Speaker 1: to laugh and learned ladies and gem and I'm your
Speaker 1: host Flame on the road, along with my gorgeous and
Speaker 1: beautiful co host. What's the name Lauren Hogan? High Flame? Hi,
Speaker 1: Lauren Hogan girl. I missed you. I have not seen
Speaker 1: you in a week. Where have you been? Oh, my god, child,
Speaker 1: ain't been me? Well, actually I take that back. I
Speaker 1: had been working, but you've been working too, That's why
Speaker 1: we haven't seen each other. So, yeah, I had a friend,
Speaker 1: I had a project that you signed me up for
Speaker 1: that Oh my god, they beat me like I was
Speaker 1: like a lion and I was in a cage and
Speaker 1: they had a whip and a chair and I loved it.
Speaker 1: Now I recorded an audiobook that I think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be pretty great, So you guys, when it comes out,
Speaker 1: we're talking about that more in detail. And it just
Speaker 1: consumed me. And it was the hardest money I've had
Speaker 1: to work for in a long time, let me be
Speaker 1: very honest. But it was something that she wanted to do, though, right,
Speaker 1: and so I didn't think I wanted to know what
Speaker 1: it was like to do a audio recording. And Joe
Speaker 1: Coy when we interviewed him, you remember, he told us
Speaker 1: it was challenging, and then Tiffany had told me how
Speaker 1: challenging it was. But oh, I'm mad at both of
Speaker 1: them because they didn't tell me it was hard. They
Speaker 1: just said challenging. There's a difference between hard, and they
Speaker 1: needed to use a different adjective for you that was
Speaker 1: more descriptive than challenging. It kicked my ass, let me
Speaker 1: just beyond I wanted to quit last Winsday that even
Speaker 1: for my birthday, and I had a birthday last week.
Speaker 1: I was at work on my birthday. Good God. It
Speaker 1: was hard work, but it was good and I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be great. The story of the book is great.
Speaker 1: So hopefully when it comes out, you guys were bad.
Speaker 1: We're talking about it as it gets closer. He won't
Speaker 1: drop it to the end of August, so we're talking
Speaker 1: about it as we get closer. And I know you've
Speaker 1: been working, but we're gonna get on to the news
Speaker 1: because there's so much going on in this world right now,
Speaker 1: in this country. And good god, Lauren Hogan, I see
Speaker 1: you looking at the news just like I'm looking at
Speaker 1: the news. Well, we'll save January six till Ayen, we're
Speaker 1: gonna We're gonna end with the crazy white people. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: So let's start with let's started. Since you brought up
Speaker 1: crazy white people, let's start with crazy white people. This
Speaker 1: week in the news, there's a woman whose son, I
Speaker 1: think her son was seventeen or eighteen, who was leaving
Speaker 1: all kinds of encryptic messages and talking about he was
Speaker 1: going to shoot up at school. And this white woman
Speaker 1: turned her son into the police, and she is broken
Speaker 1: hearted behind it. He said he hates her, but this
Speaker 1: woman possibly have said many lads who know if it's
Speaker 1: just one, it's somebody else's life. So hats off to
Speaker 1: that mother for And I know that was heartbreaking because
Speaker 1: it would be hard for me to turn in one
Speaker 1: of my children. But how we live in now, it's
Speaker 1: just terrible. So I I commend that mother for that
Speaker 1: because she winning he saw something that was wrong and
Speaker 1: she knew she couldn't handle it. At least she had
Speaker 1: courage enough to do that. And I know that's hard
Speaker 1: because she may lose her son speaking to her forever,
Speaker 1: but she saved somebody's life, possibly even he is. So
Speaker 1: the story is. The woman's name is Nicole Schubert and
Speaker 1: she was a Washington mom who's forty one. She reveals
Speaker 1: heartbreaking for excuse, and she reveals heartbreak of having to
Speaker 1: turn her own son, who was seventeen, into the police
Speaker 1: after finding his chilling diary which revealed plans to murder
Speaker 1: her and shoot up his school. She says, he turned
Speaker 1: he's turned his life around and it's planning to go
Speaker 1: to college. But I guess it didn't work. So yeah,
Speaker 1: he planned to carry out the shooting at his Washington
Speaker 1: school on the twenty one anniversary of the Columbine shooting,
Speaker 1: and the first victim was to be his mother. Hm hmm,
Speaker 1: I'm now here's the question. Did she turn them in
Speaker 1: because he was gonna shoot up the school or she
Speaker 1: read that, oh he's gonna kill me first? That is
Speaker 1: terrible flamewor bro. But you know, whatever the case may be,
Speaker 1: I'm glad that she had the courage to go follow
Speaker 1: through that because me as a parent, honestly, if I
Speaker 1: had a crazy kid that was playing on doing that,
Speaker 1: I don't even know if I had the courage to
Speaker 1: turn my own kidney. And that's just the truth. So
Speaker 1: I commend that lady. I do. We're talking to But
Speaker 1: this is interesting though she actually turned him in three
Speaker 1: years ago, but the story just came out, so has
Speaker 1: he been locked up all this time? So good what
Speaker 1: she called after reading he was seventeen, then reading the
Speaker 1: diary and it says though her son's twenty, he still
Speaker 1: remains upset with her. She said his life is back
Speaker 1: on track and actually thanks his mom for the intervention.
