Speaker 1: Dudes be like whatever, fool, I don't give a fuck.
Speaker 1: Yeah they do. Who politics, y'all? How it's so hool
Speaker 1: right now, little politics y'all. So look, hey, prop here,
Speaker 1: quick correction. I kept saying Manu chin throughout this episode,
Speaker 1: but I meant matching to this confusing. I'm talking about
Speaker 1: matching though, Uh so, forgive me, but manuchan he wild too. Anyway,
Speaker 1: let's bay back in here we go, Ladies and gentlemen
Speaker 1: on the line in the building. Uh l, a monument.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if I can overstate
Speaker 1: the important to this brother, to the culture, to the coffee,
Speaker 1: and just to the state of homy ship. Uh we
Speaker 1: got Merge three sixteen. Please say what's up, Mercy? I
Speaker 1: don't know, man, like I feel like you. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You joining the club? You know what
Speaker 1: I mean? I had to retire, man, my assd reflux?
Speaker 1: Shut up? No, how did you retire? Had to retire
Speaker 1: to barely drink my home beer? Now? Damn? How are
Speaker 1: you gonna have your own beer and can't drink it?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, stuff is rough, man, it's growing up. You
Speaker 1: have chocolate oat milk right now, Damn. Growing up is
Speaker 1: hard to do. Mm hmm. All right, So we haven't
Speaker 1: had a guest in a while, which is super dope.
Speaker 1: I'm glad to have Mercy being one of the inaugural
Speaker 1: uh redl much guests. His reputation supersedes him. For y'all
Speaker 1: who maybe don't know, go ahead and do your google's
Speaker 1: uh trust me, you do know? Uh anyway, Uh, I'd
Speaker 1: like to do this in the way that, like, you know,
Speaker 1: my homies come in blind Me and Merth share a
Speaker 1: lot of like similar experiences of being you know, in
Speaker 1: the culture, being hybrids, right is that? Is that a
Speaker 1: good way to explain it? Like, yeah, super in love
Speaker 1: with hip hop but from the city, you know, and
Speaker 1: having to learn how to navigate both, which is why
Speaker 1: I think, Um, he's so qualified to discuss what we're
Speaker 1: about to discuss, and he doesn't know what it is.
Speaker 1: You know, do you know what we're going to talk about?
Speaker 1: You can? We we cuss a lot on this, uh yeah,
Speaker 1: which is even a throwback as to how long I've
Speaker 1: known this nick. Anyway, So when you hear the phrase
Speaker 1: out of some body's mouth, I have a I have
Speaker 1: a theory, and um, I'm a flesh this out with
Speaker 1: you and we can discuss what it is. Then we'll
Speaker 1: go into like the political comparisons, and I'm pretty sure
Speaker 1: you'll see it as we start going. When someone says
Speaker 1: I don't give a fuck, right, Yeah, I am of
Speaker 1: the belief that there are multiple definitions of what that
Speaker 1: means and what they're trying to say, depending on the context.
Speaker 1: Just use your antennas. What are Give me a couple
Speaker 1: of definitions of what it means. When somebody say I
Speaker 1: don't give funk, it's either you've presented this person with
Speaker 1: the option to make like sue for peace. Okay, they're
Speaker 1: they're still on the war path regardless of what you say. Yes, um,
Speaker 1: you just did something and you really have no regard
Speaker 1: for the results or the alcohol you feel, you feel
Speaker 1: the consequences are beneath you, and you're not gonna feel
Speaker 1: Look then quences of this action correct, correct I am?
Speaker 1: Or generally it could just be a you're you're unbothered,
Speaker 1: you don't care, I really could care, I could care less. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think those are the three ways I would take
Speaker 1: that state. Yes, I am. I am totally on board
Speaker 1: with all three of those. I also think that there
Speaker 1: might be more. Yeah, yeah, and you can get and
Speaker 1: let's let's discuss some of these more ones. I love
Speaker 1: the first one that you talked about to where you
Speaker 1: just like, there is no regard for my safety or
Speaker 1: the safety of the people around me. Right, that's the extreme.
Speaker 1: I'll give that nigger watch out for it because there's
Speaker 1: no because consequences are of no consequence. Consequences are of
Speaker 1: no consequence. Is that, yes, we and we know nigs
Speaker 1: like this, right, yes? Yes. Do you feel like a
Speaker 1: rational person can be driven to that? Yes, absol lutely,
Speaker 1: I absolutely agree with this. I also think there's a
Speaker 1: version of I don't give a funk, which is actually
Speaker 1: more motivated by the fact that you actually do. It's
Speaker 1: just a matter of figuring out what you give a
Speaker 1: funk about, because I think oftentimes like say, for example,
Speaker 1: you know you you, this is your ex, and you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and you like, I'll get funk
Speaker 1: what y'all do, I'll get nikki you hurt? You heard? Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's that way, yea, there's down for sure. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess there's also the I don't give a funk
Speaker 1: like you with whatever, like that's how me. Like people
Speaker 1: are like, oh, you dated porn stars, she sucked this
Speaker 1: in me. I don't give a fuck, Like doesn't matter. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is so. I'm concerned about other things, right, there
Speaker 1: are other things that concerned me. This thing that you're
Speaker 1: bringing up is not one of them. Yeah, I want
Speaker 1: my dick to be one of those dicks I don't
Speaker 1: have been before me. That is the past. The past
Speaker 1: is not real. Neither is the future not real. All
Speaker 1: that's real is the present. You know. I learned that
Speaker 1: in the house party one. You know what I'm saying
Speaker 1: when it comes to me and my dick action I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about currently currently right now listen that you know what,
Speaker 1: that's funny. That's funny because I was thinking about something
Speaker 1: else actually for another episode that this actually fits in
Speaker 1: in the sense that, like, I'm almost positive that just
Speaker 1: human genitals just suck at reason, Like reason is not
Speaker 1: a part of its strength, and it's up to like
Speaker 1: our the accounting department in our bodies to try to
Speaker 1: at least way the pros and cons for our genitals.
Speaker 1: Who just yeah, there, it's like a bucking bronco. That's
Speaker 1: like never like that horse on the ranch that can't
Speaker 1: be broken. Yes, and for men that that horse doesn't
Speaker 1: get broken. Maybe into your sixties, you your whole, A
Speaker 1: lot of your being is like you know, like I've
Speaker 1: tried to like Mentor and Foster fourteen year old boys
Speaker 1: like I don't blame me because half of your your
Speaker 1: every your hormones or everything is in your nuts right now,
Speaker 1: everything you are splitting like there's only so much blood
Speaker 1: flow and you're splitting it between your brain and then
Speaker 1: a lot of your brain I'm forcing to deal with
Speaker 1: with with school, Yes, something's gonna suffer, either chores around
Speaker 1: the house, your school, your ability to obey obey commands
Speaker 1: from your parents. Something's gonna suffer. So I'll give I
Speaker 1: give you a lot of leeway. Bro, No one gave
Speaker 1: me that leeway. I understand, But this is what you
Speaker 1: gotta do. You can't do this, yes, like don't know.
