It is incumbent upon us to change the way people think.
I don't want to just do a show just for fun so that we kind of laugh.
You know, amuse ourselves.
We say, oh, that's great.
That's funny.
I want to do more than that.
I want to change people's minds.
I don't want people to wear what's going on.
I want people to really get it.
And I will use everything in my power, every available means of explication that I can use to get people to pay attention.
And what is critical for everybody to understand, and importantly you as well, is that Media, whether it's social media or television or The View or whatever it is, this is where most people will get the news.
This is where most people will hear about it.
And if I use them as an example, let's say whether it's Selena Gomez or somebody else, to explain, to explicate, as I say, to perorate, to adumbrate, to expatiate, to limb, to describe.
Something that is critical.
I will do that.
It doesn't matter to me the source of it.
As long as I get the point across.
That's it.
As long as I get the point across.
And I've got things for you this morning that are going to be so incredible.
You're not going to believe this exists anywhere.
Now, whenever you find yourself in the position of ever saying these words, I don't care about so-and-so.
Do us a favor, pick up your belongings, and go.
This isn't for you.
This is not a program about your likes, what makes sense to you, your sensibilities, your worldview, your likes, dislikes, predilections, predispositions, propinquities.
Predispositions, propensities, excuse me.
We don't care about that.
We don't care whether you like Instagram, don't use Instagram, watch cable, haven't had a TV in 25 years, whether you don't know who Selena Gomez is.
It doesn't matter.
That's not what we want.
That's not it.
There is a tendency people have to say, well, That's not important.
Let me explain something to you.
Selena Gomez's stupidity, along with some new ones that we have, are more important to our cause than anything Sean Hannity has ever said.
Or Jake Tapper, or I don't know who else, Rachel Maddow, or anybody.
They can speak all night long.
Unless it's Jim Acosta.
We'll talk about him in a moment.
What really gets people's attention, believe it or not, in a way that you probably don't know anything about, interestingly enough, is what happens in conventional, regular entertainment modes.
That makes more sense.
There is a little piece about Ozempic, which I don't want to get into, but some actress or somebody said, oh, she's osteoporotic now.
Gee, I just Ozempic, and they're going crazy over this because the power of social media, the power of these people and how we can use them as an example to perpetuate our truth.
It's so important.
I beg you, don't dismiss this.
Don't laugh at this.
And also, I don't care about these people myself.
I don't belabor you with what I find interesting.
All I'm trying to do is spread the word to keep the great work of this man, this common sense approach to everything, whether it's...
Crime, immigration, to perpetuate, to promote, to promulgate the great work of President Trump.
And I will use everything in my power, every example available.
So sit back, get ready, make sure you are subscribed to Lionel Nation.
Can't say it enough.
Make sure you are subscribed to Lionel Nation.
Because more people I found out, for some reason, find that they are unsubscribed.
But before...
this important and critical message.
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 Listen, they've 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 Lytle 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.
Years ago, they yelled it.
FDR, who dared, dared to go on radio.
They said it was beneath the President of the United States to dare, to deign to go on radio.
Don't go on radio.
Radio, no, no, no, you're President, you're too dignified.
Before that, there was a time when Abraham Lincoln was castigated for the fact that he actually ran for office.
Did you hear what I have to say?
He campaigned.
He campaigned.
He put pictures of me.
You don't understand.
They said, you can't do that.
They said, what do you mean?
No, no.
You can't.
You merely announce that you're going to run and then we come to you.
This may not seem like much to you.
But what's happening in the real world, this is where I would focus.
I would say, I can talk.
Sean Hannity or Harris Faulkner or whoever the hell it is can talk all day long.
Breitbart and good, good, terrific, wonderful.
That preaches to the choir.
But all of a sudden, you've got people coming out of the woodwork.
Now, in case you have been perhaps not paying attention, this is what we're talking about.
This is Selena Gomez.
Now, let me start off with this.
I know.
You don't know who she is.
You don't like her.
You don't care about her.
You never heard of her.
She doesn't matter.
Okay, get it out of your system.
Okay, ready?
Okay.
Are you done?
Good, good.
She's got about 400 or so, I don't know, a million fans here and there.
They say she's worth 1.3 billion.
I don't believe any of this, but I'm telling you what the word is.
She, the other day, thought, I'm Selena Gomez.
I'm going to do whatever I want because I'm Selena Gomez.
And whatever I say goes.
Because I'm Selena Gomez and I'm a celebrity.
And if I say this, people will go for it because I'm Selena Gomez.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Does this make any sense to you?
And all of a sudden, out of nowhere came a reaction that she never thought.
And immediately she took her post down.
This is what she said.
I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry.
