I Good evening, dear friend.
Let me tell you to get ready.
I'm in a weird kind of mood today.
I'm in a weird mood for a lot of reasons.
Number one...
I decided today, I normally do it, I did my fast, which I recommend to everybody, fast one day a week.
Believe me.
Do it.
One day a week.
Nothing.
Nothing but fluids.
That's it.
Towards the end of the day, you get a little crazy, which is good too.
But the next time you eat, oh man, do things taste good.
Kind of resets your thermostat.
I want to talk to you about a couple of things tonight.
First of all, Fannie's latest, Trump's kangaroo court, the Mayorkas walking, and free speech collapsing.
Get ready.
Get ready.
Tonight's going to give you pure, vintage, 100% idol.
This is me, and this is why people of the Republican Party cannot stand me.
And the reason why is because I think for myself.
And immediately, I know that whenever these folks act in unison, whenever they act, I know what's wrong.
I absolutely know what's wrong.
Okay?
So that's the way that thing goes.
I want you to listen to me very, very carefully.
So first of all, get ready to buckle up.
Make sure you subscribe, subscribe, subscribe, subscribe.
I can't tell you enough how to subscribe.
The subscriptions are critical because for some reason, I don't know why, people say, hey, I'm unsubscribed.
I don't get that.
Just like sometimes with super chats, people will say, I can't do it.
You've also said, I've got to type it like this.
This is weird.
I don't want to get paranoid, but you know the old expression, just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean no one's after me.
Also, like the videos, like everything would mean so much for you to like, like this stuff, which is so critical.
Now, before we begin, let me start off by saying this to you.
And this is the most important.
This is so, so important.
I can't, I can't say it enough.
And I want you to listen to me carefully before we forget.
I love these people.
Very, very quickly, you know I love our friends at MyPillow.
MyPillow.com.
MyPillow.com.
Look at this stuff.
Look at this stuff.
These $25 extravaganzas.
MyPillow.com promo code lineup.
I'm not going to spend a lot of time.
You know what Kyle talks about.
Look at these deals.
Look at this one.
Look at this.
Best bed sheet sale ever.
Promo code Lionel.
Promo code Lionel.
There we go.
Name it.
Just go through it.
Everything you can think of.
Everything you can think of, they've got.
It's that simple.
MyPillow.com promo code Lionel.
MyPillow.com promo code Lionel.
You know I love them.
You'll love them.
Everybody loves them.
That's it.
That's it.
Nothing more, nothing less.
I'm not going to go into detail about this.
It makes sense.
MyPillow.com, promo code Lionel.
Do yourself a favor.
They've been friends to us, and we've been friends to them.
God bless Mike Lindell for the greatest product.
We are a MyPillow family, and you will too.
But use promo code Lionel, and that's where you get the deals.
Okay.
First, in case you've heard the news, maybe you didn't hear the news, maybe you did.
I don't know.
But if you didn't hear the news, let me tell you what the news is.
Ready for this?
They're not going to go through with the impeachment trial of Mayorkas.
Good!
That was the most stupid waste of time I've ever seen in my life.
Why people do this, I have no earthly idea.
I hate impeachment.
I hate it when they impeach Trump.
I hate it when they impeach Clinton.
We have got to get off this addiction to impeachment.
Period.
It doesn't do any good.
Mathematically, you're not going to be getting...
There's not going to be any kind of a...
of a conviction in the Senate.
You don't have the votes.
We should get down to business.
Pass laws.
Do what you must do.
Do what you were put in power to do by making this country better.
Stand up to Biden.
Stand up to the Department of Justice.
But stand up to the people who are telling Mayorkas what to do.
He's not coming up with this.
It's Biden.
It's the shadow government.
These people are.
Don't, don't, I'm telling you, they're also doing, believe it or not, some good stuff regarding CSAM, child sexual abuse material.
Nobody wants to hear that.
Let's forget this impeachment bullshit.
It's over with.
It's a waste of time.
People do it because it feels good.
They think that impeachment means they get rid of him.
He did not commit a high crime or misdemeanor by doing his job.
I promise you.
He's following orders.
I don't want to pull an Eichmann defense here, but let's stop this once and for all.
I know people don't like it.
I know it makes them feel good.
I know it makes them feel terrific, but it makes me sick.
Now, let me ask you this question, okay?
And by the way, you're more than welcome.
How about this morning?
We got into it about women.
Wasn't that something?
I have women friends.
They're nice.
Wow.
I've been thinking about that one.
Go back and listen to today's show.
It was really interesting.
That one came out of nowhere.
So Mayorkas, fire him, do whatever he wants.
He hasn't broken the law.
He hasn't broken the law.
He shouldn't be impeached.
It's not his thing.
It's Biden.
He's following the orders.
