Getting America to Care

Empathy is defined as the identification (psychological or emotional) with the thoughts, feelings and attitudes of others. This is the first trait to be quashed if tyranny is to flourish.

First, first, first, let me begin by saying to everyone who wished me goodness yesterday a thank you.
From the bottom of my proverbial heart, whatever that expression means, I'm not really sure, but you know what it means.
I thank you for that.
Your kindness, your...
just your good wishes make all of this so, so worthwhile.
We are, I think, a family.
completely different than anything that's available today.
And whether you're listening right now for the first time live on our morning episode, whether you were listening to this later, whether you're listening to it on Spotify or...
Oh yeah, we're on Spotify now, and Apple, and podcasts, and all of that.
It's a very interesting mixed kind of medium.
It's video and it's audio.
I know.
Something different.
Before we were on, I was putting the final touches on my individual, my private channel, LionelMedia.com.
And I was putting up some music that was just so terrific and so, so great.
And I was looking at some of the lyrics from Doug Engel from Iron Butterfly, one of my favorite albums, Metamorphosis, 1970.
And I defy you to find lyrics like this.
They are like nothing I've ever seen.
They almost don't make sense, and they do make sense.
They're put together, not necessarily to convey a thought, though they do, but to put a word in.
To make the sound presentation complete.
It's hard to explain.
That's what I want to do.
I want to give you something different today.
I don't mind telling you, and I don't mind saying this to you, I find most stuff boring.
I find most people extremely tedious, and at best, marginally, marginally interesting.
I find everything that we see today, you name it, name what we hear, I say, that's okay.
It's like having the world's worst buffet.
And I kind of like the garnish more than I do the actual thing.
I'm sorry, it's the way I am.
Sorry.
What many, many people consider to be so interesting, I find to be, it's like, you missed the point.
That's not the point.
That stinks.
That's rotten.
That's not it.
And it's not because I'm better.
Well, maybe it is.
But that's not my intention.
My point is that's not the issue.
It's boring.
How many times do you want to hear people talk about redacted documents?
They're not getting to the point.
What is this about, Alfie?
What is this about?
Explain this.
We're going to be talking about that.
The Joe Rogan-Zuck thing missed the point.
What a work that was.
Missed the point!
Missed it!
And we're going to talk about something that's being presented in schools, which I promise you, you've never thought about.
And finally, one of the best, well not finally, we might have more time.
Network TV is dead.
How long have I been telling you this?
How long has Mrs. L been telling you this?
NBC is going to be giving off primetime real estate.
Here, take it to local channels.
Why?
Because they want to go into streaming!
It's dead!
It's dead!
I'm telling you!
It's dead!
We'll talk about that.
But first of all, I want to say to you, thank you again for your kindness.
And if you believe in supporting what we do, understand that for reasons I will never be able to understand, we have been demonetized.
You understand that?
We have been told you cannot earn money on your work.
For reasons I don't understand, we've never been given an indictment, a charging instrument, an affidavit, a bill of particulars, no due process.
What is it that I do?
Well, what did you do?
Imagine the police officer pulling you over and saying, I pulled you over for something, and then throwing the statute book at you.
Well, figure it out.
Figure out what you did, and that's it.
It doesn't work like that, but that's the way it is right now, and what are you going to do?
It's a wonderful, it's a marvelous medium, and it's terrific, and it's great, and it's wonderful, and I appreciate it.
But if you want to support what we're doing, you go right now.
Go to that.
Look, look, look and see on this description page right now of YouTube.
Look and see for yourself all of those individual particular...
Platforms.
From PayPal to Venmo to Cash App to...
I think that's it.
Bitcoin.
The whole schmear.
So thank you for that.
And I also want to tell you, this is extremely critical right now.
I don't know how long they're going to do it.
MyPatriotSupplies and PrepareWithLionel.com is doing something they have not done in three years.

I don't.
PreparewithLionel.com Thank you.
I'm going to start in no particular order with something that I want to tell you, which I guarantee you have not thought about.
And the reason why you have not thought about it is because when it comes to matters regarding children in particular, and when it comes to children and people and kids and stuff, we don't really level with folks.
And let me tell you what I read today with horror, in a sense of horror.
And it was a piece that says...
Where is this?
Where the hell is this?
They are now talking about...
They are talking about instituting...
Corporal punishment spanking in schools.
