My friends, I'm going to pick up from what I was doing before.
I was in the middle of a brilliant, brilliant monologue, a brilliant peroration of everything, and had to...
Do some business, as it were.
But I am back, and I hope everybody's back again.
Let me start off again.
I don't fit into this world.
I don't fit into this world.
I never really did.
And I don't fit into this political climate because my politics has absolutely nothing to do, nothing, nothing to do with Anything that you would recognize.
Okay?
Nothing.
Nothing that I do has anything even vaguely associated with anything that you recognize as anything you've seen on TV or whatever.
It doesn't exist.
I don't exist in the world.
I'm trouble to everyone because I don't fit in.
I don't have a label.
I immediately dislike anybody who represents the popular.
It's who I am.
I can't take this.
I don't want to be a part of the Fox News crew or the Newsmax or the CNN or the left or the right or any of these people.
The conspiracy-minded folks that I'm always associated with being a part of, they leave me completely flat.
Completely, absolutely flat.
And this is the thing which I want to explain to you, right off the bat.
If you expect to be a part of this conversation, as we say, this stupid word, let us have a conversation.
You better break away from it.
Let me start off by talking about what I had mentioned initially, and that is Donald Trump and this lunacy referred to as the NFTs.
These non-fungible tokens, these superhero cards.
I don't understand any of this.
I don't understand what he's trying to do.
I don't understand the purpose behind this.
I don't know what he's trying to accomplish.
I don't understand it.
Understand it.
I have defended him more than anyone.
I have suffered because of my support of him more than anyone.
I believe I am on.
I believe I am on.
Do you see me on?
Well, yes.
Hang on a second.
Let me see.
Live chat.
I believe I am on.
Let me see something here.
Let me refresh this.
I'm trying my best to not be angry because when I have my mornings wasted by stupidity, it's something that I have a hard time coming back from.
I'm not one who is angry per se, but in any event, that's the way I am.
Let me know if you see this.
This is the beautiful part about life property.
There we are.
Yes, there we go.
Futon or Futon Collective or Futon is there first of all.
And I send that to you by the way.
That's my NFT.
Antoine, thank you.
Let me know.
There's a wonderful mob YouTube I watch that is so funny.
It is so bad and I'm addicted.
And it starts off with 20 minutes of, how you doing there?
A futon lady?
A wired sock 1221?
How are you?
In any event.
I can do it.
Let me try to regroup.
Let me try to collect my thoughts.
Let me try to focus on this.
Because I've got about 9,000 things.
Let me just say something before I get to this.
The inability for people to communicate is something that I never, ever, ever am shocked about.
The inability for people to communicate.
Just give me a time out here.
There's nothing to do with politics or Trump or whatever.
This is just in real life.
I'm finding out, and don't take this the wrong way, that I hate people.
I think people are stupid.
I think we're becoming more and more stupid.
And I think...
I think it's getting worse.
By the way, futant, by the way, is a word created by Timothy Leary.
By the way, futant, this is called a neologism.
A new word.
And it's almost like a portmanteau.
It's almost like a combination of...
Of a future mutant combined.
So thank you.
I always like to learn new words.
How many of you were familiar with NFTs?
Anybody?
Were you familiar with NFTs and this notion of digital currency?
$500,000, half a million dollars that Trump apparently has raised through these superhero cards.
This is a wonderful thing.
I want to...
To learn more, obviously, about this.
But this is going to be nothing but trouble.
And this spells scam.
Not Trump, but this notion of digital stuff.
And if SBF doesn't tell you what to do, or does it give you cause for pause, nothing will.
By the way, it's a miserable, miserable day here in New York City.
We purchased our Ed yesterday.
We have a brand new tree, Ed.
Ed is the name of our yearly tree.
It was wonderful.
He's a mighty, mighty tree.
Standing there, we just picked him out and we adopted Ed.
We brought Ed home and Ed, we're going to lighten up.
Huh?
