All right, my friend.
Now, let me see if you can handle what's happening today.
I'm sure you can.
Because you're a smart person.
You can do this.
You're a very smart person.
That's why you're here.
And you're going to be invariably offended at what I tell you today.
Because I don't like anybody.
I don't like anything.
I don't like anybody.
Any show.
Any person.
Any news perspective.
I might.
I might.
You don't tolerate more than others, but you are living in a world of complete and total misinformation, the likes of which you can't even decipher.
Do you know what it is like?
Do you know what it is like when I tell you right now that absolutely nothing is being accomplished?
And I am the only person, let me see if I can say this to you.
And I'm saying this not as, oh, I'm the smartest person here.
I'm not saying that.
I don't think you have to say that, but I'm not saying that.
And that came out wrong, or did it?
What I'm telling you is simply this.
What I'm telling you.
Is that if I was on, I'll give you an example, the biggest purportedly conservative show, and I love this, and you know what I'm talking about.
Oh, you love to believe this, you know, this Goliath Fox News, and it is the biggest show there is.
so But what it does, and what everybody does, is to forget the following.
And I'm going to tell you, very simply this.
If I had my way, and I ran, if I had something as big as Fox or as big as Breitbart or whoever it was, every single show, every show would be this.
Today we have on Senator Rand Paul or Senator Marsha Blackburn or Senator John Kennedy or Senator Ted Cruz or whoever.
Okay?
And every day we have them on and like they did with CompStat.
This is what Rudy Giuliani did in the 90s where they would bring in Police precinct commanders.
And they would say, what are you doing?
What have you done to address robberies in your precinct?
Or what have you done to address home invasion?
What have you done?
Justify your job.
If I ran that network, I would bring people on every day and I would say, what have you done?
And don't tell me, Well, I slam the so-and-go.
You know, one of the biggest cons is just Rand Paul and Fauci.
Do you see how much money Fauci's making?
Oh my God!
Fauci should kiss I mean, he owes his life to Rand Paul.
Life!
Rand Paul Rand Paul made him the whipping boy for the shadow government, for the biomedical tyrannists, or tyrants, or whatever you want to call them, because he made them, he made Fauci to be the victim.
And Rand Paul hasn't done anything.
But Fauci is going to end up retiring with 10, 20 million more.
Whatever you think he's making, it's not even close.
And you are being led to believe that somehow something's being done.
Why?
Because in the world of social media, well, that's all that counts.
That counts for something.
So-and-so rips.
I love that.
So-and-so, whoever.
It goes on.
AOC ripped!
Nothing is getting better.
Nothing.
I don't know how to say this anymore.
I don't know how to say it.
My show, my message is simply this.
This is not about me thinking of something clever.
You're wasting time listening to people.
You know what I'm hearing now?
You know who's entering the fray now?
I mean, if you didn't think you've had enough with Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro adding their Schopenhauer wannabe perspectives, Bill Burr is now weighing in on religion and conspiracy theories and secret societies?
Is there no shame?
Who are these people?
Is this seriously happening?
These people don't know anything.
They don't...
Hello?
Are you hearing?
They're not saying anything.
They're looking for audiences so bereft of direction that they give this illusion of, I'm going to give you the truth.
I'm going to tell you what's going on.
Meanwhile, the country is completely devolving.
Let me say one more thing before we get to some very serious stuff here.
Do me a favor and please take this the right way.
Don't be offended.
Enough!
Enough!
With the drag queen school stories.
Dear God, is that all you can do?
Is that it?
I'm not saying it's unimportant.
Is that it?
That's it?
That's all you talk about?
Do you know why?
Because it's easy.
You just go like this.
Hey, look at this.
It's divine.
And you put up a picture and you hope it goes viral and you go...
Look at me, I discovered.
At the Antioch Public School, look.
It's divine.
And some John Waters hellscape.
Enough!
Move on!
That's good.
Now move over here.
What is this?
Is this just about you?
Apparently it's about you.
It's about you saying, well I'm the one, oh no I did that one.
No, excuse me, pardon me, I ripped so and so.
Pardon me, excuse me, I don't care who rips.
I want everybody to be brought out on whatever the platform is, Fox or I don't care, and say, Cruz, what have you done?
I don't want to hear about the, what have you done?
Tell me what you've done this week.
Why should you be A senator.
Why should you get one more dollar, one more constituent?
Prove your worth.
Earn this.
If you don't fight them, you're with them.
Okay.
