Well, my friends, welcome back to Spoton with Link Lauren. I'm still on the road. I will be back in studio on Monday, but I'm on the road again. I can't wait to get on the road again. We can't afford the copyright, but I am on the road today. I am still in Washington, D.C. then I'm getting the hell out of the swamp tomorrow. Thank you, Jesus. I can't stay around the swamp much longer than that. But we have a whole host of hot topics to dive into today. We have to talk about Jasmine Crockett saying that Republicans want to bury their constituents. We have to talk about Gavin Newsom, that snake oil salesman who doesn't want to defend 8 year old children. We'll get into all of that and I'll recap a little bit more of my weekend traveling with President Trump, being in the White House press pool going to this huge FIFA soccer match. I'm going to do my best to break down the soccer match. I am not a sports aficionado, which kind of puts me in a perfect position because I'm going to give you the link Lauren breakdown of the FIFA match, not the sports breakdown you might get on espn. So we have a whole host of topics. Let's about talk. So let's dive right in. So we first have to talk about my trip with President Trump in the White House press pool going to the FIFA game at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Now all I knew about the stadium is I think this is where Taylor Swift performs. I think this is where they have big concerts. But of course FIFA is huge. Okay. Soccer is probably the most global sport all across the world. They call it football. We don't call it football here. And I hope that never changes. But I ended up going to this game with President Trump and his team and the White House press pool. And at first we were told, you know, you might end up being in a tunnel during the game. You might not get to see much of the game. The press might be holding here. And I was fine with that. I'm so grateful to go along. Everything is part of the journey. Everything is a part of the story. But we get there, and we actually get to go down onto the field. And if you follow me on my personal social media, you saw this. We got to go down onto the field at FIFA to watch the game. So we're looking up at this huge Stadium, maybe 60,000 people, 100,000 people, I don't know. But it was a lot of people. We did not pay too much attention to the soccer game. We were there to cover the president. The president was accompanied by Attorney General Pam Bondi, some of his kids, Don Jr. His wife, the first lady, Melania Trump of the United States. She looked gorgeous and stunning. And so the soccer game ended up being so much fun. And I was able to sort of paint color on social media of what was happening, even if I don't have a huge knowledge about sports. But something that was really discussed online was the first ladies outfit. So she wore this incredible all white outfit with white glasses. And I'm going to break down exactly what the first lady wore to the FIFA soccer game, because she looked more stunning than anybody who's probably ever been to a soccer match. So here is what the first lady wore. Her jacket. Excuse me, I was having some chocolate before this. Her jacket was a Michael Kors collection Georgina pebble crepe blazer in black. Her skirt was a Michael Kors collection crepe sable slit pencil skirt in white. Her shirt was a Michael Kors collection white knit top. Her sunglasses were Christian Dior. There's a lot of debate about this online. Who made the glasses? Were they Chanel? Christian Dior? Up close, they were Christian Dior. Okay. The bag was an Hermes Kelly 35 handbag, blonde clemence with palladium hardware. And the shoes were, of course, white Manolo Blahniks. So that is what the first lady wore to the FIFA game. It was very hot. I imagine she was sweating. The president was probably sweating. But the best moment, the absolute best moment of the FIFA match that's gone totally viral is When President Trump went on stage to hand out the trophy with the president of FIFA and he ended up staying on stage and we have the clip, we'll put it up on the screen. President Trump stayed on stage as the guys are doing the trophy raise and the lift and jumping around. And it was just something so happy and so joyous and so fun. And President Trump is the type of guy, he's a chameleon who can go into any space. You know what I'm saying? His sport is golf, right? I don't think he's ever played soccer. Soccer is not really his Millie in his milieu too much. But he stayed up on stage and it was so much fun. Everybody was having a good time. Some folks online tried to ruin it and say people were booing and jeering. There's maybe like one or two guys I saw booing. Everyone else was just so happy and having fun. And one thing I really realized, because I talked about this a lot, but you see it when you're there in person. Sports is really the great equalizer, and it's a way to bring people together. Sort of like music. If you go to a concert, if you go to a sporting event, you might be from different parties, different ideological lines, different backgrounds, geographically, but you can all come together under one roof and one stadium and witness something like this and just put your differences aside for a few hours and have some fun. And that's what I loved so much about going to the FIFA match. And then of course, after the FIFA match, we went back to Air Force One, flew back to D.C. and that was the end of the weekend. And something that was also full circle for me and something I found kind of funny and ironic when I was in school growing up, right, I went out and I bought soccer cleats and I bought the outfit. And for some reason in my delusion, I said, I am going to try out for the soccer team. So I go and I try out for the soccer team. At my all boys