Speaker 1: I put it on somebody yesterday, but it wasn't the
Speaker 1: laughter okay anyway, ha ha. Thank you guys for joining
Speaker 1: us here at Laugh and Learn Um Season three, episode two.
Speaker 1: So much is happening in the world. I planned on
Speaker 1: started about talking about something else, but when I saw
Speaker 1: this tragedy that just happened, another mass shooting that happened
Speaker 1: in Germany. It is it's becoming so common that it's
Speaker 1: scary that it's like, oh, wow, another one. I hate
Speaker 1: that we even feel like that myself. I'm guilty of
Speaker 1: the same thing, like wow, another one, because it's almost
Speaker 1: like as people, we have become numb to all of
Speaker 1: these mass shootings, which will make this like number oh god,
Speaker 1: not a hundred and some forty seven, forty eight this year,
Speaker 1: maybe forty nine, and you know we got that many
Speaker 1: days in the year. Yet it's very, very scary. So
Speaker 1: fres to Germany press, some people who are going through
Speaker 1: all the drama down there. A subject too I want
Speaker 1: to talk about, is it is umof politics. Your President
Speaker 1: Joe Biden did a President Biden did have his a
Speaker 1: speech yesterday talking about the state of the economy and
Speaker 1: what we're facing. And I love what he had to
Speaker 1: say that he was going to start charging some of
Speaker 1: these larger corporations and some of these rich people. But
Speaker 1: I hope you guys read the fan print, because technically
Speaker 1: they will have to pay a little bit more in
Speaker 1: Texas than they did, but they still want to be
Speaker 1: taxed what they should be taxed. I'm not giving body
Speaker 1: to pass on that now. Am I attack in bidement
Speaker 1: that Biden is not following the lead, but that is
Speaker 1: where they've become accustomed to after Donald Trump was in
Speaker 1: the president in office. So please fare attention to your politics,
Speaker 1: to your legislation, vote your colleges. That FoST was gonna
Speaker 1: keep some money in your pocket and keep your family
Speaker 1: feed because things are happening, real crazy everywhere. Speaking of
Speaker 1: crazy things happening, I'm gonna go back. I come back
Speaker 1: to politics. Politics always so heavy. I swear I don't
Speaker 1: want to serve blaket on me right now, but I
Speaker 1: do want to talk about the four Americans that cross
Speaker 1: the border into Matamors, Mexico, just south of Brownsville, Texas.
Speaker 1: Two of were kidnapped to murder, where the other two
Speaker 1: will rescue the live. They were traveling in a white
Speaker 1: minivan the Mexican The Mexican authorities believe that there was
Speaker 1: human traffickers and they had mistaken their identity. What I
Speaker 1: loved about the end of this story. I hate the
Speaker 1: two people lost their life, but I love that the
Speaker 1: Mexican cartel allegedly turned over the perpetrators, you know, because
Speaker 1: it's kind of like they governed their own country. They
Speaker 1: govern their own people. They don't want all that drama
Speaker 1: over there, especially if they're part of the Mexican Cartel.
Speaker 1: They don't need to heat over there. Of all that
Speaker 1: that you are kidnapping people. So if you're traveling to
Speaker 1: another country, whether they be visiting family members or for surgery,
Speaker 1: which is believed to what they were going over there
Speaker 1: for to have some kind of les, let's expensive surgery.
Speaker 1: Because I know I've been to Mexican. I'm guilty of
Speaker 1: going to Mexico to Gualahra myself and getting the breast
Speaker 1: in plants. The Damn Show went left. I think they
Speaker 1: put a breast in planting one cheating and a gummy
Speaker 1: bear and the other or the Damn Show were left
Speaker 1: on me. Please be careful, And because this was many
Speaker 1: years ago, the world is on high alert, right now,
Speaker 1: and people are desperate for money and doing any and
Speaker 1: everything to give money. And I'm glad that those two
Speaker 1: people did that. They did get away or get turned
Speaker 1: back over and they didn't become part of human trafficking.
Speaker 1: Human trafficking is very, very serious all over the world.
