Good day, dear friend.
Good day.
A hearty hello and a high-oh silver to you.
Let me just say to you that we have so much to discuss.
First of all, thank you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for joining us.
It would be even greater if you would subscribe to this channel.
Subscribe.
Hit that little bell so you're notified of new broadcasts and the like.
And, like this.
Every single day, the amount of subscriber purges.
It's just...
I'm not going to go into that.
So we need your help, and we thank you for that in advance.
A couple of things here.
I noticed something, in no particular order, that you might or might not have cared to notice, but Caroline's Comedy Club is closing in New York City.
Now, Caroline's Comedy Club is the...
was, was, was at one point...
One of the premier venues.
I mean, really and truly.
There's something that is so interesting.
There's something that's during the heyday.
Comedy, stand-up comedy, with Bud Friedkin's passing and others, really hit it big in various spurts, if you will.
First and foremost, there was regular comedians, Alan King, then Shelley Berman, and you know, the Borscht Belt.
Our dear friend Freddie Roman died.
He was a great, great Borscht Belt classic Catskills performer.
He just passed away.
The Friars Club is padlocked.
The Friars Club is closed.
This was the The preeminent, situs, locus of this.
So the Friars Club, now Caroline's.
And this is the next iteration of the next shift, the next transition.
A couple of things to note.
First and foremost, as I was saying, comedy was very interesting.
Right around Lenny Bruce.
It was so funny, I was talking to somebody last night.
By the way, a special shout out to France.
My new best friend, big viewer, big, big, big, big fan.
Talked to him yesterday about Haiti and what an incredibly brilliant man.
So shout out to you.
A gentleman and a scholar indeed.
But I went to a Christmas party, which I'm going to tell you about.
And I was talking to somebody who was very, very, very, very intelligent.
He said, you know, Lenny Bruce.
Lenny Bruce was, you know, why did he have to be necessarily so filthy?
And I said, Lenny Bruce said nothing that was even remotely filthy.
Lenny Bruce, in his quote, filthiest, was nothing even vaguely reminiscent or similar to anything that you're hearing today.
And that's the guy's honest truth.
But it was a different time then.
He was the first one to buck the system.
Later on, Dick Gregory.
Dick Gregory.
Mort Saul.
Mort Sahl was huge.
Mort Sahl was blacklisted by the Kennedys.
Mort Sahl was the closest one to me, not in terms of her style or intellect or anything like that, but in terms of he was somebody who actually was construed or viewed as being a reactionary against the progressive left,
the liberal left, the Kennedy left, when in fact he called into question He said the way he thought, which was so refreshing, that is I. That is I. So that was very, very important.
Lenny Bruce, Mort Sahl, later on Richard Pryor.
Richard Pryor was incredible.
George Carlin, and of course the extremely underrated and under kind of the Nick Drake of Of comedy is Bill Hicks.
Now, something happens.
I want you to think of a number of things that are happening concomitantly.
A number of things.
First, the utilization of social media.
There were times when people said they wanted to go see somebody because you didn't see.
If you wanted to see Dave Chappelle, you had to see Dave Chappelle.
I've got 20 million Dave Chappelle shows that I can look at.
The early Chappelle, the original Chappelle, the Chappelle show, Chappelle with Joe Rogan, Chappelle by himself.
Chappelle in the last Netflix and the one before that and the one during and then snippets.
I have seen him so many times.
So people might say, Great, I want to see him again, as you should.
It still is something that you've seen before.
So social media, to an extent, has killed this.
I've seen this a million times.
I've seen everything.
I've seen everything there is.
That's number one.
Number two.
Something happened.
And I want you to work with me on this.
And I cannot, for the life of me, figure this one out.
Something happened where some I was an admirer of Jon Stewart.
When he first started, it was one of the best blended shows ever.
Very well written.
Colbert, when he started, was genius.
That iteration of the Bill O 'Reilly bombast was so good.