I don't know where the hell this thing went.
It was somewhere.
It was up on Drudge for a while.
But anyway, what are you going to do?
Now let me just explain something to you.
And I want to tell you the absolute truth and we're going to listen to this and we're going to focus on the truth and we're going to put all of our usual predisposition and predilections and take all of our Shibboleths and phrases and things that we do.
These trite little aphorisms and these things that you spare their eyes, spoil the child.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Okay?
Okay.
Number one.
You do not hit children.
Okay?
Let me start off with this premise.
You do not hit children.
You do not hit children.
You don't hit children.
You don't hit them.
Call it discipline.
Call it spanking.
Call it corporal punishment.
Call it spare the rod, spoil the child.
Call it whatever you want.
You don't do that.
They don't understand this.
Little kids, whatever.
And if they have any kind of an emotional disability or problem, you've got an even bigger problem.
Why are you yelling?
Is this the way you handle things?
That's the way.
Don't do that!
Don't do...
Do you hear what's going on?
You think that's good?
Now, people love this.
Now, let me stop right now for a second and just say this.
I, in no way, in no wise, am suggesting, am recommending, am even hinting, even hinting, that the government or anybody should interfere with a parent who is disciplining their child.
In some particular instances, it has worked.
And I'm not going to argue that point.
I believe in parental autonomy, parental primacy, parental authority.
And if you believe, if you believe that this is in your child's best interest and you're not causing physical damage, I don't know about psychic, I'm sorry, but I do not want the government involved in that.
I may not like it.
I may not prefer it.
I may advocate against it.
But I don't want the government involved in that.
Just like I do not like, I do not want, I do not care for abortion, the termination of pregnancies.
I don't want that, but I don't want the government to tell a woman you can't do that.
Period.
And I don't like, I don't like the death penalty.
However, there's nothing in the Constitution that prevents it.
And what I just told you seems like seemingly incongruent, Kind of inconsistent edicts, but they're not at all.
Not even remotely like that.
Okay?
You understand what I'm saying?
Okay, good.
Now I'm going to try to do something here, and I just spent some time at LionelMedia.com going into great detail, very, very graphic detail, which I do not believe is best served on social media platforms.
But I'm going to try my best to speak to you clinically and as an adult.
And giving you something that I know you have not considered.
I know you haven't.
And it's something that I just know it.
Because we don't get into it.
And we don't have time for it.
And when it comes time to get into matters that are a little bit deeper, well, that's a problem.
First of all, I want to talk about your particular world.
Your idea.
Your...
Sense of excitation.
I don't want to say kink, but what you are about.
As you know.
As you know.
We are not subject to estrus cycles.
We are not subject to heat cycles.
We don't work that way.
As humans.
We have a cortical cerebral or cerebral Our excitation levels are as complicated and as diverse and as patchwork mosaic as you can imagine.
There are associations of things that happen, and especially when it comes to innocent children and their particular sensitivities.
What you do to a child young can forever Change and rewire, refocus something that is irreparably changed.
What do I mean by that?
Let me explain.
In the brain, you're...
In fact, this was wonderfully mapped out as far as...
Did you ever hear of phantom brain?
Did you ever hear of phantom brain?
I'm sorry.
Phantom limb.
Excuse me.
Sometimes phantom brain.
That's Joe Biden.
Phantom limb.
This is when you still feel pain in your arm.
That is gone.
That is missing.
And there was a wonderful Indian.
I do not.
I could not tell you his name.
But he came up with this wonderful therapy using mirrors.
False mirrors where people looked and they saw in this mirror.
What appeared to be an arm, but it was the other arm.
Anyway, it changed everything.
There's no arm there.
They lost it.
Through amputation, it's gone.
But yet, they feel something.
Why?
Because of the wiring.
Because of this unique wiring in the brain.
And they can actually touch your skin here, here, here, and go up your arm and actually map it in the brain where it is.
Okay.
As you know, in The parts of the body.
Genitourinary.
Pudendal.
You got it?
You understand what I'm saying?
That whole apparatus.
I'm trying to speak YouTube speak.
I don't want people to get upset.
I don't want algorithms to go crazy.
I'm trying to speak to you as an adult.
But as you know, that particular area hits the brain, let's say, here.
Around that area, in addition to that particular area, there is your buttocks, glutes, backside, legs, and right around that area too, very close, innervating, connected to the brain, which is very, very similar to that.