He picked us out.
We have our Christmas music on and we're doing this.
It's a very, very important time.
Very, very important time.
And if you were watching before, I apologize in case you just tuned in.
I had some idiots.
It's a long story.
So let me start off with Trump.
I don't know where Trump is going.
I don't know what he's trying to do.
I don't know.
But as I said before, I will take Trump over, over anybody in the Democratic Party.
Let me just say this right off.
Right off the bat, I will take Trump over any Democrat.
And if it's not Trump, if it's DeSantis, if it's whatever, I don't care.
If it's Howard McNair who played Floyd the Barber, I'll take Howard McNair.
Let me just explain this to you.
It's nothing really personal.
But Trump does things every now and then that I don't understand.
First of all, he has sometimes this...
I told you in 2020, or prior to this, that he's going to lose this.
He's not focusing.
He's not giving us a message.
You got mad at me.
You didn't like what I had to say.
Then, I found out later on that when he would have these meetings and would have these...
Oh, I don't know what the word is.
He would have these rallies.
I always wonder, what is he doing with this?
What is the purpose behind this?
Where is he going with this?
What is happening?
What is he trying to tell us?
Is this about him or me or us or the worldview of the world?
We don't know.
Horrible!
But people loved him because he had these folks, these people who just loved him like a rock star.
Then you had the Bannon group, and Bannon's upset with him.
Oh my God.
Along with Sebastian Gorka.
Dr. Gorka.
Good evening.
He's upset.
Wow.
Oh my.
I don't know if you think these people are running for office.
I don't know.
But I've never understood this.
I've never understood...
Where is the consensus of opinion?
GOP's no good.
Ronna McDaniel, do you see where they're doing a hit piece?
Not hit piece, they're doing the truth on her because of the expenditures.
She's out of the way.
It looks like Harmeet Dillon, great, wonderful.
She's in there.
Terrific.
You've got these other aspects of the Republican Party, the Douglas Murrays and the Rich Lowrys.
They don't like Trump.
And they don't like Marjorie Taylor Greene because they tend to be too, I don't know, obstreperous or rude.
So what?
Marjorie Taylor Greene, I will take in a heartbeat over anybody in the Democratic Party.
The only thing Marjorie Taylor Greene has got to remember, Stay away from Matt Gaetz.
That's it.
You'll see.
That's all I'm saying.
That's one thing which is important.
The Republicans do not have a cohesive message.
They don't have a cohesive audience.
They don't have a cohesive anything.
And if Trump is supposedly their guy, these cards look, frankly, stupid.
We can't afford to look...
Stupid.
Now, I don't understand what this is.
Who is advising him?
Let me give you a little bit of something.
This is from Newsweek yesterday.
Listen to this.
The revelation that former President Donald Trump's major announcement involves the sale of $99 Trump-themed digital trading cards has prompted his former advisor, Steve Bannon, to say he can't do this anymore.
Further, Bannon called for those responsible for the announcement to be fired today on his War Room podcast on Thursday.
During a discussion with fellow ex-Trump advisors Steve Cortez and Sebastian Gorka, Bannon lamented that, quote, nobody even talked about Trump plans to battle the left-wing censorship regime.
If elected in 2024, after being overshadowed by the announced sale of the NFT trading cards, which depict the former president as a superhero.
Quote, I can't do this anymore, Bannon said after interrupting a clip of Trump's NFT announcement video.
He's one of the greatest presidents in history, but I gotta tell you, whoever, business partner or anybody on the comms team, communications team, And anybody at Mar-a-Lago, and I love the folks down there, but we're at war.
They ought to be fired today.
And hey, this is a quote, and hey, you don't have three bigger supporters than Cortez Bannon and Seb Gorka, and we're getting blown up all day on this.
Gorka shook his head in approval as Bannon denounced the video before agreeing that the announcement never should have happened.
Well, I guess that means something because Dr. Seb Gorka is important.
