You know Trump announced, 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:41.640 you know, I have to Yeah, that's probably the single 0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:44.719 biggest news. No, I got one bigger than that, but 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.200 go ahead, no, no, you know I want to hear 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:54.800 something bigger. There's a Indi Calu form of texting. Sent 0:04:54.920 --> 0:05:00.760 me a yung sent me um a new was clipping up. 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:07.839 The governor in Virginia, Glen Yorkan Republican, has introduced a 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:13.080 new elementary history curriculum that removes all mentions of Dr 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:17.679 Martin Luther King jr. Mm hmm. That's bigger than Trump 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:21.720 announcing his presidency. You want you want, you want me 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:25.880 to tell you why? Because it shows it shows us 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:33.600 that the Republicans are getting in in their switching history 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:38.400 and turning history around. There. They're they're um kicking us 0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.800 all the way out of the out of the history 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:45.400 for one. You know, so if you can overturn ROEVI Wade, 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:50.839 then you know, next is the affirmative action that's on 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:56.640 the table now, Okay, So ROEVI Wade overturned, affirmative action overturned. 0:05:57.480 --> 0:06:00.920 The next is gonna be voting rice overturned, and then 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:05.480 after that it's gonna be let's put them back in slavery. Okay. 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.640 So that's why I think that that announcement right here, 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:15.640 with the governor out of Virginia, UM, kicking Dr Martin 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:20.800 Luther King out of his history curriculum, as soon to 0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:25.800 spread across the country. As you know Florida, UM, Florida's 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:31.680 governor descentis run. The sentis Okay, he's making it illegal 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:40.080 two put guilt on white people for slavery. I'm not 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:43.000 making this up, I know. But it's it's you know, 0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:46.839 it's it's in it passed. Did it pass? I'm not sure? 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:52.560 I'm thinking did really? I'm not sure I think your passed. Bro. 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:57.360 Here's like, when I listened to all the things that 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.039 you just said, when I listened to you lay the 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:04.960 case out, it's I would be remissed to not ask 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:11.560 the question where are and where were the Democrats as 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:18.040 these things happened. You see, all throughout our existence in 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.800 this country, from slavery on, starting with slavery, this is 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.880 we didn't start with slavery, but let's start that slavery 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:29.760 from here on, where they where they? You know? Yeah, 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:35.960 so for so from that point on, there's been two 0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:42.720 primary parties, Democrats Republicans. With all of this stuff that happened, 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:48.679 there's already there's always been one party. If something bad happened, 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:52.240 there was always one party that you point to, But 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:55.200 there was always one party that had happened on their watch, 0:07:56.680 --> 0:07:59.320 whether it was a Democrat or the Republicans, it's still 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:03.200 happened on their watch. So when bad things happen, let's say, 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:06.960 let's say black, let's just say black people do vote Democrat, right, 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.360 for most black people vote Democrats. At so at one point, 0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:14.960 most black people were voting Republicans regardless of what which 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:21.440 party was. When they voted for whatever party they voted 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:26.840 for and still got mistreated. What did the other side 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.720 who was in power do to reach over and say 0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:32.400 black people, I'm not gonna treat you that bad. Look 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:35.200 what I got for you. You voted for them. But 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:39.199 look with me, I love you, I'll help you. I don't. 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:40.920 I want to see you do better. And this is 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.120 what I'm doing in my district to help you. This 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:46.240 is what I'm doing in my city to welcome you. You 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:50.480 You see, so that both are always at the table 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:53.520 when the bullshit is going down. Right now, all of 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.160 this stuff that's happened in this legislation that's being moved 0:08:56.280 --> 0:09:00.920 is being moved on the Democrats watch. And so in 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:04.160 my opinion, all of the asses are sitting right at 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.320 the table and they're all eaten from that same But 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:09.760 you gotta look at the division, you know in the numbers. Okay, 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:16.479 if it's um uh, if it's more Republicans and Democrats, 0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:19.880 and the Democrats are gonna be our voters, You're awareness right. 