When I was in high school, I was on, well, tried out or participated with the wrestling team for like an hour.
And I...
Shattered meniscus cartilage.
I have no idea.
I have no idea what I did.
But when I was doing this, when I was on the mat, you know, every now jujitsu, I did something.
And I don't know what I did.
My knee, my arm, I have no idea what I did.
And the guy that I was cussling with or trying to, I knew nothing about holds or taking, nothing.
But I did something.
And he was screaming in pain.
And the coach grabbed me, pulled me off and said, no submission holds.
I said, I don't know what the hell you're talking about.
What am I doing?
I don't know what I did.
I don't know how I did it.
I don't know how to replicate it.
But what I did made this person scream.
And I knew that it had to spin a match.
That would have allowed this move that I was miraculously affixing.
I would have won.
My friends, when you are going for the throat in politics, to be sure, and somebody starts screaming over something that you're saying, Somebody's going nuts.
They're going berserk.
They're yelling.
They're saying you can't do this.
This is unfair.
Keep doing it.
Keep doing it.
Now for some particular reason, I don't know why.
I don't know why.
But these crazy Democrats are going nuts.
Over the cats and pets being eaten by Haitian illegals or Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio.
They're going crazy.
I have a friend of mine.
I love the guy.
He is so smart, great businessman, believes everything.
And I have been sending pictures of actual animals grilled, cats, dogs, from various countries, without any signs.
And I wrote Cleveland, Springfield, Dayton.
I'm trying to think of Ohio City.
And I'm sending him these.
And he's going crazy.
I'm thinking, this is a joke.
I sent him a poem.
May I read this to you?
Actually, it's a Chad GPT poem.
But he doesn't know.
I'm going to call him Larry.
Okay?
And this is the poem.
Larry, so firm and true, won't believe what others do.
He scoffs at tales, dismisses the cries of cats devoured under Springfield skies.
Stubbornly clings to his democratic team.
Kamala's tribe, a loyal dream.
He waves off facts, shuns the debate, for propaganda sweeter than a cat-filled plate.
Yet rumors swirl, the stories spread, but Larry won't be swayed or led.
His stance is firm, his mind set tight.
Oh, Larry, stand in your fight.
I'm having so much fun driving this man crazy.
And he sent me something of something Bill O 'Reilly disputed this.
I said, Bill O 'Reilly, you hate Bill O 'Reilly.
What are you talking about?
Because Bill O 'Reilly is disputing the cat claim.
He's going crazy over the cat claim.
So I write him.
I'm saying, they eat cats.
They don't eat cats.
Oh, it's true.
Yeah, they did this.
They proved it.
They didn't prove it.
Oh, and she had an earpiece in.
She did not have an earpiece.
The man who...
And I'm just making this up.
Yeah, the man who made that piece admitted it.
That's her.
That's his.
She was using it.
By the way, the fellow who actually makes the earpiece that you're talking about never disputed.
He said, well, I can't rule it out.
I'm having the time of my life.
It's all these people are talking about with all that's going on.
So you know what, my friends?
Keep it up.
Keep it up.
I can't say it enough.
Keep it up.
And by the way, don't say you hate Bill O 'Reilly.
Bill O 'Reilly is just doing his thing.
Bill O 'Reilly and Geraldo.
On that news station or whatever this thing is.
Poor thing.
It has the power of like a...
I think it has the coverage of one of these child monitors or baby monitors.
You know, it's just, you know, these are just hacks.
Bill O 'Reilly, you know, the author.
Look, God bless him.
He's doing whatever it is.
Who cares?
Bill O 'Reilly.
But the best part is, is my friend who was one of these, he's not a liberal.
He hates Trump.
And I'm just driving him crazy.
And I'm sending him, and I'm having so much fun.
And you should see these pictures I'm sending him.
I don't even think he doesn't realize.
I'm just going on Google and going to countries that are...
So as I did during my brief wrestling career, if they're screaming, keep it up!
Keep it up if this works.
Now, there's a woman.
I never want to talk about somebody's looks or whatever it is.
I really know her name is Caitlin Collins or whatever.
She's on CNN.
She's fine, but she just looks always so angry.
Angry.
I'm not saying anything about her look or her shoes.
I'm not saying anything attractive.
I'm not saying anything.
But anybody can look.
Pick the most beautiful woman or man or person you think and show them angry all the time and you'll say, why are you doing this?
She's angry because she realizes I'm on CNN and this is going nowhere.
But this is Caitlin and J.D. Vance talking about, you guessed it.
He brought up this misleading false claim that you yourself have talked about in recent days about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, abducting people's pets and eating them, which officials there have said is not true.
You yourself acknowledged it may be false on Twitter.
You still told people to keep spreading it.
But Trump just amplified it to tens of millions of people who were watching.
Why?
Push something that's not true.
Well, first of all, city officials have not said it's not true.
They said they don't have all the evidence.
They said they have no evidence.
We've heard from a number of constituents on the ground, Caitlin, who both firsthand and secondhand reports.
Let me just say something for a moment.
Listen to Uncle Lenny.
People in cities don't normally say, yeah, yeah, in Springfield, oh, yeah, we got cats all the time.
Oh, yeah, what do I do?
Yes, my name is, yeah.
Yablani Lipschitz, I'm the city manager.
Yeah, it's my job to prevent this.
Oh yeah, and I'm telling you, it happens all the time.
They're doing it all the time.
They all say, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, get them!
Machete wielding, oh, it's, oh, oh, oh, oh.
So people whose job it is to not allow this to happen are not the best sources of information to allege or to confirm whether it's happening or not.
And I think that it's important for journalists to actually get on the ground and uncover this stuff for themselves.
But she's not a journalist.
She's with CNN.
When you have a lot of people saying, my pets are being abducted, or geese at the city pond are being abducted and slaughtered right in front of us, this is crazy stuff.
Again, whether those exact rumors turn out to be mostly true, somewhat true, whatever the case may be.
Caitlin, this town has been ravaged by 20,000 migrants coming in.
Healthcare costs are up.
Housing costs are up.
Communicable diseases like HIV and TB have skyrocketed in this small Ohio town.
This is what Kamala Harris' border policies have done.