Very, very close in terms of propinquity and location.
Okay.
When you take a child, and they are, first of all, from strangers, but you take something, this beautiful, precious, very malleable child.
Precious.
A lot of bad things have not been laid down.
You want to get your kid through.
Childhood and maybe around adolescence, maybe around puberty, then you hope that enough of that foundation is there.
But prior to that, what are you doing?
You're taking a child and you're having an adult, a stranger, or somebody else for the matter, yelling at them.
Now write all these down.
Yelling.
Loud.
Force.
Hitting.
What happens if your brain takes that hitting and records it as stimulation?
It's very confusing because it's marked, it's affecting, it's firing in the part of the brain which is adjacent to this area.
Genital urinary.
There might be a sexual component to something inadvertently, which you are creating, which you are wiring, you are hardwiring.
You're doing this.
You're making a connection.
This is classic, classic conditioning.
This is Pavlovian.
Unconditioned stimulus, conditioned stimulus, boom!
So what are you doing?
And, and, third component, Let's assume during the course of this, during the course of this, quote, discipline, there's a moment of titillation.
There's some confusion or something that is later on remembered, recollected, filed away as titillation.
You have just created what could very well be a fetish.
You have just could have created something.
Where you are taking this child who is unable to understand this and that and this and you're putting together loud and disciplined and yelling and screaming with something which is titillating all in the name of punishment where perhaps punishment becomes something that is looked to, yearned to because you remember it.
Do you know why babies cry?
It's very interesting.
They were looking at, I remember years ago, reading about circumcision.
It's a very, very, very touchy, no pun intended, issue in children, males.
And the idea was that, does this cause pain?
Does this cause pain?
Is pain a newborn?
Is there pain?
Interestingly enough, they looked at cortisol levels, they looked at all of the various levels indicating pain, but what they found was, this is very interesting, and I'll never forget this, what they found was that a child is unable sometimes to integrate, to say, oh, I know what this is.
For example, if you go like this to a child, start crying.
If you go like this, start crying.
It doesn't know what this is.
What is this?
Is it pain?
Is it confusion?
Is it overreaction?
What is it?
It's not integrated.
I don't know what this is.
You know what pain is.
Because you're an adult.
If I go like that, hey!
I don't like that.
But if you're a baby, a blanket could be problematic.
The light, the noise, the sound, the cold, swaddling, remind.
Think about this.
Keep them compressed.
So, we as adults sometimes look at things and we don't understand what a child is thinking.
This goes back to developmental and that sort of thing.
So, what I'm trying to say, my friends, is that there are people today who have had events happen to them, seemingly innocuous, seemingly matter of fact, where some children, eh, no big deal, but others have been irreparably Irrevocably and permanently affected by something.
And I promise you, you have never been told that.
I promise you, you have never been told that.
What is happening to kids today, what is happening today to their innocence, to their regular development Self-esteem.
Let me ask you a question.
Do you still, to this day, as an adult, suffer from self-esteem issues where your father, usually your father, never told you he loved you?
Where you never felt special?
You never felt unique and treasured and blessed?
Never.
And you're 70 years old today, or 68, or 34, and you still, you still have self-concept issues.
You still are, you're unsure.
As a kid, did you ever have, were you the product of a divorce?
Were you have abandonment issues?
When you as a child said, I want there to be, I need a father, I want there to be a father, male or female, in order to understand this connection, father placement, father positioning, how do I fit in this world vis-a-vis men?
These are things which nobody even thinks about.
And when kids, especially these people who all, All of this stuff, these people who talk about masculinity, in terms of a kid saying, hey, look at me, I eat red meat and salt, and I've got a girlfriend that I work out.
That's not it.
That is so base.
That's what you think it is?
That's it?
That's it?
Freud would say, who is this?
Who is this?
This is an idiot.
That's what this is.
That's where we are today.
That's what we think it is.
We believe in general.
We're big on pronouns.
By the way, you notice how nobody's talking about pronouns anymore?
It's gone.
Notice that?
Gone.
Pronouns.
There goes another Jordan Peterson topic.
What?
No more pronouns.
What am I going to talk about?
Okay.
Listen to what I'm saying.
Your ability.
Your ability to focus.
When you're a kid.
Just understand.
Mom.
Dad.
Mother.
Father.
And girls in particular.
