Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to woke f Daily with
Speaker 1: me your girl, Daniel Moody recording from the home Bunker. Folks,
Speaker 1: I am a bit unwealth and have been for the
Speaker 1: last week. I've had allergies and a cold that has
Speaker 1: turned into pink eye, which I had once as a
Speaker 1: child and now have. So if you're watching this video
Speaker 1: and you're like, something doesn't seem right, that's the thing
Speaker 1: that doesn't seem right. But thankfully it's not painful, and
Speaker 1: I am hopefully on the mend from all of the above.
Speaker 1: Things that out of the way, Let's talk today about
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court on this fucking Friday, because I do
Speaker 1: not have a list of topics, but I have a
Speaker 1: list of things that I fucking hate about this Supreme Court. First,
Speaker 1: all this week the Supreme Court has been busy showing
Speaker 1: us exactly how little they care about women and people
Speaker 1: with uteruses as actual people. Apparently, according to Alito, women
Speaker 1: are nothing more than incubators, right, so who cares if
Speaker 1: they die during childbirth? Who cares if they need emergency
Speaker 1: medical attention? Because Alito, who apparently went to medical school
Speaker 1: and law school. Oh that's right, No, he didn't he
Speaker 1: just went to law school, fancies himself playing a doctor
Speaker 1: in the courtroom and wanting to talk about, well, what
Speaker 1: really constitutes an emergency. I will say this, I have
Speaker 1: never given birth, and I've never been pregnant. I have
Speaker 1: had friends and family members that have been, and I
Speaker 1: never really understood until my true adult years, over the
Speaker 1: last couple of years of my friends giving birth, just
Speaker 1: how fucking complicated and how serious pregnancy and labor are,
Speaker 1: and that they have said often that a woman is
Speaker 1: never closer to death than when she is giving birth.
Speaker 1: And why is that? Well, because, aside from apparently the
Speaker 1: Hallmark movies and Disney, which is where it seems like
Speaker 1: the male justices on the court, the five male justices
Speaker 1: on the Court have gotten their medical degrees from child birth.
Speaker 1: And pregnancy is not like a movie. It's not neat
Speaker 1: and clean. It is in a lot of ways honestly horrific. Right.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of blood, a lot of guts, a
Speaker 1: lot of excrement. There is a lot of shit literally
Speaker 1: and figuratively that happens during childbirth. And to be a
Speaker 1: woman and a person with the uterists who comes in
Speaker 1: for an emergency, and this is the case that is
Speaker 1: being heard before the Supreme Court. Right now, something is wrong.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm saying? Because this is not
Speaker 1: about the choice of becoming a parent or not. This
Speaker 1: is about a person who is already in their pregnancy,
Speaker 1: far along in their pregnancy, but is experiencing an emergency,
Speaker 1: which unfortunately happens a lot, right, and to go into
Speaker 1: an emergency room. And what we have heard are stories
Speaker 1: of people being turned away, pregnant people being turned away
Speaker 1: because the hospital doesn't want to be held liable so
Speaker 1: you're on your own, or doctors deciding trying to figure
Speaker 1: out and be on the phone with their lawyers about
Speaker 1: how long a person has to be in an emergency situation,
Speaker 1: whether that be bleeding out, losing oxygen for them to
Speaker 1: be able to proceed with an abortion to save the
Speaker 1: life of the mother. Right, it is wild to me
Speaker 1: to listen to these justices is particularly the five male justices,
Speaker 1: care not one single solitary fucking ounce about women. And
Speaker 1: I got to tell you, you know, there was a
Speaker 1: meme that was going around on Instagram that I saw
Speaker 1: and it was a white woman who I think I
Speaker 1: married a man from I can't remember a country, but
Speaker 1: he's not wasn't from the United States. And he said,
Speaker 1: you know, before I came to the United States, all
Speaker 1: of the news and the headlines and all of these
Speaker 1: things would make me believe that America it's like this
Speaker 1: glorious place for women, right like, look at women in power,
Speaker 1: look at CEOs, look at you know, all these advancements
Speaker 1: that women have had. And then she said her husband
Speaker 1: came here and realized that America hates women, and they do.
Speaker 1: And he's just like every single policy around pregnancy, around
Speaker 1: maternal care, around you know, what women can and can't
Speaker 1: do is extraordinary. And that's what this all boils down to.
