Today, today invariably, I think is going to be one of the most interesting and all-encompassing shows for reasons that I will explain to you.
Fourth whip.
First and foremost, we're going to be covering a number of subjects.
The one we're going to be talking about, and by the way, these were covered in my private channel.
One is called, I love this one, for 20 years they called you a conspiracy theorist, just to condition you for today.
When those same people are spewing insane theories that are at best conspiratorial.
Regarding Nord Stream, are you seeing what's happening there?
We're going to be discussing that.
Next, why is it that the most ostensibly closeted and prototypically overtly effeminate men scream the loudest about evanescent testosterone levels?
I wonder.
We're going to be talking about that.
And also, A subject which you might find interesting, the crypto-homoerotic world of a lot of people who will project using themselves as the subject of the projection.
I'll explain that later.
Finally, now crowdsource stupid students can get a professor bounce because he's too hard.
Watch for the racism accusation in 3, 2, 1. This was also covered in my Lionel Media private.
But here's the best one.
I just did it now and I want to start off with this because it's just, it's too good to miss.
I'm sorry.
Fake weights, fake news, fake concern, and repackaged schmaltz and schlock.
Fredo makes his triumphant, though transitory, re-entry in what was once called news.
How delicious is that?
I absolutely could not possibly, couldn't, let that go by without mentioning a few words a bit.
I'm sorry, it's just so perfect that I have to say that.
Because it's that good.
It's that good.
And it's not what you think.
By the way, there is that private channel.
But first, I want to say something very important.
As we speak, a word from our sponsor, MyPatriotSupply, and PrepareWithLionel.com.
They're still trying to get back on their feet in Florida.
Still.
Still.
It is a mess.
It lasts a very, very long time.
And we can argue and perhaps opine as to why that happened.
But my friends, one of the things, one of the things which they would have never had to worry about for a moment is the notion of emergency food.
If they had availed themselves, and I'm sure many, many will, of the prepare with Lionel, Now the special, saving $250 on each three-month emergency food kit.
No matter what happens.
And by the way, this is waterproof.
These are stacked.
This three-month emergency food supply.
Let me tell you what this is.
It is rugged, water-resistant.
As long as they don't float away, they're there for $250.

It weighs 120 pounds.
It's good for three months.
90 days.
It's there.
And we're not talking banana chips and weird desiccated something or other.
This food is amazing.
Just look at it.
PrepareWithLionel.com You will say, whoever came up with this is a genius.
Thank God.
PrepareWithLionel.com You don't need a hurricane.
You don't need a disaster.
You just need the slightest interruption, the slightest hiccup in supply chains, in food insecurity, name it.
So do yourself a favor.
Do your family a favor right now.
Take advantage.
They haven't had this.
Listen to this.
They haven't had this price on their three-month kit since 2019.
This is a chance you cannot Now, let's talk about a couple of things here.
First, we appreciate you liking this.
It helps us tremendously in trying to overcome the, well, the Problems that we have to address since we have been demonetized and demonized, but not demoralized.
And by the way, thank you for your support.
Thank you for your contributions.
There's a description in this particular aspect of how you can contribute.
Ladies and gentlemen, let's talk about the man-child, Fredo Cuomo, who made his...
Triumphant return, I guess, to, albeit transitory, to a news platform.
And in terms of news marketing, it's nothing short of brilliant.
Why?
Because the news trajectory, the news platform, is at the end of the trajectory.
It is over.
CNN is done.
It's done.
They're just waiting to pick off.
Don Lemon.
I mean, they're just waiting.
Stelter.
Everybody.
It's just the whole thing.
It's shifting.
Fox News is very smart.
They're putting all of their money, and it's very good, by the way, in their streaming, their shows.
Sharon Osbourne, very good.
Piers Morgan, others as well.
Tucker, who has just been superb.
When does he get the notice?
When does somebody pick up the phone and say, this guy can't do this anymore.
He's got to go.
He's talking about stuff he's not supposed to be talking.
Because it's the only reason to watch Fox News.
Though the streaming is good.
Anyway, so they're doing that thing.
Fredo Cuomo doing behind the neck tricep extensions.
With a hundred pound, hundred pound.
Wow.
Wow.
And even our good friend Joe Rogan said, well, I don't know, you know, I've known some Italian guys.
Joe, please, what are you talking about?
What?
We'll get to that in a moment.
So anyway, he fell into some stuff with his brother.
The name Corman was so sad.
You got that brother?
Oh my God, that brother.
By the way, the brother, before his...
This is Andrew.
Before his...
Sollozzo.
Before his psychological meltdown.
And the fact that he never could maybe rise the level of his father.
He could have been absolutely terrific.
He had all the makings of being a great governor.
And I don't know what happened.
It just...