Now, let me stop by telling you right off the bat.
I don't know and I don't have this love affair that you have with these people.
I don't have...
Anybody that I look to in terms of what they say or a show that I watch or listen to, with the exception of, I told you, the first segment of Tucker Carlson, who, by the way, time out just for a second, attempted last night...
To scratch the surface of the JFK assassination.
Gave it 13 minutes, 13, before bringing in Miranda Devine to slam the brakes on it as it drove into the wall, splat!
And she talked about the Hunter Biden laptop thing.
These people have no idea what they're doing.
Tucker, you're a good man.
You're kind of feeling your way around.
And you are obviously far head and shoulders above everybody at Fox News.
That's not saying a lot.
Okay?
Understand the caliber.
When you're putting documentaries on the life of Jesus, now, if you want to go to the life of Jesus, and it's a fascinating subject, Fox Nation, I'm sorry.
That's like highlights.
That's like Jesus for dummies or something.
I'm sorry.
But that's part of the image.
The image of who we are.
We're American.
We love our troops.
This leaves me flat.
This seems goofy.
It's amateurish.
You're playing a role.
You don't need this stuff, okay?
But Tucker attempts to bring up the Kennedy assassination.
You can't handle that.
And if you really want to handle other things as well, would you like to...
And by the way, I've got to stop myself right now.
Because on my channel, I go into detail.
We go into things in history...
And how they have to be addressed and what most people don't know about them.
Most people have no idea.
Whether it's climate change or 9-11 or JFK or the Vietnam War or anything for that matter.
Anything.
Believe me when I tell you this.
The stories are fascinating.
And there's nobody.
Look at me when I tell you this.
There's nobody at Fox News or Newsmax, the distant little brother, Who would even remotely scratch the surface of the real stuff that'll keep you up at night?
Oh, believe me.
Believe me.
But you've been so conditioned to stay away from anything worthwhile, you don't want to go there.
And I understand.
I understand this.
But, going back to Trump, I don't know what you're doing.
I don't know if you're serious.
I'll have to wait and see.
But this superhero NFT stuff, I don't know what the hell this...
What are you doing?
Whose idea was this?
What, Don Jr.?
Was it Kimberly's?
That one?
What's going on here?
You've got the whole crew.
Ivanka wants to just sell her stuff.
She just wants to get me out of here.
Which, I can't blame her.
Along with that creepy Jared.
Seriously.
Trump makes it harder and harder and harder to say, I'm with you, babe.
I'm with you.
Because it's this judgment stuff.
And you don't like that.
You get very upset because you get personality focused.
I've never seen anything like it.
You can't handle, and I'm going to say this, you have a hard time when somebody says something bad about, like these frauds like this, Candace Owens, You go crazy because that's my friend.
Politics is not about an anchor or a show.
Politics is not...
I've never seen anything like it.
People confuse, for example, Alex Jones with the news.
No, Alex Jones was a presenter or whatever show.
There's nothing to do with the news.
During the Vietnam War, during the convention, They never confused Gore Vidal and William F. Buckley with Lyndon Johnson or with Nixon or with the White House.
Today we do.
Today we've reduced everything to this I don't know what the word is to this basic idiotic demented Personality something or other.
It's weird.
Look at how you have been falling for this Elon Musk story.
And I'm telling you, you don't understand this.
Please, don't take it the wrong way.
You don't understand Elon Musk.
This is a limited hangout.
And, in many respects, so is Fox News.
Give them a little bit and create the illusion that we've broken the story and this is big news.
Hey, did you hear what happened?
Tucker talked about the JFK files.
No, he didn't.
Oh, yes, he did.
No, he said he was, but he didn't.
He wants you to think he broke the news.
That's not the news.
That's not even close to it.
Do you really want to talk about that?
Are you sure?
No.
No, no, of course not.
No, no.
Everybody's so afraid.
Look who the people are, by the way.
This is the most important.
