Speaker 3: that issue. Thank you for holding nuance for that issue.

17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 3: I am tired of people putting down protesters and other

18
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 3: people who are raising this issue and dismissing them as

19
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 3: Trump supporters or as people who who don't understand the stakes.

20
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 3: We understand the stakes. I'm gonna vote Harris Wallace I'm

21
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 3: gonna vote Democrat down ticket, but I also am gonna

22
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: hold the elected leaders empower to account to do the

23
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 3: right thing by the Palastining people, by all peoples around

Speaker 1: Lampi where we give it to you straight note Chaser.

30
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: We are fresh off the DNC. I want to shout

31
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: out everybody who is tuning in with us every day.

32
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: We are your hosts. I'm Tiffany Cross here with my

33
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: co host Andrew Gillim and Angela Raie.

34
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 4: What's up, y'all, id you fresh off that summer heat

35
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 4: wave up there in the northeast or fresh on.

36
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: It's eight thousand degrees? But what I want to talk

37
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: about what they just heard at the top of the show,

38
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 1: and that was all the praise that we received from

39
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: from from so many of you guys who tuned in.

40
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 6: Welcome home Robert. That's all right. You know he was

41
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 6: busting stereotypes at at the top of the show. Tiff

42
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 6: he uh he. You know, we they tell us that

43
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 6: we only have black folks listening to this show and

44
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 6: that's not the case.

45
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: Well, we knew that shot. I didn't I know.

46
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 6: I just I was I'm busting the myth, the myth

47
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 6: busting for everybody else.

48
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: Oh like I thought somebody was telling us we only

49
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 1: had black listers.

50
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 6: Well they say it's it's it is predominantly black. But

51
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 6: I like that we have, you know, representation here. The

52
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 6: Rainbow Coalition also reperenced South Carolina, which you may not

53
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 6: expect the white dude from South Carolina to say this,

54
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 6: So I just appreciate all around shout out to you.

55
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: I gotta say I would expect the white dudes from

56
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: South Carolina to say that. I think this whole myth

57
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: around the South being read, I always say it's only

58
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: read until it ain't. There are very progressive pockets of

59
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: the South, particularly in South Carolina, in North Carolina, in Alabama,

60
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: in Mississippi. All these places have people, a diverse coalition

61
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: of voters, and some of those people and are venn diagram.

62
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: We have a diverse coalition of listeners. So I'm really

63
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: not surprised when I hear, no matter what people look like,

64
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: when they have expressive thoughts. Having grown up in the South.

65
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: From the South, I want to say, there are always

66
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: people with progressive outlooks so happy to welcome home this day.

67
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 6: I can't wait till their numbers look like that, because

68
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 6: that's not how the Embers look better.

69
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to get into that in the show because

70
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: I actually do think their numbers are growing, but there

71
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: are rampant voter suppression efforts happening. So probably a good

72
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: time in the show because we have I.

73
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 4: Was gonna say just some of the I want to

74
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 4: thank the brother one for being a listener obviously, but

75
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 4: Brady Day one, he's a OG and then feeling comfortable

76
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 4: and sending that video in I really appreciated that. But

77
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: I'll tell you the salutes have really been rounded Angela

78
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 4: and Tiffany. I was just at the African Methodist Episcopal

79
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 4: Conclave or convention with a bunch of ams y'all, and

80
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 4: and they have been praying for us. A lot of

81
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 4: listeners there. But I want to particularly shout out the

82
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 4: senior Bishop of the afric of African METHODOM in the

83
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 4: United States, Bishop A. J. Richardson, former pastor at the

84
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: church that I attend, and A Rattler and his wife

85
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: Connie richardson, who are avid listeners y'all? When they told

86
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,679
Speaker 4: me that, I said, I'm sorry for the cuss words,

87
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 4: and I got to say, I ain't gonna say who,

88
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 4: but one of these very religious figures says, sometimes it

89
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 4: takes some emphasis, so.

90
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: I wasn't happy to be excused. I speak it, I

91
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: walk it like I talk it, I speak it like

92
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: I mean. But I will tell you another A woman

93
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: said that to me that she listens in the car

94
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: with her kids, and I was like, you listen with

95
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: your kids in my body mouth? And she was like,

96
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 1: do you do you know high school kids nowadays? Do

97
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 1: you know what they've listened to? Like you ain't saying nothing,

98
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: but anyway, she said that her kids will like come

99
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: back and tell her stuff that we said. So we

100
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: have a diverse co listen to listener. So we don't

101
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: want to keep y'all waiting anymore. Let's get into the show. Yeah,

102
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to, but I just

103
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: want to say we are rundown at the DNC was

104
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: fire a lot better than any other because I wasn't

105
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: really watching because we were on air. So when I

106
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: look back and saw all the other people I'm like,

107
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: this stuff is whack. So we said this on the

108
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: last show. I'll say it again because angel will always deflect.

109
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: But Angela was the one booking the show, texting people

110
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,799
Speaker 1: getting people to come by that.

111
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 6: It's literally it's literally not true. And I really want

112
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 6: to make sure that people understand how dope of a

113
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 6: team we have. I thank god that people think highly

114
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 6: enough of us that they want to come on the show.

115
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 6: But we had someone who was working NonStop around the

116
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 6: clock booking the show, and that is our research producer, Lolo,

117
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 6: So I want to make sure we give her the credit.

118
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 6: And Tiff, thank you for the guests that you added. Andrew,

119
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,799
Speaker 6: thanks for the guests that you added. It is my honor,

120
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 6: my pleasure, pleasure to work alongside y'all. But I did

121
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 6: not book the whole show.

122
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: Let me say thank you to Lolo, which we said

123
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: last week. I will say it again, but I'm going

124
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: to reiterate. Lolo could have been doing that for any show.

125
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 1: People responded and showed up because the relationship they have

126
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: with you when you work on Capitol Hill. Because the

127
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: guest they have relationships with us too. But you were

128
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: pressing people, Angela was rolling up on people on the floor, like, hey,

129
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: come do our show. So don't let Angela deflex. We

130
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: have she has, she had people supporting her, but she

131
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: was up early, up late, on the phone, all the time,

132
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: running around and people showed up because Angela told them

133
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: they had to. So thank you. And I know you

134
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: want to say everybody, we think everybody, but I just

135
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: think it's warrant to give you a shout out. And

136
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: the fact that our covers literally look better than everybody else.

137
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: Nobody else had our rundown. We had Kamala Harris's campaign

138
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: manager ten minutes before her speech. Nobody had that. And

139
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: Julie showed out because because you asked her too.

140
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 6: So you know, I do have one thing I'm mad about.

141
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 6: Can I tell y'all now we got to wait for

142
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 6: the mini pod?

143
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: Can we do a mini pot on the DNC and

144
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: all the I want to tell the dirty stories bts.

145
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 6: Let me tell this now because this is someone who

146
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 6: I hope is our president one day. Governor Wes Moore,

147
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 6: I'm mad at you. I am mad at you because

148
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 6: I don't understand how we all these people you literally

149
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 6: speak for a living, and you told us that you

150
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 6: couldn't be on our show for five minutes because you

151
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 6: was gonna be your speech. I don't understand, so I'm

152
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 6: a little tight about that. I love you deep, like

153
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 6: it's deep. I've known Dawn longer than you. I love

154
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 6: her deep. I want to see you when we come

155
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 6: to a live podcast, hopefully in Maryland, at your invitation.

156
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 6: That's what I want because I wanted to celebrate that

159
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 4: the guests that we had, the people who we were

160
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 4: able to introduce the listeners to in a more intimate way,

161
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 4: all of it was divine. I hate that he missed out.

162
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 5: I hate missed it too, but it was great.

Speaker 1: you got for us today? What do you want to

195
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: talk about today?

196
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 5: Man?

197
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 4: I want to do so a little bit about the DNC,

198
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 4: but not so much. A bunch of Republicans came out

199
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 4: this week, y'all, over two hundred former staffers to both

200
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 4: forty was it forty one and forty three.

201
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Bushes, the Bushes and McCain. It was President

202
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: Bush and form.

203
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,599
Speaker 4: And of course added to it by some former Trumpers

204
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 4: who have you know, thrown off the yoke. But also

205
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 4: there was this query and I've heard it even up

206
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 4: until this morning, folks who were saying, why are there

207
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 4: so many Republicans at the DNC, and you know, talking

208
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 4: and that kind of thing. And then of course where

209
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 4: the president and Vice president to b are right now

210
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 4: in the state of George.

