Speaker 1: Listen. No one's under any delusion that what we're doing
Speaker 1: is illegal. We know it's a crime. That's not the question.
Speaker 1: The question is, is the juice work the squeeze all
Speaker 1: we're gonna get away with it if it hits the fan?
Speaker 1: Are you gonna get my back? You're gonna put money
Speaker 1: on my books. You're gonna help me, not if it
Speaker 1: go down. You know if I stick to the script,
Speaker 1: is you're gonna stick to the script. Listen to me,
Speaker 1: real simple, run to play, trust the process, shut your mouth,
Speaker 1: understand the assignment. That's all you gotta do. You let
Speaker 1: the bosses figure out what we're doing. If you're a
Speaker 1: foot soldier, just run the play. If you got issues,
Speaker 1: you got problems with the play, let me tell you
Speaker 1: where the door is. If you're gonna you're gonna address
Speaker 1: your problems. As long as you address them in here.
Speaker 1: I mean, you might get replayed, but you don't tell
Speaker 1: nobody outside this door. If you got issues, and when
Speaker 1: the popo come and ask questions, you know the script,
Speaker 1: or at least you post to know the script. Listen,
Speaker 1: run to play, understand the assignment. Hey, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And at the end, of the day. Listen,
Speaker 1: don't hate the player, hate the game. Let me tell
Speaker 1: you something. The Republicans understood the assignment. Don't hate the player,
Speaker 1: hate the game. We got two things. We gotta discussing
Speaker 1: this one because good god, these boys understood the assignment.
Speaker 1: Cood politics, y'all. What's up, y'all? This was a very
Speaker 1: difficult show to put together because of just there's a
Speaker 1: lot of emotional investment in this. As y'all know, I
Speaker 1: am not. This ain't a hot take type show. This
Speaker 1: ain't a breaking news type show. This is a yo,
Speaker 1: what the hell is happening type show. I just want
Speaker 1: to help you understand what the hell is happening. I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm glad I waited because I was gonna
Speaker 1: do a January six show by itself, and then the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court got all the smoke it wanted, y'all. I
Speaker 1: don't know if y'all remember, like I think there was
Speaker 1: like episode seventeen and I said, Supreme Court wants all
Speaker 1: the smoke. They're gonna take on guns, They're gonna take
Speaker 1: on abortion. I told you this was gonna happen. Well,
Speaker 1: it's not like I was the only one that said this.
Speaker 1: Was gonna happen. And then I told you about Mitch
Speaker 1: McConnell's play. Play was judges the whole time to play
Speaker 1: with judges. And I told you all during when those
Speaker 1: documents leaked over the Supreme Court that here's the setup.
Speaker 1: Either the Republicans gonna get the greatest three sixty double
Speaker 1: pump reverse dunk of our lifetime by actually overturning Roe v. Wade.
Speaker 1: Like if they do that, I'm like, Yo, They're gonna
Speaker 1: go down in history books. They this is this is
Speaker 1: the Jordan flu game. Like it's you this Kobe scoring
Speaker 1: eighty if you, if you, if you're a Republican. And
Speaker 1: as someone so eloquently stated in my TikTok comment sections,
Speaker 1: it's also easy to score when no one's playing defense.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, your certification, Nikki, you can like retire now.
Speaker 1: If you're a Democrat. It's like, fam, has anyone ever
Speaker 1: fumbled this bad? Like, remember you'll remember it's talking about this.
Speaker 1: I was like, Yo, this is gonna be. This is
Speaker 1: gonna be the same event. Is gonna be the greatest
Speaker 1: dunk and the greatest fumble. I keep saying to myself,
Speaker 1: you got a Democrat majority I'm not you see how
Speaker 1: I'm not saying the left because this ain't really the left.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, like who in charges the
Speaker 1: moderate Republicans who are like kind of lightweight, right, there's
Speaker 1: there's still we have still two very pro capital you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying parties. They just it's not now
Speaker 1: a family the Democrats, right, the easiest lay up. I'm like,
Speaker 1: this was y'all. They didn't clear the lane for you,
Speaker 1: like you, they didn't lower the rim for you. All
Speaker 1: you had to do was legalized marijuana. This was a
Speaker 1: that's a free throw. This is like and and and
Speaker 1: like okay, legalized marijuana and defend your fifty point lead,
Speaker 1: big out. Okay, So a few years I'm doing a
Speaker 1: lot of basketball things because, like I need you to
Speaker 1: understand how egregious this mug is from a Again, I'm
Speaker 1: not even talking about specific yet. I'm talking about just
Speaker 1: the the pol ticks of it all. Okay, I'll get
Speaker 1: it to the specifics a little later. But dog, when
Speaker 1: Golden State was playing i think their first or second
Speaker 1: NBA Finals against Cleveland and Lebron James, Golden State was
Speaker 1: up three to one and you win all you need.
Speaker 1: It's best of seven. If you don't know basketball, the
Speaker 1: NBA Finals are the best of seven. So if you
Speaker 1: get to four games immediately, then it's over because you
Speaker 1: can't you understand it is only before to three. So
Speaker 1: if you have, if you up three games to one,
Speaker 1: all you do is win one more game. That's your
Speaker 1: It's in the bag. It's over. Golden State was up
Speaker 1: three to one and blew it. Lebron and Cleveland and them.
Speaker 1: They won four games straight in the finals, and and
Speaker 1: that's never happened. No one's ever blown a three one
Speaker 1: lead in the finals. It was almost like, is this rigged?