Speaker 1: I think that when you were looking at this Idaho case,
Speaker 1: which we all know is going to have extraordinary ripple
Speaker 1: effects outside of Idaho, this isn't really about Idaho. This
Speaker 1: is about the United States as a whole. It is
Speaker 1: about the safety and the well being of women. And
Speaker 1: the fact is that in this country we don't care
Speaker 1: about women. And it's not even that we don't care
Speaker 1: about women. I actually think this country hates women. And
Speaker 1: I think that what these justices and the Republican Party
Speaker 1: are doing is punishing women for having made and having
Speaker 1: had the audacity to make any advancements inside of this
Speaker 1: patriarchical society. To me, that's the only thing that makes sense,
Speaker 1: because we have modern science, we're an industrialized nation. Before
Speaker 1: modern science and modern medicine, more than half of the
Speaker 1: women that would give birth would die. And the fact
Speaker 1: that these men are not only willing and able, but
Speaker 1: they're cheering on the ability to drag women back to
Speaker 1: the nineteenth century like they did in Arizona. Even though
Speaker 1: most recently now the Democrats with a slim majority and
Speaker 1: a few handful of Republicans that have voted to overturn
Speaker 1: the eighteen sixty four piece of legislation that acts as
Speaker 1: an abortion ban in that state. It still has to
Speaker 1: go through the Senate. But they were cheering the Republicans
Speaker 1: when they passed this. This is not about feigning ignorance,
Speaker 1: like you don't know the danger that you're causing. You
Speaker 1: do know. People are telling you. The victims of these
Speaker 1: laws in these red states are testifying, and they are
Speaker 1: telling you what they have been put through. That women
Speaker 1: who wanted to be mothers and had emergency situations, and
Speaker 1: because they did not receive the care that they needed,
Speaker 1: were then forced into unthinkable situations and are now infertile.
Speaker 1: So the state that is supposedly pro life robbed them
Speaker 1: of the ability to become parents, the very thing that
Speaker 1: they say that they want, but only on their terms
Speaker 1: and in their way. So cruelty really is the point.
Speaker 1: Punishment is the point. And you don't do that to
Speaker 1: people that you don't hate, right. You supposedly punish criminals,
Speaker 1: people who break the law. Right. So this system that
Speaker 1: is being set up, if you are a woman and
Speaker 1: living in Idaho and you happen to be pregnant right now,
Speaker 1: God be with you, you know, And I mean that
Speaker 1: like literally because six women, as they were hearing this
Speaker 1: case before the Supreme Court, six women had to be
Speaker 1: airlifted to other states to receive the abortions that they needed.
Speaker 1: This is not like a planned cesarean right, where like,
Speaker 1: oh everything as well, but at two o'clock today, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have a baby. These are emergency situations where every
Speaker 1: second is precious, is the difference between life and death,
Speaker 1: and you're forcing an unnecessarily risky and dangerous situation for
Speaker 1: no other reason than because you believe in life. How
Speaker 1: does that even make sense? How does that hypocrisy even stand.
Speaker 1: But that's where we are. And so I look at
Speaker 1: this unelected body of these nine black robes that are
Speaker 1: reigning over America right now and turning it into one
Speaker 1: of the most dangerous places in the world to be
Speaker 1: a pregnant person. And people will say, well, why can't
Speaker 1: they just go to another state? Well, here's the thing, Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know between flights, hotels, you know, like does
Speaker 1: your insurance? Is your insurance covered this? That? And the
Speaker 1: other thing, like the unnecessary economic burden that is being
Speaker 1: placed on people. A doctor was interviewed this week on
Speaker 1: Joy Reach show on MSNBC who left Idaho, and you know,
Speaker 1: she was asked very clearly, like is it safe to
Speaker 1: be a doctor there in obgyn somebody specializing in maternal
Speaker 1: health and care? She said, no, That's why I left.
Speaker 1: I wanted to provide care to people, particularly vulnerable populations
Speaker 1: that needed it. And now I'm in a situation where
Speaker 1: if I provide the kind of care that people need,
Speaker 1: particularly in these emergency situations, I could go to jail.
Speaker 1: Who can do their job under that kind of duress,
Speaker 1: is what she asked. You can't possibly make the necessary
Speaker 1: decisions that doctors have to make in an instant and
Speaker 1: make them clear when you're going to be worried about
Speaker 1: whether or not you're going to jail. I haven't lived
Speaker 1: through other times. I wasn't alive in the nineteen sixties,
Speaker 1: but I can honestly say from the history that I've
Speaker 1: read and studied, I can't think of a darker time
Speaker 1: in America than right now. And the reason why I
Speaker 1: say that is not because of the times when you know,
Speaker 1: literally lynchings were happening every single day. So I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about it in terms of violence, but I'm talking
Speaker 1: about it in terms of ideological violence and danger that
Speaker 1: where we are currently and where we are headed is
Speaker 1: so backwards and so dangerous for so many people other
Speaker 1: than straight cis rich white men, that I don't know
Speaker 1: if America continues on this path, if it survives. And
Speaker 1: that is just me being honest, because you know, I
Speaker 1: say this as for those you know, you listen to me,
Speaker 1: you follow me on social media, and I've said that, like,
Speaker 1: the courts are not going to save us from Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: But it's the insidious nature and the cancer of trump
Speaker 1: Ism that to me is a bigger problem than the
Speaker 1: man himself. Now, that doesn't mean that I'm saying, like,
Speaker 1: don't vote in November for Biden. I am saying vote
Speaker 1: for Biden, even given all of the ways that many
Speaker 1: people are going to have to hold their nose and
Speaker 1: swallow their pride and their integrity to do so. Because
Speaker 1: the only way that these decisions are not you know,
Speaker 1: these state by state draconian decisions have not taken hold
Speaker 1: nationwide is because the fact that we have a Democrat
Speaker 1: as President of the United States right now that changes.