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:21.840 I hear what you're saying. I hear what you're saying. 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:25.080 But what I'm saying is that even if they're I voted, 0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:29.040 they still have you still have Democrats who have a 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:31.880 certain level of power in Congress. And but let's move 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.400 past Congress here. Even on the municipal level, on the 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.400 local level, on the local and state level, a lot 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.280 a lot of things can be done. When you got 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.960 hold entire cities that are ran by Democrats and black 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.400 people are suffering. You understand what I'm saying. So that's 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:49.079 it's important to acknowledge that. Well, that's that's that's not 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.760 by accident, that's by design. I know that. And it's 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.280 the same thing which you have entire cities that are 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:57.160 ran by Republicans and black people are suffering. It's the 0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:01.240 same ship, bro, It's the ships. So it's like we 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:05.280 gotta go for self, like funk all these motherfucker's fun 0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:08.120 them all because I'm gonna tell you something. Yeah, Trump 0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:11.559 announced his presidency and just like when I realized when 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:13.760 I was sitting in that news at that news station 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:19.680 when he won in twenty what was that when you know, Willie, 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:24.120 he didn't win in seen did he? So when he 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.559 won in sixteen and I realized when I saw that 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:29.319 that red wave and I saw that ship happening, and 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:34.439 I was like, oh, Dave and elect this du fist, 0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:39.000 this dumb super dumby, this super dumby is about to 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:42.000 be the president of the United States. Like we couldn't 0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:46.760 do better than that, this crude dumb it, this this 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.559 futher who cheated on tests, didn't even take his own test. 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:53.040 It's just that to take his test for him. This dude, 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.920 this dude, it's about to be the president, I said, 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:01.800 and you know what I said, That's what it is. Uh, 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.920 it ain't gonna stop me because the rest of them 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:07.880 didn't stop me. So far, we survived every single weeket 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:13.559 President that this country has produced, every single one, we've survived. 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.080 And so we've survived every single one and not just survived. 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.160 We thried, we we we. I just don't think. I 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.520 just don't think that that too many people could have, 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:24.520 too many people could have done better than what we've 0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:28.320 been able to do, considering that we are targeted by 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:32.559 our own government for fel Is it safe to say that, um, 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:39.840 black people are feared, absolutely feared, or is it safe 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:44.760 to say that, um, but they they're afraid that we 0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:47.920 might want revenge or some ship. I don't think that's 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:50.079 really what it is, because if you if we want 0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:54.000 to revenge, we'd got it by now exactly. Don't have 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:57.079 to don't. I don't have to wait for legislation the 0:11:57.160 --> 0:12:00.600 past to get revenge. And we wanted to revenge instead 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.719 of killing black people black people out there killing each other, 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:08.720 they'd be doing something something else. So we and they 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:11.600 do have the power to do something else if they 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.840 wanted to. So if we wanted revenge, we could get revenge. 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:17.240 We could kick it off, like some of these people 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.400 are acting like black people are scared to kick it off. 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.760 Like black people don't have a problem killing. They just ain't. 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:26.600 They just ain't turn their energy in the right direction yet. Damn, 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:34.680 that's that's the point. Yeah, So so Trump, you know him? Him? 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:38.600 Like the trip part about him. This is the biggest part, Brad. 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.480 This is the biggest part about him being allowed to 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:50.559 run again. This guy organized a coup government. He organized 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:56.520 the coup the US government. That he should hang for that, 0:12:57.120 --> 0:13:00.679 they should bring back hanging and start with him for that. 0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:07.679 He organized a coup to overthrow the US government. And 0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:12.120 they're allowing him instead. They didn't put him in jail, 0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:18.160 they didn't prosecute him. They are allowing him. When they 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:20.640 had they had a chance to stick it to him 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:22.679 where he could never run again, and they let him 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:26.120 off the hook. So they allowed him. They're allowing him 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:28.280 now to run again, which makes me think the whole 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:31.360 thing is rigged anyway, It's like, how does it do? 