An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador 3 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just 5 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President 6 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border 8 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over 9 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you 10 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 1: are here illegally, your next you will be fined nearly 11 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You will 12 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: never return. But if you register using our CBP home 13 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally. 14 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws, 15 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: border and families will be protected. 16 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security. 17 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 3: My question is this idea of like the Boss Chick 18 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: and you know, independent black women, and has. 19 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 4: That has it served us? Is that the question out? 20 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 3: Or is it is it destroying the black family ecosystem. 21 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 4: I think you have to say on some level it's 22 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 4: destructive to a traditional black uh family ecosystem. I think 23 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 4: just the facts bear that out right. So that's not feelings, 24 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 4: that's not subjective, that's just the reality is. As you 25 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 4: just pointed out, Uh, there is a huge numbers gap 26 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 4: between Black women that are buying homes at almost twice 27 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 4: the rate of single Black men that are graduating from 28 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 4: undergrad and professional schools at sometimes six seven times the 29 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 4: rate of our brothers. And by the way, if you 30 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 4: ask most Black women, that's not something that we enjoy 31 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 4: or appreciate, Like, it's not a situation. And I think 32 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 4: that's another misconstruction and a and a miss assumption that 33 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 4: black women are out here strategically competing against black men. No, sir, 34 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 4: we most of us want to be in relationship with 35 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 4: black men, and so it's in our interests, even selfishly, 36 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 4: so not necessarily from this altruistic place of oh, we 37 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 4: just want to see our brothers succeed. There's that for sure, 38 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 4: but there's a self interested element of that right that says, 39 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 4: if I'm a black woman and I want to have 40 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 4: black children with a black man and live in a 41 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 4: house with a black husband, and do and buy properties 42 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 4: and travel the world and enjoy my life alongside a 43 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 4: black man. I would like him to be similarly positioned 44 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 4: to me socioeconomically, so that that partnership feels comfortable and 45 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 4: feels safe from a fiscal place and maybe some other 46 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 4: places too. So let me just spend a little time 47 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 4: on that, because I was talking to a very good 48 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 4: girlfriend of mine, who's one of your typical clients, as 49 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 4: you describe, for early forties, making, you know, five hundred 50 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 4: k plus single to death. And there's a lot of 51 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 4: thought that women like her myself even of course, are materialistic. 52 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 4: And that's why when we say we are attracted to 53 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 4: this type of man, or we prefer to date this 54 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 4: kind of man that has similarly Notice not hardly any 55 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 4: of us are saying we need a man to make 56 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 4: more than us, or we need a man to take 57 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 4: care of us, or we need a man to pay 58 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 4: our bills. No, no, really, truly, hand to God, we 59 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 4: really just really would love to be partner with someone 60 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: who is similarly positioned. 61 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 3: Well, let me interject one thing, because this this is 62 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 3: going to be controversial, but this is this is I 63 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 3: think important. So The problem with this is that, all right, 64 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 3: so a thirty five year old single woman who's making 65 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 3: four hundred thousand dollars a year, right, and that they're 66 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: looking for that equal counterpart, and that that makes sense, right, 67 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: But it's like, the difficult part about that is that 68 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 3: the equally yoked man who's thirty five that's making five 69 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars, he's probably already in relationship's probably married. 70 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 3: The ones the ones that's not married, they're not necessarily 71 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 3: looking for somebody that's thirty five the twenty eight year old. 72 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 3: So now it's like, okay, you're either forced with a 73 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 3: decision to just remain single or look down. Now there 74 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 3: is the truck drive. Now is the ups man who's 75 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 3: a great man, but who's making eighty thousand dollars a year, right, 76 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 3: Because now it's equal, it's hard to find that equal counterpart. Men. 77 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 3: You could be fifty years old and it's not The 78 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 3: age doesn't really matter. 