Stop for a second.
I can't believe the parallel universe I'm in.
But I'm going to talk about our sponsor today.
This is important right now.
As you see what's happening in Florida, look what's happening in Florida.
Count the days.
Lee County, Collier County, look at what's happening.
There's no stores, no food.
Look what's happening.
They're trying to get back.
What do they do?
Right now, right now, this is it.
I am telling you this.
You have got to listen to me.
This is the last day.
This is the last day of the month here.
There's a 20% off a three-month preparewithlionel.com special because food shortages are going to happen.
And farmers have been warning in clement weather.
That's an understatement.
Horrible weather.
Hurricanes.
This is something that you've got to listen to.
And we haven't even again addressed, we forgot about the farmers.
Fertilizer, nitrogen, ESG ratings, Sri Lanka, Denmark, the Netherlands, Canada.
What's going on here?
Pay attention.
Focus.
This is the end of the month.
This is it.
You've got to think about tomorrow.
You've got to get ready now to prepare.
My Patriot Supply, they've got, you could say, 20% off of their best-selling three-month food supply kits.
Breakfast, lunches, dinners, packed in these durable, waterproof, water-resistant, sealable, reusable, 25-year shelf life, 2,000 calories a day.
Made for this.

But if you are, this is it.
It is indestructible for 25 years.
Emergency food.
Go to preparewithlionel.com now.
preparewithlionel.com preparewithlionel.com Now, I've got to tell you something.
I don't know if you've not noticed this.
Maybe you have.
Maybe it's me.
Maybe I'm just wrong in this.
You know what?
Maybe I'm just wrong.
Maybe I should just sit back and say, oh, just shut up and just...
Just rip people.
Just do your sight.
I want things to get fixed.
I want the government to fix this.
I want somebody to wake the Republican Party and I'm not a Republican out of this thing they're in.
I don't understand it.
Social media Remain just this pavan.
Excuse me.
Remind me to tell you about my eyes.
That's great.
This social media thing.
Where we just sit around and we just talk stuff.
And we talk to each other.
And then we have our favorites.
And the favorites say, Oh, do you like that stuff?
Did you like that?
Hey, I hit some great numbers with...
Well, I showed that drag queen thing for the 50th time.
Well, I'm sticking with that.
Why?
Because I'm hot.
But nobody's doing anything about it.
Maybe you should be direct.
No, I don't want any take actions.
I just want to show people this.
Remember a while back there with you.
Oh, we had these folks.
I don't know where these folks came along.
But they were.
You see, you've got me wrong.
And Bill Burr, I could sit down with this guy.
This meatball, he's, I mean this guy, he's very funny if within the confines of a worked out routine.
He's great.
Don't let him get out of that.
Have you ever talked to, there are very few comedians who when you talk to them, they were always the worst talk show hosts.
You know who the worst was?
Gilbert Gottfried?
Joey Behar?
Horrible.
I don't want to mention too many names.
One in particular, one was like my hero.
This guy knew nothing.
Because they work in these tight, framed...
I've done this stand-up business for...
And I'm not trying to be...
I know this sounds weird.
My whole thing is, I'm not out there to make a joke and make somebody laugh.
I know.
Will Rogers, because the information makes people laugh.
But I can do an hour and a half.
And can talk because I understand the subject.
I understand what I'm trying to say.
I'm not remembering the joke.
I'm remembering the concept.
Why something is insane.
Anyway, I'd love to sit down with this Bill Burr guy and say, let me explain something to you.
You've got it wrong.
You're almost there.
You're hitting a glancing blow.
You're not getting to the gravamen, the meat of it.
You're not there yet.
There was a while back.
Who remembers the underground tunnels they were bringing kids in?
Remember that one?
I'll never forget that.
I won't.
There were people, there was one, two in particular, they were making, they were the hottest things on YouTube.
Every day, oh, I've got, I've got the latest, the latest on the tunnels.
And we thought, on the tunnels?
What the hell are you talking about?
Whose side are you on?
What do you mean, whose side am I on?
You just like the idea.
Yeah, we do.
Maybe we do.
We like the idea of tunnels.
And how about kids being sent in furniture?
Remember that one?
Remember that routine?
Where did that one go?
And I said, this thing stinks to high heaven.
Wait a minute.
I got it right here.
Why don't you go to this one?
And there were two or three names.
I don't know where they are now, but I said, This is nuts.
This is crazy.
Don't do this.
Don't go there.
You couldn't resist.
