
Ask her about Second Amendment stuff.
Ask her about that.
If you can't see phony, if you can't see somebody who says, oh, you're doing this, oh, this is a vanity thing, don't you?
Oh, I see.
Hello.
And aloha.
But the Yvonne DeCarlo thing?
Okay, fine.
Come on.
I want sincerity.
I want legitimacy.
I've been telling you about Tulsi Gabbard.
Okay.
Alright.
You're just looking at, I guess, window dressing?
I guess.
I don't know.
I guess.
Sort of.
Uh-uh.
She wants to be a star.
She's not in for the...
No, no, no.
Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Whatever you want to say.
She's talking about everything January 6th.
How many people are still wallowing in some gulag?
Anybody?
No?
Oh, Marjorie Taylor Greene talked about that.
She's talking about impeachment against Merrick Garland.
She's the only one with a culioni to do that.
Marjorie Taylor Greene.
And I'm sorry, but as soon as I...
This is terrible.
Maybe this is me.
Maybe it's me.
Maybe there's something wrong with me.
Maybe.
But as soon as I...
Are you acting hot?
Do you want to be hot?
As soon as I see that...
I'm done.
I'm done.
Do you want to do that?
Do you want to do that?
Does Marjorie Taylor Greene, when you see her, does she come across like, I want to be hot?
No.
And as far as I'm concerned, I think if you want to be whatever, attractive, I guess it's an individual thing, but there is nothing more culturally attractive than somebody who is committed to a cause and somebody who's authentic.
Gene Kirkpatrick?
You think she was trying to be hot?
I don't think so.
Margaret Thatcher?
Just go down the list.
If you can't see through Tulsi, if you can't see that, look, as a free country, you can do whatever you want.
Okay?
But I know what that's all about.
Trust me.
You know who's like that too?
I hate to say it.
You're not going to like this.
Matt Gaetz.
Matt Gaetz is like that.
It's like, Matt, take it easy.
He says some good stuff.
If we can get somebody to say what Matt Gaetz is saying and let somebody else say it, Matt Gaetz is always, The other night, I couldn't believe it.
He was on with Tucker.
Remember the night he did that weird thing where he says, Tucker, and we were having dinner.
Remember that one?
What was that?
Remember that one?
What was that about?
He goes, uh.
I thought, he's not on anymore.
Well, he's back.
I don't know what kind of dynamic is going on.
I don't know who these people are probably freaks, okay?
I have no idea.
I'm sure it must be great.
Great working there.
A lot of money.
As long as there's a back entrance, you can say, can I not see these people?
Yeah, okay, I'll go in and get out.
But come on, man.
And God bless these people.
At least there's something.
But Marjorie Taylor Greene is legitimate.
She's legitimate.
You know who's the biggest funny too?
Dr. Oz.
You've got to be kidding me.
You have got...
To be kidding me.
Oh my God.
I can smell BS.
Give me somebody who is legit.
Legit.
That's all.
And I'm going to tell you something right now that you're not going to like.
Bernie Sanders is legit.
Bernie Sanders has been saying this forever.
AOC isn't.
She doesn't know what she's talking about.
Nancy Pelosi isn't.
She doesn't know what she's talking about.
Mitch McConnell?
He's not.
He's not.
I think, you know, who's been pretty good?
I like, I like, consistency is critical for me.
Rand Paul's been saying the same stuff.
Ted Cruz is a phony.
Marco Rubio's a phony.
All of these people.
And the biggest one of them all who just loves this corn-pone Jerry Clower stuff, John Kennedy.
You just fall for this stuff.
I don't know why America just falls for like these characters.
They just, oh, I like him.
Are you listening to what's going on?
He hasn't done anything.
Yeah, but I know, but he's just so nice.
America's into like characters.
We don't have any legitimacy.
Marjorie Taylor Greene.
She's not perfect, but she's as close to it as you can get.
I don't know what these people are about.
I swear to God, I don't know what anybody's about.
And here's the best part about this.
This is the best part.
The Democrats are sitting, well, whoever it is, shadow government, they're laughing their butts off, saying they think, these guys think they're going to win.