Again, it sounds like Eichmann.
I know that.
I'm only doing my job.
Okay, that.
Number two, this drives me crazy.
Yes or no?
Yes or no?
Should the phrase from the river to the sea be declaimed and proclaimed as hate speech and banned from college campuses?
Simple question.
Yes or no?
Elise Stefanik, she's going crazy.
Okay, fine.
From the river to the sea, will the Palestine shall be free or whatever?
Should it be declared, declaimed, proclaimed, and established as hate crimes?
Yes or no?
And prohibited.
Prohibited!
You can't say this.
You say from the frivolous, you're out of here.
You're gone.
You're through.
You're finished.
Yes or no?
No, no, no.
Look at this, no.
Look at this, no, no.
Everybody, no.
Exactly.
Well, my favorite banning speech, that's right, Cindy.
You know, I didn't ask you whether you agreed with it.
That's very good.
First of all, what does this mean?
What does this mean?
Well, you know what it means.
What does it mean?
Is it anti-Semitic?
Is it anti-Semitic?
According to you, other people are saying, no, this is my thoughts, my hope, my praise, my dream of Palestine.
I want Israel out.
Israel wants Palestine out.
To hell with this two-state solution.
This is your right to say it!
At a college campus?
The marketplace of free ideas?
What the hell is going on?
Is that anti-Semitic?
So what?
Is it racist?
So what?
Is it anti-Palestinian?
So what?
I can come up with something all the time.
Well, you know, pro-Trump.
Hey, MAGA, is that anti-Democrat?
Yes.
We're losing our minds here.
We're losing our minds.
Let me make this thing very, very clear.
This is the part that drives me crazy.
We're losing free speech.
They are saying, let's see what we can get away with this Palestine-Israel thing, and let's just keep those limitations from now on.
It's a very simple concept.
When you do something, when you do something, That makes students feel unsafe.
If you say DEI is reverse racism, that's okay.
Affirmative action is reverse racism, that's okay.
Trump is a white supremacist, that's okay.
String them up.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
Slavery.
Reinstate slavery.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
This is like Potter Stewart.
This is a Jacobellas case.
I know what I'm saying.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
No, no.
We don't say that.
You don't say that.
We're not going to make people feel sorry.
No.
Sorry.
Do you see the difference between saying Palestinian position is wrong and get rid of them towel heads or whatever the pejorative you want?
Do you see a difference in that?
I do.
I see.
Absolutely.
Students have to be in a position where they feel safe.
You can't use the N-word apathous like that.
I'm sorry.
And if I have to explain it to you, if you're going to say, well, what's the difference?
What's the difference?
What's the difference?
No.
But if you're making a position regarding a political point, if you're saying the DEI is wrong, affirmative action is wrong, our position in Israel is wrong, our position in Palestine is wrong, whatever it is, that's fine.
Now what if somebody says, what we need is a final solution.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
Hold it.
This is a Nazi reference.
You can't say that.
Well, that's not what I meant.
That's what you meant.
It gets tough sometimes.
People will deliberately say things claiming that's not what I meant.
Okay, then change it.
Change the words then.
Convey the same idea.
Change the words.
I'm not telling you not to speak.
I'm telling you to change the words.
Okay?
If you have a sign that says F Trump, get rid of the F. Say everything else.
That's not limiting your speech.
It might be limiting your expression, but sometimes telling somebody they've got to wear shoes in a restaurant limits your free speech as well.
So if you don't understand the balance between this, I don't know what it is, but you've got people who can't, from the river to the sea, excuse me, you may not like that, I don't like, whatever it is, why can't you say that?
Why?
Well, because I know, because that means it should be, okay, fine.
Fine.
But I, I...
I'm going to tell you something, and I'm going to remind everybody of a concept which we are losing little by little.
The First Amendment is not to protect you from being offended, and you being offended is no concern of mine.
You being threatened is another.
When you are threatened, when somebody threatens you, when somebody...
Incites violence against you.
Now we're talking.
But if somebody insults you, somebody hurts your feelings, somebody makes you angry, I couldn't care less.
Get over it.
Life's a bitch, then you die.
Period.
The First Amendment is horrible.
It provides...
I'm not going to tell you what to do.
You've got two very, very serious...
You've got a powder keg going over there.
You've got Israel.
You've got Palestine.
You've got Gaza.
You've got the West Bank.
You've got Iran.
You've got Hezbollah.
You've got all this stuff going on.
You've got it going on.
And the last thing in the world we tell somebody is don't say that.
My skin crawls.
You know when people want to say it?
When you tell them not to say it.
Don't say.
Don't say from the river to the sea.
I told you don't do that.
Don't say that.
I don't care.
Say it.
Say it.
But, but, remember, they're going to say something back you're not going to like.