211
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 5: I want to talk about a.

212
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: Little bit of that cool and what'd you got for us?

213
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: I know what I want you to have for us,

214
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: but what you got for it?

215
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 6: Oh lord? Well, I just want to talk briefly about

216
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 6: the National Federation that I'm now calling the National Confederation

217
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 6: of Republican Assemblies for challenging Kamala Harris being on the

218
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 6: ballot at all. And they cite the dread Sky decision.

219
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 6: So if for those of you miss it, that's circa

220
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 6: eighteen fifty seven. So we'll get into that for emancipation.

221
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I've heard you, but now I get it.

222
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: It's very clever what you said, confederation, you know, I thought, yeah, oh, yeah,

223
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: I thought you said confederation would cun with the teeth,

224
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: But anyway, that's not what you said.

225
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 6: No, no, but yeah, maybe same principle, right, Like, why

226
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 6: are y'all trying to be the Confederacy? It's twenty twenty four? Yeah,

227
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,559
Speaker 6: for sure, tall order for them, I know. And then

228
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 6: the worst part is National Federation of Republican Assemblies call

229
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 6: themselves Frederick Douglass Republicans.

230
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 4: Y'all knowing y'all, Yeah, how are you.

231
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 6: Going to cite the man who wrote what to the

232
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 6: Slave is the fourth of July? And then cite the

233
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 6: dread Scott decision from why black women can't beyond the

234
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 6: ballot in twenty four? Anyway, I'm into it already.

235
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 4: So this is why it is that her saying is

236
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 4: we ain't going back, right.

237
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: That's exactly why we need it. That's exactly why we

238
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 1: need it. Well, I want to get in all their

239
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: might the voter suppression happening across the country because we

240
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: all know that they are going to cheat, and so

241
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: I think this is not going to be an election

242
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: that's decided election day and we already see things happening.

243
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: There were some raids that took place in Texas that

244
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: I'll get into. But black voters and Latino voters are

245
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: clearly a big threat to the GOP. So I want

246
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: to get into that and talk about why. But before

247
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: we get into any of these topics, you know this

248
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: this well as you're listening to this podcast. If you

249
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: listen fresh off the Press is when we drop, then

250
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: you know that Vice President Harris and her running mate

251
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: Tim Wallas have agreed to sit down for their first

252
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: interview with CNN's Dana Bash. I have a lot of

253
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: thoughts about this, Andrew Angela, y'all, what'd y'all take on

254
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: this one?

255
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 4: I mean, I guess my issue isn't so much with

256
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 4: the who the person interviewer. Dana is a wonderful woman, good,

257
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,199
Speaker 4: good person, whatnot. But I just thought, given the delay

258
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 4: and I was behind them on like, hey, take as

259
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 4: long as you need. When you decide is when you

260
00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 4: decide that maybe what they were fomenting was a I

261
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 4: don't know, a new way of doing this. I was expecting,

262
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: probably because everything up to this point has just been

263
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 4: so different. I mean, in truth, she has just bought

264
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 4: such an incredible energy to the race for presidency. The

265
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 4: campaign has shifted in so many ways and walls just

266
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 4: adding to it new layers and new flavor. I don't know,

267
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 4: maybe they're credentialing of these sort of what do you

268
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 4: call these viral hosts that they did for the Democratic

269
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 4: Convention where they brought in people were not necessarily political,

270
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 4: but were viral in their nature, that maybe that might

271
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 4: send a tone that they were going to try a

272
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 4: different medium for this. They went to a more traditional medium,

273
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 4: and at that one that is just an apologies because

274
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 4: I've worked for them at one point in time, just

275
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 4: quite frankly, isn't getting the ratings, Yeah, don't. I don't

276
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 4: understand that choice.

277
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 6: I you know, I got to say, I am thinking that,

278
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 6: given the truncated nature of this campaign, that they would

279
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 6: go somewhere where there is it's not a political show,

280
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 6: it's not a political network, it's not a political host.

281
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 6: It's someone who can really humanize them and reintroduce them

282
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 6: to all the folks who or introduce them to all

283
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 6: the folks who weren't watching the DNC. So even like GMA,

284
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 6: you know, even the Today Show, like even maybe going

285
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 6: there some walk and talk moments, Kamala cooking, because that's

286
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 6: one of her favorite things to do, Tim Walls. Maybe not.

287
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 6: Maybe he's not coaching anymore, but maybe he's on the

288
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 6: football field with some of his old players, like really

289
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 6: going into their regular, everyday lives and providing people with

290
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 6: that insight that we talk about all the time on

291
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 6: our podcast, where people are listening to our conversation, look

292
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 6: at how they move about in life, follow them on

293
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 6: the plane, like like literally what I just I don't understand.

294
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 4: If there's no reason why they can't can't do what

295
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 4: you just described, Angela and ask serious questions.

296
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 6: No, of course, but I'm also suggest the other thing

297
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 6: that I would have suggested to them, again given the

298
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 6: truncated nature of the schedule, is is having a televised

299
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 6: penn and pad so you have folks from multiple outlets

300
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 6: asking them questions. They could still do it together and

301
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 6: then that way that thing is broadcast multi platform. Yeah,

302
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 6: at the same time, it's big enough. And I would

303
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 6: have done that probably the Friday after the convention. And

304
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 6: I don't think that's too late, but I really I

305
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 6: think that that is. And it's again, it's not about Dana,

306
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 6: it's about CNN, it's about all of it. People are

307
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 6: not tuning in there where can you reach people where

308
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 6: you know they or no, only wouldn't be Tim Walls

309
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 6: could go do an ESPN interview because of his sports background,

310
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 6: you know what I mean. Like, there's so many different

311
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 6: ways they could have They could have played this.

312
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: Anyway, you know. I don't think an ESPN interview would

313
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: have been appropriate for their first rollout, and I anticipate

314
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: that he will do that show. I also don't know

315
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: about the right exactly. We hope who knows, but I don't.

316
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if like the walk and talk and

317
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: the cooking is necessarily the image they want to put

318
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: out at this point. Yet either I wouldn't have been

319
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: mad at that. I mean, I can see. I'm just

320
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: trying to think of their perspective, and then I'm also

321
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: trying to think of as a producer, like the amount

322
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: of time and production that would take. And I think

323
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: they probably want to do this as a quick turnaround,

324
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: just so our viewers. No a pinning pad. If something

325
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: happens on the hill a lot to me, that's like

326
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: the most popular place where it happens is a bunch

327
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: of journalists sit around and ask questions. You can have

328
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: a print outlet, you can have producers there. It's something

329
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: where talent doesn't necessarily show up. But that's a really

330
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: great idea because I've had well, not regularly, like Joy

331
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: isn't typically going like this, Cash isn't typically going.

332
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 6: But yeah, that's why I thought it would be different.

333
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 6: You know, like you literally bring everybody together almost like

334
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 6: a summit, or like you think about the White House

335
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 6: Press briefing room, but they're just sitting right, I'm just

336
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 6: explaining it to your point. Tip to the listeners, guy,

337
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 6: set a pin and pad with no content. Yeah, so

338
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 6: we're in the White House Press briefing room where everybody's sitting.

339
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 6: Instead of it being that room, have like a big

340
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 6: round table where Kamala and Tim Walls are also sitting.

341
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be that. Yeah, and I've never really

342
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: I don't recall or it's not a regular thing to

343
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: see something like that televised. So I love the idea.

344
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: Like Buck though trends, you know, like everything has gone out.

345
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 1: I know you guys like Dana Bash. I worked with

346
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: Dana over twenty five years ago. So Danna used to

347
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: be a producer before she was an on air talent.

348
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: And I remember on nine to eleven I was a

349
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: young associate producer in the newsroom and I had to

350
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: run and get her tapes at the Monocle on Capitol Hill.

351
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: This is back when she was a producer. So this

352
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 1: is nothing personal. I think Dana does what she knows

353
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: how to do, and so often that is the ancestuous

354
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: Beltway media. They're talking to each other, for each other,

355
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 1: about each other. They're looking to get, you know, those

356
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: gotcha questions, that sound bite to make some news, and

357
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 1: that is not necessarily what the American people need. That's

358
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,640
Speaker 1: what the Beltway press needs. It's not what the American

359
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: people need. I think she asked the questions to her

360
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: narrow lived experience, and so for example, when she was

361
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,919
Speaker 1: interviewing Jade Vance, which I thought, quite frankly noticed to

362
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: her was not a great interview, and she asked his

363
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,439
Speaker 1: opinion on whether he thought Vice President Harris was or not,

364
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: who gives a shit with this man thinks about her race?