This weird kind of a...
Again, always sexual.
Always psychosexual.
Can't keep his hands off people doing all this stuff.
So he's gone.
And then all of a sudden they turn to Fredo and they say, well, you know, you were too close to him, but he's my brother.
And for some reason he violated some rule, some internal rule, which was...
Verboten beyond verboten.
And he had to leave.
Okay, gone.
And then he threatened you.
I'm going to sue you for $50 million.
I don't know where that's going.
Who knows?
Who knows?
Anyway, he's gone.
Zucker's gone.
And by the way, Zucker, people who worked with him said he was nothing but a gentleman.
They loved him.
But that whole thing is done.
That trajectory.
Not just CNN.
Not just CNN.
Because that's Zaslav from Discovery.
That whole thing is done.
That's vaudeville.
It doesn't make sense anymore.
It's a different world.
It costs so much money to put together these people.
I mean, there is a base there.
But they tried everything.
Did you ever go to an airport and see CNN?
They paid for that.
This is over.
It's done.
It's like USA Today, free at the hotel.
It's done.
Not news, not information, but this.
It's done.
So he's gone.
And he was making fools of himself.
He had, I think sometimes, and there's no evidence of people doing steroids, but when people do do steroids, again, don't know, but when people get involved in themselves, they get into this second Kind of a childhood.
And one of the things which is interesting to know, if you look at people who use performance enhancement, they go through a kind of a re-puberty.
One of the reasons why they suspected Mark McGuire, they noticed like zits on his back and others.
You just don't want to mess with this kind of stuff.
We'll talk about this testosterone diminution later.
But it makes you kind of crazy and bold and brash and nuts.
I knew somebody one time who was a compulsive gambler, ex-drug addict, or a drug addict, I guess.
Anyway.
And he's on steroids.
And what we saw was this personality that I couldn't even...
Nobody could understand.
He was nuts!
Because it put him into puberty again.
See, that's the whole thing about...
It puts you into that crazy, though a lot of us never went through that crazy, but when you're 50 years old and you're going through it again, so you see this erratic behavior.
Then there's narcissism.
Then the idea that, hey, I'm really hot.
I'm taking pictures of myself.
I'm working out.
I'm in front of a mirror.
For some reason, the bathroom mirror.
I'm going to take a picture of my side bicep shot and I'm going to post it.
I don't understand this.
I don't understand this.
I don't.
And my generation, we were in the days of Stay Hungry and Pumping Iron and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
We were there.
By the way, please like this.
Please.
Thank you.
Thank you for this.
Thank you for the likes.
Very important.
It's not for me.
It's for the cause.
And there was Fredo.
He says, hey, I'm going to go downstairs.
I'm not going to come out.
Really?
I'm going to go down to my Hamptons home in my basement and I'm not coming out.
Really?
No, really.
I'm going to stay down there and my family, ooh, I'm going to, ooh, I hope there's a shower there because I'm going to stay down there until I'm because it's, hey, hey.
Hey, do the right thing.
And then they reportedly saw him out riding a bike.
I mean, the guy's so full of it, it's not even funny.
And then they went into it with Don Lemon and Don Lemon.
But it was such a...
It was like watching an animal act gone bad or seeing something that was just...
Horrible.
You just watched it.
I didn't.
They did.
So anyway, he gets canned.
So now there's this new platform.
So what do they do?
They decide, listen, we're at the tail end of this.
Let's hire this guy.
As of today, everybody's talking about it.
We'll do that in a moment.
It's going to, after this initial excitement level happens, or if you can convince Chris, to be himself and say stupid things, because that will get eyes as well.
Oh yeah, in the old days, if you said something stupid, you'd get fired.
Not anymore.
No, no, it keeps you on your toes.
Absolutely.
Did you know that?
It's true.
So anyway, they're going to enjoy themselves, and that's terrific.
And what does he do?
Starts off right off the bat about me, you know.
I don't apologize.
Do apologize.
Don't apologize.
Whatever.
Now, in any other realm, at any other time of our civilization, we'd say, get this guy off.
He's talking about himself.
Cronkite never talked about himself.
Even the Harry Reasoner and Barbara Walters feud, they never talked about it on air.
They kind of whisper it.
It's a different time now.
All they want to do, and I understand it, they just want eyes on this platform.
Eyes on it.
And if he's the one doing it, Great!
And if they're watching it because they hate him, great!
If they're watching him because it's stupid, don't care.
There's not four different rating scales.
Ratings, Nielsen who like it, Nielsen who thought it was brilliant, Nielsen who thought it was a train wreck or a dumpster fire.
No!
A rating is a rating is a rating.
And that's it!
That's all it is.
Let's see what happens.
But it's not news anymore.
The people I feel sorry for are the other ones who thought they'd be doing a new show.