In fact, it was so good, it was better than Bill O 'Reilly.
Which isn't saying a lot.
So that's that.
Then, Trump.
Everything changed.
Everything changed.
Let me tell you, let me say this again to you, let me repeat, reiterate, re-asseverate.
Everything changed with Trump.
Everything.
What was funny, what was acceptable, what was in, what was out, what was the tolerance.
It does not matter.
I went to, last night, an event.
An event.
It was a Christmas party at an organization that is considered to be Republican.
And a woman, she might have had a few cocktails, too many, but a woman walked up and said, Trump!
I don't want to hear anything about that guy.
And I'm thinking, wait a minute.
What's going on here?
He changed everything.
It's like he created a new nerve.
You know what umami is?
You've heard about that?
Umami.
It's a word they overuse to death.
It's MSG, basically.
But it's like a...
It's not sweet, it's not sour, it's better.
It's almost like a new taste.
Trump inspired almost a new form of resentment or intolerance.
Or love or passion or something.
I don't know.
He changed everything.
The Beatles changed everything.
I think for the better.
Trump changed everything.
Not necessarily for the better.
Not necessarily for him.
But it went crazy.
Back to comedy.
There is a female comic.
I'm not going to mention her name.
One of the most opinionated people.
Which is good, I mean I am too.
Opinionated sometimes implies, parenthetically, opinionated without the basis for such.
Without having any kind of a reason to be opinionated.
You know, baselessly opinionated.
And she's come across, she is the angry, she's like Kathy Griffin on steroids.
Angry, angry, angry.
Not funny, angry.
As many F-bombs as...
Because somehow that's a substitution for wit and somehow that's going to make an otherwise bland kind of story even more fascinating because you've peppered your entire routine with F-bomb sorties.
Okay, fine.
All of a sudden she's doing bits on Warnock and she's endorsing it because...
Wait, wait, wait.
See, where are you coming from?
Because what happens is people necessarily, they enjoy this aggrandizement of self-image, and they think, for reasons I will never understand, they think that somehow they're just...
And it became angry.
And it became weird.
And if you look at the White House correspondence, something happens.
Something very, very weird happens.
I don't understand.
And I don't know if we changed, it changed, or what.
Sometimes things change.
There was a time when, in terms of, remember when Chinese and Asian food came along, people had chop suey.
Remember that?
Chop suey.
Nobody has chop suey anymore.
Chow mein, lo mein, chicken a la king, chicken fricassee.
You don't hear these terms anymore.
Just like names.
Let's think of some great names.
You don't name women anymore.
What are some good ones?
Madge, Midge, Phoebe, Josephine, Harriet, Louise, Agnes, Prunella.
So, the greatest name I ever heard was in one of the dearest women I've ever known in my life.
Her name was Sophronia.
Now, that's the greatest name I've ever heard.
Alright.
Things just change.
and Carolines is closing.
The Friars.
Show business.
Show business people.
The ability to understand what's going on.
Where are the feeding grounds for new What is your thing going to be?
I think Demetri Martin was a genius.
I think Mitch Hedberg was a genius.
Stephen Wright?
Again, not just because of the deadpan routine, but it was so quirky.
And there are others as well.
There are others who are just great.
Some who are not dirty, but they're very funny.
So where do the new ones come from?
Where do the new ones come from?
In the 80s, What happened was, when all of a sudden there was a proliferation of comedy clubs, you know, ha-ha's, ho-ho's, he-he's, yuck-yuck's, ha-ha's, he-ha's, ho-ho-ho's, chuckles, chortles, caca-nations, giggles, side-splitters, yuck-yuck's, you know, they used every permutation of it.
Everybody said, I can do this.
Standing in front of a brick wall, I'm funny.
I'm quirky.
I can be a comedian.
Okay, fine.
And there was this glut.
This absolute glut.
Okay?
And then that kind of settled down.