Girl.
Father.
Attention.
How do I fit in?
Where do men fit in my life?
What does a mother mean to me?
We're talking about hard wiring that cannot even be remotely remotely discussed understood deconstructed it goes far far deeper than some tattooed guy in a gym with a thick rope Doing curls.
That's not it.
That's not what we're talking about.
The idea of mother.
This is the first connection you have with a human being that transcends anything you've ever seen.
Biochemically, spiritually, you and your mother were one.
I mean, it's wild.
And that's why when a mother loses a child, you can't...
I don't think anybody gets that.
I don't think anybody gets that.
When a twin loses a twin, there are things that we don't know.
And what do we do?
If you try to find this, go to social media today.
Try to find this.
Find it.
Can you give somebody...
Talking about my hot girlfriend.
That's being male to them.
What does being female mean?
What does this mean?
We talk about gender all the time.
We never even talk about it.
What does this mean?
What I'm suggesting right now involves a level of understanding and depth and investigation that nobody has time for.
Because you're in a hurry.
You're in your car.
You want to run.
You need somebody to come real quick and say, I've got that.
Now, more importantly, more importantly, when you take a child and you mess with that child in terms of self-esteem, you can screw up a kid and not even lay a hand on them.
You can screw up a kid and have them just by virtue of your indifference.
Sometimes kids are very sensitive.
Sometimes they're not.
Sometimes they're more durable.
Kids are born certain ways.
But when you mess with their, when you lay the groundwork for later on, sexual dysfunction later on, by virtue of your disciplining them, I'm going to discipline!
Without understanding, do you know what you're doing?
Do you know where you're hitting people?
What are you doing?
I don't know.
My father hit me.
I'm okay.
Are you sure about that?
That's my favorite.
I'm okay.
You're okay?
You're the exemplar of this?
Why?
Is that it?
Is that what you're saying?
You're telling me that somewhere along the way you would have never understood anything unless somebody hit you?
What are you, stupid?
Are you a mule?
Is that it?
Is that what you're saying?
Well, I don't know.
I just...
I guess I don't know any better.
That's right.
You don't know any better.
What are you doing?
The stuff that we do to kids.
Oh my God.
How many of you were told this?
Finish your plate.
Why?
Now you're taking food and you're using it almost as a punishment.
Finish your plate.
Eat.
Not let food not rule you.
Let food Not control.
You eat when you're hungry.
We suggest this is a good idea.
You might want to try that!
You're not getting up until you finish.
I've heard this.
What about this?
Go to bed without eating.
You know, no dessert for you.
Food is now the punishment.
Food is a...
You're going to go to bed without your supper?
What?
What are you doing?
Watch the way they did it for me.
Look at you.
Look at you.
You've had weight problems your whole life.
You've never been able to regulate the notion of eating and stopping when you're full.
Because food to you is satiety.
Food to you is comfort.
Food to you is sexual.
Food to you is everything.
Look at you.
Look at you.
You're doing the same thing to your kid.
Did you ever think about having a kid?
No.
Did you ever think?
Why are you doing this?
Why are you doing this?
You know what the best thing you can do for your kid is?
Have them just look at you when you're normal.
You come home and you say, here I am.
Here I am.
You may not go to every, you know, baseball game or whatever.
I mean, that's great.
Don't get me wrong.
But you're there.
And you tell the kid, I love you.
I love you.
And you know what?
You may drive me crazy, but I love you and you're a good kid and I'm proud of you.
That's it.
Let your kids see mom and dad doing whatever.
And even if mom and dad aren't together, they're very resilient.
But you don't do anything, anything to disrupt them.
I go into greater detail.
Don't spank.
Ask anybody now.
Let me say this very quickly.
I went into greater detail.
There are people that I know, and this is something I do not understand.
I do not understand this.
I swear to you, if somebody said, you know, this guy had a problem, well, you know, he's a...
He's got a substance abuse problem.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
What happened?
Well, you know, was it worse?
Okay, okay.
Not good, but at least I can say, alright, I kind of understand it.
I got it.
Here's the one I don't understand.
Here's what I don't understand at all.
Baby, you can help me with this one.
Because I don't get this one.
When people are, they have jobs that are really, really They pay well.
And they insist upon taking their own particular predilections for amour and they start going after employees, secretaries,
interns, or they're famous and they're out and they're They do stuff that's just crazy.
