I'm not sure.
Whenever we catch somebody from the...
I'm going to use the word elite because people use it, but I don't think there's anything elite about them.
But whenever we catch people who forget where they are, like Selena Gomez, who forgets the...
The actual rules, like Selena Gomez, who puts on this narcissistic crocodile-tier virtue-signaling con, like Selena Gomez, and then is called out immediately, like Selena Gomez.
There's something about it that is so beautiful, so, so perfect.
I love it.
I love it because I despise these people.
Selena Gomez, this, I don't know what you want to call it, this self-entitled, self-appointed savior of the undocumented Selena Gomez has once again,
once again, my friends, reminded us that Holly Weird and these radical left woke Demented folks are part of a breeding ground.
A breeding ground, an insane asylum for virtue signaling and, I guess, performative activism or performative histrionics or feigned concern.
It's let me pick up this phone.
And I'm going to be an actress.
I'm going to just do this because I'm Selena Gomez.
I don't have to worry about how things look.
By virtue of who I am, I just do stuff.
And I'm going to take one of the worst situations that we are going through right now.
And by the way, let me remind you.
Involving a subject matter that got this president unanimously elected in a landslide where people do not disagree with our president.
I'm going to take this opportunity, this opportunity to put together some stupid cockamamie video.
Because her people immediately told her, take it down now!
What are you doing?
And she's like, what are you talking about?
No, you're a schmuck!
What are you doing?
You don't even know.
You're saying, I don't know what to do.
You allegedly have a billion three.
They say she's worth...
$1.3 billion.
I don't believe a word of it.
I don't believe the Kardashians are worth a billion.
This billion.
Ringo Starr is not even a billionaire, for God's sake.
What do you think?
A billion?
Taylor Swift?
I don't believe it.
I think they use kind of a well perspective, but it doesn't matter.
Instead of her saying, I want to help people, she wants to sit with her nails.
Her polish and manicured nails, looking, crying, I don't know what to do.
And then they said, what are you doing?
Now, I don't care.
Somebody somewhere is going to say, I don't know who she is.
I don't care who she is.
That's not the point.
It's not...
Whether you or I...
She's on the show, the murders and the whatever...
Steve Martin, okay.
She's a 32-year-old baby who doesn't understand what is going on.
Get ready, my friends, for what we're about to show you.
Get ready for what you're about to see.
Get ready.
Get ready for something that is going to blow your...
Through my analysis and the like.
And you better make sure you are subscribed to Lionel Nation, and you better subscribe to that newsletter email news, because one went out today and it was a beaut.
But before we get started this, listen to this.
New reports reveal that the average person has $8,674 in credit card debt, 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.
There are people, my friends, who used to be in show business who cared very much about what their image conveyed and connoted.
Very, very careful.
Not anymore.
They don't understand it, and whenever they don't understand it, I absolutely love it.
In a tearful Instagram video that can only be described as a masterclass in narcissism, this 32-year-old baby wept,
lacrimated, waxed lacrimose, Sobbed uncontrollably in this tear, this cascade of histrionics.
Oh my God!
Sobbed to the point she couldn't breathe about the deportation of, as they call it, undocumented immigrants.
We call them illegal aliens.
These people, under President Trump's leadership, as he made good on his promise, she said, weeping through a veil of tears for the virgin birth, I believe in Father Christmas, she says, I'm so sorry.
She sniffled her way to her 422 million followers.
Quote, I wish I could do Something, but I can't.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to do.
I'll try everything.
Well, maybe.
Cue the violence, the collective eye rolls, and the entirely predictable social media backlash.
Ladies and gentlemen, let me show you what this is.
Let me...
Let me see this.
In case you haven't seen this, ladies and gentlemen, I give you, and this is no longer available, I give you Selena Gomez.
I just want to say that I'm so sorry.
How many people are getting attacked?
The children.
They don't understand.
They're so sorry.
I wish I could do something, but I can't.
I don't know what to do.
I'll try everything, I promise.
I'll try everything, I promise.
I think the great, the inimitable, the ineffable, the dead mother herself, Liz Solak, said, O. M. Lizzie could not have said it myself.
Rick Rohr says three laughings.
Max Payne has a series of laughings.
Zach has some laughings and a poop emoji at the end.
It's incredible.
Liz says get a life.
Where's the American flag, Missy?