She's sorry.
She's not going to do anything.
But she's sorry.
She's born in Texas.
Her people, unless she's a member of MS-13 or she's a convicted felon or something, these are not her people.
So she hasn't even gotten in, what, a second?
Five seconds into this and she's lying.
Only people are getting attacked.
Her people are getting attacked, okay?
Children.
I don't understand.
I'm so sorry.
I wish I could do something.
She wishes...
See, on so many levels, she's not even into this.
This is 22 seconds.
22 seconds.
And she was ripped and shredded in 22 seconds.
This is more important than anything you can imagine.
I don't know what to do.
She doesn't know what to do.
She's theoretically a billionaire and has no idea how to sponsor people, set up 501c3s, help people, let them move into one of your many properties.
Nothing.
The hypocrisy.
Now she's 24 seconds into this.
I'll try everything I promise.
She's promising.
She's going to try everything.
She thought nothing about what she did.
Now, again, I know you don't care who she is.
Who cares?
Let's get it out.
Get it out, please.
Because I know this.
I know.
It's who we are.
We don't care about this.
We're stupid.
Okay, fine.
You done?
Good.
The reactions have been absolutely brutal.
And here is the thing.
Let me explain this.
It's not about Selena Gomez.
It's about the idea.
More people have realized that arguing against deportation of illegals is stupid by virtue of Selena.
Let me give you an example.
Let me explain something to you oh so quickly.
And I told myself I was going to calm down and chill out and be a cool voice to reason on this app, but you people make it really hard.
I don't know who she is.
It doesn't matter.
I know.
Who is this?
I don't know who this is.
Okay, fine.
This is just a sampling of the bounce back or the pushback or the reaction to this lunacy.
Your people, your people, you're not from Mexico, number one.
You were born in Texas, one of the greatest states here in the United States of America.
You were afforded rights and privileges that these immigrants do not have.
And need I remind you, they are illegal.
They broke the law.
And most of the criminals, violent criminals, who are being taken out of this state, they're not even from Mexico.
Now granted, don't get me wrong, some of them are, and yes, Mexico is receiving deportees back.
Because, again, they broke the law.
But to go online crying, put a Mexican flag and say, my people, I'm so sorry.
That's a little dramatic if you ask me, right?
Do celebrities literally, like, you guys don't need the clout, okay?
You are very well off.
You have made millions and millions of dollars.
Do you just go online and look up trending topics and go, let me sympathize with what's going crazy right now?
Where was your outrage?
For the 400,000 missing children on the border?
Where was your outrage for the women and children getting completely taken advantage of and raped on the border?
Where was your outrage for Aurora, Colorado?
Where is your outrage for North Carolina and LA when billions and billions of dollars of our taxpayer money is going to illegal immigrants who are not even citizens of this country?
Get a grip, and I'm glad you took that video down because you knew what was coming for you.
And any ounce, any ounce of research would have told you...
That was wrong and it wasn't going to look good.
Now, again, thank you, Selena Gomez.
Sean Hannity could have said everything he wanted.
Sean Hannity could have just...
I'm not picking Sean.
Anybody.
Anybody doesn't matter.
Rachel Maddow.
It doesn't matter.
They could have done...
They could have gone...
They could have been nuts.
Nuts.
Nuts.
Over.
This story.
But they didn't.
Well, nothing that they said could have even matched this.
And here is it.
One of the best parts about this is that we are taking the collective anger that we have regarding the subject matter, but there's a purge against this thing called the celebrity, the elites.
And those folks, by the way, are being somehow, interestingly enough, transmogrified and morphed into other people as well.
Other people.
Other people who are really, really as annoying, if not more annoying.
Keep in mind, this is incredible.
This is important.
Now there's a fellow I want to bring to your attention who is by far the most...
Yes.
His name is Link Lauren.
And he is at...
It's...
I-T-S.
Link.
L-A-N-K.
Lauren.
Like Ralph Lauren.
L-A-U-R-E-N.
This is a person who, and this is another thing, who is ostensibly, I don't know if you can say that, gay, and somebody that you would think would be part and parcel of this group of people who, one would think, believe this automatically.
You would think, right, that this fellow, just gay people are Democrats, and Democrats follow people.
Wrong!
This is not the new American.
This is the American who's been here all along, but somehow got shoved into this group called the radical left.
My friend, Selena Gomez, who I guest-studied foreign policy at Disney Channel University, she decided to weigh in on the deportations happening in our country.
Watch the video, and then we'll talk.
I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry.
Oh, maybe.
People are getting attacked.
Children.
They don't understand.
Selena, sweetheart, come in close.
Listen to me.
This could be why you don't have an Academy Award or any big acting awards whatsoever.