And instead, all of the oxygen in the room is going to be sucked out by that show.
And invariably, there will not be any attempt made to apportion interest.
You will have a more mutiny...
More people have left this network than you can imagine.
I'm not...
This guy...
Remember they had David...
Somebody from Fox News...
Not David.
Anyway, there was a Fox News person.
They ran.
You can't have a Fox News person there.
What is this, conservative?
What is this?
Sinclair?
Remember Sinclair?
What are you?
You can't do that.
Anyway, so they laughed.
You get mutinies and all these people.
So it'll just kind of settle down.
But the bottom line is simply this, and it's very, very simple.
We're going to start with this.
The very simple concept.
It is not news anymore.
It is not news.
Stop saying that Cronkite is dead.
I understand exactly what they're doing.
Stop with the news.
Don't call it news.
Don't refer to it as news.
Don't make these schlockies.
We're going to make sure that we tell you that which you need to know.
We're going to make sure that you...
Let me see.
That we keep you up to date.
That we let you know.
Okay.
Anyway, enough of that.
Now, who sabotaged Nord Stream 1 and 2?
Who?
Now, I have a little poll here.
For your edification, perusal, and review.
And we have so far 200, a whopping 206 votes.
That's pretty good.
By the way, please like this.
Don't vote.
Vote for this.
The question is, who sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline?
Russia?
9%.
NATO?
19%.
8% said no one.
I'm trying to get me fair.
64% said the United States.
Did you see Jeffrey Sachs?
S-A-C-H-S?
Columbia University economics professor who said, oh, I think it looks like the United States.
What?
Now, did you notice something?
These are conspiracy theories.
And for 21 years since 9-11, you have been grounded down.
Oh my God.
Don't say anything about conspiracy theories.
Don't say anything about conspiracy theories.
And whenever you have to To go on a TV show, you always have to say, well listen, I'm no conspiracy theorist.
Last night I saw the great Tucker, remember the first part of the Tucker show?
Whatever that fellow, whatever his name is, the COVID person who was bumped off of Twitter, he said, I'm no conspiracy theorist.
They love to tell you that.
I'm no conspiracy theorist.
What does that mean?
Well, I'm just...
You mean a conspiracy?
You have no theory?
Are there conspiracies?
Well, of course.
Do you have any theories as to...
Yes, then you're a conspiracy theorist.
Why do people say it?
Because it's who we are now.
You have to say this.
You have to always start off with, well, I'm no conspiracy theorist.
I'm no...
No, I'm no conspiracy...
And I've talked about this a million, million times.
Okay?
That just means the following, and I'm going to try this again, and if you don't like what I'm saying, I can't help you because I'm going to be saying it forever.
A conspiracy is two or more people involved in some type of usually criminal, nefarious, underhanded, some effort.
Two or more people working together to bring about something, usually in secret, usually without people knowing who they are.
There are conspiracies, I guess you know who they are, but it normally implies you don't know who they are.
And they're working together.
The word conspire is Latin meaning to breathe with.
That's what it means.
In the old days they had attempts and they had accomplices and things like that.
It's a different story.
So if you and I, if I say, hey listen, I think we should buy some dope.
Really?
Yeah, buy that dope.
And we'll sell that dope for a profit and we'll make a lot of money.
Do you want to do that?
I sure do.
That's called a conspiracy.
Or a dry conspiracy, as we used to say, I haven't even done anything yet.
I'm just on the phone.
We're just talking about it.
That's all it means.
Haven't lifted a finger.
It's the act.
The Confederation.
The agreement.
That's a conspiracy.
Do you understand what that means?
Yes.
Tell me you do.
Yes.
See?
That's a conspiracy.
And in the old days, the reason why, by the way, as a side note, for all of you who love these new racketeering, or excuse me, these mafia...
RCN, you know, website, or streams, which are very good in some respects.
Racketeering came along and they said, no, no, we don't care anymore about conspiracies.
Conspiracies are too hard because you've got the guy at the top, you've got the John Gottis, and you've got these people down here, and there's no way to prove that this guy conspired with anyone.
Racketeering, racketeer, influence, corrupt organization, RICO said, if you're a member, Of a racketeering enterprise.
That's it!
You are a member of the club and you are responsible, whether you're the head, the guy involved, doesn't really matter.
Because it had to get around conspiracy.
So let me say this again.
It's an agreement.
Now, when the United States decided during Vietnam to not tell you What they were putting or what they were doing with Agent Orange, and they were spraying American soldiers and citizens and killing people and giving them cancer, that wasn't a conspiracy.
That was called, they were keeping it from you.
That's not a conspiracy.
When a husband is having an affair, And keeps it quiet.
That's not a conspiracy.
You could say, well, he's conspiring.