79 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 4: And I've said this and this is controversial, right, that 80 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: because of the way society values gender roles, right, So 81 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 4: the way in which we find a woman attractive, what 82 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 4: are we really talking about under that? And it doesn't 83 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 4: hurt my feelings. Let's just say it people across the 84 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 4: spectrum culturally, but we're talking about black people. So let's 85 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 4: let's center that Black women are assessed around our beauty, 86 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 4: our esthetic, physical beauty, and there's biological reasons for that, 87 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 4: and our fertility and our youth. Those are the main 88 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 4: things that a man is going to be assessing when 89 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 4: deciding if you are for him. And then it's going 90 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 4: to be the quote soft skills. It's gonna be do 91 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 4: you make him feel loved, you know, cater to loyal, 92 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 4: Are you relatively non confrontational, not too much pushback or 93 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 4: challenges around ideas and decisions, And those are the things 94 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 4: that would really make you just highly desirable in the 95 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 4: dating market as a woman. Now let's go to men. 96 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 4: What makes a man highly desirable in a dating market. 97 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: It is going to be financials. It's going to be 98 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 4: your ability to provide financially and fiscally. It's also going 99 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 4: to be your physical is kind of your stature, Like 100 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 4: there's a reason why you know this six sixty sixth thing. 101 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 4: I think that's really corny, but whatever, But there's a 102 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 4: reason why a lot of women will swipe right on 103 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 4: men that are at least five ten six feet. You know, 104 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 4: they want to feel there's some physical dominance coming from 105 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 4: a man. Then you've got, you know, just kind of age. 106 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 4: There's a reason why older men like you just said, 107 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 4: bro like fifty plus, that's not a deterrent for most 108 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 4: women because that presumes more stability. That presumes you've lived 109 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 4: life longer, and you can probably protect and know and 110 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 4: help and navigate these spaces better and more effectively than 111 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 4: I can in my youth. So you're right. Kind of 112 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 4: the way in which we assess and evaluate value as 113 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 4: men versus women create and inherent conflict. I will add 114 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 4: one little caveat though, to the scenario you laid out 115 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 4: where you've got these thirty four. 116 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 5: This episode is brought to you by P and C Bank. 117 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 5: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring, 118 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 5: and sure they definitely can be, but understanding a professionals 119 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 5: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little, 120 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,559 Speaker 5: day after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank. 121 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,799 Speaker 5: It might seem boring to safe plan and make calculated 122 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 5: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is 123 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 5: what helps you live or more happily fulfilled. Life, p 124 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 5: and C Bank Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly 125 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 5: Boring since eighteen sixty five is a service mark of 126 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 5: the PNC Financial Service Group, Inc.

Women who've got these big incomes and 165 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 4: degrees and all this stuff, but we're not necessarily as 166 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 4: desirable to the men that are our age and financial equal. 167 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 4: Which is why personally I enjoy dating older men because 168 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 4: at forty, if I'm dating a man who's fifty six, 169 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 4: there's more likelihood that he will appreciate some aspect of 170 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 4: youth around me.

I'm not just talking and writing about it, guys. 173 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 4: I'm out here living this, and I have been for 174 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 4: the last five or so fourish years since ended my engagement. 175 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 4: I do find that that that can be a sweet 176 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 4: spot for some women that are in that like thirty 177 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 4: eight to forty five year old range, you know, dating 178 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 4: older men can kind of give you back some of 179 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 4: that advantage you. 180 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 5: When I'm listening to it, I'm trying to figure out 181 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 5: there's plenty of women who are in that scenario right 182 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 5: now when we're talking about socio economic factors. Is that 183 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 5: the compromise, or even I only want to use the 184 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 5: word of compromise, is that I think you better think 185 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 5: about it. 186 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 4: I think you damn sure, because I got girlfriends that 187 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 4: and sorority sisters that don't like to date those men. 188 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 4: There is exactly what you said. They want their forty 189 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 4: they want a date a forty year old they want 190 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 4: they don't have kids. They don't want him to have kids. Right. 191 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 4: So one of the reasons I'm sure we'll get into this. 192 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 4: You guys know, I've been very public that I am 193 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 4: deep into my single motherhood by choice journey. I'm having 194 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 4: my child as we speak, like that process is well underway. 