Speaker 1: Don't push your little brother over, walk the dog, do
Speaker 1: your homework there, don't go to jail. Right, the fence
Speaker 1: is wide, but there is a fence, there is a fense.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a very like you were you
Speaker 1: were eight. I think that's the thing is like you
Speaker 1: I construct, I put the fence around my kids young
Speaker 1: and then I start to expand it as they get older.
Speaker 1: That's me, that's how I should be. Yeah, because then
Speaker 1: so by the time you're fifteen, bro, I'm almost out
Speaker 1: of your way because you want to get out of
Speaker 1: here anyway. This fence is never gonna be wide enough
Speaker 1: for you're ready to start your own. The hope is
Speaker 1: the hope is I've invested enough into the accounting department, right,
Speaker 1: you can make a better decision for yourself. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: you don't give a fuck, because you don't get it.
Speaker 1: Because at the end of the day, you don't give
Speaker 1: a year old that is they're they're they're they're coming
Speaker 1: back to that. Yeah. And and but that's good. That's
Speaker 1: good because because you don't give a fuck. But it's
Speaker 1: my job as your parents to figure out what you
Speaker 1: actually do. Give a yes, yes, And if I understand that,
Speaker 1: then I understand how you move. I think it's the
Speaker 1: same in let's say, in the streets where it's just
Speaker 1: like nigger run up on you, like I don't give
Speaker 1: a funk, Like will you care about something? Right? But
Speaker 1: see that's I think too. Like I was in St.
Speaker 1: Barth's on a random trip with my family, okay, And
Speaker 1: I'm walking with my son to the fit and I'm
Speaker 1: looking at my outfit and people don't know what to
Speaker 1: make of me, you know, the local the local black
Speaker 1: people like how does he like? Is he on vacation?
Speaker 1: He doesn't work in any of the hotels, and the
Speaker 1: white French people are all uptight and mad and they
Speaker 1: don't know why I'm not there to serve them. And
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't give a funk, and I
Speaker 1: was like to thing about me. You can look at
Speaker 1: my hair the way I addressed I was like a
Speaker 1: lot of niggas in the rap game will say they
Speaker 1: don't give a funk. I'm the one that really doesn't
Speaker 1: really don't. Yes, I'm the one you made fun of
Speaker 1: because I came to school how I came to school.
Speaker 1: I don't only thing to give a funk about his
Speaker 1: hip hop at that point. Yeah, you guys get about girls,
Speaker 1: even rappers. Now you give a funk about the Grammys.
Speaker 1: Rappers give a funk about other rappers, Like you know,
Speaker 1: Kidrick just dropping amazing verse and he's like smashed at
Speaker 1: Hard Drive. Blable was like, because you give a funk
Speaker 1: what other niggas are dropping. You get like I put
Speaker 1: my arm out in the middle of a pandemic. I don't.
Speaker 1: I really don't give a fuck. You guys are scared
Speaker 1: of jail. You're scared of your enemies. You know, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. We're getting there. That's it. You're
Speaker 1: scared of something, right, you're saying this, and I understand
Speaker 1: what you're saying. But you're scared of something. You're trying
Speaker 1: to impress somebody. Yeah, it's somebody or somebody or somebody
Speaker 1: killed your homies. So you got joined the gang so
Speaker 1: that you can get revised. Because you give a funk,
Speaker 1: because you give I never, I really there's a lot.
Speaker 1: It takes me a long time to give it. On
Speaker 1: skill of giving a funk. There's a lot of a
Speaker 1: lot of people who give more funks to me that
Speaker 1: say they don't give a funk at all. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: and and and even in you saying that, you made
Speaker 1: it very clear they are what you care about. I
Speaker 1: care about a hip hop and now I got a family.
Speaker 1: I care about my family. You understand what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So if you if I know that, then I'm like,
Speaker 1: I understand all of them. I understand your moves. I
Speaker 1: understand exactly what you're doing because I know what you
Speaker 1: care about, right, So I feel like, yeah, it's the
Speaker 1: same thing with like you was the one that brought
Speaker 1: up was that was that schoolboy that did the quote
Speaker 1: about being sensitive? I think I think it was him.
Speaker 1: I may have credited because it's the same like on
Speaker 1: the New Kindrick verse, which is great, Yes, I love it.
Speaker 1: Um or he says, I got a gun on me.
Speaker 1: I'm scary, Like I'm scary, I got a gun in here, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's how you like. The scary niggas. The sensitive niggas
Speaker 1: is the ones you gotta watch out for. Yes, oh oh,
Speaker 1: you're walking right into it. The sensitive ones, it's like
Speaker 1: because they triggered easy, right, it's something else going on
Speaker 1: and you don't know how to process that. You hold
Speaker 1: it on the something, and that makes you dangerous, right
Speaker 1: because you hold it on it something. Right. I honestly
Speaker 1: think there are a handful of situations in our politics
Speaker 1: and in our and with our politicians that from the
Speaker 1: outside it looks like they saying they don't give funk.
Speaker 1: That's what I do, that's what I want. But I
Speaker 1: think if me and you would use our antennas and
Speaker 1: the rest of us would use our antennas to really
Speaker 1: understand what somebody means when they say that. It's like,
Speaker 1: I think we can actually follow they move and really
Speaker 1: understand what they're doing. That. Does that make sense? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah for sure. If you really understand that most most
Speaker 1: niggas that say they don't give a funk actually give
Speaker 1: a fuck, then then you could follow what looks like
Speaker 1: not having funds to give because you just gave it
Speaker 1: to something like yeah, you're giving it like like the
Speaker 1: like what I love about the Kindrick versus, like like
Speaker 1: I don't give a funk who's outside. I'm killing everybody,
Speaker 1: but you care who because you want the top people
Speaker 1: outside when you drop your album because you want to
Speaker 1: kill them because you give a funk about. But the verse,
Speaker 1: the whole feeling of the verse to me is like
Speaker 1: I don't give a funk. But it is like that's
Speaker 1: the balance because I understand I have my antendance that
Speaker 1: I know what he does give a funk about, because
Speaker 1: that verse was fucking relentless, like I don't give a
Speaker 1: fun to hit. I didn't put a hook on this,
Speaker 1: I didn't put Yeah, I just came from Nigga's next.
Speaker 1: So I don't give a funk about anything but being
Speaker 1: the greatest about that that. Yes, yes, No one ever
Speaker 1: finishes the sentence when they say I don't give a funk.