They're not in control of anything.
We are.
We've got it so locked down.
You're called an election denier.
See, they're very good with language.
Let me...
As you may or may not know, I appreciate language.
Language is the most wonderful.
How you say things.
The nuances of words.
To come up with something different.
And I love the...
Gradations of words.
Dislike.
Hate.
Abhor.
Despise.
Try putting them on the continuum.
Explain to somebody from a different country.
Explain it.
Our language is wonderful.
Prepositions.
Cutting up a tree, cutting down a tree.
Big, big difference.
I love it.
To be able to sit there and know how words work.
They are the best.
They take all the words.
Shadow government?
Conspiracy theory.
Election denier.
Beautiful.
beautiful You know, we don't, we don't, well, the big thing you said is woke.
You've got woke.
Is that your word?
Yeah.
Okay.
That's it.
That's it.
They've got 50 misinformation, disinformation, white nationalism, white racism, white separatist, white, oh my god, there's so many, here we go, another, another white, and they get the memo.
Have you ever heard this?
You've seen this before.
They must have a 6 o 'clock conference call.
Today's word is election denier.
Stacey Abrams, 28, yeah, but she denied it.
Yeah, that's different.
Hillary Clinton denied it.
Yeah, but that's different.
They're so good.
They are so good.
And what do we do?
You've got Tulsi Gabbard.
Aloha.
Okay, good.
Now, let's talk about something right now.
Schadenfreude.
Schadenfreude.
I did a wonderful piece yesterday at Lionel...
Oh, this is so good.
Ah...
Where is it?
Ah, yes.
Ah, yes.
Schadenfreude.
Listen to this beautiful word.
And I'm taking this.
By the way, a few subscribers would have heard this.
This one's called...
The utter intrinsic psychic joy of viciously mocking landslide Liz's catastrophic annihilation.
That's the subject matter.
And there's this one piece I quote.
It says, the Japanese have a saying, the misfortunes of others taste like honey.
I kind of disagree.
Not others.
The French speak of joie maligne, a diabolical delight in others' suffering.
The Danish talk about skadafried, and the Dutch of In Hebrew, enjoying other people's catastrophes.
I can't pronounce it.
Then there's, in Mandarin, Zinja, whatever.
In Serbo-Croatia, it's called Zlorodos.
In Russia, it's called Zlorodstvo.
More than 2,000 years ago, Romans spoke of Malavolentia.
Earlier still, the Greeks described, I can't pronounce this, I need crystals for this one.
Meaning, epi, over, Cairo, rejoice, kakia, disgrace.
To see others suffer does one good, wrote the philosopher Nietzsche.
To make others suffer even more so.
This is a hard saying, but a mighty human, all too human principle.
The other day, Jeffrey Toobin.
How do you let Jeffrey Toobin, after he's Toobin, there's a pun there, begging for reference.
But how in the name of God do you let Jeffrey Toobin, what he did in front of women and so quote, Chris Licht.
Okay?
Chris Licht, theoretically, so they say, got rid of him and said, alright, that's enough.
Well, I don't know how to tell you this, but it's not Chris Licht.
Okay?
True.
What it is, is very interesting.
What it is, is Zaslav.
That's the guy.
That's our hero.
This is the fellow who's coming along and he's getting rid of all these people, this veritable human swill, because people don't like it.
It doesn't make any sense.
It's horrible.
It's terrible.
It's something that is just one of these things that just...
And yet, Brian Stelter...
Now let me explain something to you, first and foremost.
And I can't say this enough, and I just did a piece on this before.
If you're going to have Brian Stalter on, if you're going to have somebody on who is not, in any way, in any way whatsoever, even remotely appealing, on any particular level you want, if you're going to have somebody like Brian Stalter on, he better be really good at what he does.
He better be really, really good.
When the animals, Eric Byrne and the animals, the animals, they said, this is the ugliest group of people in the world.
They were horrible, but they were great.
The Stones, Mick Jagger, they thought, what the hell is this?
They were great.
Brian Stelter is not necessarily great.
And he was there for the other thing.
He had a good run.
He had a good run doing whatever he did.