Especially when they're famous.
I don't understand this.
Why did you do this?
Listen to what I'm saying.
Listen carefully.
Are you ready?
There is a portion of psychopathy involved.
What do I mean by that?
I'm not saying they're psychopaths.
People think psychopaths means you're a killer.
I don't mean that.
I mean that you We're unable to appreciate consequence.
Especially when it comes to matters of your I like her.
I like him.
I want him now.
I want him to feel me violating their space.
I kind of want to see a little bit of fear.
I want to see a notion of I want to overpower them.
You know how many people have lost everything because of that?
I don't understand it.
I do understand it, but I don't understand why somebody would...
You think somebody would say, listen, I'm going to wait until I go back to the hotel and you can...
There are more people who would say, I don't understand it.
Whether it's Andrew Cuomo, whether...
Who knows?
I don't understand this.
There are people lining up, but they don't want that.
And what do you think happens?
Somewhere along the line.
In their development, what became part and parcel of their appreciation of matters of the flesh is the overpowering.
That's what it's about.
It's the idea that something is overpowered.
I want to see that look in your face when you say, I don't know what to do.
Remember when...
When I heard Andrew Cuomo, the women were describing, what it was like when he would, like, touch them and they would, like, tremble.
They were scared as the governor.
He loved that!
He loved that!
He doesn't want somebody who's equal to him.
He doesn't want somebody on the same level.
No!
Don't you see what that is?
This is about power differential.
And when you take kids, I'm going back to what I said, and you start spanking them early, and you create for the rest of their life.
When you can say, I can't believe it.
But you know what?
I have to either be abused or abuse or do something or else I'm not happy.
And I'm going to leave it at that.
I went into much greater detail naming a lot of names and being very specific about this.
But be careful.
Be careful.
When I see people, kids at nude beaches and things like this, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
You make sure they understand you treat them with the most pristine kid gloves ever.
Okay, leave it at that.

It's kind of who you are.

I'm sorry.
I just don't want to do anything to dissuade you from believing that the people that you love so much are so great.
And I'll be the first one to tell you that I think Joe Rogan is one of the great...
He has completely changed the entire framework of...
Of news and information and news platforms.
He is without a doubt critical, critical, critical, critical, critical.
And the question that I have is very simply this.
Do you think for one minute that there was an expose with Mark Zuckerberg?
Are you out of your mind?
Do they think you're a judul, an idiot?
Do they, do they, seriously, do they expect you to believe that that meant something?
Do you think for a moment that anybody, excuse me, am I going to miss the fact that Zuckerberg says, yeah, and the FBI came in and they told us, excuse me, excuse me, are you getting off the hook, Zuck?
Lock that door.
You're not getting out of here.
Do you think you're getting off the hook?
Why didn't you do something?
Why didn't you say, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm Mark Zuckerberg.
You're not going to believe this.
Why don't you put a big sign up on Facebook that says, you're not going to believe this.
The FBI came to my office and told me that I had to go light on this Hunter Biden thing because of the election, because of Russian collusion.
Excuse me, the FBI?
You're telling me to what?
This is prior restraint?
Did he do that?
Uh-uh.
You're kidding me.
You're kidding me.
And when Joe Rogan should have said, excuse me, what was that?
You didn't report this?
You've got a bully pulpit like nobody's business.
You can say, excuse me, the FBI is telling me I'm not going to do that.
Hey, Zuckerberg, what happens if the FBI comes in and says, I want this guy's information?
Have you done that before?
What if the FBI says, hey, listen.
Rather than us going through and getting a warrant, we want you to turn the microphone on on this guy's Facebook account because we need to get some poop on this.
And by the way, Zuckerberg, have you done anything about child predation?
Oh, we've done that.
See, Joe Rogan could have said, I've got a research team.
Oh, my God.
He could have let this...
He could have just sat there and squirmed.
And by the way, you notice how Joe Rogan...
Zuckerberg and Jared Kushner look alike.
They've got this flat affect, this weird, almost like animatronic CGI.
What is this?
What is this?
Now look, Joe Rogan's probably thinking, I'm not going to screw this deal up for anything.
Even Joe was doing a bit of a tap dance.
Remember before when he goes, hey, sorry about COVID.
Just kidding.
Hey!
Hey!
