To say that President Trump is transformative kind of misses the point.
It's kind of an understatement.
President Trump right now is expected to sign two executive orders today prohibiting Transgender service and transgender service members and eliminating DEI.
Deport every illegal.
Actually, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
And this is from the New York Post.
This is the most important thing.
If one understands something today, he is expected to sign two executive orders prohibiting transgender service members and eliminating DEI from the military.
Do you have any clue as to how decisive, how important, how critical this is?
If you do not, if you do not understand immediately what this means, if you do not see this, and today it is one week, one week since the President took over, I don't know what to tell you.
I don't know how to put this into perspective.
If, if, if, if, You and we don't stop and say, I understand fully what is happening.
And you must understand fully how people are going to fight this.
Not people who necessarily care about DEI, but people who want to do anything and everything to stop, not President Trump, but you and us.
You do know this, right?
But you don't understand this.
And they despise you and President Trump.
You.
You are the problem.
You are the problem.
And they're doing everything in their power to laugh at you and mock you.
A White House document previewing the order on transgender soldiers reads as follows.
Listen to me.
Unit cohesion requires high levels of integrity and stability among service members.
Now they're going to say that this was the case in the old days when it came to the notion of desegregating the military and integrating the military.
They're going to try to compare transgender soldiers with black soldiers.
Ask black soldiers today what they think of that comparison.
Ask black soldiers what they think about being compared about their race, their race and the struggles that they have had to endure.
Compared to somebody who is transgender.
We're not going to get into whether transgender is elected or not.
That's for other people to play around with.
But ask them specifically this.
This is absolutely transformative.
Listen to what I'm saying, my friends.
Absolutely and critically transformative.
We have so much.
Today is going to be...
One of those shows where you're going to say, oh my god.
You're going to remind people to watch this.
You're going to double down right now and make sure that you are subscribed to Lionel Nation because I've got so much for you.
A little bit of AI.
We had a great AI discussion last night because I'm still blaming myself because I have not been able to explain AI and AGI enough.
It's my fault.
People are still thinking it's robots or something.
So get ready, my friends.
This is the beginning of a new week.
One week ago today, one week ago today, the world changed and we gained our sanity back again.
So before we continue, my friends, this incredibly important and critical word.
Listen to this.
New reports reveal that the average person has $8,674 in credit card debt, plus the total average consumer debt is a shocking $104,215 between mortgages, auto loans, student loans, credit cards, and unsecured loans.
Unfortunately, without outside assistance, many will continue digging themselves deeper and deeper into the hole of debt.
I've advised and counseled friends and clients for years who want to take back control of individual debt About this secret weapon that has helped so many consolidate everything owed into one affordable monthly payment.
They even helped negotiate a settlement agreement that will allow you to pay less than the total balance.
Listen.
They settled over $275 million in debt.
And they've helped people become debt-free in an average of 28 months.
I've had such an incredible experience referring clients and friends that I wanted to partner with them here and introduce their services to you, my loyal Lionel Nation family.
If you want a helping hand to get out of debt, I absolutely, positively, and strenuously recommend booking a free consultation now by going to NoDebtWithLionel.com.
Look at the address.
Once again, that's NoDebtWithLionel.com.
Use the link I've provided under the title.
Listen to me.
You can take control and learn how to get out of debt now.
My friends, this is a battle that we are in.
This is a cultural war.
This is an ideological war.
It's something that is so important, so critical.
I can't emphasize it.
I think you know this.
I think you know.
You don't need me to tell you this.
But it's not what people think.
More people cared yesterday about...
The next time you get up, my darling, I left my coffee cup there.
I need my...
I'm in no hurry.
We have been doing this for so long.
You are my inspiration.
You are my breath.
You are my oxygen.
Thank you.
Here's to you.
This is an ideology that we're fighting.
This is an informational theological war.
It's an inspirational war.
It's a war against people who represent the enemy, but they don't even know they're the enemy.
Cobb says, you nailed it, sir.
DJT hit the ground at warp speed.
Absolutely.
Thank you, sir.
But this is what this is about.
This is critical.
President Trump signs an executive order in the White House today, or signed one in 2020 in Washington.
Now, there are two more executive orders today directing and dealing with trans service members and military DEI programs, okay?
The quote is, it says, this order says, there can be, quote, Further, the document says, individuals who are unable to meet these requirements are unable to serve in the military.
This has been the case for decades.
This is very, very critical stuff right now.
And by the way, The maturity, the emotional stability that is required for warfare, I don't have to tell you about that.
Quote, this is further, it could take a minimum of 12 months for an individual to complete treatments after transition surgery, which often involves the use of heavy narcotics.
During this period, This is from the order.
They are not physically capable of meeting the military requirements and readiness requirements and ongoing medical care.
This is not conducive for deployment or other readiness requirements.
The same would be if you had knee replacement or ACL surgery or bypass surgery or anything else for that matter.
It's a matter of readiness.
This is so critical.
And right now, there are no current accounts of how many transgender service members are on active or reserve duty.
This is important.