And then I get sucked into that.
I say, wait a minute, don't count me into this.
Remember how some of you thought, I thought, I thought this Trump's pretty good.
Remember that?
They told me to say, no.
He's sent by God.
I said, now listen.
Hang on here.
No.
You don't understand.
And everybody was...
Remember when people were looking at numbers and...
No, don't you understand?
If you take this...
I'm going to stop right there.
And I'm telling you the whole time...
This...
This isn't...
This isn't what we're...
This isn't reality.
We were doing so well then.
Where did you go?
And I get lumped into this.
No, no, no.
That's not me.
No, no.
Yes, it is.
No, it's not.
Okay.
That's the way it goes.
But let me say this again.
Out of all this thing we're talking about, everything, internet, TV, Fox, Breitbart, Newsmax, whatever, whoever you want, whatever you want.
Oh, we got, oh, Rand Paul.
Oh, this is good.
Larry Kudlow, very nice guy.
Larry Kudlow's going to win, win this 4 o 'clock.
Well, he should.
There's nothing else on.
He's good, he's smart, but he's nice.
Larry Kudlow's a nice guy.
Larry Kudlow's not going to land.
Don't go deep with Larry Kudlow.
Larry Kudlow's smart.
Larry Kudlow said, I'm going to do just enough.
Okay, that's nice.
The other news.
Oh!
I would be remiss if I didn't tell you this.
Remember how I've been telling you, late night is done.
Remember this?
And I'm not just saying it, part because I think, part because I know.
The late night model is over.
It's done.
Bell bottoms, disco.
Vaudeville.
The Pet Rock.
Remember those real big watch bands in the 70s?
I had one of those.
Big fashion.
Trevor Noah is the last one.
So you got James Corden.
Trevor Noah.
Comedy Central!
Comedy Central cancels comedy?
Hello!
Think about that one.
Because it ain't comedy.
It's diffuse.
I don't know where it's gone, but it's somewhere else.
You're going to see Fallon.
Who's that?
Is Seth Meyers on?
I guess he's still on.
He'll do a streaming.
They'll call it something else.
There's no money in this.
It doesn't make any sense.
It's just...
Too much information.
Who knows why?
It just doesn't work anymore.
It doesn't work.
Certain things, Fallon and then Colbert.
Colbert is the last one.
Colbert will kind of go the way of Rachel Maddow.
He'll do special projects.
Right, honey?
He'll do projects.
He'll do something.
What?
Documentaries.
Hey, by the way, can I say something right on?
And I say this to Fox News.
This is smart.
Two things you did.
Number one, going after our friend Roseanne, who is...
I love her.
Very smart.
And Sharon Osbourne.
Very good.
And by the way, Remember, two people owe her an apology, Mr. Hannity and Dr. Oz, who will lose his Senate seat very, very soon.
Never forget that one.
I never forget what you do to my friends.
Never forget.
I don't care who you are.
I don't care who you are.
It doesn't matter to me.
I don't care.
I never forget.
John Kennedy said, never forget.
No, forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.
But anyway.
But that's gone.
Do you see what's happening?
I've been telling you this.
It's going.
Nobody's watching this.
Anybody have any kids in college?
I'm always sampling.
When kids were going to college, parents were saying, oh, we're taking our kids to college.
I said, by the way, did you get them a TV?
No.
Do they have a TV in the rec room?
Maybe.
There's no TV.
Do they have a radio?
And one of my friends is in radio.
Took her daughter to college or something.
She says, they don't listen to radio.
I said, where have you been?
Keep asking them, where do you get your news?
I have one young person we know who gets it on Reddit.
It's very interesting.
Facebook, understand what's going on.
Don't ask whether it's right or wrong, but recognize the fact that this is over with.
It's over with.
And let me also tell you what's going to happen.
When meta hits, when the metaverse hits, when it really gets going, this is going to seem like 8-track compared to that.
But I don't want to get ahead of the game.
Now, let me tell you what happened yesterday.
Mrs. L. and I went to get our eyes looked at.
And let me tell you something.
I'm not going to give his name.
But we found the last of the Mohicans.
This is a medical school professor.
Old school.
Ophthalmology.
She and I went together.
You know how long our...
Kind of combined evaluation.
Just, you know, I check up.
Over an hour.
An hour.
Both of us.
The last guy we went to, way back, we were in there like five minutes.
He looked like this, and that's it.
This guy's explaining, is it better like this, or like this?
I like this.