No, he's not.
He's just not telling you.
That's not a conspiracy.
False flags, things like that.
Hey, we did the Gulf of Tonkin.
It was not a conspiracy.
We didn't conspire with anybody.
We went in.
Lied about it and said, hey, the South Vietnamese.
No, we didn't.
That's called a lie.
It wasn't a conspiracy.
Nobody conspired.
It was a lie.
When somebody denies something, and I'm sorry to be spending so much time because the term is just wrong.
When Joe Biden says, we're going to do a, we're going to, you know, I get the impression.
That there is a move here on the part of, you know, this bail reform basically means to just let bad people out of prison.
Oh, that's a conspiracy theory.
No, it's not.
I'm not saying people are conspiring.
I'm saying they're doing this.
Does that make any sense?
So stop saying conspiracy.
It's not a conspiracy.
90%.
Just like stop saying Marxism.
Oh, these Marxists.
They're not Marxists.
They're not communists.
Okay?
Okay.
So all of a sudden you then have this case in which you have this Nord Stream 2. Now you have this is Russia's main line.
Now you've got to believe, if you listen to Brennan and others, that Russia did it itself.
Russia destroyed, hurt, upended its own natural gas pipeline.
258 likes so far.
Please.
More.
Thank you.
I want $4.50.
$4.50.
Gotta have it.
Okay?
Now, Brennan said this.
Let me tell you what Brennan said.
This is what John Brennan...
By the way, John Brennan looks like he would make the best commercial for any kind of constipation.
Doesn't he look like he's just in such...
This is killing me.
I'm dying over here.
Whether anybody constipated, it's a terrible, terrible thing.
Okay?
And you will be, you will love plant-based diets.
That's all I'm going to say.
That's all I'm going to say.
I've got to read this to you.
This is just, oh, here we go, here we go.
Former chief spook, think about that, John Brennan, on the Nord Streams, quote, this is a quote, Follow the logic.
I think this is clearly an act of sabotage of some sort.
Everybody says, yes?
I don't think it just...
This is an explosion.
It's not an oops.
So I think this is clearly an act of sabotage.
This is a quote.
And Russia is certainly the most likely suspect.
Why?
Why does he say that?
What proof does he have?
Now, Jeffrey Sachs, the economist who was making a lot of noise, oh, they're getting very upset with Jeffrey Sachs, very upset with Jeffrey Sachs, he said, basically, well, Victoria Nuland said, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, there's no normality, just, no, Believe me, there's no...
Now, let me go on the record.
On the record.
Isn't that a show on TV?
Some show called On the Record.
My book called Beating a Dead Horse with Lionel.
The Broken Record with Lionel.
Let me go again.
Ready?
Carefully.
What you suspect, what you believe to be true, are two different things.
You cannot believe something to be true because you suspect something.
Unless you suspect something because of some type of evidence.
Now if you say, well, you know what?
If I had to bet, if I had to, you know, now I'm listening.
I'm listening.
Okay, okay, okay.
Because I don't have any evidence.
We don't have any, you know, there's a picture.
Hey, isn't that a U.S. frigate?
Doesn't frigate sound like, ah, frigate.
Frigate.
There's no evidence of it.
But if somebody says, you know what?
If I had to bet, okay.
If I didn't know better, okay.
Alright.
That's one thing.
That's kind of a guess.
But when people say, oh no, no.
No.
No.
I know the U.S. did it.
Why do you do it?
Why?
I just...
I just...
I just know.
Why do you know?
I just...
I just know.
Really?
Now listen to this.
You're going to love this one.
Breitbart.
Breitbart.
Everybody said, ooh, listen.
Breitbart, big headline.
Russians push baseless theory blaming U.S. for burst pipeline.
The Kremlin and Russian state media are aggressively pushing a baseless conspiracy theory.
Blaming the U.S. for damage.
That's not a conspiracy theory.
Again, that's, no, I'm blaming you.
You did it.
You didn't conspire with anybody.
Do you see how Breitbart is missing?
There's no conspiracy.
There's no, nobody's, whom do we conspire with?
What?
We can't conspire by ourselves.
By the way, years ago in criminal law, You couldn't charge conspiracy if you, let's say a bad guy, were on the phone and you were going to buy dope or sell dope to a cop and he was undercover.
In some jurisdictions, you couldn't charge the person with conspiracy because you can't conspire with somebody who would not do this.
It's very interesting because the police officer is not going to be selling dope.
So you're conspiring with somebody?
Who could not and possibly would not have done this ever?
Now that's changed in some jurisdiction.
You can conspire with the wrong people, but it's the act of the agreement.
It's this confederation.
By the way, same thing.
You might want to be asking, well how about a guy who, what if there's a woman who's pretending to be a cop and she's posing as a prostitute?