Three.
Mika Copra gives us three of these.
Bethany Ness says F. Just F. Just F. Creamy Empress, three hysterics.
Greg says, that's odd.
That's odd.
That's odd.
Moo-woo, moo-woo-woo from Rick Rohr, ladies and gentlemen.
Four screaming hysterical emojis.
Do something, LOL.
From Katie.
She's worth $1.3 billion.
She could house many of them.
What about the grapes?
I have no idea what that means.
Pure Narcissism from Matt W. My favorite.
What is she crying about?
Thank you so much.
Whoa.
Wah.
and Let's not let us back with an LOL.
Put your money where your mouth is.
And this is the reaction so far.
You know what our good friend, the great, the inimitable, the ineffable Tom Homan said?
A video that has been going viral over the past hour or so.
We're still working to clear it and show it.
In fact, the Hollywood celebrity who posted it has now deleted it.
I think because probably she faced a lot of backlash for it, noting even the New York Times and Fox News polls show that a majority of American respondents are in favor of deportations of criminals and gang members.
She posted a video sobbing.
She was crying in it.
She said, all my people are getting attacked.
With the picture of a Mexican flag.
Again, she has now taken that down.
But what do you say to those who are out there saying that these are everyday people, these are families, that are being attacked and dragged out of their homes?
How do you respond to that?
I don't think we've arrested any families.
We've arrested public safety threats and national security threats, bottom line.
And look, President Trump won the election on this one issue, securing our border and saving lives.
This, what happened on our southern border last four, is the biggest national security threat this country has seen, at least in my lifetime, because we've got over 2 million known Godwes.
We've got a 600% increase in sex trafficking.
We've got a record number of terrorists crossing the border on the terrorist watch list.
We have a quarter million Americans diving fentanyl coming across the open border.
We're going to do this job, and we're going to enforce the laws of this country.
If they don't like it, then go to Congress and change the law.
We're going to do this operational apology.
We're going to make our community safer.
We're going to save.
Once we lock that border on continuous operation, you're going to see fentanyl, death decrease, illegal alien crime decrease, sex trafficking decrease.
It's all for the good of this nation, and we're going to keep going.
No apologies.
We're moving forward.
You know, I hate to say it to Tom, but I don't think Tom understands.
This!
I just want to say that I'm so sorry.
Tom, she's sorry.
All my people are getting attacked.
All her people are getting attacked.
Tom, you heartless.
Son of a gun, you.
They don't understand.
They don't understand.
I'm so sorry.
I wish I could do something.
She wishes she could do something.
I don't know.
She doesn't want to do.
I'll try everything.
She's tried everything.
She's picking a lint out of her eyes right now.
Eye boogers.
She has eye boogers in her eyes.
That means something.
Mucosal globs, congealed globules of eye jam.
I love this.
I wish I could do something, but I can't.
Doesn't that mean anything to you?
I wish I could do something again.
I don't know what to do, she says.
What the hell's the matter with you?
I'll try anything.
And you heartless people, with your eye rolls, and even you, Liz Solak, I'm surprised you do LOL.
What are you lolling about?
For God's sakes!
Cue the violins, ladies and gentlemen, the collective eye rolls, as I said.
And the entirely predictable social media backlash, the histrionics, the waves, the cataclysms, the salvos of people coming forward.
Oh, God.
They don't get it.
Can you imagine her age is probably on the phone saying, what?
Did you approve this?
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Even Piers Morgan, Piers Morgan, Jesus God!
Now you've done it!
Piers Morgan, the voice, the heart of a generation?
God.
For an actress worth a staggering, allegedly $1.3 billion, from what?
I have no idea, it doesn't matter.
Gomez put on a display of helplessness that would almost be laughable if it weren't so utterly tone-deaf and frankly stupid.
What exactly?
Please, Liz, I ask you.
Max Payne.
Kay.
Kay Kiefer.
Kay.
Kay.
Kay Bixby.
What exactly is stopping her from doing everything?
She has the resources.
She has the connections.
She can have teams of lawyers and she can do whatever.
She's going to pick up the phone, get off her ass and do something.
She has a platform to fund legal aid services, sponsor immigrant families.
She can bring them in.
Do it!
But she doesn't know what to do.
Yes, you do.
Maybe advocate for policy changes in a meaningful way.
