WEBVTT - The Sane Seventy Percent 0:00:11.760 --> 0:00:14.600 Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with 0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:19.239 Meet your Girl Danielle Moody. Recording from Podstream Studios in 0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:24.160 Times Square. Actually, folks, it has been a busy as 0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.880 fuck week so far, and as you are listening to this, 0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:34.320 yesterday the president, former president twice in peach president of 0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:39.519 the United States, Donald Trump was arraigned on thirty seven 0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:40.960 federal counts. 0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:42.680 And folks, let me tell you something. 0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:48.919 This media cycle, the fucking wall to wall coverage, this 0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:51.960 drone footage showing a twenty car motorcade. 0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:52.919 Nobody needs this. 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:57.280 Ship and cable news and all of the other mainstream 0:00:57.320 --> 0:01:02.880 news outlets have learned absolutely fucking nothing. Yes, is this historic, Sure, 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:07.760 it absolutely is. But let us understand the reality and 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:11.240 gravity of this situation that these news stations are not covering, 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:17.240 which is that Donald Trump continues to use his fake ass, 0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:21.200 broke ass Twitter in order to rile up people who 0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:24.040 didn't show up for him. Right, because this isn't a 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:29.000 January sixth event. They were able to have January sixth 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:32.840 happen because whiteness protects whiteness. And even though these people 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:37.400 were organizing out in broad fucking daylight on every single 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:41.440 social media platform. You know, Trump was in charge at 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:43.560 that time, so he was the one that could give 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:47.520 the order to put out, you know, barricades, to get prepared. 0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:50.760 But you know what, the city of DC was caught 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:54.840 flat footed. The federal government was being run by the insurrector, 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:57.880 insurrectionists in chief, and he was able to tell people 0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:01.240 that their votes were stolen. You don't get the same 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:05.200 fucking energy when it is about you hiding documents in 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:09.000 your fucking home that had you just returned them when 0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:11.400 they were asked for, we wouldn't have even been in 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:15.040 this situation. The Department of Justice gave this motherfucker so 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:19.000 many opportunities and chances to do the right things over 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:21.720 the last two and a half years since he's left office, 0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:24.360 and you know what, at every single fucking turn, Donald 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.040 Trump said, now I'm good. I'm a fucking criminal. And 0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:28.960 not only am I going to hide stuff from the DOJ, 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:31.720 I'm going to hide stuff from my own fucking lawyers. 0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:36.560 So the issue that we have rights. As Donald Trump 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:41.240 is now back to his regular scheduled programming of lying, 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:46.360 inciting violence, and fundraising off of white grievance. Here's what 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:52.680 transpired as as I'm sure many of you know his lawyers, 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:57.560 which he was represented by, Todd Blanche, entered a plea 0:02:57.600 --> 0:03:01.839 of not guilty, and as a matter of fact, Todd 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:05.440 Blanche said this quote, we most certainly enter a plea 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:09.959 if not guilty. Okay, we all saw the boxes, sir. 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:13.720 We all know that there were the word classified was 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:16.480 fucking printed on them, that were strewn across the floor 0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:19.320 and inside of that Takias bathroom and on top of 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:20.480 that Takias stage. 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:21.120 But got it. 0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:24.800 The reality is I want you to understand too, that 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:28.240 the pushback that Republicans are having is by calling this 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:31.000 a witch hunt, saying that it's politically motivated. But again, 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:34.119 no reporters are actually saying. Do you think so if 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:37.760 this were Hillary Clinton, if this were Barack Obama, if 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.320 this were Bill Clinton, if this were any other Democrat, 0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:43.240 y'all wouldn't be up in arms right that you think 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:47.640 that it's okay that Donald Trump had nuclear secrets and 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.920 military plans strown about for any taxi as motherfucker to 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.680 walk in mar Lago, any you know, member of some 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.920 wedding party to just stumble into this bathroom and be 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.400 able to see, Oh well, I guess that's where Iran 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.280 is going to be attacked. Really, you think that that's 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.960 a good idea for our military and shows the safety 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.960 and security of