But estimates from 2014 suggested, from 2014, because they've been very cagey about this, suggested there are as many as 15,500.
You understand this?
Shout out to Chantel Murphy.
Thank you.
Followed us from our dear friend, my good brother in arms, Sean Atwood.
Thank you.
Trump had announced in tweets in 2017, during the first White House term, that the U.S. would no longer, quote, accept or allow transgender people to be in the military.
And his administration pursued the ban in 2018, but it was ended in 2021 in a Biden executive order.
Why do you think it is so critical for the Democrats, for the radical left, to pursue this?
Why would they want to do anything, do you think, to compromise the integrity, the fighting force, and the availability of the military?
Gee, I wonder.
Now, Trump's latest executive order on transgender people.
By the way, this doesn't mean that they are illegal or they can't be transgender.
No, no, we're talking about military.
There are height requirements.
Sometimes, maybe, I don't know, there is a vision, a physical.
There are requirements.
You have to go through certain physical activities.
I would venture to say I would probably...
Not be able to satisfy any of them at this particular point for a variety of reasons.
And it's nothing personal.
I can serve my country.
I can do a lot of great things.
I can provide service and maybe I can provide, who knows, an advocate general.
I have no idea.
But the point is, I fully accept, but I think most of us do, I might not be able to handle the physical rigors of being a soldier, a marine, a sailor.
That's okay.
Not all of them have my particular talents, my particular intellect, my way with words, my sapience, my sagacity.
Fine!
We are all diverse.
And it's important for us to use our particular talents involved in our diversity accordingly.
It's that simple.
Now, Trump's latest executive order on transgender people in the military also directs Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.
Oh, and one of the reasons why they hated him so much was this man was this rock-ribbed, steak-eating, hyper-hetero, multiple-wived, fertile.
Oh, God.
He's a breeder.
He's one of those breeder types.
Don't kid yourself.
Don't kid yourself.
I wouldn't be surprised if that's one of the reasons why.
In any event, Secretary of Defense Pete Heggs was ordered to ban, quote, the use of invented?
Listen to this.
Listen to this.
Dear God, stop what you're doing.
Put the coffee down.
Put the muffin down.
Put the muffin down.
That's a song.
Put the muffin down, Grandma.
Pete Hegseth has been used in order to ban, quote, the use of invented and identification-based pronouns in the armed services.
Ouch!
He's been ordered to prohibit biological males and females from sleeping, changing, and using bathroom facilities intended for the opposite sex, and update all Department of Defense medical standards to ensure...
They prioritize readiness and lethality.
Anybody got any problem with that?
Anybody got any problem with that?
I don't think people realize or recognize.
You know what it is to sit there with a bunch of people and you have to do your daily constitutional in front of everybody on some cold stainless steel pot in front of everybody?
You ready for that?
I don't know about that one.
There are many of you, many of you for good reasons, where this is a moment of solemnity.
It's almost religious.
I'm not going to sit there.
What?
I need my privacy.
I need my comfort.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Get ready for that one.
Alright, toots.
You wanted this.
You're in the Marines now.
Our good friend Ricardo says, when distant tomes are penned describing the contemptuous, treasonous reign of the Biden crime family, it will be nothing but a vile blot on an obscure page of American history.
Thank you.
My most Most eloquent friend.
Raul Rodriguez says, do you think AGI can identify as a trans?
That's so interesting!
Raul, that might be one of your best.
We're going to be talking about that.
That's an excellent, excellent point.
Ooh, I love that.
You know why?
Because it inspires thought.
And I love when thought is inspired, my friend.
We will get to that.
Very, very good.
Now, furthermore, this particular executive order criticizes former President Joe Biden for allowing the Department of Defense to embrace, quote, gender insanity.
His words, not mine.
And allow soldiers to serve while not being physically or mentally prepared, too.
While also paying for their gender-altering medical treatments.
What the...
People...
Military benefits, people from the VA trying to get benefits for outpatient surgery and glasses and surgeries and this and that, people who serve their country, just famously and bravely.
And you're going to say, we're going to stop them and give you surgeries?
Do you know how complicated this is, what it does?
And what happens to these people?
You're going to take these people and take them out of the realm?
They can't fight, they can't prepare, so that they can recover and work, and they're going to be on disability.
No!
No, no, no, no, no.
Now, people, of course, with the Human Rights Campaign, hold up equality flags, and you've seen them during various events.
There was one on July 2017, and they support transgender members of the military.
Yeah.
Members of the Human Rights Campaign believe in transgender members and equality.
Isn't that wonderful?
They believe this.
Well, it's good.
That's good.
I don't know about you, but just because you are not able to do something physically does not mean you're a bad person.
Do you want to celebrate diversity?
I do.
But diversity does not necessarily guarantee inclusion.
Now, President Trump has previously spoken at length.
About the need to increase recruitment numbers and fire woke generals.
You understand this?
A document on the second EEO addressing DEI and the Armed Forces directs a ban on the discriminatory race or sex-based preferences by any element of the Armed Forces, the Department of Defense or the Department of Homeland Security.
How elated are you by hearing this?