Maybe, maybe, dare I say, join us.
Join us and President Trump is fighting illegal...
And what about the young ladies?
What about the people?
What about...
Did you see the pictures of these poor people?
The names.
Look at these people.
Look at them.
Kayla Hamilton, Ruby Garcia, Elizabeth Medina, Rachel Morin, Lakin Riley, Jocelyn Mungere, another Jocelyn Tokiza, Melody Waldecker, Molly Tibbetts.
They go on and on, but she doesn't know what to do.
Don't you understand this?
Therese Pollard says, I cry harder when I stub my toe, as well usual.
And she's an actress.
Pilgrimedia says, meant the Oscar for Mrs. Goldman immediately.
Oh, I don't think so.
Oh, no, no.
She might have very, very, very seriously hurt herself.
Don't kid yourself.
Mel says, she has lupus and has had a liver transplant.
Let's all feel bad for her.
I have no idea.
I have no idea about her.
Selena Goon.
Selena Gomez has been open about her health, which include lupus, autoimmune disease, inflammation of various organs, including kidneys.
She was diagnosed with lupus.
She has mental health conditions.
Gomez has outspoken about her experiences with anxiety, depression, and a bipolar disorder.
She's also sought treatment for these conditions.
She has small intestine bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO, S-I-B-O, a condition where there is an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine, which can lead to digestive issues, such as bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.
She's reported experience fatigue, joint pain, and other issues.
And it's a journey.
It's a journey.
It's a journey.
And God bless her, we wish her well.
We don't mean to mock her health travails, as it were.
But instead of doing something positive, no, no, no, she said we're treated to this melodramatic fugue, this Instagram story, this fleeting, disposable piece of digital theatrics, this evanescent, this little...
Piece of nothing that accomplishes nothing except broadcasting her own emotions.
Gomez's tears, her tears, the lacrimations.
Might be real.
I don't know.
Can't really say.
But I think all of us recognize the fact that they seem less about genuine empathy, real feeling, real empathic concern, and more about showcasing her herself.
Her self-proclaimed virtue to a global audience.
I mean, after all, nothing says I care like crying into your iPhone and hoping your followers will validate your feelings.
Isn't this something?
Isn't this something?
Don't you show just how completely stupid she is?
And keep in mind what's going on with LA and how so many of them have lost everything.
So they're a little bit less Put it this way, they're a little bit more attuned to listening to the idea that maybe there's something to be said for this.
Now, and let's not ignore the sheer hypocrisy of Gomez and these crocodile tears.
While she weeps, weeps over the plight of illegals, excuse me, undocumented immigrants, as she calls them, she conveniently neglects to mention the countless, innocent, American women and children who have been victims of crimes so horrible, I can't say it in this platform, even though these are valid news stories.
All of these crimes committed by illegal aliens.
So I'm asking, my friends, where is her outrage for the families destroyed, shattered, ruined permanently by the violent offenders who crossed the border?
Who?
Who?
Who crossed the border unlawfully, illegally.
Where were her tears for the mothers?
The mothers who lost their children to drunk driving incidents.
Remember those people involving undocumented immigrants or as she calls them.
I call them aliens, illegal aliens.
Or the fathers mourning their daughters brutally By gang members.
These, as you know, are not isolated incidents.
They are real, absolute, legitimate tragedies.
Palpable, tenable, actual.
Real tragedies deeply rooted in the controlled and contrived and organized chaos of the Biden administration and of a poorly enforced immigration system which was, for all practical purposes, non-existent.
And those rat bastards.
The radical left woke, they want this back.
Yet Gomez, like many of her Hollywood ones, who are so devoid of real feelings, they're almost, they're on their own, not on their own spectrum, their own frequency.
But she chooses like her friends to ignore the stories because they don't fit.
The particular narrative of the oppressed immigrants and the heartless deportation issues.
Oh, my God.
Instead, she offers us this phony attempt at empathy, some empathy performance devoid of context, substance, legitimacy, reality.
Come on!
But it's not just her.
It's about others as well.
It's the left.
What's left of the left?
Gomez and her display reeks, drips of this holly weird elitism.
The kind of elitism that assumes, it takes for granted, that American people, the average American, What a celebrity thinks about immigration policy?
They always think that we care about them.
They always think.
This video is a textbook.
It is perfect.