school, I'm the only person who does not make the soccer team, which is, of course a little humiliating. Okay, Everybody gets to go over here and you're pulled aside and the coach is explaining that you are in fact not making the soccer team. And so years later, to get to go to this huge, iconic FIFA soccer match with the President of the United States and the first lady, who I love so much with the press pool and to get to be down there on the field, I really felt like it was sort of a God works in mysterious ways, sort of karma is my boyfriend kind of thing. Like, everything came around full circle. Getting to go to this FIFA match, and we had so much fun. It ended up that my phone had the best camera, so I ended up becoming sort of the personal photographer for everyone in the pool. I said, okay, I'm gonna get great pictures of everyone and then airdrop them and send them around. And we all bonded. We all had a great time, and I couldn't be more grateful to be include. And of course, Friday was so heavy and so somber, and it needed to be because of just the devastation in Texas. And then to go to the game. It was a way to wrap up the weekend. We all had fun, and everybody let loose. And the energy in there, it's just. You can feel the energy. It's so palpable. I know most of you have been to sporting events, so, you know, I'm the blonde gay guy over here. Like, oh, my God, there's so much energy. It was so fun and so raucous. We had a great time. It was incredible. And the folks at FIFA couldn't have been nicer. And I'm so grateful to. To get to travel with the press pool and relay back to. And the first lady looked incredible. And the overarching theme here, sports bring us together. Now we have to talk about the gift that keeps on giving this woman who is so uncouth and inarticulate from my home state, Jasmine Crockett. We have another edition of Crockett's Corner. If you're watching us on YouTube, we have this fun graphic that we made. We're going to start doing Crockett's Corner because it seems like every week Jasmine Crockett puts her foot in her mouth. She says something absolutely insane. And you can't even tell if it's Jasmine Crockett, because each time I see her, she has a different wig, different hair, different vocal intonation. The timbre of her voice changes. You know, like, sometimes Jasmine Crockett, she talks like this. She went to private school. She's highly educated. And then she goes on TikTok and she's like this mo fo crack a lack of jacket ain't mother. And it's like, totally what is going on here? Because she switches on a dime and she has 10,000 personalities. I don't know if Jasmine Crockett has multiple personality disorder, but there. There is something rotten in Denmark with this woman. So this past week, she went on television and said that Republicans want to bury their constituents, calling back those things.

That would have hopefully started to cool this planet down because they don't believe in science. The least that they could do is believe in helping American people. Unfortunately, we continue to see Republicans decide that they want to bury their constituents instead of actually doing everything that they can to make sure that they live amazing and full lives.

You know what I find so disgusting about this? And Jasmine Crockett trying to politicize this horrific devastation in Texas and our home state. What's so disgusting is I was at the roundtable with President Trump on Friday with Governor Greg Abbott, Senator Ted Cruz, First Lady Melania Trump, John Cornyn, Chip Roy, Beth Bandun, Pete Sessions. Everybody who's anybody from Texas was at this roundtable. Brooke Rollins, Kelly Lefler, you had Kristi Noem, of course, who was down there. You know who wasn't at this roundtable in Kerrville, Texas? Jasmine freaking Crockett. Okay? She allows her politics to get in the way of actually helping the people in her home state. So to go on television and say Republicans want to bury their constituents. Excuse me. These folks are working around the clock to find these bodies. They're doing search and recovery. The Coast Guard, they're not sleeping, they're not eating. They're working, working, working first responders. What does she continue to do, Jasmine Crockett? She doesn't go down to Texas to help. She doesn't go to the roundtable to show bipartisan support and that folks can come together across party lines in a crisis. In a crisis. What does Jasmine Crockett do? She goes on television and she wants to point fingers, to gain political points, to run for office, a higher office someday. She wants to use this to fundraise, to get donations in on her little website. So what the DNC wants to do. So shame on you, Jasmine Crockett, for saying Republicans want to bury their constituents and continuing to politicize this horrific flood. And it's counterproductive. It is counterproductive to search and rescue, search and recovery, and it's also counterproductive to these families who are grieving. Okay? When I was down there in Texas, what became very clear, and I spoke about this On Monday, episode 19 of Spot on, if you want to go listen to it. What I spoke about is a lot of these parents with kids at Camp mystic, in these camps, the girls who were 7, 8, 9 years old, their parents are in their 30s. They're children themselves. And they're trying to grapple with losses and finding their child and trying to find a body and to plan a funeral. And what are they going to do when they're devastated and they can't recover? And Jasmine Crockett's going on TV and a cushy television fancy studio with air conditioning and hair and makeup, trying to politicize it. So, Jasmine Crockett, you are disgusting. Now, Jasmine Crockett also tried to accuse our home state of Texas of being racist for wanting to do some congressional redistricting.
