Probably I was watching Love Is Blind, 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.360 and somehow I found time to watch like most of 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.000 the oscars. So I'm not even gonna lie, but I 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:34.960 read some notes, I saw some clips. Doesn't count if 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:37.520 you watch the cold open of SNL and you saw 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:42.320 the parody that scarlets of that Republican woman that did 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:47.040 the for the reports.

Same thing happened last year, 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.320 and that we got to meet the first Lady. She 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.920 comes to say hello. This time we did a champagne toast, 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:56.960 which is cool. We also got to meet the first Gentleman, 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.920 Kamala Harris's husband came to say hello, I can't remember 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:01.320 his name. 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:05.320 Sorry, sir Dennis, I don't know. 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:07.320 I'm sorry. 0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:12.000 We can barely see Kamala, so like let alone her husband. 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.240 And then we watched the State of the Union, take 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:19.400 your notes, do your socials. And then then afterwards like 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:21.240 so we get to see the president and the first 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:25.000 lady leaves. They have us all on like the verandah yeah, 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.159 and then afterwards we kind of you get to actually 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:29.320 come down to the ground level where the car pulls up. 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:31.640 President gets out, and then he greeted us. He actually 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:34.280 said something really really powerful when he came to us. 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.640 He said, you know, you guys on this like you know, 0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:40.000 the fifty of you or whatever like on these on 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:45.240 these steps, you know you collectively reach you reach more 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:49.720 people with your platforms than all the networks combined, probably, 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:52.280 And yes, no it's true because there are people there 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:54.359 were millions and millions and millions of followers, you know, 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:56.919 and you think about the views and everything else. And 0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.279 he was like, this is why it's so important that 0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:02.240 we wanted to have you here, because we want our 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:04.320 message to get to as many young people as possible. 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:05.760 And I just want to really want to thank you 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:08.080 for helping us spread that message. And I thought that's 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:10.760 really powerful that this is the second year they've done this, 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.120 and how smart. And if you see, they literally have 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.880 a social media division for the White House and I 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:19.600 love it because it's filled with young people that understand 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.839 how to navigate, you know, And I just thought, wow, 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:24.119 first of all, what a cool job. 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:29.920 Yeah, they're basically doing the work of every like grandchild's 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:34.400 twenty something grandchild like Joe, Papa, Joe, let me see 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.240 your phone. This is how you This is Instagram. 0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:40.440 Yes, And so it's because his grand his grandkids were 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:44.960 actually there, which is really cute. And so it was 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:45.680 just a really. 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.440 Love Jill and Biden, Like I love their love story. Yes, 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:50.640 And I just wish they could sit down and enjoy 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:53.680 each other, you know what I mean, Like I wish 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:55.880 they could just like do what my grandparents did, which 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:57.760 is just have a bunch of frozen apple pie in 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.480 the freezer with the Mayfield vanilla ice cream and box 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.679 and watch Jeopardy and do the crossword and just be happy, 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:05.640 do you know what I mean? But here they are 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:09.640 saving us from potentially another four years with Voldemort. Hey 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:11.479 be a fan we're going to take a quick break 0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:12.559 and we'll be right back. 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:18.599 I'll say this that, so the state of the Union, 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:20.919 some of the things that kind of pertain to like 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:22.800 our audience, I mean, all of it obviously pertains if 0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.919 you're in a United States citizen. But some of the 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:29.280 things that stood out to me were he proposed extending 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:35.440 negotiations for prescription junk, so Medicare can directly now negotiate 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.200 with drug companies, and they've been able to do so 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:42.800 very successfully. So, for example, they were able to get 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:46.920 insolent cap at thirty five dollars, which is tremendous because 0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:49.200 for some people it was just insolent. It's like if 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:52.000 you don't get it in your diabetic you don't live. Yeah, 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:54.280 And so to price it at a way that that 0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.560 a person can't you're sentencing people to death, right, and 0:06:57.600 --> 0:06:58.400 so's they're. 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:01.080 Like, it is negotiating with it. So is that for 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:04.000 people who are on medicare, yes, to be able. 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:06.800 To say like, Okay, you can't go past this. He's 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:10.520 also wanted to cap drug cross across the the I 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.240 guess across the map at two thousand dollars monthly and 0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:17.040 not monthly annually. So like if I believe if you're 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:18.800 Medicare or I don't know, if it's just Medicare and 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.679 he didn't see it didn't specify, or just in general, 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.520 if you are on prescription drugs, that your drugs collectively 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:26.440 should not cost you more than two thousand dollars for 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:30.160 the year. That's something that he proposed, okay, because you know, 0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:32.840 for some people, like sometimes one drug is two thousand dollars. 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.920 Yeah, especially if you have something like cancer. Yeah, I 0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:39.160 mean it's wild to me that, like my dad has 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:40.920 been in the hospital for a long time and we 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:44.160 are all just like hanging home for dear life with 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:48.560 those bills that start hitting. Yeah, you got one medication. Yes, 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.360 it's cost that much. So that's okay, But that's proposed. 