Speaker 1: What you mean is I don't give a funk about
Speaker 1: there's an ellipses, there's dot dot dot. I don't give
Speaker 1: a funk dot dot dot yes, perfect, all right, there
Speaker 1: we are. So the point is I don't give a
Speaker 1: funk dot dot dot. So you got to not give
Speaker 1: a funk about something, right, So when you ask yourself senator,
Speaker 1: a governor, b whatever the case may be, And you
Speaker 1: might wonder what would possess a senator to say I
Speaker 1: don't give a funk about what you're or not senator
Speaker 1: governor to say I don't give a funk about what
Speaker 1: your school district is saying in I'm not making nobody
Speaker 1: wearing no masks, and if you make them do it,
Speaker 1: I'm shutting y'all down. Where it's like like you're okay,
Speaker 1: So you're acting like this pandemic don't exist and you
Speaker 1: just don't get so it looks like, damn, I don't
Speaker 1: give a fuck. It looks like it's think it don't
Speaker 1: give a funk because you're just like, look, this is
Speaker 1: what we're doing. This, this my squad, this my voter block,
Speaker 1: this is what I'm doing, even though you're putting your
Speaker 1: voter block in danger. Right. But it seems like, and
Speaker 1: especially it seems as though in this like in this
Speaker 1: Trump era, that the it seems as though the most
Speaker 1: not give a fuck you are as a as a conservative,
Speaker 1: the most like, I don't get funk. This is what
Speaker 1: we're doing. You're not gonna this is terrany. This is
Speaker 1: this the most I don't give it. I ain't taking
Speaker 1: nobody's vaccine. I ain't doing this. I don't give it.
Speaker 1: Seems like the most I don't give a funk you
Speaker 1: are the louder. Their fan base kind of cheers for him. Right.
Speaker 1: Is that is that seem is that something you're saying? Yeah? So,
Speaker 1: so the question will be, well, then what if if
Speaker 1: my assertion is if you say you don't give a funk,
Speaker 1: it's about something, but there are other things you do
Speaker 1: give a funk about. Let's let's get into it. Yea.
Speaker 1: So Greg Abbott in Texas, right, he at one point
Speaker 1: mandated masks because he was like, I ain't taking a
Speaker 1: vaccine on man mandate masks, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: masks got like not good for his for his ace.
Speaker 1: Now he was like, I'm not mandating masks. I'll give
Speaker 1: funk what y'all say. I'm not making nobody wear a mask.
Speaker 1: The school districts are like, listen, we're making these kids
Speaker 1: wear masks. I don't care what you say. We're making
Speaker 1: them wear masks, nigga, because we don't want to die.
Speaker 1: So the question you have to ask yourself is what
Speaker 1: would Greg Abbott actually give a funk about? Then? What
Speaker 1: gives about votes? That's why give the funk about votes?
Speaker 1: If there's no votes in it? Do you? And especially
Speaker 1: this because he all of our government officials are vaccinated,
Speaker 1: every last one up right, So if the nigga gives
Speaker 1: funk about votes, then what must be his situation? This
Speaker 1: is Texas, Like, how in the world would there ever
Speaker 1: be an issue with him worrying about votes? If you're
Speaker 1: a Republican in Texas, nigga, you good. The only way
Speaker 1: for this to be a problem is it's got to
Speaker 1: be a bigger gangster somebody, somebody out here that's challenging
Speaker 1: you who's this, Who's this? Who's this competition? I'm glad
Speaker 1: you asked. He about to be primaried. He's gonna be
Speaker 1: primaried by a man ex Republican UH Texas UM chairman
Speaker 1: Alan West. He been a prime at him. Now. Alan
Speaker 1: West is interesting because this fool uh back in two
Speaker 1: thousand ten was like a tea party hardliner. If there's
Speaker 1: anybody mo right wing, then the Republicans, it's the tea
Speaker 1: party because they're already there in the bay with the tea.
Speaker 1: They hadn't already spilled it right, this thing, this, this nigga,
Speaker 1: Allen West had already faced UH trial for UM torture.
Speaker 1: He tortured in Iraqi police officer by beating him and
Speaker 1: carrying a mocks exit execution of the poor dude while
Speaker 1: dragging him outside, putting a gun behind his head and
Speaker 1: shooting at the round next to him. This nigga wilds officer.
Speaker 1: You would think, right, that part part much rampart much
Speaker 1: this fool he also UH is being flanked by the
Speaker 1: right by Senator Don Huffins. And nigga's name is Don Huffins.
Speaker 1: You believe that the Don of Huffing, right, Uh, he's
Speaker 1: been tacking in for not cracking down on schools with
Speaker 1: these mass mandates. So the so it's almost like when
Speaker 1: you see somebody wild out on the block, it's probably
Speaker 1: because it's somebody wild earthen them right. So Alan West
Speaker 1: is wilder than Abbott. So if we don't and if
Speaker 1: we don't like Abbott, there's no way you're gonna get
Speaker 1: a Democratic candidate to beat Allen West or Abbott. I mean,
Speaker 1: you tell me, unless you find somebody more wild the
Speaker 1: other direction. And there's out enough people that fell off
Speaker 1: the Republican vote that we can't get a middle to
Speaker 1: write um version to jump over to the Democratic side
Speaker 1: or run as an independent. I wish we could. Is
Speaker 1: there a middle to right person that can come in
Speaker 1: and say, yo, hey, you know are okay, but Democrats
Speaker 1: still suck right one will Biden. But let's wear masks
Speaker 1: and get vaccinated or whatever. Or there's no vaccination, we're
Speaker 1: just requiring masks. You know, if you don't want to
Speaker 1: get vaccinated, that's fine. If you don't want to provide
Speaker 1: a test, fine, then wear a mask. You have three options.
Speaker 1: Because I was told in my Tony Robbins class to
Speaker 1: anything that with two options is an ultimatum. It's not
Speaker 1: options you have don't have a choice to you have three.
Speaker 1: So here you go. You can provide a negative test,
Speaker 1: you can get vaccinated, or you can wear a mask.
Speaker 1: Those are the three options people, So we don't die.
Speaker 1: That's it to choose. Choose one of three? You know what?
Speaker 1: That's almost good parents and invite it's too Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I try to implement it in everything. It makes perfect
Speaker 1: sen yeah, because I'll be like, here's the thing. You
Speaker 1: either finish these chores or you don't go anywhere. That's
Speaker 1: definitely an ultimatum. I never thought about that. What works
Speaker 1: better in our house is, hey, I know you want
Speaker 1: to do this. You can either do them now or
Speaker 1: before you go to bed. Right. So now it's like, okay,
Speaker 1: well I got some options here. I know I gotta
Speaker 1: do it, but yeah, and then I think that, like,
Speaker 1: you know, and you have a third option of you
Speaker 1: cannot do it at all and be in real trouble.
Speaker 1: But you can not do it at all, you can
Speaker 1: tell me funk off and then you know what's what's
Speaker 1: good with that? Or you can do it later, or
Speaker 1: you can do it right now. I acknowledging the extreme.
Speaker 1: I understand that you don't have technically have to do
Speaker 1: any of this, and if you and I don't have to,
Speaker 1: I can't make you do it. But I can do this,
Speaker 1: so you cannot do this at all, and then you
Speaker 1: can get nothing that you want or be prepared for
Speaker 1: the consequences. Yeah, yeah, you know. Yeah, I've tried. I've
Speaker 1: tried to like always acknowledge that you could do nothing,
Speaker 1: and then also by acknowledging that you can, you get
Speaker 1: to I get to make you aware of the consequences
Speaker 1: of doing nothing. There it is, but then there's now
Speaker 1: and then there's later. But you also have a you
Speaker 1: have a teenager, like I don't give it three I
Speaker 1: don't give three options to I don't believe I'm not
Speaker 1: a Yeah, we we have a diet to cut him out.
