from The Other Side of Midnight with Lionel · host 77 WABC

In this hour of The Other Side of Midnight, Lionel dissects the machinery of power, asking the ultimate question: Who really runs the country? He breaks down the critical difference between the "Deep State" bureaucracy and the "Shadow Government" pulling the strings. The conversation takes a wild turn into conspiracy territory, exploring Bill Clinton’s convenient "Sicilian Flu", and the theory that Joe Biden might actually be a body double wearing a mask. Plus, Lionel sounds the alarm on the coming "biomedical tyranny," the uselessness of NATO, and why Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) implies the end of civilization.