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.320 So the Congress got to do what Congress. 0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:55.640 Got to do. The thirty five dollars, it's happening already, 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:57.920 and he wants to extend it like that, extend that 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:02.720 that that that correction. Something else that he's proposed was 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.840 a four hundred dollars monthly tax credit for two years 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:08.400 to home buyers to help them buy new homes. So 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:10.360 you would get this to like you know, so you. 0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.920 Can negotiate with the banks for a lower interest. 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:14.600 I know. Child. He was like, look, this is what 0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:17.080 I can do. He also wants to get rid of 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:19.880 title insurance. That's what would save about a thousand dollars. 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:24.280 Okay, yeah, because like it's such a you know, that's 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:29.240 supposedly to ensure that like so like someone else could 0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:31.520 come and say, I had the title to this house. Yes, 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.720 just like throw off your whole thing. But I don't 0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:35.199 even know how much that happened so. 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:38.160 Exactly, so it's like, you know, these for fee's sake, 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:42.719 fee for the pppee for pepee, you know. So he 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:46.920 also said that he wants to impose no new taxes 0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.280 on anyone, any household earning under four hundred thousand dollars 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:55.160 a year. Then instead, he was like, they need to 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.600 raise the tax on billionaires. So there's about a thousand 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:00.880 billionaires in the United States, Mandy, can you guess what 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:04.080 percentage of their income they pay in taxes? Like what 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:05.440 their tax rate is currently? 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:08.640 Probably like two percent, I mean, because they have all 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:09.920 these loopholes that they get through. 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.520 Girl, the average billionaire pays just over eight percent. Now, 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:16.120 can you guess what the average middle class person pays 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:17.079 for taxes. 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:21.040 I could guess from personal experience it's a lot more. 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:23.120 It's like twenty five percent. 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:26.280 Yes, between twenty two and thirty two percent, So you're 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.439 right on the nose. So can you imagine that, like 0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:35.400 these billionaires paying on average eight percent when like, why 0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:37.600 should I remember as a preschool teacher, I remember distinctly 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:40.600 I was twenty one percent as a preschool teacher, making 0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:43.319 thirty nine thousand dollars a year, and meanwhile, your local 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:48.640 friendly billionaire is paying eight percent or less. Why why 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.600 is more of my money going when like the impact 0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:54.480 of every billionaire paying he wants to He wanted to 0:09:54.760 --> 0:09:57.600 make it that no billionaire would pay less than twenty 0:09:57.679 --> 0:09:59.760 five percent, which to me is even like low. 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:03.240 I mean, the tax code is written for businesses and 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:07.120 billionaires to have that access to those kinds of tax loopholes. 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:10.760 I mean that was one of Trump's big pieces of 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:14.880 legislation with the American Jobs and Tax cook a two 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:18.000 thousand whatever it was. So yeah, it's no surprise. So 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:20.640 I would love to see some tax reform that eases 0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:24.120 the burden on the rest of us who are like, 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:27.040 can we get you know, my big thing is like, 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:29.480 can I get a tax deduction for the three thousand 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:31.280 dollars a month I pay in childcare? 0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:31.840 Girl? 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:36.400 Like, that's wild. It is wild that there aren't benefits 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:39.160 like that. My husband has that, like dependent care FSA 0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:43.080 only five thousand dollars a year. Wow, less than two 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:49.400 months worth of wow take care expenses. You know. So yeah, 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:52.200 I hope. I don't know if it'll be like the 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:56.400 Biden's term, but I'm hoping we get like a family first, 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:59.560 like childcare activist in the White House, I mean, just 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:01.240 doing some basic shit. 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:04.559 You know, I mean, well, you know. And so he 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:09.000 spoke about investing in HBCUs. You know historically black colleges 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:10.920 and university. He didn't get specific about it. He just 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:13.400 said wanted to invest in them. So I don't know 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:16.760 what that means. Also, too, he spoke about so far 0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:19.679 about four million students have been helped with their reform 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:20.600 with student loans. 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:24.160 He pays me one like of his big got that's done. 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:26.079 Well, you know, obviously he got pushed back, he said, 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.720 because it was about thirty five million students more that 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:30.760 if he would have pushed it would have been affected. 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:33.600 So it was about it was about forty million students 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.840 that would have positively been affected by the you know, 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.120 the bill that he was trying to push through, and 0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:42.000 they had to acquiesce to something smaller. But so far 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:43.599 four million people have been helped, but they're trying to 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:48.680 still push. Yeah, it was And honestly, afterwards, they did, 0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:50.640 like I think it was CNN or Wall Street Journal, 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:53.640 they did some sort of like I don't know, like 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:55.680 a poll, and they said about fifty six percent of 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:57.600 people who watched the State of the Union felt like 0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.200 that he had a better handle on the economy. So 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:01.719 there seems to be some like, you know. 