He's great when he's talking about, you know, LSD and psilocybin and licking frogs and I used to love when he and Joey Diaz used to F this, F and F, F, F and the polar bears and the F-ing, F-ing, F polar bears and the F-ing UFOs and the F, F, F, F, F. Oh my God, if you love F, oh, you'll just...
It's their oxygen.
They can't get through a sentence without it because that's a part of being cool.
You want cats and booze and cigars and every vile comic?
God bless him!
He's not going to ruin that gig for nothing.
Come on!
Then when Neil Young, remember Neil Young came along and said, Hey, I'm going to pull my...
What happened to that one?
How you doing there, Neil?
How's your catalog?
And Nils Lofgren came along.
Remember that one?
Oh, please.
Listen, that's what it is.
And I think it's great.
And nobody asked, nobody told Joe Rofgren, hey, listen, you're going to be the, you know, the Walter Cronk.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm just doing my gig, and I like it.
I'm telling you, I think he's the most...
I think he is the most powerful, probably most well-known, at least here, might surpass Alex Jones over a while.
I don't know.
It's hard to say.
But what was that interview?
Excuse me.
Hold it.
Joe.
Pardon me, Joe.
Put the cigar down.
Just for a second.
He just told you the FBI came to him.
Now, Joe, what are you going to ask him next?
You're going to hold him to the...
You're going to ask Zuckerberg?
Wait a minute, what?
Why are you only telling us now here?
If I didn't ask you, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
You're a publicly traded corporate, right?
And the FBI told you?
And you haven't said anything about this?
And by the way, while we're on this subject, let's talk about, and I spend far greater detail, and I have got the research.
Can we talk about...
Child predation on social media platforms?
And yours as well?
What?
No way!
It was the biggest joke I've ever heard in my life.
And nobody got it.
Even...
I can't believe this!
Andrew McCarthy!
Andrew McCarthy!
Why, he slammed him.
Listen to me.
And listen good.
This is the simplest.
Joe, I don't know why I've got to tell you this.
Joe, you're a smart guy.
You had on, oh, what's his name?
The astronomer.
What's his name?
It's very interesting.
Ask him, why did you sit out for a while?
Another one.
Remember that one?
Remember Neil deGrasse Tyson?
How come you sat out?
Oh, okay.
Fine, whatever.
It's okay.
See, it's that power thing.
You know, I'm a powerful guy.
Alright, fine.
I got it.
I don't understand what's going on here.
I don't understand what's going on here.
Just one second.
Hang on a second.
hang on a minute Okay.
Excuse me.
This is the question.
Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
Remember this one?
Remember this?
Section 230.
Do you remember this?
Section 230.
Shall I go through this to you?
Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
Says, no provider or user of interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided.
You're not the publisher.
And the reason why, Mr. Zuckerberg, we are not going to hold you responsible for this.
The reason why we're not going to hold you responsible.
For what is said.
And the reason why you're going to enjoy this immunity from lawsuits.
Let me explain something.
Joe Rogan doesn't have immunity from lawsuits.
I don't have any.
Nobody does.
It's the weirdest thing.
It's like having a pharmaceutical company that you can't sue for people who are harmed by virtue of your substance.
Imagine that.
Absolutely no interest whatsoever in anybody making sure things are safe if I can't get sued.
If I can't get sued, if I have immunity, I don't care if anybody gets hurt on my product.
But anyway, that's beside the point.
Mr. Zuckerberg, you're saying right now, let me get this straight, that you are not a publisher, that you are just...
A publisher is somebody who has a say as to certain things.
A publisher has a say as to what is and isn't provided.
You're claiming in the old days that we're the internet.
I can't monitor what people say.
I'm like a billboard company.
I just put up a billboard.
Whatever people put up, I'm not.
Do you understand what's happening here?
Do you recognize what's happening here?
Do you see what's happening?
Do you see where we are right now?
This is the thing which I don't understand.
This is the most critical story right now.
This is the idea which is very simple to the fact that you're claiming that you you have no say in what is and isn't Provided.
But the FBI told you?
The FBI told you what you were going to do?
And you're telling people that they can't put in comments about various therapeutics, whether it's ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine, or whether it was denying...
That's fine.
Denying...
You're claiming all of this?
Is that what you're saying?
So you're claiming, let me get this straight, that you have no say, but yet all these people were limited, and now you're saying that the FBI told you what you couldn't...
I don't understand this.
How long do you think people...