And I think it's interesting, Caitlin, that the media didn't care about the carnage wrought by these policies until we turned it into a meme about cats.
And that speaks to the media's failure to care about what's going on in these communities.
If we have to meme about it to get the media to care, we're going to keep on doing it because the media could should care about what's going on.
I saw you say that.
He's absolutely correct.
A meme, which is short for memetics, by the way.
You understand this?
There are people who are saying it's happening.
Don't you care about this, Caitlin?
Always angry.
Look, he's so angry.
Why are you so angry?
Homeless problem.
I don't know of a single homeless Haitian in this town because they all got vouchers.
But I can show you a whole bunch of people that have been displaced because I'm that guy.
Rob, you know.
For 25 years, I've worked with the homeless in this community.
You know, a lot of people don't know because I'm not the guy out there blowing the horn.
Because it ain't about me.
It's the Jesus in me that goes out there and does it.
Yes, sir.
Trust me, there's days I'm tired.
But I'll get into homeless camps that nobody in a suit and tie will walk into.
None.
They trust me because I've never let them down.
You know, and guys, if you don't think it's here right now, in October, we are getting ready to hit a wall here.
There is not any relief for the homeless.
The homeless people in this community are not the people you think they are.
The squatters that aren't happening.
It's not there.
There's veterans.
Come see me.
I'm not real hard to find.
Ask anybody on the street.
They'll tell you how to get a hold of me.
I'll take you there.
And no, they don't want your toothpaste and your peanut butter sandwiches.
You hear that?
They want you to come up with a solution.
They don't want your peanut butter sandwiches.
For some reason, there was this thing where...
I'm not going to go into detail.
Mrs. L knows about that.
Peanut butter sandwiches.
They don't want your peanut butter sandwiches.
And no, they don't want your toothpaste and your peanut butter sandwiches.
They want you to come up with a solution to why they're displaced.
Why they lived in a house.
I personally know, and I'll testify under oath, my hand to God, Somebody that lost their house.
They were there seven years.
The landlord said, hey, I need you to move out.
Find a temporary place.
I'm going to remodel it.
And then you can come back.
It was a lie.
They moved him out.
Tripled the rent.
Follow the money.
Here you go.
We've hit a nerve here.
We've hit a nerve.
Isn't that great?
You want another nerve hit?
My father immigrated from Haiti to the United States in the late 60s as a teenager, and I want to talk about these recent comments about the Haitians in Springfield, Ohio.
First, I want to say my father and I are now estranged, but I did know him in my very, very young years, and he immigrated.
He was one person, and they weren't sending, you know, thousands of Haitians in one area.
He wasn't eating people's pets and he didn't practice voodoo.
But he did say that most of the island, the majority of the island does practice voodoo.
The reason they eat cats is for two reasons.
Number one is survival.
This is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.
You can't just go to a food bank like you can.
Not communist.
Not socialist.
Not Marxist.
Capitalist.
Or just go to McDonald's and get some free or cheap food.
Unless, of course, there's a Christian missionary there.
People in the United States have a really hard time imagining that type of thing, but it is true.
Second, they do do animal sacrifices for their religion.
Yep.
Voodoo.
They make these animal sacrifices to these gods for different reasons.
You can do your own research on this.
Do I think voodoo is a demonic religion?
Yes, I do.
Obviously, that doesn't mean that you hate these people.
These people need prayer.
But you can't just take over all these people from another country and expect it to work.
Not to mention, it doesn't fix the problems of that country.
And there's more people left in Haiti that we can bring over.
It's not racist to acknowledge that this is a problem.
It's not racist to talk about these things that are happening.
Not just white Americans saying this is black Americans.
You can look at the people in Springfield, Ohio saying that this is happening.
You all just want to joke about Trump and say that he's crazy for saying that this is happening instead of actually checking at all to see if this is happening.
You want to make jokes about these things.
Well, what if it were happening to you and your community?
And no, it's beyond eating their pets, even though that is bad enough.
Now, while we're on this subject, Let me just say something to you.
Let me remind you a few things.
But first, I've got to remind you some other things too, which are very, very critical and very, very important.
Number one.
Number one.
I want to remind you, this is almost cruel, but not really.
We are never going to get into the position where we will know this starvation.
But we could know very, very soon by virtue of either.
Some type of catastrophe, supply chain breakdown, where emergency food is necessary.
PrepareWithLionel.com PrepareWithLionel.com I have absolutely no words to explain how thorough, how incredible, and how thankful so many people are.
Do not Listen to me.
Do not say, wow, that doesn't happen to us.
We're not talking about the extreme.
We're talking about what would you do if you had to go a week, a week, just a week, where stores were closed and your kids are freaking out.
What are you going to do?
Potato chips?
Banana chips?
Jerky?
Maybe go fishing?
No.
PrepareWithLionel.com.
There's a 300...
Special right now.
This is so important.
This is the deal of deals.
A four week emergency food kit right now.
You go there.
Preparewithlionel.com Alright my friends.
Now I want to talk to you about this which is very very interesting.
Very very interesting.
And I will say this to you and remind you of this and bring this to your attention.
In Florida, where I'm from, I met a number of Cubans.
Cubans, part of the Caribbean.
And they believed, not all, but more than you would ever imagine, in this thing called Santeria.
Or Santeria.
And the Santeria was a mixture of voodoo, of...
There's an African contingent.
There's so much that is there.
And what they believe in, and what's critical for you to understand and to grasp, is this idea that there is a...
How do we say this?
They believed that there is something in the life force itself.
How do I say this?
The force, the energy of life.
That they want to tap into.
And I had a friend of mine whose wife was very, very much into this.
And there was a Santerro that, this is the priest, who came to their home and in the, in the, these are not crazy people, but in their garage they had Like a shower curtain or something.
And they would sacrifice.
They're not talking about anything big.
But like pigeons or small birds.
They needed to actually draw blood from it.
This is critical.
To draw blood from it.
And it was that life force that they're exchanging and they're tapping into.
They used Now, this is Santeria.
There's Santeria.
There's Brujaria.
Brujaria is like the black magic in video.
But what I'm saying is, this is a...
It goes on.
And it's going on now.