He goes, a machine can't do this.
It was like old-fashioned.
Explaining, when you get older, you know when you're a youngster, your lens is clear.
And then when you get older, it turns yellow.
That's just nature.
Here's a picture of your eye.
And he has a thing, the dry erase.
And here's the lens.
And cataracts start around here.
And this is what you want to look at.
Your fovea's here.
And the Purkinje shift, and blah, blah, blah.
I realize, oh my God, we don't even have...
Do you have any physicians that you go to anymore who actually spend time with you?
And ladies, let me ask you this.
How many of you get this?
You don't need to come in for a mammogram until...
Every five years.
Or some numbers.
What?
What?
Why not?
What, are there different cancers now?
Do you see what's happening to medical care?
When was the last time you went to a doctor who says, what do you eat?
What do you eat?
You'll never hear that.
Ever.
Nobody ever cares about that.
Because the doctor looks worse than you do.
He's not going to ask you.
Even he has some kind of degree of...
He's not asking, what do you eat?
What do you eat?
And he always say...
Anyway, to make a long story short, so after we got done, we had the...
We had the eyes, you know, the dilation, to look and check.
This!
This was...
I don't know what he did.
This thing lasted forever.
So I did two videos yesterday wearing sunglasses.
I looked like some mob informant or a bad blues singer.
Did you ever see white guys all of a sudden try to act like the, hey man, that cat?
Jerry, please.
You know you're a pork pie hat and all of a sudden you're a blues man.
Hey man.
Well, we're walking around blind, half blind, but I was so taken aback.
An hour with a doctor.
For an eye exam.
It's the most incredible thing I've ever seen in my life.
I forgot what going to a doctor really was like in the old days.
And then I'm listening to people doing rounds and they're saying, if your doctor doesn't put his hand on you, is he touching you?
And I mean, not just you, you know, that kind of a thing.
Anyway.
And by the way, this leads me to another thing.
I did a piece on this far more detailed than this.
But I've got to tell you this.
We have a mayor who might be the most stupid person, I think.
And I want you to hear my...
And I'm going to try to clean this up.
Now you've got to be very careful.
Eric Adams is a black man.
So if you say things about him, you can say...
Whatever you said about George Bush or Dan Quayle, if you say about Eric Adams, same thing.
They're ready to jump on you, which says a lot about them.
The people arguing.
Say, why would you think that has anything to do with race?
If I say, he's an idiot, it's racial.
Wait a minute.
I think that's racial.
I think thinking this has something to do with race is racial.
I think that's missing the point.
I think this is telling me more about what you're thinking.
But anyway.
The man, listen to this.
He was, oh, he is so good.
He is so, where is he?
Oh, yes.
He was asked the other day, Mayor Adams, was accused, he accused the city's press corps of trying to put me in the box.
I don't even know what this means.
He says phrases, I don't know what they mean.
You're trying to put me in the box.
As he refused this week to provide more information about whom he meets with, saying that some of his sit-downs, many of them late at night, aren't job-related.
Quote, not every meeting I have is in my capacity.
Hang on a minute.
He says, not everyone I meet is in my capacity as mayor, you know.
Some meetings, it's not.
So it's very difficult on how I flow.
Let me say this again.
Some meetings, it's not.
So it's very difficult on how I flow.
So you're trying to put me in the box of these mayors that May have been 9 to 5 guys.
I'm a 9 to 9 guy.
And so, if you want me to fit into this description, you know, if you give me your number while you're home in your 90s, I'll text you and say, come and hang out with me on the N train.
I mean this.
What I'm going to do, I'm going to be transparent about every reporter.
I text and say, come meet me here.
And I'm going to say, this is how actually, this is how many actually showed up.
Anyway, he's losing it.
But not only that, he's profoundly incoherent.
He's oafish, boorish.
And he gets upset.
Now here's something which I want to bring to your attention.
And this may not mean anything to you, but it does to me, because it's the irony of things.
We, I think I told you this, this past week we watched a a repeat or a re, not a repeat, but this documentary on Gore Vidal meeting or debating William F. Buckley in the 1968 campaign.
And it was just Just incredible to hear these two patrician, brilliant, learned, literate, logodetilists speaking beautifully, languidly, perfectly.
Great.
In this very polite but very angry attack.
And this set records might be of all time, or proportionately, for ABC News.
This was in 1968.
And I thought, if they put this on today, people would say, what is this?
What is this?
Because we want to have Bill Burr in some F-bomb rant with...