Speaker 1: Like how did y'all let that? How do you blow
Speaker 1: a three one league? So I'm looking at the Democrats,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, how you blow this league? You had
Speaker 1: a president? You following the president? Now, now listen, far
Speaker 1: be it from me to get my Dunning Krueger on
Speaker 1: you know Dunning Krueger Head asked, I'm saying this clearly
Speaker 1: from a podcasting booth in Boyle Heights, California. You know
Speaker 1: East l A, Los Angeles, Boyle Heights neighborhood. What do
Speaker 1: I know? I ain't ever ran from no office. I
Speaker 1: ain't nothing but a voting citizen who attempts to participate
Speaker 1: in lobbying, grassroots organizing, and understanding geopolitics. So don't let
Speaker 1: me Dunning Krueger this, I'm saying, no, you following Donald Trump, who,
Speaker 1: which is the other part of this show, let an
Speaker 1: insurrection on a proven lie where even his own squad
Speaker 1: was trying to tell him, Fam you tripping, We're gonna
Speaker 1: run to play for you. But Big, if you say this,
Speaker 1: we all leave it. If you do this, we all
Speaker 1: leave it. You're gonna run an empty office. And and
Speaker 1: again like the level of gangster that these people have
Speaker 1: in the sense that when it came down to it,
Speaker 1: they sing it. Remember I talked about a long time ago.
Speaker 1: I asked the homie Bamboo, Hey, how many years you
Speaker 1: gotta throw the person before they start snitching? And it's
Speaker 1: like I probably tend because you could do You could
Speaker 1: do one year. That's a vacation. You could do two years,
Speaker 1: maybe five if you really with the ship, you could
Speaker 1: do five, ten years, twenty years. Put somebody in prison
Speaker 1: like that. And I'm talking hardcore gangsters. I'm talking niggas
Speaker 1: that just institutionalized. You just learned how to put fear
Speaker 1: and emotions like killed that part of them as teenagers
Speaker 1: that are like, no, we're murderous now of course, as
Speaker 1: a generation before me that are like I'll do I'll
Speaker 1: do five life. I'm never telling I'm not talking about them.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about your person who feel like I may
Speaker 1: have a life after this ten years, somebody gonna turn
Speaker 1: some evidence the little white boys trying to overturn, overturn
Speaker 1: a duly elected official. Do you think they're gonna do
Speaker 1: time for you? I would get into this later, but
Speaker 1: the nick is called Trump for partners. Trump ain't part
Speaker 1: not near one of them. And they was like, okay,
Speaker 1: we see how it is. Committee, let's talk. You ain't
Speaker 1: got that back to that, got yours? You know what's right? So, uh,
Speaker 1: you're following this. You got a whole party, half of
Speaker 1: the party's brain been cooked by Q and on you
Speaker 1: then and if you and if you and if you're
Speaker 1: a democrat like you know you the consolation prize, Like
Speaker 1: all you had to be was a functioning adult. I
Speaker 1: mean you got a three one lead big dog like
Speaker 1: this is you did? Did you're mark the person? You
Speaker 1: trying and jump in metaphors, but the person you're trying
Speaker 1: to kill. I don't know. If y'all watch Barry Do
Speaker 1: y'all watch Berry Berry one of the funniest shows. I'm
Speaker 1: hip to Bury where anyway it's It's it's Bill Hayter.
Speaker 1: He supposed to be this assassin and there's just one
Speaker 1: more where he supposed to be killing this dude. But
Speaker 1: the people that hired him are telling him not to shoot.
Speaker 1: But he looking at the guy. The dude is stretching,
Speaker 1: doing like all out in the open, not paying attention
Speaker 1: in broad daylight, standing by his car, read the paper,
Speaker 1: stretching his arms. He's just like, oh my god, this
Speaker 1: shot can't be any clearer. I could kill this guy
Speaker 1: right now. Like this your situation. You had an open like,
Speaker 1: you had a majority, you had a majority in the Congress,
Speaker 1: you got a majority in the Senate. You got a
Speaker 1: colored woman as your vice. This is a layup. How
Speaker 1: you finna get mopped upcoming mid term? Who got any sense?
Speaker 1: Who's looking at what happened? And it's like, oh you
Speaker 1: finniget moped And the answer they've given you is, well,
Speaker 1: we had a lot to fix. We had a lot
Speaker 1: of messages that Trump and old Mitch McConnell made. So
Speaker 1: I need you all to go out and vote and
Speaker 1: let your voices like Nigga, we went out and voted.
Speaker 1: That got you in place. Now you blew a three one,
Speaker 1: big dog. How did you throw? How in the how
Speaker 1: do you blow a lead like this? I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you exactly how. But you can't hate the player. You
Speaker 1: gotta hate the game. And let me tell you what
Speaker 1: the game is, single issue voters. Let's take a break.
Speaker 1: All right, we're back. So I bring up single issue
Speaker 1: voters for this because I can tell you not only
Speaker 1: anecdotetally or personally, go back and look at any sort
Speaker 1: of polls, statistical data taking about Republican electorate during the
Speaker 1: time Trump was running for president, and their answer was
Speaker 1: very simple. We're not very simple. Actually their answer was
Speaker 1: anything but simple, but it was this, I just can't
Speaker 1: get over the abortion thing. I know Trump is weird,
Speaker 1: I know he's got problems, I know he's I don't
Speaker 1: agree with anything he stands for. I just can't. I
Speaker 1: can't get myself to vote for someone who would be
Speaker 1: pro abortion. That was that was the play, and so
Speaker 1: all Trump had to do or any Republican leader for
Speaker 1: that matter is hit that button, hit the Roe v Wade.
Speaker 1: But because as my man Robert Evans said very eloquently,
Speaker 1: and it's the point, and it was, and it was
Speaker 1: kind of like, hey man, you just revealed the next
Speaker 1: episode is you really ain't gotta know how to govern.
Speaker 1: You don't have to do things in any in the
Speaker 1: best interests of even the people voting for you. It
Speaker 1: don't matter hit the right button because there's something that
Speaker 1: is a deal breaker for them, that's a nonstarter, and
Speaker 1: that nonstarter will make you will override every possible nuance,
Speaker 1: every possible complication. You're not gonna think about none of
Speaker 1: it because it's one thing matters. And this here isn't
Speaker 1: even the dispeople that think like that. If you're just
Speaker 1: like listen, dude, like this is the hill I'll die
Speaker 1: on because this particular hill flows from that mountaintop flows
Speaker 1: all the other issues. Like if I get this wrong,
Speaker 1: then how can I trust you on anything else? So
Speaker 1: there are I understand when we have some non negotiables.