And the reason why he was there for so long, And by the way, he did exactly what, to be fair, he did exactly what he was told to do.
That's it.
Jeffrey Toobin, Fredo Cuomo, and now somebody else is going to pick him up?
Why?
Simple.
Maybe he's got some numbers.
We need some numbers.
Hey, that'd be interesting.
A little industry buzz.
Fredo knows what he's doing.
He can handle himself.
Bring him over.
The other day, Freda was doing a podcast with Alec Baldwin.
And Alec Baldwin is actually talking, basically telling the authorities in Nevada, wherever the hell it was, come on.
Come on.
Charge me.
I don't know why.
But Chris Licht, bless his heart, he's the hatchet man.
He's the Luca Brasi.
He's not doing this.
It's Zazlav.
And the reason why...
It's because this model doesn't work anymore.
And why is that?
Let me explain something to you.
You have to know about the business.
Let me go a step further.
I could walk into it.
I promise you.
I could say, give me any network.
Give me any network.
Anything.
Anyone.
The biggest one.
CNN, MSNBC, ABC, Fox, Even the cables, I don't care.
OAN, which is very good.
Just name it.
Bring all their news directors in.
Put them in a room.
And I'm going to attach a little cord to them.
And this is able to read if they know what I'm talking about.
And I'm going to go through a number of stories.
I'm going to say, do you know about this, this, this, this, this, this, and this?
And you can watch, in this hypothetical situation, you can watch this machine.
Show no reading whatsoever.
Nothing.
Just nothing.
And Chris Licht or whoever...
I mean, I keep pointing him out because they keep saying he's the one doing it.
Whatever.
You can bring anybody you want from Fox, whatever, and I swear to you, I'll go through 20 things they've never even heard of before.
Why?
Because they're not news people!
They're not news people!
They don't know this.
They're TV people.
They're entertainment people.
They're sales people.
They're promotions people.
They're stockholder people.
They're not news people.
They don't know it.
Now, now, you put somebody on TV who's doing sports, oh, they're sports people.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You better believe they're sports people.
You better believe it.
They know it better than you could ever, ever imagine.
From the guy who answers the phone to the, oh yeah, absolutely.
News doesn't know that.
News doesn't care about that.
Let me tell you another one too.
You got somebody who knows restaurants.
And there's a lot of good people out there.
There's a guy in...
He's been around.
He's very innovative.
His name is David Burke.
He knows restaurants.
He knows about stuff.
He knows the trends.
He's a chef.
He knows how to do it.
He knows.
He knows what's hot.
He knows what's not.
He knows 50 ways to cook bacon.
Things that you've never even thought of before.
He knows it inside and out.
By analogy, a news director will be a guy who did the night manager at a McDonald's.
That's it.
A guy who knows how to fold napkins.
A guy who knows how to answer the phone.
A guy who knows how to take orders.
But knows nothing about food.
Can't cook.
Doesn't know the essence of what's hot, what's not, what's in.
It's the most amazing thing in the world.
In New York City, people were saying, why are delis not doing so well?
There used to be more deli contestants in New York than you can imagine.
A Carnegie, which I always thought was the best.
I had a sandwich in my name.
I'm just saying, during my days of meat.
Cats is probably the only one around.
Really?
I mean, there's some around.
Alright, but why?
Duh!
People don't eat like that anymore.
I mean a few, but things change.
And if you don't see what's happening, you better redo this.
And if some of these places didn't own the building, they'd be out of business.
What I'm trying to say, perhaps circuitously and elliptically, is that whoever was the guy who said, let's put in Fredo or Tater or whoever these people are, it's not about news, it's about politics.
These are people who are going to promote The shtick.
And by the way, the right has it too.
Fox has it.
People don't know what the hell they're talking about.
There are people who are sitting and saying, whatever you do, whatever you do, and here's the test, and I know I'm going to say something, I know people are going to get offended, but I don't really care.
If I had a lie detector, and I could ask somebody, What means more to you?
To have your audience say that you are the most politically or informationally savvy or that you're hot or that you're cool or something like that.
You know who I'm talking about.