I don't even know if we have that anymore.
Because now there are sex workers.
But when they dressed as a cop, And they would say, hey, want a date?
You want a date?
Okay.
They didn't charge him with conspiracy.
No.
They charged him with solicitation.
These are called inchoate crimes.
Solicitation, and if you're a prostitute, you're charged with offer to commit.
But here's the bright part.
The Kremlin and Russian state media are aggressively pushing a baseless conspiracy theory, blaming the U.S. for damage to natural gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea.
Russians push baseless conspiracy theories.
By David Klepper.
The Kremlin and Russian...
Oh, it's an AP story.
The Russian position is also reverberating on social media.
Okay, why?
NATO leaders believe the damage to the Nord Stream 1 and 2 between Russia and Germany is a result of sabotage.
NATO has refrained from identifying a suspect pending an investigation.
Okay.
Good reason.
Many reasons for that, but out of an abundance of caution.
Good for you.
And it says Russia began blaming the U.S. quickly after the damage was reported Monday night.
Really?
On Friday, speaking at a ceremony to our next four Ukrainian regions, Putin said, quote, Anglo-Saxons in the West were behind the terror attacks, but did not specify.
Pravda and other Russian state outlets, blah, blah, blah.
Europe must know the truth.
Okay.
Fox News as Tucker Carlson played the Biden clip on his show and brought up the possibility that the U.S. was behind the sabotage.
Yes!
And...
Do you see how they're dancing?
Read through this.
And I talk about it at great length.
Now let me ask you something.
There's another version of this that says that according to the...
Economics professor at Columbia, Jeffrey Sachs, there is great evidence that U.S. helicopters, military helicopters that are normally based in Gdansk, were circling over this area.
Okay.
He said, Sachs says, the destruction of the Nord Stream Pipeline, which I would bet was a U.S. action, perhaps U.S. and Poland.
Okay, these were.
Now, let me stop right there.
Let me reiterate.
For those who are at home trying to figure out...
By the way, 321 likes.
You're getting there.
We have no evidence.
I'm a prosecutor.
But I'm going to go with that one to pursue it.
Let's see.
Mr. Sachs, yes.
Do you have evidence of American helicopters flying?
Yes.
Would you show us that, please?
Would you show us?
Would you tell us why do you think?
Now, we know there is cui, C-U-I, bono, for who good, you know, who benefits, and cui, or cui protest, who benefits from this.
Okay, short from that, do you think it likely that Russia would do this?
Would sabotage itself?
Well, one school says no.
Another school said, well, yeah, if it wants to show that America did it.
This is like a double conspiracy theory.
So it blew up its own, it false flagged its own to prove the US, yeah.
Meanwhile, it's unable, it loses how much money?
What's the purpose of that?
So put that theory over here.
Now, what benefit would it be for us to do that?
Well, number one, if it's so obvious that everybody says, come on, you did it.
I don't know what good that is, but let's forget that.
Is there a benefit if all of a sudden somebody could, we or the West or NATO, could turn the room and go, well, there goes your Russian natural gas then.
You might want to deal with these people instead.
Okay, maybe.
Maybe there's at least one could argue.
But absent proof, this means nothing.
See, I'm a cop, and I want to arrest the person who killed your child, God forbid.
And you keep telling me, I'm telling you, the neighbor's acting hinky.
You're right about that.
And you're right.
You can't arrest them.
There's no probable cause.
There's no nothing.
You're on to something.
Maybe, but this doesn't work.
Yeah, but you know.
Yeah, you know, I'll bet you probably.
But we don't work like that.
But here's the two things.
Let me stop you right there.
344 likes.
Thank you.
You're listening.
Number one.
The usual suspects.
And I say this with all due respect.
They're from our side.
They're from our family.
Oh, they believe everything.
Oh, absolutely.
Oh, please.
Please.
Absolutely.
Why do you believe this?
Well, come on.
Tucker Carlson, God bless him.
I don't know how much longer he's going to last.
He was talking about Paddock in Las Vegas.
We didn't even know the beginning of that.
What was that about?
But that was the weirdest story that made no sense.
How did he get all that ammo up there?
Is this a conspiracy theory?
No, I'm asking a question.
How did he get the ammo there?
Nobody's talking about them.
Our side says, it's obviously inside job.
He did it.
How do you know?
Come on!
There are people, true, who love.
They just...
Go there.
They say, want some chocolate?
I'll take it.
Don't you want to know what it is?
Nope.
I'll take it.
I love chocolate.
I love chocolate.
Anything chocolate.
I love it.
Anything.
Mmm.
I love it.
Anthony Bourdain on CNN.
Anthony Bourdain.
A new book says, that case stinks so bad on reasons I know you have not thought of yet.
I know them.