Our good friend Joe Rogan, which is fine.
But that's what we want to hear today.
We don't want to hear that.
That is gone.
And when Neil deGrasse Tyson or Bill Nye or who?
Your friend Jordan Peterson, the Schopenhauer of our time.
I mean, when this...
That is the stratosphere.
Ooh.
I thought, what happened?
How was in 1968 this not only tolerated, but loved?
People said, bring it on.
We had Merv Griffin.
Johnny Carson's been on Carl Sagan.
Carl Sagan is the real thing, even though he was a UFO gatekeeper, but still.
It was gorgeous.
It was beautiful.
It was electric.
And then, there was a time when we had very smart people.
Richard Nixon was smart.
Lyndon Johnson may have been a bit bucolic, a bit of a rusticator, but he certainly was not considered stupid.
Nobody ever thought he was stupid.
Jimmy Carter.
Never stupid.
Nuclear physicist.
But still, boring, inept.
By the way, watch.
This wonderful documentary on HBO.
HBO documentary, it's very good, called Hostages.
About the Iranian...
Oh, it's wonderful.
It's very nostalgic, but also puts things into perspective.
Anyway, so later on, we really didn't have any stupid politicians.
George Wallace, who, by the way, ran for the Green Party with Curtis LeMay.
Green Party, kind of liberal...
Not stupid.
Nobody thought they were stupid.
Oafish.
Boorish.
Illiterate.
Nobody.
Never.
Huey Long.
I'm trying to go back.
Nothing.
No.
Closest theme came, maybe Dan Quayle.
The first time.
He spelled potato wrong.
That's it.
That's it.
Then, then, And maybe Gerald Ford said something to the effect that Europe, there's no communist threat, Eastern Europe, something like that, which is just bizarre.
And that was kind of sort of maybe stupid oafish.
Chevy Chase tried the stumbling thing.
Gerald Ford was one of our best athlete presidents next to Wizard White.
From the Supreme Court.
Anyway.
But that was still mild.
Not that Gerald Ford was stupid.
Dan Quayle spelled it wrong.
Al Gore was boring.
Bill Clinton, not stupid.
Barack Obama, definitely not stupid.
A little stupid might be Ronald Reagan if that was an actor and Bedtime for Bonzo and, well, a little senile.
But still, you might try that, but it didn't stick.
Stupid.
No way.
No way.
Going along.
Trump.
Trump stupid?
No way.
Uh-uh.
Nope.
He may be a lot of things.
We had people, we had one the other day tell us, you know, he's a sex not purveyor, a sexual assailant or a predator.
Where?
Well, just, you know.
No, seriously.
Do you have any information?
No.
But not stupid.
No way!
Then it all changes.
First we see something even more, even worse than stupid.
Organically, cognitively, neurologically, neuronally bereft.
And that, of course, is Biden.
And it's getting so bad, so Beyond, not embarrassing, but scary.
I hate this.
God!
Don't you hate that when you...
Anyway.
Very scary.
Carmelita Harris.
Not stupid.
Certainly eloquent.
She can speak clearly.
She doesn't get words mixed up.
Doesn't have the number and the genders and the case and the tenses.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
She just doesn't know South Korea or North Korea.
But other than that, but she can speak.
Karine Jean-Pierre, absolutely eloquent over nothing she knows.
But the words, what she says, perfect.
Perfect!
She just doesn't know anything.
Then comes Eric Adams.
Mayor Eric Adams.
I don't know how...
I don't remember him running for office.
If he's forgotten how to speak, what language...
I don't know.
It is...
I don't understand it.
And this is a race where we had Eric Adams against Curtis Lewa, the generalissimo of an imaginary group of urban commandos called the Guardian Angels, who all of a sudden cared nothing more, nothing but feral cats.
It was the weirdest thing.
So now, this mayor, this is an oaf.
He's a boorish oaf who can't speak.
I don't know what's going on.
He speaks about some of the third person.
I'm going to tell you something right now.
Remember I'm saying this, and it's the truth.
One day, I don't know when it's going to be, one day you're going to have a major candidate, major elected official, city, state, somebody big, who does not speak English.
Not American Sign Language or Amoslan or anything like that.
I mean does not speak English.
Maybe he speaks Spanish only.
Mark my word.
Do you think that's outrageous?
You will be told this is equity.
This is diversity.
They will be the city of and not San Antonio or Miami or someplace where you would think it'll maybe be like Duluth or something.