The chops aren't there.
I saw about two tears in that entire video.
I'm also a little confused, Selena Gomez.
You said my people.
They're attacking my people.
Are your people connected to MS-13, the gang?
Are your people ones who've been convicted of manslaughter?
If those are your people, let us know.
You also have about a 13,000 square foot mansion.
That's just one of your properties.
If you care so much about your people, maybe they could come live with you.
If you guys want to know the truth, I've had it with these woke liberals.
Selena Gomez, she's worth over a billion dollars.
If she cares so much about these gang members and these criminals, then call them up and give them a place to live because we do not want them.
And Selena Gomez, why weren't you shedding a tear over Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungari, or any of the other people who've lost their lives at the hands of illegal migrant criminals?
I've also yet to see Selena Gomez shed a single tear over the hundreds of thousands of children who've allegedly been trafficked through Say it.
Say it.
So Selena Gomez, in conclusion, you are an utter calamity.
Sitting around your mansion posting some bizarre, ridiculous video.
I've been down to the border.
I have seen the crisis firsthand.
I've spent more time down at the border than Kamala Harris.
That's not hard.
She was there for 20 minutes.
But nonetheless, I met with local hospital officials, people from the local food bank.
These towns along the border are overrun by illegal migrants.
The federal government has to step in, and that's what Donald Trump has done in the last week since the inauguration.
The United States of America is the land of opportunity.
It always has been and always will be.
People come here from around the world to live the American dream.
But that doesn't mean everybody coming in has good intentions.
I would love for Selena Gomez to actually go down to the border and see the crisis firsthand like I did.
Seeing it on TV is very different than living it and experiencing it in person.
I thought I was done, but I have one more thing to say.
Selena Gomez, I haven't liked her since her best friend gave her a kidney and then they had a falling out.
If your best friend gives you a bodily organ, you have to be friends with them till the day you die.
What kind of person takes a kidney from their less famous, less wealthy best friend then turns around and stops speaking to that said friend?
Selena Gomez, you have to get it together.
You gotta get it together.
If someone gives you a kidney and you turn on them, you're not a nice girl.
Alright, Selena, I wish you well.
You can't sing, you can't dance, you can't act, you can't do anything that well, but I wish you the best in your career.
I hope you will go down and see the border for yourself.
As for you guys, thanks for liking and following.
Drop a comment.
Tell me what you think about this situation.
I will see you on the next one.
Bye.
Do you see what's happening?
Do you see what's happening?
This is the backlash.
This is what America is.
We're pushing these people.
Well, actually, they're pushing themselves.
Out of consideration, out of relevance, this is something...
I'm saying rejoice in this.
Rejoice.
There's this attitude where they don't understand that there's a new sheriff in town.
I'm going to show you a story.
I know you haven't heard this one.
This one you haven't heard, okay?
I'm going to give you a name.
And you're going to tell me.
You're going to tell me this.
You're going to say, I don't know who this is.
And I'm going to join with you, because I don't know who this is.
Do you know the name?
You ready for this?
Now listen to me.
Dank DeMoss.
Yes or no?
I hadn't heard of Dank, which is the past tense of dink, I believe.
Or is it dunk?
Anyway.
Dank DeMoss.
Have you heard of Dank DeMoss?
No, it's okay.
It's okay.
I didn't.
Tell me who's that, right?
Bangkok building.
Don't feel bad, Billy.
I don't know.
I never heard it.
No, I'm not proud of it.
I'm just telling you, okay.
Who is Dank DeMoss?
Are you ready?
I know.
I know.
Here's Susie Dow.
Look at this.
Susie Dow.
Look at this.
I don't care who it is.
That's Susie.
Thanks, Susie.
Susie, do, by the way.
Thank you.
I don't care.
Okay.
I don't care.
Okay.
Watch this.
And you are going to go nuts.
Okay?
You ready for this?
And this is an example of this leftist lunacy that is happening now.
On the edge, a Detroit rapper is going viral for something other than her music.
Fans know her as Dank DeMoss, and they're fuming after a Lyft driver allegedly denied her a ride because of her size.
And Fox News' Jessica Dubnak is live in Detroit with a story.
And my goodness, tell us how this all unfolded here, Jessica.
Well, it all unfolded on video, and Deja Bandley whipped out her phone when this all happened.
Now, the Lyft driver, he was kind enough and apologetic, but refused her a ride and said that she would not fit and that her weight couldn't be handled by his time.
Okay, you ready?
You know where we're going with this, right?
She was refused a ride because of her weight.
Rapper Dank DeMoss, okay, refused a Lyft ride because of her weight, and you know, You know that this is going to be gargantuan.