Why do you have this immunity?
Why do you have this immunity?
Why can you not be sued?
When in fact you do nothing but publish, you do nothing but edit, you do nothing but censor.
That's what you do.
And you mean to tell me that when people, a couple of times they were actually tortured and you had live videos of people being tortured and kidnapped and you said, we have no idea.
You mean to tell me, and there's no, and this goes for everybody in the world of social media, you have no algorithms to see when children Are the subject of predation?
You mean?
Are you kidding me?
You're telling me that you still deserve Section 230 immunity?
Come on!
Nobody!
Nobody!
This is a joke!
And you know who's even more responsible?
The people on TV.
Because they took this as, oh, the FBI...
Told people to be quiet regarding Hunter Biden.
Yeah, I know that.
Okay.
Keep going a little bit further.
Well, we're not interested in going further.
And by the way, all those big...
Remember Josh Hawley?
Remember that big mouth?
And Ted Cruz?
Remember that?
And we're going to bring all these people.
Jack Dorsey.
And we're going to bring in...
We're going to bring all these people in.
All these people.
We're going to bring all these people in.
Remember that?
Remember that?
Oh, we're going to tear them a new one.
You didn't do anything.
So do me a favor.
And by the way, do me a favor, please.
Joe, Zuckerberg, he's brilliant.
He came in on your show and you didn't even have any research?
I mean, seriously.
Come on, man.
Stop lying.
If he'd have said, look, it's the FBI, if they tell us what to do, that's the way we do it.
Somebody brought up right now, for example, Operation Mockingbird.
Do you remember the Mockingbird media?
Do you remember what this is?
Do you remember Washington Post, Phil Graham?
Do you remember any of that?
Where has everybody been?
I know this isn't as funny, as interesting, as licking frogs and doing psilocybin and drugs.
And I appreciate that.
And that's funny and stuff too.
But this joke...
See, everybody is...
They love to tell you that they stand for something.
Like Fox News.
They hate Trump.
They can't stand Trump.
And they are setting up Tucker Carlson for the biggest fall ever.
And you know who wants him gone?
The people who used to be number one.
You know that's coming.
You're being sold a line of goods that's not even funny.
But you knew that.
So, here's my problem.
I don't fit in anywhere!
I don't fit in.
None of these people have said they're not even...
There's like nobody even remotely, remotely on target enough of the time.
And let me also tell you something, which is the most important.
And nobody wants to hear this.
President Trump is an idiot.
He does these things.
Do me a favor.
Get off that golf course.
Stop showing pictures of yourself playing golf all the time.
America can't relate to that.
If you want people...
If you want people to re-elect you, which I'm not so sure about, then I don't care about some Ukrainian who slips through.
Who cares about that?
We have a guy who doesn't know where he is who slipped through to be president.
So that happens.
But do you think Trump really wants to be president?
I don't know.
He wants to play golf all the time.
He wants to hit that ball around all the time.
That's it.
That's it.
There are people right now, there are Republicans who love you no matter what you do.
I'm telling you this again for a million times.
There are people who, the Republicans love you no matter what you do.
Okay?
No matter what you do, they love you.
They love you no matter what.
Great.
Then there are other people who hate you no matter what.
They're not going to vote for you.
But there's this group in the middle.
Some of them can be poached from the left.
Some of them can be cajoled and wheedled and persuaded, independent and uncommitted.
And they want to see a guy act like a president.
And Ron DeSantis is running rings around you.
Now, Ron DeSantis, they're going to eat his lunch if he even gets near them.
Shadow government said he won't even know what hit him.
He'll be so neutralized so fast.
And the reason why is because he's so politically smart.
He understands it.
Because he's been a governor.
He knows how this thing works.
See, the good part about Trump is his genius is that he's ever been a politician, so he does things that are kind of stupid but kind of smart at the same time.
Now, I don't know what to tell you, and I don't know how to say this in any way other than this.
Start acting like a president!
And let me also tell you something, and listen to me and listen good.
There is a prima facie case that could be made for what he did in violating the law.
Let me say this again.
There is a prima facie case.
There is an initial showing that you could say to have probable cause that says you violated some presidential act or whatever.
And don't give me this declassify because even if you declassify it doesn't mean you can have supposed codes around or whatever it is.
Now just forget what Morning Joe and all these people say about nuclear colds.
Just forget about this.