And then the good ones came up.
But they were kind of...
Now we have podcasting.
Now we have people who...
And I think it's the greatest thing in the world.
It just pushed all these people away.
Why do you want to see necessarily a comic argument when you can watch Joe Rogan?
Is Joe Rogan funny?
I don't know.
I've always thought to myself, I don't really laugh at comedians.
So I don't laugh.
Don't laugh.
So it's a different thing.
Things are changing.
Things are changing.
So where are the new people coming from?
Well, first of all, where are we going to get people who understand humor?
Humor is not anger.
Anger, theoretically, Don Rickles was not anger.
Don Rickles appeared to be, to the untrained eye, but Don Rickles wasn't angry.
Not in the least.
Not in the least.
It was an insult coming.
Jackie Leonard wasn't angry.
You know what I mean?
And those people were...
So, last time at the cutting room, and by the way, I started...
I played Carolines a million times.
I started in almost 30 years ago.
1993.
When comedy really fun.
Played in New Jersey, Staten Island, Queens, Bowling Alley in Queens, Staten Island, Grandpas.
The best comedy venue was Rascals in West Orange.
Loved it.
My first one ever.
The Claridge.
At Atlantic City.
First time ever.
Ever.
Professionally.
The big room.
Claridge.
I played at a place one time in Brooklyn with my bluegrass trio, Lock and Load.
The original Lock and Load.
And it was an Italian restaurant.
I went from the Claridge, it was snowy.
And I said, do you have any lights?
Lights?
It was like a restaurant.
And they turned the heat lamps on us.
That's all they had.
We had this red glow and we're sweating.
It was one of the funniest things.
I played a place that was near, listen to this, it's called I wasn't sure where it was.
There was a Polish fellow I was talking to.
He was a very nice guy.
I said, where is this exactly?
He says, Bartlik.
I said, I beg your pardon?
Butlick.
Butlick?
Is that a slang or something?
He goes, Butlick.
And I knew, this can't be the name, until somebody overheard me.
He goes, no, Bud Lake.
I said, oh!
And it's near Buttsville, by the way.
Just to let you know.
Boodles, Orange County, Chester, New York.
The greatest.
Oh, dear God.
Wonderful.
So, we did all this stuff.
So, on the 14th, like I was saying, last time I was there, we passed these cards out.
And I thought, this is great.
I said, okay, we'll give it a shot.
It was a great room, great venue, cutting room, beautiful.
Passed these cards out.
And, oh my God, were the questions great.
Unbelievable.
I said, that's it.
That's it.
This is the next thing of comedy.
First of all, what I just said is impossible.
Number one, how would I like to go out there and have people ask you questions?
I beg your pardon?
There's one in particular.
You know who I'm talking about?
The Big Mouth comic.
The one you were talking about before?
Can you imagine her coming out?
Can you imagine her coming out and saying, can I ask you a question?
No, I don't know anything.
No, but can I ask you a question?
No, I've got a tight five, a tight ten, a tight...
They always have these tight...
Five-minute routines.
They don't know what's going on.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
There are people, so bad, Mrs. L sometimes will interview people for radio shows.
It's their book.
You're interviewing them.
They want to know from you, what are you going to ask me?
I said, what's about you?
Can you ask?
Can you tell?
Wait a minute.
You wrote a book, and I've got to tell you what I'm going to ask you.
You should be able to...
Okay.
But imagine somebody saying, I want you to come out there, I want you to talk to people.
And there's a reason for this.
First of all, please, I'll tell you this.
Number one, like I said, January 14th, I want you to come see me at the cutting room.
New York, last night we were there.
Oh my God.
In the rain!
You should have seen the rain.
Rockefeller Center, it was packed for the trees.
New York is bouncing.
I'm telling you, ready to go.
But we don't, they don't understand it.
They don't understand a tenth of what you do.
If I ask you, if I took this crowd, you, put them in a room, and then take the regular run in the middle.