our military and our treasured secrets to 0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:14.200 our allies. You think that if I'm in the European Alliance, 0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:16.440 if I'm in these other spaces, that I'm looking at 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:19.719 the United States right now and saying, yeah, they seem 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.640 fucking unstable. They don't really have their shit together. I 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:24.960 think we're gonna have to figure out how we operate 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:30.800 outside of going with and looking towards the United States 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.200 here because they don't really know what they're doing. You 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.520 all think that that's good, that's a good look, But 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.440 I mean, that's what journalism would do. But that's clearly 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:42.919 not where we are. Cable news is in the entertainment business, 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:46.680 right They are in the ratings business right now. So 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:50.600 here is what the New York Times reported, and I 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:56.720 will read. Magistrate Judge Jonathan Goodman, who oversaw the hearing, 0:04:57.000 --> 0:05:00.640 ordered mister Trump not to discuss the case with his valet, 0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:05.320 who is also being charged with federal crimes, mister Nauda, 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.080 or any witnesses. The judge said he understood that the 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.400 two men must speak on a daily basis, but said 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.760 anything related to the case must go through lawyers. 0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:16.720 Hey, let's see a show. 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:19.360 Of hands, virtual hands right now to how many people 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:21.560 think that Donald Trump is gonna shut the fuck up? 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:24.480 Right? Even if shutting the fucked up. 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.480 Would give him tens of millions of dollars a day 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:29.839 in his bank account, that motherfucker wouldn't be able to 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:33.719 do it. So I'm pretty sure that this was just 0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:35.839 said to be said, but we know it's not going 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:40.840 to be followed. Mister Trump was represented in court by 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:46.760 Christopher M. Keith, a former Florida Solicitor General, and mister Blanche, 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:50.360 a prominent New York defense lawyer. His legal team has 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:53.200 been in flux, which many of you know and has 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.760 been reported here since two of the lawyers representing him 0:05:56.839 --> 0:06:03.200 have resigned shortly after the indictment was made public. Mister Smith, 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:09.920 Jack Smith, the Special Counsel, also attended the hearing. The case, 0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:13.720 as we know, has been assigned to Aileen Cannon. And 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.520 if you've been watching the news, staying up to date 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:19.359 on Twitter, and listening to this show, you know that 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.640 Judge Aileen Cannon is not even held in high regard 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:25.800 by her own fucking colleagues. Uh. If you remember, the 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:32.640 Eleventh Circuit Court basically admonished her publicly, basically called her 0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:37.120 a fucking dummy for the decisions that she made during 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:42.120 the initiation of the document's case. Uh, and said that 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.560 she was making decisions that were well outside the rule 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:50.120 of law and that it was egregious. Right, So we're 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:53.440 gonna continue to watch this space. Obviously, the Slate article 0:06:54.240 --> 0:07:01.760 that I read yesterday was with regard to her refusal. 0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:02.520 Right. 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.960 But you know, here's the thing about the United States 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:10.040 and our judicial system is that pretty much these motherfuckers 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:14.280 in black robes are I guess, kings, right, kings and 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.920 queens that can do whatever it is that they want. 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:21.080 There is really no check and balance at all. So 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:25.760 Judge Aileen Cannon, who is ill equipped, as as some 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:30.480 said on on cable news, not intellectually up to the 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:36.840 task for this very important job, could recuse herself, could 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:39.560 take her name out of the out of the lights 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:42.160 and keep it pushing and be like, you know what, 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.320 I'm too involved, My name is too much here, I'm 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:48.040 under too much scrutiny, and I'm going to recuse myself. 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:50.640 But you know, up until this point, she has it, 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:53.280 and I'm sure she won't because she got that job 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:54.920 for this particular reason. 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:55.520 Right. 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:58.080 You know, I want folks to think about this, that 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:04.680 when presidents have the opportunity to instill federal judges, right, 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:09.480 and now we understand late, you know, better late than ever. 