I mean, it's not...
It's how pervasive it is.
So for Caitlin to sit back in her little chair and cock her eyebrow and look bemused and confused, you're missing the point as to what's happening.
This is happening, dear friends.
It's happening.
You have to be aware of it.
That's all.
Now, we've got to also let you know about how people are still...
There's talk today about, who is it, Mark Penn or others, that there's an ABC whistleblower who's going to talk about revealing information as to how this debate was slanted.
We'll see what happens with that.
Now this, for lack of a better word, Howie Kurtz used to be reliable sources.
I think Stelter is back on.
He was on CNN at the time.
Listen to what old Howie had to say about the debate.
Live in Washington for us.
So Howie, how do you grade ABC on this debate?
Sandra, ABC gets a D minus, and that's being generous.
In fact, the network's moderators were so blatantly biased against Donald Trump that it vindicated his pregame criticism of ABC as dishonest.
Now, putting a...
Wait a minute.
What happened?
Hold it.
What the hell happened?
Was that it?
I think that was it.
Howie Kurtz live in Washington for us.
Well, that was it.
Sorry.
I was confused.
I was expecting much, much more.
Sorry about that.
Saul says, hang on a minute, let me see this.
Saul says regarding, yeah, Caitlin, we're not going to say that.
Again, I don't want to make comments on physical.
I want to talk about attitude, anger, that's all.
Crypto Domini says, Moses lived until the ribbons of 120 and his life force was not abated.
Okay, very good.
Thank you for that.
Now, I'm not trying to argue one way or another about whether this is legitimate.
Please, I'm not going there yet.
That's not the purpose.
All I know is, for reasons that I find fascinating, these people are going crazy.
Now, let's talk about something.
I've always enjoyed this feller named John Stossel.
And John Stossel, he's kind of a libertarian feller who's pretty good.
And he was, during the course of his youth, he had problems with stuttering.
And I remember the time, whenever I hear stuttering, I just, ooh, I feel this, because when I was a kid, I figured a way around it.
I was very lucky mine was not organic.
And one time I interviewed him, and I said, so, you know, I think we have something in common, because both of us did something for the Stuttering Foundation.
I understand that you had something for the stuttering when you were a kid.
And he was like, mm-hmm.
I was like, very...
Not very nice.
It's like, okay, alright.
But his work is very good.
And as you know, there is this thing that we hear about constantly called slavery.
And we must constantly be reminded of how we are responsible for slavery.
We are.
We.
We are responsible.
That we must always carry the burden and the The pain.
Yes, Stossel is a libertarian.
Libertarian, what does that mean?
I don't know.
By the way, this John Galt and Ayn Rand, I know this.
Ayn Rand is the most overrated nonsense anybody has ever come across.
It's almost like psychopathy to a jazz beat.
And I'll never understand it.
That's all I want to say.
Because there's a lot of...
And you're entitled to think what you want.
But it's the most simplistic.
And there are these Gultians and the Randians who say...
Please.
But listen to this.
Very interesting.
And I think this is important for us to take this time.
Because in New York, there's this piece.
This legislation that's going to be dealing with the notion of, what am I trying to say?
Of reparations and the like.
And by the way, she hasn't.
I wish somebody would have brought up the idea with Kamala the other day.
But listen to this.
It's not too, too long.
I think it's worth watching and my noting.
Sin of slavery.
The original sin of slavery.
Today, Americans are taught, when it comes to slavery, America was the worst.
The Atlantic slave trade from Africa to the Americas was different from any other type of slavery.
The United States didn't inherit slavery.
Remember this fellow?
Remember this guy?
This was, what was his name?
This was Hillary's.
This was Hillary's Tim Wall.
Slavery from anybody.
We created it.
American slavery was worse because...
The slaves were reduced to property.
They were channeled property.
No other system of slavery did that except American slavery.
That's complete nonsense.
Wilfred Reilly is a political science professor and author of Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me.
Generational slavery.
Like, if you're the son of a slave, you're a slave.
That was extraordinarily common.
Slavery around the world was slavery.
Books like this.
Unfinished Nation.
Slaves in Africa were kept unfree only for a fixed term.
No, is the short answer.
Most of the slaves taken by these sort of players would be either kept as slaves for their entire life or, more likely, sold to the whites and the Arabs in two years.
Today, partly thanks to the New York Times.
Sold.
Remember, sold.
I'm 1619 Project.
Students are taught that America's slavery was unlike anything that existed before.
We're the worst society ever.
We've done things that no one else has ever done.
And sometimes there's nothing wrong with acknowledging your historical mistakes.
I mean, I'm black, Irish, a bit Native American, at least per the family lore.
I mean...
Now, I was going to say something, but I am so conditioned, don't ever say anything.
I would have guessed, by looking at this gentleman, that he was mixed race.
But I can't say that.
Why?
I've been around, I've seen, not a good thing, not a bad thing, it's a nothing thing.
It's like saying, are you, are you, do you have any Mexican?
And you can't, you just see, you can just, but we can with this.
But, but I was correct.
And so is anybody else who's paying attention.
Those are three peoples that have experienced a great deal historically.
Nothing wrong with acknowledging that.
But it's extremely odd to focus only on the negatives of your society and to exaggerate those.
Americans are taught that slavers caught people in Africa and shipped them here.
But few were taught that most slaves were not shipped to the United States.
Between 10.7 million and 12 million slaves from Africa went to the New World.
We got a little under 400,000.
Under 400,000 out of 10 million.
The extreme focus on slavery in the United States, why did that happen?
One reason is that a lot of black people survived here.
Slavery was harsh, but it's a lot less harsh than clearing the Brazilian jungle.
All right, but American blacks are at a disadvantage.
They have less capital.
Financial and educational capital.
What's the harm in pointing out how abusive white people were?
The harm is that pointing out how abusive white people were is not going to get black Americans anymore capital.
Oh, oh, oh, this is this is not this is not going to to in any way approve commensurate or consonant with the.
With the Kemala message.
Most of the problems of the modern black community don't have anything to do with historical ethnic conflict 160 years ago.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
Stop it.
This, this, this, this kills DEI.
This is, oh, this is heretical.
Great society asked not how much, but how good.