- [11:06]

Texas has always been found to be intentionally discriminatory. And so I want y' all to understand the make of my state. The state is a majority minority state. And what this legislature historically has done is what they plan to do again is to dilute the voices of people of color in order to make sure that they can get to where they're trying to go.

Jasmine Crockett is so full of crap. Okay, I am from Texas. I'm here to tell you, growing up, my circle of friends was a cornucopia of people from different backgrounds, different races, different religions, different skin colors. Okay? Texas is not a racist state. I don't know what Jasmine Crockett is doing. Trying to imply, really not imply, just say flat out that Texas is discriminatory. Texas is discriminatory. And she's supposed to be a congresswoman from Texas. And what's so hypocritical is that Jasmine Crockett is a black woman, okay? She is a woman of color. And she says that the people of Texas are discriminatory and racist. If they're so racist, then why are you a high profile congresswoman from the state of Texas? That's clearly not tracking. Okay, what's not clicking, sweetheart? If Texas is racist and discriminatory, why are you a black woman at one of the heights of American politics being from Texas? Okay, so go back to the drawing board on that one, Jasmine Crockett. So, no, Texas is not an inherently racist state. We welcome so many people. A lot of these red states, Texas, Tennessee, Florida, Arizona is also welcoming a lot of people, though Arizona is a little more purple. So many red states are welcoming folks who are fleeing California, New York, and so many of them are minorities. There are minorities fleeing these failing blue cities like Chicago as well and moving to Texas and Florida in these states. So to say that we're inherently racist when we're welcoming people with open arms and we're building a booming, strong economy in Texas. Who the hell are you? Jasmine Crockett? But to circle back, okay, to call out the hypocrisy, if Texas is so racist, okay, why are you a black woman, a congresswoman From Texas. Okay, clearly you're not all that smart. You're not in Mensa. You need to put down. Oh, okay. I don't want to say too much. I don't. Jazzlyn Crockett. Good luck to you, sweetheart. We will see you soon. When elites tell you what's right and who's wrong, it's rarely about truth. It's about control. They twist facts to protect their own.

Instead, their app and website show how every issue is covered across the political spectrum. You'll see each source's bias, who benefits from their version of the truth, and what stories are being ignored altogether. Take the recent arrest of a Pulitzer winning Washington Post executive.

There's a time and a plate for.

Gavin Newsom
A filet of fish, but breakfast is for sausage biscuits.
- [14:24]
Link Lauren
McDonald's breakfast comes first. Now we have to talk about this vampire, Gavin Newsom. He's a snake oil salesman. He's greasy. He's a con man. He's a con artist. We all know this by now, okay? Gavin Newsome. He can't even call his wife his wife. He calls her his partner. That's the type of man that he is, okay? He's a little beta male who cares more about hair gel than actually getting things done in his home state. And taking a tough stance. Well, he decided on his little podcast rehabilitation tour, which I think from the way his eyes look so bloodshot, he might need a different kind of rehabilitation tour, but nonetheless, that's a non sequitur. Gavin Newsom, on his little podcast rehab tour, he goes on Sean Ryan, and he cannot answer definitively whether an 8 year old should be able to have transgender procedures. What about for your values? I mean, is eight years old too young?
- [15:18]
Guest Speaker
Yeah, I mean, look, I, I, now that I have a nine year old, just became nine. Come on, man. I get it. So those are legit. You know, it's. It's interesting, just the issue of age. I haven't. It's interesting as I. And as someone that's been so focused on, on equality, broadly LGBT rights, particularly gay marriage, the trans issue for me is also novel. It's. It's. It's. Over the last few years, I'm trying to understand as much as anyone else. Whole pronoun thing, trying to understand all of that. Well, you know, that was like, the hell. I mean, all that stuff, I get it.
- [16:03]
Link Lauren
This.