Speaker 1: The two survivors were found outside of Metamorals, Mexico. The
Speaker 1: one deceased was inside the house and the other survivors
Speaker 1: was outside of the house. The male survivor was shot
Speaker 1: in the leg and the female survivor is the mother
Speaker 1: of five children who traveled from South Carolina to Mexico
Speaker 1: for a cosmetic procedure and others joined her to help drive. Sometimes,
Speaker 1: you know, they say, you give what you people. I
Speaker 1: am not faulting the victim at all, because I told
Speaker 1: you I am guilty of going to Mexico to have surgery.
Speaker 1: Not that it's a bad thing. It's some great doctors
Speaker 1: in Mexico. It's just that the world is a higher
Speaker 1: and you get to be very hilarious. They see you
Speaker 1: looking like a tourist or like a foreigner. To them,
Speaker 1: you might be oh, they got money, you know, they're traveling,
Speaker 1: and you might become a victim or target. So please
Speaker 1: be careful, keep your head on swivel in the words
Speaker 1: the TTJ who will probably be joining us next week,
Speaker 1: and be cautious because you don't want to say I'm
Speaker 1: just going to have surgery and come right back and
Speaker 1: you end up not coming back or something horrible happened
Speaker 1: to you. One of the victims sustained serious bodily injuries
Speaker 1: doing the attack. The CARTIL has apologized for members who
Speaker 1: who acted under their own decision making and a lack
Speaker 1: of discipline. The four victims are the Tavia Tay McGee,
Speaker 1: Eric James Williams, Shade Water, and Zendale Brown. All victims
Speaker 1: were probed for possible CARTIL late. I think it was
Speaker 1: a case of a stake and identity to I think
Speaker 1: they thought they would over their drugs some others. The
Speaker 1: fifth person, whose name was Sheryl Orange, who traveled with them,
Speaker 1: said they were denied inches because she didn't have a
Speaker 1: photo ID, so her friends took her back to the
Speaker 1: hotel in Brownsville, Texas. Who, if ever, you needed to
Speaker 1: forget your ID Mexican security. Mexican security analysts believe cut
Speaker 1: your leaders offered authorities sacrificial lambs to minimize damage. And
Speaker 1: that there's the only reason for the apology. That is
Speaker 1: a scary story because we do go. You know, surgery
Speaker 1: is expensive and it's a cheaper. You can get medicines
Speaker 1: cheaper in Mexico, surgery cheaper, but sometimes it comes at
Speaker 1: a different cast. So please deletery, be careful. Hopefully you
Speaker 1: know somebody over there, and if you're not a Spanish
Speaker 1: speaking person, you know somebody said you can understand the language,
Speaker 1: because you never know who we in a who's all in?
Speaker 1: Or it could be the cab drivers, it could be
Speaker 1: a lift drivers, It could be so many different people
Speaker 1: that are in on it, and that you do not
Speaker 1: foresee where it's coming from. So please be cautious here
Speaker 1: in America, here in our country when you talk about
Speaker 1: medico more. Bill forty three is trying to be passed
Speaker 1: in Mississippi, Kentucky, and Tennessee, all considered the most religious
Speaker 1: states who are weaponizing in Bill forty three. If you
Speaker 1: are unfamiliar with Bill forty three, we touched on it
Speaker 1: last week. But Bill forty three is a bill that
Speaker 1: would eliminate the requirement open the door for possible child
Speaker 1: marriages same sex marriages, interracial marriages, drag shows. It's so
Speaker 1: many things. Transgender, it is so many things. And Tennessee
Speaker 1: is guaranteeing klerks is that they can deny license to
Speaker 1: same sex, transgender, interracial based on biblical beliefs. So this
Speaker 1: is not even coming from the top. I can walk
Speaker 1: up to the counter and my presentation says transgender, and
Speaker 1: because you've been have the great day and whatever you
Speaker 1: see me and you like, I deny you. It's not
Speaker 1: even coming from government. They're making this personal. This is
Speaker 1: getting out of control. But I'm so sorry that my
Speaker 1: community is the lgbt QI eight plus community, we're fighting
Speaker 1: over pronouns and bathroom rights when we have so much
Speaker 1: more serious stuff happening with us. I hate that, But
Speaker 1: hopefully why they we will come to a happy m
Speaker 1: about that and get things done. Biden has made I
Speaker 1: think Biden will stand with the lgbt community because he
Speaker 1: has always seemed to be very LGBTQ friendly when it
Speaker 1: comes to our rights and the things that we want doing.