Speaker 1: I I get it. I'm talking about the political play though.
Speaker 1: Now listen, I think in some ways I'm a West
Speaker 1: Coast single intrat voter. I like I gonna put myself
Speaker 1: on the line here. Listen, you will never hear me
Speaker 1: slander or West Coast artists. I'm just not gonna do it.
Speaker 1: Like I don't like them all. Maybe I don't. But
Speaker 1: if he's from the coast, I'm a ride for you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Like, maybe I'll talk, maybe I'll
Speaker 1: talk about Homie, you know, off Mike, but you ain't
Speaker 1: gonna ever hear me this. Nobody from the West. Not no, no,
Speaker 1: not not not he from the coast. I'm just look,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say when it comes to hip hop, I'm
Speaker 1: a single issue voter West Coast. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And listen, you think I don't know how absurd that is.
Speaker 1: I know that's absurd. That don't mean I don't like
Speaker 1: nobody else. That just means West Coast on mine l
Speaker 1: a oh my, It's just it is. I E. S
Speaker 1: G V L A Valley Fox Lord all the way
Speaker 1: up to the Bay West West. I know, single issue voter.
Speaker 1: So if you can lock us in and as long
Speaker 1: as you stick to the plan, as long as you
Speaker 1: step to the script, get whatever you need done, and
Speaker 1: you can get away with whatever you won't, So let's
Speaker 1: talk about the insurrection. So January six Committee, if you
Speaker 1: don't understand, this is a probe just to be like, Okay,
Speaker 1: what the hell happened and how responsible directly is former
Speaker 1: President Trump for the sieging of the capital on January six.
Speaker 1: This is not a criminal investigation. This is to recommend
Speaker 1: whether we should have a criminal investigation or not. So
Speaker 1: remember that this ain't the thing yet. This is to
Speaker 1: see if there could be a thing. And all they
Speaker 1: can do again is recommend. Now the play by player
Speaker 1: this there's way too many moving parts for a thirty
Speaker 1: minute podcast for me to try to go play by play,
Speaker 1: but I can give you an overview of what I
Speaker 1: mean by These people understood the assignment and they ran
Speaker 1: to play. And that's what made That's what makes this
Speaker 1: very clear to me, is these white boys understood the
Speaker 1: game so much so that they knew when to abandon ship.
Speaker 1: And that's this was really blowing my mind. Is yeah,
Speaker 1: they they had their line. You have a bunch of
Speaker 1: different advisors, attorneys, people behind the scenes that don't ever
Speaker 1: get on camera. And if there's one thing that you
Speaker 1: have to understand about how the government works is the
Speaker 1: dude on camera is not the one you gotta worry about,
Speaker 1: you know. We always saw yea, it's the quiet ones.
Speaker 1: You gotta watch what I'm saying. It's not the dude
Speaker 1: on camera. You feel me, that's just the face, you know.
Speaker 1: It's people behind the scenes that actually make the stuff
Speaker 1: go down, make the stuff click, make the stuff work.
Speaker 1: And if them fools roll out, you got nothing right.
Speaker 1: And for a long time, nobody testified, nobody was willing
Speaker 1: to talk. And I was really impressed by they gett
Speaker 1: it by being like, I'm not gonna talk, and why
Speaker 1: why were not willing to talk? And here's my here's
Speaker 1: my thought is because they was counting on Trump to
Speaker 1: pardner this crow talk about like, man, it's thirty different
Speaker 1: people called that boy for pardons. They thought, I told
Speaker 1: you this right for the set, right for the bus.
Speaker 1: They thought, Yo, if we ride for this man, because
Speaker 1: the gamble is he's gonna be president again, So yo,
Speaker 1: if we ride for him, he gonna remember that because
Speaker 1: that's how Trump works. Trump works by strictly loyalty and
Speaker 1: incompetence is loyalty. Go out there and run the play.
Speaker 1: That's all that matters for him. Go run to play.
Speaker 1: So the play was and this was fresh out of
Speaker 1: his mouth. He looking at the Justice Department, very all
Speaker 1: of the assistant district attorneys, everybody needs like listen, all
Speaker 1: you have to say is something was corrupt, something was
Speaker 1: a right, and we will do the rest. We as
Speaker 1: in me and the Republican Party, We'll do the rest.
Speaker 1: All you got to do is confirmed that something may right.
Speaker 1: And they all look to him, going, you lost, because
Speaker 1: I'm not feeling there's we have no fam, we have
Speaker 1: no evidence of what you're saying happened. But he still
Speaker 1: got his squad, who one of the lawyers called the
Speaker 1: people that were like, they were like, no, this fool's gone,
Speaker 1: you Tripp, and he called them the normal team. Normal
Speaker 1: you got Jeff rose And testified on Thursday that the
Speaker 1: Justice Department held firm against the political pressure to take
Speaker 1: sides in the election results. Rosen said that he told
Speaker 1: Trump that the Department could not seize voting machines from
Speaker 1: states because it was nothing wrong with the machines naked.
Speaker 1: There's you fam. Now, it's not like I trust these
Speaker 1: white boys like they could be like hey, I mean,
Speaker 1: I tried to tell him, I mean, we tried to
Speaker 1: tell him, I look, I wasn't it. I mean, ire like, okay, fam,
Speaker 1: you might be you might be cutting the real thick
Speaker 1: out here, singing like a bird because you thought, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying this on the abandoned ship tip.
Speaker 1: I don't know. You might be saving your own booty. Maybe.