365
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: I thought that was a completely inappropriate question. I thought

366
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: the question is self trafficked in racism. She allowed jd

367
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: Vance to talk about Walls's military service without any follow up,

368
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: without confronting him about things that Donald Trump has said

369
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,239
Speaker 1: about those who served in the military without confronting him

370
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump's own lack of military service. So I

371
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: just don't know that you know any like I could

372
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: certainly do the interview and ask the kind of questions

373
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: that Dana would ask, But I'm also like most of

374
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: us have had to be ambidexterous enough that I could

375
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: ask her about issues that are relevant to the black community.

376
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: I can ask her about issues relevant to the Latino community,

377
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: to the Asian American Pacific Islander community, to indigenous communities,

378
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: the places where these races will be one on the margins,

379
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: And I just think that she tends to center whiteness

380
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: in a way that may not be intentional, but it's

381
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: very much what happens, and it's not her. When you

382
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: do have a presidential interview at a network, everyone is involved.

383
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: The head of the DC Burrel is involved, the president

384
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: of the network is involved, all your producers, Congressional Hill like,

385
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: it's huge rooms of people weighing in on these I've

386
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: been in those rooms weighing in on these types of elections.

387
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: So it's a lot of different perspectives that I think

388
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: are missed, which is why it's so important to have

389
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: people of color, not just on air, but behind the camera. Andrew,

390
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: I know you want to weigh in. We're coming up

391
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: against the heartbreak. You bring us back on the other side,

392
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: and we'll pick it up from there. Got to pay

393
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: some bill, y'all. We'll be right back.

394
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 5: Indeed, welcome back, y'all.

395
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 4: We're just talking about this interview, the first interview that

396
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:48,680
Speaker 4: Vice President Harris and Governor Wallas will be conducting with CNN.

397
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 4: And I, I mean, I was just going to say,

398
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 4: to the extent that your experiences and I take you

399
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 4: at your word around your assessment of what it was

400
00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 4: like working with Dana, I actually think that what you

401
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 4: said there is actually being parroted by nearly every journalist

402
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 4: that I see on television. This, I mean lesser Holt

403
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 4: disappointed me when he interviewed Biden and said, you know,

404
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 4: try to equalize what he had been saying on the

405
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 4: trail to the violence being promoted.

406
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 6: By Donald Trump.

407
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 4: There was just no space for that to take place.

408
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 4: Except they're all doing this out of what I believe

409
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 4: is a knee jerk reaction to criticism that the right

410
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 4: is going to wield their direction any way it comes.

411
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter who does the interview, that the right

412
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 4: is going to be disappointed by it and they're going

413
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 4: to create some sort of side show. So that being said,

414
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 4: I just felt like, and I think this is consistent

415
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 4: with I don't know that the patent pen would have

416
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 4: been my recommendation only because it's it might look like

417
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 4: chaos to the viewer if it's that, and I'm sure

418
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 4: they probably don't want that to be the image as well,

419
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 4: but something innovative. This was a moment I think for innovation,

420
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 4: and if there was a ticket that could have delivered innovation,

421
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 4: I think the way that they have curated so far,

422
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 4: their introduction to their can people as presidential and vice

423
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 4: presidential candidate candidates has been quite frankly superb. This looks

424
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 4: like a little bit of a sort of standing place

425
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 4: turn and I don't think we have time for standing

426
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 4: in place. Every day has to be momentum building movement,

427
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 4: and I don't know that this does it. But guess what,

428
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 4: I trusted them up to this point and they have overperformed.

429
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 4: Maybe there's enough a performance coming on this one.

430
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: I mean, the candidate's not the interviewer.

431
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 4: The candidates that is, of course, they gotta have.

432
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 6: They gotta have a kitchen cabinet that's larger than normal

433
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 6: because they got to cover more ground than normal, though,

434
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 6: and I just think they cannot. I don't know when

435
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 6: the next interview is. It should be a slew of them,

436
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 6: and I think they could be. We're not gonna sit down.

437
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 6: Y'all got to catch us on the trail, right, like

438
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 6: they got to do a lot of stuff in one movement.

439
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 6: While you're on the trail, you recording those ads. While

440
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 6: you're recording those ads, you get growing your base. While

441
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 6: you grow in your base, you shaking hands with Sarrogen's

442
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,239
Speaker 6: making sure that they got their marchin orders. Why are

443
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 6: you doing that? You want to call Andrew just like

444
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 6: you used to have a press briefing, call messaging car

445
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 6: every morning, like you just got to do everything it wants.

446
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: Angela, what do you want to hear from them? If

447
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 1: you can give them one piece of advice, Like, here's

448
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 1: the thing I want you to hit home in this interview.

449
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 6: I want them to not run away from truth. I

450
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 6: think that Democratic candidates have a way of hedging that

451
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 6: they can't afford to do in this election season. I

452
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 6: think that our candidates get focused on trying to please

453
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 6: folks on polar opposite sides, and you just have to

454
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 6: talk about nuance. You have to talk about the gray.

455
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 6: You have to say, hey, you know, this is something

456
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 6: whether it's you know, what's happening in Palestine, this is

457
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 6: something I'm wrestling with. I've heard the story of this

458
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 6: person that person, and have shed real tears. This is difficult.

459
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 6: We're gonna need all hands on deck. These are the

460
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 6: kinds of things that I want to see happen so

461
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 6: we can reach a ceasefire. Like just being honest with

462
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 6: folks and not starting with hey first before I say

463
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 6: anything else. Israel has a right to defend itself. We know,

464
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,719
Speaker 6: Oh that's right, Like you know what I mean? Like

465
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,679
Speaker 6: not those typical cookie cutter talking points. I think that

466
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 6: would make me the most happy and excited about their

467
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 6: ability to grow their base, because they need to rest

468
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 6: in truth and feel very good about speaking truth and

469
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 6: being clear when they don't know, but they know they

470
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 6: need to get there.

471
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 1: I have to say, Andrew, I the specific thing that

472
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: I want them to talk about. Obviously, domestic policy is

473
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: a huge deal. Inflation is still hidding. You know, the

474
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: kitchen table and those kitchen table topics are hugely important,

475
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 1: so presumably that I do want to hear her response,

476
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: specifically on Iran and the urseoning challenges we're having with

477
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: some of our foreign adversaries. My reasoning is, I would

478
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: like for this country to normalize what it to have

479
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 1: a woman as commander in chief, to normalize what it

480
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: might look like to have a woman during wartime presidents.

481
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: Considering what Donald Trump has said about our armed forces

482
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 1: and people who choose to serve, I think this is

483
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: a time where she can say, not only does she

484
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: have an intellectual command on what's happening across the globe

485
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: in US positioning as it relates to that, but she's

486
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 1: also prepared to lead this country to defend itself when

487
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: and wherever necessary. So I hope that Dana asked her,

488
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: you know, how she would be prepared to respond should

489
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: Iran cross a line, and how she might be prepared

490
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: to deal with a nuclear armed Iran, which is a

491
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: huge deal and something that we are facing.

492
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 4: No, you're you're absolutely right on that. In fact, if

493
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 4: y'all remember doing this speech when she got to International

494
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 4: affairs in the might of the US of the baddest

495
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 4: fighting force in the land, right. I almost thought she

496
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,640
Speaker 4: had voice training. If you notice she went from sort

497
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 4: of a you know, what I felt like is going

498
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 4: from a tenor into a baritone, and her voice sort

499
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 4: of got a little bit lower. She was in complete

500
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 4: awareness and I think control of how she was being

501
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 4: curated to the American people very directly.

502
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 5: Right.

503
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 4: You think about curating as a third person delivering something.