Riley says most of the problems began when welfare began.
Oh, oh, this is heresy!
The crime in the black community, every time I've tried to break this out, increased about 800% between, say, 1963 and 1993.
Racism didn't increase between 1960 and the modern era.
You're looking at the impact of the great society, the welfare programs.
Riley argues it's better to teach the truth that almost every society had slavery.
The Aztecs.
Okay, I don't want to spend my time with it, but please, it's a very, very good thing.
This is the bottom line.
You see, remember the words of Tolstoy.
History would be a wonderful thing if only it were true.
And in our American history, we love to embellish, we love to expand upon things.
And we repeat tropes and memes and tropisms and little anecdotes and mythology.
We say it.
We do it all the time.
All the time.
And what happens is, when you come forward and you bring up anything, any fact which has been accepted, and by the way, you can go into any group and you can see anything, and somebody in that group will take offense with you.
There is no...
One way of thinking that you can pronounce or enunciate that everybody will agree with.
It doesn't exist.
It doesn't exist.
History is a myth.
History is a joke.
History is what the winners decide.
Napoleon said history is a myth that men agree to believe.
History is for the winners.
I think either Hindenburg or Churchill.
But it's a joke.
And what we're seeing right now is this joke and facts, guns, gun violence, what's responsible, and tropes and tropisms.
And whenever something happens, whenever something happens that seems to be out of this world in terms of horrible, people will immediately say, oh, that's crazy.
That's not.
Truth is indeed stranger than fiction.
Indeed it is.
Years ago, and I don't want to in any way compare or suggest that there is any comparison, but when people were told about what was happening in Poland, Eastern Europe, to Jews and Poles and Slavs and gay homosexuals, it seemed so horrible, so horrific, because it was, that they said, this can't be true.
They can't be doing this.
This can't be because of the horror.
Remember what McLuhan said, that little lies are very hard to keep quiet.
But big lies are easy because of our incredulity.
I remember one time interviewing somebody years ago regarding female Circumcision.
It is a term that is wrong.
It is a clitoridectomy and labial ablation and all this.
It's horrible.
I mean, it didn't make any sense.
But because people could not understand it, they said, oh, that's rare or that's whatever.
Kenya from Cali says, it's true.
Grandma was born in rural Georgia in 1931.
She said she never experienced racism until she went to Atlanta in the 1960s and saw picketing against integration.
You know, I appreciate that so much.
I wish, Kenya, we could figure out.
I would love to start from square one and talk about something.
But let me ask.
And I've always...
Whenever we've had the chance, I've asked friends and said, have you ever experienced racism?
Now, what's the first thing Uncle Lenny always teaches you?
What's the first thing?
Define racism.
What does that mean?
Everybody has experienced some form of ism.
Ladies, gentlemen, but ladies in particular.
When you get older, there is an ageism you cannot believe.
It's the weirdest thing.
Now, how much?
I don't know.
What's the bias?
I don't know.
Is there anybody here who is extremely overweight?
If you don't think you are...
People will sometimes look at you.
They're not going to deny you.
Housing, they're not going to arrest you.
But you...
You will feel the impacts of racism, ageism.
I've had friends of mine who've said they've gone into stores and they felt that they were being watched, that they were...
But the question now is, do you have anything that is responsible that is purely because of racism?
When I was a prosecutor, I...
Left and then went into private practice.
When you go into private practice after you've been a prosecutor, a lot of times, because you don't have any clients, you'll pick up court-appointed cases, conflicts.
Public defender, legal aid will have a conflict, and you'll pick up a case the judge will assign you, and you will be handed a case.
I had, starting off, nothing.
Well, I shouldn't say that, but mostly black defendants.
Black clients.
It was a conflict.
I would go to the jail.
I would go into the Hillsborough County Jail, and I would look around, and I one time said, excuse me, yes, is there a white jail?
What is this?
And people, yeah.
And I thought to myself, I said, this is really something.
And as I looked around, being young or yen, Being young and being idealistic and wanting to make things better, I said there must necessarily be some form of institutional racism that accounts for such a proliferation of these folks involved in the criminal justice system.
How can 14% of the population in some cases make up 60-70% of the Remember, not the criminal defendants.
Well, that's different.
But people who are in jail.
And as I looked into this, because I thought at first, it's got to be racism.
Why are they there?
Well, for one thing, they can't bond out.
Oh, okay.
Why can't they bond out?
Is it because they can't make the money?
Because they don't have the money, they can't get a bondsman?
Is that it?
Or is it because of other offenses?
Ah!
You see, if you have, when you're brought into a jail, and you have the booking officer, he'll basically look at you, what are you charged with?
Is this a felony?
A misdemeanor?
A look?
Any priors?
And the bond, the bail will be set by virtue of what you're charged with, and also your prior record.
Well, they had a prior record.
And the more I'm talking to people, I'm saying, Are you the only one in your family who's ever been arrested?
No.
No.
How many of you have had people, how many can say that none of your brothers or sisters or parents or cousins have ever been arrested?
I think most people can.
Most people can.
In the communities that I was dealing with, that wasn't the case.
So it says, Uncle Al, partial truths or half-truths are often more insidious.
Then total falsehoods because they could be partly defended, indeed, and partly denied.
We could talk all day about what is and what is not the truth.
Crypto says, man, I really appreciate more and more every day, Uncle L. Thank you.
Thank you for that.
I appreciate that.
That made my...
I think you've been appreciating me, maybe, I hope, any of it.
Or maybe you just appreciate.
Thank you.
Now, when people come along and they say, well, let's talk about something.
First and foremost, when you want to talk about, and I'm talking about one particular group of people.
I'm talking about a group of black Americans who are in the criminal justice system.
99.9% are not.
The majority of black folks have never been arrested for anything.
There's nothing inherent about the black experience.
But within this 14%, it's amazing the distribution.
If you were raised in a situation, if you were raised in a situation, not that everybody is, but if you were raised in a situation where your family unit is matric-centric, maybe there's a mother or a grandmother involved who was the source, who was the center of the family.
Fathers are non-existent or fathers are not there.
Maybe they have different fathers, whatever it is.
But if you are there and everybody...