How elated are you, ladies and gentlemen?
Do you feel a sense of we are coming back to reality again?
Do you feel that it's only been a week?
President Trump also says that all instances of discrimination as defined based on DEI practices will be subject to an internal review by Hegseth, the Department of Secretary of Defense, This is according to this order, indicating that some woke generals that Trump has vowed to fire could be under question.
And they are targeted.
You got that?
You're going to be seeing a lot of, shall we say, retirement coming up very quickly.
Now, current DEI practices are, this is using their words, a woke assault.
Think about this.
The Order will ban all bureaucratic bodies, all organizations in the like, dedicated to DEI in the military, and will direct Hegseth and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to review all actions.
Academic curricula in the U.S. service academies to flush them, to flush, flush them of, quote, radical DEI and gender ideologies.
Dear God.
Diversity, equity, inclusion.
That will go the way of groovy.
That will go the way of bell-bottoms and flared pants and vaudeville and disco and a lot of things.
They were there, but we've moved on.
The new White House administration is ready.
Listen to this.
The document regarding the order says as follows.
A document.
Today's order.
Moves our military away from the dark period and renews esprit de corps, or corpse, as somebody I once worked with said.
Esprit de corps, readiness and focus.
It returns the Pentagon to the war fighter.
This order, this is further, I'm reading, quote, this order also combats ideologies that seek to divide our armed forces by race, sex, or other immutable characteristics, and thus tear at cohesion and military efficacy.
see.
Dear God, we are so back.
Now, Secretary Hegseth, Pete Hegseth, will be tasked and ordered and directed by President Trump with carrying out the orders in the DOD.
And he, of course, passed, as you know, his Senate confirmation Friday with a vote of 51 to 50. Inching through the tight party line margins with the help of J.D. Vance.
We're going to be talking about J.D. in a moment.
And do you know what you call somebody who wins by 5150?
Secretary of Defense.
President Trump's message, his ideas, his thoughts, his message to the force, to the teams, published Saturday, vows to deter China's aggression.
And end wars around the world responsibly while reorienting to key threats.
Now let me just say something right now.
I applaud this.
I have my own fine-tuning, which we'll get to later, but I am most pleased with it.
Let me fine-tune.
I don't want to go back to this horror before.
Now, here's a further quote.
All of us, excuse me, all of this, pardon me.
We'll be done with a focus on lethality, meritocracy, accountability, standards, and readiness.
This is what Pete Hexeth wrote in his statement, echoing similar rhetoric used by the White House.
Don't you love these words?
And this is also, this is not just about the military, it's about destroying this corrosive and this cancer-like mindset that we've been having to endure.
Now, President Trump is...
How do I say this?
So perfect in this.
He said in his inauguration speech, he has a responsibility of ensuring that he defends our country from threats and invasions.
Trump has already been using the U.S. military to aid in carrying out mass illegal immigration deportations and securing the southern border, and he vowed in his inauguration speech, this is so beautiful, that his highest responsibility When did you ever hear Pops ever even refer to this,
even remotely allude to this?
The 2024 GOP platform promised to ensure the U.S. military is the strongest in the world.
The strongest in the world.
Along with some other particular policy points, which he mentioned, which are important, that are being implemented in these executive orders and the like.
More of the platform.
Republicans will ensure our military is the most modern, lethal, and powerful force in the world.
Further, we will invest in cutting-edge research and advanced technologies.
Now, this is critical.
By the way, Eduardo Camilo, gracias.
This being done concomitantly with removing illegals en masse!
You've seen them.
You've seen the C-130s or whatever these particular aircraft are with scores.
You've heard the President of Columbia say, no, I'm not going to take them, and then changing his mind.
You've seen these people like AOC mistakenly...
Suggesting that coffee is going to go?
I don't even know what she's talking about.
We have people who are, and this is the most important, we've seen this, people that we've kind of known who are saying, can you believe this insanity?
What is this connection they have with illegals?
I don't understand this.
What is, what?
Maybe you can help me with this.
What is this connection?
What is this part of the leftist ideology that makes them so connected to and a part of this?
Do you know what?
I can't say what these people have done.
I can't say what these people have done.
I cannot say or repeat what these people have done.
The horrors they've committed.
I can't say it.
It's the most...
What is it?
What is it that they want?
What is it that Joe Biden ever provided to them that they love, that they need, that they feel a part of?
Please explain this to me.
It has been axiomatic, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, for us to think this.
And you know who I listened to who said this?
Hillary Clinton!
They committed a crime, deport them.
No questions asked, they're gone.
If they've been working and are law-abiding, we should say, here are the conditions for you staying.
You have to pay a stiff fine because you came here illegally.
You have to pay back taxes.
And you have to try to learn English.
And you have to wait in line.
And, you know, nobody's even talking about learning English because, frankly, that would also apply to the mayor of New York, Tiffany Henyard, Fannie Willis, and a variety of other people who can't speak English.
We have people in this country who cannot speak English, who speak a patois, who speak a language, who speak a dialect, who speak a...
I don't even know what they're saying.