- [16:03]
Guest Speaker
All this stuff started to collapse on us.
- [16:05]
Link Lauren
It is a yes or no question. There is no wiggle room, okay? If someone asks you, do you want men in women's sports and in women's soccer rooms, the answer should be no. Gavin Newsom, he can't say that. If someone asks you, should an 8 year old be allowed to have transition procedures and cross sex hormones, the answer should be no. There should be no wiggle room. As a father, as a husband, what the hell is Gavin Newsom doing? And then watching these interviews with Gavin Newsom, the man talks with his hands more than I do, which is tough. That is a tough hill to climb. Gavin Newsom talks with his hands so much, he's like Bob Fosse when he walks into the room. These vagabond shoes, that's Gavin Newsom. He's like the new Tim Walls. I used to call Tim Walls Mr. Jazz Hands. I coined that term, okay? Because he walks out on stage like this. Gavin Newsom, he's the new Mr. Jazz Hands. He looks like he's an air traffic controller. Like, I don't know what Gavin Newsom is doing with his hands, but it's creepy and it needs to be toned down, okay? Sit on your hands. Maybe Gavin Newsom could get the furry handcuffs out of his bedside table the next time he does an interview and keep his hands down here, but no Gavin Newsom. The fact that he can't definitively answer whether or not an 8 year old should be allowed to have cross sex hormones and transition their gender is disgusting, okay? And you know, he's full of crap, too, because Gavin Newsom has daughters. If Gavin Newsom's daughter, let's say, had to compete against a man on her sports team, they would be raising hell, okay? If he found out his daughter had to share a locker room with a man like the folks did with Leah Thomas, Paula Scanlon, and Riley Gaines, he would be raising hell. But because it's so ambiguous and esoteric and it's not really affecting his household, he's allowed to go out there and say what he wants to say. And also, a lot of his top Democratic donors and a lot of the medical lobby, they're pushing, pushing, pushing to keep these transition procedures for kids and transgender everything and men and women's sports. So Gavin Newsom, he can't come out and take a definitive stance, but it is really creepy for someone who's been in public life so long and for someone who's a grown ass man to not be able to answer yes or no question. So shame on you, Gavin Newsom. I think you're pretty disgusting. The fact that you can't condemn 8 year olds being put on hormones, right? If someone's not old enough to drive, to vote, to buy a gun, to buy a home, to drink, all of the above, they shouldn't be allowed to make a life altering decision. But there are radical disgusting doctors out there who come along and they push the parents into these things. And the parents are told, if you don't help your kid, if you don't allow the kid to transition, oh, the worst things in the world could happen. So they go along with it and it's disgusting. And some of these kids end up regretting it. Some of them are permanently sterilized. We won't get too graphic into it, but the fact that Gavin Newsom can't answer the question definitively is absolutely gross. Now continuing our discussion of unbearable disgusting people who just won't go away, we have to talk about Joy Reid, the disgraced MSNBC host. It's hard to get fired from msnbc, okay? It's tough to get fired from MSNBC because you're already down in the dregs of suspension, society in journalism in the doldrums. But Joy Reid, she couldn't even keep her job at msnbc and now she's still blaming President Trump for all the issues on earth.
- [19:08]
Joy Reid
So I'm nervous. I think we're coming to a point where Trump could declare a national emergency. We don't know if we're going to have free and fair elections anymore. I think poor people are going to suffer horribly. I think rural people are going to suffer horribly. I think people are going to die from a needless disease and illness and I think they won't fully understand why. And you've seen the floods in Texas. There'll be more of that and it's going to be bad.