Speaker 1: I don't believe in discussing things with terrorists. I believe
Speaker 1: toddlers are terrorists. Like, but you don't have the mental
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna talk to someone who doesn't have the
Speaker 1: mental facilities to understand. I have an eight year old.
Speaker 1: Now we can have conversation. I can give you three options.
Speaker 1: I'm not giving options to someone who doesn't speak English,
Speaker 1: and but I'm not saying they speak Portuguese or sparsh
Speaker 1: they just don't comprehend. You don't understand the words coming.
Speaker 1: I would be I would be an idiot to reason
Speaker 1: with you because you have no reasoning. You know. Somebody
Speaker 1: used to say that. I remember that was one of
Speaker 1: the good pieces of advice when when when our youngest
Speaker 1: was born, was like, have you ever tried to reason
Speaker 1: with somebody drunk? And it's like, okay, that's talking to
Speaker 1: a toddler, Like there's you can't there's nothing you can
Speaker 1: I don't know why you're trying to talk to them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all that, like what are you feeling? And that's okay. No,
Speaker 1: it's not okay. You just threw a toy and hit
Speaker 1: your brother and it's gonna be okay. No if I
Speaker 1: if you know, you're going on time out and it's
Speaker 1: not okay that you do that, and that's why you're
Speaker 1: on time out. Listen, Let's let's sit down and say
Speaker 1: I understand you frustrated. I understand all this, but listen,
Speaker 1: you will not be able to handle toys anymore. That's
Speaker 1: that's not good. It's not good, bro, You're hurting yourself
Speaker 1: and others, like you're danger to yourself and others. And
Speaker 1: that's like terrorists the terrorists, is that the terrorists doesn't
Speaker 1: give a fuck. That's the ultimate level. And kids, toddlers
Speaker 1: don't give a fun. Terrorists don't give a fund. But
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of a lot of politicians
Speaker 1: will position themselves as toddlers or terrorists, right, but you
Speaker 1: do give a funk because you want to keep that off,
Speaker 1: you want to keep that check. I wish public servants
Speaker 1: went back to being servants, which means you don't get paid.
Speaker 1: At the time when government officials didn't get paid, and
Speaker 1: my stepfather made me aware of that. So if you served,
Speaker 1: you were literally serving literally and that's and there was
Speaker 1: no lobbyists, there was no money, there was just your served.
Speaker 1: That's a job you wanted. It's a public service, damn.
Speaker 1: And we made it a paid thing thinking we would
Speaker 1: get better politicians, but we got more corrupt politicians. So
Speaker 1: we could take a step back and to get into
Speaker 1: public service. But now with social media, public service will
Speaker 1: still provide benefits, but there's no reason that we have
Speaker 1: to pay them because it would take hustle. I would
Speaker 1: admire public servant that you know, Trump was a hustler.
Speaker 1: There's a part of me that admires that hustle. I
Speaker 1: can't kill that. This is a free it's a free market,
Speaker 1: is you know, capitalism whatever. But if you find but
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna these politicians want to keep their accounts
Speaker 1: where they fly for free. No, you fly yourself to
Speaker 1: Washington and then that's what they're when this one like
Speaker 1: once the swamp develops and like they're not gonna pass
Speaker 1: this bill by this date because they're going on vacation.
Speaker 1: My stepfather was like, well, back in the day, they
Speaker 1: would get stuff done because they had a business to
Speaker 1: get back to. If these politicians, yeah, if you're if
Speaker 1: you have a you know, a dry cleaning business, or
Speaker 1: you have a shoe store or whatever, and you're in
Speaker 1: Washington for the weekend to vote on some stuff or
Speaker 1: for the week to vote and stuff, you're gonna get
Speaker 1: everything you have done because you want to get back
Speaker 1: to work. If Trump says you guys are gonna stay
Speaker 1: here until you figure it out, you're not saying, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm in for a star hotel. You're paying for all that.
Speaker 1: That's that's that's love. You start messing. You start sucking
Speaker 1: up the money. Yeah, you start doing what you gotta do.
Speaker 1: Then you get in that room. It's kind of like
Speaker 1: jury duty. We don't get paid for that. Yeah. So
Speaker 1: there's use solutions and when there's something big and you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, you get you get a small
Speaker 1: amount of money. I think there should be a small one.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't like you should be paid like a juror
Speaker 1: that was set a precedent. Cool. You guys are here
Speaker 1: to decide this on the lass. I bet if you
Speaker 1: know you're missing time with your families it's costing your money,
Speaker 1: you guys will come up with some creative solutions. You'll
Speaker 1: come across the aisle more often. There'll be more coming
Speaker 1: across the aisle. Money invove if there's no money involved.
Speaker 1: There was no money, if their money was But think
Speaker 1: about it like this, which is kind of gets me
Speaker 1: to this next person I wanted to talk about, Joe Manuchin.
Speaker 1: I don't know Joe, So Joe I love. I'm glad
Speaker 1: you asked this. Joe is that person in the middle
Speaker 1: that you was discussing. Now, he's from uh West Virginia.
Speaker 1: He's a Democrat, right, But if you're a Democrat in
Speaker 1: West Virginia. You can't really be that democratic, right, So
Speaker 1: he's been in a lot of ways bossed up because
Speaker 1: the um the way that like we've been trying to
Speaker 1: get these like these like voter rights passed, you know,
Speaker 1: the John Lewis law. I don't know if you saw that.
Speaker 1: There was this past weekend, there was a march in
Speaker 1: on Washington to get our protections for voter rights because
Speaker 1: you know, in a lot of Republican states they're trying
Speaker 1: to do a lot of voter suppression laws. YadA, YadA. Right,
Speaker 1: everybody on board in the Democratic Party except for this fool.
Speaker 1: And since there's such a narrow um majority, if he
Speaker 1: don't get on board, this ship don't pass, right, But
Speaker 1: what he so, So this one of the biggest rally
Speaker 1: cries among them. I did an episode about a filibuster,
Speaker 1: which is you know what the filibuster is besides like
Speaker 1: shooting the nigger, Yeah, a filibuster basically just means that
Speaker 1: like you can't It's just it's essentially you just gotta
Speaker 1: keep talking because if I keep talking, then y'all can't
Speaker 1: stop and do anything. So, so you can't we can't
Speaker 1: vote on this if the floor is still open for debate.