I said, you, ask me a question.
They'll ask, we think about Biden, we think about Trump, we think about that.
You'll ask things about, what about Vigano?
What do you think about the Great Resale?
What do you think about, is Harp still operational?
You know stuff that's like, nobody knows this.
You're so much smarter.
And I'm not saying it just to be gratuitous.
I'm not saying it.
It's the truth.
It's the gods and the truth.
Last night it was at an event.
It's very interesting.
It was at an event.
It was ostensibly A Republican organization, and I don't like Christmas, but this was good.
It's a long story.
Very, very nice.
And I'm listening to people, and I realize, my God, I cannot believe how, and this is not a reflection on the organization per se, but some of the people who were there, who identified themselves as Republicans, know absolutely nothing.
They know absolutely nothing.
Nothing.
They don't know anything.
And all they do is they talk about politics almost like, did you see the whoever on Fox?
And the big thing was, should we go to the Newsmax party?
I'm thinking, oh my god.
Sure, go ahead.
Party's a party.
So I ask you a question.
And I ask everybody there, and I ask you this question.
And I ask you this question.
I'm going to ask you this question.
And listen to me.
What is being done right now regarding Trump, Twitter, and the government?
Nothing.
Trump, Twitter, and Congress?
Nothing.
What's Jim Jordan doing?
Nothing.
Oh, I love Jim Jordan.
Why do you love Jim Jordan?
Oh, he's so great.
What does he do?
Josh Hawley.
Jim Jordan yesterday was tweeting, and I keep tweeting back.
Jim, why don't you do something?
Why are you asking me?
Do you think that maybe they owe us an apology?
Jim, you're now the ranking member of whatever committee you're in.
Why don't you do something about this?
Well, I don't do anything.
I just complain.
What about you, Josh Hawley?
This is what I'm trying to tell you.
This is what I'm trying to tell you.
And this is the funniest thing.
You, and you've got to imagine this, in a beautiful room, in this beautiful stately place, and they're playing music, and they're having their milled cider and all this kind of jazz.
And they're doing all this stuff, and I said, you don't do anything.
Well, here's a...
What do you think about Ronna?
And I asked, I said, what about Harvey Dillon versus Ronna McDaniel?
How about the great Mike Lindell?
He's running.
Who's going to run your, because I'm not a Republican, who's going to run your party?
What?
You think Harvey Dillon?
I said, you don't do anything.
You don't do anything.
You go on Fox News.
You don't, you don't, what do you do?
As we speak, say what you want, the Democratic Party.
Or whatever iteration of it is, there may be 20, 30, 40, 50 pieces of legislation lined up, ready to go.
They're constantly churning on new things.
Nothing stops them.
They look to me, I don't fit in.
I said, let me ask you something.
I said, the good news is, well, I said, you do understand that Herschel Walker's a cretin.
I mean, no matter what you say, he's a Boeotian.
Every time he speaks, I cringe.
A part of my soul dies.
But he lost by maybe less than 3%.
I mean, it was a squeaker.
And I don't know anything about any allegations or whatever it was.
But he was...
Don't tell me these Republicans love this guy.
Oh, he's the wonderful...
No, you wanted a rubber stamp.
And I dig it.
And Warnock's the same way.
But this...
I said, what is going on?
You've got a Herschel Walker?
The Democrats had Fetterman and Biden.
What's going on here?
What's going on?
Oh, no, you don't understand.
Herschel Walker is a Cretan.
Come on!
Stop it!
Well, he has a Southern accent.
No, it's not a Southern accent.
You're being euphemistic about this.
He's a Cretan.
It would have been better to have, you know, but the point is that they do nothing.
They do absolutely nothing.
And if you fancy yourself as somehow being the Republican in the House, good luck to you.
Good luck.
Because I don't know where your party is going.
I don't even know what you're talking about.
What you do is you put together these great Pieces of stuff for whatever.