Speaker 1: All I know is they like, look, man, We tried
Speaker 1: to tell him, Now, look, they understand the assignment. You
Speaker 1: don't go say that out loud. You don't go say
Speaker 1: that to the public. You say it to him. My dude,
Speaker 1: we can't go do this like there's famin, there's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong with it. I don't and said that. Trump kept
Speaker 1: getting agitated, and in three days before the riot, Trump
Speaker 1: was presented this idea of replacing active Attorney General Jeff Rosen,
Speaker 1: who was the dude that was like, listen, fam, I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't just go change the things with Jeff Clark,
Speaker 1: who was super down to be like, hey, look, there's
Speaker 1: a way we could do this. If you know, if
Speaker 1: your boy Pens don't acknowledge the electors, then uh, we
Speaker 1: might be able to pull this off. So that little
Speaker 1: inception thing was planted in his head. Pen was like fam,
Speaker 1: this ship is ceremonial, Like you really think I could
Speaker 1: change it? Like, like again, the stuff I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: y'all should already know by now. It's like, Fam, this
Speaker 1: is saramony an. I can't what are you? What are
Speaker 1: you trying to do? Then they had this plan they
Speaker 1: try to do it down in Michigan where they said
Speaker 1: they just picked some new electors and sent them down there,
Speaker 1: and the Michigan elected officials was like, no, fam, our
Speaker 1: electors already in there. It's like, no, you have more.
Speaker 1: They were just trying to send dudes that was gonna
Speaker 1: choose Trump despite what was voted for, Like this thinger
Speaker 1: was grabbing for everything he could possibly get. And what
Speaker 1: we're seeing in this probe is that nobody is under
Speaker 1: any delusion that what we're doing is criminal. There's no
Speaker 1: doubt the mix. They know what they do it is
Speaker 1: and that's the hood part. It's like, oh, no, we
Speaker 1: know it's a crime. Like that's not the question. Ain't
Speaker 1: no true believers out this ship. We're committing capital crimes here?
Speaker 1: Question is is this even feasible? Is the juice worth
Speaker 1: to squeeze? Because like I'm I'm here to the wheels
Speaker 1: fall off. But you in Kukoo Land remember when Jojo
Speaker 1: was on here that at some point you'd be like, Okay, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just not gonna listen to this, and we're just
Speaker 1: not gonna listen to this, ol G. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, at some point you realize this man
Speaker 1: is in an altered universe. For some reason, it took
Speaker 1: these people four years to realize he was in an
Speaker 1: altared universe. But nonetheless, when them pardons didn't come, we
Speaker 1: would see who was really hardcore, who was really about
Speaker 1: this work, do you know what I'm saying? And who
Speaker 1: just understood the assignment and ran the play, Because when
Speaker 1: it comes down to it, look, I ain't going to
Speaker 1: jail for you because you wasn't willing to protect me
Speaker 1: from this. You just as a bridge too far. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what though, let me tell you what I
Speaker 1: learned from Let me tell you what I learned from
Speaker 1: this January six probe is that very few true believers.
Speaker 1: I think the point about Rudy Giuliani being drunk on
Speaker 1: the night of the election being like, hey, never concede.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, this ain't news in the sense that
Speaker 1: fam everybody drunk that night, and of course, Rudy Giuliani hammered,
Speaker 1: why the hell you listening? Why does anybody listening to
Speaker 1: this man? That's not news. That man ain't no dog. Listen.
Speaker 1: Who ain't got an uncle Rudy? Who in this world
Speaker 1: ain't got an uncle Rudy? Think about all that, Rudy, Judy,
Speaker 1: who ain't got an uncle Rudy. You ain't puposed to
Speaker 1: listen to Uncle Rudy. You shouldn't conceeed man, Uncle Rudy.
Speaker 1: If you don't sit down, you want some coffee, Uncle Rudy, like, man,
Speaker 1: off of that man, some coffee. Tell him to go
Speaker 1: set down somewhere. Rudy drunk, Hey, Rudy said, don't concede.
Speaker 1: What a fan. But yeah, there's plenty of coverage on
Speaker 1: step by steps as to what happened there. They ran
Speaker 1: to play. They understood the assignment. But that's not the
Speaker 1: only thing these people understood. That ain't the only player
Speaker 1: was running. We gotta talk about the Supreme Court play
Speaker 1: after this break. All right, y'all listen. To understand this moment,
Speaker 1: you have to go back fifty years, maybe even sixty years.
Speaker 1: You have to go so far back to understand this play. Also,
Speaker 1: in addition to this, you gotta understand what it means
Speaker 1: when you get put on. When you get put on,
Speaker 1: you don't owe anybody anything except for the people to
Speaker 1: put you on. I don't care what you voted for,
Speaker 1: whoever got the whoever put the bag in place, it
Speaker 1: got me put on. They call the shots. I don't
Speaker 1: owe none of you. I don't care what you voted for.
Speaker 1: I care what you think about what we're doing. I'm
Speaker 1: here for those who put us on. You want to
Speaker 1: understand the Supreme Court. You want to understand the Republican
Speaker 1: Party thing about that. They only owe stuff that whoever
Speaker 1: put them on. Understand the n r A. You understand
Speaker 1: any of that. Who put you on, that's who you
Speaker 1: run for. Now from a tactical standpoint, brilliant. Now the
Speaker 1: play is the is the Supreme Court. It's the power play.
Speaker 1: We've covered this many times that the goal was always judges,
Speaker 1: because at some point your elected terms are going to end. Right,
Speaker 1: But if you want legacy, if you think of miss Mconnam,
Speaker 1: Mconna thinking legacy, if you want legacy, you need to
Speaker 1: have people in place. And again, like I told you, before.