Look who the people are who are speaking out against this whatever the position we have is regarding Ukraine.
Barry Posen in Foreign Affairs magazine.
Henry Kissinger.
John Mearsheimer.
The best.
Jonathan Powell, Noam Chomsky, is he a right-winger?
Scott Ritter, the late Stephen Cohen, Colonel Douglas McGregor, and the Dean of America's Russian experts, George Kennan, remember that, Mr. X?
This was the fellow who came up, the author of Containment?
Do you...
The New York Times did a whole piece on propaganda.
Do you know what the word propaganda is?
What is propaganda?
What is propaganda?
Define propaganda.
Do you know what it means?
Do you know what it means?
Propaganda is from the 1600s, 1622.
Pope Gregory the 16th or the 15th.
And it's called the Propagation of faith.
It was this congregation, this Vatican, that promoted the propagation of faith.
Propaganda is public relations.
And in our country, during World War II, in Hollywood, Walt Disney, Frank Capra, Louis Mayer, Jack Warner, John Wayne, who, remember, did you ever see the Green Berets during Vietnam?
We need to take stock and redefine and explain to people what all of this means.
But you're not going to do this because you have TV shows that only have a minute, two minutes, maybe a minute with some, I don't know, somebody who's, whatever.
Because Americans don't want to learn.
Learning is boring to them.
It's dry.
It's very technical.
Let me stop for a second right there.
I really think you need some professional help.
And I mean, not because you're crazy, but you need professional thinkers here because you're not getting it.
Now, a couple of things first, right off the bat.
I've got to tell you something.
There is still time for you.
Christmas is just literally, actually, around the corner.
Well, not literally, but anyway, it's pretty soon.
And nothing says loving more than merchandise.
Official Lionel Nation merchandise.
At the Lionel Nation store.
Did you know that?
It's true.
And there it is for you.
And I'm putting a link right there for you.
It says something.
This is the most indestructible mug you have ever seen.
You can grow koi.
You can have teams and schools of koi.
You can do herb gardens in here.
It's that incredible.
That's number one.
Number two, on January the 14th at the cutting room, I'm going to be there.
And what I'm going to be doing is again telling you something that nobody is going to talk about.
And I will talk about things that are verboten if it happens.
Do you know what I could do if you would allow me to tell you what I know about JFK?
You would be riveted.
Riveted.
But I don't think Dave Chappelle is going to be doing that, or Jon Stewart, or Colbert, or Louis C.K. They don't know anything about this.
That's the link right there, January the 14th, and it's on the description section here.
I want to talk to you.
And the story of stories that I will spellbind you, I'm not going to do it necessarily unless it comes up.
And this is one thing that Tucker will never...
Never discuss.
It's 9-11.
And it's not even what you think.
Because you think when I say that, you think, oh, I know where he's going.
No, you don't.
You don't know anything about it.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
Marshall McLuhan said something which is so important.
Little lies are very hard to keep secret.
But big lies are easy because of our incredulity.
Keep that in mind.
Keep that in mind.
And I also want to tell you something which is the most important.
And I think this is so great.
And I'm so...
This is something which I find is to me the most fascinating of fascinating subjects.
And I have been talking about this forever.
Forever.
And this is electromagnetic pulses.
EMPs.
This is a story.
This is the most incredible story, bar none.
There is a company called EMP Shield, and they've invented a device that you can hook up to your vehicle, that can protect you and your family against EMPs.
The technology has undergone testing at Keystone Compliance, which is a military-certified facility, is listed by the Department of Homeland Security.
And the information is there to protect your home and your generator and your solar system and your RV and your ham radio.
People were saying, you know, ham radios are really critical during times of problems.
Well, guess what?
That's fried, too.
The grid.
There was a whole story about the grid.
EMPs.
If you read about this, other people are saying, oh, there's no such thing as that.
Really?
An electromagnetic pulse?
Kind of a suborbital nuclear bomb, low yield, that fries the grid?