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:13.640 Now we understand exactly how important federal judges are. You see, 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:18.120 when most presidents and Republicans prior to Donald Trump were 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:21.640 placing federal judges, they were doing so not to cover 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:24.080 their own asses, do you know what I'm saying. Not 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.680 because they thought that at some point in time they 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:30.120 were going to be appearing before the judge. 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:30.520 Right. 0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:34.559 They were doing it more so on ideological realms and focuses. 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:39.400 But we had never really thought about judges impartiality until 0:08:39.480 --> 0:08:42.199 the Trump years. I really want us to understand that. Sure, 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:47.440 we've had conservative courts and liberal courts, and conservative judges 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:50.679 and more progressive judges, but the fact is that we 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:53.600 always held and maybe this is why they see and 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:59.720 have a God complex, we always held judges beyond reproach 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.280 right because they took an oath and they followed that oath. 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:05.880 But that's not the case anymore. 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.160 It's not where we have been in almost a decade 0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:14.000 now since Donald Trump came down that escalator. We're you know, 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:17.080 seven to eight years into this bitch, and know that, 0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:19.640 you know, Aileen kind of knows exactly why she was 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.680 put in that place, and so you know, she's pretty 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:28.680 much the Manchurian candidate, but a judge for Donald Trump. 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:32.000 And we will see and we will cover how this 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:37.160 plays out because frankly, Jack Smith called for a speedy trial. 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:40.640 And it would be normal that. 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:44.240 Within I think it was said sixty to seventy days 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:47.080 that an indictment comes down that the trial would begin, 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:52.079 which would put us around September. But we will see 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:55.280 if Judge Aileen Callen is going to play politics, and 0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:58.200 we will see if the Department of Justice, because of 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:02.679 the safety of our were international secrets, because of the 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:07.040 sensitive time frame that we're working in, actually decide to appeal. 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:12.320 Trump left the court and you know, did what he does, 0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:17.040 which is he's going back to do a fundraiser at Bedminster. 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.319 You know, this is what was said about the media coverage, 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:26.480 the wall to wall media coverage. 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:26.920 Quote. 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:31.160 Whenever politics and law clash, there's always a tension because 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:35.000 they they are both places where fighting takes place. This 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:39.439 is John Dickerson of CBS said from a makeshift balcony. 0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:44.280 Politics is the fighting of the barroom, and the law 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.319 is more like a boxing match. 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:48.480 There are some rules. 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:54.640 Fox did broadcast live images of a person the network's 0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:59.760 anchors described as Milania, the former First Lady, though within 0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:01.920 a few minutes the network said it was in fact 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.840 not her. A day like this, with so many comings 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:09.040 and goings, it's easy to mistake people from a distance. 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.440 Sure it is, because you wanted to pretend that Milania 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:14.439 Trump is going to stand by her man the bitch 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:17.240 wouldn't even hold his hand when he was president of 0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:23.040 the United States, and so many embarrassing moments. You know, folks, 0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:29.559 I will say this that we are living in unprecedented times. 0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:32.480 And I know I say this over and over and 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:40.200 over again because it's pretty wild. It's really wild where 0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:44.959 we are. It's wild that Republicans, even with this forty 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:49.760 nine page indictment that reads so very clearly that they 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.840 don't care, right that they don't care that Donald Trump 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.439 is a criminal. They don't care that he was potentially 0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:58.320 holding on to hundreds of boxes in order to be 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.240 able to sell sensitive information to our enemies. He does, 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:05.920 they don't care. Right as I'm recording this, Senator JD. 