In your immediate family, again, this is not, this is a particular faction, a fraction, a percentage of the entire black experience.
But if they've been in jail, there's no stigma involved.
If they've been arrested, no stigma involved.
If you have, if nobody has ever been to college, nobody's ever been to a university, nobody's ever been to high school, what do you expect?
Now, now, now, now.
What causes that?
Slavery?
No.
How come you're like that, but this other family isn't?
I don't.
No.
And this is the part that we have to understand.
Why do some people do this?
I've told you a million times, and I'm going to tell you again.
I'm fascinated by serial killers.
There's so few of them.
Why you?
Who are you to be a serial killer?
Bernard Giles?
I still think one of the best things that Piers Morgan ever did was Bernard Giles, who said he killed, I think it was five or something, I forget, within like six months.
I mean, he broke every rule there was.
He just went crazy.
Why?
There are people in prisons, horrible people, serial, some are serial, rapists are serial.
They've never been serial killers.
They never had.
They've never.
Yeah, but serial killers were into bed, not into, but there's a tendency of bedwetting and uresis, arson, teasing animals or consuming animals.
Well, other people were the same way.
What's the same way?
It's the same thing of trying to define Hitler.
Why was Hitler like that?
Why was a National Socialist?
Well, you know, he was a frustrated artist, treated shabbily by the, you know, they always told you the story about how the Jewish art profession, Other people did the same thing.
Well, he might have been a late homosexual.
Well, so what?
Goebbels had a club foot.
You try.
There's no reason for this.
But when society tells you you're different, we're going to help you out.
Well, look at this.
How do you help people out?
Obviously, you've got to give them money.
That's the way to do it.
Do you remember Daniel Patrick Moynihan who wrote that piece about the black family?
He was excoriated.
He was from Hell's Kitchen.
His father, he knew this.
He spoke of experience.
The truth hurts.
Major Michael says, first I want to apologize for not clarifying an earlier comment where I was impersonating someone working behind a counter.
That feels entitled to act like they don't care.
Second, voters' choice is rational society or chaos.
First of all, as to your apologia, thank you.
I don't know what it was.
I didn't read it.
And yes, I have a friend of mine, like I told you, this fellow, you can sit him down there.
Very, very, you love the guy.
Very smart.
Very, um...
Very successful.
And I said, what?
I know you don't like Trump.
I understand that too.
I didn't like John McCain, but I didn't hate him.
I didn't like Romney.
I didn't hate him.
Why do you hate Trump?
Pilgrim says, it's all a rogues gallery.
Seriously, dude.
Literally, bruh.
Literally.
Thank you for that.
How is it?
What is it?
I don't understand this.
If we were someplace, and I look down, and I'm thinking, we are far from, I'm thinking, your leg, we're scavengers, we're, you know, On a desert island and you cut yourself.
My God, your leg is becoming gangrenous.
It's rotten and you're going to die.
Oh my God!
I'm going to have to take off your leg.
What?
Yeah, I don't normally do this, but you're going to die.
You know the old joke about the venom and the snake?
What did the doctor say?
You're going to die.
Are you...
Are you going to cut his leg off?
I might.
Yeah, I don't know how I'm going to do it, but he's going to die.
But he won't be able to live.
He's going to die.
You don't understand this.
This is America.
I feel the same way.
You're going to die.
It's like when people have cancer and you're saying, yeah, but you know this chemotherapy, yes, it makes you nauseous, but you're going.
To die without it.
Trump is chemotherapy.
Steve says, please look at the Elton anomaly on Truth is Christ.
Okay?
Thank you.
YouTube, I will do that.
And thank you for that.
I'm not going to do it right now, though, because I'm talking, but I will do that.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Now you've piqued my curiosity.
Elton, Elton John.
How did these people look at this?
How did you?
And I told him, I said, how is it that you understand?
How is it?
How is it?
By the way, I've got a brand new, a bit of, I love this video.
Nobody cares about Shannon Sharp, but I did one on him.
And I want to bring it to your attention.
He is, I think it's one of the funniest stories.
Frankly, I'm sorry.
Let me just bring it to you.
This is a guy who, Left his phone on or did something during a moment of amour.
And somehow the audio was transmitted out.
And anybody watch that?
Because I had a way of handling that that I thought he should have.
Sirs, how do you feel?
How do you deal with family, friends, whatever, with TDS?
Oh!
It's like I did today with my friend.
I've been just sending him all these things.
Just because I drive these people crazy.
I drive them crazy.
Drive them absolutely crazy.
And these are the things which I find to be so incredibly...
And I said, now I know you don't...
I did one for the private channel today, which is interesting.
But the lies...
The series of lies.
Now, by the way, I told my friend, I said, you know, look, I said, I don't think she's lying because I don't think she knows what the hell she's talking.
She's just telling people, Charlottesville, you know that.
It was on purpose trying to prove he's not gay.
Don't know what that means, but thank you.
Don't know what that means, but oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I'm sorry.
Duh.
No, I don't.
Not really.
Because his first thing was, well, they hacked my phone and, you know, don't.
He should have said, I don't know.
Hey, Shannon, what?
You, you, you uploaded an audio.
Of what?
Of you having some kind of amorous?
I don't know what that is.
Has your phone in it?
Yep.
What is it?
Well, it's a desk.
It looks like a desk.
Is that you?
I don't know.
What do you mean you don't know?
I don't know.
I'm not very good with this.
What do you mean you're not good with it?
I'm just not.
They would have talked about him forever.
Come on, you're going to have to admit it.
Admit what?
I don't know what that is.
It's your phone!
Who is that?
Who's what?
I don't know what that is.
Do you have a butt dial?
Could be a movie or a song.
I don't know what this is.
Anyway, that's that.
So we can talk about this all day long.
Listen, when you watch a football game, when you watch it, do you ever watch a game?
Have you ever watched a football game where when the other team beat your favorite team?
You switched because the other team beat your team?
Does that make sense?
If you're a Yankees fan, oh, those are the most obnoxious people in the world, but anyway, but if you're a Yankees fan, and let's say the Red Sox beat them, are you going to not be a Yankee fan?
No.
So what is the purpose of this debate?
I don't know what it is.