Speaker 1: And the way that you do that is it's called filibustering, right,
Speaker 1: and almost every like uh famous filibuster has almost always
Speaker 1: been around black people rights, where they've been trying to
Speaker 1: stop black people's rights. It's always been like this for
Speaker 1: some reason. Anyway, everybody trying to end this filibusters so
Speaker 1: we could vote except for him, right, everybody want to
Speaker 1: get this thing past except for him. So in a
Speaker 1: lot of ways, this fool has by not throwing his
Speaker 1: vote in the thing, been like, uh, stop this whole
Speaker 1: movement that the entire Democrat is like. It's almost like
Speaker 1: he willed more power than actually Joe. They're actually Biden
Speaker 1: because he's stopping the ship from happening by not casting
Speaker 1: this vote. Now, my theory is because Nigga lives in
Speaker 1: West Virginia, right, at some point you gotta go home, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: and if you gotta go home, then out then yo,
Speaker 1: the middle ground thing that we're kind of hoping for,
Speaker 1: like you said in in in in Texas, it's like, well, Nigga,
Speaker 1: I'll go to Washington. I'm gonna go to Washington. I'll
Speaker 1: try to do this middle ground ship but I gotta
Speaker 1: go home. And when I go home, and as soon
Speaker 1: as he's like, now, we're not in the era of
Speaker 1: where you can't he could do it on the low. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because there's a Republican candidate waiting in West Virginia for
Speaker 1: him to for him to go with this law so
Speaker 1: that he could say he was with the niggers and
Speaker 1: he would did this when he went to Washington. And
Speaker 1: then he loses West Virginia. It may look like he
Speaker 1: don't give a fuck, it may look like it, but
Speaker 1: oh he gives and that's and that's the thing, is
Speaker 1: like he is. But a loss of that Democratic seat
Speaker 1: also hurts us. It hurts us period. So we want
Speaker 1: to keep Joe Manusian philibustering. But we need his vote.
Speaker 1: So we do we need do we want that? Do
Speaker 1: we want him to give us his vote at the
Speaker 1: cost of losing the seat? Is he a senator or
Speaker 1: senator House? So yeah, oh god, do we want to
Speaker 1: lose a Senate seat over this issue? You tell me?
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, that's the thing that we have to see.
Speaker 1: But it's like, where are we going to pick up
Speaker 1: with with keeping these laws out of place? Where are
Speaker 1: we gonna pick up. We may not need his seat
Speaker 1: next year, our next you know, in the next two.
Speaker 1: So that's an interesting thing. It's like you have to
Speaker 1: ask yourself as Okay, so uh of the Democrats votes
Speaker 1: was was black people, like we carried them into office,
Speaker 1: you know. And then so then you have to step
Speaker 1: back and say, well, have they put on for us?
Speaker 1: We put on for you, you put on for us? Right?
Speaker 1: Have you put on for us? Because look, these primaries
Speaker 1: are coming the primary on this way, and that's and
Speaker 1: that's the question you gotta ask. So so yeah, like that,
Speaker 1: that's that's the real thing. It's like, well have you
Speaker 1: put on? And if you ain't put on, like what
Speaker 1: happens in the hood, you don't put on? Yeah, you
Speaker 1: get off, you get all right, it's just gets And
Speaker 1: that's but that's the thing is that it's just do
Speaker 1: we need West Virginia? Are we ever gone? Because and Joe?
Speaker 1: Does Joe need the black vote in West Virginia? Because
Speaker 1: that is that even a thing in West Virginia. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I haven't been booked for
Speaker 1: show in West Virginia ever in something years I performed
Speaker 1: on I think of most states I think I've gotten
Speaker 1: forty seven. I've done North Dakota, South Dakota. I've done
Speaker 1: in Arkansas. I've done Tennessee. I've done Maine, I've done Connecticut.
Speaker 1: It man, I believe I've done New Hampshire, Delaware. I
Speaker 1: know I haven't done Delaware, West Virginia. My booking agent
Speaker 1: asked them if I could do a show, and they said, no, no,
Speaker 1: we don't need we don't need im merse, we don't
Speaker 1: need it. I said, I'll do a door deal. I
Speaker 1: just need to knock this off of my list. There's
Speaker 1: no thank you. So I don't know how much Joe
Speaker 1: needs the black vote. I think that's the thing. I
Speaker 1: think that's the thing. I think the Democrats are really
Speaker 1: thankful that there's a Democrats. But if you ain't gonna
Speaker 1: do as well, give it back to the Republican, giving
Speaker 1: back to the Reds. I don't know. And so but
Speaker 1: if you but if you minute, and you're like, well,
Speaker 1: I don't care about none of this ship. I gotta
Speaker 1: go home and I need this job right. But the
Speaker 1: whole thing is like Joe, you're gonna lose his job
Speaker 1: either way, yeah whatever, no matter what he does. But
Speaker 1: you know, but I don't think no, because if he doesn't,
Speaker 1: he can keep this job. Actually, he's just gonna be
Speaker 1: a thorn in the side of the Democrats in Washington.
Speaker 1: But as long as he toes the line, he'll go
Speaker 1: home and get reelected. And why does Joe care so
Speaker 1: much about this job is because he's getting paid bags bacts.
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to make change. He has no political
Speaker 1: Joe has no political agenda. Joe has a financial agenda.
Speaker 1: Oh we're gonna get to that. Okay, good, good, good,
Speaker 1: Hold onto that right, hold onto that? So, yes, sir,
Speaker 1: I wish y'all see what this food did. So we
Speaker 1: still talk about the art and not giving the The
Speaker 1: last person I want to talk about is the Santos
Speaker 1: in uh in Florida. Oh I know, I know, I've
Speaker 1: her cousins name. Yeah, that's the governor. That's the governor.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that guy is popular. He real popular. I
Speaker 1: I think so. So the question for us is like,
Speaker 1: what does he give a funk about this? Nigg is like,
Speaker 1: y'all can't y'all can't y'all have to If you go
Speaker 1: into college, I think you should. You should have a
Speaker 1: box for your political views. I think you can't talk
Speaker 1: critical race theory. I'm gonna sue you if you do.
Speaker 1: Y'all can't make him wear a mask. I don't believe
Speaker 1: in odell to virus. I ain't taking this. What does
Speaker 1: this nake give a fun? What do you think he's
Speaker 1: trying to do? Man, He's trying to keep keep keep Florida, Florida.
Speaker 1: I think I think what like you know, like the
Speaker 1: Universal Studio Florida's has has Trump been it? He's trying
Speaker 1: to keep Disneyland, SeaWorld and on Universal Studios open. Here
Speaker 1: here why governors maybe very well recalled is because Orange County,
Speaker 1: Orange County got in a huff when he closed the
Speaker 1: beaches and Disneyland. That's a lot of fucking money for
Speaker 1: white people. These are international. It's a lot of banks,
Speaker 1: a lot of there's a hard rock cafe. There's a
Speaker 1: Bob Marley restaurant in Universal CityWalk, Florida, Margaritaville Emerald has
Speaker 1: a kitchen. Like that's just big business. I will never
Speaker 1: go there as long as I live because they gave
Speaker 1: money to Donald Trump. But I love that park. On tour,
Speaker 1: I made sure I went there, Like that's what he's
Speaker 1: trying to keep South Beach popping, keep keep a one
Speaker 1: a popping, those are huge things, and keep college football popping.