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:09.240 Vance says he will put a procedural hold on Justice 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:13.360 Department nominees in response to the prosecution of former President 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:16.680 Trump and my friend aim And Mohedeen, a host of 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:20.120 Amen on MSNBC says, quote, tell me more about how 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:29.360 Democrats are weaponizing government. It is really important. And I 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:34.560 will agree with my friend Joyce White Vance, with former 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:38.800 federal prosecutor, I will agree with her when she has 0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:42.640 said that it is essential that there be cameras in 0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:50.600 the courts or we're just advancing the cult. Because what 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:57.960 it was said in a in another tweet, this was 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:02.160 a never before seen arrest. This is Michael Beschlos. This 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.080 was a never before seen arrest of an ex president 0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:09.120 on grave federal criminal charges. And because we and our 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.400 free press have been barred from watching and hearing in 0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:15.640 real time, the accused man managed to make it look 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:24.000 like a triumphant motorcade arrival. And you know it is. 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:31.600 It's so crazy, the clear distinctions between what is happening 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:36.120 on Earth one and what is taking place on Earth two. 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:43.679 And when you hear speaker McCarthy, for instance, say well, 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:48.920 you know, mister speaker McCarthy, do you think that it's 0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:52.760 a secure location to have, you know, classified documents in 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:56.199 a bathroom? Will? I guess it's just as secure as 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:59.240 having them in a garage. Well, at least the bathroom 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:01.200 can be locked. Are you fucking dumb? 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:02.920 Are you dumb? 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:08.720 Right? Like? That is really the question to Republicans, And 0:14:08.800 --> 0:14:13.440 I mean it with total and complete disrespect, because here's 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:18.160 the thing. Mike Pence also had classified documents. We know 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.760 that President Biden had classified documents. You know. The difference 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:25.080 between the two of them and Donald Trump is that 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:28.560 when those documents were found, they turned them over to 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.840 the Department of Justice, They opened up their homes willingly 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:35.640 and said, go at it right, it's yours. This was 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.960 actually and obviously a mix up. Donald Trump had two 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:42.600 and a half fucking years to return this critical information 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:47.080 to its proper owners and chose not to. But this 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:50.360 Republican cult is continuing to do what they've been do 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.000 what they've been doing, which is step and fetch it 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:54.120 for Donald Trump. 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:55.160 Right. 0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:58.880 They don't care about the truth. They don't care about 0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:02.240 him being a sexual abuser, a sexual assaulter. They don't 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:03.960 care about him being a liar. 0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:05.280 They don't care. 0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:09.280 About him potentially selling secrets and making money off of 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:12.120 the secrets that he was privy to as president of 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:16.040 the United States. They don't care about anything. Again, Donald 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:20.200 Trump could walk out and shoot somebody, shoot several people, 0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:22.920 and they would rally to his defense and say that 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:24.040 he feared for his life. 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:24.840 Right. 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:28.480 We're not going to get back the thirty percent of 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:34.520 the population, including those members of Congress, who are all 0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:37.640 in it for Donald Trump. It is going to be 0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:41.400 up to the seventy percent of us, write the sane 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:45.680 seventy percent, to say, oh fucking hell no, not in 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:51.200 our country, not in our democracy, no goddamn way. Right, 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.760 And until we start moving and marching and acting as 0:15:54.800 --> 0:16:01.040 a collective right, as an actual new American majority, Right, 0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:06.400 we're not going to move the needle here. And we're 0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:11.120 gonna continue these war of words. Right while these motherfuckers 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:13.920 want to use violent language on their broke ass social 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:16.960 media platforms, why they want to post pictures with their 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.800 ar fifteens, It is going to be up to the 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:23.760 seventy percent of us to save our democracy. 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:26.520 Not one community, not one person, not one. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:31.040 Constituency, but all of us from the grips the clause 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:39.320 of this Republican white supremacist cult. You know, folks, we 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:42.840 are just in a wild place, you know. And I 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:46.000 think that it is really important to take stock of 0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:50.040 this moment. I think that it's really important to understand 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:56.600 what each and every person's responsibility is into telling the truth, 0:16:56.720 --> 0:17:00.520 standing in the truth, and standing with those who's lives 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:05.399 are on the line right now. Switching gears off of Trump. 