This is going to be Man Mountain Mike.
This is going to be Haystacks Calhoun.
You know it's coming.
You know it's coming, right?
You know it.
You feel it.
Because that would be the most absurd story for anybody to be upset about not being allowed to drive because of your weight.
When was the last time somebody ever said, I'm sorry, you're too big.
So you know this is going to be behemoth.
And gargantuan.
Okay, get ready.
You know what's happening now.
By the way, if you're eating any kind of muffin or any kind of morning spit, please spit it out.
If you're drinking coffee, because get ready.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you dank DeMoss.
Hi, yours.
Now she's filing a lawsuit.
Have you been in cars that time?
Yes, I have.
I've been in cars smarter than that, you know?
Deja Blanding tells us she was just trying to get to a Detroit Lions watch party this month when her lift rolled up.
As I'm walking, I see him, like, making faces or whatever.
I'm like, oh, man.
She already knew.
Sorry, you missed this.
You missed this.
Now she's filing a lawsuit.
Have you been in cars that time?
Yes, I have.
I've been in cars smarter than that.
There we go.
By the way, I don't want to be gross here, okay?
But the first thing I'm thinking of is hygiene.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Please.
I don't know how that...
What would you use?
A pool cue and a rag?
I have no idea.
Number two...
The amount of friction that is going on right now with the polyester, some kind of a synthetic, could put people at a fire hazard.
I'm just saying.
I'm just saying a spark, something, you know, rubbing like that, not good.
So she is very upset because she was denied service.
And by the way, I don't know about you, but the adipose patterns, I find this very interesting.
Normally, I talk about things like belly fat.
Please, I know you think I'm making fun of her.
I'm not trying to make fun of her.
God knows weight is a problem and obesity is a problem with this poor girl.
She has a significantly...
I'm sorry, her life expectancy by virtue of this girth.
But I've never seen such fat deposition in the front.
In pockets quite like this.
I've been in cars smarter than that.
You know?
Deja Blanding tells us she was just trying to get to a Detroit Lions watch party this month when her Lyft rolled up.
As I'm walking, I see them, like, making faces or whatever.
I'm like, oh, man.
She already knew.
I can fit in this car.
Believe me, it's me.
Yes, I can.
He told her there's not enough room in his car.
The kicker part was when he started to talk about his tires.
You know, I feel like that was a slap in the face.
That was like my tires.
He's worrying about his car.
And she's upset over the fact that she was offended by the fact that...
He's talking about his car.
He's not mocking or saying, this is my car.
This is my...
I'm sorry.
You can turn down a drunk driver, a drunk passenger, maybe somebody who's too rowdy, maybe somebody who is in medical distress.
You don't have a right.
I'm sorry.
You are a licensee.
You have a license.
You are granted permission.
But if this individual does not want to accept service for whatever reason, and it's not based on race or...
Gender or creed or national origin.
But something like behemoth girth?
I'm sorry, lady.
You are wrong.
The driver said his tires could not handle her weight.
His tires could not handle her weight.
Anybody got a problem with that?
Anybody got a problem with that?
Know every big person you turn down because they can't fit in your car No, I don't never have to order over exhale First of all, I don't know what language he speaks.
Another thing to it, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm just going to tell you the way I feel.
We live in the same country.
The same country.
We hear the same music.
We hear the same...
We've heard Obama speak and Reagan speak.
What is this patois?
This is going to be...
One of these days, somebody's going to have to address the fact that you will never, ever, ever be allowed to progress, no matter who you are.
If you speak a framework of English that is not acceptable, that is not conversant with, I don't care who you are, you could be Jed Clampett, you could be Tiffany Henyard.
You can be whatever.
But listen to that.
Who, dat, dat.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We have to stop pretending like, oh, no, no, no, that's just an accent.
It's not an accent.
It's not an accent.
If somebody was reading a transcript of this, the actual person who was the court reporter, the stenographer, would write, who, dat, dat, dis, dat.
She's not saying that.
She's saying dat.
Remember the dat?
Remember D-A-T dat?
This is a problem.
Tattooed eyes, all of this concern over this.
But instead of saying, dear God, woman, she is a walking time bomb, and she actually has the unmitigated audacity to say, I've never had a problem with this.
I'm suing you?
I'm going to clog up the cord system?
It gets better.
Ologize canceled the ride and left her there.
The rapper says she's pretty tough.
I get the money if I didn't make some cool.
Bear Midriff.
Look at this thing.
Look at this.
Who is this one?
What is he?
I think he's holding back the revulsion.
By the way, Chuck Landreth says, Chuck Landreth says, she doesn't need a lift.
She needed a forklift.
You are too.