And anybody who's Whose button was...
Well, I don't...
Walter Cronkite was Walter Cronkite.
Walter Cronkite didn't care what you thought he looked like or whether he was cool.
What was cool about Walter Cronkite was he was Walter Cronkite.
And young people, people not in my generation before that, or after my generation, they don't know what I'm talking about.
Do you remember what Walter Cronkite was?
Do you remember when news people meant something?
Do you remember that?
Do you remember when...
It's like when I tell people, do you remember what it was like to be a kid?
What?
Do you remember what it was like to drink from a hose?
What?
Do you remember Walter Cronkite?
We don't have these people anymore.
We don't have these people anymore.
I'm telling you.
That's what I want.
And Dan Rather, and I know what you're going to say about Dan Rather.
Dan Rather.
Dan Rather.
Dan Rather was affected after that font gate business.
He really, I mean, they just let him have it.
Bush 41 let him have it.
I mean, memo gate and all.
Oh, he was done, finished.
And he was so crushed from that, he never got over that.
But he cared about being news.
I swear to God.
He was a noose.
He was from that Murrow Boys era.
He was the last of this.
Those are gone.
Those people are gone.
And you know where you're going to have these people?
You ready for this?
Listen to me.
You know where the next people are?
In the world of streaming.
Some of the best actual I was watching one of the best interviews, I'm not going to mention his name, but from somebody who really,
really cared about somebody, who's interviewing somebody, and he's Irish, which I'll tell you what, there's a type of a thing where there's a charade, and your man On January 6th, Mr. Trump, and you could tell the person who was being interviewed was saying, I don't know what you're saying.
But anyway, he was so sincere.
That's what I want!
That's it!
The real, real...
Give me somebody who says, I'll do a Zoom, and I don't even have a picture.
I don't even have a...
I don't even care about my...
I'll just do it with a...
Oh my God!
You really...
You mean it's just about...
Yeah, it's just about the information, not about me.
Oh my God, I'm hiring him on the spot.
I'm hiring you on the spot.
I swear to God.
And the thing that these people don't understand is that there is a...
Oh!
Remember when...
Maybe you do.
Remember when Stevie Van Zandt did Garage Band?
When people broke through?
There were people like my buddy Jerry Wexler and others would bring R&B in and others.
There was a British invasion, but there were other people who came along.
When the Velvet Underground came along and that whole CBGB stuff and the Ramones, somebody had to say Go there.
Do that.
Because it was completely antithetical to regular airplay stuff.
We don't have that.
There's no innovation anymore in news.
None.
None.
I've spoken too much about that.
It goes after my heart.
I heard a talk show the other day that was so good.
Two young kids talking.
It was one of the best things I've ever heard in my life.
And I said, you don't understand what I'm saying.
Because I had the chance.
I said, this is one of the best shows ever because it's so authentic.
One guy was talking about...
How he likes to dip Oreos in coffee.
And it was one of these things that was so compelling.
It was actually conversational.
And some of these gedrools on TV, they couldn't...
There's no life to them.
They're plastic.
But they do hair and makeup.
Or enough with that.
I mentioned this the other day.
Or maybe I didn't, but I'm going to say it again.
I heard, yet again, FDR, the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
Right?
That's not a good imitation, but...
We wouldn't say that today.
You know what we'd say?
You know what we'd say?
Look at this.
Somebody writes something.
It won't be long before drag queens reading the news.
Can I just stop right there?
That may sound like a throwaway comment.
That may sound gratuitous.
That's next.
Absolutely!
As we speak, there's going to be somebody, not a drag queen, but you're going to have the first transitional whatever it is.
Absolutely!
Absolutely!
And by the way, let me just say another thing to you.
very quickly.
And how do I say this?
Well, no, I'm not.
Not for you two.
Listen to me on my private stuff.
I'll go into it differently.
Okay.
I heard the other day the word anxiety and I want to, something comes over me when I hear somebody say, oh, you got anxiety?
I go crazy.
I go berserk.
You got anxiety?
The only anxiety we have today is anxiety.
Is it fear?
No.
What's fear?
Fear.
Americans.