Speaker 1: You ain't worried about being on the camera. You ain't
Speaker 1: worried about like, oh, Mitch, Mitch, ain't. Mitch ain't running
Speaker 1: for no president. He's like, that's too much heat. I
Speaker 1: can't get this ship done, like I like to get done. Now,
Speaker 1: I'll let y'all do that. Yeah, y'all go ahead and
Speaker 1: do that. I'm running to play. I know how this
Speaker 1: game works, and he worked this game, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: argue Trump was just a part of his game. Trump
Speaker 1: running his own play, but Mitch, Mitch had to play.
Speaker 1: That play was judges. I would like to stress enough
Speaker 1: that I feel like Mr McConnell been a senator as
Speaker 1: long as I've been alive, Like I just I don't
Speaker 1: know when he's ever not been in in government, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Like the man just understands the game.
Speaker 1: And it ain't just the Supreme Court. You know, many
Speaker 1: courts are under the Supreme Court. Now, you just you
Speaker 1: put goons in every corner. You put them in every place,
Speaker 1: and if you put them in place, they're gonna always
Speaker 1: owe you something. Mitch running to play and in a
Speaker 1: way that I look, the Republicans understood the assignment, and
Speaker 1: as everybody saw, they was able to switch that courts over.
Speaker 1: It took him a while, but they was able to
Speaker 1: switch the Supreme Court to a six three on their side. Now,
Speaker 1: like we said before, the Supreme Court doesn't have to
Speaker 1: be nine people. It as a matter of fact, Constitution
Speaker 1: doesn't state at all. It just says we need to
Speaker 1: have one. It as in the Supreme Court, it just
Speaker 1: says we need to have one. They don't say how
Speaker 1: many will like that don't matter, it don't say it.
Speaker 1: We just figured it out and we just kind of
Speaker 1: stuck with nine because of the politicist politic coalization. Sometimes
Speaker 1: you gotta say something slow of course, which again, remember
Speaker 1: like I said before, as our history history teacher had on,
Speaker 1: the courts were supposed to be the furthest away from politics.
Speaker 1: They were supposed to be because they needed to be
Speaker 1: as unbiased as they possibly can until Marbarry versus Madison,
Speaker 1: when President figured out, yo, I could actually weaponize these fools,
Speaker 1: and that's what they did. So we've been the courts
Speaker 1: have been weaponized for a while. Like so, and they
Speaker 1: like listen, don't hate again, don't hate the player, hate
Speaker 1: the game. They did it. They got their dudes in place.
Speaker 1: Democrats could have done the same thing. And but you
Speaker 1: know what, Republicans ran defense when we when Mary Garland
Speaker 1: could have been could have in a Supreme court, they
Speaker 1: ran to play. I mean like it was I look,
Speaker 1: they ran to play and they got him blocked. But
Speaker 1: then they got their guy in. That was the play.
Speaker 1: It sucks, but that was the play. So the play
Speaker 1: was to get your dudes in. And how you're gonna
Speaker 1: get your dudes and you tell them and say what
Speaker 1: you need to say? What I overturn Roe v Wade? No,
Speaker 1: of course not man, that's law. Why would I overturn that? Bro?
Speaker 1: Say what? You gotta understand the assignment and run to play.
Speaker 1: So to play. What I'm trying to get at is
Speaker 1: the play goes back to the idea of a single
Speaker 1: issue voter. It's when all the way back to Nixon,
Speaker 1: when the right figured out the concept of the silent majority,
Speaker 1: which is another way to say racist white people. Let's
Speaker 1: just be real, right, So you weaponize their grievances, You
Speaker 1: give them poe topics to be worried about, right, Philish
Speaker 1: slapp lely in them and the and you know and
Speaker 1: the John Bird society all this stuff like gon do
Speaker 1: your history like you create you know, Jerry Folwell Senior.
Speaker 1: You create this block, you feel me and you tell
Speaker 1: them what their issues are, guns, free market capitalism, private schools,
Speaker 1: anti communists, and abortion. You tell them that stay issue right,
Speaker 1: and you use terms like pro life, because if you
Speaker 1: run the board like that, if you use terms like that,
Speaker 1: then anybody who's not pro life sounds like you pro
Speaker 1: death like you. I mean, you ran, They ran to play.
Speaker 1: You know what else the play is? We talked about
Speaker 1: this before the players. You getting in and you define
Speaker 1: the terms. I'm telling you what woke means. I'm telling
Speaker 1: you what alternative fact. I'm telling you what fake news means.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you what critical race theory means. That don't
Speaker 1: matter what it means. I'm telling you what it means.
Speaker 1: They ran to play. You know, you get your base.
Speaker 1: You know you you run off grievances, You get your
Speaker 1: base up in there. You can do what the hell
Speaker 1: you won't as long as you hit these notes. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm an artist. I've seen you know, you get an
Speaker 1: R and B singer up there, like I don't know
Speaker 1: if y'all saw the ray j versus You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm not gonna drag ray J because the
Speaker 1: O G I'm wearing, I'll be wearing raycon you know,
Speaker 1: head votes. But look, the play work like this. Look
Speaker 1: if you can't hit no note, nigked, look Homi, just
Speaker 1: shirt off, posting water on your six pack? Embody roll
Speaker 1: got them? You know what I'm saying, that's what they
Speaker 1: there for. You feel be. Don't nobody to care if
Speaker 1: you can sing a not except for some people care
Speaker 1: if you can sing or not. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: take shut off, body Roll. You got them? So you
Speaker 1: so you so you hit these notes right, these issue notes,
Speaker 1: and that's what's gonna keep people in the fold. And
Speaker 1: then you could just convince everybody. If you're not on
Speaker 1: these notes, you against us. This is another way of
Speaker 1: saying identity politics right like in this sense, if you
Speaker 1: don't agree with this, you're not one of us. There's
Speaker 1: no room for nuance. I believe nuances sacred work. I
Speaker 1: believe nuances necessary not only your politics and your religion
Speaker 1: and your faith. You know what I'm saying, in your
Speaker 1: family's nuances necessary. You can't really govern if you don't
Speaker 1: understand nuance. But if you have nuance, you probably can't win.