They will be heralded.
And you're going to have, instead of having, you know how you normally have the sign language interpreter along with?
May I ask a question about that?
I think sign language interpreters are great.
I, I, um...
I don't know why you just can't have closed caption, but it doesn't matter.
But why must all of the interpreters be very animated and act out the particular message?
I mean, to me, that's kind of editorializing.
If somebody said, you know...
And the problem that we have is that the leaders of the party do not...
It's almost like they're editorializing along with America.
That may be correct, but you never see somebody just doing it.
And do you remember one time there was a famous...
There was a famous story of an interpreter who didn't know, who wasn't even qualified, and was doing things that real interpreters said, that's not a real word.
Anyway, but you're going to see somebody one day, in addition to that, translate the mayor or the governor or whatever it is into English.
Mark my words.
And do you know why they're going to do it?
Do you know why?
They're going to call it diversity, they're going to call it equity, they're going to call it a lot of other things.
But the reason is, is just to throw yet another example of something that doesn't make any sense to you.
To tell you that whatever you thought America is, whatever you thought the language was, the culture was, what is expected, what is normal.
It's over.
Lori Lightfoot.
Chicago Mayor.
Beetlejuice, right?
Eloquent.
Gets it right.
Doesn't say nothing.
She just basically says, I'm not going to answer you.
That's none of your business.
And they ask her, how can you run for re-election when the Miracle Mile is called Murder Row?
He goes, I'm not going to answer your question.
You have no...
And she's very, very good.
She speaks correct.
Then we have in the biggest city in the nation, Eric Adams, who's a buffoon.
Listen to...
Just listen to anything.
Do you see what's happening?
Now let me stop right there.
Let me stop.
As this is happening, you're going to your phone.
And you're saying, this is fun.
This is where the fun is.
I'm going to go to that great, I want to see more drag queen shows.
I love that stuff.
Or, or, I'm going to go maybe, maybe, let me catch up on sports or something, but I'm just going to live here in my world.
And you say, by the way, is anything being done to fix it?
No.
Anybody in any office trying to fix things for?
No.
Do you expect anything to happen at the elections coming up?
No.
Well, what do you want?
I really don't want anything.
I just watch this.
That's all.
I just watch it.
I'm entertained.
I don't know.
Oh, I'd love to watch.
Oh, let's watch this.
This is great.
This is where they make fun of Fauci.
Is Fauci still in office?
Yeah, he's still there.
Anybody remove Fauci?
No.
Has Fauci ever been sued?
What have we accomplished with him?
Nothing.
But I just love to watch him being ripped.
Oh, and by the way, remember all of those judicial nominees when it was Cruz and Josh Hawley and Marsha Blackburn and John Kennedy Comrade?
Remember all that?
What was the final tally?
Did all of those people get Approved?
Are they judges now?
All of those nominees, did they?
We never follow up on that, do we?
But you saw some great little clips.
Now, can you explain to me what exactly is a woman?
My granddaughter asked me, you know, this homespun kind of...
Foghorn, leghorn, kind of a, you know, I believe that Jerry Clower, oh, I was talking to Marcel Ledbetter, bringing Justin Wilson, I'm on guarantee, I'm on told your story, the onion, you know.
Whatever happened to those people?
Oh, they were all, so what did you put us through?
What was that for?
Nothing, mere entertainment.
Doesn't do a damn thing.
None of it.
Doesn't bring any, any, Nothing happens.
It gives you the illusion that something happens.
See, nobody's doing anything to help you.
You can yell all you want.
You can scream all you want.
And hang on now.
I've gone too long before mentioning my good friend, I love him, Mr. Mike Lindell.
Oh, yes.
Mike Lindell.
And now, when the weather's cooler, It's 55 right now in New York City.
When you're in your bed with your piqueos and your crisp sheets, your geezer sheets, and you've got your duvets and your blankets and, oh my God, your MyPillow pillows and your mattress toppers and your fetal ball and your down blankets and your...
You're going to thank God for Him.
And you're going to say, this is great.
I can sleep.
And let me also tell you something.
Cold and flu season, one of the greatest things you can ever do for your health.
I'm telling you, it's not sleep, but quality of sleep.
And my pillow, promo code Lionel, promo code Lionel is like nothing, nothing like it.
And Mike Lindell, you know his story, and you know his backstory.
And you know why I love them.
So you're going to pick up the phone right now.
Oh, yes you are.
Oh, yes you are.
You might be OG.
You know what that means, right?