Speaker 1: Those are all huge things, huge things. I think there
Speaker 1: might be one more thing. What is it? I think
Speaker 1: he want to run? Oh, you think he wants to
Speaker 1: be president. I think you want to be president. I
Speaker 1: don't think there's anyone. So is he admired from by
Speaker 1: right wingers outside of Florida. I think I feel like
Speaker 1: I feel like that's the movies doing right now, because
Speaker 1: this ship is wild. Yeah, I just don't. I just
Speaker 1: don't see him getting the pubby. I think maybe he
Speaker 1: could think that, but I don't think it's reality because
Speaker 1: Ted Crews couldn't come out that motherfucker. You ain't coming
Speaker 1: off that motherfucker. I don't think Jeff Bush can Jeff
Speaker 1: Bushes in Florida. Yeah, but he Yeah, he'd have taken
Speaker 1: away too many else that man. Yeah, he can't. Nobody
Speaker 1: could come out of Florida is a joke, bro, Damn,
Speaker 1: you can't come out of Florida. Florida is a joke
Speaker 1: to other Republicans, like, you can't come out of Florida.
Speaker 1: Florida's about to be a blue state like Arizona. I
Speaker 1: probably helped turn turn Arizona blue. Let's go, but I
Speaker 1: but I got on. I sat first class on a
Speaker 1: flight reason when COVID first started, and I sat behind
Speaker 1: two white people. I made to bring my my Black
Speaker 1: Panther book to read in first class too. If you ever,
Speaker 1: as a black person, if you ever find the most
Speaker 1: revolutionary literature to read in first class, to scare the
Speaker 1: funk out. But these individuals, the ladies sitting next to
Speaker 1: me was shook. She didn't speak the whole time. But
Speaker 1: the two dudes sit in front of me like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: you hear about all these people moving for California. Keep
Speaker 1: bring your money, but keep the politics. And we're on
Speaker 1: our way to Dallas. Bring your money, but keep your politics.
Speaker 1: That's why you're moving here, Why you want to move here,
Speaker 1: because all politics are great. You love our tax breaks
Speaker 1: and everything, but don't bring your democratic liberal bullshit down here. Yeah. Man,
Speaker 1: And these guys were forty something. Yeah, and I was like, yo,
Speaker 1: what the fun. But but to my to my left
Speaker 1: wing friends, that's why that was my argument about a
Speaker 1: lot of that. Do not come and bring your legislation.
Speaker 1: That's set California for failure. There's a reason you're leaving
Speaker 1: in California. Make sure that when you vote, you're not
Speaker 1: just voting Democrats without understanding how it's affecting. Because the
Speaker 1: schools are good here for certain reasons, because the taxes
Speaker 1: are a certain way, don't come changing the tax laws.
Speaker 1: Don't come changing that. If you want a Democratic senator,
Speaker 1: think about what he's gonna vote for and what he's
Speaker 1: gonna because I feel them on certain parts. But there's
Speaker 1: a whole lot of don't bring your your love for
Speaker 1: black people and brown people down here to coding that statement,
Speaker 1: but there is things you do when you move to
Speaker 1: another state. Think about why you're leaving, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, and don't bring those things you make. You
Speaker 1: know what you make a good point, man, because I
Speaker 1: think what you what you're talking about in a lot
Speaker 1: of ways is quality of life and accountability, and I
Speaker 1: think oftentimes which is something that like I'm really hoping
Speaker 1: you know, people in this pod listen to whoo who
Speaker 1: are buying large left wing like let's not let me
Speaker 1: not be blind, but one thing that like one thing
Speaker 1: that I feel like why the left oftentimes counts on
Speaker 1: our votes but don't really put on for us is
Speaker 1: because of what you're saying, in the sense that we
Speaker 1: don't hold these foods accountable once you in the office.
Speaker 1: We need to be able to like you said, it's
Speaker 1: time for discipline, Like you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: we need to be able to discipline these foods when
Speaker 1: we say, hey, listen, this is what we ask for
Speaker 1: you to do. Niggie, you're not putting on you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And what's scary to me is like
Speaker 1: you said about this gather and Newsome joint, where it's like, well, fam,
Speaker 1: I don't know what the hell to tell you, bro.
Speaker 1: You like there's a lot of stuff I liked about you,
Speaker 1: but like I mean, you're kind of not putting on,
Speaker 1: Joe saying, and when when you don't put on this
Speaker 1: the ship that happens. Yeah, he didn't do enough, and
Speaker 1: he didn't he doesn't have That's why I noticed it,
Speaker 1: Like he doesn't have enough of people on the left
Speaker 1: supporting him. Yeah, you didn't do right by the right,
Speaker 1: and he didn't do right by the left. Yeah. And
Speaker 1: so my wife says that like he's done probably the
Speaker 1: most ever for the Latino community than any other governor.
Speaker 1: So for her, she's like, no, that's my guy. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But like you said, and that's
Speaker 1: that's interesting because like you said in about um minuting,
Speaker 1: is the same point you're doing here. It's like you
Speaker 1: stay in the center. Nobody like you, and it's like, right, well,
Speaker 1: when it comes for you, we can't really say that,
Speaker 1: oh that's my boy. I can't really, yeah, I can't really.
Speaker 1: I don't ever stood up against me, you know, but
Speaker 1: I gave you my vote. It's like it's like, I'm
Speaker 1: cool with you in the middle of I never gave
Speaker 1: you anything, Yeah, you know what I mean, But we
Speaker 1: gave you a vote and so on that, and then
Speaker 1: you still try to stay in the middle. It's a
Speaker 1: it's a it's a weird ye position. That's interesting man,
Speaker 1: because I think, yeah, it goes back to like securing
Speaker 1: the bag, because if the bag that they got was
Speaker 1: our approval, then they would really fight only for that.
Speaker 1: But if it's like I'm gonna be up regardless, I
Speaker 1: just need to make sure this money stays right, then Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I think that like we knew something. I think
Speaker 1: he was playing for president. I think that Florida and
Speaker 1: and and I mean dosantos as fools. I mean to
Speaker 1: give some real life experience. I know it's still secondhand
Speaker 1: for people. But my brother went to South Beach for
Speaker 1: his birthday two party from California. He was in a
Speaker 1: very fancy hotel. I forget to which hotel on South
Speaker 1: Beach staying there. He walked in the lobby with his
Speaker 1: mask on. And my brother is a black male who's
Speaker 1: six ft four, about two fifty pounds cons. Three fifty.
Speaker 1: He's a big dude. This little white man ran up
Speaker 1: to him in the lobby and said, sir, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to ask you to take off your mask. He
Speaker 1: was right, yeah, And they were enforcing no mask in.