Speaker 1: These people came to win. You run to play now
Speaker 1: Roe v. Wade. That's just one of the plays. Do
Speaker 1: you know how many other things passed while we talked
Speaker 1: about this? Listen to this. So one of the players
Speaker 1: they ran. One of the things that came out with
Speaker 1: something I talked about in the Supreme Court wants All
Speaker 1: the Smoke thing, which is this idea that like, for
Speaker 1: you to have an open carry in New York, you
Speaker 1: have to prove that you have a special situation, that
Speaker 1: you mentally stable right, and that you're gonna be reasonable
Speaker 1: about it, and you have to have a permit for it.
Speaker 1: So they ended that, I mean, you ain't gotta get
Speaker 1: a permit, you ain't gotta prove a special circumstance, and
Speaker 1: you ain't gotta prove that you don't have mental issues.
Speaker 1: She could just walk around with you. So that was
Speaker 1: one of it. So that happened, right, and that's why
Speaker 1: a lot of people One of my favorite, one of
Speaker 1: the dopest tweets I saw it was the sister Suba,
Speaker 1: she's a comedian. She tweeted, how do I become a
Speaker 1: gun that's hilarious, y'all. Joe saying like like just go
Speaker 1: gon connect the dots. But that's one thing said. They
Speaker 1: was like, look, we're gonna get your We're gonna get
Speaker 1: you all your guns. I don't hate the player, hate
Speaker 1: the game. We're gonna get you all your guns. So
Speaker 1: when you strike this down again, it goes back to
Speaker 1: the States. So now states go, oh, nigge green light.
Speaker 1: So we ain't gotta like we got oh, we're good, okay.
Speaker 1: And the idea that you was able to get less
Speaker 1: restrictions on guns in a season where we got most shootings,
Speaker 1: it's fair. So here go another one. This one is
Speaker 1: a little This is when you get in the wheels.
Speaker 1: This too, like yo, you got paid attention. In Maine,
Speaker 1: there's a situation where you have these like areas where
Speaker 1: you got these kids who live in these like rules
Speaker 1: spread out areas that there is no like public school
Speaker 1: for right. So but those kids need an education. So
Speaker 1: Maine came up with this program where the government will
Speaker 1: pay the tuition for these kids to go to private
Speaker 1: schools because there ain't no school, there's no school for
Speaker 1: them to go to, so they got to go to something.
Speaker 1: So they said, yeah, well, well the the state will
Speaker 1: provide the funds for this school to be able to
Speaker 1: take these students. But some of those schools are religious schools,
Speaker 1: you know, Christian Cavil whatever, right, and those schools have,
Speaker 1: since they're privately ran, have some discriminatory practices. They don't
Speaker 1: hire l G B t Q teachers, they expel trans students.
Speaker 1: There are all these different things that like according today,
Speaker 1: personal buy laws that they're they discriminate over. But now
Speaker 1: they're taking government money. But the government money is like, well, yo,
Speaker 1: well if you're gonna take our money, then you gotta
Speaker 1: follow our rules. Well, the Supreme Course says, now you
Speaker 1: ain't gotta follow those rules, so we can send you
Speaker 1: there and we're gonna give you the money for it,
Speaker 1: but you don't have to submit yourselves to the same
Speaker 1: governance that a public school does, even though you get
Speaker 1: in public school money. So they get the money. Where
Speaker 1: out the oversight Supreme Court ran to play. Here go
Speaker 1: another one. You are no longer allowed to sue the
Speaker 1: police department if they don't read you your Miranda rights.
Speaker 1: You know, you have a right your main silent. A
Speaker 1: lot of times if like a cops skips all that.
Speaker 1: You know, it's not like we don't all know them,
Speaker 1: but they that's like part of the job, like come on,
Speaker 1: man like, but now you know you can't sue them
Speaker 1: if they well, look, man, the cop forgot. I can't
Speaker 1: sue him for forgetting. They ran to play. Now your
Speaker 1: confession is still like admissible, like you can't nobody can,
Speaker 1: like in court if you weren't Miranda, I is your
Speaker 1: confession don't count Like that's that's still there, but you
Speaker 1: just can't sue the cops. And finally, the play of
Speaker 1: all plays, the play that kicked in fifty years ago,
Speaker 1: and I was overturning Roe v. Wade. Now what do
Speaker 1: we mean by overturning Roe v. Made If you don't know,
Speaker 1: I'll get into the weeds a little bit. Here is
Speaker 1: for a long time, laws around abortion we're at the
Speaker 1: state level, like and it was kind of a patchwork,
Speaker 1: you know, of which state allows it offer services, you know,
Speaker 1: all this good stuff, and you'd have to like drive
Speaker 1: you know, across country across state to do these things
Speaker 1: or what those things used to having, like these like
Speaker 1: back alley abortions where sisters would you know, it just
Speaker 1: sounds awful, like sisters would just like hangers or just
Speaker 1: in the alley just have somebody like yo, pay me
Speaker 1: fifty bucks, I'll do it for you, and like who's
Speaker 1: it was terrible? Right, So if anything, it was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we need to ensconch in federal law that like, look, dude,
Speaker 1: you have a right to get one, man, you have
Speaker 1: a right not to get one. Like That's one of
Speaker 1: the parts that like, I feel like we just don't
Speaker 1: understand as a nation how your rights work. You have
Speaker 1: a right to something, you have a right to turn
Speaker 1: that thing down. Just because you have a right to
Speaker 1: something doesn't mean you are compelled to do something. You
Speaker 1: feel me like that being said, like like you don't
Speaker 1: have to don't have to get abortion, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's just saying. But if somebody do, like
Speaker 1: they got the right to was the federal law right.