It's a perfect example of how out of touch, completely devoid of reality, these unnecessarily wealthy people, these insulated stars, they live in their own little bubble, their own little Inertial bubble.
They have no idea the struggles of everyday citizens.
They have no idea.
People who live paycheck to paycheck.
And while she cries, by the way, in her multi-million dollar mansion in her life, ordinary Americans are dealing with the economic and social fallout of illegal immigration.
They have cities and counties and environments and townships that are stretched and can't deal with the fact that all of a sudden you have these people dumped in from nowhere?
Forced to go into classrooms?
Forced to all of a sudden hear, take care of them, emergency rooms.
Take care of them, public facilities.
You're on your own.
We're not going to pay for this.
We're going to cry for them, but we're not going to pay for them.
Overburdened schools and hospitals to competition for jobs, to strain on public safety resources, police, fire.
Emergency rooms, because when they walk in clinics, they just walk in.
They have no idea of it.
They're promised everything.
And it's easy to virtue signal from the comfort of a privileged existence, isn't it?
It's much harder to address the reality and the complex realities that we see that this great president tried to address and continues to address and will address.
But it's harder to address really and deal with the...
I keep saying the reality faced by people who live on the front lines.
They have no idea.
They think because they live in this closeted, cosseted world that their opinion means something.
They feel that somehow they're imbued with some ability to speak about subjects they know nothing about.
And perhaps maybe what's the most galling and the most frustrating aspect of Gomez, these little Celebrity performative antics is her attempt to paint President Trump's immigration policies as cruel!
It's cruel!
They're unjust!
While conveniently ignoring, my friends, conveniently ignoring their absolute necessity under the great President Trump's leadership.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE, do the great and the inimitable talent of that proud and fabulous American, Tom Holman.
ICE has prioritized the deportation of violent criminals, gang members, and other vermin and lowlife, scum buckets, human.
Hominid slime who pose a clear threat to public safety.
These aren't innocent families being torn apart.
No, no, no, no, no.
They're dangerous offenders who have no legal right to remain in our country.
Do you hear me?
By conflating By conflating the two, GUMIS seeks to minimize and diminish the severity, the lethality, the horror of these crimes.
These crimes committed by this vermin.
And it all undermines the efforts of the great men and women who comprise our law enforcement.
Who were put there to protect us.
Strain resources because they've got to...
Double, triple their duties.
This has got to stop.
She does not know what she's done.
Gomez has no idea what she's done.
We will not let her forget this.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you are online, if you are a part of X, the great community of X, make sure you let people know this.
Make sure to speak out.
Say something.
Don't use merely this wonderful and incredible platform of discussion to explicate Your anger.
Go online.
Make her name viral.
Truly, truly, truly viral.
Oh my God.
President Trump's policies are not about targeting vulnerable families or Children.
They're about restoring law and order and control.
About restoring a system of judicial checks and balances.
Just law enforcement to a system that has been abused for far too long.
The administration's focus on deporting criminal illegal aliens and securing the border has already saved countless lives.
Do you agree?
Do you agree?
This is a fact that apparently seems to have escaped Ms. Gomez and her teary-eyed Lachrimating sympathizers.
Does that make sense to you?
Well, she screams and bemoans the deportation of her people.
Her people!
What about our people?
What about Americans?
What about us?
What about the innocent people I've mentioned?
What about Lincoln Riley?
What about others?
She completely ignores the suffering that's been inflicted on actual Americans.
Let me say this.
Actual Americans.
They're not Americans.
People who are here.
People who are here first.
People who abide by the laws, who pay taxes.
Us.
She completely forgets this.
What about us?
What about our suffering?
Does she have any idea what's going on?
The people that gave her her billions?
It was this country, not that country.
And if she loves it, get the hell out!
Go back!
Go back and live among them.
Take your billions and go back to wherever the hell you're from.
And do it!
Nobody's stopping you.
Wouldn't you love to see just one?
I think, who was it?
Ellen?
I think a lot of these people are leaving because of extradition.
Maybe because of Epstein concerns.
I don't know, but I wish they'd get the hell out!
I wish one!
Don't you?
Has anybody left?
Friends, answer me.
Answer me.
Greg, Rick, Frank, Adam.
Vincent Sammartino!
You son of a...
I love you!
You magnificent bastard!
Do you think...
Do you think that maybe...