Speaker 1: For his budget plank, he proposed a six point eight
Speaker 1: trillion dollars budgets that will increase the military spending and
Speaker 1: a wide range of social program. Oh, we all go
Speaker 1: need counseling and therapy when all we finally come out
Speaker 1: this real pandemic and all this foolishness. But the budget
Speaker 1: will contain five trillion. Proposed text increased his own high
Speaker 1: earners and corporations over a decade, so he's not taxing
Speaker 1: them over the year. He text them over ten years
Speaker 1: to reduce the budget deficits bout three trillion over time
Speaker 1: by taxing the rich and these major corporations. I know,
Speaker 1: it don't seem like it's going to happen. We all
Speaker 1: want instant gratification and sometimes we don't have to play
Speaker 1: the long game. This is one of those tams where
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to play a long game with the
Speaker 1: economy because we're complaining about the prices of aids and gas.
Speaker 1: But the country could be in so much more trouble.
Speaker 1: We could be in so much more trouble if we
Speaker 1: all stop and pay attention to the writings on the wall.
Speaker 1: Because we don't see the writings on the wall. It's
Speaker 1: just it's uncanny that the things that are happening right
Speaker 1: in front of our eyes. Because everybody's complaining, and as
Speaker 1: far as that bill forty three goes with the drag shows.
Speaker 1: I hate that because there was the time when I
Speaker 1: made my entire living all drag shows, but we just
Speaker 1: didn't have the kids involved. We didn't have children involved.
Speaker 1: But it's getting scary and scary because we keep fighting
Speaker 1: as a as a as a community over the wrong foolishness.
Speaker 1: I am. I was thinking about telling you guys that
Speaker 1: this is me, This is me talking. This is not
Speaker 1: the views of some of y'all. But I think that
Speaker 1: with all of the unfold that's happening right now with
Speaker 1: the vaccine and doctor Faulci, and it's supposed to we
Speaker 1: leaked from a Wuhan clang or over in China, I
Speaker 1: think that it's really unfold. I talked about this during
Speaker 1: the pandemic, during coffee time of my non trusts for
Speaker 1: doctor Faulci, because I feel like he was in a
Speaker 1: cruiseial position to where he could have told us, you know,
Speaker 1: if he didn't agree with some things that the president
Speaker 1: at the time was saying when it came down to Corona.
Speaker 1: If you guys did not know that COVID has killed
Speaker 1: seven million people globally, it hasn't went away. It's just
Speaker 1: they don't talk about it as much, but it has
Speaker 1: killed seven million people globally. I don't know what they
Speaker 1: were looking for, what happened. Why would they release something
Speaker 1: so deadly, Why would they even create something so deadly?
Speaker 1: But chemical warfare is very real. And if we're going
Speaker 1: to war, y'all worried about nukes, they can have powertism
Speaker 1: and they can put stuff in the water. I personally
Speaker 1: believe that I have infrastructure is something attack right now,
Speaker 1: which is why we're having so many planes almost crashing
Speaker 1: and then the boards just disappearing. Why the planes are
Speaker 1: in mid air? You know how scary that he is
Speaker 1: because they can't track the plane. They can't tell you,
Speaker 1: but plane is right next to you. The scar stall
Speaker 1: seemed so friendly, and they seem to be getting a
Speaker 1: lot more crowded. But if we have outside influences and
Speaker 1: other forces in our infrastructure, we a lot of us
Speaker 1: could could lose our situations outside of our lambs. You
Speaker 1: know that they get in our water system. It's looking
Speaker 1: like their infrastructure is in the Department of Transportation. And
Speaker 1: I'm not blaming a Buddha Jest for this, because Buddha
Speaker 1: Jest is the Secretary of transportation. But all these trail
Speaker 1: to ravens, back to back to back to back seemed
Speaker 1: so suspicious to me that I don't know. I don't know,
Speaker 1: because it's a rarity. Some things that are rare. Rarity
Speaker 1: is a train derailments, airplanes crash, And it's not to
Speaker 1: say that they don't happen, but now consistently like the
Speaker 1: way they are happening. In January nineteenth of this year
Speaker 1: in the town of East Palace, that am in Ohio,
Speaker 1: ninety seven cards although no cargo and no one was injured, derailed.