What are you talking about?
So, look at this.
It is fabulous.
The most interesting.
Just look at the technology that's here.
And people just, they run away from it.
It's like when you talk about food.
When you talk about food, it's the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
Oh, I don't want to hear about that.
No, you should.
No, no, no.
EMPs.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
What do you think?
What do you need to know?
Don't you read this?
Apparently not.
So, there is the link.
They are just, just see for yourself what I'm talking about.
I have been thinking about this.
I've been saying, dear God, Because, you know, whenever there's a power shortage, if it snows, when the power lines go by, Con Ed is expected to fix, what are we going to do?
I don't know.
Our cable's out, our TV's out of...
Imagine that everywhere.
So pay attention to that.
Now, as I said to you, I did a...
I'm doing a...
A piece about a discussion I had with a young lady who is very bright and she represents what you would call the woke society.
And I teach you how do you deal with somebody who brings up climate change?
What do you say?
I'm going to show you.
I deal with it at Lionel Media.
I show you this.
This is how to do it.
This is how to lure them in.
Whatever the subject is, whether it's Trump, it's how do you critically think?
How do you handle it?
Is it cross-examination?
Not really.
But you're going to meet these people.
You're going to deal with these people.
There's so much that's out there.
I'm telling you.
It's just...
Now, one of the things which is also important and critical to know is that right now in the middle, And this is what people don't like.
In the middle of everything that's going on, do you know who are the problems?
The Republican Party.
The Democrats are so cohesive.
They're so coalesced.
They enjoy a coalition.
They enjoy an absolute functioning, for lack of a better word, a functioning confluence, I guess you might say.
They are Absolutely the most dedicated to one message.
They never talk about themselves.
You'll never hear anybody on CNN talk about AOC versus the squad versus this.
Oh, no.
But you'll hear Douglas Murray talk against MTG or Rich Lowry talk about Trump.
And you'll always...
And even within...
The Republican Party.
Well, is it Ronald McDaniel?
I don't know.
Harvey Dillon?
Maybe Mike Lindell?
Even then, you've got factions.
And now you've got Bannon, who's upset with Trump, because Trump doesn't know what he's doing.
There's no coordination.
Now let me ask you something.
A very simple question.
What is it that you want?
What do you want from your country?
What do you want from the future?
What do you want?
Do you want this?
Do you just want to go and listen to your TV shows?
Do you just want to, like, you know, Judge Jeanine or whatever?
Is that it?
Is that the level?
It's okay.
You can tell me if you say, look, I don't know anything about this.
I just want to watch, I've got my favorite shows and that's it and I don't know what the hell's going on.
Okay.
If you say, look, I really don't know anything about this.
I honestly, God, I don't know.
My father was a Republican.
I guess I'm a Republican.
These people scare me.
Okay, fine.
Do you know what's happening next?
This is a battle for the heart and the soul of our country.
And I'm not being dramatic.
It is a battle.
For the heart and the soul for the next two, three generations.
This generation's gone.
This generation is gone.
Listen to what I'm saying.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
This generation is gone.
We're through.
We're out of the picture.
My group's gone.
The people who are now 30-year-olds, maybe in the 40s, forget it.
They were weaned on COVID, on masks, on stay-at-home and shelter-in-place and remote learning and quiet quitting.
We're done.
We are done.
I can't say this enough.
We're done.
This is scary, scary stuff.
Okay?
We are so...
Absolutely.
This is, I have never seen anything like this.
And what we need is somewhere, some unified place where we say, alright, everybody stay home if you're not interested in getting to the truth.
I know that sounds kind of highfalutin, I know it sounds like that, but it's absolutely true.
We've got to figure out a way to tell people we mean business with this.
So we had Trump.
With this NFT, which is so stupid, I don't even know what to say.
It's just, it's mind-boggling.
Even the left doesn't know.
It's like, what is this?
Superhero?
Trading cards?
NFTs?