So, that's the way it goes.
This is America.
That's the free world.
That's it.
This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life.
This word, anti-Semitic, they said, we have to stop anti-Semitism on campus.
What do you mean by that?
You mean the thought?
You can think it all you want.
Anti-Semitism is protected speech.
So is racism.
So is hate.
You can hate all you want.
You can be anti-Semitic.
You can despise Jews, Arabs, Palestinians, whatever you want.
You can think.
Do you mean the thought?
When you see anti-Semitism, it means anti-Semitic speech, anti-Semitic thought, anti-Semitic expression, and who determines?
What is anti-Semitic?
Who?
Is there a committee?
Do you want to hear what they have to say?
When somebody says, from the river to the sea, what does that mean?
What does that mean?
Who determines?
What was your intent?
What does that mean to you?
What it means to you is, I think we should have more rights.
Okay, what's wrong with that?
That's not what you meant.
How do you know that's not what I meant?
That's not what you meant.
Are you a mind reader now?
Yeah, I'm a mind reader.
This is ridiculous.
We're losing it, my friends.
We are losing it.
And we got these Republican grandstanders.
Elise Stefanik, I'm back again, back in the saddle.
She got more.
Oh, she's probably got more.
Are you kidding me?
Her campaign is taking it.
She got more.
It's very profitable.
From Republican strongholds and Jewish groups and anti-Palestinian groups and Republicans and this and that.
When you hit something like that, oh my God.
Was Elise Stefanik that interested in free speech during people who didn't want to take the vaccine or people who didn't want to wear masks?
Probably not.
It's a selective kind of free speech.
It's a selective.
And the last thing in the world is you're talking about this.
You want to limit speech?
You want to limit speech?
I'm sorry.
And I do not like Rashida Tlaib or the squad as far as I can throw them.
But you're censoring them?
And if somebody were to say something stupid, let me try this again.
So what?
We are becoming the...
Absolute thinnest skinned people bar none.
We're absolutely, it disgusts me.
And I don't know who's worse.
The Democrats are the Republicans.
The Democrats are the Republicans.
Oh, and all these people, and I love this, these people say, I can't believe these little woke with their microaggressions and their trigger warnings and, oh my God, bunch of wimpy little simpy ball-less orchiectomy gelding little twits.
And then they turn around and say, well, I can't go to school because I'm afraid.
They're saying from the river to the sea, I can't go to school.
I don't feel safe.
Wait a minute.
Is this a trigger warning?
Yeah.
Wait a minute.
You just told me you don't like trigger warnings.
Well, I don't like some trigger warnings.
My trigger warning makes sense.
Theirs doesn't.
You see what we're doing right now?
What is this now?
That's right.
They're just getting upset because they don't like climate stuff or they don't like history.
They're a bunch of wimps.
It's so interesting.
We are losing Our minds, ladies and gentlemen.
John McGuire, couldn't get higher, said, I agree we are more thin-skinned than before.
However, on the same hand, we have to seem to share far more than we used to as well.
However, on the same hand, we seem to share...
you I don't know what that means, but thank you for that.
I want to live in a country where we say, okay, That's the way it is.
Are they threatening you?
No, no, no.
Not by their presence.
Anybody threaten you?
Anybody say, yeah, they did.
Those people are saying, you mean like Antifa?
You know what?
Anybody did?
By the way, did Elise Stefanik or anybody ever talk about Antifa who basically targeted cities as domestic terrorists during the BLM, during the Scourge?
No.
Why?
There's no money in that.
Nobody, you know, nobody cares about that.
What are you doing to protect the borders?
I don't know.
But you're worried about the Columbia University?
Their teeth bared because now they just love going after these academic twits, these eggheads and these academics.
It does depend on the context.
Everything depends on the context.
Everything.
I remember one time somebody was saying Sieg Heil as an expression of how something that the police were doing was totalitarian.
They were using it as a parody.
And these idiots didn't even understand this.
That's why do not nuance these people.
Do not think they're going to figure out what it is you're saying.
We are the United States of America.
We are supposed to be the toughest, the most durable, the most...
You know, I was watching something today and I love...
I get into these YouTube things.
I don't even know where in the hell I get into them or why I get into them or where it comes from.
I have no idea.
So I was watching something which was very interesting.
And Joe Rogan, Joe Rogan and Lex Friedman.
I'm doing a, I'm going to be talking more about that.
I learn a lot from these folks.
I just dropped four subscribers.
Why?
What am I doing?
What happened?
I don't understand it.
I don't understand it.
I don't, I mean, I don't.
This is, that's why I need your help.
It's the weirdest.
I'm not going to be metric crazy, but sometimes I just don't.
I don't get it.
I'm thinking, I'm not doing...
What have I done?
What have I said?