Speaker 1: So I guess he's see Hopefully that conversion therapy work
Speaker 1: cause conversion therapy for the other one don't work. That's
Speaker 1: but yeah, kudos to her for taking responsibility for her
Speaker 1: own kids. And speaking of courageous moms, let's talk about
Speaker 1: the courageous parents that's in you, boldy, that's giving them
Speaker 1: police officers and all their law enforcement down there pushed
Speaker 1: back about the depth of their children calls from day one.
Speaker 1: I see it on on laugh and learning the first day.
Speaker 1: I see it. Baby, they need to be nineteen job openness,
Speaker 1: and they all need to have go see the Wizard
Speaker 1: because they all need some courage. I love that all
Speaker 1: of it is unfolding, Lord, and people are seeing those
Speaker 1: people for who they are terrafied to be shot. I
Speaker 1: hate the tragedy of it all, but I hope all
Speaker 1: those law enforcement and police officers down there be replaced.
Speaker 1: It's just ridiculous. Well. The interesting thing is, though, I
Speaker 1: feel like as more details emerged, it gets worse and worse,
Speaker 1: because you know, there were actually about four hundred cops
Speaker 1: that were there that day. It wasn't just those nice
Speaker 1: tea and they still allowed those nineteen babies year old, unskilled,
Speaker 1: no military nothing, combat rained. Oh shooter, that me anybody
Speaker 1: scary you're scared to be shot? Ain't that the job
Speaker 1: you're saying that for? Yeah, and I think especially too
Speaker 1: after the video footage has now been released. It really
Speaker 1: just shows how cowardly they were, you got, I mean,
Speaker 1: And I know there was one officer that shows there
Speaker 1: was he was looking at his phone and it had
Speaker 1: like a skull head on it and people were really
Speaker 1: going after him. It turns out that that was actually
Speaker 1: one of the teacher's husbands and she had just sent
Speaker 1: him a message saying that you know, she was hurt
Speaker 1: that she was shot. So he was actually disarmed afterwards
Speaker 1: and wasn't allowed to go back into the building, and
Speaker 1: his wife ended up being killed. She was one of
Speaker 1: the teachers. But to have four hundred cops on site
Speaker 1: and y'all still allow those nineteen people to be murdered
Speaker 1: as crazy. It's just crazy to me. Nineteen children like
Speaker 1: those were babies. And I know that Vivaldi Mayor has
Speaker 1: put the police chief on administrative leave, so we'll see
Speaker 1: what happens around Well, wait a minute, he put him
Speaker 1: on leave or then he retired, then he stepped down. No,
Speaker 1: the last I saw that he was placed on leave.
Speaker 1: I don't know. If since then he's decided to retire
Speaker 1: because he was probably trying to protect his pension, so
Speaker 1: he walked away with something. But the last I saw
Speaker 1: he was put on administrative leave. That was earlier this week,
Speaker 1: so I don't know if that's changed. I haven't seen
Speaker 1: it on the news. But we we talked about police
Speaker 1: reform a year ago when George Floyd was murdered in
Speaker 1: um Uh, Minnesota, and it's just it's just ridiculous, and
Speaker 1: it don't look no better. And that's ridiculous. That wasn't
Speaker 1: even and not to put any color on it, but
Speaker 1: that wasn't even us that brown people, of course, but
Speaker 1: it's it's ridiculous. There was a brown That shooter was brown.
Speaker 1: Did you see where they went after the mother and
Speaker 1: his mother? It was attacking. His mother said she should
Speaker 1: be ashamed of herself, and the mother basically said, don't
Speaker 1: blame him. Her response to those outraged parents was not
Speaker 1: appropriate either. I understand that she's probably going through a lot,
Speaker 1: but her response to those parents was not appropriate. She said,
Speaker 1: don't blame him, it wasn't his fault, and then the
Speaker 1: parents yelled back at her, who's fault it was it?
Speaker 1: And she was saying, it's the mental, it's the mental,
Speaker 1: basically trying to say her son was mentally ill and
Speaker 1: that that was the reason why he did what he did.
Speaker 1: But at that excuse right there, Yeah, so, um, this
Speaker 1: whole this whole country mentally ill. And then I Dida
Speaker 1: mentioned Minnesota and George Floyd let me bring up this
Speaker 1: while we moved before we move on to the next subject.
Speaker 1: So today it was announced that the club there's an
Speaker 1: arena in Minnesota that canceled Dave your Pel's appearance at
Speaker 1: Off sold out. Why anybody, this was First Avenue, This
Speaker 1: was the infamous First Avenue venue where Prince More's Day
Speaker 1: everybody got their starts in. Yes, so yeah, and three
Speaker 1: hours before the concert they canceled because they were getting
Speaker 1: backlas apparently getting backlash of social media, not from no
Speaker 1: one group of no certain one organization, just from people.