What?
He makes it so difficult sometimes for us.
He really does.
But, remember, if he's it, I'll take him.
I'll take him.
And by the way, one thing, remember, here's what I want you to listen to.
Listen to me very carefully.
You're going to have some friend of yours today say, hey, how about that Trump, those cars?
He goes, yeah, you know what, that is kind of stupid.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But let me tell you a couple of things.
First, and this is important, first, they will tell you, what you will say is, Hunter Biden decided to sell paintings.
Of him, that he did, which he may or may not have done, selling for two, three, four hundred thousand, whatever, a piece.
That is money that is influence peddling that goes directly to him so that he can then meet with the White House occupant and do something which is patently illegal.
And that doesn't bother you?
You're saying that NFTs, this is a private citizen who decides to sell this.
Okay, fine.
Is it stupid?
Maybe it is.
Other celebrities did it.
That bothers you.
But Hunter Biden doesn't?
What's the difference?
Ask them.
And say, no, no, no, no, answer my question.
Hunter Biden, the president's son, while the subject of, you can read Miranda Devine for the millionth time, but the Hunter laptop and everything else, is selling paintings?
Painting.
He can't paint.
You don't see this?
That doesn't mean anything.
Well, he's a private citizen.
No.
No.
He's the bag man for his father.
That doesn't get your attention?
But Trump's NFTs do?
That's the answer.
That's the answer.
Okay?
And this is the part...
This is the part where I don't know anymore how we seek to function.
Okay?
Any further.
In any event.
And by the way, I mentioned before the great, the great Mr. Mike Lindell.
Two things I want to mention.
Mike Lindell with MyPillow.com promo code Lionel.
That's right.
And I say this proudly.
Look at what he's got.
Look at the closeout and overstock sale.
It will blow your mind.
So you go right here.
I'm going to give you this link right now.
And I say it proudly.
This is capitalism.
You better believe it.
And he has done, he has built this company into this monumental colossus the old-fashioned way.
Hard work and brilliant marketing.
You got a problem with that?
I don't.
MyPillow.com, did you know that last year their, I think it was their slippers, sold more than anything because they're one of a kind.
That's that.
And one more thing, and by the way, I love, I love telling you about items.
I also love to sell stuff.
Why?
It's what America is.
It's called capitalism.
I love it.
There's some stuff that, I don't know about that.
Not too crazy about that.
I'm not too sure about this one.
But what I've always believed in, and I've been asking for the longest time, I said I believe in food emergencies, preparedness.
That to me was a no-brainer.
Years ago, we had in our family, there was a wonderful woman.
She was a Mormon.
She was ancient.
She was my friend's grandmother.
And she would always talk about...
You know, in case of an emergency, and I used to think as a kid, I'd say, what are you...
Food?
I just because I kind of thought that, well, food's like water, and you just turned it on, and there it is.
And I've always believed it.
And the more I learn, the more I read, especially internationally, when I read what ESGs are doing to the notion of food and the like, it makes me think, my God, this is so critical.
This is so important.
This is so beyond.
Critical.
Beyond important.
And it is.
It truly is.
And that's why the best is for you to go right now.
Very simply this.
Hang on, let me get in.
Is, um, wait a minute.
Doggone it.
There we go.
My Patriot Supply.
This is preparewithlinel.com.
Go there and look.
See for yourself.
That's my favorite.
Kick the tires.
Go look and say, wow.
Look at what they've thought of and look at what they've done.
Whenever I go sometimes to any kind of like a hunting store or supply, I like to go in and see what they've got.
You think, this is brilliant.
Look, they've got waterproof matches.
Oh, look, they've got this.
I like to watch on YouTube.
They have these survival tips and people how to use hatchets and how to use a lighter and put a fishing line.
It's brilliant!
This is as brilliant as you can get.
My Patriot Supply, in the event of Disaster.
And right now, you can save $250 off a three-month supply in which each person should have.