Ask the grandkids.
And you're going to go and you're going to find out how you can be a part of this.
And you're going to call 800.
Write this down.
Get a pen.
I'll wait.
800-645-4965.
Or you're going to use promo code Lionel from MyPillow.com.
It's the best.
You will be so happy.
Believe me.
Save like you can't believe and support one of the greatest Americans we have today.
That's true.
Now, I wanted to continue with some other wonderful things.
Oh, by the way, one more thing that drives me nuts.
And I gotta tell you this.
And I admit, it's not a very long ride.
Do you know what drives me crazy?
Have you ever met...
Now, this may not mean anything to you, but it does mean...
For some reason or another, speaking of Eric Adams, He decided to either call himself a vegan or they called him a vegan.
But now he's a part-time vegan.
I'm a pretend vegan.
I don't know what these words mean.
You can call yourself anything you want.
You can say you are of faith when you're not.
You can call yourself agnostic when you're not.
You can call yourself an atheist when you're not.
You can call yourself Jewish, or Zoroastrian, or Baha 'i, anything you want.
But when you do that, and you don't have to, my good friend Gordon Soule used to say that some people would rather climb up a tree and lie than stand there and tell you the truth.
We have a friend of ours who says, well, you know, I'm a vegan.
Oh, really?
But I like chicken.
And I don't know, here we go.
Should I correct her?
Nah.
I said, you know, that's interesting.
And I think that's great.
And you know, a lot of people think, or they're under the impression, that in order to be a vegan, that you actually have to stay away from not only meat, but animal products as well.
And I stopped.
Because there's a good reason why a lot of people think that.
And I'm wondering, why do people do that?
Why do people say they're something when they're not?
And I'm sure you might know people who say, I keep kosher when I don't, or I keep halal when I don't.
But why do people lie about stuff that they don't even have to lie about?
Nobody's even asking.
In fact, if you say that today, people will give you a hard time.
It's not something.
I always say plant-based.
That's it.
I am not, I am not, I am not vegan.
I ran into that the other day, somebody.
I said, well, I don't believe in leather.
I said, that's fine.
I certainly respect you for that.
I am plant-based.
I have leather shoes.
And I have a watchman that's leather.
And I think a leather belt, when I wear a belt, I'm not a belt person.
That's it.
That's all.
And when you get a car, I guess you can get a, you know, a cloth, seats, or whatever it is.
But, That's fine.
And they believe it, and that's true.
They have a very, very serious belief in that.
But why do people say things when it's not true?
Because they think it's, I'm just used to lying, I just say stuff?
Is that how I flow?
Is that what he would say?
That drives me nuts.
When people lie about something.
When people lie about their spirituality, when people lie about how devout they are, and nobody's asking them, nobody's making them, nobody's saying a word.
They're doing it on their own.
It's this level of lying.
Now, changing the issue just a little bit.
Do you like the way...
And this is one of the stories I would do.
See, if I was on some news show, they would say, you can't do that.
Because my first show would be why news organizations just forget about stories.
They just forget about them.
And you know some news directors would say, you can't do that.
Why?
Because we forget about them.
Well, that's my point.
Why do we forget about them?
Why don't we just...
Why?
I don't understand it.
I don't want to keep repeating the same thing, but is there anything called a follow-up?
Now, I did a piece on my private channel, LionelMedia.com.
And I was watching this with Mrs. L. Who remembers here?
The Iranian crisis.
It was great.
1979.
Do you remember that?
I remember it like it was...
I remember it like it was yesterday.
I was graduating from college.
I went and I worked for a...
My first real serious job was the U.S. Senator, Dick Stone, right during that time.
And I remember picking him up at the airport one time and he was furious because at the time when the plans were made to try to rescue the hostages, apparently Israel had made either the offer of or gesture of help.
We'll help you.
We're already there.
We have spies there.
We'll help you, America.
We'll help you.
A little payback.
You've been good to us.
We're already there.
Oh, no, no, no.
Oh, no, no, you don't understand.
You've got to bring your helicopter and your Chinooks over there and you've got to be on a ship and then the salt water and then they've got to be desert modified and the sand and all.
No, no.
We will believe in sin.
*shriek*
And Jimmy Carter just looked like a complete gedrool.
I mean, it was just one disaster.
444 days, and it was initially, it was the students who did this.
And how they were double-crossed again by a theocracy.
And by the way, this was HBO, and it was very, very good.
It was very, very, very good.