Too cruel, but most apt, my friend.
I'm so sorry.
Anywho.
Situation.
I just want them to know, like...
Like what?
What do you mean, like?
Don't give me a like.
Just say it.
It really hurt my feelings.
It hurts your feelings.
Well, let me tell you, your feelings are another thing, too.
And...
It hurts your feelings, but it hurts his tires.
It's his car.
That's his means of making money.
He can't sit up with his...
Panis, or his paniculus, pouring over his belt line like you, repeating this, I don't know, this bass rhythm, whatever, which is fine.
America's filled with different musical styles, which I don't necessarily comport with.
This is the audacity.
This is Selena Gomez.
Looks like a lift might be hurting pretty soon, too.
I knew it was illegal, and I knew that it was wrong.
Now listen.
With all due respect, I got to hand it to this guy.
Brother lawyer, God bless you.
God bless you on this one.
I'm with you.
I want to see you.
But the cojones you've got, I would do anything to be in that courtroom.
Wait until that jury sits there and says, are you kidding me?
Are you kidding?
Attorneys John Marco and Zach Runyon say weight is a protected characteristic in Michigan by law.
It would be no different than a driver pulling up and saying, you know, I don't want to have black people in my car, or I don't want to have Christians in my car.
Oh, come on, Marco, Marco, Marco, Marco, Marco.
Please, please, dude, dude, dude, dude, come on.
Listen, I'm with you.
I'm with you.
Weight as a protective class.
If somebody says, you know what, I just don't like the way you look.
Okay.
That's one thing.
But if somebody says, I don't have chairs in this office that can support your weight.
There's no such thing as your weight, your girth is an impediment, a safety consideration.
We have this all the time.
You go to the rise and say, you've got to be this tall, you have to be of this age, you have to, you have to, we have sizes for clothes.
When you go to an old navy, you ask for a size.
Is that discrimination?
How dare you?
I'm merely telling you, this is your size.
You can't get into those pants because you're too big.
You can't wear those shoes because your foot is too big or too small.
This is not discriminatory.
Muslims in my car.
It's the same.
Under the law, it's the same.
The lawsuit is filed.
Since she posted the encounter on social media, other full-figured folks have reached out saying the same thing happened to them.
I can fit in this car.
Believe me, it's better.
Yes, I can.
I really want people to see, like, what we...
Look, look, look, just, just, this man's thing.
Look at the space between your legs.
Those are her thighs.
That's right above her knee.
I think that's her knee.
This man is saying, I don't want her in my car.
Go through as bigger people, you know.
Oh, my God.
We did reach out to Lyft.
They did not get back with us.
I hate the reach out.
We called them.
Why would Lyft say anything?
It's in time for this story.
Now, Lyft, Uber, those rideshare companies, they can refuse passengers based on a perceived security threat, but according to Deja's attorneys, you cannot discriminate based on someone's weight.
It's very clear in that cell phone video that is why he denied her ride.
It's not their weight, it's their size.
It's their size.
Can it be like saying...
But it's interesting.
Wait and son.
It'd be like me saying it is unlawful for you to discriminate against people because of, let's say, medical psychiatric disorders.
How would have somebody screaming and yelling in the back of your car?
You don't have a particular problem with schizophrenia per se.
You have a problem with somebody screaming and yelling.
And this behemoth mountain posed a threat.
That's his He can reject you in that car.
Reporting live on Detroit's West Side, Jessica Dupnack on the edge.
And because these Lyft drivers, their own personal rides, I mean, they turn people away, but they have some discretion, you're saying, but when it comes to some of these protected liberties, no.
No, no, excuse me.
That's not right.
Don't say that.
That's what the lawyer is saying.
That's not what the law says.
Don't necessarily give it, and you also know why they're bending over backwards to accommodate the story, right?
That is what the attorneys are saying, and they said they had enough to file suit.
They have filed that lawsuit, and Lyft has been served, but we will see what happens.
We'll stay in touch with Deja.
Yeah, it's interesting because you said so many people came forward after this, so clearly it's an issue out there right now.
Thanks, Jessica.
Well, it's an issue.
So what is an issue?
Now let me show you this.
This is, this is, I mean, this is this woman, dank, dank, dink, dank.
This is this woman, right?
This is what she, this is, this is, aside from the fact, let me just go through this again.
This is her own version of whatever it is she's going through.
Look at this.
What kind of a culture is this?
What, that we're living in, what is it?
Look at her legs!
This is, I mean, seriously.
This is so sad.
I don't want to, this isn't fat shaming.
This is somebody who is like harming themselves.
And we are, God forbid, some kid or something looks at this and says, is this okay?
No, it's not okay.