Speaker 1: So my thing is, so y'all got twenty or thirty
Speaker 1: people who's sitting behind a computer with a fictitious name,
Speaker 1: possibly sitting there Mama's based on a garage who disgrunted
Speaker 1: about whatever or whomever, who's probably not participating in purchasing
Speaker 1: tickets at the venue. Didn't buy any don't come to it,
Speaker 1: don't patronize it, and y'all gonna let them dictate at
Speaker 1: y'all sold out arena, because at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: it's not about money or I mean, it's not about
Speaker 1: color or size or whatever. It's about money. And if
Speaker 1: you don't want to hear this comic, then just don't
Speaker 1: purchase a ticket. I thought that that was tag key
Speaker 1: and completely unprofessional, and I applauded Dave for taking it
Speaker 1: right up the street, having them shows for four nights
Speaker 1: in the row and giving them honoring those tickets, so
Speaker 1: those people still got their money's worth, because as an entertainer,
Speaker 1: you can be as big as you want to be,
Speaker 1: but without fans, you're not as big as you think
Speaker 1: you are, because fans keep you alive and and pay you,
Speaker 1: and that's how you make your money. I thought it
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. Yeah, I don't know actually what happened. I
Speaker 1: know that they from what I read, they said that
Speaker 1: they were getting a lot of like like an influx
Speaker 1: of complaints for weeks leading up to the show, and
Speaker 1: they just made the decision three weeks I mean, three
Speaker 1: hours before the show was supposed to happen. But the
Speaker 1: article that I read that they were getting complaints about
Speaker 1: this for weeks and it wasn't like a small number
Speaker 1: of people. So I don't know why all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: three hours before the event they said, don't do this. Um.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they were facing you know, possible
Speaker 1: threats or whatever. But like I said, First Avenue was
Speaker 1: a very legendary venue, you know, Prince was you know,
Speaker 1: got to start there. So I don't know what happened.
Speaker 1: But to your point, I think with all that's going
Speaker 1: on in the world, UM, you know, I support Dave.
Speaker 1: I don't think anything that he's said, a comedy special
Speaker 1: or anything that he's done, um, has been directly against
Speaker 1: the transgender community. I don't. I don't feel that way.
Speaker 1: So I am glad that he was still able to
Speaker 1: honor those ticket sales and his fans are still able
Speaker 1: to come and see him. But I would be curious
Speaker 1: to know what the full story is if that makes
Speaker 1: sense of why this happened three hours before he was
Speaker 1: set to take the stage. So yeah, and as a comedian,
Speaker 1: I I they've walked away from everything, uh for what
Speaker 1: seven years? Five years just because he was when he
Speaker 1: came back, and they're not going to stop him. He's
Speaker 1: already rich. You're not going to break him or cancel him,
Speaker 1: because he's already rich and already has made his mark
Speaker 1: in history. I don't understand the venue either, lore, but
Speaker 1: I love that Dave was professional enough and remember that
Speaker 1: the show must go on and honored those people's tickets
Speaker 1: because people could have gotten hotel rooms, drove in, that's
Speaker 1: gas money about playing tickets, of course, bought outfits. It's
Speaker 1: just ridiculous. And I think that it's getting the way
Speaker 1: with more and more, and I think all more comedians,
Speaker 1: myself included, all of us need to band together because
Speaker 1: they're gonna center us. And I don't want to be
Speaker 1: on stage worried about what I can't say. I want
Speaker 1: to be on stage worried about what I can say. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and speaking of comedians too, um did you see uh
Speaker 1: what Monique is doing? She finally got her Netflix special
Speaker 1: and she's doing a new movie. Who. I hope we
Speaker 1: all watched it that because the first year told us
Speaker 1: all the cancer on Netflix subscriptions. I'm just saying hope.
Speaker 1: But I still get mad. I too, but I do
Speaker 1: want to I mean I want to say congratulations to
Speaker 1: her that she finally got her Netflix deal. I don't
Speaker 1: know she was she you know, when it came to
Speaker 1: the Netflix issue, I wholeheartedly stood with her because she
Speaker 1: did have a point. You know, Amy Schumer was getting
Speaker 1: millions and millions of dollars and they came at her
Speaker 1: with like a mediocre deal. So I just want to say,
Speaker 1: I guess they came to a number that was appropriate
Speaker 1: for Monique. So congratulations to her. Annie, Her and Lee
Speaker 1: Daniels are back together and she's doing a new movie.
Speaker 1: I think it's called Deliverance or something like that. So um, well,
Speaker 1: taking amends with everybody, and thank you fifty cent for
Speaker 1: putting her back on the right road because who she
Speaker 1: was on the slippery slope. So and she's talented. Now,
Speaker 1: I just now the way of the world is the
Speaker 1: pressure is on her because but after all this hooplaha
Speaker 1: and backlash and this and that and back and forth,
Speaker 1: she really has the eyes of the world is watching.