This is the most important thing in the world.
Most important thing in the world.
For you to recognize how it was then.
And what's also interesting is that when we look back then, it made me think, what will we look back now?
What will we say?
What?
Forty years from now, they look back.
What were our problems?
We had Jimmy Carter.
Inflation.
Don't forget what Jimmy Carter was.
Jimmy Carter was very, very important.
You want to go into some good, great shadow government, deep state stuff?
Globalist stuff?
Jimmy Carter was put into office, provided the following take place.
Number one, Paul Volcker is in charge of the Fed.
And number two, you get Zbigniew Brzezinski.
And Zbigniew Brzezinski.
Wasn't so much a neocon as much as he was anti-Russian like you cannot believe.
Polish, Polish prince.
Russia, Russia, Russia.
You think kind of the Victorian New England.
Not really a neocon per se.
Not, not, not really.
Brzezinski was the one who said, we're going to bring Russia their Vietnam.
Charlie Wilson's war is Big Neb Brzezinski's war.
And when they said to him, they said, Mr. Brzezinski, do you know what you're doing?
You're enabling, you're arming, you're exacerbating a situation involving people, Mujahideen and others, the Taliban and basically the precursors to Al-Qaeda.
You're arming them.
And at the time, They said, what's going to happen, speaking of which, to our allies like Israel?
You're basically fueling their enemies.
And when you pull out, you've just created this new species of enemy, and where is that going to go?
And Brzezinski said, that will be nothing but a...
A mosquito bite or some minor little...
Ah, so what?
You're going to give a bunch of people with funny hats and a beard a few missiles?
He didn't care about that.
He wanted Russia, the graveyard of empires.
He wanted to bring them their Vietnam.
That's where we were!
And if you ever want to go back and see something funny, way too...
Please go back.
I don't know if YouTube still has it.
But it's Brzezinski telling Joe Scarborough, you don't know what the hell you're talking about.
You don't know anything.
The level of your ignorance is incalculable.
I mean, it was like, oh my God.
That was then.
That was...
That was important.
And then we said, okay.
So Russia said, we're out of there.
Great.
Now what?
What do you mean now what is big?
Okay, what happens to Afghanistan?
I don't care about Afghanistan.
We got Russia.
We humiliated Russia.
Really?
You sure about that?
We sure did.
Okay.
Well, and then it's fascinating too how all of a sudden Reagan They actually left the airspace after Reagan takes office.
If you don't think that was coordinated, you're not paying attention.
And guess who Ronald Reagan was selling arms to with the Iranians?
Came right next.
Isn't that something?
Isn't that something?
Remember that?
Arms for hostages and all that.
Then the countries and all this stuff.
Oh, I mean, it was beautiful.
And this is the most important thing in the world for me to tell you the following.
What will they think about us now?
What?
Just imagine that.
The 2000.
CNN presents.
The 2000s.
The 2020s.
What am I trying to say?
The Trump.
What would they say about Trump?
Oh, it will be Trump.
It will be Trump.
And if they're smart, they'll say, everybody said, can you believe what Trump wrote?
The people who said what Trump said were the media.
People didn't say that.
The media said that.
But then came Biden.
Do you think we're going to have Biden shaking hands with nobody there?
Do you think we'll have the drag queen John Waters horror show stuff?
Do you think we'll have Carmelita saying we love North Korea?
They made fun of, like I said, Gerald Ford, who said that there's no evidence of communist influence in Eastern Europe.
My friend, if our world now, right now, since Biden, since January of 2021, if they pick it up from that point on, nobody in the future will ever believe this ever happened.
Nobody.
Opening borders, coming in, fentanyl.
Fentanyl is out of control.
We stop talking about homelessness, crime.
A future Supreme Court nominee?
Can you define a woman?
This is nuts!
And you don't realize it.
And like I said, if I was on Fox News, every time I'd have somebody on.
Ah, Tulsi Gabbard, Tulsi, we'll get to you later.
I know you're running.
I know, I know, I know.
You, Ted Cruz, what have you done?
Rand Paul, what have you done other than make?
Make Fauci a gazillionaire.
What have you done?
What have you done?
I know, I know.
Audit the Fed.
Okay, okay.
What do you do?
What do you do?
John Kennedy, what do you do?
Why should anybody vote for you?
They had a picture of Ronald McDaniels.
We're out signing people up.
It's over, kids.
Because the world that we think exists, Exists in our mind and in our little phones.
But reality, it ain't there.
