Don Lemon 0:15
Good morning. There's the music. I'm so sorry. I'm a little bit late because we have lots of stuff that we're getting ready for you. I had sort of a different thing planned for you. We were going to talk a lot about the ice rates that were going on. And that is important. We're going to discuss that as they start to happen. So far... It has not started to happen. We discussed it a lot yesterday. It was our breaking news. So welcome to our hot topics. We have a lot of hot topics to talk to you about. Everything from January 6th to what's happened with Meghan and Harry and the media, how they have actually won against the media, who has been, in many ways, gaslighting people, if you want to say that. The same way, in a similar fashion, I should say, as Donald Trump,

and MAGA. And I'm going to explain. So good morning on this very cold day across most of our nation. It is in the teens here in New York. And it is almost just as cold. Actually, it was colder. It was in the single digits last night. And very similarly, in my hometown of Louisiana, especially in Baton Rouge, where my family is, it's as cold as it is in New York. It's crazy. Also, what's happening with this administration, I would say, is cold-blooded. So good morning, my friends. Welcome to The Elimination. Tell me where you are streaming from, where you are tuning in or watching, clicking on our content. Good morning to Maddie Gray and others all across the country. Tell me how cold it is where you are, what is the temperature, and what is your temperature?
Don Lemon 1:54
I'm taking a temperature of the audience, okay? Donald Trump likes to bend reality and facts into his own thing. Remember alternative facts? We're gonna get to all of that. But I want you to go with me here because what they're trying to do and what they have been doing for a while and quite frankly, have been quite successful at is making you doubt that what you see with your own eyes and that what you're hearing with your own ears is not happening or did not happen. And they're very successful at it. Shaping reality. I'm going to start. I like to start with facts, okay? And if you guys have some other facts or some other ideas about what I'm saying, tell us about it. This is your show as well. Be interactive and I'll discuss.

Put it in the chat. First of all, January 6th did not happen. It wasn't what you think it is. It was a walk in the park. It didn't happen. Here's the evidence.

It was a day of love. That was a day of love.

America or Trump.
Don Lemon 3:47
Hmm. A day of love. January 6th did not happen. It did not happen. Thanks to our friends over at the Lincoln Project for that video. Also, they are making you question this. What you saw at the inauguration. Did it happen? Did it not? Did that happen? They're saying it's not what you think it is. Now, what do you think? That it was an unfortunate gesture? And even the Jewish organization, the ADL, is asking for grace. Did it happen or did it not? They're also saying, that Donald Trump never made this phone call to try to influence or overturn a free and fair election. Never happened.
Jacob Chansley 4:47
So, look, all I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state, and flipping the state is a great testament to our country, because You know, it's a testament that they can admit to a mistake or whatever you want to call it, if it was a mistake, I don't know.

If we could just go over some of the numbers, I think it's pretty clear that we won. We won very substantially, Georgia. We have at least two or three, anywhere from 250 to 300,000 ballots were dropped mysteriously into the rolls. Much of that had to do with Fulton County. which hasn't been checked. We think that if you check the signatures, a real check of the signatures going back in Fulton County, you'll find at least a couple of hundred thousand of forged signatures.
Short news clip narrator / reporter - Unknown 5:49
The bottom line is when you add it all up and then you start adding, you know, 300,000 fake ballots, then the other thing they said is in Fulton County and other areas, and this may or may not be true, this just came up this morning,