How does this thing work?
I don't understand any of this.
I don't understand.
But it's neither here nor there.
And if it is neither here nor there, where the hell is it?
I love that expression.
It's neither here nor there.
There was a...
I want to read you this one guy I really liked.
He's really good.
Very, very...
Oh, here we go.
Here we go.
Oh, here we go.
I was watching something.
And it was a video I was watching.
It was this guy...
Oh, his name is John Danaher.
He uses jujitsu...
Everybody was asking, what's the best...
Martial art for self-defense.
And then you got Lex Friedman, you got Joe Rogan, you got the guy Jocko, you got all these people, and Georges Saint-Pierre, and all this stuff.
So this guy, John Danaher, was talking about this.
And he was very interesting.
And I, for some reason, got really interested in this very interesting topic.
I always think a gun is the most effective, but that's me.
Anyway.
So as they're discussing this, he said, jujitsu is important because you want to get people on the ground.
Why do you want to get people on the ground?
He was asking Joe Rogan, why do you think people want to get...
And he said, one of the best lines ever was, he goes, well...
You know when they try to brand a horse or a cow, whatever it is?
Yeah, what do they do?
They get them on the ground.
And he said one of the most interesting things, one of the most explosive, one of the most incredible events in the Olympics that we do, which nobody thinks about, is the javelin.
Because you go from 0 to 100, you go in this split-second explosion of energy, including this torque, this throw, this sprint, this everything you can imagine.
How far do you think somebody can throw a javelin on their knees?
Not very far.
And it was interesting.
And I was thinking, and I was thinking about the whole notion of self-defense and combat and how you, basically, combat is making your point.
I like when they say self-defense.
Nobody really means self-defense.
They want to fight.
They want to go after and get somebody.
They don't want to just block somebody.
They want to go after the guy trying to hit them.
I love the phraseology.
It's not self-defense.
They say, women should learn soft events.
No!
Women should know how to go after somebody.
You don't want to just block stuff.
You want to be able to be aggressive.
In any event.
In any event.
So I was thinking about this the way we're doing.
We are involved in this kind of like a verbal ideological martial arts.
Constantly.
Constantly.
And there are these new forms.
These new things.
Like, remember, it was boxing.
Everybody just wanted to box.
Nobody heard of any of this stuff.
Bruce Lee, Enter the Dragon.
Then all of a sudden they're talking about karate.
Karate.
You've got to be cool like that.
Then Mr. Miyagi and then the Karate Kid.
And then there was Muay Thai and then Brazilian and the Gracies and then UFC and MMA.
Everybody's choking everybody out now.
Nobody stands there and just boxes.
Nobody.
They call it striking, by the way.
Okay.
So what do we do?
Who are our intellectual boxers?
Who is our MMA?
What's the best form of either intellectual self-defense or striking?
And we never teach that.
We never teach that.
We never teach.
We never get involved in any kind of...
Because all of our discussions are kind of like sort of online.
Like, Laura Ingram slammed somebody.
There's no slammage.
No, no, no.
Bring it out for...
No, no, no, no, no.
There's no slammage.
Someone so slammed.
Someone so owned.
Torched.
Tucker Carlson torched.
Slammed.
There's no slamming.
No slamming!
How do you argue a point?
How do you argue the point?
One of the things is you have to be facile.
You have to be understanding this thing a little bit called logic.
What is it that you're trying to convey?
What are the rules of this?
What are the rules of logic?
This is the thing which is important.
What are we trying to do?
What are we trying to convey?
And the first rule is, what is or is not acceptable speech?
Stop right there.
You're an American.
Your skin should crawl when you hear somebody.
What?
Can't say something?
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
The left did it.
Now the right's doing it.
Yeah, but this is different.
This is anti-Semitism.
You gave it a name.
So what?
They used to use the word racism.
I love these friends of mine who go, well, there's a racism.
Oh, no, it's anti-Semitism.
Oh, it's different than anti-Semitism.
That's a different story.
Racism, who gives a shit?
But anti-Semitism, oh, it's different.
Wait a minute.
Can you give it a different name?
How about misogyny?
Transphobia?
Nah, that's bullshit.
But, but.
Anti-Semitism?
Oh, no, no, no, no.
That's nuclear.
That is redline.
That's third rail.
That's kryptonite.
Why?
So I ask people, can I think that?
Do I ask, is it about Israel or Jews?
I'm sorry.
We got to talk about this.
I don't want to talk.
You said it.
This one can't say, because that's anti-Semitic.
What?
Because you can't...
There are people in Israel who agree, who are not Zionist.
Are they anti-Semitic?
Do you want to talk about this?
No.
Because I'm Elise Stefanik, and I want to get as much time as possible, and I want to have all...
I'm going to be the hero of this.