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:07.639 And obviously we will continue to talk about it, but 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:10.920 you know, I don't need to talk about Trump all 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:14.920 day every day, but I want to bring this up 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:20.000 to your attention as well. The New Republic is reporting 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:27.000 that Starbucks. Starbucks has banned Pride decorations in its stores 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:33.520 halfway through Pride Month. The company workers' union revealed this week. 0:17:34.320 --> 0:17:38.879 And here's what I tweeted in response to that is 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:42.360 that giving into right wing terrorists shows us exactly what 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:47.240 your company values. Understand your capitulation to these anti LGBTQ 0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:51.159 plus folks will cost you. You've been notified. And I 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:55.840 say this in you know, in real, real ways that 0:17:56.040 --> 0:18:03.640 it is incredibly important for these companies to be boycotted 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:08.679 right for them to hear from people within the LGBTQ 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.560 plus community, those that are allies, those that are progressives, 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:16.520 to understand that the actions that you were taking to 0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:20.600 become beholden to a small group of terrorists is going 0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:23.400 to cost you. Because I will tell you this, Like one, 0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:27.159 I don't love Starbucks coffee nowhere. I don't think that 0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:31.880 it's great, uh and it is oftentimes a last motherfucking resort. 0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:36.200 But I'm gonna let Starbucks know exactly what I think 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:39.280 about them. I mean, on top of the fact that, 0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:42.399 you know, the hell that has been brought down on 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:46.760 those trying to unionize to have safe working conditions. We've 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:50.680 had those leaders on this very show. So you know, folks, 0:18:50.760 --> 0:18:53.840 if you're looking to have your coffee needs met, go 0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:59.640 to a local place, right, support local businesses, support local 0:18:59.640 --> 0:19:03.919 outfit It's better yet, make your coffee at home and 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:07.680 save yourself the seven or eight dollars because Starbucks ain't it. 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:13.920 You know, Starbucks was a company that had revolutionized how 0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:19.320 companies care for and look after their staff. But the 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:22.960 bigger that they got, the farther that they moved from 0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:26.680 what was initially their mission. What set them aside from 0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:30.840 everyone else. This similarly with Target, Target was all in 0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:36.520 right for communities, for all for inclusivity because they recognized 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:40.080 that there was money right in being inclusive and being 0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:43.080 progressive and being thoughtful, even though we know that Target 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:46.400 was also giving money to Republican packs. So I think 0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:49.760 that it's really important, dear friends, for us to pay 0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:53.760 attention to where we put our money, for us to 0:19:53.960 --> 0:20:01.280 pay attention to what is important, what is necess what matters, 0:20:01.760 --> 0:20:04.520 and what matters in this moment now more than anything else, 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.280 is one that we are all taking very good care 0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:11.720 of ourselves and remaining rooted, because as this storm continues 0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:16.080 to blow and take hold, we need to be as 0:20:16.160 --> 0:20:23.399 rooted and as balanced and as spiritually, physically and emotionally well. 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:26.080 As we can possibly be. 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:33.479 That means, you know, meditation, workouts, time and nature, filling 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:36.040 our bodies and our minds with things that fill our 0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:40.159 hearts and lift our spirits. It also means if you 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:45.760 have the ability to provide resources to give to local 0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:48.439 organizations that are on the front lines, whether they be 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:56.480 LGBTQ organizations, women's organizations, black social justice organizations, Latin x 0:20:58.080 --> 0:21:04.080 Asian organization whose lives and livelihoods are on the line 0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:07.440 with each and every election that passes, right, think about that. 0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:10.560 If you're not concerned about whether your rights are going 0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:12.560 to be taken away or whether you're going to be 0:21:12.600 --> 0:21:16.040 protected by a certain administration every two and four years, 0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:19.280 then you are part of a privileged class, right, and 0:21:19.320 --> 0:21:22.159 you need to think about how you are best utilizing 0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:26.520 your privilege to advance the health and well being of 0:21:26.560 --> 0:21:32.440 those that are often marginalized and oppressed. Right, Like, what 0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:34.400 are you doing on a daily basis? 0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:35.760 Is you know? 0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:39.919 Is it volunteering? Is it sharing content? Is it you know, 0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:43.360 giving a little bit of money?