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:33.480 How does that something like that happen? If you don't 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:37.800 want it to happen, if the collective body doesn't want 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:40.640 it to happen, how does that happen? And I would 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:45.040 not and I would not. I would not underestimate his 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:49.800 ability to actually pull off another wind, because remember everybody 0:13:49.920 --> 0:13:53.199 underestimated him last time and he got in. But what 0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:57.160 about what about when he has to stand in front 0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:00.920 of them the form and speak, you know, the debate, 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:05.199 and people started picking apart his ship because you know, 0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:09.240 he's not gonna be the only Republican uh in his race. 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:12.800 You are aware of that, right, do you think that 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:20.680 his um the people that's running against him are gonna 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:26.280 be afraid that they're gonna lose the base, you know, 0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:30.680 lose their base because of what they don't say. They 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:34.840 don't have the balls. The Republican Party, as Deal Hugley said, 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:38.280 it's full of a bunch of cowards. They are cowards, 0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:42.880 even even and miss McConnell included first, with all of 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:45.400 that power, with all of that power that they that 0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:48.800 they will with those seats that they have, they are 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.360 cowards when it comes to Donald Trump. They are so 0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:55.080 afraid of losing a few votes, losing their position. See 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:59.280 that's what they cling to. They cling to, They cling 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:01.800 to that session. Let me ask you a question. Position 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:05.880 more than they want America to be united. They want 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.480 that position more than they want America to be healed. 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:11.200 Do you they don't care about that position? Do you 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:14.320 think that the other Republicans that are gonna run are 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:16.520 gonna try to tap into his base and use that 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:19.560 same type of rhetoric, like that same kind of ship. 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:21.680 They ain't got the ball? Do you think Pince No, 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.760 do you think penc will come out and and uh 0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:29.840 announced that that he's a racist? And he only want 0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:33.320 to because that's basically what Donald Trump did in the 0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:36.520 nutshell and that's what fired up is based so fucking 0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:40.440 hard because he did not you know how how we 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:46.240 have to um denounce uh being an anti semitic or 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:52.680 something being anti semitic, like like denounced that, but don't 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:56.400 denounce that you're a racist like he never said he 0:15:56.600 --> 0:16:00.360 wasn't or he never Well what's understood? Don't have to 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:02.520 be sick. Yeah, I don't give a damn it he 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:04.720 says he's a racist or not. But I'm just saying 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:08.400 some people on him saying that if he's some people 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.720 ride on him saying that. You know what I mean, Like, 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:12.840 if he says he's not racist, he's not a racist, 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:14.960 he says he's and he's not anti Semitic, he's not 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:20.200 anti Semitic, knowing deep down his heart, you know, Like, 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:24.240 what does it matter? Yeah, Yeah, he's still gonna push 0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:26.960 forth his agenda. And I still and and I believe 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:31.720 in all honesty that they're gonna try to run and 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.080 tap into his base. They're gonna run on that same 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:38.600 type of fucking rhetoric, you know, taking away. You know, 0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:42.480 I heard some ship that was profound Willie, And I 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:45.160 don't know if I told you this, but everything that 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:51.880 we have was granted by a judge. Yeah, everything that 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:55.120 everybody has. That's not true. Not white people are born 0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:59.840 into They're born into privilege. He's born into being able 0:16:59.880 --> 0:17:02.440 to vote. You're boring into being able to sit in 0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:04.240 the front of the boat. Hold on, but hold on, 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:07.159 let me, let me, let me back up. You can 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:09.159 eat at the restaurants and walk through the front. They 0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:11.400 was already granted that right, but we had to get 0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:16.400 that ship vote into a right. Right. Good point, good point, 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:19.840 and that's the way they've been able to maintain control 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:22.200 over the people. They just write it in the law. 