Speaker 1: February to third this year, one hundred and fifty freight
Speaker 1: line is carrying toxic chemicals. In the instance, environmental contamination
Speaker 1: did happen? You know? And here's my thing. When President
Speaker 1: Obama was the president, he signed the bill to have
Speaker 1: a certain break put on. I'm gonna tell you what
Speaker 1: the name of the break is, the name of the
Speaker 1: break because I wrote it down, I won't try to
Speaker 1: make sure I wouldn't know what I'm talking about. President
Speaker 1: Obama passed legislation making the mandatory for trains carrying hazardous
Speaker 1: biamable materials to have ECP breaks. But the order was
Speaker 1: rescinded by President Trump see Brocco. President Obama knew what
Speaker 1: was things that could happen impossibly and the writings on
Speaker 1: the wall. He foresayd some things. But then you put
Speaker 1: somebody in office that didn't know the job. You know,
Speaker 1: that was a little incompetent to the job that they
Speaker 1: were elected for. And this is the situation that we have.
Speaker 1: That's why y'all keep saying Biden is too old, too
Speaker 1: old for whom he's still in the job. The other
Speaker 1: was younger, but he didn't do the job. You're gonna
Speaker 1: have to make a choice and make up your man.
Speaker 1: March fourth this year. Second the realm involved the same
Speaker 1: company in Norfolk Southern in Clark County Fairgrounds in Springfield, Ohio.
Speaker 1: At the time, no hazardous chemicals weren't on board, but
Speaker 1: residents was asked to shelter in place. All of these
Speaker 1: train derailments look like that they are in our infrastructure
Speaker 1: and that train because here's the thing. I don't even
Speaker 1: understand why you will put certain kind of chemicals on
Speaker 1: the same train. I know some of these cars be
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty cars, two hundred cards, but if
Speaker 1: you're gonna put gas in three cars behind and then
Speaker 1: separate them back two but then put another toxic chemicals
Speaker 1: that don't go with gas, and you know if they meet,
Speaker 1: it's going to be massively explosive. Why would you do
Speaker 1: dumb shit like that? That's just some dumb shit to me.
Speaker 1: I don't work for the railway system. I'm just saying.
Speaker 1: And in addition, this year, South Carolina has had three
Speaker 1: derailments Lake City, Las Laws and Enori, two in rural California,
Speaker 1: one each in metropolitan Detroit, Philadelphia, Alabama, Alaska, Louisiana, and
Speaker 1: Texas and Nebraska. Was happening is I think that the
Speaker 1: infrastructure is old. I think they need to go in
Speaker 1: and revap it. But where's the money for that? That
Speaker 1: is part of the Secretary of Transportation and it's coming
Speaker 1: from the top. We need money to procee train systems
Speaker 1: that we got to commute and we all rely on
Speaker 1: the train. You made our kiss the train, but the
Speaker 1: train is a commute for a lot of products that
Speaker 1: we use on a daily basis, so we definitely need
Speaker 1: the trains to go across country. I think a lot
Speaker 1: of these railway systems are older and a lot of
Speaker 1: these tracks need to be updated, which will mean more
Speaker 1: jobs and more work for the American people. Let's do it.
Speaker 1: Let's get it done. Y'all found money for everything else.
Speaker 1: You found money for anything you want to found money
Speaker 1: for strong believer that whatever it is important to you,
Speaker 1: you make what is important to you. You make it
Speaker 1: happen when it's important to you. Don't seem like it's
Speaker 1: that important to me. What is it going to take?
