The podcast space UM is a 34 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: huge opportunity for us to be able to share or 35 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,279 Speaker 1: at least me to be able to share my voice unfiltered, 36 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 1: unedited UM and really have an opportunity to be able 37 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: to share it outside of our circles on social media. 38 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: So thank you to those who have told me that 39 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 1: you've heard the radio advertisement. Just so in case you 40 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: guys are not familiar anywhere in your city that you 41 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: get the breakfast club I am with my heart, so 42 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: that's why you have heard those uh my commercials. Some 43 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: of you have said you've heard it in l A, 44 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: in Detroit, in Vegas. So thank you for letting me 45 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: know that you've heard the commercial, because it's always good 46 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: to know that marketing is doing exactly what they said 47 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: that they're doing, which is continuing to market my show. 48 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: So I am very excited about a new year. There 49 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: are a lot of things, um that I have in store, 50 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: but I just wanted to do this quick podcast, uh 51 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: to basically say what you will not hear on any 52 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: of the mainstream networks today because again, a lot of 53 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: the networks that claimed to be a nonpartisan, uh, they 54 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: obviously root for one team or the other. MSNBC is 55 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: obviously liberal, Fox is obviously conservative, and CNN depending on 56 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: who you ask sometimes, uh, the Democrats don't like what 57 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: people say on CNN and Republicans don't either. So just 58 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: kind of depends on who you ask the question and 59 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: who was actually on the TV screen on if you 60 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: believe that CNN can be neutral or not. So I 61 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: wanted to do um a quick podcast to let you 62 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: know what you are watching, what you are witnessing right 63 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: now as they decide who was going to be the 64 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. I want you to pay attention 65 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: to what you are seeing right now as you are 66 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: witnessing or maybe you have not seen what has been 67 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: going on today with the Republican Party, the Democrat Party 68 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: the House. The Congress is trying to decide who will 69 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: lead the Speaker of the House. But those of you 70 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: that know that I love to do analogies, I'm gonna 71 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: throw in some hood analogies. Charlemagne called me the hood 72 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: whisper for a reason. So basically, they're trying to decide 73 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: who's gonna be the o g the top dog of 74 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: the House now right now, the last time they voted 75 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: more than one time, and let me just kind of explain. 76 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: Bear with me. I won't be long winded on explaining, 77 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: but I do want you to understand what that is, 78 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: because a lot of you may not even understand what 79 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: that is. But basically, you have a Some people ask him, 80 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: I thought how King Jeffreys was in charge. He's in 81 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: charge of the Democrat Party, so he is. He took 82 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: uh Nancy Pelosi's place of being in charge of the 83 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: Democrat Party in the House. But the Speaker of the 84 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: House is another position, and usually it goes to whatever 85 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: party is in charge for that Congress. When I say 86 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: that Congress, that means that two years. So for the 87 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: next two years, you get to the side who was 88 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: going to be in charge, and typically the reason why 89 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi was obviously in charge of the Democrat Party 90 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: but also the Speaker of the House. It doesn't necessarily 91 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 1: mean that that person has to be the same person 92 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: for both of those roles, but that is typically how 93 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: it works out. So right now, the Republican Party, as 94 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: you know or maybe you don't, the Republican Party is 95 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: in control of the House. They did win the House, 96 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: UH in the last mid terms. I know Democrats want 97 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: to make you believe differently, but they actually did win. 98 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: And they can talk about how many uh touchdown somebody 99 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: got and how many plays and how many points. At 100 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: the end of the day, there's only one winner of 101 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: the super Bowl, even if it was a close win, 102 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: and Republicans one. Democrats maintain their power in the Senate. 103 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: They are in control of the Senate, but they are 104 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: not in control of Congress. Therefore, Republicans are in control, 105 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: meaning they have enough votes in order to elect the 106 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:23,119 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. The Speaker of the House of Representatives, 107 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: you need two and twenty two votes uh in order 108 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: to get over the threshold. I believe it's two. I'm 109 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: not looking at my notes directly in front of me, Um, 110 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: that you need in order to uh vote in that 111 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: person as the Speaker of the House of Representatives. What happened? 112 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: And I did a podcast a little while ago on this, 113 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: if you follow my work, I did a podcast on 114 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: this about how Republicans progressives got played and got told 115 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: to sit down. So if you go back and listen 116 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: to progressives got played, I broke down to you to eighteen. Okay, 117 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: thank you so much in Stagram family. I don't know 118 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: where I was getting to uh to two in my mind. Um, 119 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: thank you so much, Instagram family. So I did a 120 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: um a podcast about this about how progressives got played, 121 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: and I was talking about when they were when they 122 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: were talking about McCarthy being challenged by the Republican Party, 123 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: meaning saying, hey, we're just we're not gonna just give 124 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: you a Speaker of the House. We have some concessions, 125 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: and I'm paraphrasing, we have some concessions, uh that we 126 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: want me. And when I say we, I'm talking about 127 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: a very small minority group right now at the last vote, 128 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: at the last vote, Uh, it is uh twenty folks 129 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: who have said no, we're gonna push the line, hold 130 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,239 Speaker 1: the line. They literally used the word hold the line. 131 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: How many of you have ever heard me talk about 132 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: pushing the line. That's the reason why I want to 133 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: do this podcast so you could see what pushing the 134 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: line looks like. Even if you do not like the 135 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: Republican Party. I get that. I need you to go 136 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: outside of that for a second, and I want you 137 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: to imagine what it would be like if somebody push 138 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: the line for the issues that we say are important 139 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: to us.