Maybe she might be able to help them?
Does anybody care about us?
I don't understand this.
About the pain that's been inflicted on us?
This has nothing to do with left or right or up or down or conspiracy.
This is the truth.
How about the problem, the pain exacted upon actual Americans, the very individuals that ICE is working to remove right now?
And this selective performance, performative, you know, this pretend empathy isn't only hypocritical.
But it's insulting.
It's insulting.
Joe says enough about Selena.
Joe, do you not understand this, my friend?
Let me try to explain something to you, Joe.
And you listen, you listen good.
It's not about Gomez.
It's about the left.
It's about the people.
She represents Joe.
The problems that we are having regarding the radical left woke.
Do you understand this, Joe?
Would somebody help Joe out?
Would somebody give Joe a program?
Maybe a chair?
Maybe some ice water?
Somebody soothe his brow?
What the hell's the matter with you?
You think this is about her?
Do you not understand how this is in essence an apostrophe?
This is a symbolic, this is not referential.
Everybody's talking about this, Joe.
Jesus Christ!
Everybody, you use this.
When we talk about L.A. fires, it's not about just a fire.
It's not about the Palisades.
It's about something bigger.
Joe, will somebody help Joe out?
Joe, I know you're a good person.
Joe, I know you're trying to explain.
I know you put some kind of an emoji there.
What is it, a plum?
What is that?
I have no idea what that is with a piece of measuring tape.
I have no idea what that is even talking about.
Joe, don't be that person in your family.
Go, oh God, Joe's here.
Joe doesn't get it.
Joe, I know you better than that, my friend.
That's why you're here.
So we're going to let this one go.
We're going to let this go.
Somebody help out Joe.
It's not about her.
Go ahead.
Where is she from?
She's from Grand...
Where is she from?
She's from Grand...
Perry, Texas.
Hang on.
There she goes.
She's from...
Yep, she's from, that's right, Grand Prairie, Texas.
Yep.
Yep.
And her family is, she was born to Ricardo Joel and Texas born, she was born to, she was born in Grand Prairie to Ricardo Joel Gomez and Texas born former stage actress Mandy Teefy.
Okay.
You understand what's going on here?
Does this make sense to you?
It's not about her.
It's about what she represents.
Dear God, somebody help him out.
There's nothing better than when you're pouring your heart on you and you think, finally, finally I found, this is a perfect example, everybody in there and their mothers talking about this tonight.
Everybody.
I just told you Tom Holman was brought about.
Tom Holman!
And you say, who cares about her?
Oh my God, there's always somebody, isn't there?
Somebody who doesn't get it.
Somebody who just does not get it.
Somebody who does not understand what the hell is going on.
So it's not just about her.
It's about other people too.
This virtue signaling.
This lunacy.
This sheer...
And it's from everybody, people that I know.
And you've seen them.
They want this to be stopped somehow.
This is...
We are in...
This is the president's...
Number one move.
promise to us.
And the virtue signaling is something that everybody else...
Don't you understand?
Joe, and I don't want to...
I don't want to give a hard time.
You're probably a good person.
I'm sure you're a good person.
But Joe, there are people...
In the radical left and the media platforms that we must destroy intellectually by virtue of our fortitude and the like.
And this virtue signaling is everywhere.
You've seen this all the time.
You've seen these people.
Ladies and gentlemen, a person by the name of Raka Fraka says, Lefties, keep crying.
It helps us identify you from real American loving people.
Plus, your tears taste great.
Love you, Lionel.
Could not have said it better myself.
Your tears taste great.
Lacrophage.
Like lacrimating.
We're trying to do a portamento of lacrimosity, lacrimose, lacrimation, and eating like autophagy, lacrophage.
In any event, what do you care?
What am I talking about?
Borders are Tom Holman, Mrs. L. Knows him.
Met with him.
We saw him speak in New York.
He's incredible.
This man and the men and women of ICE have ramped up their efforts, apprehending nearly 1,200 individuals a day.
A day.
It's been a week.
Today.
A week.
You got that, Joe?
A week.
And by the way, the people that are getting child predators, human traffickers, and suspected terrorists, we're not talking about somebody who just has a sombrero named Pedro with a serapi.
Hey!
No!
Deportation flights have resumed, and we've also told other countries, like that rat bastard from Colombia, you better do this, or we're going to slam you with Mexico saying, no problems.