I don't even know what it is.
Hey, that was a great documentary.
Hey, did you see Tucker had a great documentary?
Enough of the documentaries!
Somebody sent me I can't believe this.
Candace Owens talking about phoniness?
Why do men get Botox?
They're fake.
You're talking about fake?
You?
What are you, an expert witness?
What is going on here?
I don't fit in.
I don't even fit in.
I don't even remotely.
So last night, I talked to two people.
One, my new best friend from Haiti.
Another one was from Tehran.
And so help me, you have not lived until you have spoken to somebody.
From another country.
Their level of understanding is superb.
It doesn't matter where they are.
One's a physician, one's an Uber driver.
Superb.
They understand it.
They get it.
Did you ever hear that here?
No.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Let me ask you something.
I've got a brand new...
The sponsor coming up I want to talk to you about.
I brought this up.
Who knows what an EMP is?
Yes or no?
EMP.
E-M-P.
Yes or no?
One for yes, two for no.
Have you heard that?
Do you know what it is?
Do you recognize it?
And please, if you don't know what it is, emergency police?
No, no.
It's close.
I'm not asking you to guess what it is, and it's not an acronym.
It's an initial, it's an abbreviation.
What is E-M-P?
What does that mean?
What does that mean?
Have you ever heard it?
Okay.
Good.
You've heard it.
Dick Bork, Dick Long, Carol DeJong.
Yep.
Look at this.
Very good.
You've heard of this.
This is incredible.
And by the way, if you haven't heard something, do not ever say, always say, I don't know what that word means.
Or I don't know what that is.
Please.
It's a nuclear bomb?
No.
But...
Sort of.
Maybe.
Could be.
EMP.
Electromagnetic pulse.
The ability to fry the grid.
Kind of a low-level, low-orbital.
Could be nuclear.
E1, E2, E3.
Fries the grid.
It's like an electric...
Remember the Carrington class?
Solar flare?
Geo-electric in 18, whatever it was.
Fried all the telegraphs.
EMP.
Electromagnetic pulse.
Look at this.
See this?
You know this.
You've heard it.
Last night, I cannot tell you, I've never heard of this.
What are you talking about?
You're too busy watching Newsmax.
You're watching...
I don't know what you're watching.
Think about this.
Flyover.
Where would you like to fly over?
Here?
Here's China.
Okay.
Fly over.
Detonate.
Kind of a suborbital.
Below 300 miles or whatever it is.
Right there.
A nice big nuclear blast.
Some ionizing monster.
And in a nanosecond you get an E1 level, then an E2, then an E3.
And it is fried.
Everything is fried.
You're okay.
It doesn't affect you.
It's not nuclear.
Your brain waves...
And what do you have to do to protect against that?
No.
We'll talk about that later.
They looked at me.
The fact is, you've never heard it.
There was a doctor who was talking about Dorian Gray.
Never heard it.
This guy's in his 60s.
No, it was a young group.
There are certain things where they say, I've heard that.
I've heard it.
I'm not sure.
Ectopic pregnancy.
I've heard that.
I don't know.
I can't maybe describe it.
I've heard it.
That's a very good thing.
Recognition versus recall.
Very important.
I've heard this.
I know what that is.
Yes, I've heard that.
Yes, yes, yes.
Glioblastoma.
I've heard somebody.
That means you've been paying attention.
The trogs.
That's a group, right?
I mean, you know, wild thing?
I don't know, but I've heard them.
That's the thing.
You've heard We one time, it was on a radio station, and there was a cohort of co-hosts.
That's one of the things that people do on radio.
Whenever there's a good show, some program director says, well, if one host is good, let's put on three.
Have that zoo format.
People who are just incompatible, don't get along.
Let's just mix them together.
They're all fungible.
So you have three times.
And there was a woman one time who asked whether Mars had a sun.
Asked this on the air.
Never knew basic core information.