You ain't never needed a majority 287 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: to stand in front of the bulldozer. You ain't never 288 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: needed a majority to stand on the train tracks. You 289 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: ain't never needed a majority to be in Gideon's army. 290 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 1: You ain't never needed a majority to be Moses. You 291 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: never needed a majority any time in history to be David. 292 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 1: You've never needed a majority in order to push the line. 293 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 1: You have just been around people who are not lying pushes. 294 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: So your mindset already goes with a defeated spirit because 295 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: you don't see the God in you. You don't see 296 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: the stripth in you. You don't see the power in you. 297 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: You don't see that only all it take is one 298 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 1: person to be able to push the line. You've been 299 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: brownbeating so much that it doesn't is you do only 300 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: it doesn't even fathom to you that if a bulldozer 301 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: was coming towards the house to demolish the house, and 302 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: all it takes one person to stand in front of 303 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: the house and say, if you are going to tear 304 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: down this house, you are going to have to kill 305 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: me in it. Because you have not seen that type 306 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: of leadership, so you don't think it's real. You don't 307 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: think it's possible. How many of you over the holiday 308 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: I watched the movie Dead Cation and I'm gonna close 309 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: because this will not be along podcast.

And there was one part in 336 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: the movie when he went to take down the bridge 337 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: and he went against what his lieutenant told him to do. 338 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: And he said, and I'm paraphrasing, go back and watch 339 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: the movie. But they said, don't get out of line, 340 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: don't get out of line, stay here with us. And 341 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: he said, I know that I can do it. And 342 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: he went and he knocked the bridge down. See some 343 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: of you ain't never you ain't never win a knock 344 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: the bridge down. Maybe maybe it's just me. Maybe it's 345 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: just me. Maybe maybe I'm the only one in the building. 346 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm the only one in the building of devotion 347 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: is the name of my apologies, devotion, my apologies devotion. 348 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: I don't know why I think about dedication. Maybe I'm 349 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: the only one in the building that was ever told 350 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: you couldn't do it. Maybe I'm the only one that 351 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: when I went to the Air Force and I decided 352 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: to be a security police officer, and even my recruiter said, 353 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: you can't do it. Why don't you go just do administration. 354 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm the only one that said it ain't no 355 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: way you're gonna get that bearret shut out to Ricky 356 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: who told me I wasn't gonna get my beret. Because 357 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: see Ricky didn't get his beret. And he was a 358 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: man and bigger than me and man more muscle than me, 359 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: and he didn't get his beret, so he figured since 360 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: he couldn't get his beret, they was gonna send me home. Well, 361 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: the entire time that I was going through training, I 362 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: kept on thinking about Ricky. I had to prove them wrong, 363 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: because see, he told me that I wasn't gonna be 364 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: able to do it, So I had to prove them wrong. 365 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: It was what I used in my spirit to make 366 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: sure that I had enough push ups, that I ran 367 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: long enough, that I rucksacked long enough that I was 368 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 1: able to fire my weapon, that I hit the target, 369 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,959 Speaker 1: that I did everything I held in every tier, I 370 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: held in every fear, I held in every doubt because 371 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: I refused to go home without my barret. So it's 372 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: something about that movie that just triggers me and gets 373 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: all up in my spirit. He went against Jonathan Major's 374 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: was the character's name was actually a real life character. 375 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: He went against what his lieutenant told him to do, 376 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: and he said, I'm going to take down that bridge. 377 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: And there was a scene in the movie where he said, 378 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 1: if I listen, the lieutenant told him, if you listen, 379 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: to what I tell you, you won't get killed. He said, 380 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: if I listen. If I if I always listen to 381 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: what somebody told me, I wouldn't be here today. Maybe 382 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 1: you've always maybe it's just me. Maybe you've always had 383 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: people telling you you could do it, And that's probably 384 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 1: why you're not aligning with you, because you're waiting on 385 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 1: somebody to tell you something. See, I'm always waiting to 386 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,239 Speaker 1: go to the the opposite direction. If you tell me I 387 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: can't do it, I believe I can do it. If 388 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: I do it. If you say, oh no, Tesla, don't 389 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 1: do that, I'm I'm really gonna look into that. If 390 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: you say don't go around the corner, oh no, let 391 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: me go see around that corner for myself. So that's 392 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: maybe why, maybe that's why we don't align. Maybe that's 393 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: why you don't see it. He said. Everything that I 394 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: did when it was time for the swimming contest, they 395 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: put bricks to weigh me down. He said, I almost drowned. 