We'll take them.
This is beautiful!
How can you not?
Be happy about this.
Deportation flights have resumed and the administration has made it absolutely clear that no one in the country illegally is exempt from what we forgot was this thing called the rule of law.
You got that?
And these actions are not only legal, I think humane, but overwhelmingly supported by the American public.
And with recent polls, Joe, with recent polls, wait a minute, hold it, Liz says, oh, and Demi Lovato was the other Disney bride.
There you go, Liz.
Listen to this.
She knows.
She knows.
Recent polls show that 70%, 70%, 70%.
Presented for voters back Trump's prioritization of deporting illegal immigrants.
Isn't that wonderful?
So this is not about Gomez.
It's about that mentality.
It's about this radical left woke lunacy that we must grind into dust.
You hear what I'm saying?
And this little video was so wonderful, so perfect, so great, because...
And then taken away right away.
Why would you take something away right away?
Why would you take something down that made sense?
Why would you say, oh, never mind.
Wait a minute.
You were crying.
The video also raises the broader questions about the performative nature, the crocodile tears, the BS nature of Hollywood activism.
What exactly?
And I ask you, Joe, what exactly does she hope to achieve with this Public, with these histrionics and this display of emotion.
What does she want?
What, awareness?
Awareness of what?
You think her 422 million followers are already aware of the immigration debate?
You think so?
I think so.
Kay Kiver thinks so.
Delilah does.
Edwin Jones.
Even Edwin Jones!
Edwin says Satan loves using these people.
Edwin brings in Satan!
This is Edwin.
He's talking about Satan.
Let him go.
It's Edwin for God's sakes.
He wants to bring up Satan.
Let him bring up Satan.
Who am I to argue?
Maybe it is.
I don't know.
He loves to say.
Movies suck.
Kay.
A person with the name of Kay.
Movies suck now anyway.
That's a spirit.
Luddite perhaps, but nonetheless good.
So what exactly?
What is this action she wants?
Crying into a camera?
You think that inspires anyone?
Does that make anybody...
Does that accentuate, accelerate meaningful change?
Huh?
Do you think that just talking into a phone...
We talk to other people constantly.
I'm not talking about me.
When I'm talking to you, it's not about, oh, look at me.
Look how I'm upset.
No!
I'm telling you what we should be.
That's what we do.
I don't care if your name is Sam Martino.
Everybody's got to understand this.
If anything about this dingbat, her little momentary video serves, I guess, as a reminder of just how shallow, how insipid, how vapid, how useless, ineffective celebrity activism is, or whatever this leftist stuff is.
Rosie O'Donnell.
Who was the...
Maybe this Joe.
Maybe I can help you.
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe.
Who is the celebrity activist who makes you sick to your stomach?
Who makes you just feel like you're going to lose all cloacal control?
Where you're going to become Vesuvius-like as you wax emetic?
Who is the person?
Who?
I ask you.
I don't care if your name is Vinny.
It doesn't matter.
Who?
Save your hearts.
Van, who?
Who is the person?
Who?
Lizzie Solak knows.
Who?
What makes you blow chunks, blow grossing?
Joy Behar.
Joy Behar's not an activist.
Joy Behar is a carbuncle on the arse of society.
De Niro, who is it?
I don't know who's good.
But we need these people.
We need these people.
You know, it's easy to feel powerless when activism is limited to Instagram stories and social media.
It's easy.
Real change requires what we're doing.
Real change requires voting more than tiers and hashtags.
It's going on and I'm pulling my heart out every single day to inspire you, to make you feel, to be imbued with the spirit of America.
I want to teach you.
I want to inspire you.
It's not about me.
It's about us.
It's about doing the right thing.
It's about plotting those people who do the right thing, and also chiding and destroying and calling on and indicting those people who hurt, those people who are contrary, who act contrary to the fundamental precepts in, dare I say, the ABCderian latticework of what our country is all about.
It takes effort, commitment, and sacrifice, my friends.
Look at us.
There are many, many people like us.
People qualities that are notably absent from Gomez and her lacrimation.
Think about this.
And, if it's possible, adding insult to injury, ladies and gentlemen, Gomez.
Follow-up.
Gomez's follow-up post after deleting the video in which she wrote, Apparently, she wrote this, apparently it's not okay to show empathy for people.