I'm going to own this.
I'm going to bring every college president and every...
Who gives a shit?
About Columbia University.
What they say, I don't care about that.
My country's falling apart.
We are being invaded by illegal...
I don't know who these people are.
We are losing our minds.
And you're worried about whether the Columbia University president did what?
Oh, my God.
And then you want to also waste your time impeaching Mayorkas?
That's the issue.
That's the issue.
Who's with me?
What does that make me?
What?
What does that make me?
Makes me an American.
Makes me a constitutional purist.
It makes me somebody who believes in the precepts and the tenets of our country.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Let me stop for a second.
I'm going to just kind of calm down here.
I get so, I get so, you have no idea.
I get so nuts when I hear people just spew this garbage about speech.
I don't know what to tell you.
I don't know what to tell you.
Now, in the meantime, stop for a second.
There is a deal that is available for you from PrepareWithLionel.com.
I'm not talking about some tchotchke, some little trinket, some goo-go, something you can buy that you don't need.
I'm talking about emergency food.
Take a look at this!
Look at all that!
Can you do that?
Can you do that?
Could you possibly put together all that?
For, I don't know, a week?
A month?
90 days?
Three months?
I don't think so.
Look at this special right now.
Four-week emergency food supply.
This is the butte right now.
Go to preparewithlion.com.
Look at that.
Look at this.
This is just a month.
It's just a month.
Per person.
Per person.
Look at that.
Look at this.
Puddings and macaronis and pancakes and mashed potatoes and bread and drinks.
You don't have this in your larder.
You don't have this in your cupboard.
So go to preparewithlinel.com right now, preparewithlinel.com.
Just go look at this, preparewithlinel.com.
You will see what I'm talking about.
You will be absolutely, you will be gobsmacked by how much and how great this is.
Okay?
You got that?
Okay, good.
Now, the president is also...
As we speak, unable to speak, they're trying to hit him with gag orders.
Now, the same people who say he shouldn't have a gag order, which he shouldn't, want to tell college people what songs and chants they can make.
And they sit there and say, I don't see anything different with that.
What?
Well, it's anti-Semitic.
Well, I think he's anti-juridical.
What?
His speech declaims the process of jurisprudence.
I just made that up.
Well, that's my version of it.
That's what I call it.
He's threatening people.
He's not threatening people.
Well, they're thinking they're threatened.
One of the jurors thought she was threatened.
Oh, that's ridiculous.
But yet, you think that a student on a campus of Columbia or someplace else is going to be threatened about this, and then the next week, I want you to tell somebody, some trans kid, why they're not threatened.
I should shut your speech up, too.
Don't give me this business about this.
They don't like what you're saying.
And then this one doesn't like this.
And then this one doesn't.
I mean, it just goes on and on and on, and there's no end in sight.
And these same idiots want to, they want to impeach Mayorkas when they know they don't have the vote?
I don't understand it.
I'm a very simple person when it comes to just addressing things that matter.
We have...
Did you see when Trump...
This is how brilliant this guy is.
Trump yesterday decides to go uptown to Harlem.
Not just any place in Harlem.
He went to the convenience store where that sicko with a knife, remember that?
He came in and threatened this...
This shop owner or shop worker.
Yeah, the shop owner got stabbed, but he fought back and stabbed and got this guy and killed him, right?
The assailant.
So the shop owner protected himself, defended himself.
Thank God he's not dead.
He ended up leaving.
He said to hell with this.
He went back to the D.R. He said, I'm not going to put up with this crap.
And Alvin Bragg prosecuted.
The person who defended himself.
They couldn't believe it!
It was like, you've got to be kidding me!
At least Stefanik, whatever the hell pronunciation is, and others should have been there giving this guy a goddamn award for urban renewal, for waxing this vermin, this pond scum.
But no!
Alvin Bragg, the one prosecuting Trump, prosecuted the guy who defended himself!
And used his knife!
The guy, the assailant!
Anyway.
But you want to prosecute?
You want to impeach my own?
This is where I'm saying, I don't understand this.
I don't understand this.
I don't get this.
This is why I don't fit in.
So who's bad?
Don't give me this crap about the Democrats.
Don't give me this.
Don't give me this.
Don't tell me that the Democrats want to shut everybody.
Well, you know, cancel culture.
Cancel culture.
What about somebody who wants to...
Tomorrow, what will you not be able to say on a college campus?
How about this?
MAGA.
Excuse me.
Can't say that.
Why?
That's hate speech.
What?
Well...
From the river to the sea, you didn't want that.
Well, we're going to take that rule and we're going to extend it.
We're going to say, okay, I'll give you that.
We're also going to say, no MAGA.
We also want to take down the American flag because that makes us scared.
What?
Well, you didn't care when...