Speaker 1: So what this did was say, well, I don't know
Speaker 1: if we can make this a federal law, maybe we
Speaker 1: should leave this to the states. And that these things
Speaker 1: that were called trigger laws. So thirteen states immediately said
Speaker 1: if Roe v. Wade was ever overturned, we find an
Speaker 1: outlaw abortion. Some states were like except for you know,
Speaker 1: cases of rape or incest. Some states were like, nah, fam,
Speaker 1: this crazy you tripping, and then other states like California,
Speaker 1: was like, okay, then we need to make sure we
Speaker 1: sure up our our access to abortion like laws and
Speaker 1: spaces like we need to shore up our our our stuff. Right.
Speaker 1: The point I'm making in this is not necessarily how
Speaker 1: I feel about Roe v. Wade. It's that this was
Speaker 1: their play, and this play only works if there's no
Speaker 1: such thing as nuance. The way that we explain this
Speaker 1: to you is, well, it's murdered. I mean, you killing babies.
Speaker 1: Who gonna argue with killing babies? Yo, saying like and
Speaker 1: and if you could just say, hey, well like at
Speaker 1: least I'm not a baby killer, then I don't have
Speaker 1: to understand nothing else. That was the play, and good
Speaker 1: god it worked again. Nuance makes you a pretty decent human,
Speaker 1: makes you understand life more, but it don't make you win,
Speaker 1: at least in our system. If you're gonna win, you
Speaker 1: gotta play the game the way the game is played.
Speaker 1: And that's what the hell the Republicans did. Now that
Speaker 1: being said, let me take my teacher hat off, well
Speaker 1: not my teacher had off. Let me take my my,
Speaker 1: uh little politics hat off and just speak to y'all
Speaker 1: real quick. I keep talking about nuance, and I feel
Speaker 1: remiss if I don't get into some of these nuances
Speaker 1: I told you before on the last time we talked
Speaker 1: about rov Wait, I was like, Yo, this is mouth thorny.
Speaker 1: Anybody who grew up in a church, you know, at
Speaker 1: least a Western church out here, like especially in the
Speaker 1: shadow of what I just talked about, like the culture
Speaker 1: Wars stuff like abortion was we was taught he was
Speaker 1: cut and dry. We but we was never afforded the
Speaker 1: freedom again to think of things in nuance. So even
Speaker 1: jumping over that hurdle, now, granted, there are plenty of churches,
Speaker 1: uh using the church example that art snarsly pro choice
Speaker 1: and it's that's they've already processed this stuff, just like
Speaker 1: there are plenty of churches that are lgbt Q Afferman
Speaker 1: like it's don't don't let the loud ones fool you.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I kind of it allowed while the ways
Speaker 1: like backed off because I was like, listen, dude, like
Speaker 1: I know I'll never be pregnant, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know, a little personal news like,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm in a happy marriage and we're don't
Speaker 1: have a children. I've been snipped like I'm shooting blanks.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Uh. And I did it
Speaker 1: as like listen to me. I got it from the
Speaker 1: helmy bamboo. I did it as an act of feminism
Speaker 1: because I was like, as terrifying as this is to
Speaker 1: have somebody put a knife towards the junk, I was like, Yo,
Speaker 1: this is fifteen minutes. It's barely invasive. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: yeahn man. Like when we first got married, you know,
Speaker 1: my wife was on birth control pills and what that
Speaker 1: was doing to her chemistry. I was like, man, I can't.
Speaker 1: It's just like that's not dope the idea of like
Speaker 1: a full Hitt director. He's just taking organs like how
Speaker 1: much that. I was like, Yo, that's tubes tied like
Speaker 1: all this stuff. I'm like, man, that it's just so
Speaker 1: it's just in the human and human it's just so
Speaker 1: invasive that just me, just as a person who understands
Speaker 1: other persons, I was like, fam, like, it's cool, I
Speaker 1: just do this. I was scared, don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: but that's because yeah, in my ask for me and
Speaker 1: my house. I would not want to choose to terminate
Speaker 1: a pregnancy. Now you want to get into the weeds
Speaker 1: and say that when we was on, when we was
Speaker 1: doing birth control, that we would terminating pregnancies. Maybe, I
Speaker 1: don't know. That's type of stuff that like, can God
Speaker 1: make a rock so big that he can't move it?
Speaker 1: Tight talk? You know what I'm saying. Did Adam and
Speaker 1: Eve have navels? You know what I'm saying, Like, that's
Speaker 1: that type of talk to me that I'm like, I
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I don't need to like, you know,
Speaker 1: I don't need to get into that. That's that's that
Speaker 1: naval gazing to me. It was like in my could
Speaker 1: I consciously? Could I Jason consciously? And I'm like, I personally,
Speaker 1: I don't think I can. So I'm gonna do what
Speaker 1: I need to do. And of course, given the right circumstances,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, of course I'm gonna
Speaker 1: try to save my wife's life, Like that's what do you?
Speaker 1: Of course I am you know what I'm saying, But
Speaker 1: just snip up. But I just can't imagine how excruciating
Speaker 1: that decision would be. But at the end, of the day. Yo,
Speaker 1: it's not even my decision. I'm not carrying the baby.
Speaker 1: I can just do some input, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But what I can do is my part right to
Speaker 1: not put myself in that situation. Now that's Jason, that's problem.
Speaker 1: I ain't telling nobody else to do that. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about me, right. But I think when you start talking
Speaker 1: about abortion, like I said, if you just make it
Speaker 1: as simple as babies, I mean, like you can't that
Speaker 1: mean we have a matter of fact, I almost wish
Speaker 1: it was. I wish it was that. I wish that
Speaker 1: was the play I wish to play, truly, was babies,
Speaker 1: because if it was, we'd have something to talk about.