These people are so still upset over the fact that they got married and nobody cared.
Joe Scarborough and his wife thought that they would be the toast of Washington and they would be America's sweetheart.
Never since Ben Bradley, by the way, born yesterday.
Never since Ben Bradley and Sally Quinn did American sweethearts.
No, it never happened.
Plus they were trying to Petitioned Trump for...
When they thought there would be some kind of Trump media thing, they were there, Trump Tower all the time, and then Trump told them, pound sand, and...
Okay.
So, yeah.
There is something to be said.
There is something to be said for the fact that some of these documents were improperly, or the case could be made, that they were improperly taken.
I'm sorry.
You know, whether it's the General Services or GSA, I don't know.
I don't know.
But that's not the issue.
That's not the issue.
And the best part is, I love when these people come out who hate, this is my favorite, and I've got to say this very carefully, but I...
On my own channel, I'm very specific.
When you come out and you point fingers as to how stupid Trump was to do this stuff, and you yourself lived this stupid, debauched life, don't tell me about how stupid he is.
That's all I want to say.
I can tell you.
Because he does stuff sometimes.
I don't understand.
But Trump is not going to be selling nuclear codes to anybody anytime.
And what he did may have been negligent, and maybe not.
But the bottom line is this, and listen carefully.
If this was Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, nobody would have done anything.
They have discretion.
They're showing no discretion.
This is not the end of the world.
They didn't have to do this.
They didn't have to do this.
Mr. President, hi.
My name is, yes.
Mark is absent from, yes.
DOJ.
Mr. President.
I don't know how to tell you this, but please, we've got to get these documents back.
We took 15 boxes, and lo and behold, I know.
Look, we don't want to cause any problems.
We're going to record you the same courtesy we showed Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, who had servers in her home.
Do I have to remind you of that?
It's called discretion.
That's why it is.
It's called discretion.
It's called discretion.
And if, if they do not charge him with anything...
Oh, oh, and one more thing.
Please, please, please, please, please.
How could I forget?
Listen carefully.
Guess which statute they're looking to charge him with.
The same one his DOJ charged Edward Snowden and Julian Assange with.
Espionage.
How do you like them apples?
Julian Assange is a journalist.
And I don't like Julian Assange.
I'm no fan.
But what he did has nothing to do with whether I like him or not.
And Edward Snowden, he's Albert.
They charged them with espionage.
Same thing you're being charged with.
It's ridiculous.
So here's the problem.
You've got Trump acting.
I don't know what he's doing.
I don't know.
I don't know who his lawyers are.
I don't know.
Have you seen his lawyers?
Have you seen these lawyers?
He has?
Who are these people?
Can he get no one?
I mean, no one?
I guess nobody.
I don't understand this.
They don't have to do this.
They're trying to embarrass him.
But here's the thing.
If they don't charge him with a crime, he can't go to a court and say, hey, your affidavit was improper.
By the way, the redaction?
Oh, please.
Was that funny or what?
That was funny.
Here, I'll show you.
I'll give you the epidemic.
There's nothing there.
Anyway.
The court's going to say, did they charge anything?
No.
Do you want to seize this?
Do you want to give it back?
I'm sorry, Mr. President, are you asking that this be returned to you?
That these are your documents?
What do you want?
If they never charge him with a crime...
Which I really don't think they are.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
None of this is working.
Remember the J6 stuff, January 6th?
What happened to that?
I don't know.
What happened to that?
I don't know.
What about Liz Cheney?
I don't know.
A couple of people went to prison.
What was that about?
I don't know.
They got him two times with the impeachment.
They got him on this.
Nothing.
The president must be on his own TV station.
I'm saying this for the millionth time.
I'm getting so tired of this.
I'm going to do it again for the millionth in the world for the first time.
Get off of your behind, put the golf clubs down, and do me a favor and stop this nonsense.
Go on and start talking to people.
Give us a world view.
Don't go on truth social.
We don't have truth.
Not everybody's on truth social.
Get on TV.
Have your own channel.
Your own thing.
Whatever.
Talk to people.
I want to hear from you.
I don't want to see you going like this, playing golf.
Hey!
What is this?
Say something.
Give us a world view.
Talk about what you're going to do.
About America.
A thousand points of light.
A new morning in America.
A city on the hill.
Whatever you want.
Do something.
Alright, that's enough.
That's enough.