It's demented.
Now, let me explain something to you.
This is where we are today.
By the way, I don't blame the lawyers per se.
Look, if you get a...
If this is a nuisance, you get a couple of bills, whatever it is.
I would love to see that.
I would love to see experiments.
Let's see her sit in the car.
And all of a sudden, let's see her get in the car and watch the car go like that.
Hits a bump, the suspension.
Sir, state your name.
How much you have to pay?
And his car is...
Striving all the time.
Anyway, I'm belaboring the point.
This is what's critical.
Let me stop right now for a moment, my friend, and remind you of something which is also important.

I love these men.
I love people who go out of the way.
By the way, best line ever, Chuck Landreth.
She called for a lift.
She needed a forklift.
We don't want to make fun of people per se.
Because of their weight.
That's not the point.
Somebody we do want to make fun of wants to be the governor of South Carolina for four years.
That is Henry McMaster.
And as you can hear behind me, Wolf, the crowd is very fouled up.
We have about a couple thousand people in this room so far.
They are letting the press corps here know exactly how they feel about what we're doing here, Wolf.
I can't hear you anymore.
What's that?
I will.
You got it.
I will.
Never saw it coming.
Has absolutely no clue as to what's going on.
This is who these people are.
They have no clue whatsoever.
Now let me give you another example of something which is important.
Something critical for you to grasp and understand and appreciate and the like.
It's not that we don't like people who are actors.
Mel Gibson's been making a lot of sense recently.
You notice that Mel Gibson?
Mel Gibson is just...
So he's an actor.
We like what Ted Nugent has to say, or what Elon Musk says.
So it's not that actors can't say anything, because to be honest with you, sometimes there are actors who say things that we agree with.
Well, there's a fellow named Wendell Pierce.
He's one of these actors.
He's on, I don't know, whatever one of these.
But he's the latest actor to weigh in in his tirade against President Trump's immigration enforcement policy.
Look him up.
I'm not going to – he's the actor where he's like, oh, African-American actor.
Very, very good.
But he's like, oh, that guy.
Yeah, you know, he's one of those ones.
You go, oh, that guy.
Well, I don't know who he does, but that guy.
Anyway, his latest tirade against President Trump's immigration.
He says, yet another tiresome, boring, Hollywood spectacle of performative outrage, feigned histrionics, crocodile tears, pretend concern, seasoned liberally, if you will, with hypocrisy and devoid of any kind of nuance.
This Pierce, the suits actor who has mastered the art of self-righteous indignation, this is, of course, Wendell Pierce.
He jumped on Twitter, to call President Trump's deportation of, let me say this, criminal illegal aliens.
Criminal illegal aliens.
He doesn't like that.
He says that is a, here we go, a racist purge targeting black and Latino communities.
What?
Yep.
Why?
Well, he's just used to it.
Now, the backlash will swell and come back and hit him like he did Selena.
Now, to add insult to injury, or insult to, I guess, intellectual injury, he labeled President Trump and supporters like you and me as, get ready, white supremacists and neo-Nazis.
You're a white supremacist.
You're a neo-Nazi.
Apparently unaware of how ludicrous such blanket meaningless accusations are to any reasonable observer.
You're a neo-Nazi.
You're a white supremacist.
So let's look at this.
Let's dissect this, shall we?
Let's break this down.
Let's look and see what it is exactly and what the problem is, okay?
Because this melodramatic nonsense is, well, patently absurd.
First, his entire argument, this Pierce fellow, is a masterpiece of selective outrage and hyperbole, but misdirected.
He calls Trump's deportations a racist purge.
You got that?
This is important now.
Because, remember, people are going to be listening to this and saying, okay, go ahead.
They're not going to be listening to Sean Hannity.
I mean, they are, but not the people I'm talking about.
I'm talking about Americans who may not even know they're politically attuned.
He's ignoring these, ignoring these, whatever, primarily because they target individuals with extensive criminal records.
So he's calling you a racist or a white supremacist or a Nazi because you want to go after people with extensive criminal records.
That's number one.
So the question that a lot of people are asking, by virtue of this, they're asking, does this Pierce fellow actually believe that deporting gang members and drug traffickers and human smugglers, that this is racist?
Because that's what this is about.
And we need these people sometimes to come forward and provide this lunacy.
Or is it just easier to play the race card?
Because that's all this guy has to do.
Play the race card.
Play it.
It's easier than to confront the reality of deportations and why it makes sense.
And when you bring up the fact, as we've said, that President Obama was called the deporter-in-chief, it makes a big difference.
This is what's critical.
Brad Rung, by the way, our good friend Brad Rung says, Happy birthday, Alan Alda.