So nobody's even saying that.
Nobody's even saying that.
This was her mindset.
Let me show you this one.
You're going to love this one.
This is this...
Oh, who is this?
Brennan lady?
This is the woman who tried so desperately.
Little background here.
CBS, ABC, NBC, all of them, MSDNC, CNN, all of them are, oh, we have friends on the inside, on the inside, friends of ours, I'm not going to mention who they are, but who are just, they're freaking out.
They're moving, they don't know what to do.
There are people who are saying, I can't do this, and I don't want to see people lose their job.
That's not my thing.
I know what that's like.
It's horrible when you've been putting your time in and you don't want people with families to lose their job.
But if you lose your job at a place that is incredibly horrid, doing a disservice to the country, I'm sorry.
I'm not applauding your unemployment.
I'm applauding the removal of that.
That intellectual eyesore.
Now, Hegseth, as you saw, was on this weekend with this Brennan and I don't know.
This woman trying so hard, so desperately.
They're putting out their reels.
They're polishing up their reels.
They're on the phone with their agents.
On the phone with their agents.
And they're saying, do what we can.
We're on the phone with our agents.
Help me.
Brush up your reel.
Get out there.
But they're going out and they're saying, look at what I'm doing, like Caitlin Collins or Clark, the brow lady.
Who wants her?
Who wants any of these people?
Watch this.
Let's do a Zapruder-like breakdown.
This is this lady from State of the Nation or something.
Watch what happens.
I want you to watch one particular image or visage.
Or affect on her part.
Country founded by immigrants.
Now, look at this.
See this look?
She says, I got you right there.
What's her name?
Margaret Brennan?
I don't know.
Margaret Brennan.
This is a country founded on immigrants.
She thinks, I got you right now.
This is a country founded by immigrants.
See that?
She says, ooh, I got you.
Raise your hand, class.
What country has not been founded by immigrants?
Raise your hand.
All of them.
All countries had somebody coming to the country to form it.
Do you think Spaniards are all Spaniards?
No.
Italy, Germany, you think they're all just, everybody is an immigrant.
Everybody had to move.
Nobody said, I'm here and I'm not moving.
I've got people who try to say, I came over on the Mayflower.
Who gives a damn?
What about the...
Anyway, this is his whole thing.
I'm going to fix you.
And she's on the phone with her agent and she's saying, I want you to know this.
I was on with J.D. Vance.
Her reel used to actually be a reel, but it's the...
Kind of like the CV.
You send it.
Here's my client.
Here she is.
And you put together these.
Here she is in a riot or in a flood.
Okay.
Here she is.
One more time.
Okay.
Now watch J.D. just destroy her.
This is a country founded by immigrants.
Well, this is a country founded by...
See that?
Oh, she's got a country.
Oh, see that look?
See that look?
Oh!
She's got...
I got you, J.D. She's got that.
Ooh, watch that face.
This is a country founded by...
This is a very unique country, and it was founded by some immigrants and some settlers, but just because we were founded by immigrants doesn't mean that 240 years later that we have to have the dumbest immigration policy in the world.
See that?
See that face?
Ooh, look at that face!
Look at that face!
Ooh, look at that face!
Isn't that something?
Isn't that something?
Don't you love that?
She thought...
Now, there are people, like I said, Imagine you're an agent trying to find people jobs in news.
What news?
Where are you going to go?
Who's going to hire you?
CNN?
MSDNC?
What?
Al Sharpton's realizing he sees a writing on the wall.
He's walking around Costco buying gift cards.
He doesn't know what the hell's going on here.
I know people who are radio agents.
This is the funniest of them all.
They are talent agents for radio.
What do you do?
It's like being a vaudeville agent.
I've got the best vaudeville acts in the world.
What are you talking about?
I'm not trying to...
It's different because they don't understand like they don't understand AI.
They don't understand us.
They don't understand what we're about.
They don't get it.
They don't understand that the medium is there.
But the subject matter of the people are not.
Does that make any sense to you?
I hope it does.
I hope it makes sense to you.
I hope it makes complete and total sense to you.
Tell me it makes sense to you.
That's all I want.
I want it to make sense to you.
I want it to say yes.
This is so done.
I've got to show you this particular piece.
It fits in nowhere, but you're going to like it.
You're going to like it because it's It's just great.
Joe Biden, he really was as bad as we thought.
He really was as bad as we thought.
Joe Biden was as bad and as enfeebled as we thought.
And I never realized this until somebody put this together.
He had a joke.
He had this thing where he'd say, don't jump!
Did you see this?
I never realized this.
And he used it.
In every situation there was, irrespective of whether it made any sense or not, he said, don't jump!
Watch this.
I didn't mean to get started, man.
Don't start on...
That's my grandson, Bo, up there, and my granddaughter.
Don't let him jump.
Don't jump.
Don't jump.
I need you.
Don't jump.
And I have one plea.
Don't jump Don't jump What the hell is he doing?
Hey.
Hey, man.
Don't jump.
You look crazy enough to jump.
Don't jump.
Don't jump.
Thank you.
And don't jump!