So there you have it, right there, and make it all available to you.
I want to tell you that it's very difficult sometimes being a citizen and being an American and being somebody who is sentient, somebody who's trying to just find what's best for this world.
I hate politics.
I hate parties, and I hate this stupid rock star celebrity status of people who are on TV shows reading a prompter.
Sorry.
These people couldn't think their way out of a paper bag, but they're there sometimes to promote this lunacy.
And both sides do it.
The left and the right do it.
There is something so raw about civilian, citizen, and alternative media platforms, including podcasting, where it's very raw, very real, very basic.
Very basic.
But it's so honest.
It's so honest.
And that's what I want.
I want veracity, validity, verity, authenticity.
I want people to really speak the truth.
People who really...
You know what?
They might be sometimes a little zealous, but they mean it.
What the cable news folks don't understand is that what we see right now, what we see through various YouTube and other video channels and other features are so much more interesting and so much more valid.
It's just mind-boggling.
I mentioned before about something Fox News or Fox Nation doing, the life of Jesus.
Have you ever looked at the parts of the Bible that are confusing?
That are inconsistent?
Of course not.
That to me is the most interesting.
It doesn't make God or Jesus invalid, but it just makes it interesting.
They don't want to do that.
Here is the level.
This is like a tissue thin.
They want to take the first layer of cells, and that's as deep as they want to go, right off of the surface.
Just the first layer of cells.
That's as deep as it's going to go to make it sound very, very simple, very, very easy.
And there's nobody there to really say, almost like the traffic guard, okay, here's what we're going to need, here's what you need to know.
And I love the fact that somebody's at least mentioning JFK, but nobody wants to talk about that.
Nobody wants to talk about any of this stuff.
So in the meantime, my friends, in this terrible, dreary, rainy, dark New York day, I say to you, we're going to carry on.
Carry on.
I'm going to be doing a bunch of videos where I go into a little bit more detail that are not going to be subject to, dare I say, the prying eyes or the hypersensitive eyes of YouTube.
I mean, they have their own ways of thinking.
I don't really understand it, but, you know, that's fine.
Because I love to hear everything.
I love to hear everything there is.
There's nothing I don't want to hear.
Nothing.
Nothing that I don't want to hear.
Zero.
I've got a friend of mine who he's...
Have you ever talked to a doctor about COVID or vaccines?
Good luck.
Well, I talk about that at home.
It's almost like there's this...
There's this...
Everybody's afraid.
I was listening to Wion this morning.
W-I-O-N, World is One.
It's excellent.
The number of people, the mass exodus from China.
TikTok as a surveillance tool of China.
Remember, India said no at first, then they came back.
And now all of a sudden, did you hear who is behind?
Who is pushing?
Who do you think is pushing all of a sudden, Marco Rubio and others, to want to shut TikTok down in this country?
Who do you think is behind that?
Let me rephrase this.
Who's really pushing that?
Guess.
Guess.
Who would have an interest in TikTok not being allowed in this country?
Who?
Who?
Zuckerberg.
Off the hook.
Why did Zuckerberg drop that little morsel about the FBI coming to Facebook when he was on Rogan?
What's going on here?
More limited hangouts?
No, but you're too busy working on Elon.
And whether Elon is shutting down a journalist who wants to dox him and track his flight?
And all of a sudden the investigative journalist community is upset over this?
Nothing else?
Nothing about Trump being shut down and banned from Twitter for years?
No, that's okay.
But this...
Elon Jett Fellow?
Well, no, that's a big important story.
What needs to be done cannot exist on a cable news show.
What needs to be known, what needs to be explained, what needs to be provided to you cannot possibly be done ever on a cable news show.
It can't.
It won't exist.
Because the people who are involved in it are from television.
These are people who know classic, boring promotion and production and sweepers and you know...
They have no interest in this.
They're not news people.
They're TV people.
They're into the technology and how to make it look good and have a graphic.
Do you know that...