504
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 4: I think she had that third person in her head,

505
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 4: as in, what do I need to make sure you

506
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,919
Speaker 4: feel from me in this moment? And what I felt

507
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 4: was strength, determination, and a woman who would be unquivering

508
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 4: and making the decision when the time to make a

509
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 4: decision would come. And what I hope she does in

510
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 4: this interview with both her intent is that they avoid

511
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 4: getting caught in the trappings of these particulars that I

512
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 4: think are going to be thrown out as most Beltway

513
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,360
Speaker 4: journalists are going to do well when back in such

514
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 4: and such and such there was this vote, and then

515
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 4: there was this, and there was that, and unless it's

516
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 4: a really big important sort of back and forth that's

517
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 4: being had, meaning what is being to discussed is consequential.

518
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 4: Where you stand on women's rights, where you stand on

519
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 4: you know, big tax issues. I hope they avoid those

520
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 4: traps and keep this thing, yes specific to where specificity

521
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 4: is need, but that they keep it grand enough that

522
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 4: it doesn't lose the average viewing public's attention. And I

523
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 4: think those particulars have a way of counting a lot

524
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 4: of people out of it. They're like, I don't know

525
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 4: what that bill was, and I don't know what it's about,

526
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 4: and I really can't follow it. If it goes there,

527
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 4: I think it loses public interest, and what we need

528
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 4: here is maximum public viewership.

529
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 6: You know, one thing that I was going to flag

530
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 6: for y'all really quick that I'm concerned about is I

531
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 6: don't want this As much as it is a continuation

532
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 6: of the ticket that folks voted for in the primary,

533
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 6: it's also an opening for a new opportunity and a

534
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 6: new chapter for democracy. So I really am hoping that

535
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,439
Speaker 6: there's not a lot of time spent on well, we

536
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 6: already did that, Well, this administration did that. Well, listen,

537
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 6: you know what I mean, Like, I hope that there's

538
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 6: a way to say, well, we started here, but here's

539
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,719
Speaker 6: where we want to go the nature. Yes, that's what

540
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 6: I'm really really hoping for too.

541
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's sort of you even did a better

542
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 4: job about like voted than what I was trying to

543
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 4: say in the trappings, which is always tying you to

544
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 4: the past. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. If they

545
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,719
Speaker 4: tied Donald Trump and this other dude to the past,

546
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 4: they'd be stuck there. There'd be no time for the future.

547
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 4: But Kamala has not been in the chief executive position

548
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 4: yet as president, and as we can see with her

549
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 4: campaigning for president, you become a different person when you

550
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 4: are the person who is ultimately accountable. She fully possesses that.

551
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,479
Speaker 4: I have felt it all the while since she's been

552
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 4: the nominee, and I just keep that command, keep it big.

553
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 4: And as Angela points out, take us to the future.

554
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 4: Where are we going?

555
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 5: Where we headed?

556
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 1: I want to correct myself on something if we can

557
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,919
Speaker 1: shift topics, because Andrew, when I first when you were

558
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: talking about the Republicans that signed to endorse her again,

559
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 1: I think some of what she says in this interview

560
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: will be directed to them. And this is what I

561
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: was bringing up last week. As the Democratic Party grows,

562
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 1: the coalition and grows the tent, I think we have

563
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 1: to be steadfast and pay attention and make sure that

564
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: the policies continue to serve the people who were always

565
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: with the Democratic Party, largely black and brown folks. So

566
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: I'm paying keen attention to the messages that they deliver.

567
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: But we were talking about the two hundred Republicans who

568
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: endorse Vice President Harris this week, and I said it

569
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: was Bush and John McCain. I'm gonna correct myself. It

570
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: was John McCain and Romney, people who had previously worked

571
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 1: for them in their own campaign staff. Yeah, but it

572
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 1: was like McCain's former chief of staff.

573
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, so that coalition was larger than than previous presidents.

574
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you, I know you wanted to talk about that.

575
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 4: Well just that, I mean, I think this was an

576
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 4: interesting point because you all mentioned it, you know, as

577
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 4: the sides as we were on the dayas doing our show,

578
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 4: like why something, you got room for this Republican but

579
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 4: you don't have room for this message a critical part

580
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 4: of our base. And I completely we were all in

581
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 4: agreement as it relates to to that, and I'm glad

582
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 4: we were able to create create create space for that

583
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 4: message to be delivered. But but the politics of elections

584
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 4: is about the math of elections is about addition, and

585
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 4: I think what they had to do in that convention

586
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 4: and what they've got to do going forward is add

587
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 4: to what they've already got, what's baked in, what is expected,

588
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 4: what we know we can deliver. They've got to add

589
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 4: to it because by ourselves alone, we haven't shown the

590
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 4: history of being able to take us fully all the

591
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 4: way there. Obama required bringing folks into the fold who

592
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 4: were not previously there. What I appreciate about folks coming

593
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 4: into the fold now, and particularly the Republicans who have

594
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,239
Speaker 4: been targeted, is that they're not there because of her

595
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 4: tax policy. They are there because of her position necessarily

596
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 4: on immigration. They're not there because of her previous voting records.

597
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 4: Many of what we heard from many of them on

598
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 4: the stage, and what we have continued to hear from

599
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 4: the Conservatives who are backed he is like, this is

600
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 4: a moment of country over party, that this dude is

601
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 4: so out of whack with what is what is bedrock

602
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 4: American principles. That's what one not abandoning allies, that is

603
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 4: not surrendering our position on the global stage, that is

604
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 4: not decreasing from a global leadership role, but rather stepping

605
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 4: up in a global leadership role. I think those are

606
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 4: the areas in which Republicans are finding common cause with

607
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 4: the Harris Walls ticket. Not on I think the issues

608
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 4: that are going to bring us enjoyment and happiness, and

609
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 4: I think that those bedrock principles. I have not heard

610
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 4: an equivocation from her or Walls on those yet, and

611
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 4: in this interview we will hopefully hear more on the positions.

612
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 4: But if I see that we're starting to surrender where

613
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 4: we stand on the John Lewis voting rack, where we

614
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 4: stand on regulation of many industries in this country that

615
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 4: are underregularly, you know where we are on guns.

616
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 5: If I see.

617
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 4: Surrender in that, then we got issues. And I think

618
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 4: she would have issues across the board from from our

619
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 4: coalition that that put them there, But I haven't seen

620
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 4: that yet. I think the common cause is basically like

621
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 4: this guy is a threat to global order and that's

622
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 4: what's bringing a lot of these Republicans along, Not that

623
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 4: they agree with us on our on our on our

624
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 4: fundamental position democrats.

625
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 6: Can I just say, though, I you know, I was

626
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 6: sitting here thinking while you were talking the injury the thing.

627
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 4: About no I was.

628
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 6: Because I was like you know the thing that that

629
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 6: was that was bothering me last week, and now I

630
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 6: can kind of put words to it about the number

631
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 6: of them who were on the d n C stage

632
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 6: while space wasn't made for issues that a lot of

633
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,719
Speaker 6: us really care about. Is you know what during George

634
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 6: Floyd when all of our white friends were calling us crying,

635
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 6: asking what they could do, what books they could read

636
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 6: if we wanted to take over their Instagram? Remember yeah,

637
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 6: I remember, yeah, So follow me here. Should they be

638
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,239
Speaker 6: talking on the d n C stage or do they

639
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 6: need to go talk to their friends Republicans? Like, but

640
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 6: this is my thing, Like maybe some space should have

641
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 6: been made for never trumpers on the r n C stage.

642
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 6: Maybe some space should.

643
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: Be made for for never trumpers on h on op

644
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: ed pages, editorial pages.

645
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 6: Maybe they should got a ad, Maybe they can contribute

646
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 6: to the Lincoln Project. Maybe they could do something where

647
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 6: they go talk to their friends, Like, I don't need

648
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 6: to know why you're supporting the right thing because it's

649
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 6: the right thing to do. Like to me, this isn't

650
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 6: even about to your point, Andrew, it is not about politics.

651
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 6: It is country over a party. Well, then go talk

652
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 6: to your fellow countrymen. Talk to the National Confederacy of

653
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 6: Republican assemblies. Go talk to the Confederates, please and convince them, please, like,

654
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 6: go and surrogate there god spaces in the Red States

655
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 6: where Tiff said is changing, where it hasn't quite changed yet.

656
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 6: Please go talk to them.

657
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 4: But Angela, I'm the stage that had these were just

658
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 4: democrats watching. This was the stage that you had the

659
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 4: diversity of America trying to see what their choices were.

660
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 4: I would like for some of them they needed they need.