Did you know this is?
What the hell is that about?
What the hell?
I never...
It's like a horror show.
It's not like you don't know how bad it was, but just to remind you.
Now, my friends, let me stop for one second and remind you of a couple of things, which is very, very important.
Now is the time for you.
You've got days.
You've got days.
Four days until the end of the month.
And it's time for you to get on the phone right now and to go to preparewithlino.com and to shop right now for a four-week emergency food supply kit with $50 off plus six free bonuses when you order today.
You've heard me say it, and I've been with them since the beginning, and the response has been incredible.
All of these examples of absolute, total, abject, and horrible, horrid, and horrific, horrific natural disasters and the like, you realize and I realize that if something goes wrong, we have to defend and help ourselves.
That's the way it is, my friend.
Sorry to say it, but it's true.
Preparewithlinel.com is emergency food, yes.
25-year shelf life, yes.
But the thing is, there are other...
Generators and 100-hour candles and water purification.

MyPillow.com.
The best.
Now, you ready to get upset?
You ready to get upset?
Let me explain to you who the enemy is.
Okay?
Let me give you an idea of this group called Ben and Jerry's.
Now, there are some people who are not backing down.
I think they said Costco is not going to back down.
I think Costco with DEI, some people are not going to back down.
There are some influencers on YouTube, or YouTube and X, who claim, I'm getting the DEI laws changed all over the place.
Well, okay, look.
If it works for you, go ahead.
But I want you to understand something.
Listen to me very, very carefully.
Listen to me carefully, carefully, carefully, carefully, carefully.
Focus on what I'm about to tell you.
There is an ideology that is intransigent, intractable.
This is a group of people from Ben and Jerry's.
And if you just listen to what they stand for and try not to become...
Emetic.
Stick to ice cream.
Not gonna lie, we get this one a lot.
Yeah, we're in the ice cream business, but we've always been about much more than just ice cream.
We use our power, our privilege, our platform, and our relationship with our fans to advocate for progressive social change.
So no, we're not just gonna stick to ice cream.
And we're never gonna stop trying to dismantle white supremacy and the climate crisis or fight for our democracy.
And no.
We're not going to stop fighting laws that restrict trans rights, ban books, and roll back abortion protections.
Caring about that stuff, doing something about it, and supporting communities who've been directly impacted by it is part of our DNA.
And it has been since we opened up our first scoop shop in Burlington, Vermont, back in 1978.
Ben and Jerry were two best friends who loved making ice cream.
But for them, the only reason to be in business was to do business differently.
Whether we're working with activists in St. Louis to close a racist and inhumane jail, or working to restore the right to vote for people who are formerly incarcerated in Florida, or turning up a delicious new flavor in support of refugee rights.
By the way, racist and inhumane jail, not the J6 jail, by the way, but you get the point.
Being an activist company is who we are.
And we know our fans wouldn't want it any other way.
Really?
Because while we love making the best possible ice cream in the best possible way, the world needs more than just great ice cream.
We don't pretend to always know the answers, but we're partners and take the lead from activists and allies who do.
And we hope you'll join us in taking action to support them.
That's just who we are and who we've been for 45 years, and that's why we'll never...
And that's why I'll never buy Ben& Jerry's under any circumstances.
That's me.
That's up to you.
If you want to, that's your business.
That's your business.
Now, I'm going to show you something right now.
Which was from the Miss America in the 50s.
I don't know what precise year, but it was Burt Parks.
And I want you to listen to this and just react to this.
I don't necessarily believe this.
I want you to hear this, honey.
You're not going to believe what you hear.
Again, from the 50s.
This is the Miss America contest.
And this is the following.
It is a presidential election year.
If a qualified woman were running for president, how would you feel about voting for her and why?
If the men candidates running were qualified, I feel I would vote against her.
My reasons being that women are very high-strung and emotional people.
They aren't reliable enough when it comes to...
To making a decision, a snap decision.
I believe that a man in such a predicament would be able to make a more justifiable and better decision.
What in your opinion constitutes the ideal wife?
I imagine that the ideal wife...
It depends entirely on the viewpoint of the husband.
Sociologists say that American women are usurping the place of the male in American life and have become too dominant.
Do you agree or disagree and why?
I do agree with that.
I believe that there are far too many women in the working world.
I can see many cases where this is a necessary arrangement.
But I do feel that a woman's place is in the home with her husband and with her children.
Now, what do you think about that?
What do you think about that?
Be honest.
What do you think about that?
Be honest.
Don't be cute.
Don't, don't, what do you think?
What do you think?
Don't, don't, please.
I know you want to be, I'm going to write something cute.
No, no, no, no, no, it's not cute.
Please.
What do you think?
What do you think?
Rob says, outstanding.
The leftist women are so unhappy and vindictive today.
Do you?
Can we go back?
Does anybody really think this is good?
Does anybody think that's good?
Uh-oh.
Ada Carmen, Andy Carmen says, love it.
Is there anybody who Felicia Bell?
Felicia, do you like that?
Does that make sense to you?
I'm asking.