You see what I'm saying?
We've got to be purists and you've got to let things go.
And the way you fight speech is with more speech.
It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life.
There is just no...
I'll put it this way.
There's no discussion at all about what's happening in Israel.
You know what?
And as far as most people are concerned, they're like, oh, whatever.
You want to keep funding this?
Okay, fine.
Let me tell you what's going to happen.
Let me tell you what's going to happen.
Somebody is going to be coming for you next.
Okay?
So just get ready.
You want to get into this?
You want to start playing with these folks?
Go ahead.
See, because in our country, we have this idea that Iranians from Hezbollah, Houthis, that these are like...
Spear-throwing, I don't know what, that they're not very sophisticated.
They don't have any guns.
Oh, yeah?
Okay.
Think about this.
Albania Hernandez says, Hi, I'm Dominican too.
God bless the DRs.
God bless them.
You should see, by the way, I say that with love.
You want to see a real love affair here in New York?
How about the Dominicans and the Puerto Ricans?
I'm not saying this, but it's a rule.
It's interesting.
There's so many flavors.
When you say Latino, you've got to say the Latino.
You know how many kinds?
The Hondurans, the Dominicans, the Boricuas, the Puerto Ricanos.
The Salvadorans, the Venezuelans, the Panamans.
I mean, here you go.
And the Spanish say, wait a minute, don't even include.
From España, don't even include us in that one.
That's what they say in Portugal and Brazil.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
I don't recognize my country.
We are so...
We don't even understand what this is about.
And when it comes to something, my friends, when it comes to Israel, you are talking about something where you cannot do it in a two-minute conversation.
You've got to know history.
You've got to know perspective.
You've got to understand Do you understand that when you talk about Israel, there is Israel, there's Judaism, there are Arabs who are Israelis, there are people who live in, and there are atheists who are Israel.
There are Jewish atheists, which to both people, you might think that's oxymoronic, but it's not.
There are Catholics and Baha 'i who live in Haifa.
It's a huge place, and there are people with different perspectives.
But there is no...
There's something interesting here.
There's that notion of anti-Semitism.
There's no other...
I'm trying to think.
There's no other...
There's no other place I can think of where if you...
Like, for example...
We don't have this.
But imagine if I said, wait a minute!
What did you say about Macron?
Are you a francophobe?
What?
Are you a francophobe?
No.
Better not be.
I will not tolerate francophobia.
There's no other thing where you argue, but then there's an overarching...
Your dislike is far more insidious.
And vitriolic and infectious and pathological and demented.
You're a francophobe.
Don't you understand this?
Now we're understanding.
It's like racism, sort of, you know.
Nobody said this.
You know, I think this Idi Amin's a bad guy.
You're a racist!
Wait, no, that doesn't work.
This one, though.
There are people who are so petrified to say, excuse me, I'm not saying anything about Judaism.
I'm talking about Israel.
I'm not talking about that.
And the more you can conflate or expand or include something so that you are just paralyzed.
And we've all been through this.
You feel this right now.
How many times do people say, you know, as far as the COVID?
No.
Nothing.
That's the scariest.
What about COVID?
Oh, that's okay.
Whatever.
That's the most frightening.
We can't live in a world where we do self-censorship, where we don't talk, where we're afraid and petrified that somebody's going to say, oh, don't say that.
We're losing it right now.
And the only way we're ever going to figure anything out is to talk about it.
And you can think anything you want.
Just say it.
Do not threaten.
Brandenburg.
I think it was 2000 or 99. Brandenburg against Ohio.
This is a case you've got to know.
This is the Supreme Court.
This is the biggie.
It established a two-part test.
For when the government can restrict speech that advocates illegal action, there was a Klan leader who was convicted under this syndicalism statute, and the state criminalized the advocacy of crime, sabotage, violence, or unlawful methods of terrorism as a means of accomplishing industrial or political reform.
Sound familiar?
And they said, well, you can't have a Klansman up there.
And the Supreme Board said, nope.
In 1969.
1969.
I think Harlan was the only dissent.
Can that be it?
And it works like this.
The court issued a two-pronged test.
They love prongs and balancing tests.
A two-pronged test to evaluate Speech can be prohibited if it is directed at inciting or producing imminent, as in now, soon, imminent, not eminent, imminent lawless action.
If it is directed at producing imminent lawless action, and it is likely, To produce imminent.
And that means in my book you can say per near anything.
Excuse me.
How long have they been saying this?
An hour?
Okay.
Now let me tell you something.
And I want you to listen to me.
And I know what I'm talking about.
If you really want to get rid of from the river to the sea, And you want to absolutely just dilute it.
Say it.
Say it again.
And go like this.
It'll be over before you know it.
If that's what you want to do.
Whatever it is.
Whatever.