Speaker 1: And then I hate to asset because I don't want
Speaker 1: a real answer, because I would hate to see people,
Speaker 1: innocent people lose their lives because somebody else dropped the
Speaker 1: ball and doing their job. The East Palestine incidents have
Speaker 1: been have bombarded criticism toward the railway sector and Transportation
Speaker 1: Secretary Booty Jais. They are always looking for skategoat, skategoat
Speaker 1: scape goat who I couldn't get that out. He just
Speaker 1: happens to be the man in charge of the secretary
Speaker 1: right now of Transportation, i e. Against Norfolk Southern and
Speaker 1: the federal government for the lack of clean up. The
Speaker 1: incident that occurred on February third, twenty twenty three, in
Speaker 1: the East Palestine involved thirty eight Norfolk Southern carriages. Close
Speaker 1: to five thousand residents had to be evacuated because of
Speaker 1: the chemical spill. Five tankers were carrying vinyl coreide material
Speaker 1: to make plastic pipings, wires, cable coding, car parts, and packaging.
Speaker 1: Residents have been allowed to return home per the EPA
Speaker 1: and Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Real experts contribute crashings
Speaker 1: to compromise safety measures and reduce workforces part of an
Speaker 1: effort to boost rail company profits. It's always a dollar behind, somebody,
Speaker 1: always trying to make money, and the sacrifice, the sacrificial lands,
Speaker 1: unfortunately be the American people. Oh. I don't like that. Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't like that. I don't like that. I don't
Speaker 1: like that. And if Trump would have just kept that
Speaker 1: ECP break in place, it possibly couldn't help because it
Speaker 1: could have stopped the trains. Now, you do have to
Speaker 1: understand that no train will stop instantaneously. Nothing happens instantaneously.
Speaker 1: The train takes about a mile and a half to stop,
Speaker 1: depending on the weight and how much baggage is carrying.
Speaker 1: But they estimated about a mile to a mile and
Speaker 1: a half when it's anything more than twenty five cards.
Speaker 1: I read that I don't know that for a fact,
Speaker 1: because I'm not a conductor. Plus that y'all don't hire
Speaker 1: us to be conducted in no way. Remember, we couldn't.
Speaker 1: We weren't good enough to do the job. So who
Speaker 1: crashed these day of training? I'm asking for a friend,
Speaker 1: LEBYO saw my ship on hill. The reason was happening
Speaker 1: with America and all this instantaneous everybody wants to turnaround,
Speaker 1: to turn around the turnaround, including my trans sistance, because
Speaker 1: they got a big debate right now on social media
Speaker 1: about pronouns and all this foolishness. Here's the thing, you
Speaker 1: know who I blame for this? I want to start
Speaker 1: off by saying that I blamed the eSPI Awards. Not
Speaker 1: that I have anything against the eSPI Awards, but I
Speaker 1: think that when they allowed Kayla Jenner to be become
Speaker 1: Woman of the Year, Kayla Jenner went into the into
Speaker 1: a closet and came out fifteen minutes later as a woman.
Speaker 1: So that discredits all the women around the world, professional athletes,
Speaker 1: anybody else that couldn't have been Woman of the Year
Speaker 1: for its microwave. Woman of the Year, y'all made it
Speaker 1: look like it was okay. But I went back and
Speaker 1: I just looked at that award show when they scanned
Speaker 1: the audience with the camera. If you can see the
Speaker 1: look on some of those athletes and some of those
Speaker 1: women's faces when they crowned Kayla Jenner Woman of the Year,
Speaker 1: it was it was in such distaste the looks on
Speaker 1: their faces, and with resentment and and and very well deserved.
Speaker 1: Let me just say that, because if you're gonna give
Speaker 1: a bitch woman of a Year, you should have gave
Speaker 1: it to be at least I would have worked cute
Speaker 1: dress glads. But it sent the message and every sense thing.
Speaker 1: It looks like my community have taken that message and
Speaker 1: ran with it, and it has backfired on us. Nothing
Speaker 1: is instant. Nothing happens in five minutes and ten minutes.
Speaker 1: Everything takes time. If you are making a soup, it
Speaker 1: takes time to put those ingredients in a little by little.
Speaker 1: You can't put it all in the party at one
Speaker 1: time because it's not gonna come out to what you
Speaker 1: wanted it to be. Everything is done with a gradual pace,
Speaker 1: with patience and love and care, understanding. Hope. But we
Speaker 1: want it right now, right now, and right now. Nothing
Speaker 1: happens right now but death and bills, shit, tragedy, drama.
Speaker 1: So take your time, see who you are, Understand who
Speaker 1: you are. I stop looking for acceptance from everybody else.