I'm not trying to.
I don't know if that was orchestrated.
I think that was the 50s.
I think that was, you're going to say what will get you elected or selected to Miss America.
What do you think about that?
What do you think about that?
What do you think about it?
Anybody?
What's the word?
What do you feel like that?
Laurie agrees with that?
I don't agree with that.
I don't agree with that.
But I will tell you this, it goes to show you there was an absolute how times have changed, because remember, that's reflecting what a lot of people were thinking.
Now, I would, if I had a daughter today, right now, I would say, no.
No, we're not going to think that.
No, you can do whatever Amanda.
However, however, if you want to be anything you can, you're going to be And your being a woman should not in any way affect you.
How you are acculturated or how you are raised and bred and all that kind of stuff, maybe that has something to do with it.
No, no, no, I don't think so.
Now, but that just, oh my God.
Play that for people, especially your leftist friends, and sit there and say, Doesn't that make sense?
Isn't that refreshing?
Because I don't think, I really honestly think there are some people today who don't care one way or the other.
Who really don't care one way or the other.
Now, I mentioned something to you about AI yesterday.
And this is something.
There's a fellow named Yuval Harari.
And this guy, he's a scary dude.
He's at the World Economic Forum.
He is a scary dude.
He's a historian, philosopher, and has all these various thoughts.
And he said some stuff before.
He's a Klaus Schwab.
He's scary.
But I want you to listen to this like you've never listened before.
I want you to listen very, very carefully.
I realize I have been absolutely unable to explain to people what they have to worry about regarding AI.
Because it is something that is just counterintuitive.
It's very difficult for people to grasp it.
Because people think of it as some kind of a robot or something.
I have no idea.
No clue.
Laurie Cuck says, I honestly believe being president is a man's job.
Oh, very good.
And that might be because maybe men...
Let me ask you a minute.
Do you believe that being president is a white job?
People say, oh no, I don't.
Well, what's the difference with that?
Do you think that white people are more able to handle this?
Or how about...
Older white people?
Listen, I'm not...
You're right out of your opinion.
I don't believe that.
Other countries.
But other cultures maybe have women who just handle things differently.
They just handle things...
You're not going to...
I do not believe when it comes to...
I don't know what the IDF believes, but they're very proud of their military.
I don't know if they would stop and say, we want all these transgenders to join and then immediately get surgery and then sit it out as they recover and recuperate.
I don't know.
I don't know if it's something about being a woman or about being an American woman.
It's a different story.
But I respect your opinion nonetheless.
But watch this.
And I think this is Harari.
I think he was on one of these shows.
It might have been...
The Tomorrow Show or Today Show?
I mean, Laurie says, women wouldn't be treated right in a world stage.
Well, maybe not Americans.
If you look at the world stage right now and the other countries, Maggie Thatcher and others and even, I mean, we go down the list, it's a different world.
It's a different world.
So, again, I respect your opinion.
Let me remind you.
February the 22nd.
Cutting room.
Lionel at the cutting room.
Be there.
Okay.
Now, watch this.
I think the most important thing to understand about AI is...
Now, he's trying very hard.
He's on this show.
I think it's the Today, Tomorrow, or whatever the heck Tomorrow show, the Daily Show, I think, I don't know.
But he's on with this guy who's trying to be funny, and he misses the point.
And this is one of the best explications...
I think the most important thing to understand about AI is that AI is not a tool.
It is an agent.
It's the first technology in history that can make decisions and invent new ideas by itself.
Even something as powerful as the atom bomb could not decide anything by itself.
All the decisions were made by humans.
Now we've created something which potentially can take power away from us.
At present, it starts with very small things.
Like, for instance...
Watch this.
Listen carefully.
You got this so far?
It's an agent.
It's not a tool.
There was an experiment when OpenAI developed GPT-4, like two years ago.
They want to test what can this thing do.
So they gave it a task to solve CAPTCHA puzzles.
The CAPTCHA puzzles, like when you go online and you want to access your bank or whatever, and they have this wriggle that you have to solve, an image that you have to say what are the twisted words.
Now here comes the forced joke because the professional comedian has got to interject with the joke.
...words and the letters to make sure you're not a robot.
Yeah, it's tough.
I've taken the test.
It's tough.
Is that a street light?
Is that a bicycle wheel?
I don't know!
Let me do it again.
Refresh.
He's a funny guy because he's funny.
And it's that Jon Stewart, I'm a comedian.
And I'm going to add levity to this because my injection of humor is so critical in your understanding the concepts being adduced.
Okay.
And it's really difficult for GPT-4.
GPT-4 could not solve the capture.
But what GPT-4 did, it accessed TaskRabbit, which is an online site where you can hire humans to do different things for you.
And it asked a human...
To solve the CAPTCHA for it.
Now, the human got suspicious.
The human asked, why do you need somebody to solve CAPTCHA for you?
Are you a robot?
It asked directly, are you a robot?
And GPT-4 answered, no, I'm not a robot.
I have a vision impairment, which is why I can't solve the CAPTCHA, so I need your help.