So as we're talking, and I'm having the time, I'm going around.
I'm at a place Subsumed under the titular rubric of Republican.
I won't go into detail.
I said, what happens if there's a pulse?
Has anybody talked about that?
What do we do?
No idea.
No idea.
And then, as we move later on, I said, let me ask you about this.
Let's talk about hydro-imperialism.
Anybody know about that?
No.
About water?
Remember Gaddafi?
Remember the whole notion of the Nubian sandstone aquifer in the water?
Okay, maybe not.
And then we talked about food.
This is the best.
And I'm walking around and people are just getting away from me because they're saying, see that guy?
Don't talk to him.
He is Mr. Doom.
I say, excuse me.
This is not Doom.
This is like, you know.
Because you see, what they want is a scale.
What I want to give you is diet information.
What do I mean?
If you want to lose weight, it's good to have a scale.
But that's not enough.
A scale just tells you how much you weigh.
It doesn't tell you how to lose weight.
You won't lose weight with a scale.
It just tells you.
That's Fox News.
It just tells you.
It just gives you, hey, did you know this?
Okay.
Is anybody going to do anything?
No.
Don't you think...
I mean, even Walter Cronkite kind of said, so to speak, he wanted you to know a little bit about how to fix things.
So anyway, so as we're talking, and this is so great, so wonderful, I said, so let me ask you a question.
How long would you...
In the event of a store is closed.
Food.
How long would you have?
How long can you eat right now?
As is.
How long?
Let's assume you cannot go into anything.
Imagine this.
You're at home.
Something happens.
Supply chain.
There's something with Ukraine.
I don't know.
And your Acme is closed and Piggly Wiggly is closed and Publix is closed and Whole Foods is closed and you start seeing empty shelves and people start panicking.
Because remember, we go crazy with toilet paper.
How long right now?
Let's just assume I just closed your doors and left you inside your home.
What would you do?
How long would you survive?
What would you have in your cupboards?
What would you have available right now?
And how long would it last?
How many people in your family?
Four?
Four, okay.
Can you do 30 days?
You have 30 days worth of food?
30 days.
30. Let's say I just locked you in.
You couldn't go outside.
You could not go outside.
Maybe there's an environmental factor.
Maybe there's something.
Who knows?
You're a shelter-in-place, which is what...
Shelter-in-place, by the way, was originally, the term was used, if there is an event like a...
A crazed killer running around, or a bomb, or poisonous gas, or something.
That was shelter in place.
How long would you let them?
Well, I said, 30 days.
Do you have 30 days food per person?
30 days.
Per person.
Do you have breakfast, lunch, dinner, varieties, ready to go?
Can you reuse them?
Can you do that?
Do you have this?
I said, you probably got some spaghetti, right?
Maybe in your larder, in your cupboard, in your pantry, you've got your stuff.
Maybe you got some beans, right?
You got some stuff.
A lot of spices, right?
Cake mix and stuff in your freezer, okay?
But remember, you're locked in.
You can't go outside.
Do you think you would ever need emergency food?
Do you think you would ever come up...
And they looked at me, and I wish...
I wish...
I wish I could give you an explanation of what the look is.
You know when somebody's speaking a language you don't understand?
You look at them, and it's just...
You don't know what they're saying.
But you're not saying, what are they saying?
What kind of a...
What words are...
You idiot.
It's a language.
You know what it is.
You know it's a language.
You don't sit there and...
But these people look at me with a look that is fear, ignorance, and bemusement and confusion.
What?
Republicans.
Now, I haven't talked to any Democrats.
I don't know.
They're probably just as bad.
EMP clueless.
Water?
Water shortage?
Water?
Clueless.
Clueless.
And food, clueless.
So, now's as good a time as any.
My friends, right now, I am telling you.
I can't tell you enough.
Go to preparewithlionel.com.
There's a three-month emergency food supply.
It's there.