661
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 4: That's like me watching, I could not, honestly, I could

662
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 4: not envision right now where I it a condition under

663
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 4: which I would vote for a Republican president right And

664
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 4: for many of these Republicans, they could not fathom a

665
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 4: condition under which they would.

666
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 6: Be voluused about that. I want them to go grow

667
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 6: that base.

668
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 4: They're doing that, Angela, No, I don't see.

669
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 6: I don't think they're doing that by speaking on the

670
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 6: d NC stage. I think that some of the things

671
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 6: they've done since then are helpful. And I'm just I

672
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 6: would love to see the numbers of folks who were watching, Like,

673
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 6: for example, Fox News ran DNC coverage. Where were those

674
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 6: folks on those Fox News panels as.

675
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 4: They gotta be invited right about.

676
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 6: They can go and be Trojan horses. Go be like

677
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 6: I got something to say about Donald Trump, y'all. I

678
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 6: want to hear and then shift.

679
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 4: I'd agree with you, Angela if the only stage that

680
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 4: they were letting their voices be heard were on ours,

681
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 4: But that isn't true. The op ed that got the

682
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 4: mayor from Arizona on the stage came out before the DNC.

683
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 4: He was letting his voice. He heard with McCain former employees,

684
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 4: and where he lives, where he is mayor, is sitting

685
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 4: elected official. He was doing that where he sits and

686
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 4: talking to his people.

687
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 6: I think there's something about you that enjoys it and

688
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 6: I and I think that's fine. I just wanted to

689
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 6: be effective, Like can you enjoy and be effective? I

690
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 6: just think I need to be Yeah.

691
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 4: I think I want to win. I want a Democrat.

692
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 1: We want to be right back at Katie, which is

693
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,760
Speaker 1: before Andrew, let me just say after week quickly Andrew,

694
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,879
Speaker 1: before you. Yeah, we got to it. But I got

695
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 1: a comment in a question and the question bringing us

696
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 1: bringing up this this National Confederation. I want to hear

697
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: what that's about. And I got something on this, but

698
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: we gotta pay some bills, so we'll be right back

699
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: on the other back.

700
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 7: Hey Native Lympod, my name is Ryan. I'm coming to

701
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 7: you from Idaho. Yes, there are black people in Idaho

702
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 7: doing the Lord's work. Anyway, I have a question, a

703
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 7: couple questions. The first one is probably more for Andrew.

704
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 7: I would love to hear your thoughts on the potential

705
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 7: of Florida becoming a swing state and actually being taken

706
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 7: by the Harris Walls ticket. I'm also Texas I feel

707
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 7: like might be in play as the potential swing state

708
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 7: as well. I'd just love to hear your insights about that,

709
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 7: especially with the momentum that has been happening in both

710
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 7: of those states for the Democratic Party, and what it

711
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 7: would take for the DNC to take in some extra

712
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 7: funding to ensure that that could actually happen. My next

713
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 7: question is I think you may have covered a part

714
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 7: of this, but I would love to hear your thoughts

715
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 7: about what the DNC is doing to prepare for the

716
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 7: onslaught of election deniers that are in place and offices

717
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 7: all over the country. What do you think the DNC

718
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 7: should do to make sure that the election can function

719
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 7: and run as smoothly as possible. Thanks you guys.

720
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 6: Wow, Ryan, thank you so much. Andrew. I do want

721
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 6: to hear your answer about the.

722
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 4: Circle back on it really go yeah, because I want

723
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 4: to hear your thoughts first. I'd love to No, I

724
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 4: want you to talk.

725
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 6: A first about the Florida swing state thing because I

726
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 6: got something to say.

727
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 4: I mean, I have scar tissue on Florida.

728
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:22,399
Speaker 3: Right.

729
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 4: I ran in a state where Republicans were in control

730
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 4: of the elections laws, in every system of governance in

731
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 4: our state for twenty plus years. We got the closest

732
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 4: point three percent different out of eight million voters having

733
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 4: gone out and cast their vote. And you know, whatever happened,

734
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 4: I didn't get sworn in as governor of the state

735
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 4: of Florida, right, So everything notwithstanding that didn't occur. But

736
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 4: I will tell you, you know, we just had elections

737
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 4: this past Tuesday while we were up at the DNC,

738
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 4: and Democrats flipped a number of seats over fifty seats

739
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 4: from local jurisdictions all the way up to state legislative

740
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 4: level seats from our hands to d hands, particularly on

741
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 4: these school boards where they were running these conservative candidates.

742
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,439
Speaker 4: Ron de Santa's Han picked a whole bunch of them,

743
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 4: and many of them went down in defeat at the

744
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 4: hands of Democrats. So I think the signs of pointing

745
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 4: in the right direction. I think we are a state

746
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 4: that is going to require more than election year investments.

747
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 4: We need investments year round, three sixty five, year in

748
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 4: and year out in order to come back. Because guess what, y'all,

749
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 4: if we even turn out the requisite number of votes

750
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 4: that we need, we got to have enough in the

751
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 4: bank to then get over all the disenfranchisement, all the

752
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,399
Speaker 4: invalidating the votes that they're going to do, whatever court

753
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 4: cases they are going to take before the judges that

754
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 4: they have appointed. So the system's got to be almost

755
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:51,240
Speaker 4: bigger than the voters themselves, just because of the system

756
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 4: of disenfranchisement that exists in this state. So I love

757
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 4: to share the optimism of my brother in Idaho, and

758
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 4: I do have optimism, and I'm so thankful to our

759
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,959
Speaker 4: chair here in the state of Florida and Nikki Freed.

760
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 4: But we should compete, absolutely, and if we do the

761
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 4: work right and we put some you know, some goldies

762
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 4: in the pocket, we might pull this thing through. But

763
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 4: anything that gets us closer is a good thing in

764
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 4: this state, and I think the same is probably true

765
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 4: in the state of Texas. But they're coming at us

766
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 4: with everything, and I know you've got the example from

767
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 4: Texas that just makes the point even clear. It's a

768
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 4: repeat of exactly what Ron DeSantis did right here in

769
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 4: the state of Florida, using law enforcement to suppress people's

770
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 4: abilities to the.

771
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 6: Ballot before we get there. As I know Tip has

772
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 6: something there. I want to just say, Andrew, the reason

773
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 6: why I wanted to come to you first, I know

774
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 6: that it's painful, is because there is no better political operative,

775
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 6: former elected official, former candidate for the Harris Walls campaign

776
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 6: to talk to than you. The reason for it is

777
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 6: not only was it within reach, had they counted all

778
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 6: the ballots, it was won, so they got to talk

779
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 6: to you. There's no other person they need to talk

780
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 6: to more. That's all I really want to say about.

781
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 4: Just say they haven't had if they put the muscle

782
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 4: strength that they did in the If they do what

783
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 4: they did, and that second cycle where Chris was at

784
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 4: the top and Deming's ran statewide, we had a twenty

785
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 4: point loss, twenty point difference, And my point is y'all

786
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 4: do what you won't, but we had a record I

787
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 4: think a pathway to victory. That's right, and it's one

788
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,760
Speaker 4: that we have to implement every single year period.

789
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 6: So please make sure. Here's while y'all call Andrew gillim

790
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,719
Speaker 6: because this is really important. Like I'm not saying he

791
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 6: got a layer anybody, but he definitely needs to be

792
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 6: consulting y'all. It is for your own best interest. And

793
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 6: if you want to win the United States of America,

794
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 6: you might want to talk to Florida too. We just

795
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,359
Speaker 6: can't turn into turn our back on any state. TIF

796
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 6: speaking of turning our backs on states or states turning

797
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 6: their backs on us. I feel like you got something

798
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 6: to say about Texas. I want, but I'm gonna talk

799
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 6: about Texas. I'm not talking to me A better transition aout.

800
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: Do you know why I want to hear about dread

801
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: Scott Because did y'all see The Princess Brian when y'all

802
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 1: were young. I used to love that movie, but they

803
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: used to call it was a scary pirate in there,

804
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: and they called them the dread pirate Scott. So every

805
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: time you say that, I think it a dread pirate

806
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: Scott anyway, but I'll talk about Texas. Yes, So here's

807
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: my thing, and I think we're kind of all talking

808
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: about similar things. The go ok is going to cheat

809
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: that the more people who show up and vote, the

810
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 1: less likely they are to win elections. So they have

811
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:42,320
Speaker 1: historically always engaged in voter suppression all across the country.