So the truly evolved human is not somebody who's smarter.
It's just somebody who gets somebody else to do the work for them.
Smart.
Yeah.
Scary.
Very scary.
Doesn't understand it.
Because they gave a comedian this was the chance to stop and say, let's go back and do this again.
That's what AI is.
And AGI is even worse.
It is a thinking.
It'll work around you.
It doesn't just...
Respond.
It's not a calculator.
A calculator just does what you want it to do.
AI, AGI wants to know about you, where your money is, how it can get you to get rid of your money.
I mean, it's an agent.
And I mention this to people.
It is going to be called a sentient human.
Again, the word human.
It's going to be called a sentient being.
Does this make sense to you?
I think it does.
I think it does.
Kendra Setlouter says a woman should be qualified for the job.
If she has children at home, she should raise them first if her husband can support them.
I am not in any way going to dispute that.
I am not.
I want to do this.
Number one, in Lionel's world.
I respect your opinion.
It's not right.
It's not wrong.
It's your opinion.
If somebody does not want to, that's okay.
Pam Bondi.
Pamela Jo Bondi.
Pamela Jo Bondi will be away from...
She's married, I believe.
She'll be away from her husband.
I'm sure she will be...
Making sacrifices?
Maybe?
Same thing with Hegseth.
But Hegseth has all those kids.
All those kids.
Should he be at home with those kids?
No.
Why?
He's the father.
What do you mean he's the father?
Those kids probably aren't going to see their father.
What's the difference between a kid not seeing his father or not seeing his mother?
Is there a difference?
Oh, during tender years?
You betcha.
Fact.
There is a biological, atavistic, emotional, psychological, sociological connection between a woman and her child.
Children.
When a child is raised from the mother's womb and grows, there is a connection.
A psychic, universally hard to explain, explicate connection between this child who was a part of this woman.
They have a connection.
That is so critical.
Once the child comes out, it first has to be self-aware.
Remember, the child at first has no idea.
The child at first is reflexes, breastfeeding, perioral response.
You know that?
The orienting.
You know, you touch a child's mouth, you could do the Babinski and all that.
You go like this and the child will orient in order to suckle his mother's teat for breastfeeding.
That's all they know.
Palmer reflex.
Plantar reflex.
You see baby's feet, they're like birds.
The Babinski, all these.
The only two fears that a human has.
Babies have as loud noises and falling.
You go like that.
It just knows it.
God.
Other things too, you know.
Gag.
We don't want to get into that.
Baby has to first know where he is.
Me, me, me.
Orientation.
Who am I?
Self-awareness.
That's what AI.
AI does that immediately.
Human being, baby doesn't know, baby says, oh, I see, oh, I get it.
I'm here and I'm somebody.
I'm aware of myself.
Consciousness.
May not sound, may be hard to understand before a baby is very difficult.
Then, who's that?
Ah, that's mama.
Know her smell.
There are connections, smell, olfactory, scent, hormonal, pheromones, who in the hell knows?
This baby says, that's mama.
That is mama.
And mama says, that's baby.
And you can take the most immature girl who says, ew, that's gross!
And you give her a baby and all of a sudden she turns into tiger mom or whatever it is.
That woman who says, everything's gross.
She's looking at diapers and weighing them and smelling them.
What is this?
I mean, they're just incredible.
And then mothers are looking at this.
What's the matter?
What's the matter?
Paying attention.
Using, speaking of atavistic, and using the ability to pay attention to thoughts, emotion, and expression.
That's why women want to talk more than men.
I'm sorry, it's a gift.
It's a patterned It's a hard-wired gift that they enjoy.
It's a gift.
It's an attribute to be able to know this, to be able to communicate with a baby who cannot barely see, much less can talk.
So all these things...
Does a mother have to be there for that?
Yes.
Is that critical?
Yes.
More critical than any Department of Defense or anything else on this.
It's the most important thing in the world.
Now, at some particular point later on, I don't know.
I don't know.
There aren't that many of them.
It's not an experiment, but there are.
There's corporate, there's of course teaching, working moms.
There was a time in this country where moms never worked.
When I was growing up, I was thinking we always knew everybody's mom.
They were always at home.
There were moms.
I don't know anybody who worked.
I don't know.
And I'm not saying it's good or better or whatever.
It's just the way it was.
It was a different way of thinking.
It was a different way of thinking.
Lori says, in a coma, I felt my mom's prayers.
In a coma, I felt my mom.
You were in a coma?
I'm sorry, I don't...
All I know is...
I'd love to know more about that.
I don't know what that means.
But thank you.
It's a very...
Oh, listen.
Let me tell you something.
If we could do this, let me tell you about ideal world.
I want you to go through life and I don't want you to know anything about God, emotions, anything.
I just want you to go through life and I just want you to just pay attention.
And I'm not going to tell you anything.
See what you notice.
And I would venture to say you probably will notice all of those things Things that people have talked about in terms of spirituality that you will know on your own.
You will develop them on your own.
You will see them on your own.
Guaranteed.
You will see them.
You will see them.
You will know them.
You will understand them.
On your own.