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:07.560 I mean, there's the economy, which by all measures is 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:11.400 doing well, and then they're like, you know, our personal economy, yes, 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:13.959 which I came home with two bags of groceries and 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:14.920 it was one hundred and forty. 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:18.520 Girl, everybody I know is like I broke I dronk. 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:20.680 When I opened my trunk, Tiffany, this happened this morning. 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:23.480 The carton of eggs slipped out of the bag and 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.280 fell on the floor, and I was like, I wanted 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:32.520 to do what those dramatic movie seems like ten fucking dollars, 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:37.080 I mean, just trash immediately. Yeah, and I think that's 0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:40.480 where the disconnect is. Yes, I'm happy to hear that 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.920 four hundred dollars that tax credit for homeowners. That is 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:46.679 something that he's proposing. It hasn't been passed or hasn't 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:51.720 been so something like that. But yeah, this, uh, you know, 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:55.560 and it just it adds fuel to the fire for 0:12:55.760 --> 0:13:00.000 like families who feel like, Okay, things are getting more expensive. 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.520 The economy is doing well, but at the same time, 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:06.000 it's like we're not exactly seeing the huge wage growth 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:09.400 that was happening because you know, the FED is trying 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:11.480 to stop wage growth because that's part of the fight 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:15.840 against inflation, right, But it's like, so at what point 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:18.520 is it too much in the other direction? 0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:20.920 Like well he said like he was like, we have 0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:22.800 to raise So minimum wage was something he talked about 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:26.280 as well. I remember saying, like, you know, people, minimum 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:30.120 wage is supposed to reflect that at the bare minimum, 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:33.120 this should be able to support you and your family, like, 0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:36.160 and it hasn't in a very long time. He's talked 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:38.440 about that. He also talked about like he has a 0:13:38.440 --> 0:13:42.800 big environmental stance. Apparently he passed the biggest legislation in 0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:46.600 the world to protect and support the environment that's ever 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:50.559 been passed. And that just was like, okay, So because 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.400 before we met, so when you go to the White House, 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:59.320 so like before but before you get there, we got 0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:02.040 that little early and you got to we got to 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:05.720 kind of meet and chat with people who were working 0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:07.960 on like these like so there was an I don't 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:10.840 remember his name, but he was an environmentalist working at 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.440 the White House and sharing like how this legislation has 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:17.559 been like literally earth moving, you know, and I did 0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:17.880 not know. 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:20.120 That I was because that do like like that that 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:22.920 sounds so stupid, I know, like it I like does 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:24.960 that environmental legislation. 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.200 Dude, like like you know, minimizing like what kind of 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:31.920 materials can be used in certain ways, like regulating like 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:35.680 how materials are disposed of? What else did you say? 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:38.680 He was just taking care of microplastics because that's taken 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:44.400 up an inordinate amount of stress, yes, by useless anxiety bucket. 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:46.720 So it's just like also too, like you know, like 0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:50.520 I'm investing into clean energy. So that was really interesting. 0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:53.680 I was just like, okay, so you got to really 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:55.480 meet like I got to meet Oh, what's her name? 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:59.640 She's the the first black woman. Oh my gosh, she's 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:01.600 so awesome. So we got to ask her a question 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:04.840 and I was just like, Kareeine Jane, let me say 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:06.640 press secretary. 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:08.280 I don't know. I saw that picture and I geeked. 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:12.520 I was like, oh, in my head is April Franklin 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:13.160 and that is not. 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:20.480 So it's Karne Jean Pierre. Yes, did I make that up? Okay? No, No, 0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:25.920 she's Haitian. Both of her parents are Haitian, you know, 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:27.000 like immigrants. 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:29.400 That was the country that Tom said was like, what 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:35.480 did you call Haiti something stupid? Yes, just meanwhile, she's 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:37.000 got her I mean what I. 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.520 Love about her though, so something.

She's like, honestly, 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:48.240 she said, I learned a while ago that I don't 0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:50.440 read anything about myself. I don't read anything good, I 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:54.120 don't read anything bad, So that way nothing affects me, like, 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:55.600 so I don't get to She's like, because this is 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:57.560 how to take care of my mental health, because you know, 0:15:57.600 --> 0:15:59.360 the good will have you up and then crashing back down, 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:01.680 and the bad will have you feeling bad. And she said, 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.680 over time, you develop a really thick skin. She was 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:07.120 honestly so hilaried. She was like, because you know, they 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:09.120 were talking about how Fox is always basking me. She's like, yeah, 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.880 they're like obsessed with me.

She was like, it's honestly, it's borderline obsession. 0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:25.880 But she was like, honestly, it doesn't bother me because 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:28.240 I just refused to ingest anything good or bad. I 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:29.960 get to live in the moment with my partner, with 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:32.360 my family, with my friends, and do my job and 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:34.480 that's it.

But she was like, yeah, I don't. 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:46.800 I just don't subscribe to any any of the good 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:51.440 or the bad. And then I ask her questions exactly. 0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:53.360 So I asked her question. I was like, let's lighten 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:56.440 it up. I was like, you know, Jean Pierre.