Thank you, Brad.
Brad does this, by the way.
Brad will let us know.
Alan Alda is 89. 1986, the space shuttle Challenger exploded 73 seconds after liftoff.
I remember seeing that in Tampa.
We could see the plume from across the state was that high up.
Killing all seven crew members, including Krista McCall.
Thank you for that, Brad.
Thank you for bringing us, making us aware of events that occurred on this day in history.
Now, let me explain to you also, which is important.
You have to do something and not just stay home and not just say, oh, that's something.
You have to have your own X account.
X Twitter is the best.
Go out and respond to that.
Deluge.
Say something.
It's worth your time.
And by the way, it's also worth noting something that's important.
President Trump and his administration Have been clear about the priorities.
And this is what you've got to tell your friends, because you've got to be an apostle of truth.
A missionary of truth.
Anti-Mendacity missionary.
Removing dangerous criminals who pose a threat to public safety is the goal.
That's it.
But apparently, in this Pierce genius's mind, In pursuit of his worldview, enforcing immigration laws somehow equates to racism.
And protecting American citizens, and this is what we're talking about right now, from harm, is in fact some form of white supremacy.
Now what are you going to do about this?
What are you going to do about this?
This is the most important thing in the world.
He complains also, listen to this about this fellow, but it's interesting, I like this, about a lack of raids in European immigrant communities.
I love that.
This is another example of intellectual laziness.
Does he genuinely believe, this is important, this is a new one, I like this, does he genuinely believe that ICE agents are ignoring undocumented immigrants in, let's say, Brighton Beach, which is, you know, Ukrainian, Little Odessa, or Boston's Irish neighborhoods?
Is that what they think?
Because you've got to ask this question.
Or maybe you might find that maybe, maybe, Maybe, I know this sounds crazy, maybe in Brooklyn and Brighton Beach, or Boston, or in the various enclaves here in New York, maybe the Greeks in Astoria, maybe the Koreans, maybe the Chileans, some of them are in Queens, some of them are in, you know, we have enclaves of Indians.
You don't have Indians and others and Chinese and Japanese, because the key is not that they are merely here.
Illegally.
But they're criminals.
That's the focus, first and foremost.
Now, aside from that, you're right.
If you break the law and enter this country without any kind of formal reason or belief or any fact of being here, it's a different story.
But it's more important.
Is this just another example of some feeble attempt to paint Trump as a villain, as a racist?
The fact is, immigration enforcement focuses on those who pose a risk.
Tell me, what is the Ukrainian, Russian, or Greek version of MS-13?
Anybody?
Anybody?
How about the Indian?
How about the Punjabi version of Drain de Arawa?
Anybody?
Maybe go to Little Italy?
Maybe we can go to Staten Island?
Good luck with that.
They figure, look, why let the facts get in the way?
And then there's this woman named Ana Navarro.
She's from your favorite show, The View.
Now, she's not really that important, but she's important because, remember, it's not we use them as an example of quashing the theory that they propound.
Ana Navarro, who never misses an opportunity to sprinkle and add her unique brand of Self-righteous lunacy and condescension into any discussion.
Okay?
You got that?
Anna Navarro, and again, I'm sorry, I don't know her background, but she's on The View.
And The View is important because it gives people an idea of what people think, because believe it or not, more people, I hate to say it, may watch The View than some of the other shows.
Anyway, Anna Navarro lamented over the fact that Trump voters are now crying because they're...
Abuelas and tios, or grandmothers and uncles, are being deported.
Okay?
She claims she has no sympathy for them because, get this, they brought this on themselves.
They asked for this, in essence, by voting for President Trump.
She says, you, it's kind of like the Jack Reacher thing, you know, remember, you wanted this.
Now, of course, what this, remember, this is important.
This is important.
This is ABC.
That used to provide with Sonny Hostin.
By the way, who wants transparency and the law her husband is facing?
And he's presumed innocent.
It's a civil case.
Her husband faces one of the biggest civil RICO cases ever.
But The View is the show that has to have all of these lawyers provide these Apologies and apologias and corrections and the like.
But anyway, so this Navarro lady apparently, and I think conveniently, skips over the reality that these deportations that we're talking about, that 70 plus percent of Americans agree with, 70 plus percent, are targeted at criminals, not law-abiding immigrants.
Let me also remind Navarro that the people who wanted President Trump and represent an overwhelming...
Plurality of this country.
He won the popular vote.
He won the electoral vote.
So I guess the country is what?
What?
Are they racist?
Her implication that ICE and Tom Homan and others are indiscriminately rounding up innocent families is absurd.
Intellectually abstruse, disconnected, and nothing more than some kind of a scare tactic designed, my friend, to stir up fear and outrage among her audience.