I seriously don't know what it is.
I've never in my life known anything like what I'm hearing and what I'm seeing regarding the people who hate.
It's almost sexual why they hate him.
It was critical.
Mrs. Nell had a very important day yesterday on Capitol Hill.
And she was exquisite.
Please check out her Twitter, at Lynn's Warriors.
She was there appearing before there was a Senate subcommittee.
It was incredible.
So she went by our favorite place.
It's this White House gift shop.
She got a Trump I guess it's a bookmark here.
And he says, it is time to show the world that America is back.
Bigger and better and stronger than ever before.
There he is.
And when this gift shop, they're right by Treasury and the White House is right there.
It was so packed during Trump's year.
It's just packed.
We got some chocolates to give.
That's where I got all of my...
I've got more memorabilia than you can imagine.
But the Trump stuff sold out.
Still!
Still!
So when you're dealing with somebody who's a TDS, I don't know what to tell you about this.
I don't know.
It's like serial killers.
Why?
I don't know.
Martin Higgins says, what is four legs?
And Chase is Katz.
Mrs. Katz and her lawyer.
Very funny.
Have a laugh for a moment.
You are very funny.
Thank you for that.
Pilgrim Media says, pet?
Either Pate or pate and gnashing on geese still denied?
I guess.
Listen, all I know is that works.
All I know is that makes people say something.
All I know is that this is driving people crazy.
And I love to tell these people, you know they're doing that, right?
And Mayorkas knows it.
And how many other places are there eating animals and pets?
It drives them nuts!
So do it.
I told you before, you laugh all you want to your friends, but that makes more sense to them.
Okay?
To anything else.
That is, this is how base our society is.
All right, dear friends, so I want to thank you.
Crypto, I mean, let me go back here.
Pilgrim, Martin Higgins, Major, Michael, thank you so much.
Soul, Stephen Calvert, Pilgrim Media, again, Major.
Michael, thank you.
Who else is there?
Kenya from Cali.
Wow, your grandmother's night was 90. I hope she's still with us.
93. I would have loved to have had my grandmother alive today.
You do know that I'm an absolute sucker for old women.
They just melt my heart.
They melt.
My heart.
I just...
I love them.
They can do no wrong in my mind.
None.
I just...
There's something which is so beautiful.
And also something else, again, you would have loved this.
There was...
I one time went...
There was a show on Broadway.
It was Motown.
And Mrs. L and I went.
And Motown was just...
I can't tell you.
From my generation, it was everything.
So we went to see it, and it was...
It looked like...
A lot of women were...
I guess they were my age, a little bit afterwards, because you always think you're young.
But they were older black women, but dressed naturally, very elegantly, but almost in that...
And you might know what I mean.
Almost like the church look.
The Sunday go to meet in church.
Very proper, very, not just going out for, but I mean elegant, very formal, if you will.
And I thought, oh, look at this.
And the elderly black women, okay, fine.
When the music started, it was like nothing you've ever seen.
It was beauteous.
Because I realized this was the music of my generation.
It was the most incredible thing I've ever seen in my life.
Back to the racism thing.
It is so overstated, so overrated.
And so, as far as there being systematic, systemic, inherent, institutional racism where either white or black people think they are either superior to somebody else or that they are inferior.
Let me ask, A black family, black man or woman, would you prefer that your daughter or son marry a person of a different race?
Yes or no?
Just put out a questionnaire.
Most would say no.
Not because the question is, do you prefer that they...
No.
Would you disown them?
Of course not.
Would you...
No, but the idea that, oh, so you're racist?
That's that trick question.
How many black folks have friends of theirs, true friends who are white?
Pew!
I don't know where this goes through.
The people who in this culture today still suffer more than anybody else are women.
Because the 13th Amendment prohibited slavery, but the 19th Amendment allowed women to vote.
Women.
And even within different ethnicities, there is a chauvinism, you can imagine.
Here's one more for you.
The African-American population in this country, historically and statistically, are comprised of what would be called conservatives.
In California, when they had a project or proposition, whatever the hell it was, about gay marriage, people thought the white liberals said, oh, black folks are obviously going to be for this.
Same-sex marriage?
In 1967, in the case of Loving against Virginia, the Supreme Court invalidated anti-miscegenation laws.
I don't know how many there were at the time, but there were some places where you...
By the way, one of the reasons why it was so unconstitutional was almost equal protection because it was only black and white, not black and Asian, black and white.
Okay, so they said, well, obviously black folks are going to side with us.
Guess what?
Huge composites of black folks said in California, they said, are you suggesting that being black is the same as being gay or vice versa?
Do you think we're going to vote for this gay marriage because we remember what?
Anti-miscegenation?
What?
Absolutely not.
Almost exclusively thumbs down.
They couldn't believe it because they presumed.
That black folks shared this...
What's the word?
This, this, this liberal ideology.
Nonsense!
People don't know each other.
You know that's true.
Okay.
All right, dear friends.
I want to thank you.
Please make sure you follow Mrs. L. Lynn's Warriors on YouTube.
Make sure you do that.
Make sure you also follow her on Twitter, or X as we call it, as well.
Let me also tell you, my dear friends, that we must, must, must, must remind you of our dear friends, our dear and glorious friends, at MyPillow.com, MyPillow.com, promo code Lionel.
Go there, MyPillow.com slash Lionel, and just check out the variety, the multiplicity of clothing.
Slippers and pillows.
It will blow your mind.

Nelson A. says, seniors here are not taken care of in Japan.
They are royalty.
I live with my parents.
I live with my parents.
Well, that's another thing, too.
If ever there was a culture, from what I have seen, Now, I've not been to Japan, so I may not know what the hell I'm talking about.
But an absolute...
I love respect, quiet, deferential...
I don't know what I do.
I love to watch YouTube videos that say, for expats, don't walk down the food eating in the subway.
Don't make any noise.
If you're eating something, turn around the corner.
Don't let people see you.
To take a...
A Kleenex or a tissue and to blow your nose and put it back in your pocket, they say it's the most disgusting thing anybody's ever said.
I love this!
Now, I remember sometimes somebody saying, it was a video I saw where he loved Japan and somebody told him, now you understand, you are not Japanese.