Speaker 1: Now we can talk about paid maternity lead, now we
Speaker 1: can start talking about affordable health care. Hell, we don't
Speaker 1: even got no we don't even got simulact Like, we
Speaker 1: don't even got baby formula. You ain't got my nity leave,
Speaker 1: you ain't got like, we ain't got no services. If
Speaker 1: it was about the babies, then why then what did
Speaker 1: y'all doing to our elementary schools? What is y'all doing
Speaker 1: to our prisons? Like? If if you was pro life,
Speaker 1: then let's let's talk about it. I feel like we
Speaker 1: have something to discuss there. It just don't. I'm just
Speaker 1: saying all all signs point the opposite way, that that's
Speaker 1: not what the hell you meant. Now. For for some people,
Speaker 1: it is that simple. It is like, well, no, Like
Speaker 1: I know a lot of like Christian religious leaders that
Speaker 1: are like, no, we're wounded to the tomb. Pro lifers
Speaker 1: that are like, all these things need to happen. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, you need to I don't. I would.
Speaker 1: I would love to see a world where abortions aren't
Speaker 1: necessary unless there's a situation like a septic uterus or
Speaker 1: things where it's like, you know, Mama could die and
Speaker 1: I'll show you in the scriptures when it was times
Speaker 1: where Mama could die and it was like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, like, well she, I mean
Speaker 1: it's it's killing her, and your child on the inside
Speaker 1: of you is also be and slowly tortured. And I
Speaker 1: mean there's no I mean, there's no normal, Like every
Speaker 1: situation is different for every woman, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So I can't even call that. But there are some
Speaker 1: I know, some like religious leaders that are like no,
Speaker 1: I know some other religious leaders that are like, what, like,
Speaker 1: it's not my place, dog, Like that's her body, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Which at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: are we talking about babies? Are we talking about this
Speaker 1: woman's body? But like, and to me, it's just my opinion,
Speaker 1: if we were talking about the babies, then the other
Speaker 1: things would be on the table. It sounded me like
Speaker 1: you just talking about their bodies. And remember I told
Speaker 1: you if you have a version of justice, Like again,
Speaker 1: I can't stress this book enough. Michael sandellas books called
Speaker 1: what is Justice? If you have a definition of justice
Speaker 1: that says, what is just is the way the world
Speaker 1: should be. So we need to all aspire to what
Speaker 1: things should be. And oftentimes that's out and above us.
Speaker 1: But you're appealing to something. This is why this should be.
Speaker 1: That's appealing to something always seems to appeal to people
Speaker 1: of faith because they believe that justice comes from outside
Speaker 1: of us. Right, so in their world, follow me, there
Speaker 1: should not be anything such thing as trans There should
Speaker 1: not be anything such thing as as gay and lesbian,
Speaker 1: like it shouldn't be there. Therefore, there should be no
Speaker 1: such thing as abortion, because every person conceived would be
Speaker 1: in a heterosexual marriage and a healthy family, so we
Speaker 1: should all aspire to that. Therefore, why would you make
Speaker 1: a compliation accommodations for anything else, because nothing else should
Speaker 1: be there. That's the definition of justice. This is why
Speaker 1: you make laws to try to make what you believe
Speaker 1: the world should be as. But the problem is that's
Speaker 1: not what is here. We are right. But now back
Speaker 1: to the young lady. However I feel about that person
Speaker 1: or not, it don't matter. I'm just saying, like, yo, like, fam,
Speaker 1: you don't think you don't think this lady not thinking
Speaker 1: about all this stuff. I mean, it's like if you're
Speaker 1: gonna make every character of this of these ladies as
Speaker 1: somebody who was just like you know, spring break, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and then just show up a
Speaker 1: month later and it's like, oh, well, I got another one.
Speaker 1: Better knock this one out. Like, I mean, come on,
Speaker 1: that's a very specific you you feel me like, And
Speaker 1: even if it is that's all her, that's a very
Speaker 1: specific situation. Especially when you start talking about like late
Speaker 1: term abortion. I mean, you're talking about somebody who carried
Speaker 1: a baby eight months, that child got a name, They
Speaker 1: didn't bought cribs. You think this lady just decide. You
Speaker 1: think this lady just decided on the thirtieth day, Like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm good. I know, like this is
Speaker 1: probably the most excruciating, difficult life altering at a level
Speaker 1: that listen, listen me, and you don't get if you
Speaker 1: let me tell you something, I don't want to get
Speaker 1: into pronoun and non binaries. I'm not gonna get into this.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cut it like I'm gonna use Yaw's language.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use the buyinary male and female language. If
Speaker 1: you're a man, you don't understand that feeling, I just
Speaker 1: like you, how can you? I'm just That's all I'm
Speaker 1: trying to say, is like, how can you? I can't.
Speaker 1: I like, listen, I can't imagine that position. So to me,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I mean, yeah, dog like man, I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't wish I don't wish that moment on my
Speaker 1: wordst enemy you feel me. I don't wish that on nobody.
Speaker 1: So at the end of the day, you could think
Speaker 1: of like a million reasons why you feel a or
Speaker 1: be about stuff. You know what I'm saying. I just
Speaker 1: think at the end of the day, this is these
Speaker 1: are these one topics that like, Man, if you ain't
Speaker 1: got nuanced, if you're not willing to really descend into
Speaker 1: the particulars and really understand and really put yourself into
Speaker 1: my else shoes, maybe you should shut the up because
Speaker 1: you don't understand the situation, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And I think maybe understand the person that's in the
Speaker 1: situation might be a better, better way to approach things.
Speaker 1: But that's not what this pot is about. This pot
Speaker 1: is about running the play And let me tell you something,
Speaker 1: Say what you will. These fools got a law overturned. Damn.
Speaker 1: Don't hate the player, hate the game, or you better
Speaker 1: learn the game and know how to play the politics. Y'all. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is here thing was recorded by Me Propaganda and
Speaker 1: E Slow Spoil Heights, Los Angeles, California. This mug was mixed, edited, mastered,
Speaker 1: and scored by Matt Osolski. I can totally say his name, guys,
Speaker 1: it was it was a stick. He's going by Matt