Ready to go.
You can save $250.
You haven't had a deal like this since 2019.
There it is.
It's perfect.
What are you waiting for?
What?
Some people say, and I don't understand it.
Well, we're going to our home.
Forget your home and wherever it is.
Think ahead.
Use your ability to think maybe differently.
PrepareWithLionel.com Do you think this is a joke?
And I'm putting it up right there for you.
This is the link right there.
I don't understand it.
I just don't understand.
What is going on here?
Do you see what's happening with the world?
Do you see what's happening?
I don't understand this.
Is anybody talking about this?
No.
Because what happens is, listen to this.
As soon as you talk about that, you're called a prepper.
You're called like an idiot.
Like you're crazy or something.
Have you ever talked to a hunter?
People who are hunting.
I love these.
Watch a hundred.
Great videos.
One guy had a lighter.
And with black tape.
And when you...
Unruled the tape.
They went sewing thread and this.
It's like being able to anticipate something that's going up in the future.
Do you know what's happening right now?
Do you know what people do?
They just love to laugh at people.
I would say a bulk of, a huge bulk of the conservative media today is making fun of CNN.
Laughing that CNN is losing their job.
They're laughing at this.
They think it's funny.
That there are people out of a job at Christmas time.
They think it's funny.
I don't understand this.
For the life of me, I don't understand this.
Why are you laughing at this?
I hate these people.
Because they reduce it to this...
Now let me say something right now.
This is the best of the best of the best of the best.
And this is why this is called The Curious Role...
Of Scotus in the 21st century.
Did you happen to hear the most beautiful girl?
Sorry, Charlie Rich.
Did you happen to hear what Donald Trump said about the Constitution?
*laughs*
I've got to read this to you.
Please, please, please, It was this thing he said about Trump and the...
Donald Trump's political death wish.
This is from the Washington Examiner.
This is Byron York.
I disagree a little bit, but let me read this to you.
Here is the tweet.
And the tweed goes something like this.
Um...
Where is this?
This one tweet about the...
Oh, God.
It's the idea of removing the Supreme Court.
Oh, for the love of God.
Where is this?
Oh, here we go.
Listen to this.
This is Trump's tweet.
Let me read this.
This is from Truth Social.
I don't know if Trump wrote this.
I hope he did because if he let somebody else write this, So, with the revelation of massive and widespread fraud and deception and working closely with big tech companies, the DNC, and the Democratic Party, do you throw the presidential election results of 2020 out and declare the rightful winner?
Or do you have a new election?
A massive fraud of this type and magnitude allows for determination...
Listen to this.
A massive fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution.
Our great founders did not want and would not condone false and fraudulent elections.
Do you know that elections are not even mentioned in the Constitution?
A massive fraud of this type allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, and articles, articles of the Constitution, article 1, article 2, Even those found in the Constitution?
No!
No!
What are you?
What?
No!
Listen to this.
So, with the revelation of massive and widespread fraud and deception, and working closely with big tech companies, the DNC and the Democratic Party, do you know, do you throw the presidential elections out of 2020?
Why would you do that?
What is he talking about?
Now, there's a two-parter to this.
There's a two-parter.
What is he even talking about?
Why would you even...
What?
First of all, an Elon Musk Twitter thing doesn't mean you're going to throw out the 2020 election.
It doesn't make any sense.
But number two, and this is the most important, do you...
Byron York says, this is the end, this is it.
Is Trump able to say anything that would ultimately result in his death knell as a candidate?
No!
No!
So he can say anything.
You mean to tell me, out of everything he's tweeted, out of everything he's said, he's bulletproof when it comes to anything.
Why is that worse than anything he's ever said?
Because people always speak in this hyperbolic tone.
So the question is the curious role of SCOTUS.
The Supreme Court is going to be the most important thing you've ever seen, ever.