- [19:34]
Link Lauren
So Joy Reid, like Jasmine Crockett, like these folks on the left, they have their talking points. These folks in Texas are in a crisis and she continues to politicize it, okay? If Joy Reid, Jasmine Crockett and all these leftists would go down to Texas, like I was there on Friday and see the utter devastation, if they would drive through Kerrville and see families embracing each other in tears on the side of the road because they just got bad news. They would have a different perspective. So, Joy Reid, you're disgusting. I want to bring up something she said. She said this is a national emergency. She spoke about national emergency, okay? The only national emergency I see is her dye job in her hair, okay? I don't know what's going on with her. She wants to have my hair. She wants to be blonde and stunning. But, Joy Reid, what the hell? That's the only national emergency I saw. And then she also says people are going to die and they're going to be unhealthy and have all these health crises. The Make America Healthy Again movement is doing better than anyone ever expected. We're getting food dyes out, artificial gross chemicals out of our food. All these huge food companies are working to make Americans healthier. I think at the end of this four years, people are going to be healthier than when President Trump came into office. So, Joy Reid, whatever is reality, she does the opposite. And she goes on and she speaks it, but unfortunately for her, not many people are listening. In fact, I think we might be the only ones picking apart these little podcasts she's doing and discussing them. So, Joy Reid. And she refuses to go away. She continues her descent into absurdity because she is absurd. And the fact that she is blaming President Trump for everything, okay? He's supposed to control every national disaster. He's supposed to control the fact that Americans are unhealthier than ever before in this country. But that's now being changed. Why is that his fault? Right? He just got back in office six months ago. And so, Joy Reid, I think it's a good thing she was fired from msnbc. The fact that they even have some standards, they even have some substandards, you know what I'm saying? The bar is low, okay? The bar is like in the seventh ring of hell, but they still have a bar nonetheless. But, Joy Reid, we wish you well, and we'll be keeping tabs on you. We'll be keeping tabs on you. I think you should put down the liquor, in my opinion, and start kind of coming to reality. Okay? Come back to reality, Joy Reid. But I think what's happened, and I see this all the time with folks like Joy Reid, they're so used to being in mainstream media, they now have to go into podcasting and independent media like, I'm in and so many other folks are in, but they don't really have the chops they can't hack it in independent media because they're used to having this huge staff and being on TV and all of that, and they sort of just go more niche and more radical and crazy. Instead of coming to the middle after being fired from msnbc, which is what she should have done, she's now just double downing on being a radical leftist who wants to blame everything on President Trump and say that everyone's gonna die and we're gonna have famine and locust. Okay? So, Joy Reid, we wish you well. Now. Someone who keeps putting her foot in her mouth. Every time she opens her mouth, it's cringe, it's bizarre. I don't know what world she's living in. We have to talk about Charlize Theron. If you remember, Charlize Theron went on Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast recently. She said a whole bunch of nonsense. Basically, she doesn't need a man. She doesn't want a man. She'd rather raise her transgender kids all by her lonesome in her big old mansion in Hollywood. Okay. But now she has decided that basically Hollywood is still sexist because they don't want to continue producing a ton of action films with women. Let me read you a little bit about what's going on here. So Charlize Theron, she's criticized the film industry for being reluctant to support female led action films. And she said all of this in an interview with the New York Times. So of course, they were gobbling it up like, you know, turkey on Thanksgiving. So then Theron and fellow actress Uma Thurman spoke to the outlet about the challenges women face in the genre as they promote their new Netflix superhero sequel, the Old Guard two. Now, I have no idea what the hell the Old Guard two two is. I don't know if there was an Old Guard one, so clearly wasn't that much of a hit. But it sounds like there are two women in action films. Charlize Theron and Uma Thurman. They're promoting an action film with Netflix and they're going out there and saying Hollywood doesn't want to do action films for women. You're so full of crap, Charlize Theron. So full of crap. Okay, so Theron said that securing the lead roles in action films is much more challenging for women because Hollywood viewed these films as more of a risk. Charlize Theron said that's known. Action films with female leads don't get greenlit as much as the ones with male leads. I think the thing that always frustrates me is the fact that guys will get a free ride. Now let me explain this to you, right? Charlize Theron, she's been in huge action films. She's been in Mad Fury Road, Fast and Furious. She's also been in the Atomic Blonde film, which didn't do that well. It was a female led action film, okay, about the Berlin Wall. I believe they're in Europe. It had a great soundtrack. The movie didn't do that well and it didn't get a sequel. It still doesn't have a sequel. So she can CR all she wants. If the movies aren't doing that great, they're not going to continue getting the funding. It doesn't mean everybody is racist and sexist and hates you And Charlize Theron, right? You're worth what, $200 million? 