This is the thing that I always found so annoying.
Tucker, and again, God bless him, at least he's trying.
Whenever they would do something on UFOs, and by the way, UFOs are real, you know, everybody knows they're real.
It's, you know, but anyway.
But whenever they do this, somebody in graphics, probably some guy named Lou, probably every station has a Lou in graphics.
Lou, we're going to do a...
Tucker's got a piece on UFOs.
Can you do something?
Yeah, sure.
So he has a graphic of some flying saucer flying over and then taking off, making it look stupid.
Maybe a little green men, maybe you can do that.
To make it seem childish and amateurish and a joke, completely conflicting with the severity and the actual veracity of the story.
Nobody thinks like that.
Why?
Because they're TV production people.
They're not news people.
They don't know what they're talking about.
If they do something on COVID, do they have little animated COVID, you know, variants?
We're Mr. COVID!
No, they wouldn't do that.
Or cancer.
The latest in cancer.
And you have cancer wearing hard hats and spears.
No, they wouldn't do that.
But when it comes to UFOs, they do.
Why?
Because they're children.
And they've been working in news.
As graphics people, not as news people.
They don't know how to balance it.
They don't know how to...
And I'm telling you, remember something.
Never trust a studio audience.
That's all I'm going to say.
Never trust a studio audience.
How do you think Nixon got away with it?
Remember when Nixon brought in a studio audience?
Remember when they said, when Nixon went to, he said, why don't you invite people then?
Talk to me or ask questions or whatever.
And they always thought, Nixon bought off the news people.
He bought off the reporters.
No!
He bought off the audience.
The audience was in on it.
They didn't think about that.
They would say, Mr. Nixon, we thank you so much.
Well, thank you very much.
They were looking at the news people, not the audience.
And remember, Whenever you have anything about being a studio audience, that's the angle.
The studio audience who thinks something's funny, the studio audience who was there, remember years ago, remember that fellow?
John, oh no, no, no, no.
What was his name?
Remember that North Carolina senator who came one time?
John Edward.
His name was John Edward versus Edwards.
Remember that?
He was Edward.
He talked to people.
He talked to dead people.
Is it John?
Yeah, John Edward.
I think it's John.
I always get him.
The senator is Edwards and he's Edwards.
Yeah, John Edward.
Where is John Edwards?
Don't know.
Don't know.
John Edward.
That's it.
Well, what did he do?
Well, he had a studio audience.
It's very interesting.
And why is that important?
Well, he had him show up real early.
Why is that important?
Well, they'd be sitting around in the studio prior to the show, and they'd have microphones.
And these people would be talking to each other.
What are you here for?
Well, my grandfather died, and somebody's in the back writing this down.
You're listening to this.
My grandfather, what did he die?
Oh, sugar diabetes.
Oh, he's sugar diabetes.
And then when John Edwards goes on, he goes, They had a group of people that were there.
Never trust a studio audience.
Am I getting through to you?
Do you see what's happening?
Ratings for cable shows have nothing to do with veracity or truth.
That's how many people are watching.
Theoretically.
Now remember the one thing about cable news.
They make all their money with the subscriptions.
They don't care who's watching.
I mean, they do, but they don't.
Because they sell their deal.
Anyway, I'm getting too deep.
I'm getting too deep.
I do not want to bother you with this.
You have a great and a glorious day.
Don't forget to follow me at Lionel Media on Twitter.
Don't forget to follow Mrs. L at Lynn's Warriors on Twitter.
And go to her as well on YouTube at Lynn's Warriors.
See you tomorrow, my friends.
I threw a lot of stuff at you today.
And I don't expect for you to understand it or to get it, but we will.
We're going to work through this.
Because this is an ideological war that we are in.
Okay?
Good.
See you tomorrow.
Same bad time.
Same bad channel.
9 a.m.
Mr. Time.
Remember, until then, the monkey's dead.
The show's over.
Sue ya.