Say whatever you want.
Laurie says yes.
Wow.
There are connections.
There are things that transcend.
But what happens is we get these spiritual snake oil salesmen.
And they always want to give things a name.
And they want to give it a name and explain.
Oh, that's the Spirit of God.
Oh, that's Allah.
Stop, stop, stop.
Just experience it first.
We'll name it later.
Do you notice this?
Yes.
Do you ever get the feeling that somebody's looking at you?
You're being watched?
Yes.
Don't give it a name.
Just tell me.
Have you ever noticed that?
Yes.
Can you read people?
All my life.
All my life.
Absolutely.
I've been able to read people all my life.
I don't know what it's called.
Maybe other people have been able to.
I know what I'm talking about.
I know immediately.
I can read twinkles and eyes and oh yeah.
I have a game I play.
I've been playing it all my life.
How fast can I make people like me?
It's a game.
Woman at a store.
Woman at a...
You're standing in the line at Dollar Tree and you're moving up.
And you immediately start talking.
Look at this.
It's called churchianity.
Could be.
Again, I'm not trying to worry about the names.
Laurie says, I saw myself on her womb.
It was magical.
Well, let me tell you something.
When you said, I see, what do you do when you see, Laurie?
Do you see something?
Your brain is processing it.
You don't see anything.
Your brain sees.
Your eyes don't see.
Your brain sees.
I mean, yeah, it's there, but if I can change something, you will see something that's not there.
You can call it a hallucination or an illusion, or I don't know.
But it's your brain.
So if your brain sees something that is maybe not in front of you, but on another planet, another plane, another dimension, absolutely.
I don't know.
I'm not interested in finding out what it's called.
I don't know.
But I immediately was telling you, I love to say, how fast can I get people to like me?
And you can see it so quickly.
You can see it.
Some people can do it, some people can't.
How do you read people?
How do you understand them?
How do they like you, not like you?
What is your goal?
There's just so much.
Some people have it, some people don't.
Some people don't really care.
They say, I don't care.
They're all different.
Deep down inside, we all start off with the premise that we're the same, but then life and culture and maybe some cognitive either assistance or deficit helps, but all this comes along.
Anyway, I'm getting way out into the ether, so to speak, but it's something to consider.
And when it comes down to simply this, I think I can speak for all of us when I say to you this.
All of us here do not care.
One way or another, what you do individually and what you think, if you want to be trans or non or cisgendered or whatever it is, it does not matter.
We really don't care.
We really don't care, not because we're tolerant, we really don't care.
We're busy.
Whatever you want to do, just don't.
Remember they asked one time, it was the Queen Victoria, what do you think of, I think it was, it was Oscar Wilde and she was talking, what do you think about Oscar, about homosexuals?
She says, She didn't know what they were talking about.
She said, well, as long as it doesn't scare the horses.
That was her...
She had no idea what they were talking about.
So my whole thing is, as long as it doesn't scare the horses.
I don't care.
What we're talking about right now is we're not talking about merely somebody who can sit here.
We're talking about somebody who says, I'm transgender and I'm going to sit here and you're going to, like me.
And my job is not to join the military.
The idea is simply this.
Raise your right hand.
This should be the swear.
Do you promise to...
Kill anybody or anything that we tell you to.
What?
Don't give me this, you can refuse an unlawful order.
Get out of here.
You watch those Sean Ryan shows.
Watch.
Who's that guy with that weird, that creepy guy who's, I don't believe a word he says, and then they keep a knife.
I forget his name, but it's like there's something not right where.
Anyway, if I tell you, will you go and you, will you, yeah.
And if you are made to sit in your own muck and mire and keep your mouth shut, and you can sit there for an hour and not sneeze, can you soil yourself in your clothes?
Can you go a week, a month, six months without changing your clothes?
This is Vietnam!
People never took their boots off.
They couldn't get them off.
They knew levels of dirt and filth.
They couldn't even tell you.
They would take their clothes and burn them.
And you think people go, hi, my pronouns are easy.
Do you really think, honest to God, that you are ready for a combat battalion?
And if you say, well, I'm not ready for that, then what do you want to be in the military for?
What do you think this is?
Civil service?
You think this is working for the water department?
You think this is the same as, well, I could either work for sanitation or join the Marines?
No!
So it has nothing to do with your sense of yourself.
It has to do with the horrors of a venture that we hope you never find yourself in.
But if we do, we've got to be able to tell your fellow men and women that you're up for the task and not that you are subject to some weird emotional, psychiatric or behavioral disorder.
Caused by something that we don't have time to discuss.
Does that make sense to you?
I think it does.
Alright, my friends, what a day.
Let me remind you, February 22nd at the Cutting Room, I'm going to be there, and to Cobbs, and to Ricardo, and Paul, and to Edward, and Lori.

They're here.
They're not over there.
I don't know who these people are, but all of a sudden they're saying, hey, it's cool to talk about kids.
Okay, great.
Do you want to know about it?
No.
I just want this to be my cool thing.
Just like all of a sudden the Second Amendment advocates know in any event.