Whatever.
No justice, no peace.
Oh, please.
That thing used to be, oh, when you first heard, I don't know if you were around New York then, I was at Alistair, but they said no justice, no peace.
Oh, sure.
Be careful.
This normally, there's going to be rocks flying pretty soon.
No justice, no peace.
We're saying there's no justice.
Well, here comes no peace.
Pretty soon it became a cliche.
It was over.
Say it again.
Project of peace.
Okay.
Remember this one?
We're here.
We're queer.
We're back every year.
This is the Hibernias.
This is the ILGO.
The Irish and lesbian, gay, whatever, at St. Patrick's.
We're queer.
And pretty soon people laughed at it.
Now, I'm not...
I'm telling you, if you really want to just dilute it, Don't make it the N-word that nobody can figure out.
That thing is just, that's just, it's lost all interest because of complete confusion.
Okay, I can't say it.
Can I sing a song in it?
Yeah.
If I like N.W.A., can I sing?
No, I can't say it, but I like it.
No, I'm paying for the album, for the CD.
No, I can't say it.
No.
Can I pose somebody saying it?
No.
Wait a minute.
But he said it.
Doesn't matter.
But I didn't say it.
He said it.
So I can't.
Can I sing it?
No.
Can I spell it?
No.
Can I give it a name that sounds like it?
For example, let's say when somebody is larger, they are also called bigger.
When you are bigger, that means you are more large or more big.
I could call it bigger.
He is much larger and bigger than...
Is that okay?
No.
Why?
Because I know what you're trying to say.
Is this okay?
Look at this.
It's 747 Eastern Standard.
I can't say anything.
No emoji.
I have no idea what that means.
You mean on your super chat?
I don't get it.
I don't understand what's going on here.
I don't understand.
Maybe it's you, honey man.
Maybe it's you.
Isn't this ridiculous?
There is a group...
Hang on.
There is a group called the...
Hang on.
There was a group called the...
Okay, there was a...
There was a restaurant...
You know the word pho?
P-H-O, pho?
It's pronounced pho.
But you know like Vietnamese, great soup, you know the pho?
P-H-O, not pho, called pho.
Okay?
There was...
Pho.
That's the name of the...
Okay.
The story was, and you can read it, there was a restaurant and the fellow who actually did this.
You know how you say the papaya king?
The taco king?
You know, the empanada king?
Okay.
He had the pho king.
That's the name of the thing.
And people, you can't say anything.
Excuse me!
That's what it's called.
I don't care.
This is the most...
This is...
But my favorite...
Oh my god.
This is the...
My favorite ever.
Ever.
There was a word in 1999.
David Howard, who was an aide to the mayor of Washington, D.C., Anthony Williams, used a word in reference to the budget.
Mr. Howard, I think, was a very erudite man.
I believe he might have been.
I don't know if he was not that it mattered.
There was a time when if you were Harvard educated, he was...
But anyway, he used this word, and it means stingy or miserly.
And it is their word.
It has Scandinavian origins.
And it means stingy, serving, I think it's from, anyway, miserly, parsimonious, closed-fisted, penny-pinching, cheese-pairing, penurious, grasping, greedy.
And it is spelled, it is an adjective, and he used it in reference to the budget.
It is spelled N-I-G-G-A-R-D-L-Y.
I'm going to spell it.
Because we live in this demented world.
This was in 1999.
He was fired.
No, he resigned after the incident.
And the mayor accepted his resignation, even though...
It was nothing wrong with what he said.
This is how demented this is!
This is demented!
It's a word!
It's a word!
And by the way, for those of you who know this, in the Cuban slang, papaya...
Is, in some cases, a reference to the pudenda, or the female pudenda, which is redundant.
That's why you can always tell the Cuban version, because it's called fruta bomba, or bomb fruit.
Then there's also, like, a bicho, for sometimes, in some, it means, in one Latin, it means bug, in the other ones, it means a male references.
I mean, you get in...
So...
Instead of saying, well, what is the intent?
What did you intend to be said?
Nobody cares about that.
They love, we love to shut things down.
Just shut things down.
Shut up.
Just be quiet.
Don't talk.
Somebody said one time, there was an expression.
It was a Southern thing.
It's as useless as a tits on a boar hog.
And they say, you can't say that, but that's...
Do you know that, who was it, William S. Garner said that the vice president is not worth a warm bucket of piss.
This was his quote!
And they changed it to spit.
Bucket of spit?
Where would you get a bucket?
Anyway, that made it okay.
How about when you watch The Sopranos?
One of the funniest ones on Number one was SCTV.
Number two was Mad TV, which was really good.
And then the most overrated was SNL.
Absolutely most overrated, even at its best, except when Billy Crystal and Christopher Guest were on and Harry Shearer.