Speaker 1: We're waiting on this special, so she's gonna have to
Speaker 1: bring the heat to fight. And you know what what
Speaker 1: what it was her plus is she's naturally funny, and
Speaker 1: I hope that she takes two three months. She's naturally
Speaker 1: a funny person, so I hope she takes two or
Speaker 1: three months and gets with some writers and comes out
Speaker 1: and blows it out the water, because that's what we want.
Speaker 1: We want to see her win. And I gotta tell
Speaker 1: you too, she's um. She did one of my favorite
Speaker 1: Christmas movies to watch now because it's just hilarious. It's
Speaker 1: called Almost Christmas. I think you came In or something
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, with Danny Glover and Gabrielle Union. It
Speaker 1: was hilarious. So it's like one of my favorite little
Speaker 1: Christmas who used to watch during Christmas time, and she
Speaker 1: was really the person that threaded everything together and made
Speaker 1: it funny. So I'm just happy that, you know, things
Speaker 1: are starting to work out for her, because it's she's
Speaker 1: been struggling, and then she had the whole thing with
Speaker 1: d O. We're not gonna get into that. We already
Speaker 1: talked about it, but yeah, super Monique, and even with
Speaker 1: even without a history, because we ain't got that, we
Speaker 1: ain't got the greatest history. She and that. But I've
Speaker 1: always acknowledged to talent on every interview I've ever brought
Speaker 1: up phone, I've always think how talents as she was
Speaker 1: and she would get a break. So look at God,
Speaker 1: guy will open up doors. What you think somebody else's ship.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that. That's glad to hear that. Tragically this week,
Speaker 1: we want to send prayers out to the family. I'll
Speaker 1: be Vuna Trump and run a Trump lost of life
Speaker 1: this week. Uh allegedly she failed down the stairs and
Speaker 1: um well not allgually, she did fall down the stairs.
Speaker 1: She did fall down the stairs, and uh it I
Speaker 1: know she was what was she seventy three? Yeah, she
Speaker 1: was seventy three and she fell down the stairs. That
Speaker 1: and that part is kind of baffling to me, is
Speaker 1: just like how does she fall down the stairs? Um?
Speaker 1: But anyway, I'm not gonna try to kiel conspiracy. I
Speaker 1: felt up a man down, so ship it can happen.
Speaker 1: I fell up the stairs and down to them, So
Speaker 1: I'm not happy. Yeah, I'm just saying it could happen.
Speaker 1: You know, you just you know, you never know the
Speaker 1: time or the hour. You just don't. Yeah, that's very true.
Speaker 1: So I mean condolences to her family. I saw that
Speaker 1: she was buried in a gold casket, so I hope
Speaker 1: she know you know Donald Trump was gonna lay it out.
Speaker 1: He got to pay alumoney no more? Did I say that?
Speaker 1: Do you still have to pay alumoney after your kids
Speaker 1: are run or if you get remarried. I don't think
Speaker 1: you have to pay alumoney any more, do you? Oh girl,
Speaker 1: I ain't never been made area, and I'm hoping that
Speaker 1: I got to pay alimony, palimony, trandymony, nonemonies. I want
Speaker 1: to keep my money in my pocket. Yeah. The dolens
Speaker 1: is to her, to her family. Um, even despite all
Speaker 1: the craziness, and this might be a good seguay into
Speaker 1: you know, well, well, well here's the thing. Even with
Speaker 1: her children being being under attack and and being because
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is their father and all the fuss, she
Speaker 1: was still their mother. So heartbreak. That's still she was
Speaker 1: still a mother and she still had children. So prayers
Speaker 1: to the children, Prayers to her family. Even with the
Speaker 1: Trump you know, eating tool, y'all don't fight me over
Speaker 1: this one. But he's still a human being, what kind
Speaker 1: of human being? But he's still a human being. But
Speaker 1: so prayers to the family because it's a loss of
Speaker 1: life and that hurts, and that does hurt, very true.
Speaker 1: But now on the flip side of that, Let's talk
Speaker 1: about these January six hearings and just how much conspiracy
Speaker 1: theory is, like, oh, is that a distraction? Donald Trump
Speaker 1: got to be the luckiest person on the planet because
Speaker 1: guess what, every time they got him jam to a corner,
Speaker 1: something happens to take your man off of it. But
Speaker 1: January six, that train has not stopped. That train. Liz
Speaker 1: Cheney is driving the hell out that train. Law. I
Speaker 1: gotta give credit to Adam Kinzinger, and today he was
Speaker 1: on it. He he was leading the hearings today and
Speaker 1: I said, okay, now, yeah, if I'm I'm watching you, well,
Speaker 1: MSNBC's on the background. But I gotta give them credit.
Speaker 1: Adam Kinsinger really is, you know, actually making a stand.