195 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 4: And one of the reasons I'm doing that is because 196 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 4: I date older men. And you know what older what 197 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 4: the situation of older men are. They've had their child, 198 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 4: their children are grown, their children might even be in 199 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 4: college or beyond. So a fifty six year old man, 200 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 4: even a fifty eight year old man, is not inclined 201 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 4: to want to change Pampers and warm bottles. Okay, he's 202 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: still right. So I'm not gonna say because I was 203 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 4: doing that, Like before I decided to do this journey, 204 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 4: I was like thirty seven, thirty eight, and I was 205 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 4: dating these like fifty two fifty three year old guys, 206 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 4: a lot of them in finance, a lot of them, 207 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 4: you know, having businesses, and they were like, love you, 208 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 4: definitely would be with you, would even marry you, but baby, 209 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 4: oh no, no no. So I kept running into that 210 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 4: like there were like three guys in a row if 211 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 4: that was the scenario. So it's like, now I got 212 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 4: a decision to make. How bad do I want to 213 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 4: be a mother? I had to assess that because if 214 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 4: that's kind of optional, then what he's proposing is a 215 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 4: good scenario. You know, let's go live life and I 216 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 4: still boss out and be this great career woman and 217 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 4: we travel and go to the Saint Bart's and say 218 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 4: tape and live a great life. But if I really 219 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 4: want to be mother, and I do, I had to 220 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 4: make a different decision, which is, let me go have 221 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 4: my child and then we can come. We could have 222 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 4: more of a companion relationship with these older guys that 223 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 4: have already raised their children and lived their lives. And 224 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 4: that's probably the path I'm on. But yes, to the 225 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 4: front end of your question, what do we do as 226 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 4: relative middle aged Let's say that, let's just own it, right, 227 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 4: middle aged black women who are highly educated with these 228 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 4: high incomes based on societal averages, we've essentially priced ourselves 229 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 4: out of the market. And when I say, I mean 230 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 4: in a lot of ways, we priced ourselves out of 231 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 4: the market in terms of our incomes many of the time, 232 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 4: because think about it, like, let's just talk. You guys 233 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 4: are numbers guys for real, Right, When you're talking about 234 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 4: making five to seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars a 235 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 4: year in some cities, you're talking about being in the 236 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 4: one to two percent of income earners of the whole 237 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 4: society as period, not just as black women, like period. 238 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 4: Like when you make seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars 239 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 4: a year or more in New York City, you're earning 240 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 4: in the top one percent of New York City even 241 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 4: compared to white men, compared to black men, compared to anybody. 242 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 4: So now that's a small pool anyway. And now you're 243 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 4: telling me that I want somebody that's earning in the 244 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 4: top one percent alongside me, and I want him to, 245 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 4: you know, potentially not have children and want to have 246 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 4: more children than it's too much. So, yes, we do 247 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 4: have to start making strategic whether you want to call 248 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 4: it compromises or settling or mister good enough or I 249 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 4: don't give a dad what you call it, but we 250 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 4: have to start deciding what's important. So for me, being 251 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 4: a mother is important for me, maintaining a high income 252 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 4: so that I can maintain autonomy and the ability to 253 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 4: say no to any shit I don't want to tolerate. 254 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 4: Is it just I don't give a damn who feel 255 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 4: away about it? It's important to me. Money is power, 256 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 4: no matter who has it. You better know that. Okay. 257 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 4: How many women right now or men are in domestically 258 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 4: violent situations because they don't have the capacity financially to 259 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 4: leave and go anywhere else. They you know, would love 260 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 4: to leave an unfulfilling relationship because I love how people 261 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 4: always act like people that you know are in that 262 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 4: middle to low income range. They're all good people. They 263 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 4: all love their mamas, and they're all perfect partners. Right, 264 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 4: get the fuck out of here. No unhappy, right, Let's 265 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 4: stop that Tyler Perry bullshit. What the reality is a 266 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 4: lot of them are unhappy in those relationships, just stuck together. 267 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 2: We just woke about this. 268 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 4: Literally, they fiscally. Look at these interest rates, Look at 269 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 4: these rental rates New York. Because I was paying six 270 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 4: thousand dollars a month rent for a one bedroom apartment. 271 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 4: Get the hell out of here, So let me go 272 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 4: ahead and get this mortgage situation going. So you know, 273 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 4: those are some of the things. So you can't have 274 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 4: it all. I don't care who you are, man or woman, 275 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 4: but you can have a lot of what you want 276 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 4: if you're willing to tell the truth about what that 277 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 4: is and what that looks like. 278 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child 279 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from El Salvador 280 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with 281 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan.