We will never mistreat you.
We will never...
You have all the rights and the privileges.
But you are not Japanese.
The gentleman was a regular American Caucasian.
There's no hard feelings.
No hard feelings.
It was very interesting, too.
I knew years ago, a guy I knew, became friends with from Japan.
I said, what's the first thing you notice?
He says, the variation.
In Japan, everybody looks Japanese.
Heights, weights, whatever.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But still.
Multiplicity and heterogeneity are things that we like and we think are good.
And diversity and the like.
But in many respects, it can breed a kind of a disunion.
A disjointed non- I don't know what the word is.
Connectedness.
That's all.
I I love to hear and to see what people do in terms of customs.
I would love to go to some foreign university and have people ask me, tell me what you think about Americans.
I will not be offended.
I want to hear.
Tell me what you think.
Tell me.
It's fascinating.
There are people, depending upon where you live in the country, who've never known really anybody who's Jewish.
Oh, there might be somebody, you know, but be not, you know, we're talking about, what, less than 2% of the population?
Here in New York is another story.
But think about that.
You've never met somebody who's Jewish?
Never?
Ever?
And you have no frame of reference in terms of, because here it's very interesting because it's culture and it's food and the religion part, yes, yes, that's Judaism, but Jewish is a different story.
I cannot tell you that I, if ever there was something that I absolutely, almost, almost inadvertently found that My God, this makes so much sense to me.
The sense of humor.
And also, it's a Northeastern.
It's a New York thing.
It's not just whatever.
Incredible.
I love ethnicities.
I love ethnic jokes.
I love the way we're...
Have you made...
Not made fun.
We always talk about Canadians.
Remember, an ethnic joke is only funny if it's true.
There's different things.
There's a...
There's one guy who was explaining the different sounds of languages of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese.
You've seen it.
What's his name?
Killjoy or kill whatever his name is.
It's brilliant.
I never thought about it.
Never had the ear for it.
Never knew enough about it.
I love in New York, Little Korea, right around Herald Square, 32nd Street.
It's just...
24 hours.
This one area, little Korea.
It's incredible.
Never close.
Never.
Never.
One of my favorite places, there's no lock on the door.
They've never closed.
I asked her one time, I said, why don't you ever close?
She goes, close?
Close?
I said, who are the best workers?
She says, Mexican.
I said, what about Japanese?
She says, too lazy.
I said, wait a minute.
The Japanese?
This is a woman.
I'm not.
Absolute diehard.
And there's a...
Have you noticed?
Do you know enough?
Do you know enough how you can see Korean looks versus Asian?
It's fascinating.
And you see this?
I love to look at...
You know what I could do all day long?
To look at pictures.
Beautiful pictures of old...
100-year-old.
Indian tribes, Navajo, Comanche, Sitting Bull, that look!
It doesn't exist anymore!
It's Asian meets, I don't know what it is, it's just wow!
You can see it kind of in Eskimo a little bit, Elliot, because remember the land bridge and how?
I love this!
I love how one time when Mrs. Ellen and I happened to be at a In Minnesota for the Republican National Convention.
And my friend was there.
He passed away since.
He goes, look around here.
We went to some restaurant bar.
He goes, look around here.
I said, yeah.
He goes, notice anything?
Look at the people here.
What do you notice?
And I said, I don't know.
He says, they're huge.
I don't mean fat.
I mean, big.
They were all like Vikings.
They were from Minnesota.
He goes, look at these people.
I said, oh my God, you're right.
They were just big.
All of them.
Fascinating.
And there must be a reason for this.
I love the idea of how...
See, I love that stuff.
And how people came up with the word black for skin.
I don't even know where this came from.
Of all the names.
And I don't know where yellow comes from.
I don't get that either.
I don't understand.
I don't know where these...
I don't know.
It's fascinating.
It's absolutely fascinating.
And I think most of us say, and I think most of us who are here right now would agree with me, there is not any of us who believe that somehow, by virtue of our birth, by virtue of my genetics, by virtue of that somehow, I am superior to an entire race or group of people by virtue of what exactly?
Nah.
Nobody thinks that.
Sorry.
I may think I'm a hell of a lot better than a lot of people.
Oh, I know that.
I know that.
There are people I think sometimes I meet who are scum and they come in all colors.
And all you got to do is just watch the videos of people being arrested.
And it comes in all colors.
Insane is insane.
All right, enough of that, dear friends.
All right.
Have a great and a glorious and a noble time.
Remember, everybody you know who has TDS, everybody, I want you to text them, call them, and say, so what do you think about this?
Are you in favor of eating cats and pets?
Drives them crazy.
Listen, it's okay.
It's okay.
I mean, one man's, you know.
But I mean, don't you think that Gay Mala could have said something about that?
At least for the pets.
I mean, don't you have dogs?
That's what I'm doing.
Because I drive people crazy.
And it's not a very long ride.
All right, my friends.
Oh, Crypto says, I'm a trucker, just left Minneapolis.
I concur, ethnicity, ethnicities everywhere.
I live it, I love it.
Oh, to be a truck driver.
To see this country.
To see this country and just...
Oh my God.
I just...
And how these folks kind of settle in.
There are three states in this country.
Three states that are their own world.
Texas, West Virginia, and Louisiana.
West, by God, Virginia.
These people are from another planet.
They think they're better than everybody.
I mean, in a good way.
They're, like, so independent.
A friend sent me, I'll never forget, I hope I've got it somewhere, it was a post, it was a picture.
It was at a gas station.
It was cigarettes, this and that, and brass knuckles.
I thought, he's at West Virginia.
God love it.
I loved it.
When I was in, when you were in high school, college, It was a Christmas time.
And I was delivering liquor.
It was my Christmas job.
And I got to travel with these folks.
And I remember one of my drivers that I was with was a guy named Willie.
And there were names of black folks.
Willie, Tyrone.
You'll remember this, but Willie.
Willie, when I were traveling, we were traveling in mid-Florida.
You know, Lakeland, Polk County, kind of where Grady Judd is.
And there was a sign that says, welcome to Klan country.
This was a sign!
I mean, it wasn't...
But still, it's like...
And I'm looking at him, and he's laughing.