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people try to say let
Speaker 1: him and Liz Cheney's careers were over because they stepped
Speaker 1: away from the Republican Party. If anything, I think this
Speaker 1: brought life back into their careers. Because I was not
Speaker 1: a List Cheney fan. I'm gonna be very honest. I
Speaker 1: wasn't because you said, you have stated that. I'm laughing
Speaker 1: a couple of times. I'm not a List Cheney fan,
Speaker 1: but I will give credit where credits do and is
Speaker 1: that she is doing the right thing. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you know. I guess Trump pushed her a little
Speaker 1: bit too far to the right and she didn't want
Speaker 1: to go that far. But um, I will give her
Speaker 1: and Adam kinsing her their dues and say that they
Speaker 1: are doing what they're supposed to by bringing forth all
Speaker 1: of this different evidence and really stayed in their case.
Speaker 1: Now I need Mary Garland to grow a pair and
Speaker 1: do something about it. I will say that because he
Speaker 1: ain't done nothing. So I'm curious that he's doing This
Speaker 1: country has turned cowardly. I'm going to be the wizard.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say past now, courage, a heart and a brain.
Speaker 1: And you know the crazy Part two is Mary Garland
Speaker 1: was Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court originally and that
Speaker 1: he just couldn't get uh the Senate to uh confirm him.
Speaker 1: He was, well, Uh, it's just baffling to me because
Speaker 1: you know, we've got witness tampering. There's just so much
Speaker 1: evidence that's coming out. Gets worse. Yeah, and they say
Speaker 1: he's still making phone calls to people. All this is
Speaker 1: just treason. This is fulled out treason. And here's my thing.
Speaker 1: As much as I want down on Trump to go,
Speaker 1: I want down with Trump to go to jail as
Speaker 1: much as I want, as much as the next person does.
Speaker 1: But that is not my first priority. My first priority
Speaker 1: is for y'all to put some charges on him so
Speaker 1: that he cannot run a whole public office. That is
Speaker 1: my fear. Because if if you shoot and Mr. Target,
Speaker 1: they say they're trying to make sure they got all
Speaker 1: the ducks in a row so they don't miss the target.
Speaker 1: Because if they shoot at Mr. Target, his base will
Speaker 1: rally up like crazy. Yeah, he will for sure, because
Speaker 1: they're already on high alert and ready. Well, he's already
Speaker 1: basically said he's running in which I think is interesting.
Speaker 1: And then I also saw a pole the other day
Speaker 1: that it was like, uh, those that want Trump versus
Speaker 1: the Scantists. It still says that of Republicans will vote
Speaker 1: for Trump over the Scantists. It was like fifty three
Speaker 1: when we always think we came first. Well, what, I
Speaker 1: think that's interesting though, because I really thought that the
Speaker 1: Scantists had a shot if like Trump did end up
Speaker 1: running again, I thought people would vote for the santasy
Speaker 1: is younger, he pushes the Republican agenda like crazy, and
Speaker 1: he's better looking at Trump is. I just assume that
Speaker 1: they But here's the flip side of that. We think
Speaker 1: this Sants is stupid. You were the one who made
Speaker 1: me know that. He's Ivy League educated and he's very
Speaker 1: he's methodical, he thinks it out, he's very, very strategic.
Speaker 1: So the difference is they can control Trump, they can't
Speaker 1: control the Santis because he's smart. I give you that
Speaker 1: because I think the same thing went from Mike Pence.
Speaker 1: I think had Mike Pence actually been president, he would
Speaker 1: have been more problematic than Trump because he actually knew
Speaker 1: the law and he knew how to get things past Trump. Trump.
Speaker 1: I mean, Trump was popular anks a bunch of aracist,
Speaker 1: hateful as people, That's what he was. But the Santis
Speaker 1: not call him dumb and stupid. But he is methodical,
Speaker 1: and he is strategic, and he's pretty brilliant and not
Speaker 1: brilliant but bright. So he knows, like you said, play
Speaker 1: this game, and he would know how to move these
Speaker 1: check pieces chest pieces correctly. So he's scarier than Trump
Speaker 1: to me, he really is. I agree wholeheartedly with that.
Speaker 1: So but I just still find it interesting that you
Speaker 1: gottent of Republicans and that they still don't stand with
Speaker 1: Trump over the Santists and seventy three million lotta takes
Speaker 1: voted for their food. But that's what we are, and
Speaker 1: that is what's happening, and I need the d o
Speaker 1: J and all these people in charge to make this happen.
Speaker 1: If they put some charges on him, he cannot run
Speaker 1: for public office. That's all I'm waiting for. Well, I
Speaker 1: also love that um I don't want to misspell her name,
Speaker 1: so let me get her name right while I look
Speaker 1: that up. I love that question. So, Lauren, if he
Speaker 1: just has to throw his hat in the ring before
Speaker 1: they put charges on him, can they charge him after?