Speaker 1: Then all that's are off. There will be no safe space,
Speaker 1: there will be no safe space to go. And so
Speaker 1: I really am desperately worried and concerned about the future
Speaker 1: of this country. As I know that many of you
Speaker 1: who listen and DM and you know, and tweet and
Speaker 1: all of these things you know, do and say. Is
Speaker 1: that like, you're not alone in your fear, because listening
Speaker 1: to these Supreme Court justices and their line of questioning
Speaker 1: just shows you how truly depraved and cruel they really are.
Speaker 1: And the fact is is that if we do not
Speaker 1: you know, if Biden in a second term doesn't have
Speaker 1: the courage, the moral courage to do a lot of things.
Speaker 1: But the moral courage to expand the court, then we
Speaker 1: are fucked as a country. And you know, you have
Speaker 1: also the presidential immunity case that these justices are deciding,
Speaker 1: like you know, apparently you know, the other forty four
Speaker 1: presidents that were able to operate before Donald Trump became president, like,
Speaker 1: we're able to do so without full immunity because they
Speaker 1: weren't criminals. And so instead of the Supreme Court just
Speaker 1: taking the lower court's decision and saying, yeah, nowhere in
Speaker 1: the constitution, like, nor are we even going to open
Speaker 1: up Pandora's boxing this way, because somebody far worse than
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, if you can even imagine what far worse
Speaker 1: would be, will abuse any bit of the immunity that
Speaker 1: they had. So that means that if you're president of
Speaker 1: the United States and Donald Trump's world, and you decide
Speaker 1: to kill the first Lady of the United States, you
Speaker 1: can do so. You could do it in the fucking
Speaker 1: White House, You can do it in the residence. Who
Speaker 1: going to stop you? Right, you have somebody that's running
Speaker 1: against you for office and you don't like that person,
Speaker 1: you could kill them. Who's going to stop you? Because
Speaker 1: according to Donald Trump's attorneys, you would need to be
Speaker 1: impeached in both the House and the Senate, and then
Speaker 1: that would still need to go to court to decide
Speaker 1: whether or not you had the ability to commit murder.
Speaker 1: So like, these justices right now are literally playing with
Speaker 1: people's lives and they don't care. And so the callousness
Speaker 1: that is being shown, the cruelty, and the depravity that
Speaker 1: is being shown, is really at the core of the
Speaker 1: Republican Party. I will close with this today, which is
Speaker 1: that for those people who continue to say, like I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna be able to stomach voting for Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to vote for Joe Biden, then
Speaker 1: just like, go find yourself the red hat that says
Speaker 1: make America great again and put it on because under
Speaker 1: a Trump regime you will be required to do so.
Speaker 1: Because if you are not hailing mind Trump, then you're
Speaker 1: gonna be sent off. So make your decisions now, not
Speaker 1: based on who you like. Make your decisions now on
Speaker 1: what kind of fucking country you want to live in
Speaker 1: or the ability to at least fight for the one
Speaker 1: that you want to live in. Because if you're seeing
Speaker 1: what is happening at these college campuses right now and
Speaker 1: you're watching them call in and the fucking national not
Speaker 1: the National Guard, but the state troopers and the State
Speaker 1: guards and all of these things and violently break up
Speaker 1: what is a largely peaceful protest of young people saying
Speaker 1: we don't want our tuition dollars to go to fund
Speaker 1: a genocide. And you're thinking, like, oh, those kids should
Speaker 1: just go. But first of all, you know, let us
Speaker 1: always remember that it is young people, whether it was
Speaker 1: in the civil rights movement, the labor movement, the women's movement,
Speaker 1: it is young people that are always on the fucking
Speaker 1: front lines and they're always right. History always shows that
Speaker 1: when young people are the ones that are rising up
Speaker 1: about an issue right and the establishment is saying quiet down, you,
Speaker 1: you know, know, good doers and like what have you,
Speaker 1: that the establishment turns out to be fucking wrong. Donald
Speaker 1: Trump wanted the ability to shoot protesters outside of Lafayette
Speaker 1: Square following the killing of George Floyd. It was General
Speaker 1: Millie that said, you can't do that. That's against the law.
Speaker 1: If Donald Trump has presidential immunity, and he then now
Speaker 1: orders that you clear this area of these hooligans, and
Speaker 1: I don't care who lives or dies, and there's no
Speaker 1: responsibility or accountability that is attached to that, and then
Speaker 1: he has the ability to pardon all of the people
Speaker 1: that take out his axe. Folks, that's what you will
Speaker 1: be fucking sitting out of and deciding that you can't
Speaker 1: stomach Joe Biden. So just be really fucking clear right
Speaker 1: about the decisions that you're making. That's all I ask.
Speaker 1: That is it for me today, Dear friends on Woke
Speaker 1: app as always, power to the people and to all
Speaker 1: the people. Power, get woke and stay woke as fuck.
Speaker 1: M