And before I say, be careful about that, it's not because I don't think people killed themselves.
Or that he was necessary.
But I have reasons where I want to follow this.
But there are people in our group, come on, who say, oh, no, no, no, no.
Everybody killed.
It was a distraction.
Now you, if you are of that ilk, you've got to stop it.
Remember Robin Williams?
He had dementia with Lewy body.
Remember that?
He was out of his tree.
So, so very, very sad.
Epstein.
But there are reasons.
I didn't just say, oh, they killed him because of Jeffrey Epstein.
No!
There's evidence!
I don't...
I don't think something just because, you know, I think that's a good, I think some people would benefit.
I don't think that way.
You can't think like that.
We don't do anything.
But years ago, the people who, oh, 9-11, you could sit there for the rest of your life all day and say, here's some questions for you.
And by the way, nobody cares about that anymore, so that's officially over.
That has left, Elvis has left the arena.
But the very people who would say, you're crazy.
I'm what?
You're crazy.
You're a conspiracy theorist.
You and you're crazy.
Now they're saying, oh, it's Russia.
What?
Come on.
No, Brennan.
Why is it Russia?
Come on.
Look at him.
Look at Putin.
He's crazy.
Look at him.
He's crazy.
He's evil.
He looks evil.
Look at him.
Crazy.
374 likes.
Come on, you can do it.
You can do it.
Come on.
He's crazy.
He's crazy?
He's evil!
And now, he wants to nuke his border?
Yeah.
And China is saying, let me tell you something, this is the scariest stuff.
We have a young friend of the family.
I'll never forget, right after...
Ukraine, after the special military operation commenced, which is what Russia calls it officially, and this young person called me, very upset, and said, are we going to be nuked?
He was dead serious.
This was not a child, but his friends, he had never been through anything like this before, very, very, very frightened.
Very frightened.
Are we going to be new?
Are we going to be...
I said, no, no.
I said, do me a favor.
I said, if ever I think it ever gets to look scary, I'll call you.
So if you don't hear from me, everything's okay.
I'm this close to calling.
Now we could see it.
Why?
Because we're talking about it.
Nobody was even talking about it before.
There's too much talking about it.
You don't even...
You see, when people get a weapon, when people say, well, I got...
This is my pickle ornament.
Well, I got my gun.
Assume this is a gun.
A pistol.
A revolver.
I got it.
Why?
Protect myself.
I don't think you should have it.
Well, I think I should.
Why?
Because I'm just going to...
There's a lot of crap.
I don't think you know how to use it.
I know how to use this.
When somebody gets a gun, pistol, revolver, the chances of something bad happening just went up.
Most people should not have weapons.
True.
They just should not.
They risk more problems.
Why?
Because you're talking about it.
And you're carrying it.
And you keep talking about it.
And every time you've got this thing, every time somebody comes behind you, whereas before, you might have just said, let's just cross the street.
Now, you're going to be more confrontational.
Because you've got the pickle gun.
Well, that's what people are doing now.
They're talking for the first time.
China's saying, you go after Russia, you've got us to...
And these sick people, military industrial complex, war profiteers, they want to nuke so bad it's not even funny.
Not even funny.
Stop for one second.
On a lighter note, let's take a breath.
Let's just take a breath right now.
Let's talk about a very, very, very, very wonderful product.
You know what I'm talking about.

Blows your mind.
So my friend, I say this to you, and I'm not trying to reiterate, there's no evidence of any kind of It's conspiracy theory.
I don't know who is conspiring.
It's the wrong term.
We need more evidence.
We need more forensics.
We need somebody to say, I've got this.
Do they have closed circuit television?
Anybody out there?
Do we have anybody who says, I've got this.
We've got underwater.
Do you know that we have underwater?
Unmanned vehicles, UUVs, everybody's got these.
We need experts.
Are you going to believe the experts?
Of course not.
Is the UN or something?
UN.
Are they going to say, let's send somebody out there.
Let's do some forensic.
Okay.
Say you're going to do some forensics and see what Russia says.
Call them and say, hey Vlad, let's check this out together.
Okay, I'll go with you, you go with me.
It's a deal.
That's a good sign.
Okay?
As opposed to, no!
I check.
No, no, we want to be there when you check.
No, no, no, no.
Is anybody talking about this?
No.
No, but you've got John Brennan on who says, no.
And the one that they cannot believe in, listen to this one, David Petraeus, who says, well, if there's any evidence of such and such, we'll just, you know, NATO, we'll just use some nuclear what?
They made a deal with you, didn't they?
Petraeus, didn't they?
You kept that fourth star?
Remember this story?
Remember Paula Broadwell?
Was it Broadwell?
Broadwell and Petraeus.
Remember this?
University of Colorado.
Remember this one?