Vietnam veterans.
In the jungle.
The lion sleeps at night.
No.
The fear of life and death.
Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress.
This is from psychiatry.org.
Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress and can be beneficial in some situations.
It can alert us to dangers and help us prepare and pay attention.
Anxiety disorders often differ from normal feelings of nervousness and involve excessive fear or Anxiety.
And fear, by the way, anxiety is intensive, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations.
How about this?
Excessive, unnatural, and wrong.
If you're feeling anxious, go to a doctor.
Do something.
This is not right.
This is not normal.
Because people today are saying, oh no, no, it's normal.
No, it's not normal.
No, it's not.
Absolutely not.
It is not normal.
It is not normal.
There's something wrong with this, especially when you're wallowing in this, especially when you're going out of your way to just exult in this fear, this anxiety.
You love this.
You're loving this.
I've never seen anything like it.
It's the strangest thing I've ever...
What do you say?
People enjoy it.
Oh, I can't even...
I have anxiety.
Okay, really?
What kind of anxiety do you have?
Well, I have a...
Mine's kind of a...
Kind of a global anxiety.
Really?
That's interesting.
Mine's more situation-specific.
Mine's...
Oh, really?
Yeah, it's kind of...
America doesn't fear anything.
America's anxious.
We're not afraid.
We have this persistent, non-specific, kind of an artificial, adopted, we wear it as a fashion.
I'm seeing this all the time.
Americans don't fear anything.
We have no fear.
Think about it.
Oh!
Mrs. L just gave a strict warning.
People have to like this.
274 likes is abysmal.
You have...
You are acting like most people who sit back and just say, entertain me.
I don't do anything back.
I deserve this.
I'm entitled to this.
Go ahead and talk.
I'll say what I want.
Interact how I want.
Support you minimally, marginally.
I'm entitled to this.
Like?
Maybe.
Sort of.
I should start with these people right off the bat.
And I hate that.
When you see a video for the first time, and I don't even know what it's about.
If you like this, would you say something first?
If you like this, subscribe, hit the like button.
I don't even know what this is.
What am I liking you for?
But maybe that's the way to do it.
I don't know.
Maybe that's it.
Okay.
By the way, very quickly, where's BLM?
Anybody know?
Where's BLM?
Honey, where's BLM?
Where'd they go?
I don't see any signs.
They're in Malibu now?
I don't see where the...
I don't see the signs anymore.
I don't see...
What signs do you not see?
Where's Antifa?
Are they gone?
There's no more rioting?
There's no more...
What happened?
What's going on with this?
I don't understand this.
Where are they?
Where did they go?
What happened?
I don't understand this.
This doesn't make any sense to me.
Where did they go?
What are the signs?
How about these signs?
Thank you, first responders.
If I see this now, I say, would you lay off of the first responders?
I'll go, yeah, thanks for the first responders.
But what are you doing?
It's like, that's so old.
Where is this?
Where did those signs go?
How about this?
No hate here.
We believe in science.
Well, thank you so much.
I appreciate it.
I believe in science, too.
You want to talk about science?
About immunology?
No, I don't want to talk about it.
You want to talk about that?
About resistance?
No, I don't want to talk about that.
You sure?
No.
How about this?
I've got a friend of mine.
Who still doesn't know how you get monkeypox.
Still doesn't know.
I said, it's an STD.
What?
There's a vaccine.
There's a vaccine for HPV2, Gardasil.
What does that mean?
Don't you know?
He thinks...
I know him.
I'm not going to say too, too much.
I think he knows who he is if he's watching this.
He thinks everything you get through a mask.
You get a vaccine because you got it in the air.
No!
What do you...
No!
Are you worried about polio?
Polio?
They have no...
My God!
I don't understand where any of this happens.
This is...
This is...
This is the...
This is the thing that I am so fascinated by.
Anyway.
So they don't have BLM.
They don't have...
They're your first responders.
Science here.
We also have these...
I love these things.
I saw this the other day.
There's these...
Have you ever pulled over into a town?
Or you're...
Like you're on...
You know, you're driving and...
You pull off and they have one for Clifton, New Jersey.