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.760 It doesn't matter. So it doesn't matter what your what 0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:27.320 your position is, it doesn't matter how you feel with 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:29.640 the voters fear, it doesn't matter what your constituents feel. 0:17:29.880 --> 0:17:32.280 Just right in the law. And now they got to obey. 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:34.920 Now that you said that those laws can be overturned 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:40.280 because they're laws, their statutes overturned, the statue pignatures all. 0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:44.360 It takes somebody to sit down and say that, yeah, 0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:48.760 it's written up. And then you know, they ran our 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:51.200 house and put us in handcuffs and ship, you know, 0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:54.240 and put us back into captivity. Like it's all done 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:56.800 with the stroke of a pin. It's not a right, 0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:02.640 it's it's a judges's uh, granting this, If that makes sense. 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:05.680 He's granting us the right to sit here and converse, 0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:10.400 you know about ship that's going on. But imagine if 0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:14.360 the powers that be took the pen and they can't 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:18.000 do that no more. That's that then that's law again. Okay, 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:22.960 so away with the first one. We had to really really, 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:26.680 really really really be careful on how we choose our 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:31.000 elected officials. Really because they have the right to overturn 0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:33.719 ship because they're in that seat, you know what I mean? 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.840 Like that vote. As as unimportant as it may seem 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:43.439 to some, it's very important for our democracy, our freedom, 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:47.119 our our being able to do ship, being able to 0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:54.680 move around out here without being um victims. Podcast will 0:18:54.720 --> 0:19:03.600 be right back after the point. What do you think 0:19:03.640 --> 0:19:07.119 it is more important voting economic compowerment? If you have 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:08.840 to choose one, I know you can. I know that 0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:10.600 we need both. But if you have to pick one, 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:15.159 where you start, I think with the right people and 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:18.400 then I'm not evading the question, but I'm just saying, 0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:21.600 with the right people at the head of the table, 0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:29.960 then the money, the economics will come behind that. See, 0:19:29.960 --> 0:19:32.600 we can have all the money in the world, but 0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:35.320 we can't trage ship because we don't have a voice 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.400 in the house. Well that's why I said economic compowerment. 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:42.360 See that the impolicycy You can have money but not power. Yeah, 0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:47.080 empowerment comes from our organization. I'll take the organization because 0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:49.359 I know that money follows that. I know that money 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:54.120 money comes with power. So I honestly believe that if 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:56.680 we put the right people in place, then we won't 0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:58.960 have to worry about the money partner the moment. Economic 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.920 empowerment comes with the right people at the head of 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:06.280 the table. All right. That's the way I feel about it. 0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:09.200 And some may disagree, and some may agree, But I 0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:11.680 mean it's spooky, man, just to know, you know, just 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:14.359 knowing me, knowing that a mothering wake up in the 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:17.080 morning and be on some ship and and and and 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:20.160 write us out like like like the governor of Virginia 0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:23.480 is writing us out of history. He's writing Dr Keny 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:27.200 out of history, you know. And it's not very many 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:33.600 black people in US history books in the first place. 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:44.080 You know, never here um nothing about Frederick Douglas, Eli Whitney, 0:20:44.119 --> 0:20:54.160 Sojournal Truth, Dread Scott you know, uh uh path Singleton's. 0:20:54.920 --> 0:20:57.640 It's too many of the name Willie and and it's 0:20:57.680 --> 0:21:00.600 too many the name the contributions that that has been 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:06.040 made to this country. Yet we still go um unappreciated, 0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:12.400 we still go unrecognized, underserved. You know, it's terrible. Ship 0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:16.720 I'm looking at I'm looking at the Kanye uh West 0:21:17.119 --> 0:21:21.000 Kyrie Irving situation. Now, I'm looking at how many black 0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:25.199 people came out and said that, you know, Kyrie fucked up, 0:21:26.440 --> 0:21:30.720 Kanye fucked up. Yeah, that's some weak ship. But what happens. 