This was the affair.
They had the scandal.
This is University of Denver.
Remember this?
It is...
Denver removes, then restores Paula Broadwell video.
It was called Pillow Talk.
Remember the story?
Probably not.
I do.
This is when they were saying...
This was when they were talking...
This was...
Right around the Benghazi stuff.
And she intimated, based upon her collection, Petraeus.
By the way, Petraeus was a very, very, very good general.
Believe it or not.
The surge worked.
Remember they called him General Petraeus?
Anyway.
But there was an issue there about whether the The insurgents moved and attacked Benghazi, or did they go there trying to rescue?
Was it a torture area?
Which is what the Obama administration says, oh no, no, no.
Anyway, Broadwell was yapping and yapping, and she basically let the cat out of the bag.
I know you don't remember this, but that's what happened.
So they were going to yank him.
Biggest force ever then?
Who knows why?
Is it worth it?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
In the old days, they would get rid of people because you were incompetent, like Odierno.
Remember Ricardo Sanchez and all these other people?
They never got bounced.
They were incompetent.
George Marshall would have...
Tom Ricks does a great piece.
Listen to some of his great speeches on the generals.
But the point is...
And I have no reason to suspect this.
But it's a plausible hypothesis without any proof.
If somebody says, okay, I'll tell you what.
You can leave now.
You can keep your four star.
You won't lose any of your, you know, privileges.
You can go and build any kind of board and all that.
But understand something.
We own you.
Okay.
Alright.
Okay.
Good.
But why would you want to, I mean, the man did serve his country, whether you like it or not.
But Crystal's another story.
He's had a big mouth and whatever.
But I can't believe what he's talking about.
Nuclear bombs, nuclear.
And the attitude should be, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, wait, wait, wait.
You don't even know what you're talking about.
You don't even know.
Yes, of course, they're obvious.
Now let me ask you a question.
In the event a nuclear device were to be detonated in Ukraine, which is just even sane, is inconceivable.
Do you want to go to war with Russia or China?
Have we thought this through?
Do we have this rule that says whoever detonates one of these devices 422 likes, by the way.
I want a 450.
You are paying attention.
I'm very proud of you.
Thank you.
But do we have some rule that says, whenever it happens, we immediately nuke in retaliation.
And then that's it.
Is that the way we do it?
Is that the way we do it?
Because this is insane.
And there are people who are so...
Do you know what would happen?
Do you know what kind of cleanup it would take?
Oh, my God.
You read Perkins' Diary of an Economic Hitman?
Oh, imagine.
We're going to go in.
Let's say a low-yield, small type of weapon to go in and clean this place up and then loans and everything like that.
I want to keep these ghouls out of here.
But do you think this is even remotely possible?
Well, we're talking about it.
And it's the most frightening thing I've ever heard in my life.
I never thought we'd even be discussing this.
Never thought we'd even be discussing it.
But there are people out there, remember, there were people during, there was Curtis LeMay and others, this is interesting by the way, let me just clarify a few things, who wanted to bomb North Korea into the Stone Age.
Do you know that more firebombs More bombs landed on Tokyo, and Japan rather, than all of the weapon, all of the firepower of the two nuclear bombs.
Our just do little rage and just the fire bombs.
It was horrible.
Do you know that there was a guy one time, an old man, I see him every now and then, It was at the time of the August, it was some reference to dropping the bomb.
And he says, well, that's what you should have done.
I said, well, you know what?
MacArthur was against it.
Vinson was against it.
Eisenhower was against it.
Even Curtis LeMay.
There was no reason to do that.
Once, When Russia entered Japan, remember that, our allies?
Once they got into the pit, it was done.
All they wanted to do, all they said was, please, you must guarantee the life of Hirohito.
That's it, the emperor.
That's all they wanted.
It would have been over and done with.
There was no reason to do that.
Everybody said this.
And this old man looked at me like, what are you talking about?
I said, what are you talking about?
Where did you get this history from?
The reason why Harry Truman wanted to do it was to show the Russians what we had.
But they knew what we had because of Klaus Fuchs.
They knew it.
And Stalin said, I don't know why they're doing this.
It's not like I don't know about it.
I know how it works.
And we did it twice?
Twice?
You think that makes sense?
I don't.
I've never understood that.
And if I told you all the other people who disagreed with it, does that change your opinion?
Of course.
You see, that's what history does.
If you don't know history, It doesn't really...
Boy, that really changes things, doesn't it?
Mm-hmm.
And we have this idea that, no, the Japanese would have invaded and all this.
No, it wasn't.
That's not what people said.
But we have people who are sitting back in their beanbag chairs just opining, yep, I think the USA did it.
Yep.
Excuse me, do you have any evidence of anything?
Nope, I don't need evidence.
It's my hunch.