812
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: It was not just the Bible Belt, it wasn't just

813
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: in the South. Voter suppression has taken place all across

814
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: the country. When they struck down the Voter Rights and

815
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:55,320
Speaker 1: Shelby be Holder, which struck down Section two of the

816
00:40:55,400 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 1: Voting which essentially said that states or states with a

817
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: history of voter suppression had to get federal permission before

818
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: making any changes. That has now gone away and we're

819
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: seeing the impact of that. LULAC, this is the League

820
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 1: of United Latin American Citizens, have filed a lawsuit against

821
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: Ken Paxton. Ken Paxton is the attorney general out of

822
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 1: the state of Texas. He is a Trump minion, a

823
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: Trump appointee, a Trump acolyte. You can look at this

824
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: guy's history. He was one of the outspoken Tea Party

825
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,759
Speaker 1: members in Congress. When he shifted to local to state

826
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 1: politics in Texas. He's an outspoken opponent of any access

827
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: to abortion rights. He's an outspoken opponent to LGBTQ rights.

828
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,320
Speaker 1: His policies are racist and xenophobic and heartless. This man

829
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: has been wreaking havoc on the Latino communities in Texas.

830
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 1: Let me tell you why. An estimated thirty six point

831
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: two million Latinos are eligible to vote this year alone.

832
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: That's up from thirty two million thirty two point three

833
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: million in two twenty twenty. That's a four million increase.

834
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 1: Latino voters have eclipsed Black voters in the largest community

835
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:10,399
Speaker 1: of color eligible to vote, eligible, not registered, eligible to vote.

836
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 1: That's important. Every year about one point four million Latinos

837
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 1: become eligible to vote in the United States. Majority of

838
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: Latino voters voted for the Biden Hairs ticket in twenty twenty.

839
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: That's all according to Pew Research. So the Latino community

840
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: is projected to account for fourteen point seven percent of

841
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: all eligible voters in November. I want you to take

842
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: a listen to eighty seven year old Lydia Martinez, who

843
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 1: lives in San Antonio. She's been a LULAC member for

844
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: over thirty five years and she works to expand voter

845
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 1: registration among seniors and veterans in South Texas. Let me

846
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 1: let you hear from her what Ken Paxton's regime put

847
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,919
Speaker 1: her through in her home. Take a listen, I said,

848
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: let me get dressed.

849
00:42:58,120 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 6: It's just a quad site.

850
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 5: Where were you wearing?

851
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 8: My night gun? And I had all these policemen around me.

852
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 8: It was embarrassing, humiliating. I was so angry, it was horrible.

853
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 1: So after bursting into this woman's home, Ken Paxson's regime,

854
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 1: basically this is voter intimidation. This is a troubling history

855
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 1: of voter suppression that has always existed in the United States,

856
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: but particularly in states like Texas where demographic changes have

857
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:37,880
Speaker 1: shifted the political wins there, and Paxson's office has announced

858
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: that they are launching undercover operations. I want to remind

859
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: everyone Texas is an open cary state. This is, according

860
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: to him, investigations because alleging some organizations are unlawfully registering

861
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: non citizens to vote. Non citizens. Now imagine if you're

862
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: here undocumented, You're trying to say, off everybody's radar, are

863
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 1: you going to risk being deported by showing up to vote?

864
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: The allegation is sol Is Acid nine. So I wanted

865
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:07,399
Speaker 1: to raise this because the only people who win when

866
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 1: we beef are them. Latino voters are facing voter suppression,

867
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: not just in Texas, Andrew and your neck of the woods,

868
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 1: in Florida and everywhere else in the country. Black voters

869
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: in Georgia and everywhere else in the country are facing

870
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 1: these type of voter suppression tactics. We have to be

871
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,279
Speaker 1: aware of them, we have to stay ahead of them.

872
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: And this is how they're trying to cheat before the election.

873
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 1: I can't imagine what they're going to do after the election. Angela.

874
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 1: I think this leads us up to that. I think

875
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,359
Speaker 1: this fight could land in the courts. I don't see

876
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 1: I hope I'm wrong. I hope we win this election

877
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: in a decisive way where it's not even worth going

878
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 1: to the courts. But if it's one on the margins,

879
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: I do not anticipate that we will have a decisive

880
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 1: victory that night. I do not anticipate that Donald Trump

881
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,439
Speaker 1: will concede to a peaceful transition of power. I don't

882
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: anticipate his supporters will accept election results they don't like.

883
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: And we're already seeing some of that now with these

884
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:07,760
Speaker 1: groups like the NFRA.

885
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 6: You know, the thing that I want to say too,

886
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,760
Speaker 6: Tiff is with Ms Martinez. I'm so sorry. My parents

887
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 6: are in their eighties and I just can't imagine my

888
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,440
Speaker 6: parents or their friends doing this kind of work and

889
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:24,280
Speaker 6: being subjected to this type of treatment. This woman talks

890
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,280
Speaker 6: about nine officers showing up at her home with weapons

891
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 6: drawn and questioning her for over three hours. Manuel Medina,

892
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 6: who's also a LULAC member, said his home was raided

893
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,279
Speaker 6: and they broke his door down. And this is for

894
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 6: alleged voter fraud that they continue to make up. We've

895
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 6: talked about it for a long time, voter suppression in

896
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:49,839
Speaker 6: their alleged solutions that they've introduced bills over and over again,

897
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,800
Speaker 6: hundreds of bills over the last several years since President

898
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 6: Obama was elected. It is a solution in search of

899
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 6: a problem. That was the common way that this was

900
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 6: referred to. It's the way we still need to refer

901
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 6: to it if they don't win it talking about suppression

902
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 6: and voter fraud because it just doesn't stick. The election

903
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 6: deniers are the places where they're going to go next.

904
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,280
Speaker 6: And I want to just say, because we're in Texas.

905
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 6: I just looked it up because and this is to

906
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 6: draw the bridge. I think further that tiff was creating

907
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 6: we're beefing with each other. Crystal Mason, who we had

908
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:25,839
Speaker 6: on the stage with us at Essence, is on the

909
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 6: other side of this black woman who was released, she

910
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 6: was incarcerated, formerly incarcerated, comes out votes in an election

911
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 6: with the provisional ballot, as we talked about on the

912
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 6: essence stage. Well, guess what just last week while we

913
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 6: were at the DNC, we know that she was fighting

914
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 6: and facing a five year sentence after casting that provisional ballot,

915
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 6: courts overturned it. Well, this da from Trek County comes

916
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 6: back and says, you know what, I really think the

917
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,319
Speaker 6: court needs to take a second look look at this.

918
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 6: So if they asked the Court of Criminal Appeals to

919
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 6: reverse the decision, the court is now reviewing that case.

920
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 6: That's just six days ago. So Texas is covering the

921
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 6: board on voter fraud. That is the main issue that

922
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 6: we're facing. I think that we have to understand that

923
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,360
Speaker 6: they're willing to stop at no lengths. So this superseding indictment.

924
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 6: The Jack Smith has come out with saying, you know,

925
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 6: what the court rule one way on presidential immunity. Now

926
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 6: we need to take a look at this. He's consulted

927
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 6: with everyone at DOJ, saying this is actually a case.

928
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 6: We're looking at it, and it is because if we

929
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,320
Speaker 6: continue to turn a blind eye, not we, but they

930
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 6: continue to turn a blind eye to January sixth and

931
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 6: all of the election deniers that showed up to the

932
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:38,800
Speaker 6: United States Capital, we're going to be facing a real problem.

933
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 6: I think we need to get some data pulled on

934
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 6: how many people have been elected on these commissions, these boards,

935
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 6: these governor appointed boards, looking at what they're putting in

936
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 6: place to deny the election results. If they're not rules,

937
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 6: if they don't go in there and.

938
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: Their budgets before you go to dress stock, well, we

939
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 1: got to take a break before she goes to dresscott.

940
00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 6: But now that I was, I just.

941
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 4: Wanted to make a comment prior before we end it

942
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 4: on this on what you just discussed. So I guess

943
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 4: we'll do it after we pay it.

944
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 1: Make you point and take us to break.

945
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 4: Not only did Trump commission and panel a commission to

946
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 4: look at voter fraud which came up with absolutely nothing.