Speaker 1: If you ain't accepted who the hell you are? That
Speaker 1: is on My only message to that to my trans sisters, says,
Speaker 1: don't put you on to put me on blast and
Speaker 1: say I'm not a trans woman. You can keep telling
Speaker 1: me what I am not because what I ain't, because
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep reminding what you ain't gonna never be. Okay,
Speaker 1: did you cass that? Did you kiss that? Okay? I
Speaker 1: just want to make sure you heard what I was
Speaker 1: saying because we are in a place of crucial time
Speaker 1: and scary tragedy and bs. I need to tell you
Speaker 1: guys that on April the twenty second, next month, they're
Speaker 1: having a Black Effect Festival in Atlanta, Georgia at the
Speaker 1: Poolman Yards and it's gonna be hosted by Charlomagne, The Guy,
Speaker 1: My Boss, My Boy, and Miss Jest Hilarious, We see
Speaker 1: what the fucking man do. Horrible Decisions will be there.
Speaker 1: Eighty five South will be part of that show. Michelle Willis,
Speaker 1: We're part of that show. And I forgot the other
Speaker 1: two girls named from a Housewives of Potomac. But it's
Speaker 1: gonna be major. You guys, come on out, hobnob and
Speaker 1: celebrate with us that we've been doing black effect for
Speaker 1: three years, having a great time while doing it, teaching,
Speaker 1: pushing the culture. They're still looking for people to come
Speaker 1: on as guest hosts on the Breakfast Club. So you
Speaker 1: never know who you might be, who you may have
Speaker 1: now with, and which you may leave, which you may
Speaker 1: leave will where you will leave on farm than you can.
Speaker 1: But you may leave with a job, which is always
Speaker 1: most important. I like jobs. I damn sure like anybody
Speaker 1: messing with my jobs either. With the infrastructure infrastructure bill
Speaker 1: that President Biden is trying to pass as far as finances,
Speaker 1: he Umbaire to propose outline in Philadelphia. His budget is
Speaker 1: investing in America and all of America. His first two years,
Speaker 1: he signed laws to reveal infrastructures would supported all Americans.
Speaker 1: The president believes that the way to grow the economy
Speaker 1: is to invest in the middle class and working families.
Speaker 1: His budget is to deliver affordable child care for parents,
Speaker 1: home care for older Americans, and disable people to get
Speaker 1: permanent expanded healthcare assistance. Through the Affordable Care Act. He
Speaker 1: included guaranteed pay lead for workers, free community college, and
Speaker 1: free kindergarten for students. Lastly, additional assistance for lower housing
Speaker 1: calls for homeowners and wrenters. I'll take the last the rent,
Speaker 1: and I'll take the childcare because as a parent of
Speaker 1: three kids and I was a single parent, that was
Speaker 1: one of the most expensive things to do was to
Speaker 1: get childcare. Even if you got it through welfare or
Speaker 1: through through government assistance, it was such it was so
Speaker 1: challenging to find places that you felt like your kid
Speaker 1: would feel would be safe, and that you could just
Speaker 1: walk in. I personally never liked home day cares and
Speaker 1: or friends to watch my children because I wanted them
Speaker 1: to not be too comfortable, and I wanted a place
Speaker 1: that I could walk in at any given time to
Speaker 1: see what the hell is happening with my kids. We
Speaker 1: have to lock doors now because people are so crazy,
Speaker 1: But back when my kids were kids, which was shit
Speaker 1: seventeen eighteen years ago, I like places, whether the facility
Speaker 1: you could just walk in because they'll never know when
Speaker 1: you were coming, and you could always see what was
Speaker 1: happening with your kid. Lots of tragedy, and it's happened
Speaker 1: in daycare and babysitting services now because people don't pay
Speaker 1: attention to the kids. And sometimes these children are too
Speaker 1: young to tell you exactly what somebody has done to them.
Speaker 1: But then when you when they come up with a
Speaker 1: bite or a broken bone or an ailment, you know,
Speaker 1: you like you question it, but then there's no cameras.
Speaker 1: You know, if you like me, I'm one of them
Speaker 1: parents like I'm ready to fight with everybody about my key.
Speaker 1: I'm ready to fight with everyone about my kid. But