Speaker 1: That's a good question. I don't know because from what
Speaker 1: I've heard though, the plan is to do this before
Speaker 1: mid term start, so they're trying to get all this
Speaker 1: stuff out before he can even even announce his bid
Speaker 1: because supposedly he's gonna announce his bid to run in
Speaker 1: the fall of this year. He's gonna announce, So so
Speaker 1: I don't know what we shall let me see, But
Speaker 1: like I was saying, I do gotta get I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm a little I don't know. I gotta do. I
Speaker 1: gotta give kudos. I will say to Fanny um Willis,
Speaker 1: who's the district attorney in Georgia, who's actually bringing a
Speaker 1: case against Trump and all of his people. She subpoenaed
Speaker 1: all his faith collectors that try to have uh overturned Georgia,
Speaker 1: and she's really coming after him. She's basically doing what
Speaker 1: the d o J and Mary Garland should be doing.
Speaker 1: I'll be honest. She's the same woman that's got these
Speaker 1: charges against Gonna and Um young thug. But I digress,
Speaker 1: and she's using lyrics against them. I digress. But she's
Speaker 1: actually bringing forth, you know, charges for Trump, and Mary
Speaker 1: Garland is not doing that. You know, I've heard Liz
Speaker 1: Cheney say on um during these hearings. You know that
Speaker 1: anything that we think needs to be sent to the
Speaker 1: d o J, we're sending it. We're sending it. So
Speaker 1: when they had the witness come forward and say, hey,
Speaker 1: you know, Donald Trump called me and he's a lower
Speaker 1: level staff person. There's no reason for Donald Trump to
Speaker 1: be calling him, they turned it over to the d
Speaker 1: o J. That was a week ago. You you you
Speaker 1: do you know that karma is so real. Because remember
Speaker 1: when he was running against Hillary, it was where's the
Speaker 1: missing emails? Where's the easy missing emails? Now, how the
Speaker 1: d o J gonna erase all January six and seven
Speaker 1: text messages? They the Secret Service? How they only have one? Yeah,
Speaker 1: they only can They only have one text message? Which
Speaker 1: is very interesting considering they're saying that when they switched
Speaker 1: over servers they lost everything, But there's was time frames
Speaker 1: before and after January six where they were specifically instructed
Speaker 1: to save text messages. So how is it that child
Speaker 1: had specific instructions and they still magically disappeared? It was
Speaker 1: before and after the insurrection. We are set up. We
Speaker 1: are set up too loose because they are working from
Speaker 1: the inside out with this. They got too many people
Speaker 1: on the other side that's involved in all of this foolishness,
Speaker 1: from the from the State cap of the police, to
Speaker 1: the Secret Service, to the d o J, to some
Speaker 1: of these goddam congressmen in Republic. They all just whoa
Speaker 1: step back and breathe like, I'm trying to make two millions,
Speaker 1: so when I run to when I run to Europe,
Speaker 1: and well, I'm also looking good, but I'm also curious
Speaker 1: to see what they're gonna do about some of these
Speaker 1: other Republican representatives like the Mark Meadows and Jim Jordan's
Speaker 1: and even Lindsay Graham, Like are they gonna be copor
Speaker 1: holes anything? And all of this that's going on because
Speaker 1: they played a part two, especially Mark Meadows, I think
Speaker 1: they're gonna end up making him an escape goat for
Speaker 1: Trump if they really try to bring charges against Trunk,
Speaker 1: They're gonna make Mark Meadows go. Let me tell you,
Speaker 1: I can already see that. I think Trump would die
Speaker 1: before he went to jail. I do, and I hate
Speaker 1: to say it like that, but I do think that
Speaker 1: he would die before he went to jail because he's
Speaker 1: just such a separate ass. But you know, Lauren, today
Speaker 1: they talked about what was I about to tell you
Speaker 1: when you mentioned Mark Meadows Jo republic So the Republicans
Speaker 1: voted ninety what was it to one or to one
Speaker 1: two for birth control? Against birth control. They don't want
Speaker 1: people to have no kind of birth control, contraception condoms
Speaker 1: playing bees, Oh the House, the House. It was a
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty one Republicans. Let's be clear on that number.
Speaker 1: A hundred and fifty one Republicans in the House voted
Speaker 1: against protecting contraception of rights for women today or I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I think that was yesterday. A hundred and fifty one
Speaker 1: Republicans yep. And I still with women and talked about
Speaker 1: we wanted women to we wanted to stand with women
Speaker 1: on control of their bodies. Now this week they had
Speaker 1: the gay right the gay marriage and Gay Rights Bill
Speaker 1: on the on the agenda. Uh yeah, they move in
Speaker 1: to remove that. They're moving to as well too. They
Speaker 1: voted to protect that as well into racial and same
Speaker 1: sex marriages. They voted to protect that too, But I
Speaker 1: think those same one hundred and fifty one Republicans voted
Speaker 1: against it. Yep. It's a good thing. We have the
Speaker 1: majority right now, but I don't know how much longer
Speaker 1: are we gonna have this majority. Let me tell you,
Speaker 1: your president tested positive for COVID he got and he's
Speaker 1: been double booted and double vaccinated. Why is he my president? No,
Speaker 1: he's my president too. I voted for him too. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying president. I voted for him too, and proudly
Speaker 1: voted for him. I didn't. We'll vote well if it
Speaker 1: came down to vote for Joe Biden Donald Trump again,
Speaker 1: in four I would still vote for Joe. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be honest. I'm sorry. It's it's at the point where
Speaker 1: now we gotta look at voting is like what's the
Speaker 1: lesser of two evils? But I will say, what's interesting
Speaker 1: about this country when it comes to elected officials. Um.