That was the year.
But other than that, forget it.
They did this thing, they said, and now The Sopranos on A&E.
And they took all the words out.
And they'll take like Uncle Junior's say, no freaking way!
Now nobody said that.
Uncle Junior or Pauly Walnuts did not say no freaking way.
Don't bleep it out.
I don't care.
But I used to say, but I know what the word is.
How about F dash dash K?
Why can I write S-H asterisk T?
That's okay.
This is the world I've lived in.
I grew up in the era our heroes were people like Lenny Bruce and Bill Hicks later on.
But George Carlin, the seven dirty words.
We remember this.
We remember he couldn't say this.
We remember this.
And we all knew what it was.
And they glorified them.
And I lived in a world where I said, I'm going to appreciate speech.
Say it.
It's okay.
We're losing our minds.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm telling you, listen to me.
The stuff that we're talking about right here, there's no law.
There's no, it's not, can't blame Biden for this.
We're doing this because we tolerate this.
We tolerate this.
And because we don't like the squad or we don't like this one, somebody said, okay, remember, Fine.
Somebody can say from the river to the sea.
Okay.
Okay, fine.
But the next time somebody comes up and says, I don't like MAGA.
I think that's racist.
Okay.
So take down all your MAGA clubs and your MAGA.
There's enough problem at student campuses anyway.
What are we doing?
I can't believe it.
Ann Coulter can't even speak.
Who the hell wants to see Ann Coulter or...
Any of these people.
If you do, good for you.
It's a free country.
But you're yelling about Ann Coulter.
You then turn around and say, but you can't say from the river to the sea.
Whatever the hell it is.
Say it!
Good.
Say it again.
You're done?
One more time.
Come on.
Say it with feeling, gusto.
Anything else?
Yeah.
Okay.
I just took away The sting.
I just took away the impact, the import.
That's all.
Now, would you like to call, would you like to discuss what that phrase means?
No.
Would you like to discuss what's going on in the list?
No.
You just want to, you just want to, you just want to, yes.
Oh, I see.
So you just want to talk about that.
This is where I'm saying, my friends, I don't know what's going on here.
I don't understand.
I don't understand.
But going back to President Trump, he's a genius.
He went there to Harlem and they loved him.
They loved this guy.
Loved him.
He walks into the room.
Supposedly, some of the jurors don't be surprised.
I'm smelling a hung jury.
Oh, do I smell a hung jury in this Case.
I know it sounds crazy.
I know it sounds crazy, because I'm not, this is the New York trial, because I'm still trying to figure out what the hell they're charged with.
But there were some jurors who said things like, you know, he's very, I find him fascinating.
When Trump walks into a room, let me tell you something.
Have you ever been in a room when a former president, or anybody for that matter, is there?
I don't care what you say.
If Joe Biden comes shuffling into a room, that's the President of the United States.
You might not like him.
You may not vote for him.
You may think he's an idiot.
But he's the President of the United States.
He's your President.
He works for you.
And believe it or not, when Trump goes into rooms, he just commands.
Awe from people.
Don't ever forget that.
They may scream and yell outside, but if somebody had to deal with them in person, and they were not armed, they would cower.
Because it's very impressive.
And it's very, very, it's awe-inspiring.
Truly.
To meet, this is the president, not only any president, that guy.
There he is.
Right in front of me.
The guy who's been on TV and pictures and whatever.
There he is.
Wow.
Believe me when I'm telling you.
Believe me.
They talk a good game.
Okay, we'll see about that.
Alright, dear friends?
Alright, good, good, good.
Now, do me a favor.
One more thing.
Dear, dear, great and loyal friends, I want you to follow Mrs. L at Lynn's Warriors.
Do this for me and for her and for truth.
Lynn's Warriors.
L-Y-N-N apostrophe.
Yes, Warriors.
Actually, there's no apostrophe.
It's just Lynn's Warriors on YouTube.
Follow her right this minute.
And Lynn's Warriors on X, as we used to call that Twitter thing.
Okay, you got it?
And also, I'm also, for whatever it's worth, at Lionel Legal.
All right, dear friends?
All right.
Listen, thank you for honoring me with you being here.
Thank you for honoring me with your love.
Thank you for this.
Christos Savrou, the honey man.
Love this man.
I love when you send me this incredible, this Greek music that is just like, wow.
I would have never been exposed to it.
Thanks to you, sir.
Albania Hernandez, thank you so much.
And John McGuire, couldn't get higher?
Thank you, my friend.
Thank you for your kindness and your support and your love and your togetherness.
All right, dear friends.
Have a great and glorious day.
See you tomorrow at 8. A.M. per usual.
And until then, as I always end with this valedictory, this sayonara, this adios, the monkey's dead.
The show's over.
Suya.