200, $300 million. Allegedly. If you wanted to promote up and coming women and do action films, you fund it, you do the funding yourself. Go find one other investor. Reese Witherspoon has a whole production company and produces films and licensed books that she finds, you know, passionate and she finds that she loves. So why don't you go option some IP and do your own film? Charlize Theron. But she wants to continue playing the victim card even though she's worth hundreds of millions of dollars and has done a ton of action films. And the thing that I will say is this, when it comes to action films, I feel like so much of the audience is women. And sometimes women and gays would rather see a hot, hunky guy running and flipping through the air and swerving around shirtless in a fast car. Then they would like to see a woman. I think there have been big female led action films, but guess what? James Bond. You know what? Sue me. James Bond is a guy. Spider Man. It's Spider man, not Spider Woman, okay? Batman. It's Batman, not Batwoman. So cry me a river, okay? Go create some new films. You've got hundreds of millions of dollars. You can't blame everything on misogyny or racism when you don't get your way. And the fact is, Charlize, there, and I'm looking at this list, you've been in a ton of films. Some of them you were the lead. It was an action film and it flopped. So we wish you well, Charlize Theron. But this is that theme in Hollywood where if something goes wrong, they just blame it on misogyny, racism. Everyone sucks. Americans are not inherently racist, they're not inherently sexist. Misogynist none of the above. Okay, maybe the movies just weren't that great. Go create a good movie and people were will turn out and see it. I remember they did a remake of Charlie's Angels a few years ago. I believe it was with Kristen Stewart and some other folks. The movie did terribly. It did so bad. That's not because people are sexist. I think the script was just terrible and the movie was edited in a terrible way. So unless you have good movies, okay, people aren't gonna go see them. It's not that people are racist and sexist, but this is what they did with Kamala Harris. I remember in the election. Kamala Harris. If you criticized her, gave her even the slightest bit of criticism, you're racist, you're sexist because she's a woman and she's knocking down barriers. No, she's an utter calamity and she's terrible. Okay? Not everything has to do with race and gender. Sometimes people can be based and judged off of merit like these films. So Charlize Theron, go back to the drawing board, maybe listen to some of my advice here, listen to little ol link here and go finance your own action films if that's something you're passionate about. We need to make America healthy again. And that starts with what we put in our own bodies. I'm constantly on the move, working, traveling, and I need a snack that fuels my body, not poisons it. Paleo Valley's 100% grass fed beef sticks are clean, high quality and free from the chemical junk so many other brands sneak in. Most healthy beef sticks at big box stores. They're loaded with preservatives like citric and lactic acid, not Paleo Valley. They use old school fermentation to keep their sticks fresh. No chemicals, just real food. That fermentation also supports gut health, which is something we all need to prioritize. We deserve better than ultra processed junk pushed by the same industries making us sick.

Now. Wouldn't be an episode of Spot on with link Lauren if we didn't talk about the Duke and Duchess of Scamlot, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Okay, they continue to call themselves the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. They are queen clinging to those titles like a clingy ex boyfriend or a clingy ex girlfriend. Okay? That's what they're doing here. To tell you I've spent more time in Sussex than they have. I went to Sussex. I saw, I believe it was the palace, the pavilion. I went to the beach. The beach is all rocks. But I've spent more time in Sussex than these two little hucksters who don't even want to recognize Sussex Day or their own community. And they continue to accuse basically the British folks of being racist and terrible and they don't feel safe and boo hoo, Mary Lou hoo. Okay, this is what's interesting, though. A story that has been going around royal circles the past few days. King Charles and Prince Harry's aides were spotted for a secret meeting last week. And what is the strongest signal yet that both camps are ready to put an end to their year's long feud? Now, this meeting comes after Prince Harry's BBC interview where he talks about wanting some reconciliation.

I would love reconciliation with my family. I've always, I've, you know, there's no point in continuing to fight anymore. As I said, life is precious. I don't know how much longer my father has, you know, he, he, he won't speak to me because of this security stuff, but it would be nice to. It would nice be nice to reconcile.