Can you believe that?
Did you hear that?
It's a transparent attempt, a not so transparent attempt, basically to deflect criticism and point fingers at you!
Pain herself is a victim.
Can you believe that?
She's pointing victim at you.
Gloria Hanley, she's talking to you!
Edwin Jones, for the love of God!
This is Satan!
Does that help?
Does that help?
Is Edwin going to know?
That make sense?
Liz Solak said, I wish I had her problems.
You're right about that.
It's a transparent attempt to deflect criticism and paint herself as some kind of a victim.
The issue is not empathy.
The issue is the hollow, void, vacuous, insipid, void, vapid, self-serving way.
In which she chooses to express her opinions.
True empathy.
True empathy leads to action.
Right, Jonathan?
Right, Adam?
Do you understand this?
True empathy leads to action.
That's the most important thing.
I can't say it enough.
I can't say it enough.
I can't.
I can't put it into words better than I'm trying right now.
To use her as an example.
It's amazing.
If I were able to have, if I had that much money, oh my god.
If I cared about...
Undocumented, or maybe better yet, the family members of those people, I would be offering scholarships.
I'd be doing in the names of Lake and Wiley, not just legislation.
Maybe help people.
Maybe help get people on the street, on their feet.
Maybe provide mental health support, like Mrs. L is doing.
As we speak right now, as we will be tomorrow, I'll tell you all about that, after the fact.
To go out there and do something.
It's easy to sit back and just...
She could use her immense wealth and influence to support organizations that provide actual, real, tenable assistance.
Just shedding this performative nonsense.
These tears for social media clout.
That's it.
How we brown for the love of God.
How he gets it.
How he gets it.
It's just obvious.
The irony to me, the irony, the utter and absolute incredible irony of Gomez and her apparent outrage or sadness or whatever the hell it is, is that it completely achieves the opposite of what she intended.
The opposite.
Instead of drawing attention, this is important, instead of drawing attention to the plight of the undocumented, those poor criminals, They don't mean to hurt and harm and destroy and kill.
No.
Her video actually sparked a backlash that highlights the absurdity, the absolute absurdity of celebrity performative virtue signaling.
That's the funny part.
Maybe, I hope.
Finally shows you, especially, by the way, this goes to all those lunatics who sit in their car with their purple hair and their nose rings and go, my name is Schur, and they talk to somebody, these apostrophes.
You know what an apostrophe is?
It's like Alas, poor Yorick.
You use something as a, it's not the grammatical, but it means, but it's a style of speech where you, Hamlet, the soliloquy is an apostrophe.
Alas, poor Yorick.
But anyway.
This is a case study in how not to advocate for a cause.
How not to show concern.
How not to be affected.
All emotion, all crying, no substance, and a complete lack of self-awareness.
That's beautiful, isn't it?
A complete lack of self-awareness.
By focusing on her own feelings.
Remember, it's all solipsistic.
It's all self-referential.
It's all narcissistic.
But by focusing on her own feelings, Rather than, you know, the complexities and the nuances of a very serious problem, Gomez has, oddly enough, managed to alienate even those who might otherwise agree with her.
Don't you understand this?
Don't you understand?
Does this make sense to you?
Sala, do you understand this?
Do we understand this?
Meanwhile, the great President Trump, And his great and intrepid, brave administration continue to address the real challenges posed by illegal immigration.
Ladies and gentlemen, DB says, I think people should look up Jacob Howard, 14. Okay, thank you.
Terrific.
Thank you, I guess.
I don't know what that means, but thank you.
I guess thank you.
I'm not sure.
It doesn't matter whether I agree or understand, obviously.
Now, unlike this performance, which was taken down, again, why was it taken down?
President Trump's policies are rooted in a commitment to protect American citizens and families and voters of all colors and stripe and all.
Aspects, all demographics, in order to uphold the rule of law.
And the contrast could not be starker and more apparent.
Hollywood elites, what is happening to them, and they are just falling apart.
Look at TV, look at the media, just look, everything that we thought, TV, CNN, Jim Acosta at 12, I mean, we have the...
The Academy Awards coming?
I don't know if anybody even cares about that.
I don't even know if anybody, nobody, it's just, it's over.
It's over.
Ladies and gentlemen, a man by the name of Nelson A says, Mr. L, when is the next Friday ventilation?