Speaker 1: I actually saw a post that Shaun King made. Um.
Speaker 1: He was saying that America is the only country that
Speaker 1: has elected officials that are like in their seventies running
Speaker 1: the country, like no other country has that he made
Speaker 1: reference to, like, um, I forgot the other two, but
Speaker 1: like their presidents are like thirty six and thirty seven
Speaker 1: years old, like they're having kids for the first time,
Speaker 1: and they're youthful, they're progressive. You know, we got all
Speaker 1: these old white men running this country and they don't
Speaker 1: know what the hell they're doing at this point. They're
Speaker 1: just so out of touch and not with the times.
Speaker 1: That's why we're in the predicaments that we're in now.
Speaker 1: It's a country. It's crazy, how aware you tking about
Speaker 1: Joel ain't gonna remember, And Joe might not remember. I
Speaker 1: think if he running, Yeah, he might voth for the
Speaker 1: wrong person. He might not even the vote for itself,
Speaker 1: but we still go vote for By the time Joe, well,
Speaker 1: he's not doing well either. I saw that the majority
Speaker 1: of Democrats don't want him to run in so but
Speaker 1: but and and we have nobody said they don't want
Speaker 1: him to run, then they better be setting somebody up
Speaker 1: because we don't have anybody. Kamala is not going to win.
Speaker 1: But I'm just I don't think I don't think that
Speaker 1: would be because honestly, at this point, she's guilty by association.
Speaker 1: She's a part of the Biden administration, and a lot
Speaker 1: of people have asked, where have you been? You know,
Speaker 1: even when Roe was overturned, it took Joe like a
Speaker 1: week and a half to do something about it, to
Speaker 1: actually say something. His initial statement was just I'm I'm
Speaker 1: shocked and the fear now like your are you going
Speaker 1: to do something about it? It took him a week
Speaker 1: to actually put any type of legislation in place. You know,
Speaker 1: he finally signed that executive order saying that you know,
Speaker 1: he's gonna protect women, uh and allowing them to have
Speaker 1: abortions in cases of emergency. But that even like, why
Speaker 1: did it take you so long? And then you also
Speaker 1: have a black female Vice President Kamala, Where were you
Speaker 1: to say anything to him, to say this is important?
Speaker 1: And why didn't you'll have a plan in place. There's
Speaker 1: just I know that he inherited a messed up situation
Speaker 1: because of Donald Trump basically undid a lot of things
Speaker 1: that Obama did, and Donald Trump was also, you know,
Speaker 1: benefiting off of a lot of things that abomited, especially economically.
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Joe is just giving. He's very
Speaker 1: out of touch in Kamala. I don't know what the
Speaker 1: hell she's doing. So both too. Whenever my personal favorites
Speaker 1: or picks, I said that publicly, but I deal with
Speaker 1: what I had to deal with. Women they dealt in hand.
Speaker 1: The scariest part of being un Biden's underbidened regime right
Speaker 1: now is you see how the COVID is going back up,
Speaker 1: and that monkey pots and today somebody in New York
Speaker 1: Polio they had a shop for your sister stamn sixties
Speaker 1: and seventies. Now somebody tested They're gonna I'm afraid, I'm
Speaker 1: my conspiracy, my my mind thinking, I'm afraid the closer
Speaker 1: we get to they're just gonna keep releasing more and
Speaker 1: more kind of transmittable diseases to make it look really
Speaker 1: bad at other Biden's watch and people gonna fall for
Speaker 1: that bullshit. I don't know if it's that or I
Speaker 1: just feel like we're in like an apocalyptic error. I
Speaker 1: don't know that's what it's given. Because I saw something
Speaker 1: that first of all COVID cases are going up, there's
Speaker 1: a new v A five variant that's supposed to be
Speaker 1: worse than Dealta and O Macron. I saw that. Then
Speaker 1: there was first person got polio. Um, you know, we're
Speaker 1: dealing with monkey pocks and nobody knows really what's going
Speaker 1: on with that because they don't have all the science
Speaker 1: and the data yet. And there were some other Um,
Speaker 1: there's just a lot of like diseases going around. Some
Speaker 1: are like, oh, it's mild. But I don't believe anything
Speaker 1: at this point because I don't know if I trust
Speaker 1: the WHO, which is why I'm saying that. I believe
Speaker 1: they are releasing them when they get when any time
Speaker 1: it needs to be a distraction or they need to
Speaker 1: just it gets cloth to make Biden look bad. And girl,
Speaker 1: let me tell you about that monkey pox. I ain't
Speaker 1: been to the zoo and years that basically I've been that.