Now remember, her audience, you may laugh.
There's a lot of people in numbers, and that's why we have to make sure that we counter that.
I say this again with all due respect.
Sean Hannity or Matto, they speak...
They preach to their own crowd.
They're not important.
This is the perfect example to say, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's not true.
See, this lady goes on to call the deportation, quote, a publicity stunt.
A publicity stunt.
And claims the quotas that ICE agents are allegedly, she says, allegedly required to meet.
I mean that non-criminals will inevitably be deported.
That this is a quote.
This is a publicity stunt.
Nobody really means it.
That Americans, you're our frustration, like at Riley and others.
And we've seen the pictures of these innocent Americans who've been killed by these people.
You see, ICE has been very, very clear.
Tom Holman has been clear, and President Trump has been very, very clear.
That their collective focus is on removing public safety threats.
And national security risks.
Not hard-working families or children in schools.
But, why let the truth interfere with the narrative of cruelty?
Why?
Why?
It is important.
It is critical.
It is imperative that we fight back.
And we have to understand, my friends, this is an intellectual game.
This is not about...
It's not that we won...
Okay, that's it.
No, no, no.
I want this ideology to be crushed.
I want this lunacy to be destroyed.
Does that make sense to you?
I want this lunacy to be destroyed.
Did you see this?
Colombia now.
Colombia approved the planes.
Moreno reveals key fact about Trump's crackdown hidden by the fake news.
It's just so terrific.
Everything is so terrific.
The news is incredible.
Looking at the New York Post, the New York City raids begin.
Feds begin first major immigrant raids in New York City under the Trump Deportation Initiative.
Dear God Almighty!
It is incredible.
From the New York Post, federal authorities descended on the Big Apple early Tuesday to carry out the first deportation raids in the city as part of President Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration.
There's Tom Holman, It's wonderful.
It's glorious.
And remember, President, who was it?
Mayor Adams had to cancel a lot of stuff.
He has some kind of a medical emergency or procedure.
We wish him well, of course.
We wonder, what the hell is that all about?
Because this is a guy who said he was proud.
We're a sanctuary city!
And they're really coming down.
They're really coming down on Bobby Kennedy Jr.
They're really, they don't like him.
The New York Post editorial, Senators vote no on RFK who still is a radical left lunatic hazardous to our health.
Okay.
Do you think so?
I don't believe so.
I don't believe so.
They don't like him.
That's it.
They don't like him.
That's all I'm going to say.
That's all I'm going to say.
Very simple.
Very, very simple.
Very, very simple.
Here's the story.
I don't know why this is interesting.
Remember Susan Smith?
Stop playing nice.
Killer mom who drowned two boys in 94 has been rude and bitchy since she was denied parole.
Poor thing.
Parole?
I don't think so.
Deep Seek poses grave risk to U.S. economy unless we unleash American exceptionalism.
Now, my friends, I don't know how to say this, but let me back up and let me just tell you what I just did that you might be doing.
And it's a very, very important thing to do.
First of all, number one, do not be overwhelmed by the...
There's so many stories going on.
There's so much news.
You got to kind of pick out a few things and focus on that because if you just react to every single thing because it's like trying to drink from a fire hose.
There's so much.
In the meantime, I want you to understand a couple of things.
First and foremost, my friends, this is the best president anybody could have ever asked for.
His message is clear.
We are blessed to have him as our leader.
It is our...
How do I say this?
We are so blessed.
So blessed to have him.
Ignore what these people are saying.
But in the meantime, whenever somebody says something that's stupid and we can do it, we must crush and remove them.
Remove.
Diffuse.
The bomb.
These ridiculous thoughts.
Diffuse them.
That's all.
That's all.
In any event, I want to thank you this morning.
We had a little earlier start than usual, about two hours earlier, but we have some very, very important things which we will talk about, which we will explain later on.
We always talk about things after the fact.
Chuck, Chuck Landreth and Brad Rung, thank you today.
We always like to tell you things after the fact.
I never understand why people, especially when they're going on vacations and things, why they're telling you what they're doing when they're doing it.
Just wait until afterwards, but they can't.
They're kind of like Selena.
Gomez.
They have to respond now because they don't understand what it means and the enormity of the message in any event.
So thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Don't forget to follow.
Make sure you are subscribed to Lionel Nation.
Make sure you are subscribed to Lens Warriors.
Make sure that you're subscribed to the newsletter.
More coming up during the day.
They are brutal.
And great stuff.
In any event, thanks for watching.
Have a great and glorious day.
We'll see you next time, my friends.
And until then, remember, monkey's dead.
Show's over.
Sue ya.