947
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 4: Democrat didn't didn't pandel it Trump and paneled it. They

948
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 4: came up with nothing as relates to voter fraud. I

949
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,920
Speaker 4: just got to say, in Texas, Miss Lydia Rodriguez, obvious,

950
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 4: Crystal Masons Martinez. I'm sorry Crystal Mason's example. While they

951
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 4: may be the individuals whose names we call, this is

952
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 4: a shot over the bow to every Latino voter and

953
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,399
Speaker 4: every black voter in the state of Texas to say

954
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 4: that you are not wanted. And when we see a

955
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 4: not wanted sign, when people step and stand in the

956
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 4: doorway of progress, Hello South, when they stay in the

957
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,720
Speaker 4: door where we we go through a window, we figure

958
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 4: a way to go in and have our impact. However,

959
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 4: we have to make it happen. I just want to

960
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:01,320
Speaker 4: make sure that their attacks on us, y'all don't land.

961
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 4: There are going to be these efforts that go after individuals.

962
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 4: They are going to attempt to prosecute us. They are

963
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 4: going to attempt to malign us and call us everything

964
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,359
Speaker 4: but a child of God. And if we let them win,

965
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,240
Speaker 4: winning for them is going to be every individual citizen

966
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 4: who is eligible to vote making the decision that they

967
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 4: are not going to vote because they don't want to

968
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,080
Speaker 4: deal with that drama. I understand you're not wanting to

969
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 4: deal with it, but their strategy isn't to get miss Lydia.

970
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 4: Their strategy is not just to get Crystal by herself.

971
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:35,319
Speaker 4: The strategy is to keep the rest of us from

972
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 4: daring to exercise our rights because of if we do,

973
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,839
Speaker 4: these are the consequences that await us, and that would

974
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:44,960
Speaker 4: be a win for them. We cannot allow them to

975
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:47,960
Speaker 4: have the courts. We will get that back in balance

976
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,879
Speaker 4: at some point, but this that's going down right now,

977
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 4: and it's going to be repeated from here until election

978
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 4: day and beyond. We cannot let them win, y'all, because

979
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 4: their goal is to keep us in time, imitated, silenced

980
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 4: in our corner, and not voting. That's how they win.

981
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 4: So I just wanted to just say that bring this

982
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 4: to the point that it ain't about these individual stories alone, y'all.

983
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 4: This is this is a strategy that they have deployed.

984
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 4: They know it, they invented it. It's worked so many

985
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,839
Speaker 4: times before, but not this day, not today, Not this day.

986
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 1: Somebody called that stupid eight hundred number they had for

987
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:25,880
Speaker 1: voter fraud that Trump enacted, and everybody they started getting

988
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,480
Speaker 1: pranks like everybody started calling and somebody said, Hi, I

989
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 1: just want you to know I voted in off fifty states.

990
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:37,400
Speaker 1: It's so stupid anyway, all right, exactly, yeah, minute.

991
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,399
Speaker 6: Mark, we're gonna hit this brake.

992
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 5: Wellcome, welcome, Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome.

993
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 6: Okay, So well, we've teased it this entire show, and

994
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:55,399
Speaker 6: it was not by design. We kept want to get

995
00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 6: to it. But this feels like the best place near

996
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:00,400
Speaker 6: the end of the show to talk about something that

997
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,279
Speaker 6: has sounded like near the end of time. So the

998
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 6: National Federation of Republican Assemblies, I've been calling them the Confederation.

999
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 6: They call themselves Frederick Douglas Republicans. God only knows why,

1000
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 6: because they're using something from a night or Sorry at

1001
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 6: eighteen fifty seven Supreme Court decision against dred Scott, where

1002
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 6: the Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution didn't apply to

1003
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:27,239
Speaker 6: dred Scott because he wasn't a United States citizen and

1004
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 6: therefore he had to remain enslaved. Well, this National Federation

1005
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 6: of Republican Assemblies has decided that that ruling should apply

1006
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 6: to Kamala Harris and she should not be qualified to

1007
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,520
Speaker 6: run for the United States presidency. Now here's the problem.

1008
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 6: We've talked about the birtherism movement for a long time.

1009
00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 6: We know that Donald Trump was one of the chief

1010
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,840
Speaker 6: architects of it when Barack Obama ran. And here the

1011
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 6: NFRA is coming around to try to run that thing back.

1012
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,200
Speaker 6: And they did just do it to Kamala Harris. They

1013
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 6: also did it to some folks on their side named

1014
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 6: Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswami. So there's that. Now here's

1015
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,360
Speaker 6: the little history lesson I just have for y'all, and

1016
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,799
Speaker 6: I love for y'all to weigh in. There are two

1017
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 6: things that makes this completely irrelevant. One is, and Andrew,

1018
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:16,399
Speaker 6: I knew you were going to get to this too.

1019
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:20,040
Speaker 6: There was the thirteenth, the fourteenth and fifteenth Amendment, all

1020
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 6: ratified between eighteen sixty five and eighteen sixty nine reconstruction.

1021
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 6: How about that that would make it so that what

1022
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:30,920
Speaker 6: they're talking about from this dread Scott decision is no

1023
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,759
Speaker 6: longer applicable. And then there was an eighteen ninety eight

1024
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:38,239
Speaker 6: Supreme Court case US versus won kim Arc, which was

1025
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,360
Speaker 6: about whether or not the Chinese Exclusion Act applied to

1026
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 6: this particular citizen. They made it very clear in that

1027
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 6: court case as well, who what natural born citizen was

1028
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,320
Speaker 6: and the child had to be born here. Kamala Harris's

1029
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 6: parents became United States citizens later. I don't even want

1030
00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 6: to get into this because I'm tired of this. We

1031
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,640
Speaker 6: shouldn't still be talking about it. It is so dumb. But

1032
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,840
Speaker 6: I just want to make sure y'all understand from the

1033
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 6: National Confederacy of the Republicans assemblies y'all on that bush.

1034
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:09,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, but also there's the little thing that happened in

1035
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,640
Speaker 1: eighteen sixty one. I mean this happened. This ruling was

1036
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 1: eighteen fifty seven. This is before the Civil War of

1037
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 1: eighteen sixty one. Yes, So this is literally it's like

1038
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 1: you're going against America. Like it would literally be like

1039
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 1: pushing a policy that that Russia introduced in America. This

1040
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 1: was not an American thing. So every time you see

1041
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 1: people flagging these conservative flags and wearing this, it's like

1042
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: those people fought against what are now the United States.

1043
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: They were looking to secede from the Union. So it's

1044
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:47,880
Speaker 1: bizarre that they're pulling, well, the America that exists today.

1045
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:52,760
Speaker 1: It's very anti American from those But I'm talking logic,

1046
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,160
Speaker 1: so I don't know if that's all.

1047
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 8: All that.

1048
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 6: Logic. What are they talking because.

1049
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 4: I think they're talking strict constructionism, right, think they call

1050
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:08,320
Speaker 4: themselves strict constructionists. They stick to the letter of the Constitution.

1051
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 4: But obviously, if you're going to subscribe to the system

1052
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 4: of governance in the United States of America, decisions that

1053
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:19,280
Speaker 4: are decided by the United States Supreme Court can be

1054
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 4: overturned by future courts. And that's exactly what Angela pointed

1055
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 4: out while dread Scott. We may have been property, you

1056
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,720
Speaker 4: fast forward that thing a little bit. We're no longer property.

1057
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 4: We're human, we're people us unless they maintain that we're

1058
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,959
Speaker 4: still property right, and if that's the case, then you'd

1059
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 4: have to delegitimize a whole set of progress that's taking

1060
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:42,720
Speaker 4: place since that point at the hands of black foes.

1061
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 4: So it's just it doesn't make any sense. I just

1062
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 4: wish that they were in some ways, some ways fidel

1063
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 4: to what it is that they say they stand for.

1064
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 4: If you stand for the Constitution of the United States

1065
00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 4: and the laws therein appertaining to its citizens, then you

1066
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,319
Speaker 4: know that a court, when a court comes down on

1067
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 4: a decision that becomes the order of the day in

1068
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,919
Speaker 4: alignment with the Constitution and the laws up until such

1069
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 4: point as they are changed. Well, they were changed through

1070
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,560
Speaker 4: a war, through a Supreme Court, through a presidency, and

1071
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 4: a whole legacy of progress that's taken place ever since.

1072
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:19,279
Speaker 4: These folks, these honestly, Angela, I think they are trolling us.