Speaker 1: You couldn't even wear a mask. So the freedom thing lost,
Speaker 1: it lost its way. Yeah, you don't mean that. You
Speaker 1: don't mean he didn't have the freedom to wear a
Speaker 1: mask in the lobby. And then they were dry. He
Speaker 1: said they were paid billboards driving up and down the
Speaker 1: fucking the boardwalk saying or it's not the boardwalk, but
Speaker 1: up and down the strip saying don't take your mask off,
Speaker 1: state state marandate to take your mask off. Wow, and
Speaker 1: so like that, like he jumped the shark. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: jumped the shark and then you got and then you
Speaker 1: got but all going on and I don't even want
Speaker 1: to talk to you and your left friends about that, right,
Speaker 1: but you know my rules. If you don't have family
Speaker 1: in Cuban, you've never been to Cuba, and you're not Cuban,
Speaker 1: shut the funk up, Shut shut up talking about Shut
Speaker 1: the funk up. Like when when other black leaders coming here,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna name, no name's talking about they're gonna
Speaker 1: get the Bloods and Crypts together. I'd be like, shut
Speaker 1: the funk up. Don't tell me nothing about nothing, unless
Speaker 1: you're Tookie Williams t Rogers. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Michael Conception, don't shut up, shut your asks up. And
Speaker 1: that's all if you have if you're on the left
Speaker 1: and you have opinion about Cuba, or unless you're Russian,
Speaker 1: like you know what I mean, and you lived you
Speaker 1: lived in the USSR for a certain amount of years,
Speaker 1: your experience with communism is that thorough because I've been
Speaker 1: to Russia. That's like, I gotta at least arm Armuir leftist,
Speaker 1: Like I've talked to people, I know, I know what's
Speaker 1: going on over there a little bit more than you.
Speaker 1: And you know, I love Russia, but I didn't want
Speaker 1: to stay. Yea's not what I wanted to live. It's
Speaker 1: a night great place to visit. It was cool. I
Speaker 1: played in St. Petersburg. It was a great show, beautiful state.
Speaker 1: I felt like I was in l A when I played. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I was ready to go. Yeah, I was,
Speaker 1: you know, and I'm ready to go back. But for me,
Speaker 1: it was just there's no there's no black or brown
Speaker 1: people there. Yeah. That was hard. And then and they
Speaker 1: know you're not from there, and they do not a
Speaker 1: lot of the hardcore people do not care for me.
Speaker 1: This is one place. Then when I was in my
Speaker 1: Skelley tell me don't go out at night, and I
Speaker 1: looked at the size of Eastern European thugs and I'm yes,
Speaker 1: I've never obeyed that. When people told me a right,
Speaker 1: I was like, stay in my ass right here and
Speaker 1: stay right here. I'm going, yeah, buddy, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: on ahead and stay there. Like man, we had to
Speaker 1: American get caught under the bridge, and I was like,
Speaker 1: I can't hide from being an American. There's no that
Speaker 1: I can't. If it was if it was Living Legends
Speaker 1: and there was eight of us. I'm going where the
Speaker 1: funk I want to. I don't nobody want those problems.
Speaker 1: I don't get eight black dudes going. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: go where we want. Yeah, yeah, but me by myself. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've done. I've done the ninth Ward in New Orleans.
Speaker 1: I've done the third Ward in Texas. Just got out
Speaker 1: and walked. I shot dice in in Dallas, like I've
Speaker 1: done some things, gone to strip clubs and in the
Speaker 1: projects and in Madison, Wisconsin or whatever. In Milwaukee. Good Moscow,
Speaker 1: bro they had they had a whole lass T shirt
Speaker 1: next door to the Apple store. What's that little that
Speaker 1: little thing in Moscow? Red Square and Red Square, the mall,
Speaker 1: they have them all with the food court, just like
Speaker 1: for the for the communist people who think that there's
Speaker 1: no capitalism there. Right next to the Apple store was
Speaker 1: a store where they sold T shirts with Putin walking
Speaker 1: around walking away from the White House exploding, who exploding?
Speaker 1: They sold. They also had the same T shirt in
Speaker 1: the vending machine at the airport. Because don't play. They
Speaker 1: don't like us, they don't play, they don't they want
Speaker 1: nothing to do but then they also plaining to me
Speaker 1: in the Ukraine situation from another thing, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I understand, And the Ukraine's kind of like Cuba, and
Speaker 1: it's just like yo, like we told you all, y'all
Speaker 1: can have your country back, but we told you couldn't
Speaker 1: have NATO here. Then as soon as we give your
Speaker 1: country back, you want to bring NATO here. There's no
Speaker 1: way we're gonna let a NATO base our enemies, we are,
Speaker 1: we share of a border to touch each other. And
Speaker 1: I was like, the same reason that we don't want
Speaker 1: Cuba to be free, because you're too close. The first
Speaker 1: thing they're gonna do is strike a deal with China
Speaker 1: and make a base there. You too close, y'all too close,
Speaker 1: it's too close. That's too days, sucked up a long
Speaker 1: time ago, is dat? So? But and I understand it.
Speaker 1: It's fucked up. That what I'm saying is we need
Speaker 1: to shut the funk up about it, because are you
Speaker 1: gonna take credit? Because can you guarantee me a hundred
Speaker 1: percent that if we've lift all the embargoes, China's not
Speaker 1: coming through there tomorrow. No, you can't get and and
Speaker 1: and they probably are. Yeah, I mean, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: a lot of ways you can watch this, and you know,
Speaker 1: I hate to bring it to this, but like, you
Speaker 1: watch this in Afghanistan because you know who ain't left
Speaker 1: in China and Russia. They ain't left Afghanistan. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Everybody else gone, They're not right, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, who's your friends? Yep, who's your homies?
Speaker 1: And especially and and it puts you in a situation.
Speaker 1: It's so crazy. It's not even the topic of this one,
Speaker 1: but this works out perfect because it puts you in
Speaker 1: a situation to where you like, uh, China and Russia
Speaker 1: can always look at Afghani government and be like, hey
Speaker 1: where your homies go? Yeah, hey they left, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Even if it's like bullshit, boy, you're like,
Speaker 1: well they've been here for twenty years, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's like, well, well they're gone now and
Speaker 1: look and look. And if you Taliban, you gotta remember
Speaker 1: isis are they are opt the whole time? And they
Speaker 1: just showed out a few a couple of days ago
Speaker 1: that like, oh we're not gone. No, we still blow
Speaker 1: up ship. So if you Taliban You're like, I better
Speaker 1: get me some homies over here, because you hearsel I
Speaker 1: was saying, because they've never stopped being up. So just
Speaker 1: because we're gone, just because the police gone, you know
Speaker 1: a k America don't mean that, Like the streets ain't
Speaker 1: still hot. So you gotta have some friends, you gotta
Speaker 1: and America saying we're done having friends in the region. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're done having friends and got it. We might we
Speaker 1: might have to put people on the streets to vaccinate
Speaker 1: other people. We might have a situation situation back home.