Yeah, no stigma?
Is that Clifton?
No stigma?
Because there's other ones.
Oh, no stigma.
Hang on.
City.
Is it West Orange?
What is stigma-free and why are towns embracing it?
I don't even know what that means.
Stigma-free, Madison Borough, New Jersey is stigma-free.
What does that mean?
Stigma, you mean like stigmata?
Remember St. Thomas?
Does thou doubt me now, Thomas?
How about this?
Clifton is the city that cares.
Well, I would hope so.
What?
Residents will feel free to treat a medical disease and mental illness and diabetes.
Wait a minute.
Stigma-free is that when people who...
It says, according to this, people will feel free to seek treatment for mental illness.
Well, does that...
What does that say about your town?
Yeah.
Hey, come to Clifton, New Jersey if you've got mental illness.
This is the city for you.
I don't think, I don't know if that, you know.
I would say, Clifton, New Jersey, where indifference is more than a saying.
What?
I wish somebody would go, what?
And then crash into something.
What does this mean?
This is so nuts.
This is just, what does, nobody cares about this.
Here's the best part.
Nobody.
Nobody.
Unbelievable.
We live in a world of insanity.
And by the way, Blasio Domingo, don't buy the green bananas.
Nobody's talking about that at all.
That is huge!
Ghislaine, gone.
Blasio Domingo, gone.
Yeah, next thing I'm going, nobody cares about this.
And here's the thing, if you're 81 years old, and you're at the top of some human trafficking thing, oh, anything can happen to you, and nobody will look.
Look at Nino Scalia.
He's in some Illuminati hunting lodge wearing a green cape.
They find a pillow on his head, nobody cares.
Well, he was old.
Was it that old?
Well, he was fat.
Don't you want to...
Don't you want to do a...
Nah, no reason for an autopsy.
Even his family.
Nah, it's okay.
On the phone.
Yeah, okay.
This is the weirdest thing ever.
This is the strangest thing ever.
And by the way, I noticed something on Fox Nation or something.
They said, the Masons.
The Masons?
Are they conspiracies?
You want to talk about something, Fox Nation?
You want to talk about...
No, no.
No, no, no.
I'll pick the subjects for you.
You're still rehashing the Masons?
And whether there's some Illuminati...
Oh my God!
UFOs.
Do they exist?
It is.
358 likes.
Unbelievable.
Alright.
So my friends, here's another way to like us.
Remember, there it is right there.
There's the PayPal feature for Lionel Nation.
Give until you're hurt.
Give until you're hurt.
And by the way, why are you saving for your kids' college?
We could use it more.
I mean, after all, this takes a lot of effort.
One hour every single day of my life I give you.
Does that seem fair?
Well, uncompensated?
Not to mention, this is my...
What is it right now?
We've got...
A week from today, guess whose birthday it is?
I live for you.
I live for you.
Okay, don't forget preparewithlinel.com.
Prepare with Lionel.
We got the biggest sale since 2019.
Prepare with Lionel.
And my good friend, mypillow.com.
Promo code Lionel.
And Mike Lindell.
And I mean that sincerely.
I mean that sincerely.
And also, Mrs. L. Got the best.
She has...
Huh?
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't think...
I think Mrs. L scares people.
I really do.
Because I don't think people want to talk about...
It's kind of better if they don't know about what's happening to kids.
Until it happens to their kids, that's right.
Anyway, Linz underscore Warriors, Twitter, that's it right there.
And also go to her YouTube channel at Linz Warriors.
And that's about it.
I hope everybody has a great day today.
Remember, learn new words every single day.
Convey to your children, convey to your friends the ability to speak and to know.
A word is like a new color.
It's a new way to express yourself.
And words are free.
They're absolutely free.
So do that.
And if you have to learn...
I mean, one day I'm going to put...
Somebody said, why don't you put together a vocabulary book?
I said, just learn a music.
No, it's right.
Anyway, thank you, my friends.
Have a great and a glorious day.
Thank you so much for not only what you are, but for what you appear to do, or to be, rather, and to do.
The monkey's dead.
The show's over.
Sue ya.