1073
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,240
Speaker 4: Excuse my language. I just left the AMI convention. Anyway,

1074
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 4: I think that they are trolling us because if they

1075
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 4: were serious, they would follow a lawsuit. And I need

1076
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 4: to be careful what I'm asking for, as you have

1077
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 4: already won. The Supreme Court is backwards to But I

1078
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,120
Speaker 4: cannot imagine just as I couldn't imagine us declaring a

1079
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,319
Speaker 4: king in twenty twenty four, I couldn't imagine a real

1080
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 4: legitimate court saying, oh, Dred Scott still snids legitimate.

1081
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 6: And that's the thing. I think that what the reason

1082
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 6: why I wanted to talk about this is not to

1083
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:53,080
Speaker 6: give it teeth, But just like we talked about the

1084
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:57,319
Speaker 6: voter fraud, the alleged voter fraud attacks, the raids, these

1085
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,320
Speaker 6: are things that I never thought we would see in

1086
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 6: our lifetime, y'all. These are the things that our grandparents witness,

1087
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:06,840
Speaker 6: our parents on the tailent witness. Why are we witnessing

1088
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 6: it again? I'm bringing this this It's not a case,

1089
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 6: it's a resolution they introduced, but I'm bringing it up

1090
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,759
Speaker 6: as a flag because they could try to take this

1091
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 6: to the court and I don't trust the Supreme Court

1092
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:18,720
Speaker 6: of the United States.

1093
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 1: And that sounds crazy, but I don't trust it. And

1094
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:23,799
Speaker 1: so Andrew was like, why don't they just too?

1095
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:24,920
Speaker 6: I'm like, why don't we not?

1096
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: And it doesn't sound crazy that you don't trust them

1097
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,879
Speaker 1: to me? Can I ask you guys a question before

1098
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,359
Speaker 1: we get to tult action. I just want to hear

1099
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 1: from y' all on this before we gotta go. Do

1100
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:40,080
Speaker 1: we think a debate between Kamala Harris, Vice President Kamala

1101
00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:41,720
Speaker 1: Harris and Donald Trump is going to happen?

1102
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 6: Yes?

1103
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:44,440
Speaker 1: You say yes?

1104
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 6: Yes?

1105
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 4: Andrew?

1106
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 1: What you say.

1107
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:52,160
Speaker 4: Was he frozen if his team decides his only Yeah?

1108
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:52,239
Speaker 6: No.

1109
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 4: I was thinking about it because I want to say no,

1110
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 4: because I think this guy ultimately is intimidated by her

1111
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,680
Speaker 4: the fact that she has stepped on the other side

1112
00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 4: of this mute button.

1113
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:01,759
Speaker 3: Right.

1114
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 4: If y'all remember it was Trump's team that did not

1115
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 4: want those Mike Madet when he was dividing Baden by Biden.

1116
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:11,760
Speaker 4: Biden stood firm that he wanted his team did because

1117
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,600
Speaker 4: he did not want to have what happened with with

1118
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 4: UH with Clinton, where he's over talking her and over speaking.

1119
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 4: So it was a it was a way to keep

1120
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 4: him safe. Well, guess what Comlin got them safety concerns.

1121
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 4: She feels like if if, if you, if you feel

1122
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 4: in froggy, jump and see what's on the other side

1123
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 4: of the landing, because she trusts her instincts and she

1124
00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 4: trusts her ability to handle him. I trust her ability

1125
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 4: to fully handle that dude body him. But but but

1126
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 4: his team is now saying, okay, mute button must stay

1127
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 4: in place because they don't trust that their candidate is

1128
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 4: safe in her hands.

1129
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 5: And they're right to.

1130
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 6: Conclude that that looks like lily pad. So if you're

1131
00:57:52,680 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 6: feel in frogly feeling frog, if you're feeling frog and

1132
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:01,800
Speaker 6: leaf on this lily.

1133
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 1: We should have been wearing those T shirts at the DNC.

1134
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I feel Angela will body them body

1135
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,000
Speaker 4: him too, So it doesn't you know either way either way,

1136
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 4: they don't trust it. So my instincts say he doesn't

1137
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 4: want a condition under which he's he is handled by her. Yeah,

1138
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 4: and I don't understand. I don't really believe that that

1139
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 4: she would pull out of a debate.

1140
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: But if anybody back out, he's going to back out.

1141
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:26,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1142
00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:28,560
Speaker 4: So so, so can we talk about this?

1143
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 1: I want to get into it. I'm not doing this

1144
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 1: caricature that Angela wants to do. But we got a plan.

1145
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 6: Oh my god, that was never the plan.

1146

Speaker 1: Man, We got a plan now though, right, James, g

00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 1: as I would like them to. I say he's gonna

Speaker 1: find some reason to pull out. I hope I'm wrong.

1161
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 6: If there how much money are we betting on this?

1162

01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:47,960
Speaker 1: the ready and all the things they've done. So I

1241
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: haven't met Bishop McAllister, but I would like to.

1242
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:52,200

1246
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:01,760
Speaker 6: y'all need listened as mini pod because I guess it's

1247
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:04,280
Speaker 6: some stuff we need to get on going. I also

1248
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:09,080

Speaker 6: we all put in to make sure that happened. Y'all

1252
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 6: don't understand we had never live streamed before as our podcast,

1253
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 6: and we had never done back to back episodes on

1254
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:32,560
Speaker 6: a daily basis and during one of the most historic

1255
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,320
Speaker 6: conventions ever, so it was it was a major undertaking.

1256
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:42,600
Speaker 6: And I just again want to shout out our team, Lauren, Nick, Lolo, Chloe,

1266
01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:14,080
Speaker 6: our accounts on Instagram, on Twitter, on Facebook, We're at

1267
01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,120
Speaker 6: Native lamppod. Same thing for the.

1268
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 4: Hey Angela, Angela RJ told me that in the chats

1269
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:22,360
Speaker 4: during the live is where it was at. She's like

1270
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:27,680
Speaker 4: Watt lives, I would like to.

1271
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:30,880
Speaker 1: See the comments. All right, I'll be always since I

1272
01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,080
Speaker 1: know we want to have mini pod. So this is

1273
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:35,800
Speaker 1: a PSA. It's a CTA, but it's really a PSA,

1274
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:40,120
Speaker 1: a public safety announcement announcement. I want to say, we

1275
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:43,320
Speaker 1: show up on this podcast and we give it to

1276
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:46,080
Speaker 1: you straight, no chaser, None of us are edited. This

1277
01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:48,040
Speaker 1: is live to take. We don't go back and listen

1278
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:49,560
Speaker 1: and say, oh, can you take out this part? Like

1279
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:51,600
Speaker 1: what you hear is what you get. These are conversations

1280
01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 1: we'd be having whether the cameras are rolling or not.

1281
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,360
Speaker 1: And we love you guys for taking an interest in

1282
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 1: what we do and showing up. The PSA is this.

1283
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 1: If you see us out publicly, we make a habit

1284
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,960
Speaker 1: of this is your podcast too. If you disagree with

1285
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,160
Speaker 1: something we say, put it on video, drop us a link.

1286
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 1: If you see us out publicly, I never mind saying hello,

1287
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:18,960
Speaker 1: chatting with people, very social people, very Oh that's fine.

1288
01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:24,880
Speaker 1: For your safety. It is not the time to confront

1289
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 1: any of us in a negative way for your safety

1290
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,800
Speaker 1: and for our safety, because if you're crazy enough to

1291
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 1: try to aggressively confront one, if we're together, you didn't

1292
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 1: just confront me, You now confronted Andrew and Angela and

1293
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 1: anyone else around us. And if I'm by myself, I

1294
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 1: have to assume if you're getting aggressive with me. I

1295
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:50,480
Speaker 1: fear for my life and I'm gonna proceed accordingly. So

1296
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:56,040
Speaker 1: my PSA is, please keep it respectful, Please keep tuning in.

1297
01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:59,000
Speaker 1: We all ride for the people, ride for the community.

1298
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 1: We love y'all. We welcome y'all home every week. We

1299
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:05,400
Speaker 1: say that with intention, and we don't. We're not trying

1300
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 1: to tell you what to think, so we invite a

1301
01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:12,800
Speaker 1: healthy exchange of ideas and ideology and a collegial discourse.

1302
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 1: So if you want to hear the backstory to this,

1303
01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:19,720