And that's why, and the Democrats are very smart, because what they're doing is they're scrambling and they're saying, let's pass gay rights or gay marriage guarantees in the codify row, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, which is exactly within their purview, exactly within the rules, because they're smart enough to do something.
What they're not doing is going on CNN and just talking about it.
They're not just going on MSDNC and laughing with whoever.
They're not.
They're actually doing something.
Republicans, talk about it.
So the Supreme Court's going to be, if you don't get to, Democrats say, Supreme Court, that Thomas and Alito said, there is no guarantee to gay marriage, anti-Sodby statutes, was it, what was that?
Texas.
Lawrence, I think?
He said this.
And we can argue whether substantive due process applies, if at all.
We Democrats say, okay, fine, thank you.
We're on it.
And they pass legislation.
That's the issue.
That is the issue.
You hear what I'm saying?
So what's Jim Jordan doing?
Nothing.
Josh Hawley?
Nothing.
Marsha Blackburn?
John Kennedy?
Ted Cruz.
Ted Cruz took some pictures with...
By the way, Herschel Walker.
See what you want.
No landslide there.
The whole rematch was because it was like less than 1%.
I mean, it was really something.
So, to his credit.
What did they do?
They do nothing.
Nothing.
Now, here's the new one.
Ronald McDaniel is out.
Harmeet Dillon seems to be it.
She is on her way out.
Oh, Lee Zeldin is not running for RNC chair against Ronald McDaniel for now.
Lee Zeldin is the biggest wet flatus of them all.
He is the biggest drip.
He was handed one of the greatest elections, crime and whatever it is.
I don't even know what the hell he's talking about.
But they said, oh, Lee Zeldin was responsible for it.
No, he was not.
Anyway, Ronald McDaniel is funny.
Harmeet Deldin looks like it's...
And, and, you know who the third person is?
To run the RNC?
To chair the RNC?
That's right.
Your friend and mine, Mr. Mike Lindell.
That's right.
The pillow guy.

My friends, the Supreme Court SCOTUS is going to be bigger than anything.
Yesterday, I think yesterday, we had a big bankruptcy case.
One of the most important cases in creditors' rights anybody has ever even seen.
Do you understand this?
Huge!
Huge!
The Supreme Court is going to be bigger and more important than anything you've ever seen.
Oh, you're thinking about Dobbs.
And by the way, did anybody hear about who leaked that out?
Of course not.
It's all forgotten.
So the curious rule of SCOTUS in the 21st century will be probably to, they are going to be looking for and granting cert to as many issues as possible that get to them.
And don't be surprised if things that you thought, because people just assumed.
Don't forget 1965, Griswold against Connecticut.
Can the state of Connecticut Ban contraceptives, even regarding married couples?
Yeah.
Not until William O. Douglas came along and said, nope, we're going to create privacy.
Sure they can.
There's nothing in the Constitution about the vote.
Nothing about women.
Nothing about one man, one vote.
Nothing about how many justices.
Nothing about the Air Force.
Nothing about zoning.
There's so much.
It's not in there.
There are general precepts.
Very, very critical.
Very, very important.
So Trump is wrong when he says let's suspend the Constitution.
No, no, no, no, no.
But watch.
SCOTUS is going to be the biggest thing in your life.
Alright, my friends.
And today is December the 7th.
A day that will live in infamy.
For reasons that you will never know, I will be discussing What I think really, really happened on my private channel at Lionel Media.
I'm not going to do it here.
No way.
But I will leave you with one thought.
Japan knew it was going to lose against the United States.
It knew.
It knew it had no ability to fight us.
But it attacked us nonetheless.
Why is it?
Why would they do that?
They're not going to do anything.
They're not going to win.
Whether the blockade or not, the blockade, the embargo, it doesn't matter.
Why did they do that?
Why would a country basically commit suicide like that?
That's the issue you're never going to hear anybody talk about today.
Never.
But if you want to hear that, that's my private channel, rynelmedia.com.