396 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: So if I listened to what people told me what 397 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 1: I could not do, I would not be here today. 398 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: So when people try to push their logic on you, 399 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: they're what you could not do, what they could not 400 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: do on. You don't allow that to get in your 401 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: spirit and become complacent, because there were some people that 402 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: once went to Congress they said they were gonna push 403 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: the line, and it ain't been a good four years 404 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: and they've already folded. It was some people that went 405 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 1: to Congress they said, oh, no, send me, because I'm 406 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: gonna bring it down. And now they've already folded. And 407 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: guess what they took with him, your last two dollars. 408 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: So if you can be mature enough to watch what 409 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: you see happening, I'm looking right now as we talk. MSNBC. 410 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: The headline says, McCarthy humiligated in three losses on the 411 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: first day of g P O g g OP Congress. 412 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: Guess what I see? Gangsters once again tell you to 413 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: get out and lay down, and they know they don't 414 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: have a chance in hell and winning. But what they're 415 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: doing is they're showing their base that we are willing 416 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 1: to stand on the train track if necessary, to make 417 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: sure that our voices are heard. And that's what I 418 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: need each and every last one of you to to 419 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 1: look for in leadership. That's what I need you to 420 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: be if you're going in leadership I need you to 421 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: not be focused on especially Georgia. Oh ain't no point. 422 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: Oh South Carolina, Oh ain't no point. Jim Clappern got 423 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: it all in control. I need you to be some 424 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: sergeant Majors in the building. I need you to say 425 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: it's all right, it's just one of me. I think 426 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna try everything I can to be that one 427 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: to tell that bridge down. I'm looking for just that one. 428 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: I'm looking for just just one Jonathan Major's. I don't 429 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: need a whole bunch of them, just one Jonathan Major's. 430 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: That said, I think I'm gonna go in another direction. 431 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: I think when y'all flying this way, I'm gonna go 432 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: this way. I think I got the skills in order 433 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: to be able to tell that bridge down. And if 434 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't tell that bridge down, then I'm damn show 435 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: gonna make a din in it. I just need to 436 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: know if I got a Jonathan Major's in the building 437 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,719 Speaker 1: or is it just me and I just Jonathan Majors 438 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: by myself.

I believe that 442 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: all it takes is just one because if I can 443 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: knock down that bridge, then I'm damn so don't put 444 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: a dent on it.

I don't know, 473 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: but if, but if you, if you like me, I'm 474 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: getting tired of behind the scenes. There was a poem 475 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: that I did in two thousand fourteen called Blackout two 476 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: thousand sixteen, and I said, you say you do it 477 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: behind the scenes, but I don't see you may can 478 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: know noise on the national scene.

My APOLOGIESUS is not our g 485 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: my apologies. That's the principalities. I do have to cut this, 486 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: but thank you for listening. Please rewind this podcast. The 487 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: moral to the story is pushing the line is possible 488 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: politics until something happens. And I hope that you joined 489 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,479 Speaker 1: me and two thousand twenty three as we reset the 490 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: table for two thousand twenty four. And no, it doesn't 491 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: mean that we'll be able to elect the president of 492 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: our choice and get get a million people elected to politics. 493 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: That ain't what it. What it means is we're gonna 494 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: put a dent in this ship, put a five. If 495 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: you are with me, what let's just put a little 496 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: dent in it. Because I believe that what I was 497 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: a license insurance adjuster and agent for guite Code, and 498 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: I know that you can drive a car that is 499 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: a total loss. You can drive a car that is 500 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: a total loss, meaning you can have enough dents in 501 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: a car that it no longer has value and it 502 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: still can be drivable. So yes, I don't expect the 503 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,239 Speaker 1: term Congress change it overnight. I'm expect to change sent 504 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: it overnight. I don't expect to change local overnight. What 505 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: I can tell you is we can put a dent 506 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: in it.