I said, is that what I think it is?
He says, yep.
I mean, we didn't see anything.
It might have been a vestige.
It might have been something else.
But there's something about being in a truck and going...
And going to truck stops and diners and all this stuff and just seeing the land.
Going in the backs of Chinese restaurants.
I'll never forget one time.
We were delivering to a Chinese restaurant.
I don't know why.
There was a guy who had, you know, the big PVC buckets of like duck sauce.
Normally they would have like a blender.
I don't know why.
I guess he had his arm inside this thing.
Going like this, swirling the duck sauce.
His arm.
No gloves.
And you can see the hair.
Very hairy arms.
Kind of wafting.
I thought, oh my god!
Maybe it added flavor.
I don't know.
But truck drivers?
Anybody been to Bucky's?
I want to go to a Bucky's and I don't know why.
I don't know why.
There's something about truck drivers and that whole World Red Sovine and the great Dale Watson trucker songs.
Oh my god.
Just incredible.
Enough of that.
Alright my friends.
Have a great duck sauce on an egg rolls is the woo.
My friend Chuck Leonard used to be one of the original WABC rock and roll jocks in the 60s and Chuck Leonard.
Chuck was a black gentleman who had a voice and he loved him.
And one day he told me that he opened up his drawer.
He had like a junk drawer sort of thing and he had packets from these Chinese restaurants over the years.
Duck sauce, soy sauce, and spicy mustard.
The three packs, the Trinity.
So he took them all, threw a chicken into a crock pot, cut the tops off, just squirted, emptied everyone.
They last forever.
Emptied everyone into this.
I don't know what else he put.
And he said, what the hell?
He said it was a flavor the likes of which you cannot believe.
There's a place on 10th Avenue in the hood and it's called Desi somethings where all the cab drivers go.
24 hours and they have Punjabi in it.
The smells and it's sad to say we're losing our our cab drivers.
I love that's Nick.
One thing about New York.
You go to Astoria for Greek.
You can go to little Odessa, Brighton Beach, Russian and Ukrainian.
There's little Brazil, little Korea, little Italy.
There's Arthur Avenue in the Bronx, which is the original, the best little Italy there is.
Arthur Avenue in the Bronx is just like, it's wonderful.
Enzo's, the olive bread.
I mean, just...
I'm going to leave you with this one thought.
I think we...
Could all be friends in the world if we would just not listen to government, but listen to people's food.
Mrs. L loves Cuban food.
Loves it.
I had a friend of mine who was Pakistani, and his mother made me rice.
I've never had rice, like, never.
I always saw rice, and it was like, eh, eh.
In Florida, it was old.
Cracker lady.
Cracker meant you were born in Florida, not Cracker the white version.
And she said, you like peas?
I said, what?
You like peas?
I said, peas?
Yeah, you know, I'm thinking Green Giant, Lesore, peas.
You know, peas.
I said, what do you mean peas?
Black-eyed peas, butter peas, field peas, sugar cruddy, butter peas, field peas, hopping johns.
I said, what are you?
I'm not done yet.
And she went through, I don't know how many peas.
So I became a pea aficionado.
Great protein, great, but I loved it.
I had no idea.
And it was basically southern cooking.
Black cooking, same thing.
And let me tell you one thing.
I don't care what anybody says.
Oh, look at crypto.
I know, let's eat.
You know what?
I may not eat meat, but that doesn't mean I don't love it.
But growing up in the South, in Florida, if you wanted ribs, you did not have any of this stuff.
We went into the projects.
And it was called The Project.
It was called The Blue Flame.
And it was Moses White.
And it was the greatest.
There was something about it.
Ribs on white bread with a sauce.
That's it.
Sides were eh.
Loved collard greens.
Loved that stuff.
But sides were really not that big of a deal.
It was ribs.
And pulled pork?
Never.
To take beautiful meat and chop it up into baby food?
No.
No.
Ribs on white bread.
Wrap it up.
That's it.
Fat sauce or regular?
That's it.
Always on the side.
Never.
Never, ever, ever, ever on it.
On the side only.
The Bitblock says, Uncle Lenny, will I be okay if I eat McDonald's french fries once a week?
They are so good.
Because of the beef tallow.
Because of that, oh!
And that smell of McDonald's, I love the fact that they, you can always, if you're in an elevator, somebody's got fries, you just, that smell, it's wonderful.
Oh my god.
I'm getting so hungry, it's not even funny.
I mean, it's not even funny.
It's just, I don't like to eat at night after I eat, you know, I don't do it.
But right now, I am so ravenous.
Today I was driving and I was picking Mrs. L up and there's a place here in New York called Hill Country.
It's not too far from the flat iron building, but anyway, Hill Country, I think it's the best and it's Texas barbecue.
They have the Creutz sausage.
But if somebody told me, you've got the last meal, you know, that kind of thing?
Beef ribs from this place?
Oh my god.
I mean, I I watch really, you know, Texas barbecue.
What's that?
Miss Goody or Tookie or Tootsie or whatever her name is.
White's Barbecue.
Anyway, And I look at this, and to me it's like porn.
I just...
Just beautiful.
That smoke...
Oh my god.
Worst way to eat meat in the world is barbecue.
Because of the carcinogenic.
Because of the nitrosamines.
I don't care!
There's something that just...
And when that...
When you smell that...
Oh my god.
I gotta stop.
You're killing me.
You're killing me.
Alright.
That's it.
I will talk to you...
Oh, Zauli dance?
I'm an expert in that.
I told Mrs. L, I want to learn how to do that.
You know how they have this ballroom dancing and we're going to go learn how to ballroom.
I want to do that Zauli, Zoli dance.
Have you seen that?
Ding, ding, ding, ding.
Where were your feet?
That's what I want to do.
To hell with that ballroom stuff.
Arthur Murray.
They still have an Arthur Murray here.
In any event, I'm yammering.
Have a great and glorious night.
Don't forget, make sure you...
Stay tuned to Lionel Nation and follow Mrs. L at Lin's Warriors.
All right, kids.
Have a great and glorious day.
See you tomorrow at 8 a.m.
But don't forget, the monkey's dead.
The show's over.
Sue you.