Speaker 1: I'll make a light of it always, but it's just
Speaker 1: it's scary to even think about having monkey pox. Like
Speaker 1: I've seen like people's testimony about how painful it is
Speaker 1: to just have lesions on your skin. And it's so painful,
Speaker 1: and it looks like it looks like kill Monger from
Speaker 1: Black Panther All a little long, but Michael b Joan
Speaker 1: was sexy when he is. Let me say, was that
Speaker 1: monkey pox or was that Black Panther pox? Yeah, like
Speaker 1: he's it's very painful, and they're just talking about the
Speaker 1: like excruciating levels of just pain that they're feeling, you
Speaker 1: know what. It's like. I don't even it's apparently really
Speaker 1: being transmitted amongst gay men right now. So it's just
Speaker 1: it's crazy because y'all know how we're for healthcare organizations,
Speaker 1: so we're talking about this monkey pox all the time.
Speaker 1: Have you bleeding that your rectum that? And they're also
Speaker 1: saying it could possibly be transmitted through seamen. So it's
Speaker 1: just so many things we just don't know, and they haven't.
Speaker 1: I know, today Joe Biden announced like a hundred and
Speaker 1: forty million dollars that he's gonna do for vaccines for
Speaker 1: monkeypox because they also there's a vaccine shortage. There's not
Speaker 1: a vaccine. Everybody around the baby before the show, everything,
Speaker 1: before we get off the show. Today, I want to
Speaker 1: give two prayers out, one to Britney Grinder. Prayers for
Speaker 1: Britney Grinder. When I when I started really researching the situation,
Speaker 1: because you had told me the extreme, the extremities of it.
Speaker 1: But when I watched how tall this woman and y'all
Speaker 1: get her in the fast foot sale. I don't know
Speaker 1: the length of the sale, but the highest so this
Speaker 1: woman can't even stand up straight and stearch your arms
Speaker 1: and her legs out, I don't know the length of it.
Speaker 1: And from when the gap that they just brought home
Speaker 1: that was in the military, that was over there for
Speaker 1: a couple of year, talked about they made him stand
Speaker 1: up twenty three hours a day. And and Britdy Grinder
Speaker 1: looks like a big man. She don't look like a
Speaker 1: man in the face, but she's big, and you know,
Speaker 1: she's a very butch, but she's completely a woman. You
Speaker 1: don't know what they're doing to this woman over there.
Speaker 1: And I just I prayed the guy that this government
Speaker 1: will trade whatever they want to get this woman home
Speaker 1: because who knows what her mental capacity may be. And
Speaker 1: I know that her her trial started, and I'm actually
Speaker 1: more concerned actually now that you brought up Brittan Grid
Speaker 1: because she pled guilty um, and she basically said that
Speaker 1: her doctor in Arizona said that, you know, she was
Speaker 1: she needed cannabis basically for her joints or something like that.
Speaker 1: So the fact that she's now pleaded guilty is um
Speaker 1: making me even more concerned for her safety. And then
Speaker 1: it also kind of makes me a little doubtful that
Speaker 1: they're actually gonna let her come home. So I just
Speaker 1: I'm keeping, you know, my fingers crossed for her. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, her wife has spoken out several times. I'm
Speaker 1: glad that she made her pleader Joe Biden, because like
Speaker 1: I said, they are I knew from the beginning that
Speaker 1: some wasn't right and that they were definitely that Putin
Speaker 1: was trying to use this as a ploy, you know,
Speaker 1: to do whatever to push his agenda. When a kans
Speaker 1: the United States because we're still at war with Russia
Speaker 1: at this point, because Ukraine so um and that's my
Speaker 1: second prayer. Yeah, yeah, So I'm concerned for Britney Griner Ukraine.
Speaker 1: It seems like Russia is actually starting to get the
Speaker 1: upper hand in the Ukrainian War. Um and uh, like
Speaker 1: I said, that's why I feel like we're just in
Speaker 1: like a post apoctal not even post We're in an
Speaker 1: apocalyptic era. We got wars going on, we got you know,
Speaker 1: us citizens that are being taken as prisoners. We've got
Speaker 1: disease outbreaks. It's it's crazy the times that we're living in,
Speaker 1: you know, and high as hell. It's so much in
Speaker 1: fight within the country from from not just from the parties,
Speaker 1: but from racism, from different classes, different and uh, different
Speaker 1: types of people. It's it's just crazy. Also praying side
Speaker 1: President Joe Biden. We've all voted for him, and we
Speaker 1: want Joe. We need Joe. We need Joe to be okay.
Speaker 1: We need you to get well and got to make it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we need Joe to be okay. So yeah, we all
Speaker 1: simultaneously sitting out a press for Joe because it's strengthen numbers,
Speaker 1: because we might be keep keying or whatever. But COVID
Speaker 1: is still out here. It's still real. I still look
Speaker 1: sometimes I had slowed down to my springing. I went
Speaker 1: to Walmart yesterday and stacked up loring, so get ready