This is so rich coming from Prince Harry. It's like when a guy cheats on you, makes your life a living hell, and then he comes back a year later, he's like, baby, I'm so sorry. Oh, just let all of that go. Let it all go. Not that I've been there before, but Prince Harry, okay, he did a book spare where he trashed his family. He spoke about intimate personal arguments with his own brother, the future King of England. Okay, he did a sit down with Oprah, where he and his wife accused the royal family of racism and talking about their child's skin color with no evidence, no basis in reality. They then did, I believe, a six part Netflix docu series. They've continued to use the family time and time again for fame, fortune and a couple of clicks, okay? And viewers on their silly little reality shows. So it's rich coming from Prince Harry to say now he wants to have all this reconciliation. You're the one who turned around and screwed your family over, okay? You could have sat there in the castle eating crumpets and scones and going to ribbon cuttings and things would have been hunky dory. But Prince Harry, this is what you did. This is what you did. And maybe it's because you're allegedly on psychedelics, maybe it's because you allowed this washed up wannabe D list Hollywood actress to come in and take a wrecking ball to your family. You allowed that to happen, okay? Meghan Markle, she's culpable. But you, as a little beta male, allowed a woman with those scrawny little legs to come in and tear your family apart and your familial relationships with your brother. Screw you, Prince Harry. So to come along now and say you want reconciliation is just rich. I think he wants reconciliation because their projects here in the States aren't doing that well. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, now that they've been out of the royal family for five years, they're having a hard time generating the volume and velocity of press that they so desire because they're bottomless pits who need constant fame and attention. So let me read you a little bit more about this summit, okay? The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's reps, Meredith Maines and Leah Maguire, were seen sitting down for secret talks with Tobin Andrea, the monarch's communication secretary, the Daily Mail reported. So you've got folks from King Charles camp meeting up with Harry and Meghan's camp to sit and talk. Okay? Now this is a quote from the article. There's a long road ahead, but a channel of communication is now open for the first time in years, a source told the outlet. There is no formal agenda, just casual drinks. There were things both sides wanted to talk about. Now, the informal. The informal meeting took place at the Royal Overseas League, a private member's club just minutes from Clarence House. And the trio initially convened on the club's balcony before moving inside for privacy. Here's what I think is really going on. I think they probably texted each other and said you want to get together for drinks and vent about these two ridiculous hucksters in California who want to sell jams, jellies and dog biscuits. I don't think it's much deeper than that. I think they thought, okay, we're in the same city. Let's get together. Almost like a therapy session. Raise your hand if you've been victimized by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Aye, aye, aye. I have been victimized. And, you know, Harry and Meghan can't keep their staff. So, of course the staff wants to get together and vent. And they'd probably rather work for King Charles because he's real royalty. The staff is probably angling to get back into the monarchy and to work in the palace instead of working with these two little hucksters who have nothing going on. And to say it once again, continue to push jams, jellies and dog biscuits. So I think that's really what the summit was. Let's get together. Let's have drinks. From what I've heard, and I'm sure you guys have heard the same things, Prince William has no intention of really reconciling with his brother. They're fine. They're cordial. William's focused on his kids, his wife's health, his public royal engagements and duties, and the fact that he's going to step into his role as the King someday. Okay, that is a weight he carries on his shoulders. And Catherine, the Princess of Wales, does as well. And so Prince Harry, he can go do what he wants, kick up dirt in California. William is focused. And, in fact, I think they should be stripped of their titles. Harry and Meghan, they should not be able to call themselves the Duke and Duchess of Sussex anymore. If you've spent about five hours in Sussex and you're the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, shame on you. Imagine if I'm, you know, the mayor of Fairview and I've spent five hours in Fairview. Something's not clicking, right? Something's not clicking. If you're royalty and you're the Duke and Duchess of some county of Sussex, you should probably go and show up in Sussex. So I think it's interesting. Prince Harry wants reconciliation. I'm sure he loves that the press is saying there could be reconciliation. But I don't even think King Charles or William would trust Prince Harry to have a private conversation, because Harry goes and repeats everything. Everything ends up in the Daily Mail or People magazine. Their go to. Right? Everything ends up out in the press, in a book, in a docu series. Everything is up for public consumption because Harry and Meghan ostensibly have become wannabe Kardashian reality stars. So, Harry and Meghan, I don't see a lot of reconciliation happening. Of course, if King Charles passes away, the day he passes passes away, maybe he and his brother will rekindle and reconnect, but I am not seeing it. Well, my friends, that concludes this episode of Spot on with Link. Lauren. I will be back in the studio on Monday, and we might have a new background. Might be Monday, might be Wednesday, but we're working on a new background. We heard you guys loud and clear. Okay. The blue wall. You weren't feeling the blue wall. You said it's a little cold, it's a little dark, it's a little dry. We need something more fun. So we're working on a new background for you guys because I work for you and I could not be more excited. We'll also have a little bonus segment out on Friday on YouTube discussing some of this body positivity stuff we're seeing with airlines and flights and some of these viral videos. So be sure to come back Friday for that. Have an amazing rest of the week. Kiss your loved ones, hug your loved ones. And if you live alone and don't have many loved ones, I'm thinking of you. And I love you, too. So I'll see you on the next one. Bye.