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:40.560 What happens when um I get on the record and say, 0:21:41.720 --> 0:21:45.280 funk this nigg I'm gonna kill him now, I'm gonna 0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:49.640 cut his baby's heads off. Get a grammar, shit, ship 0:21:50.680 --> 0:21:54.840 your gramm. Hey man, it's it's it's um where the 0:21:54.960 --> 0:21:58.240 fucking world we live in, bro Ice, teach something that 0:21:58.320 --> 0:22:00.359 ship up the coldest man. And I said it once 0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:03.719 and I said a thousand times. Man, it's freedom of speech. 0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:08.520 Just watch what you say. A lot of people man 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:10.560 in this country, bro, they you know, we can. We 0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:14.159 can brag all all we want about our military, but 0:22:14.560 --> 0:22:18.719 our military, and I might it ain't. We really are 0:22:18.800 --> 0:22:21.200 not in control of that. It's them over there. They're 0:22:21.240 --> 0:22:24.480 controlling that. I'm talking. I'm talking about those elite members. 0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:27.440 They controlled, They control the military. So we can brag 0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:30.200 all we want on the military, but that's all we 0:22:30.280 --> 0:22:34.240 really got. Those people in some of these other countries, 0:22:34.640 --> 0:22:39.400 they got way more nuts than Americans. Americans are full 0:22:39.480 --> 0:22:42.919 of fucking cowards, bro, And and we high it's almost 0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:44.840 like half It's almost like having a big brother. You 0:22:44.920 --> 0:22:48.200 can't fight, but your big brother kick ass. And so 0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:50.320 you hide behind your big brother talking all that ship 0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:53.840 because you know, ain'tybody gonna got big brother all that 0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:57.000 ship behind your big brother. And that's how Americans do. 0:22:57.359 --> 0:22:59.639 They hid behind big brother. Big brother is the elite 0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.400 big brother of the Americans. Well, even know what I'm 0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:09.440 talking about, a viral moment, that's okay, I'm not worried 0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:12.040 about that. But what I am worried about is it's 0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:15.399 know what I know when I am what I am 0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:19.120 worried about it it's people, uh misinterpreted what I'm trying 0:23:19.160 --> 0:23:24.800 to say. Yeah, that's the easing Americans. I don't even 0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:28.080 say most Americans. I al would say most Americans are 0:23:28.119 --> 0:23:31.840 some fucking cowards because they refused to challenge this government. 0:23:31.880 --> 0:23:34.680 They refused to actually go up against the government and 0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:38.320 and and and really get these fucking people that are 0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:43.359 in office that have these lifetime tenures. They got to go. Bro. 0:23:44.320 --> 0:23:46.399 These people are sitting in office, man like people like 0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:48.600 CLARENS Thomas and all these people, and they just sit 0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:51.640 there for for the fifty years. Man, just stroking that pin. 0:23:51.720 --> 0:23:53.440 Man just doing whatever they want to do, getting that 0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:56.680 free money, getting that free healthcare, man, and just and 0:23:56.840 --> 0:24:00.920 just ain't doing nothing to help the people. They're not 0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.760 doing nothing to bring us together. They're not doing anything 0:24:04.359 --> 0:24:07.439 to help the people. America is more divided today than 0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:11.000 perhaps has ever met. I'm in with that, and and 0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:13.640 and the trip part about it is that with all 0:24:13.680 --> 0:24:17.800 of this technology that we have, with all of the 0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:22.560 resources that we have, you know, people feel less safe 0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:24.880 today than they've ever felt. And but they but these 0:24:24.960 --> 0:24:29.440 politicians continue to run on being tough on crime, and 0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.760 and every year it seems that crime gets worse. It 0:24:32.800 --> 0:24:35.919 seems like every year people continue to be even more afraid, 0:24:36.000 --> 0:24:39.360 but they continue to vote for these politicians who said, 0:24:39.400 --> 0:24:42.000 I'm gonna be tough, I'm gonna be tough on I'm 0:24:42.040 --> 0:24:44.720 gonna be tough on crime. But why why is it 0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:47.399 if they're so tough on crime that that has to 0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:50.239 be the number one priority every single time? And why 0:24:50.359 --> 0:24:52.720 is it that? Why is it number one for you? 0:24:52.880 --> 0:24:57.880 Every single Every year? Every year you can you can't 0:24:57.880 --> 0:25:02.040 even say okay, last year, can't even say, uh, well, 0:25:02.240 --> 0:25:07.560 I felt I felt more. Uh what we can't say 0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:11.639 last year I felt more fearful, and I do this year. No, 0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:15.480 every year you feel more, even even more fearful, and 0:25:15.840 --> 0:25:19.040 that's why I don't make no damn sense when it's stupid. 0:25:19.760 --> 0:25:28.120 Dodo Bird named Teddy Cruz tells victims of gun violence 0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:34.080 and advocates that the solution to gun control is more 0:25:34.200 --> 0:25:38.240 police officers in the schools. The solution to gun control, 0:25:38.359 --> 0:25:40.399 I meant, the solution to mass murders in the school 0:25:41.040 --> 0:25:46.320 is more law enforcement officers. That were three and seventy 0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:49.840 six law enforcement officers in u vality that watched nineteen 0:25:49.920 --> 0:25:54.000 kids gets slaughtered. That's fucked up. They were there, but 0:25:54.359 --> 0:26:00.359 they were They were watched that nineteen kids, nineteen babies 0:26:00.720 --> 0:26:05.639 and two adults got slaughtered. And those sorry, lazy, no 0:26:05.920 --> 0:26:09.399 good for nothing Mama should be bad. Daddy should have 0:26:09.440 --> 0:26:12.720 pulled out motherfucker's did nothing, Bro, They did nothing. So 0:26:12.800 --> 0:26:16.159