Speaker 1: It could be BLM. It could be vaccines. I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: so be hurricanes, like, yeah, we're spreading ourselves right. It
Speaker 1: could be Cuba, like it could be So to bring
Speaker 1: in full circle, America was like, man, I don't give
Speaker 1: y'all figure this out. We got over here at some
Speaker 1: point in America. And I think Joe Baren is a
Speaker 1: perfect president to say, I don't give a funk, Yes, Joe,
Speaker 1: I think just Joe makes the of decisions man, Like
Speaker 1: I like, I've liked Joe Biden as a politician. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's like me saying I like a cricket player, Like
Speaker 1: I don't watch cricket much, you know, but I heard
Speaker 1: him give a speech once, you know, I mean, I
Speaker 1: drank with this cricket player at the bar one time.
Speaker 1: He told me a funny joke like this guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Joe Biden when he asked, like, you know, I'm in
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight my intro to my major major
Speaker 1: label album, the first thing I wanted to say was
Speaker 1: something about the Sudonese people and what was going on
Speaker 1: to Sudan two thousand and eight before it became a hashtag,
Speaker 1: and that was a big thing leading into the two
Speaker 1: thousand and eight election for me and Joe Biden was like,
Speaker 1: I don't give a funk about sanctions. He's like, they're gangsters,
Speaker 1: their thugs. They respect to show first. Because Oprah asked
Speaker 1: him like what would you do about Sudan, he said,
Speaker 1: I would go in there and start popping. Basically, I
Speaker 1: would go in there start popping niggas, let him know
Speaker 1: we need me business and to leave these people alone
Speaker 1: because they respect for us. They're not like a poor country.
Speaker 1: What is the point of the country. Respect about economic stations.
Speaker 1: They didn't have shipped to begin with. They don't give
Speaker 1: a fuck about money. No, and That's why I knew
Speaker 1: what kind of president Joe Biden would be. He's gonna
Speaker 1: make the decisions that make him unpopular and people die
Speaker 1: and not give a funk, not give a funk. He doesn't.
Speaker 1: That's not what he gives a funk about. He gives
Speaker 1: a funk about getting ship done. What does this look
Speaker 1: like to pass? He's a lifetime politician. Yeah, I want
Speaker 1: to pack I said this initiative. I said this. I
Speaker 1: want to get it done, whether it's gonna age well,
Speaker 1: whether it's bussing and you know what, right, Yeah, So
Speaker 1: there's a power. There is a power in not giving
Speaker 1: a funk and understanding what the funk you do give
Speaker 1: a funk about? Right, And you ain't gonna make everybody happy,
Speaker 1: you know, even sometimes the people that you may have
Speaker 1: promised in the beginning, right that I'm gonna do this
Speaker 1: for you. But if you have an attitude of like, well,
Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of don't give fun, then you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, we gotta figure out as
Speaker 1: the constituents like, Okay, well, how do I chlde you accountable? Right?
Speaker 1: Because you don't give funk, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: But and that's my thing is like there's people said
Speaker 1: we want to bring the troops back. Has been a
Speaker 1: theme amongst the left for so long, and now here's
Speaker 1: the niggatives actually doing it. And that's Joe Biden. Because oh,
Speaker 1: you said you wanted the troops on, I'm gonna do
Speaker 1: it and I don't give a fuck, and and everybody's like,
Speaker 1: but we do give a fun is because you motherfucker's
Speaker 1: don't understand what it means to bring the troops on.
Speaker 1: It was just something cute to say for a long time,
Speaker 1: but now you got a guy that's like one. And
Speaker 1: what I like about Joe Biden too is like he understands.
Speaker 1: You know, me and my family have had real loss
Speaker 1: and I was driving today thinking about like it's made
Speaker 1: me cold hearted, Like this is somebody who's daughters and
Speaker 1: and wife die his first one in a car accident.
Speaker 1: So he's okay with making tough decisions where people die,
Speaker 1: but not from a place of those are people with
Speaker 1: no faces of practice. I've lost people really close to
Speaker 1: me too, and I had to go on, He's he
Speaker 1: understands life goes on, and rarely did we get a
Speaker 1: politician that understands life goes on. I have to think
Speaker 1: about the big picture, and I trust him to do
Speaker 1: the things that are hard that he thinks will have
Speaker 1: a great outcome. Now I don't us to his evaluation
Speaker 1: of outcome. Yeah, but from his position, you know, like
Speaker 1: people like he voted to put the troops there, well cool,
Speaker 1: then he's voting to bring them home. Yeah, and he
Speaker 1: was like, oh shit, all right, well we're better, like
Speaker 1: we'll better finish it. Yeah, that's good man. That's a
Speaker 1: good way to look at it. It's almost like using
Speaker 1: the I don't give a funk for your own advantage
Speaker 1: in the like, well I know you're gonna you're gonna
Speaker 1: do it. And a good example, like you said, is
Speaker 1: like it's gonna take life loss. And I think I
Speaker 1: feel like I've said this a few times, like everybody
Speaker 1: was afraid to pull this trigger because they don't want
Speaker 1: that blood on their hands. They don't want to be
Speaker 1: the president when you've been to and that's my thing
Speaker 1: is too. It's like when I told also when I
Speaker 1: was in st Bars, like it was my wife and
Speaker 1: our first child after burying our son, Like that's nothing
Speaker 1: Like I was really like I don't give a like
Speaker 1: I've never like I've been in gang things and fights
Speaker 1: and stuff. You know, I done some cold blood and ship.
Speaker 1: I've slapped the ship out of motherfucker's I've done some
Speaker 1: cold ship. But after my son died, Nigga, there's not
Speaker 1: verrely many people. I can look at you and when
Speaker 1: I tell you, I don't give a fuck. I'm seen
Speaker 1: the worst. I know what darkness is, broth and and
Speaker 1: that's what Joe Biden, that's what you're dealing with, and
Speaker 1: that Like I always look at a parent of uh politicians,
Speaker 1: how long have they been married? Who have they been
Speaker 1: married to? You know, their faith is important, but not
Speaker 1: as much as and then what have you lost? You
Speaker 1: lost something like McCain was a motherfucker, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But he has seen some ship and at
Speaker 1: the end, you know, you can always reason with the
Speaker 1: motherfucker when you die, motherfucker. You know, Like when it
Speaker 1: got to the Trump part, McCain was like, nah, I'm
Speaker 1: not working with this guy. Yeah, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: because Trump is somebody who really what does he give
Speaker 1: a funk about? You know, but he's the one I
Speaker 1: don't give a funk. Yes, I love it. Are we up? Time?
Speaker 1: I think that's time. Merce You have taken this to
Speaker 1: a direction I didn't know a go, and I love
Speaker 1: the place you took it. You took it in to
Speaker 1: an art form of understanding what I don't give a
Speaker 1: fun means that's even better than I would have done.
Speaker 1: But I learned about Joe what was it Joe Manutian? Yeah,
Speaker 1: like Minuta, like Manuchin Manuchka Manuchin. Do Santosa knew about
Speaker 1: He's he'son crazy? Then we have at Um Abbott and
Speaker 1: Who's Who's abbots? Wet Alan West? Alan was related to