I just know my...
I play my hunches.
Why are you playing your hunches?
I don't know.
I just do.
It's the way I am.
It's the way I roll.
I just do things like that.
Now, I never got to my other good stuff today.
Very quickly.
gotta follow my um um um I'm going to say something very quickly, and I talked about this again.
This got me more than anything else.
This is how you can sign up.
Did you hear the story about, very quickly, a chemistry professor, an organic chemistry professor, NYU, who was fired because there was 80 out of 300 or something students said, your class is too hard.
And he fired him.
I've never heard of that in my life.
The teacher was too hard.
They fired him.
Based upon this kind of a Yelp rating, this crowdsource anarchy, what do you think you should get out?
I thought for sure they would claim some kind of a racist thing or sexist, but I think they just said, no, you're too hard.
When I was in law school, we had this contract.
I went right during the time of paper chase.
Oh, God.
And every...
I never understood it, but there was one guy, one contracts guy, that everybody...
Luckily, there were two classes.
One went one direction, one went the other.
I got the other guy.
And people love to talk about this one contract.
He was the hardest guy.
He was the...
God, did you take his class?
Oh, did you survive?
Oh, my God.
And they were proud of it.
If we had said, hey, we're going to fire this guy.
What?
Fire him?
Fire him because he's too hard.
He's too hard?
What are you talking about?
This is where we are right now.
Do you see this weird kind of a distorted sense of democracy?
Not only democracy, but it's like this weird plebiscite.
You have a petition and we're going to fire.
I don't know if he was tenured or not, but we're going to fire somebody because you don't.
It was too hard?
What?
With great inflation being the big problem, this is, this blew my mind.
And organic chemistry, by the way, was a, that changed my life.
Changed my life.
It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life.
It was so, it was theoretical.
It wasn't even, not a lab, the lab work was boring, but the theory.
You know, trans, Well, cis-trans, cisgender, cis-trans isomers, anybody do that?
Grenier reagents?
Taking a toluene, which is a benzene with a methyl group, and have these wonderful exams where you would have a toluene here, blank, blank, and then a benzene with a carboxyl group, or an ester, or an alcohol, or hydroxyl here, and a bromine here.
How did you get from here to here?
Ah!
You know the steps.
It was all imaginary.
Sugars, Cistran isomers, where you're going like this.
We would be in a class.
This is what it would look like.
This is where you would answer the question by doing it like this.
Was it dextrorotatory?
Was it leverotatory?
Was it?
This is the thing which is the most fantastic.
It was wonderful.
This beautiful, beautiful arm.
I've never done anything in my life, well, academically, I think, that was so mind-expanding.
It really was.
This was organic chemistry.
P-Chem, physical chemistry, even more.
That was organic.
Chemistry was beautiful.
It was wonderful.
And that's what this guy was teaching and it was too hard.
Too hard!
I wouldn't have even thought about petitioning because it's too hard.
Well, that's our fault.
That's where we are.
That's where we are.
Alright, my friends.
I want to thank you.
We have 462 likes.
Thank you very, very, very much.
Remember the moral of this story.
Suspect anything.
Follow a hunch.
Demand proof.
That's all.
Don't be one of these people that says, well, I think, obviously.
No.
There's no such thing as obviously.
We want proof.
That's what we want.
Now, my friends, I also want to tell you, it is so critical for you to go immediately, immediately, Once you are done with this, to Lynn's Warriors on YouTube.
There is a phenomenal...
Is that new video up?
The new one?
You've got to hear what is going on regarding children.
You've got to hear what is happening in the war to protect our children.
You've got to hear.
You cannot believe it.
What is going on with kids is beyond anything you can imagine.

We have, we had word...
That a very, very, very special friend of ours passed away who was a frequent observer of our daily exercise here.
Smartest woman you can imagine.
Absolutely brilliant in seeing the twist.
Here's the way most people saw it.
She saw it like that.
That's exactly the way it was.
And we are thinking about her and her family today.
And remember something.
The greatest thing in the world you can do when you die, and you will, is to leave a legacy.
To leave memories.
To leave respect.
To have people say, I never forget.
He, she taught me this.
I am better because of them.
I learned something because of them.
It's the greatest thing in the world.
It's the greatest legacy.
There is.
Better than gravestones and mausolea and all of that.
In any event, don't forget to follow Mrs. L at Linz, L-Y-N-N-S underscore warriors, Linz warriors, and I'm at Lionel Media.
And one more time, if you want to follow me for my private stuff where I get into nasty adult talk, but I say nasty, not profane, just...
Intriguing.
That's that.
Until then, my friends, have a great and glorious day.
See you tomorrow.
Same bat time, same bat channel.
9 a.m. Eastern Time.
Until then, the monkey's dead.