We adore Mrs. L. How about Friday?
How about Friday?
Thank you, my friend.
It will be Friday.
Your wish is my command, my friend.
And thank you for that.
And thank you for your support.
You're a good man.
I don't care what they say.
You're a good man.
Okay?
Now, we keep saying crocodile tears, crocodile tears.
You know, the derivation or the etymology of the word where they...
It's a lure.
President Trump is delivering results one week after being elected.
This great man is ensuring that America remains.
A nation of laws and a beacon of hope.
I know this sounds corny, you know, beacon of hope, but it's true.
For those of us who seek order, and for those also who seek to enter legally and contribute meaningfully, nobody's ever said, you're not welcome here.
And in the long run, this is the most important.
This Gomez and this video, which is so perfect, it'll always be, it has inspired such reaction.
It's emblematic of everything wrong with radical left woke activism.
The shallow, self-indulgent, insincere, tissue-thin, synthetic, completely disconnected from reality.
Merd.
The crying may have been sincere.
I don't know.
But sincerity without action is meaningless.
Remember this.
Edwin, remember this.
Sincerity without action is meaningless.
If Gomez truly wants to make a difference, she should stop the baby crying and start using her platform to make real change.
Until then, these histrionics, this nonsense, this performative nothing, will remain what it is.
Trite, hollow, vapid, and entirely unconvincing.
Don't you understand?
You understand?
Now Special K says, nobody cares what people who put themselves on pedestals think anymore, but they're too in love with themselves to realize it.
But it's not just that.
Again, I'm trying to explain.
We're not merely talking about Hollywood, whatever.
We're talking about that way of thinking.
And those people still exist.
Do you hear what I'm saying?
Ladies and gentlemen, they still exist in the Democratic Party.
In...
These are agents.
These are proxies for the Democratic Party.
It's not about her.
Do you understand this?
Do you understand what I'm saying?
It's not...
About just her.
Please tell me.
Demon rats.
Demon rats.
Panda bear.
Yes.
That's what it's about.
It's not about a particular person.
It's about somebody.
It's about the left.
And they're still there.
And they're not going away.
And they have to be crushed by us at the polls, ideologically, intellectually, philosophically.
Do you hear what I'm saying?
My friend, I want to thank you.
Nelson A., D.B., Rocca, Franca, Mel, his name is Mel, Raul Rodriguez, Therese Pollard, Pilgrim Media.
I want to thank you for this.
Let me say this again.
This is not some gossip show where you talk about, aren't these celebrities?
No, no, no, no, no.
It's about something even more important, something more critical.
It's about these people.
These people.
Idiots.
These loathsome fools.
That is what it's about.
My friends, February the 22nd at the Cutting Room.
I want to see you there.
Make a point.
New York City.
One of the greatest comedy venues, music, comedy, otherwise, you can imagine.
Beautiful.
32nd Street between Park and Mad.

Sign up for this.
Sign up for it, my friends.
And thank you for doing everything that you can to make us so we are different.
I don't sit here and I'm not trying to spew the same stuff.
I want to try to find something a little bit different.
I want to say things in a new way, in a new way, in a new kind of a vector, so to speak, in a way that makes sense.
Do you hear what I'm saying?
That's what I want more than anything else.
That's what I want.
All right, dear friends, have a great and a glorious day.
Follow me, follow Mrs. L at Lens Warriors.
Thank you for being here.
Thank you for joining us every single day.
We'll be seen in the morning.

Might be earlier.
Because we have a very important meeting, Mrs. L and I. And we might have to get out early.
So, yeah.
Might be...
I don't know if 7 is too early for you.
I hope not.
We're going to do 7. 7 it is.
All right, dear friends.
Have a great and glorious day.
Don't ever change the meaning of that sincerely.
Thank you so much for everything you've done.
You're good people.
All of you.
You're great people.
You're the reason why God made Oklahoma.
I think David Frizzell and Shelley West said it better.
And that's for Selena Gomez.
I think she knows what I mean.
Alright, my friends.
Subscribe to Lionel Nation.
Make sure you subscribe.
See you tomorrow.
7 a.m.
Starting earlier.
Because we never...
If I have something to do, I'll just start earlier.
Because the message is more important.
Have a great and glorious night.
We love you.
And don't forget, the monkey's dead.
The show's over soon yet.
